Hi, I'm Akilah Hughes, and I'm so excited about my new podcast, Rebel Spirit, where I head back to my hometown
Starting point is 00:01:37 in Kentucky and try to convince my high school to change their racist mascot, the rebels, into something everyone in the South loves, the biscuits. I was a lady rebel. Like, what does that even mean? It's right here in black and white in print. It's bigger than a flag or mascot. Listen to Rebel Spirit on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Oh, hello, Internet, and welcome to this edition of, oh, this just in, Bill Barr trenders his resignation.
Starting point is 00:02:08 So, peace to that fuckwit, who was one of the president's most staunch and loyal fucking henchpeople. But more on that later. I would like to introduce you to one of my most effective henchpeople, like, that are just out here in the game right now. Please welcome Super Producer Anna Hosnier. Hello. Whatever you want, sir. Yes. Get the poison.
Starting point is 00:02:34 Wait, what? Oh, man. Who were you poisoning? People fuck with poison like that? Yes. We can't have that on mic because those are receipts that could happen in our criminal trial.
Starting point is 00:02:40 You know who fucks with poison? I'm going to, maybe, allegedly, allegedly, Mary M. Crosby and her grandmother's very suspicious death, according to Reddit. Again, I said allegedly.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Allegedly. Do not come for me. Alleged. Not facts. Alleged. I don't know anything. Not facts. I'm reading Reddit.
Starting point is 00:02:59 But y'all, read that R slash, R, what is it? R-O-H-O-S-L-C. The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City subreddit. Because it's a mess in there. And Mary, you're a fucking clown, Mary. I can't fucking stand what I've seen so far this show. But this is not two people yammering on about their favorite reality shows. Well, it's us. So we turned trends into a recap show.
Starting point is 00:03:24 I know, yeah. Exactly. It's like, okay, so I'm almost caught a recap show. I know, yeah, exactly. It's like, okay, so I'm almost caught up on Bachelorette. So Hometowns is coming up? Yep, yep, you know it. That's tonight? Tonight, Hometowns, baby. This is the first time I watch a Hometown as it was happening versus you being like,
Starting point is 00:03:39 yo, it was a mess. Even if you don't watch the episode, watch the clip. Because the last good one I felt like was when you were on the road for tour and it was like, don was a mess. Even if you don't watch the episode, watch the clip. Because the last good one I felt like was when we were on the road for tour and it was like, don't leave her. Oh, yeah. Bring her home to us, Peter. Bring her home, Peter.
Starting point is 00:03:55 About the most unexpected contestant where we were like, wait, what? That bitch? Fuck, don't bring her home, Peter. So let's check out what's trending besides don't bring her home peter uh let's see first up let's just go with hashtag biden will never be president you heard it here first on twitter it um kind of overnight became a trend apparently when people are sort of analyzing it they're like oh maybe oh, maybe Bop Brigade is in the building. But also, I believe that there are plenty of salty, in-denial MAGA people who are really on the, you know, it's like their version of not my president. But Biden will never be president is a very, very.
Starting point is 00:04:39 That's absurd. They're, you know, they, this is all they have. It's all they have. It's all I have, Anna, is my fleeting sense of superiority based on my race and my religion why do you want to be like time stamped in history as a person who clearly just refused to acknowledge reality i think the difference is right like 2016 everybody wait, man, we're in some fucked up bubbles. Like, you know, the Democrats took an L being like, right. We just thought everybody was watching MSNBC.
Starting point is 00:05:16 And that was the tone of the country without realizing, no, it's a fucking real world out there. And I think if you were, you had the wherewithal to be like, am I in a bubble? Do I need to actually kind of take a step back and realize what's informing my reality because i don't like being shocked when i'm completely ignorant of how the rest of the world or even the country or city i live in is feeling but conservatives on the other hand their bubble is tighter than fucking fort knox you're not getting in there and you're not getting out that motherfucker because they i think and you can tell by how they're reacting to this thing it's because they are like what yeah what are you talking about people didn't vote what do you mean everybody didn't want to vote for trump it's like because you've been watching this rah-rah propaganda bullshit so they got us yeah exactly welcome so now do better but we were all like well he's president we believe believe it. Now we do better.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Yeah, because the pivot was, damn, man. Okay, I thought so. Half of the country ain't shit. Yeah. Okay, that makes sense. And that was a realization. These people aren't saying, damn. They can't even do the version of what people on the left did.
Starting point is 00:06:18 It was go, man, half the country ain't shit. They're going, nah, this is a lie. This can't be. And he will never be our president yeah joe benon no no no so uh good good luck to president joe benon uh as he enters office now let's see jeff bridges is also trending because he got a puppy yeah and he shaved his head because he's going through his cancer treatment but yeah he's you know he's he shaved his head because he's going through his cancer treatment but yeah he's you know he's he has spirits are high uh you know just the dude man
Starting point is 00:06:52 you know he's got a special plate place in people's hearts who if you went to college between the years of 1998 and 2006 or 8 as well i like the only thing I picked up from that photo, which I did see yesterday, was that he got a puppy. Right, and not that he achieved that. I did not notice that at all. I was just like, look at the puppy. Look at him. I mean, yeah, to be fair, that is the thing that's uplifting. Although his smile is pretty big in it, but the puppy is a fine animal. The puppy's cute. Kind of looks like your little ace yeah we literally were like ace's cousin isn't it yeah like almost the same breed
Starting point is 00:07:32 i don't know if it's the same breed it it's hard to see from the photo but like it could be a doodle kind of or a multi-poo or poodle mix of some sort dude you know the dude the doodle abides that's what we know oh he also had a he also had a uh-oh dressing it in a dude sweater from the doodle abides all right anyway i'm giving out free ip like it's fucking christmas uh and we're moving on to the next trend uh california california christmas is the number eight trending topic on google right now and i was like oh is this about how we're rocking christmas in california no it's the shitty fucking holiday movie i watched last night on netflix i got duped and i watched this nonsense this okay i want to tell you something and it's not just you
Starting point is 00:08:27 anna who's aggressively not wanting to hear me go on another holiday ramp but to the zeitgang i'm here i'm listening i love holiday movies i love to fucking watch like a zone the fuck out and put that out there and just say you know what oh great it's the holidays there's christmas trees and whatever and the white people end up together fantastic life goes on love it but this movie said a california christmas i go okay i'm from california let me see what this is about this movie has a fuck all to do with christmas it's about a dude who's like a wealthy hotelier who's like mom who runs the company saying hey go dupe these farm people out of their land parcel of land so we can build some other property and like but you got to trick him into selling and he shows up at this ranch to to like convince this woman to sell or her family to sell
Starting point is 00:09:09 and in it like the the moment he gets there and look i'm gonna just spoil the whole film i mean i didn't finish it because i realized this wasn't a christmas film there's this woman is like delivering a baby calf like from a cow birth like in a like a pen or whatever and someone goes hey new ranch hand okay give us a hand and he's like oh i'm the like so he realizes oh shit maybe i shouldn't say i'm the wealthy hotel guy i'm the new ranch hand and it's like prince and the pauper type shit the real ranch hand like is in cahoots with him to help him act like a poor laborer it's all kinds of stupid. And there's nothing to do. I didn't see aside from saying, like referencing a
Starting point is 00:09:47 Christmas party, the aesthetic is not Christmas. Oh. They're like, the holiday season just happens to be the time where we screw over these ranchers. Yeah. And again, there's no, I mean, I got in 45
Starting point is 00:10:03 almost an hour deep in that film without seeing a single twinkling light or any of that shit. Uh-uh. Sorry. And I don't know why it's trending. I hope it's for people with as much time as me to get angry about that shit. And last but not least, it's like I'm manifesting things. And it's like i'm manifesting things and it's like the secret works it's like all i have to do is just picture me doing a podcast with prince harry about call september 15th 1984 the podcast
Starting point is 00:10:35 and then it happens because the announcement has come forth uh megan markle and prince harry have signed a fucking podcast deal to do like a whole slate of shows or they're going to be producing shit so they are uh yeah they've signed up with netflix and spotify so they're kind of doing an obama spotify got them yeah well what about i heart spotify's cutting checks we didn't come through if i had no look known, look, if I had known, I would have been there. It would have been done and dusted. It would have been done and fucking dusted. I would have said, hey, man, come through. Let's hang out, bro.
Starting point is 00:11:11 I feel like we get each other. Let's set up a call. And if you're listening now, Harry, it's not too late. Let me know what the sunset is on your deal because maybe we can work something out. And, you know, maybe this is corporate espionage. Maybe it isn't. But I love hearing that they're going to podcasts what are they gonna do talk about how stoked they are to be not in england well yes and then they're probably gonna be like and so we're parents and um we love it i don't know what else they do. What else do they do?
Starting point is 00:11:46 I legit, I wouldn't like a whole podcast called Harry tries. And it's like a, it's a try guys, Buzzfeed ripoff, but it's about the Prince of the fucking Prince. It's Harry doing a bunch of wild shit. Like we do Molly,
Starting point is 00:12:01 we eat mushroom chocolates and go to Joshua tree. Uh, we get fucking just super faded and walk through a best buy and just be like yo like what would you buy for 600 bucks go and just you know do stuff like that cool stuff with me my friend harry you know i would listen will you produce it uh no i don't have time to produce it, but I will listen. That's fair. Okay, that's fair. Turn you down so hard. No, that's fair. No, no, honestly, I'm really busy. But I will listen while I walk my dog.
Starting point is 00:12:33 Oh, thank you so much. Again, if anybody has any kind of connection, I'm willing to speak to them because I would like to know them. And I think Montecito sounds really cool, like where rich oprah lives that's a vibe that's a vibe living in montecito anyway and uh you're gonna go watch the bachelor tonight bachelorette rather oh honey you know i always do i've i've been you know last night was tough because i had bachelor and Below Deck. Don't spoil. Don't spoil because I haven't seen last night. I won't spoil. But I'm just saying like I just watched so much TV. I watched three hours of TV that I technically had to take notes for.
Starting point is 00:13:13 So that was like so much work. And that's like after I spend a whole day working. I'm like, all right, now I get to sit down and work some more. Right. I created my life. I'm a television recapper. Yeah. Never ends.
Starting point is 00:13:32 We do it for y'alls, you know, and for us, really. Let's be real. Like, I'll talk about this shit no matter what. So might as well put a microphone in front of me. With that said, thank you all for listening to this trending episode you know we're coming fucking heavy tomorrow we gotta guess that you might be like oh what why did they go on their show uh they're too big to go on that show but uh we will see well pretty pretty good so we learned that they they were a fan so it was it wasn't too hard to book them.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Yeah. Also, I've known this person for a while. Me and this person go back because they used to do my Bachelor podcast a lot. Woo! And also, you're a henchman, so I don't know what you said or what kind of photos you sent to coerce the appearance, but I appreciate you, and I thank you, and I honor you, and Hosniye. But yeah, check out tomorrow's episode and with that, you know, take care of yourselves
Starting point is 00:14:28 and, you know, stay safe. Just a little bit longer, man. The vaccine, it will happen, so don't, just be safe, man. Don't fuck around right now. We got this. Well, I actually suggested a plan where at the end, when you get vaccinated, you get to join other people who've been vaccinated.
Starting point is 00:14:44 We all run through, like, the end of a marathon and everyone cheers you on like, yeah, come on. And then you join that group. And every time someone gets vaccinated, they come through and then you join that group and you cheer on the other people who come through. And that is my marathon vaccine plan idea thing. It's approved you so much fda approved approved uh also approved we need vaccine marathon finish lines can i just give one last television recommendation for your holidays yeah hey guys look you know i love any reality tv and guess what i love foreign reality tv that's right any reality tv that hits closer to home because it has foreign folk and or immigrants because that is my home life and what I've grown up with.
Starting point is 00:15:31 Culturally, I'm different, if you will. People of color. People of color. So there's a new reality show on Netflix. And hey, before I also say this, I'm fully aware of the issues of colorism and caste systems and kind of oppression that goes on in the country of India I watch this with all this aware in my mind but there is a show called the fabulous lives of Bollywood wives showcasing the lives of these rich and famous well they're married to rich and famous men but they are also famous for their own rights, like jewelry, fashion, or even former actors in India. And their husbands are Bollywood actors. And yes, you have to be fully aware
Starting point is 00:16:13 there is a lot going on in India. So when you watch this, be aware, these women live in extreme privilege. But it's very entertaining. Extreme privilege. It's very entertaining for what it is. It's the same way I watched Real Housewives in America. Because this is, it for what it is. It's the same way I watched, you know, Real Housewives in America. You know, this is, it is what it is.
Starting point is 00:16:28 You want to see how they get down? Yeah, you want to see what's up. I mean, Real Housewives, we're just watching, you know, white supremacists with extensions cough on each other. Exactly. Exactly. So I do want to recommend that show. I think it's quite entertaining.
Starting point is 00:16:42 And I think it's very interesting to see how um it's almost like a real housewives of india and i i just enjoy it and i recommend it check it out see how other cultures live their lives and experience and then you know read up on caste systems in india and how these things work and uh uh you'll see there's a lot of certain similarities like in this country and so check that out i like that it's look it's hard to be a aware reality tv watcher. Yeah, it's tough. Because you can't just be like, yeah, that show rocks
Starting point is 00:17:07 and then be like, well, but it's against a backdrop culturally. There's context to this. Like even when I try and watch 90 Day, I'm like, damn, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:15 it's a little bit different from this country or whatever. But you know what? We have to compartmentalize because for some of us, reality TV is all we have. You know, just be aware and, you know, understand what you're watching in the context and maybe like why some people would not like it.
Starting point is 00:17:31 Because it shows a certain world that clearly does not acknowledge certain class and social situations that should be acknowledged. Again, it is tough to be a woke reality tv watcher like myself oh my god where is my uh stamp of approval time to be my nose ring anyway thank you so much uh be good to each other you know check that out check whatever maybe check out california christmas in california it's not a christmas movie and if watch it and try and tell me how this shit is a christmas movie because if if if you're saying because there's a party at the end, no. It needs to be snow and twinkly lights and fucking Santa shit and, you know, gingerbread and all that shit. I need that.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Anyway, with that, take care of yourselves. Take care of each other. Kick white supremacy in the ass. See you later. Bye-bye. Bye. Kay hasn't heard from her sister in seven years. I have a proposal for you.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Come up here and document my project. All you need to do is record everything like you always do. What was that? That was live audio of a woman's nightmare.
