a lot to figure out when you're just starting your career. That's where we come in. Think of us as your work besties you can turn to for advice. And if we don't know the answer, we bring
in people who do, like negotiation expert Maury Tahiripour. If you start thinking about negotiations
as just a conversation, then I think it sort of eases us a little bit. Listen to Let's Talk

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
greta something from your search history that is revealing about who you are but i have the
problem where like i can't i mean i just i just googled how to take off a boot on a car
wait like a fucking like a tutorial as to how to take off a boot. Okay, so are you not paying your parking tickets?
What's going on?
Well, my friend parked her car on my street.
She got a boot put on it.
She's out of the country.
I was like, you have a boot on your car.
It adds up, too.
Yes, they say on the thing they can just jack up,
which I think is really fucked up the thing they can just jack up, which I think is
really fucked up that they can
just jack up the price.
Rather than taxing people who need to be, they'll hit you with that.
I've had to boot on my car because I had too many
parking tickets. I've given LA
DOT between
tickets and towing
I would say around six grand.
Oh my. I've been towed
12 times. No.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah, remember, I used to tell it.
It's no longer a part of my narrative, okay?
Yeah.
That's not who I am anymore.
Put that outside of you.
I'm a hoe with parking, okay?
But I used to live that life.
And also, I had a boot.
This may be a myth, but I had a boot.
Had to pay to get the boot off.
Then never returned the boot.
Eventually, I threw the boot away.
You kept the boot? I never returned the boot because now we take off the boot, had to pay to get the boot off, then never returned the boot. Eventually, I threw the boot away. You kept the boot? Wait, you never returned
the boot because now we take off the
boot and then it's like they're threatening
you. They're like, you need to return this
boot in 24 hours or else. They have no
way of keeping track. That's what I said.
Wait, hold on. You can take the boot
off yourself? You have to, okay, so
you go to the website, you pay the money
and then they give you a code and then you put the code
in and then you take the boot off. And now they're like, now bring my boot back.
Yeah, but they don't know where they boot at.
And I don't think that they like.
They can't know where the boot is.
And I don't think that they're keeping track of like license plate, boot ID number.
You don't.
No, they are.
Of course they do.
How can they give you a code to take it off unless they know where it is?
Because the thing is, is the code on the boot is set like, okay, so yeah, they know what's
going to your car.
They know the VIN number, but they're not keeping track of where the boot is set like, okay, so yeah, they know what's going to your car. They know the VIN number, but they're not keeping track of where the boot is.
But they know where the boot,
they know the boot,
they know that the boot,
that boot is with that car.
Do you know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
And sure,
they can't like track where your car is,
but if you get fucked
and you park your car in the street
and then a LA,
you know,
parking person sees your car, they're like, oh, you also have a boot. And then they tow your car in the street and then a LA you know parking person sees your car
they're like
oh you also have a boot
and then they tow your car
yeah
I think that they have
a better tracking system now
than maybe when you
had your boot on the car
I mean I had my boot
on my car like a year ago
did you do the keypad
a lot changed in a year
that would be fun
to just take your boot
and just throw it
on someone else's car
maybe like a year and a half
I had a boot on my car
in college
like 900 years ago
unfortunately
and we didn't have
that key pad thing
that you have.
You had to call the person.
Someone came.
They had to give you
a window of when they would come.
I had to sit at my car
to wait for this person
to remove the boot.
for the cable man.
But can I tell you something?
I did my freshman year
of college
at the University of Arizona
and we would get
college parking tickets.
Yeah, exactly.
Bear down.
And we would get
parking tickets
and you could pay them off,
I thought, with our bursar,
like our student thing,
because I'm like a fucking idiot.
Right, you're like,
there's money on here.
Well, they would let you buy like,
I caught shuffles with it.
I was like,
why can't I pay my parking tickets with it?
Turns out you can't.
And I had accumulated,
I'm not kidding,
I think like 27 parking tickets.
And finally they put the food on my car.
Legend.
One other thing that I recently searched was which way to turn wheels uphill if you're parking.
Oh, yeah.
A lot of car stuff for me.
You know, I'm just a gearhead.
If anything, we know you're a gearhead who's probably parking somewhere in Silver Lake.
And also, last time I was here, I'm also a teeth freak.
Last time I was here, I was talking about Millie Bobby Brown's teeth.
Oh, yeah.
Another thing that I typed in, Hilary Duff veneers.
I mean.
Oh, yeah.
She went a little.
She got aggressive with her veneers.
She went a little overboard.
Did she go back?
I think she had them filed down.
Yeah, she did.
I think, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, you know.
She looks great.
You live and you learn.
One thing I just want to bring up really quick is that another scam people are doing, I think, is really riding this wave off the interest of the Chernobyl series from HBO.
Because there's a new vodka out called Atomic.
I'm here for it.
With a K.
With a K.
And it is being used.
It's produced with the grains and water from Chernobyl's exclusion zone.
Right now, there's only one bottle in existence.
And how much is it?
So people are like, well, it's because like these people wanted to make it and be like,
we've done it.
We've made the thing.
Now, it's apparently like a team of like researchers, like are actually the ones making this.
And this is basically just a huge publicity stunt.
But the idea is actually...
So the whole thing is these researchers,
they found grain and water that were in this exclusion zone
and the shit was radioactive.
The grains, they say, were slightly radioactive.
Okay, the amounts were strontium-90,
were just a smidge above, I guess, normal safety level.
But I guess that's...
What is the normal safety level? I don't know. I guess it's barely... And what is a smidge above, I guess, normal safety level. But I guess that's- What is the normal safety level?
I don't know.
I guess it's barely-
And what is a smidge?
Well, look.
Look, do you want to get fucked up about Chernobyl vodka?
Look, Bill Nye.
I'm trying to get radio act lit.
Okay.
I know.
I want it.
Yeah, you think I've been fucked up before.
Wait until you see me get radio fucking active.
Yeah, exactly.
And then, but apparently it's different because when they distill the grain,
it's going to remove all the impurities.
So it's actually perfectly
safe to drink. And the water,
just so you know, it's from an aquifer
deep in the town of Chernobyl.
And they say it's
free from radioactive contamination,
similar in chemistry to the
groundwater sourced from the Champagne
region of France. Okay, but here's my thing about that. Then why doced from the Champagne region of France.
Okay, but like here's my thing about that.
Then why do we not have Champagne water?
We have, you know what I'm saying? Why do we not have water from that region?
Well, I think that's just to say that the water is supposed to be that amazing.
Then like where's the bottle water of that at?
I guess just for growing the grapes, really.
If we're getting into the vineyard, the wine growing aspect of it.
But water chemistry for grape growing
is very different than what we need to drink.
I wonder if you drank, you're like...
Yeah, I'm curious, what's the pH of that water?
Is it like Icelandic glacial?
Shout out to great pH water.
If the water in Champagne, France is that dope,
why don't we have champagne water?
Wow.
Do you have a competing vodka brand?
Right.
I think you might.
I do want to like, my goal is when I'm like huge celeb, celeb to have, of course, high
end alcohol.
George Clooney has Class Amigos.
Exactly.
Well, they sold that.
Oh, yeah.
Paul Mitchell had Patron.
Ryan Reynolds has Aviation Gin, which is now the biggest gin company.
Wait, Paul Mitchell was behind Patron?
Yeah.
Really?
Paul Mitchell Hair Care?
Yes, Hair Care.
Why do you think the Hair Care was green and the Patron was green?
Ba-ba.
Wow.
You know what?
That's called cross-branding.
Yes, but so subtle.
So subtle.
I should try to drink his hair products.
Wait, hold on.
Casamigos sold, so now George Clooney
has nothing to do with that?
Yeah, so Randy Gerber
and George Clooney,
whoever the third and fourth dude,
they sold it for like a billion dollars
two years ago.
Whoa, so it's done.
But they still use their likeness
because I see them
like palling around on trucks.
Oh, yeah.
The branding's still the same,
but they got their check.
They got their check. Diddy Juice, you know what I mean? All the yeah. The branding's still the same, but they got their check. They got their check.
Diddy Juice, you know what I mean?
All the Cirocs.
Oh, Avion.
Was it Avion?
Yes, Ciroc.
Ciroc.
No, no, no.
Diddy isn't Diddy.
No, Ciroc.
He has a tequila, though, too.
Yes, but he also has a tequila.
Oh, yeah.
It's called Avion.
No, Deleon.
Deleon.
Deleon.
And then-
Armadale was-
No, Fitty had F in vodka.
Fitty had F in vodka Fitty had F in vodka
yep
and then
but that's not doing that hot
it's actually doing pretty well
it's like in everybody's rail
like in like
that's considered
like a high end
really
a high end
I've got
I used to bartend a lot
and a lot
like a high end place
that would be in their rail
I was in a focus group
for F in vodka once
wow
and they were like
how did that happen
how were they like
you are our target market.
Because like my friend
was working at this marketing company
in New York
and we were like party kids.
You know what I'm saying?
And like I would,
we were the people
that were drinking.
I'm a vodka drinker.
And like,
So you want to try 50 cent vodka?
It was like,
what would make you try effing?
And I was just like, the packaging for you want to try 50 cent vodka? It was like, what would make you try FN? And I was just like,
the packaging for me,
the branding for me
is not,
that's,
I am more likely
to drink Ciroc
than I am FN.
Right.
I actually like Ciroc.
Puffy.
I do want to say
really quickly,
rest in peace
to a real scammer.
One of the more famous
sports cheaters of all time,
this woman,
Rosie Ruiz,
who in 1980 set the Boston marathon record for a woman with a time of two hours, 31 minutes,
and 56 seconds. And when she took the women's medal, many of the other runners were very
suspicious of her. The reason being, they say she wasn't sweating enough. She had on a heavy shirt
and she didn't know anything about running.
Did not even look like somebody who had run over 26 miles.
So this is before they were like checking people like where they had like markers and stuff.
Like people would just sort of there would be spotters who would just like write numbers down or whatever.
And during this time, she was able to take advantage of the system because also all of the folk uh the spotters
were mostly paying attention to the men's race so there you go sexism use fucking use patriarchy to
your advantage ma she um so and also she didn't show up on any video no fucking photographs that
were taken on the first 25 miles so how did she do it did she just run a mile and win she just showed up like a mile out and hopped in
they say like two students caught her just jumping into the race um near kenmore square about one
mile from the finish line shout out to a queen that's amazing when they when they were grilling
her they were like okay they're like what about your training methods like your pace times what
about intervals she She knew nothing.
I'd just be running, you know what I'm saying?
I'd be out here, I'd put my shoes on one shoe at a time
like everybody else, and I'd just be running.
She couldn't even identify landmarks.
It just fell apart.
So is that how they busted her that day?
Eight days later, they're like,
I'm sorry, after talking to you,
you clearly know nothing about anything.
It also came out, for her to qualify for the Boston Marathonathon she cheated in the New York Marathon and took the fucking subway
to get to the fucking finish line now that one was probably more believable because you do sweat on the subway
it's true I am obsessed with her and that's amazing so anyone that's willing to just like, to me, that is the greatest scam that like, it's so for what?
Like for what?
You know, it's like, it's not like you're scamming like a ton of money.
And you do win money when you win these marathons.
A little bit, yeah.
A little bit, but like.
It's more to be like, I won this marathon and set a world record.
I was so proud of her.
I was so proud of her.
The high must have been crazy.
Honestly, I think that it's one of those things where you're like, wouldn't this be crazy if this worked?
And then it does.
And you're kind of just like, holy shit.
They're like, so what are your methods?
You know, when I was a little girl, I started walking.
You know what I'm saying?
At first, I started with a crawl.
Then I started walking.
No, no.
And then one day, I started picking my legs up.
We're interested in your training methods as an elite marathon
runner. Oh, yeah, absolutely. So would you do
interval training? What do you... So I do all the intervals.
You know what I'm saying? So I do
a here and a there and I do it everywhere.
You know what I'm saying? And what about your runner's form?
Is there anything you had to address? Oh, my form is very much
putting one leg in front of the other. You know what I'm saying?
You got to really put... I think we've seen
enough, Ms. Mosley. Thank you so much
for your time. Eight days later.
I was set up.
That was wrong.
They set me up.
Miles.
Yep.
When does pumpkin spice season start this year?
In my mind, this is part of the corporation's way of letting us know what season we're in ever, right?
Yes.
So when you see pumpkin, you're like're like oh it must be fall yeah uh some companies are so fucking thirsty to get this shit going already
uh like dunkin donuts they're declaring august 21st the beginning of pumpkin spice season because
there's nothing like a thick rich pumpkin spice hot latte in late august yeah right and you're
like oh man what would be great the butt
of your pants is sticking to you because you're sweating go on no no i mean i've just heard that
that's what happens to people who sweat a lot that's what happens to other people not me though
i'm always dry all the time yep uh but yeah it's very you know it's like every single thing is
getting inched up closer and closer i don't know Again, we've talked about this in the past,
this really bizarre fixation on pumpkin spice in general,
like why it's been deified.
Like some people we work with think it's like the fucking,
like the God's blood type.
DJ Dan.
You mean they love it?
They love it.
They love it.
They'll do backflips and shit if you just mention the word.
Is it polarizing?
Because I don't care either way.
I don't care.
It tastes good when it's on a latte.
It makes your latte taste like,
it makes your coffee taste more like it's a milkshake,
which is never a bad thing.
That's the whole point of a latte.
Dan doesn't eat anything that is not pumpkin spice.
His Cheerios are pumpkin spice.
Everything. He has pumpkin spice that he dusts on a Like his Cheerios are pumpkin spice. Everything.
He has pumpkin spice that he dusts on his steak.
Exactly.
During that time.
Yes.
He would take an old pie,
dries it out in the sun,
and then grinds it up into a fine dust.
He's got a mental problem.
Yeah.
I do like the peppermint mocha.
That shit is good.
I like that.
And it's not good.
It's like 5,000 calories.
That's the thing of all these things.
So bad for you. Not a single one is even close to being healthy.
But not all of them taste good either, though.
My favorite one, a coffee bean and tea leaf, the Winter Dream Latte.
I mean...
I'll put that there.
I like the Black Forest.
Isn't that just cherries and chocolate and shit?
Yeah.
Milkshake, basically?
Yeah, it's a fucking milkshake is what it is, but it's got caffeine in it, so you get
even better.
Oh, because it's chocolate-covered coffee beans in there too, isn't it?
Yeah.
I remember the first time I had it, I was like working with a bunch of-
One million calories.
My first adult job at an office and everybody was like, oh, let's go get coffee, a coffee
bean.
I'm like, oh, fuck, I don't drink coffee.
Because to this day, cold brew is the only thing I've ever gotten a semblance of a caffeine
boost from.
So to me, going to coffee was like, I don't know what I'm going to order here.
Yeah, that's just bad tasting water.
Yeah, I just go.
I get the most childish fucking thing on the menu,
and it was that Black Forest basically shake, and they're like, whoa.
You don't want a coffee?
I'm like, nah, this is my favorite.
It was good, though, right?
It was great.
It was delicious, but then I'm like, I look like an idiot.
Everybody's drinking their hot things.
I have a fucking gigantic cup of whipped cream overflowing.
It's so good, though.
After you smoke weed, oh my God, that thing.
You're ahead of your time, man, because they just got more and more ridiculous and childish looking.
Yeah, right?
Until the unicorn shake, which was purple, pink, and blue.
I saw that.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Well, look.
That's the thing.
They really like to realize if we put cool colors in it,
people will buy it.
Yeah.
What was the other one recently?
I think they're like a casino.
They're just shining stuff.
They're like, hey, remember the band Cherry Pie?
They're here this weekend.
Warren?
Yeah.
And then people come see them, and then they spend a million dollars while they're here this weekend and people yeah and then people come see them
and then they spend
a million dollars
while they're there
and that's what
Starbucks realizes
like if we can get them
in that store
for this weird thing
they can take a photo with
they'll buy three other things
yeah
and it's just like
and I say it
and everyone's like
oh yeah
and then we go
and then it works
it doesn't matter
yeah and you're in there
yeah to you and your instagram stories like got three of them fill that hole baby um well i order
just coffee because it i use it when i'm on the road the app's pretty good and it's like familiar
the starbucks yeah like when i'm traveling oh uh starbucks yeah but i just order coffee there and
that always just throws them off.
Right. Like what?
I just want a blonde roast.
Drip?
They just stare at me.
Like in a cup?
Yeah, just turn around and give it to me, and I'm going to get out of here.
We can turn into a vapor.
I just need a cup of coffee.
Let me see if we make those.
I do wonder how much of this move is based on them knowing that this is going to be earlier
than starbucks right so this will be the only place that you can go to get pumpkin spice but
then right for the month of some dude in an office did some math yeah right august 21st
we can have exclusivity for 10 days or something before we'll make 150 extra thousand dollars right
yeah and but they're, you get a boat.
I just like the inevitable conclusion of all these things.
Like, you know, basically almost after Halloween,
we're essentially already in Christmas.
Right.
Like mixed with Thanksgiving that if Duncan does this,
then what, Starbucks next year is like, oh, actually August 14th
is when we're bringing pumpkin spice lattes.
And then pumpkin spice lattes becomes like a dads and grads thing.
Like graduation time, you know, pumpkin spice lattes.
This Justin from resident PSL addict DJ Daniel, he said Starbucks,
they're starting theirs on August 27th.
So they're going to have six fucking days.
Wait, I guess that's that 150 extra K.
Yep.
He referred to it as the psl so casually yes the way
he said it was it was horrifying well i i think the the part that makes me laugh is the aesthetic
to it because it's like it's like the pumpkin color so people are like this is the pumpkin
season so i spend my money on the pumpkins and Mm-hmm. And then, like you said, Halloween is like, it's a brighter orange.
Mm-hmm.
Right.
And then there's a black to it, so you spend your money on the black.
And then it's like red and green.
That's the, you spend a lot of money on red and green.
Mm-hmm.
And then you save some, and then it gets red again for Valentine's Day.
Okay, go on.
I like this color too.
Is that what the Christmas colors represent to you, is blood and money?
That's how I was raised in my house.
Damn.
That's intense.
Blood and money.
That is intense.
All right, we're going to take a quick break.
What's the Easter Bunny, man?
We'll be right back.

I'm Keri Champion, and this is season four of Naked Sports,
where we live at the intersection of sports and culture.
Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese.
I know I'll go down in history. People are talking about women's basketball
just because of one single game.
Every great player needs a foil.
I ain't really near them. Why is that? I just come here to play basketball every
single day, and that's what I focus on.
From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports. Angel Reese is a joy to watch.
She is unapologetically black.
I love her.
What exactly ignited this fire?
Why has it been so good for the game?
And can the fanfare surrounding these two supernovas be sustained?
This game is only going to get better because the talent is getting better.
This new season will cover all things sports and culture.

Miles, I noticed you guys covered how to fight seagulls while I was gone.
How to stare a seagull the fuck down.
How to stare a seagull down.
Well, where I was, the city of Ocean City, New Jersey, was also making news for fighting seagulls in a unique way.
When you asked about it, you're like, oh, yeah, you talked about the seagull thing.
And I was like, no, it was from England. He's like, yeah, but the falconers and stuff. And I'm like, yo, what the fuck are you asked about it, you're like, oh, yeah, you talked about the seagull thing. And I was like, no, it was from England.
He's like, yeah, but the falconers and stuff.
And I'm like, yo, what the fuck are you talking about?
My thing was purely about like staring at a seagull if they came to your chip back.
Anyways, Miles, the seagull wars are upon us is what I'm talking about.
Okay, thank you.
Yeah, this is the only time I've ever seen Ocean City make national news.
Since Jersey Shore?
Ocean City was not Jersey
Shore oh it's the same it's a little different oh wow there's a furious head shaking all around the
room it's a little different a little different okay anyway but please tell us your visions of
the seagull war in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. So people were making a big deal because they hired a bunch of falconers
and people who had trained birds of prey
to patrol the boardwalk in Ocean City
to scare off the seagulls.
Hell yeah.
And it worked.
Using nature to fight nature.
Yeah, using nature to fight nature,
but it's not like they just released a bunch of falcons.
They had them on a dude's arm
with the little funny hats on and shit.
And it worked, man.
I was walking down the sidewalk,
and I was like,
what's different about this?
I can hear the ocean.
That's weird.
And then I was like,
oh, yeah, there's no seagulls.
You can't hear it.
It's not just like,
ah, ah, ah.
Constant cacophonic but they went
somewhere else yeah they just went to a different town on the jersey shore basically like there's
one town right there yeah a lot right they went to a town that feels like a lot smaller falconer
budget i guess how many falconers did you see like i didn't stretch i didn't see any like
in the wild i've seen one city and they their fucking falcons i've seen one in orange county
actually uh at a hotel just like patrolling the hotel pool because uh to keep the seagulls away
and like it's it's apparently an accepted way i just like though that like they've there's really
no technological way to really do away with seagulls oh there is a gun okay maybe, but you don't want to be shooting off your pistol by the kid's pool.
Yeah.
But the fact that you could just be like, yo, get that guy with the hawk.
Yeah.
And then the seagulls shook, gone.
Although I feel like at some point-
Hey, Barry, what's your weird cousin, what's his hobby?
Falcon?
Falconer, right?
See if that'll help.
Yeah.
Bring his falcon over here.
What's he doing with that thing?
I think it died.
I don't know if that's a good Jersey impression.
Some kind of impression.
It's more like a Philly accent, which-
It's pretty close.
Pretty close.
Yeah.
Well, look.
He's got a lot of vacation in there.
He's on vacation.
Okay.
Going to Wawa.
A couple hours away.
Get a haugi.
I wonder, though, if because you have these birds, they would fly, right?
Or the mere presence of them was enough. They would let- They fly. They unleash it? They fly. Yeah these birds, like they would fly, right? Or they just the mere presence of them was enough.
They would let they unleash it.
They fly.
So inevitably, right?
Wouldn't there be some some families who are having to explain to their children why a fucking falcon was just just destroying, devouring a seagull right in front of them?
I don't think they eat them.
I think they just scare them away.
It's like a territory.
But aren't they carnivorous birds?
Yeah.
I mean, Miles, you and I saw.
We saw a fucking hawk.
On our street.
In the streets here in Los Angeles, we saw a hawk eating a pigeon.
Just ripping it apart.
But it was legit alive.
It was keeping it down with its talons and just eating it.
Yeah.
Hell yeah.
I love hawks.
One of the more beautiful things I've ever seen.
But anyways, that shit works.
Fight nature with nature.
You think it was one of those pigeons that goes in front of your car real slow
and you're going to slow down?
That's what he did to the hawk, and the hawk's like, no, dude.
I'm going to eat you in the street so people know.
I think you can find videos of hawk eating.
Hawks eating pigeons.
Hawk kill and eat seagull.
Well, I think birds, because when you drive long periods,
especially through the Midwest, you'll see a hawk every so miles.
Patrolling.
Just sitting on the line.
You just see them.
So it's like, I think they're like crows too,
where they have like a territory.
Right.
So they're not like, they may mess one seagull up
just so that's enough yeah that reminds me like i went fishing in the in the atlanta in the gulf
part down in florida one time in the back channels and there's seagulls around because we were trying
to get bait and all this stuff and our guide was like mad he's like these damn seagulls blah blah
i wasn't paying attention i was like half stoned at 830 in the morning.
This is fun.
I picked a good job where I get to go do this.
And I turn around and the guy is, he had caught a bird on his line and he was bringing it in.
And I just stopped doing what I'm doing.
I'm like, what's he going to do here?
And he grabs the bird.
He reels it in to the top of the rod.
He grabs it and then rips its head off.
What?
Yes.
And then throws it back in the water.
And he was like, they'll get the message.
Let's go somewhere else.
I'm technically not supposed to do stuff like that.
And we're like, what is happening, Crocodile Dundee?
Holy shit.
And you know what?
The birds left us alone.
Yeah.
They're like, hey, that dude's the one that ripped Larry's head off.
Right.
Just snatched it off.
Wow.
Yeah.
I like that he's like, technically not supposed to be doing that stuff anymore.
I was like, you mean legally.
Legally is the word.
Legally and based on the social.
Manatee-wise.
Yeah.
Disturbing for others to have just witnessed and also animal cruelty
before their eyes.
I want to go back to bed.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah,
I once got a pelican
on the hook
in the,
in the Gulf
because I caught a fish
and then the pelican
ate the fish.
Oh, cool.
I was like 12
and was like scared.
I was like,
what do I do?
Like people are gathering around.
I was like reeling
in a giant pelican that was, and this dude just came up and like did a couple things with the uh with the
fishing rod and yanked it out oh good i was i thought maybe we were headed for another billy
wayne type i didn't do it i was just there no i know i'm saying that it was a similar ending like
that's just how they handle shit on boats uh It was, like, one of those traumatic things
where it would have happened.
Like, you don't even react.
I just went, holy shit.
Yeah.
And just kept laughing.
I was like, okay, okay.
Wait, what kind of bird was it?
It was a seagull.
A seagull.
Yeah, because they were just messing.
We were trying to get a bunch of fish for bait.
Yeah.
Just the idea, though, that someone was like,
let me just barehand decapitate this.
It was not the first or last time that man ran that.
That's his way of doing that.
I don't remember his name.
They're like, Billy, we'd love for you to come back out with us.
You're like, nah.
He's like, was it Rob?
Was it Rob?
No, we caught a lot of fish that day.
We did.
I mean, I come from East Tennessee, so it wasn't that shocking to me.
It was just more like, oh, okay, well, that's how we're doing it here.
But the swiftness, yeah.
It's like, and how clean everything was.
Like, he just knew.
I was like, oh, wow, okay.
We're going to tip him.
We're going to tip this guy.
What kind of fish did you go out for?
It was a red snapper, I think, is what we were doing.
And it was cool because the club we were working at also, the guy was also a guy that owned the club and restaurant.
So we took the fish, cleaned it, and then he took it to his –
Oh, so good.
The dude who ripped the seagull's head off?
No, he handed it to the owner.
Got it.
He had other clients.
He was busy.
He's a popular –
That guy owns a comedy club too?
No, well, that guy is also a guy, but he was like,
I'm sending out with the best guy in town. We're like, he's good. He's a pop guy. He owns a comedy club, too. No, well, that guy is also a guy, but he was like, I'm sitting out with the best guy in town.
We're like, he's good.
He's real good.
How'd Ripper do out there?
Ripper was real good.
Let's get into the first and most important story of the day.
Chris Cuomo was insulted.
He was pissed.
Cuomo's pissed, you guys.
He was on Shelter Island with his family
and some dude just got in his face
and apparently did the thing you're
never supposed to do to an Italian man.
Okay.
I thought that's who you were.
No, punk-ass bitches from the right call me Fredo.
My name is Chris Cuomo.
I'm an anchor on CNN.
Fredo is from the Godfather.
He was our weak brother.
And they use it as an Italian aspersion. Any of you Italian?
Are you Italian? It's a fucking insult to your people.
It's an insult to your fucking people. It's like the N-word for us.
Is that a cool fucking thing?
You're a much more reasonable guy in person than you seem to be on television.
Yeah, but if you want to play, then we'll fucking play.
You got something you want to say about what I do on television and say it, but don't call me a fucking insult.
Hey, man, hey, listen. I don't want any problems.
You're going to have a big fucking problem.
It's a little different on TV. Don't fucking insult me like that.
I didn't insult you.
You call me Fredo. It's like I call you punk bitch.
You like that? You want that to be your nickname?
I didn't call you that.
You called me Fredo. You know my name's not fucking Fredo.
I thought your name was.
You did not think my name was fucking Fredo. Don't be a liar. You want to be a man, stand up like a man. I'm standing up, man. Wow. fucking throw you down these stairs like a fucking punk please do you don't want to sue you don't so you can fucking sue well why don't you do it take a swing you want to call me fredo
take a fucking swing wow okay so chris cuomo uh clearly he's very strong in his masculinity right
what i've learned from that video uh has been suppressing his strong like bronx accent i don't
know what that is whatever yeah yeah and he's also demonstrating he does not know what a racial slur is.
Right.
When he goes, you call me Fredo?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's like the N word for Italians.
Uh-huh.
Comparing something to the N word is strong but wrong.
Yeah.
I mean, if you're going to swing on that pitch, it better be a big swing.
Yes.
Because he went for a bunt on that one.
Really crazy.
swing yes because he went for a bunt on that i mean really crazy yeah that it's just it's all based off of that michael corleone's brother from the godfather fredo was like you know i get it he
was lame but to for it to have that much weight for someone and to actually then shame another
italian american he's like good that's a slur against our people right like yeah oh i didn't realize that i mean i guess in a way
uh you know godfather is canon yeah oh for sure yeah um something tells me that's not the first
time he's been called that possibly yeah well he said punks on the right or something call me
right i mean like that person who walks up to a famous person and like insults them
is like,
what's wrong with you?
Well, this person
is like a
wannabe
right wing
gotcha guy.
Jesse Waters guy.
Yeah.
He seemed like
a natural comedian.
Yeah, I mean,
he was pretty funny.
Yeah, so I mean,
you know,
what's funny is
Sean Hannity
actually was like,
you know what?
Chris Cuomo doesn't have to apologize for anything.
This is his tweet.
He said, I say good for Chris Cuomo.
He's out with his nine-year-old daughter and his wife, and this guy is being a jackass in front of his family?
In my humble opinion, Chris Cuomo has zero to apologize for.
He deserves the apology.
I'm just really glad that's where Sean Hannity decided to, like, the hell he decided to die on.
He's like, you know what?
I'm going gonna break ties
with my party for a second.
Everything else is going great.
Everything else has been perfect.
But I have to say
something about this.
It's like that meme
of the two arms
locking in like a,
you know,
from like,
you son of a bitch
from Predator.
On one side,
it's a Fox News.
The other side says CNN
and the fist grabbing
is that Fredo is a slur.
Right.
Like, you know what? The same. We don't fucking agree on a lot but that's fucking disrespectful there
was a girl with curly blonde hair like me who my friend called a fucking ramen noodle head
and um aggressive i kind of thought it was really funny though it's very it's i was like
he was like that fucking ramen noodle head and i was
like hey i have blonde curly hair too right that being said i would never say hey does your mom
have blonde curly hair yeah so you're disrespecting our people right right right yeah to like just
saying in any way comparing it to the n-word would be insane. Hey, well, he's a tough guy, we found out.
And, you know, good for him, I guess.
But the ramen noodle, was that around like when Justin Timberlake had his hair that looked like ramen noodles?
Because I feel like that was a very en vogue insult.
He had, yes.
His hair really, yeah, because it had a wetness to it.
And like the tips were so frosted.
They could only be mistaken for uncooked ramen noodles.
Yes.
So brutal.
I'm sure that Chris Cuomo's wife and daughter were thrilled that he chose to take it to
the mat on this one rather than just letting it roll off his back.
I mean, he was doing the thing that rich people who want to act tough do, which is say everything
except get violent.
Right.
like rich people who want to act tough do which is like say everything except get violent right or like if you know people who are like who are about that shit they're typically or just like
no my ego has been damaged and i'm just gonna react violently where he's like i'll fucking
throw you down the stairs is that not enough uh fuck you chris once threatened to uh eat me he
said he picks chunks of people like me out of his stool.
No, he didn't.
Yeah, he did.
When I worked at ABC News.
Wow.
He's just a very fratty dude.
Why does he pick chunks out of his stool?
I can't.
It's like one of those things that falls apart right away.
Like Haki Gilmore.
I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast.
No.
So you examine your stool And pick chunks
I'm having some sort of bowel things right now
And the doctor says I need to send
Look, fuck you kid
I do think that
Toxic masculinity is inherently
Unattractive
Like guys who are going to pick a fight with someone
Just from a female standpoint
I think that's actually repulsive
Which I don't think you can know Unless you're in that moment with someone i like just from a female standpoint i think that's actually repulsive like which i
don't think you can know unless you're in that moment we were like oh my god no you are being
so pathetic right now like the strong move is just to walk away right right obviously there's like
circumstances where that's not the case but for the most part like fighting someone on vacation
right but who knows his wife was like oh my God, Kristen was so fucking hot.
It's like the end of Mystic River.
Right now.
That fucking jabroni down the fucking stairs, Christopher.
There's a story that echoes something
I had heard Trump has done for years.
That he was using an analog form of Twitter before anyone?
Yeah, basically.
When the New Yorker profiled him
and the person who wrote the story,
it wasn't flattering.
I mean, it was just an honest account
of spending a week with Donald Trump
and how he was just completely empty
and was like, hey, it's a pretty cool life, huh?
I live a great great life don't
i how cool is my life literally like that's all he kept just literally so inspiring yeah so the guy
wrote the article and then like a couple weeks later he got in the mail a piece of the article
with loser written on it from donald trump hey, you are a loser. Love, Donald Trump.
Just scrawled across the page like that.
Because he just gets mad at stuff and writes on it. Yeah.
Well, this falls perfectly in line with it.
There's no way his TV doesn't.
It's literally the burn book from Mean Girls.
Right, right.
Except he's sending the pages out.
This girl is a fugly slut.
Do not trust her.
Right.
Because he probably has, he's like, what you don't know is there's also a copy for
his burn book that he puts
together in bed. He's always had
a complicated relationship with Justin Trudeau.
Yeah, well, because
Justin Trudeau has, you
know, stood up to him. Right.
And he, like, he always says, apparently,
like, about him, like, when he's not around
Trudeau, or just, like, you know, casually to people
in the cabinet, he's like, he always refers
him as a tough guy. He's like, yeah, he's a tough guy. This guy's a tough guy. About Trudeau? Trudeau, he casually to people in the cabinet. He always refers to him as a tough guy. He's like,
yeah, he's a tough guy. This guy's a tough guy.
About Trudeau? About Trudeau, he's a tough guy.
What? That's so nuts.
That's the weird nickname for him that
he always refers to him as a tough guy, which is
of course the thing you say when you're
a dude trying to fight.
Oh, tough guy, huh? Okay.
I also think he must be threatened
by Trudeau's good looks.
Yes.
Like that can't, for someone who's so obsessed with their appearance and the long ties and
the tan, you don't even talk about his hair.
Let's say it's painted on with the grease paint.
Yeah.
It's like, it's again, it's just too much of a villain situation.
But you, yeah.
Just to see someone who is so almost jokingly attractive.
Right.
And who your daughter wants to fuck.
Yes.
Like that picture of Ivanka.
That picture of Ivanka.
That's in the burn book.
That is in the burn book.
She's just in profile and she's looking at his mouth.
With her pen in her mouth.
Yes.
Which is.
Oh, there's a, wow.
Her pen is dangling out in her mouth. Yes. Which is. Oh, there's a, wow. Her pen is dangling out of her mouth.
I am too self-conscious to have ever done that in front of a crush.
Right.
Because it's too overtly sexual.
Sure.
Right, right, right.
Good God.
She's like, I'm an 80s seductress.
My husband is a giant 12-year-old, and I will have sex with you.
Yeah, I wonder what Jared,
how Jared feels also seeing that photo.
Cause it's like him just on like Chad pills,
basically bigger and bulkier and more masculine anyway.
So with Trudeau,
it's the same shit,
right? There was a issue of Bloomberg business week.
This is from 2017 in may.
There was a picture of Trudeau and the headline just said, The Anti-Trump.
So, our man tore the fucking cover off the magazine.
As you do.
And wrote on it in silver sharpie.
And this is according to people with direct knowledge,
something to the effect of,
Looking good.
Hope it's not true.
Wow.
So, like, not a well thought out response either just hope it's not true okay like that
like you want to defeat me that you're gonna write down i don't know um and then so this was
so absurd that the canadian ambassador thought it was a prank and immediately like reached out to
the white house and was like um yeah i think we may have gotten some kind of prank thing
on like the stationery realistic
and they're like no similes of white house mail yeah they're like this is no this that was very
real and they're like some mentally disturbed person but then it got basically it ramped up
a little bit even more so then in december of 2017 trump told a crowd in pensacola florida
that he's like you know we've got a tremendous trade deficit with Canada and we've got to, we've got to write that. And, you know, around this time he mailed Trudeau
this document, but of course it's a White House one that only takes into account like data that
would only support his point very narrowly, a document that shows that the U.S. had a trade
deficit. And then in Sharpie wrote, not good! Exclamation point. Well said.
And then in Sharpie wrote, not good!
Amazing.
Exclamation point.
Well said.
But this whole document, they say all the analysts are like,
it's only mentioning the deficit in the trade of goods and ignored the surplus in services.
So when you combine them, it actually gives the U.S. an overall surplus.
But it's only looking at this one piece.
So then Trudeau clapped back on his official stationery, not ripped off
documents or whatever, and wrote, Dear Donald, it's been a busy year. Enjoy the Christmas holidays.
You deserve it. Oh, one thing. You gave a great speech in Pensacola, but you were slightly off
on the balance of trade with Canada. The U.S. Treasury Department says so. All the best for
2018, Justin. And the second page of the letter is a printout of this, like,
informational page that is from the U.S. Trade Office
that shows exactly that there is a trade surplus.
And it was like, and that's the devil's kiss he gave him.
So, you know, they have a very, I just like that.
That's how they get in Canada.
That's the most insulting.
Yeah, that's as far as they can go.
I will highlight a fact.
And it will be apparent.
And that's all we will need to do about this. He literally says you deserve like a good holiday.
You deserve it.
You know what?
I'm not going to say you don't deserve it because Christmas should be fun for everyone.
Exactly.
You're probably mean to me because you're just exhausted.
Yeah.
We have Ugg the caveman like not good.
Great.
Thank you.
All right. We're going to take another quick break and we'll be right back definitely caruana galizia was a maltese investigative journalist who on october

And we're back.
And Miles, I personally don't give a shit about spoilers.
I don't either.
They kind of help me enjoy the movie a little bit.
Actually, same.
The first time, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, is the first movie that I'm really, really glad I didn't have spoiled for me.
So thank you, sir.
Oh, okay.
Because you had seen it like a week before me.
I just don't talk about anything movie-wise sometimes.
So I'm not like ever being like, oh, I'm not going to say anything for other people.
I'm just like, look, I got a lot going.
I got a lot of tables, man.
Janine Garofalo famously said in The Cable Guy.
Yeah.
Usually I don't care because movies stress me out.
Right.
Because I want to know what happens.
You're the same with sports, too.
Right.
I fucking can't.
I need it.
The fucking thrill of watching sports, for sure, is to live and die by that scoreboard and you know because
you know obviously the downside is the lows could be just soul crushing but the highs like when you
don't know the outcome and it actually becomes like legendary you you need those you need those
that's when you were cool with uh strangers right all of a sudden being like in the space
right there's a big win and you're both like and you're jumping up and down right you're high five With strangers, right? All of a sudden being like in the space, right?
There's a big wind and you're both like, oh.
And you're jumping up and down.
You're high-fiving.
Your brain is just flooded with chemicals.
Exactly.
But I guess with TV shows and stuff, not as bad.
I think the only time would be like a finale.
Maybe, I don't want to know.
But aside from that, like if someone, you know,
like I knew the Sixth Sense ending before I saw it and I wasn't pissed oh humble brag huh well no someone said it and so i was like you've
got friends who've seen the six yeah humble brag oh you saw the six cents a month later
no it's like one of those things where like people you know at the time that was considered
like the oh my god six cents and someone was like yeah he's like fucking dead at the end and i was like huh
okay and then i saw it and i was still like oh right but to me the the journey wasn't so much
that twist like it was everything else around it yeah but anyway i mean both that and usual
suspects are rewatchable movies oh for sure oh yeah even though they're big twisty twists at the end. But anyways. Huge Kevin Spacey fans over here.
Yes.
Yes, AI.
Maybe this is the light.
Yeah, well, Allen Iverson, the answer,
may be the answer as well.
Wow, that's poetic.
That AI could be the answer
to creating a spoiler-free internet.
Now, there are researchers at the University,
UC San Diego,
who have been working on some kind of AI algorithm
to try and basically detect spoilers and censor them
so people can just fearlessly go into an article
and make sure anything that could be a spoiler
would be redacted.
However, it's a lot fucking harder than they realized.
So they call it spoiler net to train
spoiler net the team went looking for large data sets of sentences containing spoilers
spoiler alert they found none so they created their own by collecting more than 1.3 million
book reviews annotated with spoiler tags by book reviewers the tags encompass sentences that
include spoilers and hide them behind of quote view spoiler link in the text. The reviews were collected from Goodreads, blah, blah, blah.
So they really found at first there wasn't really an effective way to actually do this
because there's still a lot of issues, especially with like semantic nuances.
So they said, in addition, the same word may have different semantic meanings in different
contexts. For example, green is just a color in one book review but it can be the name of an important character
and a signal for spoilers in another book identifying and understanding these differences
is challenging so they're sort of saying like we have something imperfect right but it almost seems
that even then the bigger picture here is that it's like yeah it might be very hard to do this
or you're
gonna have to feed this thing a lot more data before i can start picking out stuff like that
sure so the conclusion of their scientific study is like science is hard science is hard this shit
is tough guys this is tough dude honestly like come on man don't bust my balls about this dude
it's a good idea when we thought about it thanks for coming to my TED talk what do you guys want
there's free snacks outside
yeah but they did run it on a few
single sentence reviews about TV shows
and it was able to detect spoilers
at a 74 to 80%
so it's not like perfect
but it is getting better and better
but yeah I think that's where they're really realizing
it's like okay we've got to train this shit a little bit
I mean that's pretty good I only realizing it's like, okay, we've got to train this shit. I mean, that's pretty good. I only read sentence long reviews.
Well,
right.
Cause I like 70,
80% of the reason was that they were trying to also have applications for it
on Twitter.
Right.
So that way you can like,
if you,
you know,
if you're doing it through the browser,
it could be like a browser plugin that could just be running as you,
cause the spoiler can sneak up on you.
Yeah.
You've gone through your timeline,
you know,
yeah. In between Casey Dia picks. Hey hey man spoiler alert might come up hey when you're in
la dude i'll take you to a case idea spot you'll cry no shit really it's just so bad it's loaded
you're gonna get fucking listeria dude cool you know that's the way i want to go out no spoilers
no there's some there's some really next level just like clog your whole soul let's do that
quesadillas but uh but also just personally do you want an ai 98 plus percent uh spoiler
no but ai i feel like it's only improved my life in the ways I don't know about,
like where it's happening in medical, whatever.
I'm like, great.
I'm not one who's like, fuck,
I need an AI solution to my human problem
of my day-to-day life.
I think there are probably ways
that it's already helping with navigation apps.
Oh, absolutely.
That shit I'm fine with,
but I've never been like,
ugh, these spoilers.
Why can't there be AI?
There's God,
but you'll better away.
Because you're not Yoda.
Well, because the whole thing is,
God forbid,
you don't fucking look at your phone
for a few hours
or just say the fuck off Twitter or Facebook
where the spoilers normally reside.
And I think that speaks more
to people's inability
to get the log the fuck off.
Right. It's also kind of this kind of foisting responsibility reside and i think that speaks more to people's inability to get the log the fuck off right it's
also kind of this uh kind of foisting responsibility on to everyone who is not me yeah to say like i
haven't seen uh whatever like i haven't seen the last episode of lost right so the billions of the
rest of you shut the fuck up until thursday yeah it's weird it's a weird expectation oh just like
that for you right right guess what motherfucker they were dead the whole time right wait what
yeah or or yeah or okay sorry i picked a terrible example for that but you guys do it yeah of course
of course people who like read a lot about a movie or a show and then are mad when it gets spoiled for them.
It's like, what?
Why is that a thing?
Let me read the wiki on my own, guys.
What is something you think is overrated?
Overrated?
The internet.
Hey, fuck the internet.
Yeah.
I just think as a tool, we're misusing it.
I may have said this before on here, but I do think every time I get on it,
I'm like, I'm not using this correctly.
I'm using it to feel worse about something.
It is.
Yeah, and then the information I'm getting
and putting in my brain is pointless.
It's like, how much does a helicopter cost?
Oh, wow.
Are you doing well?
No, I'm not.
That's the thing.
I'm not doing helicopter.
I'm just curious.
How much does a MiG cost? Not that much as far as MiGs go.
What is a MiG? The Russian fighter jet?
Yeah, you can get one for under a million, close to a million bucks.
Oh, really? That's pretty good.
What about a helicopter? Depends on the type
of helicopter. You can get like,
pretty affordable ones, like $150,000.
Oh! Yeah. They're like kits. They're pretty affordable ones like 150 grand oh yeah they're
like kits they're they're pretty cool oh i don't need a kid helicopter we need one that if it pops
off or like yo we gotta we might have to dust the helicopter off um you know this is good like a gun
chip you want no no you want like a huey from vietnam yeah or a black i did see i was talking
to my manager on the phone the other day, and while we were talking, the SWAT helicopter circled my neighborhood with the dudes hanging out of it.
Oh, really?
With the guns?
Yeah.
All because you didn't pay your power bill?
It was that I did do a mental checklist of all the stuff.
Right.
Did I do anything?
Have I pissed off anyone that's good at the internet?
Right, right.
And then they just kind of flew away.
Do you know what happened?
No.
That's the fun thing.
I got that Citizen app.
That's overrated.
How about that?
The Citizen app?
Yes, it's overrated.
What is that?
It's like a scanner, but it's like people use it, and then there's real-time stuff.
But last night, there was a chase down my alley.
I watched it happen.
Oh, wow.
They were chasing a Kia Soul.
Did you find out about it and then run over?
No.
No.
I was coming home from doing a set, and I saw the helicopter was –
I saw the beam, and I was like, that's real close to where I'm going, my home.
Right.
Yes.
And I pull in, and I get out, and the helicopter's like real low.
And then I watch the beam,
and it's going down this alley by my house,
and then this Kia Soul just flies by,
and then three cops fly by,
and I was like, that's pretty cool.
It was like the Goonies.
I felt like Chuck was.
Yeah, yeah.
Great opening scene.
Yeah, I went in, and my wife was like,
that helicopter sounded low,
and I was like, hey, there are police cars.
It was awesome.
She's like making stuff up again, Billy Wayne.
She's like, the baby's asleep.
Shut up.
I think they were chasing a giant hamster.
I'm just amped up.
I'm like, I love LA.
