How many orange and blue cookies have you had so far? Too many.. I've had yes. Well, we have a lot of orange and blue cookies coming in because of superstitions around Nicks Yeah, people are Whatever their traditions are, they are sticking to them right now. I was actually, I have a pair of Nick sneakers that my brother in law got for me. He's a sixixers fan. me got me some Nicks kicks. And I was talking to my roommate, Scott Herkman, I was like, oh, should I wear them for the run? He's like, whatever you're doing Do not change it. do not So they are in a box in my closet. I'm like, if a good thing happens, I will take them out of the box and then I will wear them, but I do not want to do anything that would disrupt the flow. Don't dare Don't dare you keep those in the box? I know I'll keep them in the box. The superst, it's very important. Yeah. People take it very seriously. But we're getting cookies every morning. Scott, my officemate who's very superstitious is now like, well, I have to bring cookies every day. It's those little like the black and white cookies A. the next. Very good Everybody's just like, whatate every you doing. Did he he brought cookies for the last game or the last series? For game one he brought Well, I think he brought them at the end of the last series and then he brought them and then they won, so then he brought them the next morning. So now it's just there's cookies every day. We should tell him that if we want the Knicks to make it to the finals next year, he has to bring cookies every day between now and just get free cookies. I'm just gonna to have him hand me a hundred dollars on game day. and if it works that every day he has to hand me a hundred dollars. I'm like, lookook, man, you can't argue with success. We have to keep it going The way it is. We were gonna to save the Nick T talkk for later the pet. We're like, no,'s the only's the thing we were thinking about. The only important thing happening in the world doesn't. I just I'm praying that they win tonight because otherwise tomorrow is going to be a very sad day to make the show I just need yeah. I don't need I don't need unhappy Unhappyaily show v good. Excited Daily showh sta. Yes. It's good. I feel good because. The last time I was in this podcast studio, Jordan Clepp was here and he was wearing a New York Nick sweatshirt. So we' keep the level of superstition is very serious. Okay, we're on track. Yeah. Does that mean I have to do the entire podcast in character as Jordan Clepper? I mean, if you want to, sure, it would be weird. Do you have a Clepper impression just tall and just imagine care just that's pretty good. I believe it So yes, lots of superstitions happening around the office, everyone being careful. So you have to find out you have to find out how exactly to sit in the chair be like, I don't want to disrupt any of the fungay of the Nicks vibes in the office. Exactly. Andross legged all the way. So what else were you looking at in your prep for this week? Well, you know, I always do all the prep and watch all the morning news shows to think about what we might cover and then the news changes over about three or four times before Tuesday comes around But how about that walkout ress Meet the press. That's right. For anyone who missed it, the president Donald J. Trump. hope you're not learning that right now. Very big surprise if you are. But if you are, I envy you. Yeah, right He was he sat down with Kristin Welker on Meet the Press. It was a forty minute interview. They were in a barn. It looked like for some reason. pouring rain. Yeah in Wisconsin. pouring rain. Tin rof. Tin roof. Yes, the worst roof for rain. That's I was thinking about that and not I mean that certainly happens unexpectedly from time to time and there's nothing you could do with audio when that happens they not know that it might rain I mean, there's been a lot of cuts to weather monitoring over the past two years. No one knows how or why that happened? that funding. There it is. Yeah.. So they were in a barn and metal roof, it sounded like raining. and then The presresident was asked him questions about voter fraud, and then he stormed out of the interview. Yes So now you're all caught up to speed. I think we actually have that moment. You're crooked. A least the press is crooked. so is ABC and CBS and CNN.. You're one sided crooked network. Let's call it quit because I' Thank you, Dark. H have a good day. mister President, let's please I traveled all the way to Wisconsin.'ve I travel I know. I travel ra wayonsin. On and off in the rain, and I've given you enough time. You ought to straighten out your press because you know what? A country can never be greatvel with a dishonest. Listen. you traveled all the way to Wisconsin for the C All right, what did you make of it? I traveled all the way to Wisconsin There were no direct flights. I had a connecting flight. That's a very funny thing to be like, mister President, the American people are like, I traveled to Wisconsin, man. Come on Middle seat. That's it. I also like the Rudware Trump was just listing off all the networks where he was like every at ABC is like NBC is at ABC and Nickelodeon and Disney Junior. Spike TV and Teleundoround, right What is see, this is exactly why I have never been able to trust a male president because it gets so emotional. He was at that point in his cycle and it's just too volatile. You can't take the risks. I hear you. Yeah. I hear you, yes, it was a big emotional thing. I also found it funny. It's hard to storm out of a room with eighty year old mees clearly because it was like, let's go get out of here You could see the like the storming stopped for the period from the butt in the chair to the butt out of the chair. With the law of mic. Yeah. it's hard the small little mic that you wear. didn't have a big mic like this mic. He had a tiny little mic.iny tiny microp Hard to drop that mic to be like, I'm leaving the interview. And then he stepped on it out squashed it like a bug. It is pretty pretty funny. The idea of dragging NBC all the way to Wisconsin to sit in a barn during a torrential rainstorm and then just pick up and leave. It is true bully behavior. It's bully inviting you to a costume party kind of behavior Like everybody else is in the costume but you're not. like, well, you'reranded out you're stranded at this barn in the rain Yeah. It's also like classic romantic comedy setup is like you're together in a bar in the rain That's the moment you're supposed to connect with somebody. Where she drops her binder, her over size binder and then go down and he goes down to help her pick it up and slowly come up together and realize that they have a connect and they lock eyes and then be n Sincere questions about the Iran war. Yes. I don't think so. Unfortunately, those dreams have been lost. We keep waiting for a RomCom to happen when we watch the news and it always disappoints us. If only alwaysways so disappointing. Yeah. But did we didn't get RomCom, but we did get Bravo Housewives. We did union Pretty close. Yeah, that is good. Speaking of reality TV stars, part of the contentiousness of the end of that interview was talking about the elections in California and the vote count is still going and Spencer Pratt who was running for LA Mayor He he was in second place and it looked like the runoff was going to be between him and Karen Bass, but then over the weekend, Nithia Raman overtook him for second place. so they that might be the runoff. And so there' because California's mail and ballots come in late and they count the vote late. they're saying, well there's got to be election fraud and they're cheating, Sencer Pat. So it seemed like as if it wasn't reality show enough. It's an actual reality TV star who is losing the election and pissed off about We just need a reunion show. We do. we just need a reunion show.'s So wait, you're telling me that an unqualified candidate is struggling in the race. There must be foul play. Yes, always. That's I mean, that's the only option. I feel like the voting with the mail and ballots would be so frustrating because I've gotten Christmas cards back in like May. Oh yeah. Could you imagine if your vote came back and you're like, what do you mean? I put the address right. It would be so frustrating And this is why I never send thank you notes. That's No, it's important.. You never should. Yeah. Paperless post. You gott do a paperless post, than you notes. That's That's good. it's your only option. That's it. So yeah, that was a lot of the reason for the contentiousness was saying, Well, what evidence do you have a voter fraud? It was like, it's vibes, baby. We're going on like vibes. It's all vibes So Yeah, so that was a big part of it. That was a fun drama to watch Yeah out. But it seems like a lot of that is happening now with the California election A lot of the like Republican congressmen and media figures are saying, well, it's rigged and all that kind of thing. And so that's what led to the walkout was Christian Wc going, Do do you have any evidence of this or in twenty? He was like, I got your evidence right here and And he threw the tiny mic down and he stepped on it and then went into the pouring rin. that's what I was say, Where is he storming off to? Oh Wow, that's good. I guess once you commit, you have to commit. you gott to walk out into that rain. You Yes, that's it. You can't storm off If there's a storm, you have to storm off into the storm. Wouldn't it be great though, if he went to storm off, but then realized it was rainy. he didn't want to ruin his hair. So he just stood there and kind of like looked over his shoulder awkwardly. It's the worst version of when you say like a really heartfelt goodbye to someone, but then you're walking in the same direction is you do the storm off of the interview, but then you have to hang out Yeahes, you got any plans this week? What are you doing later? You to watch the next game. I'm sorry didn't any evidence for the voter fraud thing. I just I keep remember every time I'm like, I gotta bring that evidence for F fiveive and a half years, I keep forgetting to bring that out. I should have brought a binder.

Y. Something of note to me was the obviously they were in barn, some I think John Dere equipment behind them. Another big story going on right now is the newew worldorld screwworm fly has reappeared in the U.S. Have you followed this story? I've heard about this. the screw.isturbing. Yeah, it's very disturbing It's a flesh eating worm. That's the grossest I'll get, so don't turn off don't turn off the podcast. Okay wor It gets in and this was the first confirmed case since the nineteen sixties in America. And make America great again. There we go. you know, we're bringing all kinds of wonderful things back, aren't we? Yeah Living up to its promise. But yeah, so is this is something people are really worried about It's another one of those like political footballs where on the one hand, Doge cut a screworm monitoring program last year when it was like, What if we just cut all these things? What's the worst that could happen? It's like, o Ebola, Ebola's coming back. Oh screworm? Who's had screworms since the sixties? We don't have to worry about that. Well, there's a reason Are we Allan, are we allowed to say screworm? Is that a curse word? We want to make sure this pod is family friendly Do they bleep screworm when we say screwworm? We should probably bleep screw. What we really need to do is be like screwworm.rewworm. Yeah, and then like we're gonna get in people's searches Oh, you know what I mean? There you go. So we should bleep it, but yeah, if it's like S blank blank, blank blank wor and people are like, oo, what is this? I'm gonna to click Allen, can you can you bleep? the word screw in screworm. We're just going to say screworm a whole bunch of times and if you can bleep it We have to turn this episode around really fast so we're making his life viserable too. Just like, oh, do you see the squirms this weekend well now I'm afraid where are the storms being discovered? Is it Texas? Yes, there's storms in Texas. It's near the US. Mexico border. Are the storms? Okay, so the storms are on the border all throughout Texas. Have the storms been anywhere else in the country? In America, not yet. They've only found them in Texas so far There's a storm problem in Central America and Mexico. So the right likes to say, well, this is a problem of the Biden's border and then it becomes or was it doge and all that? But what I can tell you about the storms is I love the solution to the stm Right. Tell me tell me about this what is the solution to this So what you do is, in order to stop the storms, You have they drop four million sterilized male flies. So the male flies are very promiscuous. The females only mate once. So they drop four million sterilized male flies into into the You know, the area where this they mate one time, they don't reproduce, and then that's it retty good system, right? This is great. Scientifically speaking, the solution is Fuck Boyflies. We got fuck Boyfly summer coming up. It's gonna be so hot. It's gonna be so All these getting out there, notot trying to commit, not trying to get tied down. This is the problem with with an abstinence only Fly prorogram This is what goes wrong. I know. You just This is why we can't do that. When you're gonna you're gonna scre. That leads to many unexpected pregnanies. I mean, in the name of the worm. What are we talking about? Not a surprise. Yeah, that's what they want to do. to their identity. That's it. And yet, here we go. So dropping in the how do you sterilize a fly even I am not interested in finding out all. Really. Do you have to give like the world's tiniest little vasectomy where you just, I don't know ly. That's pretty That's actually pretty impressive if you could do that. I don't have toice for that anymore. The Theittest tweezers you ever had, those little things that like watch makers or watch repairs would be good just going and snipping the fly, putting it in the pile to drop into Texas. Go have fun fly. So many ways that surgery could go wrong. Yes, it's true. What were you picturing? Nothing, nothing. Were you picturing being pregnant and being like, you said that you were sterilized? Iinking about how the flies would probably not want to get sterilized and they would be like, why don't you just go on the pill? Or how about you There's a whole argument between the male fly and the female fly It's like just do me this one favor. I have to deal with enough. Pillow t between flies It' turning it into a whole narrative. It'ook went off the rails. This is why we need betterterfly sex education.. so they know what they're dealing with and they can reproduce better boy. Do you think Jeff Goldblumers ever has to worry about this with He was famously the fly went into a machine. Maybe you make the flies huge. You sterilize them when they're big and then you shrink them back down and take them on What's the most sensible solution? I don't want to say we're the best science outlet on the internet, but I think we're up there. I would say that the fact that they cut doge is probably okay because we're here to solve the problem. We can sol it. Bill Ny, if you're watching. Yeah, if you're listening, let us know if we're right. us know There's a way we can sterilize flies. How far off are we? But wait, should we be should we be bleeping the word screw or the word worm? It's a good question. If we start talking about, well, because RFK famously had a worm in his brain. you remember that? Yeah. If we talk about that worm, do we have to bleep worm? Yeah. if it's think so. Yeah. But that's going be more confusing if you bleep the word worm and I'm like, RFK had a worm in his brain You at home have no idea what I'm talking about. the wor wor is ble. But I think the goal of this is just to continue to give Alan more work on this quick turnaround p. So Alan, if you could just make sure to bleep the word worm I think that would be Maybe we could try that. I think it would be good guys. He said guys Not any other word. Anyway, speaking of animals and livestock, you know, we're I think the number one livestock podcasts, are we? Are we on the livestock? charts? We should be. We should be We're so informed. It's not a competitive category as far as I know. We should be doing this in a barn Oh whereere's a good barn when you need it. We should have farming equipment behind us. And then you would storm off because I upset you.out. Allen, can you just edit in a barn for the background in this shot Are you able to put like a barn filter behind us Put in some rain sounds So yes, on the subject of livestock, there is, I don't know if you saw this, an albino buuffalo that is named Donald Trump Bangladesh. So I actually want to pull up a picture of this thing for anybody watching. If you're on your phone, maybe Google it. That is the Albino buuffalo from Bangladesh named Donald Trump It was slated to be sacrificed in an eid ceremony, I think, and When they discovered that it looked like America's forty fifth and forty seventh president, they said his life attended to a zoo What do you think? I think that Wait what is it? It's a it's a bu buffalo Buffalo now named Donald Trump who has goolden locks I look I do see the resemblance, however feel like If you're about to be sacrificed and you're wherever you are. You're probably breaking out a comb and some hair gel and be like, look, whatever I can do to get myself saved here. He's like if I can just a quick comb over and he's like, I'm good. send me to the zoo. you look at me. You're saying that he actually worked on his Trump impression to save his life. He sort of saw it coming. He went, I'm going to go all in on this. I'm saying he was backstage at the sacrifice gettinget ready to go, looking in the mirror, be like I need a plan here guys. Andd he just combed his hair over And now he's at the zoo. It worked out great. He actually surprisingly does look a lot like Trump I'm going to say that that buffalo would probably give a better interview to meet the press. And he would look good in that barn. I love it. He's like, I spent all this money on moose and you tell me I look like this guy This is what I get So this thing's life was in danger and then they were gonna to sacrifice it and they like, we can't sacrifice it. But it probably went back there like, this is why we need to build the bull room. We need We America needs a bullroom. Yeah, taxpayer money. a billion dollars for the bull room. twentyw billion dollars for the bull room. We're going to have all there's just going to be pentagant missiles underneath it and drones on top of it and inside it'll be This is surprisingly heartwarming I didt see that coming. Well, I did see that the zoo keeper, I think got fired. that he put Donald Trump on the name of the like, Hey, come see the Donald Trump buuffalo and they're like get out here, you can't doing that. Like they don't know. It's got to get him in trouble A huge portion of the day is spent sitting in meetings, and the other half is usually spent trying to look back through messy notes to remember what actually got decided. It's incredibly common to leave a complex conversation thinking everything is clear, but later on, the heavy mental load kicks in. Trying to reconstruct what was said, separating the background noise from crucial details, and figuring out the exact next steps creates a ton of follow up confusion across a team To solve that, a very interesting shift has been happening since introducing Plaude into the daily workflow.

What are you hoping to talk about this week when you're in the chair? The Nick winning obviously obviously Number one. I think every headline this week is going to be about the next Maybe I shouldn't say it. I don't want to drink it. Every headline, Yeahah. You got you got to knock every piece of wood around there So Scott Herkman was here. Yes. Okay. Shout out to Scott Herkman, very superstitious office mates. Very superstitious The office has been buzzing it's been very excited. Did you you watch game two? I did. It was a good game. It was a great. It was very exciting. ending So if you didn't watch the game, first of all, you should have watched a game, great game. N be a final shame on you The the Kicks are up by one, Spurs have the ball. And seven seconds left, which is an eternity of time, and it's so nerve wracking. So they inbound the ball, they pass it to Wembinyama gets the shot off and it hits the rim and misses and then the Kicks win. And after that moment, Carl Anthony Towns a cat, the big cat for the Kicks. They get the there's a shot of him and he's walking towards center Ct and he kind of points to the sky and It was sort of this touching moment. and then afterwards, the interviewer at Sener Court was like, you know, I saw you kind of pointing up after the game, you know, when you guys won, what was that moment about? And his mom had passed away, I think in twenty twenty. And he was saying, you know, you know I pray to her, you know when we need help They had the ball, they had seven seconds and I was just like, Mom, we need to stop here. And it was this like super sweet moment of him like and he's like when we got the stop, I sort of looked up and I was like he was like saying, thank you, which is this like beautiful touching moment. But in my mind when I was watching it, I was thinking, The person who can guard Weembanyama is Kat's mom from the afterlife coming down as he's going to put up the final shot, just go get that shit out of here. You're not scoring on my son. He's going to be win the NBA championship. It was just a beautiful thing. It's ex exactly what you need. seeee moms saving the day every time. That's it. They come through.rom the afterlife, it was a beautiful moment. So beautiful. Yeah. Shout out to Carl Anthony Towns.. Actually that's actually the premise of a nineties comedy. I don't know if you've ever seen it. Totally. The six man Yeah, yeah ye is Marlon Wayans's movie Friend of the show, Marlon Way. Love Marlon. Love Marlon Wayans But yes, there was a I think Two players and one of them dies and then he sticks around as a ghost and he helps them win the team Yeah. whichich look, anything that the Kick, whatever, whatever works. Whatever works, whatever whatever works to happen. You need the power of the afterlife That's it. Don't sage Madison Square Garden. like whatever is keep it working. We need the afterlife and we need you not wearing your nick shoes. I know I'm not going to wear them. They're going stay where they are. I'm not changing a thing. Yeah. Everything is going to be the same Here's an interesting fact I learned about the movie The Six Man. So in the Six Man, Marlin Wayans can see ghosts And he's the only one who can But that movie came out two years before the Sixth Sense Yes. So I think the movie The Sixth Sense is inspired by the Sth man 'Cause he was always doing the scary movies. I think the scary movie took from Marlin Wayans. So was he actually psychic? I don't know, mayaybe Wouldn't that be amazing? And scary movie, Huge at the box office. So shout out to Marlen Wayans. shhout out to So prolific that guy. I know. it's good. Shout out to the six man. shout out to Carl Anthony Towns Lets go Let's go next. anything look like ever the The real world and the astral plane are all in line trying to make this next championship happen From the ninet energy very Yeah So yes, game three of the Kns is this evening as we're recording Monday night Very exciting. Big news story. New York's mayor will be there. America's president will be there. It's a big this is a huge thing. Oh in of get booed. Him Trump or him Mamanni. I think think Manni iss gonna I don't so. Well, here's what's so weird about this is the tickets are so expensive that you don't know what the vibe of the crowd is going to be. If you're paying ten thousand dollars a ticket And the lowest the most affordable price is eight thousand dollars, right? I get first seat in the house, eight thousand dollars. eight thousand dollars. I don't know, But New York likes to boo stuff Yeah. It's hard to know orr will they put them on the jumbo trron or not? It's it's a weird situation I don't know. It'll be in the box, I think, with James Dolan, who's owner of the team. But there's all the security that they have to do now because They were gonna to do a watch party outside, which is like the watch parties has been. fun and wild the energy is there has been incredible, but they can't do that it. Yeah.
