Speaker 1: I'm not good. Like that scene where the when like
Speaker 1: she comes into their hotel room, like obviously when I
Speaker 1: was saying light three way part yea like her magic team,
Speaker 1: but we were just like looking at each other. We're like,
Speaker 1: they're like yo, they're they're somehow pulling off this like
Speaker 1: wild version of like young adult horniness that I don't know,
Speaker 1: Like it was captured in a way that I had
Speaker 1: not I had not previously seen.
Speaker 2: So yeah, their Dynamico Friends Challengers good. I would say, like,
Speaker 2: I like overall like it.
Speaker 1: It didn't.
Speaker 2: I wasn't like sitting there like, damn, this is one
Speaker 2: of my favorite movies, but it sticks with you and
Speaker 2: like the music is so dope. And my wife did
Speaker 2: you know? I had to tell her at the beginning,
Speaker 2: you know, take a page out of my boy zazz Is.
Speaker 2: I was like, look, if we're gonna do this, I
Speaker 2: said this loud to everyone in the theater. I said,
Speaker 2: if we're gonna do everybody, we're not. We're just staring
Speaker 2: straight ahead at the screen. We're not looking at each other,
Speaker 2: and you're not looking at my direction, even if I'm
Speaker 2: making some weird sounds.
Speaker 1: The thing though, that was kind of wild though too
Speaker 1: is like it sort of like what that f one
Speaker 1: Netflix show did for formula one. I feel like this
Speaker 1: could do like it helped tennis be like sort of
Speaker 1: capture the intensity of tennis in a way that didn't
Speaker 1: feel like, Hello, Buffy, let's go for a round tennis,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? It felt like a little
Speaker 1: bit more like Yo, this shit is fucking wild.
Speaker 2: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this week trend edition of.
Speaker 1: It's a production of My Heart Radio. I am Jack.
Speaker 1: That is miles over there, yeah over here.
Speaker 2: That's see episode where we tell you what was trying
Speaker 2: to go for the weekend, what's trending this morning? First
Speaker 2: we tell you what's trending in our hearts. We get
Speaker 2: to know you a little bit better by doing our
Speaker 2: own little underrated overrated? So should we kick it off? Underrated?
Speaker 1: I got a bit of a grab bag.
Speaker 2: Grabag garbage as the French don't call it. So first,
Speaker 2: my kid went to a fire station field trip and
Speaker 2: came home talking about the power scissors that they have there,
Speaker 2: and I got to be like, I got to be like,
Speaker 2: I know, you think that name power scissors is pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Do you want to know what that product?
Speaker 1: Is actually really your kid after a.
Speaker 2: Fight called the Jaws of Life, and we just both
Speaker 2: kind of sat there in odd silence, like they absolutely
Speaker 2: did not have to go that hard on that name. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they did, and you know, the world is a more
Speaker 2: poetic place because of it.
Speaker 1: They did. They like demo it in front of the kids.
Speaker 2: Now, they just like showed them and explained it, and
Speaker 2: they also showed them that he was like, they have
Speaker 2: a new jigsaw for cutting through the roof of a
Speaker 2: burning building.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Is there been a horror movie where someone gets cut
Speaker 2: in half by the jaws of Life? I feel like
Speaker 2: Jaws of Life would be a good Jason kill.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know, I mean, are there technically
Speaker 1: blades on it? Like I guess there's a blade attached
Speaker 1: because other parts it's like it goes in and just
Speaker 1: separates so it can kind of open up a roof.
Speaker 2: So yeah, there's multiple products that are like hydraulic. There's
Speaker 2: hydraulic spreaders, there's hydraulic punchers, and then there's the hydraulic scissors.
Speaker 1: So that's all underneath the umbrella of Jaws of Life. Basically,
Speaker 1: these hydraulic tools. People.
Speaker 2: The guy who coined the phrase jaws of life, like
Speaker 2: has one that's like an all in one Swiss army
Speaker 2: knife of.
Speaker 1: Jaws of life. But you take the good, you take
Speaker 1: the bad, you take the bolt, and then you have the.
Speaker 2: Jaws of life, the jaws of life. I wish that
Speaker 2: had like made that a consumer product, like trying to
Speaker 2: everybody needs some jaws of life and they're back in
Speaker 2: the trunk of their car. You need a jack in
Speaker 2: case you have a flat tire and come.
Speaker 1: On the hit show that premiered in nineteen seventy nine.
Speaker 3: The.
Speaker 2: But Yeah, I don't know there, Like I couldn't. I
Speaker 2: tried to dig into like who named it, and it
Speaker 2: was like one of the innovators, the guy who like
Speaker 2: has the all in one thing. He named it years
Speaker 2: after it was first invented for like race cars, which
Speaker 2: makes sense because like race cars is like a spectator
Speaker 2: sport where like thousands of people had to sit around
Speaker 2: and watch someone watch them fail to cut someone out
Speaker 2: of a burning.
Speaker 1: Car, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the first yeah, so George Hurst was the
Speaker 2: first guy, and then the guy who came up with
Speaker 2: it was someone like ten years later who was working
Speaker 2: working with it.
Speaker 1: But Mike Rick, Mike brick, George Hurst brick, right, Mike
Speaker 1: Brick bricks.
Speaker 2: But I don't know, it's just there's something that sings
Speaker 2: in a man's soul when watching a product that can
Speaker 2: cut the entire top of a car off in two minutes,
Speaker 2: like a fucking can opener. And they were just like,
Speaker 2: we're going we're going big with the title of this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, honestly, shower scissors. Power scissors is good. That got
Speaker 1: a reaction out of me too, to be honest. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like power scissors.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want to name your band that you
Speaker 2: have to pay my six year old residuals.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, that is a pretty that would be like
Speaker 1: a pretty dope like punk band. Yeah yeah, yeah, like
Speaker 1: all female punk band or something.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: My other was just the original Shrek. Like, watched the
Speaker 2: Original Shrek with my family and a friend this weekend,
Speaker 2: and there's just like some good jokes and solids. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like really, like there's one joke. I'm not gonna sit
Speaker 2: here and like describe Shrek jokes to you or like,
Speaker 2: but like the one with Princess Fiona singing with the
Speaker 2: bird like snow white and then the bird explodes and
Speaker 2: she like there there's eggs in the nest, you know.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, just I mean, I vision no, I actually,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know what it's.
Speaker 2: It's just a solid joke that just destroyed with ages
Speaker 2: six to forty three in the room. And I think
Speaker 2: I just associated that movie with smash Mouth, like yeah that,
Speaker 2: like the whole thing is just and every time they're
Speaker 2: cut to a new scene, I would be like some
Speaker 2: but and yeah, it was really annoying my kids.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, no, no, no, that's the next one.
Speaker 2: Oh but all right, yeah there and then so we
Speaker 2: started trek to last night and uh sucked ship. Yeah terrible,
Speaker 2: it's really not good. Yeah, well, well we'll get to it.
Speaker 2: But I got yeah, all right, But Miles, what is
Speaker 2: something you think is underrated?
Speaker 1: Underrated? After exchanging messages with a lot of listeners and
Speaker 1: talking about what's happening in Gaza, I just think it's
Speaker 1: the myriad of ways to help the people of Gaza
Speaker 1: is actually quite underrated. And I know, you know, while
Speaker 1: we talk a lot on the show about sort of
Speaker 1: you know, trying to end the military hostilities and that
Speaker 1: being key, there are still you know, obviously, the people
Speaker 1: are in need of medications you know, medical supplies, all
Speaker 1: these other things, and I just wanted to take the
Speaker 1: time to share some of these resources for people that
Speaker 1: want to help, because they're obviously like many large aid
Speaker 1: organizations that are doing good work and helping people, but
Speaker 1: there's also smaller operations that are trying to just amplify
Speaker 1: the voices of like Palestinian families and their specific requests
Speaker 1: for aid. Like right, you know, when the RAFA crossing
Speaker 1: was a little functioning a little bit you know better
Speaker 1: at all, you know, there were people obviously raising money
Speaker 1: to cross through, and they would they would have to
Speaker 1: be paying like exorbitant amounts like you know, like five
Speaker 1: to ten thousand per adult, twenty five hundred per child,
Speaker 1: and can take one piece of luggage just to get
Speaker 1: out of Gaza, and you know, while and they're like
Speaker 1: a lot of these groups are tapped into a lot
Speaker 1: of these like familial networks. There are many Palestinians in
Speaker 1: America who are you know, just engaging their own networks
Speaker 1: to find and amplify these voices of people that are
Speaker 1: in need. And a lot of these you know, some
Speaker 1: of these campaign it's really fucking hard. They're like run
Speaker 1: by fucking kids, man like they they are their own
Speaker 1: like fight last financial recourse to get out of this situation.
Speaker 1: So I'm just well, we're gonna link to some different
Speaker 1: organizations in the footnotes just so you know, that way
Speaker 1: you can actually you can see like there are like
Speaker 1: all these different families that need have all kinds of
Speaker 1: specific needs. Are also organizations that are focused on like
Speaker 1: you know, perinatal care and things like that, because obviously
Speaker 1: with you know the amount of small children that are there,
Speaker 1: babies and things like that, they also have very specific
Speaker 1: medical needs too outside of just food, shelter and things
Speaker 1: like that. So, uh, just gonna list those resources because
Speaker 1: I know obviously a lot of the news right now
Speaker 1: is about the ICC and they're looking to issue warrants
Speaker 1: for Israeli leaders and leaders of Hamas, and you know
Speaker 1: there's just the obviously the humanitarian situation is not improving.
Speaker 1: So I figured it'd be good good time just to
Speaker 1: connect people with additional resources so you can help people
Speaker 1: in a very direct way, because yeah, it's something that's
Speaker 1: very needed, and I know there are many people who
Speaker 1: are feeling like they want to do something more aside
Speaker 1: from advocating for ceasefire and things like that, so we
Speaker 1: will have those in the footnotes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, we we've covered the news for seven
Speaker 2: going on eight years on this show, and the one
Speaker 2: kind of recurring theme that always makes me feel like
Speaker 2: slightly better and more optimistic is just how people on
Speaker 2: a person a person basis respond to disaster and tragedy
Speaker 2: and just impossible situations. And like that's the thing you
Speaker 2: see over and over again, like going back through history
Speaker 2: and just people's ability to you know, use their networks
Speaker 2: of friends and families and community.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it's one thing. Yeah, the Red Cross or
Speaker 1: other organizations are like, you know, barely do like the
Speaker 1: real work that helps people on the ground. But yeah,
Speaker 1: like to your point, when it's when it's really connecting
Speaker 1: with people directly, it has such a different effect. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's just like something naturally when it's a a
Speaker 2: person a person basically, like you hear this from people
Speaker 2: who are like have uh you know in the wildfires,
Speaker 2: we can't we ran into it, and just a bunch
Speaker 2: of stories where like you know, communities break down all.
Speaker 1: Of the laws.
Speaker 2: You know, in movies when this happens, it turns into
Speaker 2: a lawless society, and in reality, when it happens everybody
Speaker 2: kind of like works together.
Speaker 1: And yeah, and not only that, I mean like it's
Speaker 1: a tremendous morale boost for the people there to really
Speaker 1: understand that there are people outside of those borders that
Speaker 1: are focused on their well being and want to help,
Speaker 1: because I mean even like, I mean, I got so
Speaker 1: emotional just looking at the reaction from some of the
Speaker 1: people in Gaza when all the student encampments went up,
Speaker 1: the belief that they are feeling because they could see that,
Speaker 1: you know, people were rallying behind them. So anyway, this
Speaker 1: is just a very just a good opportunity again to
Speaker 1: remind people that there are these resources out there that
Speaker 1: can that can help tremendously and do a lot of good.
Speaker 2: Well, uh, great, underrated Miles And for my overrated, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna take it back to Shrek.
Speaker 1: Definitely keep it within the spirit of the show.
Speaker 2: Obviously, yes, obviously got to go back to Shrek on
Speaker 2: this one. But for my overrated, I guess just the
Speaker 2: animation in the original Trek and Toy story, Like, I
Speaker 2: don't know, have you got back and watched the original
Speaker 2: Toy story? Yeah, origin yo, it looks like did you
Speaker 2: watch Jerry Duty The TV show.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, I was gonna be like the poly Shore movie. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: did you and low Bros. The Army.
Speaker 2: Now it's just my brain's malfunctioning. No, like the jury
Speaker 2: Duty jokey, like the defense attorney, Like does that re
Speaker 2: enact that video that looks like a glitching video game?
Speaker 1: Like I kept feeling like.
Speaker 2: Oh shit, like it's just the human faces.
Speaker 1: They were not up to human faces.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and so it with Trek, it's just wild because
Speaker 2: like Princess Fiona, Cameron Diaz's character is like a main character.
Speaker 2: She's all over the place and she just looks crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 2: just such a wild I don't know. It's like why
Speaker 2: did my kids were like why does she look like that?
Speaker 2: With toy story, it's like Sid is the human that
Speaker 2: you see the most, and Sid looks truly just like
Speaker 2: gont Doll. Yeah, a haunted dog exactly. But I don't know,
Speaker 2: And it made me wonder like did they put extra
Speaker 2: effort into the writing because they realized.
Speaker 1: It looked it looked so bad?
Speaker 2: Because then by the time Shrek two comes around, they've
Speaker 2: like kind of figured it out and it look like
Speaker 2: orders of magnitude better than the first one. But like
Speaker 2: the jokes are terrible, right. I don't know if it's
Speaker 2: because like Mike Myers is like falling off at that
Speaker 2: point or what it is, but oh my.
Speaker 1: God, yeah, I mean it was just such a not
Speaker 1: not that the bar was low, it's just an emerging
Speaker 1: technology form of animation. And at the time we're like,
Speaker 1: this shit is fucking amazactly, and then when you progress
Speaker 1: along with it, you never you know, it's like so
Speaker 1: many movies. You look back at the effects, you're like, what,
Speaker 1: I used to think this shit was cool? Right, Although
Speaker 1: that's why I give it up to the first Jurassic
Speaker 1: Park being out in nineteen ninety three. I mean, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: there are parts obviously like.
Speaker 2: Seven years after the original Jurassic Park, and it looks
Speaker 2: like shit.
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know.
Speaker 2: But anyways, also U phones for people with add I
Speaker 2: went to check the weather today when getting my kids
Speaker 2: ready for school, Like you know, I have to pick
Speaker 2: out their outfits and figure out who they wear shorts
Speaker 2: or pants, and like five minutes later, I'm just sitting
Speaker 2: in their closet watching a video of like people getting
Speaker 2: swept away by a flash flood. Because that's what's on
Speaker 2: the homepage of like the Weather Channel app.
Speaker 1: Why are you using the Weather Channel app? Because it
Speaker 1: now I'm like, wait, hold on bro, all right, yeah,
Speaker 1: so like it used to be.
Speaker 2: I I was like, it has more information than the
Speaker 2: regular weather app and so and then it kept the
Speaker 2: regular weather app kept popping up whenever I would do it,
Speaker 2: so I deleted it from my phone and now I
Speaker 2: don't know, I just need to go back to that one,
Speaker 2: because yeah, the weather the weather.
Speaker 1: Channel app sucks.
Speaker 2: Shit. It used to be better and now it's like
Speaker 2: got pop ups and ship That's.
Speaker 1: Why I just have the I just have like on
Speaker 1: my home screen. I just keep the little widget right
Speaker 1: there so then I can click that boom it brings
Speaker 1: it up, and then you got you have an hour
Speaker 1: by hour. Shit. I don't don't know what the weather
Speaker 1: Channel app that would have more than the native one.
Speaker 2: Yeah Apple, but anyway, yeah, but you can watch like
Speaker 2: I don't want to watch that patterns coming in and shit.
Speaker 2: And then you can also watch giant tornadoes.
Speaker 1: Right take people away. And you can also watch the
Speaker 1: new trailer for Twisters Twisters, which is a big dodge
Speaker 1: ram ad Yeah.
Speaker 2: Before Challengers that came on and my wife was like
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that looks so bad. I was like, yes, yes, bad, right,
Speaker 2: I have in no way, uh.
Speaker 1: Like, I was in no way about to be like.
Speaker 3: Holy shit, that looks awesome, babe, Baby fucking Twisters is bad.
Speaker 1: Did you see there's an ascid at the end of
Speaker 1: the title that there's more than one. The trucks look
Speaker 1: so much better in this one. Oh my god, do
Speaker 1: you think there's gonna be a new Dorothy?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: I can't even wait to see what that technology looks like.
Speaker 2: I do wonder, like have I wonder people with add
Speaker 2: have just gotten like way less effective since like smartphones
Speaker 2: became just the like a lens that we all used
Speaker 2: through through which we like interacted with the world.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean I feel like it just makes time disappear
Speaker 2: for me occasionally, especially if I'm like tired, you know,
Speaker 2: oh yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, to the time travel I do like in my Twilight,
Speaker 1: I'll be like looking at TikTok and then like her magic.
Speaker 1: He's like, well you need to you're literally holding a
Speaker 1: phone with your eyes closed. Yeah, And I'm like.
Speaker 2: If you have fallen asleep with your phone clenched in
Speaker 2: your hand the bed.
Speaker 1: All the time, all the time, and I feel like
Speaker 1: such shit when that happens. Yeah, that's why I like,
Speaker 1: now I'm really trying to do that shit where it's like, dude,
Speaker 1: when you get in that bed, just be there to
Speaker 1: be in that bed. It's like, stop doing the fucking
Speaker 1: wind down. Yeah. Anyway, anyways, overrated for me, traditional orchestral scoring, say,
Speaker 1: I say it's just a bit overrated, not to say
Speaker 1: that it's like useless, but I think, look, I just
Speaker 1: watched Challengers. Oh oh yeah, like using an orchestra, you know,
Speaker 1: to like strings and like a full orchestra. Yeah, Like,
Speaker 1: after watching Challengers, I'm reminded how exciting film scores can
Speaker 1: be when it's like it isn't just a conductor with
Speaker 1: an orchestra behind them, Like this shit is so traditional,
Speaker 1: and I get it, like it it's this, this is
Speaker 1: We've brought this into the entire age of cinema. Like
Speaker 1: that's why. Obviously, like it works so well and it's
Speaker 1: definitely given us some of our most memorable works of music,
Speaker 1: but it's limited in its sonic palette. And as someone
Speaker 1: who really loves music, I'm like, I'm just reminded how
Speaker 1: powerful music is. And when you couple that with the
Speaker 1: moving image. It takes things to a completely different level.
Speaker 1: And I just think limiting ourselves, Like we're limiting ourselves
Speaker 1: when we don't consider like all the ways we make
Speaker 1: music and the genres that are music. And obviously Trent
Speaker 1: Reznor and Aticus Ross aren't the first to use like
Speaker 1: synthesizers and a score, but like what the score did
Speaker 1: in Challengers really helped just take things, just gave it
Speaker 1: such a different texture in a different sense of like
Speaker 1: tension and excitement and competition that I don't just don't
Speaker 1: think like a traditional like string arrangement would have done.
Speaker 1: And you know, I think as we move along like
Speaker 1: this path of like musical history, like more people are
Speaker 1: used to hearing instruments other than the traditional orchestral ones,
Speaker 1: Like I understand one hundred years ago, those are the
Speaker 1: fucking instruments we had, but we have so many new
Speaker 1: genres and ways of looking at music. Like think about
Speaker 1: how like Quincy Jones and Isaac Hayes changed the game
Speaker 1: even with their scores by like like leaning into their
Speaker 1: unique styles like jazz, funk and things like that and
Speaker 1: like soul. And so this is reminded me like I
Speaker 1: used to do this thing in college where I would
Speaker 1: get super high and just audition different albums underneath movies
Speaker 1: because like once you heard about like the Dark Side
Speaker 1: of the Moon with the Wizard of Oz thing right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: But like I remember, like I had a teacher a
Speaker 1: professor in college like talk about that earnestly. I was like,
Speaker 1: oh shit, I'm gonna I sort of went on this
Speaker 1: like quest to be like I'm going to figure out
Speaker 1: the new Dark Side of the Moon over the Wizard
Speaker 1: of Did you think you find? I mean, look, I would.
Speaker 1: There was a lot of hits and misses, like sometimes
Speaker 1: shit would overlay perfectly and other times, like an album
Speaker 1: was just kind of go completely out of sync with
Speaker 1: like a film and weird moments. What is one combo
Speaker 1: that worked really well was watching Star Wars a New
Speaker 1: Hope with Radioheads kid a Wow, and that one was
Speaker 1: like there were Thompson was like, yo, bro, look at
Speaker 1: this shit. So that's cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah I can see that because yeah, there's something it's
Speaker 2: such a specific genre of music that like the film
Speaker 2: scores are like yeah, I mean it's amazing, Like there
Speaker 2: are definitely people working in that field to do like
Speaker 2: amazing things for sure, But like it does feel like
Speaker 2: there's a way to open things up a little more.
Speaker 2: And I got that impression both from watching Challengers and also,
Speaker 2: uh have you so Shrek has like needle drops, bro,
Speaker 2: that are somebody one.
Speaker 1: I've never heard anything quite like this. It was it
Speaker 1: was pushing. The paradigm has been shifted. I will also have.
Speaker 2: This needle drop where it's like when they're going on
Speaker 2: the journey to save the Princess and they're like walking
Speaker 2: a long distance and they needle drop a proclaimer's song,
Speaker 2: but it's not I would walk five hundred.
Speaker 1: Miles, but it like you got another song.
Speaker 2: It's so close that it's like you know that it's
Speaker 2: the people who sang that.
Speaker 1: So like that's a question. I actually am talking down
Speaker 1: a swampy road exactly. Yeah, I'm walking straight.
Speaker 2: Like did the filmmakers want me to ask if they
Speaker 2: had the budget for file I would walk five hundred miles.
Speaker 2: Did they want to pose that question in the viewer's mind.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Also, it's entirely possible that was the original needle drop
Speaker 2: and they just like couldn't get it for Amazon Prime.
Speaker 1: I don't know, they just changed. I would walk for
Speaker 1: a long while and it would walk much longer. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: but anyway, I just I was just thinking of, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: like the Watchman, that's a Trent reznor Aticus Ross joint.
Speaker 1: Like if the HBO Watchman series had like traditional orchestral
Speaker 1: into the entire time, I don't know if that shit
Speaker 1: would have hit his hard either. I'm just saying sound
Speaker 1: you know how much I love the social network. Yeah, yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: and that even has like a little bit of.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like yo, I feel bad about everything right now.
Speaker 2: This guy just got dumped in a Harvard bar I
Speaker 2: don't give a fuck. But it's all right there. Everything
Speaker 2: was about to go wrong with our world anyway, is
Speaker 2: let's take a quick break and we'll come back and
Speaker 2: talk about Rudy Giuliani. He back, and we're back. We're back,
Speaker 2: and rue Giuliani just had a big eightieth birthday party
Speaker 2: in Florida.
Speaker 1: So that's that story. Moving on.
Speaker 2: Nope, Actually something something happened. So he was posting videos
Speaker 2: or pictures from his birthday party, taunting Arizona authorities about
Speaker 2: how they couldn't find him, Like he was like, if
Speaker 2: Arizona authorities can't find me by tomorrow morning, one, they
Speaker 2: must dismiss the indictments too.
Speaker 1: They must concede they can't count votes.
Speaker 2: And he's like smiling with like a bunch of women
Speaker 2: around him, and the Arizona Attorney General's office showed up
Speaker 2: at his party. Yeah, you gift him him his indictment. Yeah,
Speaker 2: in the false electors.
Speaker 1: Poor guy. He did a live stream and everything, and
Speaker 1: he thought he knew how to avoid the long arm
Speaker 1: of the law. But it's funny because online this story
Speaker 1: kind of took like a turn about a turn. There
Speaker 1: was like a bit of misinformation at first, like people
Speaker 1: were circling like a person at the party who was
Speaker 1: like singing happy birthday to him. They're like, that's the
Speaker 1: fucking process server, he's fucking singing. And it turned out
Speaker 1: that was just a lie.
Speaker 2: I heard they popped out of the cake as a
Speaker 2: topless dancer. But then she handed him the papers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but then it turned out they were just waiting
Speaker 1: outside the party and like, hi, Rudy here and he's like, yeah, aah,
Speaker 1: you got me.
Speaker 2: Sorry, I gotta go delete something from my uh Twitter, from.
Speaker 1: My brain, from my memory.
Speaker 2: But yeah, the suit alleges he quote pressured officials into
Speaker 2: altering the twenty twenty election results, because of course he did.
Speaker 2: I feel like we've all seen him do that in
Speaker 2: speeches publicly. Yeah, but they didn't do this just to
Speaker 2: be assholes. They've had a hard time finding him. He's
Speaker 2: been hiding out, and I mean, I guess it's easier
Speaker 2: for him to hide out because his only job right
Speaker 2: now is basically the internet sweatiest YouTuber. Wow, he's just yeah,
Speaker 2: he's a sweating on YouTube for a living. So it's
Speaker 2: like it's not like he has to be in court
Speaker 2: or like at a job, so you can just kind
Speaker 2: of float around.
Speaker 1: I mean, I want for someone who's been like acting
Speaker 1: like what's that Fossbender film, mister Policeman. Oh yeah, like
Speaker 1: the Snowman can like doing shit like that. This guy
Speaker 1: he had his eightieth birthday like a prominent Florida Republican
Speaker 1: like operatives house right like to the point where like
Speaker 1: people got their hands on the invitation. So this shit
Speaker 1: was not like not kept low enough for somebody who's
Speaker 1: trying to act like you know, gop bin laden and
Speaker 1: trying to be like try and find me, even your
Speaker 1: little vaccine program scam, get me there. You cannot find
Speaker 1: my DNA.
Speaker 2: Man, the gop ben Lauden.
Speaker 1: You know exactly, that's what I've been saying. You know,
Speaker 1: it's true, been true. But yeah, I love that.
Speaker 2: He was like, they mustn't dismiss the indictment, saying the
Speaker 2: landmark legal case of Hyder's v. Seekers in the matter
Speaker 2: of Nana no booboo ah.
Speaker 1: No no no no boo boo. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: of course, yes, I remember very well. I think the
Speaker 1: war in court heard that case. R yes.
Speaker 2: In the world of Donald Trump, he showed up at
Speaker 2: the NRA's Angle meeting to accept their endorsement and give
Speaker 2: a keynote speech, and it was pretty unhinged.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it had it all. It literally, this only
Speaker 1: had it all. I'm sorry, wh'res stuff on.
Speaker 2: Exactly? He floated. You know, he's aid, you know, FDR
Speaker 2: sixteen years, almost sixteen years, his four terms. I don't know,
Speaker 2: are we going to be considered three term or two terms?
Speaker 2: I don't know which. Yeah, I mean, I like it's
Speaker 2: unclear textually what he's saying, but I think, like we
Speaker 2: all know, he would run if youre not leaving.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not. It's not even a term, it's not
Speaker 1: even two terms. He's basically I know in his mind
Speaker 1: he this is I mean, if their fantasy world comes
Speaker 1: to fruition, it would him just be like refusing to
Speaker 1: ever like go of power, and then that's just what
Speaker 1: it would be. Yeah, I don't know. That's where I'm like,
Speaker 1: can't they, like the big business people do something. Aren't
Speaker 1: they usually good at like snubbing people out, like why're
Speaker 1: fucking up the money? But I don't know. Anyway, November,
Speaker 1: take a time, Take your time, Take your time.
Speaker 2: He suggested they have drug tests before the debate because
Speaker 2: Biden was high as a kite during the State of
Speaker 2: the Union addressed the other day that.
Speaker 1: Was in March. That's like a straight out of my
Speaker 1: mom's handbook. The other day is anywhere from yesterday to
Speaker 1: seventeen years ago. Okay, but the fucking it's it's that
Speaker 1: brain pause that I think everyone was like, oh, what
Speaker 1: is happening here? My lord?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Here, my lord?
Speaker 2: He went John Cage on their ass and just did
Speaker 2: thirty three whole seconds of silence in the middle of
Speaker 2: his speech.
Speaker 1: Yeah it's now. I'll just I'll positive people have probably
Speaker 1: seen this clip or maybe heard it, but just so
Speaker 1: you know, just so you can have this in your mind.
Speaker 1: The campaign says. It was actually like a sick ass
Speaker 1: dramatic pause. He was doing but here you you, you
Speaker 1: here for yourself, nation and the history of the world.
Speaker 1: She's just looking.
Speaker 2: He opens his mouth to say something, closes it again,
Speaker 2: shaking his head, shaking his head, looking at the teleprompter,
Speaker 2: making a whistling thing, looking at the telephone.
Speaker 1: Looking around the room where am I where.
Speaker 2: Again, closes his mouth, not really moving.
Speaker 1: Now He's like, uh shit, I looked at that stage left,
Speaker 1: looks off like as if you said someone called his name,
Speaker 1: and he's trying.
Speaker 4: To get hum but he's oh, and we're back and
Speaker 4: were back online and okay, okay, dad, whatever you say
Speaker 4: that that was no brain fart or whatever that is.
Speaker 2: And so the music, yeah, we should mentioninic. Brian the
Speaker 2: editor was like, is the music diegetic or does somebody
Speaker 2: add that? No? That, So his campaign started playing a
Speaker 2: QAnon anthem. It's this instrumental piece called Mirrors, which got
Speaker 2: posted by a QAnon person with a video and then
Speaker 2: everybody became like a meme song within the world of QAnon,
Speaker 2: used without the right to use it by the QAnon
Speaker 2: people and by Donald Trump. But so he just I
Speaker 2: don't know if he was like distracted by the music
Speaker 2: or I don't know. Based on the video, it also
Speaker 2: seems like maybe he's just like feeling himself so much
Speaker 2: that he can like stop in the middle of the
Speaker 2: speech and let the music ride.
Speaker 1: A little bit. Yeah, He's like, this is very standard
Speaker 1: in all my speeches. Uh, okay, I mean, like.
Speaker 2: Your little nap in the middle of my speech. Either way,
Speaker 2: they're three hours, folks, What am I going to do?
Speaker 1: Both both candidates are failing to impress right now? What
Speaker 1: are you talking about? No, they're great. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: I mean that Biden gave the commencement speech at Morehouse
Speaker 1: and like a bunch of the students turn their chairs
Speaker 1: around in protest. Oh, Dennis, Yeah, yeah, yeah, And he
Speaker 1: was and he was like when the valedictorian called for
Speaker 1: a ceasefire, Biden seemingly seemed to applaud, like applaud that moment. Oh,
Speaker 1: and then he's like, I hear you, folks. He's like,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I'm working around the clock, you know,
Speaker 1: like your peaceful protests deserve to be heard, unless it's
Speaker 1: an encampment anyway. Piece Full is a sliding scale depending
Speaker 1: on the mood of the be.
Speaker 2: Careful about the encampments with those professional terrorist bike chains,
Speaker 2: because yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, damn Kryptonite man. They could kill Superman these bike locks.
Speaker 2: Also, in the world of Trump, were still getting clarifications
Speaker 2: around crowd size.
Speaker 1: Dude.
Speaker 5: Yeah, So last week on the Weekend Trending episode, we
Speaker 5: talked about how Trump was talking all that shit in
Speaker 5: New Jersey on the god Bruce Springsteen and he and
Speaker 5: officials in Wildwood, New Jersey were claiming between eighty and
Speaker 5: one hundred thousand people, and we were, I mean, obviously
Speaker 5: everyone was dubious.
Speaker 1: Immediately, even Fox was like, at best, maybe thirty thousand
Speaker 1: at best. Well, most people that have brains and a
Speaker 1: memory looked at the images and had seen more people
Speaker 1: basically in line for a Black Friday doorbuster sale. Journalists
Speaker 1: kept pressing Wildwood officials about how how the fuck they
Speaker 1: got this number, and just let me just read these
Speaker 1: quotes from you. This is from the New Jersey Insider
Speaker 1: quote Wildwood officials, who are the source for the Associated
Speaker 1: presses reporting that former President Trump drew between eighty thousand
Speaker 1: and one hundred thousand to a beach front weekend rally.
Speaker 1: Now say it was not the number on the beach
Speaker 1: at the rally per se, but rather it was the
Speaker 1: number of people quote in our town end quote.
Speaker 2: Huh so the just our entire population.
Speaker 1: That's like eighty thousand people in town. I don't know
Speaker 1: for the rally. I don't know of that part, but
Speaker 1: that's how this goes on. Quote. This is from one
Speaker 1: of the spokes people, Wildwood. Quote. As a tourist town,
Speaker 1: we speak in tourism numbers. When we see that that
Speaker 1: volume of people attending a beach event, we know that
Speaker 1: eighty plus thousand people are in our town. So we
Speaker 1: see a quarter of a million visitors every weekend in
Speaker 1: the summer on our one point eight nine mile boardwalk,
Speaker 1: not to mention our five mile island, So we know
Speaker 1: that volume. What that volume looks like. They were watching
Speaker 1: and listening from the beach and boardwalk, in bars and
Speaker 1: rest at hotels and second homes and even streets parade style.
Speaker 1: We defer to the Trump campaign for the exact count
Speaker 1: on the beach. Hot Potato, Yeah, yeah, I did that ship.
Speaker 1: I can't believe they really said, yeah, man, if you
Speaker 1: were just even if the people who were driving through
Speaker 1: in their cars on the interstate, people.
Speaker 2: Driving through who rolled down their window, possibly to smell
Speaker 2: the Saltaire, possibly because they wanted to get a better
Speaker 2: earshot of Yeah.
Speaker 1: Or maybe someone farted in the car. Yeah, that counts.
Speaker 1: That counts because they were near Wildwood when Trump was there,
Speaker 1: Therefore they attended.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Anyways, congratulations to the Jersey Shore. And I so
Speaker 2: a lot of times I will say and this is
Speaker 2: not the part of the Jersey Shore that I go to.
Speaker 2: This is the part of the Jersey Shore that I coach.
Speaker 2: This is like right next to Ocean City, just a
Speaker 2: couple islands over, And it's basically that they have like
Speaker 2: a lot of the same pizza places.
Speaker 1: We like, sort of like cut and print, sort of
Speaker 1: like copy and paste sort of vibe.
Speaker 2: Ocean City is a little different because it's like a
Speaker 2: dry town, so it has more of like children's feel
Speaker 2: to it, except at night when people go bonkers and
Speaker 2: it's the leading drunk driving city in America. But yeah,
Speaker 2: also we skipped past the part where he Trump stops
Speaker 2: during a speech and just plays a QAnon song for
Speaker 2: like over his speech, which like that was the thing
Speaker 2: he started doing fairly recently.
Speaker 1: To rally them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very strange, but I guess just a testament
Speaker 2: to like how authoritarians and like how this like sort
Speaker 2: of creep works where like something starts out and it's
Speaker 2: like that is so strange. And then like three he
Speaker 2: does this three more times and we're just like yeah.
Speaker 2: And then so he starts playing a music during his
Speaker 2: speech that is a song favored by a weird cult
Speaker 2: that wants Trump to kill their enemies.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's called coalition building. Yeah, that's what we do,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, just letting people know where
Speaker 1: we're at, you know, just like how they play they
Speaker 1: not like us, not like us at the rally, just
Speaker 1: to let you know that Trump's on the on the
Speaker 1: Kendrick side of things.
Speaker 2: That's right. All right, let's take a quick break. We
Speaker 2: want we're going to come back and talk about Harrison Buckkerr,
Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs kicker who quote Tommy boy, that's
Speaker 2: one apple that fell very far from the tree I
Speaker 2: think or something you know in that in that family.
Speaker 2: And we're back.
Speaker 1: We're we're back.
Speaker 2: And so last week you may have seen that can
Speaker 2: the City Chiefs kicker, Harrison Butker gave a commencement speech
Speaker 2: Butker Kicker Butker gave a commencement speech to the conservative
Speaker 2: Catholic school Benedictine College, where he called Pride Month a
Speaker 2: deadly sin, criticized the tyranny of diversity, equity and inclusion,
Speaker 2: and suggested that women will find quote more fulfillment through
Speaker 2: getting married and having children than by pursuing careers.
Speaker 1: Mm hm, great culture war moment because everybody came out,
Speaker 1: whether it's to defend or be like, what the fuck
Speaker 1: is this for? Wasn't it The wife of the owner
Speaker 1: of the Chiefs is like, I agree? Oh really I
Speaker 1: think so? Yeah? He I mean he had some interesting
Speaker 1: allies that popped out after this controversy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so people who seem to not ally themselves with
Speaker 2: his point of view. The NFL is now distancing themselves
Speaker 2: from Butker, Which how big of a piece of shit
Speaker 2: do you have to be for the ethical dumpster fire
Speaker 2: that is the NFL to be like, oh hey man.
Speaker 1: We're good over here.
Speaker 2: And there's been a lot of people, just a lot
Speaker 2: of discourse online, even condemned by a group of nuns
Speaker 2: who are a founding institution and sponsor of Benedictine College.
Speaker 1: The nuns pulled up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, two conservative for the Catholic Church is
Speaker 2: pretty wild.
Speaker 1: That's wild. Yeah, but so.
Speaker 2: One outlet also reported that Bucker's mom is an accomplished
Speaker 2: physicist who works in the field of radiation oncology. And
Speaker 2: we have so that was from page six. So I
Speaker 2: had to get secondary confirmation and got it from the
Speaker 2: only reliable source on the internet, Snopes, who found Elizabeth
Speaker 2: Butker is a medical physicist at Emory University's Winship Cancer Institute.
Speaker 2: In a January twenty twenty article on Emory's Way web site,
Speaker 2: Harrison Bucker is pictured with his mother and it's like this,
Speaker 2: you know, workplace email where they're like Winship medical physicist
Speaker 2: Elizabeth Keller Butker has a special reason to watch the
Speaker 2: Super Bowl This year. Her son, Harrison Butker, a record
Speaker 2: setting field goal kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, will
Speaker 2: go head to head with the San Francisco forty nine
Speaker 2: ers in the sports event of the year, Super Bowl
Speaker 2: whatever that number is.
Speaker 1: Fifty four super Bowl Live Live, they live Kyler, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but he didn't go there.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure why they went with him, as the
Speaker 2: is the commencement speaker, but.
Speaker 1: They I don't know. I mean, is the school in Missouri?
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe Kansas. It's in Kansas, right, so.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know a local guy.
Speaker 2: Kansas City is not even in Kansas, so right, it's close,
Speaker 2: it's close, it's close. It has Kansas in the name.
Speaker 1: Look, do you hate diversity, equity and inclusion, then you
Speaker 1: can speak at Benedictine College. That's the only thing we needed.
Speaker 1: And plus you got a few followers on Twitter. We'll
Speaker 1: take that. We'll take that.
Speaker 2: But like the nuns who like helped found the institution said,
Speaker 2: we sisters have dedicated our lives to God and God's people,
Speaker 2: including many women whom we have taught and influenced during
Speaker 2: the past one hundred and sixty years. So it's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: the women aren't just sent to go home.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like the quotes. One of our concerns was
Speaker 1: the assertion that being a homemaker is the highest calling
Speaker 1: for a woman, right, yeah, yeah, the nuns, the nuns, nuns,
Speaker 1: yeah are even come on, Bud Kerr. But I don't know,
Speaker 1: just a.
Speaker 2: When I saw his comments, I assumed he was like
Speaker 2: homeschooled in some like McMansion with survivalist parents, but he's
Speaker 2: just like this is all willfully Like I don't know
Speaker 2: the exact details, but it's giving. Like you know when
Speaker 2: you see Iran before the revolution and everyone's like wearing
Speaker 2: you know, all the women are like dressed professionally on
Speaker 2: their way to work, Like that's a picture of this
Speaker 2: guy's family tree if he had it his way, Like
Speaker 2: what what do you mean? Well, like his mom is
Speaker 2: like this amazing professional and he's like, no, you're saying
Speaker 2: he wants He's saying the world now is like fighting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, He's like I don't. He wants to see a
Speaker 1: world where it's all all traditional roles forever. Bloody sure.
Speaker 1: I mean like this guy is such a fucking loser. True,
Speaker 1: it's like wow too, Like yeah, even like the other
Speaker 1: students are like, I like, even though people were cheering,
Speaker 1: they're like a couple of students Like some obviously applauded
Speaker 1: that ship. There are other people that were just mortified
Speaker 1: that whole time. Yeah, anyway way to go.
Speaker 2: Butcker, I wonder if it's like that his mom is
Speaker 2: so impressive that he's.
Speaker 1: Oh he's like piped down ladies.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like the way that Tucker Carlson is like motivated
Speaker 2: by his mom doing something awesome in his mom. In
Speaker 2: Tucker Carlson's mom case, it's leaving Tucker Carlson to go
Speaker 2: fuck people in France. But in this case, it's like
Speaker 2: Harrison Butker is emasculated by his mom being an amazing uh.
Speaker 2: And it's like he's like a noncologist, yeah, physicist and oncologists.
Speaker 2: It's like helping people with cancer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I kick a fucking ball, mom.
Speaker 2: It's also like, I do wonder is field goal kicker
Speaker 2: one of those things where like complexity of thought could
Speaker 2: actually be damaging when all you need to do is
Speaker 2: make the ball go through big yellow y.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, huh maybe, I mean yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I just hopefully is he Is he good? Like he's
Speaker 1: pretty good. Yeah, he's on a super Bowl winning multiple
Speaker 1: super Bowl winning teams, so these that's probably one of
Speaker 1: the saying You're like, yeah, man, Butker is kind of
Speaker 1: a fucking goon. But yeah, the boy can kick that leg,
Speaker 1: that leg kick hard. Yeah.
Speaker 2: The only person defending him is Bill Maher.
Speaker 1: All right, right's out of history. You're on the right side, buddy.
Speaker 1: Never mind, I take it all back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, says he's confused. Why anybody would take issue with
Speaker 2: the speech.
Speaker 1: Did you see that clip? But when Bill Burr went on, yeah,
Speaker 1: and he's like, what the fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 1: You don't know ship, you don't know anything. You're a
Speaker 1: fucking expert.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with the kids. That's childish, Bill, it's childish.
Speaker 2: You actually don't me. I talk to a lot of
Speaker 2: people who know a lot of every day, a lot
Speaker 2: a lot of people.
Speaker 1: Bill so incensed by Bill Myerson. Nonsense.
Speaker 2: You had a cool heavy metal T shirt and black
Speaker 2: plays are on so cool?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's all right.
Speaker 2: An Iranian president Ibrahim Reisi died in a helicopter crash.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what it. From the beginning, when I saw that,
Speaker 1: I was like, oh because after the was it? The
Speaker 1: PM of Slovakia was like shot. I'm like, we're getting
Speaker 1: like World War three vibes like all over the place
Speaker 1: right now, Like what's going on? But it seems like
Speaker 1: at first, Oh, there was a lot of you know,
Speaker 1: a lot of like people are like, what exactly has happened?
Speaker 1: Was there some kind of is this some sort of uh,
Speaker 1: what's the word I'm looking for? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, but
Speaker 1: the assassination yeah yeah, yeah, or just yeah, some kind
Speaker 1: of cover something was being done. Was there some some
Speaker 1: foolery going on it? But it turns out, I mean,
Speaker 1: at least according to what's coming out of like the
Speaker 1: Iran too there and officials there is like very just
Speaker 1: super fucking foggy and the weather was terrible. So I
Speaker 1: don't know, I mean it's said, I mean, it's like
Speaker 1: a lot of people are comparing it to like what
Speaker 1: happened with Kobe Bryant's helicopter going down to They're just
Speaker 1: like they can.
Speaker 2: It's sort of reminded me of because that's the last
Speaker 2: helicopter crash that I was, you know, paying attention to.
Speaker 1: There was also something with like an official in Ukraine
Speaker 1: like recently too had like a helicopter crash too. I
Speaker 1: think due to like inclement weather just goes to show you, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's very don't I guess, don't try and fucking fly
Speaker 1: a helicopter in the fog. But also I think the
Speaker 1: helicopter that they were in was very very old, forty
Speaker 1: five year old helicopter. Yeah. And because of all the sanctions, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Thanks to the sanctions that have frozen out their economy,
Speaker 2: their president has to like fly around in an old helicopter.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, he k had been dubbed the
Speaker 2: Butcher of Tehran long before becoming president and was most
Speaker 2: mostly noted for brutally cracking down on protesters in protests
Speaker 2: that we talked about, where over five hundred people were killed.
Speaker 2: So some Iranians are celebrating the news his disappearance, although
Speaker 2: reports that people were setting off fireworks and tarron have
Speaker 2: not been confirmed. But yeah, people are suspicious about the crash.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of intrigue. Yeah, and also like there's
Speaker 1: also internal things too, because this guy seemed to be
Speaker 1: like the person that would succeed the Ayatola, the supreme leader.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, so yeah, just just more wrinkles in our
Speaker 1: geopolitical landscape at the moment.
Speaker 2: All right, did he issue an apology over the weekend
Speaker 2: for abuse now that he's been caught on tape? Like
Speaker 2: the weekend started with him being like, that's it, I'm
Speaker 2: no longer taking this city lying down, like these false accusations.
Speaker 2: I'm going to fight them, like just wait, and then
Speaker 2: you know, a video was released hours later and he
Speaker 2: was like, Okay, look, I'm sorry, these allegations are not false,
Speaker 2: and I think responsibility.
Speaker 1: Yeah, CNN aired this hotel footage from LA where he
Speaker 1: is seen just just horrifically like physically assaulting Cassie, he
Speaker 1: was his then girlfriend. And yeah, I mean this apology
Speaker 1: video was fucking awful. Like, I don't know who the
Speaker 1: fuck tells these people to do these fucking videos, especially too,
Speaker 1: because the motherfuckers are never sorry, no in the apology videos.
Speaker 1: They're just like, okay, I have to just do the
Speaker 1: things that you do in the apology video. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So now he's apparently disgusted by the behavior, whereas before
Speaker 2: he and his lawyer called the allegations baseless and outrageous
Speaker 2: lies aiming to tarnish mister Combs's reputation and seeking a payday.
Speaker 2: But he did check all the celebrity apology video boxes looking.
Speaker 1: Step one, don't first of all, Step one, don't actually
Speaker 1: be sorry.
Speaker 2: Don't be sorry, ye, Step two rustic wooden background of
Speaker 2: some sort. Step three be like waking up from a
Speaker 2: long nap like they was, or I'm thinking Ashton Kutcher
Speaker 2: here and step forward just like a ratty T shirt
Speaker 2: to remind everyone that you're just a regular person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just I mean, like it's all of these
Speaker 1: allegations that have come out are fucking frightening. It's wild
Speaker 1: though too. Like the video is now, people are like, oh, okay,
Speaker 1: this guy's cooked. It's on video. It's on video now,
Speaker 1: so that's right. So yeah, we will see what happens there.
Speaker 1: I mean, like as of now, I don't I don't
Speaker 1: know how many people have like severed ties since like
Speaker 1: the initial stuff had come out, but surely have a
Speaker 1: reason now to do nothing, have nothing to do with
Speaker 1: this man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then a quick update on Megalapolis.
Speaker 1: We got to see this ship. I know it might
Speaker 1: be so bad. It's good.
Speaker 2: Francis word Coupla's long awaited film that he like sold
Speaker 2: off part of his winery to finance, you know, sunk
Speaker 2: one hundred million dollars I think of his own money
Speaker 2: into the making of the movie. And you know, stories
Speaker 2: from the set include him like spending all day smoking
Speaker 2: weed in his trailer while everybody, well like the crew,
Speaker 2: cast and crew just like wait ready to shoot, and
Speaker 2: then you'd like come out and be like, ah, scrap
Speaker 2: it all.
Speaker 1: I got a whole new idea that like would be
Speaker 1: all right, this character is actually gonna die now in
Speaker 1: this actually I just think I think that'll be more cool.
Speaker 2: Well yeah, yeah, but the so it premiered at con,
Speaker 2: uh elicited a mix of booze and cheers, which is
Speaker 2: kind of what I was hoping for. Yeah, like booze
Speaker 2: and cheers. But the moment everyone's been talking about, and
Speaker 2: I guess this is a.
Speaker 1: Spoiler, but spoiler alert if you really don't want the
Speaker 1: Megalopolis experience to be spoiled. And I say experience because
Speaker 1: it's not necessary, just the plot.
Speaker 2: But yeah, about midway through the movie, an actor from
Speaker 2: the audience, so the movie cuts to like a black screen,
Speaker 2: someone walks up onto a stage in front of the
Speaker 2: movie screen and then for a moment, like everybody's like,
Speaker 2: what the fuck's happening? Does that person have a bomb?
Speaker 1: What is going on?
Speaker 2: And then but instead the person takes out a mic
Speaker 2: from and UH plays the role of a reporter asking
Speaker 2: Adam Driver's character questions at a press conference following a
Speaker 2: major disaster, and Driver, of course is his characters on
Speaker 2: the screen, and he like answers the question, and then
Speaker 2: the guy just like goes back and says back down,
Speaker 2: and everyone's like what tech? I thought, Yo, what if.
Speaker 1: Someone from the audience came up and then interacted with
Speaker 1: the dude on screen.
Speaker 2: But what if the audience talked back to Ferris Bueller
Speaker 2: when he talked to audience.
Speaker 1: It's like a choose your own adventure and based on
Speaker 1: the cheers, we can, we can, we can switch out
Speaker 1: the tapes for what happens next.
Speaker 2: What what you're describing is fucking impossible. No, yeah, this
Speaker 2: does feel like Brian editor is pointing out, like a
Speaker 2: good like midnight movie type deal. Oh yeah, like the
Speaker 2: Room if the was made by friends. Ford Coppola, one
Speaker 2: of the French distributors, said that they're actually going to
Speaker 2: try and make this gimmick happen by employing an actor
Speaker 2: for every screening, even though it quote will not be easy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean in La you will not have trouble.
Speaker 1: People would be fucking busting down the door to play
Speaker 1: the audience journalist character. Yeah, I'm in Megalopolis. Oh really?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I have been Frank that you prince for
Speaker 2: uh Franky?
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh you're so what senior? I mean? Okay, well
Speaker 1: are you in the credits?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 3: Did you see the nine to forty five PM showing
Speaker 3: on July eighteenth at the AMC Burbank sixteen of Megalapolis,
Speaker 3: because I was the guy who.
Speaker 1: Emerged from the audience and then asked Adam Driver thing
Speaker 1: and then went back to his seat after everyone started
Speaker 1: throwing drinks at me. That was me.
Speaker 2: Or you'll just be like the sixteen year old working
Speaker 2: the snack bar at the AMC. We'll have to like
