In short
Two hosts (Chris and Jason) riff on a muggy NYC Sunday, fashion (Pyrex shorts, leopard-print rules), internet celebrity Perez Hilton and his “era,” and their own weekend social whirlwind in the Hamptons (clam bake, book signing, seaplane travel). They also debate “bird cam”/AI bird feeders, surveillance vs convenience, and what’s “too weird” in pet ownership. They finish with music talk about Charlie XCX joining The Strokes, and a debate over Stella LeBeouf/Lefty’s hit song and whether her rich-dad background makes it a psyop.
Guest backgrounds
No guests appear; it’s just Chris and Jason.
Key claims
Facebook Marketplace can lead to joining cycling crews. Leopard can be a “neutral,” but straight cis males should mostly avoid it (they argue leopard shoes are the safest option). Perez Hilton’s celebrity-criticism style was harsher pre-celebrity-control era. AI bird feeders are a slippery slope toward surveillance; feeding birds is fine but “making it about you” is dark.
Notable examples
Diplo and his “chief of staff” on a Blade Aqua Lounge seaplane; Urban Jürgensen clam bake; Derek Blasberg book signing; Perez Hilton’s merch/“Red Bubble Jesus”; Drake “barking” edits; bird-window death; Surfline/wave cams; Stella Lefty’s “I like it when you’re nice” lyric.

The thing about Facebook, you might find more than what you're looking for. From a browse to a bike ride, this summer, find more on Facebook.
0:48close the windows how long gone uh it's a muggy sunday here in new york city i just got back jason i know you've been pumping you're spying on the neighbors like a good suburban homeowner it sounds like the perfect sunday from where i'm sitting chief that's right yeah it's it's 11 14 a.m
1:05Jason Stewart:on sunday god's day i've already pumped and i'm already kind of opening the slats of the blinds in my office and peering out to see you know what's going on across there yeah it looks like there's a hoarder dump going on okay and it's been loud you're going you're going wilson mode you're going wilson mode sunday morning peering over and you're seeing now have they brought in uh this is when you know it's serious have they rented a dumpster they have two dumpsters and they have a truck oh shit shit okay two dumpsters in a truck do we want to get this thing off market should we go over there and kind of see see what they want i think it's day three of the dump so it's it's really gone i think they really are hoarders but they're they're cool people they're like um the lady is like austrian or something she's probably 80 now but she was a scuba diver in the 60s and she has all this badass gear and like cool stuff and you could tell she used to be like with it and cool and athletic and fun and now you know she's old and it's depressing you know sure it's gonna happen to you chris age comes for all of us yeah i know bitch don't you have to tell me i've seen how good your dad looks though never mind it's not gonna come for you my parents my parents do look pretty good but i still think i could i've done more damage to my body than they ever did like there's no they couldn't catch up if they started now you know what i mean yeah but you also have done so much more you know therapy group therapy other you know you've done so much more for the mental that you've expanded the black brain that's right yes yeah i've expanded the black brain famously yeah but this is this is the last night of uh home alone nut hangery going on.
2:46Jason Stewart:So it's bittersweet over here. Party's over. Yesterday I was like, what am I going to wear around the house today? Pyrex tears shorts. Pyrex tears shorts on at this point. Okay, so you got the Pyrex tears shorts on at this point. The AC's on 68. It's really the yin to the yang of the Hanover green basketball short. Similar material similar drawstring. I don't know who did what first, but it seems like there's a little bit of a copycat thing going on. What do you say, Chris? A comment from the Hanover Corp? We all probably copied it from Champion, so I'll give them... I'll write that down. Champion, that's with a CH?
3:34Yeah, a CH. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like a victory.
3:36Jason Stewart:I think it's pretty clear that you guys ripped off Pyrex. I would love to rip off. I don't have any OG... Tim's the only person I know with original Pyrex, but you're saying you have the Pyrex on ice. Yeah, and I'm not afraid to really wear it out. I guess wear it in. I am literally afraid to wear it out. I won't wear it to Starbucks for crying out loud. I was about to say you are scared to wear it out. Actually, if I walk around with my Pyrex tear shorts around my neighborhood, the amount of 13-year-olds who are going to finally respect me, they're like, bro, we thought you were gay this whole time.
4:06That's actually true. Yeah, you got the pink Erica manuals for Monday, but today it's the Pyrex. You got to get your short rotation right to impress these teens. You know, they're checking.
4:17Jason Stewart:I throw them off. I'm walking around with my burnt orange Eckhouse shorts, and they're like, yeah, that's pretty much what I thought he was going to be doing. Confirmed, and you're able to switch up on them. Yeah, we collected. I guess also speaking of fashion, I was listening to Joe Budden, Joe Budden's podcast, and much like whatever it might be, xanax or peptides you kind of have to cycle in and out of of the joe button podcast i found and speak for yourself but go ahead i know obviously some people make it a priority in their life more so than others i i've found that i reach for joe joe's always there in the background at a nice low hum but i only reach for him when there's nothing else and lately there's sort of been nothing else podcast my podcast well is is dry so i'm listening to joe he was he was mentioning on the fashion tip that he's not mad at wearing a little leopard print and he said leopard goes with everything and i said it's a neutral it's a neutral yeah i mean but what a crazy thing to to think of on a sunday morning right and to and to learn this information from well uh a down low rapper i can't remember what he was i i remember him saying this i can't remember what the garment was was it maybe a bathing suit or was it underwear i can't remember they were talking about a guy who was um being extorted they had photos of him wearing like a leopard on a bed and they were trying to extort him with these photos and joe's like i'm not mad at a little leopard and everyone's like what there's a classic and then they called him a bam bam or a flintstones ass for wearing the leopard and i was like that's right i guess a lot of a lot of the flintstones Both of those things can be true.
6:03It can be a neutral that can be pulled off, and you can also be a Bam Bam looking motherfucker as well.
6:08Jason Stewart:I was thinking, I mean, from chocolate brown to baby blue, black, red, orange, purple, leopard does go with everything. It does. How? I know. I don't know how either, and I feel like zebra is not the same. I feel like leopard, there's a pair, I believe there's a pair of leopard Belgian loafers that someone has. Right. That's a really nice pop there for the feet, you know? It's a nice pop for the feet. I think it's safe to say straight cis males should not wear leopard, or they cannot pull off anything leopard. What do you think? I disagree. I disagree. There's probably not me, not you, but I feel like there's someone that could.
6:46Jason Stewart:I mean, I guess it's like the Lenny Kravitzes of the world, like truly advanced in terms of swag as well as body can only pull it off. Yeah, but I think when we think of leopard, we think of like a thong or underwear or a bathing suit. The leopard jacket, leopard pants. I actually think leopard shoes are the best option. I think that's the most straight, least attention-grabbing, but still with your little pop that you're trying to impress. It's the closest thing, too. It's still extremely gay, though. A jacket is crazy. Pants is really crazy. Shoes, I would try. I'm not even going to lie to you, bro.
7:24I would try it. Okay. I would try it. I have some snakeskin shoes.
7:27Jason Stewart:You're the most straight version of a gay guy. I mean, I guess that's true. I mean, I need to, I'll look into this a little bit. Not that I'm going to, I'm not going to go drop 700 tomorrow for a pair of shoes I'll wear twice. But, you know, if push came to shove, I would try it. No, I mean, obviously they do exist. I'm sure there are straight guys out there right now wearing a leopard print shoe of some kind. I'm just saying. It's tough. It's tough. But it's nice to be back with Joe Budden. And I don't know why it's just, I want to get into the mood or get into the habit of listening to it right before I podcast because it's a podcast hat that feels good on my head.
8:06Jason Stewart:Like it puts you into a while and out. It does put you into a kind of mood. While and out type mood. It puts you into a while and out mindset. It does. It's really beneficial for somebody who does a podcast show. It does. Because no other podcast put me. I mean, I was listening to Tim Dillon talk about Perez Hilton's suicide attempt on TikTok. and I was like, well, that's not going to put me in the mood. Bad mood. I want to hear about Perez Hilton cutting his face open with a knife and then let's do 45 minutes on Iran. Literally. It's not fun. I was able to resist watching the Perez Hilton video and I'm pretty proud of myself because I was obviously as a Perez.
8:47You know, I've sent you the picture of me and Perez back in the day. We've met. He was a he was a he was a fallout he was a he was a fan of fallout boy i believe in the picture that i have with him bitch who wasn't i i believe in the picture i have with him he might be wearing some sort of when pete wins had a brand i feel like he's wearing that brand in the photo oh wow but i can't i gotta find it i think it's a track jacket from that brand if i'm not mistaken but
9:13Jason Stewart:are you talking about clandestine industries exactly clandestine industries yeah not to be not to be confused with the the hot spot bar in dime square pete was first as usual yeah he had the he had the hoodie that had like a furry hood on it kind of vibe yeah bro oh yeah come on dog this is a this is a movement this was like post american apparel purple hoodie but not that post rylan's listening i know he's got all of this in his closet so if i need to borrow a size large i know where to go i found there's a there's a instagram account called clandestine underscore master list, which is basically just sort of a master document of all their SKUs over the years.
9:53Okay. Could you, yeah, forward that to me. I just want to see what's in there. Cause I kind of, thank God.
9:57Jason Stewart:I mean, most of this you already have, but I mean, it's good to kind of fill in the last few boxes. I wasn't sponsored by Macbeth. So I was able to wear, you know what I mean? I could wear several brands in that. Yeah. For when your parents say no to Macbeth, try clandestine industries. Yeah. You can get the bat hoodie. There's probably like a heart, you know, know drawn somewhere but the press stuff is is dark as hell and i do think that the uh yeah i don't i'm a little confused as to i just feel like all these these social networks are so censored all the time that this being live for like a half an hour feels crazy to me but i also don't think it's like some conspiracy like there's no why would anyone want that to you know what i mean it's not like they need those eyeballs so bad you know do you do you what do you think about people who are alleging that it is performative and not real actual self-harm just doing it for the attention.
10:52Do you think it's ketchup or like?
10:54Jason Stewart:Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I've heard a few people say that. No, definitely. I mean, I feel like it's, I mean, he's in the hospital, so I don't know. I mean, I would choose to believe that he's definitely, I mean, obviously the guy wants attention. That's no secret. I don't know. I mean, sure, anything's possible, but it doesn't feel that way to me. That's a pretty. I was just thinking, I was thinking how crazy it is that this guy's name he will be forever known as Perez Hilton which is the name of a famous celebrity but then you change the letters around on the first name well he's he's it's his it's his Spanish heritage it's a play you know it's a it was a it was it was he was having fun I didn't know that I didn't know that yeah yeah but I do think that he's um I guess some people listen to this podcast might not have been around for his sort of reign of terror but it really was it's really hard to express how different of a time it was and how the the way that the media talked and treated celebrities yeah was so different before the celebrities controlled everything the claws were out the claws were out in a way that is is unfathomable to like a 25 year old like in an unbelievable way like just straight up like calling somebody ugly you know what i mean just like that and and being so direct and like all the little illustrations he would do but then the more fascinating part was that sort of a certain like someone like katie perry was like they would befriend him because they were so scared of him so then they had to hang out with this loser so that he wouldn't draw like coke coming out of their nose leaving the chateau marmont and and that was the trade like that was the trade like that's how thirsty he was is that like the only way to be spared was to like go to his hovel in the valley and spend time with him come yeah come kiss the ring and maybe i'll go nice on you this weekend yeah which is sort of what we do as well just indirectly we don't we're not doing it with the intention of doing that but sometimes that's the way that you know things shake out well i but anyone in the media not just somebody who is known for skewering and drawing dicks going into your mouth yeah yeah with ms paint do you know anyone wants to sort of buddy up to them and then you know if you're a person who's talking about the outside or the inside from the outside you know really freaky looking guy though he looks really crazy yeah he's always looked kind of crazy but he looks really his his look is is because you know he found god um of course so he found god he got a mustache and then he started looking i guess he did start looking more mexican now that you say it he did look more mexican but he also he was selling i didn't know this but i during this last week i saw that he was selling merch because he was low on cash.
13:28It was like Red Bubble Jesus t-shirts that said nothing. They just didn't say anything. It was just like a picture of God. It was pretty sick.
13:37Jason Stewart:And that one was not paying the rent, so we had to start chopping it up as Lana would say. Did you chop it up? No, man. Exactly. But it was so funny. I was like, oh, man, what do these shirts say? And I was like, oh, yeah, he probably wants to distance himself from that and only sort of uh shine the light on god himself atoning for the sins and now that i'm looking at a photo of him with a mustache and then thinking about his latinx heritage he's sort of you know he looks like pedro pascal after like a three-week bender or something like that like like a pedro pascal mugshot is sort of his you're being very you're being very generous is pedro pascal with stage four maybe but you're being you're being very nice dude you're being very nice pedro pascal is a is a hunk perez hilton in his best days was not a hunk and he definitely isn't now okay okay this hunk on his worst day and then prez on his best day pray for pray for perez and his family though you know he has kids i remember he used to come to cine space back in the day definitely no he was around We would hang out and everyone would freak out about him being there more so than the celebrities he was covering.
14:49Oh, for sure. I mean, that's the thing. It's like sort of like, I mean, obviously there were people that preceded him in that way, but he's sort of the OG internet version of that for our generation. You know, it was a little, like there was a face to it where some of those early like, you know, oh no, they didn't. Or there's so many of these weird like live journal gossip things, but they were kind of faceless.
15:07Jason Stewart:Right. And he had a face to it. And I think because he was so out there publicly and then everyone knew what he was doing, which was, you know, talking about these celebs, you wouldn't just go up to Lindsay Lohan in the club and start talking to her. People don't do that. But with Perez Hilton, he's got pink hair and he's saying, come on down. And he's taking 100 selfies a night. Yeah, him and Jeffree Star are really holding it down on fucking Hollywood Boulevard. What a time. What a fucking time. Between the two of them, try dyeing your hair pink. this town the sign that i'm getting yeah the thing i'm taking away from this is dye your hair pink once in your life you gotta dye your hair pink if nothing else yeah have you ever done that chris you ever done like a crazy i've had yeah i've had some unnatural hair colors during some of my i did blue i did green maybe purple but i never did pink no i did a uh when i was in an evada hair show uh i i did an orange helmet style with bleached eyebrows um which is not something i'm proud of but you try to say no to three hot chicks with Coke.
16:09I was paid. They fixed it the next day. I mean, it could have been worse.
16:13Jason Stewart:They put your brows back the next day? They did. Yeah, they put my brows back there, like I'm Mr. Potato Head. They put my brows back the next day. Seeing you with bleached brows sends a shiver through my body. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Sounds about right until you actually do the goddamn math. For most, business shipping is that thing.

We avoid the doctor because we're immature and pathetic. But when I do go, I feel like I leave with less information than I went in with. They look at me. They see that I'm healthy. They say, you're fine. They tell me to drink more water. I said, not possible. Maybe they wouldn't order the testing that I want. They don't want to go the extra mile, Jason. I don't get the data. I don't get the game plan. Just to see you next year, jiggle your nuts, and then we're out the door.
18:07Jason Stewart:Which is why I love Superpower. It's one simple blood draw that gives you information on over 100 of your blood biomarkers. This test gives you a much deeper understanding of your body across 17 core systems, including heart metabolism, thyroid, inflammation, and even environmental toxins. Superpower makes health easy. They send a licensed professional to your home or you can visit a nearby lab. They'll give you supplement recommendations, prescription suggestions, give you your biological ages, and it will plug in your medical history, old tests, family history, and things like that into its recommendations.
18:44Jason Stewart:Very powerful. Great way to get something more than just a one-time snapshot. It's going to track that health over your lifetime, build up a great custom plan just for you and your awesome little body so take control of your health with superpower for a limited time how long gone listeners get 20 off their superpower membership head to superpower.com and use the code how long for 20 off and after you sign up they'll ask you how you heard about superpower and tell them that the podcast how long gone sent you me too bro you know i might have a picture of that somewhere actually do not do not send that to me through the cloud no no no ever no i don't image on no bro i don't you kidding i don't want that i i hate that more than you do i'm the one in the picture i mean you know it's it doesn't get worse it doesn't get worse than that well i'm happy i made it out though made it out um speaking of things that are chris is prone to be doing i was watching uh your number one go drake and he just like you is a barker i didn't know that sometimes you'll bark sometimes you'll bark on the podcast you know what i mean when you get all excited and drake he he was on one of those you know brain rot dating shows he was he was really good on it he was really fucking funny there's a fat yabo goth baddie and she says bark like a dog and he boy does he bark i believe he barks the tune of one of his own songs i haven't seen the clip yet but i'm i'm hearing there's been i've i saw an edit where they changed the bark to be oh i see okay okay to be kendrick lamar Oh, come on.
20:15And he's going, bark, bark, bark, bark.
20:20Jason Stewart:Okay, wait, that's funny. I'm back. I would play the clip on the podcast right now, but it's better. You have to go watch it online because, you know, his mouth lines up with the bark. Drake is so fucking funny, dude. Those videos are so... I watched a couple of clips, actually, before we got on. He's so funny. He's an entertainer. Do you think he has... Do you think he has a desire to take down a goth baddie? I think he's probably at a stage where he'll take down anything. Has he tapped a goth team? Oh, for sure. He's had a bow house team.
20:54He's in the goth room at History, the club he owns in Toronto, and they're playing Joy Division, and he finds something to take back to the bridal path. He's not above it. He's not above it. Okay. Imagine if Drake started dating like a classic kind of early 2000s goth baddie. That would be the twist of the century. He finally bagged a suicide girl? Suicide, I think that Drake is probably an equal opportunity employer as long as you're thick as hell. But I think that it depends on the level of tattoos and kind of cat eye makeup he's comfortable with. That's the real question. Because the music, as a musician himself, I'm sure he can find beauty in Suzie and the Banshees or whatever.
21:43Of course. But the rest of it could be tougher.
21:45Jason Stewart:He's not doing Throbbing Gristle. He's not doing Einschleiners New Boten. We're doing The Cure. We're maxing out of The Cure Joy Division for Drake, goth batting. I don't think he's going to do anything he can't pronounce. Sexually, he would, but I mean, musically, I don't think he would. Yeah, so Drake Barkin, good for y 'all. I did finish Five Star Weekend. What a rollercoaster sure it was do check it out chris i know i need to check it out i was gonna try to watch them this weekend but i just i was i was too activated bad man fucked you're too activated meaning you had too many like activities to do well for i went to i went to the hamptons i got back an hour two hours ago you did your own five-star weekend i did my five-star weekend it was two stars flynn and i did a clam bake for urban jurgensen at at the founders at the founder's house and it was fucking sick actually it was really fun urban jurgensen no phone call bro fly me out what the fuck sorry i don't i think the i mean i think that flynn had to bring 10 guys and clam juice in his car you know what i mean i was talking to i was talking to amanda flynn's girlfriend she's like yeah we we drove everything in from the city i was like what do you mean she's like well yeah i mean i was making sure like the the vat of clam juice didn't spill in the volvo and i was like that's that's full new car category you know what i mean like you spill clam juice in the car that might be it like you might have to total yeah i think it's total i think it's total i don't know if there's any way to do it uh but we did that on friday which was fun it was a pretty good turnout considering like i don't really have uh a lot of ties to the the hamptons community but then on on saturday i went to uh i went jeff and sarah's house and then derrick blasbergers in a book sign there's an opening a gallery so there's all the shit to do suzanna and bryce were there so i i'm maxed out but the highlight of the trip is this i took the seaplane to and from oh where does the seaplane leave in in new york or in the city it's it's it's like it's like fdr like it's like it's a 10 minute ride on the fdr it's it's the blade aqua lounge but i wanted to describe so so on the way on the way there it's a friday afternoon you know i'm waiting in the blade aqua lounge and uh what's the what's the amenity story at the blade aqua lounge well you're outside but it's covered they have a bar um and they give you these these weird cups that I've never seen before that that sort of they look like like full-size Tervis tumblers almost but but they're but they're I can't it's really hard to explain but then obviously there's rosé in it or whatever uh and so it's me and and you know the plane holds whatever maybe eight people maybe ten you know the other guests of course are exactly who you expect like a guy in shorts and flip-flops like you know talking about deals too loud like sweating then like two two or three guys that are like in suits no luggage like clearly like real businessmen who like won't get off their phones like they they're they seem like they're doing deals they have two phones it's also like the hottest day of the year i want to be clear it's like the most humid day of all time sure then me then me who i would say is is somewhere in between those two types and then showing up last but not least friend of the show diplo oh wow diplo and his chief of staff who i just saw he was given a motorcycle as a birthday gift from diplo his chief of staff do you know yeah who we're talking about here i don't i don't know his name but i wanted to because so diplo's got a backpack and a cowboy hat and a few other hats snapped to his bag to his backpack because he's djing surf lodge and the the the chief of staff is like a pretty good looking white guy in good shape obviously um and he is he's he's wearing a t-shirt that says on the back only on the back there's no print anywhere else mullet daddy in cursive um and he does and the chief of staff does have a kind of a mullet and i was just sort of like when you keep saying chief of staff what do you think that's what they call him job okay okay that's what he calls him i would say that he's probably so this is not tour manager you're talking about i think it's probably all of the above i think it's probably at this point because i also learned something this weekend which i don't know if it's true or not i'm sure somebody will confirm i've been told that the Diplo's Run Club is making more money for him than any of his other endeavors right now.
25:58Jason Stewart:Really? Because of ticket sales and sponsorship opportunities. Yeah. So he's able to go. He'll go DJ Surf Lodge, make obviously a bag. And then the next day, 3 ,000 people pay X amount of dollars to show up for the Run Club. And it's sponsored by whoever. And all of that's going in his pocket because there's no overhead. Piccolo Bultra pays 400 grand and he DJs with Marshmello and we're all in bed by 8 p.m. Exactly. But they were living the dream. The whole thing was amazing. And on the way back today, it was me and what looked to be the CEO of Live Nation who was wearing two pieces of different festival merch at the same time, which is something I've never seen before.
26:41Do you remember what it was? Lollapalooza on top and I think Bottle. there's another there's another festival called like bottle rocket or bottle something yeah um
26:50Jason Stewart:bottle rock it's a napa napa valley yes it used to be kind of small and very food and wine and now it's big interesting i guess they all i mean i guess if they they get popular they they can't help themselves can't help yeah 2024 stevie nicks pearl jam it's really big in uh 2025 green day justin timberlake noah kong jesus christ so that's the same same size as coachella that's just that's That's everything. Yeah, that's every festival is the same. Except over and over in Napa Valley, E-40 gets much higher billing than he would somewhere else. E-40's not looking for E-40. Look, E-40's playing at 1230, but stick around.
27:25Pearl Jam's on at midnight.
27:26Jason Stewart:In Denver, E-40, you know, he's playing before Mall Rat, poor guy. Oh, shit. Now, we can get your flights, bro. Just come on out. We'll figure it out when you get here. Yeah, the plane takes 30 minutes, and the drive is three hours. so it's a pretty unbelievable difference uh i would say and i because i just got back from copenhagen and i was like i can't sit in the car for i can't do it i just can't do it so i'm very happy that i did and it felt it was i mean the pilots are a little young you know yeah you kind of want them to be young i think for those little guys yeah that's a good yeah that's a that's a good point that's a good point as long as they're male you know age is sort of well of course yeah no no of course i would have i would have deplaned if i see come on you know and i'll be leaving i'll be heading out there's another flight in an hour right um but yeah i went to i didn't have to go to any farms this time so it was a good it was an oh i mean i was able to zero churning well they did the the good people at urban yurgerson did stock the hotel room with all of the bad boy treats from round swamp which i i i had to bring back some of them or alex would have left me yeah you got to come back bearing gifts from the swamp but when i went to jeff and sarah's house i mean it looked like the damn farm in their kitchen i was like you guys have every fresh vegetable you lived five-star weekend i i did bitch i did i did i was walking i went to a derrick blasberg book signing at book hampton with two kids i mean it was a whole fucking thing you know how many more how many more books can we sign buddy come on let's wrap it up i think in the hamptons it's a whole different crowd it's like you know it's it's uh people that you're not going to see in the hamptons it's like what are we doing and there's a there's a book something somewhere and you gotta go.

29:03It started at four, but I will say, let me give Derek a shout out because he picked me up from the airport.
29:08Jason Stewart:Period. And he's like, do you come to this? I'm like, oh, actually, I'm coming that day. He picked me up from the airport, which is, obviously, it's a 10 minute drive from his palatial estate, but still, that's a nice thing to do. What kind of car? Well, there wasn't much room for my duffel bag because it was a brand new Porsche. So, you know, the back seat, Jason, you know, it's small. You know how that is. You couldn't fit back there. It was, he had to take his golf clubs out in order to fit your rim-o-wah. He had to take his Padel paddles out and just put those in the little trunk in the front.
29:41Okay.
29:41Jason Stewart:So he picked you up in the little 911 convertible or no? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Top down. Yeah. Top down. What color interior and exterior? Ooh, I don't, I think it was a, it was a tan interior and like a tan, it was nice. It was very tasteful. It was khaki on khaki. I believe he's going khaki on khaki, like a real St. Louis fucking type guy. Who do we think we are? I like it. Okay. I mean, obviously jealous. Surprised Derek knows how to drive, but whatever. I just wanted to say that to make sure he's listening. I felt safer in the car with him driving than with Sarah driving, if I'm going to be honest.
30:14And that's not a thing. That's not a war of the sexist thing. That's just strictly paying attention.
30:21Jason Stewart:One person is just a better driver than the other. Gender is not a part of this at all. Yeah, that's just what it is, dude. that's just hey bro that's just what it is that's totally valid i was something happened at their house that i thought i i could see this for you jeff was like my mom you know used to get me a city bike subscription for christmas but this year i asked for something different and he got a he got a bird feeder that has a camera on it oh no and it's able to identify the bird so you see all the you learn which the birds are and i'm like jason that feels like something i could see you dipping your toe in as we as we get deeper into our lives um i would say thank you but i'm not going to take this as a compliment no no it's not even it was just like i get why you i get this actually because you know i mean i guess it's different they have kids to show and shit or whatever but overall i was like i didn't know bird houses i didn't know they had come to the i didn't know we'd gotten to that point technologically bird technology has advanced a lot i it's it's it's funny i'm only slightly on guard because Carolyn makes fun of me a decent amount for TJ's birds.
31:27Jason Stewart:She just seems to notice that I notice birds a lot. You mean, okay, and we're not talking about hot chicks, to be clear. We're talking about birds. We're talking about winged animals only. Oh, so you're saying you're already trending this way and I've hit a soft spot. Is that what we're saying? Yeah, and also my, yeah. Yes, exactly. This spot's a little tender because, oh, my mom, she likes photography and she's not a birder. She doesn't like go birding. But she likes to go out and she knows about birds. She'll identify them. And I don't think about birds ever. But when I'm out and I see a nice bird, I'll notice it.
32:04Jason Stewart:Or if I'm looking out the window, a hummingbird is bopping around. You'll comment. I'll leave a comment. I'll like and subscribe. actually it's maybe a year ago we have in our in our living room we have that big front window you know what i mean that's facing yeah yeah beautiful beautiful for birding or spying on the neighbors it goes both ways yes there's a nice glare so when you're outside looking in you don't have a clear vision of what's going on unless it's night nighttime and i have the lights on thank god thank god because this weekend they would have seen some shit a lot of pyrex balls and change hanging out the side this guy pyrex has balls out stretching what the fuck is going on i mean what a limber guy for his for his yeah size and age wow i can't even see his head through the window but he seems to be able to touch his toes this is really impressive actually wow and what what an impressive thigh gap as well and the lats are nothing to sneeze at either okay so we're we're hanging out just like whatever middle of the day sunday afternoon just like today and you just hear a big thud a bird flew straight into the to the window and died and carolyn was was like on the floor stretching like saw it all go down from like five inches away from the window so it like it changed the energy of the whole week the whole day it was just because she saw a bird die and then she looks out the window and the bird is like on the dirt, you know, in the dirt like kind of last moments of life before it croaks and so anytime there's a little thud you know, we fear the worst because we do keep these windows nice and clean.
33:46Yeah, that's I think that's the part. I think this is a good excuse for you guys some chores. You want these birds to live? I can't be out here Windexing. This fucking they're gonna, they'll fly right into this thing daily if we don't, if we Yeah, that's not Windex.
33:58Jason Stewart:That's bird poison, basically. Okay, okay. Well, I didn't know. Okay, I didn't realize. So I will look at a bird. There have been birds that will set up nests in our little patio area where it has the little outdoor roof enclosure kind of thing, and we have a hanging plant, and birds will build their nest in there to hide their little baby eggs from the squirrels or coyotes or whatever, and we let him rock. I saw there's a new dove who's building a bird's nest that's sitting... Okay, Prince. I know. They're not super popular over here, the doves. This is actually shocking that I brought this up as a joke and now it looks like you're in the market.
34:44I'll get Jeff to send you the Amazon link.
34:46Jason Stewart:No, no. I don't want it. I don't want it. Yeah, shopmy.com. We'll get Jeff shopmy link so that he can get a little kickback on this because the bird... bird seed ain't cheap and yeah and the kind of bird seed that i'm gonna get of course is gonna be some like fucking fair trade shit that i have to order from vermont yeah you have to get it it's gonna come in dry ice it's gonna my bird seed can grade my car because of the how much i'm spending my bird seed came in dry ice so fucking funny uh it's some new shit i maybe you're not up on it yet but yeah my bird seed came in dry ice it's super it's very perishable um just i just want to make sure my guys hit all their macros this week but yeah there's a new a dove is building a new nest that's kind of like on top of uh the little circuit breaker box on the outside of our house on the other side so i think the birds are flying flying around just a couple days ago i was watering some plants as the sun was going down and it was kind of misty misty water in the air and a butterfly flew over oh my god and the butterfly started spinning in circles in in the middle of my driveway and I'm spraying the hose into the air and you know the butterfly it was really having the time of his life it's like when you're when you're out in the in the farm and it's a hot day and you start pouring spraying water on the hogs and they just you know start rolling around in the water because they're so hot same kind of thing but with the butterfly but if I get one of those bird feeders sounds like an Addison Rae video bro you gotta chill you gotta I'm like a bird.
36:18Jason Stewart:Video, head ass activities, Madonna, ray of light, buffer five-year-olds activities going on. All our RIP William Moore, but of course, I'll play a little song at the end of the episode. But if I get one of those Bluetooth webcam bird feeders with AI technology to identify the red-throated squarble and then the AI automatically orders new bird seed when the sensor picks up that I'm running low. At that point, it's like having a self-driving Tesla or something. This is what I'm saying. I think you could choose to opt in or out of all of these sort of bells and whistles that take the human touch out of it.
37:00Jason Stewart:You want me to brick my bird feeder? I'm just saying I think you want the photos to catalog which birds are visiting your feeder. But I think that the rest of that stuff, your Chewy.com fucking seed subscription could be turned off. You know what I mean? I can unsubscribe to that in the user settings. If you just go to the hamburger, click on that, and then go down, you'll be good to go. You can unsubscribe. Well, you have to register at first online, and then once you create your account... Yeah, you'll be fine. Just create an account. You have to put in your credit card, but we won't charge you until the first shipment of Birdseed arrives.
37:35I'm sorry, but that password is just not strong enough. If you could just try again, that'd be better for us.
37:41Jason Stewart:That password for this bird feeder is not strong enough. Okay, question. What is worse? Like, what dick gets sucked less? You know, bird feeder with the camera and the sensor technology or the bird feeder where it's a helmet that goes on the... Have you seen this? It looks like a plastic welding mask with two hummingbird feeders and you just sit there silently without moving and then the birds come and land on you and then you're just looking at the birds? No, that's way crazier. That's way crazier. That's way crazier. You really got time on your hands. Yeah, yeah. Providing food and water for birds is pretty, that's good.
38:24You know, overall, that's good. When you make it about you, that becomes a different thing. Providing food and water for birds? I'll go on record in saying that's good. Well, I'm saying the food and water is out there for them wherever they want it, in theory. But having a centralized place that's comfortable and and you know a surveillance state is better is what you know i think that's better everyone can agree making it easier is a nice thing to do but with all that stuff you know it's there's a
38:49Jason Stewart:lot of cautionary tales out there it's such a slippery slope and then you know six months later they're gonna be like oh yeah jason he uh he's really spending a lot of time at this wolf reserve preservation thing and he's driving out you know or like you know when he like yeah he's thinking about getting a like a small cat yeah like oh jason got a bobcat or yeah it goes it can go i think there's a level of pet ownership that makes you weird and i'm not talking about having a cute dog you know what i mean or a cat i'm talking about you're like when you if you go to you go to somebody's house on a couch they got a snake you know or when a when a freaky chick has a rat or a ferret you know what i mean it's just it's disgusting having a parrot in your house it's all gross.
39:34I think the beauty of the bird feeder is...
39:35Jason Stewart:Chloe Wise, turn this episode off now. Oh, I know Chloe Wise got a pet rat crawling around her little fucking studio. But yeah, I think that there's just a level to pet ownership and respect of animals that is normal, and then there's a line you can cross, and it feels very, very dark to me. Which is why I'm afraid of getting that bird feeder. But maybe when I'm 70... Well, it seems like the perfect crime... I will have somebody get that for me. It feels like the perfect crime because it feels like you can participate as much. As long as you put food in there, you can check it out when you want to, but it's not like Bean where you got to take them.
40:11You know what I mean? It's not a lot of responsibility. That's a good point.
40:14Jason Stewart:Yeah, but if I don't enable push notifications, then what's the point of even owning it? I mean, that's what I say about everything. If I don't allow push notifications. At that point, I'm Pia with the baby monitor. You know what I mean? I'm not able to do two things without looking at that iPhone. I ain't got time to check all that out. They always want me to start push notifications because I refresh Twitter so much. I'm like, bro, I don't want the notification. Yeah, Jeff, you're already looking at the baby cam enough. We don't need bird cam too. I think the bird cam, I was fascinated. What's going to be the next cam?
40:43Jason Stewart:Baby cam? Bird cam? There's going to be a new cam soon that people are really into. Well, I mean, I guess if you're near the beach, it's the wave cam. Well, I guess, I mean, official ones. Obviously, toilet cam's big. Sure. Well, I know that your go-to cam is toilet. But I think that, what do they call it? Is it called Surf Watch? Is that what everybody watches? Yeah. Or maybe, I think some of these like yogurt places are setting up cameras so you can see how long the line is. That's not a joke. Surf Line. It's called Surf Line. Surf Line. Yeah, yeah, okay. And it looks cool because it's like black and white.
41:16It's kind of shitty, at least when I've seen it.
41:18Jason Stewart:Yeah, right now, Jax is two to three. And Capitola is one to two. Shit, bro. Okay, fuck. All right. That changes my day, but okay. Thanks for telling me. actually all right so i i watched on the when i got back i kept seeing all this stuff charlie xcx joins the strokes for take it or leave it and i'm like oh i love take it or leave it i gotta say she fucking she sounded so good she sounded so much better than him that he had to he had to make a joke about her selling more records than the strokes which i i appreciate the sense of humor from julie you know when we saw the strokes play at coachella right before bieber all he could talk about when it wasn't israel was the fact that justin bieber was his big pop star and he was playing with them and basically like self-deprecating like we're opening for justin bieber lol kind of vibe and now he's doing it again with charlie i think he's really having a they're a festival band now so you know life is different when you're a festival band right definitely i think that's i mean what else could they be you know what i mean i think that's like that's best case scenario i mean they could go they just did a tour with like hamilton opening for them and they were playing like a couple nights at red rocks and shit it's pretty good that sounds fun to me yeah i mean i just think festivals festivals are a different beast i mean it's like you look at these lineups and it is kind of crazy like it's basically stella lefty and noah cahan over everyone so it's a little bit we need to talk about this because Because it feels like the Stella Lefty song that everybody is calling a psyop because her dad's rich, it sounds just like the Noah Cahan song.
42:59But it's a girl. And it's a smash. I mean, there's no question about that. But it's like the most, like what's going on? We can't let Boston kind of have this. You know what I mean? Like that's not, we can't glorify. I got to listen to this song one second.
43:29She just looks like a, she literally looks like a chick that works at Brandy Melville. There's nothing remarkable about her in a way that I think is good and relatable.
43:38Jason Stewart:She's East Coast Audrey Hobart. Quirked up. East Coast Audrey Hobart. Yeah, but no fun, no swag. That's the problem. that's the problem okay i need to listen to this music it's huge it's huge and it's people are mad because their dad's rich but she always is like okay dude like that's i don't know that's not that doesn't change the merit of the of the music for me it's it's a hit and it's annoying and both things can be true yeah so who's listening to this it's just kids i guess uh i think it's i think it's literally like a billboard number one i i need to look that up no i think it is i think it I think it's like a runaway smash.
44:14I think it's like a radio, you know, Sirius XM, like TikTok. I think all of the reasons a song works are conspiring to make this a hit.
44:23Jason Stewart:I pulled up the lyrics. I like it when you're nice. Like it when you're nice to me. Well, I mean, who can't agree with that, Jason? That's a relatable, that is a relatable line. I mean, it may be a little, it may be a little childish, but I'm not going to say it's not relatable. Look, it's for when you're meeting a guy and then I'm so, like random that I'm probably going to mess it up but like I really like you like you're different than the other guys it's yeah maybe Stella Lefty she's kind of like the musical version of the character that Delaney Rowe has created on her reels maybe I don't know I actually I actually kind of think that I that is which is a great sweet spot good money maker you know they look similar her real last name is her real last name is Lefkowski I know it has a real Ellis Island feel to it now Oh, my name is Stella Lefty-Mawit, Leftobronowitz.
45:16Jason Stewart:Let's go with Lefty.

But let's see who her dad is because people are so mad. Her dad is billionaire entrepreneur Eric Lefelski who founded Groupon.
47:43Let's go. Okay. All right, shit. That's a real business though, guys. Don't be mad at this guy. I mean, now he is working in AI, but that's not, I mean, I don't, his money is from Groupon.
47:54Jason Stewart:Yeah, Groupon ain't what it used to be. I wouldn't necessarily call it nepotism. No, I think that if, I bet Eric cashed out when the getting was good and sitting on, you know. I mean, they say he's literally a billionaire. So I would, if that is all from Groupon, I would be surprised. I'm sure he made some sound investments as well. He's got a nice house on the shore. He's able to afford the American Eagle Outfitters clothing for Stella. No problem. them get the studio time booked it's all yeah no problem at all do you like it more than uh than the texas song no the texas song is a generational smash i love the texas song okay so in the rule of threes we've got we've got the texas this one is boston is there going to be a seattle song now well no i think we have ran to atlanta from from drake and future that's the that's the that's the level of buzzing.
48:47No, I know. Maybe there's going to be a soccer mommy song about Seattle. Anything could happen.
48:52Jason Stewart:No, but it has to be a person that comes out of nowhere. It can't be somebody that we've already been rocking with forever. It has to be a new... Ella Langley, Stella Lefty. There is... And now the third person needs to be called something something. Two words. You're right. Two syllables. Well, all names are two words. Ella Stella Lefty Langley. Her name's Ella Langley, right? Ella Langley, choosing Texas. Stella Lefty Boston. You see something's going on here. Dude, there is something going on here. Shit. I hate when a TJ conspiracy comes true, but... And this one came together improvised in real time, just to be clear.
49:33Is there a world where the Pacific Northwest is represented in the same way that Texas and Boston are? Is that possible? I mean, is it possible? Could someone beast from Portland?
49:45Jason Stewart:Triangulate. Yeah, Portland. Seattle. Vancouver. I mean, yeah, we could have a north of the border, yeah. He's from Coover. I could tell by the Tevas he wears. I could tell by the sack he hacks. I could tell by the needle in his arm. Yeah, there's so many ways you could go. Yeah, he's from British Columbia. I could tell by the way he just asked me for a change at the train station. What's the thing? What's the thing? sorry I don't have any change what's the thing people say got no change brother no cash tonight big fella sorry got no change brother really makes me laugh I think the first one was the Adrian Brody like hands in his pockets like doing his pose like sorry brother got no change brother somebody really famous singing yeah I wonder how many it's like Chris Martin from Coldplay like sorry Casper change brother not tonight that's it oh shit that really makes me laugh you want the rest of my spice bag or okay yeah when you you try to offer chris martin your left your half your subway sandwich he says no where's it from uh no uh that's one of my favorite things is when people think they're being nice and and the the unhoused is like bro i don't want your fucking spaghetti get the fuck out here give me 10 bucks or nothing i respect it i respect it i ain't got time for your leftovers sometimes those leftovers do be hitting yeah there's there's a good there's a classic curby enthusiasm where he gives his his driver his leftover sushi and he's like what now chopsticks see that's what i'm saying there's always there's always a danger of a rejection for a different reason you know that's why i give him cash but now even now in a cashless society like what am i supposed to do with this 20 what am i going to do with this five dollar bill i mean you can still buy alcohol and drugs with cash barely the liquor store is going to take a liquor store don't want your venmo how much longer though you know i i honestly i think about that a lot like how much because i pay cash for at this point tipping haircut and pedicure those are the three things i actually use cash for on like a normal basis tipping haircut pedicure but otherwise i i really don't otherwise you could tell that you're from new york the way you tap to pay yeah i mean i guess like do you pay cash you pay like a dog like a do you pay cash for stuff like that yeah i pay beans dog sitter in cash and when i have cash i'll pay my barber yeah he he appreciates it you know barber's always down to have cash in the pocket but he i'm sure 99 90 is venmo i'll still get a cab driver i'll get a cab driver every once in a while who gives me attitude when i pay with a card and i'm like dude trust me i would love to pay you cash but you can't sorry we can't act like this anymore unfortunately i ain't the one that was just like we've as as much as i want to battle against it this is where we are so this is what we got to deal with credit card it's already here it's happening sorry sorry taxi bros it's already happening it's already happening i wish there was a better way that's why we use square yeah that's right i love square i love square i use square all the time i i also love square isn't that something fucked up i use square so much shout out to all of um all of our icons out there cats i lost another member it's getting tough out there they are they are they down are they down is cats i down too yeah we're down too all right jason this is your time to pounce bts has 14 motherfuckers in it bts uh cats i got four this is your this is your time jason they're hurting you know what i mean they're down they're back at their parents house broken wing bird it's time for tj to swoop in a second change your life Move.
53:26Jason Stewart:I'll go to Umberto. Move. I don't. Six, seven, eight. But Cat's Eye, they're not from, they're American, so they're not enslaved by some label. They can just do that. No, they're on the BTS record label. Oh, they are. The ones who are known for enslavering. Okay, so they're fucked. So these women are going to die. Yeah, they're all being driven to something. So what does that mean? Do you think that's better? That now the other four are like, hell yeah, we just get to split it and we sounded bad anyway? That's a good question. If somebody leaves the band, is that money split up evenly? Do the girls get more money?
54:09Jason Stewart:I'm sure Hybe is not going to pay them more money. No, that's true. But I wonder if they get replaced or not. We need that in a clause for our future deals. Yeah, that would be much preferred, I would imagine, if it were them. Yeah, this cat's eye clause. Get it? Yeah, I got it. Yeah, if you can't hack it in Cat's Eye, then we get your 15 % or whatever. I didn't, I mean, which one? Now, is there, you know, like in Backstreet Boys, NSYNC? I don't know which one. But I'm saying there was always like, you know, whatever, in NSYNC, it was clear that Justin Timberlake was a star. I would assume neither one of these people that have left Cat's Eye were the star.
54:46Jason Stewart:I don't know, actually. I don't know if they have a star. Well, Jason, they all have a star. I don't know. Really? Yeah. I mean, this is a good thing that I don't know. Well, I think you're lying, but yeah, I agree. That's a good thing. But I guess there is, but I don't know if, yeah, yeah. Like, I don't know if Jenny is known for her singing. But she's the baddest. She seems to be the leader of the group. I mean, you know, I think it's a 50-50 Lisa Jenny. Okay. Other ones, you know, they're getting the scraps. Yeah, yeah. That makes sense. Well, I'm praying for all of our Cat's Eye fans and members.
55:20Just, you know, hopefully they can return to God's light.
55:24Jason Stewart:She from Pyeonggang. I could tell, by the way, she knows her choreo.
55:32Dude, I really think, Choos in Texas, I think, broke a record recently for longest number one running song by a woman. I'm not exaggerating.
55:42Jason Stewart:Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's crazy how big it is. I wonder who was in second place. I'm sure it's Beyonce, I would guess. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Taylor. Maybe Gaga. I finally watched that movie, Obsession. I don't know what that is. It's one of those low budget. Oh, it's not back rooms. It's the other one? It's the other one. Yeah, yeah. It made like half a billion dollars. Yes, yes. It was like a$2 million budget or whatever. Was it good? No, I don't think so. I mean, it's a horror movie where a guy is crushing a girl and then buys a toy at a magic shop and he grants him a wish and his wish is that the girl likes him back and then the girl ends up liking him too much.
56:21Jason Stewart:Who hasn't been there? Am I right? But there's just so much. I guess horror movies are different now, obviously. But the jump scare of audio is like a real thing I'm noticing where it used to be the jump scare would be like a crazy monster comes out from, you know, around the corner and it shocks you. but now it'll be like a calm scene and everything's super calm but then you just hear of super loud you know nine inch nails type of sound like boom oh but it's so loud because they're mixing everything so weird so it's it's a common complaint with with films nowadays of just everyone it's just low lighting and everyone whispers and then when there's music playing or if there's like a loud sound effect it's like 50 times louder so you're always turning the volume up and down and it's more annoying than this is why I don't have my jump scares fun this is why I don't have my soundbar hooked up bro this is exactly why this is why yeah you can't handle the soundbar and there's also like a sort of a rape scene I guess but there's just so much scream crying the girl Indie Navarette oh yeah the hot one that everybody that's like controversial for some reason I'm not sure exactly what she did wrong I don't know if she's controversial I know she's short and she likes illegal graffiti so you know cool with me but half the film she's screaming and crying and i'm just like will somebody just yeah jason you ain't with yeah you ain't with that you're in your in your relationships with women you're usually the one screaming and crying so i understand why this would my you already know my silent passive aggressive ass just gonna sit there and let you punch yourself out are you finished are you finished if you'll listen if you'll calm down I will finish this conversation If you want to calm down I'll talk to you otherwise If you'll talk to me like a human being Instead of yelling at me I've been watching I watched that I watched a couple episodes of The Shard I've heard it's unwatchable And I don't usually say that That's usually your line But I haven't dipped my toe Try this on Versailles I didn't think it was that bad You're the only person I've heard say that but I also believe you.
58:41Jason Stewart:I know. Well, the downsides of it are like, you know, it's basically like you're watching Riverdale or like, yeah, yeah, yeah. It just looks like a TV show for 13 year olds to watch. So it's like Riverdale. If it was like narrated by Breddy Sinellis. So who plays the mom? I was talking about this yesterday. It's someone cool. Kind of. It's someone who's like not that old, but is, is cool. Evan Rachel would. Yeah, that's cool. Plays the mom. Debbie's mom. that's cool who's who's the pill popper and then my dog wes bentley plays that's who that's shaffer yeah that's who it is who i became friends with from we are your friends with zach efron he was the older wise dj who takes zach efron under his wing so he was playing he was playing the real tj a character based on them genes basically yeah he was dating uh emily radikowski and then teaching young djs about you know playing music with soul man that i mean look bro this right here this is called an analog synthesizer this right here uh um yeah we would yeah wes and i we would uh we would have lunch and smoke six together it was good guy but he's he's blowing up good for him uh but the the shark the shark i mean like is it amazing no would it be better if ryan murphy didn't do it yes of course but the bar for quality television is so shit low that i will take riverdale narrated by bready sinelis it's fine yeah what i what i wish would happen is we keep this as a tv show because it is a it's a story that's going to work as a kids yeah as a teen drama like euphoria style yeah yeah yeah i would also love to see a proper movie made out of this with well they that ain't how that works they they i know i mean obviously the rights and everything like that but like what if there was a cool clause where in 20 years yeah they let paul thomas anderson finally do the movie version of the shards or if john carpenter did it like somebody who has the the real sense of that 80s los angeles yeah yeah you know for sure i mean it would make a great film that's see jason this is exactly why i watch bravo you know because it's just there's no they ain't they gonna make stassi's new show delivery low expectations exactly exactly it's like there's not there's nothing they can do um all right how long gone thank you for listening jason thank you for podcasting me thank you i think that's it yeah i think that's it right yeah that's it we covered all the bases i'm getting excited for i'm getting excited for just like heaven that's happening fast i forgot that i forgot that feist is playing.
1:01:17This is, you know, I've seen Feist once in my life.
1:01:21Jason Stewart:Imagine if Casablanca brings Feist out to do, you know, Montreal City Cops. Oh my gosh. Montreal? Quebec Quoi Cops? Oh my goodness. We need somebody to record Quebec Quoi Cops. That unfortunately would be our... Calgary City Cops. Unfortunately, it would have to be Arcade Fire and they're not really, you know, they're not really in vogue right now.
