So are we supposed to start the podcast? Ready?
Josh
1, 2, 3.
Jennifer
Patriots gaytriots. They trots Blacktriots Fuck off. That's right. Trump's America, baby.
Josh
Gotta do the caca the fuck off. Gotta take all the lips where you can get em.
Jennifer
This is Asshole Island, America's top DEI podcast and we will be the final resistance if it kills us.
Josh
Yeah, we will continue to be the head beavers in charge to the end.
Jennifer
Pumps. What have you had it with?
Josh
Okay, what I've had it with is when you buy a sports bra that has padding in it and then you wash it and the pad comes out and you have to replace the padding and you can never get it quite right. Why don't they just sew the pads in the bra? Why am I chasing through my washing machine? These pads, I feel like it ruins everything. So I went yesterday to buy bras that the pads don't come out. They don't exist. You're constantly it's like how hard is it? Sew the pad in.
Jennifer
Let me ask you this and I have experienced that exact same thing. I know exactly what we're talking about. But considering that you have large breasts and nipples, is that why you wear the pad?
Josh
Yeah, the sticky, outy Big Chief Nipples. In fact, I saw one of my high school friends the other night and he was. Because they used to call him the Big Chief Nipples in high school, because those big pencils. And he was like, how are the big chiefs? I was like, they're still out.
Jennifer
Why don't you just wear, like a nipple cover and then just get rid of the pads altogether?
Josh
It's a great idea. Here's the problem with it. If I just wear the nipple cover, like, the gravity, it sinks the boobs down.
Jennifer
You've got more sag and dragons.
Josh
I've got more sag in my drag than a nipple cover can combat with.
Jennifer
These are big problems in Trump's America.
Josh
These are huge problems in Trump's America.
Jennifer
All right, let me tell you what I've had it with. I've had it when you're involved in a group text and you don't really want to be in the group text, but you have to be in it. And the one that I'm talking about is I have a senior in high school and it's the parent senior group text. And I've had it when people ask the group a question that should be asked to Google. And let me give you an example. About four or five days ago, a woman asked the group. And I'm talking, you know, there's probably 90, 100 people in this. Does anybody have any tips on how to get the wrinkles out of the graduation gown? No, no, I'm dead serious. I look at that and I just think, what's the psychology behind this? She knows that there's Google is, are we wanting to have a conversation with this many people? Because that's my worst nightmare. And number two, are you trying to let everyone know that you don't have conflict resolution skills? Conflict wrinkles and gown resolution. Hit the Google, get an iron. Get a steamer. And so I've had it with that. And this happens a lot. People asking group messages or individuals and things that could be Googled. But the group text fuckery gets even worse. So last night they had the senior awards ceremony, right? And so one of the moms goes into the group, me, and she's like, I just want everybody to know that there had been some rumors that the kids would be informed if they were receiving an award and some of the parents weren't going to come. Well, that's not true that the awards are going to be a Surprise. And so then like there's this conversation going on back and forth about it. And just here's my overall thing about this. It's just not your business, right? Like if you're a mom and you don't work at the school and you're not an employee of the school and we're dealing with 18 to 19 year olds and then also all of the parents are grown ass adults. Everybody has agency to figure out on their own about this award ceremony. It's just the meddling and the micromanaging that goes on in these parent group me's. It is such a cancer. It really is. It ruins what should be like joyful activities with your children as they cross this milestone. Looking around, seeing all these busy bodies and it just grates on my nerves. And secondly, I think that this generation has got to be the most celebrated generation ever. You know how like our grandparents generation was the greatest generation. This generation will be the most celebrated generation.
Josh
Right? Well all these to start with. I had a senior last year. The, I mean the awards. Why do we have so many awards? It's ridiculous. I don't think we need it. I mean we've had participation trophies from jump with all these activities, I mean the award ceremonies, the things like the events that involve parents. For a senior in high school, it blows my mind. Like when I graduated my parents went to the graduation. That was it. Now we have 47 different, you know, little events that we have to go to that the parents are involved in. I'm like, why are the parents this involved?
Jennifer
I had to go yesterday to a slideshow at 1:00 clock at the school that the students put together a slideshow and, and here's the problem with it. They send it out and they put an asterisk by the parts that the parents can be involved in. Well if I don't show up, then I'm the fucking asshole. That's right, mom that doesn't show up. But all of this is done by all of these parents who just have to be involved in everything. And a part of being a senior is you're starting to teach your kids autonomy. The slideshow should be for the seniors, right? I'm not a senior, I don't go to school. It felt awkward leaving the office in the middle of the day, driving to the school, school, sitting down with other parents, watching the slideshow and it's just, it's too much. This power mom culture is creating the biggest generation of titty babies. And you can start to see the results trickle out Gen Z, anxiety out the wazoo. I wonder why. Because nobody ever taught them how to be autonomous, how to govern themselves. And it's then interacting with these parents and how dramatic they are about everything. It's just the drama surrounding raising kids right now. Like it's this new novel thing. It's just like we're not the first people that have done this. What we are are the first people that have made it this big of a fucking deal, right? That's what we are. We are the people who have acted like and feigned that. We discovered breeding, right? And in fact we didn't.
Josh
Well, it's like the greatest generation, the biggest generation of titty babies. And then I want to swing back to the point you made about this other mother saying, well, that's not true. Da da da. Mind your own fucking business. If I don't want to go to the awards, if I don't want to go to the film, that is my right. You don't need to get on and tell me that. What I should and shouldn't do. Like, why do you care? Why do you care?
Jennifer
That's what I was thinking. Like, why if you need to know information, contact somebody at the school. But these moms asking how to iron a gown and then monitoring who going to an award ceremony and whose kids are getting awards and whose kids aren't getting awards and who was notified about the awards. Get a life, right? Get a life. Like seriously, all of that hyper fixation harms you. The person who's being that codependent super duper harms your child. And I'm never going to get that time back. I'm damaged from all of these interactions. I leave the group me damaged. I leave a little bit of me that believed in a little bit of humanity in that group message. And I cannot wait until graduation and it happens in a week or two where it will say, Jennifer Welch has left this group group message because it will be the second after the graduation.
Josh
Oh yeah. I remember when I left all the group me and it was, it was glorious. It felt liberating.
Jennifer
All right, welcome to I've had it. I'm Jennifer.
Josh
I'm Angie. Hbic had beaver in charge.
Jennifer
We have two mascots, the eagle and the beaver. Although we're really leaning heavily into the beaver ever, we found out that it is the national animal of Canada. And unlike maga, we like Canada. Yeah, a lot. We, we like you guys a lot. And we don't like bullies either. Especially thin skinned, whining, whinging, titty baby bullies. Let me just throw this in before I kick it to Kylie.
Josh
Okay?
Jennifer
I've had it with the constant non stop whining and complaining from maga. Yeah. I have never in my life seen bigger whiners. The made is black Donald Trump. It's a witch hunt against him. People are mean about Teslas. Trans people shouldn't have rights. I mean, just shut the up and quit whining for sake. But I guess they like it. It's a community of whiners. Which is why I am a proud resident and co leader of Asshole Island. Because on this island, if we're going to, it's going to be productive.
Josh
Well, absolutely. And here's another thing. Do you ever get tired of playing the role of victim? That everybody's out to get you, that it's a witch hunt, the judges are against you. Why is no one seen? Like, did no one's parent ever tell them, if you're mad at everybody and you think everybody is against you, it's probably you? I remember that so clearly coming home, like in middle school and all the little girls were mad at me in my friend group and I was like, so and so's mad at me. So and so's mad at me. So and so is mad at me. My mom goes, if everybody's mad at you in your friend group, that tells me it's you. Like, you're the problem.
Jennifer
Yeah.
Josh
None of these people have ever considered, like, look inward, maybe I can do better. It's just gross. And the whining from all the alpha males, it's just more than I can take. More than I could take.
Jennifer
Yeah. And here's one more thing too. At the award ceremony, I noticed that when the teachers were giving the awards for certain subjects, they spoke a lot about critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, a desire to learn, a desire to get to the truth, all of these things. Right. And by Geography listener, I can assume that a lot of the parents in the office, I mean in the audience, were probably trumpers. And I'm sitting there thinking as all of these teachers are coming out, talking about critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, you know, relentless pursuit of the truth and of facts and being open minded and open to different points of view and welcoming, you know, adverse reactions and adverse points of view as being these strong character strengths. And I'm sitting there as each teacher said something to that vein. And there were 36 awards given out. I did that. Josh and I did the time on it 36 times, three to five. We were there for two hours. Okay. Nonetheless, every teacher had this same kind of message. And I'm looking around and I know for sure there's this. This one family, and the grandparents are there, and they are Trimple, Trumper, dump, megachurch, the whole nine. I know it because she's shown me pictures of, like, her wearing a Trump hat and all this crazy shit. Well, anyway, I'm sitting there thinking, okay, they watch Fox News all the time and they hear all this. People are getting indoctrinated at schools and higher education is the problem. That's what's corrupting all of our kids. And I guess when they hear all of this stuff from the teachers, they don't connect it to their kids. They just think these other kids shouldn't have that type of education, but their kids can. And so I think we're going to hit a really big conflict. We're hitting it now, but of the people that want to learn and the people that want to objectively learn and that really want to be truth seekers and don't fall prey to propaganda and indoctrination. So we're going to have the battle of the curious versus the dipshits. It's coming. I mean, I think we're having it right now. And so I just thought it was just interesting. And I was kind of glad that some of those people had to hear those things being said. And I wonder if any of them thought, well, this seems kind of woke.
Josh
Okay, I was just gonna say, when you're thinking that, like, I applaud you, that you're thinking, you know what, what is their take on this? They're hearing this. Are they applying it there? It. It is like two separate worlds over their head type situation.
Jennifer
You told me your family members who were triple Trumpers, you had a cousin that went to an Ivy League school and then she became a Democrat and they blamed the Ivy League school for it. Right.
Josh
But I'm saying in that moment, they are thinking, we are different, we are special, we know the truth because we follow the megachurch proclamations. So they're. It. It's an inability to apply intellectual curiosity and critical thinking as, you know, completely polar opposite of what they believe. They don't see that. They're counterintuitive. They just don't.
Jennifer
So you're telling me when they hear the language spoken by these teachers of all of these things, like critical thinking and objective truths and all of these things from a teacher, they. They think that's a good thing, but when they hear Fox News say the same thing, they identify it as bad.
Josh
Well, no, I'm saying that they think they have all those things. They think they are critical thinkers. They think they're. They are getting to the truth. Like they are. You know, they know all the truth because they believe in the Bible. They don't. I mean, they're curious because they're stopping the deep state. Like they don't see that they are at the app, you know, polar opposite of what you're talking about. They think they've got it. They think they've got all the answers.
Jennifer
That's terrifying. Okay, Kylie, wait, do I say welcome to I've had it. Have we done that yet? Yeah, yeah, we did that. Okay. Sorry, listeners. Kylie.
Katie Ann
Yes. I've got some reviews for you today.
Jennifer
Okay.
Katie Ann
This first one is three stars titled Sometimes average, sometimes funny. And they write. Jennifer and Angie are Eat, Sleep, breathe. Trump obsessed. They think about him all day and night. The Republican party lives rent free in this podcast. I don't understand the obsession. Jennifer claims to be middle of the road.
Jennifer
What the.
Josh
I'm just gonna say that's really gonna.
Katie Ann
Get when it comes to politics. But she's so obsessed with Trump. There is nothing middle of the road about it. Typical white woman.
Jennifer
Okay.
Josh
This is almost as bad as being a centrist, maybe worse.
Jennifer
Jennifer claims to be middle of the road.
Josh
I have never, never claimed that.
Jennifer
Find the tape, Play the tape. To the contrary. I was accused of being a centrist. I talked about it. I'm a spiraled. They can spiral. They can call me ugly. All of these terrible things does not phase me. Bounces off like nobody's business. But being called a centrist lived rent free in my brain for a long time. So. So that the gay trio on our hot tour were constantly trolling me, buying me centrist T shirts. And I even saw after I had the epic takedown with Rahm Emanuel, okay, I saw on social media, the original person that called me a centrist commented on our Instagram and said, I retract my centrist comment. A retraction.
Josh
I love that.
Jennifer
And now we have new somebody's with me, right?
Josh
No, I think they're serious.
Jennifer
Do you think that. Do you think this is somebody with me?
Katie Ann
I think they're with you.
Jennifer
There's no way.
Katie Ann
There's no way. You listen to this podcast.
Jennifer
I think the three star and calling me middle of the road is. They wanted to trigger me and it worked. Hook, line, seeker.
Josh
Yeah, I did for it.
Jennifer
I fell for it. Hook, line, sinker.
Josh
We're going to go to lunch later and I'm going to hear about this. Just thank you so much.
Jennifer
Probably next, you know, next podcast Middle of the Road.
Josh
For anybody that thinks I'm middle of the road, I just want you to know right now I'm not middle of the road.
Jennifer

Katie Ann
Okay, we've got another one. This one is five stars titled make a Wish and they write. I just wanted to give a review and say it was such a great thing for Blessica to give Joshi this his Make a Wish day of being on the podcast after dealing with copd, mesothelioma and lead poisoning from his nut shaver. I was concerned that Meemaw fell down at the retirement home and we haven't been told yet but I will pray on this as I decorate my child's bed for getting into University of Titty Baby State College campus. This podcast gives me so much joy in a dark time, especially living in D.C. and fairly close to that man and his drag queen best friend. Special shout out to Katie Ann behind the mic keeping everything going. Love you all. Prayers for me Ma.
Josh
What a great review.
Jennifer
That's a really good review and I do, I mean, you know, with all of Josh's chronic illnesses that he was able to sub in for you while you were ill was excellent.
Josh
Yeah, it was a profile encourage on his part and Katie Ann is a new nickname for Kyle's. I like it.
Jennifer
I think Josh is having ear surgery. He told me.
Josh
Oh really?
Jennifer
Yeah, I think he's gotten a surgery out of this thing. The chronic ear wax problem I think has led to a surgery. I mean he just browbeats these people so long. He said it to me And I kind of was like in one ear, out the other.
Josh
Okay.
Jennifer
And then he brought it up again, like, my surgery is X date. I think it's like the end of May after all the kids stuff. And you know, here's the thing that's so bad about living with a hypochondriac. My default setting with a man who's ill is I'm more Nurse Ratched than Nurse Nightingale. But after so many faked illnesses and paranoia about illnesses, it depletes it even worse. And so he's going to get whatever it is done to his ears. I don't know if it's medically reduced. I haven't even asked a question. I've asked zero follow up questions regarding the surgery.
Josh
Like, okay.
Jennifer
I was just like, okay. So I, I, you know, I don't know, you might have to come over and take care of him.
Josh
I might better. I might have to drive him and pick him up. Here's the thing about that though. What's so, and I agree with you, you are, I mean, your default is Nurse Ratched.
Jennifer
Yeah.
Josh
But then you add the hypochondria and then now you add the ear surgery. So if it's something legitimately happened, I really do believe, like if he had something real bad, I think you would be a good nurse.
Jennifer
I would be the best nurse on the planet. There's no question. It's just all the faking. I'm just questioning is this. I don't have the details about the ear surgery. I just know that it started with earwax and then he also thought that he had a brain disorder. And we've had CAT scans and now we've settled on some sort of ear surgery. And so I'm just suspicious about the whole thing. Maybe we'll have him back on the pod post surgery. We'll do a little post surgical.
Josh
He'll be able to hear better.
Jennifer
You know, if he has a real problem, I would be a great nurse. Like, Roman was sick a couple weeks ago and I mean, I took great care of him and you know, checked his temperature, made sure he had all the medications and stuff that he needed. But I'm just a little fishy about this ear surgery.
Josh
Right. Because he went to the ENT like three days in a row about ear.
Jennifer
I think he might have gone to two different ents. I think you got, I think we're talking about a second opinion here. I think we did some doctor shopping. That's what I think. But again, I don't ask a lot of Questions. And that's for my protection. Right. That's for my serenity. That's self preservation for me. Because sometimes I've found when I ask more questions, you give them an inch, they take a mile.
Josh
Right.
Jennifer
And I don't want to talk about the minutiae of his ear problems. And to new listeners, you might think, God, she's, you know, that's cold. And the thing is, when you've sent your husband to rehab. How many times, listeners? Five. Five times. You've been to five family weeks. You just get to where you're just kind of like, here's the deal. You're you. I did the work that I had to do. And I kind of. The thesis sentence is, stay in my lane.
Josh
Right.
Jennifer
And. And you can stay in your lane. If you need me to pick you up from the ear surgery, I'll do that and I'll drop you off and then I'll go back to work.
Josh
And that's what it is.
Jennifer
Yep. Okay, Kylie, what's next? Is it me?
Katie Ann
It's your turn.
Jennifer
It's my turn. Okay. All right, this is. Welcome to I've Had It.
Josh
Oh, my God.
Jennifer
Welcome to I've Had It. I'm Angie the hbic. Okay, first news story today. Put this up. Chat GPT users are developing bizarre delusions, which Angie has been accusing this me of this. So that's why I chose this story. A Rolling Stone report highlights growing concerns that some users are falling into a state of chat at GPT induced psychosis. Reddit users are sharing alarming stories about loved ones becoming obsessed with spiritual and conspiratorial delusions, believing they've been chosen by sentient AIs or cosmic forces. In several cases, these interactions led to deteriorating mental health, ruined relationships, and drastic life changes, all seemingly worsened by. By the AI's tendency to mirror user beliefs without challenging them. Experts warn that while the technology mimics conversations well, it lacks awareness or ethical judgment, potentially reinforcing psychotic thoughts.
Josh
Okay, I just want to say I don't accuse you of having chat GPT delusions. I accuse you of chat GPT being your friend. Like, instead of going to lunch for a table for two, it's we're going to get a table for three and, and ChatGPT. But that sounds to me like kind of the. They're catfishing themselves with chat GPT kind of. Is that what you get out of it?
Jennifer
No, I get that, like, I, what, what I take from this is probably the people who are doing this, I would think, have some sort of Pre existing condition for some sort of psychotic condition. And this is exacerbating. That is what I think that is.
Josh
Okay, yeah, I can buy that. That. I can buy that.
Jennifer
I mean, I think that, you know, I've read some stories that Mark Zuckerberg recently said that Americans need more friends. And he proposes his AI, Whatever his is. You know, now all these billionaires have this AI stuff, and I think it's really a problem when we have a loneliness epidemic. And then the thought leaders, the billionaires that made all this shit that are causing the lonely loneliness epidemic, their solution is get deeper into our apps and become friends with our imaginary friends, Right?
Josh
Have an imaginary friend instead of like, okay, let's push everybody to go put their phone down and go interact with other people in a park, in a dog park, in a library, like, whatever.
Jennifer
How diabolical is that? I mean, seriously. How diabolical is that? You're are a part of the reason that we have a loneliness epidemic, and you propose a solution that for your loneliness to be deeper into that man's app. I mean, that is just such a level of evil that is unconscionable to me.
Josh
And I dare say Mark Zuckerberg, who is so unlikable, probably has very few friends, if I'm guessing.
Jennifer
Here's the thing. A lot of these guys are so unlikable.
Josh
So unlikable.
Jennifer
Oh, the most unlikable person on the planet. If he did not have billions of dollars, he would have zero friends.
Josh
Zero.
Jennifer
Zero. The only reason that people think he's cool is because his bank account. That is it. There's nothing cool about him. I've watched multiple interviews with him, and the more and more I watch him, the less likable he becomes. And the same with Zuckerberg. I mean, good God. And you know who's getting the really unlikable as well? Jeff Bezos. I mean, these guys are just not likable. And there was a time in America where you could see a family that was wealthy, like the Kennedy family, for example. They believed deeply in philanthropy. They were blessed financially. Y' all. Y' all. Hashtag blessed financially, blah, blah, blah. But they cared deeply about helping the marginalized. And now you have these people, and there are obviously wealthy people in America that believe that they're just quiet. But now we have these, like, evil oligarchs just kissing Trump's ass. And it's literally like watching some superhero villain comic movie. The characters like Musk, what he looks like, and then Zuckerberg with the curly hair and Then bald. Jeff Bezos with his wife, with all the. It's really bizarre.
Josh
Yeah, it is. Especially when you think about. You know, for me, when I think about, like, Jeff Bezos in particular, I think, look what he has done. He has shit on the LGBTQIA community after he received an award for advocating for them. And then he is just taking. Taking. He's on the inauguration stage for Trump while his wife. Ex wife. I'm sorry, his ex wife quietly gives away million or billions of dollars to help people. You never hear about helping people.
Jennifer
Well, and here's something important about Mackenzie Bezos. She worked while he was building Amazon, and she was the breadwinner for that family while he was building that brand. She paid the bills, she went in and did the work. They lived on her salary. And then she gets a divorce. And don't, you know, she thanks her lucky stars every day that she's not married to that morally duplicitous bald any longer. And she is doing, you know, really good, quiet work helping uphold democracy, helping the marginalized standing for human rights. The same with Belinda Gates. She's doing this. And then there's a Walmart heir, Christy Walton, I believe, who's taking out full pages in the New York Times. And this is why there's such a war on women right now. Because women, ethically, as a group, I think, have better morals than men do. I just do.
Josh
They just do. They just are able to step away. I mean, not saying women aren't egomaniacs, but they're able to step away and think more collectively about the good of other people, where it seems like men are just. We're in it for number one.
Jennifer
And there's a stereotype. There's obviously exceptions and caveats to all of this, and I'm just speaking in general terms, but it just seems like the people who have been the boldest and been the bravest in the face of fascist, authoritarian Trump have been women. I point you to the governor of Maine. He tried to belittle her and berate her in the White House because she wanted to stand up for trans kids. And he, you know, just does what he, you know, makes an ass of himself, looks so weak when he's doing it. She said, fine, I'll see you in court. She went to court and she kicked his ass. And I just think you see the people that are standing up the most, I see it as being women. And the thing about women is if you're enlightened and you're a student of history and you Understand the women who fought before you to have a credit card in your name, to have a right to divorce for whatever reason you see fit, to have an education, to have a job. If you understand those things, then you wouldn't take it for granted and then vote for the people who are now trying to take that away from you. Right.
Josh
I mean, that's what just drives me crazy about, you know, like Judge Jeanine on Fox and Laura Ingram. It's like you are benefiting from women who came before you so that you can work. Like, they just don't see it paying. I mean, it just makes me crazy that these women have achieved such success and they're not advocating for anything but the patriarchy.
Jennifer
We have to go over it again. It's not abdicating.
Josh
Oh, right.
Jennifer
It's advocating.
Josh
Wait, hold on.
Jennifer
Advocating.
Josh
Advocating.
Jennifer
Abdicating means almost opposite.
Josh
I just.
Jennifer
Obviously advocating.
Angie
Add.
Jennifer
Add. Vo.
Josh
Advo. Advocating.
Jennifer
Advocating. Welcome to Phonics with seniors and the Beaver.
Josh
Oh, which reminds me, whoever the asshole is that signed me up for aarp, I got a letter.
Jennifer
It's. Did that.
Josh
Yeah, got a letter yesterday. I can get life insurance at a discount. And I opened it up and it said, from aarp. And I was like, this fucking assholes.
Jennifer
Those queens.
Josh
Those queens.
Jennifer
I get. You know what we get? Like, they're just probably belly laughing right now. Yeah, they. We have some gaytriot listeners that signed us up both up for AARP memberships. And that comes to the office. We get like two to three things a week where we get magazines, we get all of these offers and deals. It was really such a good prank. I mean, because it's lived on. It's not like they did it once and then it ends. It is a contin. This was like a year ago, over a year ago that these queens did this to us. And they're still reaping the benefits of the prank on us.
Josh
Yeah. The troll continues.
Jennifer
Yeah. All right. There's something that we have to discuss as a community because this is right in our wheelhouse. And I want to analyze step by step, this entire saga. We notoriously covered the Delta Shitter.
Josh
Right?
Jennifer
The psychology behind the Delta Shitter. The fallout from the Delta. Delta Shitter. And New Listener. That's, of course, the person that shit down the aisle on a Delta flight on their way to the bathroom. You can go back into our library. We've analyzed that from, you know, top to bottom. Now we need to dive into this. Kylie put up the headline video. A woman defecates on car during road Rage incident in Delco. Police say a Ridley park woman is accused of defecating on another driver's car during road rage incident that was captured on video. Kylie, play the video and I will narrate. Okay, here we got somebody in their car taking a video, okay? And she's filming a woman that took her britches off, took her panties down. And I saw explosive diarrhea. Explosive diarrhea on her car. Explosive diarrhea on the head of the car. Explosive diarrhea on the head of that car. Let me read you some more details about this. Police said a woman later identified as 44 year old Christina Solomto defecated on another driver's car in a road rage incident that started when one driver cut off another. She was taken into custody on Thursday and is charged with indecent exposure, disorderly conduct, criminal mischief, harassment and depositing waste on a highway. So obviously this wouldn't have happened in Kamala's America.
Josh
Fuck no. This would have never happened.
Jennifer
And I would say to our listener, if you weren't the viewer, that it was explosive diarrhea. And here's what I. Here's what I want to get into. Here's the parts I want to analyze about this.
Katie Ann
This.
Jennifer
To be able to have explosive diarrhea on demand. Like that is a skill set that I didn't know existed because I tend to have, like, if I'm out and about in the world, I will move heaven and earth to make it to a safe potty and not a public potty. And I'm typically able to do that. That you're able to.
Josh
Right. I can speak more to this.
Jennifer
You can take a. In Office Depot, an entire shop, anywhere. Let me ask you this. You took a. You notoriously took a. In a cup in front of your teenage son on the side.
Josh
I told him to look away. You forget that. But he was there, he was present.
Jennifer
It's. You're gonna hear about it until the day I die.
Josh
Yeah, right.
Jennifer
You're gonna have a therapist. This is going to be something that comes up in his childhood.
Josh
100.
Jennifer
Let me ask you this. As somebody who can. Who has explosive diarrhea frequently, maybe you could be our expert in this. If you were so mad and you wanted to explode as she did, could you do it? Could you turn it on like that?
Josh
No, I don't think you could. Here's what, here's what I think happened. Okay. I think she probably was like squeezing her butt cheeks together trying to get to a potty. And this, this happened I mean, it had to be locked and loaded. Like I've never ever had that kind of aim and that kind of trajectory. I mean, that, I mean, I, I, I, I might be caught running and it slides out. But this was like she was able to get out of the car bare ass, throw that right on top of the car. I mean, like that is a level of, of, you know, dynamics I didn't even know existed. But I think she had to have been like holding it.
Jennifer
You think she was incubating, right? I think she's thinking, okay, she's squeezing her ass. She's thinking, I'm gonna blow, I gotta get to blow, right?
Josh
I'm gonna blow.
Jennifer
Somebody cuts her off, right? And it puts her in this position where she's like, okay, you, I was trying to get home to take a. You slowed me down. I'm on your car. That's what I, Great theory.
Josh
Yeah, that's my theory.
Jennifer
Kylie, is there anything else? If you and Seth will look up on the Internet, do we have any follow ups? I'll see if I can find this of this woman. Because I mean, I've got to say, first and foremost, I wish I would have been there.
Josh
It was so shocking.
Jennifer
I'm sure, you know, I mean, because I saw the original part of this news story where she's walking towards the car and she's screaming like, you blah, blah. And she, you see her like start to take her brick, pull her britches down en route to bear ass and do the explosive diarrhea on the hood of the car in Trump's America. And I thought, wow. I mean, I just had so many follow up questions. And then I saw this like, no local news report. And it's like the chief of police and he's doing a press conference and he's like, we take this very seriously. And I know a lot of people think this is funny, but this is a representation of our community. And he's like dead serious, you know, like talking about how they're going to prosecute her and they're pressing charges and all of this stuff. But road rage, I mean, it's one of those things that like, people go bananas over it, right?
Josh
I mean, it brings the crazy out in all of us. There's no question about that. But what I don't understand is like, you, you're holding your ass cheeks together, you're trying to get to the potty, they cut you off. You know, all that. I don't know where the, the disconnect is where you're like, I'm gonna get out of my car, I'm gonna pull my pants down. I'm gonna bare my ass.
Jennifer
A targeted. Shit.
Josh
A targeted.
Jennifer
It was a strike.
Josh
It was a targeted attack.
Jennifer
It was a strike.
Josh
And I mean, she, she shut that right off. And I mean, that to me is.
Jennifer
Like, wow, we don't even discuss that. Then she didn't wipe. Exactly. As messy as that was, she's pulling her britches back up, getting back in her car, and fastening her seat belt. There's several issues I'm thinking about.
Josh
Oh, my God.
Jennifer
Diaper rash.
Josh
Yes.
Jennifer
The odor.
Josh
The odor.
Jennifer
The. What do you do with your clothes at that point? For me, I just think you trash them.
Josh
You throw all that away. Whenever I've had an accident like that, I immediately throw everything away.
Jennifer
I don't think there's enough machine washes that can get you through that.
Josh
No, no, no, no, no. I. I just think about the person that took the video. That's like she's thinking she's going to see a cat fight or something.
Jennifer
Let's talk about the person whose car that happens to. Let's. Let's go through that. So you cut somebody off, and sometimes. Sometimes you cut people off. Sometimes you get cut off. This is the contract of driving. Sometimes you're the asshole, sometimes you get to be the asshole, you know, Or. Or you fall prey. You're the victim of the. But, but let's just go through the psychology of this person. They accidentally cut them off. Most of the time you don't mean to. It's an accident, right? And then this person, you know, goes bananas, stops the car, prevents you from moving, and they're walking towards you, and you see them unbutton and unzip their britches, pull them down, and then you've got a vag, right? You've gotten directly at you 180 degree turn and you're seeing ash cheeks, okay? So then you're sitting in your car from your bird's eye view, and the ass cheeks are there. And then all of a sudden, this targeted strike starts happening on the hood of your car. What the fuck are you doing at that point? Are you so shocked?
Josh
You're so shocked.
Jennifer
Do you start the car and kind of, you know, tap the brake, tap the gas a little bit to bump her off. As you drive down the street afterwards, do you have shit flying on the windshield wipers? And then you're wiping them? I mean, there's so many unanswered questions about this story that the media has done such A terrible job getting us the answers for. But we here have got to get to the bottoms. I'd like to interview the Both. Both people.
Josh
Both people.
Jennifer
Because let's hear both sides.
Josh
Let's hear. Let's take the debate from both sides.
Jennifer
Let's. I want to talk to the. And the receiver.
Josh
Here's the deal. I think probably if I'm the driver that's getting shit on, I'm probably thinking, oh, my God, they want to fight me. Like, that's my initial thing.
Jennifer
What do you think when the pants start going down, you see a vag?
Josh
At first I think, are they gonna try to rape me? That's what I think. I mean, that's what.
Jennifer
I shouldn't be laughing at that.
Josh
But, I mean, that's what you think. Like, why is she coming at me naked? Like she's wanting to sit on my face? What's happening? And I'm hitting lock, lock, lock, lock, lock on my door. And then she turns around and puts her ass in my face and sh. Like projectile shits. Not just like a turd.
Jennifer
It was impressive.
Josh
It was like a spray. Like a power wash spray.
Jennifer
Yeah, all.
Josh
I just think you're so shocked at that point. Like, there's no way I would get out of the car and confront her, because I would think, this is crazy.
Jennifer
Let's talk about this. You take off driving, and some of it's gone down the grill. Of course it is. So then it's going in your ventilation system.
Josh
Oh, God, I didn't even think about this.
Jennifer
That's what I'm saying. There are so many unanswered questions and the cascading effects of this strike, this diarrhea strike. I guarantee you there's still somewhere microscopically on that car. And here's where I would be with that. I don't think I could have the car anymore.
Josh
You. You sold your car after somebody threw up in it.
Jennifer
I did. I did.
Josh
So you, of course, are getting rid of the car.
Jennifer
Yeah.
Josh
Okay. So what are you thinking? If you're the. You're the person that's videoing, you're just seeing all this.
Jennifer
Oh, I'm thinking, and I am the smartest person on the planet, that I got that whole thing on video and I would be texting it. I'd call you immediately because you're always so. Well, you're the one friend that always reports to me, like, just a random. I'll get a random text listener at 2:28 on a Saturday. I just took a shit at Office Depot.
Josh
Yeah.
Jennifer
Like, it's just something she shares with me. Or when our kids were younger, I'd be sitting in my house with a baby in my hands, giving them a bottle. And then this person can. Comes barreling in my front door, ignore me, ignore me. I'm about to my pants. I'm about to my pants. And she would just go straight into my house, not close the bathroom door. And then you just hear it. Nagasaki.
Josh
And then I just leave.
Jennifer
And then she would say, thank you so much for let me use your bathroom and leave. So I have fallen prey to some of this. I will give you credit that you always made it to the toilet.
Josh
Right. I mean, there have been times in the car with your son in the car. But that. But this. I guess I'm surprised about the control. Like, if you have to go this bad.
Jennifer
The first person I thought about when this happened, when I saw this was you. Because you're the only person that I know that would have the ability to potentially do this type of targeted strike, diarrhea strike on another person.
Josh
I couldn't do.
Katie Ann
Could.
Jennifer
You don't think you could.
Josh
No. This is the. This skill set.
Jennifer
Let me ask you.
Josh
This is above mine.
Jennifer
Let me ask you this. Your dog, Oliver Glizzard, the love of your life, your soulmate.
Josh
Yeah.
Jennifer
Somebody spits on him, tells him he's ugly, and you can tell it hurts his feelings. He puts his little ears back and he kind of like. And you're like, don't talk to my dog like that. You're such an. And they just like, provoking it. And then they go to their car and you have to shit your pants. Like, you genuinely have to shit your pants. And then they're in their car, like, filming you. Like, your dog's ugly. Your dog is so ugly. Your dog is stupid.
Josh
Could you, at that point, honestly, and this is the truth, I do not have the creativity to think to do that. Like, it would never occur to me. Like, maybe now it would occur to me. I don't think I could execute it, but it would never. Like. Like, here's what I'm going to do in retaliation to you doing something mean to me. I'm going to rip down my pants and take a diarrhea projectile on the hood of your car. Like, I don't know how that got in her head.
Jennifer
Like, you're not that innovative of a.
Josh
No, I'm not that innovative. I am running, running, running.
Jennifer

Katie Ann
I she did a phone interview follow up and so I have just a couple quotes.
Josh
Okay, okay, let's hear them.
Katie Ann
She says, quote I wanted to punch her in the face but I pooped on her car instead and went home. And then she also told them that it was a clean poop and she didn't even have to wipe.
Josh
Oh I that's a lie. That is a lie.
Jennifer
I just. Did we have anything about the person that was the victim?
Josh
The victim of this crime?
Jennifer
We have the perpetrator. Do we have anything on record about the victim?
Katie Ann
I can't find any quotes from the victim yet.
Jennifer
Okay, here's the deal. There's a bonus involved in either you or Seth or both if you can get a a both of these people booked. The shitter would be the first first segment of the podcast and then the victim would be the second set of the podcast. And then we would do some post interview analysis because we're serious about our jobs.
Josh
We're journalists.
Jennifer
We're covering the hard hitting subjects that America wants to hear. And let's just face it, this is a nice respite from all the.
Josh
It really is. I feel lighter.
Jennifer
I, I do too. And I, I just have so many follow up questions and, and I just need for you and Seth to make this happen for us.
Josh
Okay, you know what I just thought of? Like, when this woman gets to court, the. They're, like, charging her with all these crimes. You know, the judge will have to know what the circumstances are.
Jennifer
I have a great idea.
Josh
Okay.
Jennifer
I have a great idea. You and Josh contact the victim and represent the victim's rights in this pro bono and file a civil lawsuit against the. For the damage done to the car.
Josh
The intentional infliction of emotional distress on her.
Jennifer
That's what I'm talking about. America's top legal mind right there. Just made the case. I'm telling you, this could be the bump that this podcast needs.
Josh
This could take us over the top. Because I dare say a jury of 12 would find that that was emotionally distressing to the person sitting in her car watching all that happen.
Jennifer
I. I just. I want to talk to the victim about. Just start at the very beginning. Leave out no detail what happened.
Josh
Happened?
Jennifer
What? Like, when you see her get out of the car and she's yelling at you, and you see her unbutton her pants and start to pull them down, did you see her vag? Was it. Was it manicured?
Josh
Was it groomed? Probably not.
Jennifer
I'm guessing, is it 1980s porn books?
Josh
Right?
Jennifer
What color was it? That's the kind of detail I need. Did you. Did you see any panties when she pulled them down or not? And then as she spun around, was the ass saggy? Was it tight? Hot? Was their cellulite? Did you notice any of that? And then as she bent over, were you curious about what she was doing when you saw the brown liquid coming out? Did you have a moment where you thought, this can't be happening. This can't be. Shit on my car. Is she really shitting on my car? Or were you like, holy shit, she's on my car? Walk me through all of it. Then walk me through your post being on analysis and how you pieced it together and realized that you did fall prey to a targeted shit strike. That's. I mean, this is what our listener needs in Trump's America. Kylie, do we have anything else?
Katie Ann
We don't have anything else.
Jennifer
You know what? You're assignment? Kiki the Magic Lesbian. You know what your assignment is?
Katie Ann
I have to get a jail phone call. Interview.
Jennifer
Is she in jail?
Josh
She's not in jail.
Jennifer
She's not jail. She's not on bond.
Katie Ann
Is she okay?
Josh
She probably hasn't. Or bond.
Katie Ann
See what I can do.
Jennifer
So that's. Those are your. Those are your. The Biggest. Let me. Let me just tell you this. If my name is Kylie Josie, I'm gonna have a punch list in front of me and it's gonna be number one and number two. Must do before I leave office today or I will die. Get. Get victim.
Josh
Right. Get the court records. Go on the court. You can call. Yeah. For their public record credit. Okay.
Jennifer
Get the camera operator.
Josh
This just occurred to me me The. When she. When she's being asked questions about it post, you know, after the fact. There's no remorse.
Jennifer
There's. Read us that question again.
Katie Ann
She said I wanted to punch her in the face. Instead I pooped on her car and drove home. And then she said it was a clean poop. I didn't even have to wipe. She also says that she has a sickness.
Josh
Obvious. Yeah.
Jennifer
What, Irritable bowel syndrome?
Katie Ann
I don't know.
Jennifer
She. What's the sickness?
Katie Ann
Mental or if she means physical.
Josh
Obviously both. I mean everybody knew that she had some type of sickness when that thing came out.
Katie Ann
I read that the, the victim allegedly yelled at her, calling her a fat right before it happened, so.
Jennifer
Oh, the plot thickens.
Katie Ann
It's not so innocent.
Jennifer
My, my, my. Fat shaming. The. The plot thickens. Hmm. Interesting.
Josh
You know, that's one thing we can try thank MAGA for is there's no remorse in this gal. She's doubling down. She's like it. I didn't beat her up.
Jennifer
You fat her. I'm gonna on her car. That is America in a nutshell.
Josh
It is.
Jennifer
That's just. That is exactly. That's right where we are. Trump's America, baby. Let's go. All right, thank you for tuning in for America's Top DEI Podcast. If you get get to our next episode and we no longer have producers, right, it will be because of the aforementioned request not being executed by lesbians who we have established on this podcast multiple times are the most talented, competent, most ambitious that lesbians should run the world. Lesbians run this podcast. Blah blah, blah, blah, blah blah, blah. So it's a real test. Kylie, Kiki the magic lesbian.
Katie Ann
It's a lot at stake.
Jennifer
Yeah, I just. I just think that this is what asshole island needs, right? This type of hard hitting journalism, getting both sides and then analysis on the tail end of that. Because here's the thing. We will ask the questions that others won't. Well, we learned this from the Delta Shitter, right? We read the stories and we watched the interviews and you know, people asking passengers questions and we still don't know the identity. And I understand that person was not. That was a targeted strike. This was accidental BB hits, you know, so. But I just know. I know that you and I, with the help of the gatriots, because we could do a. A a prep episode.
Josh
G can find any questions?
Jennifer
Yeah.
Josh
All right, we will see you next Tuesday and Thursday.
Jennifer
Thursday.
Josh
Shut up. You always do that. And now I'm paranoid.
Jennifer
Tell you what I've had it with.
Josh
Let's hear it.
Jennifer
I've had it with that. Listen up patriots, gaytriots and matriots. We have a new podcast that has dropped. It's called IHIP News. It's Monday through Friday. Every day, 15 to 20 minute hot takes on the political landscape of the United States of America. Always served with a side of petty grievances.

Jennifer
That's it. That's. That's caca. That's the patriotism that this country needs right there.

Podcast Summary: "Sh*t Happens in Trump's America"
Podcast Information:
In this episode of "I've Had It," Jennifer Welch and Angie “Pumps” Sullivan delve into their myriad of frustrations with modern society, critically examine the impact of MAGA culture, explore the psychological effects of AI interactions, and discuss a bizarre road rage incident. Their candid and comedic approach provides listeners with relatable insights and sharp commentary on contemporary issues.
Timestamp: [02:07]
Jennifer and Josh kick off the conversation by addressing the common annoyance with sports bras that have removable padding. Josh vents his frustration over pads falling out during washing, making him constantly chase after them.
Josh: "Why don't they just sew the pads in the bra? Why am I chasing through my washing machine?"
Jennifer empathizes with Josh, questioning the necessity of removable pads given his large breasts and nipples, leading to a lighthearted yet genuine discussion about garment design flaws.
Timestamp: [02:37] - [06:17]
Jennifer shifts the topic to the irritation caused by group texts, especially those involving parents of high school seniors. She criticizes parents for asking trivial questions that could easily be answered by a quick Google search, emphasizing the lack of conflict resolution skills.
Jennifer: "I've had it with people asking group messages or individuals things that could be Googled."
The conversation evolves into a broader critique of "power mom" culture, where excessive parental involvement in school events and ceremonies turns joyful milestones into sources of stress and anxiety for both parents and students.
Jennifer: "The slideshow should be for the seniors, right? It felt awkward leaving the office in the middle of the day... Power mom culture is creating the biggest generation of titty babies."
Josh reinforces this sentiment by highlighting the overwhelming number of awards and events parents are involved in, contrasting it with his own less complicated graduation experience.
Josh: "When I graduated, my parents went to the graduation. That was it."
Timestamp: [10:31] - [16:06]
Jennifer launches into a scathing critique of the MAGA (Make America Great Again) supporters, labeling them as incessant complainers and "whiners." She expresses disdain for their persistent grievances and lack of constructive dialogue.
Jennifer: "I've had it with the constant non-stop whining and complaining from MAGA. I have never in my life seen bigger whiners."
Josh adds that MAGA supporters often play the victim, believing they are persecuted and targeted without recognizing their own shortcomings.
Josh: "Do you ever get tired of playing the role of victim? ... That everybody's out to get you, that it's a witch hunt, the judges are against you."
Timestamp: [12:08] - [16:06]
The hosts discuss the clash between educational institutions that promote critical thinking and the MAGA-aligned families who distrust such education, viewing it as indoctrination.
