Um, and I think, yeah, I mean maybe for very different ...
Kate ShawHOST

It's like the Supreme Court's sort of very low approval ratings right now, and, um, I talked to Jamelle Bouie about this.
Kate ShawHOST
37:20
You know, a lot of it is liberals were really unhappy, and I think rightly so with the Court, but then there's also this conservative contingent that is mad the Court hasn't been more MAGA.

Thanks so much to all of you for being here.
Luke BurbankHOST
30:52
I heard ...
Luke BurbankHOST
30:53
Man, um, Jamelle Bouie had, I thought ...
Luke BurbankHOST
30:55
I'm sorry I'm all over the map today, but Jamelle Bouie had, I thought, such an interesting, trenchant kind of take on Trump recently which is ...
Luke BurbankHOST
31:03
And I don't think that this is something that people haven't thought, but I hadn't thought- heard it described exactly this way, which is that Trump is clearly absolutely terrified of death.
Astra TaylorGUEST
13:15
Like Naomi was saying, "Hey, something's happening over there," and now they are some of the most powerful people who have ever existed in the history of humanity.
Adam ConoverHOST
13:23
Why do you think we have so much trouble as a culture or, you know, as a media grappling with th- this crazy perspective these folks have? I mean, a, a couple of weeks ago, there were, there were a couple pieces, I think Jamelle Bouie was like writing in the New York Times or maybe just in his own channels, about how, you know, Elon Musk is like a, a, a horrible gutter racist, you know.
Adam ConoverHOST
13:46
That he's [chuckles]...
Adam ConoverHOST
13:47
That, that he's just posting, you know, uh, the, the most virulent kind of racist, like stuff out of the '40s, you know, um, on a daily basis.
Amanda MarcotteGUEST
2:59
So he'll only pick on somebody smaller and only if it's an easy fight.
Amanda MarcotteGUEST
3:04
Uh, uh, Jamelle Bouie is often pointing out it's a rapist mentality, and I'll just say a civil court has found that E. Jean Carroll was telling the truth about Trump, so, um, yeah.
Amanda MarcotteGUEST
3:15
But I, I think that there is kind of a hope there that being a loud, threatening, scary monster is going to be the same thing as actually following through, um, but he's never had any follow-through.
Amanda MarcotteGUEST
3:27
Trump has always lived his life as if the illusion is the thing.
Caitlin BaileyHOST
39:52
Of course we can.
Mark BigneyHOST
39:53
Are you familiar with a journalist who works for The New York Times, whose name is Jamelle Bouie?
Caitlin BaileyHOST
39:58
No.
Mark BigneyHOST
39:59
I was familiar with Jamelle Bouie because he's been on a lot of podcasts and shows, and things, and I've read a couple of his columns, but I don't tend to read The New York Times much.
Mark BigneyHOST
40:06
And I saw that he has a YouTube channel called Takes where he just records like five to 10-minute videos most days.
Mark BigneyHOST
40:14
And he also did a live stream-
Mark BigneyHOST
40:25
So one of my favorite political comment- commenters was playing Fire Emblem while he was talking about American politics.
Caitlin BaileyHOST
40:31
Yeah.
Brendan AgnewHOST
15:58
if, if I had been watching a movie from the 1940s back in like, you know, 1995, 1996 and being like, "Oh, well everything's exactly the same." [laughs]
Brendan FoleyHOST
16:06
Well, it's like Jamelle Bouie, the great, uh, you know, New York Times columnist and kind of cultural commentator, he, he watched The Apartment for the first time, and The Apartment's one of the best movies ever made by anybody ever.
Brendan FoleyHOST
16:17
And the f- the only [laughs] problem with The Apartment is that movie is almost a century old.
Brendan FoleyHOST
16:23
I mean, it's like came out what 1950 I believe, around that-
Michael LiroffHOST
38:16
Yeah.
Rhiannon HamamHOST
38:16
No, but the funniest one, of course, and I'm really glad this quote was included, Jamelle Bouie, friend of the pod, said it should be taken out by drones.
Rhiannon HamamHOST
38:23
[laughs]
Michael LiroffHOST
38:24
Hell yes.
