I'm so excited to be unbanned from Twitter as Trump is getting indicted. Oh, I was like, I couldn't log in for it was a whole two factor. Elon, I'm worried about him, but I'm gonna back in. They tried to keep me out, but I just kept coming back.

Oh wait, so you weren't like banned because you did some like they No, they I had two factors like authentication issues, like separate and I was like, hey, can you help me? And then they were like, you're permanently banned, and I was like, I just asked for help, like I'm never doing that again, you know. But then they started responding and I was like, okay, you know, because I know people who have been hacked and have like never haven't gone back in. You know, our friend Demi

Yeah, but you can do like disappearing password things. You're an authenticator. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got offee or one of those other authentic password Yeah, yep, yep, yep. How are you feeling today? Obviously you like the news of love. The news in my place is being fumigated, just like Trump is. So I'm over at my neighbors.

My neighbor has like a million squeaky toys for her dogs. So if you hear that in the background, that's my dogs like going ape shit. Their pupils are fully dilated off of these. They're like, what is on there? I'm like, it's crazy. There's like a pickle rick here. I don't know what's happening. Oh wow. But yeah, so I'm good. I'm excited. I'm excited for our guests. Yes, I'm excited for our guests too, because last time she was on, I went on a bit of a ski in care journey,

Which season two is dropping, uh this April twelfth, that's two wednesdays from now, the day I guess I was gonna try and make some kind of make it relate to the day Trump his arrangement. Don't worry about it. Season two is dropping April twelfth. Get in and look, guess what. She's a skin therapist, she's a makeup or

she's just basically Atlanta has Atlanta's best skin. I'm just go ahead and say it. Please, welcome to the microphone, miss Carmen Larn Thank you so much. That is a huge skin yo. After I'm no bullshit. After you're on and we were talking about skin care's like, okay, yeah, I gotta I can. I can drink water, get my shit right by staying hydrated more, but also started using a moisturize you know what I mean with some SPF. Okay, because before I was on this, I'm black and Asian.

I'm fucking I don't need to dude ship. But part of me is like if I'm trying to go like Pharrell speed, you know, I gotta I gotta have some moisturizing. I gotta have some SPF. So thank you I didn't invest in that yet, so I'll credit you with that karma. You're the only dad that's gonna be younger after the child was born. You know, I start reversing. Yeah, yeah, Obama, I got my kid off at school, and they're like, in,

is your little brother coming in? Wait until you hear about this can care they're doing with like placenta these days. Oh shit, Oh, I mean I feel like, but aren't there placenta cream already? There are? Yeah? Yeah, no, j Low has already harvested all of that ship. There's no horse, placenta horse. People don't know. That's what Nick Cannon all them kids are for. Because you got a placenta cream business going. And he's like, I gotta keep it in

the family, keep it in. Oh my god, that was hot, larious. How are you karming? What's new with you? I'm doing well as well as I can be in this these crazy times we're in this, Yeah, very violent places we call America, absolutely, and I live in I live in Atlanta, which is one of the better places to be trans in the South, but being trans in the South is still,

you know, challenging. That being said beauty translated, which is kind of all about being trans and in the South and all of that and related from my perspective as a skin through our pist. Season two comes out April twelfth, and we are going to be featuring one of the authors of my favorite books, which is Whipping Girl, and her name is Julius Serrano. So I'm very excited about that. I'm excited for you, excited for the audience. Please check

out Karmen's show if you haven't already. It's really great and I guess let's we're gonna get to know you a little bit better, Karmen. But first we're gonna tell our listeners what we're gonna talk about. We already told you Trump indited, thirty four cows World excited, But we'll tell you what all the fucking freaks and weirdos are saying what this may or may not do, because we

just still don't know. We're still in that phase. You're like, Okay, we took a step forward, but then where will it lead? So we're probably going to spend most of the episode just examining all of the happenings because my god, it's like he like with that an indictment announcement he just kicked over like an anti black, anti Semitic like Hornet's

nest that just exploded on the far right. And then if we have time, maybe we'll get to just to wrap up the Gwyneth Paltrow case, to just talk about the iconic moment and just how lucky we are to not have to see, as someone put on the internet, the whitest trial of the century. I wish her well advertisement, Yeah, exactly, that Goop advertisement because of what that Yeah, I mean, good for her. You already know like next week there's gonna be a like an innocence line or like you know,

accountability line or some shit like that Goop Guilty. There's no way her outfits aren't going to be a Halloween costume next year. Like there's no way with those glasses, yeah yeah, Gucci, Yeah, like serving cunt getting in the ski track, but like couture Jeffrey Dahmer or some shit like that blind here and shit. Anyway, we'll talk all about that first. Carmen Laurent, what is something from your searchers history that is revealing about who you are, what

you're into right now? It was very subtle, y thank you, Thank You's her story much. This is a bit of her story here for you. Actually. Okay, yeah, so I've been if anyone knows anything about me, I love to look into trans history. Trans history is like I reflect on a lot of the things from my upbringing as a trans teenager and a trans child. And so in two thousand and eight, there was a show that you probably never heard of, but I was recently googling it.

I'm sorry, it was two thousand and ten. I was recently googling it. It's a show called trans Capital t R A n S form Me and it was my first introduction to Laverne Cox and Jamie Clayton. And I was just reflecting on that because I was like remembering, you know, seeing that on TV back in twenty ten

and being like, holy shit, this is major. And it never went past one season, but it was essentially it was essentially a queer eye for the straight guy, but it was trans women making over sis women as like a concept, which you know, yeah, I love that, and so did that kind of was when did when did Laverne really start popping off? And Jane like was did this kind of set them up? Yeah? That was kind of there. That was both of their like they're jumping

off points. Um Nina Poon was the third woman who was in that and she we haven't seen a whole lot from her much more these days. But like Jamie Clayton, I want to say, for Laverne Cox after that, like the next big thing would have been um in two thousand and twelve, I think was when she started Weren't just a New Black right? Right? Oh yeah? Yeah, and Laverne and Jamie we're both in Disclosure, which was really

good that doc. Yes, about trans influence and culture and everything. Yeah, transfers. Yeah, absolutely, very good talk. Yeah, this especially because what Friday was Trans Day of Visibility, right, yes, and actually all my over I'm sorry to do this, but yeah, all my search history is all related to trans Day of No. Absolutely, we're recording it on trans Day of Visibility to let people for all of those sis heteros out there who call themselves out, your search heurstory should be too. Yeah,

let me see your search story. Yeah, what is something you think is overrated? Karen? Okay, So this is something I've been reflecting on. You know, I've reflected on it for a long time. But today is trans Day of Visibility. And so something I I thought, you know, that's important to talk about right now is how visibility without protection be kind of kind of overrated and in the sense that,

like you know, visibility is ever a bad thing. But what what's happening now is like we've got trans visibility like at an all time high. You know, we've got more trans role models to look to than we've ever had before, which is a fantastic thing. But unfortunately we also have anti trans hate and anti trans legislation also

at an all time hide coinciding with that. So it's really today as a really conflicting day for me because I pay the bills being trans invisible and it's not something that everyone can do safely, and you know, can be visibly trans safely. So it's it's a it's a

double edged sword, as we like to call it. Yeah, And I was just reading piece I think it's Fox or something, just sort of confronting the bias like in legacy media of you know, the lack of people who actually are have the the viewpoint or perspective to support trans people and that's a huge gaping hole. Like to your point, the visibility may be in like elevating certain people and giving them a platform. But there's another piece to that, which is what is the entirety of our

culture doing to support that? Like, are we actually, like is the mainstream media take to defend the rights of transpeople and not have them relegated to second class citizenhood or non humanhood or is it just a kind of like report and like throw your hands up, like and like that's kind of what's going on there, rather than forcefully understanding that, like, this is a very very serious issue that you know, is part and parcel of our

like slow slip into a very dark place. And if we're just able to cast people aside because we don't have a connection to that community or we don't think it's going to affect us, it's going to be only at our own detriment in the long run. So yeah, totally totally feel that. I also think, like, I mean, what you said was so true, is that being visible

without protection means that you're a target. You know, like that's not something that I think has meaningful effects on individuals who are in classes where they can't afford protection, they don't have they can't you know, you know, have that the ability to exist also I mean, I feel like it's happening very fast right now, you know in all of these states, like all of this anti trans legislation and anti queer legislation is happening so incredibly quickly.

I'm seeing it. I think yesterday or today Kentucky passed a law about trans kids in schools with the bathrooms and everything. It's like every other day basically now. Yeah, it's so shocking, and I think what's really frustrating. Like I did a stand up show and I talked about being queer, about being by and there was like this this four group of four people and they were from like North Carolina and South Carolina. And usually in LA you're like I'm queer, like and the crowd goes wild.

They're like said it and they were like visibly uncomfortable, and I'm like, are you allies? And they kind of like shook their head. They were like no, like we don't know, like we don't want to talk about this. And I was like shocking to see in LA, but to see people like to see people who aren't affect did just like be very uncomfortable, like I don't think it's framed to them, like if you don't allow trans

people to exist. It's a genocide. Like I don't think they understand that, like blood is on their hands, you know, like this is medically proven. So if you are like no, people who are feeling I feel like all of the listeners here probably feel pretty strongly about it. But if you know people who are feeling very ambiguous about it like that, I feel like the media also, you know, they not only do they throw their hands up, they go the other direction. They like frame it as a

trans problem. So there's like a lot of work to be done in all of these communities, especially where it's not the coastal elites, you know, absolutely, yeah, yeah, absolutely yeah. And it's just like even I mean for people who if you know someone who's like, oh am I an ally, it's like I just you know, clear the slate for

a second. If just imagine, you know, you have to have the ability to really put yourself in other people's shoes to really understand the severity of it, because the idea like that just merely you trying to represent your true authentic self is going to invite violence is a terrifying fucking thought should be for any person, any person you know, what I mean, like and yeah, to divorce yourself from that threat and be like, well, that's not

really my problem means like you're essentially you're throwing your hands up and say, look, I'm pro terror for these groups that because I don't have a connection to it. And that's a really big problem we have in the US, which is like people don't get their ship together till the ship comes to their doorstep, and half the time they don't even figure it out when it does. Case some point, like even that governor in Tennessee who knew two of the victims in the school shooting and still

was like, yeah, I don't gun control. I'm not gonna say that out loud, though, like yeah, come the fuck on, Like that is so insane to me. What shows I mean, what people do in service of wanting to stay in power, and you know how they've completely seeded their own like humanity in service of just being able to be the most popular guy in Tennessee. Basically, Carmen, what anything is underrated?

So I'm going to talk about something that has been on my mind recently because I've recently, I've recently started taking more and it's improved me so Estrogen is my underrated today. All Right, Estrogen gets a lot of it gets a bad name, okay, because you know it can increase your risk for blood clots and breast cancer and all of that. Yes, those are all things you should

be concerned about. But on the flip side, I've been taking estrogen for more than I want to say, like twelve years now, thirteen years now, and it has changed my life for the better in so many ways. And I just recently found out from a check up with my doctor that my estrogen levels were extremely low, and it kind of made sense because I was feeling very

depressed and all of that. So I've been taking more for the past several weeks now, and it's really like kicking in and I'm like, oh, yeah, I forgot how much I fucking love when that estrogen is hitting. Yeah. Wait, so I mean I'm complete. This is a very foreign experience to me. So, like, what does it feel like when you are Obviously you don't feel like yourself, but in what way what's that difference between when you are

and are not well? Yeah, it's like a it's like a well in the sense of being trans It's like a sense of feeling detached from your body. So when I see my body, you know, maybe not being not feminizing as much as I want, or masculinizing in a direction that I don't want it to. You know, that can make it feel, you know, uncomfortable to be in my body. So sure the solution of that is just take more. And it's helped in a lot of ways. I mean, it helps with your mood, it helps with

your sleep, your skin. I mean, it's required for bone density, it's required to form collagen. You know. So estrogen does a lot that I think, you know, people take for granted.

Sometimes I didn't realize it was sort of contentious because you sort of started it off by saying, like, look, I know that there are certain health risks attached to it, but yeah, okay, yeah, I feel like there are health risks with everything though, Like it's very individualized, right, Like and hormones and like neurotransmitters, antidepressants, hormones, like all of these things that travel through our bloodstream have such like profound effects on like so many different systems, and like

it's very it can be like very beneficial, you know, like it can it can help overall with like so many different aspects of your physiology. Yeah see, thank you come through with the fucking straight up medical biological science. Thank you. You're fucking weirdos. I got all the facts here. All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be right back to do a little light celebrating and a little bit of heavy laughing at this man called whatever Trump or whatever. Okay, we'll be right now and we're

back trumpety thirty four counts. World excited. Now. We don't know if it's exactly thirty four counts. I don't think it's been unsealed, but that's what sources who know have been leaking that number. That is three four counts right now, and the day has finally come, the one that apparently, like Trump thought would never come. But hey, here we are. So this is in connection. This is in New York, This in connection with the Stormy Daniels hush money case.

And you should be noted this is by far the weakest case against Trump right now in terms of like the severity of charges and how defensable the charges are. So before you start, you know, popping off and shit like that, just know this isn't done and dusted. So I'm gonna go ahead and say this, This won't be the thing that puts Trump in jail if at all.

And I only say that because I'm only looking at the strength of history behind it, where criminalized presidents just don't fucking criminal powerful people just do not typically see justice. But there is also something I was hearing from some like legal people were saying that because he he has a lifelong Secret Service protection from being a former president, that that could complicate like the form of confinement that

he would have to go under. So it's like, I don't know if like he's gonna have secret Service with him like in the yard, like in the pen or anything like that, or if it's something like they said, more likely to be like house arrest and like the Secret Service acts as his you know, jailers or whatever. Anyone's like white house arrest. Yeah, oh I know, I know. So he look he's doing ah, you know, uh, he's right now, He's just he's standing by and stand standing back.

But again, we will see what happens in that very specific way. However, it is good to see that we are seeing an actual fucking indictment because this is a first. But I'll tell you this What will happen is this dude is going to be arraigned on Tuesday, assuming that he doesn't, you know, become a fugitive, which it sounds like his lawyer said, he's willing to turn himself in and that's probably the better way to go unless you're trying to you really think this is some wild West shit.

But I don't feel like he can run that fast, you know what I mean? No, but he'll be the thing is that come and get me Maga Smurfs assemble and fight the Feds, and I'm like, and then when only like fifteen people show up, he's been like a fuck. But anyway, he is getting arraigned. He is gonna have to go in front of a judge like a fucking normy,

and then he's gonna have his prince taken. He's gonna have his little mug shot take in just like a loser, normal ass citizen would rather than you know, Orange god boy. So let's talk about the reactions to the indictment, since that's the one thing we can actually look at and talk about. Yes, wait, can I say before we get into this, what you were talking about, how like he

is unlikely to actually like go to prison. Off of this, there's a tweet from twenty sixteen October first from at Bronze Hammer that was like, that's been being reposted a lot right now. That's like, well, I'd like to see old Donnie Trump wriggle his way out of this jam. Trump wriggles his way out of the jam easily. Ah. Well, nevertheless, that's what it feels like like it's gonna happen. It's like he's gonna find some way, even like house arrest.

It's gonna be in like what a mansion, you know? Yeah, I mean I don't know exactly. And we'll see even you know, his lawyers right now, and Joe Tacopina is like, oh, these are like they're trying to enforce federal election laws in a New York you know, in a New York court and blah blah blah. So we'll see what the defense looks like. But I'd imagine that they feel like they have some kind of case, and clearly the jury felt there was enough there to indict him, so we'll

go from there. And I think keep in mind too, for all the talk of like this is overblown or whatever. Michael Cohen, his ass went to jail in connection with all this shit this is about. So they determined that his actions were illegal in that case. And if Trump was the one giving the orders, and how the fuck you're gonna act like anyway, I'm sure he'll find a way.

This is like OJ being caught for the Jerseys, you know what I mean, We're gonna get him on something, Yeah, like when he kidn or like the guy who had his heisman. Didn't he like trying and kidnap that guy or something? Where is that the Jersey thing? He was trying to steal his like his merch back basically in Vegas from this dude's hotel song. And you know, to that, to that point, a lot of the people in Trump's camp are saying, like this trial has to be OJ

on steroids. I think was the phrase that was used to try and create as much of a spectacle as possible. Oh yeah, So first up, Trump was apparently caught the fuck off guard by this, like he thought it would take weeks for something like this to happen, or it didn't even think it might even happen at all, because you know, privileged as motherfucker. So once that sort of, you know, the shock subsided and someone gave him a

few loose Big Max. He basically hopped on the phone and began his quote unquote defense, which is to basically attack and degrade Alvin Bragg. And you know, just the rule of law in general was just something they love to evoke so much. So first I want to play this. This is just a little bit of schadenfreude. This is Fox News the second they announced that Donald Trump was indicted. And just listen closely because you can hear the fucking

the gasps. This is so amazing. Huh. This is Fox News announcing that Donald This is like the break the moment they break news to tell you that he's been indicted. Here, we have just gotten word. Former President Donald Trump has been indicted by a grand jury in New York. Trump was under investigation by one more time, we have just gotten word former President Donald Trump has been indicted by a grand jurk. That is so funny, y'all. Dumb motherfucker's

really never no, really, he's been held to account. Okay, so we had that. That's how they started things. Soon after, Jesse Waters said that this indictment was a quote disgrace, adding that quote no one wanted this, not even the left wanted this. Bitch, who are you talking to on

the left. He's like, there for abolition, which I also support, Yeah, in this very narrow context for him, but yeah, this is again like, so we started, like, first, I think it's funny to watch the pundits try and figure out what, like the line they were supposed to tell was, because first just like, this is unbelievable, and then they started coalescing around sort of this more consistent theme, which we'll

get to. But he also was like, he's like, this is actually gonna help Trump, and so like the Democrats, the Democrats actually did this because they think it's eat like it'll make him easier to beat or whatever. I don't know what the fuck they're talking about, but there's some real mind twisting going on. Greg Gutfeld, who has one of the top shows in late night, The Median Extraordinariy, Greg who was still constantly looking for writers in case anyone on this team wants to submit for his show.

Oh really up on like writing opportunities and I'm like, oh, I could get such a bag. Well, you know what's funny? His writer's room is fucking up, because there were six hours in between when the indictment was announced and when he went to air, and he didn't have anything on it. They just went like their main story was whatever the fuck they had already pre written, was pro sports teams having like like Pride Nights and the like at the venues.

You're like Jurassic Park. They're like, if we don't look it in the eyes, it's not happening, you know. I think that. I don't know if they're yeah, or they're just like they're just not nimble writers, Like what do we do? What do we say? It's bad? Right? But Gutfeld just kind of went on the only thing he said, He's like, this is actually really good for Trump, you know, because like it basically guarantees his nomination and his mug shot is going to probably be a campaign poster. Oh

that's true. You know I could see that happening. God. Yeah, But I'm saying at this point, I guess, I mean, you have to actually you're gonna have to feel the election, you know, pretty hardcore if your whole thing is like, we're only going to appeal to people who think that certain people are above the law in the context of like your political allegiances. But I'm sure it'll circle back to something because the economy's tight, and he'll find some

kind of fake populist message to act like. He's like, this actually makes me the most like man of the people candidate fucking ever. I actually heard his new campaign manager is the Hamburglers, So he's leaning hard into the criminal aspect of it, and the fucking and the two dudes from the Cookie Crisp Was it Cookie Crisp also like Burglar Asses? I think so, I'm trying to remember, Okay, hold on, because what was the one that had like

two like English cops or whatever. I'm completely fucking misremembering all this anyway, zeking right in what cereal? I'm trying to remember when it was like those two like bobbies that were the loco Tucker Carlson. Meanwhile, he said this could be the start of the purge. He's like, the rule of law appears to be suspended tonight, not just for Trump but for anyone who would consider voting for him. This is what it seems to be. It is a political purge that sounds like if Tucker Carlson and Ben

Shapiro had a baby. That's like what you decided? Oh yeah, yeah yeah, I mean Ben is like, well, this is this is absolutely this is absolutely ridiculous. If you have you actually this should never be happening. And in a country that where that we're supposedly the leaders of democracy, we're not going to really be sitting an example for the other nations like Russia and China that are basically going to make a mockery of everything that's happening here

for that. And my pussy is dry. I'm sorry lap here. Yeah it's dap. Yeah, I turn I turned the lap to dap on that, but dap it up one time, Ben Shapiro oppression. And then so do you know who fucking Tucker Carlson had on as his guest for this monumental occasion to talk about it. Fucking Adam Corolla. Bro, I can't, I cannot. These days, I've got shows with him. It makes sense. Yeah, yeah, he still performs at some clubs that I perform at. Wow. Yeah, it's when I

saw said, I was like, yeah, this makes sense. Yeah it was. It made a Kimmel and it made a Corolla. Yeah. I just love how that literally caused like a split, and Kimmel went left. He goes right, and here we are. But Adam Carolla he was saying again, he's like, this is all political theater, you know, just to bait more Trump supporters into protesting so they can be arrested. So he's claimed a honeypot operation to get more people caught up. I thought it was Antifa though, So he's saying that

they will commit violence. That's like, they're gonna be violent, so you're gonna get you're just trying to trigger them, right right, right exactly. You know they're gonna be vine, I mean, and then that's all they're trying to do. It's political theater for people to just and I and and that is obviously a huge concern, and we'll talk

about that a little more. He also claimed that there's like a religious angle to Trump's arrest because the left is a religion and Trump is Satan, so you gotta get it was very like I think even the audience had trouble following very We didn't all leave our churches and temples as teenagers and argue with our families over thanksgivings. For us to be called a religion, fuck you. We're a bunch of heathens, and we stand by that. We

don't even say bless you when you sneeze. Motherfuckers. Yeah, yeah, when I hear when I hear someone sneeze, I say, what the fuck? I say? Thanks science, you know what I mean? Yeah? Yeah, Do you ever use that trick to look in the sun to sneeze? No? Does that trigger sneeze for you? Don't do that. Oh, if I'm on the edge of his knees, I could look straight up at the sun and it fucking brings it right on out that I do that to break to our

Lord and Savior, Donald Trump. So because he also looks at the sun, har Lord and Savior Apollo from the Apollo Capital Investment Group, And so I also want to touch Sean Hannity. Uh. He was also, oh, I should say this. At the end of Tucker Carlson's show, he

said some wild shit. He made this off handed comment, like under his breath but clearly audible, where he was like, yeah, might not be the best time to give up your ar fifteen And can I just say about that too, Like, I mean, he's been recently, there's been a lot of Tucker Carlson stuff where he's been talking about trans people with R fifteens. Yeah, and then in relation yeah to the Nationale shooting and all of that, they're now like

proposing no guns for trans specifically. Yeah, so you're admitting their people. Well, I mean, it's it's all just fucking cruelty for cruelty's sake, because again, I think the like to get to like the attacks on the LGBTQ community is because the Republicans cannot fucking do battle with anyone

at their level. They get smashed out. So the only people they can go they have to push the Week around because that's the only people they can And I say Week more in the sense of like marginalized or the lack of support from mainstream culture that that's sort of the way that they're eking out their victories because they're taking els in every other arena. They're like, yeah, but I guess, well, we just restricted the ability for

these people to be happy, So that's cool, right base. Yeah, I just like I don't think that they have an endgame because it's also short term, Like they don't care about the environment, they don't care about like people dying, they don't care about human rights because they all just want, like within their lifetime for their careers to be extended

and for them to be wealthy. And I'm also like I feel like if they had just become an influencer, like it would be easier, you know what I mean, Like there are other less stressful ways to get the bag, dude, like just starting Only fans, like you're like, you know what I mean, like already showing your ass on TV do something or with ethics, you know, are so fascist? Only fans is one that I'm scared of. No, that's those TikTok women who were like doing the housewives bit

where they're like the trad wife thing. Oh yeah, that's like people are like, oh that's like a fetish, you know. And I'm like like fuck yeah, Like get your bag, you know, like get your bag and then just keep your bag there and don't give any political movements, don't

use it to buy guns, you know. Yeah. His Trump's little infant son, Donnie Junior, decided to use some Colombian inspiration fuel to go on his like live stream and then he just like rattled off a bunch of dictators to make some because like you know, pol pot um fucking dut Hitler Stalin and you're like, what dude, and he's like and Trump and Trump. This would make them roll over in their graves because they wouldn't believe how

authoritarian this place has come. But meanwhile, pretty much all of the Republicans have fallen into line to come to the defense of their Orange stepfather and using their favorite tool to do so, my buddy anti black racism and his cousin anti semitism, because they are all doing some combination. You're hearing this on Fox NonStop right now. I was up all night with the bait with the Geist child. He was a little fussy. I think he was excited

to hear about the Stumps shit. So we were just watching the news and I would look, I'm watching Fox like Jesus guist okay of na Nazar trends. But they're all doing some combination of dehumanizing language for d da Alvin Bragg, which is like he's a thug or he's an animal or some shit like that, and then evoking the anti semitism part by and he's a George Soros funded thug man uh to completely basically I mean this, I guess do their dog and it's not even a

whistle at this point. It's dog full voice screaming at this point. But yeah, they're just trying to you know, Pitt. They're saying, the black guy and the Jewish guy hate Trump, you see, guys, that's who the end to me is. Yeah, because he's anti black and anti Semitics. That's why they would hate. Although, hey, I love my blacks, including the two tokens I pay to stand behind me at every rally. Thanks so much. I will be paying your hair relax

her bills. You voice four. And here in Georgia, you know, we've got the one that Fanny Wallace is working right now, and she's a black woman. I just I'm like just thinking about when he gets indited here, yeah, the black woman. Where that's gonna happen, like already, because we already know how his his you know, his rage for women of color.

But anyway, Hannity did the smart thing and he had two black guys on his show to go after all, and so I just want to play this moment where he's I don't know who the fuck these these people are, but this one old dude just goes He's like he gets the crowd going, and then they they pan to a crowd shot. I just want you to watch this whole clip because like there's an audience cheering, but I want you to really pay attention to like the audience. Dude.

It's a very weird moment. I got news we. Every every second time I have I'll donate and I'll get news we Alvin Bragg. After we defeat this lawsuit, we're gona filling some rights lawsuit a gift you for malicious prosecution. Than Oh god, I'm so uncomfortable. Who is this man? Who is this? This the enthused? It's such a weird like there are people that looks like a bunch of like over excited white dudes. Yeah exactly, and jk rowling

to the side too. But yeah, so again, this is just we're seeing them all kind of unify around this message. Alvin Bragg has gone too far because he's prosecuting people

that are committing crimes. Even Ron De santiss As couldn't resist getting self tanner all over his mouth and said that he would not even extra DT if the Feds wanted him too, which really isn't a thing, but it sounds provocative and like so many Republicans right now who are trying to run for president are looking at a moment where you know, you could fucking maybe turn your back,

but they have opted out. And you know, I think it's as if they believe that powerful white guys should be above the law, which is like maybe unifying them. And I mean, they're they're genuine shock. Seems to really indicate as much because they say things like, oh, really for a for like a for a federal elections thing. That's obscene, Like you're saying that you shouldn't that you can break the law in that instance. It's a very

very we're in a very sticky situation. And all this is not great for people that hope to see like less violent fuckery around Trump's lies, because right now, like Manhattan is being like fortified as they prepare for Trump to turn him turn himself in, and you know, they're already having to like assess like the dozens ofts that are starting to come in, especially against the DA. So it's clear he's trying to do like a January sixth style ramp up of misinformation to try and inspire some

kind of violent confrontation. But where yet to see exactly what kind of appetite there is for this. Like I know Marjorie Taylor Green is trying to start to kick things off. She's like, I'm going down. I'm going to New York to protest. You believe me. I'll be there Tuesday. But I don't know if that's enough time for all the dark money groups to you know, coordinate air travel and buses for their acolytes to be behind them. You gave us so much information and it was also valuable

in such a great perspective. And what I have to add is that Alvin Bragg is such a Gotham daass name, and I love it. They're shutting down to the island of Manhattan as Alvin Bragg goes after the city's biggest joker. Yeah, the countries, right, Yeah. People have said that this is

another thing too. You go to like MSNBC. I was watching all the news channels last night and it was wild how they're all around the clock with it, and some people look so fucking tired because it's like three thirty or four in the morning, and like Pundit's like, yeah, so we're gonna keep saying the same five things over and over for hours. But one thing that a few people said, like, this is a somber day. You know, this is the first time a former president has been

indicted for crimes. And and I'm like, but every fucking president is a crook and as a basic gass level war crime, like war crimer. So those people were sad when the queen died. Fuck that. Yeah right, No, of course they were. It's a somber day for us who believe that ascending to certain offices of power make you superhuman and therefore you can commit like untold transgressions against

untold amounts of people. You just know that George Bush is just like having it such a field day with getting away with his war crimes, like you should have. It's like that dude should have painted after he lets Yeah exactly, He's like, hey, you know, I'm just he's probably just he's probably in a field right now, like

pain like finger painting Abu grave. He's like, I got away with it too, you know, like I know, yeah when he signs all of his like paintings with a palm print on the back because he can't write, oh my god, like a little doggie. Yeah, like your preschool project. You're humanizing him. Now you have to feel bad and fantializing him, yet him start a little how a would your weapons of mass distruction? By your weapons? God? And

what a dark world? Because honestly, it's like all we can do is laugh at the hopelessness over the like millions of lives are completely upended by that fucking war.

But you know, if they're if you're like a normal everyday person, this was sort of upsetting, right, Like you will get thrown in jail and even killed by law enforcement for less, and it's about like for me, I'm like, it's about fucking time there's some at least demonstration that there can be accountability, although I don't know what level it will get to, so I will save my celebrations when shit actually gets real and we are hearing like

guilty verdicts and things like that and see where that goes. But it's again, I'm like, it's with bated breath, I will I will say, though it is heartening, is nice to at least see that shit going to this point. Yeah, it's like seeing a cop actually getting indicted or like you know try yeah, well, because like all the time we're like, you know, exactly like, it's like seeing shit on video and you're like, that is a fucking crime. I don't even I don't that's a crime. And now

we're at least again maybe seeing it happen here. But the thing is he's already he's already got two trials happening this year. He's about he has two civil trials he's facing. One is a two hundred and fifty million dollar fraud case in New York civil trial, and then eg and Carroll's defamation case around her alleged the rape that she's accusing him of. So the first one, I think the two hundred fifty million dollar fraud caves starts

in October, and then the defamation cases in April. So Jan is doing more hours than I am this year. That's crazy. He is booked and busy. Okay, I need his agent, Yeah, you need his terrible lawyers and aggressive. Like here you see me doing the Giuliani tour, You're like, what the fuck? Please don't have fake hair though that you sweat out like in the press conference. But if I wiped it off right now and you were like, what the fuck? No, he was doing drag when he

did that. That was drag. Oh yeah, I love that so much. Oh my god, that's so funny. That was good Southern drag too, Like this even thing about like you know when you talk about accountability for presidents, right, like we let Nixon off the hook, and that that definitely emboldened Reagan to go iran contrat the fuck up and he was like, man, what the fuck are they

gonna do? You know, now, I think we're just we're seeing that momentum carry on to its logical endpoint or not endpoint, but where we are today in the form of Trump, who's only seen these other examples of like, yeah, you can get away with shit, like if you get to this point, yeah you can, you can fuck around like whatever. So, like I said, it's the weakest case against him when you look at what is being investigated, like you said, Carmen in Georgia and what the DOJ

is doing with their special counsel. So we'll see, yeah, what happens and how long it takes for legal jeopardy, his legal jeopardy to ramp up exponentially. But for now we got yeah, tape, that's on tape too. But can you imagine us like the most tedious jeopardy. You know what I mean, so monotone, I don't know the laws. Yeah, what is the jurisprudence in regards to bail? I'm just

I'm just regurgitating, that's your answer. No, that was like, that was this prompt like a judge in India gave to chat GPT to to figure out if someone deserved bail. Oh really yeah that GPD say like it just arrests all my overlords or what? Yeah, right, No, it was it just basically it was like looking up Wikipedia. It just sort of like recited the law back to you. I knew the entire legal system was based on Wikipedia. I knew it. We all had a hunch you don't

need a lawyer, you just need chat GPT. Right. Oh, can you imagine chat GPT fucking pass the bar like in the top ten percent? Right, So I think I think it would do a better job than Gwyneth or that other dude's lord, Like, yeah, at least simple over Gwynneth. I think someone as a it's probably gonna start off as a goof where someone represents themselves at trial with the help of chat GPT, and then oh fuck yeah, why do we have to all right, that's chat gpt

j D to you. Okay, we could ask chat gpt to write us the script for that movie of something using chat gpt. Actually, chat GBT wrote this episode. I don't know if you know that, Carmen, Like everything that's coming out of your voice is chat I written. I'm CHAPT. We all are in a way, we all are chat GPT. That's gonna be some fucking dumb ted talk when we're at the precipice of like cultural apocalypse, when they're like, in a way, we are all chat GPT and we

should embrace the fucking darkness. Chat GPT was more about the ai you made along the way, you know. Fuck all right, let's take a quick break and we'll wrap this wonderful episode out by talking about the whitest trial of the century right after this and we are back, uh, Gwyneth Paltrow just want to touch one. Just put a bow on the Gwyneth Paltrow Ski trial where you know, the seventy six year old optometrists sued her because he's like, she ran into me and I can't enjoy wine like

I used to. Well, he lost that case. Why did you sound like DMX right then, like one of those interludes ideas she ran into me. She ran into me as I tried to skate. God, Like, my fucking neighbors are like, what the fuck is going on over there? I'm making a fucking podcast. But yeah, the trial has ended. Uh, and she has been gwyndicated and awarded one dollar in damages, which she countersued for because for her, she was like, oh honey, it's not about the money from me. I

just know you're gonna lose. Apparently, like a lot of memes are coming out of this trial. I kind of was avoiding this ship because I'm like, this is fucking like I have other things to worry about. Plus I was in the middle of like parental leave, but I saw the memes that were coming out during the trial.

But apparently the last moment really gave everybody a tickle because as she you know, left the courtroom after winning her one dollars, she leaned over to the dudes doing her and she just whispered I wish you well, to which he applied. Didn't he say something? He's like, thank you, dear. Uh. And it's set off like a ton of memes where people were like putting it into you know, the menu or Game of Thrones, just to be Someone said, I wish you well is Brentwood for bless your Heart? Exactly?

I was thinking that too, yeah, which I hold on. Let me find out who tweeted that, because I wanted to make sure when they see each other at those parent teacher conferences, it's gonna go down, you know what I mean? Oh yeah, oh what? Oh yeah, Oh a lot of people are doing some version of Okay. I guess many people like when things like this happened, they've just completely turned it. I've seen like a thousand versions of this, like I guess that's California for or West

Coast Almond Mom's version of bless your Heart. Anyway, So that is what's happening in that trial. It is over. Apparently I didn't realize how much of a goop ad the trial was. So what was what was like were there multiple items she was wearing or was it like one thing? What was going on with that? I mean, I don't know the details. I just know that everybody was like, this is giving goops so much like media attention because every time like she's associated with goops, so

every time like she has brought on like everybody. That's like what all everybody was talking about. It's like how unhinged Goop is. Yeah, I saw that. The one thing was that I think it was the first day, like Dumois, they clocked something the clock in her turtleneck, the turtleneck sweat, and they're like, that shit is from Goop, It's from her very own g label. So I mean, look, master Marketer, you open up with pussy candle to the courtroom. I know. Yeah,

She's like, oh, I can't do doing her affirmations religious practice. Wait, they did try to give They did try to give like the bailiffs and the court people a snack. Did you see that a Goop snack? I don't know if I thought it was Gwynne's people, but I can't remember. It might have been, yeah, it was Gwyne's lawyer. Because it was the lawyer. He was like, hey, I just

want to be upfront with you guys. Uh. We brought a treat for all the people in the courtroom who have been helping us, and then like the other team was like, no, you can't give them like pastries or whatever the fuck it was. So it was such a bake off, you know what I mean, Like it's like the mom at the bank, at the kids' school and

in full goop on their asses. Ahead of the testimony the fifth year Oscar winner civil trial in Park City, her attorney Steve Oone said, Quol private security for my client wanted to bring in treats for the bailiffs for how helpful they've been. So I wanted to do that transparently and see if there are any objections. You know that she's kissed that in all of these articles it lists her age. You fucking know she's mad. Oh yeah,

I mean look again that that skincare routine. I gotta ask you, Carmen Good, how much of gwyn if you think, is the skincare and how much is basically being so fucking wealthy and having good genes that you can quite you can dress. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Like what what is it? Because I always like, we always talk about this, especially with like famous people who are like on this wellness ship and they're like all I do is eat colloidal silver and blah blah blah, and they're like, no, motherfucker,

you grew up wealthy. That's not all that Krishna got blue. You know, they have a they have a nanny. They don't write, you know, cook their own meal. You know, they don't have to worry about anything. That's how there is perfect. Gwyneth actually eats dirt for most of her meal, so she doesn't need to cook it at all. You know, she eats she no, she eats clean. She eats clean. She don't eat from plastic. I think I've mentioned this before.

I was on I was directing a video when I was working at like Vanity Fair Kanye n Ass thing with her, and we had lunch brought in but like it was like room service from this really nice hotel. But one of the things, like a condiment or something was in a plastic container, and she's like, oh no, no, I can't eat this because it's like plastic. It's a plastics and it's yeah, it's like it's a side of

catch up or whatever. And then so she put like the dome back onto the fucking like the like the lunch that we got her, and her assistant came through with the quickness with her like backup meal that was all in like glass. Oh god, oh shit, Okay, you know what this is inspiring me to like become the hottest I can be and see how I do it fifty because if I can do it off of Taco Bell and late night, yeah, like fuck that, I'm gonna. Oh, we're gonna talk car Man. I'm gonna need some tips

from you. I can't talk about all the time. My breaking point. You're gonna go on reverse. You're gonna go on reverse. Yea if you like that Taco Bell is. But you know what, I think you should realize your best self, you know what I mean, even if your body does And I'm gonna do it under the worst conditions, just to spike Gwyneth all the microplastics in your body. Just gonna oh man, y'all, y'all, everybody's sucking with the bell over here, Taco Bell, You'll have talk about Okay,

I'm gonna be honest. I recently turned vegan, so I can't eat a Taco bell anymore. But it was like it's like the biggest loss they do. Yeah, oh shit, I don't know. I also wanted to add I'm a really bad vegan, so I'm just like hungry all the time and eat too much candy and like chocolate. So I'm trying to figure it out. Yeah, yeah, you can, you can get you can't eat vegan a Taco Bell. I know that this just fucked up the rest of my week. Miles, thank you so much. All good. That's

what I like to do. I'm a I'm a I'm a Taco Bell evangelist. I will still not fucking sponsor to Sean. I want my motherfucking platinum Taco Bell card. You fucking cowards. Yeah, get on that card. But it's funny too, because I don't know if you saw right now like they're I'm just taking this completely different tangent that like they're doing like this whole thing where you can like resurrect old menu items right now, and they're like, do you we can bring back the cool ranch Dorito's

Loco Taco or the beefy crunch burrito. I'm still waiting for the for the spicy and sweet chili Doritos Locos taco. Yeah, that's my favorite. I don't like that they're doing this. Just bring back what we want. That's your job as the fucking Yeah. But that's why there's like all kinds of campaigns. I know a couple of people in the Zeit Gang they're tagging me in like fucking like, They're like, yo,

you need to align with the beefy crunch burrito. And I'm like, honestly, I'm a fucking I'm a very simple ass man when it comes to taco about I only get like four things every fucking time. That's yoga affirmation. You need to align with the beefy crunch burrito. You to vote for the beefy crunch taco. Yeah. I get a text. It's like, Hi, it's me Nancy Pelosi. Miles. You must know the beefy crunch burrito is hanging by a knife sense right now, I just need another dollar

for the dollar menu version. Can I count on you to ensure that I can have at least three Supreme Soft tacos today for lunch? Okay, I mean they got dose with cats, so I'm sure they could get Nancy. You know, that's gonna be her next That's gonna be her next big corporate food gigs. She had Jenny is now she's gone full of taco bell. Oh my god. The dorito's Nancy Peloco's tacco Oh my god. Yeah, I'm here for that. Your girl bosses line, The fuck up girl, Baha,

black girl back back. It'll be like the most shoulder pads and a taco bell in decades it served in the shoulder pad. Oh can you imagine her like pronouncing the words though I feel I love the mass live masks. Shit.

So at Suzanne young Uh posted if you ever want to see a career low point, this is it crying my entire way home, and it was a picture of a bunch of empty seats at what would have been a book reading in like in a bookstore, So clearly she had a book and was supposed to

do a reading. And Noman showed up, and then J P mcdaide, who's a comic who's very funny, he quote tweeted it and he was like, comic, we'll start in like five, We're still gonna do the show. Shit. I was like, Yeah, that's the most comic sit ever that a tweet I like is from Alex Goldman at a Goldman tweeted. Today is my last day as a verified Twitter user, and to honor that, I just wanted to say that this account was never run by Alex Goldman.

My name is Darren Scrimshaw and I live in Upper Sandusky, Ohio, and I've been impersonating Alex Goldman on here for over a decade. But yeah, because a lot of those money, those old those them verified marks are going away and the only people that are going to have them are the people who love to give Elon Muskmar money. But it's nice to see like other people, like I think a few newspapers were like fuck that we're not giving

new fucking thousand dollars a month or some shit. Yeah, but I can't imagine what that will do uh down the road and this information, but anyway, we will, you know, we'll get to that when we get there.

on this track. There's like an artist called Lonely Boy who like makes like like those like low five beats. You know that you could study two type music, but he hasn't. Is this only one of loss Lonely Boys, It's just one of them, Yeah, one of them left and he went low five. He's not doing he's not

working with the other Lonely Boys anymore, makes sense. But he has like a whole album, Like he has albums where he'll do like just low five versions of like like Cypress Hill or like BTS or even like Sublime, which are really interesting because like you can just hear is like low five like beats to study two, but it'll be like Santhia but like some line or whatever.
