and send it to me okay all right but i'm out okay speaking of like sweating and it being hot okay i've had it with josh welch trying to force a sweater so you know how people will put on instagram like chasing summer i've done this before like i'm in mexico in november and i've posted chasing summer i've jumped on that bandwagon you know had it with me for doing that but you know people like chasing summer josh is chasing fall at all times and the biggest conversation that i've been having with him post ear issue after we got through all of the ear stuff is the sweater issue and josh loves wearing a sweater and we've talked about this on the podcast before and he loves to force a sweater and i often say you know you're forcing the sweater it's summer he didn't care he doesn't care so uh last weekend we went to los angeles for our youngest son's parent parents weekend at the university of southern california and it was particularly hot in los angeles i'm talking high 80s all right that is hot for there that weather was available on our smart devices the weather forecast well in advance of our packing to go and josh often finds himself in a situation where we are going to a summer destination or a place that has warm weather whether it be unusually warm or or right on par for being worn despite the advanced warning of what the temperatures are going to be this mfr always throws some sweaters in the suitcase and in doing that then we have to you know he narrates everything right do you think i'll be able to wear a sweater and he starts what are you going to wear do you think that you can wear a sweater i'm like i'm not going to wear a sweater because it's 88 so i'm not going to wear a sweater so we still we're going through like now we're on our 100th um conversation because even when it's 88 during the day in la when it drops down to 70 at night it's kind of a crisp 70 california there's a crispness to it so he's talking about how he he and roman end up going to the fontaine's dc concert one night big band that they love at the hollywood cemetery and josh was talking about if he was going to wear a sweater to the fontaine's dc concert and i had to go through about a 20 minute back and forth with him about it and then he says to me you know i have this problem with some of these sweaters where i'm getting deodorant on them and i said are you like putting it on and the deodorant it's an error and putting them on and you're not you know stretching out the bottom to go around the armpit and he's like no i'm sweating and then i'm seeing like a sweat mark and so what do you do to avoid this and i said josh the fundamental thing i do to avoid sweating in a sweater is wearing my sweaters when it's cold i don't wear sweaters in 80 degree weather and that's just right out of the gates the number one way that i avoid sweating in a sweater that's my top advice for you i mean right out of the gates the number one way to eliminate sweating in a sweater is don't wear sweaters when it's hot he absorbed that and he accepted that and then we realized that's not the right way to avoid sweating in a sweater so i'm going to avoid sweating in a sweater he was kind of using the wrong deodorant and so we worked through all it was a function of the deodorant not wearing sweaters when it's hot at the end of the day he did acknowledge that wearing sweaters forcing a sweater a forced sweater um could be uh problematic with exacerbating any form of sweating that maybe the deodorant didn't cover but the conversations that i have to have with this man about a sweater i'm not going to avoid sweating in a sweater it's it's constant and it the only thing that i can liken it to was when he had the ear problem when we spoke about the ear all the time when he had the ear surgery forced ear surgery you see a theme parent forced sweater remember when he was talking to the boat driver in italy about his ear he spoke zero english yeah because he was just so desperate for somebody well and he had a captive audience he would he would just listen and listen and listen without ever responding or disagreeing here's my thing i hate to defend josh because i know i've seen him when it's 90 degrees in july for 100 degrees and he's got a sweater on like i i feel you on that yeah but when you live in oklahoma where it's 108 degrees 82 and 70 at night feels almost chilly it really i mean it really does does it to me 82 at night feels chilly i always walk outside with that humidity and i'm like oh let me just tell you i mean it is really chilly i mean it is really chilly i mean it is really chilly it has been like 82 at night when i take the dogs out 80 i am just like oh my gosh it's almost cold because you walk out and it's 108 and you're like fucking i'm gonna burn up so i kind of have a little sympathy for that because you're going to california it's great sweater weather and i have found okay so one day last week it was rainy and i was going to the gym and it was like okay it's going to be like low 80s in my head josh welch popped in and i thought i could take a sweater and put it on but then i realized no you really can't but when i walk my dog super early in the morning i will wear like instead of like shorts or a skirt or something i will wear long pants if it's like 79 because that is chilly to me

And I think, you know, y'all have known each other longer than you and I have known each other. And I dig that kind of loyalty, but it needs to be dismantled because there was a lot of propaganda in that. And let me just point you to the Wimbledon tournament, July 2022. July of 2022, July. Josh and I go to Wimbledon. We're big tennis people, huge tennis people. Josh, huge sweater guy, right? It's distinctly summer. It's distinctly a summer tournament. It's July. J-U-L-Y. The day before we go to Wimbledon, we go to the Ralph Lauren store and Josh finds this gorgeous, gorgeous cable knit sweater, white, Wimbledon white. And it was a great sweater. He said, do you like this sweater? And I said, I love this sweater. I'll be goddamned. The next day he puts that sweater on and we, and it is the force to be all forces. It is the end all be all force. There's no planet wherein this particular day at Wimbledon, I believe it was 89 degrees. The forecast was right on. It had been predicted 10 days prior. There's no planet that a rational person would think I'm going to wear a sweater to this tennis match. So this is not, I know that you're trying to apply, oh, he's looking at an 80 degree and thinking, oh, I might be cold. That's not what this is. This is a skirting of the system. This is a skirting of mother nature. This is a, a, a forced situation that I'm forced to talk about. Now, all of our listeners are forced to hear about the forced sweaters. It's force on top of force on top of force trickling down a force is what it is. Let me ask you this though. And I have not noticed this Josh. I mean, I know you were saying that he sweats in his armpit, but he's not, even if he's not, he's not like dripping sweat. He's not like a super sweater. You're not a sweater at all. I'm the super sweater. Like if that were me, it would be, my hair would be wet. I would have it dripping down my face, but he's not an overall sweater, right? No, he really isn't. I mean, we exercise together when, uh, we are in the same city and, uh, and we were, we really train hard and he's not like a, a major massive sweater. Now, if we play tennis for a long time outside, we're both but I'll tell you what he knows when you're playing tennis outside, he knows you can't force a sweater there. He's dressed appropriately and dry fit clothes. So he does have it in him. You know, he does know. Yeah. He just loves his sweaters. It's just like his would be. He does look super cute in sweaters though. He does. He does. He's so he's like to, to come full circle on this. Josh is always hashtag chasing fall. Yeah. Yeah. He's always chasing fall. He loves the fall. And I do too. It's there's something so great about a seasonal change. All right. Welcome to I've had it. I'm Jennifer. I'm Angie. She is the head beaver in charge. Head beaver. Oh my God. I forgot. I am the head beaver in charge. You know what we were talking about earlier? This is just, I'm just going to have to Kylie get in here. So we were talking about earlier, we were filming an IHIP news for those of you that are new here. This is our fun podcast, Tuesdays, Thursdays, longer format, but daily we have IHIP news where we talk about the news of the day. And it was brought to our attention on Elon Musk's free speech website, formerly known as Twitter, now called X, that there are rumors swirling all over that place that Candace Owens is a big old lessee. Now I don't know if it's true or not, but we found a tweet from that guy, Milos Yiannopoulos. And I guess he was whistleblowing on this long before the newest poster was. And he referred to her as a rug muncher. Pups and I, just, we die at shit like that. But we used to like back in the day, if you're Gen X, our language that we use to describe shit, I mean, it was like, if somebody was a lesbian, be like, oh yeah, that rug muncher. And that was just like, that was just, it wasn't even a thing. Now I feel like it's such a slur. So I agree, but I do still cut. No. And lesbians, you know, y'all are my favorite out of all the letters. Lesbians are my favorite. I want, I want lesbian presidents. I want lesbian CEOs. I want, I'm ready to usher in the matriarchy. And I want the lesbians to be at the top of that matriarchy. And then the straights can pursue below the lesbians. But I have to say the rug muncher is hilarious. It's hilarious. And we should just say it without thinking about it. Are we being bigots? I think that as a lesbian, maybe I can bring this back. Cause that's right. It's probably better coming from a lesbian than a straight. I could start throwing this around. Rug munchers. Yeah. Rug munchers. Okay. Let me tell you this. I didn't say this on IHIP news because it's pretty graphic, but there was a trend in Candace Owens posting. Okay. So on these four alleged accounts that her, are her lesbian dating accounts and her Candace Owens now stuff, she's constantly talking about, instead of saying like lesbian sex or, it's always licking vaginas, vagina. It's very graphic. I actually have this screenshot. We didn't cover this cause we cover very serious topics on IHIP news, but this is from her alleged dating profile. I'm a college student interested in meeting up and fucking, I like to lick. And I'm sure anyone will enjoy. It, it, it, it, they kind of, in that way, I was like, Hmm, that's just weird. Okay. I have a question. So is that if, if, let's say hypothetically that pumps wanted to get on a lesbian hookup site, is that the language that is used in lesbian circles? I like to lick. I don't find that appealing to be honest. Yeah. Do you see, I mean, I guess you've never been on a lesbian dating site cause you've had the same girlfriend forever. I have. Yeah. I mean, I've just been on dating sites for the lesbian side. Okay. But does it say licking vaginas and vaginas on vaginas? Most people, it's not so sexual, right? That's what I'm saying. I just found that to be a through line because it showed some of her posts from this alleged account versus her real posts. And they're, so you're saying she's talking about licking in her, just like her front facing persona and her front facing persona. She says something derogatory. Like you shouldn't be talking about vaginas, rubbing vaginas. And I just was like, well, that's, it's kind of weird the way you said it. Especially coupled with the shit that I was reading. I don't know. Maybe I'm just reading into things, but I thought that was a through line. I think it's worth us keeping an eye on. What else do we have going on? We'll keep you advised. Yeah. And we've got Trump doing all his crazy shit, but that's kind of gotten boring. It's so bad. It's just so predictable. I mean, he's the most boring, crazy person there is right now because it's the exact same plot every day. I can't even laugh. I can't even, he is so painfully boring and painfully unoriginal right now. I mean, lame dementia duck. All right, Kylie, what's next up? Okay. I've got a one-star review and luckily it's been a while since I've seen one of these come through. One star titled a waste of electricity and time and they write worthless. What I appreciate about this post so much is that they took the quote time. Right. To post it. And the electricity. That they wasted their, they wasted both their electricity and their time. And their time to call us worthless. What I love about the one-star reviews is they have the same energy as a five-star review. Yeah. But the fact that they did it in spite takes more energy. I agree. And so I really appreciate, I appreciate that he used his both electricity and time. All right, Kylie, what's next? Okay. I also have more Gen Z submissions from when we called. Oh, I love Gen Z. Sock Advice, their STD results. So if we want to play a couple of those. Yeah, I do. Okay. Here's the first one. Hi, Jen, Pumps, Kylie, and Seth. I'm Vanessa. I was born on November 30th, 2001, Sagittarius. So I am a Gen Z. And in 2023, 2024, I did test positive for chlamydia and got it taken care of, for your example. And I just wanted to update you guys on the sock situation. I think you're right on board with the lacy little socks that Jen's son's girlfriends are wearing. A hundred percent, you can wear those with a flat or a Mary Jane or a loafer. And then what everybody else seems to be wearing, or at least what I deem acceptable, is just your average, I can't bend, I may be 24, but I have the legs of an 85-year-old, just a crew sock. I love a crew sock. A short crew sock. I love a crew sock. I love a crew sock. You're right on track. No-shows are completely lame now. So I first of all want to um talk about how grateful i am that you are a chlamydia survivor yes and that you are also highlighting uh survivors of chlamydia and removing shame and normalizing so kudos to you on that number two thank you so much for the tips on this and i just want to say the little crew socks that's what we wore all the time yeah we were bullied by millennials yeah and then we had

and i'm so excited about everything that we're going to do and i'm so excited about everything that we're going to do and i'm so excited about everything that we're going to do and i'm so excited about everything that we're going to do and i'm so excited about everything that we're going to do and i'm so excited about everything that i just saw a great idea survivor that was led by the brave leadership of our own crab survivor the star of our show pumps who who normalized saying yeah i'm a crab survivor yeah i had it i had crabs i had crawling over all over my pubes awful i combed them all out i didn't shave it off how many times did it take for you to get those crap like three it wasn't just a one and done three treatments but what i what i particularly like about emerson emerson had a little uh its own little packing case and the variety the variety it goes back to you pumps variety is the spice of life you know uh you know you're you're a creature of habit with all these pretzels and stuff but maybe you need variety we need variety in socks i need variety here's the thing on the cruise talk i thought i bought some cruise socks like the short crew socks we were the long ones like back in the day they were like halfway up the shin were yours jennifer no mine were like my little cheerleading socks that would wear with our asics they were up about this high and so i was a brink bobcat cheerleader go bobcats and uh we had a little white sock that didn't go up too high i would say about i mean the size of a sport cock you know not a jumbo donkey dong but a sport penis height and then it would have these two red stripes around the top of it yeah yeah yeah yeah and then a paw like two paw marks for the bobcats and then as i progressed through school then i was a westmore jaguar in high school and we were still able and our colors were red black and silver and uh we would have both black white with the black circles with the paws in between the two lines and the paws were critical you know because it was like you know we didn't have the crowd yeah we well i went to a a suburban school district outside of oklahoma city called more public schools fun fact about more schools every school's mascot is a cat of the cat family feline feline family so like our uh our our rival at westmore high school was more high school and we had the more war and they were the more lions and they also used the paws and so yeah i would say we had a mid-size mid-size uh not too low not you know like an inch out of the ankle not too high like the dorky ones that older generations before us were like pumps but yeah for me you know it was about this big yeah mine were sport cop in high school size that that was about right they were higher in junior high but that would make sense with the age difference but yeah it's a pretty big age difference pretty big age difference it's really not that big jen i've got a there's a trend for you to look out for right now it's crew about length you call it sport cock sport cop link and it's slouchy so they kind of i used to do the slouch so i remember the slouch right now slouchy sock yeah we used to wear there was this store called units and it was one size fits all and they were in the mall and you they had like a pants skirt a type of top sleeveless top sleeveless top long sleeve and they had these belts that you put on with them and i remember wearing units and y'all have to look at it look up units 1980s trend and i had my mother and i would go to the mall and we had just a ton of units and you could mix and match them and all of this stuff and i would wear the slouchy socks with my units outfit and i thought when i had on the unit stuff i am h o t s h i t exclamation point bold neon underlined i couldn't get enough of the units i've got did you do the different units belts so like you'd wear unit shirts and a unit skirt and then use like five or six or three or four different colored unit belts so it's just yeah there we go there's units yeah those are units and i was not afraid at all to put on a slouchy sock um i don't think i would wear like three belts at one time my mother was uh of the my mother is of the school of thought if you've got it flaunted so she would think that me having too many belts on at one time would not be figure enhancing um so yeah but see yeah see the girl where the belt is units and i remember you'd go into the stores i remember exactly what it looked like and everything was folded in these like plastic containers and it was all one size but then you put the belt on and it just anybody could wear it did you guys do matching were you pat worth like in junior high my girlfriends and i would match on purpose oh for sure which one tomorrow yeah i think even first day of school junior high would roll out like what are you going to wear we're going to wear the same thing yep and you know one thing that i feel bad about the kids the gen z's the the act of note writing and the origami in which we use to fold a note and all of the like you'd write the note like dear pumps mrs jones is being such a today her class is so boring but timmy's sitting next to me and he smells really yummy today and then you draw like a nose or something with it and then we'd put on our notes would put scratch and sniff stickers and then you'd fold them a certain way and we all knew how to fold like this origami style note then you'd find your friend in the hallway and you'd pass the note and then you'd open it and hide it clandestinely under your book and then you know write a response and you'd find your friend again and the act of note writing was so good and then there was always some big you know snafu where a note got lost or a note was shared that shouldn't be shared that said some really nasty things just great stuff yeah that's right it was exciting to write notes because there was a lot of fun with writing notes and then you know it was exciting to write notes because there was always the chance it could get caught like the teacher could pick it because we would do it in class so when the teachers confiscated notes yeah that was the worst but i mean you kind of lived in fear of it so it it edged up the excitement of no passing in class for me yeah yeah i love i love the i love the gen z-ers with the socks keep them coming i actually you know what let's open this up a little bit i want next up next round millennials millennial um listeners where are you guys on the socks y'all are the ones that bullied us out of the crew socket into the no show and then what happens and y'all were the young shiny new generation hot no wrinkles etc now you know life's coming at you pretty hard yeah as it does fast gravity's coming you know tits are not as perky and you know we're probably got some that needs to be botoxed etc and now you have the young shiny uh gen z-ers coming and bullying you about the no show socks and so let's just i i want kind of a generational uh feedback i want to i want to do a little check-in with the millennials okay you heard all okay and you can send those flood at kylie josie on instagram all right i have a story that i would like to share with the class today mark Zuckerberg. I just want to remind everybody, this is a young man who is one of the richest men in the world who walked onto Joe Rogan's podcast. And he said, he's so great that masculinity is back because when Joe Biden was president, he felt like he had been neutered. And it takes a special fragile footing on masculinity for an 80-year-old, quote unquote, sleepy Joe Biden to make you feel neutered. I mean, Joe Biden emasculated you. But nonetheless, of course, the New York Times wants to immediately provide cover for Zuckerberg, much like they did Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. Here is his new profile in the New York Times. Pop this up. Mark Zuckerberg is trying something on. And I just want to say, nobody cares. Exactly. We're going to cover it because it is insane. The capitulation. And the ass-kissing of our institutions, whether they be government institutions or our great media institutions, you know, the paper of record, if you will. Kissing Mark Zuckerberg, a complete, total piece of shit that knows that his product gets kids addicted and won't let his kids use it. All right. Put up the next one. Mark says, I think if I started wearing suits to work, people would freak out. In an exclusive interview with the New York Times, Mark Zuckerberg, meta-CEO, talked for the first time about his style evolution. The profile opens by glazing over his evolution from gray hoodies to boxy t-shirts. Zuckerberg's fashion sense, or lack of it, has been well documented. From the laxity of his early California days to the gray Brunello Cuccinelli tees he upgraded to during Facebook's growth. But his Damascene dressing moment happened during COVID in Hawaii. He started experimenting, with, quote, fun shorts that no one could see on Zoom. Then friends introduced him to MMA, which led to the boxer fit. Fighters wear a lot of oversized clothes, he said, a kind of reverse flex. Everyone knows I'm in really good shape, so I don't need to show my muscles. Not unlike how the scruffy clothes of a boy genius entrepreneur were a flex. But when Zuckerberg finally went public with his new duds, it was a surprise to everyone. The story continues by infantilizing the fifth richest person in the world. Fashion-wise, he seems to be experiencing a sort of delayed adolescence. This is stuff we did in college or in high school, said the designer Mike Amiri, who helped Zuckerberg design his first high fashion t-shirt in 2024 with Haute Zuck, Haute Nile embroidered across the front, Latin for All Zuck. I don't know what to say about Zuckerberg, but he's a great guy. I think he's a great guy. He's a great guy. He's a great guy. He's a great guy. He's a great guy. He's a great guy. He's a great guy. Zuckerberg is doing this in his 40s with unlimited resources. But ultimately, Zuckerberg can't stop himself from sounding like a psychopath. Zuckerberg makes most of his purchases on Instagram, occasionally browsing before bed because he finds it calming. I don't think there's ever, I don't think he's ever been in a store, Chan joked. I think that's his wife. When he first started shopping on the app, he used his personal email, credit card, and home address for shopping. Lately, Zuckerberg has come to appreciate polos and collared shirts as a compromise between the anti-suit tech world and the reality of having to meet with world leaders. His plan, he said, is to find the 20 polo collared shirts that I like best. That's like a fire. That's a fun thing to do, right? He says each of these things lend themselves to like fun explorations, especially because, he continued, you start buying some shirts and then you get a lot more ads for shirts. And then you're like, okay, these are better shirts than the ones I bought yesterday. The algorithmic shopping experience he describes is the kind of often, is the kind often criticized for hooking users. But when asked if his new interactions with the app, have made him think differently about it, he said, "I'm not sure," and gazed off to space. Then he said, "No." Oh my God. Okay. These fucking billionaires, we do not hate them enough. We do not hate them enough. Mark Zuckerberg at 40 and multi-billion, hundreds of billions of dollars lately discovered he likes shirts. Fuck off. Right. All right, let's get on with it. Let's get on to the people that trolled him in the comment section of the New York Times. Alice 2B Music posts, "What gifts did his PR team bestow on the Times for this? Ad revenue, perhaps? We couldn't care less about this billionaire's style evolution." Odie Brick writes, "Of all the fashionable, cool, caring people in the world, @NewYorkStyle strokes the ego of a billionaire literally no one wants to read about." And Asset Studio writes, "I think he'd look great in an orange suit with shackles." And that last one is exactly where I want everybody's head to be because this is a guy who has no conviction, who feels like an 82-year-old Joe Biden neutered him, who's just now discovered the joy of picking out clothes for himself. Really? We have this infant child that's getting all of our kids addicted to all of their shitty apps. I hate him. We do not hate these people enough. Here's the thing. When I was reading this, okay, a couple things jumped out to me. Number one is MMA friends. That's a tell. His house has a vintage U.S. flag and a big eagle on the wall. That's a tell. Like all these things you think, these weird patriotic deal. And then here's the thing that just made me incensed. I don't care if people like me. I just want people to understand me. Shut the fuck up. Why, if you're one of the richest people in the world, you're fucking, you just settled a $1.7 billion lawsuit. You've got all these lawsuits. You've got these perf glasses. You're doing all this crazy shit. Why do you care if somebody understands you or not? And I think this is kind of a offensive attack before that news social reckoning comes out with Jeremy strong portraying Mark Zuckerberg, because I think from what I've read, it's kind of a takedown piece. So I think it's probably like we have to write something positive about Mark Zuckerberg, but we, it's so bad. His pitiful past fashion choices are the only thing we can think of. Here's what I, he wants people to understand him. And I just want to share with the listener how I have come to understand him. Um, initially he made a website to, um, objectify women to rate them and hotness. I believe that was the initially what Facebook was right, Kylie. And then it evolves into something that could parts of it could be like you're connecting with old friends, et cetera. And so he trucks along whatever the whole situation was saying that Joe Biden neutered you. And you said that out loud on tape on the most listened to podcast in the country for some reason, dipshit Joe Rogan, but whatever. And then you run cover for your buddy, Elon Musk, who somebody made, uh, Alex Gibney made a four hour takedown of what a piece of shit deadbeat loser Elon Musk is. And they want to run ads on meta and you choose not to, and you choose to go to the white house and kiss Donald Trump's ass. When you have enough money that you don't have to do that. So here's, here's what I understand about you. You personify this lie that we think. If you're really rich, you're liberated. You're completely liberated. And I see you as a man who is in shackles in shackles to Donald Trump, because we hear it. I have news. We'll never have hundreds of billions of dollars. We'll never have a billion dollars ever. And we are freer and richer than you. Because if Donald Trump asked me to come to the white house, I would tell that fat fuck to go fuck himself from top to bottom, to left, to right, to fuck himself in the mouth, to fuck himself in the ears, to fuck himself in the ass. That I want no part of anything to do with that piece of shit, full stop period. And here you have all of this money that you could have easily done that. And you chose to go play patty cake with the biggest dipshit evil buffoon on the planet. So that's what I understand about you. It's not what you say in your New York times article about discovering shopping, but it's what I understand about you. It's about what your actions show me who you are. Your actions show me that you are a disconnected piece of shit that thinks that the New York times can, uh, saying wash your depravity by talking about the fact that at 40, you discovered it's nice to buy different clothes. I mean, this is not unique. This is not original. These billionaires are the worst. The next president, in my opinion, needs to erect a museum called the anti-fascist museum. And in the stone, I want people's name funders of fascism, collaborators with fascism. And I want Mark Zuckerberg's name there. I want his wife's name there. I want all of these billionaires that did this because elites prop up an oligarch, elites prop up the fascist. Donald Trump would not be this powerful and acting this unhinged without this many industry titans bending the knee to him. So what I think about Mark Zuckerberg is he is neutered. He is a neutered, no ball, teeny weeny, bad dresser, piece of shit. And I will always think that and nothing will ever change my opinion of that ever. I don't care what happens because I think we're going to win the midterms. I think we're going to get the White House back. That goose is cooked for me. It is as cooked as it can be. But you know, here's the thing. I, I, I, I hate saying this, but I believe it. I think that you're right. But I think the 2028 president, let's say by the grace of the world, it's a Democrat. I don't think a Democratic president will tell all these billionaires to fuck off. I don't. I think they'll just play. You know, you're probably right. The Democratic party that we've had, fuck, no, they won't. I mean, I wish we would get somebody that would just say, fuck you and your money. Go build your bunker. The only thing I'm going to talk to you about, big boys, the taxes you're going to pay and how you need to raise the wages for your employees. Those are the two conversations I'm willing to have with you. I do think a president should sit down and talk to them and talk to them about being good people, being good members of society. You want to talk about being an American, then pay your fucking people great wages, give them great benefits, be a philanthropist for God's sake. Do something besides all this jujitsu bunker building bullshit crap that you do because everybody hates your guts. If I was president, I'm trying to help you, buddy. I'm trying to help you. Be innovative. Be innovative in the sense that you come out and you say, as a billionaire, I'm going to do something that is looked down upon. I'm actually going to, every single employee that I have right now, I'm going to double their income and guess what? I'm still a fucking billionaire. All the taxes y'all want me to pay, guess what? I'm going to pay every single one of those. Gladly, I'm going to go to the IRS offices myself, write the check in person to show that after that, I will still be a billionaire. And so, I mean, no. Well, the Democratic, Schumer or Hakeem are going to do any shit like that and be like, hey, what kind of donations can you give to us? And we'll, you know, we'll keep the DSA away from you because, you know, we don't want you to be shackled with any undue taxes. You're a victim of all of this, you know? So, I mean, I don't know. We'll see. We'll see what happens. In reading that article, though, I did, the whole time I was like, because it was long. I mean, it was a pretty long article. I was just like, why is the New York Times, like, what is the point of doing this? I mean, it's a pretty long article. This whole thing. What is the point? So, I would love to know why that- It's just a sane wash, Em. It's PR shit. All of it's PR propaganda to sane wash all of the shit and provide cover in institutions folding. And the New York Times is one of them that is not a consistent resistance paper. This is folding them. If you want to do an article on any of these people, do it on their greed. Do it on how they play victim. Do an article and ask him about, did you really feel neutered? Joe Biden, the 82-year-old man, genuinely make you feel like your nuts were twisted off your body, Mark. And I know that sounds funny, but I point blank would ask him that without even laughing at all. Did Joe Biden, you feel like your nuts were twisted off, stuck in a drawer somewhere, and now they're reattached and bigger? You feel like a big boy now that Donald Trump, who's an adjudicated rapist, who's covering up for pedophiles, and you go sit down for dinner with him? What do you think about pedophilia, Mark? That's what needs to be asked to these people by the New York Times. So all of this is just providing cover, providing propaganda, because there are real questions that need to be asked to these billionaires, real questions, and why they support the human rights violations. Mark, how do you feel about the fact that the United States government shot Renee Good in the face with her black lab in the backseat of the car three times, and then the guy called her a fucking bitch, and then the United States government called her a terrorist? Mark, how do you feel about that? Do you regret your $1 million inauguration? Do you regret going to the Xi Jinping circle jerk dinner the other night? Because nobody really gives a fuck about what you wear. We all care why you run cover for this criminal regime. And that would be real journalism. But what we're seeing are all of our institutions fall all the time. So this puff piece, nobody wants. And in fact, I would argue it makes everybody hate Mark Zuckerberg more than they did before. I really hated him. And the New York Times just shot him. I really hated him. I really hated him. I really hated him. And the New York Times showed me I didn't hate him enough. I've got more to give. Don't be a pussy. I was an underachiever in my hatred. Okay, let's move along to our next story. And I just want to say the reason we're talking about this stuff is because this podcast, I've had it. I think it's important that we document for the permanent record this shit that the New York Times and so many people are running morally bankrupt billionaires that act like they're neutered victims. I mean, it's insanity. Okay, let's move along. Some couples pumps are trying a new method to keep the peace at home. Pop this up. On the rocks, couples turn to food divorce to save relationship. Welcome to the era of the food divorce, where otherwise happy couples eat separately, even when living in the same house. Younger generations are driving the shift, ditching traditional breakfast, lunch, and dinner for solo snacking on the run to survive packed schedules and tight budgets. Post-pandemic, mismatched work shifts, meal prep burnout, strict diets, and the explosion of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic have only amplified the divide. Studies show the burden of meal planning falls disproportionately on one partner. Turning dinner to a meal plan is a big deal. And it's a big deal. And it's a big deal. And enter into a breeding ground for resentment. On the flip side, a food divorce can derail intimacy, especially for the two-thirds of U.S. adults who view food as their main love language. Okay, so the love language thing goes all through me, but that's different. That's not what we're talking about. I just, I don't know. I think if you want to eat separately, I'm a terrible person to ask. I like being alone. I was objectively terrible at marriage. So to me, I'm like, if you're hungry, you want to eat. I don't know why we have to do everything together. I mean, I do think a couple, you know, if you want to have meals together, great. But if it always falls on one person, that would piss me off too. So I don't know. It's just hard for me to relate to this. You're the happy married person. What do you think? Well, when we're not discussing the four-part question, I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. We do a little bit of both of these things. It's a mixture. We don't eat every meal when we're together. We don't eat every meal together. And then sometimes when we do, like we'll go to a restaurant and then he'll say, do you want to split something? And I'll say, sure. And then we choose what we're going to split. And then Josh has a million modifications and I immediately get resentful. So my new thing when I'm dining with Josh, because I don't cook, so I never have. I'm not, I'm not a person that cooks food. And so when we go to, to eat now, I, I'm such a cunt. I'm just going to say that from the onset. Okay. I understand what y'all see in me. I get it. Guilty as charged. But now I go and I will sit down at the restaurant. Roman and Josh and I went to a restaurant recently and the gal come, the waitress comes up and I looked at her and I said, I'll have the cheeseburger exactly the way the chef, you are exactly the way the chef wants it to be prepared. And I looked over at Josh and I looked over at Roman, like, and so she said, great, that makes it easy. Cause it was some kind of like special burger with a special sauce with it. And I just, I looked at it and I knew it was going to be a minefield for Josh. I just knew it was going to be a minefield. And so I just out of spite and sheer cuntiness. I was like, I'll have the cheeseburger exactly the way it's presented. She's how would you like it cooking? I go, however the chef would like to cook. You are torturing him on purpose. So then we get over to Josh and it's, well, I want the cheeseburger, but I don't want this. I don't want that. I want this on the side. So, um, I think that the whole idea of this article highlights the problems that people feel once they get into a relationship. The reality is some meals you have together and some meals you do eat separately. This idea that's thrust upon us that we have to have every meal together, sit down as a family is not sustainable. Let me just tell you why for a multitude of reasons, let's say that you're, you don't have kids. Somebody works late. Another person didn't get to have that big of a lunch. You need to take care of yourself. And if you live together, of course you need to be able to say, I defer to whenever you need to eat. And there are going to be certain nights that are date nights. And, you know, there are going to be certain days that you don't need to eat. And then there are going to be certain days that you don't need to eat. And then there are going to be certain days that you don't their activities are so overwhelming. These kids are signed up for so much shit that this idea that young trad wives, I assume, think, oh, we have to sit down and eat every meal together as a family. It's just not, it's not realistic. And so I think almost the way it's framed is this idea that society projects what marriage is going to be like, what family is going to be like. And it's this, you know, togetherness and this tidy unit of unity at all times. And it's just simply not that. Sometimes you, sometimes your kids drive you fucking crazy. Sometimes you hate your husband guts. Sometimes you love all of them. Sometimes you eat together. Sometimes you don't. Don't make a big thing about it. If you are able to say, okay, on this night is when we're going to do a big group meal, do it. And everybody else eat what you kill the rest of the time. Do that. So I think kind of the framing of this is what leaves people once they get married. And I think that's what I think is what I think is what I think is what I think is what is like, oh, this is a lot harder than what I realized. I thought we were supposed to do all this together. And really it's, it's unrealistic. I thought we were supposed to do all this together and I thought we were supposed to enjoy it and I was supposed to love it. And what's wrong with me that I don't want to do this all the time. I completely agree. And I, I think, I think everything you kind of have to, you know, do, do your own thing. I think when you try to micromanage people, that's when you get in trouble. I completely agree. I, I, I think that I do enjoy, despite Josh's ordering the, the, the special requests side of this, none of that. It is exhausting, but I do enjoy eating with him. I do enjoy when we go out or if we get takeout at home, I enjoy it. But I also enjoy sometimes just eating by myself. Yep. Yep. I agree. All right. Listen up. The book is a few days away from dropping. Not today, fascist. Please pre-order it. Go to your independent bookstore to pre-order it and stay tuned. I'm going to be doing an online book tour stop that everybody can attend. And our fabulous friend, Ruth Ben-Ghiat will be moderating that. We'll have a date soon for everybody to come make sure that you have the time. It'll be in the evening. And Ruth was instrumental in helping me write this book. I find her to be, intellectually intoxicating. And I find knowledge to be incredibly therapeutic, even though all of this crazy shit is happening in the world, knowing what it is and understanding what it is helps me know what we have to deal with. So please do me a favor, pre-order it. And we will be back later with more grievances, of course. Yeah.
