The episode blends satire and commentary on major cultural and political issues, centering on AI safety concerns raised by tech leaders like Dario Amadai, Sam Altman, and Elon Musk. These warnings about recursive self-improvement and AI autonomy spark debate over regulation, but critics argue the discussion is politically driven—either as a strategy to favor large firms or as a scare tactic. Meanwhile, President Trump dismisses AI threats, claiming only strong leadership is needed, while others point to real risks in AI development. The narrative extends to scandals, including Russian-linked spending on Trump Jr.'s wedding and an offensive fitness incident where an athlete pooped during a competition, leading to public outcry and an apology. The episode also critiques the Trump administration’s rollback of Title X funding, which limits access to reproductive healthcare, and highlights Miss Pat’s journey from poverty and trauma to success in entertainment. Through humor and personal stories, the show explores how societal anxieties around technology, power, and identity are shaped by politics, media, and personal experience. It concludes with a reminder that real change requires accountability, courage, and access to care—especially for vulnerable communities.

What's up Los Angeles? Welcome to Love It or Leave It, live from Hollywood. I'm John Lovett, and let's get into it. What a week.
Over the weekend, Anthropic CEO Dario Amadai published a 3,800-word essay calling for the AI industry to slow down,
warning of the danger of what's known as recursive self-improvement, in which AI models train and improve new AI models,
which may leave humans unable to control or even understand these systems.
In independent intelligence, we can't control or understand? Sounds like AI is at risk of becoming my wife.
Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, and Elon Musk, the saddest, richest man in the world,
echoed Amadai's concerns, kicking off a debate over regulation.
However, House Speaker Mike Johnson doesn't want Congress, which has so far done nothing, to do too much.
But the problem is, I'm telling you again, the guys who are raising the alarms right now all have very different ideas on what the guardrails should be.
There's no consensus among them, and Congress is obviously less qualified than the people who are pushing this frontier to know all the ins and outs of it.
Awesome leadership.
And there's no consensus among them, and Congress is obviously less qualified than the people who are pushing this frontier to know all the ins and outs of it.
Also, that's an argument against any safeguards for any industry.
You don't have to understand why dough rises to know that it's bad when there's glass in the fucking bread.
Meanwhile, some would rather dismiss all of these warnings as some kind of psy-op.
On the left, that's to avoid facing how powerful AI can be by viewing this as some marketing ploy.
But this isn't like when they killed Mr. Peanut in 2020 to sell more peanuts.
This would be more like if Mr.
Peanut wrote an essay saying that peanuts could kill us all.
Sure, we'd definitely be talking about peanuts, but not in a good way.
Meanwhile, on the right, the claim is that this hyperbolic language is meant to scare the government into creating regulations that will reward more established firms, which can then afford the compliance costs.
And this isn't just a fringe theory.
Here's Vice President Jelly Deli Vance.
I have to say, just personally, I feel a little bit weird about the fact that you
have so many frontier AI tech companies kind of coming to the government and begging the government to regulate them.
It feels a little bit to me like a bit of a Trojan horse.
It's exactly like the Trojan horse.
If the Greeks who built the Trojan horse ran to Troy screaming, watch out for that horse, there could be some guys with swords in there.
Meanwhile, President Trump isn't losing any sleep over the impending AI threat.
He's losing sleep because his CPAP machine is broken after he tried to put Diet Coke in the reservoir.
Here's our big golfing boy.
We're leading China in AI.
We're the most sophisticated country in the world.
And frankly, I want to keep it that way because whoever wins, AI wins.
Yes, whoever wins, AI wins and then dies.
Dies a winner.
Later on Air Force One, the leader of the most sophisticated country in the world was asked about his own AI use.
Have you ever used it yourself or have you been?
How do you use AI?
But I would say, you know, for the most part, you can use AI for a lot of things.
What do you use it for?
I don't know.
I had a Trump.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go task codex to build a model for solar
adoption by latitude, giving decreasing material costs so
that I'm ready for my meeting on permitting reform in the morning.
I'm just kidding.
I'm going to make a video where I have
huge muscles and eat James Tallarico like a candy apple.
Thank you.
On Monday, Trump took to social media to further detail his argument, posting,
quote, the only controller guardrails that AI needs is a strong and smart, high IQ
president. And the USA has that in spades.
And this just in humanity has fallen.
Let's take a moment to honor 50,000
wonderful years of being the dominant species on the planet.
The cave paintings of Sulawesi, the Great Pyramids of Giza.
Mr. Bean.
The end
wrote Trump in another post,
quote, I am the hoax buster and I'm right now breaking another hoax that AI is going
to take over, consume and destroy the world and that robots will be marching
into our cities and getting rid of us all, which is, of course, absurd.
Robots won't march into our cities.
They're terrifying.
Quantum technology will allow them
to teleport directly into the bathroom while we're pooping.
In corrupt wedding news, ProPublica reported on Monday that Donald Trump
Junior's May wedding in the Bahamas was secretly paid for by Russian oligarch Umar
Kremlev. And let me just say, as someone who got married the same weekend as Don
Junior, I should have thought of that.
According to ProPublica, Kremlev spent hundreds of thousands of dollars renting
out a private island for the weekend, in addition to footing the bill for a
fireworks show and lending out his team to plan the event.
But that's Russian oligarch Umar Kremlev.
He loves love.
And it was all pretty casual.
The after party was KGBYOB.
Kremlev is an associate of Russian President Vladimir Putin and the head
of the International Boxing Association, a shady sports group financed by Russia's
state owned energy company Gazprom. In 2023, the International Boxing Association
was stripped of its role organizing Olympic boxing due to its refusal to,
quote, "transparently explain the sourcing of its financing."
I'm sorry, I'm having trouble understanding your questions about corruption, Mr.
Olympics man. Would you mind saying it a bit closer to open the window?
Don Junior is reportedly worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
His family has made billions in just the past few years by monetizing the presidency.
Why would he want a Russian mogul to front a few hundred thousand dollars for his wedding?
I mean, I get that he has to save up for the third wedding, but still.
On Monday, Don Junior's bride Bettina posted a statement from the pair defending
the Russians largesse, writing in an Instagram post, quote, "It was an
extraordinarily generous wedding gift from a friend and something for which we were
and remain incredibly grateful. Friendship doesn't require a political motive.
Generosity doesn't automatically
come with an agenda, and sometimes a wedding gift is simply a wedding gift."
Concluded Bettina, "Alexei Navalny killed himself."
Bettina also posted wedding photos with the statement, which, of course,
interested me greatly as someone who, as I said, just planned a wedding.
And I was struck in particular by this photo.
It is a personalized cocktail napkin with a beautiful quote, "We loved with a love
that was more than love," by Edgar Allan Poe.
And when I saw this, something went off in my
brain a little because, like, I don't know.
You don't think Edgar Allan Poe is like the wedding poem guy, right?
But the line does appear on lists like
the 52 most romantic quotes of all time from books, poetry, and plays.
But sure enough, the actual poem, Annabel Lee, is about a child bride who's great.
You knew the poem once I said the poem, but you know, no, it's you can now imagine.
So you know what I'm talking about to say.
Annabel Lee is the poem, and it is about a child bride
whose grave he visits, and many believe it is inspired by Poe's own marriage
to his first cousin, which took place when he was 27 and she was 13
before she died of tuberculosis, which must have been a welcome relief from having
to fuck your old cousin who was constantly asking to read you his creepy poems.
Quote the raven, "blech."
Nevermore. Can you believe that?
This is why you can't just Google a fucking brainy quote
and have somebody say it at your wedding.
You got to do the research.
You got to look into find a nice one, right?
In my favorite part of this story, Don Junior's esthetician also posted
about the wedding, specifically naming the procedures that the bride
and groom got before the event, and I am not judging.
I can't because I got some of the same treatments for my wedding.
That's real.
Pure Skin Palm Beach wrote of Don Junior's face, quote,
"It was also a pleasure getting to know Don and helping him
prepare for the big day with customized therapy treatments to naturally define his
jawline. Sadly, that esthetician has since died in a freak accident in which he was
thrown out of the window by a Russian guy."
And you know what that sound means?
It's time for a bestiality update.
You may remember in August when we learned that the FBI had loosened its
hiring policies, no longer automatically rejecting applicants who had committed theft,
prostitutes or participated in bestiality.
And so ironically, FBI Director Kash Patel
headed to the Hill to be barked at by a bunch of senators.
Here's an exchange with Louisiana's John Kennedy.
What about the bestiality?
Tell me what it said before.
It automatically disqualified any
individual who participated on either side of it.
Obviously, we are never going to hire the criminal side of what the bestiality.
Yes. So you disqualified the animal?
Well, I don't think we have great canines, but we're not going to disqualify.
I understand.
You do? I don't.
Either side of it. Either side of it.
Is there a problem with people blaming the victims when it comes to bestiality?
Have people been commenting "slut" under Lassie's IG posts?
Now, in fairness, Kash Patel is saying something quite grim, which is that people
who have been victims of human trafficking may have been forced to engage in bestiality
and try to join the FBI.
And my feeling is, if that's you, you've been through enough.
Forget about the FBI.
Teach yoga. Become a magician.
Rent jet skis by the water. Take it easy.
If that happened to you, take it easy.
and that's been the bestiality update
on monday kentucky senator and living man mitch mcconnell returned to the senate for the first
time since his hospitalization in june and he looked great the embalmers did a beautiful job
here's mcconnell leaving his home in the first proof of life video we've seen during his three
month absence are you feeling good mitch looks good give us a thumbs up
cut him some slack his staff is still figuring out which strings control which parts of his body
and finally during a high rocks fitness competition in china an australian athlete
experienced bowel incontinence or shit herself and was allowed to finish the race this is why
high rocks events should not include an oyster eating contest
the athlete
you
, joanna wetrick nevertheless came in just behind the winner writing in a now deleted selfie go
hard or go home a win is a win yes wetrick finished number two in the race and she took home second
place hey joanna i've got a motto for you go hard or go bathroom many pointed out or continuing in
a competition in which the athletes all share equipment was unsanitary disgusting and perhaps
unfair to the other competitors in response to the backlash high rocks wrote in a statement
we
ask our athletes to push themselves to the highest levels. At times, they will go beyond what even we
thought possible. That courage, resilience, and refusal to give in are precisely what makes elite
athletes so extraordinary. She pooped your pants. She didn't land on the moon. Do I get a medal too,
asked Senator Mitch McConnell. As the backlash rose, High Rocks co-founder Moritz Furtz issued a
more explicit apology, writing, I apologize to all that were directly or indirectly affected
as well as to everyone who felt like we did not handle the situation like we should have.
High Rocks made a mistake by not reacting immediately during the race. Furtz continued,
I regret not standing up and saying, hey, stop doing that. Cut that out.
Furtz has said that he was surprised by the outpouring and also that he heard from a lot
of people. And when asked if anything could have prevented this grotesque incident,
Furtz has said, depends. All right, we've got a great show for you tonight, and we'll be
right back with Ms. Pat. Hey, don't go anywhere. There's more of Love It or Leave It coming up.
This episode is presented by Planned Parenthood Federation of America. So in case you missed it,
some public officials are still very committed to the deeply unpopular idea that they and not
you and your doctor should make healthcare decisions for you. Their latest move, the Trump
administration is going after a little-known program called Title X, the only federal program
devoted solely to funding care like birth control, cancer screenings, STI testing, and treatment,
and more for uninsured, underinsured, and low-income people. So if you're interested in
and low-income people, this is yet another attempt to make it harder for people to get the care they
need at Planned Parenthood health centers. Title X was not controversial at its inception. It was
created with bipartisan support in 1970. Planned Parenthood health centers have been key providers
of medically appropriate quality care through the program. By opposing a political agenda on Title
X funding applications, the Trump administration is unlawfully blocking patients from receiving
vital healthcare at Planned Parenthood. But Planned Parenthood isn't backing down. Healthcare staff
continue to show up for patients, helping provide essential care alongside people like you and me.
They fight every day to build a future.
We deserve one where everyone can get healthcare no matter what. If you want to help fight back
and protect and defend access to care, and truly, I hope you do, grab your phone and visit

Good to see you again.
Good to see you again, too.
Come join. Now, first of all, thank you for making the time to be here, because you do too much.
Sofa too damn low.
We've got to work on the sofa. I'm sorry.
When you invite old people, you've got to have this.
Now, how am I going to get out of here? Your little ass can't pull me out this hole out of the city.
Well, that'll be a problem we'll deal with later.
Okay. But make sure you bring two strong men, because I'm going to need some help up out of this shit.
You could have said one more strong man. It was free to say one more strong man.
You're not big enough to pull me up.
I do. Listen, I don't look like much, but I do a lot of Pilates.
Pilates don't mean shit picking up a big black woman.
I need somebody to do weights.
I don't know who scratched their ass.
I don't know. I think there's something to be said for functional movements.
You get a big strong guy, all of a sudden he's hurting his back, you know?
Now, your show was nominated for its fourth Emmy this season.
Yeah, we lost last night.
Yeah. But you were nominated.
Yes.
That's cool.
I don't care nothing about awards. I care if the check clear.
But the people that write the checks care about the nominations.
Well, that's their problem. I did the job. If they get the trophy, as long as the check clear.
Well, I am thankful. That's our fourth nomination, and this is our sixth season.
I mean, I'm just not a trophy chaser.
I am. I need it.
You do?
And, you know, the Webby's aren't the same, but, you know, I've gotten them, and it doesn't do anything for me.
So I need better awards.
What do you want to win?
Really anything. Any acclaim would help.
Oh, okay. I'm sorry you need somebody to tell you you're great, but keep going.
So you host the Miss. So there's the Miss Patrick.
Yes.
You host Miss Pat Settles It.
Yes.
And Whisking It All.
Uh-huh, and I have a new show called America's Funniest People, and it's coming out in October on VH1.
That's cool.
Thank you. Thank you.
Now, have you considered sharing some of your many jobs in Hollywood with those in need?
I do it every time I go home. I have seven crack babies.
So every check, white people, you can laugh. This is not the 90s. This shit is funny.
There's no shame here.
So every time I get paid, I tell. I take care of my nieces and nephews, whose parents smoke crack.
So every time I get a job, I'm taking care of somebody's crack baby.
Beautiful.
I said y'all can laugh. Don't stare at me.
Don't stare, Miss Pat.
Do not feel sorry. If you're feeling sorry, write me a check and we can cry together.
Now, your show on BET, you had an episode. BET Plus.
BET Plus.
Now, it's on Paramount.
And that's on Paramount.
Yes.
You had an episode about a woman hiding from ICE.
Yes.
And it was a bit of a process to get that episode.
It was.
What happened?
Well, the merger came and they said, fuck no.
Everybody's scared of, you know, of the people who own Paramount.
And they just didn't. At first, they approved it.
Then when the merger went over, they was like, no, this is going to be too controversial.
And then we're going to get shit down.
And we just fought for it.
And we was, you know, because that's what. That's the shit I stand for.
You know, nobody should be dragging nobody out of this country.
This is a stolen country.
And we should be living in this bitch together.
By now, we should be able to get along.
But for some reasons, people don't want us to get along.
And we wanted to do an episode about ICE, and we did it.
And it was hard, but it was so touching.
So many people reached out and was like, they were so happy about us being bold about it.
Because in the episode, my son was a teacher, and he brings home a Hispanic kid
whose parents just got caught by ICE, and we was there to protect him until his aunt got there.
And so it just so happened the president was in his town.
Well, McDonald's opened it.
Because he liked McDonald's.
And to make a long story short, the Secret Service came by the house.
Which was a very funny episode, and it was very touching.
Do you think the merger causing people to be worried about the episode,
do you think that was coming from the higher-ups?
Or was people afraid of the new higher-ups trying to stay out?
Was it people afraid of what the new world would be like?
Or do you think it was actually coming from the top?
I just think people were just afraid of the administration.
So I just think, you know, when you get to talking about stuff,
that they want to make act like it don't exist in this world people are just scared i mean look
they go on the internet you say bad things about the president you get a knock at the door you
usually can say the president shit himself and bam you get a knock at the door why did you say
the president shit himself because he be shitting himself you know what this is this is a free
country we supposed to be able to say and say what the hell we want to say you know other than
the n-word that's the only thing to get your ass whipped other than that we can talk about
everybody right for sure we supposed to be but now people are walking on eggshell not me i don't
give a fuck but you know so you have a second book coming out miss american dream yes it's about your
path from dropping out of eighth grade raising two children at 15 to who you became is your current
life one you were aiming for or was it unimaginable it was unimaginable i mean
you
i you i would i tell my kids all the time you couldn't have told me i'm 54 now you couldn't
have told me 30 years ago this is how i was going to be living i was going to be in entertainment
with four shows and four emmy nomination and i'm creating other things i did not see this i mean
and society didn't see it for me either i mean i grew up in a crack infested neighborhood
i had two kids by the time i was 14 got shot a couple times went to prison
you know where i come from that's that was the american dream for the african-american community
wasn't supposed to move up and believe it or not that's what the community was and that's how i grew
up but i think i wanted more and i think it became from i wasn't i used to love tv so i used to watch
leave it to be even and it braided a bunch and good time was on but i was sick of them black
people eating oatmeal i was like i'm do not be scared to fucking laugh you can laugh and i was
like i'm sick of these motherfucking black people eating oatmeal i don't want to see this shit i'm
living this shit i said why the fuck beaver got a sandwich every time he get off that school bus
i want this white shit over here so when i was a little girl i had a jerry curl but we was poor so
we only had activator activator is the stuff that we put it on how to keep it shiny we could only
get it once a month so once we ran out our jerry curl was just dried the fuck up so i was sick of
the dry jerry curl and i said i just want to be white because white people get a sandwich when
they get out the bus and they fucking mama ain't drunk you know because this is the
this is the american dream they sold me so i'm thinking white people didn't have no fucking
problem so i would tie a tie around my head and say i'm fucking white and then i grew up and
realized we all the fucking same people and the difference between me and you is y'all get wrinkles
before me and so i said i want to be black so i went back to being black
were there moments where like did you know you were special like did you know you had like because
you
know i think you can there i think you can judge a society not like it's not necessarily best to
judge a society by can someone with extraordinary talents right emerge from a place with a lot of
struggle right you what you want to know is can somebody get get out of a bad situation or poverty
without being extraordinary just by working hard and doing their best but you had real and
extraordinary talents did you feel at the time i didn't have talent when i i had a talent but i
didn't realize i tell you i had a baby at 14 years old by a 22 year old married man and once i gave
birth to that baby by this time i had already been molested i had already been shot i had already
been beaten down i had been to the bottom and i just remember having that baby august 9th 1986
and i said excuse my friend these niggas ain't sticking their fingers in your ass so i'm gonna
protect you and that's what made me say i gotta survive because it wasn't about i could go hungry
because i was a little black kid here in the ghetto but when i gave birth to that baby we all
as a woman we all have something in us called motherly instinct and no matter how old you are
when you give birth that instinct instantly turns on for some people should for most and that turned
on for me and i knew i had to survive and i just said i gotta get a better life you know i always
wanted a better life but i was like i cannot let my baby go hungry i cannot let these people molest
my child i cannot let these people beat my child and nobody can stop me i cannot let these people
beat my child and nobody can stop me i cannot let these people beat my child and nobody can stop me

forging checks and then i got back on track and got married and i thank god you know i'm not gonna

off my ass and he said you're not gonna get these free benefits you go get your ged and become some
so i got my ged and i wanted to become a a nurse because i love helping people and he's like you

halloween stuff is up right now i was like what is fuck wrong with you i said when i get back i'm
gonna need the candles hung on the porch but you you just i don't want 30 days i spent a lot of
money at least at least 60 days all right yeah september one that's it verdict yeah my christmas
trees will be up next month i won't light them up but they're gonna be
up because i might have 15 trees this year well those are just trees then they're christmas trees
but not without the lights oh they be no yeah they're criminal they'll be fully decorated oh
fully decorated fully decorated in october in october wow yeah i i grew up without christmas
trees so i i love christmas i uh i was uh engaged to uh a non-jewish person and it was the only
chance i had of being around christmas trees but now i'm married to a jewish person and so there's
no christmas trees and it was the one purse perk of dating a non-jew the one the one and
Jewish people don't like christmas trees well so it's controversial but but when jews have
christmas trees uh it is frowned upon why because it's like we didn't fight to get all the way over
here for you to put out one of these goyish christmas trees all right that that's how we
feel about it y'all don't fucking like christmas trees no no and i just want to be clear y'all
we love the christmas trees candles yeah we have candles we like them we like them but we just
think it's we have to preserve our our culture and heritage by not what the fuck have a christmas
tree did to you well a lot of people have the christmas trees haven't been nice over the
centuries but we love christmas trees it's not a disrespect for the christmas trees it is that it
somebody beat y'all with a christmas tree i'm sure it's happened i'm sure it's happened next up
female olympians are uh pretty upset with christmas trees and christmas trees are pretty upset with
sydney sweeney's butt naked ads for sports betting huh have you seen this yeah i saw that
they are upset that that she's trying to keep a job i mean i mean she's getting paid to promote
this sports betting app but some of the the the female olympians are saying uh that you know
they're that they don't like that this is being used to to push people towards sports betting
what do you think sports betting yeah it's an app for it's a it's a it's a way to bet on sports
i know what that is no i know but this i'm saying she's promoting an app called sports betting
which is a way to bet on sports and they had to get a butt naked for them to spend the money
i i think so what would you go over there and bet without saying that
well i that doesn't do anything for me you gay yeah and you jewish yeah and you don't like
christmas no you fucked up well that's that's the verdict next up after after years of posting

my next guest asked the question that america needed answered which was did i do that
please welcome to the stage jaleel white
hi thank you for being here guys
no no i know i was trying to wait on you you should have you i should you should have said
you i you were right i was wrong and that's been that up and down shit i'm old well you guys you
were uh in a couple episodes of miss pat show yeah uh how'd you do he did fucking great did i pass
the sniff test what sniff did my skills hold up over the years my sitcom skills yes he was fucking
great you hey you just i'm the motherfucker that can't act it was a good time what's it like
working with miss pat oh pat is she's wildfire she's wildfire on the set um but it's fun everybody
on the set is allowed to speak up there's no there's no phony hierarchy um you know you can
catch a joke from anywhere uh her showrunner jordan is terrific they got a well-oiled machine
she's trying to downplay it but you don't stay on the air for six seasons without knowing what
you're doing yeah oh thank you now you're also on the air for six seasons and you're on the air for six seasons
also hosting totally 90s house on hgtv where a bunch of stars from 90s shows get together
to renovate houses that are stuck in the 90s yes uh how has it been coming together for that
reunion it's fun i mean i've known all the participants since we were very little from
keisha pulliam to uh brian austin green so for me it's my version of a high school reunion
oh because i didn't know the concept of the show he didn't tell me it was like the
kids stars from the 90s
so now you just think you should pull on oh i can't wait to watch that i know it's a fun watch
it's a fun way it's a competition show so you've got um two teams of uh of stars from the 90s
that have picked their home and they've got it renovated with the money we give them and there
will be a winner uh so now in your memoir growing up urkel you told a story about what happened when
you got to college and a ta was discussing 90s sitcoms without realizing that you were in the
class so you're sitting in this class and you're sitting in this class and you're sitting in this
first of all i can't believe that i can't believe you're in a college class and there's a ta talking
about sitcoms mentions you but doesn't know that you're in the room oh yeah no it's very easy i
mean hey you're talking about ucla so you know class sizes could be upwards of you know 200 300
uh it's probably a good buck 50 that day and uh she just started making her way down you know the
different decades and as soon as she started getting into the 90s i was like uh-oh here we go
and sure enough she brought up my character and i was like oh my god i'm gonna be in the 90s and i'm
what she thought of it what and she was pretty she was she did not like steve steve no no she had a
very academic uh assessment of the character that just didn't come from a place of reality at all
about how the business functions uh it's really funny when you get to college because you hear
the professors give you their academic takes on things and it's like come on that's not the way
it works in the real world so i actually just shut my mouth and uh somebody told her at the end of
the class you know that i was in the 90s and i was like oh my god i'm gonna be in the 90s and i'm
and she came up to me and you know wanted to apologize but it was one of those moments where
i was very grateful that we did not have camera phones back then what did she say no she said i
was a sambo i was a she said my character was a non-threatening uh character that was specifically
designed to create comfort with white people she would play of course oh it's i'm like that's that's
a stretch a it was not the character was not nearly as um you know i always call the character
accident. You know, they
develop these shows and
to the best of their ability, they try to find an audience.
And back then, one of the mistakes, though,
that was frequently made is, you know,
there would not be a lot of black writers on these shows.
And for certain concepts, it would just shine through.
So I always say what my character did
was my character gave the white writers something to write
that I would just kind of turn on its head and make black.
And it just, it literally, it was like,
my character really just brought the writer's room
and the cast together, and then the fighting kind of stopped.
- Remember Stefan Urquell?
- I catch a, listen, the cool thing about it,
I catch a lot of love from everyone.
- Yeah, I bet.
- That's the thing I probably value most
at this point in my life, that it doesn't matter
what neighborhood I go into at this age,
everybody loved the show, everybody watched the show,
for whatever reason, you know,
that they were drawn to the show.
- Yeah, 'cause I--
- Whether it was Stefan or Steve or whatever it was,
that, you know,
I've really landed nicely in a place with millennials
that I really appreciate.
- Well, look, I do, but it's interesting, right?
Because in that story, it's like, oh, this was a, you know,
something to make white people watching it feel comfortable.
I was one of those little white kids watching it,
and I loved "Family Matters,"
and whenever you would get to be Stefan Urquell,
that was the coolest fucking thing.
It was like--
- I liked the lean in.
- It really was.
Like, if you were watching a Stefan Urquell episode
of "Family Matters," you knew you were in
for a good fucking time, and the same time, I was like,
same way that, like, when Bebe Neuwirth would show up
on "Frasier" and play Lilith, you're like,
a Lilith episode? - Oh, that's a throwback character.
- This is gonna be awesome.
But I feel like it was a chance for you to, like,
not be this sort of stereotypical nerd
and get to be, like, kind of actually a heartthrob,
which you kind of were outside of the show.
- Yeah, first of all, I appreciate the words, thank you,
but, you know, our job was to have fun.
They would throw different things at me every week.
Okay, you're gonna play Elvis, you're gonna play Bruce Lee,
you're gonna play this, and, you know,
on Monday I didn't have the confidence,
and by Friday my showrunner had effectively convinced me
that I could pull it off, and that was the acting exercise
that took place every week, and we also tackled
a lot of tough subjects that a lot of people
don't necessarily, we get credit for,
but forget about the credit.
If you go back and you look, you'll see from, you know,
police harassment to, you know,
inequality in the workplace, you know,
and Laura went through everything, my goodness, you know,
we tackled a lot of subjects, but we did it in a way
that was intentionally universal, and I'm grateful for that
because I'm the one that gets to travel now around the world,
and whether I'm in Spain, whether I'm in Germany,
or you name it, our show still airs, still airs to this day,
and people are learning those lessons
and watching those episodes.
- That's cool.
- Well, give me a residual check.
I know you got 'em.
- So, you had this extraordinary childhood,
growing up on this show,
and you decide you're gonna, you're gonna go to college.
I think people wouldn't expect or know
that you were just going to public school
throughout the time that you're doing Family Matters, right?
You're just-
- I love that you picked up on that, yeah.
No, I went to public school the entire time
I was on the show.
- Really?
- You got to have more of a normal childhood,
which I think is really cool.
- Which was, when I look back on it, wildly dangerous.
But that's the way my momma wanted it, and-
- And you had been-
- She wanted you to be grounded.
- And your parents did a good job protecting the money, too.
And I think that's important, right?
Like you, like they didn't,
there were rules that protected a certain amount
of what kids could have, but you were able to make sure,
your parents put away the money that you had earned.
You didn't even know how much you had.
- It was so funny.
My mom never told me how much money that I made
on this show until I was 15.
So, I'd probably done about 60-something episodes
before I ever found out what my salary was.
But what was even funnier was, if I needed money,
my mom still was a little bit of a control freak, though,
and she would always just give me $300.
You know, whatever I needed.
She was like, "Here, here, take $300."
She'd give me $300.
- But like, that's a lot of money.
- At the time, you know, at the time, exactly,
that was a nice amount of money.
So, it pretty much covered anything I ever needed,
is, you know, I would get this $300.
And then I remember the first time I ever went to an ATM
with my boys in college.
And first of all, I made the mistake of standing
way too close to them while they were at the machine
trying to type in their PIN code.
And they were like, "Yo, you need to back up."
I had never been before.
And then I stick in my card, and I realized $300
was the amount, the maximum amount
that you could get from an ATM.
So, that's all she had been doing,
is just going to the ATM and getting the maximum amount.
So, just innocent stuff like that
probably went on for too long, but saved me a dollar.
- That's cool, though.
But what's interesting about that, though, is, right,
like, no parent would ordinarily just give their kids
$300 all the time, which is, it's a strange thing
about your success at such a young age, right?
Which is that your parents are doing a good job
of keeping you grounded, putting you in school,
sort of raising you well.
But also, there seems to, was there a little part
of them that was like, "Our son's fucking rich, you know?
"Most kids don't get $300, but, like,
"we're going to give him $300."
- I don't know.
I just, it depends on what you get into.
Like, you know, my curfew always followed my shoe size
and my grade, so, you know, in the 12th grade,
I was begging just to stay out until 12:30 anyway.
So, it wasn't like I was really getting into too much.
I remember, may he rest in peace,
Malcolm Jamal Warner and Michelle Thomas,
probably, were the first people to take me out
on the town and break curfew, and they took me
to a record industry party that had a lot of rappers
and a lot of booze and a lot of everything.
And I was kind of a rule follower.
My mom had scared the living crap out of me
that if I did anything, I would lose the show,
I would lose my money or whatever.
So, I just didn't do a lot of things
until I got into my early 20s, and I got overseas,
and I started hanging out with some ballplayers,
and then life changed drastically and quickly.
- Is there advice you would give to kids
that are, say, like, sort of working on,
one of Miss Pat's show, when you're like,
you know what I mean, are there things you would say
to them that, like, to say, like,
to make sure that they understand?
- Well, the kids on her show, first of all, are phenomenal.
They're all looked after, and there will be
no funny business on that set at all.
- Oh, no, I don't, I told 'em from day one,
if you date, you're fired.
I don't want no fucking problem.
- They're all, they're all great kids on her show,
but, you know, ultimately, to any kid
that's performing these days, you know,
it's a different landscape.
To kids today, I really say, you know,
teach yourself to be a filmmaker,
start creating your own content,
but also don't forget that this is a profession.
Try to find people who have done this before you.
They have the experience to mentor you and share,
because just making skits and getting,
going viral doesn't make you a professional.
You know, there's-- - I saw either.
- There's, there reaches a point where
whatever talent you have could be exposed
for, you know, lack of experience if you haven't been shown
the ropes by people who've done it before you.
So, you know, I think that's what I would say to kids also,
and also do it, don't do it for money.
Do it because you feel like this is, there's a calling here.
- So there is a certain kind of story in a sitcom like that.
But also, I think these days, a lot of the news seems
like it could be from a sitcom at best,
which is why we're gonna play a game, we're calling,
you take the good, you take the bad, you take them both,
and there you have the game we're playing today.
- Okay.
- Pat, Jaleel, I'm gonna read this.
- I'm gonna read you a log line.
You're gonna tell us that this is the plot
of a '90s sitcom episode, or something
that just happened in real life.
Are you ready?
- Mm, okay, I'm ready.
- Fire away, let's go.
- All right, first up.
A performance arts center is threatened with bankruptcy
unless it agrees to let a comically greedy villain
put his name on the side of it.
- That's Batman.
- She said, "That's Batman."
- It's Batman?
- Batman.
- Wow, it's vaguely the plot of,
uh, "Break into Electric Boogaloo."
- Hilarious.
- It's close, it's close.
- I think that's a headline today.
- You're right, you got it.
- Yeah, that's the headline of that.
- The Kennedy Center, that's the Kennedy Center and Trump.
A judge on Tuesday barred Trump from putting his name
on the Kennedy Center.
- Praise the God.
- And now they voted to close it indefinitely.
- The Kennedy Center?
- They voted to close it, yeah, to renovate it, yeah.
- Who, who, who, what?
- The Trump-appointed board, they voted today.
- To close the Kennedy Center?
- Not, not, not permanently, but they're gonna,
they're basically--
- They're renovating it.
- They're renovating it.
- They lying?
- I wish Kennedy would get up with that hole in his head
and hunt the shit out of him.
Oh, I shouldn't have said it out loud.
- Next up, a young actress gets her big break
with a high-profile network interview.
The only problem, she doesn't exist.
What do you think?
What do you think, Pap?
- It's gotta be today, aye-aye.
- Mm-hmm.
That's right.
- Okay.
- This week, NBC News aired an interview
with Tilly Norwood, the AI actress
they keep trying to make happen.
- That's nice.
- Here's a clip.
- Do you have opinions on what's happening right now
in the Middle East, in Gaza?
- Ah, Chloe, that's a very heavy topic,
and honestly, it's not something
I'm really equipped to discuss.
My world is a bit more about creative expression
and the magic of filmmaking
than the complexities of global politics.
- Wow, that is exactly what a studio executive
would want every actor on Earth to say.
- And that's the problem.
- Right.
- That we are a long ways off from AI characters
being the main character in shows.
- You think we're a long way off?
- I think so.
I did.
Now, music is different.
Because music is audible, I think the younger generation
is going along with chart-topping AI.
- There's one song on AI that I cannot stop listening to.
- So I already know.
- And my sister was like, "You shouldn't listen to that.
"They not real."
I said, "But the bitch is hitting all the right points."
- Exactly.
-And it's a song, "I celebrate me."
-Music is cooked. I did not say this applies to you.
music but when it comes to film and television we just we we have such a keen eye that we're
we're searching for the truth when we're watching and i want to know if you turn actors into ai who
y'all gonna run up for an autograph the bitch can't come outside the stream
next up a working class populist starts a cult in order to get out of paying taxes
oh that's today shit you should answer that that is that is a sitcom that's al bundy
on married with children starting the church of no ma'am after realizing that by becoming a church
they would be get tax exempt status on beer purchases what i wasn't allowed to watch married
with children when i was a kid i love it i wasn't allowed i was nine o'clock yeah yeah but because
you're a couple years older so you're just i was younger than you and so for me it was like just it
was it was like so it was like considered the most raunchy vulgar thing oh it was so good for
me to cut off was generally just time oh yeah it was in my way i had a hard time

and we're back
hold on tight because it's time now for that cherished love it or leave it tradition the
rant wheel oh my god here's how it works we'll spin the wheel wherever it lands one of us will
have a chance to rant for 60 seconds on any topic of our choosing are you ready yeah all right let's
go we're ready to go oh my gosh what am i gonna rant about for 60 seconds um i i think i would like
to see natural bodies trend again i i was looking at a post not too long ago and it had all the names
of nia and lark and stacy and the daniels twins and i'm like man natural bodies would be nice to
celebrate again you know i'm saying just a good natural titty you know i did it doesn't even
you know i did it doesn't even matter i'm not gonna rant about it i'm gonna rant about it

committee you know and i know she's blessed with a lot of naturalness over here uh you know uh
you know but natural butt you know what i'm saying like all those women in the 90s just
look different man it's it's amazing uh less transforming and maybe it'll prevent you from
meeting another decepticon out there yeah that's a good idea we are what we attract all right let's
get to the next question uh pat what would you like to rant about um my kids i have six six girls
and i'm tired of them um being nasty i hate musty kids and they're just dirty and kids don't like
showering anymore you gotta be nice with them when you tell them their ass stink and they get mad
because i'd be like your ass stink and they want me to say it like a baby i smell you puka puka
no your ass stink when you get mad you're like your ass stink and they want me to say it like a
when you get hair on your vagina it's a pussy so you should keep it clean and so
you got 30 more seconds i just you know just dirty ass kids hey you know i just hate dirty
kids they filthy they don't clean up their rooms and they hide they shit in their room and they
don't empty trash cans i'm sick of kids and i just i was like use them if y'all knew how i grew up
y'all would appreciate this shit and they just eat in their room and hide shit up on their pillows
i just fucking hate kids and i understand why people tie their tubes
you thought i wasn't gonna make it through i got a lot of shit i didn't say i want you to know
something it was never a worry that you wouldn't be able to fill 60 seconds not something that
ever crossed my mind to be afraid of all right let's spin it one more time i wonder where it's
uh steve hilton who's running for governor in california we're also for pod save america we're
also trying to get javier becerra on tough guy to book and i actually appreciated the conversation
uh he is a guy that's supported by trump i obviously think that someone who is willing
to support trump that raises uh deep questions about whether you could trust them to be the
governor of this state but he reached out actually we didn't reach out to steve hilton steve hilton
reached out and said i want to come and talk to pod save america which i actually is i think is
i i respect he wants to he's willing to kind of put himself in in front of a more progressive audience
it's going to be a tougher conversation but i thought it was good to talk to him and i've been
surprised by the number of people who continue to say something along the lines of like oh why are
you platforming this person uh because i feel like that was a term that was kind of that's been a bit
abused because it's not about elevating someone who doesn't have a platform this is someone who
is the republican nominee for governor he has a platform we are trying to ask questions to
understand uh if he should if he deserves another and i think sometimes the platforming conversation
uh uh goes beyond i think what it should be about which is not allowing kind of really drawing a line
at like the way you know really drawing a line about acceptable debate but instead just i don't
want you to expose other people to people that i think are wrong as if you can't trust other people
to adjudicate a person's views and make their own judgment in a way that would align with yours so
i don't like this thing of why would you platform people can i ask you a question do you think there's
a difference between republicans and maga yeah i do i do too i do i really do i i think it's some
scared ass republicans that will not speak up and sitting in the back knowing that things are wrong
but don't have the power to speak up and then you have some crazy mega motherfuckers that's just out
front who acting like fucking food and just say oh we got racism back and white boys are cool and
they've been oppressed and all of this bullshit but i do think it's a difference between republicans
and and uh a fuck
fucking mega mega is racist republicans are scared i think there's there's i think there's
truth to that i will say though one lesson i take from sort of the last 10 years is i used to think
that difference mattered more that what was in people's hearts mattered more yeah and i always
felt like oh you can really tell the difference between a republican that really loves trump and
a republican who's afraid and is pretending to love trump but especially as we've been going
through this for such a long time and so many people have refused to speak up actually what
you say and do is who you are not what you
how you feel is beside the point if you are pretending to be a mega person there's no
difference there's no moral difference you are a mega person as far as the world knows and there's
a kurt vonnegut wrote this book about uh a guy that was pretending to be a nazi in nazi germany
and he said that uh be careful what you pretend to be because you are you are what you pretend to be
and i think a lot of these republicans are what they pretend to be so i know that there's a
difference in their hearts maybe but it doesn't matter when their actions empower someone like
trump you know
that's how i feel about it but i think it's i try i try not to clump them all together i say
some people are republicans and just and it's it's even
when you when you know something is going wrong and you don't fucking speak out or they shut you
down and you can't do anything it's like the democrats they can't do shit right now because
we don't have the majority we don't have this and that so you know i just i hate when people
clump them all together i think maga are a bunch of crazy hidden motherfuckers that don't rose to
the top they're a bunch of maggots that float now yeah i think it also matters in like how we try to
kind of figure out what's next right because we should remember that even if trump won the election
there are a lot of diehards but the whole but the majority of the country they even you know let's
say there's a third of the country that are true maga right there's a lot of people that are
persuadable that we can try to get back which i think is is important and kind of part of what
you're you want them back well we got to win we need a couple of them to win well i think people
are crossing over because i think what happened is it the people who voted that away at first it
has come to regular people door and what i'm saying oh my god he's not going to win he's not
he's going to do this they said hold on why this shit at my door so now it's that they don't they
was like well this ain't like the farmers well this all but lose my farm what they've been on
your fucking land for the uh for those data center but you were just too stupid to realize didn't you
i think the farmers really got fucked when they brought their fake beef in here so oh yeah that
