[music] Welcome to the worst week yet, the least informed podcast on the left, it's a podcast where every week we remember the real January 6th. That's right, Kennedy's birthday. Happy birthday! [screaming] A day that shook our country's values to the core. A lot of people don't know this, but storing... ...are still happening to this day. A day that changed the fabric of our nation forever. A lot of people don't know this, but all those folks that you saw storm the Capitol, they thought Kennedy was in there, they were bringing them a birthday. They always edit that out of the fucking footage. It makes a lot of sense why Donald Trump was saying, "Let them eat cake that day." It was about, yeah. It was actually Donald Trump using your correct pronouns, that's crazy. Wow! Shouts out to my personal best friend, Mike Pence. You know, underrated. He tried to remind people, "Wait, you're getting it wrong, this is about Kennedy's birthday." And then Trump was like, "You're a traitor, it got out of hand." Whenever they were saying, "Hang Mike Pence," it was like a game of telephone. The original message like where it started was like, "Oh, I can't wait to hang out with Mike Pence at Kennedy's birthday party." Right, right, right, right, yeah, telephone. You know, one person tells one person tells another person tells another person. It just gets muddy up, you know. Everybody has a one-tell Tina, you know. Oh, one-tell Tina, haven't heard that one in a while. I know, that was a throwback to the earth. That's a throwback to not a podcast bit, just a friendship bit. Yeah, just a little something that we used to say when we still had fun. Or friends besides each other. One would argue that making a joke about being friends with Mike Pence is sort of a self-burn, but I think that Mike Pence would be far more horrified to be friends with us. I think, you know, Kennedy, implying that you're friends with Mike Pence, it's not a burn, it's not a known, it's really a testament to your ability to adapt to any situation, no matter how horrible and how to make a friend in any, in any room. Oh, I've got friends in the white house. In white places, yeah, in white places, oh, mother, my goodness. Oh, folks, welcome to the 1,832nd day of 2020. It's the year that just won't stop. This is great. Yeah, I looked up how many days has been since January 1st, 2020 or 1832 as of January 6th, which is the day this episode comes out, AKA Kennedy's birthday. You know what's crazy is that like you just looked that up, which is a practical thing to do, but I would have been like, okay, well, it's been this many years. Let's multiply that like I would have done some unnecessary math. Oh, it's very unnecessary. I often will look up how many days since this day, like I looked up. I looked up how many days I've been alive and I feel I remember feeling whelmed at the answer, not overwhelmed, not underwhelmed, just whelmed. Yeah. People don't feel whelmed enough. Honestly, that is that is Deanna and I's default feeling. I definitely is Deanna's default state a hundred percent. Yeah, it's, you know why it's because like I'm simultaneously over and underwhelmed. And so it, it just meets in the middle. Yeah, it doesn't balance out in a good way, which is why it's still whelmed. Yeah. Yeah. Um, impressed, distressed, you know, all the things. Can I just say, you know, before we go any further listeners, last week we had an in-depth conversation about, um, how terrible my bed sheets were, my sheets, my pillowcases, you know, my thread count. I want to make it clear that I've never laid on them or touched them with any part of myself other than my hands. Like I didn't, I was making claims about how they would impact one's face and hair, but I did not apply the pillowcase to my face or hair to check. But the reason I wanted to bring this up to revisit old talking points is why did you why did you bring up this incredible cell phone? Because of that conversation for the last fucking week, I have not been able to get comfortable in bed because I can't stop thinking about every feeling on my body. My, I can't not. Do you understand? He's just running an autism, I love that for you. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you did this to me. I do it. I do it to me all day long for 35 years. They say vaccines cause autism actually it's Italians. Hey, all my parents did, you know what my grandparents are all cousins. This is. I'm sorry. What? No. Yeah. My dad's parents are first cousins and my mom's parents are also first cousins for the community. The family tree is a wreath. This is the most fucked up thing that has ever happened on the show. What is going on? We're supposed to be talking about my crusty as bed sheets. Well, you know, I thought I would put out a cell phone. Okay. I'm mentally ill because all my family shares too many alleles. Yeah. We're destroying you too often and Deanna thought she'd just throw us a phone. I guess. I mean, that's like an incredible thing to just put out there on a podcast is that your, your, your, your grand, your great grandparents or whatever was cousins that was fucking. No, not my great grandparents. Nope. Your grandparents, my grandparents, my great grandmother's, my mom's grandma on her mom's side and my mom's grandma on her dad's side. Sisters. Yeah, they were like, our kids should fuck. This is crazy. Um. Okay. Wait, were they really cousins or was it just a situation where they were all at, all of garden because, you know, when you're there, your family, no, no, okay. They were blood, blood cousins, space for that defying gravity. Um, I mean, I appreciate you trying to make it less weird, but unfortunately it is equally as weird as we all hoped it wasn't. Unfortunately, though, I'm also telling everyone if you kiss anybody in an olive garden, it's insane. Wow. If you ever want to feel truly alone, go to an olive garden by yourself. I can't believe browsers never shot a film in an, in an olive garden. Step all of, um, yeah, I don't step breadstick. I've lost the plot. I'm just imagining going to an olive garden by yourself is like, you know, that meme where like everybody's looking up from the table, like, oh, you came out of your room that people post it like Thanksgiving, you know, like that's what it, that's what it feels like if you go into all of garden alone, everyone's like, Oh, you showed up alone to all of garden. Hey. Oh man. My life is sad. We've got a patreon, patreon.com slash worst week yet. If you sign up, you can support the show. You can get access to semi frequent bonus content. We just put out our top five lists for 2024. It was a very fun episode. Um, it's, it's my birthday. Fucking Andrew gives me some of this money usually, usually, um, the also patreon. This is unrelated patreon changed their pay schedule. So I got like, and it used to come all at once. Like I would get like the entire patreon money. Then the other day was like, we sent you $35 and it's like, what? And but also I got the email saying they sent it, but I didn't get the money. So I don't know what the fucks going on with patreon. Is that a scam email? Don't click anything in there. I didn't even open it. I just saw the thing in the head like maybe just cash at me. Listen. Yes, send us an envelope full of cash and, uh, tonal clippings to patreon.com slash worst week at if you gave $10 a month, we say your name. So a big, oh shout out to AJ from Baltimore, Nate Spud, Chauncey, Anders Pablo Hummus, childless cat, dad, old hobgoblin goblin mode, andrea humph for you fuck like my dad, the man in the west, Optimus crime, zap actions down her nandy, angelist, brand, Dracula, 206. Why not? I pay more for only fans. Josh Truppen, terminally online leftness in next mega force base and CIA brain bugs. Also, uh, Darren is awesome. His reopter pledge. So fuck yeah, they're welcome back. Well, they had just dropped it down to a lower amount for a while. I know, but, you know, now he's in the VIP room, I'm happy because I feel like that means the material conditions of Darren is awesome's life have improved. Like that was like thinking of us, but like mostly I'm stoked that like the material conditions of your life have gone back to a place, you know, yeah, I hope that you got like a little raise at work or something like that, or a better job or, you know, something good like that happened to you. And then you were like, oh, let me give my favorite podcast or my favorite podcast. What I hope happened is sometime in the, sometime in the summer, you were like, you know what? I'm going to start making weird, weird deals with myself. And you were like, if a CEO gets assassinated by the end of 2024, in 2025, I'm going to re-up my pledge to, to worst week yet. And you're like, that's never going to happen. Well, I could have been awesome with something else positive to like maybe quit smoking, right? Yeah, I think maybe this person quit smoking cigarettes or some shit like that or quit some other bad habit that was expensive. They quit buying lottery tickets because they heard Deanna talk about her lottery ticket nonsense one too many times and they were like, I'm delusional. I got a hundred dollars worth of scratch off tickets for Christmas. And if I win any sizable amount of money on any of those tickets, I am going to buy the Lego bar, a door. This is the, okay. I was going to say you were going to buy a plane ticket to my house and then beat me up. This isn't the place for doubting you about the lottery tickets. That isn't the craziest thing you've said on today's episode of our very young episode. This is very early on, but there's already been two. It is definitely the second craziest thing. You got a hundred dollars worth of scratch off lottery tickets for Christmas. Yes. You still haven't scratched them off? No. That's insane. No, because I get like, I get the long ones like they're like the crossword ones or the bingo ones that like take a little more time to scratch. And also if I scratch them all at one time, then it's like over and like, I'm going to want to scratch more tickets next week. Did I ever tell you the time that I watched an hour long YouTube video of this guy just bought a thousand scratch off tickets and scratched them all to see how much he would profit? Is this why you love being my friend because that's how I just behave? No, this was just like a, it came up and it is addictive content kind of thing. And I just couldn't stop watching it. I felt bad about myself afterwards and I feel medium about being your friend. Let's see. I feel medium rare today as a person. More. This issue is why like, although I play the Pokemon trading card game, I buy singles that never open packs because once you start opening packs of things like that, once you start scratching things off, things like that, those things are too tempting. They're too tempting. That's the other thing. I'm like trying to work on some like delayed gratification things. So I'm stretching that out. Also, it's like they're like Schrodinger's lottery tickets right now, like as long as I don't open the box, I don't know if the lottery tickets are winners or not, you know, so theoretically they are, they are whatever I believe. Yeah, sure. But when is she got the money and then make it rain? Come on. Yeah, buy me an ice cream truck. Do you also want some overpriced recreational plastic? No, I don't like I said, I can't start because even if you bought me my $400 Lego set, I would still be running up my credit card within days, maybe weeks. Well, because here's the thing, you want a bunch of money. I'd be like, Deanna, buy me the most expensive video camera. I would never buy myself or something like that. You know, like if you won like a million dollars, what's crazy about that is that I would go into the video camera store and I would have to ask for two. Like I would have to buy two and I feel like that would be rare for them. Yeah, um, let's see great day for that store. Yeah. If you win the lottery, buy me bedsheets. I need you both to know that like the maximum win on any of the tickets in my $100 ticket stack is $200,000. So I feel like bedsheets would be doable. Yeah, much more realistic than an $87,000 camera. I think you should just be my friend by birthday. You know, what the fuck? And then what's like Jeff's birthday is February 5th and he's the other, I have to come up with a $167,000 between now and February. Yeah, it's not a big deal. Yeah, I don't see what the problem is. Um, okay, all right, just buy me, just buy me the full art Pikachu. All right. It's, it's $400. Doable. Manageable. For sure. Hell yeah. How much is a nice pair of bedsheets? Well, I can be not like insanely nice, but like one that you would want. How much would you spend on bedsheets, Deanna? Don't ask me that. About $86. Okay. Okay. I was also, I was actually also about to say like $80, $80 maybe, like for like really, for very, like, I'm not saying that's what I have to have personally. I'm saying like, you know, I have like a couple of sheets that are more in that range. And then I have some stuff that's more like 40 bucks and it's fine, you know, I stayed at this hotel. Are you in like $17 sheets? No, the ones that I just got, like, because I literally had bought new sheets the day that, because somebody gave me an Amazon gift card for Christmas, uh, I had gotten new sheets the day that Deanna was here. And so she hated the sheets that I had on. She tested out the new sheets. She said, wait, did I test the new sheet? Well, you felt them. Cause I had them in the thing or whatever. Oh, yeah. Still dry. Yes. Yeah. So I literally had just bought new sheets and again, they were like 45, 50 bucks, something like that. Cause I do like the, the Jersey sheets. It's like feels kind of like a t-shirt, but again, now I am like thinking about sensory feelings too much and I can't get comfortable in my bed. Um, Oh, actually before we get into the news, I did want to talk about my year so far. Like I know as of recording, this is only day five, but I've been switching some things up this year. Um, first of all, uh, I took Twitter off of my phone, which sounds small. It's crazy. It might dip like my minute to minute hour to hour day to day life has completely changed. Yeah. It was like that when I took Twitter off my phone and I was saying guy on, it was like a long period of time had passed where I had changed my habits. And now like, Oh, look at it, but I don't like check it obsessively, like 25 plus times a day or, or, you know, whatever, even more. Yeah. Blue sky. I mean, it's definitely, it's not that it's like dead or anything, but it's just not the same kind of like rapid fire interactions as Twitter. It's nowhere near that yet, um, at least for me, uh, and also Deanna, like you can't say I've been saying you were never on Twitter the way that I was. So like our situations aren't really comparable. Yeah, but I was never on Twitter the way that you were because I knew what, how it would impact me if I were. Yeah. But it's a change for me. It's a big change for me is what I'm saying. Also have had zero cigarettes this year. That fucking sucks. Big time. Don't like it. Yeah. Also, uh, have not, uh, I'm doing at least for January. No porn. Are you trying to like hard reset your dopamine receptors? Kind of unique. Yeah. Um, so it's been a, it's been a weird year so far, not, not really liking it in any way. Wait, it's say more about how your life has changed since the leading Twitter off your phone. Like it's totally changed your minute to minute day to day life, but in what way the listeners want to know just because the like, I, this is going to sound kind of dumb, but like I never really felt like I was alone because I was constantly like just the like never ending like not conversations, but like there's pretty much no time where I wasn't like at least kind of having some kind of interactions and now it's like much more like Oh, I'm by myself. I don't know. Wait. This is actually really interesting because I was just talking about this kind of stuff with somebody the other day about how like, like I feel like everybody treats all situations because of social media kind of like they're at work all the time in some ways in the sense of like how we police ourselves and how we're like struggle with like honesty and integrity and self care and things like that as it like societally. Uh, so I think it's really interesting that you're noticing that effect because I, I definitely think that like a social media can like kind of like make people into these weird creatures that are no longer able to be authentic whatsoever. Yeah. Definitely. Definitely. And it's in different ways depending on your preferred social media too. Yeah. I think about how Mr. Beast has said, I think we've talked about this before maybe that the YouTube algorithm has massively influenced his personality because like, he just like based himself around like trying to be successful on YouTube from like a young age, you know. And so it's like, like, yeah, that guy, is that guy capable of being authentic? Can we trust anything he says no, no, no, I was having, I had a new client in the salon yesterday who is 22 and they were talking about how they admired that I was like they said that I had a really curated vibe and I was like, I that is such a 22 year old thing to say. Like not, not that it's not to discount under anything, but yeah, but I was like, I don't like, I haven't curated a vibe, like they were then like contrasting themselves that like they don't really know like how they want to present themselves and like this and like, like they weren't presenting a co some cohesive version of themselves and I was like, neither am I like I never set out to like present a cohesive version of myself. I am just presenting myself, like I'm just here and it feels cohesive to you because I haven't like cherry picked pieces and parts that I think people will like and dislike. I'm just here and if you like it great and if you don't leave, like it's fine. If you don't like me, I'm okay. And they were just like, how do I do that? I'm like, well, first of all, get off social media because the notion that you have to curate yourself into a cohesive version to be likable is that's where that's coming from. Like you only think that I'm more curated than you and you need to be curated because someone, everything else you're seeing is curated. Like I'm not curated, I'm actualized, just actualize yourself and you will feel curated about living. Yeah. And the fun part is, is that once you're actualized, you can still just kind of suck. Yes, I'm free. You can just be like the average person has like a bunch of good stuff about them and a bunch of bad stuff about them. And like once you're actualized, you realize like, oh, we're all kind of like a fucking mess with some like great redeeming qualities and some atrocious ones that are disgusting. And like, I do think that the people that you're around then are in some ways a mirror. So then like, I think to myself like, okay, are the worst qualities of the people I spend my time with mirroring qualities in myself? And if so, do I like that, like do I want, do I like that or not like that? Okay, do I want to improve it? But it's not like, uh, I'm going to select out an archetypal personality from what's available to me on the internet and then try to become my own version of that. Like, I don't know, it's giving like 80s movie, like, is she a goth? Is she a jock? Is she a clean girly? Like, no, you can just be stuff, a bunch of messy stuff and be fucking fine. Yeah, I hate social media, I think it sucks. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's, it's not good for what it does to us. And like, I don't want to say that I'm like off it entirely. I still have it on my desktop and I've been home pretty much every day. So I'm like, still sat there for a couple hours each day, but like, it's like went before I had it when I had it on my phone, it'd be like, okay, when I'm on the toilet, I'll look at Twitter, when I'm cooking dinner, I'll look at Twitter, when I'm laying in bed, I'll look at Twitter, when I'm like outside for a smoke, which I haven't done. But you know, like I said, like this constant, like my Twitter feed was open almost all day, as opposed to now it being like, like an old, like my space where you had to go to the computer to be on it, kind of a deep. Right. Right. Right. Yeah. No, I, I kind of like that vibe to you a little bit. I try to interact with social media a little bit more in that way as well to an extent. I just don't, I've just been trying to like, you know, do Duolingo. Yeah. And like honestly, just also just play games on my phone. Like I think it's easy to convince yourself that like social media is somehow like a more valuable time spent than like playing a video game on your phone. But actually objectively playing a video game on your phone is probably time spent better in a lot of cases. I love it. I love, I love to use my little brain for stuff, like my business partner and my husband both tease me about my like recreational thinking and my, my scholarly pursuits, but I it was called anything other than recreational thinking. I think they would be wrong to tease you, but I'm on their side. I don't, I don't call it that. My husband and I were talking about, Jeff and I were talking about that, how much I like to read. And I was like, yeah, like, you know, I like to read, I like to pass my time. I like recreational hanging out, reading like that's a hobby. That's something I like to do. And he was like, yeah, but like that's not relaxing. And I was like, I think it's relaxing. And he was like, it's not relaxing how like watching a movie is relaxing. And I was like, I actually don't think watching a movie is relaxing. I think watching a movie is like kind of stressful. Um, and he was like, re reading is not a relaxation activity, like you are thinking. You're just hanging out recreationally thinking. And I like a record, I liked recreationally thinking, like I like, I'm playing Stardew Valley and I'm always like doing some little algebra, like, Oh, well, if I have this many tillable plots on my farm, I can do this at this rate. And these crops grow at this many days per crop, little math, little math time. Can you imagine a crop, a plot that wasn't tillable? Oh, embarrassing. Mm hmm. Oh, let's see. Let's see. We do have to talk about the new. Let's talk about the new. I don't. I don't want to. I've just been trying to put it off because I don't want to. So I had yappers remorse about, uh, talking about my grandparents being cousins. So I was trying to talk about some other stuff. So people would forget, but let's talk about some other stuff. So people will forget about some other people who are cousins. I wish we had a story like that this week. Wow. Oh, if only. Uh, but no, we do have a story about old people. Uh, Jimmy Carter, dead at 100. Last question, Mark. Now a lot of you, I, you know, I got a lot of emails and by that, I mean none, uh, that last week I predicted on our 2025 predictions episode, I predicted that Jimmy Carter would not die in 2025. And here's the thing that prediction is now a hundred percent true. Yeah. I don't know how you can be saying you're having a bad 2025. You're already calling the fucking shots. Now I did say, I did, my prediction was, if I remember correctly, a democratic president will die in 2025 and it won't be Jimmy Carter. So like, you know, Clinton or Obama, they still have one of them as to croak, wouldn't it be wild if fucking, if Obama, no mind this, that's crazy. That would be wild if Clinton was like, I guess I'm the last black president. Anyways, my brain just went there, um, yeah. So people are definitely going to forget about my grandparents now. I'm helping you out, Deanna. This is friendship in action. Um, I, you know, and I have, even after I insulted you earlier, incredible. See when yourself actualized, you can kind of be a piece of shit. Uh, it is crazy that this is like the first time that any like relatively famous person has died in like the last five years where nobody was trying to make it a conspiracy theory. Like it's, yeah, if you're, if you're doing a conspiracy about this hundred year old man that like looks like a fucking a, a Tim Burton caricature at this stage of his life looks like he's got some kind of fucking a, a made up fantasy disease or whatever. Like, if you're trying to make, you know, conspire about this, this guy, wow. We don't see a lot of, you know, we don't see a lot of presidents dying. Do you, did you know that Reagan died in like 2003? Um, yeah, he was killed in the Iraq war. I, uh, I mean, that was like just a little before I started like really paying attention to much. Like my politics began an end with ended with just no FX album titles, but I don't remember that happening at all. Um, so that's, I don't know. Yeah. So, but I mean, George H.W. was a few years ago and that was, you know, lackluster, uh, you know, didn't really go any way, you know, but that was, I, he was, I think that was before COVID. So it wasn't like we weren't so ready to call it a conspiracy or anything, you know, maybe it wasn't. I don't know. I feel like it was. I'm sorry. I have a conspiracy. Ooh. Again. Okay. I want, I, let's, let's, let's, let's come up with conspiracies about Jimmy Carter's death right now. He's still alive. That's the conspiracy right there. Um, my conspiracy is that, uh, Biden told Hillary Clinton that he would only give her the presidential medal of freedom. If she killed him, um, so she took a pillow for the Clinton body. Yeah. She took a pillow from Nancy Pelosi's house. She called her up. She was like, Hey, big nance. Can I borrow a pillow, um, not big nance. If she, if you call asking for big nance, she knows it's about to be good. She knows it's murder in time. She knows it's crime time. We're killing. We're not doing misdemeanors. We're doing federal fucking crimes. And she coughed up her softest downest rich person is pillow with her nine thousand thread count pillowcase made of like Orton's hair about the pillowcase. Do you know why? Don't you? Yeah. I was actually until you interrupted me and then, uh, and then Hillary Clinton put the pillow over Jimmy Carter's face. She smothered him and, and that's why she got the medal of freedom. I think he faked his death so that he could become the new Senate, uh, valedictorian. No, what's the fucking the Senate person, the one, the one that like vetoed the $15 minimum wage that we had never heard about them existing prior to or before or since the Benedictine senators. No, the one that lives up in the fucking belt, like a photo. That's also a church. The parliamentarian. Yes, yes. That seems like something Jimmy Carter is like, I have to be the smart person podcast sometimes because I want to keep riffing, but then I'm like the responsible thing to do is the answer the question. Yeah, we never have been able to move on. Right. I was just getting worse the longer they go. I was just naming religious orders. Then we went hunchback of GOP. Um, all right. Let's move on. Another person on this podcast is being like the goldfish that remembers 11 minutes ago. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Don't put that in your resume. Um, okay, we're going to move on to our next story, which is actually a two parter. Uh, and that is the story that domestic terrorism is, is it back? Is it? Are we fucking back? Uh, it's with us in our hearts every day. So New Year's Day, 2021, 2025, fucking Christ on New Year's Day. There were two separate, uh, maybe terror attacks. I think the one that definitely could be considered one. I don't know. So in New Orleans, like after midnight, uh, some guy like fucking drove his truck down Bourbon Street and like ran over a bunch of people. I think he killed 14 people and then got out and like started shooting people and got into a shootout with the cops and got killed. Wow. He tried to do a triathlon of terror. Truly, truly. He did also have bombs in coolers hidden on in the French corner. He really did try to do a triathlon. I guess they didn't go off or something. I don't know. Yes. I said that. Cause you know what? Sure. Well, you, you also knew about the bombs and coolers. I did. Oh, okay. My bad. My bad. Uh, well, yes. Uh, those didn't go off. So he will not be meddling. Deanna knows about anything involving coolers. Nobody's cooler than me. First green button of the year. All right. Honestly, thought it was going to be me. We should keep score. You know what? It's true. I'm sorry that Jimmy Carter didn't live the season because he loved guest squads as we know from his presidency. It should be you, but Kennedy doesn't have access to the green button and I'm too lazy. Fair enough. Um, yeah. So obviously this is terrible, this guy was like a former military, uh, veteran special forces guy. I think he served for like a decade or something. I don't know. Um, yeah. Horrible stuff. That same day. Another former mill, or I think this guy was a current military person, uh, drove a cyber truck up to Trump tower in Las Vegas and blew it up. Um, now this is, this one's interesting because like, this one is the, the, the, the. The guy in New Orleans was brown, so it's like everybody's like, Oh yeah, just a Muslim terrorist, whatever. Fine. Uh, also, even though he was born and raised in America and served in the US military, they tied it into it being an immigrate immigration issue somehow. Uh, oh, sorry. I said somehow I just meant to say because of racism, uh, don't forget we've moved from legal immigration is fine to legal immigrants. I don't know, buddy. Yeah. Um, the, the, but the guy in, uh, in New Las Vegas, there's a lot more, uh, speculations and conspiracies around him because he's a white guy and you know, everybody knows white guys can't, uh, blow stuff up white guys and ever do anything bad. I mean, unless they were tricked by their wives, am I right? Women. Um, the whole reason I got married to him to a white guy was so I could trick him into doing stuff. Uh, by the way, uh, my DMS are open. If anybody else wants to try that, uh, let's see. Yeah. This guy. So I don't know how we're as a podcast, we are calling this cyber Trump nine 11. Is that, is that correct? Cyber Trump nine 11, I'll accept it. Thank you. Thank you. And it's been, it's been, I was going to call it J six to, but it was J one. Anyways, yeah, but he's it was in the military and that motherfuckers like to be early. So there was first in an alleged email from this guy sent to some fucking right wing radio or pod. I don't fucking know, uh, where he was talking about the, the, the, the New Jersey drones and he was like, I'm doing this to like the government needs to speak up about the aliens. They're here or something. Um, so I saw that, uh, I have no idea the authenticity of it. I don't think it's real, but I also just didn't look. I haven't been on Twitter. So like I'm seeing things very sparingly these days. I don't know. Uh, I did see another thing from him that I think is real where he sent an email saying that America needs to wake up and that, uh, he didn't have any, he was a Trump fan. He voted for Trump. And so like stands the reason he's probably also an Elon Musk fan, uh, he said he was like, I don't mean this to do anything other than draw attention like this is an attack on Trump. Uh, but then he said this one thing that was really dark and he was like, America needs to wake up and, uh, and pay for all the lives we've taken. And I'd, I'd need to pay for the lives of something like, like where there was like this like tinge of like, Oh, does this dude feel guilty about the people he killed while in the military? He said he needed to cleanse his mind. Okay. That's what it was. The lives, the lives of people he knows that have been lost and the lives that he himself has taken. Yeah. So like big time element of PTSD, maybe I don't, I don't know. It's, it's horrifying. And also there's like video of him doing that. I don't know. There's like a lot of conspiracy shit. And again, I just like, I've seen it like briefly, but I haven't really looked into it. And I just assumed that all this shit is just fucking people that want there to be some alternate explanation other than a guy who is unwell and suffering and blew himself up. Um, I have a lot to say about this story. Okay. First of all, um, verified, verified. This is a hundred percent real. He sent texts to his ex-girlfriend that he was still very close to. Like as a friend, they had dated like many years prior, like from like 2018, 2021 or something like that. Okay. Um, uh, according to this article I read, um, and he had sent a text after renting the cyber truck and said, I feel like Batman or Halo about being in the cyber truck. Wow. I just fucking heard. I just really needed to share that detail, uh, uh, uh, just a lot of the other texts were pretty sad and, you know, I hope I'm never in a cyber truck. And if I am, I hope that I blow myself up. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, honestly, I think this is a pretty understandable reaction to being in a cyber truck, not to text the, the explosion. Um, also he, uh, uh, okay. Now most likely he just avoided I 70 because of the weather, but he did drive through Las Vegas, New Mexico and there's just a chance he put the wrong Las Vegas in his GPS. That's kind of funny. What, what is the other Las Vegas? Nevada. There's a tiny Las Vegas. Okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah. And you're saying that. Yeah. That's a tiny town of Las Vegas, New Mexico on his way and it's a tiny chance that he got mixed up. Like that he was trying to go to Trump tower in Vegas. Yeah. Like he was trying to go to Las Vegas because he definitely drove through Las Vegas, New Mexico, which is a town he just typed in Las Vegas for when he started and it's the first one that popped up was the New Mexico one, but he didn't think to check didn't realize that he wanted Nevada. He didn't know. There were two again, Mo, he was probably just avoiding I 70, but you can also avoid I 70 without going through Las Vegas, New Mexico. So I'm a little, I'm on the fence about it. I'm like, you know, because at that, at the time that he departed, I 70 was closed due to weather. It feels crazy to take across a cross state trip in a electric. How long does it take to charge a car? About depends on if you're at a fast charging station or not and depends on if you're trying to go for full, full charge from empty. Can you give me any eight hours or less? What? So like if you, if you wanted to drive somewhere where it's beyond a single charge range, you would have to, cause it's like what, like two, 300 miles, something like that is like the best ones. Instead of fast charger and especially on newer models, it's like two and a half hours, even that's fucked up. Um, I, this is, I'm coming out as pro gasoline, burn it all, baby. Um, okay, let's move on. Let's talk about Congress for a little bit. Ever heard of it? Wait, wait, we can't move on yet. I'm sorry. Sorry. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. I had an incredible phone call with my grandma this week. What? No. And she is a, she's a vote blue no matter who type of person. All right. She don't usually be hitting me with any kind of conspiratorial, nothing, but she said, and I want to discuss this conspiracy. She said, you know, those cyber trucks can drive themselves. What if somebody else shot him and framed him? Huh, this is the episode like, holy shit, that's a wild, that's conspiracy. And I want to discuss that with you. This is the episode where we find out that, um, my grandparents were cousins, but that I myself am actually that I am Kennedy's grandma and that the person we thought was Kennedy's grandma shot JFK. Yes. Deanna, you shot JFK. It's very confusing. Yeah. I'm, I need some string and a dart board, Kennedy called themselves Kennedy because they're grandma killed JFK. Yeah. They took that. I'm trying to throw them off the scent. Mm hmm. You're like, no, we love Kennedy's hidden in plain sight. Mm hmm. Anyways, no, I like that theory. I thought that theory, my own self, while I was recreationally thinking. So me and your, that's why I said this is where we find out that I am Kennedy's grandma. Oh, okay. Yeah. Cause that actually made no sense until now. Right. Are you said something really funny to me? And I think she needs the microphone. Rhea, Rhea, Rhea, the, the T and Kennedy T Cooper stands for the grassy knoll. Um, I love that Rhea to say that to us did not enter the screen. Like I was really excited because I was like, Oh, we'll get to see Rhea for a second. Nope. Wrong. Wrong. Congress. Congress, uh, it, the, you never heard of it. They keep doing it. Honestly, it's embarrassing at this point, but yeah, they keep doing Congress, um, this week, Virginia Fox, a Republican, Congresswoman from North Carolina, whose last name is spelled with two Xs, by the way, uh, she's 81 years old. And this week she fell down and bled all over the Capitol. Hell yeah. Dog is so awesome. And all these old people running around our government, it's like it falling down losing their mind, if I get pooping their pants and stuff like that. It's true. Why is every Congress person just like if me and Andrew were one person, but old, but combined our ages. Yeah. Like, like I do be falling down bleeding. Chuck Grassley is about to be the new Senate, whatever big, big guy. Third, third in line for the presidency. Yeah. He's 91 man. Decrepit. What the fuck are you talking about? See, a lot of people don't like that, uh, you know, we're being run by a gerontocracy. But honestly, I think it is kind of an accurate representation of our democracy as a whole, is that it's just fucking crumbling in front of our eyes. Like, my grandma is 93 and she can live only in a one floor house and has to have a special chair at the kitchen table that is actually like a recliner chair, but also tilt up to help her stand. And I'm happy that assistive devices exist for people who need them, but also my grandma shouldn't be like trying to run the country. She can't even walk from the bedroom to the living room. Like, I, she can't even really get up out her chair without help, but it ain't right. Yeah. Make her the president. I just, she's elderly and she should be living a restful life and she is. And so should these other elderly people? Yeah. Uh, it's just a little, it's a little fucked up for the people to be deciding how our future will work to not, uh, have any chance of seeing it. Sorry. Not sorry actually. Um, I mean, they just, they talk about how like, they talk about like women that don't have children having no vested future and that like, no, no vested interest in the future of the country. Like, what vested interest do you have? You're a fucking a hundred years old. Yeah. Yeah. Um, so another thing that happened in Congress this week, a friend of the show, Mike Johnson re retained his speakership role. Um, this is very exciting. I actually don't care. Uh, but, uh, what's funny about this though is just the circuit. Do you? No, I have no idea what this came to be. The circumstances of this are funny just because, uh, he passed a rule, you know, last time they came for his head, it was eight people. And so he passed a rule saying, well, now you need nine people to, uh, to, to do this. So then a letter signed by 11 Republicans was like, dog, you're on thin ice motherfucker right after he did that. And I just think that's really funny. Like you just like, he was like, well, if eight people don't like me, that's fine. I'll make it so that nine people have to, and 11 people stepped up immediately and we're like, yeah, dog, a lot of us don't like you, uh, uh, uh, you, you, you roll fire you in a second. It's so funny. That's such a cell phone. That's a cell phone. I do. But also nine and a nine and 11, never forget, never forget really important that we covered this in the podcast. It's the most relevant detail, um, I also think I've been seeing a lot of, uh, a lot of like people saying that like, Oh, Republicans have this like very thin majority. So it's going to be really hard for them to pass anything. And like, I keep thinking about this because, you know, not that the Democrats are smart enough to do this, but like they have this like gold and opportunity to no matter what happens. The Republicans control the house, the Senate, the, the presidency and the Supreme court, no matter what happens, they have a chance to blame everything on the Republicans. I feel like they're just setting themselves up to like not be able to take advantage of it by even acknowledging that the majority is slim. Like it's, it's still, it's still their call like they get to do whatever the fuck they want. Like, uh, I don't know. It's just, it, it's, it feels so fucking bleak probably because it is. Are you sure it's just because you haven't had a cigarette all year? That is absolutely a factor. I thought it might be, but also bleak. Yeah. Two things can be true at once. Let's talk. Let's talk something. Let's lighten the mood up. Let's talk tech. Let's say it's the tech tech, it's tech, it's tech, it's tectonic plates. Can we get a sound bite in here that's like, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, we can't. We can't. But we won't. That was the one. Oh yeah. Thank you, Ken. I think you should just isolate that and put it on one of the buttons. I think isolating something whenever we record on a solo track is impossible and if not impossible, very difficult. And honestly, even if it wasn't, I still wouldn't want to do it. What else do you do it? Yeah, well, you can plug it into like an AI and then the AI will tell you to like wash your clothes and make a gas that will kill you funny. You should mention AI Kennedy as I said, this is tech time. And our first story is this week, meta announced that they will be shutting down some of their fake AI profiles after a made up AI person called, or I forget her name, but she was a black queer momma went viral for sucking ass. So I'm sorry, what? There was a profile that it was just a picture of a black woman and it was like her bio was like proud black queer mom of children or whatever. And but this was a this was AI. This was a fake image, a fake profile, and it was a chat bot that would respond if you messaged it. So people started messaging it being like, Hey, what this is like digital blackface? What the fuck are you doing? And it kept responding like, actually, this is this AI is based off of somebody that the programmer knew who was a real black queer mom. Do you have a problem with black queer moms? And it's like, this is this is so like, could not be more perfectly designed to piss off fucking racist people, but like. So Christy, I'm a Gucci man, friend of the show for recent guest, just tweeted, woke DEI. That's really good. Damn, I missed that one. Yeah. Yeah, no, I'll just reiterate what I've been saying on social media, which is like, this is designed to funnel money away from actual marginalized people. It's designed to play Kate liberals and aggravate conservatives all at once. It's like the most evil thing imaginable, basically. Yeah, if you can, sorry, go ahead white dude programmers to be making money off of marginalized existences through fake profiles, placating liberals, while simultaneously enraging conservatives is like a cheat code to ensure that people will use your stupid fucking website. Right. I think that somebody, I think that somebody should have asked Kenza Laley, AKA Miss AI 2024, which she thinks about this. Oh, she's our guest for next week. We can ask. Perfect. Um, we should just, we should just, uh, we should just get somebody with a voice modulator. Yeah, or just, I'm revealing the bit already because it's not a good bit. Yeah, it's not a good, we should get a speaking spell. Um, we should get one of those storybooks that you press in it like reads random sentences. Mm hmm. I agree. Mm hmm. Anyways, uh, this whole thing is fucking batshit. And we were talking before about social media and the way that people are like just continuously interacting and the fact that like people are now just interacting with AI in these ways, it makes me feel mentally exhausted. Yeah. Cause like the AI slop images keep going viral, but like it's going viral because it's, it's starting, it starts off going viral because a bunch of AI profiles share it. So like it's this like, not a self-fulfilling prophecy, but like a closed feedback loop kind of it. I don't fucking know. An open feedback loop. Okay. That makes sense. It will be really interesting when like a majority of people get frustrated and start leaving social media because of the AI and then all that's left on social media is like AI spamming other AI like they're there. It's just a bunch of AI interacting with each other and fucking up ad revenue. It's just Siri talking to Alexa while the world burns. Yeah, I mean, we're basically approaching, you know, what people have been calling for a while like dead internet theory, which is like eventually all these corporations will just be like paying like shills or operating bots. And that's who's operate, that's all the people that are interacting with each other online. It's just like, that's it. So it doesn't look good. So I've been seeing, you know, while we're talking about meta, I've been seeing like so many or maybe more like hearing because I listened to podcasts, so many commercials for the new meta AI glasses that were like made in partnership with Ray band where it's like, it's so fucking bizarre that like they're claiming like this is a new technology. But like in the demonstrations, it's just the same thing as Siri. It's like a voice assistant like like, Hey, Meadow, how do you make the one thing that drives me really crazy is that it's like you wake up in the morning and you want to have a coffee. So you ask, Hey, Meta, how do I make an espresso? And it's like a brew two shots of espresso or how do I make a fucking latte? And it's like brew two shots of espresso. And it's like, okay, if you have the capability to brew two shots of espresso in your house, you know how to make a fucking latte, like, sorry, that part drives me nuts. But oh, espresso machine, you already know what stuff looks like you talking about. Also like the, okay, here's the thing, the most annoying part about this shit is that voice assistants are getting worse. Yeah. Like, like, like voice assistants were actually better a few years ago because all they could do was provide you with human generated answers, basically, right? Like, like they couldn't like provide you with a quote unquote intelligent answer. They had to just like Google it basically for you, which was great. That's perfect. That's what a voice assistant should do is just fucking Google shit for you, right? And now the voice assistants are like, oh, no, I'll come up with the answer. And so it's like, you know, you probably be like, hey, a meta, how do I make a latte and be like, you know, well, you start by putting a sock in the head, your father. Yeah. So I learned recently and there were some numerical data associated with what I was learning, but I'm going to fuck it up. So I'll just give you the general gist of which just us, the gist, the gist, the gist is the reader's digest version. Hey, nothing but just okay. This isn't just a show first of all, um, just in all over the place right now. So originally AI, like voice assisted AI voice assistants, AI, like any AI that you can ask questions like and get an answer, chat GPT, whatever, smarter, um, yes, smarter child. There was, uh, uh, there were parameters in place that were like the AI can only answer a question with a hundred percent certainty. And then it was like 80 percent certainty. And then it was like in impacting investment funds that, uh, like, like who was investing into their technology because they wanted a high, they wanted higher levels of questions to be answered. So like if the bots can only answer questions that they are a hundred percent certain of, that means that there's a huge percentage of overall questions that they can't answer. But people who were investing into the technology didn't want to hear like, this is technology that can answer, uh, 20 percent of questions. So they kept lowering the thresholds on various AI technologies to, uh, uh, lowering the accuracy thresholds so that it would increase the percentage of questions that AI will answer. Which is why AI now is spitting out so much crazy shit because instead of the AI being able to be like, I don't know that answer or I can't answer that confidently instead it is churning out a bullshit answer so that the companies can say like, our AI responds to 88 percent of questions. And it's like it's responding with such low accuracy, but the metric isn't the accuracy. The metric is the, the, the, the KPI isn't the accuracy. It's the percentage of questions that the AI will answer. Gross. Yeah. Yeah, and I learned about that, uh, part in part, uh, from someone I know that works on self-driving car technology as a, as a programmer. So not like, like someone that is deeply involved in the tech industry. Yeah. And to be honest, I've heard something kind of similar from somebody who works with AI. And then I read about it in supplement to that. An incredible amount of what also is what's going on right now is just like covering their ass is basically it's just the only thing that these companies, the only way that they survive is if they can continue to pretend that they are growing. And the only way to pretend you are growing is to, is to, uh, never stop like offering new things that are, that they can at least like not confidently, but at least something that they can show investors be like, as soon as this works, we're, we're good. We're good. Well, that's just it. They're like, we increase the number of questions that our AI can confidently answer from this to that, but it's confidently answering incorrectly. It's like talking to a dumbass at a party who doesn't know they're fucking wrong, or who would rather make something up than admit they don't know. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's bleak. But all this to say that I've been hearing so many commercials for these new meta AI glasses, which is just a pair of Raybans with a camera and Siri in it, basically, basically. Uh, and the reason I wanted to bring that up is because this week, Apple, uh, stopped production on their vision. The fucking stupid ski goggles that they made that they were like, this is going to be the next big thing. Yeah. People are just going to wear these around. Nobody wanted it. Yeah. I mean, since Google glass over 10 years ago, they keep trying to make this fucking thing. They're like, oh, you're going to want these virtual reality glasses. You don't want to live in reality anymore. And at this point, it's starting to be like, why do you keep pushing this? Okay. Is it because you think that the planet's going to be totally fucked soon? Yes. And so like you're like, you're just like trying to get us to be okay with the idea of like a non planet, um, before it's like, you know, like before we realize, like, oh, maybe there's still a chance to like save our planet to some extent, uh, is if enough of us, uh, take some kind of drastic action and they don't want us taking the kinds of drastic action that I'm talking about. I'm talking about voting every day. Yeah. Vote early. Vote often. Vote daily. Vote and die, um, I, I, you know, my, my crackpot conspiracy, maybe they're trying to get us all on this AI. And that's how they'll like lull us and that's how they'd get us into the pods. You know, like in the matrix, oh, all right. So I have a question for the two of you, um, I, what, yeah, I'm, there's no doubt that I have a question for the two of you. Yeah. I guess when I said, are you sure I'm more was implying that you're going to regret asking, but go for it. No, no, not at all. So I have a couple of stories that all kind of play into each other, uh, about, um, Bernie's take on H one B visas, Elon Musk, and then, uh, Adrian Dittman, they kind of all go together. What about if we skip those and go to, uh, talking about Joe Biden to close out the episode and then bang out a little bonus episode where we can talk about those other three stories. I don't care what we do. Wow. Wow. Like an hour. I don't want to go for an hour and 40 on one show. You know what I'm, I'm down for this plan. I'll literally do whatever. I truly don't care. Okay. Uh, all right. So I have to figure out. So for the listeners, uh, at home, this is a great time to mention while Andrew's figuring out whatever the fuck he's figuring out, uh, if those stories that we just talked about not talking about on the main show sound to you, like something you want to hear us talking about. This is the perfect time for you to head on over to www.patreon.com/worseweek yet sign up for our Patreon and you'll get to hear us talk about, uh, H one and one visas and a sick man and Adrian's dick man and, uh, it's going to be heated. So, uh, definitely check that out. But yeah, we'll, we'll, we'll wrap up the main feed here because it's winter. Yeah. I'll leave. It'll be much colder outside, but then I can go somewhere warm. I don't care. But what say something for one of the last times our next segment is a continuing question that we have been asking since very early on in the history of the show. And that is, of course, what the fuck Joe Biden, yeah, you know, I beg to differ. I don't think that this is one of the last times we're going to be asking because I don't think he's like not just going to go away. I mean, in line with my prediction, I said a former Democratic president will die in 2025. Joe Biden is only going to he'll be a former president before January is over. Yeah. I mean, you're very long necessarily, especially with what he knows about the Clinton. Yeah. But Hillary, but Hillary still has big Nancy's pillow and she could put that on Bill's face at any time. Yeah. I think Hillary will be the only Democrat left one to rule them all. Deanna mentioned this earlier this week, Joe Biden, he's like, he's wrapping up his time in office. You know, he gave out, you know, pardons to fucking criminals and all that shit, which that sounds a little too glib. There were there are definitely a lot of people serving jail time that don't deserve it. But there are a lot of people that are part of some people that were good. Yeah. But then he also pardoned his son. Who is a criminal? Yeah. And a friend of the show. So this week Joe Biden had his award ceremony where he gave out the presidential medal of freedom to 19 people, including, as Deanna said earlier, Hillary Clinton also Bono and Magic Johnson, also pinhead from hell raiser, the guy with all the pins in his head, the needles and everything, which like my God, what a what a perfect name like, you know, you never see that guy was born with those pins in his head and his parents chose the name pinhead. Imagine giving birth to a baby full of pins. I mean, I'd like to not imagine that. Well, we're all imagining it now, regular trauma of his three childbirth. I don't know if it's like, it's definitely worse, but like, I'm rotating a cow in my mind instead. You know what, Kennedy, actually you, because of your known neurodivergence, you do not have to imagine that. But because Andrew is just waking up to sensory discomfort, uh, yeah, wake me up inside. Yeah. Well, if you were given birth to a pin covered baby, I think you'd be woken. You'd be way the fuck awake in there with a way to fuck away. You'd be so woke. Yeah. I don't know. It's hard for me to say. And you know, obviously I will never experience birth of a pinned or unpinned baby. But you know, I don't know. I feel like it's so traumatic that it's like, yes, it's worse, worse, but like, is it that much worse? I think, I think the bad part is the, you know, cracking open your fucking insides and all that shit. I don't know. I think the worst part is that little, that not little big rip that you can get from your vagina to your butthole. Yeah. Oh, also the worst part is probably whenever the dad says we just gave birth like dog, you did not do that. I think the worst part is the fact that when that's all over, you have to shepherd a new person through this world and reckon with the fact that you created that lots of worst parts. Anyways, that's why I keep all my children safe in my ovaries. Yeah, that's why my fleshlights on the pill. Okay. A few of the presidential medals of freedom were handed out posthumously. This one was really surprising. Joe Biden awarded a presidential medal of freedom to George Romney, whose Mitt Romney's dad. He died in 1995. Why the fuck are we awarding this guy anything? Okay. If you've made it almost, or as of now, 20 years, 30 years, I can count 30 years. You don't deserve that award. Okay. Why the fuck are you giving that to him? What? I mean, here's the thing. He's been dead for so long. We are in fact free of him. He did. We are. He did. We are free of him. It's just like Joe Biden, always bringing up old stuff, you know? Well, he is old. It's topical for him. He actually thinks that happened last week. Yeah. You think that he thinks I haven't pretty recently. Whatever whenever he announced the award, they were like, we'll have to do that one posthumously and he was like, what? What happened to George? They asked him to keep, they asked him to talk at Jimmy Carter's funeral, and he kept accidentally calling him George. Yeah. Ask him talk at Jimmy Carter's funeral, and he was like, I'd be so honored to speak at Jimmy's wedding. I think the most egregious of the award, of the metal freedom winners was Jose Andres, the guy who started the world central kitchen, which, if you remember, from a few months ago into the never ending siege of Gaza, bombs supplied by the United States were used to blow up world central kitchen workers, directly authorized by Joe Biden. Like the fucking, I don't, I would not have, I would have said, fuck you, dude. You had my, my people killed, but yeah, he showed up and he cried. And he was so grateful and the world is a fucking scam. He also gave it to that soccer player that I was saving that for last because that's my favorite one. Well, I just want to say, you know, y'all had, y'all had a tried to convince me a while back that Joe Biden must be swaying in a big dick. I think I believe it now. First man out of control behavior, he has, he's got to have some kind of confidence that is undue and his, and his genuine from within, not the fake, like Donnie's a very special boy confidence that Donald Trump has, but Joe Biden, he looks down every time he takes a pee and knows he's a very special boy. Yeah, his condescension knows no bounds. So it's condensation knows no bounds every time the tip of his dick bangs against his knee when he walks, he knows he's a very special boy. Yeah, you don't need anybody to tell you he's on his seventh knee replacement, but it's just because his dick keeps fracturing his patellas. As, as Deanna was mentioning, my favorite of the presidential medal of freedom award winners was that Lionel Messi won a presidential medal of freedom and he didn't show up to the ceremony. He was busy. It's like, yeah, I got a scheduling conflict. Okay, like I get that this is like kind of like a, what does this even mean award, but also like dog, the president's like, I want to give you a medal and you're like, yeah, I got something to do that day. That's so fucking funny to me. I don't know. That's awesome. I do. I do like it. I like that he couldn't be bothered. He was like, can't you just tell Joe I was there? He won't know the difference. You all know the difference. Can we just stage a fake one for two weeks from now just for me and tell him that it's the same, the same one. So I also just wanted to briefly touch on the fact that Joe Biden also said that he is going to be giving two major speeches before he leaves office. Wait, hold on. Okay. My favorite of the presidential medal of freedom recipients was George Soros. And that's actually only my favorite because prior to this episode. We were texting about this and I texted Andrew a brief list of some of the people who won, including George Soros. And for like two minutes, he was so excited. And then was immediately crestfallen because he thought that my tech said George Santos. I sure did. My response was, let's fucking go. Yeah, and I just want to acknowledge like one, it's funny that he gave the award to George Soros to it's funny that Andrew thought it was George Santos. Three, let's just imagine that it was George Santos for a second because that version of reality is also really funny. I can't think of a man who deserves it more. Shout out to Mr. Santos, friend of the show. Yeah, I don't know. Oh yeah, that was a very fun minute and a half where I was like, I can't believe he fucking did it. He fucking did it. Joe Biden, zero good bits of his entire, actually, no, what was the one where he was like, I'm going to do a speech with like a red lit background against pure black behind me and just look as evil as humanly possible. I do think that was a pretty good bit. Yeah. Yeah. That is all right. I mean, relative to his, it was definitely his best bit, I think, it was definitely his best bit of the year of the term of the, of the, yeah, of his life, maybe, I did like the ice cream Obama vids, but before he was, you know, at the end in like 2016, I was like, these are fun. He's cute. I'm looking at an ice cream cone talking to Obama, knowing that he's been racist for his whole fucking life being like, yeah, this is my, this is my guy I work for. Like, I hate the world. Let's see. Oh, yeah. Like I was saying. What were you going to say? I have no fucking clue. speeches, Joe Biden's speeches. Yeah. He wants to give two major speeches before he leaves office. And the reason he said, this is crazy, he was like, I want to solidify my legacy before Donald Trump takes over like dog, your legacy is that you let the country fall to Donald Trump again. Period. And that abortion went bye bye. You know what, Kennedy? You're right. You know what? Here's the thing. I think in these two speeches, he is going to solidify his legacy, but not in the way that he thinks he is. And I'm fine with that. He's going to shoot his pants. Like he is going to just give us all one more shining reminder of exactly who and what the fuck he is. I believe the speech is titled the last great gas light. Hmm. The gas light anthem. Wasn't it a band? I think so. Yeah. Problematic. Um, yeah. So that's the news. It's been, you know, there are years where weeks are centuries happening, but what do you think I meant? Okay, Bilbo. Yeah, this is fun. It's good to be back with hands for another year. I'm excited. You know, we're very, very quickly approaching Trump 2.0. This is, you know, lots of, lots of weird stuff is coming down. Do we even have a story about Trump this week? I don't know what the fuck he's been doing. Neither. I mean, I, I feel perfectly comfortable assuming it's not good, but yeah, I really don't know what the fuck he's up to. He's like, I won who gives a fuck, dude. Mm hmm. Yeah. So, as I said earlier, please do go over to our Patreon. We will be talking about some exciting stuff. We, we've never even covered the Vivec fucking tweet about family matters or whatever.

Go on over to Patreon. You want to find out the real. Identity of Adrian Dittman. There's only one place where you're going to get the answers to that question. Hell yeah. Is it our Patreon episode? The only way to find out is to listen. So do that, uh, Kennedy, Deanna, do you have anything to plug? Uh, I want to plug my prediction that Donald Trump will interrupt Joe Biden at one of his speeches, the way Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift at the VMAs in 2009. I'm going to let you finish, but, uh, yeah, I hope that's, that's what I want to plug. Just think about that and enjoy, close your eyes, do some recreational thinking, daydream about some weird shit. I agree. Be best. Kennedy, what's up with you? What's, what's up with that podcast? I got a new podcast coming out. Hey, they, they soon. That was very, the most important election of our lives. Let's fucking go. The show about it's not about elections. I don't know what it's about voting every day. It's about voting every day. That is what the show is about. Yeah. It's a, you know, you, you, you listen to the show and you're just, you look down and there's a ballot in your hands, but like every several days, one lucky winner looks down and Joe Biden's huge dick 20 years ago is in their hands. Whoa, I just realized that even 20 years ago, his dick was like 70 years old. Yeah. That's, I mean, Joe Biden's like a hundred and 15 years old. I don't want that even 40 years ago necessarily. No, no, no. I also have another podcast. It's called the crumbling. You can find it wherever you find podcasts. It's fun. Um, so yes, uh, thank you for listening. Thank you for supporting the show.
