SPEAKER_00Okay. Um, so here's the thing. Eddie was like, we have nothing to talk about. We have nothing to talk about. Doesn't daddy on the podcast. And I was like, listen, there's always things to talk about. I remember um back in the day, I used to, gosh, sorry, I'm drinking the sparkling water and it's like I'll talk about if we No no no, I'm gonna go back to the book.
SPEAKER_01Oh, you're ready. I was gonna take over.
SPEAKER_00So I used to listen to these two sisters and they were like super cute and they were like on uh YouTube or whatever, and we were like they would do their little podcast. And then I remember they they would just like shoot the shit, and I loved listening to them week to week, and then they just stopped because they're like we ran out of things to talk about. And then there was these other two friends that I loved in New York, I also found them from social media, and they also stopped because they're like, we just have nothing to talk about. And I'm like, I would on my drives, I just like you. So I like hanging out with you and just talk about whatever. And so having been like as a listener of things before, where I'm like, don't stop podcasting just because you feel you have to do it.
SPEAKER_01We weren't gonna stop. I wasn't gonna stop.
SPEAKER_00You just weren't gonna do it tonight.
SPEAKER_01No, I was I was ready to do it tonight. I was ready for you to take the lead.
SPEAKER_00Oh, okay. Because I usually I'm I'm usually like the LeBron James, but I'm I gotta be honest, you said take the lead, and now you look like you're chomping at the bit. Like you look like a I'm fired up.
SPEAKER_01Once the camera and my mic goes on, I'm like, I'm ready to go.
SPEAKER_00I know you're ready to go.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I'm firing all cylinders. I mean, we could talk about like gas prices, we could talk about the war and we can talk about the fact that my freaking the straight in Iran. I mean, I could we could talk about that.
SPEAKER_00Okay, well, that's surely not what I want to talk about. I can talk about um that my heated blanket is broken.
SPEAKER_01Well, so like there's a guys, if you guys see this, if you're watching this via YouTube.
SPEAKER_00I don't know why.
SPEAKER_01Look at how look at this. Do you think this is gonna work?
SPEAKER_00It works for years.
SPEAKER_01But yeah, you know I untangle this like twice a week. Do you? Yeah, look at this thing is fighting for its life. Look at it.
SPEAKER_00That's why it's broken, it's not doing it.
SPEAKER_01Well, because it's so tangled up.
SPEAKER_00I that's not my fault.
SPEAKER_01How I how who else uses that? Well, what I'm just asking, who else uses it?
SPEAKER_00No, okay, but you can plug it in right here, and then it comes to right here. Literally, how did it get so tangled? You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_01Me being a generator expert, power expert.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01I could tell you why it's not working.
SPEAKER_00Because it's all clamped up.
SPEAKER_01It's all clamped up, yeah. I untangle this at least once a week.
SPEAKER_00Okay, well, I think I'm just gonna buy a new one.
SPEAKER_01Maybe you could send it back to Amazon.
SPEAKER_00It's like a year old, it has holes in it.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_01Um we talk about can I talk about one of my one things that I want to talk about?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, let's.
SPEAKER_01So I updated my iPhone this week.
SPEAKER_00Oh, jeez, Eddie! No one wants to hear about this. Isn't that no?
SPEAKER_01Because I'm sure there's a lot of people.
SPEAKER_00I updated mine today. Was that a bad idea?
SPEAKER_01It was a I never do it, but I work off a program called Square that you guys probably have all used. For like for ice cream. When you pay, yeah. And I needed to do it to update it because I couldn't see my sales. Yeah. So I needed to update my entire phone for this one app. Uh-huh. And I'm like touching. And you know that and you know that I'm like, I hold out. Like, I hold out so far. Cause it it they Apple does this every fucking time.
SPEAKER_00I know, because the phones like can't handle the new phone.
SPEAKER_01And now my phone is so slow. Like it is, I could tell it lagging, and I'm like, oh my god.
SPEAKER_00That is a big bummer.
SPEAKER_01And I and I fucking get it, and I usually never do it.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01But now it's like, I gotta wait till I've October, because that's usually when they release like a new phone.
SPEAKER_00That's right.
SPEAKER_01So it sounds like a memory phone.
SPEAKER_00For your birthday. His birthday is in October.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, we want to go to Austin, Texas, baby. Go watch the Longhorns.
SPEAKER_00That's right.
SPEAKER_01So if we have any people that listen from Austin, Texas.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, so it's become a little bit of a uh tradition that we go, what?
SPEAKER_01It's the best.
SPEAKER_00It's I mean, it's my favorite thing in the entire. We go to a game. It started with we went to go see when his sister was going to UT, Tennessee. We went to go see a Tennessee, Florida game to go see her. And then, and then last year, Eddie was like, I'd love to go see a University of Oregon game. And so we went up. Well, I'm from Oregon, so it was very easy to go up, but we went with my sister and brother-in-law.
SPEAKER_01Oregon, Indiana. That was a big game. We saw Oregon or we saw Tennessee, Florida, and then last year we saw Indiana, uh, Oregon. Indiana ended up winning the national championship. I don't you probably don't even know that.
SPEAKER_00I didn't know that. And then and then this year he was like, I'm thinking that we should go to Austin because I have some family friends there and we can go visit them. And then he was like, and I'd also like to see a game. Yeah so I think it's a cool little tradition for your birthday.
SPEAKER_01Texas Ole Miss. That's Texas Ole Miss is the one I want to go to.
SPEAKER_00What what day is it?
SPEAKER_01It's October 27th. The only thing that scares me.
SPEAKER_00I'm busy.
SPEAKER_01The only thing that scares me. Actually, you're busy. I know, I know. That's the only thing that scares me. Is that weekend I'm usually really busy?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, that's a big ice cream weekend. I know.
SPEAKER_01So we could go the weekend before. And I think the game is, I forget who they play, but it's another good game. Um, because I like to go see college football is like a cult, they have a cult following and these cities get so behind their football team. Guys, if you've never gone to see college football, go watch a call. Like, I love that environment. It's something that I told you the other day that I want to do with like our little kid one day or our little daughter, yeah, is go to one game a year in a different college, you know?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I think that's cool.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it's also that I don't have to go. No, no, no.
SPEAKER_00Oh no, I'll go. I think it's fun. The Tennessee game, I will say, was overwhelming. Like an SEC game, it was like bench seating, yeah, and you're like so close to people, and then people are like, it's the things I don't I don't like loud noises, I don't like being shoved. Like these are all things I don't like, and that is literally what you like about football games.
SPEAKER_01That's why I want to go to the rowdiest environments, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, like I want to sit here with my heated blanket. You know what I mean? Like, we have different happy places.
SPEAKER_01That's why I've taken you to Rams games like in like nice seats, because I'm like, if we ever want to talk about like we've talked about season tickets, getting season tickets, I can like talk you in. Hey, you remember that experience you had? We had our own exit, we had our own entrance. I that's exactly right.
SPEAKER_00Yes, that's exactly how you could get me. That's right. That oh, honey, I'll go every time.
SPEAKER_01And you enjoyed that last one. We had really good seats on that one.
SPEAKER_00I I would go to all go to Rams. I think Rams games are fun. I like that they're close to home. I like that if I have a like an easy entrance exit. Yeah, you know. I love I love if I get a little like treat, like I get a little hat, a little merch, you know? Yeah, I usually don't like to bring a beer, so I'm happy.
SPEAKER_01They do. So if any Rams listeners are listening, I'm kidding.
SPEAKER_00If anyone plays on the Rams, no, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_01But we will hopefully get season tickets soon. Um, so let's talk about um season tickets soon. Let's talk about um oh, you're actually leading the show. I am leading the show, too. So what do you want to talk about next?
SPEAKER_00Um, number one, let's talk about Double Wars Prada. We just went to go see it last night. Sorry. Uh this is a warning to anyone who wants to skip through.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, skip this movie. Spoilers. It's a great movie.
SPEAKER_00I really enjoyed it. I have thoughts.
SPEAKER_01Well, you're the movie. So I w so let's talk, let's how about this? You're an expert. You're like a movie expert, I would say.
SPEAKER_00Well, yeah.
SPEAKER_01You're close to it. You know what I'm saying? Like you know it more than like the average person. Sure. And then I'm like basically on ground zero.
SPEAKER_00Like, okay, so I here's how I felt.
SPEAKER_01You want to go first or you want me to go first?
SPEAKER_00I'd like to go first. Okay, you go first. Because I'm feeling hot.
SPEAKER_01All right, go for it.
SPEAKER_00Okay, so I went and I was like so excited to see this movie, right? Because Devil Wars Prada 1, I could quote from memory. I love it so much. It's so good. It's like the perfect, it was in like the greatest era of movies. I love Anne Hathaway, love Morel Streep, love Emily Blunt, love everybody involved. I also was really inspired by the fashion. I was just excited to do it. I really liked the movie. I was there, I was in it, I was in the movie, I was watching it. I left being like, hmm.
SPEAKER_01Stop it. Really?
SPEAKER_00Yeah. You know what I think it is.
SPEAKER_01You haven't been feeling well, isn't that?
SPEAKER_00No, that's not that's not why it was too real. I don't want to hear about how the media is failing. I think that's it.
SPEAKER_01I've been feeling Yeah, you do you do have a like a bone to pick with that, I think. What well the AI stuff? Did they talk about AI?
SPEAKER_00They talked about AI and layoffs. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. And it's so real, and I've been feeling the heaviness of that lately. Like, you didn't know another studio went out of went out CBS T Television City? I didn't even tell you that.
SPEAKER_01Who bought that?
SPEAKER_00No, it's just it's force for a closing.
SPEAKER_01Well, I was seeing I was seeing that. What's that company that does QOte?
SPEAKER_00That does like movie like oh uh trailer company you know what I'm talking about?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, they just close like a ton of stuff.
SPEAKER_00Okay, so like I could cry talking about this. Like it makes me so devastated that this industry, as I knew it, is falling apart. But I also see uh it change happens and change is happening and like change is good sometimes, change is good, and we're embracing it. I mean, doing the social media, doing the podcast, like we're trying to be like, what is the new entertainment of the future because what I came up with is not doing that, and like anyways, I'm trying to change with it instead of fighting against it, but it still makes me extremely sad to see this industry change so much. And so I guess when I went to the movies and it was all about how the media is dying, and it was like, you know, there's the magazine isn't really like cool any like isn't really a thing anymore, and then in the end, it didn't even really make sense how they ended up saving it. It was just like this Lucy Lou who's a rich person bought it. Who's a rich person bought it, but it wasn't like, oh, we're gonna make the magazine cool in a different way. And I really do empathize with them because I wrote on the bold type, which a lot of people know, and it was it's a I know you haven't watched a single thing I've written on.
SPEAKER_01I watched it all.
SPEAKER_00You have never watched the bold type, but it was about a girl girls working in magazines.
SPEAKER_01I watched it all.
SPEAKER_00And we were always struck with like magazines are falling apart, they're not really a thing anymore. But I think in the bold type, we really leaned into let's just sell the fantasy, let's just be like, it's still 1990s, New York City, and magazines are fun because that's what you want to watch. And I guess I wanted to see that because I left the movies theaters being like, I'm really sad that Devil Wears Prado 1 could never be made now because the the magazine business is in the same place. Am I making any sense?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, probably I think it just hit close to home.
SPEAKER_00It hit close to home.
SPEAKER_01It hit close to home, and it's something that you also went through, I think. You know what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_00And it it I left feeling like a little sad. Like I was like, that was too fucking real. And I I always hear this with scripts. This is like me ranting. I don't know if anyone gets around.
SPEAKER_01It's kind of like when I watch the blind side.
SPEAKER_00What?
SPEAKER_01It's kind of like when I watch the blind side or the sandlot. The football or the sandlot, you know.
SPEAKER_00What are you talking about?
SPEAKER_01I'm totally.
SPEAKER_00Okay, here's another thing is that I always hear from executives when you write a script, they always say it has to feel now, it has to feel timely, it has to feel like why is this being made right now?
SPEAKER_01That's almost almost too real.
SPEAKER_00Well, I know they told Aline Brosh McKenna, that writer who I adore and I've always adored her. She wrote Devil Wars Prada 1, she wrote Devil Wars Prada 2, that she I know they told her it has to feel now. Why where would these characters be right now? And you have to make it timely and feel reality. I almost left being like, I wanted to escape reality a little bit more.
SPEAKER_01Like that's kind of what a movie is, right? You kind of go into like uh almost like uh Project Hail Mary.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, like I wanted to really escape the world, and I was a little bit too struck by I don't know, and maybe that's just me because I work in entertainment, and so I felt like I don't think I've ever thought that deep about anything. You sure have because you feel that deep about the Lakers, yeah.
SPEAKER_01The Rams, yeah.
SPEAKER_00But anyways, this is how okay, how did you feel about it?
SPEAKER_01You just said the Rams and the way like everything at home. No, but it's like god, the way they lost that last game. No, um I loved it. I I personally the only thing my only oh so we get to the movie theater. I actually suggested to go to go to watch it yesterday uh because I thought the movie theater was gonna be empty. Because usually Tuesday night is a night that I like to go because it's 50% off. It used to be six dollars.
SPEAKER_00All of this to say, by the way, just to say really quickly, everyone go watch it. Yeah, yeah. So for me, complaining, uh, watch it and then let's all discuss it. But like, I'm obviously so sad about the death of the entertainment, so go to the freaking movies because it needs to, we need to and I think now that I know that how big you are, like how much you love, like you work in it.
SPEAKER_01I want to go support the movie theater too. And Ben Siller was actually on one of my Pat McAfee. I watch him every day. He talked about that. Like Ben Slayer talked about it too. Like, we want to make stuff so people go to movie theater. Like, that's like that was almost his focal point. Like, go to the movie theater, go watch it, right? Anyway, I didn't like that.
SPEAKER_00Is that what he was talking about?
SPEAKER_01No, he didn't talk about that. He was just talking about the next. Um, I didn't like that I spent $35 on um Bob Corner and an icy and a drink and and um candy. The movie theater needs to figure that out.
SPEAKER_00That's way you can't, babe. That's how they survive. That's how these theaters survive.
SPEAKER_01I know, but $35 for two.
SPEAKER_00Also, we didn't spend $35 because it's a good one. I could get a coupon for $10.
SPEAKER_01And I we made the mistake because I had a $9 deal that we could have bought two of them and it would have been $18. We would have saved some cash there. But um that's usually how I operate.
SPEAKER_00No, see, when I go to the movie theaters, I know it's gonna be expensive, but I am happy to pay it because I'm like you want to know something really funny that I didn't tell you, but I like always think about it when we get to the movie theater.
SPEAKER_01What so Caroline guys, like I I don't like to call myself I'm not tight with money. I'm I call it smart. When we first went on our first date, we went to the movie theater, Caroline walked over the water thing and grabbed the water. She bought a a bottled water from the movie theater, and that's like eight bucks. That hit my and I that's when I was like paying for everything.
SPEAKER_00Because you know, like that is not true.
SPEAKER_01I was, I was so what you pay for a bottle of water? I paid for a bottle of water. But three years ago. And I thought that cards.
SPEAKER_00You are so cheap.
SPEAKER_01No, it's not, no, it's not. Yes, it is because I had three water bottles in the car. I I purposely leave water in the car for us. You know that anyway, anyway.
SPEAKER_00But yesterday you water so weird about buying water bottles.
SPEAKER_01It like it seems you because your fam, Chris Matthews, fucking Chris Matthews, will go we'll be at the house. This is my brother-in-law. He will be at the house where there is Kirkland water just freaking like they bought out the store of Kirkland water, right? And we'll go to a gas station, he'll go get three waters. And it like, I'm not paying for it, but it like for himself, and it just breaks my it just like So it's crazy that it because I would do the same thing, by the way.
SPEAKER_00One of those waters is probably for me.
SPEAKER_01You don't even do that anymore.
SPEAKER_00You I Well, I don't do it because I know that you are still because I also keep water in the car. And sometimes if I say, Oh, I'm buying a water bottle, like I have to be like Eddie, I'm buying a water bottle, but it's because I'm like really thirsty and I have no other option to water.
SPEAKER_01Guys, I keep this like I have this Yeti, like, what is it, 48 ounce? Like, bought always filled up with water.
SPEAKER_00Survival water for us. In the car. Yeah, in the car.
SPEAKER_01Just because I know you're gonna get thirsty, somebody's gonna get thirsty. Anyway, Caroline walks up and grabs a sour patch that's like $12 at the movie theater.
SPEAKER_00What is this? Last is this three years ago? No, it was last night.
SPEAKER_01We grabbed it, and I was like, We literally had like gummy wears in the in our cover, you know.
SPEAKER_00Anyway, no, no, no. I want to support the entertainment industry. No, I know, I know. Also, it's like a very beautiful ritual I have that I eat sour patch kids with popcorn and a Diet Coke.
SPEAKER_01You were housing that popcorn as well.
SPEAKER_00I will not be shamed for that.
SPEAKER_01I thought it was a little burnt last night. Did you think it was a little burnt last night?
SPEAKER_00No, I was happy as confused. Really? I thought it was a little burnt. I want a sour patch kid and popcorn, and I want my Diet Coke. And if I'm gonna go to the movie theater, I'm not gonna deny myself these small pleasures.
SPEAKER_01You're right, you're right. No, you're right, you're right. Do each their own.
SPEAKER_00And I'm happy to spend the $25 on the couple.
SPEAKER_01But next time we'll use a coupon because you get two for 18.
SPEAKER_00Well, I'm confused where this coupon came from because it used to be five dollars. But wait, so where did you find this coupon that you didn't mention it last night?
SPEAKER_01I had it, but then you're like, oh, let's just support. Oh yeah, yeah, you kind of trumped me there. Oh, I did? You did, you did. I was like, I have the oh no, we'll just take the large.
SPEAKER_00Wait, wait, wait.
SPEAKER_01Because I was because I had I literally had it over.
SPEAKER_00What did you get?
SPEAKER_01You get a small icy, a small cup, a small two, a cup, and a small uh popcorn. And we got two of those.
SPEAKER_00What about the candy?
SPEAKER_01I was gonna put the pop I was gonna put the candy back.
SPEAKER_00Oh, see, yeah. Okay, this is why I can't no anyway, anyway.
SPEAKER_01So it ended up working out. So we get our popcorn, and then I thought it was a great movie. Like I usually like play Township when we go to movies, you know, because I got a um you have a little bit of ADD. Oh, 100%. That's how I watch movies though. Yeah, and but I thought it was a great movie.
SPEAKER_00I did too. I really don't know what's going on. What's the main actress's name? Uh Ann Halfman.
SPEAKER_01She's a smoke, yeah.
SPEAKER_00She's she's stunning.
SPEAKER_01She's stunning. Yeah, she's stunning. I and I watched the first one not too long ago. I think I watched it on one of our flights. Like, this was like not very long ago, but I had forgot what it was about.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01And I love going to movies. That's like one thing that we've done with you is like I don't know anything about a movie, and I'll just walk into it. Yeah. Like, remember Project Hell Mary? I had no idea what you're doing.
SPEAKER_00I know, but I never leave you astray.
SPEAKER_01I know, but you've done a great job. Yeah. And I love that. I love going to movies not knowing.
SPEAKER_00I'm thinking about Project Hell Mary, the producers of it. I have a meeting with tomorrow. I know. For the nine-year-old bus show idea. I feel like the podcast, I can tell them anything. Like, even the Devil Wears Prada movie, like me having some criticism, I would never post that on TikTok because I don't want to be like vocal. Like, I don't want to be vocally criticizing a movie. I want people to go see it.
SPEAKER_01Somebody's gonna clip this and put it on TikTok.
SPEAKER_00No, they won't. They won't. No, our podcast listeners are like, like, there are people. And so, but you know, anyways, Lord and Miller are the directors of uh Project Project Hail Mary, and they are the producers of the Nine-Year-old Boss show idea that I'm now developing through my TikTok, and I have a meeting at 9 a.m. tomorrow.
SPEAKER_01Yay! So let's go.
SPEAKER_00I was supposed to have it last week and they rescheduled.
SPEAKER_01So we have vibes, good vibes, good vibes only.
SPEAKER_00Good vibes only. I literally blew my hair out tonight.
SPEAKER_01Oh I thought you were gonna say I blew your back out. But no. Oh my god. Yeah. Because that was like true. But no Jeez!
SPEAKER_00But no, I blew my hair out tonight because even though it's on Zoom, I want to feel my absolute best tomorrow. And yeah, can't wait.
SPEAKER_01I can't wait either. It's funny because tomorrow I'll be home.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_01I love listening to those meetings. Why? Because it fires me. I'll be downstairs. I won't be no, you won't.
SPEAKER_00It's 9 a.m.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Or I'll be like super quiet. Yeah. You won't even hear me and guys.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01But I I get like fired. Oh, they like that.
SPEAKER_00Let's go.
SPEAKER_01Close to the season tickets.
SPEAKER_00Oh my gosh.
SPEAKER_01Um, there's another thing that I did want to talk about. Spirit Airlines.
SPEAKER_00Spirit Airlines. Did you ever play Spirit? R I P. I have I flew them once or twice.
SPEAKER_01Do you remember your experience?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, it's pretty crappy.
SPEAKER_01I flew them in college and I flew them in COVID one time.
SPEAKER_00Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_01And I remember it was like the the heat of the pandemic.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01And I bought the first seat. And we were I was like the first one on, and or like the last guy on and the first guy off.
SPEAKER_00Like you bought a good seat?
SPEAKER_01Like bought a good seat because I remember because I was still living at home with my parents.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01And my grand, we were super careful like around my grandma. Yeah. So I felt really bad getting on a plane, but then I remember I was like, I have the first seat, I'll just go at the end. And I just had a backpack. Um, that was the only time I think I I used to fly Front Allegiant a lot. Oh, yeah. Because I used to have a direct flight from Tulsa to LA. Yeah. Like Thursday and then Monday. But RIP spirit, man.
SPEAKER_00I'm upset about that. I mean, I I didn't fly spirit, but I like that I like that it existed for people, you know? Like I was very like an option for somebody to fly. That's exactly right. I mean, it was pretty shitty, and so I would always pay more for like a nicer experience. But people who are just like, I just need to like think about if you're like my grandpa died and he lives somewhere and I am really struggling with money.
SPEAKER_01I have like a hundred bucks.
SPEAKER_00Exactly. Like, not even so people were saying online, like they would get a thing for for $29, they would go somewhere.
SPEAKER_01Like it was wildly achieved.
SPEAKER_00I remember and it's crazy, and like your back hurts and all this stuff, but I think that you know, like if you're in a tough spot, you should still have access to fly, even if it's gonna freaking hurt your back.
SPEAKER_01But yeah, um, no, I I feel what think about a really funny story in college, or my buddy Enrique, who they get married in Thailand in November. He would used to fly coming back from Michigan to LA, and he was so broke in college that he used to put all his clothes on, and then he would fly on it, and then his like carry-on was so big that you know, spirit like I don't know if you remember those, but they were really strict about like a carry-on package.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01They were like, No, you can't bring that on, you gotta pay $150.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, that's uh-huh.
SPEAKER_01And he would I and they stopped him at the gate and he had like five layers on like sweating, sweating, and he's like he's going by headphones on, he's trying to ignore the person. And the lady's like, Hey, you you've got to pay for this. And he goes, All right, sure, I don't have any money. She he goes, You could tab my wallet, you could swipe every card, but I don't have any money.
SPEAKER_00And I remember the lady being like, All right, fine, just yeah, like even that like college kids, like there's a there's a need for real budget. Shouldn't come home things, yeah. And I I feel sad that it doesn't exist anymore. There's like a whole thing on TikTok that people are trying to like buy Spirit Airlines. Have you seen this?
SPEAKER_01No, I'm not on that. I told you, I'm on like cutting grass.
SPEAKER_00Uh okay, can we talk about the other thing that I'm on right now is the Hontavirus.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, that that so I uh How do you feel about that?
SPEAKER_00So Okay, so for people who don't know, there is a uh cruise ship that. It's like on the coast of I don't even know where it's. It was like on the coast of Africa for a while and then it was Europe. Anyways, there was a burpee today. I know I need to stop drinking this sparkling water. Um it was someone got the Honta virus, which is like a virus that you get from rat droppings that I guess typically doesn't translate to humans, but it this one strain did, and people are getting sick from it. And it's like also people are now contact tracing because it's like this like 75-year-old man passed, which is so sad. Oh, someone died of it. Oh, three people have died of it.
SPEAKER_01Oh wow.
SPEAKER_00He passed. I think his wife just died. And then it was like the wife went on a plane, and then that flight attendant that helped her off the on and off the plane is now in the hospital, sick with it. And so it's like it's passing, like people are getting.
SPEAKER_01Well, I I heard something that they're already off the plane or off the plane.
SPEAKER_00I think they just docked like today.
SPEAKER_01What what April, March, April, May.
SPEAKER_00I'm not super.
SPEAKER_01I thought it was April. It could have been yeah, I try not to get in that algorithm too much.
SPEAKER_00I I'm mad that I'm on it because it keeps coming at me and I'm like, geez Louise, I another COVID. I it's not gonna be another COVID. I mean, maybe this one has a like a 40% mortality rate. Okay. People die. But then, and then they someone else said that there's a really long incubation period, so it's like eight weeks. So it's like you might not know you're six.
SPEAKER_01Oh, you're deep in this.
SPEAKER_00I I know. I've got to get off it.
SPEAKER_01Anyways, I hope my phone doesn't hear that because I don't want to get on that algorithm.
SPEAKER_00Oh, sorry. Anyways, I um I am there, and I don't think it'll be another COVID because I don't think that people will shut down.
SPEAKER_01Are you a doctor?
SPEAKER_00I'm not a doctor at all.
SPEAKER_01I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Um do you remember those internet doctors during COVID? That was the that was all of it during COVID was like COVID was so like it's obviously not funny that that's a lot of people died and it was yeah, it was very serious, but like I remember it was such a time, it was such a moment in time.
SPEAKER_00It was such a time. And everyone who's posting about this virus right now, a lot of people are commenting and being like, This time I'm becoming a content creator. Like, because you remember when everyone was like dancing in the house, a lot of people got famous online during COVID because everyone was home watching stuff. COVID was a while, and so I it people are cracking me up with their comments saying, like, this time I'm not gonna be a nurse, I'm quitting. Like, that's so I'm doing this time differently.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, COVID was uh now that I'm thinking, how long ago is that? Was that like six years? I remember when that first happened, when COVID first happened, I was like, oh, it'll be over in two weeks, you know, three weeks. Then it'd be like three weeks.
SPEAKER_00No, it was a little bit more than a little bit more than that.
SPEAKER_01And then there was like, and then it was like, it'll be over in like a month, and then it was like, and then I remember we were like eight months in and we're like, holy fuck, this isn't going anywhere.
SPEAKER_00I know. And you know who actually isn't getting this on my algo and who keeps reposting things? Kendall, my 14-year-old niece. Of course. I think that she's like, oh my gosh, this better not happen. I haven't even talked to her about it.
SPEAKER_01Tell her to stop reposting that.
SPEAKER_00I know I'm gonna tell her. I don't need to see this, Kendall.
SPEAKER_01I've got right now, what's in my algo is like the mayor's race is going on.
SPEAKER_00Oh my god, should we talk about the mayor race?
SPEAKER_01Chris Pratt is in my Spencer Pratt. Does he have a brother named Chris Pratt?
SPEAKER_00No, Chris Pratt is like a movie star. Like he's a totally separate.
SPEAKER_01Oh, it's not not the same guy.
SPEAKER_00They're not related at all.
SPEAKER_01This guy's a clown.
SPEAKER_00I actually never even realized they have the same name.
SPEAKER_01Oh, this guy's a clown.
SPEAKER_00Spencer Pratt. Yeah. So um, what's crazy about Spencer Pratt is that he was on The Hills. He was on a reality show when I was in high school, and he was like the villain on the hills. But he was just like a goofy reality star, right? And I loved the hills. And um, did you know that I he made me a video for my birthday like a couple years ago? By a couple, I mean like six. But my friend Laura knew someone who knew Spencer and she knew how much I love the Hills, and so she reached out to him and said, So you're part of the problem.
SPEAKER_01I know, I I never I didn't realize like how MAGA he was.
SPEAKER_00Me neither. I I he's never been a politician. I've never noticed politics. He was just like a a guy on a reality show, you know.
SPEAKER_01Like I didn't no, I'm listening. I I I I'm not I can't talk about it enough yet. Like I'm not I'm not as strong in that side of you know, I haven't listened to it enough, you know. You're f I saw some stuff today that really knocked me off of him, you know?
SPEAKER_00No, no, I'm definitely off of Spencer Pratt. Here's the thing I Spencer Pratt is not, I mean, he wants to bring ice into Los Angeles, like immediately no. No, thank you, Spencer. Yeah, yeah. I don't uh agree with you. Um, but the even more so, Spencer is doing Trump practices where he is name-calling. Remember you heard I you said that where he's calling like Karen Bass Karen Basuda, and Basuda means trash.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, that was that's like bullying that's like bullying.
SPEAKER_00To me already, I'm just like, that's not a leader, that's not someone that I want to represent my city. Like, absolutely not. And it's really interesting to me that you would go that route. Because I'm like, if you're trying to disrupt something and be like, hey, I'm like one of the people, because his whole thing is that Nethya Raman and Karen Bass live in these big houses and he his house burned down. He's like one of the people, he's seeing, you know, his He's one of the people, but he lived in Palisades.
SPEAKER_01Well No, but I'm just saying, I'm not sure.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, Palisades people, I mean, not all Palisades people are whatever super.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I want to go, I don't want to go down that capital.
SPEAKER_00Anyways, um, all of this to say that I don't like those bullying bullying tendencies, and so immediately I'm just like, that's not a leader to me. I'm not interested in what you have to say. And then I saw the ice stuff, and I was like, I'm definitely not interested in what you have to say. And then now I have to decide between Nithya and Karen.
SPEAKER_01Here's the thing as a big time Angela Angelino, like you know I fucking love this city. There's two things we really gotta fix. The homelessness is I must say, and I'm not I'm as liberal as I come, but I'm very like I'm very in the middle with things. Like, I could I'll tell you what's wrong and I'll tell you what's right. Like, you know that I'm pretty I'm pretty loud about that. Um the homelessness has got better. Like I'm not over I'm not gonna bullshit you, I'm gonna be the first person to tell you like homelessness needs to get fixed, but it has got better. Like it's not like if you go to certain places in downtown, yes. Like I was downtown on Tuesday, and it is a little gnarly, but there is like I'm seeing differences. You know what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_00You know, actually, now that you say that, remember when that road that goes down to Playa Delra was filled with an encampment? I don't know where those people went.
SPEAKER_01No, but that's what I'm saying.
SPEAKER_00It's got better, but it was all cleaned up, right?
SPEAKER_01Right. Even in Culver City here, it got better. Like there are so true. Yeah, I haven't even thought about it. No, I have I've been a little quiet about it because I'm like, it's LA's an impossible city. There's so many people, yeah, and like I don't want to get down the down the trap at all, but there's so many people, it's a tough place to govern. Like, it's not like that's why like I I I compare this a lot to El Salvador. There's a president in El Salvador that has done a really good job in El Salvador, and then there's a president in Mexico who's got to fight the cartels, who's got to fight the drugs, who's got to fight. There's a lot of things he's got to worry about. But this president of El Salvador has done a really good job in a very short time, but it's because the country is so small. And I love El Salvador.
SPEAKER_00But he's had mixed reviews, right? People have mixed feelings about it.
SPEAKER_01Very mixed, but it's but but but he's done a good job of cleaning up the country. That's what I'm getting.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01The Mexican president, she's I mean, it it's a tough gig. Yeah, and I'm comparing that to LA. Like, whoever comes into LA, this is not, don't think that's what's his name, Spencer or Chris? Like, like him coming to fix his homework problem, like that shit doesn't like oh absolutely. You know what I mean? Like, I don't know, like that stuff doesn't work, like this happened. No, I know, but it has been getting better, yeah.
SPEAKER_00You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_01In LA, there's not a lot of problems in LL in LA. Like, I don't want to sound like I'm like a like I'm a homer, but like, do we have like crime? Yes, so does every other city in the world, like but like I live we live in Marina del Rey, my parents live in like West Adams. You know, is there tough parts of the LA? A hundred percent. There are tough parts of every city in the world, you know what I mean? Yeah, but it is a tough city, it's a big city, there's a lot of people. You know, all these guys come in, I'm gonna do this, day one. No, you're not.
SPEAKER_00Well, I also think you love LA so much. I mean, you literally have it tattooed on you. I think that um someone running on LA sucks, you will never it will never work for you.
SPEAKER_01I I heard something today saying, like, if you're talking about how bad LA is, yeah, you shouldn't be running.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Like that shouldn't be you shouldn't be talking about how great LA is.
SPEAKER_00Right.
SPEAKER_01You know what I'm saying? Uh-huh. Like you shouldn't be saying, oh, it's so bad. It's so bad.
SPEAKER_00Well, that's how I feel about like him name-calling and stuff. I'm like, I just don't like the principles on which you're running. Like, that's that just seems like I don't trust you with because you can vote for people with the policies that they're presenting, but it's also just like things will come up, and like, do I trust this person to run my city? You know, yeah.
SPEAKER_01The more and more I've got into politics in the last like, I'd say like eight years, ten years, they're all it's all a bunch of bullshit. Like, it's really like there's nothing to it. To be honest, politics is so much bullshit.
SPEAKER_00What do you mean bullshit?
SPEAKER_01Well, it is like so fake. Everybody comes into power. It's it's a literally a money grab. You're literally getting into political power to gain money, like that's literally all it is. Like, you're not fixing anything. Like, you know what I mean? Like, you're in there to make bread.
SPEAKER_00Well, I don't think they make that much money.
SPEAKER_01Well, you know, okay, they don't like like they don't, but like on that back end, like in like trades and stuff like that. How do you think I think Trump's made like like two or three billion dollars since becoming president? Yeah, yeah, he's not taking the hundred, whatever how much he makes off being the president, but he is under the table making dough. And I don't want to get like I said, but it's all just like a money grab, I think. And uh it fires me up. And you're kind of like poking the bear a little bit.
SPEAKER_00I'm sorry. I no, I'm not meaning to. We can we can move off it.
SPEAKER_01I no, but it's so important that you have to know what people are doing.
SPEAKER_00Absolutely. And somebody needs to be tough. I'm also going to vote, and so I want to vote, yeah. Of course. I always vote.
SPEAKER_01I want to make an informed vote, and you have to be tough on certain people, like you can't just be so lenient on everything. I don't like handouts either. Like the let's let's get be so for real right now. So there, you know, I'm very down. Like, there shouldn't be handouts. I don't agree with that.
SPEAKER_00Who is running on handouts?
SPEAKER_01I'm just saying, because I am a liberal guy, like I am a con you know what I mean, but there's I don't believe in handouts. I think you gotta work for what you you earn. I don't mind billionaires.
SPEAKER_00Like, but I think if there's a broken system, I agree. I think that we can be like, hey, this part, this this is broken. These people have been systematically pushed down their entire lives.
SPEAKER_01Right, right, right.
SPEAKER_00We can find a way to uplift them, help them in a way. Right it's not a handout.
SPEAKER_01Right, no, they should there should be avenues though, for sure. There should be avenues.
SPEAKER_00It doesn't need to say here's a check for a thousand dollars, but it can say, hey, we need to open up programs that help these people get into college. 100% because they weren't raised on a way, you know. Like, I do think that when you look at the city as like a body, you can be like, hey, this arm is broken. We gotta fix this. No, I agree. And those people have been the uh, you know, they've like I think about like Cape Town. When we went to Cape Town, there's so much broken there because of what happened through apartheid, and it's like they they've gotta they can't just say oh it's all good now, let's just move forward. It's like no, there was a lot broken, and they have to help those people.
SPEAKER_01So they do, they do, they do. All it takes is one person too, like to like really make that change in a family, you know. I feel like, you know? Like I know a lot of people knock billionaires. Yeah, and I'm should they pay taxes? They should pay taxes. I a hundred percent agree. Like, there's no billionaire that that should get away with all these like tax stuff, right? Yeah, but if you work hard, if you work really hard, you should be able to make as much money as you want. I believe in that. Yeah, like if you work hard, capitalism. I do because if you work hard, you should earn you should earn what you work for, you know? As somebody who like my dad came to this country with nothing, and he's kind of worked his fucking ass off.
SPEAKER_00Absolutely.
SPEAKER_01You know what I mean? Like, look at you, like you've like we were you were down bad there for a while. Yeah, like in a college, and you've kind of worked your fucking ass off to get what you've got. You know, you've got you bought yourself a place, you have a car, you know what I mean? Like you've kind of and that's why I think in this country, it's such a beautiful country in that sense where like if you want to be something, you can. And it's one of the only countries that gives you that opportunity. And I do sound a little MAGA, but it's like I know I'm getting nervous.
SPEAKER_00I'm like, we should get on a different topic.
SPEAKER_01No, no, but I I do believe in working hard. Yeah, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00Like of course, that's what I'm saying.
SPEAKER_01And that's not like I don't think that's really a controversial thing. Like if you were correct.
SPEAKER_00I don't think that's a controversial thing. That's what I'm saying, but like but I do think that there are there are people uh that never even knew that they had the opportunity to do that, or they've been told their whole lives that they can't do this, or that they don't have like if you're that's a little bit of a victim mentality though, too. Well, no, I think that if they I think that they should just have opportunities.
SPEAKER_01I agree, I agree. Opportunities like yeah, like college is like way too expensive. Like this has gone out of hand. The college stuff has got way out of hand, you know what I mean? Like, I think L I was talking to my buddy, my boss Kurt the other day. I think LMU is like $90,000.
SPEAKER_00No, LMU was fucking insane. I can't even talk about it. And it was insane when I went and it was $50,000 a year, yeah, and that took me so long to pay off. And the fact that it's $90,000 a year.
SPEAKER_01And not to say that college is the only way you're gonna be like successful because it's not. You can because there's a lot of avenues of like becoming like go to trade school, yeah. Starting your own business, right? Like there are just so many opportunities. I think America is like, I love America for like what it is, love like how it's built to be like what you could do whatever you want to do here. Yeah, you know what I mean? And like, do some people take advantage of that? Like, are some people born on second base and they have a better opportunity than the most? A hundred percent. But I also think like it takes one person in a family to really change that, yeah. And I think that's where America gives you that, like, you could do that here. You get what I'm saying? Yeah, so like, not that it's like obviously, like, I think our president is shit, like, I think like all that, like, don't get don't get like don't get it twisted. Like, I think Trump's a piece of shit. Like, but like it America as a whole, I'm talking about, like, to the core, which is why I think it hurts me so much of like how divided we are right now. Yeah, because I think to a core, a lot of us are the same.
SPEAKER_00100%. You know what I'm saying? So that makes me really sad too, because I agree.
SPEAKER_01Because it's like I it bumps me out to not celebrate America anymore. Because I loved America, yeah. Not that not that I don't anymore. I do.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, but it does feel I mean, even like the American flag feels like it's it does.
SPEAKER_01It's coming, it's almost like the other side's like mascot. You know what I'm saying? Like I'm almost like when we go to like, and not to say Europe is a great place either, but like when you say you're from America sometimes, like you're like, oh, like, you know, we're we're having to apologize on vacation, you know. It's like, no, we're not that, you know.
SPEAKER_00Um, but but I agree. I think like at the end of the day, if you put like us in a room and like a MAGA family in a room, it's like we all just want to like do well for our family and like you know, make our parents proud and like have our kids do better than we did. Like we all have the same thing at the end of the day. I think I think the problem often is like like they say when you go to college, you know, you often become more liberal. And I don't think it's because you're learning much. I think it's just because you're exposed to people that don't look like you and aren't like you and are from different phases of life. So I think the problem is just that a lot of people cannot empathize. Like when they're like, you know, no more immigrants, we're done, you know, everyone from Mexico is rapist and what did he say? Rapist and whatever and and drug dealers. It's like that's just because you haven't loved a Mexican before. Like you just don't, you've never met somebody like that.
SPEAKER_01That's also hypocritical of like him to say that because he has all them working at his own. Oh, yeah, no, I mean that's like that's what you're talking about.
SPEAKER_00But but but what I'm saying is that I think that's where it all stems from, is just being like, oh, you just you're just lacking the empathy. Like, I I almost just want to like get I want to take America and just like shake it a little bit and make everyone talk to each other, and then I think everyone will be more empathetic.
SPEAKER_01Well, yeah, no, a hundred percent. I think like everybody is really I think what's going on right now in the world, like especially in America, it's like they've given these people the platform to be loud, you know what I mean? But when you look deep down, like it's really just people like I think we've talked about it, people had that haven't traveled, people that haven't like everybody looks the same in their small town, like everybody talks the same way, everyone speaks the same language, right?
SPEAKER_00And and and it's also and it's like they oh, they've never like had a gay person in their life, so that they're like, oh, I don't want that gay person to be able to get married because that feels scary and weird, and it's like the gay thing to me is so fucking weird. Like, I don't even want to get into like we should call this episode everything you're not supposed to talk about.
SPEAKER_01Like, it is I don't the thing that pe that how people are so fascinated on gay people and trans people is so weird, it's the weirdest fucking obsession.
SPEAKER_00I'm also like we have real problems. Like we have like a we have a serious drug crisis in this country. We have homelessness, we are in a recession, spirit airlines is gone, and why are you worried about this woman and that she is a woman and she was born a man? Like, who fucking cares?
SPEAKER_01The gay trans thing to me is the weirdest fucking obsession that people have over them. Like, I don't even I don't even know where to start. Like, that is it's just weird. Like, yeah, why are you so fucking fixated on them?
SPEAKER_00I agree.
SPEAKER_01Let them fucking be, they don't bother anybody first off. Like, yeah, first off, they don't bother anybody. No, they don't and trans people are like one percent of them. Trans and gays don't want to hang out with straight people. Like, like, let's be so for real. Like, they think we're the most annoying pieces of shit on the face of you.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01Even like, look if you go to West Hollywood, like they don't leave West Hollywood. No, they're like the most peaceful rage and they rage, they have a good time.
SPEAKER_00Because they're they are celebrating that they can feel themselves now, and as they should. When I go to like a gay bar, I'm like, I'm so sorry I'm here. Like, this is your territory, but also they've always been so welcoming to me. Like, no one has ever made me feel like I can't be in that space.
SPEAKER_01I play in these gay uh pickleball tournaments, right? Yeah, and I get fucking waxed, like pause, but like I get like killed because you know they're they're they're like amazing at like they're fucking unreal, you know what I mean? Yeah, and their companies, they're they're good spirits, everything is in good vibes. It's just such a weird fat fascination that people have with the gays and the trans that I've never I haven't been able to wrap my head around. I think the only it's a sky daddy that bothers it, you know.
SPEAKER_00It I think it has to do with religion, but which let's not get into religion because I really bought it. Now we're really getting no, but I I yeah.
SPEAKER_01Um but I think the gay thing is the gay thing really bothers me though. Yeah, but that's one that really, really like I am just like I think at the end of the day, I just hate bullies.
SPEAKER_00And I sometimes I feel like political stuff when it comes to social causes are just people bullying other people. Like you're bullying that trans girl, you'll you're bullying that gay person, you're bullying Mexicans. Like, stop bullying them. Like they're just like living their fucking life.
SPEAKER_01You know what those people have in common though? Like they don't give a fuck.
SPEAKER_00Well, they do when they're when they're when their uh lives are being.
SPEAKER_01They do, you're right, you're right, you're right. They do kids. They do, they do kid then, but like the whole ice stuff that was happening, like it's so funny because it's like the kids of the parents. Or the the the kids of the does that make sense? Like the second generation. Like the parents are gonna be like, I'm still gonna go to work. I I like I need to buy food. Oh, yeah. I need to work, like, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, you mean like uh uh people who are protesting ice, it's usually like the children of the immigrant, and the immigrant is like I gotta go work.
SPEAKER_01And the immigrant's like, let them say, like it's okay, like let them say it doesn't bother me. I'm still gonna work. I still got I still gotta go to work, you know what I mean? Yeah, um, yeah. So how did we get on this topic? And you know this fires me up.
SPEAKER_00I know.
SPEAKER_01And I've had to hold back a lot. I've been sitting here like pacing.
SPEAKER_00Really?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, because this this is the one that really boils it up.
SPEAKER_00I'm sorry.
SPEAKER_01No, it's okay, but it's funny you brought it up.
SPEAKER_00Well, no, we talked about uh Spencer Pratt that you call Chris Pratt. That's how we got here.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00But we will be voting in the mayoral election. We are voters.
SPEAKER_01We are voters.
SPEAKER_00Um, we are bring back spirit airlines. We want to bring back spirit airlines. We love Devil War Spada. Everyone should go watch the movie.
SPEAKER_01That's right.
SPEAKER_00I would be so curious to hear other people's thoughts on it. Because maybe I'm just like a little sensitive Sally.
SPEAKER_01I think it just hit home a little too close, I think is what it was.
SPEAKER_00I think I'm really I I you know it's so crazy. My friend Asha moved to London. All right. I was on a Zoom with her today, and she sold her house in Encino, and I'm like, and she's like, and I haven't skipped a beat because Hollywood isn't a place anymore. Like it's a state of mind. Except I will say I do drive into the off office every Wednesday.
SPEAKER_01I don't believe it. I don't believe that. Oh, really? There's one of your quotes that one of your actually I'm not gonna say the quote that one of your friends said because I I do believe in that quote, but I don't there's you have a lot of writer friends and I don't want to say well now you have to say it.
SPEAKER_00No, I don't, I don't want to understand it.
SPEAKER_01I don't want to offend anybody.
SPEAKER_00Oh yeah, yeah. Okay.
SPEAKER_01Because there's a lot of you know people that still have hopes in this industry.
SPEAKER_00Oh, you think the industry is dying?
SPEAKER_01No, I don't think it's dying.
