Starting point is 00:02:42 Hello the internet and welcome to this episode of name, image and zeitness in reference to NIZ. Yeah the NIZ. Yeah. The NIL it's uh it's totally corrupted college football in a way that I personally cannot. One of the purest forms of competition. Absolutely. Is this this I know Johnny Johnny Davis with that short show title I shot a headline any Davis that was like the guy he said he was referencing UNL I saw something where he's like things that were represented to me were not something. I don't know Yeah, it's hard to say what exactly happened. It's still a developing story, but basically UNLV's quarterback
Starting point is 00:03:26 redshirted himself claiming like he didn't get the money that was promised. That was promised to me. Where's my fucking bag? And then UNLV says it's actually another school offering him way more money next year if he redshirt this year. So because he only has one year of eligibility left. So people, you know, having to make business decisions out here. Yep.
Starting point is 00:03:51 Um, but yeah, I don't know, because I guess Johnny's saying just make them employees already. This is so dumb. I don't know what, what the legalities involved are, but yeah, it feels like this is still. For the amount of money flying around, yeah, you can maybe sort that part out, but anyway. Yeah, we're still in the wild west of openly paying
Starting point is 00:04:16 college athletes as opposed to secretly paying college athletes. Shout out UNLV, story tradition. Yeah, they're always at the forefront of paying college athletes and we respect that. How y'all fucking this up? I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:04:28 I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie.

I'm was, there's a five before the five, five. This is the year 19 and 90. Yeah. I can, I shout out 34 years ago. All right. So Donald Trump and JD Vance are concerned about the high price of eggs
Starting point is 00:04:59 and they don't seem concerned about what's actually causing it. So we're a mere month out from JD Vance catching everyone's attention for failing at the simple task of acting like a human being inside of a donut shop for 90 seconds. Just created the most appropriate credit scene for an episode of Veep possible and just like better than any episode of Veep credit sequence. He has that power. He has that negative force field of Riz around. Yeah, exactly. So he's gone viral again. This time it's because he staged a PR event in a grocery store where he complained that a dozen eggs will cost you around $4 thanks to Kamala Harris's inflationary policies while literally standing in front of several signs
Starting point is 00:05:54 saying 2.99 per dozen of eggs. And people are not making a big deal about the fact that he said that his kids eat 14 eggs per morning, which maybe my kids are just lesser. They're betas compared to his. They're stringy. You know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:10 14 eggs seems like a lot. That's a lot of cholesterol for a child. Anyways, yeah, it's a little surprising. Like the Trump war room Twitter account didn't even try to like George Lucas that shit with computer technology. They don't care. You can just see the 299. The whole thing is just it's the their whole campaign is a very visible from space contradiction lie. So it's like, why bother? Like, it doesn't matter to it doesn't matter to his supporters. And it and for the people who aren't into Trump or Vance,
Starting point is 00:06:41 they're like, yeah, of course, they're just fucking lying all the time. Sure. But yeah, it's just, it is wow though too, where really this for all the talk of like, it's Kamala and Biden, the ones who are making your egg sites. Like, no, there's another example of fucking price gouging from the fucking egg people. More price gouging. We actually covered this, I think the last time we were talking about it, but the egg industry has been openly gouging the shit out of people. So we did similar to the price gouging during the pandemic. There was a naturally occurring event
Starting point is 00:07:14 that gave them the foothold to start gouging. There was a avian flu outbreak. So there was a brief disruption to the supply chain. And then they absolutely gouged the fuck out of us. In 2023, the amount of eggs that this company, one of the, so there's this one company that I think sells 20% of the eggs in the country, which is too much percent. in the country, which is too much percent. In 2023, the amount of eggs they sold rose by five point nine percent, but their profits rose by four hundred and seventy one percent. Oh, not five point nine percent. Four hundred seventy one percent. Yes, four hundred and seventy one percent five.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Then you made almost five times. OK, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool,
Starting point is 00:08:23 cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, They're killing it. 471 is really, really kind of impressive. Yeah. Yeah. And it's because they artificially jacked up the price of eggs by manipulating the available supply. They've been like sued for doing this. They were sued by Kraft and General Mills. So rarely the heroes of the story that we're talking about,
Starting point is 00:08:39 but in this case, they were like, hey, you're kind of fucking us over by making eggs so expensive. And we're able to successfully sue the companies called CalMain and also Rose Acre Farms, two of the big egg manufacturers. Yeah. Incidentally, one of those companies chaired by a one-time Republican Senate candidate, John Rust.
Starting point is 00:09:03 But yeah, I mean mean this is what Kamala Harris mentioned in her speech announcing her economic policy that had her like laughed out of the room when she announced it by the mainstream media. Clearly the problems just unchecked corporate greed. No Jack, it's the communist price controls, you know, that friggin, uh, whatever, whatever, insert communist dictator here that Trump wants to like in this kind of shit too. Yeah. He called them Soviet style rules.
Starting point is 00:09:34 All right. But yeah, Texas attorney general. Meanwhile, like Texas attorney general Ken Paxton actually sued an egg company for jacking up prices by 300% during the pandemic. So it's like a thing that they love to point to as being a problem, the results they like to point to, but they are unwilling to even acknowledge. And in fact, the Republicans repeated obsession, horniness for deregulation is kind of what got us here. But Trump did release an infographic,
Starting point is 00:10:08 like I guess he wasn't aware of the egg thing because he had eggs were 199, now 499 on this infographic. He also had coffee was 699, now 999. That's not even true in LA. That's not, yeah. And both of those seem like too high Like 699 is too high you can't like 999 would be like at a hotel in Manhattan Yes, you know what I mean for a cup of coffee
Starting point is 00:10:35 But most I mean like the local spot I go to that does not have cheap coffee It's like they're they capped it at five bucks Yes, I still think is pretty high but six man six ninety nine six ninety nine is where it's at Anyways deregulation continues to fuck us over and we've got the party of deregulation running on like the price is too damn high We have a judge okay auctions liquidating Alex Jones info wars to help pay Sandy Hook families Yeah, that's that's some real shit. Now you can like literally buy Infowars is shit piece by piece, apparently coming up at an auction because they yeah, they have to all the assets
Starting point is 00:11:17 of the parent company free speech systems are talking about like lighting equipment from the set or like other shit like it's true that they're they're breaking it down for parts to pay it off. Jared Holt, who's been on the show, you know, who's like a right wing extremist, you know, researcher, was like on Twitter. I don't know what the exact thing was. He's like, it'd be really great if like some rich people bought it for us and we could turn info wars into like their nightmare. Yeah. You know, investigative journalism.
Starting point is 00:11:43 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, as it stands, that's how they are going to make the relatives of the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting a hole through this auction. Apparently, they'll just get to watch Alex Jones like streaming as they're like taking the set down around him, selling it off to people. Right. His like microphones being pulled off is like, I need that fuck Still be able to hear him. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, absolutely guy talks loud is what I'm saying. Anyways, let's take a quick break And we'll be right back

This summer, the nation watched as the Republican nominee for president was the target of two assassination attempts, separated by two months. These events were mirrored nearly 50 years ago, when President Gerald Ford faced two attempts on his life in less than three weeks.
Starting point is 00:15:09 President Gerald R. Ford came stunningly close to being the victim of an assassin today. And these are the only two times we know of that a woman has tried to assassinate a U.S. president. One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson. I always felt like Lynette was kind of his right-hand woman. The other, a middle-aged housewife working undercover for the FBI in a violent revolutionary underground. Identified by police as Sarah Jean Moore. The story of one strange and violent summer.

I have morbidly long torso. Yeah. Finally, the latest attempt from the Trump campaign to get a
Starting point is 00:24:52 conspiracy theory going is a theory spread by a transphobic only fans model slash steak restaurant owner who claimed that a worker at her nail salon has one cousin in Philadelphia. So again, they're so good at sourcing. Wait, Jack, you got a cousin in Philadelphia, don't you? Yeah, I do. So I'm going to also got that weird OnlyFans account and you did just buy Peter Luger's steakhouse.
Starting point is 00:25:19 Wait, OK, but go on. Don't look at my nails right now. Anyways, she said she has a worker at her nail salon has one cousin in Philadelphia who is getting paid $700 a week to go to wherever Kamala's campaign tells them to go to. And she's not even a citizen. She can't vote. Oh, wow. Wow. Wow.
Starting point is 00:25:43 Okay. So there's no way to trace this. Yes. Yes. Yes I mean this is this comes in a long Storied line of fake stories where Donald Trump has to be like it's not it can't be possible People would get out for Kamala Harris. They're paid everyone's paid. That's why my rallies are also using His whole shit started. Like, I remember that being in addition to the horrifying open racism when he announced his presidential run in 2015.
Starting point is 00:26:17 And everyone was like, this guy's a laughing stock. This is never something we'll have to worry about. Listen to how racist everything he said was. The other thing that people found noteworthy about that appearance, other than him descending on an escalator, was that the crowd just looked really strange and their signs seemed very generic and not like signs
Starting point is 00:26:46 the real people would make. It felt like the background of a movie. Yeah, exactly. Like of a very bad movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. What the fuck? These people aren't even looking like at the person talking. They're looking around up with this one is what they chanted. Good job with this guy. Him, him, him, him, him. This guy. You don't, him, him, him.
Starting point is 00:27:05 This guy, you don't know who Donald Trump is? No, no, should I? Who is this guy? He's really racist. But anyways, people looked into it and they had in fact paid actors to be there, to fill out the crowd, which is a campaign violation. So like if this were actually happening today would be a real problem.
Starting point is 00:27:29 I mean, yeah, he hired a company which then hired subcontractors that put out the casting call for extra bodies. Right. Yeah. It's wild that like these companies then evolved into being like, hey, pseudo celebrity, do you want people to pretend like they give a fuck about you? We can put bodies there to now be like, hello, politicians, do you need bodies to make it seem like your odious candidate
Starting point is 00:27:56 is actually someone people want to be around? Hey, call us, we can do it. Yeah, Crowds On Demand is an actual company. Clever name. Clever name. Clever name. Clever name. Anyways, that is some of the stuff that is trending on this Wednesday, September 25th.
