Matt, Brendan, and Heron discuss the upcoming presidential election between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump in a satirical manner. They joke about controversial campaign ads promising violence, celebrity
endorsements, and the candidates' physical appearances. The conversation also touches on crime rates in different parts of the country and makes crude
references to bodily functions. Overall, the segment pokes fun at the intense polarization and sensationalism surrounding the election.
They discussed the upcoming US election, focusing on the sexual undertones and controversies surrounding the candidates. They humorously speculated about potential shapeshifting abilities of Kamala Harris and the involvement of Donald Trump in a "piss tape"
scandal. They also discussed the unreliability of polls, particularly in Iowa, and the potential for a coup within the Democratic party. The conversation was
light-hearted and filled with jokes, but also touched on serious issues like the election's outcome and the candidates' controversies.
They joke about topics like the "lizard people"
theory, cosmic turtles being the origin of all life, connections between turtles, pizza, and political figures like Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. The conversation is lighthearted and absurd, making satirical links between
disparate ideas in an amusing way.
Waspy Soda Pop's Mysterious Disappearance is narrated. It is an elaborate fictional story about the disappearance of a culinary figure named Waspy Soda Pop while
pursuing a rare ingredient for a special mayonnaise recipe. The story involves Waspy collecting bizarre ingredients from around the world, potentially being
mistaken for a demon by a cannibalistic tribe in New Guinea, and going missing.
Heron and Brendan engage with the story, speculating about its connections to conspiracy theories and secret societies. The conversation also touches on Matt's frustration with his speech difficulties.
They continue and jokingly suggest that the "cow vote" is crucial, especially in certain regions they dub "cow country." Brendan draws a map on a whiteboard, eliminating areas like the West Coast and the South as irrelevant to the "cow vote." They ponder which candidates appeal to cow voters with Matt suggesting alfalfa farmers could sway them. Heron notes Trump's
stint at McDonald's could alienate cows, while Brendan sees Kamala Harris' Indian heritage making her cow-friendly. The conversation is lighthearted and
absurd, using cows as a humorous metaphor to analyze the election dynamics.
In the meeting, Matt and Brendan discussed the idea of
creating a podcast commentary track of old episodes, which they agreed needed more work. They also discussed the concept of a "big turtle" holding
up the world, which was humorously linked to the issue of sea turtles. The conversation then shifted to a legal question about a candidate claiming election by a secret society of cats, which Heron humorously responded to,
leading to a discussion about the slippery slope of species elections.
Heron predicts Harris will win with 55-60% of the electoral vote and a slightly narrower popular vote margin. Brendan thinks Trump will win, not because he
supports him, but because he sees Trump's unconventional approach as an advantage in marketing. Matt believes Harris will win in a landslide unless
Republicans cheat, which he thinks is their only path to victory. The conversation then takes an odd turn to discussing the alleged killing of a squirrel named
Peanut by authorities, which Brendan sees as symbolic of government overreach.
They then discuss the possibility of doing
another podcast episode in the future. Matt shares several satirical political ads he created, poking fun at the candidates and third parties. They joke about
voting and the election results. Brendan talks about his experience creating video ads and using AI voices. Overall, it's a casual conversation reflecting
on the podcast and creative process.
