Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. Political Celebrity Outrage and America's Birthday (00:10–05:57)

• Mocking Celebrity Melodrama:
  Kennedy opens by roasting left-leaning celebrities upset by Donald Trump's presidency during the 250th Fourth of July celebrations. Judd Apatow, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Moby are ribbed for their social media reactions.

  • "Like, Moby showed up. He's like, it's hot out on the 4th of July and everyone knows it's because of Trump and climate change." — Jimmy Failla (00:37)

• Nostalgia and Festivities:
  They note that July 4th should be about fun, unity, and good spirit, marked by traditions like the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest and fireworks. Leftist outrage, they joke, can’t overshadow the nation’s celebratory mood.

  • "The Fourth of July, specifically America 250, is a good vibe kind of day." — Kennedy (01:17)

• Historic Sacrifice vs. Modern Grievance:
  The co-hosts reflect on the courage of the Founding Fathers and the need for gratitude, contrasting modern, performative outrage with the real sacrifices of past generations.

  • "The 56 people who signed the Declaration of Independence pretty much knew they were going to die, be imprisoned and lose everything. And they're like, we're in." — Jimmy Failla (04:53)

2. Sports, Summer, and American Culture (02:59–09:06)

• Yankees’ Woes and Baseball Banter:
  Kennedy recounts attending a Yankees game over the holiday, joking about the team’s poor performance and the sorry state of New York baseball.

  • "The Yankees actually lost the father son game this year. I think the kids won 9, 4." — Jimmy Failla (03:17)

• Tradition and Ridiculousness:
  The spirited banter covers the crowd traditions at Yankee Stadium (like the groundskeepers’ “YMCA” dance) and conjures up a comedic image of burning school buses to celebrate the Knicks’ victory, satirizing classic New York celebration clichés.

• “Met” Disillusionment:
  Continued jabbing at the Mets’ failing season with surreal jokes about softball pitchers and the use of Nerf balls.

  • "I don't even think the Mets exist anymore. I think they retired today." — Kennedy (04:01)

3. Grateful Patriotism and Breaking Political Stereotypes (05:57–06:46)

• Unpolitical Patriotism:
  Kennedy describes wearing a festive American get-up and receiving positive reactions from across the political spectrum, emphasizing that excitement about the country transcends politics.
  • "People excited about this country don't have to be political." — Kennedy (05:57)
• Self-Deprecating Humor:
  Failla jokes about Kennedy’s energy and the kinds of attention she garners regardless of her attire.

4. The Paul Pelosi Saga (09:06–11:36)

• Paul Pelosi’s Alleged Hit-and-Run:
  The conversation pivots to news about Paul Pelosi involved in another “hit and run” incident, joking about the irony of Pelosi not having invested in Uber and riffing on his apparent lack of awareness about car cameras.
  • "It's crazy to think of all the stocks they didn't invest in—Uber, clearly." — Jimmy Failla (09:13)
  • "Is he so dumb that he doesn't realize that Teslas have like cameras around the entire..." — Kennedy (09:53)
• Reference to Past DUI:
  They recall Pelosi’s previous DUI on the Pacific Coast Highway, highlighting the comedic irony of him hitting the very road sign a police officer was hiding behind.
  • "He actually just happened to hit the sign the cop was behind. So it was a turnkey DUI because the cop was just there." — Jimmy Failla (10:25)
• Jokes About Consequences and Favoritism:
  The discussion continues in a tongue-in-cheek fashion about whether privilege or “friendly cops” help Pelosi, and Kennedy riffs on Nancy Pelosi’s fictional affairs as part of her stand-up:
  • "In my sick fetishist imagination... Nancy Pelosi is having a very physical sexual affair with a member of Congress." — Kennedy (11:06)

5. Closing: The Resilience of Fun and Perspective (11:36–12:45)

• Rejecting Cynicism:
  The duo lament the pearl-clutching of those unhappy with America, finding joy in the fact that such scolds do not represent the spirit of American celebration.
  • "No one likes a scold. And the fact that those people were making time to only scold you on the 4th of July... They suck. But their misery somehow fills my heart with joy." — Kennedy (12:22)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On Outrage Fatigue:
  "Nobody cares. And I think for a lot of people, obviously, they try to gain some relevance by being like, I'm going to be the guy who's the spoke in the rim. Nobody cares." — Jimmy Failla (00:37)

Transcript

[A]

Foreign.

[B]

Hello, and welcome to this episode of Kennedy Saves the World. It's. It's Monday. Everyone survived 250, unless you're Judd Apatow and Sarah Jessica Parker. They were all very, very sad, apparently, that it just occurred to them that Donald Trump is president and it ruined their weekend. I didn't think about the president at all. Didn't care one way or the other. Jimmy Phelis here. I'm still laughing about all the. All the leftist celebrities.

[A]

Like, Moby showed up. He's like, it's hot out on the 4th of July and everyone knows it's because of Trump and climate change. I was like, what do you want? Why? Like, why are you even like. Because the point is, nobody cares. And I think for a lot of people, obviously, they try to gain some relevance by being like, I'm going to be the guy who's the spoke in the rim. Nobody cares.

[B]

Moby opened a tea restaurant.

[A]

A tea restaurant in the.

[B]

In the late 90s. He can sit this one out.

[A]

Yeah, you just. Let's relax. All right, hotshot? But even for the Judd Apathy, the sour Jessica Parker is like, nobody cares.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

You're never going to be at the party and say, like, I can't wait till the guy who's angry gets here.

[B]

That's.

[A]

That's. The point is, like, for whatever you might think about Trump, like, the Fourth of July, specifically America 250, is a good vibe kind of day. It starts with a hot dog eating contest.

[B]

Oh, my God.

[A]

You know, the whole, like, this is

[B]

not the Hill to die Joey Jaws Chestnut.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And he threw 18th victory.

[A]

It was crazy.

[B]

65. It's either 65 or 68, but, you know, we're talking five dozen plus dogs.

[A]

It was a number. And the point is, in like, 107 degree Coney island heat, just between the weather and the crack pipes in Coney island, like, these are oppressive eating conditions. Okay. And like, the point is a day that begins with a nationally televised hot

[B]

dog eating contest that people legitimately look

[A]

forward to, it's just not grounds for any of your own personal animosities to be worked out on the national stage, because nobody cares.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

There are other avenues we could go down, but that's the larger point I'm trying to make, is nobody cares.

[B]

So military Rain man and I watched all of the boats and the planes and the flyovers, and I was like, get out here. F18. That's F14. That's F35. That's about a billion dollars per aircraft. I worked on those engines. You know, I worked on those engine. I worked on the F35 program.

[A]

Like that kid who could do all the bird calls. She could just hear the sound of the plane and she knows where it is, where it was built.

[B]

No, that's not me.

[A]

That's. I know. Oh yeah, yeah, I know. Your teenage boyfriend.

[B]

Yeah, my sexy teenage boyfriend. She's not a teenager anymore. He's 20. We've established that. It's perfectly legal.

[A]

It's all fine now.

[B]

Many states, your honor, many states on both side support this union.

[A]

Thank you.

[B]

Then we, we had the great fortune of going and seeing the Yankees. Oh man, during their. Their skid. I was so convinced that I was going to be the good luck charm. And then they had. I think they had my neighbor growing up from childhood on the mound. It was like some guy named Brendan or Brandon.

[A]

The Yankees actually lost the father son game this year. I think the kids won 9, 4. I think the bullpen blew it late. There's like a bunch of five year olds with those fat wiffle ball bats. You know the ones that look like Bam Bam from the fl. It's like, it's. It's like the yang like this, this sporting summer. So it's like the yin is the Knicks won a championship and we did what you do, which is burn school buses and everything like that. Which is great. But now this other thing.

[B]

I mean, by the way, not illegal in mom Dani's New York.

[A]

No. Are you kidding me? That's the only way you're gonna get a free bus from mom Donnie's if you commandeer it.

[B]

They were handing out little jars of propane.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And matches to all the kids after the Knicks win.

[A]

Celebrate accordingly. But again, the Yankees are a turkey. Okay, The Mets, obviously we know the whole met.

[B]

I don't even think the Mets exist anymore. I think they retired today.

[A]

I think they use a Nerf. I think that's. They're not even using a real ball now. It's so sad. And again so they're having softball pitchers

[B]

come out like 10ft in front of the mound.

[A]

There are so many. They're going to use the old rock and jock 50 point hoop to get the Mets some points. Get them back in the game. It's sad. And that's the point is like with so many dumb things going on that are. That are already there to drag people down in the day to day. The idea that you want to protest like the best party because was a good party, you know Those World War II dudes. Were out there at midnight.

[B]

Yeah, but the images of them watching fireworks from their monuments. Yes, I. That, that, like, gave me chills and. And I had to sit in silence and, and think about that for a good long time.

[A]

There was, you know, what I did on. I watched the Patriot with Mel Gibson and it's heavy.

[B]

Are you guys friends?

[A]

Me, Me and Mel, we use a lot of the same language now. It's a similar voicemail company. I kid, but hey, sugar, hey. But when you watch a movie like that, it does give you perspective. They're like, literally like generations of people. Like, the Founding Father's a good example of this. The 56 people who signed the Declaration of Independence pretty much knew they were going to die, be imprisoned and lose everything. And they're like, we're in. And now we're sitting here all these years later, like, that cast isn't diverse enough. I know they stormed the beach would

[B]

not be eligible for the Academy Awards.

[A]

I know they stormed the beach and stop the Nazis. But, like, check your whiteness at the boat door. Am I right? And I'm like, no, no, just. Just win the war. Just win the war. And we won these wars, or a lot of them anyway. And so it's like there's such a time right now of all times, to have incredible gratitude. And we've never been less appreciative as a society because of the whole squeaky wheel gets the most grease thing. So the people hating America make all the headlines and you feel like they define this generation, but they don't. Saturday was proof that the good guys are still winning.

[B]

Yes. And people excited about this country don't have to be political.

[A]

Nope.

[B]

That's what I realized. Like, I was walking around in an American flag romper with an American flag visor and an American flag scarf, and I got high fives from some unlikely people that I would assume, based on my shortsightedness, they wouldn't be as excited about my garb.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

As, say, you know, maybe some of the fellows at the VFW fair. Yeah.

[A]

But you also have the energy of a special needs child. So you get a lot of high fives no matter what you wear.

[B]

Just randomly high five who's mom's special little guy.

[A]

Like, what I think the most frequently uttered phrase when I'm walking down the street with you is the zoo is that way. Just being silly.

[B]

Don't go anywhere more. Kennedy saves the world right after this.

[B]

So we're at the Yankees game, they're playing the Twins. I started rooting for the Twins. It's like you know there are a lot of Yankees fans when the Twins like one after. It must have been like home run night for the Twins. Like I didn't, I didn't see that in the literature before we walked into the stadium. And of course when the opposing team hits a home run at Yankee Stadium there's chance of throw it back and you know, nine times out of ten people and. But I was like no, just go ahead and keep it.

[A]

Yeah, who cares? They're just going to hit another one anyway.

[B]

Souvenir for a winner. What must that feel like?

[A]

Like they lost to the Minnesota Twins. Like that's a notch below the Olsen Twins. Like I mean like the Minnesota Twins. Do you know the Yankees have, I

[B]

think Brian Brenberg was playing shortst.

[A]

The Minnesota Twins like for real, for real though have lost 85% of their games to the Yankees since the year 2000. And we managed to get like blown out on America's birthday. And in Yankee Stadium it's synonymous with like iconic moments. Lou Gehrig's today I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth was given on July 4th. Okay. Dave Rigetti threw a no hitter 1983. So like things have happened of serious cultural import at Yankee stadium on the 4th of July. Lost 11 to 6.

[B]

But I, I will say this. I did have one of the, the yard long margaritas.

[A]

Oh yeah.

[B]

And like we just ignored the baseball and everything else that happened incidentally of the baseball was amazing of that. You know it's like I, I was sitting with someone who got to witness the groundskeepers doing the YMCA for the first time.

[A]

They love that. Yeah, yeah. The YMCA is still a thing at Yankee Stadium. And it's nice because they have the, the, the El Warren plays the Indian now cuz they, they she comes out. It's like cuz we don't know if it's offensive or not to have the full headdress so we're like we have to get one. And she comes in and does great rock though. Yeah. Pocahontas.

[B]

Oh, I forgot to ask you about Paul Pelosi.

[A]

Wow.

[B]

So another hit and run From Paul Pelosi.

[A]

Yeah. Who knew?

[B]

Did Nancy keep the hammer?

[A]

It's. It's crazy to think of all the stocks they didn't invest in Uber. Clearly. Which is wayo.

[B]

Like there. There's so many options. That's like they've got like a half a billion dollars, you know, just because of Paul's hard work.

[A]

You know, that grit, that elbow greases, you know, getting out there. I love this story, though. So they said he had a 0.00 blood alcohol content. Now that could technically mean he was on pills. It could also mean they just Tiger woods. Also. Yeah. Thank you. And. And that's the point, is that they also could have had a friendly cop. But the fact remains, like, these are the. This is a 1pm yeah. DUI.

[B]

Yeah. This is a 1pm DI. Like he crunched the. The rear quarter panel of that Tesla and. Is he so dumb? Like, I know he's 86, but I know a lot of spry 86 year olds. Is he so dumb that he doesn't realize that Teslas have like cameras around the entire.

[A]

Apparently, yes. Apparently. To answer your question, yes.

[B]

That's all they had to do. Like the. The driver comes back, he's like, what the hell? Oh, I'll just. Oh, there we go. Yeah. Here's a license plate. Officer runs it. It's like, well, how close? He's at it again.

[A]

His last dui, which was on the PCH in Malibu. This is magical. But do you know when a cop hides behind a sign because he's shooting radar, there's a road sign. He hit that sign. So he got a dui. He actually just happened to hit the sign the cop was behind. So it was a turnkey dui because the cop was just there.

[B]

Yeah. And the cop's like, I have no choice.

[A]

Yes. So, yeah, I couldn't even let him go.

[B]

I would love to look the other way. Mr. Pelosi.

[A]

Thank you. Having said that, for a couple of hot day trades. Just tell me what to short and you can be on Take the back Roads, but no. So I love this story. Crazy story.

[B]

I know. And I. I do have something in my act about Nancy Pelosi. I know that, that she is loyal to her husband, but in my sick fetishist imagination. Imagination. Nancy Pelosi is having a very physical sexual affair with a member of Congress.

[A]

Oh.

[B]

And so. And I act that out in my show and it's worth the price of admission.

[A]

You damn right it is.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I love it.

[B]

Yeah. Elizabeth Warren's jealous.

[A]

They're all jealous deep down. That's the point. And like, you got to think of this moment. We've never stopped having fun. There's a lot of people that just don't know how to start. So they gravitate towards this. Like, screw America, Trump. Who cares? You're here. And American250 is not about one of them.

[B]

What I've been looking forward to because I knew that this would be the moment where they, they couldn't stay quiet. Like this was the moment that drove them over the edge of insanity. Yeah, they fell off the cliff this weekend because this is when they realized that he is president during 250 during the World cup. And there's nothing they can do about it. And it is the most magical thing in the world. I don't care what your politics are.

[A]

Doesn't matter.

[B]

No one likes a scold. And the fact that those people were making time to only scold you on the 4th of July. 250. They suck. But their misery somehow fills my heart with joy. And maybe that makes me a bad person.

[A]

No, it doesn't.

[B]

But I like to think that's an expression of our ability to have a great time.

[A]

Amen. Your honor.
