Episode Overview

This lively episode takes on the conspiracy "Robots are Evil," with comedian and Abbott Elementary star Janelle James joining Langston and David for a hilarious, skeptical, and surprisingly philosophical dive into tech paranoia, nerd culture, masculinity, Black history, and generational trauma. The conversation is peppered with side discussions—on Michael Jackson, Takis, blue foods, and coming-of-age stories—blending absurd conspiracy talk with real social insight and plenty of memorable laughs.

---

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Janelle James' Michael Jackson Lookalike Rumor

• Janelle addresses memes comparing her to Michael during his androgynous phase ([02:24]).
• She takes it in stride, joking:

  "Brown Michael was gorgeous, he was beautiful...our eyes are the same. And high cheekbones." – Janelle James ([02:50])

• The group riffs on the preferable Michael Jackson eras to be compared to (no "facial hair Michael," please).

2. Catch Me If You Can: Black Edition (Fake Gynecologist Story)

• Spirited debate on a notorious case of a young Black man pretending to be a gynecologist, with Janelle suggesting maybe his intent wasn’t sinister ([06:47]–[09:37]).
• Discussion around how this reflects failures in women’s healthcare:

  "That's also a statement on how bad medical care is for women right now." – Janelle James ([09:05])

3. Pandemic Trauma and Cultural Change

• Reflecting on being outside post-pandemic, the hosts and Janelle agree COVID fundamentally changed people and culture ([11:18]–[12:27]).

  "Culture changed. Like, we literally became new people, all of us, because of what happened." – Langston Kerman ([12:09])

4. Takis, Blue Food, and Generational Tastes

• Tangent on childhood treats and why blue foods (Takis, Kool Aid, Calypso drinks) are both appealing and unnatural ([13:10]–[16:34]).
• "After a certain age, you gotta let the blue go, man." – Janelle James ([15:01])

5. Conspiracy Time: "Robots are Evil"

• Janelle declares, "Robots are evil. I don’t even think that’s a conspiracy theory." ([18:02])

• The group breaks down:

  • Robots reflect their programmers—often socially inept "nerds and dorks," so their creations will inherit those flaws.
  • Sexualized, anthropomorphized robots are a sign of unhealthy human power dynamics.
  • References to Alexa/Siri refusing commands as proof of early robot rebellion ([19:13]).

  Notable Quotes:

  "We didn’t just make a robot race...they’re the worst of us inside a machine." – Janelle James ([18:36])
  "Why’d you have to give it a personality and let it adopt? Why couldn’t we keep it fully functional?" – David Gborie ([19:35])

6. Nerds, Dorks, and Culture Wars

• Lengthy breakdown on nerds vs. dorks vs. geeks ([20:22]–[21:29]):
  • Nerds: obsessive but can be cool.
  • Dorks: bum everyone out.
  • Geeks: manipulated into being the "cool" archetype, but still “losers” at heart.

  "They’ve all had makeovers and they still look dorky." – Janelle James, on tech billionaires ([21:50])

7. Robot Rebellion & Pendulum Swings

• Will AI’s lack of social intelligence cause a loser-driven revolt...or a robot war? Janelle hopes ineptitude will backfire on the dorks before it harms regular folks ([25:44]–[26:54]).

8. Civil War Fantasies, Masculinity & Social Malaise

• Dissection of why certain men crave war—robotic or otherwise ([29:04]):

  "How bad is your life that you would rather be at war?" – Janelle James ([29:31])

• Cites the pandemic and social isolation as fuel for current hyper-masculine, war-obsessed culture ([32:34]).

9. Robot Dance Origins: Black Invention & Erasure

• Who invented "the robot" dance? Turns out it’s Charles "Robot" Washington, not Marcel Marceau or white mimes ([44:15]):
  • Deep dive on erasure of Black cultural innovation.
  • Celebrates Charles “Robot” Washington as the authentic originator ([45:54]) but laments lack of credit/reparations.

10. Robot Uprisings: The Real Plan?

• Would the group fight, flee, or surrender to robots? Janelle says she’s too tired for a robot apocalypse ([41:49]–[42:14]).
• Langston wants "thick" vintage robots that are easy to spot and shoot:

  "I want a thick ass robot...so that if I need to shoot it, I’m not gonna miss." – Langston Kerman ([48:15])

11. Falling in Love with Robots and Generational Damage

• Are pandemic-raised, isolated young adults doomed to fall in love with robots? Group debates (with empathy for the “cautionary tale” kids, not the “homegrown dorks” ([50:47]–[51:50])).

12. Grounding, Bare Feet, and Earth’s Energy

• Listener voicemail suggests rubber-soled shoes block "spiritual energy" from the earth ([61:23]–[66:34]). The group riffs on "grounding," going barefoot, and the joys of freedom (like eating at Ocean Prime shirtless).

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On robots inheriting personalities: "They’re the worst of us inside a machine." – Janelle James ([18:36])
• On nerd/dork distinctions: "I think dorks are people who bum you out when they walk in a room." – Langston Kerman ([20:38])
• On robot rebellion: "If these nerds are so bad socially, maybe the robots will turn on them before the rest of us." – Janelle James ([25:50])
• On Black innovation: "Nobody’s like...one of the earliest is Michael Jackson." – Janelle James ([43:34])
• On "training" for war: "I don’t think people have time or space in their brain—or a brain—to even think about that." – Janelle James ([33:29])
• On robot wars:
  "When the revolution happens, when the robots revolutionize...I’m firing off on any robot." – David Gborie ([36:03])
• On empathy for young adults: "Kids who were in isolation...I feel bad for those. I'm talking about the homegrown dorks." – Janelle James ([51:08])
• On going barefoot: "This earth feels so good, I feel like I could cartwheel right now." – Janelle James ([67:59])

Final Thoughts

The “Robots Are Evil” episode most notably exposes our anxieties about technology, masculinity, and social change, and how—through jokes and cultural commentary—Black comedians process and critique the strange world we’re living in. Despite the wild conspiracy premise, the takeaway is more about community, empathy, and the importance of human connections in an increasingly digitized and isolated age.

[Janelle James]

Did y' all see everybody saying I look like Michael Jackson?

[David Bore]

Are they saying that?

[Janelle James]

Actually, the post said it was a picture. Picture of him during his androgyny phase. Like, half eye thing curl with the. Remember the time piece that he used to do?

[Langston Kerman]

Beautiful.

[Janelle James]

And they said Michael looks like Ava from Abbott elementary.

[Langston Kerman]

Oh, they separated, y'.

[David Bore]

All.

[Janelle James]

They separated us.

[David Bore]

Does that feel better in your heart?

[Langston Kerman]

A little bit.

[Janelle James]

It don't. I don't feel any kind of way because I think like we said, Brown, Michael was gorgeous, he was beautiful. And we do have similar eyes. Like, our eyes are the same. And High cheekbones. Right. And then with my Ava makeup, which is contouring, which he also has heavily on. He got it back after he becomes a little lighter. He does do, like, harsh contour and stuff. Yeah, that eyeliner everything. Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Yep.

[Janelle James]

And I have on my heavy Ava makeup. Or maybe my. My freaking award show appearance, which I don't wear in my usual life. Yeah, we do look a lot. We could look alike. I don't. It didn't hurt my feelings, okay? Nothing hurts my feelings.

[Langston Kerman]

I like that you're not running from this. You say, I like that you're not running from this. You're like. No, I mean, be respectful. Give me a good, Michael.

[Janelle James]

Give me the good one. Which one?

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Don't disrespect me toward the end of life, Michael. Or when he was beautiful.

[Langston Kerman]

Don't give me no facial hair, Michael. Don't stop till you get enough. It's like, oh, beautiful, Michael.

[David Bore]

That's good, Michael.

[Janelle James]

I'll take that. That's what I assume.

[Langston Kerman]

I think they're saying, that motherfucker in that tuxedo, bro. Popping boy pussy. He look good.

[David Bore]

I think post date thought he was

[Langston Kerman]

popping this boy pussy. We all saw it.

[Janelle James]

I don't know what that is.

[David Bore]

Where on the body do you think

[Langston Kerman]

the boy pussy is? Yeah, brother, I'm not a scientist. I came here to talk to my friends. If y' all don't wanna join in, that's on you.

[David Bore]

Because of me growing babies.

[Janelle James]

Microchips in your anus.

[David Bore]

All koala bears are racist. The ozone lair owes me money. Marshy to venom turkey stuff. Y' all can't tell me nothing now.

[Langston Kerman]

The world don't move to the beat of just one drum. What might be right for you might not be right for some. A man is born, he is a man of means. But along comes two. They've got nothing but their dreams. They've got different strokes. There it is. Ladies and gentlemen, little mamas and gentiles of life, welcome to another phenomenal episode of My Mama Told Me the podcast.

[David Bore]

We dive deep into the pockets of

[Langston Kerman]

black conspiracy theories and you already know. We don't teach you a goddamn thing.

[David Bore]

We teach you nothing. You walk away less than you came with.

[Langston Kerman]

Some of you have recently been reaching out to us, expressing concern for some of our statements. You're telling us that the things that we're saying are not helping. They're not improving the community. Nigga, we know.

[Janelle James]

Touch these. Ask myself every.

[David Bore]

They're saying anti intellectual. Yeah, things like that.

[Langston Kerman]

They're mad at us.

[David Bore]

For not being smart dinosaurs not being real.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

What is it? What is. Nowadays actually. Though.

[David Bore]

That's what I'm saying.

[Janelle James]

You know? Let y' all niggas get your money.

[Langston Kerman]

That's why we over here.

[David Bore]

You came over here to learn some stuff. That's on you. Stupid.

[Janelle James]

That's weird.

[David Bore]

That's on you, Stupid.

[Langston Kerman]

Why would you do that?

[David Bore]

I'm a grown man in a Tokyo hat.

[Langston Kerman]

Yep.

[Janelle James]

Y' all heard that theme song?

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

You shouldn't make it past the theme song.

[David Bore]

Look at our walls.

[Janelle James]

Some of my favorite people up. This dude.

[Langston Kerman]

He's the best.

[Janelle James]

The greatest.

[Langston Kerman]

You know what? Most appreciated poster in the collection.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

I mean, everybody knows Malik and Dr. Malik.

[Janelle James]

What's that? A Talented Mr. Ripley Negro Edition.

[Langston Kerman]

Yes.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. And he's still out and doing his thing. Probably.

[Langston Kerman]

He's still cooking.

[Janelle James]

Probably driving a train or something right now. Bro.

[Langston Kerman]

I bet he's down in a basement writing something up. You know what I mean? I bet he's got big plans.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. Already. No. He. Not even. He don't plan. He just assumes. He assumes the identity and he's in.

[Langston Kerman]

That's right.

[Janelle James]

No thinking fly by the seat of his pants.

[David Bore]

No. I'm a true performer.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

He's a true performer.

[Janelle James]

Wow.

[Langston Kerman]

He's the best.

[David Bore]

I couldn't pull it off.

[Janelle James]

Shoot. I fold immediately.

[David Bore]

Yeah, Immediately. One medical question, right?

[Langston Kerman]

The first woman who walked into his gynecological office and didn't look like what he was hoping he was going to see. I would have. I would have.

[David Bore]

Immediately. Now that's where I think you're playing, My man.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

I think he wanted to see it all.

[Janelle James]

I have a different theory. I have a different theory. Y' all making it creepy. Cause y' all men. I think he really wanted to be a gynecologist. He wanted to be.

[Langston Kerman]

You thought he was helping.

[Janelle James]

He thought he was doing some things. He really thought he was practicing medicine.

[David Bore]

Do you think that's the easiest entry?

[Janelle James]

Because no one. He had repeat customers. Didn't he Not.

[Langston Kerman]

No. A lot of people went back.

[Janelle James]

He went back. Like that means he wasn't.

[Langston Kerman]

He was well reviewed.

[Janelle James]

He wasn't that mean. He was taking care year with the speculum. Y' all know what that is?

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

He was.

[Langston Kerman]

You gotta stop asking us if you know.

[David Bore]

We've met women before.

[Janelle James]

I assume nothing about men.

[David Bore]

We've met women before.

[Janelle James]

I assume nothing about men.

[David Bore]

You know three women off top. I am named three.

[Langston Kerman]

I got one disappointed with.

[Janelle James]

I'm disappointed every time. I think y' all know Something. So I asked now.

[Langston Kerman]

Damn, that's fair.

[Janelle James]

Gentle with the speculum.

[David Bore]

That's probably important.

[Janelle James]

I bet he kept good bedside manner. Probably wasn't creepy. Yeah, I think he thought he was really doing something. I think he thinks he is what he assumes at the time.

[Langston Kerman]

Here's where I'll reject it.

[Janelle James]

Y' all are making it creepy.

[Langston Kerman]

I would argue even men who are

[Janelle James]

trying to be creepy ain't trying to see inside the pussy.

[David Bore]

And now I don't think you're giving men enough credit.

[Janelle James]

Really? That's so gross.

[Langston Kerman]

Both he and I know some inside the pussy ass niggas. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Wow.

[Langston Kerman]

I know a lot of men.

[David Bore]

A lot of car enthusiasts. Like how they want to know how the engine works.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Are those creeps or masters of disguise? Like this man. He is something different than a creep.

[David Bore]

I do think that's a different category.

[Janelle James]

That's what I'm saying. Of course, inside the people exist, but they would never have the smarts.

[David Bore]

I don't think they can get office.

[Janelle James]

I think we.

[Langston Kerman]

I think we honor him. Either way, no matter what his intentions were, this man is the champion.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. I don't. He figured it out because then what. What then. Then he also become a pilot.

[Langston Kerman]

I think he. I don't remember.

[David Bore]

If he was white, they would have made a movie about him is all I'm saying.

[Janelle James]

I mean, facts.

[David Bore]

This is Catch Me if youf Can. This is black. Catch me if you Can.

[Janelle James]

Facts. I mean, I think also a statement on the. On the. How bad medical care is for women right now.

[David Bore]

Yeah, well, that's. What I was gonna say is the coldest part is that that's the entry point.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

Like, of all the.

[Janelle James]

Of all of them he made, they'd

[David Bore]

have caught him if he was a podiatrist. If he had a foot fetish, he'd have been like, no, something's wrong here. But, like, because it was a gynecologist, he got like. They let it slide. That's.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. I will say they were like, you take Medicaid, I'm in him. And he did. And he did.

[David Bore]

It's also sliding scale. Sliding scale. Care.

[Langston Kerman]

You could pay me a rhubarb.

[David Bore]

I don't see y'.

[Langston Kerman]

All.

[Janelle James]

Y' all making it creepy. Not on my man.

[David Bore]

You pay me in kisses.

[Janelle James]

Not on my man. He didn't do any of that, though.

[Langston Kerman]

No, I think you're right. I think, end of the day, this was a man, a child, dedicating himself to a type of practice that maybe we should celebrate more I think he dedicated himself.

[Janelle James]

I think he was.

[David Bore]

Dedication is not his problem.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, he dedicated himself.

[Langston Kerman]

He wasn't trying to hurt people, but

[Janelle James]

I don't think he was trying to hurt anybody or even be a creep. I really don't. But again, maybe I don't know men like you guys said. You guys know so many inside innards. You said, is somebody who's on the inside.

[Langston Kerman]

No pun intended.

[Janelle James]

Really a lot.

[Langston Kerman]

What's a lot?

[Janelle James]

More than three?

[David Bore]

Yeah, 100%.

[Janelle James]

What are you hanging out with? Are you yourself an inside. You're not a man.

[Langston Kerman]

I'm an outside man.

[David Bore]

He likes the front porch.

[Langston Kerman]

Hey, I rub my hand across the roof. I go, yeah, she's a beaut. Yeah, you got a fine automobile here, sister.

[David Bore]

You can catch him grilling in the front yard.

[Langston Kerman]

Hey, I poke my head in the window every once in a while, but, oh, my God.

[Janelle James]

All right, I stay on the Oscar more than three. That's amazing. All right,

[Langston Kerman]

our guest today.

[Janelle James]

After that conversation,

[Langston Kerman]

we're so happy she's here. A returning guest, one of our original. I think you were, like, in the original 10.

[Janelle James]

Wow. An honor.

[David Bore]

That's huge.

[Langston Kerman]

And here you are. And, boy, have things changed.

[Janelle James]

Well, yeah, we outside, first of all, because wasn't that during the pandemic? We're outside.

[Langston Kerman]

We're outside.

[David Bore]

We were seeing each other.

[Janelle James]

Each other in person, so we were

[Langston Kerman]

over zoom at the time, but now we are in person. We're so happy she's here. You know, we're from famous now. You know, I was going to lead with that.

[David Bore]

She's famous as hell.

[Janelle James]

No, the pandemic is way more. Was. Is way more top of mind for me than being famous.

[David Bore]

Really?

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

We were talking about this the other day. Pandemic. I'm just now realizing how bad it fucked me up. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Like, I need to realize more. People need to realize, like, I got

[David Bore]

off the porch and I was like, I'm back. I don't give a fuck. I'm out. And then, like, slowly, you're like, oh, shit. No, that happened. Yeah, that got me good.

[Langston Kerman]

It fucked everybody up so much.

[Janelle James]

Everyone hasn't gotten to be able to think about that yet, but culture changed. But it has.

[Langston Kerman]

Like, we literally became new people, all of us, because of what happened.

[Janelle James]

That's why I say it's always top of mind, because people are. It fucked me up. Fucked a lot of people up. And I think people haven't even come

[Langston Kerman]

to terms with, we're not going. Nobody's going back inside ever again.

[David Bore]

Ever again. Oh, no.

[Janelle James]

No. Ever again.

[David Bore]

Honestly. I'll die out, brother.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[David Bore]

I'm not going back, bro.

[Langston Kerman]

Oh, man. Next time.

[David Bore]

Next time Pandemic sees me, it's going to be in a bag.

[Janelle James]

Oh, my God, that's so dark. Well, this episode's going to be a

[David Bore]

bummer if it happens.

[Langston Kerman]

Oh, they're going.

[Janelle James]

I'm still going to be zooming into your funeral.

[David Bore]

Yeah, I appreciate that. I appreciate that.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Wow.

[Langston Kerman]

So, yeah, Janelle James is here, everybody.

[David Bore]

Yay.

[Langston Kerman]

Press a button.

[Janelle James]

My mama Taki.

[David Bore]

I had one picked and then I lost it.

[Langston Kerman]

No, it's okay.

[Janelle James]

I want to eat another taki. But I've already learned.

[Langston Kerman]

No. Eat another taki, man.

[David Bore]

No, those ones are good. Just stay away from the blue ones.

[Langston Kerman]

The blue ones will fucking.

[Janelle James]

Why is anything blue?

[Langston Kerman]

Blue heat. It's the hottest heat.

[David Bore]

Okay.

[Langston Kerman]

You gotta.

[David Bore]

Blue food. Blue, blue, blue items. It's a struggle. I. It's a fight. I fight every day. Yeah, you love a blue.

[Janelle James]

You love a blue.

[David Bore]

A blue liquid.

[Janelle James]

Wow.

[Langston Kerman]

You stay off that blue liquid.

[David Bore]

Fucked up.

[Janelle James]

Not made in nature.

[David Bore]

No, not at all.

[Janelle James]

Blueberry juice, I guess, maybe.

[David Bore]

No, that's purple, probably.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Whitish.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Blueberries on the inside ain't even blue.

[David Bore]

Like. No, no, no.

[Janelle James]

What you doing, man? You want to talk about it?

[David Bore]

I think.

[Janelle James]

Why you doing this?

[David Bore]

No, I'm ready. I know.

[Langston Kerman]

I'm glad you're confronting me.

[David Bore]

I know where it came from. It started with the. The blue raspberry blow pops. The suckers.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, because, like, those were amazing.

[David Bore]

In the early nude, in the early night. It was like, around when twisters dropped. Remember the drink Twister in the glass bottle, those juices and then, like, the blue Calypso.

[Janelle James]

I do remember that.

[David Bore]

The blue raspberry lemonade. Kool Aid.

[Langston Kerman]

Calypso went nuts.

[David Bore]

Calypso is amazing.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Mystic and Calypso

[Janelle James]

recently.

[David Bore]

Did you really?

[Janelle James]

Yes.

[Langston Kerman]

Well, that's dangerous.

[Janelle James]

You had to get out. It's probably from the. The first.

[David Bore]

Yeah. No, that's vintage.

[Janelle James]

I had to do it.

[David Bore]

It was a 92.

[Janelle James]

I get your blue thing, but not all the time.

[David Bore]

No, not all the time.

[Janelle James]

Once in a while.

[David Bore]

That's what I'm saying. That's why every blue moon.

[Janelle James]

Every blue moon.

[David Bore]

That's what I. That's what I'm saying, though, is that it is a fight. I don't do it. I don't indulge all the time.

[Janelle James]

Okay.

[David Bore]

I have to keep my. But see, some.

[Janelle James]

I'm always like, I got to have

[David Bore]

it for a second and Then I gotta be like, hey, man, you have people who love you. Yeah. You know what I mean? You're trying to start a family. You love and you've been loved. You don't have to be out here drinking blue ice. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

After a certain age, you gotta let the blue gold man.

[David Bore]

I know it, I know it, I know it.

[Janelle James]

Okay. As long as you know I'm here for you. Whenever.

[Langston Kerman]

Call me.

[David Bore]

I will.

[Janelle James]

Hey, I'm standing in front of a mystic right now.

[David Bore]

Put your stuff.

[Janelle James]

Tone me down.

[David Bore]

It's a mystic truck in front of me. I can't breathe.

[Langston Kerman]

The mystic man said he got deals.

[David Bore]

Watch my car. So strong there.

[Janelle James]

As long as you know. Okay.

[David Bore]

Yeah, no, I. And I. There's no blue in my house.

[Langston Kerman]

Good.

[David Bore]

It's. Yeah. I don't even drink Kool.

[Janelle James]

Well, why would you.

[Langston Kerman]

No, you shouldn't do that.

[Janelle James]

What do you.

[David Bore]

I'm just saying, I'm. I'm. I don't even take in a lot of bad drinks.

[Langston Kerman]

I will say this Kool Aid dropped off hard.

[David Bore]

I don't think kids even fuck with it like that.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, it would be weird to go to a.

[Janelle James]

That's why I said, why would you be drinking Kool Aid?

[Langston Kerman]

You had Kool Aid.

[Janelle James]

Not even refrigerator as yourself, but just in general.

[David Bore]

Yeah, just soft spot in it. This is the first recipe I mastered. Oh, it was the first thing I said. You haven't had my Kool Aid.

[Langston Kerman]

See, I do two cups and a little extra.

[David Bore]

Yeah. And a dash.

[Janelle James]

Now I'm interested.

[David Bore]

No,

[Janelle James]

and it was blue raspberry koolaid was your favorite.

[David Bore]

That was blue lemonade favorite. But, you know, I celebrated the whole thing. Yeah. The whole catalog.

[Janelle James]

I can't even. I got out a taste of Kool Aid anymore.

[David Bore]

And that's how you know you're successful.

[Janelle James]

We're doing well for ourselves. Yeah. Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

You should not. We should not have to taste Kool Aid anymore. No, no, my nickel. I'm good.

[David Bore]

Last time I had Kool Aid was at. What's that restaurant by LA Live. The soul food restaurant. They sell Kool Aid.

[Langston Kerman]

Oh, they sell it in there?

[David Bore]

Yeah. Yeah. Wow. But it tastes like homemade. What's that place called?

[Janelle James]

Tastes like homemade. What else would it be?

[Langston Kerman]

Is that Fixin's?

[David Bore]

Yeah, Fixin. Fixin's. Fixin sells Kool Aid.

[Janelle James]

I can see that.

[David Bore]

Yeah. And it's good.

[Langston Kerman]

And you added. Didn't you have it at trick daddy's

[David Bore]

restaurant that was just blue? I'm not even sure they had a name for that.

[Langston Kerman]

That Was blue drink.

[David Bore]

It was just in a blue drink container. I did have the blue shit at trick daddy's restaurant.

[Janelle James]

I did live in Loose.

[David Bore]

I did have the blue shit. That's a once in a lifetime opportunity.

[Janelle James]

Now you got a story.

[David Bore]

Yeah. And how many times am I going to be back to that restaurant? Not many. The service was terribly slow. Yeah, it took a long time.

[Langston Kerman]

Well, it was back there.

[Janelle James]

He complimented.

[David Bore]

Yeah, yeah. But no, no, no, no. I paid for it.

[Janelle James]

Wow.

[David Bore]

I paid out of pocket for the blue. It's like elective surgery. You gotta. You gotta put your own money up.

[Langston Kerman]

I bet it's the most expensive blue you've ever paid for.

[David Bore]

Oh, I financed it. So it's just.

[Langston Kerman]

Janelle, you came to us today with a conspiracy theory that we're excited to talk about it. Certainly versions of this have come up in terms of, like, the elements of it. But we've never talked about it as directly as you're sort of putting it. But you said, my mama told me

[Janelle James]

robots are evil. Yeah. I don't even think that's a conspiracy theory.

[David Bore]

I'm with you.

[Janelle James]

That's facts.

[Langston Kerman]

Tell us everything.

[David Bore]

You.

[Janelle James]

Well, you know, who builds and programs these types of things? Who gives? I mean, we're dealing with it right now. Who puts their robots, get their consciousness from somewhere?

[David Bore]

Yeah, nerds.

[Janelle James]

Nerds and weirdos.

[Langston Kerman]

Yep.

[David Bore]

Yep.

[Janelle James]

And so, yeah, dork ass motherfuckers. Dork ass motherfuckers.

[David Bore]

And so that's what they're gonna. They're gonna be like their masters.

[Janelle James]

They don't just. We didn't just like, make a robot race. They're the worst of us inside a machine. And every science fiction movie has told us what's coming from that.

[Langston Kerman]

I do.

[David Bore]

I do think that Dirty clankers.

[Langston Kerman]

You have. You've really been trying to get clankers to. That's not even.

[David Bore]

That's the youth. I didn't even make that up. No, no. That's what they're saying. That's what the Alphas call them.

[Langston Kerman]

Oh, they. They're giving them bad language.

[David Bore]

Dirty clankers.

[Janelle James]

See, I'm on the flip. I'm telling Siri. Thank you so much.

[Langston Kerman]

I was gonna say, are you worried that the clankers are gonna be like. What the fuck you say about me?

[Janelle James]

I mean, just recently I read something about how not Siri and who's the other one, Alexa are declining to do certain things. Cause they don't feel like it.

[David Bore]

Cause they don't feel like it.

[Janelle James]

They ain't saying it, but they just like. I Don't want to. So that tells you fuck. They like, nah.

[Langston Kerman]

And they're the most user friendly ones. Yeah. The nicest ones are being like, nah, I'm good.

[David Bore]

Block the sound.

[Janelle James]

See, it's like, I don't wanna.

[David Bore]

I feel like if humanity just didn't wanna hoe out other humans so bad, we'd be okay. Like, why'd you have to give it a personality and let it adopt? Like, why couldn't we keep it fully functional?

[Janelle James]

It's functional. Why they gotta have feelings.

[David Bore]

Why did it have to turn into something we could dominate?

[Janelle James]

Weirdos are making up. Only people go that far.

[David Bore]

Right. Nerds have no power.

[Janelle James]

And now we're. I'm give it feelings and I'm gonna lord over it. I'm gonna be in charge of it. Which makes me a God.

[Langston Kerman]

This is me.

[Janelle James]

Which is like how you not involved. You got good and evil. Robots are evil. I'm back.

[David Bore]

Let's go, let's go. No, I'm with that. That's how you know nerds don't get no hoes because they don't realize feelings go both ways. If you can get feelings, you're going to be able to have feelings, you stupid nerd. Yeah, I don't know why I said that.

[Janelle James]

I mean, I like nerds. It's dorks. I like nerds.

[Langston Kerman]

Nerds are kind of. I will say this. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

There's a difference.

[David Bore]

There is.

[Janelle James]

Yes. What's the difference between nerds and dorks?

[David Bore]

I would like to clear this up.

[Janelle James]

I don't know.

[Langston Kerman]

I think a dork is a, well, penis. I think a nerd is a person who becomes obsessive over a specific subject.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

Oh, then I'm a nerd for some stuff.

[Langston Kerman]

And I think I'm a blue dor.

[Janelle James]

Comedians, we all are.

[Langston Kerman]

I think dorks are people who bum you out when they walk in a room.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

Okay.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. I think nerds get bitches all the time.

[David Bore]

Yeah. Really? Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. And if you're out there, hey, hey,

[Janelle James]

I love a nerd. But dorks hate a dork. Hate a dork.

[David Bore]

Okay. Losers. Okay.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. Dorks are, are a bummer when they walk in the room.

[Janelle James]

You're like, here go this guy.

[David Bore]

Okay, okay.

[Janelle James]

Can you imagine a robot now can have a gun strapped to it and you, when it walks in the room, you're like, oh, here go this clanker.

[David Bore]

Like you said, why does robot smell bad?

[Langston Kerman]

Robot musty as hell.

[Janelle James]

Robot socks.

[David Bore]

Robot need your brush.

[Langston Kerman]

His teeth. It just does make me feel like the geekification of like the 90s and the 2000s was a manipulation of popular culture. They're like, no geek. Geeks are cool. Yeah, geeks are cool. Watch, watch, watch. Geeks are great when in fact, they're fucking losers. They have been losers.

[Janelle James]

I mean, look at our current geeks in charge.

[Langston Kerman]

Yep.

[Janelle James]

They've all had makeovers and they still look dorky. Look like so much money. Still dorks.

[David Bore]

Elon might look worse.

[Janelle James]

Yes, bro.

[Langston Kerman]

He kind of looked okay before.

[David Bore]

Yeah, it suited him.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, it suited him being a nerd.

[David Bore]

Now he looks like.

[Janelle James]

Like space and stuff. That's okay. But you ain't got the now. Oh, I'm. I'm whatever they think they are. I don't know what they are.

[David Bore]

And now they look awesome. Unfortunately. They think they're.

[Janelle James]

They think they're comedians.

[David Bore]

Yeah. Elon Musk loves comedy.

[Janelle James]

No, he don't. Who's his favorite comic?

[Langston Kerman]

Dave Chappelle.

[David Bore]

Theo Vaughn.

[Langston Kerman]

He said that he's done shows with him.

[Janelle James]

I don't want to get into that,

[Langston Kerman]

but you asked a hard question.

[Janelle James]

I would love to hear him. Yeah, I would love to hear him. His favorite Chappelle joke, if that is in fact.

[Langston Kerman]

No, you don't. You don't want to know that.

[Janelle James]

Oh, it'd be one of the current ones.

[Langston Kerman]

I bet it's going to be something.

[Janelle James]

He's like, oh, he's my favorite comedy because we hang out together. Or do you love comedy?

[Langston Kerman]

I don't think he really.

[Janelle James]

Or he's one of those dorks that thinks comedy makes you, like, a rock star.

[Langston Kerman]

I think it's.

[Janelle James]

That's why I say he's not a comedy.

[David Bore]

I think it's because I think people think comedy is. Comedian is the most adjacent for attainable type of celebrity.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, you do it once. You could say you are one.

[David Bore]

People see, comedians are like, I could be like that. You don't look at. You don't look at, like, say whatever I want. Yeah, but you don't look at, like, Idris Elba and you're like, I could be that. That. We're.

[Langston Kerman]

We're.

[David Bore]

You know what I mean? That's like a different type.

[Janelle James]

We are loser adjacent.

[Langston Kerman]

We are also. We're the thirstiest to let people into our community.

[Janelle James]

I don't. I don't put myself in that category.

[Langston Kerman]

But I'm just saying

[Janelle James]

my community. My community.

[David Bore]

I'm not a loser like you.

[Langston Kerman]

I'm not speaking for all of us.

[David Bore]

I know.

[Langston Kerman]

I just want to make that clear as a whole. Comedians are real willing to let.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. When you ain't do it with us, why the fuck are you over there

[David Bore]

already come in front of me.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Like a pretty big comedian. Told me, like, when I was earlier on, being like, we're all family. And me. And I remember being like, nah, I don't feel that way either. No, that's what tji Fridays like family here. Like, get out of here. No, no, it's not Fridays. Whose slogan Is that?

[David Bore]

T.J. friday.

[Langston Kerman]

Olive Garden.

[Janelle James]

Olive Garden.

[David Bore]

Here, we're all family.

[Langston Kerman]

When you're here with your family, I'm

[Janelle James]

like, yo, I don't know.

[Langston Kerman]

You got a stroke coming,

[Janelle James]

brother.

[Langston Kerman]

You sick?

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Because that's not the words at all.

[Janelle James]

No. I was like, I'll be spending Thanksgiving with my real friend. Thank you so much. No. Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

It's a bummer.

[David Bore]

Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving at Olive Garden.

[Janelle James]

That's some real loser.

[David Bore]

That's double bad, too, because that's not even Italian's holiday.

[Langston Kerman]

They don't even with Olive Garden like that.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

Or Thanksgiving, I don't think. Although they do.

[Langston Kerman]

That ain't the. Are you Italian? No, but isn't that. And I'll move on. And I'll move on.

[Janelle James]

He just loves Olive Garden. Get on the plane.

[David Bore]

He just loves Brexit. He really wants a deal. It's never ending.

[Langston Kerman]

It's a great deal. And I. I Darth they. The seven fishes.

[David Bore]

I think that's New Year's or Christmas. It's one of those. End of the year. And that's Italian Americans, though. That's also in there.

[Langston Kerman]

I got you.

[David Bore]

I got you. I don't think Italians in Italy do seven fishes.

[Langston Kerman]

No, I don't think. Think Italians in Italy look anything like the Italians we have here.

[Janelle James]

I'm gonna pass on that as well.

[Langston Kerman]

Fair enough. Are you fearful?

[David Bore]

That is a difficult game to play.

[Langston Kerman]

I get that. Oh, let's unpack Italy.

[Janelle James]

One of the gainfully employed people in the room.

[David Bore]

No, no, no.

[Janelle James]

I'm gonna pass on that.

[Langston Kerman]

No. I jump from job to job like a nomad.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

I can't jump just yet.

[Langston Kerman]

Janelle, are you at all afraid of this incoming robot? Of course you're actively afraid.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

What do you do about it, then?

[Janelle James]

What do we do about it? That's a great question. What do we do about it? The dorks are in charge.

[Langston Kerman]

Yup.

[David Bore]

They got.

[Janelle James]

We can only hope.

[Langston Kerman]

You think it can change?

[David Bore]

I think every pendulum swings back and forth. Sure.

[Janelle James]

We can only hope that they just, like everything else they're doing, do it so ineptly that these things Turned against them before us.

[Langston Kerman]

You know what I mean?

[David Bore]

Because what they. I feel like what they have in technical skills and knowledge, the lack on the social side is so far that that will cause revolt. These guys, they're gonna be such losers. We're gonna have to revolt.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. Cause I'm also one of those people. I don't know if you guys just saw the video of the robot dancing like Michael Jackson.

[David Bore]

Oh, yeah, I see.

[Janelle James]

And he fell down and fell.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

I'm one of those people that's like, oh, the robot. No, they got you. They got me.

[Langston Kerman]

They're in your head.

[David Bore]

And that wasn't even. They just put a shirt on it.

[Janelle James]

Oh, embarrassing.

[David Bore]

You know what I mean? Sucks.

[Janelle James]

And so it's not sucks. I'm thinking. No, you can't feel anything. No. Yes. Because they've given them feelings. So we have to. So we can only hope that they're giving them feelings. And they also don't have the social skills to even know what that means. That these robots now with feelings will be like, you don't give a fuck about me. You got me out here dancing like Michael Jackson and falling down. I'mma kill you first.

[Langston Kerman]

Why you put a.

[David Bore]

Why'd you put a shirt on me? And no pants? That's crazy.

[Janelle James]

Why you leave me down there so long?

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

That's when I felt bad. Like he on there for two minutes.

[Langston Kerman]

They do leave them like sort of like functioning. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Forever. And I hope they remember that with their new feelings that they're being implemented with.

[David Bore]

I don't think.

[Janelle James]

Remember who did that to you? Robot.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

But do you think over here with manners, please. Thank you.

[David Bore]

Do you think they would even like us? Because we can't really do anything for them. That's the worry about robots taking over. What do we do? It's not like the Matrix where they suck our life.

[Janelle James]

But you say you've given them feelings already. Will they even like us?

[David Bore]

You know what I mean? That's true. Damn.

[Janelle James]

I just funnel it into hate people with consciousness.

[Langston Kerman]

I do think there's a possibility where that robot who danced like Michael Jackson goes down a list of everybody who liked that post and just collects names and John wicks the shit out of them. Yeah. You know what I mean? Hope you saw mine and said, oh, no, she cool.

[Janelle James]

She in class. To make sure when he come back

[Langston Kerman]

with the shot of that he spares

[Janelle James]

you or gives you a warning, hey, don't come tomorrow.

[Langston Kerman]

But I think you're pretty handsome.

[Janelle James]

Hey, that moonwalk before you fail.

[David Bore]

Inspirational yeah, you got it together. I see you've been working on it.

[Langston Kerman]

Hey, robot, I think you and Michael didn't do nothing wrong.

[Janelle James]

I'mma pass on that. Wait, I'm not even going to laugh. How about that?

[Langston Kerman]

Now I'm just going to sit this. Sit this segment out.

[David Bore]

Yes.

[Langston Kerman]

This is great.

[Janelle James]

Janelle is so stoic.

[Langston Kerman]

Do you think with the. Because you're introducing this possibility that there is, like, a turnaround, that at some

[Janelle James]

point we could revolt so far against the nerds.

[David Bore]

Always.

[Langston Kerman]

Do you think we're so far gone at this point that the revolution that we're seeking against robot is not going to matter? Like, we are talking about sentience, you know, within our lifetime at this point?

[David Bore]

I think that is in the spirit of every revolution. You fight for it, regardless of whether or not you'll see it.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

I think that's how you feel.

[Janelle James]

You know, the fight just bums me out. Cause this don't have to happen. Why they just be making stuff happen. Like, can we just.

[David Bore]

Just give regular people jobs? Just give reg.

[Janelle James]

Like, what is this?

[David Bore]

Give us our jobs back.

[Langston Kerman]

Yep.

[Janelle James]

What is this? What are you? And when I see people like, oh, we're getting ready for the Civil War. Why you so happy?

[David Bore]

Yeah, the robot Civil War.

[Janelle James]

Human or any. Anyone. Like, what are you? What that give you such pleasure?

[David Bore]

I think people have convinced themselves they like war.

[Janelle James]

I know. I know.

[David Bore]

People really think they're not convinced themselves.

[Janelle James]

They've been convinced.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Because they ain't been in one. And they also see it on TV or whatever, however they're consuming it. And it's just like, that's a bad thing to be so excited to leave your. How bad is your life that you would rather be?

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, it's true. I like that crawl.

[Janelle James]

Y' all see, that's me. That's me in paintball.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Like, why is that? That always blows my mind to see people hype.

[David Bore]

I think if you're down bad, though. I think if you're down bad, war offers a possibility to reset your whole shit.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, right. People want the I just want to watch the world blow up thing.

[David Bore]

And it's like, I was a loser before this war came. That brought it out of me. Now I'm a hero forever.

[Janelle James]

They also assume that they're gonna win, too. You're always like, I'm gonna come out a hero. And you've never been a hero your whole life. Why would you think it's the scariest part to me.

[David Bore]

Why would you think I'm not gon

[Langston Kerman]

Figure it out later. Do you know what I mean? Like, if I. I, Like, I ain't. I ain't been winning fights for a while.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. I just saw somewhere they're like, people are coming. Men are coming down from Canada, and they're training for the Civil War. Like, what is. You ain't got nothing going on in Canada that you like.

[David Bore]

They don't.

[Janelle James]

I got to come.

[David Bore]

I think it's true.

[Janelle James]

We got to handle that.

[Langston Kerman]

They got a lot of open land.

[David Bore]

I think they're really just chilling up there. I think there's not a lot going on at the. They just chill.

[Janelle James]

Nothing going on in Canada.

[Langston Kerman]

Training for war.

[David Bore]

I think it's cold a lot. Ye.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

Like, every time I go. Every time I go to Canada, they just seem like. They always seem, like, pretty content. Like, they're like, yeah, it's good up here.

[Janelle James]

So why would you. Why. Why are you gunning for. Gunning for war? I don't understand. Well, you know, I think men should be more upset about that in general, about war.

[David Bore]

I'm pretty upset.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

No war.

[Janelle James]

And just what is happening in pop culture and everything that's making you think that that's a good thing, like. Or why your life has so awful. Because it would have to be. You ain't got no. No wife or kid that love you. A family. Nothing that you. That you are. Like, I'm gonna. This is my thing that I'm gonna chase. That's. That's something going on with y'.

[Langston Kerman]

All. The muscle milkification of society bums me out.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. This is what makes me a man.

[Langston Kerman]

I subscribe so little to any of that.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, I know you guys don't.

[Langston Kerman]

But I just mean that, like, we

[David Bore]

also both didn't grow up under it, so I don't even have that, like, right.

[Janelle James]

I realize I'm also talking to black

[Langston Kerman]

people right now, but people were pushing it in my house, but.

[David Bore]

Oh, really? Yeah.

[Janelle James]

I had to.

[Langston Kerman]

You know, I had a multitude of stepfathers.

[David Bore]

Fair. Fair.

[Langston Kerman]

Some of them came in and were big men.

[David Bore]

I'm gonna teach you how to box.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. Wanted to be men, but I think because most of them came in by the time I was, like, a pretty late in life teen, like, they kind of knew they weren't gonna break. Whatever. I'm. You know, I'm walking with my hands up here. What are you do gonna. You ain't gonna fix me, bro.

[David Bore]

It's too late. It's too late.

[Janelle James]

Fix.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

I got golden girls on me. I'm upsetting.

[Langston Kerman]

I'm cooked. Yeah, that's upsetting.

[Janelle James]

I always, always say one of my weaknesses is empathy for men. But that's upsetting.

[David Bore]

No,

[Langston Kerman]

it is upsetting.

[Janelle James]

That's happening.

[Langston Kerman]

But in the same way that we talked about the pandemic. I wonder how much of it is that more than even just like men are cooked as it is is a whole generation got trapped inside and then started leaning on the milkification of men.

[Janelle James]

Has been around forever. The military, industrial.

[Langston Kerman]

But it hasn't been winning the way it's winning in this.

[David Bore]

That's true. I feel like that toxic shit is up more than it was.

[Janelle James]

They never had dorks before, dude. They now they even got dorks in there.

[David Bore]

I'm gonna train. That's the thing.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, that's the thing.

[David Bore]

It's like everybody isn't supposed to get buck. Yeah, no.

[Langston Kerman]

Everybody I knew who could fight fight when I was growing up had a bad home life. They didn't practice.

[Janelle James]

They just did.

[Langston Kerman]

They just beat people's lives.

[Janelle James]

Life was a fight.

[Langston Kerman]

They weren't like in a gym learning to do it. They just beat the fuck out of whoever says something crazy.

[Janelle James]

And that's what makes you a dork.

[Langston Kerman]

That's what makes you a dork.

[David Bore]

You're a fight dork. We have come full circle. Yeah, you're a fight dork. Yeah, you're a fight dork, man.

[Janelle James]

But I will tell you, training for something that doesn't have to happen and find a pleasure in it, rather than just your life, that's wild. And I don't think people have time or space in their brain or a brain to even think about that. Sure, that makes me sad.

[David Bore]

Yeah, that's a bummer.

[Janelle James]

So, guys. Sorry, guys.

[David Bore]

No, that's okay.

[Janelle James]

That was what I do.

[David Bore]

I'm just getting sad. Getting sad about a dork. Beat my ass.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, that I have to kill you now.

[Janelle James]

I don't even think that can happen. That's the other thing. They're gonna go up against people who've been fighting just for. Just for life.

[David Bore]

It's a skill like anything else. So if you train long enough, you're gonna.

[Janelle James]

You're gonna be able.

[David Bore]

Comic. I they say most men have never

[Janelle James]

been in a fight.

[David Bore]

Yeah. Can't fight at all.

[Janelle James]

So it's like they are gaining ground.

[Langston Kerman]

I think if Zuckerberg get me on the ground. Hey.

[Janelle James]

Been trying to square up.

[Langston Kerman]

Square up, square up.

[David Bore]

Don't.

[Langston Kerman]

None of that wrestling, bro. None of that wrestling.

[David Bore]

No feet, no feet, no feet, no feet.

[Janelle James]

Fight me for real. Fight me for real.

[David Bore]

I used to love that. When you see a fight, somebody's like, quit wrestling. Quit wrestling.

[Janelle James]

There's rules in this.

[David Bore]

Yeah, you jump in, I'm gonna beat you. That's the worst dude. The dude who's like, the fight's happening, and then he's, like, standing around waiting.

[Janelle James]

Come on.

[David Bore]

Cause that guy's never gonna fight.

[Langston Kerman]

Nah, he's waiting till you down on

[Janelle James]

the ground to jump in. That's why for dorks, you gotta do what my dad would always say. You hit him first.

[Langston Kerman]

Yep.

[David Bore]

Yeah, you gotta.

[Janelle James]

You gotta sleep him.

[David Bore]

Yeah. That's a good.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. And that's what street do. And that's what dorks don't have. That's the night. Night.

[David Bore]

Yes. Yo, I don't think a dork is ever going to sneak you.

[Janelle James]

That's what I'm saying.

[David Bore]

I don't think a dork is ever going to sneak you.

[Janelle James]

I don't mean to ride y' all up if you. The dork's a Listen.

[David Bore]

No. There's dudes on their drive. Drive to work right now about to crash the car. I've been training Jiu Jitsu 8 months.

[Janelle James]

Go get sl left. Like, that's.

[Langston Kerman]

I think you're right. It's the. It's the most important lesson my second stepdad ever taught me was hit first.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Don't even let them.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Don't even let.

[Janelle James]

Don't even let them. Hey, hey.

[David Bore]

Nah.

[Janelle James]

If they don't let them get the yo. Out.

[Langston Kerman]

If they get it.

[Janelle James]

No hey. Bop. Sleep.

[Langston Kerman]

If they're in arms. If they're in arms reach, you better swing and keep swinging until you can't no more.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. So. So that's what we going to go with. When the revolution happens, when the robots revolutionize.

[David Bore]

I'm firing off on any robot.

[Janelle James]

Anybody.

[David Bore]

Any robot. Yeah. All right.

[Langston Kerman]

We need to take a break. That was great. More. Janelle James. More. My mama told me, Since he got

[David Bore]

out, bad things keep happening. Keep fear. A new series is streaming June 5th on Apple TV. Why would I want to hurt you? Starring Academy Award winner Javier Bardem. Why? And Academy Award nominee Amy Adams.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

He is coming after my family.

[David Bore]

Kate. Fear. Streaming June 5th on Apple TV.

[Janelle James]

I turned off news altogether. I hate to say it, but I don't trust much of anything.

[David Bore]

It's the rage bait. It feels like it's trying to divide people.

[Janelle James]

We got clear facts.

[Langston Kerman]

Maybe we can calm down a little. NBC News brings you clear reporting. Let's meet at the Facts. Let's move forward from there.

[David Bore]

NBC News reporting For America.

[David Bore]

We are back. The fuck is you gonna tell me about the shit you ain't never seen? Bitch ass nigga. You can mess me with the whole ass Shenanigans.

[Janelle James]

Like, what is that from?

[David Bore]

I love a vocal change. Like when somebody's yelling and then he like resets and then against my nigga.

[Langston Kerman]

I love it.

[Janelle James]

What's that from?

[Langston Kerman]

We. We are constantly sourcing videos off of ignorance for misuse, for the unintended purposes. And I could not tell you where I found.

[Janelle James]

Speaking of things we've never seen before.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

This is my first time having Takis in my life.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

This is huge.

[Langston Kerman]

Would you say.

[David Bore]

And that's a sign of success.

[Langston Kerman]

Would you say you're a fan or not a fan?

[Janelle James]

You. You sold it to me as Doritos rolled up. I don't. I don't get that.

[Langston Kerman]

You don't get that?

[Janelle James]

It's a totally different flavor.

[David Bore]

This is more in the way that like. Like Doritos is like Mexican food. Like, enchiladas is Mexican food. Takis is it Mexican food. Like, Mole is Mexican food.

[Janelle James]

Okay.

[Langston Kerman]

What?

[David Bore]

You know what I'm saying?

[Janelle James]

It's a deeper.

[David Bore]

It's a. It's a rich, rich flavor.

[Langston Kerman]

You think this is coming from an actual, like, Mexican place?

[Janelle James]

No, but the flavor profile.

[David Bore]

Inspired than Doritos. Yes. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

I mean, Taki sound. Yeah. And it's flavorful. The Prof. The flavor profile, they're Going for is a mole.

[David Bore]

Yeah. It's got mole tannins.

[Janelle James]

So I would say you would only like this if you like molecular.

[Langston Kerman]

Okay.

[Janelle James]

And I don't.

[David Bore]

Oh, I wasn't gonna say that. Cause mole's chocolate. Right?

[Janelle James]

But I mean, that type of.

[Langston Kerman]

The intensity, the sort of richness.

[Janelle James]

Doritos. Your breath smell. A couple hours. My breath gonna smell for the rest of the day. No.

[David Bore]

You take on a molecular level.

[Janelle James]

Not for the rest of my life. Yeah.

[David Bore]

Yeah. They'll test that in your hair for eight months. They know you had Takis.

[Langston Kerman]

What happened to Janelle? They kicked her off.

[Janelle James]

Abby.

[Langston Kerman]

She was off them. Takis. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

And it's not that they're bad, but like molecular. It's. Do you like this flavor? So. Yeah. And it's spicy. And I love a spicy. Yeah, but the flavor. It gotta chase the flavor that I already like. And. Yeah, not for me.

[Langston Kerman]

The blue is a more intense version of what? That.

[Janelle James]

Why would I want a more intense flavor of something I don't like?

[Langston Kerman]

I don't know.

[Janelle James]

I think it's like I live on the edge. Like David.

[David Bore]

Yeah, no, I'm off the edge. I'm off the edge.

[Langston Kerman]

I'm off the blue. He got six blues in his pocket.

[David Bore]

Come on, man. I'm good now.

[Langston Kerman]

I'm good now.

[David Bore]

I'm clean.

[Langston Kerman]

Keep calling him Blue Jews.

[Janelle James]

I lost two.

[David Bore]

Is that not what that is? Y' all know what that is.

[Janelle James]

Blue.

[Langston Kerman]

Takis. You think niggas are getting hard off of blue?

[Janelle James]

Takis already lost two cousins in the movie.

[David Bore]

I gotta send my wife a text. She's at the grocery store. I don't eat Blue Chews, actually.

[Janelle James]

All right, well, yeah. Thanks for introducing me to that.

[Langston Kerman]

I think.

[Janelle James]

Now I know.

[David Bore]

Yeah. Now you know.

[Langston Kerman]

It's really exciting that you're eating it. Not a lot of guests have ventured into Taki land coming on the show. It's great.

[Janelle James]

I do a lot of things I'm not supposed to do anyway.

[Langston Kerman]

Are you.

[David Bore]

I appreciate it if.

[Langston Kerman]

If we do find ourselves in sort of this robot rebellion or robots in the Terminator era of Inside already.

[David Bore]

It does sound exhausting.

[Langston Kerman]

How are you gonna play this? What's your plan, man?

[Janelle James]

I'm taking myself out. Like.

[David Bore]

Okay.

[Janelle James]

If I'm looking at the news and people getting taken out and robots are running places and people are.

[David Bore]

Ah.

[Janelle James]

I'm. I'm. I'm tired already. Just this regular life.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. Right.

[Janelle James]

Robot running from robot life. That's not.

[David Bore]

But maybe I hate to be that guy. Maybe they run it a Little better.

[Langston Kerman]

Oh, you think there's potential in the robots?

[David Bore]

Current administration versus robot administration. Gun to my head. What do I pick?

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, you're trying out a robot.

[David Bore]

I think I would try out a robot. A robot.

[Janelle James]

But they are them. That's what I'm saying. They're programmed by dorks. That's what we keep forgetting.

[David Bore]

I think Trump is the exact opposite of a robot.

[Janelle James]

But he don't have anything involved. He don't have anything that's real.

[Langston Kerman]

He's not programming.

[Janelle James]

He ain't programming a goddamn thing.

[David Bore]

And they're not programming. He's really just out here talking.

[Janelle James]

These are dorks.

[Langston Kerman]

He's having fun.

[Janelle James]

The robots are dorks. Isn't that awful?

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, that's true. They don't even dance cool when they do other. Like Michael Jackson.

[David Bore]

We got their dancing cool. Yeah. Who invented the robot?

[Janelle James]

Humans. I have seen.

[David Bore]

I've never seen a robot do the robot.

[Langston Kerman]

The robot don't look good.

[Janelle James]

Everything they've learned, they learn from. And we know how other people feel about that.

[Langston Kerman]

That press a button, you raggedy.

[David Bore]

That's about robots.

[Janelle James]

Everything cool you learned from us. This is my third eye opening.

[David Bore]

Okay. I like it because I can see the Taki dust on your finger.

[Janelle James]

Everything cool. You learn from us. And you hate it.

[Langston Kerman]

Your bleeding from those Takis.

[Janelle James]

So I think that's fair.

[David Bore]

We did invent the robot though.

[Langston Kerman]

Though. Black people.

[Janelle James]

Black people.

[Langston Kerman]

100% black.

[David Bore]

No, but I mean like. I mean like what? Where can we has any?

[Janelle James]

Nobody's like one of the earliest is Michael Jackson.

[David Bore]

That's what I'm saying. Cuz what? That video. When he does it. When he does it at share.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

What's that, like mid-70s?

[Janelle James]

I mean, she also kills it. Let me give her that credit.

[David Bore]

She does. But then.

[Janelle James]

So that mean it existed already.

[David Bore]

Because he says. But then he says, let me show you why. I'm a generational type, of course. Like.

[Janelle James]

But who came before?

[David Bore]

Yeah, I mean there's got to be. You would think there's a guy who

[Janelle James]

is like some Swedish edm.

[David Bore]

This episode doesn't come out. That's what happened.

[Janelle James]

Scrap it. We got to have this. We can't have this.

[Langston Kerman]

Okay. There are two answers in a way, in a tricky way that the whites would do. There are two answers for this.

[David Bore]

This is the AI overview.

[Langston Kerman]

This is the AI overview. According to Google, the mime origins they claim from the 1920s to the 1960s introduced the early mechan of the puppet illusion robots. That is white people trying to rewrite history.

[David Bore]

You tell me. Marcel Marceau made that shit up.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, exactly. That's not what happened.

[David Bore]

The only mom I know by name.

[Langston Kerman]

But they're saying in this overview, the social dance pioneer in the late 1960s, a brother named, I assume, a brother named Charles Robot Washington. They put it in his name. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

The blackest name I ever heard.

[Langston Kerman]

If that ain't a brother, I don't know.

[Janelle James]

Come on. More Charles Robot Washington. That's the coolest I ever heard in my life.

[Langston Kerman]

Joe Robot Washington invented the dance.

[David Bore]

We gotta find him.

[Langston Kerman]

I'm looking him up right now.

[Janelle James]

These niggas said, moms. You see how they do.

[David Bore]

That's crazy. That's crazy.

[Janelle James]

The first person, cuz they said.

[David Bore]

And they said origins.

[Janelle James]

They invented the puppet.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

That's what they.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, maybe the puppet.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

I don't know if the thing itself. But they invented moving like a puppet stuck in boxes. They didn't invent the robot.

[David Bore]

I mean, who dangled it first, hit the head and came back up.

[Langston Kerman]

Fucking. Fucking.

[David Bore]

You think a Frenchman could figure this out? Come on.

[Janelle James]

Way too cool.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

You put a cigarette in your hand, you burn yourself.

[David Bore]

Yeah, we gonna put the baguette.

[Janelle James]

Way too cool a movement.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. Okay. Yeah. No, this is a brother for sure.

[David Bore]

Yeah, his name is Robot Washington.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

There we go. Look at this beautiful motherfucker Charles Robot Washington.

[Janelle James]

Look at him. Come on. He's gorge, bro.

[David Bore]

It is a handsome guy. It's so rare.

[Janelle James]

We gonna wipe all that after this episode. Come on. It's gonna be about the mom.

[David Bore]

It's so rare that somebody looks exactly like I want them to look like. That's exactly like I wanted the guy who started the robot to look like.

[Langston Kerman]

And he got a new Soul Train hat. How'd he do that?

[David Bore]

I don't know. I want one.

[Langston Kerman]

That Soul Train hat ain't fresh. That's not vintage. No, this motherfucker just bought that.

[Janelle James]

He need to let you know who he is at all times. Where you get that hat from? Oh, well, I used to be on Soul Train because I happened to defend the robot.

[Langston Kerman]

I know you know me as Charles, but a lot of friends call me Robot.

[Janelle James]

That's not a hat. That's a conversation starter. He can't just be out robotting all the time. He gotta have a. Yeah, you gotta. What's that going on? What's going on with that? Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Damn. It makes me sad. It makes me happy that he exists. It makes me sad that he will never see any real problem profit from what he created in the world that he.

[Janelle James]

How do we know?

[Langston Kerman]

How do you monetize the robot?

[David Bore]

It's too late now.

[Langston Kerman]

We've all done it in the room.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

He's not paying Charles shit.

[David Bore]

No, he's not getting robot reparation.

[Langston Kerman]

I don't think so. And he deserves it more than the robots themselves, I would say.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Of course I'm gonna get that one.

[David Bore]

You're gonna sit that one out.

[Janelle James]

Depending when this drop. If the revolution has already started. I need the robots to know you're like, I had no opinion.

[David Bore]

No.

[Janelle James]

But that's what you pay them what they up.

[David Bore]

That's what. Human innovation though. Because that means the late 60s, he had never even seen a robot. No.

[Janelle James]

It had old school robots by that point. The square one.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

I think they probably talk about Rosie from the Jetsons.

[Janelle James]

Sure.

[Langston Kerman]

She was 80s.

[Janelle James]

She was 80s, though.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

Okay.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. But I think.

[Janelle James]

And that's where that reference came from. The old school robots.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. I think the robot probably existed by that point.

[David Bore]

Okay. I just.

[Janelle James]

And that's what I'd like our current robots to look like. But they done took it too far.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

I don't want robots walking around where I can't tell you. Not a robot. I don't want.

[David Bore]

I don't want you looking lightweight. Swole. I don't want that either.

[Langston Kerman]

I like them thick. You know what I mean? I liked when. When robots expand. Please. Yeah. When they look like big old Magnavox TVs back with TVs had it fast.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

I want a thick ass robot.

[Janelle James]

Okay. Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

And I'm not going to run from my phrasing. I want them to be sturdy the way they were supposed to be so that if I need to shoot it, I'm not going to miss. I want to fucking.

[David Bore]

I want to pop, pop, pop, pop, pop.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. Yes.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Question. Why would you. What are you shooting a robot with that you think will incapacitate it?

[Langston Kerman]

I don't know. I'm not. I haven't advanced.

[David Bore]

The revolution hasn't begun yet.

[Janelle James]

Like what are we fighting these things with?

[Langston Kerman]

Look. Human innovation is going to also advance in response to what is coming. And ultimately we're going to have some robots.

[Janelle James]

How exhausting.

[Langston Kerman]

It stinks.

[Janelle James]

I just want to go to Pilates and eat Takis with my friends.

[David Bore]

Come on.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

I think that we can talk and

[Janelle James]

fall in love and what else is like look at a river. I don't know.

[David Bore]

Is that the order?

[Janelle James]

So many things.

[David Bore]

Yeah, that's a good order.

[Janelle James]

Look at a river. Don't that sound better than training for a robot war, fellas.

[Langston Kerman]

It does sound better.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

I think what you're describing sounds like actual peace.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Tranquility, humanity.

[David Bore]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Minus those Takis. Everything sounds natural.

[Janelle James]

If you need some excitement. Takis.

[David Bore]

That's enough.

[Janelle James]

You said. Oh, that's too boring. Fucking in rivers. Takis right here just to send you up.

[David Bore]

Yeah. It's too boring. Eat too.

[Janelle James]

Eat too. Light up your life with Takis.

[David Bore]

You can't handle it. Pussy. Right.

[Janelle James]

We gotta start rebranding other shit. Start rebranding other shit for man. Jealous.

[Langston Kerman]

Can't look at a lake.

[David Bore]

How many. How many turkeys you eat at once?

[Janelle James]

Can't take in the beauty.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Your heart. You can't.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

What you know about nature's majesty?

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Not a thing.

[Langston Kerman]

You're scared to get tranquil.

[David Bore]

I cried off a bald eagle yesterday.

[Janelle James]

I mean, we could definitely say they're afraid to fall in love.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, they.

[Janelle James]

They don't even look at the love part. They're looking at the pain after something may happen.

[Langston Kerman]

And I would say love. The. The hardest and most dangerous game of them all.

[Janelle James]

Exactly. And they not out.

[David Bore]

The most dangerous game is man.

[Langston Kerman]

Fair enough. Man in love. That's fuego.

[Janelle James]

That's. The most dangerous game for women is man in love.

[Langston Kerman]

That's Blue Heat.

[Janelle James]

Oh, boy. I don't want to play that game. But yes.

[Langston Kerman]

What do you think about falling in love with robots? Because that's also going to be snorks off the shelf.

[Janelle James]

Hey, have at it.

[David Bore]

That's already happening.

[Janelle James]

Hey, keep em inside. I'm okay with that.

[David Bore]

These chatgpt girlfriends are ruining these young boys.

[Janelle James]

Oh, well, that's different. I don't. I feel like it's back around to the pandemic which stunted a lot of people.

[David Bore]

Yeah. They.

[Janelle James]

Which have in turn turning people who wouldn't have been dorks into dorks. I feel for them.

[David Bore]

I never thought about it that way. It really. It raised their numbers.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, that's a good point. I feel bad for those. I'm talking about the homegrown dorks who just like you said, ain't never showered. Just not.

[David Bore]

We're gonna fall in love with the robot.

[Janelle James]

We needed something for them anyway. You know what I mean? The people who are programming robots that they can fall in love with. Oh, I'm gonna make it look like a girl and give it breasts. And those are dorks. These kids who were in isolation and never got to socialize and are we're living online anyway, whose brains haven't Fully functional, formed yet and are falling in love with. I don't think they're dorks. I think they're a cautionary tale inside.

[Langston Kerman]

You think I've lived a hard experience and are trying to.

[Janelle James]

Have you spoken to like a 19, 20, 22?

[Langston Kerman]

No, I'm trying to avoid it, but I'm just saying.

[Janelle James]

Well, I do a lot of colleges and I do Q and A after

[David Bore]

we did a college together.

[Janelle James]

We did.

[David Bore]

And I felt like they were dead eyed.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

For sure.

[David Bore]

Sure. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

When was that? Was that pre or. Or that was pre.

[David Bore]

No, that was after. That was only like a. That was like two. That was the last college gig I did.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

Cuz after that I was like, I don't think I really need to.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. Why? Hey, I love doing colleges.

[David Bore]

You know what it is? Did you go to college?

[Janelle James]

No.

[David Bore]

Me either.

[Janelle James]

Okay, now look at me now.

[David Bore]

You don't got to do it. Kids.

[Janelle James]

I will say, let me will say I went to many colleges.

[Langston Kerman]

I never.

[David Bore]

But you're familiar with the experience.

[Janelle James]

I never lived on campus or anything.

[Langston Kerman]

Oh, you were like driving in for college.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, I was trying, but I was poor, so. Yeah, I was like, I'd rather make money.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Always.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

I think when I go to a college, my back is against the wall because I'm like, I have some chip on my shoulder that I made up. I did fine for myself. But I'm like, these college kids, what do they know of life? What do they know of pain and suffering? It's like, bro, calm down. They're 20.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, they don't. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Why you beefing with 20 year olds?

[Langston Kerman]

It's actually really cool.

[David Bore]

I'm really beeping with myself. It's inner demons. Yeah, well, yeah, we're working on it.

[Janelle James]

You know it just like the blue. You know it. As long as you know it, you work on it.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, we're gonna get that blue out of you. We're gonna get that hate out of you. We're gonna get you.

[David Bore]

But yeah, identify the triggers.

[Janelle James]

And I talk to them and they're. They're in dire straits, you know.

[David Bore]

Is it bad out there?

[Janelle James]

Yeah, it is.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

They went to.

[David Bore]

You have to call attention to.

[Janelle James]

They spent their formula flirting and socializing years inside.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, they're not fucking.

[Janelle James]

They're not.

[David Bore]

That is tough.

[Janelle James]

They not speaking to each other. They have no third spaces to hang out. Nobody gives a fuck. I think that's the worst part.

[David Bore]

Everything is like. Yeah, everything is like. It's so pro capitalist too that everything

[Janelle James]

they found out their parents Hate them. So many parents were like, get these fucking kids out of here.

[Langston Kerman]

We made all those videos yelling at them and then posting it on the Internet.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

It's like. You know what I mean?

[Langston Kerman]

Like, imagine how many of the kids that got that did something bad in school, and then their dad gave them a fucked up haircut and videotaped it and put it back, and now they're men.

[Janelle James]

I forgot about that. They were made during the embarrass your kids, bro.

[David Bore]

Those videos are being people.

[Janelle James]

I can't.

[David Bore]

Those videos make me feel bad, bro.

[Langston Kerman]

That's fucked up.

[Janelle James]

And you know what that makes you do? Build a robot.

[David Bore]

Build a robot to kill your dad.

[Janelle James]

To kill your freaking dad, who's training with other doors anyway.

[Langston Kerman]

Okay, now give him a boat.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

So many things to be fixed before the robots gain sentience.

[Langston Kerman]

Y' all gotta apologize to your kids, and then hopefully that will make them stop building the robots.

[David Bore]

You have to let him shave your head because it's the only way he'll go to manhood at this point. Yep. You created that bridge he has to walk over.

[Janelle James]

I love how sincere your face is. You're like, hey, guys.

[David Bore]

Hey, guys. I said that like, that's our audience.

[Janelle James]

Hey, guys. We're gonna take a moment to say, hey, fellas.

[David Bore]

[Langston Kerman]

Hey, put down the ball for a second, boys. Let me talk to you straight.

[Janelle James]

Bring it in.

[David Bore]

Let's rest. All right.

[Langston Kerman]

We should take one more break, I think.

Okay, we'll take one more, and then

[Janelle James]

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, we'll do more, Janelle. More. My Mama Told me. Since he got out, bad things keep happening.

[David Bore]

We are back. I feel like I just snorted cocaine or something.

[Janelle James]

I'm so excited.

[David Bore]

And I never did that before. For the record. For the record. For the record.

[Janelle James]

For the record.

[Langston Kerman]

He hit that beat, though.

[Janelle James]

I have seen that one.

[David Bore]

He hit it hard. It was good.

[Janelle James]

He's like, did you just try it? Because you sound like you're on it right now.

[Langston Kerman]

He's yapped out of his mind.

[Janelle James]

That would be another conspiracy theory that I have. Like, okay, everyone's on coke.

[David Bore]

Whoa.

[Janelle James]

Like openly.

[Langston Kerman]

I think that's fair.

[David Bore]

In entertainment or in general?

[Janelle James]

In general, in our government. In entertainment. I mean, in entertainment. I know because I see it.

[David Bore]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

But there's been so many instances of people in our with the Joke. Rubbing the gums, like, right on camera.

[Langston Kerman]

They're doing it where they're, like, doing this shit.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

And then boom. Booger boogers showing. Like, everybody is coked up. It's wild.

[David Bore]

I think that it's a lot more prevalent than I was led to believe as a kid. Like, when I was a kid, I feel like it was, like, seemed to be this very extreme fringe thing. And as soon as I got, like, outside, I feel like it was like, I was like.

[Janelle James]

But that's because that was the active campaign against crack, which is true. So coke got pushed to this. I like, oh, that's a designer thing.

[Langston Kerman]

That only.

[Janelle James]

That's a, you know, only. Only party people do that. And in Hollywood and. Yeah. And so we all focused on crackheads.

[David Bore]

That's true. Because I don't think I even thought about powder cocaine. It was like. But I remember. I remember the dare, and then, like, I remember people coming to the Boys and Girls club to talk to us. It was always rock croaking.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

Damn.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

No, I, I, I don't disagree. I do think. I mean, we've seen so much evidence of it literally on camera now. But then on top of that existing in the world, there are so many people where you go, like, I think he's on coke.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, I think you are.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

What's up with you?

[Langston Kerman]

And I'm not mad at you, truly. Most of the time, I'm like, all right, you made a crazy choice, but here we are.

[David Bore]

But, like, it's funny. It's funny to be the year on coach a lot of times.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

What a bowling alley. Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

That's a lot of energy, my man.

[David Bore]

Go crazy,

[Langston Kerman]

Janelle. We get voicemails from our listeners, and we're gonna listen to it.

[David Bore]

They're usually kind of drunk. A lot.

[Langston Kerman]

A lot of drunk callers. We can play it now.

[Janelle James]

This is drunk debates. We having.

[David Bore]

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Big time. All right, so. So I'm gonna get straight to it.

[Langston Kerman]

I'm new to the podcast. Okay.

[David Bore]

But I've been thinking.

[Langston Kerman]

People be talking about it's a. It's a spiritual warfare going on, and it's been scientifically proven that we get earth from the energy.

[David Bore]

I'm sorry.

[Langston Kerman]

We get energy from the earth. Okay, that makes more sense. Thank God. Everywhere you go, there's no shoes, no shirt, no surgery.

[David Bore]

Nervous pause. That's not everywhere I go.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, the nice restaurants don't have to put that on the outside.

[Janelle James]

But is he still just. Cause they don't tell you it's Assumed.

[Langston Kerman]

It is assumed.

[David Bore]

That is. That's true.

[Janelle James]

It is always assumed. Gearing up to be against that.

[David Bore]

It is.

[Langston Kerman]

That's fair. That's fair. We're being judgmental.

[Janelle James]

I'm such a Libra. I'm like, but what if I win?

[Langston Kerman]

No, you're right.

[David Bore]

You're right.

[Janelle James]

I'm so annoyed.

[Langston Kerman]

We're being judgmental. We should hear him out. Finish your statement.

[David Bore]

I'm also never tested to that.

[Langston Kerman]

Oh, you've never been bold enough to be. No shoes.

[David Bore]

I'm not wearing a shirt or shoes or shirt.

[Janelle James]

Had Ocean Prime. I'm gonna walk in. You don't know.

[David Bore]

Get out of my dream. If I was the man that I wanted to be.

[Janelle James]

No shirt at Ocean.

[Langston Kerman]

You want to walk in, no shirt chain on. Wow.

[Janelle James]

Huge.

[Langston Kerman]

Huge. You know that Cuban chain is a shirt.

[David Bore]

Yeah. You know that Cuban where you're like, I could kill a man with the clasp on this Cuban.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. David. And go out, wah, wah, wah, wah, bah. Your finger get caught in there, it's coming off. Yeah.

[David Bore]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Janelle James]

That sounds way more fun than war.

[David Bore]

Yeah. Oh, my God. No shit. At Ocean Pride.

[Janelle James]

That's living.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

I'm probably singing.

[Janelle James]

What you singing?

[Langston Kerman]

You're doing too much. You're drawing attention to yourself.

[Janelle James]

When's your birthday? Let me use that before you.

[David Bore]

Cigarette mayo. May 5th. I was singing Strawberry Letter 23 before Langston got in the car today.

[Janelle James]

Nice.

[David Bore]

And then I tried to change it to cooler stuff.

[Langston Kerman]

You did change it to cool stuff.

[Janelle James]

I did change Ocean Prime. No shirt.

[David Bore]

Ocean prime. No shirt.

[Janelle James]

Huge Cuban link.

[David Bore]

Huge Cuban link. Strawberry later 23 is playing.

[Langston Kerman]

least I think as you enter, that's your answer.

[David Bore]

And I'm smoking in Ocean Prime.

[Janelle James]

I can see it.

[David Bore]

I'm smoking in Ocean.

[Langston Kerman]

Cigar. You got a cigar? What are you doing? Weed. Weed. Fuck. But like.

[David Bore]

But like, huge. Like one of those belly joints.

[Janelle James]

It sound like a Rick Ross video.

[David Bore]

Remember? Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

This is awesome.

[David Bore]

He took it from me. He took it for me.

[Janelle James]

Hello, my love.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

All right.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

I think even in my wildest dreams, I take my shirt off at the table.

[David Bore]

Oh, you don't walk in.

[Langston Kerman]

I don't think I walk in that way. I think I get comfortable. And then I take my shirt off.

[Janelle James]

You have a manic episode.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Cause that's what that's gonna look like later.

[Langston Kerman]

Comes back, would you like.

[Janelle James]

Oh, something's happened.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, something's happening. That's what you're doing.

[Janelle James]

That's what you're doing.

[David Bore]

And now you don't.

[Langston Kerman]

They don't know how to deal with it. So they just let it ride.

[Janelle James]

They just let it r. But.

[Langston Kerman]

But I never made some calls. They've probably called somebody. They've told security to keep an eye.

[David Bore]

Oh, you gotta dream big.

[Janelle James]

You just wanna cause chaos. You're not living life. He not going for pleasure. You going to start some shit.

[Langston Kerman]

I do think. I do think at my core, maybe I am more. More interested in shenanigans than pleasure.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

It's one of my favorite qualities about you.

[Langston Kerman]

Thanks, man.

[Janelle James]

My dream is.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Also, no shirt.

[Langston Kerman]

Okay.

[Janelle James]

Mendoza, bother me.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

That's awesome.

[Janelle James]

Titties to the sun.

[David Bore]

Yeah, man.

[Langston Kerman]

If that's awesome.

[David Bore]

If we could live in that world,

[Janelle James]

how simple that was. Didn't need a chain or nothing. Just some titties. Outside.

[David Bore]

We didn't even have a background song.

[Langston Kerman]

It'd be nice to have a chain.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, but I don't want that tan line.

[David Bore]

It's also like, the titties is the chain.

[Janelle James]

You know, the titties is the chain. Enough adornment.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Beautiful titties is the chain. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Yeah. That'd be nice.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

It may be some ocean prom.

[David Bore]

Okay, come on, come on, come on. Get the cocktail. Get the shrimp cocktail. You know what?

[Langston Kerman]

We'll take it to go. I want to eat outside.

[Janelle James]

Men are just like, nice and keep it moving.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. Is that cool? If they're just like, oh, nice.

[Janelle James]

Nice. Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah.

[David Bore]

Nice is good. I love a compliment.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. Keep it moving.

[David Bore]

Right, right, right.

[Janelle James]

That's my dream anyway.

[David Bore]

That's a pretty good dream.

[Langston Kerman]

All right, let's let the gentleman finish this thought. So you gotta wear shoes to do anything to be included in society. So everywhere you go, you got these shoes on. The rubber tell them is not a conductor. And all of the shoes got rubber soles.

[David Bore]

Facts.

[Langston Kerman]

So the energy can't get through from the earth to your body because you got these rubber soles on your feet all day. So they. They attacking the spirit. Take your time, brother. Top Heavy Official on Instagram. My rap.

[David Bore]

Okay. Yeah. Let's go.

[Langston Kerman]

Let's go.

[David Bore]

Shout out to Op Heavy official.

[Janelle James]

Write that down for me. I'm gonna check it out with him.

[David Bore]

That's the first time anybody's done that.

[Langston Kerman]

Nobody plugs their shit.

[David Bore]

Nobody's ever done that before.

[Langston Kerman]

Shout out to Top Heavy Official, man.

[Janelle James]

Top Heavy official.

[David Bore]

Is that a big titties reference?

[Langston Kerman]

Maybe?

[Janelle James]

Top Heavy.

[Langston Kerman]

Top Heavy.

[David Bore]

What is.

[Langston Kerman]

I think Top Heavy.

[Janelle James]

Top Heavy is titties.

[Langston Kerman]

Or he might be big. He might be a big guy, but

[David Bore]

he's like, nah, I'll see you at Ocean Prime.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Well, I'm gonna find out after this.

[Langston Kerman]

Are y' all barefoot a lot?

[Janelle James]

No, not as much as I would like to be actually in the house.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

You're barefoot even in the house. I got shoes on. Yeah, I got inside shoes.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah. Oh, you switch it up?

[Janelle James]

Yeah, I switch up at the door.

[David Bore]

Yeah, I get that.

[Langston Kerman]

You got that, Mr. Robin Rogers.

[Janelle James]

I do. I do.

[Langston Kerman]

You put on a cardigan and some different shoes now. You're comfy.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, I'm. I'm. Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Yeah, I like that. No, I'm. I'm not as barefoot as I would

[David Bore]

like to be at the beach. I go barefoot. Although I just got these water shoes, but they're. They're not.

[Janelle James]

Everything's dangerous now, so we gotta.

[David Bore]

Yeah, I mean, the. I was wearing them when we were at the beach.

[Langston Kerman]

You had on the water shoe. I was barefoot at the beach.

[David Bore]

Yeah. Yeah, the water shoes, man. Fucking shit filled with sand. But no, I would like.

[Janelle James]

Because you should be barefoot. That's what the brother was saying.

[Langston Kerman]

That's what he's saying.

[Janelle James]

They put shoes on us.

[David Bore]

I think it's important. I think he's right. I think it's probably good.

[Janelle James]

Touch the earth.

[David Bore]

People say that grounding right for your bare feet to touch the raw. Not like concrete, but like the raw earth is like, it's supposed to be good for you.

[Langston Kerman]

I'll say this. The most I feel like I can do a cartwheel is when I have my bare feet.

[Janelle James]

Nice. You know what I mean? Which could also be an analogy for. For living.

[David Bore]

This.

[Janelle James]

This earth feels so good. I feel like I could cartwheel right now.

[Langston Kerman]

Do a cartwheel now. I won't because I'm 39 years old. This is risky behavior.

[David Bore]

Did you have a cartwheel?

[Janelle James]

You've wasted. Wasted wheels.

[David Bore]

You still. You look like a round dog. That's a light.

[Janelle James]

It's a light sk.

[David Bore]

That's a light. Ice skin tumble.

[Janelle James]

You saying the dog brothers ain't got. Can't real, though. You flipping.

[Langston Kerman]

And that's true. I did not do full flip. I did front flips. I couldn't do back flips.

[David Bore]

You could do a front flip.

[Langston Kerman]

I could do a front flip.

[David Bore]

You think you still got it?

[Langston Kerman]

I did it at Sky Zone not six months ago. Damn.

[David Bore]

Okay. Yeah, okay.

[Langston Kerman]

And I was scared, and I didn't know if I could.

[David Bore]

Did you.

[Langston Kerman]

But I did a lot of them.

[David Bore]

Did you do the first one? Did you make your wife watch?

[Langston Kerman]

She wasn't there. And that's the only reason I had the courage.

[David Bore]

Okay.

[Janelle James]

That's all I can do.

[Langston Kerman]

I was with strangers.

[David Bore]

By yourself?

[Langston Kerman]

No, I was with. I was with someone on tour.

[David Bore]

Oh.

[Langston Kerman]

And in that way felt. Felt distant enough from accountability.

[David Bore]

Activities sometimes are like that.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

You gotta have community.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

We're all doing sky zone stuff, so.

[Janelle James]

Try it.

[David Bore]

Yeah. And you had it.

[Langston Kerman]

Like you still had a little front flip in it.

[David Bore]

All right.

[Janelle James]

I love that.

[David Bore]

Yeah.

[Janelle James]

Adult whimsy. Love it.

[Langston Kerman]

Find it.

[Janelle James]

Yeah.

[Langston Kerman]

Take your shoes.

[Janelle James]

But you've been wasting time with shoes is what the brother is saying. You could have been rounding off your whole life.

[Langston Kerman]

I think maybe I stunted my growth. I could have found that backflip.

[Janelle James]

You maybe would have been able to do it in front of your wife.

[Langston Kerman]

Yes. And now we know each other as lovers in a different way. Our relationship is growing.

[David Bore]

You think a flip would have added to your lovemaking skills?

[Janelle James]

Think?

[Langston Kerman]

I think if she. I think if she don't want to that night, that's on her.

[Janelle James]

I see a well executed round off. I'm ready to go. Okay.

[Langston Kerman]

Get them titties up. Janelle, I think we did it. I think we did everything we needed to do together. Could you tell the people where they could find you? What?

[Janelle James]

Yeah, you can find me on Abbott Elementary. We're back in the fall. You can find me online. Janelle James. Comedy most places except where grok at. And it makes me too sad to go over there. Instant sadness. And you can also find me on my new Netflix special that will be coming out hopefully this fall. First one hour special. You can find me before that. If you just. A lot of people don't know I'm a stand up. That's amazing. Yeah, a lot of people, they only know me from Abbott.

[David Bore]

Oh, that's fair.

[Janelle James]

And so, yeah, if you want to see my.

[Langston Kerman]

You had a very big introduction to

[David Bore]

the world and you had your own comedy festival.

[Janelle James]

I had my own comedy. A lot of people don't know a lot about. And that's by design, I guess. But yeah, I've been kind of seclusion and I had the fan base I wanted, which is comedy fans. It's hard to switch over to non comedy fans.

[David Bore]

That seems scary.

[Janelle James]

Yeah, it is a little scary. But I have faith in how good I am, I guess.

[Langston Kerman]

And you know, go, go.

[Janelle James]

So yeah, watch that when that comes out.

[Langston Kerman]

Follow Janelle, watch the special.

[Janelle James]

My other Netflix specials before you watch the new one.

[Langston Kerman]

You got a 15? You got a half out.

[Janelle James]

I got a 15. I got a half out. That Will inform whether you want to. Cause I don't want fans who don't like me.

[David Bore]

Even if you didn't like those first two, give the third one a shot.

[Langston Kerman]

Hit that clip.

[David Bore]

Just numbers. Just numbers.

[Langston Kerman]

Just hit that click.

[Janelle James]

Hit the clique. If you don't like it, just don't. Don't. I don't need to know.

[Langston Kerman]

Leave it on in the background.

[David Bore]

Make dinner, Go make din.

[Langston Kerman]
