Fellas, you know Degree Cool Rush deodorant, right? Well, last year they changed the formula and guys were mad about it. One dude even started a petition. So guess what? Degree heard us, admitted they messed up and brought the original Cool Rush scent back exactly how it was. And it's in Walmart, Target and other stores now for under $4. So grab some and remember why its cool, crisp and fresh scent made it the number one men's antiperspirant for the last decade. Degree Cool Rush is back and it smells like victory for all of us.

Go to Mike Pesca.com to check out the details of this job. And even if it's not for you, if it's for someone who doesn't even work in radio, audio or podcasting, but you think has the skills to help us here at the Gist and Peach Fish. Check it out at Mike pesca.com It's Wednesday, April 30, 2025 from Pete Fish Productions. It's the Gist. I'm Mike Pe so it's Donald Trump's first 100 days. Don't know if you heard that underreported in a lot of quarters. I think some news outlets should really run with that. Could be a peg. But what Mr. Trump has done of significance in Day 1161, the war in Ukraine was of interest to me. So Vladimir Putin currently on day 9124 of power. If you don't Count the Medvedev interregnum. And he doesn't. He's not been negotiating to Donald Trump's satisfaction. So it's time to make some progress with the other party in the conflict. You know, the conflict. It's one that candidate Trump vowed to settle in the first 14, 40 minutes. I will get the problem solved, and I will get it solved in rapid order, and it will take me no longer than one day. I know exactly what to say to each of them. I got along with very well with him. Trump has now turned to Vladimir Zelensky. He's on day 2161. And this is because Xi Jinping on day 4426, controls all the rare earths, rare earths. And Trump is correctly nervous about getting access to them, thanks to his trade war. Now in day 28, since Liberation Day, Bloomberg is reporting the rare earth deal is ready to go. Maybe it will be by the time you hear this. Now, to be clear, when we say rare earths, and we do like to say rare earths, fun to say rare earths, great thing to say. Like Donald Trump. I don't even know if I'm saying it like him or more like Scooby Doo. But rare earth, we don't necessarily mean the literal rare earths. You know, your prasio demium, your cerium, your lanthanum, your neodymium. I think I had an extra syllable there. It's okay, we'll go with it. Or of course, your gadolinium, but it probably includes lithium. It includes the rare earths in Ukraine, includes 22 of the 34 elements listed as critical by the EU. So the US will take it. The US will literally take it. Sort of like the Russians will take Ukrainian territory, which up until now, the US has not had that much of a problem with. But, you know, maybe the rare earth deal will so please Donald Trump that he will turn against Putin, that he will sympathize with the Ukrainians, that he will show loyalty to a negotiating partner who's showing him some loyalty, as opposed to doing the thing where you're sadly desperate to win over the favor of a thug who disrespects you. If that happens, that will be a day 101 through 100 never type development, an occurrence more rare than the very powerful rare earth on the show. Today, I bring you the most affordable government agency, one showing so much effectiveness and efficiency that it bowled over Donald Trump and the Doge team, and they let it survive. No, I am just kidding. Trump and Elon Musk killed these guys, too. But first, Sadie Dingfelder is back, and I set my steely gaze on her, my lantern jaw fixed at an imposing angle. How did it get so lantern? Why mewing, of course. A technique designed to strengthen and bulk up the jaw, which, as we all know through science, is the key to male pulchritude. Or is that bullshit city? Dingfelder has the answer up next. If Ed is getting you down, don't blame Ed. That guy's not special. Lots of guys have it. You need to get up. Get up with hims.

How'd you get it for me? My dad would listen to a lot of those AM radio shows where they talked about finances. I think they were very respectable. They weren't ripoffs. And we got smart.

Twiggy famous model in the 60s, cut to, I don't know, 20, 30 years later later and a Nicole Smith, the Ruben esque beauty, the thinner fit beauty. These are body types. But there is a thick facial standard for beauty and sometimes it is expressed as a ratio. But in general, a man, I think throughout history and throughout cultures is prized if he has the lantern jaw, the chiseled square jaw, think Christopher Reeves or maybe George Reeves, all the supermen. But here I am talking about how to get that jaw. Can you get that jaw? This is a latest trend, a scientific or quasi scientific trend. And when quasi science comes into our purview, we call on Sadie Dingfelder, the author of Do I Know you? A Face Blind Reporter's Journey into the Science of Sight, Memory and Imagination. Actual book. If you're watching the video holding it up, I'm not lying. The book exists and Sadie Dingfelder is here to play. Is that bullshit? Hello, Sadie.
