I'm Lori Siegel, and this is mostly human, a tech podcast through a human lens.
This week, an interview with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.
I think society is going to decide that creators of AI products bear a tremendous amount of responsibility to the products we put out in the world.
An in-depth conversation with a man who's shaping our future.
My highest order bit is to not destroy the world with AI.

Ready for a different take on Formula One?
further than No Grip, a new podcast tackling the culture of motor racing's most coveted series.
Join me, Lily Herman, as we dive into the under-explored pockets of F-1, including the story
of the woman who last participated in a Formula One race weekend, the recent uptick in F-1 romance novels
and plenty of mishap scandals and sagas that have made Formula One a delightful, decadent dumpster fire
for more than 75 years.

Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, host of the On Purpose podcast.
My latest episode is with Noah Kahn,
the singer-songwriter behind the multi-platinum global hit stick season

Getting the talk about this is not common for me.
Right now I need it more than ever.

In 2023, Bachelor star Clayton Eckerd was accused of fathering twins.
But the pregnancy appeared to be a hoax.
You doctored this particular test twice, Ms. Owens, correct?
I doctored the test ones.
It took an army of internet detectives to uncover a disturbing pattern.
Two more men who'd been through the same thing.
Greg, a lesbian.
Michael Marantini.
My mind was blown.
I'm Stephanie Young.
This is love trapped.
Laura, Scottsdale Police.
As the season continues, Laura Owens finally faces consequences.

Welcome to This Is Important, a production of IHeart Radio, the show where we only talk about what is most obviously very crucially important.
Today on This Is Important, when did it get cool to suddenly love cops?
And I like to pivot from Manosphere.
to breaking down the national anthem.
I like Chief in the Kind.
Let's go.
I'm feeling good.
That shit's important.
Kumbaya.
Everybody's coming.
Kumbaya.
Dude, is Kumbaya my dad?
What is kumbaya?
It's got to be.
Yeah, it was him on the cruise.
Kumbaya.
Yeah, I remember that.
I think I flagged that.
That's my new favorite.
Actually saying Kumbaya.
Yeah, that's my new favorite drop, I think.
Oh, hit me with that again.
Kumbaya.
Kumbaya.
Why does he sound like a 90, in the 90s, disjockey?
Like, kumbaya, let's see those titties, kumbaya.
Should he have a podcast?
Are we missing out on a podcast that could be maybe, I think Joe Rogan hear your dad here?
Kumbaya.
Yeah, I bet Joe Rogan would invite my dad on.
before he'd invite me on.
Absolutely.
That goes without saying, dude, no shade.
There's no shade?
That would be huge.
But I'm saying having his own podcast.
That would be sweet.
Where he's interviewing politicians and people about aliens.
But my dad is a man of few words.
I mean, you know my dad.
That's the best part.
At the end of somebody talking for 20 minutes, he just goes,
that's pretty fucked up.
Brought you by hymns.
I know.
I remember when I'm,
was telling him about you guys are i mean you guys remember when they told me that i had stiff person
syndrome and then i might be dying and uh you wouldn't probably going to i wouldn't shut up about it
and i was going to my body was going to get so tight that my heart would stop beating and i would
die um in excruciating pain coomba and they told me that and i'm and i'm telling my father that
and his words of incur i guess not encouragement but like solace was jesus
that fucking sucks.
And I'm like, yeah, dude.
Hey, man, that sums it up.
But that's what you want.
That's a man response.
That sums it up.
Yeah, man.
He's right.
Huh, sucks to be you.
That fucking sucks.
Yeah.
Honestly, that fucking sucks.
Because it's not a pity party.
I love that.
It's like, all right, we still go into Sizzler?
Yeah.
Are you going to pick yourself up by your bootstraps or what?
Jesus.
I hope mom's making gullible.
Glash for dinner.
What is gouache?
Well, you know what they say?
Grass is always greener.
Dude, the amount of food that only your parents make that I've been eating the last two months
because my parents are now living here.
My dad got a new lung.
I don't know if you talked about this on the podcast.
Yes, we touched upon it.
That was very kumbaya.
Yeah, very kumbaya.
So he's a brand new freshie.
He's got a fresh baby.
How's it holding up?
How's it holding up?
So far so good.
Is he going around the house, like, belting out songs and shit?
No, he's not.
Okay.
Yeah, he's doing the Ace Ventura sliding door shit.
Like, ro!
Ro!
Raw!
The hills are alive!
He is walking.
He's doing a lot of laps.
But he's finally going to come down south and be at the beach.
I'm going to come.
Pretty exciting, pretty exciting news.
That's great stuff, dude.
Yeah.
Good, good, great.
And he was up north in the Hollywood Los Angeles area.
In the Hollywood.
In proxious.
of the hospital in case the lung rejected his body.
Yeah.
And by the way, he still has to go every week for the next three months or so.
Months.
And it goes down to once a month.
It's pretty well.
And what's the deal?
Will he ever smoke weed again?
No, dude.
That's the thing.
That's what fucking sucks.
Koon, not kumbaya.
Worth it?
Kumbaya.
And they go, he goes, well, can I eat it?
Oh, yeah.
And they go.
Work around.
And we all were like, yeah, I'm sure he can.
eat it. And they said, no, you can't.
Because. What? Yes.
Which fucking threw him for a loop.
But only because they're like testing everything in his body so every week.
So anything could like throw it off. And then they would have to change medications that
maybe they shouldn't change.
This sounds like the same thing that you had to go through where it's like we don't need to
be fighting other poisons. We need to see what's going on with the body.
Yes. Somebody help me. Exactly. So then they, so then what they're going to do,
they said
what we can do
in about two months
is you would have to do it every day
at the same time and take the
exact same dose.
And he goes, oh, I can do that.
So he's just going to be
high as a fucking kite.
I love it. I got the time.
Mission accepted.
420, baby.
Sit here. 420 every day.
It's coming up. It's coming up next week.
I love the idea of
like an alarm going off.
every day at 420 and him just being like, it's time.
It's time.
It's time.
And then I go, well, what amount are you taking?
Because I do edibles at night.
You know, I drink my cans, my C-A-N-N.
Hey, bad boy, the podcast.
That a boy.
And I'll do maybe five, ten milligrams, you know, feeling good.
And I'm feeling good.
And my dad goes, Jesus Christ.
And I go, whoa, what?
And he goes, I wouldn't feel shit.
I don't get, dad.
You're not just trying to get food.
fucked up and he goes, I am.
And I go, okay, Deb, this is a dose
that you have to pick that you're going
to be on every day. Because you
can't go higher or lower because it has to be the same.
That's a tough call.
And he goes, 40.
40. You're going to do 40 milligrams
every day. 40 is a lot.
40 is a lot. That's exactly. And he goes,
nope, 40. And I'm like,
maybe, maybe let's
just do 10. And he's done
40 before with any sort of consistency?
Is that is no, is that is
Greg?
I, no.
He doesn't even like edibles.
He likes smoking weed.
Right.
I like chief in the kind.
But he's done five before and he's like, this fucking sucks.
I can't feel shit.
So now he's gonna do 40.
So we'll get down off the roof, dad, and let's just talk about it.
Would you rather not feel it or be really fucked up every day?
Yeah, you're right.
That's the question.
What's the question?
Like, do you want a low dose or do you want a high dose?
Oh, like underdo it.
Yes.
You want a high dog.
I think you want a high dog.
Because it has to be the same.
It has to be the same.
It's really cool.
Like right out the gate, the first day he does 40, he's like butt naked running through the street.
And like, we sealed the fate, brother.
He's got to do 40 tomorrow.
He has to do this again.
I realize we had to call police, but it's happening again, everybody.
This is 40.
And what's so funny about us talking about this is there's going to be fans that are going to crawl into Blake's DMs that are going to be like,
40 you fucking pussy i do a hundred or whatever insane number no yeah that's an insane number listen if you're
doing over 50 every day of your what you want to call life your existence we're calling in it
existence i feel like shit's not going great what are you what are you escaping your band better
be good you're absolutely i and i the way i tried to explain it to my dad i'm like dad that's like
Don't you just want to, let's say it's like a beer.
So you do 10, that's like, I would say under 5 milligrams is like one beer.
So 10 is like two beers.
15, maybe that's three or four beers, right?
Okay, now we're cooking.
Now I'm feeling good.
Now I'm feeling good.
So you want to do 40.
40.
Like drink a 40?
Yeah.
No.
More than a 40.
If we're doing the math here.
Yeah, there'd be like eight to 10 beers that he's drinking every night.
I'm like, you're a fucking alcoholic.
How many beers are in a 40?
Well, 40 is 40 ounces and a beer is 12, honey.
40 ounces and a beer is...
And I'm doing quick math, and so it's not even four.
Oh, because a beer has, what, 12 fluid ounces?
And if you're just tuning in...
Oh, up, Netflix just said, we're done here.
They said if these guys are real party animals,
they better know their fluid ounces.
Fuck it!
This thing fucking sucks!
Okay, well, I like that.
I feel like if you're doing like 40...
What are we called?
Milligrams of weed, edibles.
Oh.
He doesn't even know milligrams.
Every fan just went, like a single tear just went down so many faces.
Oh, the bitch.
Is that us who said Native American tear?
Yes, absolutely.
Real tears.
We've said that.
Real tears, like, Native American tears.
You're like, at that point, if you're taking that much weed every day,
is it like you're living in, like, Battlefield Earth, the movie?
Like, everybody you look at looks like John Travolta with, like, the...
I'll let you understand.
answer your own question.
Because Adam, I don't know if you have the answer to it.
I have taken 40 milligrams before.
Yes.
And did you sprout dreadlocks made of cable?
And in fact, I think it was...
Feed them the rats.
It was, I did a, it wasn't 40 milligrams.
It was 25 milligrams.
And I took, it was a coffee weed drink.
Upper and down.
And I thought it was, I thought it was,
I thought it was a regular amount.
It was like 25 or 30.
It was something a lot.
And I fucking pounded it.
And then I was going to a show.
I had a show in Wyoming.
Oh, cute.
I drank it on the way.
And then all of a sudden it kicks in, like, as I'm going on stage, I'm like, oh, fuck.
I start to do my act.
It was going great.
Everything was going A-OK.
I sort of just went on auto.
pilot. I'm like just doing my jokes.
And then the...
I like how you say, I'm doing my jokes.
Which entail you doing this with your head.
You weren't even speaking. You were just doing this.
I'm doing comedy.
No, it was just like...
It wasn't even like me doing it.
It was just like I clicked on the autopilot and my brain was going, this is crazy, but I'm still
doing...
I'm still doing my whole act.
And then...
How do you wave?
The sound goes out and they can't hear me.
Wait, in on the microphone or in your head?
On the microphone.
Okay.
Oh, in the microphone.
Okay.
And all of a sudden, they're like,
the sounds out, the sounds out.
And so they couldn't hear me.
And then I'm like, fucking what to do.
And it was a big show.
There was like 4,000 people there.
Holy shit.
And I go, I just started to sing the national anthem.
Sure.
That was my go-to.
I just started to sing the national anthem.
And the whole crowd sang the national anthem with me.
And somehow I remembered all of the words to the national anthem.
Oh, no.
Please don't stop the music
That is crazy
Because I was fucking
High as a kite
It just came back to me
Have you saying it before somewhere?
I did it at a Dodger game
Yeah
And this is after the Dodger game
So it was fresh in your recall reserves
I guess so
Well when Adam gets super stoned
He retreats into the most patriotic person
Of all time
Yeah
That is his true self
Is Captain America
That is me
Chris Evans step out
Is it Chris Evans?
You know it really sucks
and it bothers me that when you see now someone with like an American flag shirt or a hat,
it no longer just means patriotic.
It means like they're super pro ice.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm a dude.
You know what I mean?
You can't just rock an American flag.
And by the way, I love American flags.
Thank you.
You've seen my place in L.A.
It has a giant 9 by 13 American flag.
It's a American flag rap, isn't it?
Your house?
Yeah.
You got it wrapped by the fucking Orange Coast shoppers guys.
It's a 9 by 13 American flag.
I love American flags in America.
Yeah.
I wanted to hang one in my front yard.
And I think I found one in our garage.
Well, you can hang a flag.
I have one hanging out there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I think I think I'm going to.
Okay.
Yeah.
And then I'm also going to put like an NRA sticker in the window too.
Yeah.
Just let them know.
Just so people don't like roll up.
to the crib. I'm like, I'll shoot you.
That's actually really smart. What a trash. That's really smart.
Oh, definitely get the little dormant that says like nothing in this house is worth dying for.
That one's really good. That's a good one. That's a really good. And then it's like a hand with a gun.
It's fucking cool. That's a good one, dude. Yeah.
How about go ahead take the package and make my day and then quote the next dirty hairy movie that should be made by Netflix?
I feel like that's a lot of. It's like a really long. It goes all.
all the way from the door to the street.
Yeah, I feel like that's too many words.
I feel like they're just taking the package and going at that point.
They're not going to stick around.
No, because here's the thing.
They're busy reading it.
Oh, shit.
I'm busy loading.
I'm putting bullet after bullet into a...
That's true.
You have a home alone.
It is weird that now, like...
Which, by the way, I'm not against cops.
I think, yeah, we should have police.
When people were, like, defund the police, I'm like,
that seems crazy.
We for sure need police.
But now it's like...
Go ahead and cook.
It's patriotic or like cool to be super pro police.
Huh.
It's like the blue lines matter and all that shit.
Lives.
What year is it?
Lives.
The blue line.
Yeah, yeah.
The blue line.
I see the blue line everywhere.
That's blue lives matter.
But it's blue lives matter.
And the blue line is...
The blue line is...
Blake shows us because...
Here you go.
I'm just saying why did suddenly it become cool to be super pro cops?
It's always been...
cool. Did you miss
like two years of the news?
They tried to abolish police.
It's science. Yeah, man. And then the police had to go,
hey, guess what? We kind of have a really difficult, weird job.
Well, they for sure. Absolutely, there are some fucking morons who take advantage of what they're
capable of and how they carry a fucking gun and they abuse their powers.
But they had to be like, we're also out there kind of putting our lives in danger to keep the streets
clean, blah, blah, blah.
Yeah, but still, you can't be, you can't be two pro cops.
Hey.
Or two anti-cops.
It's the challenge of society, Adam.
It's the challenge of society.
We can't all be one thing.
We're a very, we're so divided.
You have to really pick sides now, but.
I was divided.
It's so annoying, dude.
It's got to be a little bit of everything, guys.
It's so annoying.
You know what sucks?
It's getting pulled over.
Keep going, Blake.
A little bit of everything.
Yeah, okay.
Go ahead.
You're getting pulled over.
Getting pulled over.
Oh, yeah.
Guess what happened the other day to me?
Oh, dear.
Got pulled over.
Goodbye.
What happened.
Tell me what the violation was.
Driving with your titty's out.
Cumbaya.
It was a speeding ticket, and guess what happened?
You talked your way out of it.
You said, got out of it, baby.
You slurped.
Every time.
Got out of it.
How'd you do it?
He just came up to me.
He was like, why are you speeding?
And I said, literally, I have no, no, I said, I have no good reason.
I am sorry.
I shouldn't be speeding like this.
This is my neighborhood.
Please don't stop the music.
I shouldn't be speeding like this.
And he goes, well, we're going to let you off with the warning.
You need another four inches.
I'm like, all right, okay, great.
Wow.
Yeah.
Must be nice.
So I guess I, and then I said, Blue Lives Matter.
And he's like, what?
And I go, I don't know.
I thought you would like for me to say that.
We're done?
Are we done here?
I don't know.
Are we done here?
I don't know.
Should I get a tattoo or something now?
He's like, no, you're taking it too far.
It was just, I'm just kind of doing a nice thing.
But congrats.
Every time I think of that, I think of Fargo, where he's like, or we could just take care of it right
here in Brainer.
And he's like holding the money out of the wallet.
And then the guy's like, yes.
I don't remember Fargo that well.
Rewatch Fargo, dude.
Absolute banger.
You know, I really like that show.
Is that a show still around?
Yeah.
Shows not around anymore.
Because the dude who made it is now making the aliens show.
Did they only do like two seasons?
No, Fargo had like four or five seasons.
Yeah, Fargo rocked.
All of them were like extraordinary.
And then he decided to go make that alien show.
Is anyone watching the alien show?
I have a few friends who are watching it.
I don't know, but I heard it's out of this world.
Yeah, they said it was really good.
Okay.
Don't give it.
Yes, points.
No.
No.
What the fuck are we doing now?
That gets points.
Well, it was a pun.
The fuck are we doing, dude.
It was a pun of sorts.
Adam, come on, just give that show some space.
Yes, points.
Look, I understand if it's not in your orbit.
Oh.
Yes, points.
This is a funny podcast, though.
But I did, no, but I did a really funny, dude.
But they did a.
they did, like, um, were they interview
people on entertainment tonight or
E.T.
Yes, points!
I hate this.
Did you like how I reset, though, and you guys thought I was moving?
No, I knew you were coming back.
I didn't. I saw the twinkle in your eyes.
Oh, boy. You knew? That makes you, Mac, and me.
No.
Yeah, don't give that one to him.
No. Yeah, don't give that to it.
Oh, do you got...
Gumaya.
I don't know if any of you are noticing at home, my, my, my...
poor camera quality.
I am in...
Yeah, you guys, when you travel,
why don't you just take the camera with?
I didn't want to say.
Just take the camera with.
Hey, Adam, when you travel and bring a camera with,
let me know.
Yeah, man.
I will. I'm going to.
Yeah, just let me know.
Just let me know.
And you won't even know
because the camera will be set up
and it'll look fresh and good.
I'm asking you to let me know.
And I will.
I'm pretty excited.
I hope you guys are going to let me eat on air
because I have a very special...
Yo, do you have a...
plastic bag in camera?
What's happening?
In frame.
We're on Netflix now.
You've got to treat it with respect.
Okay.
Cheese zombies.
Okay.
Patty, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I have in my hands.
What is it?
Patty what?
Patty's original.
Patty's original.
Cheese zombie.
Concord California.
This is what it's all about, gentlemen.
Okay.
And I have a cheese zombie in my hand.
And would you describe what that is?
So here's the deal.
For you guys who don't know, like...
Yeah, which is everyone.
Everyone.
Where I grew up in Concord.
At school, there were these things called cheese zombies, which are basically buns.
I'm gonna go take a show.
Filled with, like, American cheese in the middle.
And a jalapeno.
We read the...
Well, that's a new flavor.
It was just me and cheese.
It's basically our runs up, right?
But...
What kind of meat?
What kind of meat?
How's the meat?
What is the...
Now you can get meat in them, but the original from school was no...
meat is just cheese in a bun.
Oh, okay. I like that.
But here's the deal. Now they have
brick and mortar
places. Okay. One is
Patty's original. So this is first
time talking. Dude, I was about to
say that. Why is talking so difficult
for you sometimes? When this is what
we do professionally. I've had 40 milligrams
of weed. I get it. Because this is forever.
He wants to do it right because this is forever.
Patti's original
is one of them, but then there's another guy
who claims he made up
cheese zombies and his story is called Rob Zombies.
Cheese Zombies. Oh, awful. Does Rob Zombie sign off on this?
Not that I know of. But this is a Paddy's original. I am not okay with that.
This is a Paddy's original. Ma'am.
Cheese Zombies, so shout out Concord, California. Actually, that looks pretty good.
So you're Patty's over Rob's? I've never been to Rob's, but Paddies is closest to my parents'
house, so I'm rolling with Paddy's. And you're obviously in a spare bedroom of your mom's house.
Yes. And what is the artwork? Her puzzle room. This is her puzzling room.
Oh, shit. Damn. Okay. Stack it. That's serious. You're a big puzzler yourself. Is that a puzzle behind you? Is that puzzle pieces?
No, I believe that is probably some artwork picked up from like Hobby Lobby. Oh my God.
Jesus. Dude, we're on Netflix. Come on. Jesus Christ.
Why hasn't a woman formally participated in a Formula One race weekend in over a decade? Think about how many skills they have to develop at
such a young age.
What can we learn from all of the new F1 romance novels suddenly popping up every year?
He still smelled of podium champagne and expensive friction.
And how did a 2023 event called Wagageddon change the paddock forever?
That day is just seared into my memory.
I'm culture writer and F1 expert Lily Herman, and these are just a few of the questions I'm tackling on no grip.
a Formula One culture podcast that dives into the under-explored pockets of the sport.
In each episode, a different guest and I will go deeper into the wacky mishap, scandals and sagas,
both on the track and far away from it, that have made F1 a delightful, decadent dumpster fire for more than 75 years.
Listen to no grip on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I'm Lori Siegel, a longtime tech journalist.
And consider my new podcast, mostly human, your bridge to the future.
Anyone can now be an entrepreneur, anyone can build an app, and it's very empowering.
Each week, I'll speak to the people building that future, and we're going to break down what all of this innovation actually means for you.
What I come to realize is that when people think that they're dating these AI companion, they're actually dating the companies that create this.
We're experiencing one of the greatest tech accelerations in human history, and let's be honest, that can be messy.
There's no playbook for what to do when an AI model hallucinates a story about you.
But it's my belief that we should all benefit from this moment.
Mostly Human will show you how.
My goal is to give you the playbook, so you can benefit.
The reason I say agency is because if we can give power back to people,
then I think that's probably the best thing we can do for your mental health.
Listen to Mostly Human on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you listen to your favorite shows.
Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, host of the On Purpose podcast.
My latest episode is with Noah Kahn,
the singer-songwriter behind the multi-platinum global hit,
Stick Season, and one of the biggest voices in music today.
Noah opens up about the pressure that followed his rapid success,
his struggles with mental health and body image,
and the fear of starting again after such a defining moment in his career.
It's easy to look at somebody and be like,
your life must be so sick.
Man, you have no clue.
talking about the mental illness stuff.
It used to be this thing that I was ashamed of.
I'm just now trying to unwind this idea
that I have to be unhealthy physically
or in pain in some emotional way in my life
to create good music.
If someone says that I did a good job,
I'm like, yeah, I'm good.
Someone says that I suck.

The family court hearings that followed
revealed glaring inconsistencies in her story.
This began a years-long court battle
to prove the truth.
You doctored this particular test twice in someone, correct?
I doctored the test once.
It took an army of internet detectives
to crack the case.
I wanted people to be able to see
what their tax dollars were being used for.
sunlight's the greatest disinfected.
They would uncover a disturbing pattern.
Two more men who'd been through the same thing.
Greg, the Westby and Michael Marantini.

If you don't mind, I'm going to just buy it into this cheese zombie.
I would love to show you guys what's in the middle.
Okay, so yeah, yeah, yeah.
The fact that Netflix is paying for us for this.
And look at that.
That is a cheese zombie.
That seems like too much bread per cheat.
Like, the ratio seems a little off.
It's really good, dude.
Well, I don't know.
How moist is the bread?
How good is the bread?
How moist is the bread?
It's fantastic.
Okay.
Okay, that's not answering the question.
Moist.
It's like, we just wanted to.
Imagine you're at Thanksgiving.
It's a delicious Thanksgiving roll filled with delicious.
Those are dry, aren't they?
Yeah.
Is it dry or moist?
Use your vocabulary here, Blake.
He's going to be like, it's fucking slizzer for whatever the fucking Bay language.
It's slizzards.
Yeah, it slaps.
Okay.
All right.
Dumb.
No, food doesn't slap.
Food doesn't slap.
Dude, you're 42 years old.
Blake, you're 42.
Food doesn't slap.
Food smacks.
And this is smacking.
Yeah, you're 42.
You know what smacks?
All right.
Ham's, baby.
Oh, yeah.
Everybody, put up what you're consuming right now.
Adam.
Fucking cherry.
Even you guys at home.
Oh, delicious.
Is that a zero cherry?
Oh, yeah.
Crack.
Somebody was trying to tell me that they thought that Coke Zero and Diet Coke
taste the same.
That is utter bullshit.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Coke Zero is infinitely better.
It's a sweeter taste.
It's superior.
It's superior.
As someone who's not...
Diet Coke tastes bad.
Right.
And Coke Zero just doesn't taste good.
Oh, right.
Okay.
Okay.
Like, Coke tastes good, but you can't drink it all the time because you don't want to die.
Like, listen, if you're listening to this, stop.
And all.
Drinking Coke every day, you're going to die.
You're going to die.
It's too good.
I don't give a thought.
I don't know.
In my algorithm, there's a guy that always pops up.
He's like, day in the life of a soda addict.
Have you seen this fucking guy?
No, that sounds terrible.
And he's like our age.
Young, cool, still hip, still with it.
Right.
Loves geese or goose.
Smacking and slapping.
But has a young family.
Has a young family and he's like, take the family to Disney World.
So you know I.
I got to bring my sodas.
And then it shows him, like, at a, like, Sam's Club.
Everywhere he travels, he has to go to Sam's Club and buys six dozen cases of different
sodas.
Oh, my God!
And then he's like, yeah, had 42 sodas today.
What?
How does he not have diabetes?
He will.
He will.
They're all Coke Zero and shit like that.
What about his teeth?
He'll die.
What's his tooth game?
I don't know what his tooth game.
I mean, they look fine.
but it's absurd.
I'm like, and he's like, I know this can't be good for my kidneys.
And you're like, yeah, I honestly don't even know what the kidneys do, but you're right.
It can't be good for them.
The kidneys have questions.
The kidneys are like, I'm sorry.
Do we need to have another meeting?
What is happening?
The kidneys clean everything, right?
No, no, no.
Or is that the liver.
The kidneys are experiencing a lifestyle that they're just like, what, what are we doing?
Yeah.
Why are we doing this?
They're like, why are we doing this?
And the guys like, we're doing it.
So there's this thing called clicks.
I'm on Instagram, I'm on TikTok.
I'm getting clicks.
Well, you're going to die.
We're going to shut down.
We're going to pick it.
That's the liver talking.
And the guy goes, I don't care.
Worth it.
Worth it.
Worth it.
Yeah, I'm providing for my family.
Fuck out.
He can't be making...
He should just do like we did.
Let a dog lick your butt hole for a job.
He can't be making enough money that it's worth it.
There's no way.
I mean...
Hey, but we're talking about it.
You know how like some of those only fan girls
where they're like make their butthole wink?
but they're making like $45 million a year and you're like...
I don't know what that is.
Yeah, like...
It is crazy.
Who would be an example of that?
I mean, isn't that what Bell Blue or Bonnie Blue?
What's her name?
Oh, yeah.
What do you rail the thousand guys into that?
I don't know.
I'm uneducated.
Isn't her name Bonnie Blue?
Isn't it Bonnie Blue?
It is.
It is.
But the fact that you said a different name and you're like,
Buffy Blue, buddy boo.
Bitty Biddy B'ee.
I don't know.
Is it Betty Boop?
Is it Betty Boop?
Is it Bonnie Blue?
I don't know.
I don't know who she is.
That's the girl who, like, does it with, like, a lot of guys, right?
She did it with a thousand guys in a day.
Yeah, it's cool you call fucking does it because you're, what, in sixth grade?
Well, I don't want to be crass.
Yeah, true.
That's one thing about, like...
I'm trying to bring some cheese zombies to this network.
I don't mean...
Is this the female who mated with upwards of 1,000 mates?
Yeah, she mates with, like, a thousand dudes or something.
Hey, Todd, give us her in.
And I give us some stats on Bonnie Blue.
We want to know some stats.
But what are you saying about these people who just make this money and how crazy it is?
I don't think we're still going to start talking about how she fucks.
The juice has to be worth the squeeze, right?
Literally.
Is she or I don't, there's another OnlyFans girl that I don't know.
I don't know Only Fans, but there's one that made like 50 something.
Dirt.
Is it Jenny from the block?
There's 50.
She made like 50 something.
million. Doing what? And I guess
she doesn't do like hardcore stuff and you're
like, what is that? Is that worth doing it then?
Let me just let me tell you this. Is that porno?
$150 million? Dude, if you do
if you make $50 million doing it for 12 months,
everyone should be trying this. Everyone should be trying this.
I like if Adams, what if Adam's new Netflix show instead of
is it cake? Is it porno? And it's just him watching
only thing. Assessing.
going, I don't know.
She's playing violin naked.
Wait, there is a dildo in the frame.
Is it porn?
The violin thing is a dildo.
Is it porn?
She keeps going back and forth and then like once into her mouth
and then back onto the thing and like playing it.
Her tongue flips out really quickly sometimes.
Yeah, is it porn?
Okay, so Bonnie Blue, her real name is Tia Bellinger.
Oh.
That's almost more porno than...
That seems like a porno-y-old.
name. Tia Bellinger, like a gun?
Loose, butthole.
Wow, Adams.
Blue Lives Matter.
Wendy Winchester.
Nice.
You know, like, I don't know.
Like, I feel like she could get like a little gun tattoo like right here, like a, like on a, like it's holstered.
Tina Glock.
I suck Glock.
I know.
Oh, I suck Glock.
Yeah.
That's a great.
That's worth a point.
That's points.
Well, she had sex with 100 and, or 1,000.
57 men in 12 hours last year making her the subject of months meeting attention, inspiring
similar events by like several other girls.
Inspiring similar events.
Yeah.
Other girls are like, what's a similar event?
1,058.
A similar event.
Isn't this the like thing where like some mom went and like pulled her son out of line?
She like heard about it and found out her son was there and went and like getting him out
line and was like,
Reggie.
With like a purse, old lady style.
You gotta get out of that line.
You have to get out of that line.
Gotcha bitch.
Unless you're number one.
Even number one.
No, no, no, no.
No, no, no.
You're on your flight back to her.
That's honorable.
You've landed in America already.
Before she's even finished.
Before she's done with a thousand.
No, you know.
You're like Elton John doing live aid.
I, you know what?
You're back.
I support her.
I think she's cool.
Okay, so she claims to earn up to
750,000 to 800,000 a month.
Oh, my God.
With some reports suggesting up to 2 million a month.
Everybody's coming.
Just from her only fans.
I mean...
Who is this? This is Bonnie Blue?
This is our girl, Bonnie Blue.
Everybody's coming.
I'm down for her.
No, I mean...
I would stop.
I would do it for a year.
Because, like, there's two ways to look at it.
There's two ways to look at it.
Okay. Give us the one and two.
Okay, let's hear.
Do it for a year, because then...
you're done and you've gotten the money.
Your body's in shambles.
But if you think about it, the videos out there, like those live on forever.
So you're, you are this person now.
Yeah.
So you might as well keep doing it and stacking the money.
But I would just, I'd do it for a year.
And then I would just do like real estate.
I would just get into real estate.
Because the whole time they're thinking like, well, she might fuck me if I buy this house.
You know what I mean?
Like maybe.
You're going to love this house.
Super spacious backyard.
You could fit up to 500 guys.
I'm not saying she's there.
I'm not saying she would, but that's what the guy would think if he's buying this house and is Bonnie Blue, and you're like, and it's a super expensive house.
I'm not, I'm saying like real estate like mini malls.
Like she's buying mini malls.
She's doing like, she's stacking paper here.
Oh.
Oh.
It's science.
Super spacious mini mall.
You can fit up to 1,000 people.
You can fit up to 1,000 people.
You could fit almost a thousand, 57 guys in there.
You could fit 2,000 men with raging hard cocks.
Yeah, I know.
It's just really bad for your body, probably.
Society in general that this is what's happening.
It's the absolute worst.
And what's the guy version of it?
Because it's not the Manistphere stuff.
That's different.
That's different than what this is.
Those guys aren't making.
Because they're not making shit.
They're just like, have you seen the, there's like, influencer houses,
but it's for sales bros.
And they go around,
it's,
I don't know why my algorithm feeds me this shit.
Just because I find it so funny and fascinated.
But it's just guys going around that are like,
they're all like 19.
And they're like,
what's up to say your name and say how much you've,
the highest you've made in one day.
And this is guys going like,
and I made $1,400.
And then like,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like, my name is Chadwick.
And I made,
$9,000.
And then you're like, oh, oh.
And then you turn around and see Bonnie Blue is like,
bitch, I make that shitting on some guy's chest.
I make $200 grand just like that.
That's probably, those are good.
Those are right.
Those numbers are, yeah.
Those are adding up.
Here's my question.
Do you guys think, and people who are in, they know,
are we in the manosphere?
Do you think we are part of the manosphere?
Us.
Are we part of the manosphere?
Good question.
Okay, you guys are going to have, what defines that?
I don't think so.
I think we are just on the, we're just on the peripheral.
I think we're just on the outside.
Peripheral.
Peripheral.
Dude, do I not say that word right?
Peripheral.
Peripheral?
Peripheral.
Peripheral.
Peripheral.
Here's what I'll ask.
Can you be self-aware?
and be in the manosphere?
I don't know too much about the manisphere,
but can you be self-aware?
Like, can you know?
Blake, you're not in it.
Yeah.
Out of my tea levels.
He's like, how could I even know?
I'm so manly and tough.
I'll let you know right now.
You're not in it, but.
Because I think it takes an ignorance.
Like, it seems like the manosphere from what I've gathered
are dudes who are drinking like guy poison.
Yeah, I mean, for sure they're all idiots,
But like,
Guy poison?
Yeah.
Yeah, what does that mean?
Like, jizz?
Like, come?
And what are you saying?
Well.
And we're back in the ban for you.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
No.
No.
I was just saying, like, they're drinking some, like, man Kool-Aid, like a superiority.
I think so, Blake.
I think so.
I think you're on to something.
Yeah, okay.
Well, I think some of them know that they are, like, like Andrew Tate or whatever.
That guy fucking, he knows that he.
This is the Bonnie Blue of men.
Yeah.
Andrew Tater, whatever his name is.
Actually, you may be right.
Well, he kind of fell off.
Who's the guy now who's...
Fell off.
He was trafficking people, dude.
I don't know.
Well, is he in prison?
That's called falling off.
That's called falling off.
No, when you go to prison, that's called falling.
Falling off, bro.
That's a hard fall off.
Dude, it sucked when Jeffrey Dahmer fell off.
They found all those bodies under his house and he fell off, dude.
Dude, he fell off.
The Dahmer was sick for him.
Big fall of.
You still is sick.
He's very sick.
Demented.
But he fell off.
Demented even.
Bro.
Fell.
No,
the clavicular is the guy now.
Oh, yeah.
I've just watched that interview
with Channel 5.
Yeah, I've been on.
Look, dude, here's what's
fascinating to me.
And I think that so much of what he says
is kind of based in
truth that we all know.
I'm not, I'm not, he.
Hang on.
What?
No, keep going.
Wow, dude.
Okay, oh, you think he's a...
A ludic.
Burying himself.
Hang on.
Okay.
I'm saying the things he drops
about, like, how better-looking people
do better in society.
Those are studies that have gone on forever.
And so he's just talking about people glowing up.
What's wild is that he's, for sure,
just a spectrum kid with, like, zero humanity.
Yeah.
And you just see the, like, ones and zeros brainworking.
And you're like,
this is how we get like concentration camps.
Because this guy works his way up to the top
and he's like, what if we just made them think
they were going to take showers
but they were going into gas chambers?
Oh my God. Right, right.
Like, he has that mentality where it's just like,
well, this is the fastest way to kill people.
Right. You're like, sociopath.
I was at the gym a few weeks ago.
In the shower. Don't go to shower.
I was at the gym.
It's not a real gym.
And I couldn't sleep.
And I woke up at like five.
am.
Uh-huh.
And I was like, fuck, maybe I just go and work out before the family gets up.
It's very man-stead.
Full dad maneuver.
Your looks maxing, got it.
You know who else does that?
John Travolta.
I go there.
By the way, the gym was slammed.
Oh, yeah.
It was the busiest I'd ever seen it.
And by the way, high school kids were in the gym, working out before they went to school.
Jesus.
And these like little broccoli-haired boys, and they were talking about look maxing.
And I interjected.
Looks max, yeah.
Looks maxing?
Yeah.
And I go...
I'm very particular about it.
I'm like, what's that?
And they told me all about clavicular.
And they're like, yeah, he's sort of sick, bro.
And I'm like, what's that?
And they're like, yeah, no, he like fucking has it all figured out.
He literally smashes his face with a hammer.
And then the bones, they grow back sharper.
I saw that.
So he looks hotter.
And it like literally works, bro.
And I'm like, oh, no.
I saw that.
I don't know, dude.
We're doomed.
By the way, these kids are the dumbest,
like jock beach kids imaginable.
There's other kids that I've seen at the gym
that seem perfectly normal
and have their head on straight.
But these kids are fucking stupid.
And they are following this guy
thinking he's the shit
and they're going to smash their faces with hammers.
Well, is it also a thing?
Do you guys?
Yeah, go ahead.
I mean, like everybody's kind of getting dumber.
So then I feel like dumb people are following even dumber leaders and we're becoming just a really dumb place.
That's just how it all ends.
It started with us.
We are the top of the manosphere.
We are the sun in which the manosphere orbits.
No, I don't think we're in the manosphere.
I really don't.
We're like barrage sphere.
I think we are manosphere adjacent.
I think something to go back to like our era, I feel like,
something like entourage is more
Manusphere than we were.
And I think we made like an effort to
not even like an effort. I think our
just personalities
sensibilities. Our sensibilities,
our nests just never
lent us to be like, I guess
these guys ended up fucking 10 chicks
in one night and that's the end
of the episode. Well it's just pure chauvinism
isn't it? Even though we could have and people would have been
like this show rocks. Yeah, they would have said it's awesome.
It's just like a chauvinism
rebrand.
We made a point to like never
hook up with anyone and
our characters really were
sort of losers, but
lovable. And maybe we got this
note and maybe we didn't, I'm not going to say,
but maybe someone told us to stop
making it so gay.
Maybe we got that. Maybe we didn't. Maybe we didn't. I don't want to have
anybody, but maybe we got that no. It's possible
that they were like, and by the way,
remember people, people
in the streets. We're telling us that.
Remember that guy? I think we're in
Philly. He's like, man, love the show.
But it's so, he's like, quit
doing all that gay shit.
I'm not gay no more. Yeah, and he's like,
that last episode was so fucking
gay. And we're like,
because looks maxing is as straight
as it gets. That's to me, that's the whole thing
is that I'm like, look, gay
has many spectrums of what it means.
Of course. But looks maxing
is kind of
on the spectrum. I mean, that's
That's very far on the spectrum.
We're old and we're acting like this is new.
You're talking about just people trying to look their best.
I'm not gay no more.
But this dude is doing meth and steroids.
And he's in high school and he's vlogging it or what the fuck ever they call streaming it.
And this guy is smashing his face with hammers to look.
Dude, I mean, I just like would be.
But we manscaped.
We shaved our nuts.
Ders would pop his collar and shit.
Yeah, you know.
Yeah, we wore two collars.
That's the same.
You did? You did? Yeah.
Did you chew that gum that, like, is really hard to chew that makes your, like,
jaw, like, stronger?
I didn't, but I know what you're talking about.
Yeah, I think that's, I think that's as far as you should go as far as trying to, like, chisel, chisel your jaw.
But you guys wash your face every fucking day.
Hey, Blake, you don't need to chisel your jaw.
You have a cromagum jaw.
Crazy.
Okay.
If I looks maxed, I would be king man.
Dude, your version of looks maxing is just not drinking for, like, two weeks.
And that would be just drinking juice.
It's just like drinking water and staying hydrated.
Yeah.
Thank you.
What have you done?
You're alive.
Oh my God.
Unbelievable.
You're a fucking disaster, my guy.
I drank a glass of water.
Oh, my God.
Why hasn't a woman formally participated in a Formula One race weekend in over a decade?
Think about how many skills they have to develop at such a young age.
What can we learn from all of the new F1 romance novels suddenly popping up every year?
He still smelled of podium champagne and expensive friction.
And how did a 2023 event called Wag A Geddon change the paddock forever?
That day is just seared into my memory.
I'm culture writer and F1 expert Lily Herman, and these are just a few of the questions I'm tackling on no grip,
a Formula One culture podcast that dives into the under-explored pockets of the sport.
In each episode, a different guests and I will go deeper into the wacky mishap, scandals and sagas, both on the track and far away from it, that have made F1 a delightful, decadent dumpster fire for more than 75 years.

And consider my new podcast, mostly human, your bridge to the future.
Anyone can now be an entrepreneur, anyone can build an app, and it's very empowering.
Each week, I'll speak to the people building that future, and we're going to break down what all of this innovation actually means for you.
What I come to realize is that when people think that they're dating these AI companion, they're actually dating the companies that create this.
We're experiencing one of the greatest tech accelerations in human history.
And let's be honest, that can be messy.
There's no playbook for what to do when an AI model hallucinates a story about you.
But it's my belief that we should all benefit from this moment.
Mostly Human will show you how.
My goal is to give you the playbook, so you can benefit.
The reason I say agency is because if we can give power back to people,
then I think that's probably the best thing we can do for your mental health.

Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, host of the On Purpose podcast.
My latest episode is with Noah Kohn.
the singer-songwriter behind the multi-platinum global hit,
Stick Season, and one of the biggest voices in music today.
Noah opens up about the pressure that followed his rapid success,
his struggles with mental health and body image,
and the fear of starting again after such a defining moment in his career.
It's easy to look at somebody and be like,
your life must be so sick.
Man, you have no clue.
Talking about the mental illness stuff,
it used to be this thing that I was ashamed of.
I'm just now trying to unwind this idea that I have to be unhealthy.
physically or in pain in some emotional way in my life to create good music.
If someone says that I did a good job, I'm like, yeah, I'm good.
Someone says that I suck.
I'm like, I suck.
Getting to talk about this is not common for me.
Right now I need it more than ever.

radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I got to dive deeper into the Manosphere, because I know there's like a documentary and all
that, and I've really...
I just watched the documentary, too.
The documentary is actually kind of funny.
I want to watch it, but it's like one of those that at night, I usually, you know, during
the day, you don't have a lot of time to, like watch TV and stuff.
Because you're hustling, you're grinding, like a man shows.
Go ahead.
Well, it's also like I have a kid and, you know, you just feel weird watching your show when
you're...
And you got to raise him right.
You got it.
Yeah.
So I haven't watched it.
Every night I'm like trying to pitch it to Chloe.
I'm like, hey, maybe we watch this.
She's like, I don't want to fucking watch this manosphere document.
That seems like a nightmare.
I'm like, yeah.
She will not enjoy it.
Yeah.
But if you had a 10 or 12 year old, I think that it would be like beneficial to be like,
just to go, oh, this is what our son could potentially be entering into if he gets surrounded
by a bunch of fucking losers.
I'm a dude.
Isn't that wild?
Because the whole thing is like, it's.
Here's the deal.
Look, society generally has not that much depth, right?
Sure.
This is what we see with social media.
You're saying now that it's a very, like, shallow...
Society has always been this.
But now, because of social media and people living on there,
there's not that much depth to social media, right?
Yes.
Like, okay.
And so now we're just zeroing in on these people who have no depth
and people who have no depth
are following these people with no depth
and now becomes the majority of people
and then it's like
well god damn
society is just fucking like
super paper thin now
well it's also like I mean these are also people
who are in a way like philosophers
but they're not drawing from
anybody from the past
like I I wish
maybe I need to watch that whole interview
but like who do these people
emulate who are there
who are there like
who are they like who are they
heroes. Who are they like? Andrew Tate? What do you mean? Listen, clavicular? Yeah, but like,
clavicular's whole thing is like he's not emulating people. He's, he's a ones and zeros spectrum dude
who's going, this is how society works. If you're better looking, you make more money. If you make more
money, you can, you have a wider range of mates that you can choose from based on society. So like,
he's not saying, I want to be this thing. He's going, this is the science.
get a hammer out boys and start hitting the tanning salon.
Say it.
And he's not even...
And by the way, that's what I'm saying is it's like,
it's all about looks and money,
which we all know are important at the base level.
But they aren't the key to happiness.
At the base level, but yeah.
They don't fulfill you.
But they do fulfill these people.
And that's what gets so frustrating
is that everybody who has any sort of depth,
not even me, people who are like
based their lives on having a little more depth, right?
They go, this is so stupid.
But everyone without depth goes, oh, yeah, what do you fucking sit around, philosophize?
Like, they don't care because the bottom line as animals is you got to be able to provide and be hot.
Yeah.
To find your mate.
Well, in that case, just get in line for Bonnie Blue and fucking have a good old time, man.
I guess I'm team clavicular.
Look, that's what I'm saying.
The things he's saying aren't wrong.
They're just void of humanity.
Look.
So he's like, why would I go?
on a date if I didn't stream it
and try and like
capitalize on the situation and it's like
well don't be a total loser
who streams everything. He seems to kind of
have a soul like Andrew Tate I think
is actually a bad person
Andrew Tate is evil
The Clavicular has no humanity
Yeah I think he's just kind of
He's a robot. Yeah he's just trying to like
make an equation for life
right? He's like breaking it down
into this plus this equals this
Right
but he's such a young man.
He hasn't even experienced much life.
I mean, the whole interview is hilarious.
That's the crazy thing because he's like, what, like 19 or 20?
Yeah.
How old was he?
I guess he's in bars.
Like, imagine if Adam was 19 and he was coming up with a way to tell other kids how to live life.
It would involve like hacky sack.
Yeah.
You have to hacky sack.
And by the way, that's the whole thing is that that's who's rising to the top.
You have to.
Well, don't put me into clavicular's camp, by the,
the way. You knew me when I was 18. I was not like that. I know, but if that kid was, was, had social
media and he was. And you were, like, had followers. Like, imagine you at 19 and you actually, like,
got, fucking went viral and became famous, like, just being you. Maybe. It feeds into it. You say
one thing and people go, yeah, that's it. And you go, again, back to the clicks. Am I doing this for the
I guess now because you used to want to, like I wanted to be a comedian and an actor.
Right.
Those were my goals.
But now the goal is just to be famous on the internet.
Right.
For kids.
Yes.
It's a different goal.
And make money.
It's like to be YouTubers or streamers and make money.
And for me, it was never about, I mean, the money was like that comes with.
That's fucking rad.
Yeah.
That comes with being a successful actor or comedian.
but it wasn't like, I have to get the money.
That was like another thing that comes with it, which would be sick.
Right.
The cooler thing would be like people saying, that is the funniest guy ever, not like, that is the richest guy ever.
Yeah.
You see that guy over there behind 7-Eleven eating out of that old pizza box?
He's the funniest guy ever.
He might die tonight.
Yeah, but he also's funny.
He's been hitting his face with hammers.
He might hit himself in the face with a hammer.
But he's got great advice.
for the youth of America.
I tried to give him $20.
He said, keep it.
And then he did this.
And he called it his comedy routine.
I'm a fucking idiot.
Oh, see.
No, but of course.
Can you see?
There it is.
And what?
I don't even know the words.
I know there's O-apostrophe ER at some point.
It's O-er.
I know, but I don't even know what that means.
It's over.
What's over?
Or.
Or means over?
It's o'er.
I think.
What part...
Okay, let's break it down.
I like to pivot
from Manosphere to breaking down
the national anthem.
By the way, everyone in the Manosphere
is like, you don't know the fucking
Star Spangled Banner or whatever.
No, they don't care.
They don't care.
We grew up saying the Pledge of Allegiance
every morning in my class, all right?
You got to start low.
They don't do that.
Oh, see.
Sure.
Can you see...
Okay, now, and who's Jose?
Are we doing it or do the words?
He's re-in-it.
Early light.
You don't have to say.
What's so proudly we had the twilight's last gleaming.
Cumbaya.
Who's brought stripes and bright songs?
I'm going to come.
No, you don't go high there.
You don't go high there, right?
Broad stripes and bright stars.
Listen, we're talking with the flag now.
Obviously.
That blue line.
And the blue line.
And the blue line.
O'er the ramparts we watched.
We're so gallantly streaming.
So what is Oar?
No one knows.
Where was it again?
This is Francis Scott Key.
Wait, he's old school.
And is a rampart a dick?
Francis Scott Key was in the manosphere.
Who?
O'er the ramparts we watched.
The person who wrote the national anthem, was it Francis Scott Key?
Yeah, Scott Key.
Yeah, that's right.
I knew that.
That's right.
Durs, you didn't know that?
You were so dumb.
I don't know anything about this.
Wait, what was the or?
Can you read the sentence with the or or or or?
Ramparts.
He's talking about ramparts, dude.
Tell me about your ramparts.
Or the ramparts.
I think I clicked out of it, dude.
Oh, fuck.
It seemed like it wasn't going anywhere.
Here it is.
Over the O apostrophe ER, the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming, question mark.
So.
Question.
Question mark.
There ain't no question marks in the national anthem.
That to me is saying, or the ramparts, the explosions we watched, were they gallantly streaming?
I don't know.
And the rockets were glare, the bombs bursting in air, gave proof of the night that our flag was still there.
So the flag was there.
And that's dope.
The explosions were happening.
So they're saying that there was like war going on and like the light of the explosions lit the flag.
And they were like, it's still there.
And they're like, yo.
It's still there.
It gave proof.
It gave proof.
Has anyone seen the flag?
Could you light an explosion?
There it is.
That our flag was still there.
Oh, say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave?
That's the hardest line.
I don't give a hurt.
The land of the free and the home of the brave.
It is a banger.
It is a banger.
But if we don't know what or man...
It falls apart for me.
Who gets this shit?
It's an old...
Or is over.
It doesn't matter.
I know.
But there's a lot of old things that I want to know what they meant.
I'm pissed now.
No, you don't want to know shit about...
It's when do you want to know anything about history?
Anders.
Like Bonnie Blue, that happened months ago.
I still want to know about it.
I don't know that it's $1,057 or whatever.
That's our history.
Yeah, she was O'R there.
She was O'R there for sure.
I was O'R there in line.
She's our Rosie the Riveter.
I was over there in line for Bonnie Blue the other day.
Francis Scott Key.
So, Isaac is saying,
Ower is a poetic literary or old-fashioned contraction of the word over.
That's what I said
So it's just like old school
You guys
So this was like
Blake back to you
This is kind of fizz
This is slang
Yes
This is Timuetta
I believe that
The Bay Area did
Burst our nation
Or is some fucking fizz
In the national anthem
I don't think people know that
Because everyone's asking for a new one
They're like this one's old and played out
Let's get a new one
Yeah the thong song
I don't think they realize
That the oar hits so hard
It does
I can't wait for the aliens to come down and they just think E40 is our leader.
He is. He's the ambassador of the Bay.
Take me to your dealer.
Admittedly, I was pretty stoked when I ran into him, both at the Super Bowl and at the slam dunk contest.
It was pretty cool.
I've never spent quality time with E40, and that is one thing that I am waiting.
He seemed perfectly nice.
He is. He's a very nice person.
I've got a really bro-down.
You know who was really nice?
Who I sat right next to?
Two chains.
Oh, yeah.
Two chains.
He's funny, too.
He's got a great...
And not to give him a hard time.
He had way more than two chains on.
Okay.
Actually, no chains.
He was wearing no chains.
He had no chains.
No chains.
That's ridiculous.
He had him maybe tucked.
He definitely had chains.
Maybe tucked, but he wasn't flossinging him.
That's crazy.
Surprising because Chris Tucker was out there fucking blinging.
Good, good.
wearing the loudest jacket you could possibly wear so jealous, dude.
Yeah, I love Chris Tuffier.
Hey guys, this segment of Takebacks Apologies and Epic Slams are brought to you by Simple Mills.
Is it me or do we have absolutely no tapebacks or apologies for this episode?
Yeah, I was thinking we kind of nailed this one, nothing to take back.
I think we planned perfectly by eating the perfect snack beforehand,
and thus making us perfectly content this entire episode.
You're right.
And Simple Mills, our favorite epic snack, help make that possible.
I love me some almond flour crack.
I love me some pop-ums.
I think we have found the ultimate snack to keep us happy throughout the entire podcast recording.
And that's Simple Mills.
Find Simple Mills at your grocery store now.
Oh man, God damn.
Let's see.
Any tapebacks regarding clavicular and how he's kind of speaking truth to power?
I don't know.
By the way, by the way, I want the cops to know that I stand with you.
What?
I like cops.
I'm not saying I dislike cops.
I'm just saying when did it get cool to suddenly love cops?
Right.
Like why now it's like you have to fucking proclaim your love of.
cops all the time when I'm like, yeah, I like cops, just fine.
Adam, the way you say this makes me think that there were two years of America that happened
that you were like...
I ain't watching.
Maybe it was when you were doing bumper in Berlin, I think.
I think it was when you were doing bumper in Berlin that people were like, on the streets
going, we don't need police, and then people who had police in their family or whatever
were like, actually, we provide a service.
And so those people, they put the sticker on the car and it's just still on the car.
Yeah, I might have been in Germany.
I might have been in Germany.
The real shit is when you see people driving a truck
with like the broomstick flags going off the back.
That should be us.
Which by the way, I see down here.
I see that.
And then I also see the signs in the yard still.
And I'm like...
Or the rockets red clear.
And then they're like, and I also support the fire department.
You're like, no shit.
Right.
The fuck doesn't support the fire department.
I also support the people who make sandwich
is that subway, bro.
Yeah, like a sandwich artist.
I thought you were going to say the, what do they call, the poison bread?
What do they call those things?
Cheese zombies.
Please don't shit on my culture.
Please don't shit on my culture.
I'm not.
I just remember there was a name that was deadly.
And you can have a take back right now.
It's not poison bread.
It's cheese zombies.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
I apologize.
I think that Rob's zombies is fucking diabolically corny.
Yeah, that's not cool.
Don't do that.
I didn't say that.
Unless.
That's not cool.
I'm saying it.
Unless.
Rob is involved.
Rob Zombie himself signs off.
Yep.
Okay?
I got the same,
I'll take the same umbrage
with yeasty boys
in Los Angeles.
Oh.
Yeah.
I hear you guys make
wonderful sandwiches and bagels.
But I find it absolutely
diabolically corny
that you named your shit
Yeasty boys
because I also know
the Beastie boys
are not affiliated
you stole the fucking font from Eric Hayes
and then he had to sue you guys
Is that right?
You lose!
Yeah, the dude who does all the old check your head
like fonts.
So like, just come up with your own name.
Okay.
Just come up with your own name.
I know you're a big Beastie Boys fan
and I like the Beastie Boys.
I'm not a Beastie Boys head like Ders is.
I never even thought about the Beastie Boys
when I saw the Beastie Boys.
It never even came in my head.
I was just like, yeah, yeasty boys.
Like their yeasty sandwich boy,
their boys must be a couple guys that own the sandwich place.
It never even dawned on me that it was a Beastie Boys reference.
It's a bagel.
Even worse.
That's crazy.
And it's because I'm part of the Manosphere and I am so good.
And shout out to the Yeasty Boys.
Not interested in your bagels.
It's a bagel.
And anyone else who goes there and supports
this corny.
Here's a quick question.
Okay.
Out of the three of us,
who is the most
in the manosphere?
Adam,
I mean...
Remember how Blake said
do the people
in the mannosphere
have any self-awareness?
Yeah.
You're living that right now.
Yeah, you might.
By even asking that question.
You...
You're proving the point.
Zero takebacks on this.
Who of us is the most
in the manuscript?
Who of us?
Who of us?
You're like a self-recllaimed
watch collector.
Yeah.
I'm not a...
You said you're a watch guy.
I do like watches.
Okay.
Is that a man...
Are you a watch guy?
That manisphere?
Watch guy is big time mannisphere.
I guess I'm a guy who likes watches.
Yeah.
Okay.
But are you a watch guy?
Is watch guys manasphere?
I feel like I've heard you say I'm a watch guy.
A thousand percent.
Watch guys are manosphere.
I don't think that that's...
A thousand percent.
Really?
I don't think so.
I disagree.
It's science.
That's because you're in the manister.
You don't know anybody.
You have no clue.
Okay.
Yeah.
Maybe you're right.
Maybe you're right.
People who like watches are not in the manosphere.
People who are watch guys.
Watch guys are Manosphere.
Hmm.
That's a...
Well, I like watches.
I'm not a watch guy.
I feel like I've heard you say I'm a watch guy.
Okay.
Are guys that collect shoes?
Are they Manosphere?
I would say guys who collect Jordans are in the Manosphere.
Whoa.
So it's a collection thing.
If you collect new balances, you are decidedly opting out.
out of the manosphere or anything cool.
Okay.
No.
New Balance, by the way, is on right now.
Yeah, yeah.
New balance is a movement.
And so maybe that's...
So maybe you might be in the manosphere.
What was I wearing in 2004 when I met you guys?
Sure, but you might have started...
All I had to hear was sure butt.
Yep.
Have I always had...
Sure, but...
A nice watch since you've known me.
You've had a watch, and you are now a watch guy.
I've always liked watches even since I was a kid.
Adam, we're trying to save you.
I've watched you slip into the manned
slowly.
But I think it's you.
Okay, well, I probably would agree.
It's probably the most of me, yeah.
Well, according to my algorithm,
my algorithm is hilarious, dude.
I'm like, my God.
They're feeding me all this shit.
What's the one?
Do you, I do not interested.
If there's something that I'm like,
I don't want to see more of this.
Like, is there an example of something that I should do that more?
I've hit that you're not interested in.
I've never even known that that's an option.
Yeah.
I don't even...
Yeah, you just touch it and then it pops up and it's like...
On Instagram?
Yeah, you just touch the thing.
Yeah, you can kind of...
You can kind of get rid of stuff you don't want to...
See?
By the way...
Just removed...
The cheese zombies coming up.
She's on.
...removed Instagram from...
Your phone?
My phone.
I have to, like, dig into my phone to, like, pull it up so that I can, like, post...
Oh, that...
New Heights. The New Heights guys have us on. Oh, yeah. Very man. Finally, that's us. That was great.
That was the, and the New Heights guys are the Kelsey brothers, people that don't know.
Yeah. That is Travis and Jason Kelsey. And they were football players. Yes, fun guys.
R. One R, one R. One R. One R. Yes. The other one is aren't. Travis is back.
But, like, I have it on my phone somewhere to post, like, repost that and to post our podcast stuff.
but I'm kind of done looking.
That's good, dude.
I think that's good for the brain.
I'm like, what am I looking at?
I also think you're old.
You're like old.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think we're all getting old to where like it doesn't even.
I mean, Blake is to look.
Who are we kidding?
Blake is on the internet.
I've been on the whole time.
23 hours a day.
You guys are potting, but I'm over here.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I know.
But I feel like Ders and I are getting old and just starting to go like,
it doesn't matter.
Because also like a month, not a month, a year ago, I muted almost everybody I follow.
That's a great call.
Just about everybody.
Oh, that's a great call.
Because I don't want to know what's going on your life.
I'll call you or text you and be like, what's up?
Well, also, I've said this before.
You know what's...
But like if I just see it on the feed, I feel like I'm less likely to reach out and wonder how someone is if I just see the feed.
But I'd like running into someone and then being like, oh, dude, that fucking vacation you went on.
looks sick and then talking about it.
And Adam, that's what they want.
That's what they want.
So mission accomplished.
You guys are missing out on the best day of Instagram.
It's April Fool's.
There's so much funny stuff happening on the internet today.
Okay.
But this podcast isn't airing on April Fool's.
You fucking idiot.
I know.
But today is April Fool's today.
You fucking idiot.
And I would like to say.
Now people are going to realize that we aren't even friends.
I would like to say, happy birthday mom.
Happy birthday mom.
Oh, it's your mom.
birthday? Yes, and that's why I'm
here. Ah, happy birthday.
That's why I'm here and that's
another episode
of
this
is
important.
I'm not in the manisphere, dude.
I'm not.
I'm not, dude.
I'm not in the manisphere.
I think we all are.
Wait, why did you
say that on the pod then?
I'm saving.
We're still on. We got you, Blake.
Got you, bitch. We got you, bitch.
I think we all are.
No, I don't know what the Manisphere is. I've got to look into it.
I've been...
Come on. Save it. I've been avoiding it.
Save it.
We're going right back.
When we're back, Blake says he doesn't know what the Manosphere is.
I know it's going to be really funny and I'm going to really like it, so I'm just waiting.
You won't.
