Speaker 2
Hey-o. I'll never be the Hawk to a Girl. Not
Speaker 1
if you talk like that, Pallavi, you won't be. So true. Have you seen the clip of her on Bill Maher doing the...
Speaker 2
No, but I don't understand how Bill Maher gets the guests he gets and then is like, people are crazy. You're insane. You're the one doing it. You're seeking these people out. Right.
Speaker 1
Anyways, his interview style is kind of boring. He's just like, what rap do you listen to? But I do just this is another banger from the Hawk to a girl that I would like to share with you real quick, if I'm sure everybody's heard it. But still just a lot of fun. Here we go. I'll listen to much new rap. What's old to you? Old rap. To me, it's like Jay Z and Tupac Dead silence. You've heard it Jay Z. Yeah
Speaker 2
in Tupac. I just think you're a titty interviewer. He does that one song Jay Z's in. He's like concrete jungle
Speaker 1
wet dream tomato, you know, about New York. Does Bill
Speaker 2
Maher recognize or does he you know, he was like, Oh, that's like probably the lyrics of the song. He probably was like, Oh, yeah, that Jay Z is writing crazy songs.
Speaker 1
I just pretend to listen to Jay Z and Tupac. Yeah. Yeah. I am curious. I haven't seen the clip after the fact if he recognizes the genius in his midst almost definitely not. I
Speaker 2
just had to do another podcast and I say had because I can't believe I did it, but it's called I hate Bill Maher and it's by Will Weldon and he makes us watch episodes of Bill Maher and then like break it down and talk about it. And he viscerally hates Bill Maher. And I hate him for making me watch this episode of Bill Maher from 2003. But I'm like- From 2003, wow. Yeah, he's going through all of Bill Maher's like discography basically. He was going from like all of Bill Maher's TV shows and then he might do his podcast. He has a passion for hating Bill Maher and it's so visceral. Bill Maher has always been this awful person. I don't know how he survived this long. But anyway, that podcast is really fun too.
Speaker 1
Well, Pallavi, you have offered to be our Indian correspondent for the upcoming presidential election. 100%. And we have a story that dropped into our laps that is on your beat.
Speaker 2
Yeah, I've been studying the WhatsApp polls and memes, you know, I've been locked into the auntie calls, you know what I mean? And this one popped up on my Twitter and it is a person who is an Indian man and he goes to a Trump rally dressed as Vivek Ramaswamy in that he is an Indian man in a suit. And he flew the Montana. Yeah, just by being brown. And then he walked in and then everybody was like, Oh my God, hey, Vivek, what's up? Are you the vague? And then he just introduced himself. People were asking to take pictures with him and he was just obliging everyone. They were all excited. The governor, or the Senator Matthew, what's his name? Matthew Whitaker, yeah, like recognized him as Vivek. And there were just, he was just like these white people's like super excited, like dream. Miss Montana, like addressed him and took a picture with him. And he tried to go on stage, which is insane, given the assassination attempt. But like the Secret Service asked for his press credentials right when he was about to. And then they kicked him out. And it's so funny because you know, they would have done that to the vague anyways, if it was the real debate. I'm sorry, no brown people allowed on stage right now. Right.
Speaker 1
Yeah, of course.
Speaker 2
But I just love that. I feel
Speaker 1
like the Secret Service has been shown lacking like a, you know, after the assassination, like obviously the assassination attempt was like wild. But yeah, like there was also like a right wing troll who just like walked up to Kamala Harris was just like really yeah oh my god how the fuck did she get that close um but anyways uh come on secret service let's see there there's this story that i guess is an old story but it just popped up on reddit again um about a guy who builds Google and Facebook $122 million and they like paid him. He's now in jail. He was, I believe, Lithuanian, but he just was like got broken to somebody's email. So like got figured out what like the invoicing process was who you emailed to get your invoices paid out and then was able to get the companies Google and Facebook just the via asking for it.
Speaker 2
see what's wrong with that. I've invested 30 million from my heart and TDZ. So I don't understand what the problem is.
Speaker 2
the same way, I've just been sending you guys. You're just asking nicely. You asked so nicely though. A thousand percent should not go to jail for this. I
Speaker 2
Or like those people who like are still on employee payroll, but like don't go into work for like 12 years. There was, think it was in some Asian countries.
Speaker 1
Cops? You mean police officers? Yeah,
Speaker 2
office. Exactly. That was great. But they should just allow them... If you get away with that, if you're in a Goliath situation, they should just let you keep those things. They should just let you get
Speaker 1
away with it. I agree. I agree. There should be a court of public opinion where they're like, do we just kind of be impressed by the balls it took to do this? This also added context for me for why companies are so constantly worried about phishing scams and making you change your passwords every two weeks is like, oh, this is what... It's not just that they get access to the shitty spreadsheets that are being sent around between the boring jobs of your company. It's that people are paying so little attention that they will pay $122 million, if you just ask them to.
Speaker 2
They're like, it happened to us. We don't want it to happen to you.
Speaker 1
We don't want it to happen. All right. And also some international news that a Russian chess champion has been arrested for smearing mercury on her opponent's chess pieces in an attempt to poison them. So this is we've had chess cheating. And now we're mad. I know what it's not letter
