The World Is Already Over: AI, UAPs, and the "Unpause" Era


In this high-frequency edition of Trailer Park Thursday, Just Blane and Coco explore the thin line between science fiction and suppressed reality. We begin with the "End of the World" and why the rapid evolution of AI suggests our old reality is already over. Courtney discusses the ethical balance of AI in the healing space, while Blane examines the chilling trend of disappearing scientists linked to anti-gravity and alien research.
The conversation takes a deep dive into The Secrets of Skinwalker Ranch and the interdimensional theories posed by the Three Body Problem. Why did two astronauts share a suspicious glance in the Oval Office when asked about "unbelievable things"?
Finally, we switch gears to the business of media, looking at Mia Friedman’s "Mamma Mia" network and the power of finding the right chemistry in a podcast roster. From "get rich quick" schemes to the reality of girls' weekends involving more crochet than chaos, we’re breaking down the frequencies of modern life.

We're starting with this. Matt just texted me
00:00:01.800 --> 00:00:05.259
and said that he wants a get -rich -quick scheme
00:00:05.259 --> 00:00:07.940
because he's ready to quit his job today. Let's
00:00:07.940 --> 00:00:10.980
get together. Me, you, Matt, and Lindsay need
00:00:10.980 --> 00:00:12.839
to all get together and come up with something
00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:15.740
because it can happen. Way to make a bunch of
00:00:15.740 --> 00:00:18.660
money real fast. I'm hoping my Lumos partner
00:00:18.660 --> 00:00:22.620
takes me somewhere. Yeah. I keep thinking, like,
00:00:22.620 --> 00:00:26.460
there's money here eventually, I think. I believe
00:00:26.460 --> 00:00:29.300
it. Three. Yeah, three, two, one. We were talking
00:00:29.300 --> 00:00:32.640
about get rich quick schemes, and today's show
00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:34.700
is nothing about that. But I think everybody
00:00:34.700 --> 00:00:36.640
out there would be interested in how to get rich
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:39.079
quick, right, Coco? I'm listening. What do you
00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:41.719
got for me? Well, first of all, this is Parallel
00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:43.979
Frequencies with Just Plain and Coco, and you
00:00:43.979 --> 00:00:48.659
are the freaks, and we are not rich yet. But
00:00:48.659 --> 00:00:53.420
I thought opening up my own bar and being a bartender
00:00:53.420 --> 00:00:55.219
like Sam Malone, I know it's not going to make
00:00:55.219 --> 00:00:59.619
me rich rich, but... Money doesn't necessarily
00:00:59.619 --> 00:01:02.100
make you rich. It's being happy, too, right?
00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:04.060
And I think I'd be happy like a samurai. Right?
00:01:04.540 --> 00:01:07.099
Like, money can buy you experiences, but it's
00:01:07.099 --> 00:01:09.180
the experiences that make you happy, not the
00:01:09.180 --> 00:01:12.340
money itself. Not having things and money. Right?
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:14.700
I wonder if me and you could go down there to
00:01:14.700 --> 00:01:17.939
the break and get us a shift working the bar.
00:01:18.140 --> 00:01:20.500
I've thought about it. Yeah. I'd have fun. Seriously,
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:22.920
I think I'd be fun. I wanted to be one of those
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:24.980
mixologists, not just the bartender, the one
00:01:24.980 --> 00:01:27.939
that knows all the fancy. I don't even drink
00:01:27.939 --> 00:01:30.599
anymore, which is the beauty of it. Yeah, have
00:01:30.599 --> 00:01:34.060
fun making something. Not getting high on my
00:01:34.060 --> 00:01:37.439
own supply, but that's what they say if you do
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:41.079
all that. Today's Trailer Park Thursday, and
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:43.400
we're going to try to make some of these other
00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:46.379
podcasts out there rich. I doubt it. They might
00:01:46.379 --> 00:01:49.829
get a couple follows off of us. They might. But
00:01:49.829 --> 00:01:51.730
I love Trailer Park Thursday, and we haven't
00:01:51.730 --> 00:01:54.310
done it in a couple weeks. Yeah. I missed it.
00:01:54.370 --> 00:01:55.810
Have you missed a couple? That's my bad, guys.
00:01:55.849 --> 00:02:00.590
I think my schedule, my technology issues that
00:02:00.590 --> 00:02:02.349
we were having for a couple weeks was the big
00:02:02.349 --> 00:02:09.030
stuck. Yeah. It was a bit of an issue. It was
00:02:09.030 --> 00:02:12.530
a bit of an issue. But we're back now with Trailer
00:02:12.530 --> 00:02:14.710
Park Thursday. We did Boy Meets World yesterday.
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:18.319
I am still pumped off of that. Like now I can't
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:20.599
stop rewatching it. And usually when we're rewatching
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:23.539
something after we record it, I'm done. I'm like,
00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:25.360
all right, I'll get, I'll check it out. Right.
00:02:25.539 --> 00:02:28.159
Yeah. No, I mean, I can't, I cannot get off of
00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:31.759
boy meets world. I'll just add pod meets world.
00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:35.280
There you go. Pod meets world. That's a great
00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:38.580
one to just like play while you're getting ready
00:02:38.580 --> 00:02:40.219
in the morning. That's what I do. I listen to
00:02:40.219 --> 00:02:42.259
podcasts while I'm driving, but. when I'm getting
00:02:42.259 --> 00:02:43.939
ready in the morning, I try to pick something
00:02:43.939 --> 00:02:47.599
that's really entertaining and funny and gets
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:50.099
me going for the day. That's a good one for that.
00:02:50.780 --> 00:02:52.780
Play in the background. I'm trying to get the
00:02:52.780 --> 00:02:55.060
artwork and stuff up for the people out there
00:02:55.060 --> 00:02:59.400
who are watching the video feed of us and show
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:03.199
you that it's the three of them. It's Danielle,
00:03:03.659 --> 00:03:09.280
Ryder, and Will. And here it is. Here it is right
00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:15.189
here. their official page on apple podcast pod
00:03:15.189 --> 00:03:18.370
meets world it's an iheart podcast i actually
00:03:18.370 --> 00:03:21.590
know the guy that produces this show i need to
00:03:21.590 --> 00:03:23.710
reach out to him i should reach out to him and
00:03:23.710 --> 00:03:26.210
see if we can get a a little swap there with
00:03:26.210 --> 00:03:28.789
with uh crossover that'd be great yeah that'd
00:03:28.789 --> 00:03:30.810
be a fun crossover for us to do i think i think
00:03:30.810 --> 00:03:33.550
that'd be a real fun one uh but let's go ahead
00:03:33.550 --> 00:03:37.330
and get into our first trailer for today this
00:03:37.330 --> 00:03:40.729
is it the world as you know it is over Completely
00:03:40.729 --> 00:03:46.710
done. It's not about to be over. It's over. Some
00:03:46.710 --> 00:03:49.669
of the architects of AI are now sounding the
00:03:49.669 --> 00:03:52.250
alarm. There is a longer -term existential threat
00:03:52.250 --> 00:03:54.750
that will arise when we create digital beings
00:03:54.750 --> 00:03:57.710
that are more intelligent than ourselves. About
00:03:57.710 --> 00:04:00.250
the technology that they helped create. We have
00:04:00.250 --> 00:04:03.449
no idea whether we can stay in control. I was
00:04:03.449 --> 00:04:09.389
selling AI as a great thing for decades and...
00:04:09.949 --> 00:04:14.409
I was wrong. I was wrong. While others say that
00:04:14.409 --> 00:04:18.350
future cannot come fast enough. AI is going to
00:04:18.350 --> 00:04:21.009
be better than almost all humans at almost all
00:04:21.009 --> 00:04:24.170
things. It's the first technology that has no
00:04:24.170 --> 00:04:26.050
limit. I've always believed that it's going to
00:04:26.050 --> 00:04:28.189
be the most important invention that humanity
00:04:28.189 --> 00:04:30.990
will ever make. This really will be a world of
00:04:30.990 --> 00:04:33.410
abundance. Era of maximum human flourishing where
00:04:33.410 --> 00:04:36.750
we travel to the stars and colonize the galaxy.
00:04:37.389 --> 00:04:40.189
These fears and these fantasies of our AI future.
00:04:40.329 --> 00:04:42.610
The current scenario is if anyone builds it,
00:04:42.689 --> 00:04:45.850
everyone dies. They feel very recent. I believe
00:04:45.850 --> 00:04:47.709
it's going to change the world more than anything
00:04:47.709 --> 00:04:50.230
in the history of mankind, more than electricity.
00:04:52.069 --> 00:04:55.110
But they're actually not. The dream of a machine
00:04:55.110 --> 00:04:57.990
that would be smarter than its creator, that
00:04:57.990 --> 00:05:01.470
is a dream as old as computer science. The people
00:05:01.470 --> 00:05:04.029
that put their hands to building those first
00:05:04.029 --> 00:05:07.899
computers were already. warning us to get ready
00:05:07.899 --> 00:05:11.199
for this moment. The survival of humanity depends
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:13.779
on the early construction of an ultra -intelligent
00:05:13.779 --> 00:05:17.339
machine. And they called this machine mankind's
00:05:17.339 --> 00:05:20.240
last invention. But I also realized that this
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:23.680
was also dangerous. I'm Gregory Warner, and this
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:28.939
is The Last Invention. Listen on Apple, Spotify,
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:41.579
or wherever you get your podcasts. What a relevant,
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:48.720
scary, relatable podcast. Yeah. I'm glad we're
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:52.360
talking about this. A lot of, you know, ethical
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:57.620
concerns as well as looking at innovation as
00:05:57.620 --> 00:06:02.800
both a help to humanity or a detriment to humanity.
00:06:02.879 --> 00:06:06.959
Yeah. A great conversation to talk about. I'm
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:10.540
talking about it more and more because I've included
00:06:10.540 --> 00:06:13.699
and partnered with AI on my website for Prism
00:06:13.699 --> 00:06:16.660
Healing. And it's something that a lot of energy
00:06:16.660 --> 00:06:20.079
healers and in the world of, you know, energy
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:23.220
and woo -woo that I live in, there's a lot of
00:06:23.220 --> 00:06:27.939
people against it, against using AI at all, incorporating
00:06:27.939 --> 00:06:31.250
it. anything like that i mean artists obviously
00:06:31.250 --> 00:06:34.069
have some ethical concerns about ai and the use
00:06:34.069 --> 00:06:38.149
of images that steal from human artists and i
00:06:38.149 --> 00:06:40.709
mean it's all valid it's all something that i
00:06:40.709 --> 00:06:42.750
think we need to talk about because i think everything
00:06:42.750 --> 00:06:45.529
that we go into there needs to be real intention
00:06:45.529 --> 00:06:52.050
behind how we use something i'm a big advocate
00:06:52.050 --> 00:06:58.149
for um balance yes all things right in moderation
00:06:58.149 --> 00:07:01.470
balance and knowing like your intention in in
00:07:01.470 --> 00:07:05.889
the use of something right the beginning words
00:07:05.889 --> 00:07:09.730
of this trailer this is it the world as you know
00:07:09.730 --> 00:07:13.290
it is over they're right completely done it's
00:07:13.290 --> 00:07:18.290
not about to be over it's over I do have to argue
00:07:18.290 --> 00:07:21.110
toothpaste back in the bottle kind of. Yeah,
00:07:21.189 --> 00:07:23.470
exactly. We've already gotten to this point.
00:07:23.509 --> 00:07:26.430
So like, we're not going to be able to go back
00:07:26.430 --> 00:07:29.410
unless there was some catastrophic, catastrophic
00:07:29.410 --> 00:07:33.790
event that shut it all down. Yeah. Which we've
00:07:33.790 --> 00:07:35.889
seen that happen in the movies and stuff. So
00:07:35.889 --> 00:07:38.129
it's not out of the realm of possibility because
00:07:38.129 --> 00:07:40.389
what we see in the movies is real. That's all
00:07:40.389 --> 00:07:43.110
real, right? That's all. Yeah. It's possible.
00:07:45.180 --> 00:07:47.800
If you want to hear me and Coco break down some
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:51.980
more about AI in an AI movie, this week we did
00:07:51.980 --> 00:07:54.000
Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die. And that was
00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:57.839
the whole movie, basically. So I'm a big fan
00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:03.379
of AI, but you got to use it right. And I think
00:08:03.379 --> 00:08:06.540
that when you're dealing with something that's
00:08:06.540 --> 00:08:10.060
not human, it's hard to be balanced because we
00:08:10.060 --> 00:08:12.360
know what that is. Maybe it doesn't. Maybe the
00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:16.149
AI doesn't, you know? Yeah, there's there's some
00:08:16.149 --> 00:08:18.670
problems with AI that are going to pop up and
00:08:18.670 --> 00:08:20.850
there's some help with AI that's going to pop
00:08:20.850 --> 00:08:23.589
up. There's going to be some diseases cured that
00:08:23.589 --> 00:08:25.910
we haven't been able to do before. Like I see
00:08:25.910 --> 00:08:29.670
this stuff in medical and science happening.
00:08:29.769 --> 00:08:33.309
I can see this coming to fruition. So some of
00:08:33.309 --> 00:08:36.409
this is not bad, but we should be weary of what's
00:08:36.409 --> 00:08:39.850
out there and what's going on. I just saw today
00:08:39.850 --> 00:08:43.919
there was a company that got. bankrupt basically
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:46.480
because ai went and sold and traded and did all
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:49.539
that stuff behind back behind the scenes but
00:08:49.539 --> 00:08:52.620
that's also what happens when you fire all the
00:08:52.620 --> 00:08:56.500
humans and let the ai run your company so there's
00:08:56.500 --> 00:08:58.860
your balance coco we got to find a balance of
00:08:58.860 --> 00:09:03.299
that yeah yeah so i think that it's we still
00:09:03.299 --> 00:09:07.940
need to make humans and human effort and human
00:09:07.940 --> 00:09:13.509
intellect and human eq iq as a blended part of
00:09:13.509 --> 00:09:15.730
everything that we do because if we're not powerful
00:09:15.730 --> 00:09:19.169
we can get into a position where we've really
00:09:19.169 --> 00:09:22.990
harmed all of society as we know it more than
00:09:22.990 --> 00:09:25.950
we've helped yeah we don't want to do that helpful
00:09:25.950 --> 00:09:28.090
right we don't we don't ever want to do that
00:09:28.090 --> 00:09:30.950
we want to leave something better than we came
00:09:30.950 --> 00:09:34.129
you know like that whole saying let's get to
00:09:34.129 --> 00:09:36.250
our next podcast i'm excited about this one because
00:09:36.250 --> 00:09:38.830
it's got frequency in the title so let's hear
00:09:38.830 --> 00:09:43.279
it Back in 1996, we created NBC's alien invasion
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:46.200
series, Dark Skies. And at our network premiere
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:48.919
party, a real -life man in black showed up, said
00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:50.740
he was with the Office of Naval Intelligence,
00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:53.500
and told us he'd already seen the show. And that
00:09:53.500 --> 00:09:56.500
we got a lot right. Now, the deal he offered
00:09:56.500 --> 00:09:58.679
us to use our show as part of the government's
00:09:58.679 --> 00:10:01.179
UFO disclosure program, well, that completely
00:10:01.179 --> 00:10:03.200
changed how we saw the entertainment industry.
00:10:03.580 --> 00:10:05.980
Sure did. We started seeing the bigger pattern,
00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:08.860
how a steady release of movies and TV series,
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:12.340
Going back to the 1950s, well, it all sure seemed
00:10:12.340 --> 00:10:15.860
to have been oddly prophetic. Or secretly informed.
00:10:17.899 --> 00:10:21.019
I'm Brent Friedman. And I'm Bryce Abel. The question
00:10:21.019 --> 00:10:24.019
isn't, are UFOs real anymore? We know they are.
00:10:24.139 --> 00:10:27.139
We have a different question. What kind of alien
00:10:27.139 --> 00:10:30.220
contact has really been going on? Sound Light
00:10:30.220 --> 00:10:33.379
and Frequency is a deep dive into the UAP UFO
00:10:33.379 --> 00:10:35.960
phenomenon seen through the lens of Hollywood
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:38.590
for more than seven decades. The entertainment
00:10:38.590 --> 00:10:41.470
business has been making alien movies. Have they
00:10:41.470 --> 00:10:43.730
been influenced by something that's really happening?
00:10:43.929 --> 00:10:46.669
Or do movies and TV series influence what people
00:10:46.669 --> 00:10:49.409
see and report? Look, we're not coming at this
00:10:49.409 --> 00:10:51.389
as outsiders. We've been working in Hollywood
00:10:51.389 --> 00:10:53.830
since the 80s, so we've had a front row seat
00:10:53.830 --> 00:10:56.690
to 40 years of strangeness. And if you like going
00:10:56.690 --> 00:10:58.730
behind the scenes in Hollywood and want to know
00:10:58.730 --> 00:11:00.870
more about its relationship with the phenomenon,
00:11:01.049 --> 00:11:03.950
then buckle up. I promise it's going to be a
00:11:03.950 --> 00:11:06.899
wild ride. Sound Light and Frequency premieres
00:11:06.899 --> 00:11:09.799
February 19th on iHeart Podcasts and everywhere
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:21.940
you get your podcasts. Oh, man. Did I not just
00:11:21.940 --> 00:11:25.919
prophesize this from that last trailer when I
00:11:25.919 --> 00:11:28.419
said, hey, aren't all movies real? And I was
00:11:28.419 --> 00:11:31.399
jokingly saying it, but they're saying no, no,
00:11:31.419 --> 00:11:35.320
no. There's something to this. I love the idea
00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:37.519
of this podcast. Sound, light, and frequency.
00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:41.720
This is my frequency. I love UFOs and UAPs and
00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:43.600
whatever else they want to call them these days.
00:11:44.360 --> 00:11:47.179
Interdimensional beings. Coco, I've been on a
00:11:47.179 --> 00:11:50.259
kick lately. I just watched the Disclosure Day
00:11:50.259 --> 00:11:56.019
documentary. I've been deep diving into Skinwalker
00:11:56.019 --> 00:11:59.809
Ranch, Brandon Pugel out there. Oh my gosh, because
00:11:59.809 --> 00:12:01.710
Netflix just put it on. They put The Secrets
00:12:01.710 --> 00:12:04.789
of Skinwalker Ranch season four up. I've never
00:12:04.789 --> 00:12:08.009
really seen the show. I don't have, what is it
00:12:08.009 --> 00:12:09.590
on, History, Discovery, one of them channels?
00:12:09.669 --> 00:12:12.549
I don't have that channel. And I started watching,
00:12:12.570 --> 00:12:14.809
I'm like, I'm all in. We got to get in touch
00:12:14.809 --> 00:12:16.850
with Brandon Fugel and get us out there to the
00:12:16.850 --> 00:12:19.029
Skinwalker Ranch. I want to see what's going
00:12:19.029 --> 00:12:21.370
on out there. I'm very, very curious. As an energy
00:12:21.370 --> 00:12:24.509
healer and someone who, you know, kind of trained
00:12:24.509 --> 00:12:30.350
to... feel and sense and use my intuition i just
00:12:30.350 --> 00:12:33.110
i'd be really curious to see walking the land
00:12:33.110 --> 00:12:37.490
and feeling the vibrations and what comes up
00:12:37.490 --> 00:12:40.669
i've always been very curious about it what did
00:12:40.669 --> 00:12:42.950
this remind you of as we were talking about uh
00:12:42.950 --> 00:12:47.490
interdimensional intergalactic beings and frequencies
00:12:47.490 --> 00:12:51.750
reminded me of pluribus oh yeah that did not
00:12:51.750 --> 00:12:56.120
invade on that show it didn't invade you know,
00:12:56.120 --> 00:12:58.720
an alien race or an alien being, but like as
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:02.720
a frequency, as sound coming in. Let me throw
00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:06.120
another one at you. Three body problem. Gotta
00:13:06.120 --> 00:13:09.659
go watch that one. That show right there. And
00:13:09.659 --> 00:13:13.659
make sure you watch the Netflix version. And
00:13:13.659 --> 00:13:17.980
there's an actual Chinese version that's on Amazon,
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:19.820
I believe. I believe it's Chinese. I'm not trying
00:13:19.820 --> 00:13:22.639
to be whatever, but I think it's Chinese origin.
00:13:23.879 --> 00:13:26.620
And that's the one to watch. But Three -Body
00:13:26.620 --> 00:13:28.139
Problem, there'll be a season two coming out
00:13:28.139 --> 00:13:31.200
on Netflix soon. That one right there is going
00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:34.379
to make you think. And if they are prophesizing
00:13:34.379 --> 00:13:37.500
what's going to happen in the future, you better
00:13:37.500 --> 00:13:39.899
start paying attention to that show. It may not
00:13:39.899 --> 00:13:42.720
even be the future. I've started seeing some
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:47.500
pretty big scientist names disappearing. Is that
00:13:47.500 --> 00:13:52.720
not crazy? How do 12 or 13 scientists... Just
00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:56.720
disappear, die, commit suicide when they said
00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.480
they weren't suicidal. And they're all working
00:13:59.480 --> 00:14:04.700
on alien, maybe interdimensional, anti -gravity
00:14:04.700 --> 00:14:06.899
was one of them. And these people are all gone.
00:14:08.220 --> 00:14:10.240
Something weird is going on out here, people.
00:14:10.360 --> 00:14:12.659
Something weird is really going on. I hope my
00:14:12.659 --> 00:14:15.440
house doesn't get raided for saying I want a
00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:19.399
public domain, a public space. You know, I watch...
00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:21.820
Here's the thing, too, about these documentaries
00:14:21.820 --> 00:14:23.840
and all this stuff that's come out over the years.
00:14:25.299 --> 00:14:26.980
They've all been saying the same thing, but they
00:14:26.980 --> 00:14:28.500
usually have some guy on there. You're like,
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:31.639
I don't know about this. I don't know about this
00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:34.100
guy. I don't know about this one here. Sure.
00:14:34.620 --> 00:14:37.879
I watched The Disclosure Day, the newest documentary
00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:40.419
out. I'm not talking about the Steven Spielberg
00:14:40.419 --> 00:14:42.360
movie that's coming, but there's a documentary
00:14:42.360 --> 00:14:46.200
called The Disclosure Day. And the amount of
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:50.409
people in there and the names. of the people
00:14:50.409 --> 00:14:56.570
who are talking it's you're like um i don't like
00:14:56.570 --> 00:15:01.070
yeah there might be 10 people in here and three
00:15:01.070 --> 00:15:03.149
of them might be kooks but some of them are they're
00:15:03.149 --> 00:15:05.009
telling the truth like something's going on i
00:15:05.009 --> 00:15:06.870
believe them is what i'm saying like you believe
00:15:06.870 --> 00:15:09.230
what they're saying because who the hell can
00:15:09.230 --> 00:15:13.470
make that stuff up and it's wild you know where
00:15:13.470 --> 00:15:16.350
there's smoke there's fire is kind of the The
00:15:16.350 --> 00:15:18.610
way that I look at it is, you know, not everything
00:15:18.610 --> 00:15:21.970
has to be accurate or they're, you know, spouting
00:15:21.970 --> 00:15:26.909
up scientific facts. But where theories and conspiracies
00:15:26.909 --> 00:15:30.710
are starting to, like, grow some traction, you've
00:15:30.710 --> 00:15:32.850
got to think there's got to be something to it.
00:15:32.909 --> 00:15:34.950
There's got to be some truth if you sift through
00:15:34.950 --> 00:15:39.070
all that. You got our own president yesterday.
00:15:40.129 --> 00:15:43.830
I believe it was yesterday. Had the astronauts
00:15:43.830 --> 00:15:47.019
that just went. To the moon and back. Had them
00:15:47.019 --> 00:15:49.139
in the Oval Office and, you know, did the whole
00:15:49.139 --> 00:15:53.000
rigmarole, whatever they do. But he did say something.
00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:55.379
Here's where I got it, where I was like, whoa,
00:15:55.460 --> 00:15:57.200
wait a minute. He said something along the lines
00:15:57.200 --> 00:16:01.460
of they've seen unbelievable things. And the
00:16:01.460 --> 00:16:03.720
two astronauts make this look towards each other.
00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:07.679
Go look for that clip. And I'm not getting into
00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:10.559
politics. I'm not getting into politics and all
00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:14.919
that. And that's why I said the president. Had
00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:17.860
our astronauts in the Oval Office, and he literally
00:16:17.860 --> 00:16:19.940
said something along those lines, and they make
00:16:19.940 --> 00:16:23.679
this awkward look towards each other. I bet they
00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:27.240
saw something up there. How would you not? If
00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:30.200
there's something out there... Actually, I know
00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:31.679
the answer to that. I'm going to answer my own
00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:33.240
question. How would you not? And it's because
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:37.139
they don't want you to, because they can do whatever.
00:16:38.620 --> 00:16:41.679
You know, they can cloak themselves like Star
00:16:41.679 --> 00:16:46.149
Trek or whatever it was they did. Yeah. I'm so
00:16:46.149 --> 00:16:48.529
fascinated by all the alien stuff. I am. And
00:16:48.529 --> 00:16:50.049
I know they're coming, and I've said it before.
00:16:50.870 --> 00:16:53.049
Please let me be the one to tell the people.
00:16:54.529 --> 00:16:56.330
Just come get me. Let me tell them. I want to
00:16:56.330 --> 00:16:59.389
see the looks on everybody's faces. Yeah. Next
00:16:59.389 --> 00:17:00.710
trailer. Let's get to this one. This one's a
00:17:00.710 --> 00:17:02.789
little bit long, so we may cut it off and talk
00:17:02.789 --> 00:17:04.150
about it. We'll let it play for a couple minutes
00:17:04.150 --> 00:17:07.970
and see. Wait. Is this on? Can you hear me? Does
00:17:07.970 --> 00:17:09.910
this work? Yeah. I've got my camera on. I've
00:17:09.910 --> 00:17:13.880
got my headphones on. Wait. Just get my glasses.
00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:19.339
Okay. So hello. I've basically snuck into the
00:17:19.339 --> 00:17:21.539
podcast studio to go a little bit rogue behind
00:17:21.539 --> 00:17:24.460
the mic and give you a sneak peek heads up about
00:17:24.460 --> 00:17:27.259
this new podcast I've been working on behind
00:17:27.259 --> 00:17:30.059
the scenes. I'm Mia Friedman. I'm the co -founder
00:17:30.059 --> 00:17:33.740
of the women's media company, Mama Mia. We make
00:17:33.740 --> 00:17:36.140
all kinds of content for all kinds of women and
00:17:36.140 --> 00:17:39.759
we make tons of podcasts. But about a year ago,
00:17:39.880 --> 00:17:42.940
I realized one was missing. So I put on my producer
00:17:42.940 --> 00:17:45.779
hat, I made a vision board, I assembled a killer
00:17:45.779 --> 00:17:49.920
cast of very different, iconic Gen X women, and
00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:52.359
I put together a production team and we have
00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:55.880
all been making a new show for you. It's called
00:17:55.880 --> 00:17:59.299
Unleashed because being at this stage of life,
00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:02.799
midlife, is actually really liberating. It's
00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:04.900
not a misery fest. There are some challenging
00:18:04.900 --> 00:18:07.640
things about it, but it's actually really freeing
00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:11.329
to give a whole lot less fucks because God. the
00:18:11.329 --> 00:18:14.829
world is a lot right now, isn't it? I think we're
00:18:14.829 --> 00:18:18.190
just exhausted by the bin fire that we're all
00:18:18.190 --> 00:18:20.190
living through and it just feels like it's coming
00:18:20.190 --> 00:18:24.269
at us relentlessly and sometimes everything can
00:18:24.269 --> 00:18:27.650
just feel really heavy and intense and make you
00:18:27.650 --> 00:18:30.670
feel really anxious and I just thought wouldn't
00:18:30.670 --> 00:18:33.569
it be nice to listen to a show with women my
00:18:33.569 --> 00:18:37.289
age who just wanted to have a laugh. It's a really
00:18:37.289 --> 00:18:40.569
interesting age, Gen X and midlife, because it's
00:18:40.569 --> 00:18:42.789
this age where we're lifting heavy things and
00:18:42.789 --> 00:18:46.509
we're dropping toxic people and we are eating
00:18:46.509 --> 00:18:49.309
a shit ton of protein. Like we are eating so
00:18:49.309 --> 00:18:52.069
much protein. I'm pretty sure my personality
00:18:52.069 --> 00:18:56.809
is just 80 % Greek yogurt at this point. And
00:18:56.809 --> 00:18:58.710
yet, despite all the lifting and the protein
00:18:58.710 --> 00:19:01.849
and the working on ourselves, the world and the
00:19:01.849 --> 00:19:04.710
culture keeps trying to tell us to get in the
00:19:04.710 --> 00:19:07.160
bin. It's like if we stand up for ourselves,
00:19:07.259 --> 00:19:10.960
we're a Karen. If we try to use an emoji, our
00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:13.180
kids look at us like we've just committed a hate
00:19:13.180 --> 00:19:16.500
crime. I still don't know what 6 -7 means. And
00:19:16.500 --> 00:19:19.859
quite frankly, I'm tired of being a human doormat
00:19:19.859 --> 00:19:23.160
and being mocked every time I want to speak to
00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:25.559
the manager. So I decided that we needed a place
00:19:25.559 --> 00:19:28.839
to go, an escape hatch. The vibe of this show,
00:19:28.960 --> 00:19:31.779
Unleashed, it's like the best girls' dinner you've
00:19:31.779 --> 00:19:35.910
ever been to. Like the wine is cold, the bread
00:19:35.910 --> 00:19:39.230
is warm, and within 10 minutes someone is explaining
00:19:39.230 --> 00:19:42.269
exactly why they're never speaking to their sister
00:19:42.269 --> 00:19:45.990
-in -law again and someone else is showing everybody
00:19:45.990 --> 00:19:48.549
a rash and asking if they know what it is. It
00:19:48.549 --> 00:19:51.250
is helpful. It is funny. It's mostly just funny.
00:19:51.329 --> 00:19:56.200
And it is often quite unhinged. It is not a menopause
00:19:56.200 --> 00:19:58.839
moan fest. We aren't here to be your life coaches.
00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:01.880
I'm not actually on this show. I'm behind the
00:20:01.880 --> 00:20:04.740
scenes working as a producer. The women that
00:20:04.740 --> 00:20:07.220
I've assembled are pretty awesome. They're going
00:20:07.220 --> 00:20:09.819
to be rotating because they're so busy doing
00:20:09.819 --> 00:20:11.980
all their own things. They're rogue, they're
00:20:11.980 --> 00:20:16.680
brilliant, and they get it. Mary Kustis. I also
00:20:16.680 --> 00:20:19.099
think that underwear is sort of almost like a
00:20:19.099 --> 00:20:21.839
new marriage. Like it starts off, it gives you
00:20:21.839 --> 00:20:24.059
the best of what it offers at the beginning.
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:28.640
And then it loses its way. You hang on to it
00:20:28.640 --> 00:20:31.640
for way too long. Suddenly you're getting wedgies
00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:33.640
that you never got before and all of that. Little
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:36.700
stains in the crotch. She's the OG creator of
00:20:36.700 --> 00:20:39.460
the legendary Effie character. She's been making
00:20:39.460 --> 00:20:42.019
us laugh since Acropolis Now, from headlining
00:20:42.019 --> 00:20:45.259
the Opera House in her own one -woman show to
00:20:45.259 --> 00:20:47.799
co -founding a new menopause platform called
00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:50.240
Unpause and writing a book called Merry Pause.
00:20:50.339 --> 00:20:54.839
She is a force. Sally Hepworth. is the best -selling
00:20:54.839 --> 00:20:56.940
author if you haven't read a sally hepworth book
00:20:56.940 --> 00:21:00.220
yet or seen one of the tv adaptations of her
00:21:00.220 --> 00:21:02.720
books who even are you what are you doing with
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:04.759
your time come on it really felt like it was
00:21:04.759 --> 00:21:07.059
taking me back to like we're only like halfway
00:21:07.059 --> 00:21:11.720
through this now if if that cocoa and i am i'm
00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:13.940
hooked on this this is great stuff this is talking
00:21:13.940 --> 00:21:18.480
sure it's talking to to to the women but i'm
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:20.960
getting something out of this you know i'm oh
00:21:20.960 --> 00:21:24.609
yeah right here with her I'm probably 80 % protein
00:21:24.609 --> 00:21:27.930
or whatever she said, you know, like, yeah, this
00:21:27.930 --> 00:21:31.890
is, this is, this is incredible. Oh my gosh.
00:21:31.910 --> 00:21:36.130
So if I can listen to like, you know, I love
00:21:36.130 --> 00:21:39.630
podcasts with, uh, if they're fun and funny and
00:21:39.630 --> 00:21:42.190
relatable groups of men talking about whatever
00:21:42.190 --> 00:21:45.089
shooting the shit, you know, if I can enjoy that,
00:21:45.230 --> 00:21:49.039
I think just as many men would enjoy. listening
00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:51.700
to a podcast where a group of women are having
00:21:51.700 --> 00:21:54.339
a good time and talking about real stuff. And
00:21:54.339 --> 00:21:57.480
you might learn a thing or two. I mean, what's
00:21:57.480 --> 00:21:59.420
wrong with learning a little bit about the world
00:21:59.420 --> 00:22:02.259
of what it means to be a woman in this stage
00:22:02.259 --> 00:22:05.339
of life? I think that would be very insightful
00:22:05.339 --> 00:22:09.279
for anybody. I love Mia Friedman here, what she's
00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:14.660
doing. Because you know what? This is what I'm
00:22:14.660 --> 00:22:18.299
trying to do. This is what... What she's doing
00:22:18.299 --> 00:22:20.619
is what I'm trying to do with Ride the Wave Media.
00:22:20.819 --> 00:22:25.319
It's put the producer hat on and crank out some
00:22:25.319 --> 00:22:28.799
great content that people need to hear for one
00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:30.519
reason or another. Whether you like to listen
00:22:30.519 --> 00:22:33.240
to movies or hear us talk about movies or TV
00:22:33.240 --> 00:22:35.339
shows, that's for you. If you want to hear about
00:22:35.339 --> 00:22:38.299
some sports, we got shows for that. We got a
00:22:38.299 --> 00:22:40.980
show that's Disneyland focused. It's Disney focused.
00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:44.420
Just had Bob Weiss on. So I'm trying to give
00:22:44.420 --> 00:22:48.339
this stuff out there to the people and put the
00:22:48.339 --> 00:22:50.579
producer hat on. She says she's got a producer
00:22:50.579 --> 00:22:53.519
hat that it's actually written on in very large
00:22:53.519 --> 00:22:56.079
font. I don't have that. Maybe I'll get me one
00:22:56.079 --> 00:22:59.240
of them. But I love what Mia Friedman's doing.
00:22:59.279 --> 00:23:01.559
I'd love to talk to Mia Friedman and connect
00:23:01.559 --> 00:23:04.119
with her. Maybe I'll try that from a producer
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:07.589
to producer. Oh, that'd be fantastic. Yeah. I
00:23:07.589 --> 00:23:10.910
love the idea and the chemistry. I mean, I love
00:23:10.910 --> 00:23:13.529
how she said she cultivated like this cast, you
00:23:13.529 --> 00:23:15.829
know, had a vision board of who she wanted to,
00:23:15.829 --> 00:23:20.369
to be the right people together. Cause there
00:23:20.369 --> 00:23:22.509
is this chemistry that happens with certain people
00:23:22.509 --> 00:23:24.890
and it is kind of rare to find. And if you can
00:23:24.890 --> 00:23:28.990
really find it, it's such a blessing. Like to
00:23:28.990 --> 00:23:31.670
find a group of women you can really be yourself
00:23:31.670 --> 00:23:36.640
with and laugh. I honestly, I haven't had that
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:39.440
much. There are pockets of moments in my life
00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:41.940
where I've had women I know that I really feel
00:23:41.940 --> 00:23:45.599
that way with. But recently, it's been your wife,
00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:47.940
Lindsay. When Lindsay and I get together, I'm
00:23:47.940 --> 00:23:52.200
like, oh, I've been craving this kind of friendship
00:23:52.200 --> 00:23:57.039
where we can laugh like this. And it's easy.
00:23:57.319 --> 00:24:00.319
It feels easy. And you just flow into it. And
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:02.000
you can talk about anything. And you're just
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:05.380
having a good time. Yeah. I'm like, if we had
00:24:05.380 --> 00:24:07.599
a podcast, this is what I imagine it would be
00:24:07.599 --> 00:24:10.440
like is what we're hearing here. Lindsay said
00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:12.460
she wants a podcast with you. We'll have to get
00:24:12.460 --> 00:24:14.859
that thing going. You guys can be on there just
00:24:14.859 --> 00:24:17.799
being yourselves, burping, farting. I know. Doing
00:24:17.799 --> 00:24:21.160
whatever you do. I don't know. There's very little
00:24:21.160 --> 00:24:28.440
of that, honestly. You know, when women get together,
00:24:28.539 --> 00:24:31.019
this is what men think. We think you have lingerie
00:24:31.019 --> 00:24:34.269
pillow fights. I know. We envision and picture.
00:24:34.430 --> 00:24:36.849
I know. We think you're doing body shots off
00:24:36.849 --> 00:24:39.609
of each other. You know, like that's what we
00:24:39.609 --> 00:24:43.210
see. You guys go ahead and dream all you want.
00:24:44.470 --> 00:24:46.589
But I can tell you it's probably not that at
00:24:46.589 --> 00:24:49.990
all. Like not ever. Like I don't think ever.
00:24:50.390 --> 00:24:52.329
But, you know, it's fun to joke about that. We
00:24:52.329 --> 00:24:55.430
did that a lot. Last year, me and Lindsay went
00:24:55.430 --> 00:24:57.910
on a little girls weekend trip with some other
00:24:57.910 --> 00:25:00.309
women that we didn't know was. well as we knew
00:25:00.309 --> 00:25:02.130
each other but it was a great bonding moment
00:25:02.130 --> 00:25:04.529
because we were able to like joke and laugh and
00:25:04.529 --> 00:25:06.569
what we were actually doing was more like she
00:25:06.569 --> 00:25:09.269
was crocheting yeah yeah yeah that's her thing
00:25:09.269 --> 00:25:12.309
in the shade yeah while we were in the hot tub
00:25:12.309 --> 00:25:16.109
you know she was like just doing her thing we
00:25:16.109 --> 00:25:18.730
had a great time that sounds about right well
00:25:18.730 --> 00:25:22.529
if you want to join this group of women it's

Let's talk about some stuff. I think we could
00:25:36.650 --> 00:25:41.369
partner up and be a powerhouse here and accomplish
00:25:41.369 --> 00:25:45.490
