No yawning, Rosie. No yawning. Come on. I'm
0:11

0:21
minutes. We have 25. I'm
0:24
doing a lot of yawning. Okay,

I'm just into yawning in 2025.
0:31
This show is... Pretty boring for the
0:33
guests and we're using it because they
0:35
do yawn while we're talking. So I
0:37
brought that into this. You know, I
0:39
appreciate the rule. Now I
0:41
understand the depth behind it. I'm
0:43
sorry. I'm a fragile male podcast. Well,
0:46
those words are redundant. I'm
0:48
a male podcast. I'm just
0:50
a guy. I'm just a guy

a girl. Son,

not the first time. Why
1:03
are you yawning at me? Stop
1:06
yawning at me. I'm trying to tell
1:08
you something really important. I'm just yawning.
1:11
Sometimes they're not yawning at
1:13
you. You're just like waiting for your
1:15
wife to wake up and yawn just
1:17
so you can yell at her. Stop
1:19
yawning at me. You're
1:21
boring. I'm not. Oh,
1:23
what are we yawning at today? Let's
1:33

6:16
Super producer Victor sent this article
6:18
to the chat yesterday. Did you
6:20
guys see the quote from J .D.
6:22
Vance when asked about being one
6:24
of the last officials to meet
6:27
with the Pope? He's like, I
6:29
thought a lot about that, actually.
6:31
It's pretty crazy, actually. Obviously,
6:34
when I saw him, I didn't
6:36
know that he had less than 24
6:38
hours still on this earth. It's
6:41
like, in fact,
6:43
that's so obvious. You
6:45
feeling the need to say it makes
6:47
me want to take another look at
6:49
that assumption, but you
6:51
didn't know he had less than
6:54
24 hours. I didn't realize my
6:56
skin would burn when I touched
6:58
him, though. I wasn't expecting that.
7:00
I didn't know he would gasp
7:02
and say I've never seen such
7:04
evil before and fall into a
7:06
deep coma. Crazy,
7:08
dog. Anyways, my life
7:10
is like a movie, dog. It's a
7:13

Anyway, Halcyon solid. Thanks for that one
7:52
and apologies for my Louis Armstrong impression
7:54
But sometimes you got to dust off
7:56
the old vocal cords. I mean that
7:58

8:00
Time limit on your podcast and career
8:03

harsh. Really hard.

What happened to just copying the Golden
13:31
Globes? Yeah. You know? I
13:33
don't know. Well, those guys watched it, right? We
13:36

13:38
We might talk about the fire
13:40
festival, all of that, plenty
13:43
more. But first, Rosie, Joel, we
13:45
do like to get to know our
13:47
guests a little bit better by asking
13:49
them something from their search history that
13:51
is revealing about who they are. I'd
13:53
like to ask you both for that.
13:55
And then I understand that you've decided
13:57
to trade off the overrated underrated. Yes.
14:00
Rosie, can you go first on search history?
14:03
Yeah, I can because today
14:05
I was looking up the
14:07
very exciting laws around internet
14:09
safety when you work for
14:12
a large corporation. So I
14:14
was searching exciting things such
14:16
as, oh, I'm like 100
14:18
years old guys. I'm looking
14:20
in my history. I'm like,
14:23
where's the search guys? Like
14:25
I don't remember the acronym. But
14:27
okay, I'll tell you this is
14:30
a good one. Currently in my search
14:32
history, I do have my training, which
14:34
I was trying to learn about
14:36
different kinds of important health and
14:38
safety. I also have a Reddit
14:41
for what do people give out
14:43
free at K -pop concerts because
14:45
I was making a present for
14:47
my friend who loves K -pop. And
14:50
what's the other most interesting history?
14:52
Wait, what do you mean give
14:54
out free etiquette? Oh, okay. Let
14:56
me educate you because I too
14:58
am I am like not a
15:00
young hip person anymore if I
15:02
ever was and basically at Kpop
15:04
concerts and I'm sorry to the
15:06
Taylor Swift fans. It was their
15:09
first it is very Common for
15:11
the young girls and the young
15:13
people who go to these shows
15:15
they make fan photo cards of
15:17
the K -pop idols, they
15:19
switch kind of all kinds of merchandise.
15:21
People will take plastic cups, people will
15:23
take those light sticks, and when you
15:25
go on Reddit and you look at
15:27
freebies on concerts, because I am just
15:29
a dad who looks up everything on
15:32
Reddit, they're just these unbelievable halls
15:34
that these girls get when they go
15:36
because There's, you know, 20 ,000 people
15:38
there and they're all switching around little
15:40
bracelets with their bias on there or
15:42
with the name of the band. So
15:44
like the Taylor Swift bracelets. It's kind
15:46
of like that, but like more. extrapolated
15:49
to multiple different kinds of merchandise and a
15:51
big part of like kpop popularity is these
15:53
things called photo cards where it's just like
15:56
a little photo of the idol and they
15:58
trade them kind of like trading cards so
16:00
yeah i was looking up that kind of
16:02
stuff to to arrange a cute surprise for
16:04
a friend and i was really learning a
16:06
lot as i always do when i go
16:08
and read it and ask a question that
16:10
a hundred. 40 year old men have asked
16:12
before me. My
16:14
daughter is going to a k
16:16
-pop show. Have you tried just
16:18
going to google and asking their
16:20
ai? Absolutely not. Oh, okay.
16:22
Dude, I'm just as a person who
16:24
spends a lot of time on the
16:27
internet and who writes a lot
16:29
of articles and does a lot of
16:31
journalism. The moment that that came up,
16:33
I was like, I have to. Pretend
16:35
it doesn't exist. Oh, yeah, because otherwise
16:37
at one point I will Because I'm
16:40
busy and I will get caught and
16:42
suddenly I will be writing something completely
16:44
factually inaccurate I'm like I gotta stay
16:46
to the sources. I know the sites
16:48
I know and mostly that has just
16:50
led to me just going to the
16:53
thing like you just have to because
16:55
you can't you gotta ignore it Google
16:57
completely broken for completely like years now
16:59
and now they just have a thing
17:01
that's like what what if we just
17:03
like took from the top five results
17:05
that have been wrong for years yeah.
17:09
This is my first old
17:11
man yells at cloud moment
17:13
where my kids don't look
17:15
at the AI it's terrible
17:17
answers so frequently wrong and
17:20
it's really terrifying. if
17:22
you're a person who really enjoys
17:24
people reading, because I feel like just
17:27
reducing literacy comprehension by even more.
17:29
And you're just like, it's just Google.
17:31
It used to be so accurate.
17:33
You guys remember when Google was good?
17:35
Let's go over there and find what you
17:37
were looking for. I remember using Ask
17:40
Jeeves, guys. I used to have a bot
17:42
lock, a personal internet lock. That was
17:44
the beginning, though. the best CS I've ever
17:46
been. That was kind of the beginning
17:48
of the AI creep, though, because with Ask
17:50
Jeeves, I remember was totally set up
17:52
to be like, rather than a search term,
17:54
like, what's the weather? Yeah,
17:56
yeah, exactly, in a conversational way. But
17:58
I mean, the more I look like AI
18:00
and I hear like, Like like men
18:02
talk about it's like dude like you can
18:04
actually do therapy on there. I'm
18:06
like I'm now convinced AI was just
18:08
created so men didn't have to appear
18:10
like they didn't know anything in public.
18:13
No I think that you I think
18:15
it was that is one of the
18:17
biggest problems with it is it is
18:19
exactly that because I didn't realize in
18:21
my you know naivete as somebody who's
18:23
just too old to have been suckered
18:25
into it multiple friends that I have
18:27
who work with people who are in
18:29
their 20s are just constantly catching them
18:31
using it. Like it is become the
18:33
go -to so quickly to just put
18:35
something through chat gtp or ask them
18:37
a question and then people come on
18:39
the internet as they always have done
18:41
an act like they are an expert
18:43
source but the funny thing is now
18:45
they are getting it from like a
18:47
Before you might have gone to a
18:49
fandom site like fans sourced media and Archival
18:52
spaces are really really important and have
18:54
for a long time been like at the
18:56
heart of a lot of genre fandoms,
18:59
but you would go there and you would
19:01
read someone else's thing you would maybe
19:03
do some research or maybe you just quote
19:05
it from Wikipedia, but now you're literally
19:07
just quoting something wrong like nine times out
19:09
of ten that I answer is going
19:11
to be absolutely incorrect. I was looking up
19:13
something about. the
19:16
technological safety. I'm
19:18
really sure I'm making this corporation feel
19:20
great. I obviously have all the lingo
19:22
down, but don't worry, I will never
19:24
put a USB stick where it doesn't
19:26
belong guys. I know that much. Big
19:28
thing that you learn in those trainings
19:30
is if you find a USB stick
19:32
in the parking lot. Don't don't load
19:34
it up. Don't don't just take pick
19:36
it up and plug it directly into
19:39
your computer as I had been doing
19:41
for Because whose computer even still has
19:43
a USB? But
19:45
like even during that
19:47
while I was
19:49
trying to understand a
19:52
bit more about
19:54
like these different legislations
19:56
have come in
19:58
in the last 20,
20:00
you know since
20:03
2015 or whenever. Every
20:05
time I would be googling to try
20:07
and understand more about it, because I'm like,
20:10
if I'm going to do the training,
20:12
I may as well actually learn something. So
20:14
I googled it, and then they are
20:16
legit giving me like the incorrect answer, information
20:18
in the top, while the correct thing
20:20
is in the, you know, the answer below.
20:22
And that, I think as well, Joelle,
20:24
you must know this feeling. Me
20:27
and Joel both came up like doing,
20:29
you know, journalism, entertainment journalism
20:31
and stuff. And if you wrote
20:34
like a big deep dive interview
20:36
or a law piece, five years
20:38
ago, the best kind of feeling
20:40
of achievement was if yours was
20:42
the first answer on Google, you
20:44
would be like, okay, I'm the most excited.
20:46
I'm ever like, this is me. Now I'm like,
20:48
that better not fucking ever quote me on
20:50
the AI because it means I definitely got something
20:52
wrong. Right. Yeah.
20:55
I mean, it just generally
20:57
gets AI is a perfect
20:59
replacement for men in that
21:01
they just created a machine
21:03
that will give an answer
21:05
that isn't correct very confidently
21:07
made by men for men
21:09
and you don't have placement
21:11
and you don't have to
21:13
struggle in public because you
21:15
can quietly just like your
21:18
phone and even for fucking
21:20
therapy. Yeah. Uh,
21:22
I mean, I know and like I
21:24
can see that there are potentially non malicious
21:26
applications of it But like when I
21:28
see the amount of people like reflexively like
21:30
just think that that's the answer. That's
21:32
what that's what spooks me up. Yeah Joel,
21:35
is there something from your search history that's
21:37
revealing about who are? it's so funny. You bring
21:39
up K -pop because I was picking up Blackpink
21:41
tickets. Hey! I
21:44
like Jenny. She's cool.
21:47
Everybody loves Lalisa. She's pretty
21:49
sweet. Rose got her little
21:52
tip -a -tip song that I'm
21:54
doing. Maybe I'll go see the
21:56
girls. song is everywhere. It's
21:58
literally taken over my feet. And I was like,
22:00
well, maybe I'll go, but tickets were more expensive
22:02
than I paid for Beyonce. And I was like,
22:04
oh, shit. I can't. I don't. I think I
22:06
can't do that. I can't. So I'm just going
22:08
to wait. I mean, there's still a ton of
22:11
tickets left. So I'm like, maybe closer to the
22:13
concert. We'll look around. What about
22:15
this Joel? This is not an advertisement as I
22:17
am not sponsored, but I do enjoy the
22:19
game time app where you can buy a ticket
22:21
like two hours before a show and it's
22:23
like 20 bucks. That was what happened with Beyonce
22:25
last time. There was all these people buying
22:27
floor show tickets for like 60 bucks during the
22:29
Renaissance tour. Like as long as you're like
22:31
a couple of hours away. So I think you've
22:34
got the right idea. Wait, I haven't explored
22:36
the game time app yet, but let me download
22:38
it because I'm also looking at floor seats
22:40
for the WNBA games when those start back up.
22:42
You know, I've been wanting to go. I
22:44
haven't you. Yes. Because Rosie, it was you. You
22:46
were telling me about how much fun the
22:48
WNBA games were. And I was like, I gotta
22:50
go check these things out. The WNBA you
22:52
can buy because the Sparks ended up as the
22:54
lowest team, if not maybe one of, I
22:57
think it was the lowest ranked, but, and I
22:59
went to the last game and it was
23:01
unbelievable. The girl, I just. wanted to cry. She
23:03
was like, I'm so sorry. We'll do better.
23:05
Like the captain of the team. And I was
23:07
like, no, you are amazing. Like, it's okay.
23:09
None of us watching this are professional athletes. But
23:12
that's like, it's okay. Like you
23:14
didn't do the cheapest they had. When
23:16
I emailed to find out about
23:18
the season tickets, they had season tickets
23:20
that started at like 400 bucks. for
23:23
like not terrible seats. We're about to be
23:25
at the WPA all the time. I just feel
23:27
like it's a big place for the queer
23:29
girlies to like hang out, meet one another, see
23:32
amazingly tall Amazon women dunk on each other
23:34
like I'm just really here for. And I
23:36
will add another selling point which is when
23:38
I went, two of the girls had a
23:40
fist fight. It was
23:42
pretty griner and one of the girls from the
23:44
Sparks and they got in a fist fight and
23:46
they got the game and they both got ejected.
23:48
Just straight up ejected. It was, it was pretty
23:51
sick. I'm not going to lie. sports fight is
23:53
a top tier. I've never been to a sporting
23:55
event where there's been a fist fight, but if
23:57
there's one happening and I'm like, I'm on my
23:59
feet immediately. I'm like, let's go. Let's see. I
24:01
just look. I don't know if I being IRL,
24:03
but sports are not real life. That's it.
24:05
Those are billionaires punching each other. We should all
24:07
be lining up to see it. Somebody's
24:10
writing a script somewhere. It's like, just
24:12
let them fight. That's
24:14
fair. I feel like there's a
24:16
lot of bloodlust right now in the
24:18
sports fandom. There are a
24:20
couple of NBA series that could have
24:22
a really good chance in round one
24:24
of the NBA playoffs of going. Spilling
24:26
over into street fights and everyone's like,
24:29
yeah, yeah It's like the same reason
24:31
people watch hockey. They just want to
24:33
see somebody beat someone else up, right?
24:35
Yeah, that's the same reason people go
24:37
to the to see any kind of
24:39
large, slightly dangerous event is like, oh,
24:41
what if it went wrong? Like there's
24:44
a human curiosity there. And you're right,
24:46
2025 is bringing out the bloodlust. Oh,
24:48
yeah. What if the horses and the
24:50
Kentucky Derby started fighting each other? Okay,
24:52
that would be sick, though. I would
24:54
watch this. I don't want to see
24:56
the animals fight. Put up your hoops.
24:58
Put up your hoops. Let's take a
25:01
quick break and we'll come back and
25:03
find out what you guys think is
25:05
overrated and underrated and get into some
25:07
news. We'll be right back. In
25:14
1978, Roger Caron's first book
25:16
was published and he was unlike
25:18
any first -time author Canada had
25:20
ever seen. Roger Caron was
25:22
16 when first convicted. He spent
25:25
24 of those years in
25:27
jail. 12 years in solitary. He
25:29
went from an ex -con to
25:31
a literary darling almost overnight. He
25:34
was instantly a celebrity. He
25:36
was an adrenaline junkie and he
25:38
was the star of the
25:40
show. Go Boy is the
25:42
gritty true story of how one man
25:44
fought his way out of some of
25:47
the darkest places imaginable. I had a
25:49
knife in my stomach, punctured my screen,
25:51
break my ribs, I had my bets
25:53
all in my hands. Only to find
25:55
himself back where he started. Roger's saying
25:57
is I've never hurt anybody but myself
25:59
and I said, oh you're so wrong.
26:01
You're so wrong on that one wrong.

26:30
of this psychological baggage that I'm carrying with
26:32
me. And the last thing I want to
26:34
do is to pass that on to my
26:36
daughter. So I have to figure this out.
26:38
This is this puzzle of my trauma. I
26:40
have to figure it out and I have
26:42
to figure it out now. Join
26:44
me this season when I talk
26:46
to Amanda Knox about her choice
26:48
to reconnect with the prosecutor who
26:51
helped put her behind bars. This
26:53
is not about him. This is
26:55
about me and what I am
26:57
capable of giving. And I know
26:59
that I am capable of being
27:01
kind to this man. And
27:04
by God, I
27:06
am going to do it and no
27:08
one can stop me. I
27:29
see AI as an incredible co -pilot.
27:31
You may use different tools or
27:33
toys to get the work done, but
27:36
ultimately as editor, as
27:38
creator, as maker, you
27:40
own it. And it needs to be
27:42
good. AI is just the latest flavor
27:45
of that. You're still the judge of
27:47
what good looks like. I'm Dan Roth,

29:10
we're back. And
29:12
Rosie, we do like to ask
29:14
our guests, what is something you think
29:16
is underrated? Wow, I'm so sorry to
29:18
everybody listening to this, because as Joelle
29:20
knows... essentially my job to love underrated
29:22
stuff on x -ray vision. I am
29:24
the only fan of the marvel's eternal
29:26
movie Eternals movie, which I thought was
29:28
wonderful hard sci -fi So and I am
29:31
that has been my cross to bear
29:33
I am sitting in my Marvel Eternals
29:35
gaming chair that I bought as a
29:37
troll on a discount at some point
29:39
and is now just cemented me as
29:41
the number one Eternals fan But that's
29:43
not what I'm gonna talk about because
29:45
it's actually finally slightly rated because of
29:47
letterbox and Disney plus I'm gonna tell
29:49
you about the most
29:51
underrated film franchise that you've
29:53
never heard of. And it
29:55
is the Vivica A. Fox
29:57
produced and starring in 27
29:59
movie long lifetime franchise called
30:02
The Wrong Movie Franchise, or
30:04
as I call it, The
30:06
Wrong Franchise. Every single movie
30:08
is directed by David DeCoto, who
30:10
is a gay... A. E. Schlock director
30:12
who was most known for horror
30:14
but has moved into the TV made
30:16
for TV movies space. He is
30:18
very well known for a really one
30:20
of the worst movies ever made.
30:22
It's generally recognized as called a talking
30:24
cat, which has Eric Roberts voicing
30:27
a talking cat. And it is like
30:29
a perennial midnight movie classic. Now
30:31
it's insane. But the wrong movies are
30:33
very simple. They are women in
30:35
peril, as we call lifetime movies, nine
30:37
act structure. And every single one
30:39
is called the wrong cheerleader the wrong
30:41
real estate agent the wrong coach
30:43
the wrong cheerleading coach assistant like they
30:45
get more and more niches they
30:47
go and they are really fun schlocky
30:49
b movies and vivica is amazing
30:51
and she also owns her and wig
30:53
company so she's always got those
30:55
nice wigs on in the movie which
30:57
lifetimes of movies do not often
30:59
have but the best part of every
31:01
movie is about five or six
31:03
movies in they realized that they were
31:05
kind of onto a camp classic
31:07
so at the end of the movie
31:10
when like five people have been
31:12
murdered by whoever the wrong person is
31:14
vivica like turns around and she
31:16
goes i guess you hired the wrong
31:18
real estate agent and it is
31:20
incredible and they made 27 of them
31:22
and they stopped making them about
31:24
two and a half years ago but
31:26
i'm like desperate for them to
31:28
Bring them back because it is I
31:30
think it is I think lifetime
31:32
movie. This is my pitch my general
31:34
underrated lifetime pitch It is the
31:36
contemporary B movie hub of the world
31:38
which that crown may be being
31:40
taken by Chubi originals now, but it
31:42
has been for a long time
31:44
Like 80 % of their movies in
31:46
2022 were directed and written by women
31:48
So it's also a space where
31:50
the numbers of people they get to
31:53
make the movies are like so
31:55
much more diverse than you would think
31:57
and it has really a fox
31:59
basically Like doing a campy bit at
32:01
the end of every movie. So
32:03
go and watch them guys the wrong
32:05
movie franchise My dream is to
32:07
make a podcast called the wrong podcast
32:09
where I just rewatch them all
32:11
with vidica and talk about the masterpieces
32:13
What uh, yeah, so it looks
32:15
like they ended on 26 and 27
32:17
the wrong life coach was 26
32:19
Exactly the wrong obsession, which I don't
32:21
know that could be anything. I
32:23
feel like there's too vague Yeah, I
32:25
have a spec script that I
32:27
wrote because I was so obsessed with
32:29
them. That's just um the wrong
32:31
the wrong publisher and she's like a
32:33
kathy -esque like female cartoonist right doing
32:36
strip comics but her editor is
32:38
like becomes obsessed with her and then
32:40
tries to steal the comic and
32:42
i'm like guys you're going as niche
32:44
as like the wrong real estate
32:46
agent i think we can move it
32:48
into like publishing comic space like
32:50
that they did the wrong they did
32:52
the wrong cheerleader and the wrong
32:54
cheer captain So they're, they're willing to,
32:56
and the wrong cheerleader coach. Exactly.
32:58
There's multiple. Lifetime movies
33:00
love cheerleaders for some reason.
33:02
This is my, the $3 ,000
33:04
Jessica Fletcher question, because
33:06
Jessica Fletcher is a character,
33:08
you know, the star of murder
33:11
she wrote is a character
33:13
who it doesn't real, she's a
33:15
mystery writer. But it doesn't
33:17
really make sense that 90 %
33:19
of the people she's ever met
33:21
get murdered or are involved
33:23
in a murder. Her town has
33:25
a Cabot Cove where she
33:27
lives. It's just like, if you
33:30
live there, you're going to
33:32
get murdered. Yeah, it's like Detroit
33:34
and Cabot Cove. What is
33:36
the reason that Vivek gave Fox
33:38
within the movies? Is
33:40
involved in so many murders they they did
33:42
learn from the murder she wrote trope
33:44
and while they could have made Vivica the
33:46
same character in every movie That is
33:48
not the case. It is not like a
33:50
shared universe because most people who watch
33:52
lifetime movies just turn on if Vivica Fox
33:54
is in it They're just gonna turn
33:56
it on so sometimes she is a main
33:58
character. I think the real wrong real
34:00
estate Agent she is the one who gets
34:02
the real estate agent who becomes obsessed
34:04
with her but often she might just be
34:06
like the head teacher of the school Oh,
34:09
so it depends as she goes and
34:11
they're always different characters. It is not
34:13
like Jessica obviously the murderer Fletcher and
34:15
I watch that show like religiously. There's
34:18
a 24 hour free murder. She wrote
34:20
channel on Roku TV. So that's like
34:22
one of my ultimate work things. But
34:24
yeah, her in mid Jessica Fletcher and
34:26
the guys from mid summer murders. Like
34:28
if you ever see them, just don't
34:30
just leave. She's the angel of death.
34:33
Jessica Fletcher is the angel of death.
34:35
Wow, what a gig for Vivigay Fox,
34:37
to just be like a supporting character
34:39
who's there to just turn around and
34:41
be like, looks like you picked the
34:43
wrong high school sweetheart. Exactly, it's miraculous.
34:45
You get to do the Horatio from
34:48
CSI Miami. Yeah, every time and throw
34:50
the fucking on off. Oh my God,
34:52
I would love, and they do a
34:54
freeze frame. Yeah, but I'm
34:56
sure they don't have the budget for
34:58
the who for these movies. So
35:00
it'll just be like, get a
35:02
sound to like. Do a sound alike. Instead
35:04
they got the who? The who? Joel,
35:10
what is something you think is overrated? I
35:13
feel bad because I'm sure this has been
35:15
on your series before because it's basic AF, but
35:17
I think leaving the house is overrated. It's
35:20
good to leave. It's good to
35:22
go outside and touch grass. You want
35:24
to do that. But sometimes I
35:26
feel like. People are very, they're too
35:28
excited about me. They're like, there's
35:30
so much to do out here. I'm
35:33
like, but I perfectly curated the
35:35
internal space of my domicile to comfort
35:37
me like a womb so I
35:39
can rest and reset my physical and
35:41
mental being. And I just feel
35:43
like we don't appreciate the protective spaces
35:45
that we've created for ourselves. agree.
35:47
Stay in the house sometimes. Sometimes talk
35:49
to no one. I just really
35:51
think Alone time by yourself
35:53
decompressing is not valued like it should
35:55
be and we should course correct I
35:57
think it depends on how important it
35:59
is to you. I'm I can't Socialize
36:01
unless I'm alone for a significant period
36:03
of time. I'm gonna recharge the social
36:06
battery Yeah, like I'm I'm like an
36:08
extroverted introvert I guess like people be
36:10
like whoa like when you're like you
36:12
like to talk and you make jokes
36:14
I'm like bro. I have to then
36:16
go into my fucking Dracula coffin basically
36:18
and be like Yeah,
36:27
that's why I love hanging out
36:29
with Joel and like being besties because
36:32
both of us if we're just
36:34
like I don't have any energy anymore
36:36
man like I'm just out we'll
36:38
be like cool I'm also going home
36:40
like this is great or just
36:42
stay in one of our houses and
36:44
just lay on the sofa there
36:46
Rosie once hosted a haunted sleepover. She
36:49
got us some great movies, little
36:51
popcorn bowls, a plushie, which was
36:53
so cute. And she made
36:55
us little beds. And we were just
36:57
cozy watching horror movies in Twilight Zone.
36:59
And honestly, I was
37:02
seeing something the other day that was like, uh, I can't
37:04
date men because my girlfriends take me on better dates.
37:06
And this is exactly what I mean. It's
37:11
so true. Like my friend, uh,
37:13
one of my besties Annie, she texted
37:16
me. And it was a tweet
37:18
that someone had done where it was
37:20
like, why can't you just find
37:22
a man and settle with a man?
37:24
And it's like, because my friends
37:26
text me like this, and it's like,
37:28
oh, the love of my life,
37:30
the soul that I was meant to
37:32
have. How can I go one
37:34
day without seeing your face or hearing
37:36
a voice note? You light up
37:38
my life. And it's like, and you
37:40
text a dude, and it's just
37:42
like, OK. Period Yeah, you're getting the
37:44
haul Drago like love like stars
37:47
All right, I think you made your
37:49
case. I'm never leaving my house
37:51
again. Let's get
37:53
it Let's get
37:55
into some of the reasons that we
37:57
might never want to leave our houses
37:59
again. Great alley -oop Joel. Look at that.
38:01
Just pure lead -in. You're a producer. You
38:04
could never question it. But
38:06
so one of the things,
38:08
like as we're watching
38:10
everything go to complete hell
38:12
around us, one of
38:14
the things that I, my brain
38:16
always asks is like, is everybody
38:18
else seeing this? This
38:20
is like this is bad
38:23
bad, right? Like this where we
38:25
all think this is bad
38:27
turns out not everybody but Donald
38:29
Trump's approval Not not in
38:31
the greatest place. No, I mean
38:33
it's being like I'm the
38:35
most popular president of all time
38:38
Yeah, he has a current
38:40
approval rating of 40 % after
38:42
a hundred days that puts him
38:44
at the lowest ever since
38:46
the era of polling only second
38:48
to Donald Trump in
38:50
2017 Keep it himself company down. Yeah, exactly.
38:52
You know, you got it. You got
38:55
to stay sharp, baby You know what I
38:57
mean? You got it. You always got
38:59
to push yourself the deal Yeah,
39:01
exactly. And I think like,
39:03
yeah, to your point, Jack, you're like, ah, because usually
39:05
like the Republican like the Republican base, when you pull them,
39:07
they're like, no, I love everything. And this is great.
39:09
And this is how it's supposed to be. It's
39:12
the things are trending downward in
39:14
a consistent way. Now granted, more
39:16
Republicans obviously approve of what Trump
39:18
is doing than not. But the
39:20
only by about like. Like there's
39:22
a solid 33 % of Republicans
39:24
are like I he
39:28
was gonna make the other
39:30
countries pay for the tariff
39:32
I thought he was gonna
39:35
take away the bad immigrants.
39:37
I was a good one
39:39
because I got in Oh,
39:41
so the places where he's
39:43
really just truly fucking up
39:45
in the eyes of the American
39:47
public, obviously is around inflation and tariffs.
39:49
That was about only 33 % approval
39:51
rating there. And I think most
39:54
people who understand that, you know, we
39:56
toil under capitalism with the promise
39:58
of maybe retirement based on our stock
40:00
market gambled retirement funds that we
40:02
get, they saw those take a hit
40:04
and are like, what in the fuck happened
40:06
here? Like that was just, I think, just
40:08
so tangible for people in a way that
40:10
you couldn't just culture war that away. That
40:13
He's definitely hurting there then
40:15
on the economy just overall record
40:17
low record low approval rating
40:20
on the economy 38 % This
40:22
is these are all coming from
40:24
a Fox News poll Okay,
40:26
like this is as friendly as
40:28
you're gonna get in terms
40:30
of like Trump polling then without
40:32
look like so 71 % of
40:35
Respond and said that they
40:37
rated the economy economic conditions negatively
40:39
55 % said that conditions were
40:41
worsening for their families, right?
40:43
That's Yeah, those aren't great. The
40:45
one place that polling is
40:47
above 50 % for Trump is
40:50
on kidnap immigration. But
40:52
even those numbers
40:55
are trending downwards.
40:58
You can see it's way different
41:00
than February to now because now
41:02
more people are seeing the methodology
41:04
and they're like, what the fuck
41:06
is this? All I'm hearing is
41:08
just horror stories. just
41:10
disappearing people with, you know, no
41:12
regard for due process or,
41:14
you know, their status seems to
41:16
not The winning combination that
41:18
he thought it was a naturally
41:20
Trump responded to this poll
41:22
on his favorite about his favorite
41:24
TV show with anger He
41:26
said Rupert Murdoch has told me
41:28
for years that he is
41:30
going to get rid of his
41:32
Fox News Trump hating fake
41:34
pollster Never done so This pollster
41:36
has gotten me and Magga
41:38
wrong for years Take away truth
41:40
social. That's just like I
41:42
I think he's funny and I
41:44
like his like like
41:47
slights but also like he just
41:49
doesn't need to be just put out
41:51
a press release bro like no
41:53
more truth social no more responses like
41:55
this. He only speaks in shitposts
41:57
unfortunately so that's he's fluent in that.
41:59
Talk to the people get right
42:01
in there. But I mean like when
42:03
you put this against the backdrop
42:05
of all the L's that Trump is
42:07
taking in the court of public
42:09
opinion and in the literal courts like
42:11
already a judge knocked Back the
42:13
sanctuary city funding ban that Trump was
42:15
trying to enact said he has
42:18
to bring another person back from El
42:20
Salvador like just in like the
42:22
last hour You know, then you have
42:24
must been a utter failure The
42:26
courts keep ruling against him. He's angered
42:28
his own base with the tariffs
42:30
measles is well and truly back And
42:32
he couldn't even pretend he had
42:34
the nerve to really even start a
42:36
trade war with China and obviously
42:38
the Russia thing which we'll get to
42:40
in a second But yeah, I
42:42
mean we're seeing like sort of the
42:44
same Trump in terms of like
42:46
his personality and what his level of
42:48
commitment to like fucking things up
42:50
Get lucky and he could just be
42:52
like I want to do this
42:54
anymore and just quit I've been waiting
42:56
for that His kids have been
42:58
like hinting at that since he ran
43:00
they're like you need to do
43:02
this rich He did just pump and
43:05
dump like the entire American economy
43:07
so hopefully he's made enough money in
43:09
that that he could kind of
43:11
back because like I just feel like
43:13
there's only gonna be so much
43:15
money you can rents from this bro
43:17
before something happens so I'm like
43:19
just speed it up and like Joel
43:21
said let's just you can go
43:23
live in Mar -a -Lago or whatever and
43:25
just leave me be Oh,
43:27
yeah. Golf till you're dead, buddy. Just leave me
43:29
the fuck alone. Golf till you're dead.
43:31
I mean, till your heart's content. Yeah, yeah. So
43:34
your heart stops beating. I mean, till your
43:36
heart's content. So your heart can't take it anymore.
43:38
So your heart just can't take it. Cause
43:40
it's so happy. happy. Yeah. Just so filled with
43:42
love. I mean, I feel like
43:44
you could almost feed him to death
43:46
like a goldfish. Like, not that I'm... Are
43:48
you advocating for anything? You know what
43:50
mean? Are you advocating for the killing of
43:53
goldfishes? would never. I'm saying that that
43:55
could theoretically happen. Hypothetically. But, like, someone cruel.
43:57
But, you know, I'm sure he has
44:00
too many, like, dietitians around him
44:02
just being like, sorry, sir, that is
44:04
the 75th Diet Coke of the
44:06
day. And we're actually... That's your limit,
44:08
buddy. Come on. Contractually long tantrum. You
44:11
to drink one cup of water for every
44:13
five sodas. Come on. No! I
44:15
don't like the way it tastes. I
44:18
I feel like he takes shot glasses of
44:20
water. Like you have to, you just
44:22
gotta cram that shit in there. He does
44:24
look very dehydrated at all my God.
44:26
Yeah, desiccated. Pathetic
44:29
blood. Cruelty to poor
44:31
people and people in other countries
44:33
has always been a lagging indicator.
44:36
Like I feel like Americans just
44:38
having lived through the George W.
44:40
Bush administration, like that was
44:42
a thing that we were like, how are people
44:44
still on this shit and
44:46
then pretty swiftly it takes
44:48
like a good year and then
44:50
people start being like this
44:52
guy seems like a fucking idiot
44:54
and he's like also really
44:56
cruel to everybody and killing everybody
44:58
yeah so we'll see America
45:00
just loves to do that like
45:02
the fact that Guantanamo Bay
45:04
never got shut down even after
45:07
everything that happened is exactly
45:09
what you're talking about it's like
45:11
there's some kind of lagging
45:14
understanding of like other people's
45:16
humanity. It's just this, it's
45:18
the unfortunate privilege of being
45:20
so insulated in America that
45:22
it's completely abstract to people.
45:24
And it's only until, what
45:26
happened to my 401k? Yes,
45:29
exactly. People are like, oh,
45:31
so now that you got touched. Yes. You have,
45:33
now you're waking up because you don't have
45:35
the mental capacity to forecast any of this, probably
45:37
because you didn't give a fuck. But now
45:39
you are forced to and now you're like, well,
45:41
who'd I get angry at? Yeah, you're fucking
45:43
guy, bro. Like, I just saw someone post it.
45:46
Facebook post or some Trump supporters like
45:48
sir. I bought a Handcrafted guitar
45:50
from the UK and was asked to
45:53
pay $1 ,600 of tariffs on this
45:55
I do not understand as a
45:57
veteran why I should pay when I
45:59
am purchasing an item from a
46:01
luthier in the UK from an ally
46:03
sir I will be protesting I
46:05
am with you, but this cannot say
46:08
it's like hey dumb fuck this
46:10
is always the fucking like every I
46:12
this is the tariff thing is
46:14
like kind of pushing me over the
46:16
edge because many times you can
46:18
say that people were not well informed.
46:21
They didn't have the right research.
46:23
They didn't have the right information. There
46:25
are many reasons people vote different
46:27
ways. I'm not here to judge them
46:29
as someone who has a green
46:31
card and cannot vote. But the tariff
46:33
thing is killing me because actually
46:36
I saw every single day from podcasters
46:38
to news anchors to random people
46:40
just having conversations in coffee shops, explaining
46:42
to people that you will be
46:44
paying the tariff. Like, in this time,
46:46
I'm like, this is the one
46:49
where there's no plausible denier, Billy. People
46:52
were coming to you and saying,
46:54
hey, that's not how tariffs work. Don't
46:56
listen to him. Even some Republicans,
46:58
you know? And I'm just like,
47:00
guys, this is the thing. You were so
47:02
sure that everyone else was just lying
47:04
to you and only Donald Trump was telling
47:06
you the truth. Right, like I'm sorry
47:08
like pay those tariffs because you fucking should
47:10
have listened Yeah, this I mean the
47:12
thing with all especially what's happening now I
47:14
mean it's different than 2017 and that
47:16
like they had a lot of time to
47:18
warm up for what they were gonna
47:20
do the second they got an office and
47:22
do exactly what what sort of you
47:24
know Support systems they wanted to kick out
47:26
immediately, but then they also brought into
47:28
this administration the mentality of the previous one
47:30
where they believed that Some issues just
47:32
American people weren't paying attention to and didn't
47:34
care about. And they're like, it's going
47:36
to be fine. Like we'll be able to
47:38
do all this shit. They won't even
47:40
fucking notice. But this is a completely different
47:42
version now. And now they're having like
47:44
the shock of being like, they
47:46
wait, they normally didn't care about
47:48
this kind of stuff. Like they just
47:50
like the economy or whatever. They
47:53
just like the concept of it rather
47:55
than how the methodology on how
47:57
we improve it or not. But yeah,
47:59
this is I do see I
48:01
do see an opportunity for Classic Trump
48:03
grift on his base like where
48:05
he's going to fully walk back the
48:07
tariffs and potentially stave off some
48:10
kind of catastrophic recession. Yeah, and I
48:12
saved everybody's money. You can thank
48:14
me. That's why I need four more
48:16
years. It's like, but you are
48:18
the cause of it all. Right.
48:21
We'll see how quick the memory
48:23
fades. It's going to be
48:25
interesting to see if because the like
48:27
the New York Times and. A lot
48:29
of mainstream outlets have been like
48:31
granting him wins where there are none
48:33
like when he's like Trump gets Trump
48:35
gets a concession from Mexico and
48:37
like agrees to pull back tariffs. I
48:39
was like, no, they just Said that
48:41
they were going to give him
48:43
a thing they had already said they
48:45
were going to give him like a
48:47
month ago But it allowed him
48:49
to claim victory like I wonder if
48:51
they'll do that again with China because
48:54
I'm pretending Like, China is just
48:56
like, we're not even talking to this
48:58
motherfucker. Yeah, yeah. China sat down with
49:00
Korea and Japan, and they were
49:02
like, you know, how
49:04
much you must have fucked up
49:06
to get the three of them together.
49:08
I know. They do not usually
49:10
get along. No. And I understand because
49:12
he can unite people in it.
49:14
But I think that, Miles, you struck
49:16
on the true annoying, most annoying
49:18
thing as an observer about Trump's like,
49:20
awe of the deal. And many
49:22
people have noticed this, but I'm going
49:24
to coin it in loser nerd
49:26
terms. Joelle knows one of my
49:29
most hated things is what I
49:31
call walking dead storytelling. And it's when
49:33
the TV show would take five
49:35
episodes to solve something that could have
49:37
been solved in a conversation in
49:39
the first episode where you start the
49:41
story. And that is Trump's art
49:43
of the deal. He's like, he fucks
49:45
it up. He does something that
49:47
really like honestly ruins people's lives, whether
49:49
it's this horrific deportation or anything
49:51
else. Like tariffs and then
49:53
he comes back and gets a slightly
49:55
worse deal than what happened, you
49:57
know, five hypothetical episodes ago five months
50:00
ago And then he's like look
50:02
at me. I saved the day. It's
50:04
like no, sir Like you are
50:06
the one who started us on this
50:08
path of destruction and now we
50:10
have a worse deal than we had
50:13
before But he gets to say
50:15
that he did deals so that's cool.
50:17
He's he's president deals deals president
50:19
He's also, I mean, the one thing
50:21
that I think nobody can deny
50:23
is this guy is tough when it
50:26
comes to international stuff. I mean,
50:28
the way he is having to beg
50:30
Putin and say pretty please on
50:32
Twitter is so tough. I
50:34
feel like that could end
50:37
up being like one of the
50:39
ways that his whole stance
50:41
of like... I'm the only one
50:43
who can fix this. Only
50:45
my conventional wisdom is right. Every
50:48
other thing anybody has said
50:50
is wrong. His approach to Putin
50:52
being like, yeah, yeah, we're
50:54
on Putin's side. We'll give him
50:56
whatever he wants. That is
50:59
so obviously wrong for so many
51:01
reasons. Putin is an autocrat
51:03
and militarily is just looking to...
51:06
conquest. He's like, you
51:08
know, we've seen this before throughout
51:10
history. And the thing that works
51:12
is not going out of your
51:14
way to appease that person. Appeasement
51:17
was a strategy before
51:20
World War Two. And it
51:22
is not looked upon
51:24
kindly. And just like,
51:26
yeah, I don't know,
51:28
the last thing where as
51:30
they're trying to do
51:32
peace talks, Russia struck. Give
51:34
with like a the
51:36
biggest attack in like almost
51:38
a year and he's
51:41
like hey Vladimir stop like
51:43
literally Social apparently he's
51:45
not taking his calls because
51:47
he on true socials
51:49
that Vladimir comma all caps
51:51
stop 5 ,000 soldiers a
51:53
week are dying. Let's
51:55
get the peace deal done
51:58
Just, I don't know. Imagine, like,
52:00
talking to a Bond villain like
52:02
that. Yes. Like, he's literally
52:04
a Bond. Like, I don't know
52:06
if you guys have seen his house
52:08
in the mountains. It's like a...
52:11
How do you describe this? It looks
52:13
like a brutalist architect designed like
52:15
a villain slayer. It's over seeing a
52:17
giant forest. It's isolated on top
52:19
of a mountain. It's all white. It's
52:21
very crazy. I think it's kind
52:24
of interesting to me. like Trump is
52:26
like the popular girl at school,
52:28
you know, like he thinks he's on
52:30
top and now like he's trying
52:32
to figure out how to talk to
52:34
this guy to get him to
52:37
listen. It's insane to me because Putin's
52:39
never listened to anybody in his
52:41
entire existence. And the
52:43
fact that he thinks he can maneuver
52:45
and like, I think I've been reading
52:47
a lot about narcissists lately. Yeah.
52:49
And I one of the things
52:51
The people think are like the
52:53
narcissists are not trying to be
52:56
cruel. They believe their delusion Right
52:58
and to think you who else
53:00
has been reading a lot about
53:02
narcissists Vladimir Putin Russian military and
53:04
Yeah, just tell him he's right
53:06
dude. He'll fucking do anything. Yeah,
53:09
that's and I think that's the
53:11
wildest thing is that We have
53:13
gotten into a situation where there
53:15
is almost like Too much transparency
53:17
like we want the fake version
53:20
of this where it seems like
53:22
there is some kind of safety
53:24
net around the idea of who
53:26
the president is and things the
53:28
president can and can't do which
53:30
I have learned since moving here
53:33
in 2017 is essentially a trust
53:35
-based system with like no laws
53:37
and it's just Depends what the
53:39
person wants to do which sadly
53:41
for Democrats is usually nothing and
53:44
for Republicans is like become an
53:46
author or authoritarian government, but it's
53:48
like the the mechanics and the
53:50
machine are no longer there pretending
53:52
like Trump is sent a strongly
53:54
worded letter to Putin and he
53:57
called him and told him, don't
53:59
do that. You know, instead
54:01
it's just like he's on,
54:03
he's on his own weird Twitter
54:05
dupe sounding like, you know,
54:07
a cat. a baby brother. Yeah.
54:11
And also like, who believes that that's going
54:13
to make Vladimir Putin stop? Like, oh,
54:15
his followers, I want to know what the.
54:17
Support rating is like his polling numbers
54:20
are specifically for like do his followers actually
54:22
think when he posts that that he
54:24
seems like a cool big tough man Or
54:26
does he just seem like the little
54:28
baby brother like stuff? Well, I think some
54:30
people are like he's trying to be
54:32
tough man. I read that is Vladimir stop
54:35
Right. Oh, and that's how I that's
54:37
how I read that's the that's the ambiguity
54:39
about text You know, you can you
54:41
can put any kind of meaning on top
54:43
of it. But yeah, there's yeah, it's
54:45
like to your point He does have this
54:47
thing where he's constantly having a reckoning
54:49
with reality versus what his own expectation is
54:52
of how people are gonna receive him
54:54
and like even with in regards to like
54:56
Zelensky and making a deal he's like
54:58
okay asshole let's make a deal. You're gonna
55:00
get fuck all you're gonna seed all
55:02
this territory to Russia and you can't join
55:04
NATO and you'll give us all of
55:06
your rare earth minerals how does that sound
55:09
and he's like no. And
55:11
now suddenly he's like
55:13
fuck There's some good
55:15
messages in there for
55:17
him like power doesn't
55:19
panic There's some good
55:21
lessons in there for
55:23
season two for him.
55:26
So they will watch
55:28
and they're like, you
55:30
know what I learned
55:32
from The imperial government
55:34
seems great. No problems there.
55:37
Ultimate power, ultimate control, looking
55:39
good. And those stormtroopersuits, whoa, beautiful.
55:42
Really nicely designed. it ups its fashion,
55:44
it would be a win. If
55:47
it made Republicans as a whole
55:49
look better, at least we have this.
55:51
If they're killing us, at least make them look
55:53
nice. Let's take a
55:55
quick break and we'll come back. In
56:03
1978, Roger Caron's first book
56:05
was published and he was unlike
56:07
any first -time author Canada had
56:09
ever seen. Roger Caron was
56:11
16 when first convicted. He spent
56:13
24 of those years in
56:15
jail. 12 years in solitary. He
56:18
went from an ex -con to
56:20
a literary darling almost overnight. He
56:23
was instantly a celebrity. He
56:25
was an adrenaline junkie and he
56:27
was the star of the
56:29
show. Go Boy is the
56:31
gritty true story of how one man
56:33
fought his way out of some of
56:35
the darkest places imaginable. I had a
56:37
knife in my stomach, punctured my screen,
56:39
break my ribs, I had my guts
56:41
all on my hands. Only to find
56:44
himself back where he started. Roger's saying
56:46
is I've never hurt anybody but myself
56:48
and I said, oh you're so wrong.
56:50
You're so wrong on that one, Roger.
57:03
Hey, I'm
57:06
Dr. Maya Schunker. I host a podcast
57:08
called A Slight Change of Plans. I started
57:10
this show because unexpected change comes for
57:12
all of us and there's no set playbook
57:15
for how to deal with it. I
57:17
have all of this psychological baggage that I'm
57:19
carrying with me and the last thing
57:21
I want to do is to pass that
57:23
on to my daughter. So I have
57:25
to figure this out. This is this puzzle
57:27
of my trauma. I have to figure
57:29
it out and I have to figure it
57:31
out now. Join me this
57:34
season when I talk to Amanda
57:36
Knox about her choice to reconnect
57:38
with the prosecutor who helped put
57:40
her behind bars. This is not
57:42
about him. This is about me
57:44
and what I am capable of
57:46
giving, and I know that I
57:49
am capable of being kind to
57:51
this man. And
57:53
by God, I
57:55
am going to do it and no
57:57
one can stop me. Listen
57:59
to a slight change of plans on
58:01
the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever
58:03
you get your podcasts. Ever wonder what
58:05
it would be like to be mentored by
58:08
today's top business leaders? My
58:10
podcast, This Is Working, can help with that.
58:13
Here's advice from Google CMO Lorraine Twohill
58:15
on how to treat AI like
58:17
a partner. I see
58:19
AI as an incredible co -pilot. You may
58:21
use different tools or toys to get
58:23
the work done, but ultimately as editor,
58:26
as creator, as maker,
58:29
you own it. And it needs to
58:31
be good. AI is just the latest
58:33
flavor of that. You're still the judge
58:35
of what good looks like. I'm Dan
58:37
Roth, LinkedIn's editor -in -chief. On my podcast
58:39
This Is Working, leaders like Indra Nui,
58:41
Ray Dalio, and Rich Paul share strategies
58:44
for success and the real lessons that
58:46
have shaped them. Listen on the iHeart
58:48
radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you
58:50
get your podcasts. This
58:52

58:54

58:57

to you by Novartis, founding
59:51
partner of iHeart Women's Sports
59:53
Network. And
59:59
we're back. And man, it just
1:00:01
got a lot harder to be
1:00:03
in the academy. I'll tell you
1:00:05
what. I'm not
1:00:07
interested anymore. Sorry. I
1:00:09
wouldn't wish this job on
1:00:11
my worst enemy People
1:00:14
so the Academy of Motion
1:00:16
Pictures Arts and Sciences
1:00:18
have updated their rules for
1:00:20
next year's Oscars including
1:00:22
a bold new requirement The
1:00:24
Academy's app will track
1:00:27
members viewing to ensure they've
1:00:29
watched all the nominees
1:00:31
and if they saw it
1:00:33
somewhere else they have
1:00:35
to like Say where they
1:00:37
saw it. I know is the form is
1:00:39
the form gonna be like you got to
1:00:41
get it notarized by someone at the site
1:00:44
at the screening to be like they really
1:00:46
did watch this movie they didn't walk out
1:00:48
halfway. I saw it on like Friday at
1:00:50
the AMC I think. 16.
1:00:54
All these tickets are digitized. If you're
1:00:56
going to a festival, you got your
1:00:58
digitized tickets and go to the AMC.
1:01:01
Trust me, you're an AMC sub -member for part of the Academy.
1:01:03
Okay, you got it right there. So you can see your
1:01:05
phone. You can pull it up at any time. It's
1:01:08
never been easier. And then you
1:01:10
just sign in when you go to
1:01:12
your Academy screenings. This is so
1:01:14
long. It's egregious to allow people to
1:01:16
vote without having seen all of
1:01:18
the... Absolutely wild. Rosie, Rosie,
1:01:20
Rosie, you're from the UK. I am. Have
1:01:24
the voters for the BAFTAs do such
1:01:26
an absurd thing? Impossible, Miles.
1:01:28
This is so onerous. You may be
1:01:30
shocked to know that BAFTA has
1:01:32
actually been doing it. I know, can
1:01:34
you imagine? Which
1:01:36
I actually think there's something really interesting
1:01:38
for somebody more data -minded than me.
1:01:40
I'm a vibes guy, you know,
1:01:42
I like, I know like what comic
1:01:44
book issue someone arrived in, but
1:01:47
I'm not good at maths or data.
1:01:49
But I think there probably is
1:01:51
a very interesting data -based piece out
1:01:53
there or exploration of what the differences
1:01:55
in the BAFTA and the Oscars
1:01:57
have been over that last few years
1:01:59
where BAFTA was actually having to
1:02:01
watch every movie. Because sometimes there are
1:02:03
some big sea changes at the
1:02:05
BAFTAs when a movie will suddenly take
1:02:07
like 10 awards, but then doesn't
1:02:09
do anything at the Oscars. And I
1:02:11
wonder how much that correlates with
1:02:13
the fact that people just weren't watching
1:02:15
the movies, which I think is
1:02:17
very obvious. with pretty much every year
1:02:19
of the Oscars, is like, there
1:02:21
will be something where you're just like,
1:02:24
how did that get in? Like,
1:02:26
why is that what one? Why
1:02:28
wasn't It's through the best parties, babe. Exactly.
1:02:31
They said that. They said that
1:02:33
they're so charismatic. I succumbed
1:02:35
to all the billboards on Sunset. Dude,
1:02:38
I think about those billboards all
1:02:40
the time. It must be so weird
1:02:42
as like an LA lifer. Because
1:02:44
when I drive past them, I'm always
1:02:46
like, Oh, yeah, this is just
1:02:48
for the execs, right? This is 60
1:02:50
people in the city. So that
1:02:52
60 people will say, ah, they're spending
1:02:54
my money. Like, this is where
1:02:56
the money goes. It's on this giant
1:02:58
billboard. And it's completely wild because
1:03:00
you end up kind of, they live
1:03:02
style, seeing through what
1:03:04
at first is like a
1:03:06
very glamorous, glittery experience of like,
1:03:08
oh, for your consideration, for
1:03:11
your consideration. Wow, like they're really
1:03:13
pushing this actor I love.
1:03:15
But actually, 90 % of the
1:03:17
people who are voting for the
1:03:19
Oscars are probably like not
1:03:22
even gonna know it's that billboard,
1:03:24
you know, they're gonna say
1:03:26
Zazz over here look over here
1:03:28
The billboards just start directly
1:03:30
addressing them. Yeah Don't fire the
1:03:33
guy don't fire the people
1:03:35
who It's a miracle don't do
1:03:37
it watching flea bag we're
1:03:39
watching flea bag avert your eyes
1:03:41
avert your eyes the yeah
1:03:44
For people who aren't from LA,
1:03:46
there are just like a
1:03:48
next level billboard campaigns, like really
1:03:50
like award season, well designed, aggressive,
1:03:53
like there will be like,
1:03:55
you know, a billboard
1:03:57
with like things. Popping
1:03:59
of it. Oh my god the 9
1:04:01
-1 -1 billboard that's by LAX where
1:04:03
it has the people it has like
1:04:05
mannequins coming out of a 3d
1:04:08
roller coaster that show started like eight
1:04:10
years ago guys like I'm happy
1:04:12
it's still there, but like that's the
1:04:14
level of Dedication they have letting
1:04:16
it be like continued on another billboard
1:04:18
like across the street, right? Yeah,
1:04:20
I'm surprised more accidents don't happen over
1:04:22
there. They're very like I catching
1:04:24
in huge and sometimes not subtle in
1:04:26
the text department. You're just like
1:04:28
this. So what am I looking at
1:04:30
really? It's bright as hell.
1:04:32
If you've ever driven down sunset, guys, we
1:04:34
were playing Grand Theft Auto. Yes.
1:04:36
Obviously. Yes. And you have those like really
1:04:38
horny billboards in the main part. That's
1:04:40
it. It's exactly right. It's exactly that vibe.
1:04:42
Yeah. Well, I think the other thing
1:04:44
is like Angelino is like we we've just
1:04:46
we're just numb to them because they've
1:04:48
been around all the time. They
1:04:51
don't catch on blindness. Yeah, I don't
1:04:53
know bro. It's a fucking bunch of
1:04:55
bullshit on the street and I
1:04:57
don't give a fuck. I'm trying to
1:04:59
get to my job. Like fuck all
1:05:01
this. I definitely like feel that especially
1:05:03
about the barrier sunset where there's
1:05:05
like a where the rainbow lounges and
1:05:07
where all of those spots are because
1:05:09
there is a now basically a permanent
1:05:11
almost a block where Netflix will
1:05:13
always do the most insane adverts. So
1:05:16
whenever I'm over there for work, it's
1:05:18
like the stranger things like scary monster
1:05:20
and there's like smoke coming out of
1:05:22
it and when Millie Bobby Brown
1:05:24
was in a movie called damsel that
1:05:26
nobody watched there's like a giant Millie
1:05:28
Bobby Brown with the sword and it's
1:05:30
like guys it's just like a
1:05:32
photo art like is this where you're
1:05:34
spending our extra money every month like
1:05:36
I don't think you need it my
1:05:39
friends how about you just watch
1:05:41
just make people watch the thing you
1:05:43
know as well a lot of people
1:05:45
in the academy because it's the most
1:05:47
prestigious they are getting like Crazy
1:05:49
swag they are getting really beautiful for
1:05:51
your consideration DVD box sets that have
1:05:53
like every a 24 or neon movie
1:05:55
that was released that year And
1:05:57
then you just don't watch it like
1:05:59
come on man They're giving you physical
1:06:02
media like please just watch watch the
1:06:04
blood onto put them on a shelf
1:06:06
It's nice. Maybe one day streaming
1:06:08
will be over and you'll be wishing
1:06:10
that you had the Ari asked
1:06:12
a triple bill box set or whatever
1:06:14
they sent me But yeah, I mean
1:06:16
I think many people on the internet
1:06:18
were rightfully shocked about this that this
1:06:20
wasn't already like the only job you
1:06:22
had Are you do I mean? I
1:06:24
know like the logic would say well
1:06:26
This will only help voting become more
1:06:28
efficient the other part of me knows
1:06:30
like people with any shred of privilege
1:06:32
Will do anything that like according to
1:06:34
the way they want to do it
1:06:37
so I can also see other people
1:06:39
starting to fake like being like Oh,
1:06:41
yeah, I saw that I was saying
1:06:43
this before we started but like Honestly,
1:06:45
like do that then like the real
1:06:47
reason they at least take the effort
1:06:49
Here like the big reason in my
1:06:51
opinion just from like what I've seen
1:06:53
and the way this stuff is reported
1:06:55
on last year a lot of the
1:06:58
trade kind of anonymous voting pools that they
1:07:00
do where the voters say a bunch of
1:07:02
bitchy stuff and everyone reads it and is
1:07:04
like wow, why are you allowed to vote
1:07:06
in this. And a lot of them last
1:07:08
year multiple ones were people saying they
1:07:10
hadn't watched every movie. I didn't watch this
1:07:13
because I don't like it. I didn't watch
1:07:15
this because it has it. Oh, I didn't
1:07:17
watch. You know conclave because ray finds already
1:07:19
has an oscar i didn't watch you know
1:07:21
the brutalist because adrian brody already has an
1:07:23
oscar he'd actually only just been nominated and
1:07:25
then Right when and you saw what
1:07:27
happened so don't vote for him again, but
1:07:29
like Yeah, it's it's very funny that i
1:07:31
think they were too honest And i think
1:07:34
that everyone online and in the thing was
1:07:36
like wait a minute You're telling me like
1:07:38
the reason anora one is just because you
1:07:40
guys didn't watch the other movies like that
1:07:42
seems insane Did you even want to know
1:07:44
if you voted for it? Maybe not.
1:07:46
So I think this is a good idea.
1:07:48
I caught some of it. Yeah. I saw
1:07:50
a bit. I saw the bit where she's
1:07:53
like dancing in the boys' apartment. You know,
1:07:55
I just skipped that and then just everything
1:07:57
That was pretty tight. That trailer was fire.
1:07:59
The trailer also then fire. Exactly. That's
1:08:02
why I'm like, I'm like, just lie. Like, if
1:08:04
you don't want to do it, just lie. And that
1:08:06
you could have avoided all of this because I
1:08:08
have used multiple, and Joelle, I
1:08:10
know you've been through this
1:08:13
too, multiple badly positioned IP
1:08:15
streaming services where they want to take your
1:08:17
data as a view or as a journalist and
1:08:20
they'll add an app to your vocal TV
1:08:22
and then you stream through there this reminds me
1:08:24
of. that one South by Southwest did a
1:08:26
few years ago. And it was so janky.
1:08:28
It was just always full of glitches. It was
1:08:30
so hard to watch the movies. And I
1:08:32
do not believe that the Academy is going to
1:08:34
have a better working one. So I think
1:08:36
we're going to see a lot of complaints about
1:08:39
the app. And I did watch it and
1:08:41
it didn't say it would work and blah, blah,
1:08:43
blah, blah, blah. Is that they're doing it
1:08:45
through an app? There is an app. that basically
1:08:47
works like how our Netflix preview content works.
1:08:49
So they can see if you've watched the whole
1:08:51
movie. Academy, call Apple TV.
1:08:54
They have the best one. It's fluid.
1:08:56
There are never any issues. Whatever they're
1:08:58
doing, you do that too. So pay
1:09:00
for it. No, that's what like
1:09:02
for the Hollywood foreign press, they were given
1:09:04
Apple TV units that had like sort of
1:09:06
this proprietary software on it to be like,
1:09:08
all right, okay, you don't want to go
1:09:10
to the screen, like especially during the pandemic
1:09:12
and like the height of the lockdowns. They
1:09:14
weren't they weren't like physical media had kind
1:09:16
of cease and like okay just do everything
1:09:18
through this apple tv and watch it is
1:09:20
so simple is really the people in the
1:09:22
academy are gonna find a way to make
1:09:24
this a free speech issue. Oh, we shouldn't
1:09:26
have to do this. We shouldn't have to
1:09:28
watch the movie. Free speech. You're
1:09:30
violating my free speech. If I won't consider a
1:09:33
Democrat for president, and I always do. absolutely
1:09:35
do not have to be a member of the
1:09:37
Academy. You can go on with your life
1:09:39
and do something else. Exactly. Let's try. Last
1:09:41
year, I watched 500 movies that I
1:09:43
looked on my notebooks. Like, I could
1:09:45
do it. I'll watch them all. Let
1:09:47
me. Letterbox community has Oscar voters for
1:09:49
two years. Wow. Let's just see what
1:09:52
happens. Let's just what what be great.
1:09:54
That would be cool if they were
1:09:56
like, using Letterbox as like the minors
1:09:58
where they're like just trying to kind
1:10:00
of sculpt for talent. I
1:10:02
love that idea. Give them a check
1:10:04
mark. I would also say as
1:10:06
well like this, yeah, this speaks to
1:10:08
another problem, which is the struggle
1:10:10
between like the idea of like a
1:10:12
popular cinema and what the Oscars
1:10:14
celebrate. And I would say
1:10:16
I think that this could lead
1:10:18
to us having more blockbuster
1:10:20
accessible movies being recognized because I think
1:10:23
that for a lot of these Academy
1:10:25
members, especially the older ones who weren't
1:10:27
brought in in the last few years,
1:10:29
they would probably actually more enjoy watching
1:10:31
like an action blockbuster than they would
1:10:33
watching a lot of these movies, especially
1:10:35
if they haven't been watching them. So
1:10:37
I'm interested to see if that if
1:10:39
this kind of weirdly like opens a
1:10:41
door. And with the casting and stunts,
1:10:44
that makes a lot of sense. Exactly.
1:10:46
I wonder if they're if we'll also
1:10:48
see no more three hour long
1:10:50
movies. They're like fuck that's what I'm
1:10:52
saying I actually think suddenly 90
1:10:55
minute movies two hour long movies should
1:10:57
be the front burner for everything
1:10:59
this year especially with cinematography with stunt
1:11:01
work It could really be that
1:11:03
that movie I'm looking forward to the
1:11:05
package for stunt work You know
1:11:07
like the thing in the broadcast where
1:11:09
they show like how the best
1:11:11
stunts were done. I feel like that
1:11:13
could be really cool Did you
1:11:15
watch the Oscars last year? Yes.
1:11:18
Okay, so do you remember? Basically, the
1:11:21
they had a package like that that
1:11:23
had been part of the promotional kind
1:11:25
of push for the fall guy or
1:11:27
fall guy. I think it was called
1:11:29
the Ryan Gosling, Emily Blunt movie. And
1:11:31
basically, the entire aim of them making
1:11:33
that movie was to get A stunt
1:11:35
Oscar recognition. So they kind of did
1:11:37
a package and it was super super
1:11:39
cool And everyone was just like why
1:11:41
are we not already giving the award
1:11:44
like so many movies? So I think
1:11:46
that could be really sick Especially if
1:11:48
they get like, you know, you know,
1:11:50
Tom Cruise is gonna be trying to
1:11:52
get like that mission impossible shit on
1:11:54
there So who knows maybe Tom can
1:11:56
make this one shaped like me. Yeah,
1:11:58
he's gonna like parachute into the Oscars
1:12:00
or something like I'm here for it
1:12:02
like let the stunts roll Yeah, and
1:12:05
for casting I think they should have
1:12:07
to say who was also being considered.
1:12:10
Who the studio was trying to get
1:12:12
them to cast in the role when
1:12:14
they cast and when they like, actually
1:12:16
nailed the casting. Yeah. They're
1:12:18
just like, have the worst possible person
1:12:20
in the role. Like, do a
1:12:22
scene, be like, you see how bad
1:12:24
this shit could have been? Yep.
1:12:26

1:13:13
media or show I well I
1:13:16
have I am a perennial murder.
1:13:18
She wrote rewatcher as we mentioned,
1:13:20
but I have been Really enjoying
1:13:22
the JD bands killed the Pope
1:13:24
memes that's been like getting me
1:13:26
through like a definitely I had
1:13:29
a really one of the one
1:13:31
where it's like the Hieronymus post
1:13:33
like painting of the devil like
1:13:35
shaking hands with you know a
1:13:37
religious figure and then you have
1:13:39
the same image from the White
1:13:42
House pool of JD. I
1:13:44
love the, um, just killed at a
1:13:46
Pope. Like that's what JD stands for.
1:13:48
Big fan of all of that. So yeah, those,
1:13:50
those, those memes have been keeping me going. I'm,
1:13:52
I'm a meme lover. Just killed
1:13:54
it. Just killed at a Pope. That's
1:13:56
his new name. Just killed a dope. Amazing.
1:14:00
Joel, where can people find you?
1:14:02
Is there a working media you've been enjoying?
1:14:04
Yeah, I've been Joe Monique. You find
1:14:06
me all over the internet at Joe Monique.
1:14:09
That's J -O -E -L -L -E -M -O -N -I -Q -U
1:14:11
-E. I have two. One,
1:14:13
Larry David wrote a New York
1:14:15
Times satirical piece called My
1:14:17
Dinner With... sort of taking on
1:14:19
Bill Maher having dinner with
1:14:21
Trump. It is hysterical and delightful.
1:14:24
Shout out Larry David for being a real one.
1:14:26
He is a real one. It is so
1:14:28
great. And then just want
1:14:30
to highly encourage everyone to check
1:14:33
out Andorra. It is a, what
1:14:35
did Jason call it? Like how to
1:14:37
how to. How to build a resistance.
1:14:40
Like how to build a rebellion. Yeah. Yeah.
1:14:43
It's it's. Genuinely touching in
1:14:45
ways I could not have fathomed
1:14:47
and it is significantly better
1:14:49
than the first season, which I
1:14:51
thought was great. Like this
1:14:53
is truly to me. This is
1:14:55
the best season of television
1:14:57
since Watchmen. It's
1:15:00
pretty unbelievable and it's
1:15:02
definitely one of those shows
1:15:04
too. I like Just
1:15:06
timing -wise means that they couldn't have been
1:15:08
trying to predict stuff, but it feels
1:15:10
extremely prescient when you do watch it. It
1:15:12
absolutely feels like a letter to you
1:15:14
about getting your shit together right now. It's
1:15:16
like there's no time. There's no time
1:15:18
to get your shit together right now. It's
1:15:20
brilliant and beautiful. And it's truly, if
1:15:22
you look for your Star Wars diehard, like
1:15:24
I am, this really gets
1:15:26
to the heart of like what makes
1:15:28
Star Wars great. And yet it's elevated
1:15:30
to like a BBC masterclass level of
1:15:32
television. It's brilliant. I really enjoy it.
1:15:34
I'm trying to get everyone to watch
1:15:37
it. My insider pro advice is wait
1:15:39
till Friday when you can watch all
1:15:41
episodes back to back. There's three episodes.
1:15:43
You can watch them separately. It is
1:15:45
still structured like television, but it's so
1:15:47
much better when you're watching these like
1:15:49
a full movie. So those are my
1:15:51
tips. Go check out Android. Damn.
1:15:53
That's uh that's coming from joel
1:15:55
money miles where can people find
1:15:57
you as their work immediate you've
1:15:59

the basketball pod is miles and
1:16:05
jack i'm at boosties the 90
1:16:07

1:16:09
20 day fiance check me out
1:16:11
there a couple of Posts I
1:16:13
like from blue sky at Lauren
1:16:15
dot rotating sandwiches.com posted work is
1:16:17
giving us a Chick -fil -A breakfast
1:16:19
buffet and a Ben and Jerry's
1:16:21
ice cream social today and what
1:16:23
I'm calling the most successful political
1:16:25
both sizing of all time And
1:16:27
then at Kendra writes calm on
1:16:29
blue sky posted this video from
1:16:31
tick -tock of police harassing a
1:16:33
guy in Massachusetts clearly in Massachusetts
1:16:35
based on the person who is
1:16:38
Filming this the caption on the
1:16:40
video says I started a reverse
1:16:42
neighborhood watch program Basically, he's observing
1:16:44
the police and this interaction is
1:16:46
just it's just made all the
1:16:48
better because of this guy's very
1:16:50
distinct Massachusetts Boston accent It doesn't
1:16:52
look like anything you're allowed to
1:16:54
Oh, sorry. So in this video,
1:16:56
I should describe it. This is
1:16:58
an audio part. This is an
1:17:00
audio medium He's this guy's across
1:17:02
the street filming like three cops
1:17:04
hemming up some guy like outside
1:17:06
of a car and just stopping
1:17:08
him. We don't know the reason
1:17:10
why but again, this is where
1:17:12
the man starts yelling at the
1:17:14
cops to leave him alone. It
1:17:16
doesn't look like anything. You're allowed to
1:17:19
drive wherever you want. It's America. It's
1:17:22
America. It's America. They're
1:17:24
just racist. It's okay. They're just racist.
1:17:26
You're not allowed to drive around with
1:17:28
them if you're a minority. Good
1:17:32
man. How you doing? You
1:17:34
guys still protecting pedophiles like Philly?
1:17:37
There you go. Have a
1:17:39
great day. Fuck you. That's
1:17:44
community care, baby. That's what we're going
1:17:46
to be trying to do. And he said
1:17:48
he was referencing, like in the video,
1:17:50
a pop -up comes up about a lieutenant
1:17:52
from their police department that was charged with
1:17:54
child sex abuse. And then the guy
1:17:56
says, why don't you go back to your
1:17:58
house? And he goes, yeah, fuck you. No,
1:18:01
why don't you go back?
1:18:03
Yeah, fuck you. you. Fuck you,
1:18:05
Pa. $1 .25, Pa. Well,
1:18:09
told his willy reference. Yeah, yeah.
