Wait, Joe Biden is out of the race? Wait, what? Okay, see, this is why I'm glad you guys hit me up, because that's how undecided I am.

I don't even know what's going on. I do love the one person. They've got the five go-to undecided voters on the front page of the New York Times. Anytime there's an election development, they're like, what do our five undecided voters like? And one of them just like doesn't give a fuck about the election.

It's just like, I don't know, I'm working. So would you stop calling my house? Yeah, that's right. It is Friday, September 20th, 2024. It's Friday! Yeah, wonderful day. Let's go full morning zoo. Yeah, it's also National Care for Kids Day,

Commemorative days. String cheese, not just for preschoolers. Okay. All right. So do you just bite? I know you're eating that string cheese. I eat it like a carrot, man. Do you oh, you don't respect the string anymore? Is that how you like man? I'm a fucking adult, bro. It depends on what kind of mood I'm in, you know? Yeah. I steal my baby string cheese and I have to like my inner child doesn't only know how to eat string cheese one way and I like to do the thinnest little strands. The finest little strands. You're a better person. I'm an artisan.

Yeah, you're just you're much more patient than I am. much more patient than I am. I need to bite off a honker off top. And then sometimes I'll do a little strip tease with a string cheese. I don't know. That's a weird thing to say. I don't like that at all. My name is Jack O'Brien, AKA Pissy Elliot. Beep beep. Whose person lips in the Jeep? Soooooooooot. That is courtesy of La Coronia on the discord. It's my favorite part of that song. He said he did have a slurping noise in there, but I, after saying string cheese strip teas, I felt like people's gag reflex probably couldn't take another weird thing.

No, I thought it was sensual. Oh, good. Thank you. My book, the very it was sensual. Oh, good. Thank you. Miles. You've looked a very sensual image. Miles, I'm thrilled to be joined as always by my co-host, Mr. Miles Gray. Yes, it's Miles Gray, aka the Lord of Lankersham,

aka the Shogun with no gun, aka Bill Shittersby because I love bidets. Love bidets. Love bidets. Love bidets. Love bidets. Love bidets. Love bidets. Anyway, I was just thinking about that this morning as I used a bidet.

That was just awesome. That was a Miles original? Just had it, yeah. That didn't even come from the discord. I love bidets. I love bidets. Love bidets. It just, it all works.

It's elegant. It's useful. Thank you for having me back. It's great to have you, Miles. Thank you so much. And Miles, we are thrilled to be joined in our third seat by a hilarious comedian, one of our favorite guests on TDZ. Dave Grohl once touched your arm and said,

hey, you're pretty funny. You can see her on stages everywhere, from California to London, to Berlin, to Singapore. It's Lydia Popplevich! Lydia Popplevich! Lydia Popplevich! I'd just like to just mention in light of the recent Dave Grohl news that I did not get pregnant when he touched my arm, unfortunately.

Okay. Unfortunately. But if there was... Maybe a close call? I mean, it could have been a close call. I mean, honestly, if there was a chance, I 100% would have had a side baby with Dave Grohl. I mean, why not? I mean, why not?

You know what I mean? Why not? Let's go. Let's go. Everybody's trying to take America's favorite dad down. Like guys aren't fucking side peeps all of the time. It's happening constantly. I know.

That's my question. I guess that I was surprised that people were surprised by it. Yeah. That it happening constantly. I know. That's my question. I guess that I was surprised that people were surprised by it. That it was new. He's a rock star. He's a touring rock musician. You trying to think he's just not like taste and tale on every single stop? Taste and tale. Why wouldn't he be?

Taste and tale like a hunter at a buffet. You know what I mean? Just a little, a little morsel of the, of the, of the local offerings. You know? I mean, I, I, I, I think I don't, I expect most people who are touring at that level to have some kind of open relationship slash secretly fucked up marriage. But yeah, I know a lot of people were shocked. They're like Jack Black and now Dave Grohl.

I'm like, I don't know if Dave, that's not really disappointing. I feel bad for his family. Yeah, it's shocking that it took this long. Right. Do you know what I mean? His family should be grateful. That's what we're here to say. I mean, he's got-

He's kept it together for how many albums? He's got at least a 19-year-old daughter. She got 19 great dad years out of him. You know what I'm saying? Like let's see what's going on. You know what I mean? What is she doing with those gold jeans? You know what I mean?

Let's pass them around. Yeah. At an interpersonal level, it sucks. At a news level though, was he like, did he have a dad blog or something that I didn't know? Like, was he like pitching himself himself as America's foremost dad, or it's just because dad rock became- I think it's because he's just not a piece of shit guy all the time.

That's exactly it. Sure. He likes to big up younger fans, talented musicians. He brings them on stage. He's very gracious and very generous with his time and energy. I think so then people are like, but he, he has like extra merit. It was just like, well, yeah. Yeah. Everyone's human.

Let's let, it was at least consensual and on purpose. You know what I mean? Like he does, I guess, and this is me speaking as like a non expert, but he does, he does seem like he's not like high on the list of people with like Sexual charisma as far as like rock stars go like he seems to be more in the like 80s TV dead range Good guy. I was gonna say you're not an expert on extramarital affairs or you're not an expert in like Dave

Grohl's... I'm not an expert on Dave Grohl's sexual charisma. I guess I am an expert on people with the sexual charisma of an 80s TV. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. So I will say... Alarm bells. I mean, as a Foo Fighters fan, as a Dave Grohl fan, I can definitely speak to his sexual charisma, which is high.

It is high. It is. Okay. It is a high charisma. And it's because it's like, but it's like nice approachable guy. It's like, uh, like you could get it. Like you could, you could get it. Like, you know, women are like, Oh, he could get it.

Like Dave girl gives very like, you can get it. Like you could get this energy. It's attainable rockstar energy. It's approachable rockstar energy. It's approachable rock star energy. Like Gavin Rossdale feels a little bit different where he's like, he's like, you know, greasy and smoking cigarettes. I don't know about him. He's too sexy. Right. You know, or like, It would be breaking news if they were like, Gavin Rossdale doesn't have a secret kid.

Like we actually just did the research. It's actually kind of fucked up. What's going on with him? And like, it's like not as desperate as Drake just fucking wagging his ding dong across TikTok. You know what I mean? It's kind of just this place where you're like, I don't think he wants it, but like, I could probably get it if I needed it, you know? And evidently someone got it and needed it and has it and now has a little receipt running it, you know? And evidently someone got it and needed it and has it and now has a little receipt running around, you know? And at least he passed out.

He passed out. And that is how I think of my kids as receipts. Little receipt that I did have sex. I called it a day. Oh, dude. Yeah, that's right. Oh, you think I'm a virgin? Hey, son number one, get over here.

Who's this? I don't know, some kid, dude. Read him Hey, son number one, get over here. Yeah. Who's this? Yeah. I don't know some kid, dude. Read them and weep. That one's too tall. That's CVS. That's not mine. That's not mine.

That CVS isn't mine. Yeah, yeah, that ain't mine. All right, Lydia, we are thrilled to have you back. We're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell the listeners a couple of things we're talking about today on this very special video episode. I guess. Wow, it's a video. There will be a video version of this episode that you can go

watch at some point, probably next week. Anyways, we're going to talk about Elon Musk being a great poet, bad for democracy. We're going to talk about fashion show that took place at the Rakan Koma. Rock on, man. Yeah. Rock on Long Island, America first warehouse. That is something else, something to behold. Yeah.

We'll check in with a, uh, a preacher who prevented a third Trump assassination in using time travel. I guess. This is someone who's been in a room with Donald Trump, I believe. And he has a wild tale to tell. So all of that, plenty more. But first, Lydia, we do like to ask our guest, what is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are?

So I recently searched how many inches is 79 centimeters? Uh, because I am still one of the people who does not understand that conversion. And the reason why is because I was actually searching bespoke pantry cabinet units, uh, from this company that makes these like really cool cabinet units that you put all of your like grains and noodles and flowers into. But it's made by a Swedish company by hand. So it kind of looks like a card catalog with like these really cool drawers and pullouts. But each one of the little containers holds a kilogram of flour or whatever. So I was like, how many

pounds is that? And then I was looking at how big the whole thing was and how many I need to like put into my pantry because that's the kind of life I live where I'm like, I've got to get my dry goods organized. And the only way to do it is by ordering this like $700 pantry system that's bespoke Lee made and measured to my unique needs and painted the color I want and shipped to me so that I can have gorgeous little drawer pulls so that when I go to pull out my cornmeal or My flower it's a beautiful and aesthetic experience Shipped you some from some foreign land that still has the metric system. I know right hasn't switched over to inches Yeah, I like how you are like, I'm still one of those people who hasn't figured out converting

I like how you are like, I'm still one of those people who hasn't figured out converting nobody has. Nobody in America fucking knows that shit. Miles off the top of your head, did you do the guess in your brain? No, because I like I turned violent. I turned violent when I hear that. Your brain just says fuck that. Yeah, I'm like, the fuck did you say? 79 centimeters?

You know, I get why, but it still sounds like not a lot, right? Like 79 centimeters, I'm like, how small is this? This is a dollhouse? Like, what does that mean? Oh shit, that's almost a meter. My brain at first was like eight inches. And then I thought better, I was like, wait, now a centimeter is like kind of not that much smaller than.

Not that much smaller. Got a little bit closer. So I guess 34 after taking some time to think about it. It is 31.1 Right. Okay. That makes sense because it's like um, I know look here. Here's my fucking math brain, right a meter 100 centimeters boom got that 79. So we're just short of about like a three foot stick Yo, is how I kind of like honestly in my in my mind. You're 100% on point there. Way to go.

Honestly, I want to see you be brave and I just did. Yeah, anyway. I'm super impressed. 79 inches. Against all odds. Is two feet, 7.102 inches. So truthfully, Miles, killing it. Making those Asians proud.

Being able to even get the math in when you don't have the right math. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You know what it is? It's probably also to, I'm maybe not, it's like probably from when I was bagging up weed all the time, because that's always in grams, but no, you don't really, that doesn't tell

you anything about centimeters. So you know what? I rest my case, my honor. Yeah. And unless you're like, I'm going to just bag up grams until I have three feet long. I'm going to put this yardstick on the ground and then I want to know how many dime bags make a yard's worth of weed. Oh, what if I would like one foot of weed, please sir?

Yes, my good man. Yes. Could you give me a half yard of weed? Thank you. You got that? Cool. Absolutely. Absolutely.

One moment. It's a cop. Yeah. I'll take 40 centimeters of cannabis, my good man. 40 centimeters. I am instinctively anti-metric system pro inches. And then they give you like the inches conversion and it's like 34.3 and you're like, oh, inches like don't go. You can't, there's no, there's nothing that you can like break it up as point three because just could you give me that as a as a

Fraction of 12 by any chance. Well, and that's you exactly. That was my exact problem I was like, okay, so two feet seven point one oh two inches like The fuck how am I supposed to like I can't round up and run down and that's I jumped over to be like, can I just tell you how many inches I want this shit? And can you make it that many inches? Or like, do I have to approximate a point? Because if I want this thing to fit flush, like, or I need two of them to fit flush, I don't want to deal with how do I deal with a 0.102 gap? Like, how does that work? Right. Or overage that you have to account for. Right. Right. I like them. And then this person's like,

I'm fucking American. Correct. We gotta stop selling to these motherfuckers. Correct. Yeah. The rest of the world should have known they were in trouble when we were like, yeah, metric system by 93.

Swear to God, 93, we're on the metric system. We're so sorry it's taken us this long. And then we just like blew through that shit. Wait, was that a thing we were gonna do? I remember when I was in elementary school, they were in like the eighties. They were like, and pretty soon we're all going to be on the metric system. So like, just be ready. I don't remember that.

Are you sure you went to like school in the eighties and not like the 1960s when they were also talking to you about red China taking everything over? Like that just feels like a super old, like we're all going to be on the metric system. We're not going to be more. I was part of the same training system that Black Widow was a part of in the Marvel films. So maybe that is where I'm getting this from. Yeah. Fair, fair, fair.

What is something you think is underrated? Honestly, September. September, wildly underrated. People want to jump. People love summer. They get hype about summer. They get hype about Halloween. They want to just skip over September, right into October, into spooky, ooky

shit, and they just, they only associate fall with fucking October, November. And I'm here to tell you, September is elite. September is an elite time. People's kids are back to school. That's a beautiful time to travel. Everyone in Europe has gone back to their job. Like if you want to go somewhere and have it be cheap in September, go anywhere you want to go in September. The only time September sucks is California because California decides to get balls hot in September whenever it else is like, Hey man, how about a cool breeze?

That's why when I saw you come on, I'm like, damn, what's Tennessee like you have a sweatshirt on? Well, actually, it's not bad. Now, we got through a terrible heatwave and it's like back to kind of, you know, mid 70s. But you still got two more weeks player that shit could come right back at any moment. I know. I know. I mean, shit, even up until November, like you're in the danger zone in LA. Yeah. But no, everywhere else. September's beautiful. It's gorgeous. I love the blue sky.

I love the light wind. All the leaves are still on the trees, but they're turning the colors. So it like, you get the beauty of like the, like the, like the sweet first taste of fall, but without the crushing reality of like leaves everywhere. Scraping all that shit up. Yeah. And down here in the south. I said scraping it up. No, it's like, you know, he's still on the weed talk. You don't know.

You gotta start bagging it up. You know what I mean? Breaking it down. Five yards of leaves. You gotta get into a bag. You know what I mean? You gotta get those together. No man, September is beautiful.

It's a beautiful time of year. I love it. And it also is my birthday month. Uh, not that I celebrate. Okay. Not that I'm a person who's like, Oh, it's my is beautiful. It's a beautiful time of year. I love it. And it also is my birthday month. Not that I sell it. Not that I'm a person who's like, oh, it's my birthday month because that's also how old are you? Stop it. Nobody gets a month.

You get a day. Calm down. Yeah, you get one day. Yeah. But I am, you know, I am, you know, pro Libra. So let's go. September. Oh, so you're, you're, we're about to, we're about to arrive.

Yeah. We're still in Virgo, but we're about to creep into that Libra business. 23rd, 22nd? 26th. 26th, okay. I was just vibing it out. See? Right at the end.

But yeah, fuck yeah, man, September. I'm all about it. I love it. Yeah, I love that. It is also the most common birthday month in- America? Humanity. For the world.

September, yeah, Because our breeding season, like when we tend to have the most sex is right around the holidays. Christmas, New Year's Eve, baby. Get it in. Christmas, New Year's, times out to September 9th is the average is out to be the most annual newborns. Yep. Yeah.

Sure. So this is one of the more convincing underrateds that I've heard. I'm fully convinced. There just needs to be and could be just an online thing of people just celebrating September. September's great. The cult of September. But then also I'm like, let's keep it quiet. You know what I mean?

Yeah. Let's gatekeep September. If you know, you know. If you don't know, keep it moving. Take your October ass into October. We don't need you in September. I think a lot of like there are things that are stealing the power of September and things that are stealing the power of September and like, you know, using that to their benefit, like pumpkin spice became such a massive thing because it's a thing that used to be a sign

that September was here. But then, you know, obviously Starbucks and late stage capitalism fucked it up and was like, what about July? You need it in August. Yeah. Like everybody calm down. No. But I think you're right. Yeah. September is the way. There's a deep seeded love of September that is unacknowledged. And maybe part of the joy is that it is unacknowledged. Yeah. It's just a chill, chill, quiet month before the shit storm starts of the holidays.

The holidays. You know, I just feel like once October starts, you're just on a, like the longest fucking fair slide, you know, those slides that are affairs that just like, I just feel like that's what October initiates is just the, I'm on a burlap sack, just flying over plastic bumps, uncomfortably trying to get to the bottom. Some people are getting thrown off the slide because the angle is way too steep.

Yeah. Careening into each other. Some people are getting thrown off the slide. Because the angle is way too steep. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

It's also like that it's right before you get into that streak where like there's a decoration for every fucking month after September. It's like you got your Halloween decorations and people putting up fucking fall cornucopia Thanksgiving shit and then fucking December hits. It's also like a busy period for the decorators amongst us. Which I can't, honestly, I can't keep up with it. It's too much. It's just too much.

Like I'll never be one of those women who is like seasonally turning out her pillows. You know what I mean? Or like changing out the flatware and like the plates and like the way the candles smell. And like, I barely have that shit in my house as it is, let alone seasonal versions of it, where I have that shit in my house as it is, let alone seasonal versions of it where I have to like go to the attic and like pull out a tote that says

fall. Yeah. Shout out to all those people that have that shit. I feel like, yeah, that would be like a chore at my friend's house when the season ended and they're like, they'd be like, you guys need to put all the decorations in the garage. Yeah. There's all these spiders in there. And you're like, why?

I'm a guest. I came over to spend the night and play Mario Brothers. Why am I cleaning off your mom's porch? They're like, because you're eating our food. Now move this shit into the ground. I'm like, okay, that's a fair point. Hey, you guys both have kids, so let me ask you a question.

I read something recently on the Instagram because that's where I read my news and TikTok and things. But there was this TikTok from this woman who was complaining because she had sent the other mom and TikTok and things. Yeah. But that's sourced. Very good. Right? There was this TikTok from this woman who was like complaining because she had sent the other mom basically an invoice for their play date. I saw that. That's wild behavior.

That was wild. That's wild, right? When it was like wear and tear on my furniture. Yes! That was like one of the things. Okay. Yeah, I saw that viral post. It wasn't like we went to the movies and you hit me back.

She had juice. No. She had X amount of chips, wear and tear on my furniture. I had to clean something up. That's like three paper towels. It was like very- I'm surprised there wasn't like a supervisor fee. Like I had to watch these kids. Supervisor fee. You know what I mean?

It was just, I mean, I totally understand if like you said, you're going to the movies, you're going to an amusement park, like whatever, like make sure they have some spending money. But I'm just like, that just is crazy behavior me. But you just you reminded me that when you were talking just about like, like, why, like, why are you helping parents? Like, I remember doing that to ever going to people's houses. And it's like, so I'm now a slave laborer. Like I came here to kick it. Yeah. And now I have to help you with your chores. Do you like that French toast I made this morning? I'm like, yeah.

Not that much. Not that much. I don't have to justify these. I got all these blisters on my ass now. My mom's is better and I get to watch cartoons after. Like, why am I here? You know, like, that's so crazy. No, I mean, I think that's a little much.

The only thing I do is I make the parents of, uh, the parents of friends that my kids have over pay a portion of our insurance premium because those kids are being covered under the insurance, you know? And so that's, I'm taking on risk. And your son, that little fucker likes to do just gainers off my roof. I don't know what the fuck is wrong with him. I haven't heard gainers since fucking middle school. It's a full gainer dude off the roof. What the fuck's wrong with this eight year old?

Oh my God. Oh shit. Lydia, what's overrated? Brett summer. Brett summer is overrated. It took me all of the summer to figure out what the fuck it meant because I'm old. Brett summer, what is this?

What is this? And I was just like, oh, it's just messy and slightly related to a Charlie XCX song, I think. I don't know. But like, I just think Brett Summer's overrated. Like, why do we need to celebrate being messy and being drunk? Like, isn't that just summer? Brett Summer?

Like, I don't like that we're fortifying just like mid drifts and skinny glasses. You know what I mean? Like, I just associate it with just like the drifts and skinny glasses. You know what I mean? Like I just associate it with just like the worst human being I've ever met and I don't want anything to do with it. I just don't like it just sounds like a music festival wrapped in COVID to me. I'm just like, I don't want any parts of Brat Summer.

No, thank you. Oh God. Hey, you going to Brat Summer? No, man. No. Sorry. I just went to the doctor. They said I should just be really careful and I should not be going to Brad Summer. Yeah, man. I saw another thing on TikTok. This girl was talking about, she was like,

I'm done with Brad Summer. I'm all about meemaw fall. And like, it spoke to me so intensely that I have like, I've taken it to heart where I'm like, yeah, I'm meemaw fall. Like, look at me. I'm in a pink sweatshirt on my porch that has like fucking doodles on it. You know, I'm all about, I'm, I'm setting on the porch, not sitting, setting, setting, setting on the porch with my dogs, long, long day. What big W what are you fixing? What are you fixing for supper later? I don't know what I'm fixing tonight. I'm probably going to order something in cause I'm feeling a little lazy. Uh, but, but yeah, exactly. I want to fix. Oh my God. That's so Brad.

Isn't it? Oh wait, that's pretty Brad. But yeah, exactly. I want to fix that. That's so brat. Isn't it? Oh, wait. That's pretty brat. Mima would be cooking something low and slow right now. Yeah. Honestly, if I had my Mima summer on, I would have something in the crock pot. If I really was about my Mima fall today, I would have something in the crock pot today. Yeah. Some manner of casserole. Yeah.

Something where the main ingredient is a cream of something soup. Yo, ask me what I made. Ask me what I made last night for dinner. What did you make? Cream of my... It was cream of mushroom. Tuna noodle casserole, baby. Yo! Yeah. That was like my number one. Cream of mushroom soup. Got the green peas. I do my own shit.

I like to saute and like, you know, really get my onions caramelized. I caramelized onions before I put it with some garlic thyme. And I put some sherry wine to fucking, you know, just to cook it down a little bit, get that flavor. Because you know, and then you put it with some panko on top, baby. Yep. Look, it's pea-paw-fall, baby. I'm telling you, man. I made a pot roast stroganoff yesterday and it was fucking fire. So honestly, we're probably having leftovers of that if I'm an extra real, but that's what it's all about, man. That's what I'm saying.

Let's just, let's just slow down. I'm going to wear my hair in a bun. I'm wearing calf dens. I'm drinking diet Coke out of a Mason jar. You know what I'm saying? I'm, I got my hummingbird feeders up. I'm watching birds fight over nectar. You know, like that's, that's what I'm, that's what I'm about.

That's much more my speed. I'm, I'm, I'm me ma fall all the way. Let's, let's go with that. Fuck Brett Summer. I can't, I can't, I can't do it. I'm, I'm, it's taking my entire body to not just go off talking about hummingbirds right now. Oh. We've had some hummingbird activity in our backyard. We have, we have, and the rumors are true, Lydia. There has been humming quite a bit of hummingbird activity in our backyard. We have, we have. And the rumors are true, Lydia. There has been humming quite a bit of hummingbird activity in our backyard. You know what? I can't get into it right now.

I get it. I have a whole situation going on out here too. Uh, it's wild. It's so wonderful. Yeah. The highlights of the time of the day, it's like seven or eight of them just going for it and they fucking fight. They dive bomb us.

It's, it's crazy. Oh yeah. Ours are aggressive. That shit just they dive bomb us. It's crazy. Oh yeah, yeah. Ours are aggressive. That shit just whistles by your ear. It sounds like you're in a war zone. Yeah. They dive bomb my dogs, which I think is hilarious. You know, like a war zone when hummingbirds fly by your head.

Yeah, yeah. Just not bullets. Exactly like that. Look, this is spoken like somebody who's seen some shit. Yeah, right. By shit, I mean, I have had Nerf guns fired at my head. Okay. But my children. All right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back. We're going to talk about

some news. We'll be right back. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16th, 2017, was murdered. There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate. My name is Manuel de Lilla. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unearths the plot to murder a one woman WikiLeaks. Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state.

And she paid the ultimate price. Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

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 US president. One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson. I always felt like Glennett was kind of his right-hand woman. 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

All you need to do is sign up at katiecurrick.com slash good taste.

And sometimes we like to just share a little poetry to level set, get everybody's soul in the right place, just kind of calm. And this is a work that Andrew T actually shared with us yesterday right after we stopped recording.

That you thought was fake, I think you were saying at first, you're like, this can't be real because it's so good. This can't be real. It's so good. Yeah. It's from Elon Musk, uh, who you might know from car making pretty good. I thought he was an astronaut. That's, that's it. He's a space guy, right? Astronaut car, uh, Henry Ford, Neil Armstrong, Henry Ford, hybrid, Elon Musk had this just like kind of spring forth from his soul. All right. Atheism left an empty space.

Secular religion took its place, but left the people in despair. Oh, childless hedonism, sans care. Yo. Oh buddy. Maybe religion's not so bad to keep you from being sad I don't follow Sorry, yeah, I know I know we're supposed to do a compliment sandwich in this writers workshop. I don't get it What the fuck does that mean, man?

Sorry, doesn't he have kids? Yeah, he's telling the story of humanity. Oh, oh, oh. But the order doesn't make any sense. So atheism, so we were atheist at the front, then secular religion took its place, but left people in despair with childless hedonism. So secular religion left people with childless hedonism, sans care, which sounds like a skincare line.

But doesn't hedonism beget children? Because when I think of hedonism, I definitely think of fucking raw all day long. That's right. Yeah. It's not like, yeah, I don't think condoms. No, I'm not thinking like planned engagements. I'm not thinking of safe risk-free activities Do you remember that one viral video that old white dude who is at the hedonism fucking resort and he's talking about the ripping in the Terran see if it in the terran and you're like one of the worst things I've ever seen miles. I do remember

That is not strike me as a guy who's like an obviously responsible safe sex. Maybe that's what he means, sans care. Yeah. That there's no care for the Rippon and the Taron. Right, right, right. But then he like comes home at the end and is like, he has this thought that I don't think anybody's ever had before. Maybe religion, not bad, keep you from being set.

So I don't know. It's just like something I was like thinking because I'm fucking weird, okay? I'm crazy. But why does the last stanza, if that's what it's called to use a poetry word, sound like it was written by Coco the gorilla? Like why?

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why did he switch that context? Like, I don't get like. Yeah. Maybe religion's not so bad to keep you from being sad is how, is how he wrote it.

I think I dropped a word. Yeah. Same difference. I was overcome with emotion, but yes, it got, it got very basic at the end there. Wow. So I just, yeah, I don't know. Like what can't this guy do? I mean, seriously, first and foremost, what can't he do?

Uh, what is the forum? Is it, was it like a small pamphlet? Was it like a zine that he printed out somewhere? Like, how are we receiving? It was a tweet. It was a tweet. It was a tweet. Are they still called tweets now that it's X?

In this house? No, but I don't give a fuck. Yeah. In this house? Uh, it's don't give a fuck. In this house? Yeah, in this house, it's still called tweets. Memaw and P-Papa or P-Paw. Yeah, Memaw and P-Paw are still called, it's still the tweets. It's still the tweets. It's still tweets.

Yeah, it's still the tweets, for sure. So, I don't know, just something to kind of, like, you're not going to be able to fully digest that anytime soon, but it's something to just, like, put in the back of your mind and start stewing over, I think. that work of... Do I need to not have gravity? Like should I be in space and just have like less gravity to understand this? Like does my brain need to be free floating in space? Maybe. 100%. To encounter Elon's galaxy brain, it does help to be in a zero G environment. Okay, okay. I just want to be fair. I just want to be fair. Yeah. It's just wild that someone with the originality of a stoned out of their mind freshman in college poetry writer

is becoming one of the more powerful information brokers in this election year and you're like, fuck dude. By the way, the person who wrote that poem did not make it to college. Like the version of that person. This is a guy who said, yo dude, I watch YouTube videos. I don't did not make it to college. Like the version of that person. This is a guy who said, yo dude, I watch YouTube videos. I don't need to fucking go to college. He went to Prager University.

Prager, yeah. Like if that guy hadn't been born with literal rubies. Yeah, emeralds. That guy doesn't go to college. But I do think it's worth just like taking a moment because he's also on an absolute tear of not just poetry and creating meaning that the human soul that feeds the human soul, but also a tear of spreading disinformation. He spread a video of a guy at a Springfield town hall meeting, claiming, like saying that he saw or heard about or had evidence of Haitian immigrants eating people's pets. And he was like, so this proves ABC was lying when they

said the city manager refuted claims about this. Of course, the person in the video was, let me get this right, just some guy and not the city manager. And he's immediately asked in the full video, he's at a reverse shot. He's in front of the city council and they're like, yeah, man, like that we've like looked for evidence. There's no evidence. That's just a rumor. And he's like, well, and that that's the actual complete clip, but Elon Musk made it, uh, because the guys at a lectern, he's like, mm, ABC.

Gotcha. Gotcha. Gotcha. Gotcha. Gotcha. Uh, I think, I think this is called, I got your ass. Yeah. And then he shared a map projecting a Trump landslide and said it was from Nate Silver.

He shared a map projecting a Trump landslide and said it was from Nate Silver. They're both like fake, obviously, but I don't think so obvious. Like, I don't know, there's a big panic happening in the news right now about like, there's more Russian disinformation being spread. Uh, there's a video of this girl who claims that Kamala Harris ran over in her car and paralyzed her for life. I mean, if it was in San Francisco, I believe it. Right, right, right.

I mean, hold on now. Hold on. So it is believable, but it's also not, I don't know. I think the thing that they should be a little bit more focused on, the other thing that like the mainstream media and Microsoft, I guess, is like really pushing, trying to push back on misinformation from other countries. But the fact that the person who owns Twitter and is like one of the three most famous people in the country and like somehow still has part of his brand with a certain section of the population that is like smart, like they think they see him and they think of

smart guy, the fact that that guy is just outright, constantly lying on Trump's behalf, like that feels like probably our bigger problem. Yeah, like bigger than the Russian thing, probably not going to lose Kamala Harris the election on its own, but if Elon Musk is retweeting the shit that they put out, then I think we have a problem. It feels weird that he's not the focus right now. Well, I think because anything with these fake stories, whether it's like, you know, about immigrants or this like clearly faked, like victim of a hit and run that like immediately was like debunked. All it, all it needs is for people to talk about it.

And then people on the right, I mean, this shit happens on the left too. Like they're just like, yeah, my confirmation bias needs that. So I'm just going to keep saying it. Cause like the polling was showing like, even though it was quickly, thoroughly debunked about like this, that the people from Haitia, as JD Vance said, were eating pets and that was debunked, the polling showed like over half of Republicans were like, no, they probably are though. Even though they just said it never happened, it probably isn't. That's all it sort of takes for people to just at least walk around in their minds thinking like, oh, yeah, you minds thinking like, Oh yeah, you never know.

You never know. You never know. So I just want to put that out there because there has been a lot of positive polling, getting coverage in the mainstream media. And I think some people are like, Harris has this in the bag. I don't think so. I think there's a lot of wild shit that can happen. Microsoft, the, the Microsoft person who's's focused on this came out and was like,

the 48 hours before the election are going to be so fucking wild. You guys are not prepared for this. Yet I think they were focused on international disinformation. But imagine what is going to be being put out there by Elon Musk and other, you know, incredibly powerful Trump supporters during that 48 hours, it's going to be absurd. Right. Well, and that's just the whole thing. I mean, you mentioned that Miles, it's a confirmation bias.

I think that a lot of people on the coasts have such little understanding of what's going on in the middle of the country and what sort of group think happens here and like just weird little threads that get pulled and become actual lore that becomes real. Like so many communities, especially here in the south and in the Midwest, like literally stand on gossip, right? Like church gossip, like community gossip, like everyone's and everyone's business. And this is like the biggest business that you could be in. This is the most gossipy shit ever. And people love sensational. Exactly.

So then if you have someone like Elon Musk, who's like quantifying these things by retweeting things like, well, that guy did it. That guy did it. That's, that's the smartest white guy I know. Why wouldn't I trust him? You know, and it's like, yeah. And the fact that she's a woman of color is going to be an underlying issue for the rest of the country. Like dead stop.

Like we can be as liberal as you want to be on the coasts, but there is a real situation on the rest of the country where people are going to need to be convinced. And it makes more sense for them to be like, well, Trump wants me to have lower taxes. Trump doesn't want us to eat animals. Trump wants to make sure, you know what I mean? That there's a wealth, like all this stuff. Like it's sad. We've got to protect ourselves from the space people that are about to land. I heard Elon tweet about it and you're like, sure.

But I mean, like to your point about the, these misinformation experts saying like the 48 hours before election day are going to be fraught because if you really think about it, right, this is going to boil down to a handful of swing states that are going to be decided by maybe at, you know, a few hundred thousand votes. And they're trying to the Republicans are trying to squeeze the margins every single place like Lindsey Graham went to Nebraska to try and like her with like how electoral votes were going to be handed out there. And all it takes is some weird fake threats or like rumors about what's

happening at a polling place to try and just put a little bit of a chill on the turnout and things can go in any direction. So, yeah. So like again, November, take your time. I know it's already September 20th. Take your fucking time, please, please, please, please. I'm both like, take your time and also like could I time travel to the day after this is over yeah just rip the band-aid off like whatever it's gonna be just like fucking let me know now man I can't

live in this liminal space anymore and actually we do have some news of a potential breakthrough in time travel that we're gonna get to after the break yeah let's take a quick break.

BPM 110, 120, she's terrified. Should we wake her up? Absolutely not. What was that?

Like what's the history behind bacon wrapped hot dogs? Hi, I'm Eva Longoria.

Hi, I'm Maite Gomez-Rejón. Our podcast, Hungry for History, is back. Season two, season two. Are we recording? Are we good? Oh, we push record, right? And this season, we're taking a bigger bite out of the most delicious food and its history.

Saying that the most popular cocktail is the Margarita, followed by the Mojito from Cuba and the Pinyucola from Puerto Rico. So all of these we have, we thank Latin culture. There's a mention of blood sausage in Homer's Odyssey that dates back to the 9th century BC. BC? I didn't realize how old the hot dog was.

Listen to Hungry for History as part of the My Kultura podcast network, available on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And because we are no better than local news, we're going to save the time travel story for the very end of the show. Yeah. Cold game. You don't have to tell them that though. Cold game.

So yeah, as we covered before the break, Trump's probably going to win again. And I don't know. You're just really preparing yourself. I know. Anybody who listens to our NBA show knows how I am about these things. Like with, as a 76ers fan, I'm just like, we're going to suck. It's over. We're only going to win 20 games this year. Hey, that's our team captain, man.

I love his fighting spirit. Fucking over dude. Why are you even going out there? Why are you even going out there? So it does seem like it's probably time to start thinking about how we're all going to dress in the next four years. To fit in, yeah. To fit in so that we don't get killed in the authoritarian autocracy.

Did you see Trump like get caught on a hot mic being like, when Kim Jong-un stands, like people stand at attention, they stand up at attention. They stand up. I want that I want that. Yeah, we're we're all gonna get I'm having that but so there was a mega fashion show It wasn't a fashion show. It was the America first designer showcase. Okay. Okay. It's a little bit classier. And yes, it wasn't wrong Conkoma, Long Island Strong Island at the America First warehouse, which is just some fucking warehouse with a bunch of Trump regalia in it. And like magas go to have like Trump watch parties.

So on Monday, about 200 people gathered to watch this America First designer showcase, which is just a fancy word for racist swap meet and talent show, I think based on the videos I saw and people were peddling their wares like sequined MAGA hats and jackets dresses lipstick with the shade of MAGA hat red because like one of the designers like you know some women don't are ashamed to wear the MAGA hat in public but with this lipstick you can let people know it's like that's red lipstick it's red lipstick it's Don't get me messed up. Don't fuck that up for the rest of us When I mean business, you know what I'm saying not to be like yes, I support racism like that's not

Exactly, so you're telling me I need to not wear red lipstick ever again sick. No, no They can't they can not wear red lipstick ever again. Sick. No, no, you are. Thanks, Trump. Look, they can't reclaim red lipstick. But maybe they can. But then there are also celebrities there, like a lady from As the World Turns, local politicians, and more than a few curious journalists. Oh, and there are artists too, like Magalangelo, which I guess is some kind of Maga Angela Lansbury.

I don't know. Or maybe a Magda Michelangelo. Yeah, that's probably what it is. I think it's Magda Michelangelo. Okay. I thought maybe it was Magda Angela Lansbury. Magda Angela. I don't know why. But she's like this artist who just paints Trump in like, she's a terrible artist.

And I don't know if we covered one of those triptychs she made recently that was auctioned off when it was like Trump as God casting Biden and Kamala Harris out of the Garden of Eden. But clearly this person doesn't know anything like like terms of actual art composition, what a triptych, how it's even supposed to be like positioned and what the three panels meet. It was just like a three like a three billboard just cacophony of colors, but there were fashions as well. Um, so I think it's important. We take a look at some of the fashion.

So first I just want to just, just to give you an idea of how like the intros were going and how much of just a flawless show this thing was. I'm just going to say got an MC that. Oh my goodness. Wow. Yeah. Here we go. This is a, yeah.

Oh, definitely a voice talent. True talent. Wow. Yeah, here we go. True talent. Yeah, oh, definitely a true talent. A voice talent. True talent, yeah. Our next designer is in here, and she's a couture designer. And... Couture. She is being, the models wearing her dresses

are pageant winners. Not only do Republicans and conservatives have beauty and brains, but they wear clothes well. No. No. Wow. God bless us. God bless us.

So this is going to blow you guys' minds. I heard she did not write any of that. She was just riffing that off the top of her head. No bless us. So this is going to, this is going to blow you guys. I heard she did not write any of that. She was just riffing that. No fucking way. Are you for real? Yeah. Yeah. Her accent is so Long Island. It sounds Australian. Yeah. Like she's like, she's coming around.

Around the world. Around the world. I'm like, Our next designer. Well, the horseshoe theory of accents. They wear clothes as well. I'm like our next designer They wear clothes as well Wow, that's such a such a thoughtful compliment to play to pay someone. Yeah You I just think it's great that you're like so smart and like look good and also you were Well, they also wear clothes as well. They also wear clothes well. Not just wear clothes.

Wow. Here is just a quick montage of some of the fashions where you hear an Emmy award, sorry, a Grammy award winning vocalist who has like an explosion of feathers coming out of his dinner jacket singing the national anthem along with some of the fashions of the evening. Okay. Look at that. singing the national anthem along with some of the fashions of the evening. Okay. Look at that. That's a big MAGA dress. What does that say on there?

America's comeback 2024. There's a Trump gown with just Trump straight, just, just as Trump on a black dress, looking like a bottle of trough. Yeah, exactly. She looks like straight up truff. She's rocking truffle sauce. It's exactly the same font. That's a bottle of truffle.

Same vertical text coming down. This person coming down the aisle now, this is Maggelangelo. This is Maggelangelo. And I think she painted her own dress. Of course she did. I like how you can see her spanks underneath it because her fucking slit is too high. What the fuck? Drew on regular clothes Acrylic paint actually, I think some people are literally painting shit on and other things are just

I think some people are literally painting shit on and other things are just, just putting patches on shitty dresses off of like Shein or something. This makes me feel a little bit better about like when I went to the Jersey shore this summer and just like going down the boardwalk, all the t-shirt stores were being absolutely dominated by Trump versus Harris, but like that is his art art form, right? That is the medium of his people is screen printed, lit up, and it's versus Harris, but like that is his art form, right? That is the medium of his people, is screen printed logo t-shirt.

100%. And just bad signs in general. The amount of like homemade Trump signs I see in people's yards, like especially as like you're driving through the haulers and you're kind of like more in like the country parts, people don't have like a Trump flag, even though there's Trump stores here everywhere. It'll literally be

like, I have this old piece of cardboard and it's too big to burn. So I'm going to paint a picture on it and just let everybody know I think America's great. What's on here? What is this scene that you've painted on it? Oh, I'll tell you about it later. Turn the camera off. Here's but also I don't want to forget this was also a MAGA talent show. Oh, and I for me, I think the highlight was log cabin Republican and recording artist of the hit song, keep it moving. parenthetical cancel cancel culture. LeVarie. Again, let's throw it to our MC who is like fucking absolutely just flawless when it comes to introducing people to really just have a nice flow and cadence to your delivery.

Here is her bringing to the stage, Lavari. Let's give a lot of applause to Lavari. Look at like 14 people. This motherfucker just got up. Sorry, her shoes don't fit No, no, like I just just for her comfort Here's la Varee All right, oh, oh. The music just went out. Whoops. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

it sounds good, but it's not me. Oh, there we go. Okay. There's a song. We're ready to make America great again. Yeah, it is the same song starting over again. Yeah. I think the DJ panicked and then stopped his song here. let's just hear some of his singing. Look at that she's there and I'm not supporting that There's no holding back Don't need to restrain myself

Don't hold him back Okay, I'm sorry. So it seems like he thought there was gonna be lip syncing and like he didn't know, he was like, oh shit, is this playing my actual voice? I mean I don't I feel like the creative arts really exposes bigots you know what I mean like in the best fucking way like I get that these are not the best of the best in terms of like conservatives with who oh sorry that these are not the best of the best when it comes to conservatives who dabble in the arts. But I think it's like the MAGA brand itself that creates this like echo

chamber that's a custom built to insulate like insulate the ego from realizing how bad shit is. So naturally, when there's like a showcase of these people, it's all like the least creative and most literal nonsense you can think of like the guys hit songs song is like cancel culture or here's my Trump fashion. It's dressed with Trump on it. Uh-huh. Yeah. It says it wrote, I wrote Trump on it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's sick, dude. It's fucking sick, man. Thanks, Lavari. The end of his performance, he comes off stage and then there is five seconds of a whispered argument between him and the MC about where she's like, what happened? He's like, that wasn't the song that I was supposed to be singing.

Oh, wow. I love that. Why did you give so many songs? Like, did he come in with the wrong CD? Did he like, Oh no, he does. That was like the first performance he had amongst songs? Like, did he come in with the wrong CD? Did he like- Oh no, he does. That was like the first performance he had amongst many.

Like, he also, I think he did an outfit change later and he came out like in a dress, like a dress coat that looked, again, had like a bouquet of flowers super glued to the back of it. It was all very wonderful. He's really doing his best. This is like a series of like RuPaul's Drag Race mini challenges

that I feel like he's a part of. For he's like, record your own song that's politically themed, then we need you to come out with an outfit and it needs to have flowers and also represent Trump. And then for your last thing, we're going to need political damage extravaganza. Like just like, and you have to come up with it all in the next 15 minutes. You're on in 15. Done, done, done. Wow.

I didn't know he came back out. And that is a real testament to the human spirit that he was able to like go through what appeared to be the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen somebody have happen to them and be like, not so bad. I'll go back out. Yeah. I'll go back out for the next one. That's why he's, that's why Trump's going to win though, because it's that lack of self-awareness. Not so bad. I'll go back out. Yeah. But see. Again.

For the next one. That's why Trump's going to win though, because it's that lack of self-awareness. It's that unwillingness to be shamed when you should be ashamed of yourself. Yeah. To keep pushing. Yeah. Anybody who respects themselves will be like, all right, I thought I could handle this. But in no way I'm going to go out here and do this again.

Yeah. Right. I'm sorry. Lavatory, I loved your performance, but you need to stay home. You know what I mean? Let's put your career down. Laboratory. Definitely winning amongst people who failed the mirror test.

You know, the test that they do with like children to see if they recognize the thing in the mirror as themselves, you know, like they lack any form of self-consciousness, it's an interesting They're like, who's this weirdo? It's an interesting detail that like that's when you start storing memories is once like the way they tested is they put a little like dot on the baby's head. And then if the baby sees themselves in the mirror and then like touches the dot on their head to like wipe it off, that means that they recognize that it's them in the mirror. And there are some monkeys who can do it as well. What about dogs? I don't think any do it as well. What about dogs?

I don't think any dog has yet passed. What about magas? They also bark when they see themselves in the mirror. They also bark when they see themselves in the mirror. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Hey, who the fuck's that guy? Who's that guy? Who the fuck is this dude? There's this fucking guy outside. What's up? I'm staring at him. That's why he was so confused about what this song was. He's like, that's not me.

That's not me. It is, lavatory. That is your song. No, dude, you recorded that earlier. He's like, that's not me. That's not me. It is, Lavatory. That is your song. He's like, I sound like Montel Jordan. That's not Montel Jordan. This is how we do it. Cancel, cancel, culture. No, Miles, that was so much better.

Both of what you guys just did there was both so much better than anything he could do if you gave him a year in the studio with like Drake's producers. Right. I don't know why I picked Drake. The best musician I can come up with, Drake. The man who definitely writes all his own raps. 100%. 100%. No L's taken either with him. None. All right. And finally, proof of time travel.

Another person in the world of mega. So the, you know, Trump is averaging what someone called too many assassination attempts per month at this point. There's been one, uh, two in the past three months. People should stop doing that. I feel like it's not good for, for the election. But I guess there was a third one that we didn't know about. Technically this would have been the second based on the sequence, chronology.

The timeline. Yeah. The sequencing. Yeah. And this is somebody, so you're about to hear from somebody who has been in the same room with Donald Trump, has been, like I said, has been, you know, trusted by Donald Trump. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he, we can see why, because he has a direct line to God. To God.

And he's having conversations with God. And their relationship, his relationship to God, very similar to like Marty McFly and Doc Brown. Yeah, or Aladdin and the Genie. Yeah, definitely Aladdin and the Genie type shit. So this guy, Robin Bullock, he went on some like this, this like right wing watch like dug this clip up because this guy goes on a fucking like Christian podcast to talk about this was in the week before the, they found the guy at the golf course where he said he prevented an assassination attempt and I'm just going to let him tell it to you because it's so believable, it's going to fucking shake you to your core.

Yeah. So he's describing that he was like in a group, I think just, you know, just doing some Bible study with people and then the fucking hand of God came down. And again, like I said, very believable. And I looked around something that happened, and I didn't know what had happened. And children started going to sleep in the room. They just started falling asleep. That might be because they're at a fucking Bible study.

But OK, yes, sir. God turned the lights down. Down low. Go ahead. study but okay yeah sir God turned the lights down down low go ahead and the camera that they were using started zooming in and zooming out then it really doing like this I think he's describing extreme close-up from Wayne's world yeah but okay but again this is God apparently operating the camera and he's looking at them whatever go. Go on. I'm sorry pastor Again And I went into the future and the Lord said, now you can stop this. We stopped a presidential assassination attempt on Trump. Really?

And all of that happened? Did you say on Trump? Yeah. Wow. And so we stopped this thing happening in the future. There it is. So, do children need to be asleep for time travel to happen or just to stop assassinations on trial? Look, look, look, look. Why is he on trial right now? Okay. He opened up Bible and the

lights went dim. The camera went, woo, woo, woo, woo. God said, you're two hours in the future. And I guess being two hours in the future, he said, we started dealing with some things, total lack of detail, and we stopped an assassination attempt. Yada, yada, yada. We stopped an assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Oh, okay. Chris Angel Mind Freak Show has really taken a turn. Yeah.

I didn't know that he had had a spiritual awakening. He looks a little rough. I'm not gonna lie. But I know you gotta look rough and then you find God and then God takes you back to moisturizer supposedly I don't I don't know but Wow, so you guys think let's just shake this camera. We're two hours. We're two hours in the future We're two hours

We did start dealing with some things We're dealing with some things. We did start dealing with some things. We did deal with some stuff. We're dealing with some things. Well, what specifically? So... Some things. So foggy there. He's like, and then, so we, and then we're two hours in the future.

Did God tell him they stopped an assassination attempt? They started doing... Yeah. God told him that he was two hours in the future. Okay. But I think and then he intuitive. Yes. He could. And I must have stopped assassination attempt. Yes. Oh, so you think he just be like, Oh, just take my word for it, bro. We got it. We're two hours in the future. And you stopped an assassination attempt. Now go wake these kids up. I mean, I've hung out with Christians, like kind of freaking each other out being like, and then like the

lights flickered and like, you know, and they'll just, you know, that that's what it felt like, like, the guy was just like, Whoa, he was ready. Oh, he was very ready to be freaked out by that story. I mean, I just love the two like you can't, it's I guess it's like rude to be like, nah, man, bro, stop fucking lying, bro. You can go two hours in the fucking future. You know what I mean? Like, like there's no shit about like that. When does God ever taking people time traveling, bro?

And there's a type of Christianity, not all Christianity, but a type of Christianity that's just like, yes. And yeah, right. Right. Yes. And some wild, the least convincing ghost story ever. Oh, absolutely. Absolutely. That's so sick. You went two hours in the future And the camera went like this. Whoa The mirror don't like this That's a miracle of Christ's love Anyway, I think the FBI may need to talk about may need to talk to this man Right. I would pull up like so what happened bro? You said this happened, right?

I need to know who the fuck, what was going on? Where? Like we need to bring people to justice. He's like, look, man, I ain't fucking time travel, dude. I'm just fucking lying, bro. This is a fucking wig, man. I wear a leather jacket to seem different, bro. I'm naval lint.

I mean, they bring in psychics and shit when cases start, when they've exhausted, they're like, I don't know, go get a psychic. Do we have a medium? Does a random medium know like, let's go get the Christian guy that can turn back time. You know what I mean? Bring Cher in, bring Cher. Exactly. Yeah.

Thank you. If you want to turn back time, it's going to be in a leather jacket. Cher. It's not going to be this motherfucker. It's Cher on a fucking battleship. Exactly. Partially what he's describing seems to be just like taking a nap. Like everybody falls asleep and then it's two hours in the future.

Like, yeah, man, like I time travel like that. Bro, what a, hey, hey, pastor, what are those pills you just took before you opened your Bible, bro? I was just saying, Oxy's. Were there edibles in the middle of that Bible? They're prescribed to somebody else. But, you know, I do have a prescription. Since Roxy Music, Roxy Code, I don't know, man.

Anyway, I'm not off in them two hours in the future. And guess what? I wasn't. I didn't urinate myself because I was high on opioids. I actually saved President Trump in that two hours, which y'all don't know. That's a side effect of time travel. Well, now it makes sense what happens to me at Costco. I eat 20, 30, 40 milligrams, get in the car, go to Costco. Next thing I know, bam, I'm in the parking lot trying to fit everything in.

I'm like, who bought all these burritos? Why do I have so many snacks? Like, now I know. That's because you saved a president's life. I saved a president's life and I time traveled. Exactly. I just thought I was high at the store. How to save a life.

Fascinating. God damn. Exactly. I just thought I was high at the store. I just thought I was high at the store. I just thought I was high at the store. Fascinating. God damn.
