Bum, bum, bum, bum, internet.

Now let me welcome everybody to O'Brien Miles' guest.
Psychance that's untouchable like Elliot Ness.
Podcast hits your eardrum like a slug to your chest.

Wow, that was a Dr. Dre.
That was me doing that Dr. Dre.
Yeah, hell yeah. You never lost. You know, I never did. And that's from Johnny Pompey, at was a Dr. Dre That was me doing that Dr. Dre Hell yeah
You never lost
You know, I never did
And that's from Johnny Pompey
At Johnny Pompey
For that, aka
Weren't we just talking about Mount Vesuvius?
Mount Vesuvius?
Yeah, we were
We were talking about that tweet
Because there was a picture
Of like somebody with their ass up
But they were like covered in grey makeup
And they were like
If there was a volcanic eruption
today, this is what they would find of us.
And someone was like, yeah, but
Mount Vesuvius was fucked up too.
Mount Vesuvius had all sorts of
weird, dirty jokes and
shit. All I remember as a kid, I was so
traumatized when they were like the ash and
remains of families holding each other.
They showed me that one in kindergarten
or first grade for history. I was like, this is
fucked up. Just the
terror. Grow up,
children. Yeah, exactly.
This could be you and your family clutching each other.
See that mountain? It's not a mountain.
That mountain wants to kill
you. Taking time bomb. That voice you
hear is the voice of one of the
funniest stand-up comedians working
and one of the great all-time zeitgeist guests.
We're thrilled to have Billy Wayne Davis.
Hey.
Hey.
I never know when I can and can't come in.
It doesn't matter.
Okay.
You're welcome to come in.
I think that's the thing with people who do a lot of podcasts.
Their format is more structured.
Like, okay, and then we're going to talk for about five minutes,
and then we'll bring you in.
Yes.
We're here. You know how we get down here. And then we're going to talk for about five minutes, and then we'll bring you in. Yes. We're here.
You know how we get down here.
And then I already talked about your Dr. Dre thing,
so I was like, I don't know if I fucked that up.
All right, you know what?
From the top, Nick.
But I felt compelled.
Here we go.
We're also joined by my dog, Finn, in the studio.
Yes.
If you hear what sounds like someone snoring while awake, that is my dog.
He does not breathe so good.
Billy, what did you say about him?
He's never seen anything right in front of his face?
Yeah, his eyes are pretty far apart.
Kind of pointed in opposite directions.
Yeah, so you could startle him if you walked right in front of him.
He's a mess.
Was he Cavalier King Charles, you said his name?
Yes, he is.
He has a Cavalier attitude.
He does have also kind of a regalness about him.
Yeah.
For how goofy he looks.
But like one of those-
Court jester.
Or just one of those like a baron who like has gout.
Yes.
They're like the rich, like when it really was a rich man's disease from not doing anything.
Well, because-
Yeah, he's like the second or third.
He's not going to be king.
Yeah, yeah.
He's like, nah.
He's like, nah, nah. Well, because the Royals were all inbred, and he kind of has that vibe to him.
His eyes are bulging.
Is he purebred?
Because aren't a lot of purebred dogs on the inbred sometimes?
I think he is, yeah.
Well, look, we'll do a DNA test, and we'll get to the bottom of it.
Exactly.
Well, Philly Wayne, we're going to get to know you even better than we already do.
But first, we're going to tell our listeners what we're going to be talking about today.
Unfortunately, we are going to be talking about what Nintendo character the President's Dick looks like.
What?
Off the top, we're going to be talking about the...
No one flinched at what you just said.
I know.
Everyone's just like, yeah.
Everyone's like, yeah.
2018, y'all.
That's where, yeah. 2018, y'all are a rat.
That's where we are.
We're going to be talking about the responses to the Kavanaugh allegations and how the right is responding to this whole story because Drudge doesn't really seem to want to talk
about it.
Why?
I don't know.
We're going to talk about the Emmys real quick.
We're going to talk Elon Musk and who he is going to the moon with.
We're going to talk about Sean Penn's thoughts on the Me Too movement for some reason.
All that and more.
We don't have to talk about that.
But first, Billy Wayne.
I bet it's not a great take.
Oh, it's amazing.
It's one of the more thoughtful.
Did he fix it? Uh-huh. Oh, yeah. He got to the bottom of the more thoughtful. Did he fix it?
Uh-huh.
Oh, yeah.
He got to the bottom of it.
He thought he did.
Of course.
What is something from your search history that is revealing about who you are?
I heard someone casually talk about installing a pool.
So I immediately thought the way they said it was like, I don't think they understand what they're saying.
Because they're installing a pool?
Yeah, they're like, yeah,
we'll just put a pool in the back.
And they're like, it's not that much,
it's not that big of a process.
And I was just like, I didn't say anything in the moment.
You know what I mean?
I was like, I know that I don't know enough to truly say,
but what you said doesn't sound right.
And the way you're saying it
seems like you're gonna to have a headache.
But I don't, like I said, so I immediately, when I got back home,
that's what I looked up is how much it costs to install a pool in the process.
That's like 50 grand, right?
40 grand?
Depending on the city.
Yeah.
The LA, they say you're going to look around at least 21 to 25.
Okay.
And then, you know, it goes up from like yeah crazy amounts we have to think about the pump infrastructure and then where you're at yeah yeah and all that stuff
so it was like fascinating too well was that someone with a lot of disposable income then
or were they thinking like it's a five thousand dollar affair i think that's what the yeah because
that's what a hole and cement it and boom yeah Yeah, because the way they said it, I was like, and it was also like, I don't feel like you have that much money to gradually throw in a pool.
Yeah, that would be no big deal.
Right.
Yeah, we'll just throw a pool in.
Yeah.
I know it does seem like.
They might have been thinking above ground.
Yeah, because there's so many pools in LA.
I know what they were thinking.
They're like, it can't be like, they're everywhere.
Everybody has a pool.
They were built in a time when that was, like, that was 50s or 70s, 60 years ago when they were just like, yeah, yeah, put a pool there.
Yeah, yeah.
If you get a house, you get a pool because there's not a lot of space.
Right.
A TV costs $100,000.
Yep.
We're on the same page.
This is what we spend our money on.
And that's what the Trump tax cuts are all about too.
You know, the $5,000, you can remodel your kitchen or whatever the fuck Gary Cohn said.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
He said remodel your kitchen yeah with
the five thousand dollars do you have any idea how much money those motherfuckers will charge you
anything that's gonna be the error that five grand is gonna be the error in what he estimated right
exactly yeah uh sorry we went over by $15,000. Yes.
You got a waterfall.
What is something you think is overrated?
Discourse.
Discourse?
No, I'm just kidding.
I think winning an argument is overrated.
Okay.
Very mature.
Because you, no, and it's not fun.
But I do think winning, no one truly wins when you try to win.
You know what I mean?
Right.
Because usually it's two people that already are engaged with each other,
have some kind of relationship.
Right.
So when you start arguing and you want to win it,
that's basically saying, like, I want them to feel bad and know,
and then this will affect our relationship.
It's a power move more than anything.
Yeah, right.
Right.
Well, because someone will eventually be rhetorically vanquished.
Yes.
You know what I mean?
And then they're going to have to be like, ugh.
And the truth of the matter is no one truly wins an argument
because of perspective.
Right.
Because everyone's perspective of what's fair is different
and what's wrong is different and what's right.
You know what's a bigger power move?
Letting the other person win.
Oh, I do it all the time.
And then being like, oh, yeah, you're right.
And I'm like, gaslighting you.
I don't think you're right.
You just passive aggressively
leave evidence that they were wrong
in various places.
Just leave it up on your computer.
Do you even need to know?
Yeah, that's the thing too.
Why do I need to win this argument?
Because I know I'm right and this is wasting everyone's time.
It's just like I need this person
to know that I know the truth.
That's just
for your ego and yeah without it it's all for your ego because they're never going to be like
oh you're completely right i'm less of a person than you know right thank you that's what my ego
wanted to yes you're like thank you now i can go on about my day i'm the best yeah that happened
i remember especially too when i was engaging more with like people on the right in the tea
party era when i was working in politics when like you would just I there's a part of me who's like I need to
dismantle this fucking person right and then I was also kind of like a I already know this is not
gonna work but also I just have to feel like too I have to respect that this person is that is just
in the place that this person is and like I can't I can't take it on myself to be the person who's going to be like, let me bring you over to this side so you can understand it.
And you just kind of have to, yeah.
It was a lot of banging my head against the wall until I sort of learned that lesson too.
Especially when things that were, like the stakes seemed higher with what I was discussing.
And then now I just, get in an argument with me.
I'll just roll over every time.
Well it depends on what you're arguing about.
Right.
And sometimes I enjoy arguing, like the process of it.
The repartee.
Well like introducing new ideas to, like quote.
Right, yeah, yeah.
Like sometimes if you can do it without emotions,
which is impossible, but if you can quell those emotions it is very
interesting and you do learn a lot about each other yeah through doing that so there's nothing
wrong with it but trying to win yeah the winning silly no yeah yeah like unless you're in like a
debate club or something like that that's fascinating to me like how debate and you're
like well you're like well who truly wins and're like, when you watch those things, no one wins.
You're just judging on technique.
Right.
How fast you can fit a paragraph.
Do you remember who the best debaters were in your high school?
No.
In my mind, they were all the stoners.
Oh, really?
It was wild, yeah.
They're always secret like, yo, that dude gets fucking high after school.
Because then he can think about different perspectives.
That's why you're good at debating.
Because he speaks so fast in two minutes.
I feel like people need to believe that it's their decision to accept a fact or to change their mind.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, like anytime you are winning in any satisfying way, it's basically some version of you like moving someone's perspective or believing you are.
So, like, I don't know.
Yeah, I agree.
You just need to sort of say your piece
and then cut bait if they're not coming along for the ride.
Well, I do this in my act now.
You should check me out live.
I'm really great.
You will go to heaven, right, if you go to your show?
That is true.
I'm still touring on that.
Yes, if you come to my show, it's usually around $10.
You will get into heaven when you die.
Many.
Guaranteed.
Multiple orgasms.
Yes.
I can't guarantee the orgasm part, but I've heard heaven's great.
Well, not at the show, but at some point.
Not at the show.
No, absolutely not.
I do not guarantee anyone will come at the show.
But when you die, you will go to heaven, and if you don't, come see me, and I'll give you
your money.
Fantastic.
Right. So it's a pretty good guarantee. So what were you saying? When you die, you will go to heaven, and if you don't, come see me, and I'll give you your money. That's fantastic.
So it's a pretty good guarantee.
So what were you saying?
Well, it's like the people that think they can shock electrically the gay out of someone.
Right there, when you say that, you're like, well, we're done having a conversation because I can't.
Where you're coming from, I can't ever get to.
We're on different planets. Yeah, so we can't have this conversation,
because that is, it's scientifically not true,
and there's facts and proof about that,
but you'd be like, nah, I think it can happen.
You're like, well, we're done.
See ya.
So, okay.
Scientists have a liberal gay agenda.
What is something that you think is underrated?
Subtly sneak down.
What is underrated?
Yeah.
God damn it.
You know what?
Football.
If I'm being... It sucks.
It sucks that I have to say it, but I was watching it this weekend, and I just said
to my fiancee slash baby mama.
Oh, whoa.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
I didn't know if that was public.
I didn't realize if we said it if we were recording no earphones
on when i told you i wasn't even listening what it's out wow it's not the first time
why aren't you excited i'm like i'm very excited but i also know what is coming right you're in
the preparation phase so yes i am on no sugar and doing hot yoga every morning that's not a joke
because just like preparing your body yes really yeah because
touring's harder than it used to be because i'm a little older so i have to get in better shape
and then yeah i know what's coming so when you're on tour what do you are you riding a bike from
venue to venue no but just traveling man like oh it's really starts to wear you down well like
being on an airplane twice a week is tough because you literally traveling you know 405
an hour and then
you're in different time zones at different times and your sleep schedule is different okay
your adrenaline's up for no reason at eight o'clock has anyone ever studied why air travel
is so fucking exhausting because it just is like something because your body's traveling it's like
when you're when you drive to san francisco why after six hours you're tired and you just sit there.
It's because your body's actually moving 80 miles an hour the whole time, even though you don't feel like it.
I've looked into it.
Really?
Because it was that thing of like, why am I getting so tired?
Yeah.
And it's because you don't realize you're doing stuff.
And also dehydration, they say, at high elevations.
And also just the fucking sound.
The farting. Oh. What? Yeah. No, that too. Yo, I say, at high elevations. And also just the fucking sound. The farting.
Oh.
What?
Yeah.
No, that too.
Yo, I fart so much on the plane.
It's crazy.
Do you fart a lot on the plane?
Yeah.
My diet's all right right now.
Have you ever taken a half empty water bottle on with you and it just crushes and then expands?
Or you take the top off and it's like all the gas comes out. That's what happens
inside of me every time I'm on a plane.
It is a fucking nightmare.
I feel safe because I know it's pure gas
and it won't smell.
I indulge the farting.
It does smell.
It does smell.
The flight attendant also comes up to me.
You just did the gay shocking thing of fucking farts.
No, you can't smell my farts.
No, these are stealth.
It's an airplane.
You can't smell farts.
They're stealth.
That's doesn't.
I mean, like, they'll have gas, but they have more like a poo preview type fart.
Yeah, yeah.
You know what I mean?
Oh, I know what you're talking about.
You know what I mean?
This isn't a trailer to a film.
Yeah.
This is like a one-off sketch.
It's just like a release of tension.
It's like,
yeah.
Yeah.
Hey,
you need to do something.
Flight attendants crop dust us if we're rude to them on a plane.
I've been crop dusted by every person on it.
I mean,
yeah,
that's why I don't sit in the aisle.
Speaking of children traveling with them,
not great.
Underratedly bad thing.
I mean,
and people get mad at the parents
yeah you know shut the baby up and it's like i travel all the time so i should be really annoyed
but it's i also have a kid so it's like yeah it's not easy and it's the best way to get them from
here to the other place and it's most of them are good my son he's nine now and he's always been
really good at traveling. Really?
Oh, it's been a blessing.
Even at two?
Yeah.
I took him at like nine months. Jackson's trying to find a hole.
What do you mean?
I took him at nine months, and he was like great.
He was flying the plane?
Yeah.
I fell asleep, and he had crawled up, and he slit one of the pilot's throats.
Uh-oh.
And went, shh.
I overlooked some of his behavior.
I'm the captain.
Because I was like, hey, the murder was bad,
but you do know how to fly this plane.
That landing was feather-touching.
What's impressive?
What kind of football is underrated, though?
Oh, yeah.
We digress.
I just think that, okay, that's what I was saying to her.
I was like, I love the game.
Yes.
I love it.
It's fun to watch.
It's fascinating.
It's an interesting game.
It's exciting.
There are glaring problems that I just wish we would address and fix.
Right.
Because it is like people are like, you got to ban it.
And boy, I'm like, I can't.
I can't.
I like watching it in the fall.
I've done it since I was born.
My dad's a football coach.
I didn't play in college because I recognized it was dangerous.
Right.
But I played and enjoyed it.
But that's my thing is like if they would just come out and say,
hey, if you play this professionally,
there's a huge chance your brain's going to get fucked up.
Right.
But you're going to get paid a lot.
So can you sign this thing?
It's like when you go up in one of those giant things where it swings you in like Myrtle Beach.
Right.
You have to sign your name on that thing and be like, which is even dumber because you're paying them and signing a pay.
So I have a hard time with that i mean i think they
should just come out because they're worried about back pay of all these motherfuckers right right
which is like it's like the va they should take care of them that should be a system
you all made all that money off their bodies crazy amounts of money yeah but the owners are
you know extremely wealthy modern day plantation owners-day plantation owners. Modern-day plantation owners.
The metaphor fits too well.
They're among the least generous people in the universe.
So you were watching NFL football this weekend?
I was watching both of them.
I like watching college football because it's more fun.
It's sadder because none of them are getting paid.
Some of them are getting paid.
Shout out to the boosters.
I mean, yeah, all of them of them i mean i went on the tiger
walk in high school at auburn and we weren't allowed to shake people's hands because they
because people were sliding the money oh like for sure they would or there was a chance that they
would it's like if you get your hands shook it's because it's money well there was this definitely
a certain part of the walk where we were for sure.
Oh, wow.
You know, because there's fans, there's little kids slapping your hand,
but then there's a certain part where you're just like,
you could tell, fancy people.
And then our little tigerette was like,
hey, do not shake anyone's hand right through here, blah, blah.
And I was like, yo, I'm for sure not coming here.
Why can't I?
Yeah, right.
Just let me shake some hands.
That guy just has a briefcase taped to his hand. He's like, nice to meet you, shake some hands right that guy just has a briefcase like taped nice to meet you sir briefcase glad and they think they're helping
the you know it's like people they don't even know through the you know it's just like yahoo's
from alabama being like i slipped him a 50 because we need a punter you know what i mean right so
they're getting money all over the place yeah what's a myth what is something that most people
think is true that you know to be false?
Oh, that I heard a friend of mine say that he was like,
that's why I like sports is it's the best always come out on top.
The best come in.
I was like, no, that is not true at all.
And he's like, it's not political once they're out on the field.
I was like, that's not true at all either.
How do you think those teams are for? Everything is political. And they're like, well, no, it's the best athlete're out on the field. I was like, that's not true at all either. How do you think those teams are for?
Everything is political.
They're like, well, no, it's the best athlete to get on the team.
I was like, no, dude, I've played at a pretty high level in certain sports.
To get to a certain level, yeah, it is.
You have to be a certain amount of athlete.
But after that, it's mostly politics.
That's what I think is a myth that like especially when money's involved
it's not oh yeah it's all done after that yeah uh all right we're gonna take a quick break and
then we're gonna talk about the president's day

How do you feel about biscuits?
Hi, I'm Akilah Hughes, and I'm so excited about my new podcast, Rebel Spirit,
where I head back to my hometown in Kentucky and try to convince my high school to change
their racist mascot, the Rebels,
into something everyone in the South loves, the Biscuits.
I was a lady rebel.
Like, what does that even mean?
The Boone County Rebels will stay the Boone County Rebels with the image of the Biscuits.
It's right here in black and white in print.
A lion.
An individual that came to the school saying that God sent him to talk to me about the mascot switch.
As a leader, you choose hills that you want to die on. Why would we want to be the losing team?
I just take all the other stuff out of it. Segregation academies, when civil rights
said that we need to integrate public schools, these charter schools were exempt from that.
Bigger than a flag or mascot. You have to be ready for serious backlash.

We're your hosts, Diosa and Mala, and you might recognize us from our flagship podcast, Locatora Radio.
We're so excited for you to hear our brand new podcast,
Señora Sex Ed.
Listen to Señora Sex Ed on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back.
And this morning, we were excited.
We thought a new Mario Kart game
Was out when we checked Google Trends
Twitter
Mario Kart's trending
Toastel, that would be a reboot
With Twitch, yeah
Mario Kart's hot right now
For sure
And then we clicked it
And it turns out
What was it?
It's because Stormy Daniels, in her upcoming book,
described the president's penis as being like that one character in Mario Kart.
Yeah, she, well, the whole thing.
Yoshi, weirdly.
It's clean and, no.
She describes Trump's penis as, quote, smaller than average.
But not freakishly small.
Smaller than your average Papa Twist cabbage.
And then she put, quote, he knows he has an unusual penis.
It has a huge mushroom head, like a toadstool.
I lay there annoyed that I was getting fucked by a guy with Yeti pubes
and a dick like the mushroom character in Mario Kart.
Wow.
It may have been the least impressive sex I'd ever had, but clearly he didn't share
that opinion.
God.
Stormy is...
I mean, yeti pubes is my favorite thing.
He knows he has an unusual penis.
This could be the explanation, the behind the music for every billionaire out there.
Yeah.
He knows.
Yeah.
He gets that he has a weird dick.
Almost definitely.
And also for you to say that,
he would have to acknowledge the weird dick.
Right.
Because she knows if she's saying, oh, he knows.
Right.
He's like, okay.
He like took it out and was like, yeah.
Yes, I think that's the part of the conversation
you don't want.
Like you don't want to be in the conversation
or a conversation being had about you
where someone says,
he knows he has a weird penis.
Right.
Like just that,
you're just like,
ah,
this is worse than the weird penis I have right now,
I'll be honest.
Yeah.
Check out my porcini.
But it also explains more so
why he pays for so much sex.
Right.
That explains it to me because I was always curious because he's so cocky and arrogant about how he looks good.
And he like when he was younger, he was like a good looking dude and, you know, an athletic looking.
So the amount of sex he paid for that always i was always curious like
that doesn't go together because that's such a thing that's connected to people like that
to dudes like that is i don't have to fucking pay for it you know what i mean yeah yeah but now it's
like i if you always had a weird mushroom dick and you were also very egotistical yeah you'd be
like hey don't tell anyone about the thing.
Right.
The what?
The what?
Exactly.
Yeah, you're a good one.
Plus, you can only fuck so many of your friend's wives.
I mean, come on.
Like that trick where you trap them into admitting
Well, you can only come on to them like a bitch so many times
before people call you a bitch.
What do you think is Yeti pubes?
So, I've been thinking about this all day.
All night and all day.
I think it must be that he is un-groomed and also-
Graying?
Yeah, graying and that there are like some twigs and leaves caught in there.
He just drags them through the bush.
Lost climbers.
And there's like ice on there too.
It's frostbitten.
Ice like a climber's beard.
Right. Like a climber's beard. Right.
Like a climber's beard.
It looks like his pubes live north of the wall.
Why is it so cold down here?
Yeah, you just go down there and your breath starts like being appearing.
There's a Nepalese man down there.
He's like, don't come in here.
Turn back.
Turn back.
Wonkette.
Was it Wonkette?
It was a Wonkette, yeah.
They were like, we don't know exactly what Yeti pubes means, but this is a picture of
Trump's mother's hair.
Okay.
And it's amazing.
Her hair.
Mary Trump's hair is-
Absurd, memorably absurd hair runs in the family.
They're like, oh, we have weird hair.
It is the answer to the question, like, what the fuck is wrong with him? And then you see an interview with his parents, you're like, oh, we have weird hair. It is the answer to the question.
What the fuck is wrong with him?
And then you see an interview with his parents.
Oh, okay.
I see.
Got it.
Got it.
Got it and got it.
I don't know what her hairstyle is either.
That's a wild comb over bouffant.
It's the emperor has no clothes kind of shit is what that is.
I don't care for Donald.
Can I just say that's what Gucci and Versace's doing right now?
What's that?
It's just like all their style is some emperor's, the emperor has-
They're fucking with people, you think?
It's just, some of it is so over the top and silly and looks insane.
Oh, you were just at New York Fashion Week, right?
I was not there.
They don't invite me.
Anymore.
Not with these takes.
Anymore because I'm like, what is this? And I can't stop giggling
at anyone taking fashion as serious as some of those people take fashion. They're closed. They
cover up our private parts is mostly what it is. Yeah. Well, I think some fashion is interesting,
like from an aesthetic point of view. I know. I know. We know. We're making jokes, but of course,
we live in the culture where people go, he's too myopic with his point of view. I know, I know. We know. We're making jokes, but of course, we live in the culture where people go,
he's too myopic with his understanding of fashion.
Yeah, it's like I'm making a joke for comedic purposes,
but fashion is silly.
Yeah, well, I think at that level,
when people are like, I was brought to tears by a jacket.
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah, by a jacket.
That kind of taking it to...
Yeah, fashion's cool.
I'm not knocking it, but you know.
But I think that's the funniest version of taking it to... Yeah, fashion's cool. I'm not knocking it, but, you know. But I think that's the funniest version of taking things to...
Like, anybody that takes anything too serious is funny.
It's funny, but when it's about clothes to me,
I don't know why that's the funny.
Like inanimate objects.
And it's like the lines.
But I guess art, too, you know, if you look at art.
Without it, oh, that's funny, too,
because people can be over the top.
Oh, you used to see, man, I remember as a kid,
just because my dad being an artist,
the people I'd be around, was like yo what this people this woman
was like crying or this dude was crying over like a fucking sculpture or something i didn't get as a
kid but i get it you know you're moved people are moved by different ways i was moved by a fucking
uh commercial the other day so who the fuck am i it is yes and i was explaining to somebody the
other day because they're like i was talking about some commercial directors and my friend was like why do you care about that and i'm like because those are going
to be the dudes that right and right those dudes can do in 30 seconds yeah all the emotions they
can make you feel in 30 seconds yeah that's crazy yes the nike ads are oh well the one the mexico
one with the women the mexico nike ad with the women? The Mexico Nike ad
with the women running through the streets.
I was like, yo, go.
It has the best final shot of any ad ever.
I was like, y'all go do it.
We'll link that in the footnotes.
Any of those athletic
commercials, if they're that
good, that by the end you're like,
I think I'm going to go hit someone.
I cried at the PlayStation commercial that called they call it second life where like I have or like another
life where people like they all kinds of different people oh yeah when I play video games like I
command armies yeah man and this dude is like disabled man I see like the power of another
world anyway so Trump's dick looks like a mushroom. Trump's dick? Moving on.
A mushroom.
I love that.
By the way, the only person who's ever convinced me that fashion matters is Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada.
That speech she gives where she's like, you think that that blue is unimportant, but...
And then she explains how the color blue that someone's wearing trickles down through all these different fashion seasons and shit.
It's a great speech, people.
Go YouTube it.
Let's talk about the Kavanaugh allegations because there are just some wild takes coming from the right.
Laura Ingraham is, so on her radio show.
Radio show?
Well, it was on the, so on her radio show,
she just took a bunch of calls from people.
Oh, that's where it got, okay, got you.
That they were sexual abuse victims,
and that because they were sexual abuse victims,
they could tell that Christine Blasey Ford
was making up her allegation to get attention.
Yeah, and it was just a very disgusting way to try and
discredit this woman by using these other women's trauma i mean yeah this so she put a super cut
together and be like well listen to people who have actually been victims of abuse and how they
listen to the people we believe right exactly so this is laura Laura Ingram being so fucking classy.
There were a number of women who called into my radio show today, Juanita, who had actually been victims of rape and other sexual assault.
This is a montage of what some of them said.
When I was 19, I was sexually abused. I know I've never forgotten the situation.
And I cannot believe that this woman suddenly remembered now.
I was raped 40 years ago, and I'm absolutely furious, and I know that this is a last-minute ploy again by the left. Having background myself of being a rape victim, you do not go about this the way this is coming out.
This is for attention, and that does a horrible service to people that have actually
had everything taken from them i used to be a democratic i will never vote democratic again
she used to be a democratic yes that's how you can tell yeah that's how democrats refer to
themselves it is a weird thing to immediately be like this woman who's saying this, I've been, this has happened to me,
and the way she's going about this
is this is purely about the left.
Right.
Well, that's a weird leap.
Yes.
Yeah.
Well, this is the thing the right does all the time, too,
and then if the issue is racism,
then they have people of color come out and be like,
well, this isn't racist, and I'm black,
so you should trust what I say. Like, you know use whatever the the group in question is
and then find people who are aligned with that thinking to discredit someone who's has a divergent
idea of how life works well and it's always to me it's not a real conversation it's like right
it's clearly you're you're not being honest about your position if you have to go get this person to qualify what you're saying.
Right, right.
That's that you're not being honest about why you're doing what you're doing.
Yeah, you're just trying to collect sound bites.
That's the whole problem, my problem with the right in general.
And I'm like I say this every time, I'm somewhere in the middle.
I don't really lean left I mean I do when it comes to progressive issues but I thought we had that worked out that all
people were people but we didn't it turns out so it turns out I do lean to the left now because
that because that sentiment has somehow is a left it's a left thing that all human beings are the same right and
I'm not saying like oh that we can all dunk a basketball what I'm saying is like we all have
the same rights yeah and we should have dignity we have dig we can lead dignified lives yeah be
treated with dignity and respect yeah yes and then but I think that this whole argument about
the left had to bring it to this because the way the right was playing the game
if for no less for lack of a better term that's what this is right this whole right and left
getting on getting power is a game they're playing a game with these rules and the right were breaking
and playing real shady and loose with the fucking rules about what they're presenting.
So the left had to come in and be like,
fucking raped a girl when he was 17, all right?
Or attempted to rape.
Yeah, or whatever, you know what I mean?
So now the left doesn't want to play this card,
but that's all they've been given.
Well, because they were like, you know, we could also get him on the stuff.
It seemed like he was committing perjury.
And all this other stuff, but we're not allowed to do that.
Or you haven't given us any of his documents.
You've hidden all this stuff that we're not allowed to talk about now.
So now we have to destroy this nice doctor's life.
Right.
And it's something that she had been wrestling with since July when she had seen that his name was being floated to be a potential replacement for Justice Kennedy.
And that's when she began trying to figure out, like, was really wrestling with the idea,
according to like the Washington Post reporter she was talking to also of knowing, like, if I do this,
this is going to put me and my family just center stage and be on the receiving end of such insane insidious shit right and lo and behold yeah
now you have people just at this point now trying to discredit your strangers calling in being like
hey this happened to me and she's lying right like what yep that's a weird thing yeah no it is
and that's odd because if you are a victim of abuse why would you perpetrate that sort of same
thing that keeps women from wanting to come up like oh this is for attention like that's a very odd argument yeah to to deploy against
somebody who is clearly not doing this for the attention just feels that this person is in the
ascendancy and could reach a place that is not good for you know well it's also funny that laura
ingram is like i mean people that don't have their minds made up
about the left and right aren't listening
to Laura Ingraham's program.
Right, right, right.
So those people calling in aren't gonna be like,
no, she's telling the truth.
That's why it doesn't surprise me that they identify
with the right more than they identify with a fellow victim.
Did she provoke the calls? Did she provoke the calls?
Like did she ask the calls?
Oh, I'm sure.
Because that's not, that to me also isn't something
that a montage of people just decided to call.
Right, yeah.
Right, that's not.
And that'd be odd, we'd be like,
hi, if you're a victim of sexual abuse,
please call in to tell us why we shouldn't believe
this person.
Exactly.
Like what?
Yeah, it's like there's some questions there.
There was also a Kavanaugh spokesperson who was on CNN who kind of raised the question
of whether it is attempted rape, as she seems to think it was, or rough horseplay.
That is, you know, we don't really even need to go into it.
The CNN anchor was like, wait, I don't think anyone was saying rough horseplay here uh but you know it was i don't know that seems to be
like they're making multiple arguments one it didn't happen i know for a fact it didn't happen
that's brett kavanaugh's argument and then there's the other people who are like it happened 36 years
ago he was a drunk teen he was drunk and she's probably misremembering it.
And, you know, it's just like a lot of different arguments.
Yeah, one acknowledges that it probably did happen,
but it's like, well, but if it did,
it's because he was 17 and drunk or whatever.
Right.
And they're like, well, that shouldn't disqualify him.
It is weird that he's their guy.
He's their moral dude.
Right. That you can't kill babies and you can't you know like that he's that dude that's gonna come in allegedly and then the same
people that need him to come in and be the moral crusader or like hey you's drunk right hey right
oh well because in the end it's weird it well, because it's not really about the morality.
Yeah, I know. But yeah, exactly.
But the charade is all about trying to project this when really they don't give a fuck.
They need to get this person who is going to favor on the side with corporations to deregulate shit and crush unions or whatever.
And it's like, OK, maybe he fucked around, but that's not the point.
We just need this other conservative vote in the Supreme.
Yeah, we need these crazies to have our back.
And I mean, crazies. And I'm sorry if you think that i'm being a dick but if you're so crazy
about abortion that that's the only thing you vote on you're crazy that's a cra you are crazy you are
not a sane person because it doesn't make sense because you're usually pro-death penalty. So that negates me ever talking to you in a logical fucking way.
Chloe Angel tweeted, she was drunk.
This rape is her fault.
And then he was drunk.
This rape isn't his fault.
And I feel like that definitely sums up the two sides of that.
So clearly this is such a big story.
This is going to be the headline on Drudge, which is like the main, like we talked about before, it has more traffic than the New York Times. So it is sort of low. This is something he loves to focus on,
ratings dropping on anything that-
Liberal award shows.
Yeah, liberal award shows, the Oscars, the Emmys, the NFL,
which is now like a liberal event somehow.
Well, that's because the kneeling,
see what happens,
was I think that's the connection they're trying to make.
Right, yeah.
Well, he just wants to destroy the NFL
because they wouldn't let him be a part of their club.
Right.
That's the whole reason.
Trump.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
That's the whole reason.
Yeah.
So anyways, that's what they're focusing on.
And I guess the Emmys did happen.
So we can briefly.
I wonder, though, if Drudge, right, I think even we've seen from time to time there are
some things that are so bad, even on Drudge, they can't deny how bad the optics are.
Like when Manafort is pleading out or is found guilty or whatever.
Yeah, the headline was like, this isn't good.
Yeah, it was like, uh-oh, you're fucked kind of thing.
Trump hell week or hell hour.
And I think even for Drudge, they're like, they know, even for Drudge, it's like that's kind of an indefensible position to try and come out and be like, well, he was 17.
Right.
I think even seems like a bit too much.
I don't know.
It's odd that they just kind of buried it lower and lower.
Yeah, it's still out there.
It's just three different headlines that are all, you know, different takes on she is going to testify or maybe she won't.
And, you know, here's something that casts it in a favorable
light to Kavanaugh but yeah I mean another thing is that this whole story that like ratings drop
lower and lower is just like that happens on every event in every channel for the most part like
there's just a downward trend because there's more and more shit on TV.
More and more of it is on streaming platforms.
So all ratings are going lower and lower.
Did you watch Emmys?
I did not, but... I saw clips on Twitter,
and I couldn't get excited about the Emmys.
I don't think I've ever been excited about the Emmys.
I don't watch them.
I get excited about many.
I watch the Bears and the Seahawks.
That's what I end up watching.
Before I changed it to the Bears and the Seahawks. I watched, before I changed it to the Bears and the Seahawks,
I turned the TV on.
It was on the Emmys, and I saw SNL was on stage,
like the whole cast, and Lorne Michaels was accepting the Emmy
and somehow framing both Saturday Night Live and NBC as a network,
as like underdogs who nobody believed in like nobody said that this
network of nbc would ever make it but here we are winning this emmy and the emmys are on nbc
so face uh is that what he was kind of saying i mean it was hosted by the snl dudes and there
were snl cast members or former SNL cast members
like sprinkled throughout.
Yeah, like Bill Hader won.
Bill Hader won.
Yeah, Mulaney won.
Former SNL writer John Mulaney.
Maya Rudolph and Fred Armisen
were both like had multiple bits
throughout the show.
So yeah, it seems like
that was just a weird angle
for him to take.
But that is a good example of why it's hard to communicate struggle with people.
Right.
Because to him, he's like, we overcame a lot this year.
And you're like, you're all multi-millionaires.
Yeah.
He's out here playing Drake, worst behavior.
Yeah.
You're all fucking never done.
And you're on a show that's never gonna get canceled right so you
don't have to worry about that you are a machine you're the machine maybe he was talking about when
he left snl for that little bit yeah he's like yeah and they said you know 30 years
so lauren i mean from the bottom now i'm the executive producer of SNL, of The Tonight Show,
of Late Night with Seth.
Like everything, basically.
With, I think,
Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
He's a producer on that.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
No, he's crushing it.
He owns comedy.
So, Portlandia,
he did that.
He produces this podcast,
actually.
Just all comedy.
We just found out.
What?
And we're now
one of more.
And if any of you think I'm talking negatively of him,
you are wrong.
No, absolutely.
He's a genius.
Demonstrating, well, more than anything,
demonstrating how much he is not losing.
No, he's not losing.
And if he said he'd overcome, I guess he did.
I guess he's right.
In the recap that I listened to on NPR this morning,
Game of Thrones was also considered an underdog
because they won and, like, Handmaid's Tale didn't.
That's what I thought.
I mean, that's like Star Wars people calling themselves nerds.
Right, like nobody thought.
It's the most popular movie of all time.
You're not a nerd.
But Game of Thrones, I guess a bunch of people who were part of big shows were not expected to win and then won.
So that was like people were surprised by that.
Hey, I'm glad.
I am glad that Henry Winkler won, though.
Yeah.
He was actually really good.
He's so good in Barry.
And Bill Hader, too.
I was really impressed.
I was really shocked when I watched Barry.
I was like, what the fuck is Bill Hader?
I heard like really emoting like a motherfucker.
Oh, I always had a feeling that dude was talented in another way.
I didn't deny his talent, but when you really see it,
it was really like, I was like, wow, okay, this dude is really good.
He might win an Emmy.
Hader was like one of the sketch people that the first time he was on screen
on SNL, you're like, who the fuck is this dude?
Because he could emote as other human beings, I would believe.
Have you seen Skeleton Twins?
Yes.
Dude, he's so good in that.
Yes, and it's not great.
No, no, it's not a great movie.
But it is really notable for how good his performance was.
Yes.
My impression of Barry at first, I was like,
is he not trying for the first episode?
And then it really was sort of a very nuanced performance
where by the end you were like, holy shit.
Yeah, because he was shedding shit
even as his character developed in the season.
The dude who should have won was his Marine buddy,
who was a wild dude with a shaved head.
Also, Anthony Kerrigan, the dude who played the...
The bald kid?
The bald dude.
That dude is so fucking good, man.
He deserves every piece of metal there is.
That dude is hilarious.
He's like, oh, you still mad at me, buddy?
Yeah.
That kind of disposition is weird.
Yeah, that's great.
Black Mirror actually won, which I had never seen the dude who created Black Mirror.
Charlie something, Charlie Britton guy, Booker.
Charlie Britton guy? Heer. Charlie Britton guy?
He's going to write an episode about that.
About podcasting.
Yeah, yeah.
Getting your name wrong and what happens.
Podcast, yeah, like got in your brain and like you went like fucking crazy or something.
Yeah, all right, yeah.
Print it.
Print it.
Like what if a mirror, yeah, stopped working and it just went black?
I think it'll be good if we get the most talented actors on the planet to do it.
Yeah, right, exactly.
Yes.
People are like, isn't that show good?
You're like, yes.
I mean, the budget seems to help.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, it's so good, though.
It's like seeing a simple sketch on paper where you're like, this isn't that funny.
And then, like, moderate. You're like, let me turn it up't that funny. And then like moderate actors are like, it's all right.
Yeah, I was right.
It's fine.
And then like talent come on.
You're like, this is the funniest sketch I've ever seen.
Right.
Yeah.
Exactly.
All right.
We're going to take another quick break.
We'll be right back.

How do you feel about biscuits?
Hi, I'm Akilah Hughes,
and I'm so excited about my new podcast, Rebel Spirit,
where I head back to my hometown in Kentucky and try to convince my high school to change their racist mascot, the Rebels, into something everyone in the South loves, the Biscuits.
I was a lady rebel. Like, what does that even mean?
The Boone County Rebels will stay the Boone County Rebels with the image of the Biscuits.
It's right here in black and white in the prints. A lion. An individual that came to the school saying that God sent him to talk to me about the mascot switch.
As a leader, you choose hills that you want to die on.
Why would we want to be the losing team?
I'd just take all the other stuff out of it.
On the segregation academies, when civil rights said that we need to integrate public schools,
these charter schools were exempt from that.
Bigger than a flag or mascot.
You have to be ready for serious backlash.

Señora Sex Ed is not your mommy sex talk.
This show is la plática like you've never heard it before.
We're breaking the stigma and silence around sex and sexuality in Latinx communities.
This podcast is an intergenerational conversation between Latinas from Gen X to Gen Z.
We're covering everything from body image to representation in film and television.
We even interview iconic Latinas like Puerto Rican actress Ana Ortiz.
I felt in control of my own physical body and my own self.
I was on birth control.
I had sort of had my first sexual experience.
If you're in your Senora era or know someone who is, then this is the show for you.

And we're back, and it is worth mentioning uh i kind of glossed over it because it's just one of
the drudge headlines but there is still uncertainty about whether dr blazy ford is going to actually
testify on monday uh and make it like not like she might not be able to make it, but there are questions about whether lawyers will be present,
whether her lawyer should speak for her,
just because it is a very,
I mean,
it is one of the most precarious positions a human being can be in to be
like at the center of this political debate with the entire world,
or at least all of America,
just like looking at every micro gesture,
trying to determine if you're a trustworthy individual.
Somewhere Anita Hill just went, thank you.
Yes, exactly.
Actually, Anita Hill wrote an op-ed today
suggesting that the senators should get training
before they ask questions or cede their time
to people who are experts at
examining this sort of thing i would say that probably a lot of the senators need training
in how email works in general if we're just being honest about what they need training in right like
yeah like they don't even under like from what i've heard is like there's a large group of
senators who are so fucking old and have been there for so long.
They don't understand a lot of technology.
Oh, no.
And how people communicate now.
Yeah.
So think about that.
And then they're going to ask a lady about sex.
Right.
Ma'am, if you knew your vagina was in your pants, why did you enter the office of a man with a penis?
No, yeah.
I mean, you could even tell when, I think it was maybe Orrin.
No, Chuck Grassley patted himself on the back because he said some of the Kavanaugh documents
were available as a PDF.
And it was like, they're there as a PDF.
And I'm like, okay.
Oh, no.
Yeah, let's have a parade now. So Elon Musk, I guess there as a PDF. I'm like, okay. Oh, no. Yeah, let's have a parade now.
So Elon Musk, I guess there's a-
Good transition.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I've been working on it.
Elon Musk has a trip planned to the moon.
Yeah.
Is that accurate?
We found out they finally booked the first private trip to the moon.
Okay.
To land upon the moon. Okay. To land upon the moon.
Okay.
And do it not since the Apollo missions.
I thought they were just going to circle it and then come back.
I think that's the first one.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're not landing yet.
No, no, no.
But they want to see the moon.
They're up close and personal.
I mean, that's cool.
And then so yesterday, or was it Monday?
I think they, so there was, we found out who this person was.
And it's this Japanese billionaire, Yusaku Maezawa.
It's my voice, cracks.
He's the 18th richest man.
And he's basically going to go like up with a bunch of artists.
He's like a huge art collector.
Like he bought like, he has like Picassos and like Basquiat's and stuff.
Like he's, he loves art.
He's fun.
Yeah.
So he's, he's bringing eight artists to the journey.
He's going to kill eight artists.
And they say they're going to see the moon up close
and the earth in full view and create work
to reflect their experience.
That's a dope thing to do with that.
Hey bro, I'll take you. You can see the moon.
But you've got to make me some art.
Moon art. I would say it would be
inspired. I would be inspired if I saw
the moon up close. Maybe you could be one of the artists. I don't it would be inspired. I would be inspired if I saw the moon up close.
Maybe you could be one of the artists.
I don't want to be.
I can say that.
Well, maybe.
Yeah, we should have a campaign to get a comedian also on that flight.
I would say some funny shit there.
Be like, hey.
Just making a joke out of it.
Oh, so Kubrick got a lot of this wrong.
Yeah.
Just stuff like that.
There's no wind up here.
There's no wind up here.
Yeah, I think a lot of people
were also you know talking about how this you know there needed to be a little bit of money
for spacex to kind of begin developing uh one of their rockets a little bit further so by having
this guy tag along you know it helps add a little money when is coffers and i think i had 2023
oh see now my son won't be old enough.
Like,
they need to be grown
and like have a,
their first job
or something before.
I'm like,
I'm gonna get,
I'm gonna go see the moon kids.
Right, right, right.
And they're like,
no, you're a dick.
You're like,
you know what?
Yeah, you're right.
I need to raise you first.
It was funny though.
They were interviewing like,
it's so funny how things
become more and more attainable
to non-experts.
Like, you know,
everything's kind of become
easier to access.
Like if it's art or photography or making music,
like there aren't those barriers.
The democratization of art.
And like now we're seeing it with like space though.
And it was funny to hear like astronauts be like,
yeah, what do you think about this?
Like, yeah, I guess, man.
Yeah, great.
I spent my whole fucking life to go there.
Like, yeah, everybody can go now.
Sure, I haven't had carbs in 17 years.
But yeah, they're saying, like, I think people believe that Maezawa's spending between $102 million to go up there.
$100?
Between $100 and $200 million.
I'm sorry, $100 and $200 million.
$100 million and $200 million.
Anywhere between $100 and $200 million to get him and eight friends to take a trip around the moon.
But, like, how much is an economy class ticket? That's what I was going take a trip around the moon but like how much is an
economy class that's what i was gonna say yeah do you think they're like it's 100 million and
he was like you're not trained well he's like how about 200 million okay he's like okay yeah he's
like you want to bring eight friends yeah exactly yeah well it's yeah also shouldn't there be like
a checklist of like you should have done this stuff on the earth first before we take you to the moon?
Like, have you been to the top of Everest?
Right.
No?
Then you need to go do that before we take you to the moon.
Don't just one, two, skip a few, 99, I'm on the moon.
Yeah, exactly.
Yes, exactly.
I think you should go like, hey, have you walked the whole Appalachian Trail?
Ooh, shit.
Well, I'm sure there's going to be a hilarious.
I know a lot of dimmats that have done it. Oh, shit. Well, I'm sure there's going to be a hilarious... I know a lot of dim-bats that have done it.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
I'm sure there's going to be
a hilarious process
wherein they have to train
all these, like, artists,
these fragile artists
to, like, get ready
for written space.
And they're just, like,
dropping them into the bottom
of the world.
It's like a critique.
There's pools in America.
Will there be gluten?
Right.
Gluten.
I don't...
I can't eat certain paste foods.
I have celiacs.
Is that going to be a problem in space?
I feel like, again, this could be a Christopher Guest movie, too.
Oh, hell yeah.
It's the tracking the eight eccentric artists and a Japanese billionaire as they go to space.
Remember how we as a planet shoot those eight people up into space and we watched them die?
Remember that?
Oh, the Challenger?
No, well did we did
do that as a like a nation right and i was remember that day yeah because everyone was excited because
the school teacher was going school teacher they got all the schools involved yep and then we
learned about death in second grade yeah i can still remember what that plume looked like when
it went up i remember they made there's like this, it was like two miles,
there's this little factory, tiny factory, they made little parts.
And they made one of the parts that goes on the space shuttle.
And that was like a big deal before.
The O-ring?
No, it wasn't that, but that was the thing afterwards.
They're like, did that park?
Yeah, shit.
Oh, like in your town they were making that part?
Yeah, it was just like this one. And that like a big deal before yeah the challenger went up it
was like yeah one of the parts came from over there off right oh deep draw road i read a book
that did sort of a deep dive into the decision making process of that it was uh this book the
wisdom of crowds that shows like how crowds like you can use crowds to like guess things really really well
and like how market forces work but then it used that as an example of how not to use crowds and
it was just basically like a couple dudes who were in charge of the whole committee were just like
forcing it through and like when that thing exploded everybody on that committee knew what
went wrong they were like yeah there's a problem like we need to delay this delay it and like there were just people who were just like nah
we push push push push we got to hit this deadline and also there hadn't been a major disaster they
were just like no we're we're good we're fucking nasa we we're crushing your bro and the guys in
apollo 13 were like hey yeah it got not hey, this seemed like a disaster to us.
We didn't get to go.
Another brilliant transition.
So Sean Penn has thoughts on the Me Too movement, fellas.
Came up because in an interview with he and his co-star on an upcoming Hulu series,
she said her performance was informed by the Me Too movement,
and Sean Penn disagreed with her version
of what her performance was informed by.
I think what she said was bullshit.
Right.
I disagree that that was your motivation
when playing this character.
The Me Too movement is designed to divide men and women, was what he said.
So, cool.
Wow.
He says it's too black and white, and it's really good to just slow down.
I don't think that's the problem of Me Too, is it's too black and white.
I think it's a little muddied is the problem right
dude it's so meta the fucking like mansplaining to this his co-star like what her motivation was
in the context of right wow he also has some problematic shit with how he behaved in
relationships from from the 80s also.
Well, I mean, it's...
Also, he has that video with Kid Rock that everybody needs to watch
because that will change how you view Sean Penn
for the rest of your life.
You know what changed?
Well, there's a lot of things that should change
the way you view Sean Penn.
If he's not acting,
you shouldn't pay attention to what he's doing.
It's the same as,
I feel the same way as Kanye.
It's like,
he's an incredible music producer.
Right.
When he does that,
I will watch him.
Right. Other things,
it's like he's bullshitting
with the whole world
and it's funny to me.
Right.
Not when he's tweeting like weird ass,
he's like,
you shouldn't be excited.
People can be manipulated
and then you're like,
what the fuck?
No,
sometimes he lets his toddlers take control of his iPhone and and it's pretty funny he sounds like one of those dudes
who's like tries to explain to you why they dropped out of college and why that actually
made them smarter wait he is that dude oh yeah he made an album very funny wow that's so i just as
i realized i was wrong about that but. Broke, broke, broke.
But you know what I'm talking about?
There are people who are really arrogant about it.
Actually, you know, then I just started reading books,
and I realized, too, what were they going to actually teach me?
Yeah.
And you're like, okay, I just want my pizza, man.
Yeah, exactly.
It's like, yeah, I did that, but I became a comedian.
So I realized, oh, they can't teach me how to do this.
Right, right, right.
So that's what I want to do.
I have a question, just to segue to nothing,
because this is a thing that's been trending recently.
Do you guys eat mayo chup?
Do I eat mayo chup?
That is a complicated question.
I don't even know what it is.
That is a combination of ketchup and mayonnaise together.
Oh, I have. It basically fouls an island without relish. Yeah. I don't even know what it is that is the combination of ketchup and mayonnaise together which i basically thousand island without relish yeah i don't dabble i mean it's not something
i do on the reg but it's something i've done i think it's good on hamburgers really okay certain
fries it'll mask like oh i know what i used to do it on like you know back in the day before dave
died how good wendy's used to be. Yes. Wait, what happened after Dave?
They just changed a lot of shit. What's AD?
Tell me about Wendy's AD.
It's just the quality, the sizes, everything went down.
Oh, really?
Oh, without a doubt.
You know what's funny?
I love Wendy's.
I didn't live close enough to a Wendy's.
Yeah, you were really like, yeah.
Like, take me now.
But yeah, I didn't really eat Wendy's until AD,
the after Dave era, really.
See, I was pre, like, because it was just better.
There weren't many Wendy's around me.
See, I think it was, like, probably the best fast food in our hometown.
So my dad was just like, we go to Wendy's because it's good.
Wendy's was like, and it fell off when Dave died?
Without a doubt, it did.
Wow.
It was like the In-N-Out of the, like, late 70s, early 80s.
Like, it was a local-ish burger place that then came out
and people were like,
it's got square burgers, man.
And they were never frozen.
Yeah, never frozen.
That was his thing.
All the burgers were never frozen,
which is what In-N-Out's thing is too.
But I used to,
when I would go to Wendy's,
the fries,
if you got them right away,
were really good,
but if not,
they would just...
And so that, the mayonnaise thing was a good.
Oh, a little boost up.
Yeah.
A little cover.
Yeah, well now, you know, just asking because Heinz is really going full court press with his mayo chups.
Yeah.
It's trending.
America's real fat, so it'll work.
Yeah.
They love dipping.
It just seems too sweet to me.
I don't know.
I don't.
It's pretty good.
I gave up sugar.
Oh, that's right. Because you and your Zen parental preparation.
Yeah, also because diabetes just runs straight through my fucking family.
So it's like I'm better just chill with it or I'll get it.
And I like sugar.
It's a problem.
You know what I mean?
What do you miss the most?
Right now, nothing because your body doesn't truly need it.
But I'm going to – I've made a deal.
Sorry, my dog is...
Okay, dying.
Slowly dying.
He is 12 years old.
Hey, you're not dying.
Ice cream.
Oh, yeah.
It's the best.
It's so fucking good.
I was just talking yesterday, or I think on Friday,
how I basically ate a half carton of birthday cake ice cream.
Yeah.
With the freezer door open, just blasting me in my underwear.
Do you know Henry Zebrowski?
Yeah, I know who he is.
I don't know him personally.
He and I, I invited you to it,
but you couldn't go because you're in Mexico.
Is it a High Times Party thing?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was in Mexico.
It ended up not.
We walked in and walked out.
It wasn't what we thought it was.
It wasn't as fun as it was.
A High Times Party is never what you think it's going to be.
Yeah, well, we wanted it to be one thing and it was not right uh but we were talking about like oh i
can't have ice cream in my house or i will just eat whatever it's like the amount that's in there
i'll just eat it and it'll be gone because it's awesome it's weird how much i like i'll go to
places where they're like oh i'll get like three scoops or whatever.
And I'm like, yeah.
By the end, I'm like, that was pretty good.
That felt like a good amount of ice cream.
You put a fucking carton in front of me.
I'm like, this shit won't stop.
Until it's done and you're like, oh, can we lick it?
I'm like, wait, if I scrape the cardboard enough, will that become ice cream?
Do people know about Grater's, the ice cream brand?
No.
Ice cream company. It's from Kentucky.
I just realized
they also sell it in Ralph's now.
What's it called? Grater's.
G-R-A-E-T-E-R
apostrophe S.
Do you know Mayfield's?
Do you know about Mayfield's? No. It's an East Tennessee
milk, it's a dairy company.
Because that's how it used to be before.
It was just like whatever the
local dairy was yeah now we're into ice cream now too because people seem to like that and that
comes from our cows um raters okay graders has this one type is black cherry and chocolate chunk
oh it is so fucking good man isn't that kind of like cherry garcia though yeah it's similar but
it's probably been around for before that.
Yeah, I think a lot of ice cream was stolen from each other.
Right, yeah.
And they just use different names.
They're like, we'll call this Cherry Garcia. This is Moose Chunks.
They're like, well, this is Elk Chunks.
Right.
Grater's has been around for 145 years.
Yeah, that's what it was.
And I think it was just a local thing when I lived in Kentucky that people around there got.
Damn, and they got the low
glycemic jump off too for you if you you know gotta watch your sugar well they got the uh
high the protein shit that uh high what is it halo top yeah it's oh yeah what's halo top it's
and i heard about it from a doctor she was like she eats it because it's hot it's just high protein
there's not as much sugar or added sugar or whatever. Oh, okay.
And the calories are lower.
It's still fucking ice cream, but it tastes a little different.
They put the calories in big, like that is the biggest writing on the thing.
It's like 350 calories in this entire tub.
See, and that's when I'm like, no, hit me with that.
What kind of chemicals are in this?
Exactly.
I want to go into diabetic shock by then, right after.
Well, that's my thing, too, is if I want to do ice cream, why would you?
Yeah, don't.
It's like drinking Michelob Ultra.
Right.
It's like, what are you doing?
Right, right, right, right, right.
If you're trying to drink beer, drink beer, man.
I like water that tastes bad.
Yeah, but I do CrossFit, too, man.
Right. And those commercials make it seem but I do CrossFit too, man.
And those commercials make it seem like I'll get some pussy.
Right.
In athleisure wear.
Yeah, in like Lululemon.
Yeah, people are always like, it's like a post-workout beer.
I'm like, what?
Yeah.

I'm just saying that's not why I'm on Twitter.
Right, right, right, yes.
One of too many.
Yeah, and the fun part about Twitter
is getting your argument down
and cutting out all the words you don't need
to get your point across.
That's the funny part about Twitter.
The economy of words.
And then people are like,
19 of 48.

No.
It's just, it's not genuine.
Yeah.
Well, you know, he's still just getting used to...
You can talk shit.
Like, if he wants to be the roast guy from now on,
I think that would be fun. That seems to be the line he's taken. But don't be so angry. He's trying to getting used to... You can talk shit. Like, if he wants to be the roast guy from now on, I think that would be fun.
That seems to be the line he's taking.
But don't be so angry.
He's trying to work himself up.
Yeah, yeah.
If you're that angry...
Just take shots from Mount Olympus.
You can do something with your money to actually make change.

So you rapping about it, I just can't.
Shelby Farrow tweeted,
My dick looks like Waluigi.
Ditchpony tweeted,
family, why would you get tattoos?
They're expensive and painful to get
and they are permanent.
Also family, have a baby.
Yes, that's the one.
I think that might have been the one I was looking for.
That's it.
I love that one.
Also family, have a baby.
And at Billy Eichner tweeted, I'm going to get divorced at the Tonys.
In response to that dude getting engaged.
Doing the most up there.

He's trying to do a weird EGOT thing.
Oh, yeah. He's going to have Grammys at the Oscars. He's trying to do a weird EGOT thing. Oh, yeah.
He's going to have Grammys at a Grammy band.
I'm surprised he didn't start grip walking on the stage.
I saw a good tweet about that.
It's like, it's such a troll for him to do that as someone that directs another award show
because it just sends everybody in such a panic when you pull a move like that.
Right, right, yeah.
So that's a troll move to all the crew and stuff is what he's doing
