Hello the internet and welcome to this week trend edition of Dead Ali's Icase! Whoa, my voice just did something there. I got a little bit of a cold, Miles.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Not ashamed to say it, I got a little bit of like woke up with a little something in my throat and uh I love when podcasters come on they're like god you're gonna hear me I I sound so crazy right now you're like you don't sound any different from how you normally although you don't you never catch that like with shows you listen to a lot I can be like they're a little congested a little. They're not fully like I can hear that there are a few clicks off. I can sense. I listened to all my podcasts at 3.5 speed. So, uh, 3.5 X the normal speed. So it's a little harder to pick up. What's the fastest you can listen to a podcast. I can do like about 1.8.
Starting point is 00:07:59 I don't really, I've stopped really listening to podcasts for information. So I don't really do like sped up podcasts. Cause they just roll your eyes when they try and teach you something. At this point, I'm more just listening to the podcast for the vibes and then reading for the information. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I do them all fast. Even when I watch like reality TV, I'm watching it at like 1.7x. Really? I have like a, I have a pluginin on my brow because there's so much hot
Starting point is 00:08:26 There's so much expository nonsense like I might get to the trash like I don't need these like The garbage give me the garbage now Faster. Well, my name is Jack O'Brien that over there is miles gray. This is the Podcast where we tell you what was trending over the weekend Usually we have regular episodes where we tell you what was trending over the weekend. Usually we have regular episodes where we tell you what's trending. I don't know. I'm talking to new listeners, I guess. Just bailing on it?
Starting point is 00:08:55 And we got Norma. I don't know, man. Welcome, I guess. I don't know, man. Yeah, this is the one where we tell you what happened over the weekend because we haven't been in touch with you for a few days now. It's been way too long. Guys, we missed you. Yes.
Starting point is 00:09:11 But before we get into the stories that are trending, we do like to let you get to know us a little bit better by telling you some things we think is underrated, overrated, uh, miles. What is something that you think is underrated? Oh, God. So many things after this wild weekend I had. First up, just random. I got like a lot of short ones. Seltzer flavors, underrated. They're getting better. They're getting better. It used to be like, lemon? You want grapefruit? Do you like soap? No.
Starting point is 00:09:47 Damn, man. I still remember when I got that pomplamoose for the first time, the La Croix pomplamoose. There was something so classy, something so classy about that day. But now they're getting me like I know that a lot of like millennials are driving like the no alcohol trend, like with no alcohol beer and things like that, but also are becoming larger consumers of just generally like non-alcohol, like just seltzer juice. And they're going after us because these flavors, they're like, they touch me in a way. And I mean, emotionally, I don't know why I was trying to phrase it like that. They appeal to me in a way that I have not like had since like the 90s being a child. There's one called Strawberry Sunset.
Starting point is 00:10:27 I'm always like this might be sweet soda. It's seltzer so I'm already in a little bit better because no sugar. Strawberry Kiwi Pineapple. This is a great flavor. These are just straight up Snapple flavors. Yeah. It's basically like the good ones to me are basically soda without the high fructose corn syrup in it. Right. But the flavors are so vivid, like your tongue's doing knots. So shout out those seltzer flavors. Another underrated thing, again, this happens all the time.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Hurricane Helene happened, and I think the death toll is somewhere near like 100, probably expected to be more as they meet people in remote areas. But the news coverage again, barely any talk of climate change as like the why to all of this. And it's like so unnerving, not that it has to be like around the clock, but for how little acknowledgement there is to all of that. And like, like really,
Starting point is 00:11:20 but also trying to connect people to like the pain and the pain and the chaos and loss that people are experiencing on being like in one of these disaster areas without trying to connect the dots as to how we can do better or prevent this it just feels very dystopian and just another underrated part of again how you know it's what we choose to talk about or not talk about that has a huge impact. There were hurricanes before Miles. Exactly, exactly and then just generally underrated talking to strangers I went on a camping
Starting point is 00:11:52 trip with a lot of friends and we brought our kids it was really fun and there was this dude who had like a fucking gigantic telescope at like one of the campsite like one of the nearby sites and we're all like oh that guy's fucking telescope dude that shit looks probably looks so sick without the light pool. Oh my God. What's he fucking seeing? And then it was like, why don't we just go fucking talk to the guy? Like, I'm sure. Yeah. Like, no, I don't know. He's probably dangerous, man. But then we're like, a guy with a telescope probably wants that. That shit is out there for someone to be like, Hey, But that shit is out there for someone to be like, hey, is that a telescope?
Starting point is 00:12:22 They're like, do you want to look at Andromeda? You know, that's, and like, the funniest part was this guy actually ended up knowing someone we were with. Wow. Like randomly, they used to work together like eight years ago and they're like, yo, is that you? And completely in the darkness, we're like, oh my God. And we all had a great time.
Starting point is 00:12:43 We got to look in his telescope. It was, looked at Saturn, that shit, like, oh my God. And we all had a great time. We got to look in his telescope. It was looked at Saturn. That shit, like just looking at Saturn casually on a camping trip on a telescope is, I don't know what it is. It was so exciting and stimulating in a way that I just, you know what I mean? Like it just, I can't put my finger on it being in the city all the time. You just become so jaded and with the, you know, just the light pollution, you can barely see stars, but to really see them for this city kid was a wonderful experience.
Starting point is 00:13:12 So shout out to Omar with the telescope. Yeah, that does feel like dead fishing, like fishing for death. You just like set up a big telescope and you're like, what? And watch them flock like that. See it in a high fidelity where he's like, I'm going to put this song on and watch them all come up and buy some records. Yeah. Brian pointed out Saturn really looks like Saturn fully.
Starting point is 00:13:37 Yeah. Saturn blows your mind. Yes. If I had to like draw Saturn, I would draw it exactly as it looks like when you finally see it in a telescope. Oh yeah. And I think it's the most fun of all the planets. It's the most fun looking one. Yeah. The rings. Yeah, man. Miss and I get Jupiter is also fantastic and all that, but like the just just the fact that it has rings. I'm like, yep, yep, yep. That's pretty
Starting point is 00:14:02 cool. That's then he was like, hey man, come back around three. We'll be able to see Jupiter. Oh, and I was like, I'm not gonna be up at three in the morning, but thank you. And then when I saw him the next morning, I was like, did you catch it? He's like, no, I fell asleep, man. I was like, oh, okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:14:17 So we did all this. If you had shown up at three, knock, knock. He's like, oh shit. I haven't ascended to the like black belt level of dadding where you like wake up in the middle of the night to like see a meteor shower. I just I don't have that in me. I still need my sleep. You know much. You will.
Starting point is 00:14:34 All right. My underrated. I also have a couple just because you had a couple. I just frantically added one. And also because I just got a tech from, keep up. It's a, it's a competition. I just got a text from my in-laws. Uh, we, we were having an issue with one of our tires where like I took it to, uh, the gas station added air and it just like didn't it wouldn't take more air essentially. Oh, like every time like the pressure gauge came out, it was just like, hey, man,
Starting point is 00:15:11 this is what it is. Yeah. Don't expect to go up. Yeah. Yes. It was very emasculating. It was just like, wow. Anyways, they just took it in down the street and had a massive nail removed from our tire, which is the second one, like in the past six months. And I'm just like, yeah, why are motherfuckers just out here throwing nails like it's Mario Kart weapons? Like what is happening? Why are there so many giant nails on
Starting point is 00:15:39 the street? I had a tire drove over a screw. And like not even like eight days later drove over another screw on the same tire. Yeah. Hey, when I was younger, I wasn't doing this shit all the time. I don't know what happened, but this feels like now it's the summer of the nail or screw. Yeah. I blame Mario Kart personally. And then my other one is, so I just read this book called The Premonitions Bureau, which
Starting point is 00:16:06 is about this actual group, like this doctor in the late 60s, who discovered that like after this big massive mining disaster, like a coal mine was like piling all their coal waste on top of like a big hill that was overlooking a town, which is not not a good idea, it turns out. And it just turned it like liquefied and turned into a wave and like killed hundreds of people, like took out a whole schoolhouse of children. Horrifying story. And like all these people had these like premonitions in and around the town and around England right before it.
Starting point is 00:16:47 People had wild dreams where these horrifying things were happening. And so he started this thing called the premonitions bureau where people would send in their premonitions and then they would check them against fact. And they basically like didn't find that many hits, but there was this one woman who, like, just kept nailing things over and over. She got like a train derailment. She got a air crash, like multiple airplane crashes. And she like really nailed RFK's assassination. Like she was like in the week leading.
Starting point is 00:17:26 Specifically? Yes, RFK's, she was like, I feel like this man's going to get assassinated. And she just, she was like reaching out to people, like trying to get them to listen to her. I don't believe that there's like a magical thing that is like going into her brain. I think what is happening,
Starting point is 00:17:46 like my thesis after reading this is because like one of the details that is different about these premonitions from like what you see in movies is that like they get a lot of the details wrong. Like they'll be like, it's a gray plane on its side and it'll be like a blue plane, you know, like, or, but they just like have a sense that something's happening. I just think that like what's happening is they have better access to their unconscious mind and like are able to intuit when something is going to happen. And like with the coal waste disaster, like a lot of the people in the town were having these premonitions, I think probably because it was like at some level kind of obvious that something bad was eventually going to happen.
Starting point is 00:18:35 If you keep piling this shit like right above the town. Right. I feel like just naturally like, that doesn't feel good. If that feels like the bad thing that would happen is all that coal waste would come down and wipe us out. But anyway, I don't know. Maybe it's a premonition of logic. And then like in your day to day life, like your conscious mind is like being told this narrative that every it's like, well, everybody else is just acting like it's no big deal. So, you know, your unconscious mind or your conscious mind like kind of shuts it out. But then people who have this access to, you know, it's like when you hear a novelist or a songwriter like talk about how their work is like dictated to them by some higher being
Starting point is 00:19:18 or like some voice that is like completely outside of them. I think it's that basically, and it's just the unconscious mind is like this incredibly vast thing that can be really intuitive and impressive at like predicting things. But, um, yeah, I, I don't believe that like they are getting like a flash of something that's actually going to happen like sure through the ether of time I think just that they're wildly intuitive yeah their vibe yeah it's vibes based is my theory on this because you think about like all the research about how little we are able to sort of use our full
Starting point is 00:20:01 brain capacity for things yeah that unknown makes me a little bit more open to this idea that like there are things that we are actually perceiving with our brain that for whatever reason, we haven't evolved to the point to fully like process and analyze all of this information. So yeah, I can feel shout out to the Vibers out there. Yeah. Shout out to the Vibers. Keep us safe, please.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Yeah. You only use like 11% of your brain thing. I've heard that be debunked as like, well, that's just like at a time because there are like different specialized parts of your brain, but it's definitely true that we are only like our conscious mind is just a very small like spotlight on what is actually all the processes that are happening. And yeah, there's a really good book on it called Incognito by David Eagleman.
Starting point is 00:20:49 I've talked about before on the show. What is, Miles, something you think is overrated? Overrated just because I was camping over the weekend. A normal vacation trip, I think, is overrated because there's something about a trip that takes you into like out of your day to day or your comfort zone that has a lot of benefits to it that I was really not like counting on. Just like the amount of because you're out in nature immediately, like everyone's phones were like everyone like lost their phone because they weren't using them and everyone was like, oh shit, my phone was like over here on this random picnic table. Like, and I just didn't, I wasn't thinking about it at all. Even though we had service up there, it just wasn't a thing that we were interested at
Starting point is 00:21:35 all. And just the amount of like talking, communicating, being with our kids and like showing them stuff, it's just a much different experience than like if you go somewhere and like think chill out somewhere and like chill out somewhere, like on a, you know, whatever, whatever normal kind of trip you might take. And just look at your phone. Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:21:52 Exactly. And I think just being out of there just like stim was stimulating in this way that was like really, really beneficial that I'm still kind of like, I'm living off of that like nature high that you get just from from communing with the outdoors. So I just think like, when we think about what we get out of a trip, like with your family a lot, I think the setting is really massively important because a it's like so cheap to go camping and like be outdoors if like you have the equipment for it.
Starting point is 00:22:22 And in this way, like you're just just like We're forced to do something completely different with our time that I think ends up being like more personal more intimate more just Fulfilling so yeah, the normal stuff a little bit overrated now that I'm like and now I got her majesty She's fucking with camping before She was pretty I get like the little angst around it because you have like a baby and like, you know It's like there's no running water. We have to bring a lot of this stuff ourselves. But it was also like really good for like our relationship. It's like one of those things, you know,
Starting point is 00:22:52 like just from the challenge of it and overcoming it, you have just a much deeper connection. So yeah, shout out that, shout out the unorthodox form of relaxing because being in nature and doing it all yourself, I think is relaxing in a very different way. So yeah, that's mine. Counterpoint my overrated insects are fucking annoying. You were just caping for my underrated last week. Insects,
Starting point is 00:23:17 my overrated this week, also insects specifically happened. Oh man. We got, we got lit up by a mosquito in my house Like I don't know if it's like one Jaws like mosquito that's just like coming for us. But yeah, my son is Absolutely covered in like mosquito bites. I hear them in my ear when I'm like about to drift off to sleep Which yep, like why have an annoying voice? You're just going to suck on my blood when I pass out anyway. It's like why?
Starting point is 00:23:53 Well, what it what possible reason does that serve evolutionary? You're bullying a mosquito. I do. Why? Why is your voice like, why is your voice sound like shit? But now you want to be like, meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee . .
Starting point is 00:24:13 . . . But yeah, we went on a camping trip last year and there were all these flies that like just hover around your mouth eyes and nose that were yeah real they just know the orifices are the coolest part for a bug yeah yeah like I just land inside your ears like the door of a club um I mean they're gonna die again I have to question your judgment but you're gonna die if you go in there in my mouth. I'm going to eat your ass. Okay.
Starting point is 00:24:45 You're going to make you to eat it. You wouldn't just spit it out. Nah. All right. Got to teach them a lesson or at least chew it up a little bit and spit it out. So the other ones know. Yeah, there you go. There you go.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Also just overrating the, uh, safety of the clean versions of songs. My six year old asked me to Shazam a song when we were in a coffee shop this weekend. And it was a song I thought was called neck on yacht. So I added it. I found that there was a clean version. No E next to it. Added to the playlist. And then when we got to the car, I started playing it. And it's all about getting neck on a yacht.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Just open. Yeah, I'm getting neck on a yacht. That's the first words. So, um, and inevitably, yeah. Well, what is that? What does that mean? I also fucked up and let my other son watch transformers and now it's his favorite movie and he's walking around like making transformer noises and like talking about US military vehicles. Wow. I thought it like I thought I'd take anything but Star Wars at this point but it turns out that was that was not a smart decision like
Starting point is 00:26:00 Star Wars way better than Transformers. Oh boy. Because it's like basically like military propaganda. Yeah right at least with Star Wars it better than Transformers. Oh boy, cuz it's like basically like military propaganda Yeah, right at least with Star Wars. It was like whimsical, you know, I know Learn about the military industrial complex and what went into building that Death Star and remove. Yeah. Yeah Tell me about Apache attack helicopters He was he was like, Oh Chinook attack helicopter. Damn. That's cool.
Starting point is 00:26:28 Like under his breath, like not even saying it in a bragging way. Um, but yeah, so my one son's at school right now talking about attack helicopters and his brothers at school talking about getting neck on a yacht. Um, I think I'm killing it as a parent. Don't let him embarrass himself. But Chinook is not an attack helicopter. Okay. Oh, okay. My bad. Yeah. But Chinook is not an attack helicopter. OK, OK, my bad.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Yeah. Oh, lifting. Oh, my God, if he heard me say that, he would be so mortified. I'm just going to let me come over. Be like, hey, man, I'm going to show you some stuff. Your dad don't want to talk to you. You know about vertical takeoff? No, this is going to be this be real cool.

Are we good?
Starting point is 00:30:54 Oh, we push record, right? Okay. And this season, we're taking a bigger bite out of the most delicious food and its history. Seeing that the most popular cocktail is the Margarita, followed by the Mojito from Cuba, and the Pinyo Colada from Puerto Rico. So all of these we have, we thank Latin culture.
Starting point is 00:31:13 There's a mention of blood sausage in Homer's Odyssey that dates back to the ninth century BC. BC? I didn't realize how old the hot dog was. Listen to Hungry for History as part of the My Cultura podcast network, available on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

We're breaking the stigma and silence around sex and sexuality in Latinx communities. This podcast is an intergenerational conversation between Latinas from GenX to Gen Z. We're covering everything from body image to representation in film and television. We even interview iconic Latinas like Puerto Rican actress Ana Ortiz. I felt in control of my own physical body and my own self.
Starting point is 00:32:06 I was on birth control. I had sort of had my first sexual experience. If you're in your señora era or know someone who is, then this is the show for you. We're your hosts, Diossa and Mala, and you might recognize us from our flagship podcast, Locatora Radio. We're so excited for you to hear our brand new podcast, Senora Sex Ed. Listen to Senora Sex Ed on the iHeartRadio app,
Starting point is 00:32:30 Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. And we're back. And speaking of good dads, we've got a GOP candidate named Derek Anderson, who posted footage on his YouTube channel of him posing with his family. Yeah, so it's wife and three daughters. His wife, three daughters. Except it's not his family, it's a family, specifically a friend's family.
Starting point is 00:33:09 He's engaged, has no kids, does have a dog though, which I feel like that makes him what the GOP official platform fucking hates, right? Yeah. You're wait, hold on. You're a childless pet owner, fucking loser. Oh my God. Out with you. Out out with you no stake in the future yeah absolutely not this is it's just so funny too that it's such a it's so blatantly meant to be like and this is this man with his family and the way the campaign is trying to fucking pivot around it to just be like, this is merely they said it depicts Anderson, quote,
Starting point is 00:33:45 posing with female supporters and their kids. It is straight up a family picture. Like, yeah, they're in front of a house where the implication is it. They're in their house. Yeah. Yeah. It's I mean, who amongst us hasn't posed for a family photo with a friend's spouse and the children while the spouse is mysteriously absent The spat the husband is is missing. Yeah, it's like where's the where's your best? Why wouldn't he be in the photo too? Yeah
Starting point is 00:34:15 I mean if you're trying to be like these are my constituents then you be like and look at this fine nuclear family that I am posing with haha I'm very normal. But when you think again, this guy's running for Congress as a Republican, he's got bad, like this feels like one of those things where when you look at his whole platform, you're like, oh, you're trying to soften your image up because you're an ex green beret who thinks, you know,
Starting point is 00:34:41 people with a uterus have no right to decide what happens with their body. So what's the next best thing to be like? And I too hang out with uteruses and here they are. I respect them. Check out my collection of uteri. When your weird opinions on women can't be laundered as being pro-family values. Like this is what you have to do. Unfortunately, in this case,
Starting point is 00:35:08 his strategy for sending that message would in any other circumstances imply that he was going to straight up Dicky Greenleaf murder his friend and take over his life in the town of Mr. Ripley. Yeah, oh my God. So this was like a debate like recently where he was just asked very straightforward,
Starting point is 00:35:31 Mr. Family Pictures guy, what's your take on, you know, well, the women of Virginia having the right to make decisions about their own bodies? I wanna piggyback, because we still have a little time. So I wanna make sure we're absolutely clear. Do you support a woman's right to choose yes or no? I support the states to be able to make those decisions that best fits those.
Starting point is 00:35:50 Do you support a woman's right to choose? Look, I've answered the question twice now. Um, I've said it twice now and I've said that each state is going to have to make determination. Yeah, that's it. That's the kind of dad I'd also want to dad. Yeah. Dad, can, can, can, can't can I have this thing for dinner?
Starting point is 00:36:07 Well, I think that the someone else should decide that therefore it's look, I don't know how to say no. So I'm going to just toss it up to some other weird obscure concept. Kermit ass voice on that guy, too. Yeah, that is a Kermit ass voice. Not what I was expecting from a green beret. Probably not. They're probably not putting his voice out there very much. Here's a free tip to the people running the campaign against him. Just like I get the
Starting point is 00:36:41 heinous political views he has, just start bullying him with that Kermit ass voice They're like Derek Anderson has a Kermit ass voice Well, I believe that one day Able to decide what this man says he was a Green Beret. That ain't no Green Beret voice I ever heard It's not easy being green is it Kermit? I ever heard. It's not easy being green is it Kermit? Bitch. Oh, I'm sorry, the green beret.
Starting point is 00:37:07 Was that part of the fucking Muppet military, my man? Oh, okay. Here I am on another mission waiting to harm poor people in the name of American imperial. Oh, anyway. Yeah. Kermit ass voice. Yeah. Yeah. Kermit ass voice. Yeah. Wow.
Starting point is 00:37:27 That's voice. All right. Speaking of American imperialism, let's get into Donald Trump's weekend and Israel's strategy of escalate to deescalate. Right. Which seems cool and probably. Hard for me to follow the logic of that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Is that like a get up to get down kind of thing? Gotta, gotta get up to get down. I don't know. Yeah, I mean, they are massing at the border, ready to invade. It's truly no end in sight. Like it's unclear where any of the war crimes and just unilateral attacks will end. Their current policy claims to be do more violence to create a more peaceful future.
Starting point is 00:38:16 But yeah, there's a good Jacobin article about just this idea of escalate to de-escalate where the piece that they envision seems to be like the total capturing capitulation of the people they are fighting. And we've seen what they do to people who are under their control. Like they create an apartheid state. Yeah. With like just the logic too of like, you know, we want to make sure that the displaced people are able to return. That's why it's really important for us to have like these incursions into Lebanon. Yeah. And like you said, there's like tanks amassing at the border. A lot of people are wondering what the end game is because, you know, over the weekend, they they they killed like the leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, in like
Starting point is 00:39:03 like a strike that like flattened six buildings, again, I think as the reporting says, using US-produced bunker-busting bombs with hundreds of innocent people killed, including women and children. It's just replaying over and over. And now you're seeing the same thing where it's like, well, now Israel's thinking about a very limited ground incursion or mission, but very limited, very limited, very limited in scale and knowing how that turns into something much wider and much more disastrous. But yeah, like I think the Biden administration was like, it seemed like a just action to take out the head of Hezbollah. But then they also say, but we're also concerned of something spiraling out into something
Starting point is 00:39:48 wider. You said that about Gaza and then they started getting way more aggressive in the West Bank. And then now we're talking about Lebanon. So with all this stuff of like, well, the expansion, we don't really want it to spiral out of control. It's just, it's all rhetoric. But yeah, it's a it's a very spiraling. I don't know what you want, but it does appear to be spiraling.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Yeah. I'm like the one which was tumbling end. It actually is more like that. It's tumbling end over end. The policy of using, uh, harsh words while still giving them all the weapons they want, uh, doesn't seem to be working. I was reading a New Yorker article on the uncommitted movement and they pointed out, so a lot of people are comparing this moment and this election to 1968 because that was
Starting point is 00:40:39 the election when the Democratic incumbent LBJ bailed on reelection because he was very unpopular, at least largely due to his role in expanding a horrible genocidal war in Vietnam, and they were left with LBJ's VP to run for president and they lost to Nixon. My historical memory of that election is that the big issue that drove that election was Vietnam. Like that was the election where like Nixon like made it seem like he was the only choice for peace. And this article made the point that actually
Starting point is 00:41:18 the war in Gaza is less popular than the Vietnam War was at that time. Like the current war in Gaza is actually less popular than the Vietnam War in 1968. And we have both sides just being like, yeah, what are you gonna do, essentially? Right, yeah, yeah. Well, yeah, we'll see if it again spiraling,
Starting point is 00:41:39 because I mean, I've even forgot to mention like Yemen and Syria, like it's not just like, Israel is going everywhere. Yeah. And yeah, and I think a lot of people are just looking at what is the end game here and then what happens and what's the United States role now in this new front that's opening up. But it seems like at the moment, our role is our our our supply of weapons and munitions.
Starting point is 00:42:02 So God, yeah, maybe. Yeah, we'll see, we'll see. Well, maybe we'll get another thing where Joe Biden says, hey man, I'm really pissed about what's happening. I'm gonna say, I'm freaking peeved over here. I am dude. Yeah, and meanwhile, yeah, just the violence continues. So please, please do something different, Kamala Harris. Will you, can you just articulate something just slightly different? So please, please do something different, Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 00:42:25 Can you just articulate something just slightly different? Maybe run away from Biden's horribly unpopular record on this war instead of like just staying close to it. Meanwhile, in other, the cruelty is the point news. The cruelty is the point brothers, Netanyahu and Trump. Trump spent the weekend calling for basically a real purge, but also people are pointing out it basically crystal knock is also the way more fucked up and genuinely terrifying reference point.
Starting point is 00:43:01 But Trump suggested putting Mike Kelly in charge of quote, one day of violence that would put an end to crime or even one rough hour. The world will get it out and it will end immediately. End immediately. You know, it will end immediately folks. So yeah, a lot of people were like, that is the purge. Right, right, right. You're saying one day where there are no rules except to do as much violence to try and put
Starting point is 00:43:31 people off of doing anything bad to you? Yeah. Is that that's kind of what we're talking about here? Yeah. And like to your point, because we're so like our sense of history is so skewed, people like the purge. Yeah. That's what it's going to be.
Starting point is 00:43:46 Yeah, Noah Berlatsky was the first one that I saw on Twitter pointing this out where someone was like Trump is literally proposing the purge LMAO and Noah Berlatsky was like he's not proposing the purge is proposing Kristal Knox. This is one of those cases where I'm afraid that the fictional fascism has overwritten the actual fascism in unhelpful ways. Yeah. I mean, it sounds like, again, you're sure it's like the criminals, but we all know that's like coded for like marginal communities. And then what? So if you burn down a town or something and terrorize black and brown people, they'll knock it off with the crime.
Starting point is 00:44:25 Right. That's the logic. So the root cause of people stealing or whatever is because they're just not sufficiently scared enough. It's not, it has nothing to do with like the resources available to them. Okay. They're not scared enough. Yeah, yeah, they're not scared enough.
Starting point is 00:44:40 That's the, that is the theory of the case. That sounds like the Fred Trump school of parenting probably is just like, yeah, man, like, you just got to scare the shit out of your kids, man. Make them think you're a monster. And then they'll, I think they'll be okay. I don't know. I don't really talk to them. Noah Berlatsky goes on to point out like that what Trump is proposing is not funsies for
Starting point is 00:45:02 everybody gets to go do it. It's the police being empowered to murder marginalized people. So yeah, he's said a lot of wild shit this weekend. Yeah. His rhetoric. Yeah. Over the weekend, he also in a different speech said about immigrants. They will walk into your kitchen. They'll cut your throat. Small towns in America are terrified of migrants coming in and even when they haven't arrived They're terrified. They will rape pillage thief plunder and kill the people of the United States of America
Starting point is 00:45:33 I'm always like where's the bottom for this rhetoric? You know what I mean? And then it's just now it's just saying like they're literally gonna kill everyone in the country and slit your throat and do all kinds of terrible things to you Yeah untold things and that's that's my policy now Then he was also saying like Kamala Harris was mentally disabled or maybe Biden was mentally disabled And she she's like she was born that way just really fucking Awful shit just for the sake of just being as awful as possible. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:08 But I don't know. Is that I don't know if that's a winning strategy. I don't know. Spooky scary show does seem to always work out for him. Like when he just triples down on the worst impulses of the people who support him, like he seems to garner more support as everyone's like, well, surely this is the end for him. Right. Yeah, I don't know. Like I got a fundraising email from Mother Jones this morning calling him like a felon with authoritarian leanings.
Starting point is 00:46:38 I don't think we need to say like leaning anymore. Yeah. I think he tumped over into full authoritarian aspirations, should we say? Yeah, right. Yeah, right. Exactly. It's like, well, just because he hasn't done the thing doesn't mean he doesn't want to. And that's what he's representing. He leans for a long time. I think I think we're all the way over now.
Starting point is 00:46:59 Oh, yeah. Let's let's take a quick break and we'll come back. Let's take a quick break and we'll come back. a podcast for all ages, one you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th.

Starting point is 00:52:40 And what else, what else is in the news? Um, Megalopolis came out. I like to say what else? You're like thumbing through a newspaper. Ah, what else? What else? What else? What else? Megalopolis, baby. Yeah, you see this Megalopolis thing?
Starting point is 00:53:00 We got it. So this is the we do have to see it before. And we're going to have to see it in the next couple of days because that shit is going to be vanishing from theaters. So the the number one movie at the box office this past weekend was The Wild Robot, which people seem to really love. I'm going to be taking my son to see that and just trying to get him have have a cinematic experience with a robot that doesn't have machine gun arms and work for the Pentagon. So it did well. People seem to really love it.
Starting point is 00:53:34 It's got like a 98 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. It made 35 million. On the other end of the spectrum, Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis made $4 million. He self-financed it using $120 million of his own dollars. And it was a movie that had obsessed him for years. So he just like, you know, spent, I don't think he was like, this is a smart business decision. Yeah, right. I'm sure people were like, you're going to sell your wine business to make this pile of crap. Yeah, it's still a pretty dire outcome. One of the questions we had heading in this, this was a movie where during the con screening,
Starting point is 00:54:17 there's a moment where Adam Driver's character is doing a press conference, taking questions from reporters in the film. And then a real life human in the audience stands up and asks a question. And everyone's like, what the fuck? So that happened in one or two screenings. But for the most part, they just had it replaced by voiceover from a reporter in the movie. Coward. I will be at any screening that I go to, I will be playing the role. I'll have a, a Derby cap with a press card in it, but will otherwise not be in costume. Just screaming above, like just trying to perform for everybody like grab the keys get in the freaking truck. Jaroni. I'll slap you to Rony
Starting point is 00:55:16 So our writer JM went to see this movie he said first I guess he got one of the screenings where the actor Is interacting with Adam Driver and he said it just wasn't that interesting. A dude just walks up on stage, asks him a question during a press conference and then that's it. It doesn't really go anywhere. He also, he said, the movie is bafflingly bad most of the time. Jam has really good taste in movies.
Starting point is 00:55:43 This clip is a good representation of how the whole thing feels. Should we just play the audio from this? It's it is wild. Yeah, that can't go wrong. This scene is just so strange. The performances, it's the scene. You might've seen it because there is a part where he's like, go back to the club and yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:04 Whole. Yeah. Well here. You, yeah. Whole. Yeah. Well, here you want to help me. Yeah. And so just sitting at a table. Fantastic spread. I want to learn. And you think one year of medical school entitles you to plow through the riches of my Amazonian mind entitles me. Yes.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Entitles me. Say it again. Yes. Entitles. Yes. Yes. You have no idea about me. You think I am nothing, just a socialite. No, not nothing. But I reserve my time for people who can think about science and literature and architecture and art. Dude, I can't handle this.
Starting point is 00:56:43 Yeah, it's so bad. He just has the biggest fucking like charcuterie board in front of him for some reason. Yeah, it's I mean, it's like it's sort of like I get I get that it's so maximalist, like it's the kind of evoking some kind of painting of, you know, like a king or something with just an infinite amount of food set before him. But just like the pace of the dialogue, I haven't, this is the first time I've actually seen something a little bit more than the trailer and I'm like, what, why are they talking
Starting point is 00:57:16 like this? Why are they talking so slow? And like, why does the music like make it feel like a fucking telenovela and it just feels weird and like Badly, yeah, like it feels like a bad student film later in that scene Which it is physically impossible to get to I just started later Impossible to watch the whole scene, but she like accuses him of manipulating the laws of physics. And he's like, what? And then like he suddenly is like interested in her. And then Lawrence Fishburne like appears next to him for some reason. Like, whoa.
Starting point is 00:57:55 Yeah. Morpheus. All right. So yeah, man. Pretty cool. I do feel like. Well, that is so weird. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:03 I just saw that camera move like a conversation ends and then they just pan or like they just pan it over and he's standing next to him. It's been standing there the whole time. Just like the blocking was bad and that's the reveal. Yeah, I don't know. Isn't it like fucking 17 hours to maybe maybe I can't see it in the theater. Oh, that clip took a lot of the wind out of myself. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:58:27 It did. Yeah, I'm not going to lie. This is kind of fucked me up. This is yeah, it's like to the point where I'm like getting angry bad. Yeah. All right. Well, about as I can, if you if you've seen it, please let us know. I'd love to hear. Yeah. I would love to hear a positive read on the movie if people if somebody like, you know, took too many mushrooms and went and saw it or something. Yeah, or they're like, it's no it's actually so bad. It's funny
Starting point is 00:58:50 Right. Go go see it because it's so bad unintentionally, but it feels like right now it's feeling so bad It's it's bad meaning bad. Yeah bad bad. Mm-hmm. All right other big news Uber will now deliver bad Halloween costumes to you. They are partnering with Spirit Halloween. So if you're not wanting to visit the bleak husks of your once favorite retail centers or bank or bank, you know, now you can just have the costumes brought to you. This does feel like a an idea that will make sense. Like people will use this, right?
Starting point is 00:59:34 Nobody likes going to the Spirit Halloween places or not. I like it, but like I feel a lot of people are probably like, they're not going to be doing that in my at my door. Yeah, nobody's checking for door dash spirit Halloween cut like the whole point if I ever get a costume I want to go to the store because then you see something different. You're like, I thought I was gonna be a construction worker But yeah, I want to be a spooky pimp. Yeah This idea sucks. I was wrong spooky pimp. Yeah, this idea sucks.
