The Adam Friedland Show Retro Style Podcast – Episode 7

Hello and welcome to the Adam Friedland Show, the podcast, it's the Wednesday
episode, free
to the public. I'm joined now by Nick Mullen. How are you? I'm all right. What's
going on these
days? We've got a lot of news to go through. I'm thinking about a different
time in this
country. Yeah. In this borough even. Manhattan. In this city. Manhattan. I
think I'm thinking
the same time. It was a time before the election of he who shall not be named.
I'll call him
the N word. Donald Trump. Oh, okay. Good. I realized after the fact that I
should make
it clear. Okay. All right. Yeah. Who I was talking about. Okay. Yeah. Because I
forgot
that. It would be bad if. You could get yourself in hot water. Yeah. Yeah. But
to me. That's
the real. I never, you know, I've never used the N word in my life and I never
would. But
I've never understood. Because I can't understand. Well, you said you call him
that. Yeah. But
the, he's like. Oh, the term the N word. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. But a type of person
that ceased
to exist and just became a, for lack of a better word, a, like political
activist. And I was
thinking about, um, remember the, the people that were, uh, um, you know, they're
like,
uh, my whole thing is I live in the 1800s. So me and my fat girlfriend, we have
a, like
a phone with a crank on it. And she. Typewriter kind of people. Yeah. Typewriter
people. And
what happened to all that shit? Yeah. Where the, where, where? Yeah. You just
have that
in your apartment. Now you have it in your apartment. Yeah. You got the MacBook
back. Yeah.
Tweeting all day long. 2006 Williamsburg vibes. Yeah. Yeah. And then there's a
closet somewhere
with shoes, with shoes you whittled yourself. Yep. Yeah. Flapper kind of shit.
Out of, yeah.
Out of pressure treated wood from Home Depot. What happened to those people? I
don't know.
I think they moved upstate. Well, two, one of them fired the other one and the
other one
became, he started a podcast and then started the other half of the politics
era of hipsterdom
that eventually. You're talking about, um, call her daddy? Yes. Yes. Gavin McInnis.
Yeah.
I watched, I watched a documentary on the plane that they made about that era
of New York called
Meet Me in the Bathroom. Oh yeah. It was about the Strokes, LCD sound system,
all that. Yeah. And I, I realized
while I watched it that the only good band was the Strokes. I listened to LCD
sound system and I think
they should call this HIV sound system. Yeah. It's, it's, it's pretty bad. It's
bad. It's bad.
They, they, they were, they were telling the story. So he's like a nerd. And
then, um, he also seems like he takes himself too seriously.
He takes himself so seriously. And then he takes ecstasy at like 45 years old.
Yeah. And he's like, now I understand, um, the rhythms of the, of, uh, dance,
you know? And he makes this song. I forget what the name of the fucking song is.
And he shows it to the other guy from his label. And the other guy from the
label says, if you release this song, I will quit. And it's like, all the
lyrics are like, you know, um,
it's just like hipster. It's like, uh, I, you know, like, I liked the earlier
album or so. It's like, but like, and he's like saying it just completely unironically.
The other guy says, if you release this, I'm done.
And they have a Chinese lady also. They added the Chinese lady after that guy
quit. Yeah. Yeah. The Chinese lady seems cool. Yeah. She seems cool. We should
get her on the show.
We should get her, uh, we need a female guest. So Chinese lady, LCD sound
system. Please come, please come on the show. Yeah. Ladies and gentlemen,
please, please.
What was this? Oh, am I losing my edge was the name of the song. Yeah. And it's
about how, like, am I not hip?
Did I shit in my pants? Did I shit in my pants would have been a better song.
My pants are filled with shit. Yeah. And I'm, I've shitted my pants. Yeah. Um,
but yeah, so then I'm not cool anymore.
Yeah. Yeah. Cause it's, it's almost, that was a more honest era. It kind of,
cause all those people are the same. They didn't die.
That era was all white. Yeah. It was, it was shockingly all white except for a
Chinese lady. Plus Chinese lady. You can almost say that. You can almost say
that. And then that one man. You can almost say that. And this is a bold. TV on
the radio with only black people. This is a bold tip. Including the audience.
You don't have a Chinese lady to LCD sound system. Uh-huh. Does Donald Trump
get elected? I think no. I know. There is a butterfly effect. Everybody thinks
it's, you know, Obama gets elected. They, Fox News, Astro Turfs, the Tea Party,
Stokes all this racism.
Then you have this monster that's unleashed. Yeah. In the form of Trumpism.
Yeah. I think. No. You add Chinese lady to LCD sound system. And then some guy
in Tennessee is like, that's it. That's the fucking line for me.
Yeah. This is where I draw the line. Yeah. Yeah. I'm, I'm. Now you've crossed
it. Now my truck is going to have to be. You added. Pollution. What's her name?
Like Esther Wang or something. Some. I thought it was Captain Janeway.
I don't know. Esther Wang. Should I get a spray tan? It better be Esther Wang.
It's going to be bad if it's not. It's. Yeah. It's going to be really bad.
Esther. I like that. It's like Easter.
Well, we said she's our favorite one in the band. Makes me think it's chocolate.
Like she lays chocolate eggs. Perhaps. Do you think she does? Um. Do you think
she lays eggs made out of chocolate? I don't think. I'll take your silence.
Nancy Wang. Nancy Wang. Oh. Close. Nancy.
Nancy. Esther and Nancy kind of like. Yeah. Grandma kind of names. Yeah. Okay.
Like Nancy Drew. I think I dodged that bullet there. Yeah. I think I dodged it.
It was close. Nancy Drew, the only other famous Nancy. Yeah, it's true. And
Nancy Reagan. And Nancy Reagan. Yeah. Well, they should call her Nancy Wang.
Yeah, Nancy. Nancy. That should be Nancy Reagan's name. Interesting. If she
were alive today. Yeah. She would be top 0.01 percent. Only fans. Only fans.
Yeah. Yeah. You could do that.
You could do that with AI. Get ahead. Yeah. You could get sucked. Yeah. In fact,
I think the way out of this AI thing. Yeah. Is. We got to go back to that monocle
typewriter kind of situation. Well, you create a website that's, you know, just
a show. And it's a sitcom. All AI generated art where Michael Eisner is just
being gang raped.
For hours and hours and hours and hours. Friend of the show. And then you use
AI to generate his voice and all these things. And then if he gets mad, you're
like, no, it's, this is the future of entertainment.
Right. It's all written by robots. The robots, you can't sue me. And we saved
you. Right. From the humiliation of. I, I use chat GPT. And this is what they
said. The input data set.
I gave it a text document that says Michael Eisner being raped. Right. Because
that's the only thing I had on hand. Yeah. That wasn't copyrighted. Yeah. You
didn't have your bag with you.
And then I said to chat GPT, make me a TV show. Yeah. And this is what it
produced. So I don't know really who's accountable here.
And who was gang raping? All the Disney characters. All the Disney characters.
Yeah. Yeah. Slightly modified.
Slightly modified. Yeah. So it's, it's, it's a, so it's a brand new idea
generated by AI. So it's not, so it's not a.
So it's a mouse. It's not Mickey Mouse, obviously. Yeah. He's got blue pants.
Blue shorts. His name is Goofy Pluto and he's a mouse.
Yeah. And his penis is Felix the cat. Oh, okay. Yeah. And it, okay. Yeah. Yeah.
I mean, it's implied under the blue shorts. Yeah. No. Or it's out. It's out.
Well, during the sexual assault. It's always, it's always doing this.
Oh, like the clock. The clock. Which is not Felix the cat, by the way. What is
that clock?
It's a separate brand that was created, I guess, in the 30s. The Kit Kat clock.
Yeah. And it just looks like Felix.
And its tail is like that. Its tail does. That guy probably made a, made a nice
chunk of change.
They're still in business. They are. Yeah.
And the Kit Kat clock. The Kit Kat clock.
You think we get Michael Eisner on the show? Not after that.
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome our guest, the Jewish guy from the Disney.
I have a name. Yeah. We're sorry. I blanked.
We're sorry. He's a friend of the show. I panicked and I blanked.
You panicked. We really dodged a bullet on that Nancy Wang, but.
Yeah. We're back in hot water.
Who else is named Nancy? Nancy Pelosi.
Nancy Grace. Nancy Grace. I guess there's a lot of Nancy.
They're babies.
Nancy Wang from LCD Sensor.
Oh, that's where this started.
That's where it started.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a bad band.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The Strokes were the cool one. The rest of them were really bad.
Yeah.
But they were having fun, those kids, back in 2004, right before the vice
offices opened.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The Strokes, that would be a good name for Ronald Reagan's band.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Did he have Strokes? Or just Alzheimer's?
As a kid, did you think it was called Old Timers? Did you hear that?
Yeah, of course.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
I thought it was funny.
He's got old timers.
Yeah, he's whittling wood on a porch.
Yeah.
He's got old timers.
He's on a rocking chair.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've been recently interested in buying a rocking chair.
Yeah?
Yeah.
They're nice.
I mean, these are rocking chairs, but I like, you know, I like something carved
out of some
hood.
Yeah.
Did you go to any of these protests over the weekend?
I don't know.
Processing the Mario movie?
No.
Come on.
If you're going to do a joke, you can do a better poll of that.
Protesting the arrest of Donald Trump?
No.
He didn't get arrested.
He lost a civil case.
I mean, he got arrested a week ago, but the E.G. and Carroll thing.
I guess he owes her $5 million now.
What, is she going to spend that on jelly beans?
She's going to go to Bergdorf Goodman's.
Yeah.
It would be very funny.
Get into a little bit of trouble.
Yeah.
It would be funny if she immediately just went to Bergdorf Goodman's.
Went on a shopping spree.
I'm back.
I'm back.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I bought myself all the wonderful hash.
Yeah.
I mean, this is Bergdorf Goodman.
You go in and the hatch.
You know who would be great as a podcast?
You know they.
E.G. and Carroll and Gary Busey.
They kind of talk the same.
Yeah.
They played that interview for sure during that trial.
For sure.
Was it televised?
I don't know.
I wish.
Yeah.
You probably have core TV on that cable package you paid for.
I do, yeah.
I probably do have core TV.
What do they put?
It's cool that drawing the courtroom is still a job that you can do.
It's like sketching.
Yeah.
It's cool.
You've got to be fast with that.
Yeah.
We were having difficulty.
Did you see how fast your Marge was?
Fast course.
That'd be funny if you got a job for a day.
Yeah.
As a sketch.
A sketch sketch.
Mm-hmm.
As a courtroom artist.
Yeah.
To show everyone fat.
Yeah.
Drawing everyone fat.
Yeah.
Draw hundreds of pounds.
Drawing their tits out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's funny.
I'll say that's what I saw.
That's what I saw.
I'm an artist.
I'm interpreting what I see.
Yeah.
It's a representation of reality.
That's probably a job AI can replace.
This courtroom fucking cartoonist.
Yes.
Why you got fucking Jim Davis in the courtroom for some reason.
Why?
It's because you can't take pictures?
Why is that a job?
It makes as much sense to have a guy there guessing people's weights.
It makes no sense.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's just like a tradition or something maybe?
Yeah, probably.
I mean, it's the same reason that judges wear robes and all that.
There's no reason for them to wear a robe.
And wigs.
Yeah.
In the UK.
Yeah.
They do that in Hong Kong, too.
Yeah.
And I think Canada, maybe, no?
In the Commonwealth, they do it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, coronation.
What are, you know, what are we thinking about this?
King Charles.
How do we feel about that?
It's nice to have a king again.
It feels good.
It feels good.
Yeah.
I think we should have, there should be a shogun and there should be a black
wom
