Hey and welcome to Tomorrow. I'm your host Josh Wonsboski. Today on the podcast, we discuss Lady Gaga's dad, Libra, and Trees. I don't always want to minute. Let's get right into it. Okay, Ryan, we're back. It's been a long time. Been a fortnight. It's been two weeks. Oh, the last day.

Please don't do that. We're back. It's been a long time. It's been a port night. It's been two weeks weeks. Lost down. Please don't do that. It's been a long time since we have been on the podcast. We have left our fan high and dry. I haven't recorded it since I was 29. They're very upset. You were 29 the last time we spoke, the last time that we ever talked to each other. And now I'm 28. Now for the next time we're talking you're 28 years young. And oh wow, oh boy. We're in somebody somebody is using the podcast room here for clothing storage, children's clothing storage.

Listen, it all make this all makes sense. Trust me. If you ever wanted to hear a tomorrow podcast from a limited two store, limited to junior. Is two, does that suggest like children? Yeah, it's the children. It's like a clairs. I'm familiar with clairs. Believe me. Is that the big clairs? I'm very familiar with,

I'm very, very familiar with clairs. No, I, they've great phone cases. I've talked about this. I've definitely talked about this in the podcast before. It's a bizarre thing to know. No, they, I have, they have a lot of... John, I'm hanging out at a clairs. I'm always going in. I've definitely talked about this in the podcast before. That's a bizarre thing to know. No, I have they have a lot of. I'm always going in there, get my ears pierced, get some phone cases. I actually did get my ear, one of my ears pierced out of clairs when I was 16. Well, who's the weird one now? And I did it in the heterosexual ear because it was the

negotiation me and my dad made. What's the heterosexual ear? So in the mid-20s, from the 90s to the 2000s, if you got your right ear pierced, you were gay, if you got your left ear pierced, you weren't gay. Checked out. And my dad knew this for some reason, and was like, you knew your pierced, but not to gay one. And I was out at the time, so this definitely was damaging experience.

I feel like you'd be like, well, that doesn't really track. I got it pierced, and I hated it, and it was in for two weeks, and now I have a giant cartloid bump in my ear. You remind me a lot of Billy from Stranger Things. Oh, I'm exactly, I'm exactly like. He has one of his years, Pierce. I think the straight one.

Dacker, Montgomery. Dacker, Dacker, Montgomery. Me and him. Twin. He's like Irish or Scottish or something. Who can say? Whatever he rules, amazing. We have it, so we have a lot to talk about.

Stranger Things is a thing we haven't talked about. So much has happened in the last two weeks episode 169. It's 169 the sexiest episode of the hundreds It's our most sexy geriatric episode So much has happened in the past two weeks It's I went through the news and I tried to limit it to just recent things. I mean so much shit There's so much I mean stranger things we haven't talked about. Have we we haven't talked about it and I tried to limit it to just recent things. I mean, there's so much. There's so much. I mean, stranger things we haven't talked about. Have we? We haven't talked about it and I bought the game.

I watched the whole thing. It trailer, the second trailer for the it part two or the official final trailer for it part two is out today. Well, what else is going on? I don't know. You probably have a list of the stuff. I do have a list. Okay.

What do we got? Did you watch stranger things? Yes, I watched. I did not like it. Well, that's your mistake. I feel bad, but. Okay, it was very violent. It was very dark.

Darkest season ever. And it felt like the old stories were individual 80s movie tropes playing out. And then they would come together in some way that you were like, everyone had a piece of information and now this is all part of a giant 80s story. I thought it was a great reference to the 80s and 80s movies

on some pretty deep and interesting levels. I appreciate the new Coke representation. And definitely that, Tranger Things is now pro-communism or socialism and pro, I think it's pro-communism. Well, it's definitely anti-capitalism. It might be anti-communism.

Well, they definitely have that little bit of the story where it's like Main Street is like dead because of the mall. And they're like, fuck the mall. It was like surprisingly, it was like a surprisingly woke. Yeah, like it's surprisingly like nuance take on the economic impact of like

mall culture. Sort of corporate capitalist like malls and strip malls and stuff like that. But I thought the season was good. I have an underlying issue with Stranger Things. Would you like to hear about it? Sure, I would love to. We don't know anything, and I mean nothing about the evil presence in Stranger Things. Yeah, we don't know what it is. Yeah, upside down has always been very things.

Yeah, but it's like, it's still vague if we're three reasons in it Yeah, we don't know, we don't know what it is. Yeah, upside down has always been very things. Yeah, but it's like, it's still vague if we're three things in it and we don't know like, what the motivation is of this thing. We don't know what, if there's an intelligence, it seems like now we know there's like an intelligence behind it. And as part of our reality, like an underlying level of our reality or another dimension

and can we get to other other dimensions? Is it an alternate universe and if so, like why are we all like all mining the same alternate universes? There are way to mind different alternate universes. Eleven, her abilities, we've never, no one's ever addressed them. We don't know where they come from. It's got all kinds of abilities too. We don't know what powers them.

We know that she's in the same place that Scarlett Johansson is in under the skin, which is a black space where you can walk on water. It's literally, have you seen the movie under the skin? It's literally the same fucking thing. It's like, I expected her to bump into Scarlett Johansson at some point. Scarlett Johansson is like, I should be able to play an angel in a tree.

Yeah, you know, it's really Bobby Brown is like, okay, you see, and a tree. That's what she said. She said, I should be allowed to't see color. I don't mind if you're purple. I don't know, I'm a purple. I think I should be able to, I think there's a, actually, like, because the tree is a much larger and more ambitious jump, I can almost, I feel like it's very just, if also, like, the tree is not a person, or a culture or a culture or an ethnicity. For everybody gets a part, so some people are curious

about the tree. I think that the tree is a lot more, I think that the tree is a lot more, a lot more, a lot more, a lot more, a lot more, a lot more, a lot more, a lot more, a lot more, a lot more not a person. It's a very like a culture or a culture or a ethnicity. Everybody gets apart. It's the same people are trees. Like the tree is a tree. So like yeah, you've been able to play like a groundhog. If you're like your cast is a groundhog.

It's like yeah, I don't think the groundhog community's gonna rise up and be like, oh excuse me. Like they're not people. Well the thing that bothers me about this, Amen. And I know that she clarified it. So off top. The thing that bothered me about all of that was that she doesn't take into account that the reason people

are upset is because they don't get other jobs. So what you're doing is you're keeping them from casting a trans person who wouldn't get cast as a not trans person. Like, Lover and Cox has never been cast as a cis woman. So when you take the job at playing a trans woman, you're taking a job that she probably could have gotten if we said we're only gonna cast trans women and trans roles.

And that's the problem there. Like an actor, I really be able to play anything, but we don't live in an ideal world. I mean, the trans thing is interesting because like there's, you know, you could, it's not impossible to, it's tough. I mean, you know, because there's literally a transition part of that experience,

which is where you go from something to something else, right? Like from one thing to another. So you can imagine an actor being able to inhabit at least some part of that experience. Yeah, because that's what acting is, which is like pretending to be something that you're not. Literally all acting is like, I'm this thing, and it's like, no, you're not.

It's like Robert Deere is like, I'm a tough criminal, and it's like, no, you're actually like a soft ass actor who lives in like a mansion. Yeah. And like actually a soft ass actor who lives in a mansion. And has the softest feet of anybody in the world. You're not a criminal who's on the run from the FBI or a mob boss or whatever. Anyhow, part of acting is inhabiting a character that has attributes that you don't have. But there's a limit, there's a limitation and there should be I think. Like I don't think it's like, hey, all white actors can play black roles in vice versa. Like that gets into pretty problematic territory

pretty quickly. I think the thing that's interesting about the trans roles is that there is, you can imagine a part of that experience that could be played by a non-trans actor. But then it's like, where do you draw the line? And that is the question that I don't wanna answer experience that could be played by non-trans actor. But then it's like, where do you draw the line? And that is the question that I don't wanna answer

and don't have the answer for. I just think if everybody was employed equally and like, and a trans actor had a chance at a Marvel film regularly, then sure. But that's not happening. And so, can you tell me this is an pass on the whole? But then the flip, the flip is like, okay, here's an interesting one. It's like, could a trans woman play,

like, the interesting question is like, then you could have like women, it's like cis normative women being like, I don't want a trans woman to play the role of this like cis norm like comic character, right? Cause it's like, I mean, you could, I don't know who would get it. I don't know what he would make that argument.

But there's so many roles that like that, it would be a drop in the bucket versus the handful of roles that exist for people of minority status. So in any event, I think it was a complicated Tom Dev and I'm like kind of like a starlet Johansson, right? We just completely abandoned stranger things. We just Whatever. I mean the show is it's fine. It's turned into a television show. I thought it was very good I felt like an event series if anything I thought the season was special. I thought the season was too dark It was whatever very dark very true. Except when they were like suddenly there's a giant military base underground That was like ridiculous. No, it's pretty funny. You know who's great Brett Gilman. Yeah, I really come I really come around I've really come around this guy is like I'm sorry Brett. Gilman is they're like, we need a guy who's a total fucking dud, okay?

His balding, he's kind of flabby. No one likes him, he's unlikable. Brett Galman's like, Mark Maren's books. Brett Galman's like, I'm ready to play the role. Where do I sign? Like, you gotta hand to Brett Galman. I've seen no hands and guns. He's in, he's in, he's in Fleabag. Oh yeah, God and he's in hard for that role. He's in flea bag.

Oh yeah. God, he's so capable. Same character. He's so hateable and flea. The only difference between his character and flea bag and his character is this guy speaks Russian. I'm sorry. No, but Brett Gellman, everything I've ever seen

he was in the show married, but he's so good at that role. He's amazing, but he's like, it's like literally there's one, it's like I'm sorry to worry about Brett Gellman, like how bad is he? You know, like we need a piece of to worry about Brett Gellman, like how bad is he? You know? Like we need a piece of shit. Is Brett Gellman available? I always think that about when they cast a fat kid for a movie that you know they put out of.

Oh, I can't. I can't think of that. Like a real dumpy looking kid. That kid was like, I guess that's my job, mom. Like we're looking for a morbidly obese real ego talented actor with a pig face. Like you're like cast in the role. No, it is fucked up though, right?

It's like, we're looking for, like it's like, yeah, I mean, how do you, how do you cast for the roles of ugly people? Or, you know, I mean, like what is ugly really? It's like, I have the beholder. And then in the cast there always, in the script there always like, look at this dumpy man. You understand, you understand, like, Brett Elman, you know, Laura, we're watching like Stranger Things and Laura's like,

oh, he's pretty hot. I'm like, you're offending me right now. It's you're hurting my feelings and I don't kind of know. Okay, okay fine There's a type but people know what it means. I'm a Brett Gellman type to men have a much bigger spectrum of what's hot than people attracted to women That's not true. I like all types of women ugly hot short tall all right I mean to all the Laura's like gets mad at me. She's like, well, she's like you like all everybody. It doesn't even matter. That might be specific to you.

But in media in January. I find it can find beauty in everything. Okay. That's my thing. Well, I'll say this. Except fatties. No, I'm kidding. I'm the guy who plays the sheriff.

Cut that out. It was that funny. I don't know. That was funny. The guy who plays the sheriff or whatever. Pretty out. I gotta say, okay, you have a thing, you like a little, you like a little, you like a little meat on the bones.

I don't mind. I will say this. I don't mind a twink, but I feel like there are dime a dozen. When I find a man with a meat on the bones, I feel like that's mine. Nobody's else is going after it. I gotta say, I will say this. Hopper, I was like wow, hopper really packed it on.

He packed it in, whatever it is. It's a glow up. But then I was kinda like, I was kinda like, this is good like in a way, like I feel like if I get fatter, I feel like it's, I could still work it, Hopper's kinda still working it. Yeah. He's got several scenes where he shirtless,

and I'm kinda like, it's not good, but it's not bad. Oh, it's good. All right, next topic, let's talk about something else. This is like your whole Thor, your whole Thor thing. All right, let's keep going. It's night, it's episode 169. Let's do it, let's do it, let's do it baby. It's sex of it all. I want like your whole story, your whole story thing. All right, let's keep going. It's night, episode 169. Let's do it. Let's do it.

Let's do it, baby. Let's do it, baby. Let's do it, baby. Sex of it all. I want it to be, I want it to be reciprocal this whole episode. Speaking of sex. Oh, God. Elon Musk and Grimes have some updates for us.

Elon Musk wants to create a neural link where he can connect people to computers to start with handicapped people and then go to where he uploads his computer brain into his brain to a computer and that emerges with AI. So that's right, man. And then Grimes had eyelid. No, she didn't really have this is fake surgery. This is fake surgery, but she claimed that she had an experimental eye surgery to remove the blue color blue from her vision. I'm sorry, everybody's so dumb. They're like, Grimes did what? It's like trending Grimes as eye surgery. It's like, I'm'm you're all fucking dumb. I mean Just don't believe everything you read it. Can we just can we agree to that one basic piece of news literacy?

Let's just believe nothing Elon or Grimes says in general just as a policy. What does Grimes voice sound like when she's speaking? Is that what it sounds like I mentioned sounds like Mary Ann from Brooklyn on it feels the Howard Stern show Well, it's sort of Elizabeth Holmes a Nazi head to we were just talking about like hi. I'm grimes. No, it's a little put on you can tell she's doing a thing Well, she isn't above all a performer It's like when Madonna was British or when Lady Gaga goes transit land deck and she's like I want to my little monsters And you're like are you from your ripia? Are you from Atlantis? Nobody has this accent, lady. Have we talked about Aquaman? Yeah, you loved Aquaman so good.

You're just reminding me of you, because he said Atlantis. Well, I like to return it. To me, you know how people were obsessed with Avatar and wanted to live in what is it called? Pandora. Pandora. My Pandora is Atlantis from Aquaman. Anyhow, go on.

Well, in any event. Come on, wiggle around like a fish. I'm talking. This is another project with Elon Musk, where I'm like, what is it? I mean, I get the thing. The Ne in any event. I'm on wiggle around like a fish. I'll talk to you. There's another project with Elon Musk, where I'm like, what is it? I mean, I get the new thing. The New York thing, I'm like, it's fine. Who cares?

Here's my opinion. He made a great card. Just test row of a Tesla Model 3 seems very fun. Very cool. I'm an into it. I'll probably buy one for my next card. Well, I'll probably lease it, honestly. I don't really care about his other projects.

Like, bring, you know what's like, bring the goods. You know what Apple was really good at? It has been really good at. They know they're not like, we're going to do this. Yeah, they just do. They're like, we fucking did it. Yeah. They're like, oh, the best smartphone camera ever.

We didn't, we're not like, it would be cool. Someday, we're working on it. They're like, here it is. You know, they're like a phone that's as thin as whatever, you know, like a pop tart. It's like, stop talking about what you're gonna do. Stop talking about the future plans and fucking do it. One of the things that was the most annoying,

when I went to raves, when I was a youngster going to raves, and I would like DJ, and I was like, you know, I had friends who were promoters. One of the things that was like a constant annoyance in the community of ravers was people who were like, I'm gonna throw the biggest party. I'm gonna throw a party, Sasha and Digweed are coming,

but we're gonna get Paul O. ConfConfold and it's like, dude, don't tell me about it. No. Book it. Give me the flyer. I'm ready to go to your party, but no one believes you. Yeah, you know, it's like, it's like,

it's like, let's talk more rock. It's what I'm saying. So like, don't show me, don't show me some fucking basic ass demo of a mouse using the neural link. Yeah, shit. I don't care. Get off the bot.

Just, but like, tell me when you're ready to shit and I'll come and watch it. Well speaking of text, though. Speaking of 6090. You wanna talk about face app? Face app. So here's the my face app. It's gone viral for the 15th time in history

because it goes viral once every few months. I gotta hand it to face app. I mean, the depictions of age in that app are shockingly realistic. They're upsetting. I mean, they don't of age in that app are shockingly realistic. They're upsetting. I mean, they don't account for the amount of work I'm gonna have done. That's right. I was thinking they should have a filter where you can like,

boat change the Botox level. Yeah, I was looking at it and I was like, I've already had too much work done for this to be realistic. No, I think like, look, I mean, I, uh, so there's this big scare about like, it's owned by Russia, underground the mall. I have, listen, I have no reason to think that there aren't nefarious things happening

with any app that takes a picture of your face. Not close to a server. My mom was like, don't download Face app, it's owned by Russians, they can get your information of your own, I'm like, how many weird exercise apps for running have you downloaded just to see if they work? I'm definitely, I'm definitely,

I'm definitely more concerned with the fucking Facebook filter that makes your face a little juggalo. It's like, it's like, the one thing that beats facial recognition is the juggalo face, like face paint. And they're like a new thing that like maps the juggalo face paint to your face is like, how could this be reverse engineered? Let's think. Could it be used to see what faces look like

with juggler makeup on them, and then figure out what the face is? And honestly, as memes go, I would rather something a little more sophisticated that requires a lot of engineering to make every single person on Earth look old, then another SpongeBob meme cycle. It's fun that that went viral.

That's a fun thing that we're all laughing. It's fun to confront your mortality and your future ugliness. One of the best tweets I saw it was like, someone was like, face up, here's what you'll look like in 50 years, global warming. Ha ha ha ha ha.

It's all be dead. Is what we're gonna look like deep fried. Yeah, that's good. I don't know, one thing that does annoy me, however, I will say, if I may, is all of these sites, all these predominantly tech sites who are like, your privacy, your privacy, protect your privacy, your privacy, who are like, oh,

can't believe everybody freaking out because Facebook is owned by a Russian company. Who cares? Face app, sorry, what did I say? Facebook. Facebook is not owned by a Russian company yet. But they'll tell their data to them. People are like, ha! Really, I can Facebook. Facebook is not owned by a Russian company yet. But they'll tell their data to them. People are like, ha!

Really, I can't believe Face app is owned by a Russian company. You know, they're like, you know, this is a ridiculous, you know, don't be scared of this. Like, you know, protect your privacy, but this is no more dangerous than X, Y, Z. And it's like, I feel like that's like a less skeptical take on things that I want to see from the people who are always like, Facebook is destroying your privacy.

Like, be consistent. You know, you should be like, yeah, there are reasons to be concerned about this. It's not like, it's not a red scare, but like there are reasons, it's not the red scare podcast, but there are reasons to be deeply concerned about the content of the app.

I'm also a little sus on every website that's like, privacy, privacy, privacy, privacy, privacy, and then you put on adblock and they're like, please don't read our website if you have adblock on because it's like, it's like wired wired was like, here's all the things that Amazon owns. And it's like, Amazon's best prime day deals. It's like, that's back. I bet it article.

It's like, are you skeptical and worried about Amazon? Or do you love Amazon and require Amazon to make money? I loved Gizmodo tweeting and actually prime days on this list. I love to Amazon tweeting on prime day every, uh, um, well, sorry, Gizmodo was tweeting about Amazon every negative article that they have, negative takes, like they were being pretty consistent on Twitter. But if you go on the Gizmodo website,

Kenja Deals is plastered everywhere, telling you everything you can buy. You're like 100 dollars off this backpack. It's like, all right guys, you know what we get? We know inside your bread is buttered on this every side. I'm glad that your social media I bought the butter during prime day on sale. You got it in bulk But you're we can see where you are at on this and we see you

Did you buy anything on prime day? I don't think I I don't think I did I did end up buying an Apple watch because you know I'm a hardcore Apple user now. I'm into the iPhone heavily and Tyler love the CTO here at bustustle and EVE our CTO from the outline, both were demonstrating Apple Watch features to me recently. I've been wearing my Fitbit, I have a Fitbit Versa that I bought a year ago. And I've been, you know, because I'm like,

I was on vacation for a week, I told you this, not on the air, but I previously told Ryan, I was on vacation for a week I told you this, you not on the air, but I previously told Ryan I was on vacation for a week and I gained a little weight while on vacation. So I'm like back on like watching my shit. And so I put the Fitbit watch back on and then they showed me the ECG or whatever it is heart rate functions. And as a man who's previously had a heart condition

that I've had surgery for it I was like this is actually kind of cool and useful. I've talked about that on the show There was a reason that I use the Apple watch reg always because my family is a history of very weird heart conditions All different kinds and I just would rather know I would rather just be able to look and totally find out totally Anyhow so um that I didn't but I didn't buy it on prime day. It was $50 off But I didn't buy it on prime day good. I bought50 off, but I didn't buy it on Prime Day. Good, I bought it. Where did the boycott?

Yesterday. Was yesterday a Prime Day? It was the 15th and 16th. So yes, it was yesterday. No, no, it's the 18th. It would have been the 17th. For this whole week. Okay, yeah, this week has been a fucking year.

It's insane. It's out of control. I don't think, I think it was post-Primed day, and I was like, oh, I missed that deal. And I went to look and it was like, oh, it's still 50 bucks off. I was like, okay, cool. Then I bought And I went to look and it was like, oh, it's still 50 bucks off. I was like, okay, cool. Then I bought an off brand non-Apple band for it because I'm not paying $50 for a band.

You can get dupes that are exactly the same. That's what I think I got. Hopefully I'm crossing my fingers. We'll find out soon to be reported on next week's podcast. Speaking purchases, the Nintendo announced the Switch Lite. Oh my God. Yeah, I'm sorry. I don't have a lot of excitement about this.

I don't have to say, like, doesn't have rumble. You can't, I'm sorry. I don't have a lot of excitement about this. I don't have to say it like, doesn't have rumble. You can't change the screen brightness. I don't know, who cares? This is good. I'm happy for people if they want to buy it. Yeah, that was kind of my thing where I was like, I guess, and that was like,

I would be more interested in a Switch Pro or something like that. Switch Pro. Two words. Switch Pro. And they quietly made the Switch battery life on the standard Switch better. Which is nice. Not a reason to like, buy a new one, but I want to switch pro. I want, I, you know,

my PlayStation come out with a Switch. Switch Lite is a, is a dud, but Facebook has a currency that's going to set the world on fire. I FY RE. I'll do that, whatever that was. I'm looking, I don't care about it, but I'm mad because it's called Libra, which is my star sign. Oh, and as you know, I'm a deep believer in astrology. You're on Coast Star every day. And I actually am. I do have a Coast Star account. I mean, why not?

Of course, I mean, it's one of the things that when I owned was using Android, which I'm not any more because fuck Android Apple rules. I'm just kidding, but I'm kidding on so many levels. But, Coastal was one of the things I was like, oh yeah, this is an Apple only, this is still like an iPhone only thing. Coastal is really dumb, but I do love like, it's funny to like read the astrology advice. And it's like your work life,

like stresses will come up at work, but you can handle them. They're always like, you're dating someone who might not be perfect for you, but you communicate, maybe they are. That's like, I'm married, so that's weird. They're like, you know what, it's hard reading the news. Yeah. Anyway.

They're always like, they're always like, you could feel, it's like things slow down in the middle of the week, keep going. It's like, okay, this is not. You want to indulge in all your vices, but you should. Yeah. It's like, don't eat the whole tub of ice cream. Thanks astrology app.

I didn't know that. I feel like you've really, a shine to libra. You're such a libra. You really, anyhow. So that's why I dislike Facebook's currency because it's called libra. And I think that's bullshit.

And they shouldn't be allowed to just co-op the libra star sign for their- I love that Mark Zuckerberg just doesn't be allowed to just co-opt the Libra star sign for their love that Mark Zuckerberg Just doesn't give a shit and the whole world is like we're worried about your company You seem like a bad person and you've got bad ideas and he's like, you know what? I'm gonna take over money I Can't believe people look at Facebook on a regular basis. I looked it as the other day and I have to say it's so Not interesting to me in any way shape or form on my birthday I thought I'm gonna get in indated with birthday Facebook stuff and luckily

I wasn't because I do have the like I think you there's a setting you can turn off where it doesn't tell people It was your birthday or whatever but when I did get it my mom posted something that was like happy birthday to my beautiful son Whatever and pictures of me as a baby and it was just tons of people I don't know the chinos saying like a vague happy birthday and I was like this is what Facebook is it's a picture of you Is a baby with a ton of people you barely know saying like I'm happy birthday and I was like, this is what Facebook is. It's a picture of you as a baby with a ton of people you barely know, saying like, I'm so happy you survived for 30 years or whatever, it's just bullshit.

I fucking every time I scroll through it. And then Facebook, one of the, their ads was like, you accidentally clicked on a Facebook ad for him's. Oh yeah, him. All I get now is ads for anti-aging stuff, but then Facebook has now. Many can, do you feel like that's wrong?

I Sorry, I don't Be rude. I want to be rude, but does that seem like the wrong ad to get it perfectly targeted But the thing is now I'm getting these ads that show the hymns logo and it's like you might have purchased this product Do you want to leave a review or like tell us what you thought about the ad and that comes up constantly. And I don't want to leave. Like Facebook is now trying to create a situation where I have to engage with their advertising partners directly in order to access like content that will further feed their advertising partner. Like it couldn't be more clear that this isn't about me or my social relationships or like being a useful like app to me, or a useful platform.

It's clear that their Facebook's, again, like I see where your bread is buttered. You only care about this one thing. And it makes it to the detriment of me caring about using your service. And like Twitter might be a huge dumpster fire, but at least I'm not constantly like interacting directly with there. Oh, you just loaded Twitter as I said that. I was like, wait, is it an ultra-fire? Let me check.

No, it truly is. Oh, no, look at this. I got locked into the fucking Twitter design, the new design. Oh, yeah. You can't get out now. Nope, that's really nice. Do you want to try it? I'm like, I'll try it again. I guess maybe they change it. Yeah, it's like, meth, though, you want to try it? Now you're on meth. Like, first hits free. Anyway, how? It's not cool. Um, man, cool. Speaking of new things, HBO has announced HBO Max,

which is their Disney Plus Netflix competitor. Oh, I just, I was just talking to my brother, yeah. Gossip Girl reboot. No. Yeah. Like what is that? Like the kids of the Gossip Girls or something? This girl keeps gossiping.

Isn't it pen badgly? It's also super out of it. No spoiler alert. Yeah, it's Dan. Even though I don't know that. No, Dan is. That's pen badgley's character. Do they like morph the voice at the end and it becomes like a dude's voice?

It's Kristen Bell being like, wait, is it Kristen Bell's voice? It's a crosser voice. Yeah, is it? Is it Kristen Bell's voice? Yeah, it's Kristen Bell's voice. She's not in the show though. Not. No.

But she was under contract to the CW, so they were like, she sounds great, let's use her. That's a, they were doing a reboot for their HBO Mac service, which is AT&T's like take on streaming. I get tired, I have direct TV now, and I'm so, I got PlayStation view. I'm so perilously close to canceling it all the time. They always do this weird shit. I'm like, it's like you don't have via comment anymore,

then it's like, sorry, your show time is gone. And it's like, actually you had 70 channels, now you have 20 channels, and I'm like, you don't have via comment anymore. Then it's like, sorry, your showtime is gone. And it's like, actually, you had 70 channels. Now you have 20 channels. And I'm like, hey guys, I just don't want to do this anymore. I don't want to be on this trip with you. Two things. For my dad's father's day present. All he wanted was to get rid of cable.

He didn't want cable vision. He wants to be a court-counter. Yeah, court-counter. And he wanted a PlayStation. And he wanted a PlayStation view. So he set him up. First thing he went was, can I watch him practical jokers?

They don't get spike. They don't get spike. What's in practical jokers? It's a show on psych. It's like a punk show. People, my dad's age, like, do Ellen style pranks on other people. Dude, I, I'm sorry, I don't want to be ages,

but like, boomers or older people in technology is such a nasty, horrible. He hates that the channels are coming in now, he doesn't know how it works. Oh my God. But he loves it because he's like, oh, fuck the cable company, whatever. He also begged to listen to this podcast when we were going up to Philly last week and to check out. Oh no, really? So I played the most recent episode. Wow. What are these staff to say? I said, you never heard it before.

He never heard it before. And I said, Dad, you're gonna hate it. Wow. What are these after? I said, you never heard it before? He never heard it before. And I said, Dad, you're gonna hate it. Like, you're gonna play. The last one. I go, you're gonna. I go, you're really gonna disagree. Yeah.

So bad. Anyway, great and review. I remember. Smash that like button. I said, you're gonna really disagree with everything you hear and I don't want you to get mad at me. And he was like, no, I won't. Like, you're funny.

I get it. I'm open minded. I put it on 40 minutes in. He goes, I'm putting something else on. I go, okay. Full minute of silence. Why we listen to like, Dan Haill and or something. And he goes, you know what? I'm actually pissed because you are so small-minded

about people that are conservative. And I was like, you were really? What were we talking about in the episode? I think you said something like, anyone who wants to vote for Trump has Rice Krispies for brains. He lost his mind and my mom goes, my mom goes, he told you and then a minute later after another minute of silence,

my dad's just seething. I can see him like heavy breathing. She goes, I mean, were they wrong? And then my dad lost it. And we didn't talk for like five hours. Did I say that? Did I actually say anyone who votes for Trump has Rice Krispies for brains?

That's so good. I mean, I can't believe I came up with that. That's a I'm like impressed with myself. I'm like, that's such a great description of that person. Anyhow listen, I'm sure your dad doesn't have Rice Krispies for brains. I'm sure his brains are made of something more substantial like Cheerios or lucky charms.

I don't want to be racist, but you know, but then he said to me, what's a TV show I should watch and I was still pissed at him when we were there. Oh, I know I know I know I know I know I know I know the perfect show for him the ash and kutcher show with the get the guy who got me to the tonnet flicks where they're on a ranch He's like the ranch the ranch. Yes. That's a show your dad should watch no. He loves shit's Greek He's got I know his TV tastes in and out. And then like a major gay character on that. Oh, I'm gonna get a huge gay ally. Oh he is.

He just loves Trump. I don't know, can't explain it. But so my true love. He's like, I love gays, but put them in camps and lock them away and kill them. That's my opinion. My troll for him was, I set you up with Hulu,

you should watch the Handmaid's Tale. Oh no. And he'd never heard of it and he was like, sure. And I was like secretly like, he, I got one over. Like he's gonna watch it and hate it. So he calls me and he goes. I love Ann Doud's character The aunt what it was like a psycho Nazi

Like Godspeople's quote that's the shit. That's the shit That's the shit that we're dealing with in America right now. He goes. I love her. What an actress? What a poor trip and doubt to her credit Ann dad is incredible, But this fucking center back shit, that's that. It's fine. And that is on my list is I know we don't, we're trying to avoid downers because y'all, all the listeners don't wanna hear downers, but they're too liberal.

But frankly, this center back shit is fucking crazy. We are really deep into, like someone is, a senator is gonna be assassinated because the president is using hate speech, which is classified by the federal government as hate speech. It's fine. It's totally fine. Go back to where you came from. Is an exact example in the in federal employment discrimination handbook that you can't use. And Trump is just throwing it around. Do you understand there are no there's no such thing as law anymore. There's just Megan McCain's opinion on the view. There's no order.

There's no, there's no morality. There's no ethics. There's no right. There's only wrong. Only evil. Only dark does that swallows us whole. Stranger thinks he's in three, starring Hopper. Whatever, isn't it?

Mindfully the harbor. You can buy a pop of a vinyl burger. It presents. Virgay presents the mind slayer. Coca-Cola, it's sponsored mind. Yeah, no, look, look. We leave it in hell. We are actually, look, we're in the darkest time line.

Listen, the Jews in Germany had it worse. But that's bad. But at one point in the timeline, because at the certain point in the timeline, yes. I mean, listen, all we can do, I feel beat up because there's no point, there's no That's a bad point in the timeline. Because at that certain point in the timeline, yes. I mean, listen, all we can do, I feel beat up. There's no point, there's no point in talking about this. All that can be done, there's only one thing to be done. Vote these people out of fucking office.

If you don't vote, if you don't go out and droves, if it isn't on the landslide fucking Democratic victory, I don't care who it is, I don't care if it is a fucking Cartman from South Park running for the democratic nomination, if you don't go out and vote in droves, you have done this to yourself. You have only yourself to blame. Now, if there are people, if there are enough quote unquote Democrats in this country who really don't care about the rest of this culture, the society, and American existence

and their country, then maybe we're living in a chapel world. Maybe we're living in a red scare world. Maybe everybody is actually just actually a fake fucking Nazi, like a Nazi who's pretending to be into socialism who actually doesn't care about people of color, LGBTQ people or disenfranchised people. Like I don't know, maybe we really live in a country that has no compassion.

And if that's the case, then let it be done. Like let's burn it to the fucking ground. My brother text me yesterday and the thing that really pushed him to be like, I can't deal with the GOP and like that ideology. He's always very centrist, he's always very like people of the people. Did he vote for Trump? My brother is 18 or 19.

What would he vote for Trump? No, I don't think he would have. But he usually checks in with me sometimes when things in politics or whatever. And he wants to have a little discussion just to hear two sides or whatever. I, the thing that really upset him yesterday that I got a text that he was like, I can't believe this was the Rand Paul 9-11 response or responders stuff. What? So the 9-11 responders healthcare bill, like the victims fund for 9-11 went up for, was

supposed to be going up for a vote and Rand Paul personally blocked it. And 9-11 responders were there to see like a historic moment where the, like for the rest of their lives, they would be covered for their work and Rand Paul blocked it and obviously did it at the behest of the GOP Like he was gonna take this bullet for them and trade for something else And it was one of the first times that my brother expressed like true like absolute disgust and I think he it has been Fomenting or whatever, but I do think people disengaged with politics. There are these moments like Ilhan Omar, this 9-11 thing, Trump's tweets, racist tweets, the recent ones, obviously they've gone back for 10 years,

but the recent ones, I think they have been flashpoints coming up that people are like, oh, this is who they really are. There's no reasoning, there's no background, there's no like, oh, you can't just call people Nazis because they disagree about demographics, blah, oh, this is who they really are. There's no reasoning, there's no background, there's no like, oh, you can't just call people Nazis because they disagree about demographics, blah, blah, blah. Like, Jerry Mandering gets into places where you're like, this is a norm or whatever. I think these are moments where people,

and I'm hope that they keep coming up as horrible as they will be because I want the group of people to show their true colors, but they really feel. I think it's telling that Trump had this response to the center back chant, which is like, oh, I didn't agree with it. I couldn't really, I guess he was like,

I couldn't really do anything about it. And it's like, I think it is a testament that it matters that he even had to have that kind of response. Because the typical Trump response would be like, what, you know, the base is getting fired up. Like it's cool or whatever. Yeah. Like I do think it's interesting.

Um, I don't know. I just like, to me, it's, it's one of those things where I have never for one second and we'll never understand a person who votes for Trump. Like I just don't, you know, it's like voting for stupidity over intelligence. and we'll never understand a person who votes for Trump. Like I just don't, you know, it's like voting for stupidity over intelligence. That's the way I see it. It's like voting for, I'm not saying it's voting for like right and wrong.

To me, it's voting for closed-mindedness and ignorance and stupidity over, like open-mindedness and understanding and intelligence. And like that's it. And like, that's it. For me, that's the whole thing in life. Like, who are you as a person? Are you, do you want to help people? Do you want to understand them?

Are you optimistic about who they are? Do you think the world could be better? Do you want to not just protect yourself and your family, but the people, the other humans near you, that it's optimism versus pessimism. Like is everybody out to get it? Like you're either in a death call or you're not. You're either in a death call or a life call.

I'm in a life call. I'm like, let's fucking listen. If he wins a reelection, I want us to have a blood orgy where we summon the people who just do that. I mean, that I meant to. I mean, that I meant to. I watched years and years on HBO,

and there's a character who's like actively fighting every day, she barely sees her family, she's an activist. She's on the front lines injuring herself and a nuclear bomb goes off and she's exposed to radiation because she's on the ground. I feel like you're a spoiler in this for me. This is like episode one and she goes in and there's a chaos candidate. What is this show?

What does it show about? It's about, it's basically the future. It's like a dystopia, but it's 20 years and it's hyper realistic. It doesn't do anything. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. Is it good? Is it good? Yes. Oh wow. The dystopia is contained to conversations where they go. I wanted to get you a chocolate birthday cake because it's your favorite, but you can't buy chocolate anymore. Yeah. Little side things like that. And you see these people's lives progress and what the effects of

the whole. Who are these people? It's in the UK. It's a middle class family. Oh, British. It's really good though. I don't think I can handle it. It's great. UK. It's a middle class family. Oh, British. It's really good though. I don't think I can handle it. It's great. I don't know. Russell Tovies in it. Listen, I love the British. Show me your ears. Go from one room to the other. Although, listen, I can't stand the British.

As you all know. Well, no. But she votes for the chaos candidate. And I was like, if Trump wins this, I might be full chaos. I might be chaotic evil where I'm just like, what is there? What more chaos is there? Let's go to Mad Max World. Let's just get full energy. I don't think he has to do it. Or get it all down. No, I think you're, what is there? What more chaos? Let's go to Mad Max world. Let's just get full.

Anarchy. I don't think it's a journey. It's just one. No, I think you're good. I think you're well on the way. If he, if Trump gets reelected, there's no, the America's done. America's over. I already said when he got elected, the first time I said whatever, I remember

tweeting this. I was like, whatever previous version of America we had had, it's gone. Like America's over. That version of it is over. Now, if he wins wins again we really are like we're past the point of no return it's it's not clear what will happen in this country in the next you know but the level of absurdity I mean did you see the thing in florida florida city was trying to uh florida city was trying to drive out homeless people by playing that baby shark song that viral like Oh, yeah, the other doesn't song. Uh-huh. They were playing it on a loop. Baby shark.

Do do do do do do baby shark. Yeah, they spend money on that rather than homeless shelters because they wanted to get the homeless people out of their cheaper to be honest. I mean, it was just like in their defense. It's probably less expensive. We live in I know fucking in one of those refrigerator magnet. Well well random word generator, but we are but we are also I'm sensitive, but we are also like we also have to like That we cannot you cannot eat the elephant hole You have to take it one bite at the time And I do think that Twitter and the internet for all the good it can do has perverted and Twisted our view of what we have, like what we are involved in.

And like that sounds horrible and it is horrible. But there's something horrible going on down the street here. Yeah, right now, there's a party going on and that I'm not attending. I wasn't invited and I'm very upset about it. How, what can I do about that problem right now, right here, as opposed to the baby shark situation in this Florida town, which let's go all, I don't know, like,

Tampa for life a better city. Tampa City. Palmeadow. Palmeadow. West Palm Beach. No. And any rate. So what I'm saying is like, I agree with you. But I think we need to disco bar hell world a little bit, you know, just kind of like shave off some of the space that it occupies. Well, it is the thing where you wake up every morning, you look at Twitter and you're like, all these horrible things happened in the world today. And it's like, well, the world is really big

and I can't take those all in. Yeah. Yeah. I've been actively fighting depression and it's hard because the same response to the world is at the moment is to be fucking depressed. As soon as I was honest, looking at people who just seem like, oh, I'm in Mekano's

and I have perfect skin, I'm like, kill yourself. You're part of the problem. Apparently, they've made a cat's movie, I'm just learning. Oh, yeah, did you see that? In the trailer for the cat's movie, James Quiddins says the quote, I mean, these are people, but they're cats. And then they tout their digital fur technology. It's stars James Gordon Taylor Swift and Jason

to Rulow. Oh my God, it's like the worst group. And they built sets to scale so that they could be the cats. Are you looking at the cats trailer right now? I gotta see it. I'm sorry. It's only two minutes long Ew is it so swift? Yep It's horrifying it looks like they look like avatar creatures, but the cats version of the avatar creatures where are their genitals? They're not wearing they're not wearing parents and if you if you wanted to know a fun fact about cats their penises are barbed so that they cannot be removed during sex Same episode 169 baby No

No This is really a nightmare. This is seriously like um This is what Ariana Grande's whole life has led up to is being a real life cat She in this no she should have been Katz is also a bad musical God James Corden looks like the penguin and Batman returns I Trace Elba wow Jennifer Hudson oh Geez Ian McAllen is in there. Oh

My god, I Love cats as an animal, but I am fully a dog person. I have to. Sorry. This is the most fucked up thing I've ever seen in my entire life. I'm not going to lie to you. This makes Trump being president look like a regular meal at McDonald's. So much. Doesn't this seem like a plot on 30 rock and Jenna Maroney starts in this movie? Yes. seem like a plot on 30 rock and Jenna Maroney stars in this movie. Yes. Uh, well, speaking of, uh, speaking of, of CGI abominations, the Lion King comes out today. More like the Lion King because I thought this movie was going to be great. But they live in any sense.

Um, the lion. I don't, I don't care. I just don't care. I'm sorry. I know it's illegal for me to say. I know it's illegal for me to say. I know it's wrong for me to say that I don't care about the movie where Beyonce is a major player. And I love Beyonce.

Don't love her. Love him. Billy Eichner. He's okay. Now he's fine. You know, I love a lot of these people, but I just don't want to see a live. I don't want to see a live action version of the Lion King. I'll go to the zoo and listen to the original Lion King score. That's that.

What's what I wanted to see? I'll put on. I'll put on my Simba cosplay and relive the experience of the Lion King on my own. Your mentions are going to be full of people telling you Ariel, the little mermaid should be white. Well, they're wrong. Who cares? Who cares? I love that suddenly people are really concerned about red They heard about what's going on with frozen on Broadway? What's going on in president Broadway? I mean What's his name Christoff Christoff is played by a black man? I think I stop everything Solve this immediately

I just like I don't know send him home I just like you this is like the lady goes buster's thing. It's stupid. So if you have time to give a fuck about this, there's something wrong with you. Yeah, your life must be fantastic. Like if you actually care, if it rises to a level of I give a shit,

you are a loser who sucks. Like I'm sorry, there's no other way to say it. You care what Ariel skin tone is. But frankly, it's just, it is also ties into the fact that Disney people are the worst. One of the Disney fans are the worst fans. It's like, it's like the idea that you, but it's kind of Disney's fallen away because they're like, here's a one-to-one recreation of this thing. And it's like, oh wait a second, now this white character is black,

this doesn't make any sense. And also Walt Disney himself hated Jews. Sure, well, I mean, who does it? No, but um, but I think that, I think that, uh, you know, listen, there's a lot of racist people out there. There's a lot of people who have trouble with new ideas. There are mostly, there are a lot of people who can't imagine anyone else having a different experience. And I think about this all the time because I have a daughter. I get to see the world, I get to see the world through the eyes of my five year old daughter. And what I see is...

Everyone hates women. Well yes, but more than that, what I see is that people don't have trouble imagining what it might be like for someone else. And I think, maybe that's empathy, but like the inability to put yourself in the person from the, in the mind or in the shoes. It's an ox versus them thing, where if anybody else

has a chance to do something, you feel like it takes away from you. But I also think- White people have never experienced this. No, no, but I also think it's like, I think it's like, man have never experienced this. Why agree, but I also think it's a little bit more nuance, which is like, it's like you, you, a white person,

grew up with the little mermaid being a white girl, 14 year old white girl. Which seems right to you, which seems right, with a fish body. That seems right to you. You're like, that's all I have, but. You're like, this all had to be like, this is normal and good, and I understand it innately.

But that seems right to you. And then it's like the new aerial in for 2019, that was made in 1992 or something. The new aerial is not going to be white because it's made to the evening. And maybe whatever. That's the year that Batman Tim Burton's Batman came out. If the year I was born, incredible year.

So many amazing things. So many amazing things were released to the public. Thanks mom. For pushing the release date to the line. I was a summer blockbuster. The, you know what? You've definitely used these lines before. I have never.

I'm so happy. But you know, I think it's one of these things where it's like you can't go, okay, I get it. Like I remember, I have never. I'm so happy. Um, but you know, I think it's one of these things where it's like, you can't go, okay, I get it. Like I remember I'm familiar with Ariel as this version of Ariel, but like, maybe that's not the only person who will ever see Ariel. Maybe that's not the only audience that is interested in Ariel. Maybe there's a story that could appeal to people who otherwise can't see themselves in the character because they otherwise can't see themselves in the character, because they literally can't see themselves in the character. So, I think that ability to just go like, well, I have my association with it.

Like, you know, people are running around like, Jesus is a white guy. Most people think Jesus was white. Jesus was definitely not white. He was not a white person. He was not a Caucasian. He was a tree. He was not a Caucasian. That's right.

He was not a Caucasian from Chicago, you know, like, he definitely was really darks kids. And like, and from like, the Middle East. Nobody comes up with the idea that I was, I'm the son of God that is like doing great. I mean, Jesus like definitely doesn't look like how much of a thing. And then when people see like a dark

lasting cheat for Jesus and that kid. I mean, I'm sure, listen, I'm sure when they put out the film version of Jesus Christ's Superstar in Judas was black, which by the way has all sorts of weird undertones and connotations that in that era in the 70s was probably like suspect. But I'm sure people are like a black Judas does also make any sense, you know?

But then you show them a black Jesus and their brains completely explode, but the reality is like, you know, you have your associations with things and if you can't see beyond that, then like you really just like, you really have a limited view of like the world. I'm rambling now, but-

Oh, we've done it. We've solved racism. We've solved hate. We got rid of all the misrepresentation of transgender people in films and trees. Scarlett Johansson will now exclusively play trees, but only birch trees, which are very white. Let's do nice things.

You know what, actually Scarlett Joh, Jewish, a lot of people don't know that. So technically can play anything she wants. Okay. Nice things. Do you wanna go first? Sure. I have a great nice thing, by the way,

that's a very on topic. Do you wanna go first? No, you go ahead. Please just, is it a lot of things though? No, it's one. I turned 30. Happy birthday. Thank you. It went fine. I did not accept the award. I continued to be 28 for all intensive purposes, but John surprised me on my birthday and took me to dinner in a movie because I asked to do nothing big. I didn't want things that are about me that I don't feel like I've earned. I don't like, I don't want my wedding to be a thing where everyone's like, congratulations, I'm like, I didn't really do this.

I just met some guy that I like. It doesn't feel like it's like a special accomplishment to live together. Maybe you should have a wedding. Maybe we shouldn't, but John Wands won. So I had a 30th, I had my 30th, I'm doing a karaoke party in a week or whatever, and that'll be fun. But he took me out to dinner as a surprise and he took me as a surprise one. Uh, so I had a 30, I had my 30th, I'm doing a karaoke party in a week or whatever, and that'll be fun. But he took me out to dinner as a surprise and he took me as a surprise

to Lady Gaga's family restaurant, Joanne, uh, which is an Italian restaurant on the Upper West side that does very well for itself. It has good reviews as just a restaurant. The food was fantastic. I had a lovely time. However, I that morning did not know where I was going and wore a Britney Spears t-shirt like big block letters Oh my god with her face on it and went to Joanne and then you go to Joanne like a casual situation like that. Yep. Oh wow and I did not I Thought that's funny and we took a picture and I was like did know where I was going should have wore my goggles Shared ha ha ha I sat down for dinner and I sat down right next to her dad Lady Gaga's dad. He sat next to her dad. Well, he got those dad.

He sat next to us for all of dinner and he had a bunch of friends and they were actively debating co-op board bylaws or whatever. He seems like a funny cool guy but they were very deep in the little. I see like a Trump guy, do you think? I don't think so. I was like, you told me this before

and you're like, I said he's her dad. I was like, Andrew Dice Clay. Honestly, I was like, if I was gonna cast him in a movie, it would have been Andrew Dice Clay. So, don't you ever treat my daughter like that. He was like, the co-op board says we can't move the thing, but I said, I'm gonna move it, and you will tell me, and I will talk to the police, and his friends are like,

hey, and that's what we said next to. And I had this giant Britney Spears feature on it. Of course, I'm very highly doubt he noticed. Of course he wouldn't, but of course I did. Hey, I love your shirt. Oh, so I'm anxious to tell, so I'm Brittany Spears, you're John. Of course, I'm very highly doubt he noticed. Of course he wouldn't, but of course I did. Hey, I love your shirt. Oh, so I'm anxious to tell, so I'm saying very loudly that I like her and John was like, he's gonna notice you doing that

and he wouldn't have noticed the t-shirt, but I can't stop myself. Anyway, we had a very fun time. What a nightmare. Took my birthday cake to go. We went to see Mid-Somar. Oh yes, yeah. Fantastic movie.

Yes, he is. He's a wonderful, very upsetting Swedish cult stuff, young people on a trip, horror, iconic visuals, all hitting on all quadrants for right. We saw a man-ass full frontal. It was everything I asked for in a movie. You're saying man-ass and full frontal? Full frontal. That's the full page right there.

It's the full page. I was like, this is Ryan. I know we're still, I think we're all still so impressed. We see like a dick in a movie. I know. As if it's not readily available. I saw a penis, it's like, okay, but literally that's all that's on the internet. There is nothing else.

It's 99% erect penises and Google to find erect penises. But it is maybe the most anxiety producing movie I've seen in a really long time, but I had been so anxious about this Joanne stuff that My baseline was already fried so I loved it We sat front row because the people we sat next to when our chosen seats talked to the home movie I couldn't take that so we moved. I loved a bit so much. Are you sure? I don't see it. Why are they killing each other? Yeah, oh this girl was trying to impress her date And I was like this is not a venue for your stand-up audition

She's like this is normal in Swedish culture. We're two seconds in she goes. I hate it already Ha ha ha. I was like oh so funny. You're so funny. So we move review We moved to the front. I watched it was very surreal. I had a wonderful time So go see Midsomar turn 30 eat it lady Gaga's restaurant ask to sit next to her dad Everything was great like how you like, it's one thing, but that was actually like six things. Sure, I fit them all in. Okay, let me give you my nice thing.

I'm an onion, I have layers like a shrek. First off, we went on vacation for a week. I don't wanna say where, because I don't wanna ruin it, but it is a place that not a lot of people go. Fire Island! It's Fire Island, that is. No, we go to a place that we love that I would like

to move to, and maybe I will at some point in the My mom's trust with this place. It's an island. Let's just put it that way. My mom loves this It's not and it's not talks about it all and it's it's part of America The why okay, okay, I don't know Don't tell anybody about why it drops. It's not why the drops of wild shit on you I took my PlayStation with me. We stated a house that we rented I took my PlayStation 4 with me because I at a house that we rented. I took my PlayStation forward with me because I was like, you know what, I'm gonna game.

I'm in a game. I'm in a game. I'm a gamer. I'm a gamer. I'm a member of gamer gate. And I loved a game and also destroyed the careers of journalists. And anyhow, so I was like, you know what?

I'm kind of bored of all the games I'm playing. And they had a sale on, there's a bunch of sales, like the PlayStation started a big sale. And one of the sales all the games I'm playing and they had a sale on, there's a bunch of sales, the PlayStation's right, a big sale. And one of the sales was the BioShock Collection. Yeah, they had their cool retro sale. Yeah, the retro sale. And they had the, definitely, they had the BioShock Collection

and it was like 15 bucks for all three games, which I've all played all of. And I downloaded them and I started playing BioShock Infinite, which, which I have to say, I love it. Is I honestly don't think that you could make, that this game could be made now and would be released as a triple A title, like as a major triple A, like title for gamers. Bioshock Infinite is 155% addressing American racism, like actual slavery and racism

in non-sugar-coded terms. Remember when Far Cry came out, Far Cry 5, and it was like, oh, it's gonna be about the alt-right Nazis, and it's gonna be about how they suck in our bad and- Yeah, but it was like, it was like a baby America. And they're like, oh, we're a religious called and there's some black members too. So we're not racist and whatever. This was like, this, this game is like, it's like, I think came out 2013. And I remember playing it, but I, and I remember all this stuff, but it's like kind of like rejogging these memories. It's unabashedly like a kind of critical,

weird fantasy about like an America that could have been that's like utterly at its core like racist and evil. It's like, there's like, the characterizations of Jews as like literally like kind of Nazi era hooknose sort of criminals. There's like the Chinaman is like a character in the game where it's like, you know, not a character in the game, but like something that's talked about

is like a threat to America. I mean, literally like such a reflection of America right now. And there's a ton about slavery and sort of the core racism of America, which is, you know, which is racism against African-American people. And I think that it's just such a daring shocking, I mean, meanwhile, it's just such a daring, shocking,

I mean, meanwhile, it's also happens to be like a rip-roar in action game, which is weird, because it's like, it is actually like a really good action game. But like, it's also like got a ton of really fucked up commentary on America. And I'm just like, kind of blown away that it ever got made. You know, and kind of blown away that it got made and that like, I don't know if you could do it now. Like, I don got made and that like I don't know if you could do it now like I don't know if it I don't know if these game publishers would have the fucking guts

To be that unabashedly critical because we live in a world now where it's like, well, maybe I don't know I mean sure race was bad races bad about how bad is it really? I mean we don't want to offend there's a lot of people out there who game who are racist We don't want to that's literally what they did with far cry Five they were like we don't offend the guys who are these guys It's like why not and why are you pulling punches if the right of your thing right any hide? It's a very to any of my so my recommendation is by a shock infinite but also just like You were completely off of Twitter also going on vacation. Oh, yeah, I did it's great. Fuck Twitter. Fuck it. Fuck the internet You know, I'm gonna do an English one island. I'm gonna make furniture great. Fuck Twitter. Fuck it. Fuck the internet. You know
