Starting point is 00:01:59 Hello, the internet, and welcome to this episode of the Weekly Zeitgeist. These are some of our favorite segments from this week, all edited together into one nonstop infotainment laughstravaganza. Yeah. So without further ado, here is the Weekly Zeitgeist. Guys, what is something that is underrated? Hot take.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Talking to some boomers. Okay. Dude, what? You talk to boomers? What the fuck? I was looking to see if there was like a spreadsheet of like different like services like this in different areas i haven't been able to find a lot but there's a service in my area where they're basically like looking for volunteers to call
Starting point is 00:02:55 um seniors and just check in on them and be like hey do you need do you need like uh groceries delivered or prescriptions delivered and just like setting them up with services? But I've been talking to a lot of L.A. area boomers. I've been having a lovely time. I've been having. Yeah. Yeah. It's making.
Starting point is 00:03:13 I've been doing it for like whatever the hour before we start recording in the mornings. And it's been so nice. I've had I've had some some cutie pie conversations, had some scary ones, too. There was like a guy yesterday that was like, millennials need to be drafted. Also, will you please deliver prescriptions to my home? I was like, no and yes. Need to be drafted into the military?
Starting point is 00:03:35 To deliver your prescriptions. Well, his thing was, I don't know. There was like a very, I like just put on my like auntie uncle goggles um with communicating but it's like his thing was like uh that he was drafted in nom and so he's like you've been drafted to your couch and you're still fucking it up i was like damn i was like damn that is like not untrue there is i mean look at runyon canyon we're out here fucking it up so anyways learning all sorts but it's it's been it's been lovely if you can find
Starting point is 00:04:11 a local group that's doing a service like that i feel like more people should be doing it but this is the only one that i've seen what did you have to what did you have to search to find that information like for someone in their area if they were trying to look for that like what did you look for exactly i i follow a bunch of like local coalitions for like the elderly and the homeless so i've just been like checking their instagrams every day and normally they'll post like a post or something in their instagram stories if like an affiliated uh organization is looking for volunteers so i just found it through like a homeless coalitions Instagram. So I kind of looked into it. You're really like plugged into the good person scene.
Starting point is 00:04:52 I feel like. I don't got shit. Scene of people who are kind. First of all, I'm flexing. Second of all, I don't got shit to do. Like there,
Starting point is 00:05:00 there's never, there never been a better time to do, to do nice things from your home. because I don't have shit to do. Second of all, I was actually phone banking for Bernie the whole time. Second of all, I was like, listen, I know that California already voted Bernie, but let me just spread the good word again. Yeah. No, this is, and talking to boomers is great. I mean, everyone, like I loved phone banking for bernie uh but i but it's
Starting point is 00:05:27 you know when you're offering something and not asking for something people are so much nicer to you it's great yeah the it's interesting as a generation boomers were kind of the first generation that was uh able to dodge the draft and uh we've elected three boomer presidents out of the last four presidents, all of whom dodged the draft. We were drafted to the couch and we're fucking it up. You were drafted to your couch? What does that even mean?
Starting point is 00:05:57 It was the best old head. We were all drafted to our couch, Jack. Some people are out here at Runyon Canyon draft dodging. We've probably talked about this already, but everything's a blur now. But we've talked about the fact that the young people on the beaches are Gen Z and not millennials, right? In Florida. In Florida, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:22 But I think the Runyon Canyon culprits are are millennial heavy i see i've seen him all every generation is fucking up yeah all of them oh yeah dude when i went down pch i don't again time's a blur but i saw like a full-on like biker meetup at neptune's restaurant of like 45 motorcycles and they were all just hanging out together drinking beers. I'm like, y'all are fucking up. Bye-bye. Vroom vroom. This is why we're gonna lose the good stores that are left.
Starting point is 00:06:54 This is why we're gonna lose all the good stores that are still open. Come on. Yeah. And were those bikers mostly like young 18-year-olds with neck tattoos? Nah, neck tattoos they were all like they were all full-on like midlife crisis sing it up like oh gen x and boomers yeah and it was like definitely it was kind of the thing where like you know people who try and act like they're in like
Starting point is 00:07:18 motorcycle clubs and like look like they're patched in or something into a motorcycle gang but like you look at this shit and you're like, bro, y'all, okay, this is your writing club. But they want to put out the vibes like I'll beat you to death with a chain. It was like that, like the Malibu version of those people. You can tell they got all their gear at the same gift shop.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Yeah, exactly. This is the section where we talk about what we're using to distract us from all the awful shit that we just talked about okay so i know that we've we've been dunking on celebs a lot i agree they're the worst but right now they're really kind of all we got in terms of funny things that are happening. My buddy, Kevin Porter, who is the co-host of the Good Christian Fun podcast, former co-host of Gilmore Guys, made an excellent thread over the weekend saying that he would give $2 to the LA Food Bank for every unhinged story about Ellen DeGeneres behind the scenes they could find. And he ended up having to donate $600.
Starting point is 00:08:33 So there were just so many. I think that, I mean, shouts out to Dakota Johnson for reminding the people that Ellen DeGeneres is high key a monster. But here, I just wanted to share some of my favorites from the thread I like lost two hours of my life to this and I couldn't be happier so here are some responses that I loved uh okay uh Nick Weiger icon says uh friend was a PA on her show and got their first staff writer job and put in notice instead of congrats was told to give their christmas gift back oh my gosh um karen kilgariff was her head writer for five years
Starting point is 00:09:13 until the writer's strike when karen wouldn't cross the picket line she was fired and ellen never spoke to her again oh okay here's here's a great one this was back in the day when she was sporting her carson era mullet we were in gym and doing crunches as we would commonly do to start the class ellen riffed a loud fart and tried to blame it on me just like the most chaotic evil possible she has a sensitive nose so everyone has to chew gum from a bowl outside her office before talking to her and if she thinks you smell that day you have to go home and shower um oh my god it's just there's so there's so there's the way that she treats wait staff is nightmare uh her staff members are not allowed to be in the same room as her.
Starting point is 00:10:05 I love it. I love it. You know, I expect nothing less from Ellen DeGeneres. It's also funny to see in that thread, too, where people are like caping for her. And like, you know, why don't you talk about some of the good things she's done? And it's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we get that. Like, that's all out there. That's the public facing part of it. That's the part she wants you to know or wants you to think is there but it's funny but i get it too
Starting point is 00:10:29 i think people if depending on how close you are to the actual production you know it's easier for i think especially for people in la or near like the industry to see like oh yeah that's a fucked up thing that i can see 100 happening in this town town. And other people are like, oh, she couldn't be that bad. Ellen is also one of those celebrities that historically just has such a... What is it like with celebrities that adopt pets and then the pets disappear? Like, that is a thing. That was another story in this thread. Like, Ellen, supposed animal lover, has a bad habit of adopting really cute kittens and puppies but
Starting point is 00:11:05 as they get older she gets tired of them and forces other people to adopt them uh Lena Dunham has had some disappearing dogs Julianne Hough has had some disappearing dogs celebrities I don't know but they're making me laugh yeah yeah I mean what what better way to entertain yourself while also getting an unavoidable snapshot of the system that we're talking about? Hearing Ellen that she gets a cat and when it gets a little too old out of the cute phase, she just gets rid of it reminds, I think, Jack and I a lot of one Joe Exotic. Joe Exotica. Holy shit, you guys. Tiger King on Netflix. think jack and i a lot of one joe exotic joe exotic holy shit you tiger king on netflix um i'm gonna like we should we should give you guys some time to get caught up but yeah everyone please do so so we can talk in detail about this the characters are mind-boggling there's a guy who was arrested for being uh i think florida's
Starting point is 00:12:08 largest cocaine dealer ever uh and he sold drugs to support his exotic animal habit like that says that literally and uh he runs a super secretive private zoo use smuggling methods he learned from drugs to smuggle the animals and he's like the sixth most interesting character in the like they just use him as like a quick anecdote i would love to like run down the characters but even doing that it takes away from the experience of watching it because it's like it's like you're looking at a rotten onion with like a bunch of fireworks shooting out of it. And you're like, I think I know what this is.
Starting point is 00:12:46 It's a fucking weird ass onion with fires shooting out of it. And then you start peeling it away and you're like, oh, my God, what the fuck is inside of this thing? The outside was like enough to get me in. But now I'm like blinded by the truth within this thing. It's unbelievable. It's so entertaining. It's like a combination of like a Christopher Guest doc, mockumentary and true crime and the jinx yeah yeah it's yes yeah you can't just tell me something's as good as the jinx i don't take that lightly
Starting point is 00:13:18 okay the jinx was a christopher guest mockumentary yeah that's what it is yeah it's it's i mean there's like one episode where they just unleash this amazing mystery that you're like wait what the fuck and then like one episode is like yeah one of the one episode it must be a dateline episode too like one of the episodes just plays out like they you know there's like the sort of momentum of the narrative arc of the actual series but then at one point they're like we really need to take this whole episode to talk about this one person's life really quick just so you can understand what the grumblings are about this person and when you watch you're like i but uh but it's it's also interesting my my wife and i were talking about like how like these people would be fortune 500
Starting point is 00:14:09 ceos or like the president or you know dangerous cult leader well i guess they are kind of cult leaders you find out but like if they were born to you know in a different situation they're incredibly intelligent they're incredibly intelligent. They're incredibly just great at manipulating people, charismatic. Great at identifying people who can be manipulated as well.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Yes. Like true predators. Yeah, they're unbelievable. Good band name. True predators. Give me two days days i'll be ready yeah yeah yeah we can i mean i'm not even all the way through it i don't know if it ends with the jinx probably had the best ending of any any true crime documentary series of all time and now and now we're gonna have to wait till coronavirus is blown over to find out if robert durst i can't
Starting point is 00:15:03 be prosecuted for a crime if I was high on meth argument is going to hold up in court. A lot of people are waiting to see how that goes. Could set a lot of precedents down the road. Yeah. I feel like it might set a precedent for the people in Tiger King because that's another thing it has in common is face twitching on meth. Just describe very generally, if you don't even know what tiger king is it's a netflix documentary about this beef that goes on between people who privately own tigers and show them and breed them and like have petting zoos and this other side of the spectrum which is namely one woman who wants to rescue them but the question begs are this is this really the same coin?
Starting point is 00:15:46 Is this even two sides of the same coin? Is it the same side of one coin? Yeah, it's got something for everyone. Animal lovers, comedy lovers, true crime lovers. If you like bad country music and cringeworthy music videos, it's all there. I'm in. All right, great.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Let's talk real quick. We always have to get an update from a celebrity who has had the quarantine affect their life. Don't believe the stories that Jared Leto has started a cult during the quarantine. He started a cult before the quarantine and is currently uh doing social distancing like he should so uh that that's an old story that again is just getting regurgitated
Starting point is 00:16:33 because yeah slow news he didn't know about coronavirus because he was with his cult okay okay exactly now he knows and he's keeping social distance from his cult that he's had for a while now. Okay? But Jeremy Renner, on the other hand, is really the Jared Leto of the Marvel Universe. Jeremy Renner. What's going on with Jeremy Renner, guys? You got to tell the people dude all right so
Starting point is 00:17:07 apparently he knew 2020 was about to be a fucking lean year for him because he's done with the avengers shit well his hawkeyes series was almost canceled because of some allegations but then i think it was uncanceled but now it's recanceled i don't know so he's basically saying between look dude i wasn't gonna be working much this year even though i was in some of the biggest films ever on paper uh i just this goddamn alimony and child support is too damn much for me judge you gotta ease up on me i think he's paying around 30 000000 a month for his child that goes to his ex-wife. But he's just saying, now that these other productions are holding up, I think $11,000 is probably a better amount for my little child.
Starting point is 00:17:57 So I don't know. I don't know, Judge. You tell me. But I think that's fair. It's such a weird discussion to begin with because you're just like, 11? But then you're just like, no, take Jeremy Renner's money away from him. Something I think is interesting
Starting point is 00:18:12 is that Jeremy Renner's ex-wife's name is Sunny, which can't be a coincidence. I think my dog is scamming Jeremy Renner out of $19,000 a month. Just was wearing lipstick and a wig for their guy. He's like, you're going to need $30,000. Sorry. The needs have changed.
Starting point is 00:18:34 I don't know. What do you think? You know that Jeep didn't re-up his music contract? Is that the situation? Are you kidding me? How much do you think he got paid for this Jeep thing? That's why I'm like, if I'm Sonny Pacheco, his ex's lawyer, I'm going to the judge.
Starting point is 00:18:49 I go, your honor, this motherfucker had an app last year. This dude was popping last year. Have you heard his single Nomad? It slaps. Just play the Jeep commercials and you will be unable to play the one especially the one where he leaves a black tie event and uh drives his jeep out to a concert that has spontaneously formed for him they just kind of had a feeling he was gonna not think that that black tie party was lame uh i but jeremy renner i think is a talented actor but i would put him also in the category of i don't know the town he was pretty
Starting point is 00:19:33 good i thought i i've always the town you didn't think he was good in the town went to the premiere of the fucking town at fenway park. Oh, shit. The cathedral? The cathedral, bro? Yeah, we call it fucking church, okay? Mr. Renner, I just want to tell you, despite what's happening in the world and the economy, you still do have an obligation to pay your child support at Alamo. Yeah, I understand. I understand, Your Honor, but I'm just telling you right now,
Starting point is 00:20:02 my income is just so unpredictable i gotta tell you that was worth it very worth it uh past uh zeitgeist zeit guest uh johnny pemberton and i did some some renner bits a while back and we were just going we were going through we focused on his single nomad which is underrated i think um yeah but we were just going we were going through we focused on his single Nomad which is underrated I think everybody knows Heaven ain't got no name or something Heaven don't have a name even though
Starting point is 00:20:33 they say the name in the title the lyrics to Nomad it literally sounds like it was generated by a PG rated machine where it's just like if this world is a circle ooh I got no time for them squares
Starting point is 00:20:49 2 plus 2 must equal I don't care yeah I'll jump off the edge to get me there like it's just it's just the most bullshit it's about nothing I'm a nomad oh man about nothing. Hell yeah, King. I'm a nomad.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Oh man. Renner. Good to have him back. Good to have him back on TDZ. back in the mix. I need some Renner AKs. All right, guys,
Starting point is 00:21:16 let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. I've been thinking about you. I want you back in my life. It's too late for that. I have a proposal for you. Come up here and document my project. All you need to do is record everything like you always do.
Starting point is 00:21:36 One session. 24 hours. BPM 110. 120. She's terrified. Should we wake her up? Absolutely not. What was that?
Starting point is 00:21:49 You didn't figure it out? I think I need to hear you say it. That was live audio of a woman's nightmare. This machine is approved and everything? You're allowed to be doing this? We passed the review board a year ago. We're not hurting people. There's nothing dangerous about what you're doing.

Starting point is 00:24:32 and of course, lucha libre. It doesn't get more Mexican than this. Lucha libre is known globally because it is much more than just a sport and much more than just entertainment. Lucha libre is a type of storytelling. It's a dance. It's tradition.

Listen to Lucha Libre Behind the Mask as part of My Cultura Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you stream podcasts. And we're back. What is something we think is underrated? Cream of mushroom soup.
Starting point is 00:25:36 Cream of mushroom soup. Oh, hard to disagree. Cream of mushroom soup. The reason I'm saying it is because it's the great ingredient. It can help you make a sauce. You can fucking somehow turn some chicken breasts into a creamy thing. It just allows for a lot more flexibility. Yeah, like a creamy thing.
Starting point is 00:25:58 You want a little creamy. Yeah, yeah. You want a little creamy. That's why. And look, most people know that. If you're Midwest casserole gang, obviously, it's most people know that if you're midwest casserole gang obviously it's like having you know there's no it's part of the genetic code of a casserole is cream of mushroom soup but i'm like when i go to the store i'm like okay i'm gonna get that because i can
Starting point is 00:26:14 turn up nearly any dish with a little bit of herbs and cream of mushroom soup my mom makes a uh fully cursed but delicious uh american quesadilla that is just a bunch of... I mean, she doesn't call it American quesadilla, but the ingredients are flour tortillas, cheese, and cream of chicken soup. That's it.
Starting point is 00:26:38 Boom. Nailed it. And then some chilies mixed in there. But it's basically a combination casserole slash quesadilla. Oh, like an enchilada it's like but it's yeah just stacks of stacks of cheese and uh this is fucking great on our next um grocery store run i'm gonna try to get the ingredients for i think i've even talked about this recipe yeah well to call it a recipe is a stretch um but my mom's taco salad that was just like a bag of doritos all mushed up and then you put hamburger meat on it and then you put shredded cheese on it
Starting point is 00:27:14 and then you put half a bottle of catalina dressing and then you heat it up half a bottle of catalina dressing yeah that's a critical ingredient. What is Catalina dressing? Holy shit. What is Catalina dressing? It's kind of sweet and sour-y. I don't really know how to describe it. But it's just, I thought for at least a decade that that's what taco salad was. Because that's what she called it.
Starting point is 00:27:39 But it's just a bag of Doritos and meat. But it's good. Yeah, I'm curious to see how many people are reverting to these arcane family recipes that they grew up with. They're like, I think this is how my mom made it. I've done a few things trying to be like, I think this is how my grandma made it. Shit like that. And I'm like, I don't know who to call because some people are passed away and don't have that information anymore. But I'm sure there's a lot of improvised chefs going on.
Starting point is 00:28:03 My poor kids are getting a lot of, when it's daddy's time to make dinner, they're getting a lot of the cheese flats, which is just a tortilla with cheese. Nice. My dad called them cheese roll-ups so that it sounded like a Taco Bell menu item. There you go. Yeah, a little bit of ground beef.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Cheese rollers? Yeah. Yeah, a little cheese rollers. One company that's not sitting this shit out. Oh, yeah. My boys at Mountain Dew. Holy shit. They are like- The air guitaring league of the United States.
Starting point is 00:28:39 Dude, MTN Dew is a fuck. They told COVID-19, fuck you, pussy. The dew ain't going to stop doing what it do. And they are set to release a new flavor that literally, I can't believe. This looks like the Venn diagram of where Jack O'Brien is the middle. It's Mountain Dew with a fucking great white shark on it called Mountain Dew Frostbite. It looks like Jaws coming out of the fucking ice like some fucked up sequel. It's Mountain Dew with a fucking great white shark on it called Mountain Dew Frostbite. It looks like Jaws coming out of the fucking ice like some fucked up sequel.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Yeah. And Jack, this is the flavor for you, but you can only get it at Walmart. So you've got to get to Walmart if you want this blue dew. You got to get COVID if you want to get the dew. I feel like the way that this product got on the market was just that someone was like talking to a mountain dew representative and they have their fucking goatees or whatever and then they're like and the the mountain dew okay here's my here's how i picture it mountain dew guy is like yeah so like we're not gonna you know introduce any new products during the covid19 outbreak so and then someone was just like, what are you fucking
Starting point is 00:29:46 scared? And then that's why they're releasing this. Oh wow, they just got pumped into it. I think I'm a fucking pussy. I'll put a fucking shark on the bottle, dog. And then this comes out. Yeah. I mean, I
Starting point is 00:30:01 cannot not go out and buy this so uh yeah catch me at oh at the walmart in the i don't know what the nearest walmart is probably the one in the valley uh no there's one sure yeah yeah there's one uh yeah there's one over by you but um that i but the flavor is what kind of is a little weird. It's a burst of icy refreshment. Fucking duh. But with a cool melon flavor. Ew. What kind of melon?
Starting point is 00:30:36 I don't like that. I don't know. Shark melon? Although, shark melon. Great white piss. It's like great white piss in your mouth. Great white piss. But you want to know what shark piss tastes like,
Starting point is 00:30:54 but you're probably like, wait, how could you know? Because they swim in water already. Well, crack open a bottle of Mountain Dew Frostbite shark piss. bite shark piss um it i mean the mountain dew should never try to approximate anything right like code red code red is not like it's not like they're like a berry flavor it's just it's code red bro it's code red you know it when you taste it. Their greatest flavor, Sierra Mist. Or not Sierra Mist. What is it?
Starting point is 00:31:31 Baja Blast? Baja Blast. Oh. Blast. Oh, I could go for a Baja Blast right now. I could too. Yeah. Well, Code Red is, I think, theirs except with what they say has a kick of cherry.
Starting point is 00:31:44 That's how they do it. Then there's Voltage. It's due charged with raspberry, citrus, and ginseng. Charged. Did you guys ever drink Surge? I miss Surge. Hell yeah, I drank Surge. Oh, man, I remember when Surge came out, in LA, there used to be this thing called Clipper Night
Starting point is 00:32:00 where local elementary schools could play on the sports arena basketball court before a Clippers NBA game. And around the time, I think Keith Kloss was playing right before he got jumped outside of a nightclub for any NBA fans out there. They were promoting Surge and handing it out by the case to teenage kids leaving a fucking Clipper game and we were getting on a bus and our teachers were like only take one bottle of surge only take one can of surge and we're like fuck you miss Harrison I'm blowing up my motherfucking bag oh it was
Starting point is 00:32:31 it was glorious whenever they make the TV show about mad men for our era that's like one of the scenes the surge guys there is I remember there was like one of my cousins told us and I think that he thought it was true. I was getting Surge from whatever, like a Burger King soda machine.
Starting point is 00:32:50 And he's like, you know that Surge is just all the other sodas mixed together and dyed green. And he was like, you can just make Surge at your house by mixing together all the other sodas. That's definitely not true. And I had heard that about Dr. Pepper. Oh, really? Oh, that makes more sense because it's at least supposed to have multiple flavors. No, my cousin thought it was like green piss
Starting point is 00:33:16 on top of all the other sodas. Shrek piss. The commercials equated it to like having a substance abuse problem. Like the first commercial, I remember because it was so out of this fucking world. I remember all of our friends would be like, Surge! Screaming it because in the, I don't know if you remember this commercial.
Starting point is 00:33:35 It's vivid. This dude has a bottle of Surge and he puts it like on the back of a couch. And then there's like a group of like 10 horny like 20 year old dudes who are like frothing at the mouth for this bottle of surge but like there's an obstacle course of like bombed out couches that they have to like steeplechase over to get to the bottle and once the guy places the bottle he screams out at the top of his fucking lungs and then the guys fucking run to try and get the bottle and the one dude who gets it he's not even drinking he's like throwing it in the air like he's like i got the fucking
Starting point is 00:34:10 just holding it it's like a combination of meth and the ring from uh lord of the rings hold it and feel its power you know mad men for for the early aughts would be so funny. We want to check in with the guys who made the Gusher campaign where kids' heads turned into full-ass strawberries. Yeah. Like, yeah, what's that guy's story? Is he cheating on his wife? For sure he is.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. The guy who came up with the idea of the red bull women who like go around and give out red bull on college campuses oh right like one of this one of the characters is a red bull woman who then like becomes an ad copywriter because she's really great really smart oh oh my god oh my god hold. Keep these ideas inside. We got a little writer's room we can go into. Well, that's just Peggy's storyline updated. Well, yeah, but it's like if we gave Peggy like ombre hair and like a graphic tee that
Starting point is 00:35:15 said 99% angel, 1% devil, we're in business. And it's played by Elizabeth Moss again. It's still Elizabeth Moss. Elizabeth Moss is wilding out on some weirdo parts right now. She'd do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. She's such a good actor. She's great.
Starting point is 00:35:36 Yeah. By the way, guys, I have some bad news for me. Baja Blast is not just Baja Blast flavored. It is actually a tropical lime flavor. Which is bullshit. It isn't. Idiot. All Mountain Dew flavors are bullshit. Yeah. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:35:55 I appreciate them keeping the scam up though and being like, no, it definitely you taste it? You taste the cherry in there? Oh, yeah. Tropical lime isn't even a fruit oh i'm down in baja california man you know the tropical lime down here it's the same color as the water at many golf courses exactly another uh underrated i had was was if you have them, watching your childhood videos. We started doing that yesterday.
Starting point is 00:36:30 I have a mini DV disc of my 16th birthday party. Oh, wow. I need to figure out how to digitize it, but I'm going to be dropping some hot clips going to be dropping some, some hot clips, some deep cuts, there's a, there's a shot of my mom doing a slow zoom on my first slow dance with a boy in the church basement.
Starting point is 00:36:55 And my mom, and you can, she's like narrating it. She was like, Andrew Stadensky, she was hoping for this. Oh no. Wow. So brutal. Um, studensky she was hoping for this like oh no wow so brutal um so if you have like a fun home video my mom like she has the most cursed narration track to anything any life event and they're
Starting point is 00:37:20 on like this for so long there's like four different formats that went across my childhood like started a VHS and then she switched to like mini DV tapes or whatever the fuck that was and then tiny DVDs and then full size DVDs and so there
Starting point is 00:37:37 there's a lot of formats but it's like I've got time to digitize and there's so many fucked up things that happened a buddy of mine has a mini dv deck oh because we used to make so many fucking bullshit movies as kids on mini dv and like he's an editor that like he back when people still shot shit on mini dv had and he like dusted it off and we started digitizing all kinds of wacky shit that we were making. But let's, let's connect.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Let me help you digitize that. Yeah. So you can start cutting. You can give us the cut with adult eyes, birthday party, super cut. I really want to see that. She's wanted this.
Starting point is 00:38:21 She's wanted this for so long. You should, That would be a good, like just you start a YouTube channel where it's you commenting on your childhood videos. Oh, and then do one of those like curse thumbnails where it's like, Jamie reacts
Starting point is 00:38:38 and I'm like, oh! That's right. Baby Jamie tries what? And it's just me with my jaw unhinged that's all youtube thumbnail yeah or you have you need the one like home alone with your hands pressed against the side of your face like why do those work i don't know yeah i don't know we we all just can't stop clicking on them can we folks uh guys let's talk about a this list uh from mcclatchy uh of items that people are not desperate enough to hoard this is also this list kind of is also indicating sort of another thing i was talking about is like we're running out of content to talk about.
Starting point is 00:39:27 Like with everything slowing down, there's also there's we're like such a content focused culture that, you know, the paparazzi business is tanking right now because there are no people. There are no famous people who are living outside of the walls to take photos of where we can pretend that that's the world we want to be in. So now it's just basically celebrities have been reduced to the same lifestyle as every person, which is, I guess, just with a nicer house or background. But like on McClatchy, I had seen like articles here and there or like tweets of people like saying like, oh, look at this shit in my grocery store. No one's touching this or this or this. tweets of people like saying like, oh, look at this shit in my grocery store. No one's touching this or this or this. Like McClatchy, who does like really great journalism, sort of had to venture into like, let's scrape some stuff together to get an article out there. What aren't they doing? Yeah. But again, fantastic article because some of the things I'm like, I saw this on a list
Starting point is 00:40:19 from last week, but then there's some new ones. So the region-specific ones are great. So, for example, across the board, it seems like even from Canada to Scotland to parts of the United States, vegan hot dogs are pretty much readily available for anyone seeking them. If you are in San Francisco in particular, the cauliflower-based mac and cheese, fully stocked.
Starting point is 00:40:42 There was a photo of that. No one even touched one box of cauliflower mac and cheese fully stocked there was a photo of that like no one even touched one box of cauliflower mac and cheese and i had some cauliflower based rice risotto last night out of our freezer and it was pretty good so don't don't sleep on the cauliflower stuff guys no i like cauliflower rice but i think just when they start making things like that are we're used to being full on like mac like like craft mac and cheese like it was craft mac and cheese but oh with cauliflower it wasn't just like a call it was just the craft so most people they want respect for the as full-blown gluten as possible at the culture yeah the other one in boston cans and cans of manhattan clam chowder left on the shelves.
Starting point is 00:41:25 Well, what do you fucking think? Oh, you think Manhattan clam chowder is going to solve COVID? COVID-19? I don't fucking think so. Get the fuck out of here, bro. That's just on the grocery stores for bringing Manhattan
Starting point is 00:41:41 clam chowder into Boston. Yeah, you should know better. Yeah, Dasani water is just sitting in certain the grocery stores for bringing manhattan clam chowder into boston uh yeah yeah they're you should know better yeah dasani water is just sitting like in certain costcos because i think people know it's just trash sink water that's in a bottle i i would uh beg to differ dasani is my favorite water you like that purified bullshit yeah that's my favorite man of the bottled waters which uh are all bullshit but and also yeah we're quickly learning fuck fuck bottled water forever too like yeah exactly and it wasn't even like obviously the environmental impacts and things like that but when i fully started looking people load all this heavy ass water. I'm like, bro, no, that should come out the sink.
Starting point is 00:42:26 For free. And it's fine. Water tastes nasty. Oh, my God. Hot take from the squeeze it high sea lobby over there. Everyone says that it tastes like nothing. It tastes like something. And it tastes bad. So you don't drink water?
Starting point is 00:42:42 Is that your new thing you've arrived at? No, I do it now. Big redgingly? But I really make a big deal of it all right i gotta down a cup of shit juice again yeah i fucking choke every time um other things that people saw brussels sprouts may have been not everywhere but in certain places the regional things that were really interesting was in south carolina there were a few shots of people not taking the jugs of unsweet tea, like all this sweet tea was gone. But the gallon jugs of unsweet, they're like, nah, fuck that. Like, I don't even have the time to turn it up with sugar myself, not touching it. And also in North Carolina, now, North Carolina Zeitgang, I think that's you, a few of you, and I won't say your names,
Starting point is 00:43:24 but Duke's mayonnaise was gone. And I guess that's your thing over there, to the point where every other mayonnaise was left on the shelf. They're like, I don't touch Hellman's. It's only Duke's. Duke's Mayonnaise. Hellman's. It's interesting to see those things come out. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:39 Wow. Well, that is content. That counts. That does count. Also, wait, what the fuck is chocolate hummus dude it's just some shit they have at trader joe's i've seen it but i've never even bothered to touch it because the combination of words is an abomination itself yeah i'm like no no no no no yeah that doesn't sound right i mean it just seems like it's emphasizing making some decisions for
Starting point is 00:44:03 these companies right don't you gotta you gotta get rid of this chocolate hummus guys what the fuck yeah i mean and also zeitgang if you're eating chocolate hummus please please let me know why you think it's worth eating it sounds like a joke on everyone right i mean is it is it chickpeas mashed up with like nutella bars with nutella or Hershey bars? I don't know. When I see chocolate hummus, I'm just like, in my mind, it is. Yeah, I have no idea, and I don't care to know.
Starting point is 00:44:34 No, yeah, they are. It is with chickpeas. Hell yeah. Jesus Christ. Chocolate hummus does taste really good, and they basically present it on a platter of fruits and things like that. And then just saying, yeah, made from a standard base of cooked chickpeas, tahini, and expeller-pressed canola oil. A little bit of cocoa.
Starting point is 00:44:57 But it goes with fruit. Pour a big glass of water with that. That's so nasty. I like that they're like, it tastes good. They know that you're going to be shocked by that fact. They're trying to gaslight you at the top and be like, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Look, we get it. This sounds fucking gross. I mean, the way that even the post on it when the product hit the shelves, I guess in August of last year on the trader joe's page it says our customers love chocolate and our customers love hummus but chocolate hummus admittedly we were skeptical the idea of dessert hummus being anything more than interesting seemed
Starting point is 00:45:37 unlikely and while we're all for interesting our products have to actually taste good too like really good and to our great surprise, chocolate hummus does, in fact, taste really good. To our surprise, this doesn't fucking suck. To our surprise, this shit paste tastes like chocolate hummus. This is like that show The Ranch on Netflix, where it was just blindly using data to create something. It's like, well, people like Westerns and
Starting point is 00:46:10 Two and a Half Men, let's make a show that's a combination of those two things. Did y'all watch The Ranch? No. It was bad. I saw maybe the first episode it was it was uh you know it i watched a couple episodes it just was it was so distracting to me of like how clear it was that they were not
Starting point is 00:46:34 on a ranch that's what took me out of it right it was just like they put a couple uh horseshoes up on the set of uh two and a half men they're in like an empty forever 21 in burbank and they just like yeah hung up a horseshoe and they're like all right ashton kutcher try your try a southern accent and he's like oh like it was just brutal oh was totally on board for this show until i realized actually does not take place on a real life ranch it doesn't it should at least look like they might be on a ranch, but they just like parked a truck outside of a forever 21. And they're like,
Starting point is 00:47:11 here it is. It's the ranch. Give us any other examples of, uh, chocolate hummus and the ranch things that are just like clearly based on, uh, data blindly based on data and terrible, uh, godless abominations.
Starting point is 00:47:29 All right, guys, let's take another quick break, and we'll be right back. I've been thinking about you. I want you back in my life. It's too late for that.

Available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. Let's talk about Aaron Paul really quickly. Step away from Corona talk.
Starting point is 00:51:39 This is just so funny to me. You have to. Because like, well, it's just funny. There was like a headline, right? I think it was an AV club or something where it just saysaron paul is interested in playing kurt cobain in a biopic and then when you like actually click the article it's just saying that a few years ago he said that he would like to do like maybe play kurt cobain in a biopic yeah and that was like the whole thing and i'm like wait so the source of this headline is referencing a years-old article in which he merely expressed the desire to play a part there's
Starting point is 00:52:15 no there's nothing in development there's no nothing's been agreed to but it's just like i think it's just more indicative too of like what's happening for a lot of writers too is like events are dwindling to report on yeah now it's like here's a new headline i don't know if you i don't know if you guys remember this but remember when like aaron paul was like he wanted to be kirk cobain anyway that's that part i just think aaron paul is the thirstiest b-lister in the mix. There was a finger wag there, by the way. Well, he just like, everything you, every story about him is just,
Starting point is 00:52:52 he just wants to be talked about. He wants to be kept top of mind. He's like, hey, remember Bojack? Hey, remember Breaking Bad? Like he's literally, he's, I mean, this is like a little bit, we live in a bubble, like aaron paul's out here with his fucking dog at the silver lake halloween dog pageant dressing his dog up in a
Starting point is 00:53:13 breaking bag costume i think he's embarrassing oh wow okay so now we come back to sunny's knife costume sunny uh sunny's knife costume they wouldn't even he wasn't given a chance is what I'll say I feel like that's the real corkboard that the Zeitgang needs to be working on how everything goes back to Sonny's knife costume about Sonny's devastating loss in the 2019
Starting point is 00:53:38 pageant they didn't even when they brought him out they were like and this is Sonny as a knife I was like okay you don't need to say it like that first and anyways aaron paul and i think you know what the problem is that one of the judges was was dressed as joe biden and that's the only reason now you if if it would have been someone that's why sonny tried to have sex with the guy yeah they're well and and i will say it all goes back to the costume the second the second most thirsty celeb in the past uh day of news cycle is um it's aaron
Starting point is 00:54:12 paul thinking about doing something and i think demanding his publicist email someone about it and second is uh josh gad front cry video. You see that? Yeah. I have no patience for Josh Gad. None at all. I'll allow it. People who are going through some shit, I'll allow it.
Starting point is 00:54:36 I find that much more acceptable than the Imagine video from last week. I think that it's going to be very hard to empathize with any celebrity solidarity video until you have it pulled out to a full shot and you see where they are uh it's one thing to have your josh gad front face crying video but then when you see frozen palace behind them you're like i guess i don't care if josh gad is crying right oh i used to get i very fair i okay that's my those are my two b well yeah i mean it's it's go on and i think that's like the pain like there's like multiple dimensions of the struggle
Starting point is 00:55:12 and pain we're all experiencing where it's like you know the human level regardless of how wealthy you are you're gonna feel that and i think that's what josh gad's doing in his videos but then for there met plenty of us who also want to be sobbing too but we're like you know what we kind of need to hold it together to kind of keep surviving here and yeah it's it's tough when you look at somebody like oh you don't have survival on your mind more so than like the hit to your social life and i think i think that's what i hope many of these people can begin and even like myself in certain aspects i just you, I want to be able to acknowledge how fortunate you can be to be able to do some,
Starting point is 00:55:50 maintain some semblance of normalcy throughout this. Um, but yeah, and also think of other people too, and like what they're going through and how you can be a person who pulls somebody up rather than just sort of like looks down and is like, oh, that's fucked up.
Starting point is 00:56:03 Not to be, uh, a gadfly, even though that is what me and other gadfans consider ourselves, call ourselves, but he does say that he's crying on behalf of all the people whose pain he is, you know, empathizing with. Go volunteer at a food pantry, motherfucker. Like, I don't know. Sorry. he is nothing if not an empath uh i just want to say that do you remember when uh rise of skywalker came out
Starting point is 00:56:32 and there was that very cursed marketing video of josh gad being like hey i love star wars daisy ridley star wars is coming out like i just he's Wait, is he in the Rise of Skywalker? I don't even know him. No, he isn't. No, he isn't. He should have been promoting Frozen 2. But instead, he had his publicist email Star Wars and be like, hey, Josh Gad would love to be annoying in a Star Wars thing. And they were like, all right.
Starting point is 00:56:58 Who is he in Frozen? He's Olaf. No! Yes. Yeah. He's a very talented voice actor. I will never downplay josh gad's talents i just think as a human being he's so deeply obnoxious he also one of my favorite this
Starting point is 00:57:12 was something on who weekly uh that they pointed out but um who weekly did a search of josh gad doing um celeb rips and making it about himself uh on twitter and there's like there's like a murderer's like like like for the past 10 years josh gad has been like rips so and so i'll never forget when i met you oh it's so that's an amazing well yeah that's the other talent we've seen the improvisation to survive we've seen out of people. It's like really honing that skill to make even this global pandemic very narrowly about yourself. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:53 And like export that. But, you know. Sure. There's other ways. I think a lot of other people I think are just... Aside from Josh Gad, I don't even know. Like I just hear that name and I never knew who the fuck he was. I like the Josh Gad defense forces out today.
Starting point is 00:58:04 No, I just don't. I'm like, I don't even know who the fuck he is i'm like oh frozen never seen it and i'm like great in the book of mormon he was great in the ashton kutcher jobs movie he's great and pretty much he's great in pixels he's great in pretty much everything but he's annoying much like aaron paul it's like how do we how do we bring an even-handed uh uh adjudication of josh gad's body of work on this show um i i know a lot about him because i'm very fixated on how frustrating i find him yeah well he's reading to he's reading children's books to people or children's books every night that's great i well that is good. I'm glad he's doing something like that. That is a thing that keeps being offered
Starting point is 00:58:48 both from celebrities and from my children's teachers who I love, and God bless them, and they're the best. But why would we need somebody to read our kids' books over livestream when we can... Because we're there when they're on the internet. Why wouldn't we just read them the books? I don't know. That's confusing to me.
Starting point is 00:59:13 Well, it's also like, would you want your teacher to read you a bedtime story? I don't know. Oh, yeah, that'd be weird. One thing I thought was... I usually... I mean, to be fair, my parenting style is usually plopping them down in front of a live stream of Josh Gad.
Starting point is 00:59:28 I mean, I'm glad Josh Gad's doing something for the kids. That's nice. Kids love Olaf. That's good. Yeah. Especially as a child, you'll miss me with that. But Jack, do your kids like those books about the pigeon? The like, don't let the pigeon drive the bus?
Starting point is 00:59:46 Yeah. Oh, yeah. it's like those books about the pigeon that like don't let the pigeon drive the bus yeah oh yeah that i like that author mo willems has been doing like a morning like doodle session with kids that i thought was really cute he is amazing he is our generation seuss or my kids i don't know dude i think that guy is one of the most obnoxious, thirsty, B-list celebrities I have ever seen. This Mo Willis. Mo Willis is good. He didn't post a front-facing cry vid. He's great. Is that a new meme we can do?
Starting point is 01:00:17 Everyone does their own front-facing cry vid? Honestly, it could end up like that where people who are really struggling co-opt this video style to be like no this is what human suffering well there's already been so many like i've in the past 24 hours i've been involved in three celebrity imagine video parodies like people like that's unfortunately just the truth i did one to ari, or no, one to Selena Gomez's Love Me Like a Love song. Did one to Smash Mouth, All Star. Did one to Tubb Fumping. Shout out to McG.
Starting point is 01:00:53 Shout out to McG. I mean, really, would that song have been a big hit without McG? That's a question that McG asks you to ask yourself on a regular basis. What's McG doing for the kids? What's McG doing for the kids? What's he streaming for the kids? Yeah, that's what I think we're all wanting to know just because whatever it is is probably super lit. It's his commercial reel on a fucking loop.
Starting point is 01:01:21 Overcooked 2 is a video game. Oh my God. For the Switch, bro. Yes, this is what I've been talking about what about okay yo i've been playing on playstation network this fucking game is it oh let me tell you if you look first of all i've been playing this with uh my boy ty uh over the internet uh and it's basically a game very simple simple. You're in a kitchen with one other chef or maybe many multiple chefs. But it's very simple. You'll be making maybe one recipe, which is spaghetti. And in that, one chef has to grab a pile of pasta, boil it. Another person has to grab tomatoes and chop it up and then put in a saute pan. And then when
Starting point is 01:02:04 those things are done, you combine them in a plate and then take it to the fucking window to send it out to like the restaurant. But the way it works, it's just like a very fun game because everyone has to be coordinated and you have to communicate. And it's one of those things where it takes up so much of your fucking attention because I love like process anything.
