That's for real heads that know I've been doing the Jane Fonda exercise every day for 20 days.
And it's hard as shit.
It's getting easier.
But she's so, like, I don't view her as horny anymore.
Now it's just starting to get a little aggressive,

I mean, I just like the layers of that AKA too
because it's Jane Fonda, but Jane's addiction.

Hi.
Hi.
Broadcasting live from my tiny bedroom.
Yes.
Love it.
Everyone's in confined quarters now.
I like how we just see how each other lives now.
Like that's...
No.
I've learned way too much about comedians from these live shows.
I feel like my background looks like I'm crashing with my girlfriend who has her shit together
and is like working on her master's degree.
I feel like it's the vibe of my background.
I'm like, I'm just crashing with her right now.
Babe, can I use your office?
I just need it for a sec.
I'm honestly going to paint my room this weekend just because I've been getting insecure about it.
I'm like, I look like I live in an Airbnb.
What if every time you you did a podcast
or a live show you like painted your room the stress of just that background stress you're
like i don't know man the last i looked shitty in that last one maybe i'm gonna spruce it up with
like a cobalt blue or something in here matt was stressing me out earlier this week because when
matt was on the show earlier this week he was in i was like where the fuck was he he had like framed pictures of succulents above his head i'm like okay he lives
well i just assume they're with they're living with their parents right now that's all i'm gonna
assume i like the bar is sort of like succulents hung above your head okay one percenter nice i
see what's going on yeah all right polyv we're gonna get to
know you a little bit better in a moment first we're gonna tell our listeners what we're talking
about we're just going full krasinski all good news all the time guys uh hell yeah which krasinski
john john why is there another krasinski i don don't know. Did Emily Blunt take his last name? Finally.
No.
Yeah, John Krasinski launched his Some Good News Network.
And actually, we can't do it.
We don't, you know.
That's the Krasinski lane.
We're going to talk about what's actually happening.
Yeah, fuck you, John Krasinski.
Yeah, fuck you, Krasinski. Whoa. You guys going to add that to the intro, fuck you, John Krasinski. Yeah, fuck you, Krasinski.
Whoa.
You guys going to add that to the intro?
Yeah, fuck John Krasinski.
I didn't know that John Krasinski had a positive news website.
That's so embarrassing for him.
He just started it on Monday, yeah.
It's just like, you know, guys,
it's just really, you can tell,
this is what people need right now,
so let me lean on Steve Carell
to distract you from the fact
that maybe my films are subliminal messages to the right wing of this people need this stuff
relying on steve carell and there's i mean he's had enough leave steve carell alone let him rest
chris evans has that embarrassing website too or where he's like is a politic he's there was a whole gq article on it it was like chris evans his next uh
his his next conquest the internet and it's just supposed to be like a politics website where it's
like chris evans is like so you're stupid you don't understand politics let me chris evans
explain it to you on youtube that's his whole also like a like a really handsome and like very patronizing adam con over
basically or maybe like margot robbie in the big short i don't know oh it's like now they've got
your attention dip shit yeah every video starts i like how this is i find out that Adam Conover isn't Miles' type.
Oh, Adam is my type.
His perfectly coiffed hair, whenever I see him, I'm always in awe of his perfect hair. He's super hot, Miles.
And don't you forget it.
Don't you forget it.
Yeah, nice try, Miles.
He's so hot.
Now that I've got your attention, D dipshit would be a great parody YouTube channel
for all the hot dudes giving news takes.
Just working out huge, like, oh!
No, I want them to still do the spreading of the legs thing.
I want them to still be in the robe.
The Chris Evans one, yeah, it's like,
now that I've got your attention,
and then he'll flex and and be like let's talk about
gerrymandering or he does like the basic instinct leg crossing but he just sees like old balls in
the shine like oh oh no uh all right what are we talking about today other than chris evans's old balls uh i don't know why he has
such old balls i think it came from it was it was the avengers i'm referencing i think i have a big
daddy line stuck in my head where again this is how my mind works where adam sandler's really
pissed that his girlfriend is dating an old man he's oh, I'm glad you're with him with his loose skin and old balls.
Gross.
All right.
We're going to look at where Americans aren't taking the stay at home order seriously.
Or maybe that's not what's happening.
Maybe they just don't have the ability to get to nearby grocery stores.
All depends on how the NYT wants to present that information.
Yeah.
Right, right.
But we are snitching, just generally.
This information is pulled,
the information on who's staying at home,
who's not is pulled from our cell phone records.
And then there is an article about how we're all snitching on our neighbors
and any local businesses that didn't
close, which we'll talk about that. I don't necessarily know how to feel about that.
The U.S. had its deadliest day and the world's deadliest day of any country during the pandemic
with a thousand people dying on Wednesday. We're going to talk about cloth masks.
That's a thing that LA is now telling everybody
who ventures outside of their home
for a necessary errand to wear cloth masks
anytime they're out.
Alcohol.
Have you guys heard about alcohol?
Hey, it couldn't be me.
I just tried it, actually.
Oh, whoa, you're clawing it up, Loftus.
Jamie's midway claw.
Jamie clawed this right now, dude.
Tang claw. We got the tropical pack. I was psyched about it.
Dude, claw this in the building. When claw this is activated, dude, watch the fuck out.
We're going to talk about the fact that alcohol is apparently seeing a surge in popularity right now.
No.
During the choir.
We're going to check in with Joe Exotic.
He has spoken.
He wants either Brad Pitt or Joe Dirt.
As he puts it in his own words.
What a range. What a range.
What a range.
Is that his way of saying David Spade?
Yeah.
He just called him.
He was like, yeah, Brad Pitt or Joe Dirt.
That's great.
The answer is Sam Rockwell, though.
Oh, yeah.
Yes, absolutely.
There's a paycheck protection plan, PPP,
that people should be checking out.
Productivity, an expert on productivity says relax.
Yeah, that expert was me from like two shows ago.
Okay, okay.
Animal Crossing has surpassed the word sex
in terms of searches searches according to Google.
Holy shit.
I don't know if that has something to do with the fact that people
don't just type sex in.
Maybe we're getting smarter
at internet.
We know how to do sex.
That's what I'm taking there.
Peak sexual education.
Whose
porn search term is just typing sex into Google?
Okay, first of all, that was like me.
Yeah, that was me very early when I had to use AltaVista to find that shit.
I'm still typing that in.
Sex.
Show me sex.
Yeah, but you get more refined as you get older.
You're like hot sex or like triple X sex. Yeah, but you get more refined as you get older. You're like, hot sex.
Or like, triple X sex.
I still don't know what that is, but okay.
I got in trouble when I was in fifth grade
for Googling Ashton Kutcher no shirt on Google Maps.
Oh.
What do you mean?
How did you get caught?
Bad, bad, bad.
Well, because I left it on the screen.
Forgot. Forgot.
Forgot.
Left it open.
Wait, it was at your home or at school?
It was at school.
I was a real indoor kid, and I galaxy-brained my teacher,
and I was like, I should be allowed to be on the computer
instead of going outside at recess.
And he was like, all right, and you're a good kid.
And so me and my best friend, Jade Perkins,
would Google Ashton Kutcher shirtless for like 20 minutes every day.
Wow.
Like Kelso era Ashton Kutcher.
What's the hottest Ashton Kutcher shirtless shirt
that you remember?
What's burned into your memory?
Which one?
There's a very specific bad Photoshop of him.
Oh, a bad, a Photoshopped one?
It was a Photoshop because it was nude.
Oh.
I don't think that there were like school filters on and so i we like escalated the searches and there was like
yeah someone had like no shirt no pants ashton kutcher's headshot onto like a porn star and we
were like whoa holy shit we should check it out has an only fans now
Ashton Kutcher fakes
I love it
I think like my most embarrassing
searches have ended with no shirt
I was about to ask you what's
something from your search history that's revealing
but I think we just learned
it's actually it is
really it's along the same lines
do you know Dr. Fossey who's dealing with the infectious diseases Learned. It's actually, it is, it is really, it's along the same lines.
Do you know Dr. Fossey, who's dealing with the infectious diseases? He's a guy in the background of all of the Trump press briefings.
Yeah, yeah.
Tony Fauci.
Love him.
Fauci, yeah.
Somebody was like, oh my God, he's so handsome on Twitter.
And they were like, you should see him young.
And I like, I did Dr. Fossey young.
And he just looks the same, but with darker hair.
It's a similar no shirt, but for nerds.
Always someone then with young, you're like, oh my God.
Oh my goodness.
Did you know at one point they were less old?
Yeah.
It's never not shocking to me when people are younger than they are currently.
Do you ever Google somebody young
and you're like,
I could have had a shot with them back then?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I think that's the point
is you Google someone young
and you're like,
oh, yeah, yeah, that's in my league.
That's in my zone.
I think the most frustrating thing
is when you search someone
who's like a villain
and they're hot when they're younger.
Oh, my God.
And you're like, what the fuck?
No.
Oh, like a real life villain.
Yeah, yeah.
Like someone like shitty in the news or something.
You're like, God damn.
But people do that like in real time with like Tommy Lahren and stuff, right?
Like they're thirsty, but they're like, I hate this.
Pre-facelift
Tommy Lahren.
Oh,
I didn't even notice.
What is something
you think is underrated?
Oh,
okay.
This is a personal vendetta
that I have,
but I feel like drag queens
are underrated.
I got into,
I've been on,
on the apps
still chatting with guys
and I'm pretty sure
a guy won't text me back
because I got upset that he wasn't supportive
or enthusiastic enough about drag queens.
There you go.
So he was like, that conversation got heated,
and I was like, I'm fine,
but you need to be more excited about it.
Wait, okay, what happened?
What did you bring up where you found the divide?
Well, my roommate loves watching um drag so we watched
like a live stream of all these drag queens and it was like it was you know everybody was figuring
out their live stream so like it was lagging a bit or whatever but it was awesome and i told
him that that's what i was up to and he was like oh i just don't understand drag queens like all
they do is lip sync and i was like no it's entertainment it's makeup it's style it's entertaining and i was like the backgrounds
the clothes yeah that's some real reductive shit to say i know i'm like all right your turn
try it i know and he was like he was like no i support them i just don't like connect and i was
like well this is still a problem your connection is a symptom of a larger problem.
I think maybe,
maybe like you got to walk them through the history.
I mean,
like,
like that's not on you to educate these people,
you know,
especially when,
especially in the choir,
you're trying to find somebody that's ready to go.
Not someone you have to raise.
Ready to go from their own home.
Yeah.
And then you just say like,
I guess you should start with being like,
have you seen Paris is Burning?
Yeah.
Leave it there.
Let that be your litmus test.
What is something you think is overrated?
Well, now that I can't do it,
stand-up comedy.
Don't come back to it.
Okay.
Just don't come back.
I have a feeling it's going to be like 12,
you know how there's new year's comics
and they they like it's there's like a spike in comedians at the beginning of the year
i think it's gonna be so bad when we get out of quarantine like everyone who's wanted to try
anything ever is gonna be on and then also all of the regular comedians are just gonna be itching
for stage time it's gonna be so bad i was thinking about that yesterday and it gave me a massive wave
of anxiety i'm like it's gonna be worse than being in the choir is being out and people being like
i've been workshopping a lot of stuff and you're just like oh my god i think i'm not gonna come
out i'm not gonna come out for a couple weeks until after like probably let them get it out
of their system i'm gonna like let all the animals feed and then I'm going to come by later.
Okay.
What about this though?
What if, right?
People are so hungry for just stand-up comedy that the people who get out there first are
with some of the most receptive audiences and can somehow ride a post-quar wave where
people are like, y'all got quar brain.
This is not funny.
This is just funny to you because you've been inside all the time.
And they're like, we find these like, I i bet you there's gonna be one person who like rides a post-quar
wave where everyone's like this is objectively not good and we're only loving this because we've
been inside the whole time yeah yeah for sure that's gonna be jeff low it's gonna be jeff low
i do i mean i miss i miss performing a lot but the the first couple of weeks are going to fucking suck.
They're going to be worse than being locked inside.
I didn't even know that New Year's comic was a thing.
That's interesting.
I mean, I was a New Year's comic, technically.
My first open mic was in January, but whatever.
And you were working on a PhD in the midst, in a very relevant field, right?
Yeah, super relevant.
Making Pallavi tell on herself.
I, yeah, I quit that in December and it is sad.
Okay, so I was actually, so I'm a biomedical engineer.
I quit my PhD in December.
Before my PhD, I was working in infectious diseases.
So if I had stayed on at that job, we would be developing Corona controls right now. And my friends are. So it's interesting
talking to them. How does that feel like being like you left that industry, which suddenly now
is probably one of the most important fields of medicine or science right now. And you're kind of
like, yeah, does it does you feel stressed out or does part are you getting like um i'm sorry miles you're breaking up i can't hear you um i'm so sorry uh it must
be some like crazy thing with the connection how does that feel it feels fucking awful but i did
okay so i did join i was telling you guys i joined this group of like a bunch of so there are
engineers and doctors that are like well i don't know if doctors have time but a bunch of like a bunch of so there are engineers and doctors that are like well I don't know if doctors have time but a bunch of like medical professionals that are like volunteering to try
to like make new designs for face masks and ventilators and ventilator splitters if necessary
and so I joined a group of a bunch of engineers and like now I'm actually I have a purpose again
I was like I was like thank I was like all this extra time not doing live stand-up comedy,
which is what I quit my PhD for.
Maybe I'll, I don't know, throw it back into some sort of PhD type hours.
That's got to be energizing.
Yeah, it actually feels really good.
I'm like, oh, okay, now I know what I'm doing.
Because I was having so much anxiety from not having control over anything.
And then this finally gave me something to do where I'm like,
okay,
well this is me like figuring it out and like trying to control what I can.
And finally,
what is a myth?
What's something people think is true,
you know,
to be false.
Okay.
I didn't have a clear answer on this one,
but I,
so after watching tiger King,
I was just like horrified by like what they did to the animals.
And then my friend and I were talking about animal suicide.
And there's like I'm looking at this BBC article and there's like a whole like there's arguments to and from.
There are like animal psychologists and it's been happening since like second century A.D.
There was like a Greek scholar that like wrote a whole book on this subject.
But basically, from what i can gather
it seems like animal behavior changes in confinement and so it seems like animals who
are like free may like sacrifice themselves for their young or something but they don't
like altruistically but they don't think of like a mother spider will like will like let its young
feed on her own body and stuff but like but it's not like they think of it as, like, suicide.
But it seems like in confinement, like, orca whales and stuff,
like, get hella depressed and, like, their behavior changes.
So, yeah.
And you can see the despair.
Or, like, lemmings, it's, like, not suicidal.
Yeah.
But, like, it seems like in, yeah.
So in the wild, they just have these, like, interesting behaviors
that people sometimes think is suicide,
but it's actually due to other reasons.
Whereas in confinement, it could be.
But they don't know if animals think very far into the future
or if they're just acting out of instinct to save their own lives.
So that's just interesting.
I don't know.
to like save their own lives you know so yeah that's that's just interesting i don't know yeah little like two minute thing where joe exotic uh is talking about the two monkeys who
were kept like across from each other that's exactly why years and then like got into an
enclosure together and just were like hugging each other was so brutal that's exactly why i looked it up
it was that moment because that was so like painful um there was um my friend harper who's
been on the show before i was telling harper rose drummond she was telling me about how there was
like a chimp in a zoo who was like signing to people and and the there were people who were
just like watching and being like oh that's so cute and it like signing to people and and the there were people who were just like watching
and being like oh that's so cute and it like happened for several days and then someone who
understood american sign language saw that the chimp was saying that one of the workers was
abusing the chimp and what it was like a mom who was like at the zoo with her kids or whatever
and then she like went and talked to the zoo people and they fired the worker because it's
like chimp was like someone saved me and everybody was like, oh, look at this animal.
What an idiot.
And they were all dumb.
I'm like, which one is trapped?
Which one?
Oh, man.
That's a deep one.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I've been like obsessed with Tiger King and I'm just furious with humans right now. There was my favorite recent Tiger King.
I mean,
not my favorite,
but just kind of like in obvious news with Tiger King,
there's like a whole independent article on just the director of Tiger King
being like,
yeah,
Joe exotic is categorically a racist.
No doubt in my mind.
He said things every day that were horrible.
And I was like that,
that doesn't feel like it should be a full story. It, it speaks for itself but it was a full story huh yeah there those videos
the like deleted scenes of him just saying openly racist shit is horrible yeah but they aren't
deleted scenes aren't they just from his tv show i thought those were just clips from his tv show
yeah yeah i think they are.
I guess deleted scenes from the documentary
in the sense that they didn't show it in the documentary.
That's true of a lot of these docuseries.
I think if you show the full picture
of who the person really is,
there's no way people are going to have empathy for him.
And so it seems like they edited it out
because it's unconscionable.
Exactly.
Documentary filmmaking is some of the most manipulative shit.
Yeah.
Finding Sugar Man is the thing that always jumps out to me,
that they go and find him and make it seem like he had no idea
he was popular, any of his recordings had been popular and it was like
no he had had the exact same thing happen to him in uh i think it was australia he was like huge
in australia already uh but they made it seem like he was like this obscure person uh who had no idea
anyone listened to his music i think the hardest part of like doing a documentary like that or like being the person who like interviews everybody and is like filming everything is like
how would you remove yourself from like this animal abuse that's like happening right and
like i would be so hard for me to like not try to intervene but i mean obviously it's making
bigger waves right now because jeff lowe's thing got raided or whatever as a result. But it would take so much to hold myself back.
I was so mad the whole time.
The docuseries that stands out to me
as the clearest manipulative shaping of the story
is in The Jinx.
I think that they kind of shaped the story
to make you think that Robert Durst is actually guilty.
And I like,
I think it's super clear that if you look at all the evidence,
he didn't kill anybody.
Really?
Yeah.
He didn't kill anybody.
Well,
he dismembered someone in self-defense,
but that's it.
I knew I was like,
there's no way. What about the Beverly Hills handwriting thing? That was go. I was like, there's no way she's doing this. Jamie, what about the Beverly Hills
handwriting thing?
That was manipulated.
That was photoshopped.
That was manipulated?
That was manipulated.
She's back on her
Durst shit.
That was actually,
it's unconscionable
what they did.
Okay, but how do you,
what do you feel about
the crimes of Fred Durst?
The worst thing he ever did was start a cute little jazz club
I mean well look give Fred
Durst a break because it's all about that he said
she said bullshit
it's all about that he said she said
you guys really thought I meant it for a second
that's fun
and on that we're going to take a quick break. like you always do. 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.
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.

It was December, 2019 when the story blew up.
In Green Bay, Wisconsin, former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila caught up in a bizarre situation.
KGB explaining what he believes led to the arrest of his friends at a children's Christmas play. A family man, former NFL player, devout Christian,
now cut off from his family and connected to a strange arrest.
I am going to share my journey of how I went from Christianity
to now a Hebrew Israelite.
I got swept up in Kabir's journey, but this was only the beginning.
In a story about faith and football,
the search for meaning away from the gridiron and the consequences for everyone involved.
You mix homesteading with guns and church and a little bit of the spice of conspiracy theories that we liked.

Señora Sex Ed is not your mommy sex talk.
This show is la plática like you've never heard it before.
We're breaking the stigma and silence
around sex and sexuality in Latinx communities.
This podcast is an intergenerational conversation
between Latinas from Gen X to Gen Z.
We're covering everything from body image to
representation in film and television. We even interview iconic Latinas like Puerto Rican actress
Ana Ortiz. I felt in control of my own physical body and my own self. I was on birth control.
I had sort of had my first sexual experience. If you're in your Senora era or know someone who is,
then this is the show for you.
We're your hosts, Diosa and Mala,
and you might recognize us from our flagship podcast, Locatora Radio.
We're so excited for you to hear our brand new podcast, Senora Sex Ed.

And we're back.
And there is a New York Times map that was published showing when people stopped traveling more than two miles? Yeah. I think right now everyone's kind of concerned with
what states might be doing or not doing to sort of contain or limit to spread, flatten the curve,
whatever terminology you want to use. And the New York Times used this map of using cell phone data
to basically track people's movements and see that, especially in the South, Southeast,
there's a lot of people still traveling more than two miles.
So they were sort of using this like,
okay, who's actually taking this stay-at-home order seriously?
Was sort of the headline of the article was,
where America didn't stay home even as the virus spread.
And it kind of looks like, oh, look,
it's these seemingly red states in the South or whatever.
And I think a lot of people are like, sure, a steady diet of Fox News and bad leadership
from the governor's mansion will lead to people still traveling for a long time.
But it's a little incomplete to sort of just look at it like that, because if you juxtapose
it, there are a few people on Twitter who took issue with this article, because they
also showed where like the highest concentrations
are people with without a car or supermarket within a mile are and it sort of maps directly
on top or nearly not like exactly but very there's significant overlap between those two like hot
zones so there's also a question of like what people's access are to get to these places or
you know like how they're able to get
their own goods or get to services and things like that um but yeah just an interesting map to look
at because i think on one hand we're all very much like looking at governor kemp like in georgia say
stuff like oh i had no idea people could be asymptomatic and spread it like saying that
fucking on wednesday uh when everyone has been talking about this uh
and then looking at apps like this and just being like what the fuck are they doing i mean i wouldn't
expect any like person who has treated abortion the way they have to understand anything scientific
you know what i mean like not specific but well yeah and a lot of governors are using this as a
way to sort of do their backdoor
version of uh completely repealing roe v wade by saying like oh abortion is actually a non-essential
medical service so actually that's why we can't have any right now because of the quarr so actually
end it right now that's been like just held back i mean did it has it actually gone through
anywhere i think i don't know that it's actually gone through but people are fucking they're all
they're trying mcconnell tried to sneak that into one of the like bills passed for like the stimulus package or something
right he tried to like add abortion restrictions ah he's like okay twelve hundred dollars for
everyone also you can't get abortions okay that sound good sound good everybody like this okay
okay we're also going to take away your rights okay sound good okay great oh That's so, I mean, not surprising.
These New York Times maps give me severe anxiety.
I think that's what they're supposed to do.
I know.
I hate that.
I mean, the one positive thing I've even read in terms of the spread being flattened or the curve being flattened was the, you know, the states that took the most aggressive action early on, like in Washington and California and places like that have seen
better outcomes or they're seeing better outcomes than other places based on just a matter of a few
days of not putting a shelter in place order. So, I mean, hopefully this can inspire other
municipalities to fully, you know, shut shit down there was a an la times
article that showed like the trajectory um between states right and how la has uh and california in
general like you were saying has kind of like veered lower uh than like new york and so it's
like we've kind of uh found a way to isolate better but i think that's like inherent in all
the reasons
that people generally don't like LA
is that everything is so spread out.
We're all so isolated.
But now it's like way better for survival
because with New York,
like everybody's all on top of each other
and like the subways and everything are always packed.
But yeah, it showed the trajectory
and it seems like hopeful here at least.
Who would have thought our total lack of connection and empathy for each other by being close to our neighbors would have had this benefit of being like,
Get the fuck away from me.
I'm staying inside my house.
And that's kind of where things are.
I think also the rain helped, too, those first two weeks.
Because on top of it, the weather was not nice.
It felt like we were stuck inside and things were bad outside
yeah i've been i've been worrying a lot about my new york friends just i mean yeah because it's so
it's so impossible like you can't not be on top of each other in new york and it is so hard to
get access to basic stuff without being on top of each other where here it's like at least you have
a little bit of you can you can conceivably stay six feet away from people where there it just sounds completely fucking impossible right yeah
um i mean so uh kind of going in that same direction uh the u.s had over a thousand deaths
uh just on wednesday alone it seems like the phase we're in is new york is continuing to
trend upwards and a lot of the cities around the country are starting to, like Detroit, New Orleans,
are starting to show the same trajectory as New York.
And there's just some really devastating charts about the trajectory that we're on in general
with coronavirus infections.
But I mean, infections is a statistic that can be misleading for all sorts of different
reasons,
but deaths,
I mean,
that,
that is the thing that you can't escape.
If people are dying of coronavirus at a record rate in the country,
then,
uh,
things,
the,
the plane has crashed into the mountain.
Like things are,
and,
and the other thing that I just want to emphasize is that
even though New Yorkers are on top of each other, I was Googling this morning, New York has 27,000
people per square mile. Seoul, Korea has 45,000 people per square mile and have managed to,
through their government, stepping in and getting early testing. Germany,
you're seeing the same thing. They're nailing this by getting people tested, got people tested
right away. And the importance of testing just can't be overstated. So that's where we're at,
or where we were at as of Wednesday. And hopefully we get better news soon.
Weren't there estimates that like 16,000 New Yorkers might pass from this based on the trajectory right now?
I mean, just a lot of the I mean, I think Cuomo said Thursday like that they have with the rate things are going, though, maybe they'll probably run out of ventilators in six days without some kind of massive intervention.
I'm so mad at Cuomo because of how he created hand sanitizer out of prison labor.
And now Rikers is fully ignored and the rate of infection there is seven times that of the normal population.
in times that of the normal population.
And I saw this Twitter thread from this lady who had gotten a lot of phone calls from prisoners who were telling her about the awful conditions.
And she said that there was no hand sanitizer because they're not allowed to have it.
They took away cleaning supplies and soap.
The staff is refusing to clean.
This is from a Twitter thread, so I'm not sure.
But I was trying to double check for articles, and there haven't been articles about Rikers in like 10 days and i'm just like what is happening in there like are they even
counting those people as being part of the population you know like yeah cuomo is getting
i feel like he's almost getting the same kind of bump that giuliani got during 9-11 right now
where he's like doing things but like the bare minimum things he's doing then
and i feel like people are not used to seeing public officials stepping up in any way shape
or form ever so when someone even remotely does it and then either is wearing suspenders or has
nipple nipple piercings we're like yes king you know but but it's like yeah he still has a shit
track record he's like rolled back medicare shit in
new york he's making prisoners work like slaves like it's it's you know he um there was like a
bail reform thing in january that he rejected or some like prison reform thing in january that he
rejected that caused more of them to be in there in the first place yeah and then and then he
utilized their labor i think de blasio let out like a couple hundred
or like some small amount of people
who were most at risk
or they were trying to let them out.
But like the conditions in there are terrible.
Yeah, it's really bad.
Like he's, I mean,
just everyone slow your roll on the Cuomo memes.
He's not the hero that,
but he's, I mean, he's doing a thing,
which is why we're impressed.
Yeah, it was only a few months or just a while back
when people were like
Cynthia Nixon destroy Cuomo in the election
please this guy fucking sucks
but you know
yeah I think people
I think there's something natural where people need
somebody to rally around
like we're seeing
approval ratings for leaders around the world surge
while this is happening.
And it happened to Trump, even, when he is fucking this up
beyond what any modern-day politician has ever fucked something up
in the developed world.
But his supporters need to rally around the
flag and i think the cuomo gives uh people who aren't trump supporters somebody to rally around
right i mean it's like i get it but yeah just like check there well i think you know it's all
relative you know just like for a while people were longing for george bush to uh to come back they like well i mean at
least bush too was better than trump you're like hold the fuck up no right like bush too fucked an
entire region of earth yeah and i think that's where and i think it's natural too like jack
saying like you want to feel like someone is not completely fucking up and if you're not completely
fucking up that's the little're not completely fucking up,
that's the little bit of the ray of light
that helps, I think, people feel a little bit optimistic.
It's all about tone, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's bad.
America has just generally turned into
one big version of the burbs slash rear window
slash disturbio slash takashi 69 where everybody's snitching
everybody's just kind of staying in their house looking at their neighbors uh just waiting for
somebody to fuck up and you know in some cases it's doing some good uh people who are telling
officials about businesses that were staying open
are actually getting those businesses shut down
that were probably not being very responsible.
Some yoga studios who were like,
we're fully necessary, right?
Oh, shut down the yoga studios.
Essential health.
Shut them down.
I was this for comedy. was like dming people for
weeks telling them to stop performing and people like right right before or like right around the
actual like way too long into it well and everybody had stayed in there were people like we're the
we're the rebels of comedy like fuck this coronavirus thing i'm like it's not the man
like what are you doing and so i i was dming people and
i was like leaning on my education being like do you respect my degrees you know just like this
elitist shit or whatever i was like whatever i have to do to get you to listen to me and like
some of them some of them did listen and it did help but some of them like left me on red or like
blocked me or like did all this other stuff. Oh my God, they blocked you?
And I fucking lit up one of these guys on my Instagram because he blocked me.
And I'm like, you're an idiot and you're not funny.
Like, why are you doing this?
Dude, the least funny people kept performing.
I'm like, it's not going to make you better.
It's because they could get booked all of a sudden.
Yeah.
Okay, that's mean.
But it's true.
They were like, I got to perform at this thing the other week.
And it's like, yeah, why do you think you got to perform there?
People were still doing open mics.
I'm like, why are you paying?
Why are you paying to get infected?
Like, I don't understand.
I'll put one place on blast.
Flappers stayed open for so long in burbank yeah the most
cursed venue in all of burbank um stayed stayed open for so long and the reason that they closed
if if rumors are to be believed was because like people like burst in in the middle of a show
and like shut the place down but it had to do with the fact that like shit was leaking out of
the pipes or something at what didn't even have to do with corona and then they just didn't hear that it's
funny to hear how many people are like stuck in that mentality with coronavirus like they're it's
not a virus it's like their fucking stepdad telling them yeah call like what the fuck are
you talking about yeah no fuck that bro obviously if you're not hanging out at the cellar right now
you don't really care.
It's that grind, you know?
You got to go to mics and shows and the hospital.
You got to grind.
You're not doing burgers right now? I do have to give you this quote from a yoga instructor
who was shut down.
She said,
if we were naughty with the government's order,
then we're very, very sorry.
We're not here to cause problems.
We're here to practice our poses.
There's all sorts of ways to sublimate like the fact that you're completely fucking up but
also the one thing that is so easy out of ever all of these entertainment things or exercise things
yoga is the easiest thing to do at home. So many people are doing it.
It's weird.
Was it,
Anna sent this to us the other night.
There was like a Governor Newsom quote
where he was like,
in some cases,
snitches get stitches,
but in this case,
snitches get rewards.
And you're just like,
ah!
Called these people out.
It feels so counter. It would have been so counter for him to say riches but he
obviously couldn't he's rewards
I'm like okay it was Garcetti
LA's mayor
Garcetti Mr. Garcetti
himself yeah I just love
you know people getting angry at
each other for not doing right
by science it's nice to see
that sort of like sort of I, I think it manifests in different
ways.
I think some people just need someone to get angry at in a stressful time.
I think other people are deeply concerned and really look and think of like what the
ramifications are, but it's heartening.
Yeah.
Just be honest with yourself in terms of essential work.
Like how essential are you, really?
Also, I got to give points to the owner of that yoga studio
who's like, okay, if we were being a little naughty, okay,
and possibly exacerbating a pandemic, sorry.
It's like how Kelly Loeffler is going to explain
all her fucking additional stock sales we just found out about
that she was selling something north of 15 million
dollars worth of stock before the pandemic not just a couple million and she's like oh if we
were a widow naughty sorry that's the that's the jessica love is blind voice yeah right
and it's also i mean i don't know i understand like especially when it's a small small business
i mean i don't i don't feel any way about the yoga studio but when it's a small, small business. I mean, I don't feel any way about the yoga studio.
But when it's a small, small business, I get where the temptation comes from.
But protect the people, man.
Well, yeah, and I think that's why it's, I think when people's outrage just sort of stops at,
why are you open?
You got to actually keep going upward because it's not just them they're open because they have
a mortgage or a rent that they pay on the studio and if they don't have the money then their dream
is over and the person that they pay is also so we need to keep looking up and be like okay who
is the person who is causing all the suction yeah yeah because the flapper is industrial complex. Mary Garcetti is now ordering people to start wearing cloth masks out if they have to be out if you're doing your weekly grocery trip or whatever it is.
Keep the N95 masks for the healthcare workers and healthcare providers, know cloth masks are being recommended now
yeah i'm i'm speaking through a cloth mask right now actually yeah i just put mine on very hard
to breathe through it's actually mostly for for biking like exercising in smoggy cities like this
is more for like one exercise in la where this fucking respirator i've i've i've like using a bandana, but I think I'm going to try to make one.
There's a ton of fun patterns out there right now.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
I think, I mean, also a lot of people were sort of concerned about being like, whoa,
is it at the point where everyone needs to be doing this?
Because the CDC hadn't actually put out these guidelines saying this is what everyone needs to
do but his reasoning was like look if this even helps the stop the spread by one percent we're
gonna do it like there's no reason to not do every single thing we can obviously without straining
the resources like n95 masks that are needed for frontline workers but like in terms of just
anything if we can do this if it's just if do this, if you got an old t-shirt you
can wear on your face to go to 7-Eleven, please do that. It's whatever we can do.
The thing they said it actually helps is in addition to asymptomatic people being less
likely to cough some coronavirus out into the world through a cloth mask, it makes you,
or it makes people more likely
to steer clear
of you because you look scary,
I guess. You look like an old-timey bandit.
So they're like,
yeah, you gotta watch out. So it helps
enforce social distancing.
I'm really loving men staying the fuck out of my
way on the sidewalk. It's been,
no one's run into me and not seen me.
It's been perfect.
There is an upside to all of this.
All right, let's take another break.
We'll be right back.
I've been thinking about you.
I want you back in my life.
It's too late for that. I have a 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.
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
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.

and I'm so excited about my new podcast, Rebel Spirit,
where I head back to my hometown in Kentucky and try to convince my high school to change
their racist mascot, the Rebels, into something everyone in the South loves, the biscuits.
I was a lady rebel.
Like, what does that even mean?
The Boone County Rebels will stay the Boone County Rebels with the image of the biscuits.
It's right here in black and white in print.
They lion.
An individual that came to the school saying that God sent him to talk to me about the mascot switch.
As a leader, you choose hills that you want to die on.
Why would we want to be the losing team?
I'd just take all the other stuff out of it.
On the segregation academies, when civil rights said that we need to integrate public schools, these charter schools were exempt from that.
Bigger than a flag or mascot.
You have to be ready for serious backlash.
Listen to Rebel Spirit on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back. and so is alcohol uh the consumption of alcohol
how about this perfect transition you guys read about this alcohol stuff bro are you clawing right
now dude where's cloth this man hey cloth this get in here you got a cloth you got a cloth you
got a cloth mask the best part about tangerine white cloth is you can smell it from a foot away.
There you go.
I got a morning business conference call I got to get on.
So, you know, we've talked a lot on this show about how, like, there's always articles of what millennials are killing because we're broke as a generation. But alcohol seemed to be the one thing
actually most millennials aren't really...
Beer sales were tanking a bit
because of the rise of the seltzies
and what have you.
I drop beers out of my repertoire.
I'm a claw gal.
Beers out of your repertoire completely?
Well, we have some,
but it doesn't get touched generally.
I've got my sweet claws.
I let myself have one Mike's hard if I'm having a really sad day,
but I try to keep it chill on the Mike's.
I've changed.
I've changed.
Okay.
Wait, but you call Mike's beer?
No, no, no, no.
Sorry.
I have various brands of malt liquor that makes your head
right right um but so right now you know with the quar i think everyone many people um are
starting to drink more uh in general like compared to last march's numbers online alcohol sales are up 243 percent uh and right now just all across the board when
like uh the from nielsen research they found that sale of alcohol alcoholic beverages rose 55
in the week ending march 21 and then spirits like tequila gin and pre-mixed cocktails led the way
in terms of like the biggest jump 75% increase compared to
last year and wine was up 66% beer up 42% is this um like taking into account like what's sold to
like bars and restaurants too or is it like just what people take home well I mean I have a feeling
because the week ending march 21st
a lot of bars were not i mean many places were shutting down bars and things like that so i
think this is purely from like the consumer level rather than the so um restaurant level
unfun science fact uh alcohol is pretty closely associated with cancer rates. Why would you say that?
I don't know, man.
Put down the claw.
I'm literally holding a claw right now.
Put it down, baby.
Wait, it's associated in what sense?
I don't know if it's linearly associated,
but there's pretty high correlations
between drinking alcohol,
just even regularly,
and likelihood of cancer. But people don't want to hear that but i said it um but i'm so i'm wondering if there's going to be like a spike of cancer like years down the line for from
just this event oh from all the from the claw and stuff and the mole yeah i mean hey you know but
this is yeah i drink just i just have a couple glasses of red wine every day just to relax.
And then the tannins and antioxidants.
The tannins.
The tannins, antioxidants.
Chocolate and wine is all you need.
The antioxidants are going to help me be cancer free.
Sounds like fake news to me.
Sounds like fake news.
Yeah, I don't know.
Look, Poppy, call me up in maybe four years and then you see
where i'm at i was listen i was i'm the result of a of a medical experience i sound like a
i'm the result of a medical experiment i'm not gonna let a little white claw kill me okay
you sound like janine piero all right everybody listen uh you gotta lean back though janine piero
was lean the fuck back when she might have been drunk that night that's another reason why jinx
culture is so prevalent right now janine piero massive player in the jinx franchise
oh that's right hold on hold on i'm looking up Janine Pirro young right now.
She was a protagonist, right?
She's the antagonist.
And then you learn more about her and you're like, oh, Robert Durst is right yet again.
Janine Pirro sucks.
And he says in court, he's like, Janine Pirro made me do it.
And you're like, what the fuck?
He rules.
He rules. He rules.
Now I have to bust open a claw
with my man,
Bobby D.
I think you might have viewed
that show differently
because you said
she's an antagonist.
I think most people
were watching it
thinking that Robert Durst
was the bad guy.
I actually don't think that that,
I think that that's what Andrew Jurekery
wanted you to think,
but a lot of people saw through the fog
and saw that clearly Robert Durst was the under...
I love an underdog story.
The son of a billionaire who murders three people,
allegedly.
I love it.
Allegedly.
Allegedly.
An American Joe.
So Joe Exotic has spoken. He wants either Brad Pitt or Joe Dirt, as he put it. Allegedly. Allegedly. An American Joe. So Joe Exotic has spoken.
He wants either Brad Pitt or Joe Dirt, as he put it.
There's not really much more to report than that.
No.
I mean, honestly, just hearing him say that,
like from all accounts, it would have to be Joe Dirt,
like that he said he referred to David Spade as just Joe Dirt.
That's to be the best part of this whole thing
is that David Spade has been reduced to Joe Dirt.
It's, I mean, poor Spade.
Is he a nice person?
He seems like he might be nice.
I don't know.
David Spade?
I could see him also being nice.
But why poor Spade?
He's being held up next to,
his Joe Dirt character is being held up next to Brad Pitt.
Like, that's a compliment.
That's true. That's true. Brad Pitt. Like, that's a compliment.
That's true.
That's true.
Brad Pitt should feel maybe not so good.
When we think of our great actors,
we think of Brad Pitt and Joe Dirt.
Yeah.
I mean, look at just that,
this gif of him taking his shirt off from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
and then just having old-
Wait, Joe Dirt or Brad Pitt?
Brad Pitt.
I mean, if you looked closely, there was a great Joe Dirt cameo
in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
But then David Spade, he had Saf from Tiger King,
the guy who got his arm bit off from the documentary,
interviewed him online.
And Saf was like, you know what i i believe that
you david spade should play joe exotic so we also have a saf sign off wait no saf agreed this is
getting out of control roll it back do we need any more anything to like about tiger king i feel like
we saw it all in the documentary i don't want to see a movie version of this that's i do have a
strong suspicion that like a couple months from now when when uh we're allowed to go outside again uh people
will be like i don't like thinking about the tiger king reminds me of a dark time in my life and i
don't think about it yeah just like i'm just telling you this quar the quar bar is so low
right now that you can take advantage whether it's a true crime documentary
bad stand-up whatever afterwards yeah we might come out of this being like dude fuck joe dirt
and everything about it it's just the thing we needed to talk about to sort of like put away
our nihilistic thoughts and fantasies yeah but yeah i like how now joe dirt and joe exotic are
the same thing now you misspoke and normally i would it go, but we have a policy on this show
that we never even accidentally impugn Joe Dirt.
You said fuck Joe Dirt.
Yeah, that's not okay.
Cannot let that slide.
I'm sorry.
I mean, fuck Joe Deer Tay.
Joe Deer Tay, yes.
Joe Deer Tay.
The Paycheck Protection Plan.
Does anyone have experience with this do we know i just
wanted to toss that out to zeitgang um we wanted just because unemployment is at like an all-time
high it's at depression levels i'm curious to like how people in zeitgang like have you been
filing for unemployment if so like has have people been responsive? The Paycheck Protection Plan seems to be another option that a few people tweeted at us about,
which it's qualified as an SBA loan that helps businesses keep their workforce employed during
the COVID-19 crisis.
If you've worked for a place that has actually gotten one of these loans.
I think what I'm trying to figure out, what I'm curious about is
there are all these promises and options being presented
and I'm curious at how quickly
they're actually being followed through on.
I was somewhat impressed by it.
My brother filed for unemployment less than two weeks ago
and got his first check a couple days ago,
which I feel like is faster than that normally goes
as someone who's filed for it.
I think it depends on how inundated the state is
and what their infrastructure is already.
Some states were warning years ago being like,
just so you know, our state's unemployment insurance website
will be fucked up if more than five people log on at once.
So it's added things.
But with the
Paycheck Protection Program, I have a homie who has a small business. And he was hitting me up
about it too. And he was like, you know, I want to be optimistic because it's actually the paperwork
was really light. And it seems like it's moving very smoothly. So it has offered a bit of hope
for him as a small business owner. So yeah,
if you find yourself in a situation like that, or maybe based on how you might be as an independent
contractor, there could be a way for you to get some love off that program too. But yeah, please
check out the Paycheck Protection Program. Or if you know anybody who might be in a position where
they need to take advantage of that, that's one thing. So yeah, thank you for everybody from
friends and listeners to get that word out, because I, that's one thing. So yeah, thank you for everybody from friends and listeners
to get that word out because I think that's –
there hasn't been a great write-up or repository of information
on like what to do if you need this help.
Yeah, yeah.
And so it's like we kind of have to look out for each other on this one.
And I mean experiences of any kind too
because if things are not like working the way they should be with this program, we should talk about that as well.
I already know like one small business in my area that was rejected for it and was kind of like not given a reason other than everyone's applying.
And we chose in order of how essential we felt things were.
So was it a yoga studio?
It was.
I'm thrilled to say I don't know anyone who is involved with the yoga studio it was i'm thrilled to say i don't uh know anyone who is involved with the yoga studio
just in general that's a flex you would have said that before quarantine i would have been like
do you even yeah do you even live in la there i honestly there was in my old neighborhood
um i just moved but there was uh like a small strip of local businesses that have been there forever.
My local liquor store was there.
There was a hair salon there.
There's a bunch of great stuff.
And they all got like gentrified the shit out of all the businesses closed.
Two yoga studios opened next to each other.
And I hope that they never reopen.
No, that has to be.
There has to be a law against that.
There should be licenses given against that. There's,
there should be licenses given out like with liquor licenses,
but for yoga studios.
Or like science needs to come through.
Like two yoga studios cannot be door to door or else a fire will occur or
something like that.
Yeah.
Or one needs to be burned down.
Like it's just,
let's be reasonable.
I mean, if nothing else, Joe Exotic has taught us
that we can deal with our problems via arson.
With arson.
That's still a good way to-
Underrated.
I mean, please don't,
obviously don't kill a bunch of fucking gators like he did.
That's a Robert Evans underrated.
Yeah.
Arson underrated.
Yeah.
Arson underrated. P. Arson underrated.

you know sort of lo-fi instrumental beat track but it has great like sort of looking out of a i don't

some really nice guitar sample.
