Yeah, I know you wanted me to sing, everybody.
Starting point is 00:03:14 But it's Black History Month. I'm keeping my vocal cords on rest. And I'm giving you the dulcet tones of Cheryl Lee Rapp singing the Black National Anthem. Killing it. The best national anthem I've ever seen sang on the Super Bowl stage. That was the Rihanna concert before the Rihanna concert. Yes.
Starting point is 00:03:34 What up, everybody? I am here. I am back. It feels so good to be back, everybody. And of course, what up, Negroes? White folks, I got to say something to y'all, too. I got to say something to y'all, too. All right.

Have I ever been to tree people?
Starting point is 00:06:06 Oh, the place. Yeah. I know what you're talking about, but it sounds like somewhere black people aren't welcome. So I've never been. It does kind of give that. No, it's actually really cute and like hippie-ish. And people donate trees like, I guess when they die or whatever. They donate like themselves to become trees when they die?
Starting point is 00:06:25 I don't know if they're in the trees. And I was curious about that. I wanted to know. Sounds very morbid. You're walking through a beautiful forest and you're like, that was a human at one time. That's Ted. That's Tommy over there. Angela.
Starting point is 00:06:39 My blood and guts nourished the roots of this tree. Honestly, I would go then. If that was the premise, I would go to that shit every day. No, that sounds great. I'm glad that you did the Black History Month thing because my Black History Month hasn't been that great. I got a ticket. See? Yeah, from the police for speeding.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Now, did I deserve it? Listen, I was late. I'm 400 years late because of the police hear me out i'm 400 years late because of oppression okay so i gotta speed i gotta do 66 and a 35 that's my business we gotta we gotta we gotta make up for lost time that's why we gotta get there quicker exactly he said where were you going i should have said to freedom and then maybe we got out of the ticket yeah i didn't think of any of this at the time i was just hoping i didn't get you know you know how the cops be so i was just like sorry mr sir please back the blue i'm gonna say i'm gonna say you didn't deserve it i'm gonna say you didn't deserve
Starting point is 00:07:39 it and you know what i didn't i didn't deserve i didn't get a be Beyonce coat. And I don't deserve that during Black History Month. I know there's some white folks out there that got the coats for Beyonce that y'all didn't come up off them coats for your black brothers and sisters. And I see you. I just want y'all to know that. That would have been allyship. I got the coat last night, though. And I'm in there. I'm in there.
Starting point is 00:08:03 MetLife Stadium. Good view. Nice view. I'm not going to get Beyonce's'm in there. MetLife Stadium. Damn. Good view. Nice view. I'm like, I'm not going to get Beyonce's sweat on me, which is what I wanted,
Starting point is 00:08:10 but I am going to see, you know, her pores. Yo, when the ticket's so expensive, Lacey can't get Beyonce's sweat on her because Lacey out here
Starting point is 00:08:18 balling out of control, y'all. Oh my God, don't do that. Y'all, I am poor. Stop that. Why would you say something so egregious? when they eat the rich they're not coming for me with the with the tulip no absolutely no i will be eating with
Starting point is 00:08:31 everybody else i feel like the beyonce tickets are the latest like not since the like people were getting the shot like and and people wanted the shot or like did you know like that everybody wanted the same shot and that like it's the great beyonce tickets are the great equalizer where it's like everybody wants these tickets and if you get it you are just a better human being than i think the rest of us so which which checks out i mean yeah i don't i didn't have a code to come up off of unfortunately yeah jack why don't you give us your code give us your code jack yeah we were actually talking about you yeah yeah you can tell i give off vibes like i have beyonce code
Starting point is 00:09:17 you actually do you actually do you get them you get them iheart codes that's huge for me i didn't yeah i i do think iheart had like something that was allowing people to like get in line or something but i don't think it was allowing people to get in a line that led to getting beyonce's sweat on them okay yeah my thing is like i'm tired of the resellers like i am a scammer i love scam culture however like do the work like kim kardashian said like nobody wants to work these days like how are you just gonna have a bot steal a bunch of tickets and then flip them online like if you want to flip a ticket you should have to go in person like they did in the olden days and scalp and have them inside of your jacket you gotta wear
Starting point is 00:10:00 a trench coat it's gotta be long and you. And you got to have a massage jacket like Hustle Man. And you got to, you know, show your wares out in the parking lot. Like, I don't like that you can just steal them on the Internet and flip them on the Internet. There's no work involved in that. Yeah, just a bunch of like Stanford computer science grads are like controlling the all the tickets to all the shows in the history of. Yeah. Boo. Boo. I don't like it all right lacy we're gonna get to know you a little bit better in a moment first a couple of the things we're talking about uh we're gonna talk about the airborne toxic event that happened in ohio last week and kind of got ignored by the mainstream media i mean there were a couple mentions here and there, but it just, yeah, it's another textbook case. Like,
Starting point is 00:10:46 we've told the story before, but we will keep telling it of corporations working so that they don't have to follow regulations that lead to, you know, horrible things for the rest of us. And then the media is just like, okay, moving along, moving along. We're going to talk about the balloons. Everybody's talking about the balloons. Although I don't even know if we know that it was a balloon, these last two. But they keep shooting things out of the sky, UFOs. So we'll talk about that because, you know, I'm interested in that shit. We'll talk about those Jesus-themed Super Bowl commercials, which...
Starting point is 00:11:21 Hell yeah. Yeah. Aimed at people who've never heard of Jesus. I'm always confused about the idea behind the Super Bowl ad. Some of these are... Yeah, like Bud Light.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Do they think we haven't heard of it? I'm always confused. But this one in particular confused me. And when you dig in, it's pretty dark. The backstory is pretty fucked up. All of that, plenty more. But first, Lacey Mosley, we like to ask our guest, what is something from your search history?
Starting point is 00:11:56 I have been stalking Steve Lacey as of late. So my search history is a lot of Steve Lacey. Steve Lacey is, he played in the the band the internet which i love and then he just won a grammy but he had that really popular tiktok song i was like i wish i knew you wanted me yeah and so i just was like this man is so beautiful and then like he's so cool i know he is you know sometimes he's gay sometimes he's bad but mostly he's gay and i'm like damn i can't be with him because i'd be lacy lacy and like i'm so into that oh my god but but he does spell his last name with a y so yes so i'd be like a little lacy with a y come on i once dated a crazy ass man whose name lacy and the reason that we stayed
Starting point is 00:12:42 together for so long was because his name was Lacey. And I just, I couldn't get over it. Yeah. I love this for you. I love it. There's all sorts of statistics that like people with the name Dennis are more likely to become dentists, which doesn't,
Starting point is 00:12:56 I've never believed it, but like people claim that the statistics are there, but maybe this is an example where you were just naturally. Yeah. They also become a menace. As, they also become a menace. As children. Well, Dennis are menaces. They are.
Starting point is 00:13:08 Also, Dennis was one of those names when I was growing up where all my black ass like family and friends was like, if your name is Dennis and your name is Jacob, you bad. Like those two names equated to being bad as kids. And then they always was, man. I knew a couple of Dennis's. I knew a couple of Dennis's. I knew a couple of Jacob's. And the niggas was bad. It was bad. So that's what I equate Dennis with.
Starting point is 00:13:31 And they grew up to be Dennis. Dennis the dentist, who's also a menace. I hope you get to Steve Lacey, Trey. I hope you get to Steve Lacey, Lacey. I hope you get it. I hope you get him. He can sing Sweet Nothings in your ear. I saw him live last year just at the Echo.
Starting point is 00:13:50 And my man, my man, my man, he can sing. My man can sing. He gives me Prince vibes, and I need that because Prince left such a huge hole in my heart. The reason my walls are this color is because I replicated the I Will Die For You album cover in my apartment. I painted the whole place. I didn't realize how much I loved Prince until I did a podcast. But, yeah, I love. So, I was like, he's replacing a little bit of the Prince hole in my heart.
Starting point is 00:14:10 Also, his TikToks, like, of his concerts are amazing. Because, you know, he was popular on TikTok. So, like, what Jaquise was talking about earlier with the Beyonce tickets. Like, a bunch of people started buying up his concert tickets who were just, like, Gen Z kids who didn't know his music. So, he would, like, hold his mic out. And he'd be like, they would get past the chorus and everybody'd be like uh uh we don't that's all we got for you my guy and sometimes he would like do the hyper sped up version of the tiktok chunk like of the song just to yeah because he's sick of these he's sick of these kids the kids would
Starting point is 00:14:40 be like can you say hi to my mom he's like can you be quiet and then starts the music back he's done and i love him i love him i love that for you let's make it happen manifesting what is something you think is overrated going viral i'm so tired of y'all trying to go viral everywhere trying to go viral at the grocery store trying to go viral at the funeral home trying to go you know what i mean like you don't need a tic-tac next you know next to your grandpapa casket like we don't need this nobody needs this and i'm so tired of going on instagram i rarely get on there i rarely post now because it's just become so sad to me like my whole timeline and and it's not just like entertainers it's like i understand entertainers trying to get their numbers up because that's how we get jobs now it's trash out here too leslie but but it's just like but you're an accountant in ohio i know you work for h&r block like sis why are you playing like like why are you dancing all the time now
Starting point is 00:15:35 this is confusing to me i want you to get on instagram and share too much of your personal business i want you to open your front facing camera and cry. I want you to talk shit about your ex. I don't want to get on there and watch you dance. I'm tired. You're not trying to see Dennis, the dentist from Ohio, shake his ass and talk like he has a million followers. You're like,
Starting point is 00:16:01 Hey guys, thanks for, it's like, you have 42 followers. What do you mean guys? Nobody's going to see this. Hey y'all, it's me. And then when they be thanks for it's like you have 42 followers what you mean guys nobody's gonna see this hey y'all it's me and then when they be like it's me we know girl you don't have to say that that's right yeah yeah we're very well aware it's you it's a visual medium what's something you think is underwritten a good mattress and good pillows
Starting point is 00:16:24 preach girl uh you fight you finally in your 30s huh something you think is underrated? A good mattress and good pillows. Preach, girl. You finally in your 30s, huh? Arch support. Arch support is underrated. Gives you a good sturdy base to work from throughout your day.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Gotta get some good soles. Welcome to the other side, Lacey. Welcome to the other side lacy welcome to the other side i was really down bad i thought your bed was i'm so serious when i say this i thought your bed was supposed to be uncomfortable so you want to get up early and get out of it because like if it's too comfortable you want to sleep all day that's wild why why did i think that? That's some, that's some, that's some, I'm in my 20s shit. Yeah. That's in some like grind influencer
Starting point is 00:17:08 like thing. Like, you gotta sleep on a bed of nails if you wanna get up at four in the morning and get your, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:16 My bed, my bed is truly the most expensive thing in my fucking house. 100% the most expensive thing in my house is my bed. I think it should be.
Starting point is 00:17:24 And Jack, not you telling me I was out here living like LLC Twitter, but house is my bed. I think it should be. And Jack, not to tell me I was out here living like LLC Twitter, but you are not wrong. I was rising and grinding. How dare I? Oh my God, what a terrible life to live. I sleep so much better now that I wake up rested and I get out of the bed and I was like, oh, you're not supposed to like the rock sleeps standing up and so i do too i only close one eye when i sleep i'll be okay you gotta stay up half a brain hemisphere at a time yeah what they say they say like the two things you should spend the most not spend spend the most money on, but like prioritize your comfort is your bed and your car. Because you're in or you're in or on those two things the most generally like in your life for shit that you can actually control to buy. So, yes, get the mattresses and buy your Audis, everybody.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Buy your Teslas. You promoting Lante's businesses on this podcast yeah i am i am and i got i got a card uh code for y'all if y'all need to buy a new car it was black history month we are only promoting black owned car businesses yes so none i was gonna say which which one which one walk right you had boy you almost made me say some racist shit like somebody goes dragging me like no there was black man created car i'm sure there was oh y'all i don't i just don't know it okay did you guys see elon at the super bowl with uh what's his name fox news old uh rupert murdoch just chilling together yeah i'm so blessed i
Starting point is 00:19:02 missed that celebrity cutaway. I'm so blessed. I didn't see it. Did you guys watch the Super Bowl? Oh, of course. I watched the Rihanna concert. I did. I watched the Super Bowl and then the Rihanna concert. It was good.
Starting point is 00:19:20 It was a good game until the last minute. It was such a good game. And, okay, I amboys fan so i'm so sorry i like jaylen but there was just no way i could root for the eagles and so was i praying on their downfall absolutely did i pray that every weapon formed against them would prosper you know it like did i want everything and everywhere all at once to be awful for sure but i did feel bad that the rough ended up making that call and that really influenced the game so much to me that i was like the mob is gonna break that ref's legs i hope they got security for him because that was like i feel like a game changing call like that
Starting point is 00:19:55 like it's kind of cheap in the super bowl especially because it was so close the whole time yes you can't make that call right there and also look I didn't have a dog in the race. So, Lacey, I understand. I forgive. I understand the loyalty to the teams that you love and hate based off your own fanship. So, like, I 100% rock with that stance. I was rooting for the Eagles because a few years ago when Patrick Williams was in the Super Bowl against the 49ers quarterback. We was rooting for the black quarterback. We had two black quarterbacks today. So I was rooting for the full black quarterback.
Starting point is 00:20:31 I was rooting for the dark-skinned quarterback. All right. That's how I made my choice. Not the two fists. Not the three fists. I was coming out with the two fists. and i did not i was i was coming out with the two fists the one who can pick his hair don't need you know the one who can actually pick his hair out into a real fro uh that's who i was rooting for but i i we did not prevail so you went hard to the phenotype
Starting point is 00:20:57 okay but i'm happy i'm happy i'm still happy that you know we we at least getting a half black quarterback becoming like the best quarterback in today's age so i i'm rocking with that and i mean they also made history by just playing as black quarterbacks in the super bowl which has always been like a little you know racist thing where it's like that position obviously is coveted like you're protected and that's why they're like only a white man yeah they're like well these negroes can throw do not like that yes let them throw guys i don't know what y'all want yeah we talked about that on the show before that like warren moon had a support group for black quarterbacks in the nfl because it was just such a mind fuck and just a horrible like psychological terrorism that happens to you when you're a black quarterback for an NFL team.
Starting point is 00:21:47 It's like being black in a fan base. Don't join no fandom when you're black. They're going to tell you that. It tore me apart. Oh, I know. I remember. I'll never go to Brazil. I'll never go to Brazil. I hate Brazil as a country. I wish nothing but the worst
Starting point is 00:22:02 on y'all. They were on one for a little bit. Leave Brazil cheese bread alone. Leave the Brazilian steakhouses and cheese bread. We will take your cheese bread and steakhouses. We'll take those. Leave them.
Starting point is 00:22:16 Leave them. Leave those here. I do just have to give a shout out to the Philadelphia fan base for rioting after losing and the ch chance were like fuck the Chiefs. They're just like mad at the team for being good. They didn't really have like I assumed it was going to be like the refs like robbed us. And I'm sure there was some of that.
Starting point is 00:22:37 But like mainly they were just they're just mad. They weren't like trying to pretend like it was anything else. Always impressively stupid fan fandom coming out of the Philly area. Oh, for sure. I respect. But also, like, let's not forget that even if they had won, they were still going to be outside rioting because that's what they do. The last time they won the Super Bowl, they eat like there was there's video of somebody eating a piece of horse shit in the street in celebration like if you had to judge philadelphia like if you couldn't watch the super bowl and all you could
Starting point is 00:23:13 see was like people coming out and that and whatever they were doing on the streets of philly you would never know if they won or lost because they go be burning cars regardless like they're lost or won either way they're happy or they're wild. Looks like they lost or won. Either way. They're happy or they're really, really mad. I can't tell. I know. All right. Let's take a quick break.
Starting point is 00:23:32 We'll be right back. This summer, the nation watched as the Republican nominee for president was the target of two assassination attempts, separated by two months. These events were mirrored nearly 50 years ago when President Gerald Ford faced two attempts on his life in less than three weeks. President Gerald R. Ford came stunningly close to being the victim of an assassin today. And these are the only two times we know of that a woman has tried to assassinate a U.S. president. One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson. I always felt like Lynette was kind of his right-hand woman.
Starting point is 00:24:13 The other, a middle-aged housewife working undercover for the FBI in a violent revolutionary underground. Identified by police as Sarah Jean Moore. The story of one strange and violent summer. This is Rip Current. Available now with new episodes every Thursday. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Substance use disorder and addiction is so isolating. And so, as a Black woman in recovery,
Starting point is 00:24:46 hope must be loud. It grows louder when you ask for help and you're vulnerable. It is the thread that lets you know that no matter what happens, you will be okay. When we learn the power of hope, recovery is possible.
Starting point is 00:25:01 Find out how at StartWithHope.com. Brought to you by the National Council for Mental Wellbeing, Shatterproof, and the Ad Council. I've been thinking about you. I want you back in my life. It's too late for that. I have a proposal for you. Come up here and document my project. All you need to do is record everything like you always do.
Starting point is 00:25:21 One session. 24 hours. BPM 110. 120. She's terrified. Should we wake her up? Absolutely not. What was that? You didn't figure it out? I think I need to hear you say it. That was live audio of a woman's nightmare.
Starting point is 00:25:41 This machine is approved and everything? You're allowed to be doing this? We passed the review board a year ago. We're not hurting people. There's nothing dangerous about what you're doing. They're just dreams. Dream Sequence is a new horror thriller from Blumhouse Television, iHeartRadio, and Realm.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Listen to Dream Sequence on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And there was an airborne toxic event. Great name for a band. not great for to be to be experiencing it. In Ohio last week, you know, a train derailed, spilled all sorts of terrifying chemicals all over the place. They they made the decision to burn the chemicals to prevent them from, I don't know, exploding. So there was just this massive black cloud hanging in the air in a way that did not like I've not seen clouds behave before. It just like looked very unnatural. Definitely reminded me of like white noise and a sci-fi movie, basically. movie, basically. So a lot of footage of these like massive black clouds of toxic chemicals belching into the sky, you know, eyewitness reports or people, you know, being like, I live 11 miles away from the crash site and woke up today and all my chickens are dead in my backyard. My pet dog is dead. And they actually arrested a reporter at a press conference about the event last week for talking while the governor was talking, which didn't really make that everybody was there was like, this doesn't really make sense. But it seemed like they just wanted to, like, put a freeze on any feeling of bravery or, you know, like anybody getting too excited getting any big ideas but i don't know
Starting point is 00:27:48 it's it's really so that hazardous material is vinyl chloride which is the stuff that makes pvc pipes and credit cards hard and shiny they decided the best thing to do was to burn it and like the ap news article is just so they like, so this gas that is produced by burning that has a strong odor, can cause vomiting and breathing trouble, and was used as a weapon in World War I. This professor of chemistry at Carnegie Mellon University, who's actually close to Pittsburgh, said he worries the burning could have formed dioxins, which are created from burning chlorinated carbon materials. And basically those are horrible carcinogens so yeah just the gases experts were were not endorsing this one the gas girls were opposed as the gas girls were not not fans what's what's because they made so many terrible decisions in a row like after the accident happened they were like let's put it in the air
Starting point is 00:28:45 because air air isn't having enough problems right but i don't know if that was like i because i don't know what was going to happen if they hadn't burned it you know like if it could have just like exploded the whole town like that the fact that they did that i'm assuming was based on some fear that they had was it based on any science it sounds like all the scientists were alerted way too late they asked their boss a 12 year old who was like hey what if we just burned that shit that might be kind of cool might make a cloud that does weird things also we gotta we gotta we gotta start protecting these chickens, man. These eggs are, you know, are high premium nowadays. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:29:27 Oh, no, you're going to be eating that chloride at the Popeye's. You know, you can't be fucking with my Popeye's now. Those contaminated eggs are already at Kroger, okay? Man, you can fuck with my lungs all you want, but don't you fuck with my chicken sandwiches. Everyone woke up and was like, the whole town smells like a public pool because it's just all chlorine like the it's just a thick smell of chlorine i like the smell of chlorine i do too but like i feel like this would change the context for me like i think i like the smell because it reminds me of going to the public pool in the summer and like getting a frozen Snickers or something. But this feels like I would it might ruin my esteem for the smell of chlorine.
Starting point is 00:30:14 If it reminded me of a black cloud that was like sci-fi, but following me around like Charlie Brown, I might not be into it. Might also ruin your life. Take your life from you right yeah yeah i was giving murdery like they were saying a lot like carcinogens cancer yeah breathing respiratory issues you need air it's sounding a little like a little murder gas too also warfare i was hearing you know that's yeah world war one that wasn't one of the good ones right that was pretty bad right yeah i feel like the gas from the gases from World War One got a pretty bad reputation. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:50 They deserve it. Yeah. So according to rail workers, this is due to deregulation and the fact that there is nobody to protect us from corporations trying to make as much money while spending as little as possible. Yeah. They basically. from corporations trying to make as much money while spending as little as possible. Yeah, they basically... The company that did this had just joined with another company. There was a big merger.
Starting point is 00:31:12 So there's nobody to compete with them. And so they can just fuck up and keep spending as little as possible. All of these things were things that people who actually work on the rails were like,
Starting point is 00:31:26 this is what's going to happen. If you are not, if you, if you keep going this direction, if you keep like not enforcing safety mandates, this is where we're going to have these major like chemical spills and just horrible things happen. And the company just kept cutting staff and investing any money they made in stock buybacks or dividends.
Starting point is 00:31:53 So which is something we just keep seeing, like with oil companies last year, they were like, oh, you know, gas costs an incredible amount because, you know, Putin invaded Ukraine. incredible amount because, you know, Putin invaded Ukraine. And then they were like, and also good news. We had record profits and we're going to invest all that money in stock buybacks. It's just like, wait, is the inflation in the room with us right now? Like it's starting to get boogeyman. Like, no, it wasn't us. Y'all was the boogeyman inflation. Yeah. We made a lot of money, but it was because of the inflations that um had inflated and then we had to charge y'all more like for things that you need to live so oops like it's it's disgusting and honestly we're living in the earth's flop era like i have made my peace with it i've tried to fight that was what my 20s were for i was out in
Starting point is 00:32:42 these streets fighting everybody and i'm like well let me just try to get my little things before we have to go because the planet is going to be done. Yeah. I was telling somebody like, man, I think we on the beginning of the end. That's what it feels like. Now, will the end come when I'm alive? Probably not. I don't know. The way things are accelerating,
Starting point is 00:33:06 we hit the gas. I think we're about to be the shortest existence of a species, dominant species on this planet's history. Which is honestly deserved. Honestly deserved. Probably.
Starting point is 00:33:22 It feels like all our dystopia movies like create this world where it's like you know there's a zombie there's this one event that like happens and everybody everywhere is like no no longer has electricity and we're all running from like you know the walking dead or the last of us zombies and it's more like there's this soft dystopia where all these things happen all across the country and safeguards are treated as like obstacles to overcome or like childish and naive and everything just moves builds itself in whatever direction makes the most money and we're just kind of have to like the media doesn't report when like something horrible, horrible like this happens.
Starting point is 00:34:08 Like one journalist gets arrested instead of all the journalists. So it's like but but the message is still sent. I don't know. I used to think that. If something crazy big happened, it would bring us all together. big happened it would bring us all together like if a if an alien invasion came down to earth we would like band together and no more black versus white no more country versus country it's just earth my guy earth earth earth you know and then after the pandemic i'm like we would eat each other the fuck alive no matter what hey no matter what would happen if if aliens came down, we will find some way somehow to still hate each other over.
Starting point is 00:34:49 And like, that's just where we are now. So, Lacey, I'm with you. I'm just I'm just accepting that the earth, like you said, is in this flop era. And I'm just going to try to make as much good of it as I fucking can for myself and my people. You know, see a few sunrisesises touch a little bit of grass but they take the sun and they take the grass i know because when i found out that they were trying they were testing out doing advertisements in the sky i said bitch we can't have no sky because of capitalism y'all about to put coke ads in the sky damn i can't even have stars no more like nothing is free
Starting point is 00:35:22 water you can't drink the rain water like you have to buy water so it's just i i've realized like you know i fought a good fight i'm still here i'm still gonna keep fighting and talking and whatever i guess we're doing but at this point everyone's just getting away with whatever they want to do and this rugged individualism is going to harm us you know and continue to harm us and that's the american way so here we are like it you would think that the pro-capitalism people would be like well this isn't even capitalism anymore like one of the things we've known that capitalism needs is like competition and not monopolies and there it's just yeah it's it's just monopolies doing whatever the fuck they want for, you know, whatever is going to make them the most money.
Starting point is 00:36:08 It's and yeah, it's it's. And just like weirdos who are like standing rich people, because most of the people who are ten toes down in capitalism are broke as hell. And they're just like, oh, but what if I become rich? And I'm like, can you please stop living in imaginary world? And like, can we get you some water and a good mattress today? Like, what are you talking about? got posters of elon musk up i guess i told you i guess they dance to his forbes quotes i don't get the appeal of like standing a rich person you're not gonna get anything out of it in fact you get less but at least me giving my money to beyonce like she's gonna give me some good bops and a good
Starting point is 00:36:42 time like when you get out of giving your money to elon unless you're getting a tesla like what it's just i mean it's just really disappointing to see how many people will stand behind something that is so harmful even to themselves just to feel better about themselves because that's all it is yeah just head down into the future believing like now this is gonna fix itself where this is the best possible version of any of this i think playing monopoly ends in more knife uh fights than playing dice like that's right because playing monopoly is terrible when you play you're like oh yeah capitalism is trash we should stop this yeah it was originally invented as a thing to show that monopolies and capitalism were bad and they were by a woman and it was
Starting point is 00:37:26 stolen by stolen by the parker brothers yeah damn all right well uh really briefly the other thing everyone's talking about or the main thing that everyone's talking about because i don't feel like there's that many mainstream media outlets covering the train derailment the the balloon wars so two another balloon was shot down yesterday over michigan or two days ago over michigan two were shot down in canada and alaska but like it's still i don't know it's very unclear what is happening here because they're like much smaller than that first one that got shot down over the atlantic Everyone's just assuming that it's China because the first one was from China, which I guess that makes sense. But I don't know. I don't think
Starting point is 00:38:15 they're alien ships because I don't think aliens will ride a balloon across the cosmos to get here. I mean, they look like beautiful moons you know every time i see a picture i'm like damn the moon looking good today the moon ain't looking like that in los angeles it just looked like the clearest most circular moon smooth yeah i think this is hilarious man i'm not even gonna lie like i i'm not gonna lie like like i'm been keeping up with what's going on outside of just the jokes of it but But I do think it's hilarious that China sent over a fucking balloon and it's just floating it in the sky, spying on people, I guess, or spying on states or countries or cities. I don't know. But I think it's bold as
Starting point is 00:39:01 hell. And I think if you are good enough to get a balloon to spy on a country, that we should let you keep that balloon here. You got it here. That balloon is yours. That airspace is yours. You can fucking have it. Also, why would they need to spy on us when we tell all our business anyway? I feel like at this point, people who work for the state are doing TikToks in between waterboardings.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Everybody's telling on themselves on january 6th they were all doing videos it was like we could find you bro you uploaded this this is so easy also like that's interesting to me because i i kind of i hope it's aliens and i want to put it on record and on wax that i'm with the aliens and i'm with whatever y'all are on and i will go with y'all y'all can probe me is your country good is it better than what i'm on and i will go with y'all me too y'all can probe me aliens is your country good is it better than what i'm dealing with i will come up there y'all let's go i'll talk like how y'all talk whatever i'm with it but also if it is china spying like didn't they just like get like they bought like what hong kong was like we got 500 000 free airline tickets like they're trying to
Starting point is 00:40:01 get tourism up and stuff like it feels like they want us to go to China so why yeah to get more information you know they're trying to find out who's buying them airline tickets they're like are y'all buying them yeah we see y'all ain't buying them yeah
Starting point is 00:40:19 what if they are just spying on us not for any military things but just to be like I wonder what them niggas doing over there. I wonder. I mean, I guess this is just the state of things that it's like everyone's constantly spying on everyone else. And according to like national security experts, in terms of spying, like the U.S. has the best capabilities by far. So like anything that we're complaining about right now is the this we're doing it yeah we're already doing it james bamford said every
Starting point is 00:40:52 country has weapons for spying but most have the equivalent of a howitzer in terms of eavesdropping the u.s has a nuclear weapon so we're just batman at the end of dark knight like we're also like yeah and batman was just a cop who was rich and in everybody's business, like constantly for no reason. And that's literally us. We're Batman, just a cop in everybody's business and constantly looking over our shoulder because we know that we pissed everybody off, which is why we have to stay like loaded up with weapons because we're like, everyone's mad at us and should be. Yeah. Yeah. China's also saying they've caught like 10 u.s balloons in their airspace
Starting point is 00:41:26 like since january only 10 we said we said thousands i know come on yeah all them stars you see up in the sky are american star balloons that's right no stars left no stars left just spies and cameras. All right. Let's take a quick break. We'll come back. We'll talk about those Jesus-themed Super Bowl commercials. This summer, the nation watched as the Republican nominee for president was the target of two assassination attempts separated by two months. of two assassination attempts separated by two months. These events were mirrored nearly 50 years ago
Starting point is 00:42:07 when President Gerald Ford faced two attempts on his life in less than three weeks. President Gerald R. Ford came stunningly close to being the victim of an assassin today. And these are the only two times we know of that a woman has tried to assassinate a U.S. president. One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson. I always felt like Lynette was kind of his right-hand woman.
Starting point is 00:42:30 The other, a middle-aged housewife working undercover for the FBI in a violent revolutionary underground. Identified by police as Sarah Jean Moore.

Brought to you by the National Council for Mental Wellbeing, Shatterproof, and the Ad Council. I've been thinking about you. I want you back in my life.

Starting point is 00:43:43 one 20. She's terrified. Should we wake her up? Absolutely not. What was that? You didn't figure it out? I think I need to hear you say it. That was live audio of a woman's nightmare.
Starting point is 00:43:58 This machine is approved and everything? You're allowed to be doing this? We passed the review board a year ago. We're not hurting people. There's nothing dangerous about what you're doing. They're just dreams. Dream Sequence is a new horror thriller from Blumhouse Television, iHeartRadio, and Realm.
Starting point is 00:44:18 Listen to Dream Sequence on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. iHeartRadio. app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts and we're back and did you guys did you guys catch the the jesus themed ads yes and i was very confused and scared i was very i was i was watching i went to the super bowl and watched it at the Soho House last night. Oh, yeah. Oh, you know, you know, we was ready and it was a lot of black folks in there. And we was watching this shit, you know, in the big ass rooms. And when it was all these images of just angry people, we was like, what the fuck is it? Because we weren't really watching the commercials.
Starting point is 00:45:04 But like that one, like made everybody like stop and turn and start watching it because it was just a bunch of images of people being angry and people pointing at each other or kids standing on each other to pee or just these weird fucking images and then it would just be like jesus yes i bought ad space for the super bowl and the kids are starving jesus why are you buying super bowl ads those are expensive you know how much work of jesus you could have done with the payment of super bowl ads for jesus like haven't i think we did enough you know colonizing and crusading for people to know about Jesus, okay? Y'all went everywhere under the guise of Jesus while y'all were stealing stuff from poor people. We know about him. When the Beatles were the most famous people in the world, they said they were as famous as Jesus,
Starting point is 00:45:59 and everyone was so furious that they canceled the Beatles for saying that. So they're pretty, they're pretty well known. Like I feel like, yeah, the, the Superbowl commercial lunch, your point,
Starting point is 00:46:10 lazy, they probably cost around $20 million. People. Insane. So who, how many people have given their money to this organization under the guise of like philanthropy and Christ and all the things that people who love Jesus the most never do. Cause everybody who really bangs with Jesus, super, super hard and likes to all the things that people who love Jesus the most never do. Cause everybody who really bangs with Jesus super, super hard and likes to throw him
Starting point is 00:46:29 in other people's faces, they don't ever do anything that he said, like charity, you know, like helping one another, loving that neighbor, they harm that neighbor. Like it's so confusing to me, but also it's disgusting to me. Like we really need to like bully them. I'm a cyber bully them right after this, because they could have done so much good with that money and instead they just decided to flex with a super bowl ad like it's like oh snoop doggum and uh martha stewart and now geez us i don't even i really don't even get it like what us is there in his name. There's no I in Jesus, but there is an us. That's true. There's a you, though.
Starting point is 00:47:09 There's a you. If you're going to spend $20 million on ads, at least make that shit funny, man. If it would have been a funny Jesus commercial, I probably would have went to church next Sunday. I ain't been to church in a couple years. He's up on the cross and he's like, y'all ain't gonna act right for me? Look what I did. Look what I did.
Starting point is 00:47:30 Have you ever had, you stubbed your toe and cried, I had nails in my feet, people. And the sexiest body up here. Y'all ain't got ass like me. Shredded. So the ads are all being run by the signet tree, which sounds like some shit a villain would
Starting point is 00:47:47 say like it sounds like how a villain would call a signatory yeah welcome to the signatory it's a christian foundation that raises money for causes that they claim inspire and facilitate revolutionary biblical generosity that's a that's a freaking Ponzi scheme. Money laundering. That's a bull. So you telling me y'all just raised awareness assists? They're like, y'all, we got 30 million awareness assists tonight. What is that doing?
Starting point is 00:48:15 The awareness meter is off the charts. It's off the charts. We did our job. So according to Fox News, AOC was roasted by conservatives for criticizing the campaign after she tweeted, Something tells me Jesus would not spend millions of dollars on Super Bowl ads to make fascism look benign. And people were like, what? These ads are part of an effort to spread the message of Jesus to LGBTQ plus people and other communities that have felt unwelcome by Christianity. So
Starting point is 00:48:46 what are you talking about? Except it turns out the signatory, also known as Servant Foundation, has reportedly donated more than $50 million to the Alliance Defending Freedom, which you know by that title, it can't be good, designated as an anti-LGBTQ plus hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. So what do they need $50 million for so they can go to Joanne's Fabrics or Hobby Lobby because that's the real oppressor. They can go to Hobby Lobby and get cardboard,
Starting point is 00:49:18 cardstock so that they can go harass the gays at brunch because that's what they do. And also you have to be so bored and so sad in your life to be like, where are the gays at brunch because that's what they do like like and also you have to be so bored and so sad in your life to be like where are the gays having brunch let me get on yelp and then y'all have a poster sign make it party and then y'all go outside of the brunch y'all we meeting at noon that's when they like to get there and just stand outside and be like we don't like you what especially because brunch be good like sit down and eat a waffle like you mean to tell me you holding this sign is better than you eating some french toast with some maple syrup
Starting point is 00:49:53 and some mimosas come on now they're just out there with like dry cereal and a ziploc bag cheerios are good too that's why they mad that's why they mad they got bran flakes and shit what people why why everybody why the gays is eating like fucking the gays are twerking next to their poached eggs and they are mad about it and they are mad honestly i'm about to get involved in hate groups because it's such a great scam. Like, I'm just making a company called For Hate and just ask haters to give me money. I'm not going to tell them what I'm doing with it. But I'm like, no, don't worry, y'all. We're going to get the hate up.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Yeah, just do the opposite of this. Yeah. Just do an openly hateful group and then secretly spend the money on good things. Because that's what they're doing. But they're not spending it on good things. They're just pocketing it. It's all a front. By good things because that's what they're doing but they're not spending it on good things they're just pocketing it it's all a front by good things i mean brunch that's yes spending it on good things like brunch they're gonna see me at the brunch while they're rioting being gay as fuck i'm like ma'am i'm like i'm getting on the inside don't blow my cover
Starting point is 00:50:58 uh they also helped draft the 2018 mississippi abortion law at the heart of the Supreme court decision last year, allowing states to ban the procedure currently leading a new Supreme court case, arguing that businesses should be able to discriminate against LGBTQ plus customers. So it's the opposite of all the things that they're claiming there. It's they're doing the work of,
Starting point is 00:51:24 of trying to address yeah they're trying to address the pr front you know like it would be like the whatever this train company's name is like next year just like running an ad about how they're all about the people and fuck chemicals or something you know and honestly tideai commercials look more like ads for jesus than those jesus ads did like thai commercials or or commercials for like drugs like medications where they're like biking and then they're in a tub and they're like outside blowing one of those little flowers that like all the little seeds go around baby lines like those look like commercials for jesus like oh we're helping we're out we're living but they just showed us like a bunch of
Starting point is 00:52:04 people yelling and it was in black and white and it was kind of scary and it was like why is this like old testament like why y'all trying to terrify us during the super bowl yeah they i'm telling you they literally had a picture on one because they ran like four commercials last night or some shit uh they they had a picture that showed a little boy on his fours on his hands and knees with another kid standing on him pissing in a urinal and i was like that was one of the pictures and i was like what the fuck is this commercial these are the weird that's the weirdest you know what that makes me think of the love of j Jesus. Yeah. That's what Jesus would have done. Whoa, Jesus.
Starting point is 00:52:45 Jesus would have got on his hands and knees so that I could reach the urinal. Also, the commercials at the Super Bowl in general were just like terrible. They're bad now. Everything is just devolving in front of our eyes. They're like, oh, we'll just get influencers and celebrities and that'll make it funny and good. It's where these used to be fun i used to like watching the commercials
Starting point is 00:53:08 we turned the music up this this year we were like this is terrible like i didn't even give a shit about the commercials this year they used to be very fun also companies now start promoting their superbowl commercial and like like three four weeks before or laying foundation for like the reveal of the commercial even though they had about six seven commercials like the Eminem shit with Maya Rudolph who look I love Maya Rudolph but like man that was just so boring and such a trash campaign it didn't make sense it wasn't funny funny. It makes me mad. Bring back. If Trump want to win a presidency, make Super Bowl commercials great again. All right.
Starting point is 00:53:50 Bring back the what's up. Bring back fun stuff. Hey, I bring it back every day at the beginning of a Zoom call. You know, every Zoom call I join. That's what I do. Greet my friend. What's up? Y'all is good. Gotta get the tongue out. Thank you. I mean, a lot of practice.
Starting point is 00:54:08 I'm not going to lie. A lot of practice. Lacey is mainly what I've been working on since I saw it. Let me know if you need me to donate to your practice fund. We used to spoof commercials. Remember that? Like that commercial was spoofed and scary movie. I can't even think of a commercial that would be spoofed today
Starting point is 00:54:25 yeah no besides this jesus commercial actually maybe the jesus commercial knows what the fuck they do the jesus commercial is iconic honestly it was a hit camp it is camp what if they were like well we just liked it because the jesus commercial is camp and we got me three again megan mithrigan and we got the jesus commercials did you see mithregan i haven't seen it yet i actually heard y'all talking about i gotta see it but it's camp and i know everybody loves it so also the jesus jesus they on the sorry just one last detail on this because you did mention hobby lobby so on the website for He Gets Us, they talk about how Jesus promoted women's equality, which is a little undercut by the fact that one of the campaign's vocal donors is Hobby
Starting point is 00:55:12 Lobby co-founder David Green, the man himself who has supported anti-LGBTQ legislation, waged a years-long legal fight to deny medical coverage for contraception on the basis of religious beliefs so yeah like the very person that you would assume is involved in this and like that that is most known for opposing the sorts of messages they were trying to claim like jesus is on board with this is is involved it's It's like, they were like, well, we got to get the main bad guy involved all this time. I thought the hobby was like knitting and yarn. The hobby is hate. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:52 That's what they do it in the lobby. Got to practice. Yeah. But it's, it really is the equivalent of like a youth group pastor who like sits down, like puts his hat on backwards and is like, yeah, no,
Starting point is 00:56:05 I get it. Like I want to, you like puts his hat on backwards and is like, yeah, no, I get it. Like, I want to, you know, Jesus was just cool. And like, he just like to rap with his friends, turns his seat backwards. And then like by the end of the month of youth group, he's like talking to you about masturbating and how it's like the devil wants to kill you because you've masturbated or some shit. It's just the bait and switch. That old bait and switch. Cool. Cool pastor.
Starting point is 00:56:30 And I'm not falling for it anymore. I was just involved in a youth group. I got scammed, you guys. I got to stop going to Christian youth groups. They were like, why is this grown man here? Once I hit my 40ies, they were like, maybe not, but I just, I'm still youthful. What's up about the age cap on this? Okay. I belong with the youth. I get that. Jesus's love doesn't have a number, but now I get it.
Starting point is 00:57:01 I understand the hate groups more because I used to be like, why do they want to be in people's business? But I'm like, Oh, it's a grift. They're just stealing your money and using it for whatever they want. And like, you don't really have to churn much out when you're for hate like you know there's not much that you can like show for that that is like you know a spreadsheet of like look how many hates we did this week like no the hates we're doing the work like right you can spend the money however you want it's a grift yeah exactly well lacy mosley such a pleasure having you back on the Daily Zeitgeist thank you so much for coming back where can people find you

Super producer Justin, what is a song that you think people might enjoy? Considering it's Valentine's Day, I wanted to leave y'all with like a slow jam kind of
Starting point is 01:04:21 love song. And this is a very talented artist that I recommended sometime last year. And she's as close to the group, The Internet, Lacey, as I've heard in recent years. This is a track called For You by Talia Goddess. She's a 20-year-old singer, rapper, model, DJ, multi-hyphenate out of New York. This track has some fragmented percussion. It's driven along by a pulsing synthetic bass line.
Starting point is 01:04:46 It's gonna turn your neck bones into gelatin, I promise. It gives like a really like 90s R&B vibe and also like a contemporary R&B vibe which is really hard to pull off. She's already doing really big things. She's only 20 years old. I feel like she's gonna be a superstar though. So that once again is Talia Gades. That's for you, the number four, letter U. And you can find that song in the footnotes. And also, I still haven't joined the Discord yet, Zyte Gang. How the fuck do I do that, Jack?
