There’s more news and less comprehension today than any historical period that didn’t involve literal witch trials, and trying to stay on top of it all can feel like playing a game of telephone with 30 people, except everyone’s speaking at the same time and like a third of them are openly racist for some reason. From Cracked co-founder Jack O’Brien, THE DAILY ZEITGEIST is stepping into that fray with some of the funniest and smartest comedic and journalistic minds around. Jack and co-host Miles Gray spend up to an hour every weekday sorting through the events and stories driving the headlines, to help you find the signal in the noise, with a few laughs thrown in for free.

00:14
Speaker 2
Yeah, good, that's why you missed us, bro.
00:16
Speaker 3
No, but yeah, I mean I remember. I think that
00:18
was in the the pilot of the Shield where they
00:22
called it a sock party. No Vic Mackie brings in
00:26
a fucking phone book to beat the ship out of
00:28
someone in a police interrogation, to be like, Bro, this
00:30
shitting even to leave bruises. I'm about to beat the hell.
00:32
Speaker 2
Out of you with this phone book with a phone book. Yeah, yeah,
00:34
because not leave Bruce, because the point of impact is
00:39

00:43
Speaker 3
Yeah, but I'm like, I don't know, bro, somebody definitely
00:46
slapped in the face, that's definitely.
00:48
Speaker 2
That's like that thing like you you have to tell
00:50
me if you're a cop, Like, yeah, like a thing
00:52
that they used in the movie or like the first
00:54
phone call. It's like a thing a rule they made
00:57
up for the movies to move things dramatically forward, whereas
01:02
in reality it's just like doesn't work that way. In reality,
01:05
the police don't give a funk if you get a bruise.
01:10
Speaker 3
Oh wow, there's some fucking Instagram video called can phone
01:14
books leave bruises experiment experiment?

Speaker 3
What are you doing with lighter? We're making a video
02:12
r about of an experiment began to at least bruise something.

02:25
go lay down out in the backyard with my bare
02:28
ass in the ass down as what.
02:30
Speaker 3
That's the way we like to experiment.
02:42
Speaker 2
Hello the Internet, and welcome to season three, seventy eight,
02:45
Episode three of I Got It. That's right, it's a
02:49
production of iHeart Radio, and it is a podcast where
02:52
we take a deep dive into American share consciousness. It's
02:54
fucking true. It's true what they say. We do, take
02:57
a deep dive into America share consciousness. It is Wednesday,
03:01
March fifth, twenty twenty five.
03:05
Speaker 3
Find another a March the fifth Man. Well, it's National
03:10
wrong Cheese Doodle Day. It's National absynth today. And hey,
03:14
why don't you pull up to the guy with the
03:16
funny collar and the big house and let him put
03:18
some ash on your forehead and a plus sign because
03:21
it's ash Wednesday. Y'all.
03:24
Speaker 2
I've been hearing abouday sun. Did you think what what
03:31
was that? I don't know I was I was trying

03:34
Speaker 3

Speaker 2
Get your ash on.
03:39
Speaker 3
Is this when lent starts? Is let baby baby?
03:42
Speaker 2
This is so yesterday, Fat Tuesday, Tuesday, because this is
03:47
when the Catholics stop. It's like Ramadan, but they can't
03:50
eat at all.
03:53
Speaker 3
Forty days, forty nights.
03:54
Speaker 2
The Catholics aren't allowed to eat it all or give
03:57
up your so many kids.
03:59
Speaker 3
I love the logic of the twisted logic I applied
04:02
to observing lent because for me, I was like, this
04:05
is how I'm going to rebounce my karmic scale to
04:08
be like, I've been fucking up God, I won't smoke
04:12
weed during the week. And that was what I did. Uh.
04:18
Speaker 2
Those are like my first brushes with sobriety.
04:21
Speaker 3
Was like, I'm gonna try. I'm going to try and
04:24
quit drinking for lent.
04:26
Speaker 2
And I actually did it once in my twenties and
04:29
I was like, so I can't have a problem.
04:31
Speaker 3
I'm good here, right.
04:32
Speaker 2
Uh yeah, And then I tried it again in my thirties.
04:36
Didn't take more than a couple of days. The four loco, Yeah, yeah, exactly,
04:41
And now I don't drink at all.
04:44
Speaker 3
Anyway, they should make three loco to you know, to
04:47
honor the triune god for Trinity. Trinity, let's take one
04:52
loco off the fucking table here. I get back to Brad.
04:55
I mean, it was father something was.
04:58
Speaker 2
It made illegal like they outlawed it.
05:00
Speaker 3
There was pre band, there is there's the pre band
05:04
for loco that killed a couple of kids. And then yes,
05:08
and then the other stuff that just made gave you
05:11
terrible stomach problems if you pounded more than.
05:14
Speaker 1
Yeah, so the problem is big government interfering.
05:17
Speaker 2
Saying RFK is here.
05:23
Speaker 3
And ran the famous vampire libertarian author.
05:27
Speaker 2
Yes he's on her grind. Oh yeah, my name is

No, no, we did not. It's gonna be a mall
06:28
parking lot.
06:29
Speaker 2
Does make me wonder though Halsey on Salads, using the
06:33
death of Skype to in that song context does imply
06:37
that that good Night, Sweetheart song was about so like
06:41
someone they were about to murder. Maybe, I don't know,
06:44
spook spooky if you think about it that way. Anyways,

don't know if that's like a weird thing or light
07:24
OCD or whatever, but there was like a time where
07:26
like I could not like I would figure out if
07:29
I was fucking with a word based on how it
07:31
sounded backwards to me. Yeah, yeah, anyway, I still do
07:34
that shit. Don't worry about it.
07:35
Speaker 2
It's a it's very un't worry about it.
07:38
Speaker 3

Speaker 2
It does seem like we're going to try and go
09:39
Trump free on this bitch. But it does seem like
09:42
we're we might be seeing the beginnings of some sort
09:46
of the mainstream media waking.
09:48
Speaker 3
Up, because it's you can do whatever.
09:54
Speaker 2
That turns out, you can do whatever the fuck you want,
09:56
as long as you don't as well, just don't.
09:58
Speaker 3
Fuck up my money.
09:59
Speaker 2
Yes, yeah, yees yeah, Ben, We're thrilled to have you here.
10:04
We're gonna get to know you a little bit better
10:06
in a moment. First, we are going to tell the
10:08
listeners a couple of the things that we're talking about
10:10
today on this video episode. You can go watch this
10:14
on YouTube see what see what it looks like On Friday, First,
10:20
we're going to check in with our ongoing destroid watch.
10:24
Speaker 3
It's like, let's go.
10:28
Speaker 2
Asid Yeah all right, Yeah, it's for some reason the
10:33
media has been quiet about it. We got a.
10:35
Speaker 3
Lot of it because it's so scary.
10:38
Speaker 2
The chances have gone up.
10:39
Speaker 3
Yeah, we'll check in.
10:41
Speaker 2
Usually do a really good job about, like, you know,
10:44
de escalate when they have a problem they're talking about.
10:46
They usually do a good job of de escalating and
10:48
being like okay, guys. So it turns out not so.
10:51
So we're just going to check in see what the
10:53
percentage is that we are going to My underrated a
10:57
few weeks ago was like mondanity and just like finding
11:01
mundane shit to do, reconnecting with the mundane, because everybody's
11:05
just connected to this big, horrible hive mind where we
11:09
all feel like we're losing all the time. And so
11:12
we're gonna do a mundanity check and some of the
11:16
trends trends of just the stupidest mundane shit people are
11:21
doing online. And we're also we're also going to connect
11:25
with our ridiculous history appearances because there's some weird flexes
11:31
from history that we want to check in with. Some
11:36
mundane trends from the past that we want to talk
11:40
to you about. Ben, I am so on board with us.
11:42
By the way, we will talk about Mark Zuckerberg's Benson
11:47
Boone tribute to his wife.
11:50
Speaker 1
It's all about her in a way that was all
11:53
about him and her. I mean me, yes, all of
11:57
that plenty more. But first, Ben, we do you like
12:00
to ask our guests what is something from your search
12:02
history that is revealing about who you are?
12:05
Speaker 2
All right?
12:06
Speaker 1
I know you guys rightly roast me on some of
12:10
these things. First off, I got super into camels. Camels
12:16
switching off marlboroughs. I hear that's better for your Turkey
12:19
silver long distance running.
12:20
Speaker 2
Yeah, more Turkish royal. Yeuy, you're right.
12:23
Speaker 1
Uh No, dude, camels look goofy. Everybody is pretending that
12:30
camels are a normal thing you saw in person. I
12:36
have seen camels in the past, not to brag. Also
12:39
to your earlier point about historical flexes. You guys, remember
12:43
you taught me that Charles Darwin actually ate instance of animal.
12:48
So I ate some camel recently, and I felt kind
12:51
of bad because you know, if you look at them,
12:54
they got the clown shoes, you know, through millions of
12:57
years of evolution. They're always kind of American at you.
13:01
Speaker 2
Wait, they have big feet that like go out like
13:04
like our feet. What do you mean clown shoes? Dude?
13:06
Speaker 1
They have very wide like why they fat feet. Yeah,
13:10
they're like Clydesdale's. Yeah, Quintin Terrans Clydesdale's Quentin Tarantino would
13:15
love it as she learns about camel feet.
13:18
Speaker 3
Not enough to on that, not enough total for him.
13:20
Speaker 4
Bro.
13:23
Speaker 1
Uh yeah, cammel camel's are. In the previous conversation, we
13:28
talked about the octopus and the fact that the octopus
13:31
can dream, right, and uh, how they can exhibit colors
13:36
via their chrematophorce. Anyway, I got super into camels because we,
13:40
uh we found out on ridiculous history that back in
13:44
the eighteen hundreds, the US government tried to start their
13:48
own camel core that's what they called it.
13:52
Speaker 3
That's a sub genre of music.
13:55
Speaker 1
I b yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's the new
14:00
Uzbek drill rap exactly, camel cor.
14:03
Speaker 2
Yeah.
14:04
Speaker 1
So learned about that and then thought of you guys
14:06
when I was looking into another thing about astrology and government,
14:13
like how the the world powers will often consult low
14:18
key with astrologers to determine timing of policy. At this point,
14:23
I have to ask you, guys, what's your sign?
14:26
Speaker 2
M I mean, first of all, my only complaint with
14:28
that is that it's low key. I think we should
14:31
all be respecting the stars openly and proudly. My sign
14:35
is Leo, and I've never told anyone that I was
14:39
a Leo without them being like, that makes sense, And
14:43
then they've never been able to explain why it makes
14:45
sense to me in a way that is satisfactory.
14:47
Speaker 3
Right, because you go on a room and you just
14:50
let you just roar and let everybody know, I know,
14:54
big personality like that sort of stereotypical Leo trade. Yeah,
14:59
I'm a Virgo like nine percent of the earth.
15:01
Speaker 1
Uh huh right, right, Like you're on the you're on
15:04
a date and someone says, oh my god, you're Sagittarius
15:08
and you say, oh, what's that?
15:09
Speaker 2
A one and twelve chance?
15:11
Speaker 3
That's not right?
15:12
Speaker 1
We should play another stupid version of the lottery.
15:16
Speaker 3
They what did they? What happens like an astrologers like
15:18
I don't don't fucking sign no Voting Rights Act? Right now? Wait?
15:22
Speaker 1
True story, true story. Okay, two examples keep it quick Uh.
15:26
The nation of Myanmar back in like two thousand and five,
15:30
they moved their entire fucking capital to a new place
15:34
that had not been built because an astrologer told them
15:38
they needed to avoid a disaster. So for true believers,
15:43
this becomes interesting because three years later, in two thousand
15:47
and eight, the biggest natural disaster in all of the
15:51
nation's history of mean mark It hit the location of
15:56
the old capital. So people were again convinced that there
16:01
was some sort of discernible, predictable pattern in the stars.
16:05
For a lot of us in the Zeit Gang gang
16:09
guying guy, all right.
16:11
Speaker 3
You're from the South, don't you don't have to cover it.
16:13
Speaker 2
Up, you guys? Uh?
16:17
Speaker 1
Ronald Reagan and the Reagan administration gang. Yes, yeah, sorry, guys,
16:24
I was regang Uh consulted with uh an astrologer named
16:30
Joan Quickly and.
16:32
Speaker 2
Yeah, and Nancy and Ryan yeah yeah, some of some
16:36
of our greatest decision makers of all time. Did you
16:39
guys hear that Tarantino announced his tenth movie. No, yeah,
16:44
it's gonna be an adaptation of this Little Piggy. All right, Ben,
16:49
what is something that you think is underrated?
16:53
Speaker 1
Underrated? Since we're talking about the South waffle House. Waffle
16:57
House severely underrated. FEMA needs waffle House to uh to
17:02
rate natural disasters, which is crazy. The waffle House Index
17:07
is a real thing. It's like unofficial getting air quotes.
17:12
But but yeah.
17:14
Speaker 3
Folks at home, he's doing air quotes people that are
17:15
just listening. That's why you should check out the YouTube.
17:18
Check out the YouTube episode on Friday so you can
17:21
see his fingers go.
17:23
Speaker 2
Yeah, yeah, I've got a fingies.
17:25
Speaker 3
We saw.
17:27
Speaker 7
Going, yeah, can I get the breakfast omelet with some
17:37
potato fingies.
17:40
Speaker 3
Roasted potato fingies.
17:42
Speaker 2
Have you guys been the waffles?
17:43
Speaker 3
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, hell yeah man, oh yeah about like
17:47
it capped?
17:47
Speaker 2
I like it smothered, you know, smothered, covered, covered, Wait,
17:51
which one's cheese? I forget anyway?
17:56
Speaker 3
Yes, everything onions, gravy, ge whatever, bro, I want to
18:00
all asleep at the table.
18:02
Speaker 2
They'll fuck with you. Yeah it we I think during
18:06
like our last like when they were like five hurricanes
18:09
converging on the southeast of the US, we covered a
18:13
story about the waffle House Index and that like they
18:16
take it seriously. They're like they have their own situation room.
18:20
Yeah right, the like of meteorologists. They're tracking these because
18:24
they were like, well, we need to stay open. We
18:27
make great money when we're the only thing that's open
18:31
within one hundred square miles, So we like track everything, know,
18:37
like what needs to happen in order to stay open.
18:40
And because the government is apparently cheap, they're just like, yeah,
18:44
let's just pay attention to their the thing and are
18:47
you guys open? Yes, that's what they do. Yeah.
18:50
Speaker 1
And also this, uh, this goes into our idea of prognostication,
18:56
the idea of measuring, as we said, the uh not
19:00
on zero likelihood of asteroids showing up just a party.
19:04
Speaker 2
Uh.
19:04
Speaker 1
And uh, I gotta tell you, guys, I was thinking
19:08
of waffle House specifically because of the disaster index, but
19:14
also because I recently got in deep with waffle House.
19:18
I'm trying to extricate myself.
19:20
Speaker 2
You ow them money.
19:22
Speaker 1
They're pretty gangster man, Honestly, you know, I just don't
19:26
want to end up scattered, covered and smothered, you know,
19:29
So I'm going to recommend.
19:31
Speaker 3
You saw what happened that last guy who had renegged
19:33
on that NFT deal with waffle House, like you're trying
19:36
to do. They put all that American cheese down his throat.
19:41
Speaker 2
Yeah, what is something, Ben? Do you think is overrated?
19:46
Speaker 1
Artificial intelligence?
19:48
Speaker 2
Come off it? What?
19:52
Speaker 3
Now?
19:53
Speaker 2
You know?
19:54
Speaker 3
Now?
19:54
Speaker 2
I think it's underrated because everybody keeps talking about it.
20:00
Speaker 3
Do you know people who actually have that kind of
20:02
fucking like logic they apply to things like, well, now
20:05
that everyone's against it, I'm actually for it. You're like,
20:09
I like a research thing that just tells me what
20:12
I want to hear. I think that's especially important in
20:14
our modern world.
20:16
Speaker 2
Yeah, I just all right, So here's the thing.
20:19
Speaker 1
Philosophically, Uh, this is gonna sound dumb, but humans can't
20:23
define intelligence to begin with. So if an intelligent thing exists,
20:29
why is it inherently artificial? Also, also, the large language
20:34
models are just kind of trash. And I feel like
20:37
an old Dodo yelling at the sky.
20:39
Speaker 2
You know what I mean.
20:40
Speaker 1
And I know it's I know, like you guys are
20:43
shouting out already. It's it's very there's a very important
20:48
social trend to be contrarian or to love a thing
20:52
or to hate a thing. But I would look at
20:54
the money at this point, you know what I mean?
20:57
And I love that NFT comparison. Yeah, remember when everybody
21:01
was all about at FTSE and there was like board
21:04
ape or whatever, and that was the future.
21:06
Speaker 3
Even selling episodes of podcasts I as NFTs I've heard anyway,
21:13
but that's neither here nor there. But yeah, no, I
21:15
mean I think that is a huge part of it.
21:17
Is like you just see how who is invested in
21:19
making people think it's great, and you're like.
21:24
Speaker 2
And this one like going back to our point of
21:26
like the media only wakes up that things are fucked
21:29
up when the stock market starts to crumble. The stock
21:33
market is so heavily leveraged on ai shit right now
21:37
because it's like all these massive tech companies that haven't
21:40
been able to come up with their next innovation, and
21:43
so they're like, this is that's where all of this
21:46
hype and energy comes from. Is like we get to
21:48
keep like getting people more and more excited about some
21:52
future like growth. I know it's not good to be
21:55
making that hand gesture at that angle, but like future
21:58
guys that way, but it's it's buzzy now. It's like
22:04
it's a hip thing to do.
22:05
Speaker 3
See that. There was a guy who owned a construction company.
22:08
Did you see that clip where the dude did it
22:09
at a fucking like conservative meetup and then everyone's like
22:13
what the fuck and he's like, yo, I was just
22:16
emulating the fun Elon Musk. It was a joke.
22:19
Speaker 2
It was fun one, not not the Hitler one.
22:23
Speaker 8
One.
22:23
Speaker 3
That's like, what's sort of the logic. It was like
22:25
just just goof around, you know. It's like that that
22:27
was supposed to be taken like as an actual Just
22:29
because of doing a literal Nazi salute doesn't mean you
22:31
should take it literally as some kind of Nazi salute.
22:34
Speaker 2
Yeah.
22:35
Speaker 1
Really, it's really it's a moment for you guys to
22:39
hold yourself.
22:39
Speaker 2
Uh you know what I mean. I'm just saying, open
22:43
your eyes, man. Yeah. But yeah they are. They're like,
22:47
I don't think this one is going to fall apart
22:50
until it absolutely has to, at which point the stock
22:55
market is going to take just the hugest ship. Yeah.
22:58
Speaker 3
Well, I mean that's why Deep seek Ai was such
23:01
a huge shakeup, because they're like, bro, They're like, hold on, bro,
23:04
y'all ask this for hundreds of millions of dollars. Yeah,
23:08
to get this shit going. They just said they did.
23:10
This ship was seven million and then just cheated off
23:13
your open source What the look, but we need more,
23:18
We need the money for more processors to beat them.
23:21
And it's just that the fucking marry go around goes
23:23
round and round and round, and it's like, bro, you're
23:26
not making money, you're spending money, and no one's like
23:28
this ship is now. I cannot live day to day
23:32
without it.
23:33
Speaker 2
No, all the innovation that's happened, like positively from the
23:36
tech industry, or at least the vast majority of it,
23:39
has been like driven by open source and like being
23:41
able to like bring together a lot of minds, and
23:46
the current iteration of the tech industry is all about
23:49
siloing things off and protecting like investments essentially. And so yeah,
23:54
they're gonna be getting the shit kicked out of them
23:57
by other countries for the next I don't know, however,
24:01
many decades until they recognize that this is a major problem.
24:04
Speaker 1
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, what point will it be too late?
24:07
Our favorite humor is gallows humor, and there is no
24:10
whistle like a graveyard whistle.
24:12
Speaker 2
Right. I also I got what a graveyard whistle is, man.
24:26
Speaker 1
Holy ship, So uh, this is this is something also
24:29
that I think is very interesting for all of us
24:32
who are fans of language I love the corporate buzzwords
24:37
that are coming out now, and it's so easy to
24:40
make your own and just say it confidently with a
24:43
straight face, and people will be like, like, let's uh,
24:48
let's smack this with the folk book or whatever. Yeah, see,
24:54
so it will go yeah, yeah that makes sense.
24:56
Speaker 3
Look, we're just gonna take this code, just gonna beat
24:58
it with a sack of oranges. You know what I mean?
25:02
Speaker 2
Get me?
25:03
Speaker 3
Yeah, they are.
25:04
Speaker 2
They frequently are like kind of violent. Yeah. Yeah, Like
25:09
how we have a spear because we like to you know,
25:13
we're the part that actually goes into the enemy's mid
25:17
section and dis disembowls them.
25:21
Speaker 3
What my division does serted barbs. So when you pull
25:25
it out for another strike, you then evisceraate them.
25:28
Speaker 1
Yeah, you guys crushed that.
25:30
Speaker 3
Yeah, so what we do? We just talked. We just
25:32
talked about medieval weapons all the time. Off, Uh, let's
25:37
take a quick break. We're running out of time.
25:39
Speaker 2
We got to come back and check out storid Wise,
25:42
I don't see how close this fucking thing is to us.
25:44
I haven't heard from the New York Times in fucking weeks.
25:47
We'll be right back.
25:59
Speaker 3
And we're back.
26:00
Speaker 2
We're back, and it is time for stroid.
26:07
Speaker 3
What we got shot? Okay, so last time we checked in,
26:12
we were around three point one percent. That was three
26:15
point one let's take it a guarantee, bro, Bro, that's again,
26:20
like we said last time, don't look at that as
26:21
a ninety seven percent chance it doesn't hit. Look at
26:25
that is a three percent chance that we're all gonna die.
26:29
Just dig into that three luxuriate in theol. Right, I'm
26:33
guessing were he starts smoking exactly exact somebody called fat Joe,
26:39
because I'm guessing the percentage now is all the way up. Okay,
26:43
let me look right now, according to the SUPERU telescopes data,
26:47
zero point zero zero four percent.
26:50
Speaker 2
Fuck alright, so it's not that's just like a telescope
26:54
on someone's super That's just like that telescope's opinion opinion.
26:59
Speaker 3
Man, fun, So it's down to it presents no risk anymore.
27:06
Oh but hold on, there's a chance you can hit
27:09
the moon.
27:09
Speaker 2
It can hit the mo, but one almost sounds even
27:13
more fun. Someone take the moon down a peg, you
27:16
know what I mean. It's kind of an asshole as
27:19
far as planets and.
27:20
Speaker 3
Planetary respect of your cycle get out of here, you
27:23
lunar freak. But apparently that could also go down to zero.
27:27
So all right, back to work everyone, straight, watch over,
27:30
no more.
27:31
Speaker 2
See here bo. That's it. Also my underrated this week
27:35
was wind. And you know, the moon gets a lot
27:37
of the credit for the movement of the ocean. It's
27:40
all wind, it's all It's basically all wind, like the tides,
27:43
yes are the moon, but waves are all wind.
27:45
Speaker 1
Okay, is this like a tease for your new hit
27:50
piece on the moon.
27:51
Speaker 2
Like, yeah, yeah, I'm not a fan, not a fan many.
27:56
Speaker 3
Yeah, new moon called okay, lunar it's not great. It's
28:02
just Jack reading a bunch of moon facts and you
28:05
believe that. Yeah, but yeah, I don't know. This is
28:08
funny to see, like how it's we were all reading
28:12
about the earth sitting, earth destroying or city destroying asteris
28:17
that might hit and then fucking crickets And then I
28:21
look and then I'm like, oh right, it's because they didn't.
28:24
The media is not there to reinforce our feelings. No, no, no, no,
28:28
it's all just clickbait. Now, yeah, it's all clickbait. They
28:32
might have written about it, but that's just like not
28:34
the way, are you attention? Ecosystem works anymore? Well?
28:40
Speaker 2
Also, fear point, though.
28:43
Speaker 1
We can't stop anything, right, we like, human civilization doesn't
28:49
have the technology currently to do anything other than observe
28:54
and ship moment, we.
28:56
Speaker 2
Can stop it.
28:56
Speaker 1
Yeah, yeah, sure, like you two guys Miles.
29:02
Speaker 2
And yeah, if we just consulted the right star charts,
29:05
we would have actually been good.
29:07
Speaker 3
I get so high. I hijack a Blue Origin spaceship
29:10
at knife point, and I fucking handle it. Okay, that's
29:14
how That's how I pitched it to NASA, and they
29:17
were like, no, Nasa.
29:18
Speaker 2
NASA straight up went up there on the dart mission
29:21
landed on an asteroid impact.
29:24
Speaker 3
They didn't land. That's armageddon. I think they landed.
29:27
Speaker 2
So they landed with Bruce will Miles. Okay, so Miles
29:32
hasn't done the research that I have, so they put
29:35
together they put together a team of oil drillers. Okay, landed.
29:43
I totally was thinking of armageddon. I watched the feed,
29:46
I watched the fucking feet of the dart mission and still,
29:51
uh my brain, my memory got overtaken by armageddon. But anyways,
29:56
they they were able to steer. Was it a com
30:00
are An asteroid. An asteroid asteroid like like slightly off
30:05
its course early enough in advance. And the thing that
30:09
they knocked off its path was bigger than the one.
30:14
This one. So, by the way, this wasn't even an
30:16
Earth destroyer. This is a city destroyer. It wasn't ship, Okay, wasn't.
30:21
Speaker 3
I'll put me, just put me in fucking ground zero.
30:24
Brought gobble that ship up up there.
30:33
Speaker 2
It's got a phone book big enough to hit the asteroid, won't.
30:38
Speaker 3
They won't even know what happened. Bagg of oranges and
30:42
phone book. Bro.
30:43
Speaker 2
We don't do it at night when it's asleep, you know,
30:46
sneak up on it. Lash point though, true story before
30:51
we get the emails. The United States during the Cold
30:54
War did have a plan to attempt to detonate nuclear
30:58
weapons on the Moon just you know, fuck around, figure
31:01
out Project A one one nine. They were so horny
31:06
to detonate nuclear weapons fucking everywhere. Yeah, they're all over,
31:11
like Greenland, the Arctic.
31:14
Speaker 3
They were so fun you have as a kid, like
31:17
when you bring like an empty coke can into a
31:19
pool and you're like duool water here to pour it out?
31:25
Speaker 7
Now?
31:28
Speaker 2
Photo Yeah, photos of the like Las Vegas beauty contests
31:34
that are happening. That's like miss nuclear bomb and there's
31:38
like a mushroom cloud in the background. Like there's just
31:41
some incredible stupid.
31:43
Speaker 3
Atomic architecture and like home goods back then, that whole
31:46
like interior design style that was built out of our
31:49
love of the fucking vaporizing weapon, the atomic bomb.
31:55
Speaker 2
Hey, speaking of historical stupidity that we should be taking
32:00
r Q from. Uh, let's talk about our pitch for
32:04
a return to the mundane that we're already starting to
32:09
see the early signs of. I was talking about this
32:13
podcast Ben. Have you heard the Blind Boy podcast? I
32:17
have not. He's this Irish artist. He was in the
32:21
rap group the Rubber Bandits, and he just has a
32:25
really cool kind of like it's like half poetry, half him,
32:31
just like talking sometimes really great interviews with Irish people.
32:34
But he interviewed this guy who goes around Ireland like
32:37
lifting rocks for like just the and these rocks, these
32:41
rocks are like famous. They're like, oh, that's the you know,
32:45
Blarney Stoner. You know it's not, but like they're famous
32:48
rocks from an era when this was like a essentially
32:51
a sporting event. The local strong man comes to town
32:56
and tries to lift your like famous.
32:58
Speaker 3
Rock and these are big ass rocks, big ass rocks.
33:01
Speaker 2
Yes, yes, you were getting ideas there for a second,
33:06
because I can lift I can. Yeah, No, big ass
33:12
rocks which are like have weird centers of gravity, so
33:15
you have to like have like their strategy involved. Anyway, Like,
33:19
after listening to them talk about lifting rocks for an
33:22
hour and a half, I was like, this is the
33:25
future of entertainment. I really feel like we need to
33:29
get bring back Mundanity.
33:32
Speaker 3
Yeah, yeah, that's not the failed hybrid band that was.
33:36
Olivia Munn was the lead singer of Danity Kine, not
33:39
that Miley.
33:40
Speaker 2
You wrote that in the dock. I went and googled.
33:44
I didn't get it because sucks.
33:47
Speaker 3
The other one.
33:47
Speaker 2
So I went and googled Olivia Munn's singer and they
33:51
were like, she's been in like some music videos. I guess.
33:55
Speaker 3
But guess what. My Wisconsin football fans love this. Remember
33:59
the celebrity power couple of Olivia Munn and Ron Dane
34:02
also known as Mundane. Alright, alright again timely reference that
34:08
man is forty six years old now. But anyway, yeah,
34:12
finger on the pulse folks, Yeah, the finger on the
34:15
pulse of a corpse that expired twenty years ago. But yeah,
34:20
so the latest one. This is the reason why I
34:21
brought it up because Jack, when you brought that up,
34:23
I was like, yeah, no, we are due for mundanity again.
34:26
Is this like trend? Now? That is quote the droppings
34:29
drop stuff on your foot challenge? Uh now, now I
34:34
just seemed to basically what people do is they're just
34:37
out here dropping ship on their feet and going, oh gee, hey.
34:40
Speaker 2
Ben, real quick fix your face when Miles was talking
34:44
about the new national pastime.
34:46
Speaker 3
But say that you're right, You're right, you better like
34:50
you better like downtown Vegas. Motherfucker.
34:53
Speaker 1
When I bring this up, I want to see you
34:58
guys are right, and I I need to just move
35:01
with the times I need for the time. You know,
35:03
I need to stop catching ship right before it drops
35:06
on my feet. That's yeah.
35:12
Speaker 2
Yeah.
35:12
Speaker 1
Otherwise, like that's why I look like a cop because
35:15
I keep catching ship before it.
35:18
Speaker 3
Or moving your foot out the way like a coward.
35:20
Speaker 2
Uh, this is you saw.
35:23
Speaker 3
So this challenge isn't that dumb though, because what happens
35:26
is a person drops something heavy on their foot. Then
35:29
after they yell aUI. They then rate the pain on
35:33
a scale of one to ten. So that's that's how
35:36
it's different. But yeah, you're right, that isn't that So
35:38
this one's not that dumb. You're right, No, no, no,
35:40
this is way better.
35:41
Speaker 2
It's like the thing before about the lifting the heavyweights,
35:44
but they've added like a sequel into They've added a
35:47
second act where you left heavyweight, then drop it on
35:50
your foot, and then even a third act wherein you
35:53
rate the pain.
35:54
Speaker 3
So this is from ITV news because I mean, predictably,
35:59
I think it seems like TikTok has pretty much censored
36:02
the hashtag because something about violating community guidelines around like
36:05
hurting yourself needlessly and promoting that kind of behavior or something.
36:08
But here's something from ITV news. Or they were showing
36:11
just kind of like some of the clips of people
36:13
that were just just drop his ship on the little
36:15
feat seas.
36:16
Speaker 2
And have you seen this trend?
36:20
Speaker 3
What all right?
36:21
Speaker 2
So that one looks fucking like nothing, That is nothing.
36:26
That guy's got weak feet.
36:28
Speaker 3
He I'm trying to I'm trying to gain how heavy
36:31
of how heavy bottomed of a boiling pot that was,
36:33
because if it's.
36:34
Speaker 2
Just just been pot. So he just dropped them a
36:37
pasta pot on his foot, and.
36:39
Speaker 3
Then this might he might be happening. Okay, let's go on,
36:42
Well it might be really bad for you.
36:44
Speaker 9
The video show.
36:45
Speaker 3
Okay, now, this dude's about to drop a fucking air fryer. Yes,
36:48
this I don't like. But watch how low he gets is.
36:51
Speaker 9
Dropping increasingly heavy objects on their feet like toasters and
36:57
brook Okay, he's hamming it up a little TV remote.
37:04
Speaker 2
Yeah that's all it was.
37:05
Speaker 3
Yeah, that was a TV remote.
37:07
Speaker 2
Come on.
37:07
Speaker 3
I've seen people start with like a tennis racket and
37:09
then like move their way up to like a full on,
37:11
like forty million artillery show.
37:13
Speaker 2
Yeah they have a fortyish jacket's Texas, Baby, you can
37:19
have world building. Yeah okay, you know right, just I'm
37:23
just seeing what else.
37:24
Speaker 9
Time of pain and disability and advice users to stay
37:27
well clear as it could damage the nerves, bones or
37:30
joints in your face.
37:31
Speaker 3
Okay, that's just like a pediatrist's opinion, man, opinion, man, Yeah,
37:36
I like that they had to go to a pediatrist
37:38
to be like this cool or what right?
37:41
Speaker 9
Right?
37:41
Speaker 3
Right? We're good here?
37:44
Speaker 2
Uh, could we look at the so I really liked this,
37:48
this one that I mentioned my last pitch from Mondanity
37:53
that is making cookies, making chocolate chip cookies with trash grabbers,
37:58
so you can't use your hands, you can only use
38:00
ash grabbers. And I just like the challenge of it,
38:05
the creativity, the messiness, and uh, they really seem to
38:10
be having fun.
38:11
Speaker 3
I think they also might be hammered.
38:13
Speaker 2
But like, are they are they high?
38:17
Speaker 3
Are they almost?
38:18
Speaker 2
Definitely?
38:19
Speaker 3
I don't know why are they on trout? We'll probably
38:21
won't be able to play the audio because of this
38:22
damn a team theme song. But anyway, here we go.
38:25
Speaker 2
You get the idea off of basically they're softening that butter.
38:28
I like that. It's a team effort. Yeah, totally, so
38:31
it's a team effort.
38:34
Speaker 3
Okay, this is totally like this is some drunk I'm
38:40
bored in my cabin type ship. Yeah, you're like, let's
38:44
make your game out of the objects that.
38:46
Speaker 2
Are haunting us in this up like summer camp, absolute
38:49
crippling boredom. Yeah, let's do anything. Let's event a new sport,
38:54
which is how we got basketball, by the way, so
38:57
just you know, couldn't James Nasmith was like, teaching a
39:02
bunch of children at a school and it was like
39:04
too cold outside to play any of the sports that existed,
39:08
and like, in order to get the kids to stop
39:10
like jacking off, he was like, let's let's create a
39:13
sport that you guys can play inside. Uh, and that
39:17
hence we have basketball.
39:19
Speaker 3
It is just so many and so stuff. Was just like,
39:21
just stop these people from jacking off. Eat this damn
39:28
cereal instead of freaking jack over there. Goddamn it.
39:33
Speaker 1
Someone right now is uh, someone right now is pitching
39:38
Daily's geist to kids to stop them right, like.
39:42
Speaker 3
To high schoolers. Yeah, just bad pitch.
39:45
Speaker 2
People the show they can't keep their hands off themselves.
39:48
Speaker 1
Yeah, I blame you guys sexual attention. Honestly I do too.
39:53
Speaker 3
Is my wife? I said, look, it is what it is, babe.
39:58
We got to eat people like what they like, you know.
40:05
Speaker 2
Check out also our videos on our YouTube channel where
40:08
we start doing physical challenges that required me to go
40:11
into the backyard with my ass up in the air
40:16
for sciences.
40:19
Speaker 3
Will leave me alone for.
40:20
Speaker 2
Once we have an ice cream cone filled with bird
40:26
seed in your ass.
40:27
Speaker 3
Maybe that's corns are a menace you're.
40:31
Speaker 1
Putting in the work though, thank you for your service man.
40:34
Speaker 3
Yeah. Yeah, you have to throw them at like that.
40:36
You were getting the bird seat everywhere.
40:37
Speaker 2
I uh I, So like, historically this has been a
40:44
thing that is like coming gone. There's flagpole sitting is
40:47
what I mentioned last time, and also phone booth stuffing
40:51
are two historical trends that totally died out. They were
40:56
apparently like huge briefly flagpole sitting in the twenties and thirties,
41:00
phone booth stuffing in the like fifties and early sixties.
41:04
And then people discovered having sex with each other in
41:07
the sixties, and we're like, oh, this is fucking way.
41:11
That's what they were trying to get out the whole time.
41:13
Is that right? Wait?
41:15
Speaker 3
So hell might just be a construct to keep me
41:18
in line. I got sutt down for some sex me.
41:23
Speaker 2
The phone booth stuff in Wikipedia page has an interesting
41:27
like run down there, like this was once referred to
41:30
as one of the all time great fads by the
41:32
Bridgeport Post shoot all time great fads, but it was
41:39
considered passe by nineteen fifty nine, and then they say
41:43
it was a kin in meteor meteoric rise and fall
41:47
to the earlier fads of flagpole, sitting goldfish, swallowing, panny raids,
41:53
what the fuck? And to the later fad of streaking.
41:57
Speaker 3
Okay, what is a is a penny? Is just somebody
42:01
stealing someone's underwear and being like.
42:03
Speaker 2
Isn't it from Yeah, like Revenge of the Nerds where
42:07
you just go in and steal people's underwear?
42:09
Speaker 3
Wow? Okay, great cool.
42:12
Speaker 2
I did not know streaking was in this category though,
42:15
I assume streaking has been a thing since forever.
42:19
Speaker 1
But apparently it's like right before clothing.
42:22
Speaker 2
Right, Yeah, yeah, apparently it's I mean there have been
42:26
like there were like religious sects called like Neo Adam
42:32
Adam mean or something like, because they're like, we're like
42:35
Adam Adam. Yeah, yeah, Neo Adamantium Adamites. They call themselves
42:40
Neo Adamites, and they were like, we're actually naked right
42:44
now because God. So that's why. Wow, that's a way
42:49
to tag base. Yeah, you like for everybody up there.
42:54
Speaker 3
Actually, that's what I'm hanging bread right now.
42:56
Speaker 2
That's right. But like the idea of like a solitaire
43:00
person just like interrupting a public event by running through
43:04
naked started in Carlton College. Shout out to my uncle
43:08
John who used to be a dean there in nineteen
43:12
seventy three. Like the first mention that anybody can find
43:15
is like the local Carlton newspaper being like, these kids
43:19
are out of control with their rise of class, spirit,
43:23
low grades, streaking, destruction, drinking, and the popularity of rock dances.
43:28
Speaker 1
God wait wait wait rock dances like rock like dancing.
43:33
Speaker 2
Rocks dance, Yeah, go into a dance but playing rock music.
43:37
Speaker 3
Instead of like a sock hop forfend.
43:40
Speaker 2
But I don't know, it's that's the one. Like there
43:44
may be a hope for one of these if you
43:46
can like get one of these mundane fads to really
43:51
take off, and like if it has that classic appeal
43:55
of streaking, you could be a legend. You could create
43:58
something that's permanent. There's still streakers to this day.
44:01
Speaker 3
There's still streakers for sure, Like it just happens, like
44:04
it's still honored in the UK and like New Zealand Australia,
44:07
I feel like I still see them going hard on
44:09
the streaking, and I'm like, yeah.
44:11
Speaker 1
I wonder if there's like a streaking because there is
44:13
a competition for everything, right, so I wonder if there's
44:16
like an international streaker league.
44:19
Speaker 2
You know, you have to disrupt the the biggest public
44:27
event with the most glorious streak and like stay uncaught
44:31
for the longest. Yeah, I guess with the.
44:33
Speaker 3
I feel like those would be like the criteria.
44:37
Speaker 1
I'm going to say, there's a real opportunity for the
44:40
current Catholic pope to just go out like the legend,
44:43
you know, like if he if he just like pulls
44:46
a streak and the bishops are chasing, but.
44:49
Speaker 2
He keeps his hat on. The hat yeah, yeah, yeah,
44:52
he's still got a hat and the shoes. Yeah, for sure,
44:55
he finally puts on the old popes Like did you
44:58
ever see the old pope's shoes like that? This new
45:01
pope is like the one who's like, I want to
45:02
be just like the beggars, except with like much nicer. Sure,
45:06
but uh, you know, I don't want all the fancy stuff.
45:09
The pope before, the one who was like a Nazi youth,
45:12
was so fancy, Like some of the shoes that he
45:16
wore like crazy.
45:19
Speaker 3
He's red red shoes, Yes, the red shoes, the red bottoms,
45:25
the red bottoms.
45:25
Speaker 2
Yeah, okay, Cardi, that's what she's talking about.
45:29
Speaker 1
Yeah, she's severely Catholic apparently.
45:31
Speaker 3
Yeah, they thought it was giving it up to Papa.
45:35
Speaker 2
Yeah, you eat it, Papa. Let's take a quick break
45:38
and we'll come back and talk about our favorite romantic
45:43
Mark Socker Nerd and we're back. We're back, And yeah
45:59
he might. He used to be narcsucker Nerd, I think
46:02
on this show, but now he's a man a sphere
46:06
Sokka Nerd is like his new energy. He's different.
46:12
Speaker 1
He's got you know, he's got his uh he's got
46:14
his laps.
46:15
Speaker 2
You know, he's been doing.
46:16
Speaker 1
Some lifts, so he's got he's got the broccoli hair.
46:19
He's got an amulet, so you know, he went.
46:21
Speaker 3
Through an ambulet. You know, he went on that nine.
46:27
Speaker 2
Thousand dollars watch. But uh so there's this clip that's
46:31
going viral of Mark commemorating his wife's fortieth birthday by
46:38
doing something that I feel like I'm the terminator at
46:43
the end of T two, being lowered into the pit
46:46
because I'm saying to gen Z, I now know why
46:50
you use the word cringe.
46:52
Speaker 3
I now understand, and then give the thumbs up, Yeah,
46:57
Gi Gi giving the thumbs down as a lowered into
47:00
the fiery pit.
47:02
Speaker 2
Yeah, it's it's cringe. It is a cringe to be
47:06
doing this.
47:06
Speaker 3
If you're doing oh yeah, big ups.
47:12
Speaker 1
Wait so wait wait wait, okay, birthday. I see this.
47:17
Speaker 3
I try you heard about this.
47:20
Speaker 1
I try not to keep up too much with our
47:23
buddy Mark.
47:24
Speaker 3
What yeah, dude, he's gonna like Ben's problem. He's gonna
47:28
like destroy the world. Dude, you should probably keep your
47:31
eye on this guy. But anyway, this is his the
47:34
caption for this video that he posted, Your wife only
47:37
turns forty one. Shout out to Benson Boone for the
47:40
jumpsuit and new single. And the way we go to
47:44
this guy going look at this, look at this shan
47:47
even before we start this video, this setup is my
47:50
goodness to be an oligarch. But here we go. This
47:53
is him performing for a captive audience.
48:00
Speaker 2
Who nothing underneath.
48:02
Speaker 1
Whoa wow.
48:07
Speaker 3
He jumps? Whoa Oh yeah, dude, get it in Mark Wow.
48:14
Yeah yeah. So that is horrifying to my core, this
48:18
whole of it. Also, first this thing that I was
48:21
really clocking his footwear.
48:23
Speaker 2
Thank you.
48:24
Speaker 3
I think my man is wearing black Air Force ones
48:29
he needed.
48:31
Speaker 2
He is wearing the same shoes. So priests and referees
48:36
are the only people that wear those shoes size Mark Zuckerberg.
48:39
Speaker 3
Yeah, or like or the football coach at your junior
48:42
high who had to retire, but he still needs some
48:44
more hours before he can go on retirement, so they
48:46
give him one science class to teach and then he's
48:49
going to run the clock in those exactly exactly like
48:52
Benson Boone did it.
48:53
Speaker 2
So this is just recreating like a viral moment from
48:56
the Grammys this year where Benzon Boone had a tuxio
49:00
on and then like had this outfit on it and
49:02
then did a flip off of a Yeah, did multiple backflips. Yeah,
49:07
this is this is how I learned who Benson Boone was.
49:11
By the way, this clip so great marketing for him.
49:15
Speaker 1
Also also we have to say it you know again
49:18
twenty twenty five notes. If you want to have a
49:21
breakaway outfit, though, you get a bigger advantage when you
49:25
break it away yourself.
49:26
Speaker 3
Yeah it's but in true oligarch fashion, you're like, I
49:30
don't even do the labor of tearing off my own
49:32
fake tuxedo. Come on now, Wade slaves hook it up.
49:37
Speaker 2
And then this m Boone did it with people with
49:41
women pulling the two sides off of him. I think
49:44
Nicki Coyser might have been one of them. And it
49:47
looked cool when he did it with Mark Zuckerberry, it
49:50
looked like awkward, like yeah, the first time he had
49:53
been undressed by somebody else.
49:55
Speaker 3
Since He's like, look, I'm so sorry that we got
49:57
rid of our whole moderation team, but I've got a
50:00
better offer for you. Would you like to peel off
50:03
half of my tuxedo jacket at my wife's fortieth birthday?
50:05
I'll do myself the weirday, same pay about it.
50:10
Speaker 1
That's the thing though, It's like recreating a moment right
50:15
that existed on its own and then trying to say also.
50:20
Speaker 2
Me, you know what I mean?
50:22
Speaker 3
Yeah, well I think then it shows sort of how
50:24
a billionaire even looks at that kind of thing, where
50:26
it's like, okay, to do the thing that everyone was
50:29
so into, I just have to wear a blue jumpsuit
50:32
and jump off a thing and that's it.
50:34
Speaker 2
And also he had to sing, which, notably you can't
50:38
really find a version of this where with the original audio. Yeah,
50:42
it's like trying to find a fucking wailing into that microphone.
50:47
And I'm sure the actual audio in the.
50:50
Speaker 3
Room like a post steroids post steroids shirtless a rod pick.
50:54
You're not gonna find it. It's not happening. You're not
50:58
gonna find it. Too many stakeholders to keep that. I
51:01
love though, too All the fucking comments are either like
51:05
it's a mixture of like oh my god, I love it,
51:07
or like fuck you asshole, or other ones being like
51:11
damn you really got the like the filters on heavy
51:13
for these comments. One the first one that I'm seeing
51:16
is Hay's up, why you dick riding Trump and his administration?
51:19
As well as another one you have no talent and
51:22
she knows you cheated on her. We all do. Whoa,
51:25
they were tolerable when you were quiet. Maga and broccoli
51:28
hair got you tripping?
51:31
Speaker 2
Well.
51:32
Speaker 1
Also, happy birthday to keep it positive to your wife.
51:36
Speaker 10
Yeah for a second, we for we lost the reason
51:39
for the season was his wife, and now we're all
51:42
talking about his fuckery and his you know, just terrible
51:46
outfits and lack of talent wife.
51:48
Speaker 2
Who was shown in the video for a split second. Yeah,
51:52
for like, no one over embarrassment the amount of time
51:54
that he was Yeah, yeah, that would be funny if
51:58
you stayed on it. Longer you realize she's at that part.
52:02
Speaker 3
Actually, let me bring that part up again, because it
52:05
does feel like completely out of context. You could be like,
52:09
it almost feels like someone told her another plane hit
52:11
the second tower. Yeah, yeah, play it back. She She's like,
52:15
what happened? I'm wailing? Yeah, no, scream of losing a
52:24
loved one.
52:27
Speaker 1
I actually, now I want to see this. This is
52:29
fucking evil. But you guys, I think we're all we're
52:33
all pretty punchy right now at the end of history,
52:36
so I kind of want to see this video with
52:39
audio of like nine to eleven reports for sure.
52:42
Speaker 2
Yeah, you know he look, yeah, I mean all anybody
52:45
needs to do is just like put the actual audio
52:48
over it, or just like recreate what the actual audio
52:51
actually sounds like with the audio over her being.
52:54
Speaker 3
Like, no, oh my gosh, this is another one.
52:59
Speaker 2
But jump suits are such a vibe. I mean, jumpsits
53:04
are a vibe like I don't know I did, but
53:07
I feel like an affable dufe is doing something impressive
53:10
for their wife that's embarrassing. Is I usually like it
53:15
when the person is not a fucking oligarch who's in
53:19
the process of just ruining countless lives right.
53:23
Speaker 1
Yeah, yeah, like goofy and daring is great and obviously
53:27
no offense to us, but uh, we've succeeded doing that
53:31
kind of stuff, right, goofy and endearing.
53:33
Speaker 2
I think we did that. Well, don't know what you're
53:35
talking about on the stud, but go ahead.
53:37
Speaker 3
I'm the coolest motherfucker my mom ever met. She told
53:39
me last night, and she was pat in my back
53:42
so I could fall asleep because I was crying so bad.
53:44
What go on? Because I'll call it right now, bro.
53:50
If you don't believe me, I believe you. I believe
53:53
all right, I'm sorry going on. No affable goofy thing, though,
54:00
too really counts on you having a certain amount of
54:03
goodwill with people that they go sure, oh great, right
54:06
when you're starting a negative three trillion on some ship
54:10
the first get this ship out in my fun. Don't
54:12
give a fuck how many backflips you tried. The only
54:15
way this would people would have been cheering. It is
54:17
like if he didn't like knocked himself out because he
54:19
biff did a backflip, landed directly on his back, oh
54:22
my god, landed on the crown of his head.
54:25
Speaker 1
You guys should start a fad, since clearly he's gonna
54:28
he's gonna try to follow or emulate stuff that appears
54:33
to make.
54:33
Speaker 2
Him seem cool. Sex symbols do.
54:36
Speaker 1
Right, right, right right, So what's what's like the what's
54:40
the more dangerous version of dropping ship on your foot?
54:43
And how could you convince him?
54:45
Speaker 3
Dude? The hashtag Benson boone TBI backflip challenge Dude, you
54:50

sure why. I know it sounds like I'm just freestyling
56:23
three different words and.
56:26
Speaker 3
I didn't know that. I didn't know you were pulling
56:28
from real life when you reference to drill rap.

Speaker 2
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah so uh oh.
56:34

I mean, technically, if I'm gonna get pedantic about the beat.
57:16
Speaker 1
No, you're right, you're right, you're right, But let's make
57:19
it about your opinions on music.
57:20
Speaker 3
Yeah, I mean no, there's opinions and there's facts, Ben,
