The just started doing hey hey, yeah, yeah hey. So we are thrilled to be joined by a very funny comedian and writer, host the food podcast Yelling About Potte and host of the live pop up comedy food wine show A Mouse Bush. Please welcome back to this show. It's Carl. Oh my god, happy to

be here. And I'd be remiss if I didn't say that I have had salty liquorice and it's delicious. Isn't it good? Your sweetest friend is right? Wait, what is salty liquorice? Your bush is amused when you have that s it's like the it's like the savory version of liquorice pretty much. So it tastes like meat. Yeah, it tastes like a nice steak. You see cheddar and onion. The one that I had had with salty one side, sweet on the other. Yeah, they'll have a liquorice steak

and sweeten you cut it with a forking knife. Say yeah, I recently had a Suvite salty liquorice patty, fantastic bet. It was great. Yeah, Carl, tell me about a moose bush because before you're talking, You're like, I'm combining comedy, food and wine, and I'm like, like dinner theater. Yeah, I mean kind of. Actually, yeah, a lot like that. It's a top up food and wine party that we do at a Melody Wine Bar and virgil Villas Natural Wine Bar, and uh, basically we have two different guest

chefs every show. We have different wines on special. Sometimes we have a winemaker there and then uh, your your ticket gets you the food, you buy wine from the bar. Everybody gets drunk, and then we have like a you know, a tight comedy show, tightest show in talent. It's an hour long three comedians. You know you see these La comedies shows, the Book and nine ten people. Nobody needs that much comedy in my life. Comedy yeah, yeah, yeah, No one needs, uh I say, no one needs over

ninety minutes of any content. Really, movies, comedy, like definitely not stand up comedy. So yeah, we do a tight one hour show to exactly. Then we have a DJ we dance, we do the perne, which, if you don't know, is a Spanish class drinking instrument where you pour wine into your mouth from a great height like that thing. Oh yeah, that features prominently into the entire show. So what do people like just bib up or whatever before they go best? You got a raw dogged baby. That's

what it's all about. The red wine splattering everywhere. We don't use red if you're not actively if you're not actively a Spaniard, I do not encourage peroning red wine. You have to. That's high levels of You start with white as someone who likes to, you know, sometimes have a baja blast and I am willing to appropriate Spanish culture. I feel like I'm ready for the just the rialha down my gullet. Yeah, I would say perona baha blast and see how that goes, and then you know they

move from there. Yeah yeah, start that shot before. So that's I think I've shotgun them with miles of my house. Didn't shot? I think I watched you do it, and then I looked at her majesty, and she's like she's like, she gave you a shake of the head down. The divorce lawyer his send, I recently had a flaming hot mountain dew. Actually yeah, and you know what, it wasn't disgusting like I thought it was gonna be. Was not hot at all, which was my right. I was like,

this should be a little bit spicy. I know it has may whisper, the hint of like the spiciness of ginger beer. I wanted to to scald my escophagus with chemical burns. But right, right, yeah, well look, they can't really do. Like did you hear about like how people who are eating Chipotle now they're like the hot sauce is way too hot. Now it got way hot, and

like people are fucking freaking out. We're also soft, and I'm like, come on, but it turns out there like Chipotle, it was like, I mean, we get it from the same place as all the time, but then they suspect it was a batch of like these chilies that they got from India that maybe slightly hotter, and like, I forget,

we're a super producer. Victor sent me the article because I love hearing about people who are like too spicy, too spicy, and they're like it was just a little couple skull vills above normal, right, whatever, Pepper's gonna be wildly. You know, there's a spectrum. Sometimes you got alipano, You're like, this is my old Sometimes you got a halpanio that fucks your day up. Oh yeah, or even like a shshido pepper. You you yeah, they will fucking they will

jump you in an alley. You didn't expect it. You thought it was gonna be a nice little appetizer. It guess what, motherfucker, this is a spicy one. All right, Carl, We're gonna get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking about. We're gonna talk about Ted Cruise's prescription for fixing the school shooting problem in America. Treat schools like banks. He said that a week ago, and then there was a mass shooting in a bank.

So we'll talk about that in some new guns statistics. Uh, we're gonna talk about this. Harvard alum McKenzie alum, who is openly advocating for bringing back public lynchings in San Francisco, but like doesn't seem to know that that's what she's I don't know it. Shell Tandler on Twitter, go check her out. We'll talk about her. We'll talk about how the right is celebrating Super Mario for its anti wokeness h and also blasting super Mario for its wokeness some

same film. Um, we'll talk about the Bodyguard musical causing people to to sing along like, Wow, the show is happening. Did you see that clip of the Reason Can't Stop? And it like turned into a riot? You thought these women were like like advocating for gun control. The way they were fucking ripped out of their seats and like taken out of the theater, it was something else. And then we have some good news you. We don't always just give outright good news here, but um, you can

now order Domino's Pizza Wild Driving. Finally, thank you you can. Did you watch the promotional video? No, we're gonna have to though before we talk about it. It's it's a blast all that plenty more. But first, Carl, we do like to ask our guests, what is something from your search history? You know I've been doing a lot of googling about like how hard it is actually to like move into the woods, like off the grid, you know,

like what's actually involved in that? Because I think about that, I feel like more and more of these days, with increasing frequency, I'm like I should just like move into the woods and just like never come back. You know. Yeah, I think logistically it's kind of tough. It's like you're gonna need a goat, You're gonna need some chicken. Yeah, Like you're gonna need assive perimeter of some kind. Is that what they tell you? Well, you didn't. You need to raise your own food if you're off the grid.

So you know, I'm gonna eggs. Yeah, you can't be You can't be doing car ordering of dominoes once you're off the grid. Yeah, car play won't work in your car you're off the grid. Yeah. And then you got you probably have to form like a defensive perimeter of some kind because they'll be raiders. This is someone, dude.

I just watched the third episode of Last of Us, and this is exactly what Nick Offerman's character was going through, and I was like, I've always been like, yeah, I wonder what it would be like in watching him go through it, like trying to do this shit solo. I was like, oh, that's way too much work, bro, I'm not gonna do animal husbandry and shit fucking I haven't done that show, but I that appeals to me, And you're right, I think the actual reality of it, You're like,

damn a lot of manual labor. You could watch that episode actually in a vacuum because it's kind of like just sort of specifically to this character within the show, and it's just like all about this dude who's like surviving the zombie apocalypse, who's like he's like a prepper, and he's like, now's my time, and you're like it looks I'm like, wow, you've got it all, but it

looks incredibly lonely. Yeah. Yeah, he probably had to act so hard to make it look difficult for him, all right, right, because yeah, he would be a breeze for him in real life. Oh yeah, He's like, I could make all of this out of wood, right, complex machines, out most of the wooden tools I need. I made them in my shop. I can actually do it without any nails. I'm an expert in Japanese joinery. He was in the studio the other day was yeah, have you heard his

real have you heard his real laugh? Ye? It's the best bet shit ever. It's like when you when it happens, it's such a treat. I remember interviewing him once and he laughed for real and I was like, I was like, wait, that's great, like like like he laughs like that like goofy. Yeah. Like it's so differently because he'll be like yeah, And I remember meeting a fan who got a you know, Ron Swanson tattoo with me making a pizza. Like he's a good heart. Oh yeah, totally totally, but it's just

a funny one. Outwardly, everyone just thinks of him as being this such like superly stoic guy when he's like a theater kid who loves carpentry and laughing. Yeah, that's that's I went and saw when I was I think it was like late teen, early twenties, I guess I

went to the Craig Kilborne show. He was having Clint Eastwood on his show, and like he had this thing throughout the early years of the Craig Kilborn Show where like Clint Eastwood was this like masculinity, like badass, like Icon and he like had him on and interviewed him, and Clint Eastwood was just like, yeah, I'm like into jazz and stuff, really like jazz and playing instruments, and it was just like Craig Kilborne was so disappointed. It

was great. Oh there's somebody made a montage of him giggling. Yeah, not Clint Eastwood, He's never giggled. Yeah, Okay, that was a goolahn amazing what a charmer? Yeah? What is What's something you think is overrated? Oh? Man? You know I've been seeing them a lot in the news and maybe more so recently, the robot dogs. M Like, I just think making robots in general is overrated, and like why do who is supporting the robot dogs? Like, I know

people like them, Like why are we doing? Oh yeah, every time I pay this, I'm like, this is a terrible idea. Well yeah, you a tilitarian. The family that made that, and we'll be billionaires for five generations going forward. I think are the the I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say, designing robots that will eventually kill us very overrated. Yeah. I don't know why we're putting resources towards this. I mean I do know why. But you know what's so funny.

I feel like within two months, those like those fucking like Boston Dynamics robots have gone on the fucking trash because of what AI's been doing, where we're like, yeah, youah, shut up your fucking weird robots something script. Yeah, why Yeah, this guy's writing this, This fucking AI is writing a Spentura four as a speck And it's fucking really good. And it's good. It's actually better too. It nails it without the transphobia of the first one. Yeah. I like

that they skipped a Spentura three. Yeah, the AI knew that that wasn't necessary. You know, it's so weird. You know the reason I even said for is because I know somebody whose partner was like, was writing a spent Tura three? Is this as a spec? And I remember it's like this thing where alays be like, oh, that's such a bummer, dude, Like I don't want to tell You're like, I don't know, there might be a better way to get your foot in the doors a writer

than writing a Spindura three on spec. But hey, you know, part of me wants to see it. But you know how like jaded people are in this industry too, Like you hear an idea and you're like, ah, the era of writing a really funny spec script to get in is like that was like twelve years ago. But what the Seinfeld nine to eleven specs that guy got? You know Alex Sulkin right right Lea sulk who's now what like a family guy writer? Yeah, yeah, I mean it

worked for him. Yeah, he's developing a bunch of robotic there. It is acepen to reverse the robot dogs. Yeah, oh shit, the protected the pets are being replaced with robot It is perfect. There, it is. What is something you think is underrated? Something that I did recently, for the first time maybe ever in my adult life. I did not look at my phone for an entire day. I didn't even have it on for an entire day. Wow, I feel like it's been I don't know if I've ever

actually done that completely, like fully committed to it. I was backpacking in Joshua Tree and it was really more like a day and a half actually, and I was like, I'm just gonna turn off my phone and just fucking rock with the natural world. Baby. There you go, and uh you know what. It felt pretty good. It felt pretty good. I'm no anxiety, you know, there was a little bit of it, but I don't know. It was actually really relaxing. I don't know, like oh yeah, like

like everyone, I'm always looking at my phone. It's always on me, it's always in my hand. I think just like not having that weight, that psychic weight was It was refreshing. But of course I immediately was like, oh shit, I gotta get on Instagram. And so would you do like make eye contact with the people you were like walking around with. I was by myself, so I was on kind of like a solo like spirit quest in the middle of de Yeah, did you take pictures of

everything you saw to prove that you were there? It's funny. I was thinking that, and every time I saw something cool, I was like, oh, I should turn on my phone take a picture of that. And I was like, calm down, calm down, you got this, easy, easy, easy. You don't need to photograph everything. Look at it with your mind and remember it with your brain. Be present and look at it exactly. I was trying. I was trying. I was trying hard, and you know, it was it was

pretty good. Yeah, oh man, I there's something like to what you're getting at is like when you're able to replace the feeling of like, you know, when you have your phone, it's sort of there to be like, oh well, if I fucking need to think about something, to do something,

I can always look at this. But when you can replace that with like you know, being in nature or like building someone or doing whatever, like playing music, that's really like when you're like, oh, yeah, this is this is living when you realize you don't when you feel like I don't need to reach for that phone. Yeah. Also, I think I remember about it. I don't know if it's because of COVID or how how time has warped

because of COVID. I just feel like my memory in recent years it's just like terrible, Like yeah, my brain, I can't remember anything before COVID. Like someone's like, I remember like this twenty eighteen. I'm like, no, absolutely, not talking about anything before COVID. Anything during COVID. I'm like, this is all missed. I still conflate the summer of twenty twenty and twenty twenty one. Oh yeah, I have

the hardest time differentiating between the two. Like and I'm always like wait, oh no, right, right, right, I have a vaccine that summer, right, And I'm like, I don't know if I just put my brain into like cryo freeze or something. It was a lost year. We were like the lost generation World War one style. It's just like what happened? What even happened? What even happened? Man? And World War One was the time that there was a similar pandemic that shut everything down A long hundred

years later. Fun tradition, the fun little tradition. We have tradition like any other global pandemic that lacks you out for two years of your life. I have been noticing talking about the robot dog and getting technology out of our lives. It seems like things are coming to a head in the public consciousness with regards to AI and

just like freaking out about it. Like I've noticed, you know, in the mainstream like Drudge for the past couple days, the four like main headlines that are in red are all about like everyone's freaking out about AI, Like industry leaders are pulling the plug on AI, Like do we have a good reason for that? Do we think that it? Like for the people, the current power structure is just like too destabilizing, is it? Because Acepentura for Pet Detective

Verse Prime Directive was so good. Yeah, Hollywood writers know that they're shit out of luck. They're like pull the plug. Oh yeah, writer strike is coming up. Yeah yeah, They're

like like this won't stand. Yeah. Uh Now, I mean I think the one thing that like I got my attention was when a lot of the like leaders in AI like in the development of it that like pioneered a lot of the stuff where like, yeah, you may want to just we need we need to think about how quickly this is developing before it has like general intelligence and is able to teach itself like a human does.

And then you know, then they're like, think of just how much better bought based propaganda is going to be, and like it's like for purposes of like political messaging or these other things that we're still not sure like what it's going to do. That's what I'm oh, I can see that, but right now I'm just like what the fuck, Like it's passing this like it diagnosed a one one hundred thousand medical condition. And then they're like there's doctors being like it is pretty good at that.

It's just uh it's also kind of dumb too, but it's just sort of I think remarkable, like the amount of intelligence that's gonna just sort of bed readily available to people. Yeah, but yeah, I don't know. I mean that's why I'm like, I'm willing to be like, what's how what's it gonna do? Because I can I see that it can do a lot, But when will it be sort of like applied in that way? We're like, Oh,

this is absolutely fucked up. Has there ever been in the history of humanity a technological innovation where they were just like, that's progress, but that's too much progress, and we're just gonna like hold off for now. Like during World War Two, like they blamed a lot of the rise of fascism on the innovation of the loudspeaker. Yeah, Like the guy who invented the loudspeaker like blamed himself for the rise of Hitler. He was just so loud you couldn't about and he couldn't stop all kinds of

crazy points, but you couldn't shut it out. Like I'm just wondering, is like is there anything to be done other than just like work really hard to figure out how to use the AI to counter the propaganda that's being general well more than that too, right, it's like how much of it is done that It's we're actually looking at a future where if we're gonna get this kind of massive efficiency at this scale, like then what does that say about human labor? And what are we

pivoting too? Because you can already see people beginning to use it more and more. It's not quite getting to the levels or like whole departments are being replaced, but we see how capitalism works, like if they're like, oh yeah, I can slash budgets because I know three people that knows how you used chat GPT really well, that's where I'm like, are we actually figuring out where this is headed?

And superproducer Brian is now just saying he's like, what if if the AI is not aligned with human needs to begin with, That's where a lot of problems can begin to show themselves because it's you know, it's it's going to be able to like learn things like a human does. I think the scariest ramifications are gonna be like in the world of these deep fakes, and like

you're kind of already seeing it. It's like once deep fakes become you know, indistinguishable from reality, which is the naked I mean where you like a post reality, post truth world anyway, But like once deep fakes or to the point where you can't really discern if it's you know, generated or not, then it's like there's gonna be total chaos at some point. Yeah. Maybe the first thing will be like an AI version of like The War of

the World's radio play. Yeah, someone will release something to the Internet that you know, looks real and there's no way to tell it's not real, and think a long time or like a few days will pass before enough people. Yeah, it's not fucking roll my god, or political blackmail. You know, there's lots of fun stuff you could use it for. I was shocked that Trump didn't move quick enough to just claim the access Hollywood take is ye know what

that is a point? Yeah I heard it though, was He's gonna claim this is a deep fag Anyways, all right, let's take a quick break, we'll come back. We'll talk about gun control, and we're back. So, in response to the recent Nashville school shooting, which was the big shooting before the Louisville school shooting, Tag Cruise reintroduced his Securing Our Schools Act, which we'll call for cops in schools, which I'm assuming would be less fun than when Arnold

Schwarzenegger did it in the early nineties. Kindergarten cop. We can only hope, we can only hope that's what it's like. So that's best we've seen best case scenario. And imagine him like an LA public school Kimball, like, oh my god, when we're having a head asked but Ted Cruise. The plan is basically to fix mass shootings not with gun

control laws, but with more guns and police. And he used banks as an example of how we should be treating kids, because what kid wouldn't want to go learn to read and write in a bank vault like environment. So obviously, since the next big mass shooting was in a bank, everyone is publicly mocking Ted Cruise because just literally ten days after, he was like, we just need

to be more like banks, everyone. But this is all coming out at the same time as a report from Hugh and the CDC that says the gun death among US kids increased fifty percent between twenty nineteen and twenty twenty one. This is like massive, like it's shot up. And this is at a time when gun owner ship and just the amount of guns in US homes shot up. So gun deaths of all sorts are rising. Guns suicides

are way up because gun ownership is way up. And you know, as I've talked about numbers of times like guns cause suicides, like there's a one to one correlation between, like you're more likely to have a suicide in your

house if you have a gun in your house. Like this goes back to other like the British cold gas study, which I'm mocked for bringing up all the time, means reduction, means reduction exactly, and just taking the opportunity, Like suicides oftentimes are crimes of passion and crimes of opportunity committed

against oneself. But it's also you know, there's also plenty of evidence that that's true of homicides that like, you know, the homicides that we see in TV shows that are carefully plotted out the exception and usually it's somebody having the worst day of their life and having access to

a gun. There's also a bunch of like really troubling data that they are able to point at but not actually report about gun injuries from emergency rooms because the gun industry and gun lobbies have made it him pot Like they only have this data going back to like the late nineties because the gun industry has been making it almost impossible for them to collect data on gun injuries and gun deaths, you know, because they have massive amounts of money and that's what makes things happen, as

whoever has the most money, and the gun industry has way more money than the CDC. So we're working with limited data sets still, but it's pretty clear cut gun ownership causes gun death. It's really that simple. Gun ownership went up because the gun industry is constantly marketing itself to people and you know, making shitloads of money off of selling guns to people. It's the Homer Simpson beer quote guns the cause of and solution to all of

life's problems. And that's just kind of the loop we're in. And there's also another poll or like study that came out from the Kaiser Foundation that just talking about like the effect on people that all this gun violence has had. Like they talk about how one in five say they

have personally been threatened with a gun. Okay, like just one in five, right, one third of black adults and Hispanic adults, around thirty three percent say they worry either every day or almost every other day or almost every day about themselves or someone they love being a victim of gun violence, compared to one in ten and white

adults because the other thing is too. This also disproportionately affects communities of color, especially Black people, and one in five Black adults and Hispanic adults feel like gun related crimes, deaths, and injuries are a quote constant threat to their local community,

which and that is only around eight percent with white adults. Then, when you talk about like the effects it has on people's behaviors, right, eighty four percent of view of US adults say they have taken at least one precaution to protect themselves or their families from the possibility of gun violence, including talking to their kids or family about gun safety

or purchasing a weapon other than a gun. About a third thirty five percent of people said they've avoided large crowds such as music festivals or crowded bars and clubs to protect themselves or their families from the possibility of gun violence. Three and ten have purchased a gun to protect themselves or their family from the possibility of gun violence. Yeah, which is the one part of this that people can

make money off of. And in America, that's the one thing that gets emphasized and raised the surface and you know, put on steroids. Is whatever, the thing that money money can be made off of. And the purchase of guns as the solution to fear of guns. It seems to be the only option that people know of, that they're aware of. That really seems because everything else you're just told like, well, you can't take guns away from people because everybody will just flip out. But other countries, it's

worked in other countries before. There's no reason like it. It's going to take years and probably like massive changes, but it's it's happened before, and I don't see why. I know people who like grew up in the Midwest and the South, they're like, yeah, nice, like that, that's just you being ignorant. But I think everybody thought that in those other countries, and then you know, there was an event that was bad enough to change people's opinion. So yeah, well, based on how we problem solve in

this country. Once these stats are like ninety nine percent of people have been threatened with a gun. Maybe then something will happen because right now, especially when you look at the disparity between the threats of gun violence between certain populations, and you know, if that only eight percent are affected, but they're controlling, you know, eighty five percent

of the policy decision. Yeah, you understand why that, Like, there's just a complete disconnect from what the actual you know, threats to our safety are and their willingness to do it, because yeah, it's such it's so fucking cowardly to not even attempt to do something about it and just use the argument like, well, what are you gonna do? You know, I guess treated like a bank. Yeah, more guns, I

think is the everything that we just talked about. I think the answer is more guns or a RoboCop type scenario. I don't know, ask chat GPT what it thinks. Yeah, exactly, get get the AI in here. I'm a huge John Wick fan, but I have to take this opportunity to say that movies like the John Wick franchise they make guns look a little too cool. Yeah, gun food. You know what I mean, I got a new term for it. Yeah. I like how they're like, but here's a thing, man,

we don't use like blanks like on our sets. We don't even have to do that. I think is like the way they're they're They're like, we're a little bit more forward thinking for a film that is a ton of gun playing it right, put those in a post,

you know what I mean? All Right? And we have this Harvard McKenzie alum in San Francisco, who I think is part of another trend we're seeing, which is, oh yeah, wealthy, seemingly well intentioned upper class people showing their true colors and being insulated enough to be like what what I'm I'm just saying the clan was onto something. I didn't use the words clan, But come on, why am I being what? Now I'm being lynched just because I said

we should bring back lynchings. So yeah, this week's winner is Michelle Tandler, which sounds like a bizarro version of Michelle Tanner, like in Full House, if she grew up in another dimension and became this person, but she's currently living in Hell aka San Francisco in her mind, and she decided that Easter Sunday would be a great opportunity for her to go into full clan mode. She tweeted

this our society seems to have become seriously complacent. One hundred years ago, in San Francisco, people were publicly hung for their crimes, often by vigilante groups that wanted to send a message. The hangings worked. Crime would plummet after a few of them, often for many months at a time. A few questions on my mind this morning. What changed that the men of San Francisco went from creating vigilante groups to being afraid to even tweet about crime? And

what would happen if a few meth dealers were publicly hung. Well, that's an interesting idea, Michelle Handler. Hangings work. The hangings work. Say what you will, Say what you will? They work. I'm just saying I'm going off of just very anecdotal evidence because I'm reading the book Barbary Coast about the fucking gold Rush era in San Francisco, and I'm leaving out the context that these vigilante groups. Again we hate adjectives,

don't we, or we hate to be specific. You're talking about the Ku Klux Klan, and they rise to prominence in the Bay Area during this time and this is like in the beginning of the century, and so she like wanted to clear the fuck record, and she's like, I only brought it up because I read a book about stuff like lynchings and things and it worked in there, so I thought maybe it would be applicable here. Okay, she's what the fuck? Sorry? And again you're still not convinced,

because this is the wild thing. She kept doubling down, especially when other people were like, this is like, this is a disgusting take. Also like what are you even saying? Like and pointing out all the like the logical fallacies and what she's talking about. She goes down and say, quote, imagine this scenario. It's twelve thirty am and your dog woke you up because it needs to go to the bathroom. You walk outside and sleepily shuffle down the street and

your slippers. Suddenly you spot a man half naked with a comfort or draped over him stumbling out of the park toward you. What do you do? People's answer to that is going, what do I do? I don't know, I don't know. I think my first lives. There needs to be more public housing and programs for people that didn't go to Harvard. Yeah, you know, yeah, you shouldn't bring back public executetions for Harvard and mckinski alarms. Yes, you see that motherfucker like Republican donor who they just

renamed Harvard like school of Science after this motherfucker. Evil guys. That's like a top activity. They're all named after evil guys. It's just we have to keep doing it. It It would be weird if we use the good guy. And but that was like so wild, right, is like she assumes most people's first thought would be that, oh, yeah, this destitute person needs to get murk. Yeah, yeah, like or what or I don't know what? I don't that that's the example that she what's the proposy? Like what what?

What conclusion are we supposed to go? Like what do I do? I don't know. I mean like if you're fearful, then go back inside or something. But your local vigilante leader he'll deal with it. Call your local grand wizard and he'll wizard him away with his KKK powers, you know what I mean? Oh, or called lynching. So I don't know, like so like she again, she goes on and on. She then she went it's like, oh wow, I didn't realize my tweet would get such a great

such a stir check out my podcast. Yeah, no, guess what that's like. Her company is like some kind of like leadership at audio something, or rather it is. But yeah, she kept bringing up the hard left, and I guess she didn't realize that she was basically reading from the same script as other violent racists have in the past about like a call to arms. She'd be like, I mean, how long are we going to let these freed black

people just run amuck in our town? And then you get blinch mobs and shit, someone's got to do something right. And it's like it's just again, we've got another fed up person that thinks like the difficult discussion because she brings up She's like, people just don't want they'd rather virtual signal than have this difficult discussion. Like, so this difficult discussion in trying to solve a drug epidemic and the unhoused crisis, m is like about determining whether or

not they have the right to live. Right, this is the McKenzie mindset. This is what they're changing one hundred. Distill it down to a spreadsheet and figure out like, well, I'm looking at data lynch mobs worked in the past. Maybe that I'm looking at some graphs here and uh and I'm like yeah, and you're merely just pointing out a sequence of events. You're not necessarily being like, Yep, that's causation, and it's all there, we got it all.

And again it's like with the way these people think, we see it across the board when it comes to like these kinds of issues that are about, you know, having some empathy and also recognizing that maybe you have resources that could be shared better if if you're like

hyper wealthy. And I don't know how wealthy this person is, but it sounds like she's speaking for like the wanna be billionaire millionaire set around her, Like it's just such a zero sum game that like the thought of progressive taxes is so scary that the alternative is to debate not whether or not they should be giving more, but whether or not these are humans. They're like, fuck that, let's debate whether or not they should deserve to live. I'm not here to talk about taxes, moving to figure

out if they're people. First of Yeah, Mackenzie, it's good group, good good company, turning out top minds hitting you with the lynch mob takes like come fuck, on. But here we are. All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. And we're back. And so the new Super Mario Brothers bafo bo as we mentioned trending episode a couple days ago, and people are up in arms because it's anti woke oh or no. So so they're

celebrating because they like. Charlie Kirk says Mario Brothers just grows three hundred and seventy seven million dollars, a new record for animated features, despite John leg Wislamo boycotting the film because it messed up the inclusion casting two white men. Uh, that's a good Charlie Kirk voice. He does sound like that Nintendo refused to let Mario Brothers go woke. I've never heard him speak actually just and I assume he's

that most in his voice is so infuriating. He sounds like a guy who you're like, oh, you're a coward. Like I can hear it in the way you speak, like you go ahead. I was doing soft Ben Shapiro there, that was my he like, Charlie Kirk is just Ben Shapiro with tiny little teeth. Charlie Kirk's more like he's just waiting. No, no, no, no, we're not Stephen Crowder. The anti woke Super Mario Brothers movie just set a global record. They just like need a win. I guess

yeah what this is sad my favorite. This is so Jack Posobiac tweeted. The original creator of Mario Miyamoto, was heavily involved with the production of the animated film and insisted that it have as little plot as possible and just feel like one of the games. Okay, that's a cool fact. And then he second paragraph it has no woke narratives and all the characters are exactly like the original game. So somehom not having a a narrative is

a anti woke decision. That is just so funny, Like, clearly he's mis misinterpreting this quote where this guy she give a Miamoto is like, I think it'll have the most broad appeal if we get to the basics, which is to make it feel like the video game and not have a ton of plot that maybe people have to follow. And I just like that. They take that and go it's because he's anti woke. Come on, Miamoto,

bring it home. Um, this is all very funny because coming into the movie, the big narrative was the Mario movie was two woke because Princess Peach is a girl boss who saves the day and the movie features Mario Kart's Rainbow Road aka Pride Flag nonsense. Just when you thought the culture war couldn't get any stupider, Yeah, yeah,

here we go, baby, they're on it. Yeah. The the woman who I think it we're referencing this one woman who was like on her live stream talking about how like Princess Peaches causing like this, like you know, like boss bitch stuff. It's like it's gonna get women killed. They're gonna like into a cart of some kind and they will be speeding off down a road that's suspended in space somehow that's rainbow light. They're like, no, all

this like badass, bad bitch feminism. They're gonna start thinking, like you know, if if shit goes down, they're gonna think, oh, I can start fighting this guy, or I can handle you'reng you better find a red one so it knows it's seeking its enemy. I don't. I don't trust you with a loose green shell, and I don't know if your AIM's that good. But like that was like the whole. Like one of the takes was just like, yeah, women are gonna think that they are now John Wick, and

it's gonna get them killed. And this is the this is the future liberals want, folks. Yea, they want to kill women this way. Princess Peach, who is portrayed as a fierce leader that can and will defend her kingdom, next to her Summer saying that Mario, who seems to be just a normal guy at the start of the movie, is bumbling empathetic while Peach is a girl who saves

the day. That is something that like seemed evident from the trailer is that Mario is pathetic and like kind of they seem to be emphasizing that he was like kind of a dipshit Mario, you know what I mean, it's fun like that. I love that so that but yeah, so I can see how if this movie had tanked, they would have been all over the well, they just want to ruin our family values by making a man who gets beat up and a woman who's tough. Um, but of course it went the other way, and they

need a win. They need a culture win bad. So then are they now They're like, wait, it's gone woke now, like they're like, just like the whiplash of the takes now they're like, yeah, good for them, and they're like, wait, has anyone come back around to be like, actually, it turns out it is kind of woke, So never mind. I think they're no, I think they're just they were complaining it was woke before it came out and everyone

went to see it. But they are so desperate for a pop culture line in after after Ben Shapiro released his like three movies last year that made I think they broke a record for the least money made by like one of the movies that had um the Mma Fighter who got canceled. Yeah, they like they released a movie starring her and it made the least money that a movie has ever made that was like like in

movie theaters. And so they are desperate for any sort of cultural relevance, so they sit back, they wait to see how a movie does, and then they grafted their political opinions on the ones that do well. The Nintendo guys should should just fuck with these guys and just come out and just be like, totis trans I don't know, I don't know what I'll tell you you didn't get that from the movies. Yeah, trans you didn't know that. Oh wow, okay, I thought you guys were supporting that.

Now she's polyamorous ethically but polyamorous, yes, obviously obviously, but I guess. Yeah, it must be really hard to just like think, just take L after L and like the culture war that, like they really want to be like they just they so badly want like they're I mean, I don't know, fucking Avatar. You should be like Avatar and then go back to those colonial narratives like don't you like that? No, maybe not, I don't know. It's

about a guy who thinks he's he's trans species. It's all fu like, oh fuck off, please, that's why it was only the fourth biggest movie of all time. Jesus and them that they can't sing at the Bodyguard musical, great, this fucking rules. So there's a stage like you could tell me there's a stage musical adaptation of any movie and that it's good at this point, and I'm just like, yeah, that that totally makes sense. So there there is one

for the Bodyguard. It's apparently very popular. Uh, it's making the rounds in the UK at UK theater destinations and people are having a hard time not singing over the actors. Oh man, it's I didn't. This is so funny because there's another like viral thing like that was on TikTok recently about like people holding up signs at concerts and just like the general like, what is etiquette anymore at

a show? Like can you unfurl a gigantic banner that prevents people two rows behind you from singing the fucking stage? Or can you scream at the top of your lungs during a fucking musical because you want to? You think you can sing Whitney Houston the people in the fucking I think Peter should be more rowdy, So I'm actually supported these people. I think people should be unfurling banners at cats, Like get the fuck out of here, mister Mustopolis. I want the crowd. I want the crowd rounding it

up for theater. You know, we're gonna like one that's a sing along show for the professionally drunk. You know Shakespeare shows. Everyone was drunk, Everyone was rowdy. The rich guys were getting blow jobs up in the top things. It was a aunchy it was real, baby, bring people on the floor. Seats. They were doing their thing too. Yeah, the Orange Girls were selling sacks. I mean it was it was a sordid type of vibe. I say, bring it back. Have you seen the Do you see the

clip though? That like, how like how much of a fucking disruption this thing? I do want to feel like it's been described as a mini riot. I personally like, have you ever been at a concert and like been singing along and people kind of tell you to shut the fuck up? No? I mean it's been so loud that like possibly sing I get in a theater. That's different than being like an outdoor concert. Maybe they're just getting swept away. In the Bodyguard narrative, you have to

let these people be transported. It's called the willing, especially of disbelief. It's why we go to the theater. I got. I got shamed at a Radiohead concert in my twenties because like drunk at a Radiohead concert. What song? What song? Let's hear it. I don't remember which song it was. I just remember the person looking at me and just like giving the most like some stage yeah, like stage scoff not could you? Yeah? I believe they said something

directly to me couldn't couldn't help myself, that is. I mean the one time I've a like shamed somebody during like a performance was I was watching nine inch Nails and this guy was juggling like led ball like light up balls next to me. Yeah. I've mentioned this before, like the for so long. Yeah, that's like you're flinging, drawing, and I'm like, he's playing piggy right now. They don't do this. Live that off and put your fucking poise down,

you fucking herb. This is a rave. It was, and it was tight man, Like I wanted to get up close, like I had never seen them, and I've always wanted to see like, you know, nine inch nails, like you know, my like nineties kid thing, and like so we're like smushed up pretty close and this guy needs like elbow room to juggle these balls. I got to see how good he is a juggling. That's the main thing. That's what it was. Kind of wild, like I'm not joking, like this is what he looked like the whole show,

just watching the stage. He was just he was on so many he try to see him and and to like, you know, get up here, get up here, man, we're about to do like a whole for something to add to our show, and you got it. Man. What's your name? My name's Brent. Hey, give it up for Brent, everybody. Yeah, thank you so much. Man. I've been juggling for about

fifteen years. I'm really glad to be here. Yeah. There is something with people who like get locked into juggling, Like there's uh, when I used to run, there would be people who like did entire marathons while juggling the whole time for no real reason, like it's like knitting or something. You know, it's just their minds. But I think that is kind of like why, Like on some level, right, I think that's why it's kind of relatable when people

do sing at concerts. But then like there's that fine line between like this is so enjoyable for me and like I just want to feel like I'm connecting with like the music that I'm always just singing by myself or whatever. And then there are the people who I think are doing the thing. We're like, watch me fucking crush this, and everyone around me is going to be like, oh my god, you should actually be in the fucking play. I mean when I was singing at the Radiohead concert.

I did have my back to the stage and I was standing on the seats directly in front, projected really hard. I gotta hit the back of the room stop yelling. Is that I Will Always Love you so yeah, among others, but that was where it hit a if you hear that song when that fucking no kicks into overdrive, what are you not gonna try? I mean, come on, I don't know, and you're gonna try it? I would? I know, I've look, I've done it many times since since time immemorial.

I've been singing that song. But part of me knows I sing so like there's no way I could do it justice that at that point it is more enjoyable for me personally. It's more pleasurable to hear someone else sing it and I'll mouth along, but I don't need to be belting it out. That's that's my song in your heart? All right? Well this is in the UK, right, so that means everyone is hammered. We need get married. Yeah. They have intermissions at with Jen Bars Theater, so you

go and get more drunk, get intermission. That song is probably at the end. I don't know if the have anyone, no, just just I want to see it. I saw a glass menagerie in London and like it was the first time I've seen like theater in like London, and I was like, oh, this is cool. The amount of the amount of gin that was being drank free show and during the intermission, I was like, oh, I get why people with the intermission is designed to get more drunk.

That all British shows have an intermission, Like British stand up comedy shows have an intermission. Go re up, go re up real quick, right, yeah, exactly, So we gotta factor that into this. I think, are but are we as this are as Americans? If we were getting fucking shit hammered and then had this stuff go on, Like I wonder how like how violent Americans? You'd be worried

someone would shoot you. You know, You're like, you know nothing, nothing can stop a solo like a good guy with the gun, you know, as we as we all know said. Cruz has famously said, yeah, they don't have guns in England. No one's gonna get shot in there over this just really stern looks. It's wild though, that they brought the house lights up like it was the mic, that's wild. The actor playing Whitney Houston's role, they cut her, lights came up, The people who were singing in the crowd

were thrown out of the show. Who comes out to yell at you, like the director, like the stage manager with the clipboard, who they say out there, please They have signs up everywhere that's say, please refrain from singing along at this theater because it's just such a problem. Because that song is there's something about it that it just brings out your inner Whitney. I like that. Though. There used to be like riots, like in Turn of the Centry, New York, there were these famous riots over

plays because one actor was cast over another actor. So it was like back in the day, theater would inspire these passions people riding over a play. It was like a famous thing, like let's let's bring that back. Let's let theater get people stirred up again, you know, right right right. They used to riot over hats, Yeah, the straw hat riots. Maybe we just need to be rioting more, like, look, you they try to raise the retirement age one year,

the Frenches throw a flaming oil barrel through a cop car. Immediately, we need to get that French mindset. Yeah, oh man, Yeah, we're all too busy working. But maybe with the advent of AI, yeah, maybe these robot dogs can you know, light my workload a little bit. I can go throw a brick at a play. Your robot dog can take your actual dog for a walk at night, so you don't have to worry about being frightened somebody. Yeah, right, and the like. So that was clearly based on something

that happened to her. That was like the most terrifying thing. That's robot dog advocate. She's like the dogs ro robot dog for sure. Again, as long as I don't have to deal with it, I don't want to have anything. Look if I, if it's up to me, I would get rid of them all. I think it's kind of like how these people are thinking. And finally, uh, big news. You can order Domino's pizza with a touch of a

button while speeding down the street in an suv. They're introducing a new feature that will allow you to order pizza via Apple's car play display, so you don't even have to stop continuously burning fossil fuels while ordering greasy slabs of bread and cheese. Great dough we love the New Crust though, love I love the New Crust. Dude on your phone while you're driving, Like, what are we gaining here in functionality? Because too much of the distraction

but your computer screen up your car CarPlay is fucking dangerous. Yes, of course, look and I'm not trying to look. We put myself on blast. I'm way better at finding the music I need to on Spotify on my phone. Yeah, and I am on CarPlay and like I'm like, I'm like looking at it while trying to Yeah, it's very automatically takes over your thing and then you can't like

it's just a extra interface to get used to. Also, that means the pizza tracker will come up on your car computer through CarPlay, and you'll be too busy watching the pizza tracker go. You'd be like, oh, he's making it now, picking it up. You're gonna slamming something of you. The tragedy would be that you have a terrible accident with the delivery person pizza tracker on your car. They're like, poor bastard, he's fan. You'll never get together the lex Pepperoni.

It's being delivered to his house right now. Seen in a hundred times. Yeah. I mean people have expressed concern about Apple's car displays because they have the potential to distract drivers just as much as iPhones. One possible feature reportedly involves carplay's display being projected onto the windshield itself. What, Because the idea is, then you don't have to take your eyes off the road. You can just be distracted

by the thing, but by your actual windshield. Yeah, just the most shallow depth of field as you drive, You're like, I'm only literally looking at what's on my windshield now. I was an uber the other day and the guy just put on a movie on the iPad that he had right there, and I thought that was very bold. Well, he was driving. While he was driving, he pulled off and they just started the movie. It was die Hard too, And I was like, you know what, I'm gonna let

him rock. Yeah, let him cook? Did him cook? Let him Cook's like, you like the deep cuts, huh? He's like, yeah, all right, that dude with the icicle, come on, ye. When the cops come for that, they're gonna be confused. He's like handing this man, Carl, He's like handing you popcorn in the backs of the high school part. Dude, we did not talk. We did not talk. I just like silently nodded. I was like, I'm gonna let this happen.

We'll see where this goes. I remember I put a TV screen in my Honda Prelude when I was in college, and like in the most brute forced way, because I had been like pimp my ride, brained into being like, you know what, my dusty Prelude just needs a seven inch screen onto the DVD player, And though I'm not I would watch on the only DVD I kept on.

There was like disc two of season two of Arrested Development, and I was just watching Arrested Development like while driving, and I was like, what's like I was picking up people, was like a girl on a date and I was like, yeah, that's right there. She's like she gets like, pretty good episode, pretty good, and then she's like, it's hot in here.

I'm like, I can't actually access the air conditioning controlled because the screen has been drilled onto that part of the dashboard, So we're going to just have to roll the windows. Damn mom. But guess what you can get whatever you want a cheesecake. Fact. It is weird. The promotional video will link off to on the footnotes. It makes it seem like the So it's a father, a wife, and the passenger and two daughters in the back and they're waiting at a drive through and then they're like,

fuck this, let's order Dominoes. And the only way to do that, of course, is through the card car Play play right exactly. Stop waiting in line. It drive through is just a place and order. Use the Dominoes app on Apple car Play instead. Dominoes, Yes, and say goodbye to the drive through with every tap okay, which we get? Who kind of what's your pepperoni? Ah? Order carry out on the go using the Dominoes app now on Apple

car Play. No different than your phone. I don't know none at all, whatever, And like, if you're gonna be safe, you're not driving and ordering the fucking thing, so use your phone. There's a giant unforced error in the and the they edit it to make it seem like the driver is ordering it. Wild drive m edit to him ordering like making the specific order on his car. You

were like, wait, what do you want? Showing like the features of it, but I'm like, other, fuck are your head is turned all the way around talking to your kids back there and being like oh what no, okay, okay, the fuck he's gonna kill that biker. His wife is in the passenger seat the whole time, like it seems like she should be able to yeah. Um, but and he isn't an suv, so if he hit somebody hit that biker that there'd be almost no chance of survival.

But and he's in the cop Ford Explorer. Too great is the cop Explore? Yeah, White one of those guys behind Come on man, all right, well, Carl, truly a pleasure, you know, glad we got to the Domino story with a foodie like yourself. I'm glad we got to the I'm A story.
