Silly Rabbit... Trends Are For Kids 10/29: Halloween, Brewers, Trump, Dune 3 Popcorn Bucket, Dave Rubin

0:00 Hello the internet and welcome to this episode of Silly Rabbit Trends are for Kids. That one courtesy of Snarfula on the Discord in reference to an ongoing conversation that we've been having about what foods are for kids, what foods are for grown-ups. I feel like it would be a fun exercise for us to just like do median age Of, like, who target audiences. I bet we could actually find that information, you know? Like, they have so much marketing data out there. I'm sure we could find who Yoplait is targeting and, like, where it falls. Like, is it surprisingly young? Who is their demo?

0:42 My name is Jack O'Brien.

0:44 I'm the sort of person who talks about demo information. I'm thrilled to be joined, as always, by my co-host, Mr. Miles Gray.

0:52 Yes, Miles Yo-Gray Yogurt in the building. So many Yo-Play messages I've been receiving from people. Yeah, it's kind of becoming my new 6.8 weeks obsession of just.

1:06 What's wrong? Has the fucking planet gone mad? You know what? I will say, also, very iconic. We were talking recently about how there's not a more iconic food packaging than the Pringles canister. Yoplait is pretty iconic. There's nothing else that's shaped exactly like that. You know?

1:25 Nope.

1:26 Exactly. It's kind of a nice.

1:27 It's a very adult shape, in my opinion.

1:30 It's a very adult shape.

1:31 A child couldn't grasp it. Child's mind couldn't grasp this sort of semi-conical... Yeah.

1:38 Why are you at base than at top? It's because you're an adult.

1:41 Yeah, exactly. Oh, idiot, you thought this spoon... Your spoon's too wide. You gotta adjust it for the mouth of the opening, not the base of it.

1:50 An adult would know that. Trying to eat this thing with a soup ladle. The fuck outta here.

1:58 What's trending? Who's trending? Where are we?

2:00 Hey, speaking of food for children, it is Halloween season. Candy season. I went and bought our candy last night. The 2,000 pieces that we require to stay in business for over an hour and a half in our neighborhood. Is that why you're texting? Yeah, I remember you texting me.

2:19 You're like, oh man, I don't know how I'm going to tell my kid he's not going to go to chess camp this summer because I had to buy all this fucking candy.

2:26 College is, you know, we're hoping for scholarship because it's fucking candy. It is way more expensive this year. It's not just me. The prices indicate that it was a 15% jump from last year, which was the most expensive year for candy prior to that point. Oh, my.

2:52 15% from last year?

2:54 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's just beating the shit out of inflation, which inflation is very bad.

3:00 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean... Greed.

3:03 Yeah, yeah.

3:04 Profiteering.

3:04 Yeah, yeah.

3:05 Inflation. That's what we call that inflation here in America. Since 2021, the average price of a 100-piece bag has gone up by a staggering 71%. Holy shit. Google searches for cheap Halloween candy bulk and where to buy cheap Halloween candy are also up more than 5,000% year over year. So that's, um, that because that's the only resources, uh, recourse that we have in this country, um, is to like find bargain basement shit, you know, like the sort of stuff that they, that you give out at like a cheap restaurant at the, it's like those mints that you would get. Yeah. Like nondescript that are loose. You mean like in that dish?

3:50 Yeah.

3:50 Loose mints.

3:51 Yeah.

3:52 Yeah.

3:52 Yeah. That are like chalky.

3:53 Loose mints that are put in the, uh, little crystal bowl at the front of a, Restaurant. Yeah.

3:58 That way you can taste everyone's fingers. That's right. When you, when you take your own mint. But yeah.

4:02 And, uh, people have also pointed out that in addition to rising prices, uh, that they're also, so they're blaming global cacao supply crisis, uh, which is, you know, the, the same method that they've been using since the pandemic to just give themselves an excuse for raising the prices. The other thing they're doing is they're using cheaper ingredients for their products, specifically during the Halloween season. And this kind of blew my mind a little bit. So the candy that you're going to get this week is not the same Reese's peanut butter cup that you would get during the summer.

4:49 Oh, they're packaging up like shitty B grade chocolate.

4:51 They are stepping on that shit. They're literally stepping on that shit.

4:56 It is, like, Reese's, actually, we're saying. They're also in on this, like, I don't know if this is, like, a broad trend or, like, this is, like, Hershey's. It's a broad trend. Wow, wow, wow, wow.

5:06 Yeah, Hershey's had to, like, come out specifically and be, like, we're not changing that product, but we're changing some product. Like, they get very, kind of, carefully worded when they're responding to these, but I mean, you can just look at the ingredient label, um, and it's, it's where it's, they're using something called PGPR, uh, which is polyglycerol, poly rice, rice and rice and oleate, rice and oleate, which sounds delicious.

5:39 I love that. A multiplier that is made from castor bean oil. Um, and so you're starting to see chocolate that's, um, you know, they're not allowed to label as chocolate. And so it will say, uh, chocolate flavored coating. So you can look out for that on the candy labels. Uh, but this strategy of changing the product to be worse at the key moment when your product is like, this is.

6:07 People are eating that.

6:08 This is the Super Bowl for your product. Like, this is the moment for you to come out and show everybody, like, all right, guys. What you got, man? This is fucking Christmas night for Santa Claus, for your industry. Like, this is showtime.

6:24 More than that, it's like, it's the real, this is like when you market your shit to the next generation of consumers. This is... All of my candy loyalties stem from whatever the fuck I thought was good from my Halloween haul.

6:37 In a previous world, that's what, yeah, and that's how companies thought about it. This is just such undeniable evidence, irrefutable evidence that capitalism is broken. They've just completely taken the consumer out of the equation. They don't give a fuck. about whether their product is noticeably worse at a time when their product is being consumed by the most people.

7:03 It's just a chance.

7:06 The bigger the audience, the more they're just looking at a line that says, well, that means demand isn't going down because it's Halloween. And so this is a chance to fucking shave the edge and make more money.

7:22 How do we just get kids off this shit? Maybe Jack, you should sit at your door rather than candy. Like, would you like a candy or a bit of wisdom? You know, And just see if you can get a couple, some wise kids to be like, you know what, old man, tell me something about the future.

7:39 No one is going to protect us. Reading about crumbling country, you know, like this was a big thing during the Cold War where they'd be like, you know, I hear like Russian toilet paper is like the extremely thin and, you know, at the end of Nazi Germany, like they were like putting like, sand in their soda or so like i remember there were like some weird details about like how they you know once they ran out of money they were still putting product out but they were just having to like basically trick people into thinking they were getting the same thing but like that's us now That's... Yeah, yeah.

8:16 That's what's happening. And for much different reasons. It's because these people are... It's not even because, like, oh, things are scarce.

8:21 No, exactly.

8:22 It's purely because they're just like, nah, man, we're trying to fucking suck the blood out of you.

8:27 Yeah.

8:27 At every opportunity.

8:28 You're drinking, you drive.

8:28 It's fuck you.

8:31 So... I don't know, man. Like I did the, the story's coming in after I bought our Halloween candy. Uh, I'm going to have to look tonight to see if it, if it's a chocolate flavored coating and I'll report back tomorrow, but God, um, not great.

8:47 Not great.

8:48 No.

8:48 And also the, the tariffs and the inflation and all the shit that they're blaming it on, like cocoa prices have gone down. So like the, the, the, their claim for why they needed to do this in the first place is, is no longer valid whatsoever. It's just extra.

9:08 I think you can always assume whatever a company is claiming, they're struggling with supply, but no, no, you're just creating a pretext to completely.

9:17 They've lost the ability to claim that because they've, they've fucked with us for so long. Um, all right, let's, uh, in a bit of, You know, the opposite of that, the opposite of like, uh, harsh capitalism ruling overall with no, uh, with inelastic demand. Uh, the brewers, Milwaukee brewers. You know, beat the shit out of our city's team who were the bad guy.

9:46 Our capitalist, oligarch, billionaire, evil Darth Vader team. And I'm glad they did.

9:52 Good. Good.

9:53 Good for them. They won their uh first world series last night and yeah you know they're heading into the postseason people you know the the dodgers had gone out and bought like the best they were already seen as the best or second best team in the middle of the season and then they went out and bought the best pitcher in the league and everyone was like well Now, like, it's not fun anymore.

10:17 What is this? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're just accumulating your weapons of mass destruction and saying, like, and this is how we're going to win.

10:24 Right.

10:24 Yeah.

10:25 It wasn't enough. I mean, I think that was, obviously, dumping cash on a roster isn't a sustainable model, but I'm glad because before that, people were like, well, sure, like, the only way to fucking win a title now is to be, like, one of these billionaire teams that can just make it rain constantly to get the best players in.

10:41 So it's nice to see, like, a quote-unquote small market team. doing the fucking business and winning the World Series. After watching us absolutely get our shit kicked in by the Brewers, I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah.

10:54 This is deserved.

10:55 And this team is old. And this.

10:57 Yep.

10:58 I'm glad this is... I didn't want to have that... Obviously, the Dodgers will always have that title hanging over them. But I was heartened to see the Brewers win. Also for my friends who are from Wisconsin. So I'm sure you guys are celebrating. And also for Bob Uecker, who... I, uh, the one thing that was really nice for me as an elder millennial was a tribute Fox did to Bob Euchre, who was like their longtime play-by-play announcer for the Brewers who passed away in 2025. So a lot like people would be like, oh man, Bob Euchre would have loved to have seen this, uh, this moment. And so they did this whole montage where they had his like voice kind of playing over some of like the key sort of moments through the post, their post-season run. And I

11:40 only say this is great because they didn't use AI for this shit. They did the thing where they go, well, we've got 54 seasons worth of Bob Euchre play calls. Let's just take those and overlay them on this. And we have like a nice moment where you hear Bob Euchre saying they won.

11:57 Yeah.

11:58 And I think for most people who weren't Milwaukee Brewers fans.

12:02 We learned about Bob Euchre through major leagues. The sports comedy. Yeah, yeah. So great. Did he start as a baseball announcer and then become an actor?

12:13 Because wasn't he the dad in ALF? Yeah. Was he the dad in ALF?

12:19 Or not the dad in ALF. He was Mr. Belvedere.

12:22 Mr.

12:22 Belvedere. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

12:25 The guy had it all, man. The guy was doing it all.

12:27 Range, too.

12:28 The character he played in Mr. Belvedere had nothing in common. Oh, wait. It was exactly the same as Bobby.

12:34 Yeah.

12:36 But everyone just said he's like a funny guy.

12:37 And I think that just naturally extended to him being like an actor.

12:41 Like it just started off like cameos. Like the sort of charisma that people are like, I don't know. Do you want to try flying this plane? You seem confident and cool.

12:51 Right, right, right. Exactly.

12:54 Well, speaking of seeming confident and cool, Donald Trump had another rally in Ohio, which is, you know, he likes to go there and he likes to talk about one thing. Yeah. John Husted's ass.

13:07 He loves it. This is where it all started. At this point, him talking about his ass is not news. But the reason I even talk about this is, like, the crowd was... Dude, heckler after heckler was interrupting Trump.

13:21 To call him out over Epstein. They were like, stop talking about his ass?

13:24 No.

13:25 They're like, you fucking predator! Epstein, pedophile protector! Get out of here! There you go, there's another radical left playbook, folks. A paid protester.

13:37 And then he went right back to admiring that strong ass of old Johnny. He got a great ass! Yeah, and he's got his eyes all up in it. Um, yeah, he just did the same thing again where he was like, I shouldn't have talked to, I don't even, it's not even worth playing. He's just like, and I.

13:55 Brought it up, but you know, I look back there, boy, it was powerful. And it was like, so now people have the privilege.

14:04 Now everyone's like, yeah, all right.

14:07 But he, he really is like, politician as open mic comedian. And like, he got a, he got a reaction of nervous laughter the first time he did it. And now he can't stop himself from going back there because he's just up there drinking in the crowd's energy. Just trying to do the weave as he calls it. I mean, send it.

14:30 The majority leader, John Thune, he was also at an event, and he was talking about Bernie Moreno, who's also the other senator in Ohio, and he's like, he's eye candy, huh?

14:39 Like, going on that theme. And it's like, what?

14:42 Guys, just like, If that's what you're into, then stop fucking oppressing people for being homosexual or something.

14:52 Or whatever this weird bandwagon thing. Clearly, it's like this thing, too.

14:56 Because if Donald Trump is the best comedian of them, then everyone is orders of magnitude worse than him. And they go, oh, is that the bit now? Say guys are cute?

15:06 Okay.

15:07 This guy's cute, huh? And then everyone's like, ha, ha, ha.

15:11 Sure.

15:11 Did he get a raucous reaction when he said that?

15:14 No, just like, people were more like, they were just more like, oh, sure, right, because the president is fucking losing his mind more so. More cute boys. Sherrod Brown, though, who's running against old Johnny Ass, he's currently leading by 3%.

15:30 So, it's still a very tight race there. I can't, every time John Husted's name come up, I feel a little bit honored because... it feels like somebody is addressing me in Spanish in the formal manner and saying, who's dead? Who's dead? Um, all right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back and we're going to talk.

15:52 Yes.

15:52 We're going to talk about the dune three popcorn bucket. Don't worry. I know you're all clamoring. You sickos. We'll, we'll talk about it. We'll be right back. And we're back.

16:13 We're back.

16:14 And so is Dune. It's coming back. When's Dune Part 3 coming out?

16:21 Soon?

16:22 Within the next six months, I would say. I think it must be even sooner than that.

16:27 December 18th. I just looked it up. I gotta watch Dune 2. Shit. You haven't watched Dune 2? No, bro, the first one fucked me up so bad. I hate it. Like, not I hate it, but the scene where the Harkonnen were getting ready to fucking go off to war, and that one, those guys just like... I don't know why that shit is... nightmare fuel for me. For whatever reason, I've never been more upset.

16:54 Oh, really?

16:54 The sound design? It just gets in my brain.

16:57 During the episode we did about why children are creepy, you're like, I don't know what this guy's talking about. The only thing that's creepy to me is the hearkening going off the wall. You thought that's what the episode was going to be about? The creepiest thing? Well, that would have to be the hearkening going off the wall.

17:10 Those weird hearkening Greece priests getting everybody ready for war. But yeah, the bucket, though, looks... Dune 2 is... They're doing it.

17:19 It's just, like, Dune 2 really made me amazed at how little they put in Dune 1. Like, Dune 1 is kind of slow, and then Dune 2 really ramps up and is a lot of fun. And I don't think you'd be scared, but I don't know. I guess I don't have your same allergy.

17:38 I'm an adult that loves Yoplait yogurt and gets scared at PG-13 movies. I'm a man, okay? I'm a man.

17:47 Come after me. I'm a man. I'm fucking 42, bro. Come after me. I'm scared of Dune. Unless it's that.

17:52 Scene from Dune, bro, then please don't come at me. Please don't make me listen to it.

17:56 So Dune 2 had the big popular, the first viral bucket that I can remember that like went super viral popcorn bucket that went super viral for being fuckable, right?

18:10 Sure.

18:10 It was a sandworm orifice and it was like kind of tongue in cheek. Like, Most people, I don't think, 10 years ago would have said, well, there goes a thing they made to seem fuckable.

18:24 Right?

18:25 No. But the internet got its greasy popcorn covers. Like, there would have been one for tremors.

18:30 Yeah.

18:30 You know what I mean? Like, if they did this back in the 80s, tremors would have had one with that worm.

18:35 Yeah.

18:35 Probably.

18:36 Yeah.

18:36 And I don't think everyone's first instinct was like, well, how many pumps do you think I can get in there before I totally fall apart? God damn.

18:45 Yeah.

18:46 Now we're completely just absolutely debased. We're broken people.

18:50 We're fucking broken that we're just like, I don't know, this guy ridges, man.

18:54 Yeah.

18:54 What do you want me to do with that? It's a fucking popcorn bucket. It's a popcorn bucket, but that did become the big, you know, the big joke. And then a bunch of other movies came out with popcorn buckets that had people's like big, wide open mouths as the thing that you could put your hand in to get the popcorn. Um, so it was, it's been popcorn bucket design has been a, an art form of dancing that fine line between, you know, Suggestive and also like, oh, we're not in on the joke. We don't know what you're talking about. And so Dune 3 has done multiple popcorn buckets. And... We'll just go through a couple of them.

19:40 One of them features not one, but two gaping sandworm orifices. Is this relevant where.

19:50 it's like, now we're dealing with two?

19:51 Right.

19:52 Does it make sense to double up? Is it like an alien to aliens leap that is happening? I don't think so, because there's always been multiple sandworms. But maybe there's like a scene with multiple sandworms in this. I don't know.

20:04 The caption that the AMC put out for the promo for this is, ever wanted to London Bridge a popcorn bucket with your homie?

20:12 Eiffel Tower with your homie? Yeah. That's weird. It's called the double penetration button. fuck is it but anyway cool i mean.

20:22 This is the thing though too we were like look if we're gonna go and make stupid popcorn buckets at least make them as vulgar as possible and they've they've they've they've made they've made good on that thread.

20:32 Um the other one so that one i feel like you could get away with being like hey it's just about sharing popcorn that's fun um the other one has uh comes with a working thumper device that rhythmically pumps up and down um And the tagline says, it's really thumping. So I, it almost feels like they're getting to be almost too, too in on the joke with the, it's really thumping.

21:02 Yeah.

21:03 I think that's the thing.

21:04 It's like the first, I think with Dune too, it's easy to be like, do they know that fucking idiots are going to think this is a thing you can have sex with?

21:11 Yeah.

21:11 Not that anyone did. And now they're like, all right, these things have to go full flashlight now.

21:16 Right.

21:17 It's the only way to get some buzz.

21:21 Yeah, I don't know.

21:23 It's tough to say. Is this because of the famous popcorn person who puts their dick in the popcorn bucket and then is like, here, grab the popcorn? You know that old urban legend? You know that old trick? That old trick we all did? I do wonder if that's like what is connecting it in people's minds to, uh, you know, connecting the popcorn bucket.

21:51 Where was the first instance of putting your dick in a popcorn bucket? And like, and do people even still think that's a thing? I mean, I know we, like, I think that's a like millennials and older remember that, but is that, Stupid myth being carried on for the younger generations.

22:07 I feel like the younger generations would be like, that's sexual assault. What are you talking about?

22:11 Are you fucking serious?

22:12 You've ruined all the pop, your dick's in the popcorn? Why did you do that?

22:16 Are you going to eat it?

22:17 Who's going to eat that? But I guess dick in the box probably brought that down to a new generation, right? Like the idea of your dick being in a box. So maybe that's where it came from. All right. A24 just belatedly unveiled a You Can See Everything themed bucket. Really seems like the success of this movie kind of caught them off guard a little bit. The bucket is just completely transparent, which I kind of like that. I feel like more popcorn buckets should be completely transparent. You get to see what's down there.

22:50 Dude, you'd be so grossed out to just see like all the fake popcorn butter in there.

22:55 I think I would.

22:56 Oh, yeah. Oh, God.

22:57 I'm not. I don't. I don't get butter on my popcorn. And does that make me better than you? Probably. It does. It means you'll live longer.

23:06 Yeah.

23:07 I keep my shit dry, but I also do put Sour Patch Kids in the popcorn. And so for that reason, this would make me happy because I can see the Sour Patch Kids.

23:17 So you can see them.

23:17 Yeah, yeah.

23:18 You can see the art. See, we come from different planets. I need an opaque thing to not know what I'm putting my hand into or what I'm eating because I don't want to be shamed for the amount of grease I put on it.

23:29 This popcorn bucket is arguably a lot lazier than a fan who 3D printed the Edison machine from Theranos into a popcorn bucket. That's cooler. That is cooler.

23:46 But again, unless you're a collector, this is a thing you buy and then you feel bad that you have to throw away when you get home.

23:52 Sure.

23:52 What the fuck am I going to do with this thing?

23:54 Never. Unless.

23:56 You can have sex with it.

23:57 In which case.

23:59 This is my wife now. Wow. Let's talk about Dave Rubin. I'm vaguely becoming aware of who this guy is.

24:08 He's one of these conservative gay pundits who's always kind of... I think to start off, he's one of the dumbest pundits out there.

24:20 Sure.

24:20 I gotta say.

24:20 Does not seem to do his homework.

24:24 No, no.

24:25 He's just not.

24:26 I think he just sort of... He has been running a long time for just being like... He's like, well, I'm a gay conservative. I'm kind of giving cover to this entire regressive movement. And also, I mean, he's also... He's not just dumb because he's one of these people who thinks that being LGBTQ MAGA will save him. Because he's definitely intersected with the hateful elements of the party who come after him.

24:50 And he's suddenly like, well, but I'm one of you guys. It's like.

24:53 you're one of them until they get to you on their list.

24:57 He's also just plumb dumb.

25:00 He recently did one of those Jubilee surrounded by far-left radicals, and they were just pretty much run-of-the-mill Democrats. And he was totally humiliated time after time. I just want to play an instance where he's being asked just straight up, he's like, what has Donald Trump done at all in this administration, measurably? That makes him worth anything as a president.

25:26 And this fucking guy couldn't even answer. He knew he was supposed to be talking about this, but he's, again, not smart.

25:34 It's kicking in now, right? It's kicking in now. So we are going to now see results of that. Like, even the tariffs. All right, so let's do tariffs. Are you for or against tariffs?

25:43 I'm against the universal tariff. So what's the main metric that he made better off? What's the main metric that he made better?

25:47 What's the main metric that he made better off?

25:48 GDP?

25:48 That was the question the guy asked. Do you have any idea? Listen. I don't think you do.

25:55 Hold on.

25:56 So you're arguing that things economically were better under Joe Biden?

26:00 At the end of his administration, absolutely.

26:02 Can you give me an example of how?

26:03 Yeah, GDP growth was better off. Real meaning wage growth was better off. Inflation was better off at the end of his administration. Unemployment was better off at the end of his administration. We had the worst year of job growth in the past four years, just like last year under Trump's administration. The inflation, 3.8% year over year since Trump got office. We're seeing all of those economic indicators become worse off. Can you tell me anything that he's done to make it better off? You say it's broken for Democrats. It sounds like it's broken right now under Trump.

26:24 Have you looked at the stock market?

26:26 It's worse off in terms of growth in 2025 as compared to 2024. If you look at Joe Jones and S & P.

26:33 Listen, what do you think this is going to be?

26:36 I think because these people, they're used to just one way conversations and just, you know, screaming shit about.

26:44 Liberals never actually interacting.

26:46 And so when, when you're not out there in the real world, you finally get out there and you're in a street fight. You're like, Oh shit, they hit.

26:53 Right.

26:53 Oh fuck. I thought I was just going to say you're wrong. Uh, but no.

26:57 So anyway, he is one of.

26:59 These people who again has used AI to give voice to a take that deserves no voice. Um, and he put out this video. He's like, cause he wanted to warn America about, he's like, well, he made this short film he's like i used ai to create this film to warn america about that what the dsa basically has in store for the country sure i'll play a little bit of this it's all fucking stupid ai it starts off with a scene with like a bunch of people in the street saying like from the river to the sea um and then a few other things but here's uh just a quick taste of his uh a generative ai masterpiece.

27:38 These are Americans.

27:40 Yeah.

27:40 That's what a group of Americans sounds like. From the river to the sea.

27:45 It says the near future.

27:47 What was once the Democrat. Oh, shit. AOC is the president. AOC is president, bro. It's long gone. Oh, shit. It's long gone, bro. Democratic Socialists.

27:56 Oh.

27:57 Hurry to the car. Dad, where are we going? Just get in the car.

28:01 Anyway, it's so stupid. These people are fleeing.

28:03 The whites are on the run. Yeah, it's like the people who had better sense knew when they were celebrating.

28:09 Right.

28:10 Goes on.

28:11 It shows AOC. It's just, like, AOC is the president. It's very ominous. It's just, like, explosions in the background while, like, Obama, AOC, Hassan Piker. Bernie. Like, everybody, like, high-fives each other and is, like, mission accomplished. The world is burning.

28:25 Then it's, like, yeah. Then there's a scene where there's, like, LGBTQ for Palestine. But then they show, like, Muslim people. They're, like, we're going to kill you. And they're, like, but we were together. And it's, like, that's over.

28:36 That's over now.

28:36 So, basically, the gist is... In this video, everyone is Muslim, unless you're gay, then they will kill you, and then the stores will only sell cobwebs because of socialism, and then Zoran is a jihadist. Got it, got it. Okay, so where do I vote for them?

28:51 Right.

28:52 Where do I, where do I, how do I vote for these people? So then, then there's, like, at the end, he throws in a montage of, like, what we need to protect people.

28:59 Like, what is at stake here?

29:01 And there's, like, Americana home video shit. There's some World War II victory parade clips.

29:07 A lot of space. Space mission stuff. A lot of space mission.

29:10 Then America's, maybe, arguably America's most famous Muslim in Muhammad Ali.

29:16 Mm-hmm. So, okay. So.

29:20 And that wasn't when he was Cassius Clay.

29:22 Miles, you got to understand, everybody loved him at the time. Everybody thought he was so great.

29:26 I don't know.

29:27 Did they? Yeah.

29:28 No, no, no. People like Dave Rubin were huge fans of Muhammad Ali at the time. They loved it when he changed his name to Muhammad Ali from Cassius Clay. And they're always right about this stuff. Yeah. right. When somebody does something like change their name from Cassius Clay to Muhammad Ali, they're always right that that is an unforgivable sin and that they should be put in prison and not allowed to box anymore.

29:51 They also showed Jordan's 84 dunk contest from the free throw line dunk. Oh, really? Which I was like, oh, okay, cool. cool like this is that so like with dsa in the white house there will be no more michael.

30:04 Jordan contest that's actually the first thing a lot of people don't realize a lot of people haven't read the platform no more michael jordan number one on the dsa list um yeah it's so wild um but i do feel like that shit is going to hit so hard on Facebook with like the dumbest people in the world, you know? Sure. For the dumbest people in the world.

30:29 I think it's also just funny too, because it's the, like the establishment has completely overblown that like, the emergence of DSA candidates. Right, the establishment Democrats.

30:40 Yeah.

30:41 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

30:41 And then so because the establishment responds to the establishment Republicans like, oh shit, they're worried about these fucking guys on the rise? Oh my God. And I get, I understand why the establishment doesn't like the emergence of people that are much further to the left than the establishment. But like, when you really just look at the numbers in the primary season, only 64 candidates were were like ran like under the banner of dsa for congress like in these primaries so that's how many ran yeah in the primaries and not every single one of them won but that's how many ran during primaries.

31:19 That's how many elections thousand.

31:23 I mean like this is just for congress i mean there was there was some for state and local level and a few more for like you know totally super local level.

31:31 So when you think about... 64 out of 100 Senate seats and 435 House seats? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

31:37 Wow. They're coming for you. They're coming for you. It's still very... It's still not a huge thing. Not to demean it, but I'm saying if you're actually looking at it, it's not like of the 435 House seats... 200 were debt, like were DSA. And even then it doesn't fucking matter, but it's just funny. Like at this moment, they're choosing to pick on this thing that is still very much like in its, uh, like infancy in terms of like becoming a real issue for the establishment democratic party. Um, but Hey man, that's scary. They're going to do, they're going to make you shop at a Kroger cobweb Kroger.

32:14 So you can get a half open can of spinach for your dinner. They also have a part where Chuck Schumer is, like, black bagged and, like, dragged away. And his fingers leave, like, a trail on the ground in a way that suggests that the ground is covered with a thin layer of gelatin.

32:31 Yeah, or Play-Doh.

32:33 Yeah.

32:33 It's made of Play-Doh, maybe. And he was like, I helped clear the way. It's like, what the fuck?

32:40 No, you didn't. What is this even about? Yeah. Anyways.

32:44 All right.

32:45 Those are some of the things that are trending on this Thursday, October 29th. We are back tomorrow with the whole last episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other.
