Whole new level.
And we are thrilled
to be joined in our third seat by the hilarious comedian, Blair Saki.
Hey, everyone.
What's up?
Oh, I'm so glad to be back.
You are?
I'm so glad to have you.
Good to see you.
Good to see you, too.
How have you been?
I've been really good.
I've been feeling great.
I'm loving the sunshine in LA.
Traveling this great nation.
Wow.
Yeah.
Where have you been?
Gosh, I've been Delaware, New Jersey, Chicago, Indiana.
All the hits.
Yeah.
How was Delaware?
It was good.
Wilmington.
I've never been there before.
Okay.
Yeah, it was really nice.
They have a great comedy audience there.
Who knew?
Wow.
I mean, yeah, who did know?
Who knew?
The only thing I know about Delaware is from Wayne's World.
Yeah, look, we're in Delaware.
Yeah, when the backdrop just goes, we're in Delaware.
Biden, isn't he from Delaware?
Yep, that's him too.
I mean, that's how I knew it was a great comedy state.
I think Capriati's Subs is also from Delaware.
Capriati's?
Yeah, have you had Capriati's?
Nope.
Oh, boy.
They do this.
They roast their own turkeys.
This is not an ad, okay?
This is how much I'm about sandwich life.
They roast their own turkey and their own roast beef, so it's not sliced.
It's pulled sort of meat.
And they have a thing called the Bobby, which is basically like fucking Thanksgiving sandwich
with stuffing and cranberry sauce, the whole joint.
I need to try that.
When you go to these various locations,
are you just like seeing the inside of your hotel room and the comedy clubs?
Or do you get out to do any sightseeing of Indiana?
You go to a cornfield or something like that?
No, we haven't.
We just see the inside of our hotel rooms, except for in Chicago,
we did get deep dish pizza.
Nice.
And we went to Ron Funch's, his house that he grew up in.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
So besides that, no.
Just stormed it?
Yeah.
Just the family that lived there now was like...
It's still members of his family that live there.
Oh, that's dope.
Yeah.
Nice.
In Vegas?
In Chicago.
Oh, in Chicago.
Oh, yeah.
I'm sorry.
You know, I was reading the Capriotti's website.
It said they won awards in Vegas.
It's totally fine, Miles.
I respected the Ron Ford function.
Everybody should know that half of the stories we tell on this show are just things that Miles is reading at the time, just words he's reading.
He's like very Kaiser Soze in that way.
He's just pulling stories from the words around the room.
I've never said anything spontaneously either.
Everything's very premeditated.
Everything's just pulled off the bottom of coffee mugs for some reason.
Mr. Kobayashi.
Well, I love having stand-ups on who are out there touring the country
because I feel like you guys have a real good vibe of what's hitting,
what people are thinking, what people are feeling right now in the country,
in the zeitgeist.
So it's good to have you on, Blair.
Thank you for your service.
Oh, my God.
Thank you.
Yeah.
No, it is a huge service.
Somebody has to do it out there.
And it's a big burden providing joy for all the people in the world.
Can I ask you something possibly personal?
Sure.
On Twitter, you said you would never fuck a dude who didn't know how to
grill again and i'm curious did you what happened did you realize some dude you're dating could not
throw it down on the grill or is this one of those jokey tweets none of my tweets are jokey
their cries for help um no my i don't i think my last two boyfriends bless their hearts
both incredible people um but i don't think either of them could grill oh wow yeah it's so easy
yeah you just gotta you just have to embrace the flame yeah well to be honest i don't actually know
how to grill sure um i have tried it but right now like my focus is perfecting a steak in a cast iron
skillet okay um i don't want to depend on a man to reach the heights of luxury um fantastic but i
also do feel i need to grill i really need to learn what's the bar because like burgers hot
dogs easy to grill chicken a little trickier than Chicken's easy. Then once you get to fish.
Well, it's all about how you use it, right?
You don't want to overcook your shit on too high heat on the grill.
Have maybe half your grill going a little bit lower so you can rest that shit and use some indirect heat.
I know.
I'm just saying that's a higher level than just throwing some burgers on.
What do you need?
Look, obviously, the highest heights are preferred of grilling acumen.
So what's the highest height for you?
I mean anything.
They know how to do everything.
Oh, so corn?
They're baking and shaking.
They're, you know, marinating.
They're all this shit.
But I would take, like, an average standard level is good with me.
Okay.
If they could just do chicken and burgers and stuff, I think that would be nice.
As long as you're literate.
That would make me feel taken care of.
Wow.
I love that.
That's nice.
As long as you're literate.
That would make me feel taken care of. Wow.
I love that.
That's nice.
It was a big, like, over the 4th of July, we had some families over.
I was working the grill.
Nice.
I did a decent job, and my wife was shocked that I did a decent job with the grill, like,
almost condescendingly.
Wow.
Oh, wow.
But it was a real turning point.
I feel like I got a chip.
Like, I got a little-
What'd you cook?
Just chicken and burgers and hot dogs and see yeah if you keep the chicken moist you know
then you're doing your thing usually i set the chicken on fire oh wow and she's like gather
around everyone to do let's taste jack's shoe leather exactly i feel like i don't know why i
mean maybe if you grow up with a grilling dad like I associate that with being a man right sure but you know that's just a stereotype or something but I also my family's really into
food so I associate food with love as well yeah of course of course my love language one of my
deepest love languages my deepest deepest yeah you know literate in the love language of food
all right Blair we're gonna get to know you a little bit better in a moment first we're gonna tell our listeners a few of the things we're talking about we got the latest language of food. All right, Blair, we're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell our listeners
a few of the things we're talking about.
We got the latest list of top baby names for the year.
We're going to look at those
because these are some new names.
I guarantee you, if anyone has had a kid
in the last few years
or you know somebody who has had a kid in the last year,
I'm surprised how many of these names,
and no shade at you if you pick these.
These are nice names. pick these these are nice names
yeah these are fine names
they're just very
names that they're going for uniqueness
and it must be
missing the mark of it
it must hurt a little bit when your unique name
is the most popular name of the year
we're going to talk about
fucker Carlson being just a
basically putting a hit out on Ilhan Omar we're going to talk about fucker Carlson being just like basically putting a hit out on Ilhan Omar.
We're going to talk about where Steyer should be spending his hundred million dollars instead of on his own fake campaign project.
We're going to talk about the social media summit that is happening today.
Trump is holding a social media summit that just turns out to be a who's who of right wing ghouls on social media.
Some some mean people that horrible right wing cartoonist, I guess, got disinvited at the last second.
So we'll talk about that. Mike Pence's camp is still can't explain why he abruptly canceled his New Hampshire trip.
Have we talked about that at all? The fact that he-
I think it happened right around the time
we were about to break for the weekend.
Okay.
So I don't know.
Yeah.
I don't think so.
Anyways, Mike Pence was traveling to New Hampshire.
His plane got turned around.
The trip was canceled and they were like,
oh, don't worry, it's not a big deal.
But it seemed weird,
like something had happened back in DC.
He was immediately called back to DC. It was the same day that Vladimir Putin had a similar thing
where he was meant to be somewhere and got pulled back to Moscow and had a meeting with all his top
military advisors. So people were like, is something happening? So we're just going to
talk about the fact that there's no new news on that, while also talking about something that, I don't know, could be related. We'll just put the stories
next to each other. The fact that 28 women partied at Mar-a-Lago with Donald Trump and
Jeffrey Epstein, that was the entire list of people who were at that party. We're going to talk about how polite society welcomed Jeffrey Epstein back after his 2008
conviction for pedophilia.
And we're going to talk about Nicki Minaj pulling out of the Jetta World Fest in Saudi
Arabia.
But first, Blair, we'd like to ask our guest, what's something from your search history
that's revealing about who you are?
Oh, well
the last search was Gabe Liedman.
Gabe Liedman. Do you know him? Yeah.
He's been on. Oh, yeah. Hasn't he? Yeah.
No? No.
Maybe that's a reach guest.
Miles made that up. Yeah.
Yeah, I was just like stalking
Gabe Liedman, seeing
what his...
Oh, you know why I'm thinking he's been on?
Because he works on PEM 15 with Maya and Anna.
And I've met him before.
Okay, never mind.
Got it.
Bye.
Yeah, he's hilarious.
Does that reveal my innermost workings?
Yes, very much so.
He was also on Couples Therapy, right here on this network.
Wait, so what do you think?
What were you looking about him?
You just wanted to see photos?
Did you just go to images right away off the rip?
Yeah, I just wanted to know.
He's doing my show next week, and so I was gathering info.
Nice.
Yeah, creepy.
Nah.
Creepy, creepy girl.
It's research.
Yeah.
Gathering intel.
I think it's less creepy when you say you're gathering intel about a subject.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Is he the dude who always tweets and then writes send at the end of it?
Mm-hmm.
He's a genius.
That's very funny.
Yeah.
I don't know how he does it.
I don't know where he came up with that.
Yeah.
What is something you think is overrated?
Overrated. Okay with that. Yeah. What is something you think is overrated? Overrated.
Okay.
MMA.
Sorry.
I don't know.
Sorry.
Like, maybe I'm crazy, but I don't like watching people get their face bashed in.
Second, men, particularly liberal men that criticize the pitch and cadence of women's
voices.
Are overrated?
Or is that related to MMA? No, no. oh yeah i also overrated yeah yeah also overrated yeah another one need to
go fuck themselves yeah no it's it's the worst thing in the world it's like my number one problem
with podcasting oh it's crazy i mean you can imagine if i do get a critique from someone,
sometimes it does happen to be in that arena.
Right.
But it's so funny, like, these liberal men who posit themselves as, like, these compassionate, caring supporters of women,
and they have no idea they're deep-rooted issues of misogyny.
Right, and that's how it comes out.
Coming up with another way to write off women and hearing them.
So hard to take them seriously.
If you're talking like that, I don't know how I'm going to take you seriously.
What do you mean?
Talking like what?
Right.
Exactly.
They don't realize how revealing that is about them.
But that is just a constant problem for anybody who works in podcasting.
I mean, look, if you're really looking at it logically,
if you're bothered by the sound of anything,
just stop listening to it.
There's no point in then being like,
I have notes on how this sounds.
But also challenge yourself to think
about why you have a problem with the sound.
No, it's probably because you're a Libra.
As you learned yesterday,
just don't be introspective.
Blame your birth sign.
There you go.
But yeah, I'd like to say, sure, I too would like to have Miles' voice, but I don't.
I wouldn't.
I'll switch it.
We should switch one.
We would all like to have Miles' voice, Claire.
To sound like a young Brad Pitt.
What is something you think is underrated?
Underrated, definitely people who order tuna at Subway.
That's a type of renegade personality that I'm trying to surround myself with.
Wow.
Blair.
Risk takers.
I knew I loved Blair because that's my fucking shit at Subway.
And they look at me like I'm fucked up.
It's so funny because some of my closest friends order tuna at Subway
and I would never do it.
I'm a food freak,
but I appreciate it so much.
Right.
Yeah.
The risk taking it requires.
You have to know thyself.
Right.
No,
it's just like taking the pin out of a grenade and casually walking away.
And like,
I love that about people.
Right.
Thank you so much.
Yeah.
There's something about it.
I was,
I think a few episodes ago or when we, i think when we went to sketch fest or something i was talking about my trials
and tribulations of trying to procure a subway tuna sandwich at the airport oh right the fuck
is this man you got a fucking subway and no fucking tuna and i'm like all right give me turkey then
but but i mean it should be illegal for you to carry that onto a plane
i'm a renegade. Right.
Hey, look,
if motherfuckers can fart all day on you,
I can eat my fucking tuna sandwich.
I'm willing to trade that because I had,
oh my God,
I didn't even tell you,
when I got back from Oregon,
this dude got out of his seat
and I'm in the aisle
and he went to go get his bag,
farted in my fucking face.
Oof.
Did you say anything?
I went,
this is what I did.
Oof.
That says it all all I didn't think
the only
only logical step
is I would've blown
I would've been like
hey my man
right
you farted
pon my visage
right
do you think
do you think you did it intentionally
or you think it's just that
trapped gas
no I get it
yo yo
I look
that's why
part of me wasn't mad
because
you know the altitude fucks your stomach up.
It really does.
Have you ever ripped ass on an airplane?
Yes.
Yeah, no.
Like, if you do do it, you're just like, no, I'm so sorry.
I'm the worst person in the world.
I never wanted to do this to people.
I never wanted to do this to anyone.
And you do say that out loud before you do it, right?
No, no.
What, miss?
No, no.
I put on my sleep mask and my headphones so no one, I can't know that I'm there.
Oh, wow.
I think that's the whole reason that they make planes so loud is so that you can't hear
all the farting that's going on.
It's just to cover it up.
That was a design feature.
When the Wright brothers were figuring out air travel, they're like, well, hold on.
We need the sound to be loud to cover our flatulence.
I mean, you honestly can't hear most farts.
You can never feel them.
You only feel them.
You smell them.
The other thing I do is I'll take the air conditioner,
air thing, the valve.
And fart directly into it.
And I try and do it so it's like directly creating a wall of air
so their farts will be blocked by my air conditioning thing.
It does not work.
It's not scientific.
I was about to say.
Because diffusion works very differently than that.
Right.
But, you know, that's what it is.
And also, like, the other thing is, look, and I got some people were coming at me on
Twitter because I was talking about someone who was farting the whole flight I was on
and they were nasty.
And look, I get you have to fart or whatever.
But if you are farting like nasty, smelly ones.
Right.
You can go to the bathroom, do do your thing or at least acknowledge to me
like yo look I gotta be honest with you
I got something going on.
I would hate that if someone apologized
to me. I would be like I cannot
handle this.
This is too intimate.
This conversation. I will
die. Blair I'm sorry for the farts.
Oh my god.
It's not your fault. But I love how you're farts. Oh my God. And maybe gives you a long, it's not your fault.
But I love how you're trying to curate air paths.
Yeah, right, exactly.
As like some sort of moat in the sky.
Yeah, exactly, right.
Finally, what is a myth?
What's something people think is true that you know to be false?
Oh my God, I recently found out that despite what is shown to us in the media,
Oh my god, I recently found out that despite what is shown to us in the media, in movies and TV shows, you don't have to wait 24 hours to file a missing persons report.
Oh, really?
Isn't that crazy? Like, why do they perpetuate this myth forever?
Really?
Yeah.
Wow.
Like, you witness your kid get kidnapped, and then you call the police, and they're like, nothing we can do, ma'am.
Well, when was it? Can you come back?
Just now. See if they come back in 24 hours and let us know. kidnapped and then you call the police they're like nothing we can do man well when was it just now
see if they come back in 24 hours
and let us know
don't you think that's like
wildly irresponsible
but I mean it makes you think about
so when they're writing these TV shows
because you always think that they have experts
that inform them of all this shit
no
all legal shit is basically made up.
Like the phone call is a lie.
The fact that you get a phone call.
Oh, that's not true?
That's not true.
You don't get a phone call?
And you should just never talk to cops.
Just be like, lawyer.
Yeah, lawyer.
Every time.
Lawyer.
Any interrogation scene shouldn't happen.
Yeah, when it's just you and a cop
hitting you with a phone book
that's what the
also if they
don't read you
your Miranda rights
you're not like
free to go
that's not the case
they have to present that
at some point
but
and what the Miranda rights say
is that you shouldn't say
shit without a lawyer
damn
you learned a lot
at that sovereign citizens
conference
I was just about to say,
you could commit a lot of crimes
because you're really up on the laws
and how to get around it.
Yeah, I studied up for my upcoming...
Criminal future.
We'll talk about it offline.
Okay.
Guys, real quick,
let's talk about the top baby names.
Yeah.
We're halfway through 2019
and let's just read through them because they are... I mean, they're the names that I've heard people giving their kids, and I thought, well, those can't be very popular.
Yeah, this company, Nameberry, they've been collecting the data from the Social Security Administration, everything, and just off the rip, the top two names are Archie and Isla. Yeah. Okay? Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. Archie. two names are Archie and Isla.
Yeah.
Okay.
Archie.
That's fine.
Okay, whatever.
Now let's go through the top 15 of each name.
Okay.
And tell me if you know anyone by this name or have heard of someone's child by this name.
Isla, Olivia, Aurora, Ada, Charlotte, Amara, Maeve, Cora, Amelia, Posey, Luna, Ophelia,
Ava, Rose, and Eleanor.
Luna is so, like I've heard that. I know a Luna and I know a Cora, Amelia, Posey, Luna, Ophelia, Ava, Rose, and Eleanor. Luna is so, like, I've heard that.
I have friends who have that name.
I know a Luna and I know a Cora.
That's Chrissy Teigen's daughter.
Yeah, that's wild because I thought those were unique names.
Even, so the boy's number one name being Archie,
like when the royal family named their prince, Prince Archie,
everyone was like, oh my God, that's so cute.
Like, what a cute name.
It's like, nah, that's basically like our Michael.
Or I mean, I guess it could be that there was just an enormous spike after they named
their kid Archie or after Riverdale came out and just was the littest show in the history
of television.
So good.
Well, Jughead is number 89.
And then so boys, it's Archie, Milo, Asher?
Okay.
Jasper, Silas, Theodore.
Jasper.
Jasper.
Jasper.
Atticus, Jack.
Old Prospector.
Arav.
A-A-R-A-V.
I don't know if I completely butchered that.
Finn, Oliver, Felix, Henry, Wyatt, and Arian.
Arian. Which I'm not sure spelled like the aryan
the aryan race a r y a n not like aryan foster a r i n right and i don't know i don't know many
people named aryan i don't know any people named aryan but that's what the weird problematic and
harsh for that person to go through life with that name. Yeah, who else is Arian? Everyone just like, hands up.
So I just brought up the top popular names of the 80s just to give you,
because those are the names of the people who are in the public.
Yeah, who we are and who are becoming public figures now.
Number 15 is William.
So all the people we know named Will
just replace that with Arian,
and that's what that shit's gonna be in 30 years.
But that's a whole decade we're looking at, right?
Because we're talking about six months out of 2019.
Michael, just replace all the people you know
named Michael with Archie.
Damn.
That's crazy. Matt, replace it
with Jasper.
That's where we're headed. Jasper's
kind of tight if you named it after
the Susan's character.
Or Jasper, the
vampire from Twilight who
has no control over not eating
people. That's what
Sophie Lichterman was saying.
A lot of Twilight names on here.
Or at least that one. I know a lot of people by
these names and it's also surprising because
they do seem so
unique. Right. When they come up with
them. Where does Blair land in 80s
popularity? Blair. Let's check it. 80s
gotta be big, right? Blair?
I was born in
1997.
97? Wait, were you born in the 80s?
Blair, you're not on there.
Okay, I want to make sure.
No, yeah, because I think we were relatively around in college at the same time.
Yeah, I'm surprised Blair's not on there.
I found out.
I Googled it.

god i mean i don't know maybe i'm living in some fucking parallel dimension but like a lot of these
like theodore i think is because of theodore roosevelt like be like he had that moment in
pop culture where i was like yo yo, that dude's so cool.
Bit of a mom.
People love these sort of old timey vibes, like something that's cool and old timey.
Atticus, Atticus Finch, Jack, Leonardo DiCaprio's character from Titanic, Oliver, Oliver Twist.
I feel like if it is cool and evokes a Gilded Age personality or whatever,
people really are feeling that right now.
But fucking Arian?
Dude, Sorin is number 30.
Atticus is almost, I mean, that is a brutal name.
I'm sorry.

Addie? Addie is cute. addy is cute addy is cute i guess i mean i like a lot of the
girls names too like ophelia luna posy those are all like pretty names that i would never assume

this theme of like the guilt like it's just elodieodie, Lucy, Evelyn, Astrid, Anne, Iris, Violet, Eloise, Aurelia, Adelaide, Maisie.
Yeah, they're all the same almost.

Young Wheezy.
Young Wheezy.

We will be right back. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist

There are crooks everywhere you look now.
The situation is desperate.
My name is Manuel Delia.
I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere,

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.

I'm Keri Champion, and this is season four of Naked Sports,
where we live at the intersection of sports and culture.
Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry.
Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese.
I know I'll go down in history.
People are talking about women's basketball just because of one single game.
Every great player needs a foil.
I ain't really near them.
Why is that?
I just come here to play basketball every single day, and that's what I focus on.
From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports.
Angel Reese is a joy to watch.
She is unapologetically black.
I love her.
What exactly ignited this fire?
Why has it been so good for the game?
And can the fanfare surrounding these two supernovas be sustained?
This game is only going to get better because the talent is getting better.
This new season will cover all things sports and culture.

And we're back.
I'm sorry, number 96, someone's named Beckett.
Beckett?
Like the old trading card fucking magazine that told you the price of the trading cards.
I know a ton of Becketts.
You do?
Yeah.
Fuckload of Becketts.
Wow.
No.
You know a fuckload of Becketts?
Yes.
Like that are children?
Yeah.
Oh, like new Becketts.
Young Becketts.
Yeah, like little.
Wow.
Little baby.
Little baby Becketts.
I was wondering, it seems like there are some that are, like Asher is,
like the number four name during the 80s for girls was Ashley.
So maybe going Asher is like the sort of, like Becky, Beckett.
I don't know.
Maybe there's something where you take the girl's name and make it a boy's name
and that's seen as cool.
I don't know.
Let's read between the lines, man.
Anyways.
Let's read the matrix.
As much as we would love to keep talking about names,
we do have to talk about Tucker Carlson for some reason.
Well, yeah, I know.
It's like fucking, it's nonstop.
He reached new lows again on Tuesday
when he fucking just basically,
so, you know, like most people on the left, they have a lot to say about the treatment of asylum seekers and migrants at the border, especially the the situation with children.
And then we've just heard about this report of this 15 year old girl who said she was assaulted by a uniformed guard.
So, you know, when people have criticisms of it seems like it's founded in
something right uh tucker carlson used ilhan omar's criticism of these camps to just go on a
fucking rant and warn the country okay that she is quote living proof uh that the immigration
system is dangerous to this country he says she's a living fire alarm a warning to the rest of us
we better change our immigration system immediately
or else. Or else.
Then he goes on to say, virtually every
public statement she makes accuses Americans of bigotry
and racism. This is an immoral country, she says.
She has undisguised contempt for the United
States, for its people. That should worry you.
Not just because Omar is sitting member of Congress.
Ilhan Omar is also living proof
that the way we practice immigration has become dangerous,
blah, blah, blah. And she goes on to say the problem is deeper.
Maybe we are importing people from places whose values are simply antithetical to ours.
Who knows what the problem is?
But there is a problem in whatever that because this cannot continue or whatever.
He says not sustainable.
So be grateful for Ilhan Omar and knowing as she is, she's a living fire alarm. And basically sort of saying like, only in America could a Somali
child, immigrant, refugee
come to this country and then become
a very powerful member of Congress. Yeah, that's
partially the beauty of this country. That's the
problem with this country is what he's saying.
Well, he was saying, no, no, but then he was
saying she should be more grateful
because of that. Oh, if you're allowed to do that,
then why are you giving
a clear-eyed analysis of our foreign policy and domestic policy?
Right.
And there's a clear dog whistle where he says, or maybe the problem's deeper than that.
Maybe we are importing people from places whose values are simply antithetical to ours.
So he's basically saying Muslim people.
Of course.
And shit like this really makes me fear for her safety.
Yeah, dude.
Because on top of being a Muslim woman of color, she has the media on the right fucking nonstop painting her as this fucking terroristic threat.
And when you just see the amount of death threats she's received and just like the shit that she has to go through simply for voicing her opinion it shit like this is just like dude no and like who the fuck else is even still sponsoring like who
are his advertisers i think it's like still like bear and my pillow guy yeah it's a cadillac giant
to kind of but it's funny a lot of these companies i'm like yo i don't even know what these fucking
things are anymore right so those people when they stick with them, they're making
a clear line in the sand.
Yeah, or they're just like, but it's so
big. We can look past the
Islamophobia and racism because
maybe some people will buy our products.
Well, think about the people who run those companies.
They watch Fox News.
That's where they get their information from.
No, they're saying, these are the values we align
ourselves with. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And we're like, okay, this is one of the riskiest people we can go with.
All right, let's lock it in.
Yeah, exactly.
Just a horrible person.
Yeah, but you know, that says nothing to his mom
because he's not worried about it.
He doesn't even remember his mom.
Right.
Should we just remind everybody that Tucker Carlson's mom left the family, left his dad to go follow her heart, her heart, be a bohemian, live a bohemian lifestyle in Paris.
And he says that has no effect on the fact that he is a anti-woman, anti-liberal.
woman anti-following their heart.
The way he said it is
really like when you have that friend who
clearly needs to go to therapy
or has unresolved issues.
You keep talking
about your mom.
Nah, man, I'm good, bro. I never talked about
my mom. You talked about my mom. I've never even
heard of my mom. Right, exactly.
That's basically what...
He also likes to talk about how much sex he has. Oh, that's right. He's a of my mom. Right, exactly. That's basically what. He also likes to talk about how much sex he has.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah, he's a cool guy.
Who likes to fight gay people.
Yeah, incredibly toxic to women.
But, oh man, if you knew the stories of me back before I got married.
I always, whenever someone talks like this or on the internet, I'm like, oh, wow.
High school was so painful for them.
Yeah.
I mean, he wore a bow tie for the whole first.
Or it was the last time they felt fucking potent.
Right.
Yeah.
It's always one or the other.
All right.
Let's talk about Amy McGrath has stepped into the ring to do God's work and run against Mitch McConnell in Kentucky.
She raised $2.5 million in the first 24 hours of her campaign,
and over $1 million came in the first five and a half hours,
which is the biggest 24-hour haul for any Senate race ever.
Yeah.
Because, yeah, I mean, and that is appropriate to the situation.
Like, it's important to...
To try and get this fucking goon out.
Right.
He, ah, it's, look, this is going to be a fucking very difficult race
because he has a lot of resources he can put into his own race,
and there are a lot of industries and foreign countries that like him
there so you can expect this to be i mean i hope this can be something close i hope that we can get
mitch mcconnell out uh but this is just another argument for why tom steyer instead of spending
your 100 milli on yourself be like okay why don't you go why don't you go 100 million on this dude
yeah just fucking get i mean honestly getting honestly, getting people like Mitch McConnell out...
Would be the biggest...
There is such a knock-on effect from that.
Like, you think of all the fucking legislation he just lets die on that docket,
and the issues he does not want to address because he's in control of the fucking schedule of the Senate.
Like, whoo!
Please!
Amy McGrath is a former fighter pilot and just
total badass yeah and she had like this she was saying she uh when she was like 13 she wrote a
letter to mitch mcconnell being like i want to be a pilot but like uh women can't be pilots like i
hope you can help me and she's like and he never wrote back yeah and guess what she became that
she also has she also has stories of writing letters
And people like wrote back and were like
Well you might want to change your life goals
Basically
I mean
She didn't have a very successful
Campaign in the midterms but look
We gotta fucking try everything
Especially when it comes to getting
Mitch McConnell the fuck come on Tom Steyer
Whoa that's such a cool story
Yeah she's a badass She wrote a to getting Mitch McConnell. Come on, Tom Steyer. Whoa, that's such a cool story.
Yeah, she's a badass.
She wrote a letter to Mitch McConnell, and now she's running against him?
Jeez.
Take him down.
That's crazy.
All right, let's talk about the social media summit.
I don't know.
Are you guys going to be there?
I was thinking about, I don't know.
We should have left last night.
Oh, shit.
That's right. It's happening right now.
We should have left last night.
Oh, shit.
That's right.
It's happening right now.
Well, companies like Facebook and Twitter are not invited to the social media summit.
But the people who are are a who's who of people who created memes that Donald Trump has clicked the like button on, basically.
And other people who just want to self-victimize and be like, they're censoring my antisemitism.
Right.
So they're basically,
they invited all these people who they want to kind of feed the narrative that
Trump is trying to get out there.
The big tech companies are discriminating against conservatives.
So,
you know,
the white house just released a share your story tool to quote
collect anecdotes from people who feel their social media accounts have been banned unfairly
uh because that's what the white house should be focused on um it's just it's the worst people um
ben garrison was on the invite list he's the cartoonist famous for super racist cartoons, basically like Mad Magazine as a Nazi propaganda flyer.
He was called out for his anti-Semitic drawings of George Soros controlling generals with puppet strings.
There was a racist cartoon depicting Michelle Obama as an angry, unattractive monster with a bulge in between her legs.
And AOC, he just seems all fucked up by because he keeps drawing her as real sexy, but using
her sex to sell socialism in some way.
Oh, not the-
It's like, hey, come over here, big boy.
Not the equitable future.
Take this socialism socialism that she's
selling people on uh there was some pushback to his invite so it was eventually withdrawn but
you've got like the your voice america host bill mitchell back to ben garrison though for someone
who has always dealt in these like really anti-semitic tropes in his cartoons i'm glad
like journalists they went up to people like Jared Kushner and like members of Congress,
this other guy,
Jason Greenblatt,
who have been the people like Donald Trump is fighting against anti-Semitism
despite using coded language all the time.
Right.
And like when they asked them for a comment,
they didn't say anything.
And then suddenly they were like,
Ben Garrison is no longer invited.
Right.
So it wasn't until like,
you'd think then even those people would be like, oh, why are
we inviting them?
Right.
But again, you know.
I can excuse the anti-Semitism if we're going to own the lips.
So Your Voice America is a show hosted by Bill Mitchell that promotes QAnon because
he claims it gives hope to Trump supporters.
QAnon is a wild conspiracy theory.
I mean, we've talked about it before on the show,
but it's an insane conspiracy theory,
and the host of that show is coming.
He also once tweeted that melting landmasses of ice
would lower sea levels.
No, really?
Yeah.
James O'Keefe will be there,
the guy who tried to trick the Washington Post
into reporting the fake Roy Moore story.
Oh, and then when he got hidden camera'd?
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
Or no, the woman that he sent got hidden camera'd.
Right.
Or they pulled up with their camera and they're like, look, we know what the fuck is going on.
Don't fuck.
Be chill.
Be cool.
Right.
We know what the fuck is up.
He also once tried to seduce a CNN reporter with fuzzy handcuffs and a condom jar.
Oh my God. Yeah. He, yeah he like he in what world right well he also like got acorn basically taken down like that
the whole you know organization was fucked because he did this like weird thing where he dressed like
a halloween like he got a pimp halloween costume and claimed
to be a pimp and uh basically framed the story so that it made it look like acorn was involved
involved yeah um carpe donktum oh fuck yeah pro trump meme creator cd yeah he's the dude who
like creates all those ones where like CNN is like a pro wrestler.
Like he just puts a CNN logo over a pro wrestler's head and then like Trump's head over another person's.
Hell yeah.
Another pro wrestler and like has them body slam CNN.
Hell yeah.
Yeah.
Hell yeah.
His Patreon has 61 patrons.
Oh shit.
So like you're talking about big time.
Big time Tommy over here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is a, you know, this is supposed to be a who's who of social media.
He has 61 patrons.
It really is just the most garbage fucking trash people, like Charlie Kirk, fucking Prager University.
Right. The people in Prager University, my fucking God, the fucking fake ass revisionist history
bullshit they put on their fucking YouTube videos are like, it's like the manna of debate
freaks on the internet who are like, oh, really?
Because let me tell you about why the Southern strategy, just watch these videos.
Right.
And always trying to re-explain history completely out of sequence even just to help their very lame arguments.
So I'm glad it's just really all people who deal in misinformation, lies, deception, racism, xenophobia, homophobia, and everything else.
So there's a dude who was suspended by Twitter for urging people to buy guns and ammo for the upcoming civil war and recently
tweeted that Kamala Harris is, quote, not an American black, which was shared by Donald
Trump Jr.
Oh, my God.
But yeah, an American black, you know, media experts are saying they think this whole thing
is just about normalizing these radical voices and moving the bar.
Oh, 100 percent acceptable political discourse.
Can you imagine how gassed up these
people are gonna feel when they're sitting at the fucking white house and being fucking told by old
fucking orange turd face that like they're doing the lord's work and i mean these are some of the
people like memes and you know people who were uh supporting Trump for the lulls and like ironically, but not ironically, in 2016 were a significant part of the campaign.
Like it was cool for a certain type of tacit white supremacist to support Trump in the 2016 election because of people like this.
And he probably recognizes that and probably is trying to like get them all focused and give them their
marching orders for 2020 and then there's also the fact that they're trying to intimidate mark
zuckerberg into you know not releasing any potential evidence and meddling in the 2020
election and you know being scared to take down accounts that are you know spewing hate or fuck
that then get rid of facebook then right Right. It's like, fuck you.
Whatever.
We're fucked.
The only people that go on Facebook anymore are middle-aged.
And some younger people.
I'm surprised, like,
I know a few people who are even my age
who are on the book.
I'm not ever on Facebook
and then I get in trouble regularly
or people are like,
I sent you this invite
on Facebook.
And that person is your age?
That you were just doing an impression of?
Because in my mind, that's what your vibe is
if you live on Facebook.
Look, I think it's useful for people
with families because
your older family members and stuff
are on there and it's easy to just disseminate all the pictures and memories and shit like that but like for me
like to socialize i'm like gone are the days when like i was you know 10 years out of high school
and i was like oh i wonder what happened this dude like and that was sort of the fun of facebook like
damn he's married oh she was a firefighter you know like, like that kind of shit. Now I'm like, dude, I don't give a fuck about any of y'all.
Collecting intelligence on a subject.
Yeah.
I'm building a profile on something.
All right.
We're going to take a quick break.
We'll be right back.

And we're back. And briefly, we just wanted to touch on this story that we still don't really have answers on. But on July 2nd, Mike Pence was flying to New Hampshire for a previously planned trip.
Things like a talk on drug use or something.
On official vice president business.
And as he was flying there, his plane was like turned around and brought back to Washington.
And it seemed like there was going to be some emergency announcement,
but nobody ever announced anything.
Even then, his office was like, well, actually, the plane didn't take off.
He was boarding.
And it's like, okay, what the fuck happened?
Why is it canceled?
And it's like, don't worry.
It has nothing to do with national security.
It has nothing to do with the health of the president or the vice president.
And we'll maybe be able to tell you in two weeks.
And then Trump was asked a few days later, and he was like, oh, we'll be able to tell you in two weeks and then trump was asked a few days later and he was like oh we'll be able to tell you in a couple weeks very interesting
thing now a lot of people are like there's speculation that had something to do with the
security at this event that it could have been having to do with people there that they weren't
able to like properly verify there were many uh theories out there one coincidence right about all of this is
that july 2nd is the date that epstein's sealed indictment was filed hmm but i don't know if like
you know if he was if they were really there to be like what would they say like you got to come
back because the president's about to be outed as a pedophile rapist right like i don't know if
that's really the kind of meeting they would have.
Yeah.
Or they're like, yo, do we tell Jeffrey real quick so he can, like, dump some fucking hard drives or whatever the fuck?
Right.
But he was out of the country and he was apprehended on his way back.
Yeah.
I feel like if, I don't know.
If they knew, then Epstein probably would have known.
If they knew and if it really was about protecting Epstein, you'd think they'd be like, don't come back, bro.
Right.
Yeah, yeah, that's true.
Just fucking chill out there.
But I don't know.
I mean, there's so many things happen all the time simultaneously,
so not to get all X-files in here.
Especially during this administration, there's so much news.
It seems so, so crazy and hopeless that the president has been accused of every crime short of murder.
Yeah, pretty much.
Everything else.
And no matter what.
I mean, he's been accused of rape by so many people.
Right.
Detailed accusations from people who are as recently as two weeks ago.
Yes. Yeah, I mean, like, it just goes on and on,
and it just seems that no matter what, he's not-
Yeah.
He can't be taken down.
Well, this is the thing, right?
So there was, like, another anecdote that was sort of emerged
out of the New York Times about Epstein and Trump,
about how they were fucking bros.
And, like, a lot of people said, like,
if you didn't know Epstein and Trump at a certain point in the 90s,
you weren't getting into shit or whatever.
I don't know if that's quite true,
because I'm like, what does Trump...
You can't get into the P. Diddy White Party without knowing Trump?
Right.
But they were saying they were a force.
And this business person in Florida told this story.
This is from the New York Times.
Quote, the year was 1992,
and the event was a,
quote, calendar girl competition, something that George Horeny, a Florida-based businessman who ran American Dream Enterprise, had organized at Mr. Trump's request. I arranged to have
some contestants fly in, Mr. Horeny recalled in an interview on Monday. At the very first party,
I said, who's coming tonight? I have 28 girls coming. It was him and Epstein.
Mr. Hureni, who had just partnered with Mr. Trump to host events at his casino, said he was surprised.
I said, Donald, this is supposed to be a party with VIPs. You're telling me it's just you and Epstein?
And he's like, yes.
Then they go on to say that this guy Hureni had to, quote, pretty much ban Jeffrey from all of my events.
Yeah.
Because of his behavior.
Now, if this is in the fucking early 90s and you're banning somebody from all your events,
what kind of depraved shit are you doing that for 1992 standards, you crossed the toxic Rubicon?
Right.
And they're like, whoa, bro.
It's 92.
We're getting away with a lot right now.
But this is the line.
I can only imagine what the fuck he was up to.
But like you're saying, this is sort of the same shit that happens every time someone on the right is credibly accused of being some kind of sexual predator.
It's like, well, you know, he was just in college.
You know, boys will be boys.
He has a bright future. you know he's boys will be boys uh roy moore has like yeah they just they try and obscure the actual severity of it because if they did hold these sexual predators accountable right what
would that mean for the president who has been credibly accused of rape yeah like they just can't
i think it's like a logic puzzle they're like if we do that then we're it's going to be hard to then
be like well what about this stuff right The president was just accused of committing rape.
Yeah.
I just don't understand, like, I mean, along with the rest of the world, how one accusation of rape.
Isn't enough.
For the president of the United States is not like just a massive deal.
And then to have so, so many.
It's crazy. But also, I don't know if you guys probably saw this too but um a lot of people like dissecting the language of how like having sex with
underage women yeah and they're like no we need to stop that language these are children yeah
stop saying having sex with underage women like they're children yeah you're
basically putting it in the words that the predator wants to think of it as yeah and the
media is complicit in like because they're presenting it that way being like oh well it's
underaged women yes rather than if you said you know he's having sex with children yes yeah this
is a thing that is happening all the time. Sex with children.
And for all the QAnon people and for the people on the right to get all up in arms about how much they care about these innocent kids and shit.
Living or not. Enough to bring an assault rifle to a pizza place.
Right, exactly.
And again, I think that shows you because that sort of sympathy or their caring about those people is only activated
when it helps to put them at odds with the left.
Right.
It's not to ever actually because you are objectively concerned with the safety of children.
Yeah.
And I think that's the other reason why nothing happens too is because that would essentially
topple the right.
Right.
If they had to be like, you know what?
No, we can't do this.
I mean, I think some sane people would be like be like well that was the logical move to do but yeah they have to circle their wagons constantly
because their support is dwindling and they have to resort to underhanded gerrymandering
fucking bullshit census citizenship questions and things like that and avoiding talking about
credible accusations of rape to try and maintain the little bit of power they have yeah the left has to feel good about the fact that they uh still uh hold sexual uh predators to account like yeah well
we'll see who let's see what comes out of this epstein shit you know what i mean and then we can
really show people what the you know what time it is i mean there's yeah there's just no version of
reality where the mainstream media like gets a credible accusation about Bill Clinton and is like, well, we're going to ignore that or doubt the accuser.
I have such little hope, though.
I feel like they could have photographs of Donald Trump murdering someone and it'll be like nothing's going to happen.
It's also, yeah, good point that the thing I described is exactly what happened to Monica Lewinsky.
You're like, I don't know.
Seems like we've maybe come a long way.
But we know that guy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I don't think there's anything that credible evidence from Epstein that implicates Trump.
I do. I do think that because there's so much, you know, corroborating evidence around Epstein like that, that would be, I think, pretty difficult to ignore.
Yeah. Well, I mean, the right. Yeah, it would definitely be something you don't want people to campaign against you with.
be something you don't want people to campaign against you with right you know because that's really what you know that would be very bad to try and defend yourself of like why aren't you
holding this sexual predator accountable in your party right but still like why isn't the law like
why isn't he i mean it's crazy like his biggest thing will be like having to campaign against that
you know like he's never he's not held to any of this.
It's bad for his Q rating.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, I think that's what we'll see.
I mean, I think with this trial,
I'm sure more evidence will come out
and then we'll see what other things
can be spun off from there.
Yeah.
There's a couple articles,
one in Hollywood Reporter,
one in Salon,
just talking about how Epstein
was treated in power circles
in Hollywood and New York after his 2008
arrest and conviction of being a pedophile, child sexual predator. He was at the premiere
of Batman vs. Superman, that movie that only came out a couple years ago. He had people over at his
mansion to meet Prince Andrew, like famous people like Katie Couric, George Stephanopoulos.
He had a post-Yom Kippur brunch at his house and hundreds of New York's most elite and powerful brought their children after he was spent time in jail for having sex with children.
Also, Charlie Rose and Woody Allen were at that thing.
Oh.
Interesting.
Just the who's who.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Yeah, there's this publicist who seemed, Peggy Siegel,
who's like a big publicist in the film industry,
who seems to have been, he hired he must have hired her uh to like rehab his image
after his 2008 pedophilia conviction uh and it doesn't seem like it was hard enough for her to
do that like there's some quotes from this salon piece this dude who uh whose experience with he
was going to write a piece about jeffrey
epstein uh because he thought he was very interesting when he was a writer and editor at
vanity fair and then uh jeffrey epstein uh the night before he was gonna marry his wife called
her and was like hey your last night of freedom why don't you come over here and fuck me and he
was like huh maybe i don't like jeffrey epstein and then his like
girlfriend slash like woman recruiter or child recruiter told him she was like uh if you lost
10 pounds i'd fuck you and he was like oh these are strange people uh anyways he talked about how
he went around and got quotes from people and like with the idea that they would be blind items and so there's David Patrick Columbia is the editor of
new of New York Social Diary explained a jail sentence doesn't matter anymore the
only thing that gets you shunned in New York society is poverty and then here's
an Epstein friend for 35 years who visited him in prison and attended the post Yom Kippur
dinner the side I've been reading about is a side I don't know unless I've seen it I don't focus on
it that's the same logic that people use to say that dinosaurs never existed by the way here's a
woman who was at that dinner and several others I am many others that know him describe him as
brilliant his unique mind is what attracts the world's smartest people to his home.
So if you are able to use your friendship with somebody to define yourself
as one of the smartest people in the world, like maybe that's.
Right.
That seems like the magic ingredient that gets media and Hollywood elites to buy in.
Well.
And here's a distinguished scientist,
because he has a lot of interaction with scientists.
Like, he partied with Stephen Hawking.
He brought Stephen Hawking to.
He partied with Stephen Hawking?
Yeah, he brought Stephen Hawking to Little St. Jeffrey,
that little St. John Island that he owned.
And, like, there are pictures of him at, like, a barbecue. Jeffrey, that little St. John Island that he owned. And there are pictures of him
at a barbecue and
yeah. Doing a keg stand?
Right. But here's
a distinguished scientist who's still
alive said, I always judge things
on empirical evidence. He always has
women ages 19 to 23
around him, but I've never seen anything
else. So as a scientist,
my presumption is that whatever the problems were, I would believe
him over other people.
Wow.
That's 19 to 23.
So cool.
Very specific.
Right.
Wouldn't that lead you to believe this 60 year old man?
Likes younger women?
Yeah.
And possibly children?
But I've never seen anything that's
technically illegal so but i wouldn't know because i'm not checking ids this child said they were 19
yeah exactly anyways well it's a huge bummer but it's i mean it's wild that nobody that this is all
just coming out now that well yeah it's been happening since he was arrested for being a child sexual predator.
Yeah, and trafficking and having child pornography,
maybe possibly manufacturing it.
Yeah, this happened since 2008.
And it's also been happening since the beginning of time.
The dawn of time.
And yeah, we're only entering like...
It's only now where we're like,
oh, maybe grandpas shouldn't be allowed to fuck children.
Right.
Yeah.
Epstein is probably the worst example of that.
But it's just shocking in this case because there were the arrest.
The arrest happened in 2008.
There was so much detail out there.
And these people are like, yeah, I guess I should have Googled him before I went to his house.
Should have Googled him.
Yeah.
Anyways, it's all a nightmare.
But hopefully this can become a moment of progress.
Just let this be a trend.
Bring down fucking powerful abusers.
I mean, all of you just put this all out here.
We're no longer in a world where it's like one of the he's apparently offering to name names of anyone who paid for sex with underage women in exchange for getting a jail sentence of no more than five years.
But that would not bring down the powerful.
I'm sure like Bill Clinton didn't pay him to do anything.
I'm sure it was just like a favor for a favor.
Like I'm sure that that's a,
that's very specifically paid for sex with underage women.
Like is very specifically in there so that he wouldn't have to name.
Oh,
a hundred percent.
Instead of just being like,
Oh,
I had a party and invited my 60 plus bros over with all my 15 and under.
Right.
Yeah.
Corralled girls yeah
no money was exchanged
right I'm sure and I mean one of the
really creepy things is that
he and Trump both bought
modeling agencies around the same
time and like
used them in similar ways like
so it's just
I'm like preparing myself for whatever the fuck used them in similar ways. Like, so it's just, I, I,
I,
I'm like,
yeah,
preparing myself for whatever the fuck I,
I,
this,
I feel is,
is going to be the darkest fucking thing ever.
But I mean,
yeah,
hopefully it ends some darkness for people who are being victimized by these fucking monsters.

A tweet I like.
Two were from Dan White at Dan White.
One is just this photo of the most absurd brunch spread on a table. We're talking charcuterie, fruit, fucking pies, cakes, everything.
And it says,
My Comcast technician is coming to my apartment today sometime between noon and 4 p.m.
to diagnose my internet connection issues.
So I made us a fun little party spread in case he's hungry.
It's like the photo is wild.
And then another one is, was trying on some athletic wear at Lululemon and the floor manager
took out her phone and started an Instagram live story to document, quote, hands down
the sloppiest, most boring garbage bag looking stink ass I've ever seen
in the Align yoga pant.
To her 19.1 thousand followers.
Tweet I enjoyed Liz O'Leary tweeted
I genuinely can't figure out what temperature
it is on Big Little Lies.
It's true, man.
It's like so gray. Yeah, sometimes
they like go out and they're like wearing like
coats and shit and it looks like it's like 40 go out and they're like wearing like coats and shit. Right.
And it looks like it's like 40.
And then sometimes they're like, you know, fucking surfing.
