Oh, we can go check out one episode a week, maybe more. Who knows? Yeah. It's Tuesday, January 7th, 2024. We missed January 6th. We did a heart episode yesterday and forgot to mention that it was Jan 6th. Well, we just did our American civic duty to just memory hole January 6th. Yeah, that's right.

Like it's nothing at all, man. That shit didn't happen. It's nothing at all. What? It's fine, and maybe it did, and they didn't do anything about it, and maybe that's causing problems now. Who could say, really, you know,

I don't have a time machine or I can look at these things 50 years in the future. Anyway, January 7th is National Bobblehead Day and National Tempura Day. Okay, so shout out the fried foods from Japan. Shout out the bobbleheads. Although this is not, you'd think this would come out in the midst of baseball season.

Right. I feel like they missed their mark there. Weird. Like, you know when people are gonna be really appreciative of bobbleheads? January 7th. Middle of January. Right after, you know, the day after January 6th, I think that's when we strike. Bobblehead day.

Yeah. Nailed it. Well, my name's Jack O'Brien, aka, you guys, you know it's Wooderice. That one courtesy of McNichols. Am I reading that correctly? Like McMichaels? But McNichols on the Discord. It is Wooderice.

Very predictable. Cause it's anytime Shogun shows up, it just wins. Okay, that's fine You are first full episode of the year thanking them and yet not a single one of them Thank you and they're except speeches and that's fine bullshit. You've been shouting them out inadvertently in your AKs I Years, I texted Anna. So why I said yo, I knew you were always against me, but you could have said my name up there. And that's fine. But anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah. Miles, welcome back. It's great to see you. Great to be back. Thanks for letting me back in.

I heard you guys are recording without me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's right. You guys were against me. And that was yeah, that anyway. You were in the waiting room. We recorded two full episodes with you in the Zoom waiting room. I shaved for that episode and look at my facial hair now. It looks like Timothée Chalamet's eyelash, as Nikki Glazer said. One of my favorite jokes from the Globes. Miles, we're thrilled to be joined in our third seat by one of our favorite guests, a very talented writer, stand-up comedian,

co-host of one of the great film podcasts, the Bechdel cast. They also happen to have a master's degree in film. They also happen to have the most anagrammable name in the English language. What? So if you've been given their name in a jumble of Scrabble tiles, you may know them as Lauren D. Titanic, nine tit Dracula or Latin dancer UTI, but to us they will always be Caitlin Durante. Caitlin Durante.

Yeah. And my dad is, as we were discussing previously, Jimmy Durante. The child that knows her. We were discussing previously Jimmy Durrani. Yeah, the child Something going on with that snow or maybe it was the hat Wow, maybe it was the mass hallucinations of the children who thought he came to life You know what children will like the comedy stylings of Jimmy Durrani for years to come. Oh, man. I think that's the Frosty the Snowman song I would play the most on the kid-friendly Christmas playlist

I was playing in the house. It was like, the Durant-y one? The Durant-y one? I can't really sing. Yeah, but you know you do. But it's charming. Yeah.

Speaking of charming, Caitlin, how are you doing? Oh gosh. I am doing period. I'm doing. You are doing. I'm doing. You're in the act of doing, aren't we all? Yeah, yeah, exactly.

How are you doing? Oh my God. I'm actually still salty that Jack stole the hot sauce from me at the White Elephant party. Oh my gosh. Actually, he stole it. Well, no, Ian stole it from me and then Jack stole it from Ian. Jack stole the hot sauce from me at the white elephant party. Oh my gosh. Actually, he stole it.

Well, no, Ian stole it from me and then Jack stole it from me and then locked the hot one's hot sauce. And I've been meaning to ask you, Jack, since that very contentious moment at our holiday white elephant gift party, how's the hot sauce? Oh man, I just threw that shit out when I got... Way too spicy for me. No way I could have handled that. way too spicy for me. No way.

I was spicy. My, it was like a three on the Scoville scale and Jack power move. Just looking at it, my rep, catch up the spiciest thing. I'll allow in my body. Spicy, spicy. Wait, Durrani, what did you walk away with at the White Elephant? I ended up with a bottle of Jameson, bottle of Jamo. Okay.

Some coffee grounds. Oh, a little Irish whiskey starter pack brought by yours truly. Irish coffee starter pack. by yours truly. Irish coffee starter pack. Yeah. Yeah. Good. Well, there was also a $25 Taco Bell. It's actually 30, wasn't it? Didn't you do 50 years? $30 Taco Bell gift card.

Yeah. I went $5 over the limit because I'm a big spender like that. But there was a- Because you run into the studio. Part of the 1% over here. There was a theme between my presence, which was diarrhea. Things that will make you shit your pants. Diarrhea-inducing gifts.

We love to see it. We love it, don't we, folks? We do. Well, Katelyn, we're thrilled to have you back on the show. 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 the things that we're talking about today. We're talking from now on,

we do it as Jimmy Durante. We're talking Maggot time is nigh, but infighting is already here though. What was that? It's about to be Trump. It's about to be Trump season baby. Oh, Maggot time is nigh. Yes.

Yeah. Unfortunately, the time has come now for us to put on our reality spectacles and breathe it in. No longer can we just go, just give it a couple of weeks, just a few more. The election is certified. We are here just waiting for inauguration. No Lib Jan 6th that we had all been sitting back. No, they tried though. Try as they might or try it not try as they might not.

Nothing happened. Are you kicking in brittles? I don't know. Try as they may or try as not they may not. Yeah, I was first, I was like, oh man, Biden is about to go ham on the executive orders. Wait, wait, do you see how he's not doing anything? Okay. Well then the people, the, the liberal, uh, P order is going to, uh, stage their

own January sale. They're not, they're not doing anything. Okay. Okay. Yeah. So here we are. Come on in. Yeah. So here we are. Come on in.

Yeah. I mean, he did at least, I mean, Trump, or Biden did do the like super troll fest, giving out those presidential citizen medals to like, who got one, I think Liz Cheney and Benny Thompson. I think George Soros. Yeah. They were like, what the fuck? No.

Magic. And Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton. Anyways, we'll talk about the infighting on the right. We'll talk about more bad news for neoliberals, liberal. Justin Trudeau has stepped down. He's going to resign. What does this mean for Canadian politics?

Uh, it's actually impossible to know because I don't know from here. Yeah. From here, the workings of the Canadian government have been deemed too boring to actually perceive. And so we're all adopting a wait and see attitude on this one, but, uh, we will talk about that. I'm trying to think of a joke that it's like, oh, Canadian politics are different than American politics and then likening that to Canadian football.

So it's like, oh, there's only three somethings instead of four because of the number of downs. But I don't know enough about football or politics. Do they only do three downs? I think so. Right. Oh, I don't know. I didn't know. And I'm really not paying enough attention.

I don't know what that means. Yeah. So see the longer and wider field, 12 players on the field. Oh, that's a foul. Woke much. That's a crime in America. Yeah. Oh, it does three.

Wow. Look at three downs, Durrani over here. Three downs, Durrani, only two timeouts a game. And you can, you can score a one point in the CFL. Interesting. That seems efficient to me. Yeah. Score one point in the NFL too.

No, but I'm saying not after like, not as your extra point. There's also the ability of just one point. The single point is called a ro- a rouge. Uh-huh. Which can, I don't look, I'm a look, I'm already checked out. Look, I'm sorry that we exported our form of political cancer to you guys, but I don't know what else to do. Sorry.

For one point, did the, the beaters catch the quiffle or whatever the fuck is calling them? The Harry Potter. Oh, this is a Harry Potter. That's quite a Harry Potter quidditch joke. Do the the beaters catch the quiffle or whatever the fuck? Quidditch joke I forget there. No the snitch the golden snitch the seeker tried to catch the snitch the beaters Are the beaters just hitting the blooders around right? Yeah. Yeah, wait, there's meters and bludgers. Yeah Wait, there's beaters and bludgers? Yeah. Yeah, there's these balls. I think they're called the bludgers. Beaters people, beaters people is the famous saying.

Exactly. Hit people, hit people. Thank you for the therapy speak. Yeah, man. We're going to talk about, we're going to check in with what was predicted about the year 2025, because this is a future sci-fi dateline that a bunch of forgotten shitty movies set their movie in. Then also Her, the movie Her was set in 2025,

which blew my mind a little bit. Yeah. We'll talk about that plenty more. But first, Caitlin, we do like to ask our guest, what is something from your search history? I Googled Titanic Escape Room Los Angeles. And? And there is one.

What? It just opened. Well, I was Googling it because I had to look up the number to call them. I already knew that it was a recently opened thing. So 60 Out is the company that has different, I mean, one of many companies in LA that has escape rooms. They're the ones that have the Titanic one. There was a defunct one for a while,

but then they just reopened this Titanic-themed one. And I had to make a reservation, Obviously, me and Jamie are going. Yay! We're also pretty morbid, the Titanic. Because you have to escape. The idea is you're escaping the sinking ship. Yeah, this is the description. What if you get in there and just continually lie down in bed and hold hands?

Oh, wow! They're like, guys! What's that little bedtime story? Just continually lie down in bed and hold hands like that What's that what's that little bedtime story the woman tells her kids That shit broke me to put them kids to bed I'm like lady they're gonna wake up the second that cold water hits them That's all I could think about is like dang gonna be asleep. Yeah, wake up to a horrible death. This is what it says step aboard the legendary RMS Titanic and journey back to the fateful night of April 14 1912. That's two days after my grandmother's birthday in this thrilling escape room. Right,

but she passed away but she was born in on April 12 1912. The ship is sinking and it's up to you to save the passengers navigate through the ship's grand corridors, solve intricate puzzles and uncover hidden secrets as you race to unlock the lifeboats. Wow, will you rise to the challenge and save everyone on board? Or will time run out before you can escape the icy waters? Book now and experience the heart pounding adventures of the Titanic like never before. Okay. Or will you fail and let all those women and children die? Or will you fail and let all those women and children die? It's up to you. Oh this whole this actually looks really well-made. I must say

Are we what are we going off of are they like here? I generated. It's not the land Could you imagine yeah, the Caitlin and Jamie good is such a bummer. They're like, yo, it did not look like the pictures at all well, is that thing where it was like the display of, was it like a Willy Wonka thing? Yes. It was horribly rendered. In Glasgow. Yep. Yeah. It was our runner up story of the year.

Oh, right. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Hopefully it's not like that. Of course. Oh, right.

Yes. Yes. That debacle. Yeah. I don't think it's not like that. Oh, right. Yes, of course I do. Oh, right. Yes, yes. That debacle. Yeah, I don't think it will be like that. I do if you're put with a group, like two people in a group of other people, which I don't know.

They don't do that in the scape role. They don't do that in this one. No, no. But if they do in this case, I want you both to just lie down and hold hands. It's like you guys figured out. You guys over here, you're the Jack and Rose. In this case, I want you both to just lie down and hold hands. It's like, you guys figured out, you guys over here, you're the Jack and Rose. Yeah. All right.

Kailin, what is something you think is underrated? I think that shoplifting is underrated. I'm specifically talking about shoplifting from like huge corporate, evil corporations, like big box stores. Now, to be clear, I've never done this because I'm too afraid, but I'm mustering up the courage. My big goal for 2025 is to gather the courage to start shoplifting and stealing from evil companies. Big box stores.

Just start small, you know, do a little lip bomb, you know? start shoplifting and stealing from evil companies. Big box stores. Just start small, you know, do a little lip bomb, you know? That's always the thieves gateway item when you start off. I felt like in my junior high, like there are some high school, I knew some girls that go to Claire's, stock up on some shit. You know what I mean? Come out of there, you know, that's all I know, that's that's all I got to say. That's all I got to say.

OK, thank you for the tips. Then move your way up to spray paint because they put that shit behind a gate at Home Depot, and that's when you really hit the next level. Well, getting Krylon's. Oh my God. Wait, so how do you get back there? Do you like hide a contortion? I don't know. I just remember I tried to do graffiti and I would be

I was the same way. I'm not about to fucking get caught up. I don't even do, I don't even tag. I'm not about to fucking steal cans with you guys. I would just wait in the car and they would run up and be like, yo, we got it. We got like eight cans. We got eight cans. Go, go, go, go, go. I did not get the thrill out of that way. I would always steal from school. That was my thing. That was my original faceless corporation where I'm like, the fuck you gonna do? What do you need this scale for? I need this digital scale for my own nefarious deeds. And then I used to flip those to other drug dealers in high school. Weighing mice and other animals.

No? Did I get it wrong? Oh, we got a winner here. 16 grams. This little mouse is. 16. Yeah, yeah, yeah. School's bad at catching you. Walmart, I think, has traditionally been pretty bad at catching people. Isn't that right? But when they do, holy shit. Oh, that's target. Target.

Target where they're like, Oh, we'd let you rack it up just so you know, like we've been watching you. There's like this one, like there was like a mom influencer that was like doing a supposed target halls that she was just shoplifting and they're like You got we got it all on wax and you're posting it like come on Yeah, no, that seems silly. Yeah, I'm just gonna steal You know groceries. Yeah, cuz they're I mean, I don't know if you've heard but grocery prices have gotten so Expansive. Thanks Joe Byron.

For my little thrill, I take a penny from a, leave a penny, take a penny, even if I don't need it. Is that the buildup? Maybe that's, let's start small, Durrani. Go to 7-Eleven, take a penny from the take a penny, leave a penny, and just whistle on out of there like you don't know nothing about it. Then maybe let's try with- Oh, I do it like a smash and grab it and sprint out.

Scattering grossly. You flip the four hour energy display right next to it. Fuckers! What the fuck was that? The penny guy. He's back. OK, well, yeah, I'll take all these tips in the consideration. Just some ideas.

No bad ideas. Thank you. Also, Zyke Gang, hit her up with some bad ideas. What's something you think is overrated? All right. I'm saying this because it came up on an episode of the Bechtel cast that's about to come out, and I think it's potentially controversial, but I think that tongue kissing is overrated. I don't really want someone else's tongue in my mouth.

I don't want to put my tongue in your mouth, especially excessively. I will do it a little hint of tongue every now and then. But I think tongue kissing is gross. I don't... Did this, was this inspired from seeing gratuitous tongue kissing on screen? And then you're like, yeah, you know what? Nah.

So the episode was on Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging, a British movie based on a British book, like a YA novel. And there's a scene where the main character goes to this boy for kissing lessons. And then they're like, just grossly tongue kissing each other. And then so I was like, ooh, tongue kissing is gross. And then everyone was like, Caitlin, that's so weird. Wow. Really?

Yeah. Threw you off the bus? They really did. Yeah. Fuck. So if anyone else out there thinks that tongue kissing is gross, um, hit me up. And I was so nervous when I was in like, I think I was in seventh grade and I hadn't done a, done a kiss yet.

I hadn't done it. So nervous. I was like, Oh my God, they're going to know I'm bad at French. They're like, they go to like, what the God, they're going to know I'm bad at French. They're like, they go, what the fuck, Jack? Some kind of kiss virgin asshole. I had a older girlfriend. Uh, and she, she was an influencer. And I was very nervous about, you know, nervous about Frenching and I didn't really know it.

And she had Frenched before a number of times. Frenched a number of times. We Frenched. This is the story, Miles, I think I told you before, where I was so nervous and I didn't have an excuse for why I was nervous. So I just created drama. I was like, I just got a lot of stuff going on at home. I couldn't come up with a reason why I was so weird. Then we Frenched. I was bad at it and she dumped me the next day.

Oh man. That's wild. You know what? Sorry, just real quick. Yeah. Moral of the story though was it was my weird vibes that made her die. She was like- Oh, not your bad kissing. It's just not fun.

She's like, I think you're kind of flippant about domestic issues at your own home. And I think the way you just lied about that really put a bad taste in my mouth. Yeah, exactly. And the pun was intended. Right, Lisa. Yeah. I kissed a freshman in high school when I the pun was intended. Rightly so. Yeah. I kissed a freshman in high school when I was in seventh grade for my first kiss. Whoa. And I was fucking so nervous because my neighbor who was a grade older than me,

had a girlfriend who was a grade older than her or him. So she brought her friend over and here I am, this little seventh grader. And Mace's Harlem world album just came out and we're listening to why you over Oh God. And that's P Diddy's voice now that I think about it. And, but anyway, that I was so nervous. I kiss, I didn't know what to do. And this woman was so kind.

She's like, she's like, she's like, have you ever done this before? And I was like, no, no, no you ever done this before? And I was like, No. No. Started crying. I was basically like you but I even have the I couldn't even be articulate enough to make some shit up. She's like, bro, are you okay? You're like, you're you've got like, completely your size way. I just love this Mace album.

Yeah. Thinking about this Mace album. Yeah. Really thinking about this Mace album. Yeah, but I wasn't. Yeah. But the gratuitous stuff, I remember doing that and I've had like girlfriends be like, yo, yo, yo, I'm not with that. And I was like, yeah, you're right. I think I'm copying the movies.

Well, that's the thing. Like when you're young and you don't know what you're doing yet, you're bad at kissing and you're probably using too much tongue and stuff like that. But I'm talking about like adult men well into their 30s who still don't know how to kiss and they're using way too much tongue. That's disgusting. They'll come in tongue first. Tongue first.

I literally had a guy try to kiss me coming in tongue first. Like that? Like telegraph? Like, eh. Yeah. I've even tried to like get the physics right in my head. What does it look like? He didn't even use his lips really at all.

He was just sort of like, blah, blah, blah. Oh, fuck, yeah, yeah. But then obviously like that's an extreme example, but like just so many people, and look, I've kissed a lot of people, okay? I know. And yeah, a huge brag, but so many people, so many adult men, especially, I would say are very bad at kissing. And then I have to tell them and I have to teach them

how to kiss. And then I'm like, follow my lead. And then it emasculates them. And then they're like, yeah, I actually don't want to meet for another date actually. And then they're like, yeah, I actually don't want to meet for another date, actually. Had nothing to do with the emasculation of you saying my pornography informed way of kissing wasn't really palatable for everyone. It was my weird vibe. So like me, Caitlin was giving off the weird vibes and that's why they dumped my. You got kissing is like dancing. If people are there to, you know, to tango, you can't go in there crumping.

You know what I mean? Just match energies. I never like when I can see tongue happening in a movie kiss. It's gross. I still remember the November rain video. Never forget the November rain video. When Axl Rose gets married and then at the altar, they kiss and it's just like a real, real tongue bath. Hold on, now I gotta pull this up.

You're saying it's when they get married? Yeah, you just see him go full tongue in the mouth as the wedding kiss, which felt weird to me. Oh, here it is. Wait, they got mouth on mouth. Where's the tongue? Did we miss the tongue, Jack? You must have missed the tongue because Slash is about to go do the- Oh, that? Just right there. Yeah, but it's subtle because it's just through the corner, but it's full. Oh, yeah, dude. You see it?

Yeah, you see the tongue go like the tongues. Yeah. And I'm betting I'm going to bet money that the actress was not informed about that before. It was his real wife, Stephanie Seymour. I love how this became pop-up video. You're like, despite that grotesque, gratuitous kiss, that is his real wife. Right.

I did not like it though. Thank you for this, Caitlin. I think you spoke what has been unspoken for a lot of people. Dismatch. If you got them, if you want to get sloppy, I'll get sloppy. You know what I mean? Is that the message that you got? No, no, that's not what I was saying.

Don't force your and now it's time for miles. If you want to get sloppy, stay away from me. And now it's time for Miles Flink outward. In summation. If you want to get sloppy, stay away from me. Put your mouth on someone else. Yeah, I feel you. All right. That was very fun.

We're going to take a quick break and we're going to talk about some news. We'll be right back. Hey, y'all, I'm Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, host of Therapy for Black Girls, and I'm thrilled to invite you to our January Jumpstart series for the third year running. All January, I'll be joined by inspiring guests who will help you kickstart your personal growth with actionable ideas and real conversations. We're talking about topics like building community and creating an inner and outer glow. I always tell people that when you buy a handbag, it doesn't cover a childhood

scar, you know, when you buy a jacket, it doesn't reaffirm what you love about the hair you were told not to love. So when I think about beauty is so emotional because it starts to go back into the archives of who we were, how we want to see ourselves and who we know ourselves to be and who we can be. So a little bit of past, present and future, all in one idea, soothing something from the past. And it doesn't have to be always an insecurity. It can be something that you love. All to help you start 2025 feeling empowered and ready. Listen to Therapy for Black Girls starting on January 1st on the iHeartRadio app, Apple

Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. 2025 is bound to be a fascinating year. It's going to be filled with money challenges and opportunities. I'm Joel. Ooh, and I am Matt.

His stunt man reveals the answer. And you never know who's gonna drop by. Mr. Brian Cranston is with us today. How are you two?

Hello, my friend. Wayne Knight about Jurassic Park. Wayne Knight, welcome to Really No Really, sir. Bless you all. Hello, Newman. And you never know when Howie Mandel might just stop by to talk about judging. Really? That's the opening?

Really No Really, yeah. No Really. Go to ReallyNoReally.com. And we're back. We are. And it's so do we need to like cover this now? Huh? Like the, the coming Trump administration. That's going to be the bearing your head in the sand. I mean, sure. You can do that. Um, in which case I probably just stopped listening to this show. If that's what you're looking for.

But yeah, we're kind of, we're there, you know, that the uncomfortable reality is, is that we're not there yet. We're not there yet. We're not there yet. We're not there yet. We're not there yet. We're not there yet. We're not there yet. I mean, sure, you can do that. In which case, I'd probably just stop listening to this show if that's what you're looking for. But yeah, we're there. The uncomfortable reality is creeping much closer. And what we're two weeks away from the inauguration, policies are becoming more and more of a reality. Yesterday, obviously, we saw the certification

of the election go down. Where Kamala said, look, I'm simply upholding a sacred obligation by doing this. And we did it because it's a democracy, allegedly. And there were a group of activists that were trying to get members of Congress to use the 14th Amendment to deny certification. But that simply wasn't happening, even though they're like, this guy's an insurrectionist. There's no way you can, you know, run for office. Didn't you guys impeach him on those grounds?

And also wasn't there a whole whatever maybe it was just a maybe it didn't matter. Yes, that's okay. Everyone's kind of scratching their heads as to now looking at this issue. And everyone's like, could the DOJ have done more? Yeah, probably, I would say absolutely. But either way, we are here. But the one problem at the moment is to figure out how to unite all of these ghouls to actually get anything passed. So right now, that's my biggest problem. That's my, that's what's keeping me up at night miles is how are they going to

ever get it together? These, these guys get it together. You, you, you came so far, uh, from merely being a Facebook troll to now being a member of Congress. Don't fumble this chance. But yeah, like right now Trump is demanding a big beautiful MAGA bill, basically like one bill that covers everything from draconian immigration crackdowns, extending the Trump tax cuts for only the wealthy, and putting an end to clean energy projects in favor of more earth fucking.

He wants it all in one bill just done right away. He wants it on his desk yesterday, even though he's not in office yet. Mike Johnson is hoping that he can maybe deliver this by Memorial Day and then Trump can just end the rest of his term by playing golf and slipping further into senility in peace as he wants it. But the issue here is that, you know, despite having control of

Congress, the House is in a pretty precarious situation with their two seat advantage. So yes, that's not like a two seat advantage in the Senate. How many seats are there? Like there's like 435. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. So very narrow. Yeah, it's, it's very narrow. And again, this, we saw this problem come up when they were trying to, you know, elect the speaker, Mike Johnson. It was just like, it, it wasn't Kevin McCarthy levels of bad, but it did take

Trump to personally intervene to get some of the freedom caucus hardliners to like back, uh, cyber porn porn cop Mike Johnson for speaker. So yeah, like this. Yeah, we don't know what we don't know what is going to I mean, obviously, like, they're they're not dealing with a lot here in terms of getting stuff passed. I mean, in the Senate, they have 53 seats. So there's a there's definitely more of an advantage there. But yeah, like when you talk about that, like when all of these articles about the like

this supposed mega bill, there's already disagreement among Republicans, like some want wanted the way Trump does many other like it should be broken up into a set of smaller bills, and I won't vote for this or like, you have to promise me there'll be no more spending when Trump himself has obviously been like, get rid of the debt ceiling, I want to spend as much as I want, and then blame it on the next guy or whoever. So yeah, the not not much to really make you feel good about what's happening aside from that. But that they're incompetent and hate each other. Incompetent and hate each other that much we are seeing play out for 35 on average, it's going to be one of their birthdays every

day, and at least one of them is going to be sick. So like maybe we'll just, maybe the, the advantage, as long as the Democrats are willing to go to work sick, like heroes, you know? Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. We'll see. We will see because yeah, like once Trump pulls a couple of people for cabinet

positions, that could go down to like a one seat advantage, like in this period with our special elections. He doesn't give a fuck. He keeps like using those people. He's like, I don't know, you want to like be my driver or whatever. They're like, oh, I would be honored. I would be honored. Come to an escape room with me. But yeah, this is kind of what sort of we have on the horizon in terms of legislation. And yeah, it's chaos already. All right. Well, speaking of chaos, I can't say the word chaos without you thinking of, that's right, Canada, that place.

Wild. But Justin Trudeau has been facing calls to resign even for members of his own party for weeks now. His finance minister who was his right hand, very close and somebody who was widely respected, quit in mid-December and on the way out was like, I don't know what the fuck he's doing. But basically, everyone was like, it was a bad look on top of a

situation where people were like, he's probably going to have to resign eventually. Right. But yeah, she was not pleased with how he managed Canada's economy in the face of the looming U S tariffs. This does all seem to at least start or get accelerated by Donald Trump being like, you don't want to kiss the ring. You were going to beat the shit out of you with tariffs. And I hate all like the little brothering that this fool is doing.

He's like, Oh, the 51st States, we will welcome. It's like, okay, did you shut the fuck up? And he's like, we will welcome many 51st States. And yeah, Canada, I look, we apologize. Well, we love y'all, but, and I'm God, you're, you're terrible. Misfortune to be bordering the best live show of the TTC tour. Maybe there were a number of great shows, but that Toronto show was so fun. Holy shit.

What a crowd. But yeah. So he announced that he is stepping down as the liberal party leader and also as prime minister as soon as his party can find somebody to replace him. So again, no way to know what this means or how any of this works because my brain can't stay. Well, it's also just it's very look, it echoes like a lot of the other things we saw were neoliberalism. Just yeah, just played itself out to the end. A bit of a moan.

Yeah. Yeah. Because, you know, they had the backing of like the New Democratic Party. But again, they were like this. We had a deal in place and Trudeau couldn't follow through and we're asking for real easy stuff, like dental care. Yeah. So this was the detail from the story that I did. I did read, I made it all the way through the story. And one of the conflicts was with the New Democratic Party, which is like their, like left-leaning, further left. Like if America had a left. Had something like that, sure. Yeah, yeah. And Jagmeet Singh, who is the leader of the New Democratic Party, who we've covered

before because he was a dude who was like entering a building and somebody was like, like entering a building and somebody was like, you're bum, liar. And he just had had a, and was like, who said that? And the guy was so, he's like, I, dude, I wouldn't say that. And if I did, I would say it to your face, but I totally didn't. It must've been somebody behind me. Like the guy on camera, like calls him a liar and then immediately completely backs down. But yeah, anyway, he, the thing that they were arguing over was dental care and pharma care bills. Which is like, I don't know why that is

so wild to me that like, leaders would be disagreeing over something that's like real and tangible. Yeah, because we live in hell over here. We're like, whoa, that's a thing you can like advocate for as a politician. Dead care. I remember talking to like some of the zeitgang after that Toronto show and talking about like the socialized medicine, things like that. And they're like, yeah. And they kept saying, yeah, but the thing here, no dental, no mental is like the sort of like the rhyme that they use.

Like we don't get dental care, no mental health care. And that's like a huge thing too that people want to advocate for. So it's interesting to see like that's a very simple thing that people are like that's a necessity for their health. You make a deal with the Liberal Party. It doesn't happen. And then he said, quote, they have let you down in terms of talking about the Liberal Party, they do not deserve another chance. Be like, wow, that that sounds like stuff we've said down here about our Liberal Party.

Maybe maybe the US and Canada aren't so different after all. Nah, they're boring. We're cool. We keep it exciting. Remember January 6th? Although they're comedians, comedians definitely better. I think they got some real good comedians out there. They got the real good comedians out there.

But yeah, this is just kind of like another, I think, moment where you're seeing, again, rather than acting so confused when people are asking for basic necessities for their lives to be easy to like exist within, don't act like this is like, ah, they don't, that's fine. They don't, this isn't going to affect anything. Like it very much is. We invested in a private company that could provide solutions for dental care. What else do you want?

Just make it easier, man. Just make it easier. Yeah. So the echoes of our similar grievances. Yes, things be going around. I'm sorry, Jack, but how are you going to stop this? Like what's going on? It's actually impossible to. It's either fascism or failed neoliberal policies. Those are actually the only two options that I've ever heard of. And that my brain can conceive of. So I think that's it.

I think. Yeah. We've exhausted every option. I don't know what else to do here, folks. I mean, I guess I could start building a bunker to hide from the proletariat. Yeah. It's a zombie movie. It's either zombie movie or neoliberalism.

That's the only thing Those are the only two ideas we come up with yet Holy shit every time I don't know. This is what you this what you get guys. It's what it is. You happy now What? Yeah, no We've been very unhappy for a long time. We've made that clear. All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. Hey y'all, I'm Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, host of Therapy for Black Girls, and I'm thrilled to invite you to our January Jumpstart series for the third year running. All January, I'll be joined by inspiring guests who'll help you kickstart your personal growth with actionable ideas and real conversations. We're talking about topics like building community

and creating an inner and outer glow. I always tell people that when you buy a handbag, it doesn't cover a childhood scar. You know, when you buy a jacket, it doesn't reaffirm what you love about the hair you were told not to love. So when I think a jacket, it doesn't reaffirm what you love about the hair you were told not to love. So when I think about beauty is so emotional because it starts to go back into the archives of who we were, how we want to see ourselves and who we know ourselves to be and who we

can be. So a little bit of past, present and future, all in one idea, soothing something from the past. And it doesn't have to be always an insecurity. It can be something that you love. All to help you start 2025 feeling empowered and ready. Listen to Therapy for Black Girls starting on January 1st on the iHeartRadio app,

and you can find it on the iHeartRadio app, on Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. And we're back. We're back. We're back. God damn. All right. So it is the year 2025.

According to you. And according to some people, it's the year 2025. Yeah, right. But okay year 2025. Yeah. Right. But okay. 2025. That is like a conspiracy. It's like the sort of fact that my brain has a equally hard time getting itself around that. That like, I could, I could see a conspiracy theory arising.

Like it's not actually 20. You believe that shit? That it's 2025? That sounds like some shit that Dems would do. It's like, it's not actually 20. You believe that shit that it's actually 20. That sounds like some shit that Dems would do. It's like, it's actually 2020. Yeah. So actually Joe Biden is another go round. I think is what we get here.

I, this is actually the first time, like, you know, when you like, uh, are signing something and you have to date it and you're like, ah, shit, I wrote 2024. Like there's like those first month or so. This is like one of the first times I'm like, no, this shit is 20. I don't know why. This is a lie. I'm like, this shit is 2025. No lie. I feel it. I've been writing so many checks. Yeah. I open up my diary and I say January 7th, 2025.

Yeah. I do write one set of checks to Target. and I say January 7th, 2025. Yeah. I do rate one cent checks to Target to pay back my give a penny, take a penny. And they cashed it, those cheap motherfuckers. But yeah, this is an interesting time because I feel like as a kid growing up in the 80s, the 2020s were sort of like the just not so far off future that writers loved to depict in films. And I'm always like, man,

because what was hoverboards in Back to the Future? We're past, we should have had them. I think we're past hoverboards. Yeah, we are past in Back to the Future. Yeah, and that was 2015 in Back to the Future too. Oh my God, science. Flying cars are everywhere. Hoverboards everywhere.

A little piece, like little morsels of food that you put in a special oven and it's like a little tiny pizza and that it becomes a huge pizza. Like where's any of that technology? Yep. All we got is. Exploding pizza. Soylent. Yeah.

When you Google back to the future part two year, I don't want to know the year the movie came out, asshole. Come on. Who the fuck cares about that? Google? Everyone knows it. 1989. Yeah.

Yeah, 2015. Caitlin's correct. I just had to fact check that for some reason. Wow, you don't believe? I could not believe that is that long ago. Sorry, he just got a note. He got a note about his excessive tongue kissing earlier. He's trying to slash out at everyone.

So, all right, let's go through a handful of movies that were set in the year 2025. We have the 1986 sci-fi movie, Future Hunters, which first of all, we're here in 2025 and it's not the future. So you got that one wrong. Dip shit. Whoa, what a dude. This cast is it's got Robert Patrick, the guy who plays the T 2000 in turn.

Yeah. Two, the liquid one. I don't know who any of these, what is it? Is he a 1000 or is he the one? L and then Arnold is a t100. Is that the deal? Yeah He's like a one 101. I've messed up all my cybernetic cybernetic organisms. I'm sorry Yeah, okay. It has a 4.3 on IMDB. Oh god 2025 a D on adventure searches thenuclear wasteland for the most devastating godless artifact in history.

When he touches it, he is transported back in time to 1989 Los Angeles. Oh, so it is like future tech in modern day. I guess. But the future, the year 2025 of that world is Mad Max. It's just they just took Mad Max. And then it appears to be a guns verse blades type of a showdown based on the poster. And the guy who has the gun has a weird comb over.

I don't know why they've gone with him. That's the face of this movie. Yeah. Great work. It's also shooting a laser and a bullet at the same time on the cover. Assuming that's a laser, like laser aim. Oh yes. I feel. But then it's also a laser that shoots like out of like, yeah, it also does.

It also does pew pew also. Yeah. So don't get too comfortable with this thing. Also, sorry. I'm humiliated it Arnold is a t 800 oh my god you idiot. Are you doing? Then what is Robert Patrick? He's t 1000. He is the t 1000 He is the t 1000 and I'm Myles Dyson They really made some pretty impressive upgrades between 800 and 1000.

I mean, Jesus. What happened to the forgotten 900? Oh, yeah. Just like, hey, I'm here, guys. It's like the missing link, you know? And where's the movie about that? It's like the, what's the Sega, the Dreamcast? It's like the ones that were between between the main, like Sega Genesis.

And then, you know, and well, it was Sega Genesis, Saturn, then dream, Saturn, dream cast. Yeah. Saturn. It was the Saturn was the Saturn of times. It was the dream cast of times. I know. Let's I read books.

I actually just know. I just listened to people who read books. And then I watched the Simpsons. So I get that by osmosis. There you go. There was also the escape from New York ripoff end game Bronx final wars. I guess they had AI working back a long time ago because this is the most AIS title end game, Bronx final wars.

What? In the wake of a nuclear war, New York city is now full of quote scavengers, rogue motorcycle gangs, and mutant psychics. The worst type of psychics of all. What was, okay. So right. All the nuclear fear shit was just because of the Cold War stuff lingering, right? And we brought that to all of our movies.

Because we all had a fucking gun to our head for like three decades. Yeah, everyone's like, dude, we could fucking do this right now, dude. Yeah. We could do this shit right now. We all go. I don't give a fuck. So that gave us this man who looks like, what is this outfit this guy's wearing? The poster, it's like a again, your helmet.

Yeah. Yeah. But it's just off enough to your point, Jack, that it does look like AI in this weird way. Yeah, I'm like, it looks like Mad Max mixed with like Aquaman. Yeah, that's what Aquaman mixed with BDSM. Yeah. Which I guess is Mad Max. But yeah, these. Yeah, it's got real Aquaman energy.

Yeah, yeah. No one made a movie yet. No one made a movie yet. All right. Well, back to a little bit closer to now, Pacific Rim really called its shot. They set that movie in the year 2025. I don't know why any movie does this. There's so many movies that just like completely overshoot

and are like, yeah, giant robots that fight the Kaiju monster. That'll be seven years hence. 10 years? What do you think? 10 years for them? I give it 10 years. Right, because Pacific Rim came out when? 2013. Wow.

So they're like, that's 12 years max. Oh, they got time. This is plenty of time. Have you seen the kind of stuff Tesla's doing right now? Yeah. We're going to have megabots. 12 years. Yeah.

I'm actually pissed about that. Yeah. And then her, which was at the time pretty subtle. I remember that being the main thing. It was like, what if we did a sci-fi movie that seemed like an accurate depiction of how things might evolve? This is scary how spot on it is in many ways. In many ways, But, yeah.

And yet the AI. Yeah, the movie Her is basically if Joaquin Phoenix fell in love with his Siri, right? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. That has Chad GPT. It was like a fully formed human personality. Like it identifies a thing that, like, people were like,

yeah, I'm willing to believe that's what's going to happen. And then a bunch of people made billions and billions of dollars being like, look, they'll believe anything. We could just pretend we did that. Fuck it. We'll just have Scarlett Johansson's voice do the voice of our thing. And these people will believe it. This makes me think Elon Musk may introduce a mega fighting robots. Just in the same way.

It's like, pretty close folks. We're getting them, getting them close. Just invest now. I'm telling you, we got to fight the Kaiju AKA immigrants. I didn't remember there being a date in her. So I was like trying to find the evidence that it was set in 2025. And I think it's like mainly a estimate because they're one of the Joaquin Phoenix's character like writes greeting cards. And one of the greeting cards he writes is for like a happy 50th anniversary where

it looks like the wedding was in the 70s. And I think that's like kind of the main piece of evidence that there's also like the IMDB plot synopsis is says like opens with in the year 2025. But I am in the script. Let me see if I can find the screenplay. See, this is what this is why we have people with a certain level of expertise on because we will not we can now masters. I like the very first line. It is 2025. Okay.

Here's the thing. Only people with master's degrees in screenwriting can do a Google search to see if the PDF of a certain screenplay is available on Google. So how do you do that? I can't re- look. You have to go to grad school if you want to find out a secret. Like I wouldn't even know the fucking first step on Googling where to get a screenplay PDF version. Yeah, it's really hard to do. Only I can do it. This is eye-opening. Mm-hmm. And? I'm struggling with it.

No, I actually have fun with the screenplay. I'm just seeing if it mentioned. Let me do a little search. 2025 does not appear once in the screenplay. So... God damn it. Damn. You fucked me IMDB.

No, but I think people generally agree, even if it's just a range, this is the range that it is. Well, based on the greeting card, I think that's safe to say 50 years from the seven, what looks like the seventies would put us here, you know? And IMDB certainly is saying it with authority. It's the year 2025. But anyways, I mean, the, the looks at the time, I remember being like, these people look ridiculous.

Like the men with the high-waisted pants and everybody has mustache. And now I live here. Look at you. Yeah. Now look at you. Yeah, full mustache and pants up to your nipples. Oh, man.

I'm still dressing like it's the 90s. Very low-waisted jeans. Very low-waisted. Very low-waisted. Some would say, well, authorities would say criminally low-waisted. I was actually going to ask why you're wearing Jinkos, Jack. Real low though. It's kind of like a sexy raver.

Yeah. I mean, for you, oh, sorry, Kailin, with your, with your, you know, master's degree perspective on things like this, is this something that you would shy away from? Is this the time for the artist to put something down and say, look, I do have a vision for the future and it may come true, like, you know, like things like Idiocracy did in a very ironic way. I mean, look, if you're going to take some wild swings and be like, yeah, we're, we have flying cars or we have, we can teleport or,

you know, whatever, set it in like two to 300 years in the future. But that's also sci-fi because we, the Earth as we know it, I think will be dead and the human race will be wiped out by the year 2300-ish. That is always your first note on someone's screenplay. Yeah, I'll be like, incorrect. This is about a woman's relationship with a murder of crows.

Well, first note is this won't exist in about 300 years. What are we doing? People can do whatever they want in their screenplays. I disagree. I think we should shun these people for taking such big swings because again, movies do inform my idea of what the future is and I have no hoverboard. I have no mag laced shoes. I can't find it.

Oh my gosh. Self-drawn jackets. We don't have those. Yeah, exactly. We don't have any of this crap. So yeah, I'm a little heartbroken about that. I'm going to be honest. Yeah. Yeah. Fucking her. Do you? All right. Do you guys have? Sorry. Yeah. Fucking her. Fucking her. Her? guys have, sorry. Yeah, fucking her. Fucking her. Her? That's a quote from Arrested Development.

Oh, right. All right, well, Kaitlin, what a pleasure having you on the Daily Zyke Ice Tuzzle. Yes. Where can people find you, follow you, get notes on their screenplay from you, all that good stuff. Oh my gosh, You can do that.

You can go to my website, CaitlinDurante.com, and contact me if you have a screenplay and you want notes on it, or if you want to take my screenwriting classes. That's what I was going to say. In addition to that, you can listen to the Bechdel cast, and we have some upcoming live shows. Oh, shit. Wowie Wow. to the Bechdel cast and we have some upcoming live shows. Oh shit.

Wowie wow. One's in Los Angeles where you could also go to a Titanic escape room if you wanted to. Don't tell them about the Titanic escape room. They're not gonna like it. You should like auction, you should auction that off. Auction that off for charity. I bet people would pay you so much money

to do a fucking escape, a Titanic escape room with y'all. Oh, that's so true. I'm just saying. When your chance to, oh, wow, you're a genius. To escape the Titanic and do something good for humanity. We don't have, people don't want to be in an escape room with me. So I just, I have ideas for when. That's so true.

We'll see. I mean, nobody showed up to my birthday. Well, okay. Here's the thing. All right. So LA, okay, go on. The LA show, January 19th at Dynasty Typewriter. It's a little 4 p.m. matinee. Okay. And it's also being live streamed. So if you don't live in LA, you can buy a ticket.

Watch the, I know, first of all, why would you do that? What are you doing? But if you don't and you don't want to pay a bazillion dollars for rent, I get it. But you can buy a ticket to see the live stream of the show and even if you can't watch it as it's being live streamed in that very moment, the feed, the stream, the video will be available for a week afterward. So that's that show. Then Jamie and I are doing our famed Shrektanic shows.

Yeah. Uh, one is the Titanic show in San Francisco as a part of SketchFest on January 23rd. For that show, I have promised that if it sells out, I will get naked on stage so that Jamie can draw me like one of her French girls. Wow. But I want to see my titties. Please buy ticket to that show. All nine of them. That's right. All nine of them.

I am nine tit Dracula. So in a way, I should have been cast as Nosferatu. In a way, yes. It's really fucked up that I wasn't. I've got nine titties, nine nipples. Watch the Titanic with its namesake, Lawrence and Titanic. Yeah. Precisely. Please come to that show in San Francisco. Then our third and final show of this mini tour is in Portland on January 26th. That is

also part of the Shrek Tanik tour, but that is a Shrek show that's also being live streamed. Yeah. Wow. All those tickets are available. What venue in Portland? Curious Comedy Theater. Okay. One of our faves. We always play there when we go to Portland.

But yeah, so that's a live show plus live stream on January 26. Same deal with get the live stream ticket. You can watch it for up to a week afterward. I will not be getting naked at that show. The only show you can see me naked at potentially is the San Francisco One. That's the huge selling point of this whole tour. Me naked. Not the comedy and the wonderful thoughts that Jamie and I will express. Well, that's smart because in a city like Portland where there's such a concentration of adult entertainment clubs, you're not going to compete. They're jaded up there. Yeah, they're like, titties, I saw them already today. So it's really just San Francisco, which is famously a very conservative city. No nude people. No nude.

I've never seen nudity on the streets of San Francisco in my life. Buttoned up. But anyway, you can get tickets to all those shows at Linktree slash Bechtelcast. And those are all my plugs. Amazing. Is there a work of media that you've been enjoying? Oh, my gosh. I guess.

I mean, I've been rewatching the show Stath Let's Flats, which is a very British show starring Jamie Dimetrio. And it's very fun. And I like it. And I just started watching Dairy Girls. Shows from across the pond. Yeah, that's a great one.

Nice. Miles, where can people find you as their work of media you've been enjoying? Yeah, find me at milesofgray, wherever they have at symbols. Find Jack and I on the basketball podcast, Miles and Jack got mad boosties. Also find me talking 90- fiance on four 20 day fiance. No work of social media or media.

I, what did I watch? That was kind of fucking weird over the break. Oh dude, I was so, I was again, this is obviously the time has passed for holiday stuff, but I got into watching seventies, like, like the Dean Martin Sinatra holiday specials, that just them being drunk for most of the time and singing songs and stuff. Those specials are fucking wild to watch from this like perspective.

And you're like, is he hitting on Dean is Frank Sinatra hitting on Dean Martin's daughter in front of Dean Martin and Dean Martin's like, all right, Frank, like what the fuck is going on here? Yeah. Yeah. So I watched that to see some old timey bad media. And that's all I can really recommend right now.

Where do you find that? YouTube. Yeah. There we go. All right. I was enjoying. Did you all see Jeremy Strong's outfit? Oh, yes. All right, I was enjoying Did y'all see Jeremy Strong's outfit? Oh

Globes. Yes. Oh My god Durante. Hold on. I'm gonna put this shit is it I was so fucking upset when I saw this outfit because I thought he was doing a fucking bit He had an all velour Paddington outfit with it with The whole thing and he put the sunglasses on like a dick he what is he he really is on some hat Yeah some Kendall Roy shit

Which is where we link off to the information we talked about in today's episode. So, what is the song that we think you might enjoy? Miles, is there a song that you think people might enjoy? Yeah, after just the talk of Nosferatu, I got spooky in my mind and I decided let's just go out on a spooky sort of like experimental hip hop track from a duo from North London called Ivy Lab. The track is called Low Risk Offer. It is very like, it's experimental. Y'all, so some of y'all might hear this and like do say what my mom used to say when she'd hear me listening to electronic music and she goes, are you listening to noise again? But this

is kind of noisy, experimental hip hop. I don't know. It's spooky. It feels like you could probably be in one of those Eggers movies probably coming up. So anyway, Ivy Lab with Low Risk Offer. of those Eggers movies probably coming up. So anyway, Ivy Lab with low risk offer. All right. Well, we will link off to that in the footnotes.
