Summary

This Halloween-themed episode of Lovett or Leave It examines Trump's authoritarian overreach, including his third-term ambitions, abuse of emergency powers for tariffs, extrajudicial killings in Mexico, political prosecutions of opponents, and crypto pardons. The show features comedians Steph Tolev and Daniel Webb in debates about ChatGPT erotica, celebrity breakup albums, and home robots, followed by dating horror stories.

Insights
  • Trump's rhetoric about a third term represents a serious threat despite constitutional barriers; the danger lies in congressional spinelessness enabling authoritarian behavior rather than Trump's actual legal capacity
  • Emergency powers abuse is a systemic vulnerability—Congress has ceded tariff authority to the executive and can reclaim it but chooses not to, enabling punishment of allies and manipulation of trade for personal grievances
  • Extrajudicial killings without evidence or transparency mirror authoritarian regimes (China, Iran) and represent a dangerous normalization of summary execution without due process or public accountability
  • Political prosecutions of activists and opponents signal weaponization of the justice system; dismissal of charges against some defendants reveals inconsistent application of law based on political targeting
  • Crypto pardons and SNAP benefit suspensions demonstrate coordinated use of executive power to reward allies and punish vulnerable populations as political leverage
Trends
Normalization of authoritarian governance tactics through incremental executive overreach and congressional abdication of constitutional responsibilitiesWeaponization of federal law enforcement and justice system against political opponents and activists as a governance strategyUse of emergency powers and tariffs as tools for personal grievance and business favoritism rather than legitimate policy objectivesErosion of due process protections through extrajudicial actions and summary executions without public evidence or accountabilityStrategic use of social safety net (SNAP) suspension as political coercion against opposing party rather than fiscal necessityCrypto industry alignment with political power structures through donations and pardons creating regulatory captureFederal election monitoring in blue states as pretext for delegitimizing results and socializing voter intimidation tacticsCongressional abdication of constitutional powers (tariff authority, emergency declarations) enabling executive unilateralism

This season's lineup is simple, but smart and easy with Quints. $50 Mongolian cashmere sweaters that feel like an everyday luxury and wool coats that are equal parts stylish and durable. Tommy, yesterday for reasons that don't matter, I was looking at what the highest mountains in the world are. And I was looking at the 100 highest peaks in the world. What percentage of them do you believe are contained in the Himalayas and the areas the mountain ranges surrounding the Himalayas? Mm. 51%. It's all of them. All of them. All 108 of the highest peaks, though. Tricky. It's actually interesting how you decide what is a peak versus what is just an ancillary smaller peak of a single mountain. And that's actually up for debate, which means that the mountains that are tallest in the world that are considered unclimbed is up for debate, because it's unclear at times whether you're talking about a separate mountain or a smaller peak of another mountain. But you know what? We'll never peak the savings at Quints. What about the underwater mountains? Well, that's the question. Where do you start? Right? I mean, look, there's a lot of people that have thought about, right? Where do you got it? Measuring it from the base. Where is that base, Tommy? Where is that base? You know, is K2 a grower or a shower? This is an ad for clothes. Quints cuts out the middleman to deliver premium quality at half the cost of other high end brands.

We've got a great show for you tonight. Seth Tollev is here. Daniel Webb is here. It's our Halloween episodes. We're going to have some thrilling debates, terrifying dates, and pleas from the audience. I'm going to be back with another episode of The Big Bang. I'm going to be back with another episode of The Big Bang. We're going to have some thrilling debates, terrifying dates, and pleas from the great beyond. But first, let's get into it. What a week. In a recent interview with The Economist, of course, Steve Bannon let us know that we can put our anxieties about the 2028 presidential elections to rest for the future is already written. Well, he's going to get a third term. So Trump 28, Trump is going to be president at 28, and we're going to get accommodated with that. At the appropriate time, we'll lay out what the plan is. But there's a plan, and President Trump will be the president in 28. Trump is a vehicle. I know this will drive you guys crazy, but he's a vehicle of divine providence. He's an instrument. Divine providence, maybe, if God is named in the Epstein files. At first, speaking to reporters on Air Force One on Monday, Trump wouldn't rule out a third term. I would love to do it. I have the best numbers ever. Am I not ruling it out? You'll have to tell me. Thankfully, if we toss out the 22nd Amendment, Democrats' biggest problem will no longer be figuring out how to convince ourselves that we love our best option. Our biggest problem will be convincing Barack Obama that he actually loves working really, really hard. And here's what's crazier, he misses it. Alabama Senator in the first recorded case of a person getting CTE from coaching football, in the first recorded case of a person getting Tubberville, suggested on Tuesday that if Trump has a secret plan to stay in office, he's into it. If you read the Constitution, it says he's not, but he says he has some different circumstances that might be able to go around the Constitution, but that's up to him. That's up to him, huh? The whole point of having a Constitution is that it's actually not up to him. That's what the Constitution is, a document that says it's not up to him. But boy, try explaining that to Tommy Tubberville, a dumb asshole. Okay. The 22nd Amendment of the Constitution reads, no person shall be elected to the office of president more than twice. It does not have any loopholes. There is no cheat code that would install Trump for a third term. It would require defying the Constitution one way or another. If he had refused to leave office, he could act as president behind a figurehead like the Queen's Regent for this baby queen. Photo of JD Vance for those listening. Or he could be installed as president through a back door if he's made, say, speaker of the House. And while we're on the subject of House speakers who love a back door, even Speaker Mike Johnson knows that the writing is on the wall, specifically the wall of the Library of Congress. Well, there is the 22nd Amendment. The president knows, and he and I have talked about, the constrictions of the Constitution, as much as so many of the American people lament that. I don't see a way to amend the Constitution because it takes about 10 years to do that. I don't see the path for that. Look, people are complicated. Every once in a while, just to mix it up, a bottom tries being atop. And then holds a press conference to rebuke the president. That's two. A day later, Trump acknowledged that he can't run for a third term, though he's been talking out of both sides of his mouth for months now. If you read it, it's pretty clear I'm not allowed to run. Stupid. He's actually referring to the latest MRI of his ankles, but also applies to seeking a third term. Bannon on this score is a perfect encapsulation of MAGA politics. We're being trolled and we're right to worry. It's a joke and it's serious. But it doesn't matter how serious Trump is. What matters is how serious we are. Trump will not be president in 2029. He will leave office. Presidential terms are like martinis. One isn't enough. Two is too many. And three makes you puke and hug strangers on the train. Besides, shut up. You're telling me that if Donald Trump is president in January 2029, you won't want to puke and hug strangers on the train? Thank you. Sometimes the best jokes must be fully explained. I'm going to take a moment and this will just be between us. There's a joke coming up later that's really going to require you to believe. And I'm not going to tell you what it is. I'm just letting them know that it's coming. And so far, I'm worried. I'm worried given where we're at right now that I'm not going to have you when we get there. And the problem is I bet someone at the office a sandwich that it will work. Now, this, what I've just done truthfully, what's cool is it won't, this is this happening now when we get to that joke later, it won't matter. It will work or it won't. It will live or it will die. But then we will remember what I said here and we will circle back to it to see if my energy about you will see. Besides, there's nothing about what Trump could do that should take our eyes off of what he's already doing right now. For example, he's continuing to abuse so-called emergency powers. Trump raised tariffs on Canada's goods by 10% because he didn't like a TV commercial that aired during the second game of the World Series, which is another one of those sentences that should open up a hole in the sky through which a giant arm comes down and hits a reset button of some kind. But nothing yet. The ad produced by the province of Ontario quotes a 1987 Ronald Reagan radio address in which he criticizes tariffs. I know I'm always saying it on this show and I'm sorry to be repetitive, but go off Ronald Reagan. The Ronald Reagan Foundation criticized the ad for using selective audio and video, which is true because it cuts off before Reagan says, anyway, age schmades. But if you listen to the full address, the spot accurately reflects Reagan's pro-trade argument, and of course Reagan was pro-trade. You can't get that much crack into black communities if you're blocking foreign imports. Speaking of presidencies dragged down by their own violent lawlessness in Latin America, on Monday Pete Hegseth announced that 14 people were killed in strikes against several boats off the coast of Mexico, the deadliest attack in Trump's ongoing campaign against alleged drug traffickers in the Pacific and the Caribbean. Shall we toast to a job well done? said Pete Hegseth to a four-star admiral who has a recurring dream about making Hegseth cry because Hegseth keeps falling off his tricycle and spilling eggs everywhere. Now here's the question. You can say yes and you can say no, and I want you to be honest. Did the person who bet me that that joke would fail, were they correct? Yes? Or no? She gets a sandwich. Let's face it. Let's face it. Fuck. Senator Rand Paul said Congress had not been briefed about the attacks, nor has Trump presented any evidence as to whether the people killed were involved in drug trafficking. And so far they have alleged that these people are drug dealers. No one said their name. No one said what evidence. No one said whether they're armed. And we've had no evidence presented. So at this point, I would call them extrajudicial killings. And this is akin to what China does, to Iran does with drug dealers. They summarily execute people without presenting evidence to the public. So it's wrong. I know I'm always saying this on this show, and I'm sorry to be repetitive. But go off, Rand Paul. Defense officials did give a classified briefing on the boat strikes to members of the House Armed Services Committee on Thursday, but said that they couldn't be sure exactly who the strikes had killed. Call me old fashioned, but I always felt that if you're going to execute someone, you should at least know their name, like walking up to the bride at the rehearsal dinner and asking how she knows everybody, but for war crimes. All the while here at home, Trump continues to add more and more names to his long list of political enemies. On Wednesday, the Justice Department indicted progressive House candidate Kat Abuguzale, along with five others for allegedly conspiring to impede ICE officers during a protest last month in Chicago. This is Kat Abuguzale, by the way. There she is. ICE agents are probably 50 times more likely to be injured by chronic lower back pain than by comrade Sabrina Carpenter. Abuguzale posted a video responding to the indictment. This is a political prosecution and a gross attempt to silence dissent. Say you can't sleep, baby. I know. That's that me, protesto. You can't sleep, baby. I know. That's that me, protesto. I don't know what kind of person you are waiting for Trump to arrest before you realize they will come for you too, but sound the alarm, we've reached the blondes. I interviewed Kat today for the Potsdam America YouTube. Kat used to work for Media Matters. Her job was watching Fox News all day. They have gone after one of the strongest, most resilient people alive. And I'm sure a lot of you have heard Kat on Terminaly Online. She doesn't deserve this. And there are a lot of examples just like it. Last week, a federal judge dismissed charges against Jaime Alberto Quintanilla Chavez, who the DOJ accused of forcibly assaulting, resisting, opposing, impeding, intimidating, or interfering with a federal officer engaged in the performance of official duties. The DOJ was seeking a penalty of up to 20 years. The judge threw out the case because it turns out that the agent scraped his arm when he punched a hole in the defendant's driver side window during an investigative stop. It's your fault that I hurt myself while punching through your window. Also, it's my wife's fault that I cheated on her. And that's why both of you are going to jail. Trump 2028. Along with targeting his enemies, deploying troops on our streets and punishing nations for personally insulting him, Trump also pardoned Zhang Penzhao, founder of the crypto exchange Binance and convicted money launderer, whose network the Justice Department said allowed money to flow to terrorists, cyber criminals, and child abusers. Zhao backed the Trump family's efforts to build a vast fortune in crypto, and now he's receiving his reward. Or as the Justice Department put it in their statement, Jia Yu see him, Jia Yu don't. Tasteless. White House spokesperson Caroline Leavitt said in a statement that the Biden administration's war on crypto is over. And with that, all the cyber drugs switched from war mode to peace mode, suddenly becoming very smooth and curvy. At root, the problem isn't just that Trump wants to be a dictator. We live under a contract that contemplates would be tyrants. The problem is that Congress is filled with spineless little freaks, and Trump knows that too. During a speech in Tokyo on Tuesday, the president said this about his big beautiful bill. I said put it all into one bill, and if we get it done, we're done for four years. We don't need anything more from Congress. Well, other than to stand there while I make fun of their ugly wives during cocktail hours. According to the New York Times, Trump has privately joked, I'm the speaker and the president. I can forgive a private joke, but what I can't abide is a joke about private, said Mike Johnson, trying to change the subject before withdrawing to his office to eat a whole banana in one bite. Three. Is it okay to keep calling him gay? I think so. And he is gay, but in the way 2021 Graham Plattner uses it. Okay. You know what's really gay? The house hasn't met in weeks. Johnson is refusing to swear in representative elect Adelita Grihalva, who won a special election in Arizona over a month ago, and not just because you know Johnson would absolutely butcher her name and end up calling her Adelaide Granola. It's because Grihalva would provide the final signature needed to force a vote on releasing the M. Steen files, and Johnson is hell bent on protecting Trump and a ring of pedophiles, as Jesus would do if he were in the same situation. The Constitution explicitly grants Congress the power to enact tariffs, but they've allowed Trump to abuse a law that grants him emergency authority, which Congress could withdraw at any moment, even as Trump uses tariffs to punish allies, seek business favors so global chaos, and raise prices for American consumers. And I know from experience, screaming, it's an emergency, doesn't let you do whatever you want. It doesn't even let you cut the bathroom line a third time. Last month, the Department of Agriculture posted a shutdown funding plan on its website and said they had $6 billion in contingency funds to continue delivering SNAP benefits. That's food assistance for poor kids and families. In fact, that's exactly what Trump did in his first term during the longest shutdown of all time so far. And that was great news because according to experts, poor kids actually need food in order to live. The USDA has now taken that plan off their website and slapped up a new banner that reads, the well has run dry, blaming Democrats for its decision to suspend SNAP benefits starting November 1st. They were refusing to send food aid to families that rely on it as a means to pressure Democrats. It's yet another example of the administration doing whatever it wants, regardless of the law, and it only underscores why Democrats were right to draw a line in the first place. As the shutdown continues, low-income families will start losing access to Head Start, rural airports, maybe being forced to close, flight delays at major airports will only compound, the pain is going to get worse, and now you can't even take Tylenol for it without RFK Junior jumping out from the backseat to ask if you're pregnant. I'm not pregnant, I just ate too quickly. Which brings us to election day. In California, we have Prop 50 on the ballot, which would allow our libtout legislator to counteract Republican plans to redraw their maps mid-decade to rig the midterms. Trump was hoping he could win without cheating, but Planae, blame autism on Tylenol, didn't move the polls like he was hoping. The Justice Department is dispatching federal election monitors to polling places in California and New Jersey ahead of Election Day. This is an obvious pretext to call the results into question. It's also a way to socialize us to election monitors when Trump sends federal agents to Blue Strongholds in 2026. But we've got to make sure Pam Bondi trying to intimidate voters in blue states is like paper straws or how every screen asks you to tip now. We'll never get used to it. Bitch, I'm at the dentist. So make sure to get your ballots in if you are in New York, New Jersey, or California. We've got a Supreme Court race in Pennsylvania at a public commission or election in Georgia. We've got to win big in 2025. We've got to turn on in 2026 because there are many ways in which we can lose even if we win. But the surest way for Trump and his allies to stay in power is to convince us that we cannot stop them. But that is just not true, at least not yet. And sorry if it is true by Saturday, we recorded this on Thursday. Up next, we've got stand-ups Daniel Webb and Steph Tollev, and they're here to sit down. Don't go anywhere.

And right now, I'll take all the help I can get, which is why I want to welcome Steph Tollev and Daniel Webb to the stage. Hi! Hi, hi, hi. Hi, hi, hi. I don't know. Awkward, awkward. Awkward, awkward. Come sit, come sit. Hi. Oh, hi. Welcome to the show. Both of you haven't had your on the show before. It's nice to meet you. You're offensive. I was like, this is weekly. I've never invited rude Bill. I know. Hey, Bill, what the fuck? I know the book. That's fucking rude, man. Hey, Bill, what the fuck, Bill? What the fuck, Bill? Hey, Bill, what the fuck? I accosted you at one Comedy Central party years ago, and now I don't get booked. Oh my God, you stole the pillow. I stole the pillow. We had a night. I? We had a night at that party. I ran barefoot through the sunset of San Francisco to escape the grasp of a very famous RuPaul's Drag Race drag queen. Because her six foot bon gave me the spins, and I was like, I can't have sex. I have to run out of here right now. And then when I got home, Steph was at the hotel. Where are you like, don't you have to center yourself? Like, she's in the bed. Oh yeah, when I'm too, we have the spins. If you put one leg down, it like centers you and you don't feel like you're spinning Someone's going, honestly, it helps. But then she had a Comedy Central pillow, just like under her. I was like, what the fuck, somehow you were in worship. I was mad. I went to the wrong hotel and didn't realize that there's a Koi pond in it. I'm like, I went, I went full Koi pond, not in the hotel where I was staying in full Koi pond. I go, I go up. I'm like, my key isn't working and come down the guys like there's two holiday ends. I'm like, oh, I guess there's doesn't have a pond in it. It was very drunk. That was great. God, I never, whenever I have having a night where I drank too much and have too much weed, I'm never like, boy, what a crazy evening of running from a drag queen. This will be for me. It's always I'm, I, whoever I'm with, I shut down and then eventually they realize something is wrong. And I say, we must leave this restaurant so that I can go home and write apologies. What's that about? Mental illness. Mental illness, mental illness. Now it's time for a segment we call is this good? There we are. So here's how it works. There are many confusing and confounding topics where it's hard to even know what to make of it. And so tonight we're going to randomly assign each of you the pro and con of something that's in the news and you'll help us debate whether or not is good. Okay. All right. And so first up, chat GPT erotica. We'll start. This will be. Oh, that sucks. So, so we have a coin here. One side says yes. The other side says no. Guess that yes will say pro and no will be con. We're going to flip it for you stuff. All right. Yes. I'm so you're, you're, you are going to argue. You are going to argue that chat GPT erotica is good. Daniel, you're going to argue that it is not good. 30 seconds. You have the floor. Well, as you've seen from that delicious photo, chat, you be these good for people like Elon Musk, nobody, no real human being wants to be with this man. Look at this claymation human being. This is helping only fans relax, take a weekend off. These guys can finally put their feet up and not be smothered by sick, disgusting pervert pig men. Beautifully said. This is helping the greater good get off porn, let the women rest. They have to let their vaginas rest. The end. Daniel, why is chat GPT erotica not a good idea? It's bad because first of all, it generates falsehoods like that is the shape of Elon Musk. Where's the dent and the man's declotage? The man is shaped like he swallowed a Cybertruck. Where's that part? And that hair is inaccurate. That looks more like a wig than plugs. Like how am I supposed to come to that? And then yeah, and chat GPT is erotica is also bad because the minute I blow my load, I'm in immediate danger of electrocuting myself. What? You don't shoot a huge load? Fuck y'all. We're editing this, right? This is live. We're live. Also, I think it's important when I'm on Grindr a lot and there's a lot of illiteracy when you're texting old and young people. I think I speak for lots of faggot pusses in the audience. And I think that chat GPT erotica will help people learn to spell all the bad words. Oh, that's so interesting. It's actually a good idea. I guess I don't really understand whether the erotica is just text space. I find it hard to believe that this culture of people are people that are enough with all this pornography. It's time for sexually enjoying the written word. You know, that doesn't strike me as the way it's going to go, but maybe I'm wrong. I don't know. Well, I mean, Gen Z doesn't even use vowels. So how are they even going to be able to read anything? Phone sex is back. Oh. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Maybe I'll get another job again. Like FaceTime Phone Sex? My friend was a phone sex operator in New York City. She, uh, and but she, if you know, if you want young and slutty, if you want old and sassy, if you're whatever the button you push one, two, three, four, they all went to Jane. She was all the categories, right? Like so she, they cue it. Yeah. If you're like, fucking old and crotchety back. You want to let me jerk your dick off. You know, she knew she had to, she had to adjust. Well, whatever the kink was that you wanted, right? Like if you wanted the housemaid or you want to, you know, I can only do like ghoul or golfer. I want the golfer. Oh, I'm ready for you. Woo. Well, the cemetery sex line. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what that's going to do. Spooky is spooky sex line. We want to be super sexy. Spooky is spooky sex line. We want to be scared and horny. Let's do it tomorrow. Yes. Well, I have a shovel. Just one fact to share. Open AI acknowledged this week that around 560,000 chat, GPT users exhibit psychosis or mania and 2.4 million people are confiding suicidal thoughts to chat GPT. So yeah, I think it's good if they can have sex with it. I'm going to give the point to Daniel. I am. I am. Fuck you guys. They don't like that. I am. I thought the point about not getting electrocuted was a good one. Next up, airing out your insane husband via song, i.e. Lily Allen's new album, is it good? I'm going to flip it for Daniel whether he'll take the pro or the con. He's the con. That stinks. Oh, because it's so good. But that's what makes it a challenge. Totally, yeah. Have you listened to it? I have. I haven't. All right. Daniel, tell us why that a breakup album like Lily Allen's, it's not good. It's not good because this man is an actor. And actors have no self-esteem. They barely know what to say without a script. Have you seen this man? He's shaped like a Harry Armoire. He needs all the confidence he can get. And I believe he has a new film or movie or creative project coming out. And like all of us, the industry has turned on its head and we're all scrambling for work. So I think in the decent, and he is a white straight guy. And I think all those guys need a lot of grace and patience and understanding. And I actually know someone who knows someone who banged him while he was dating Lily Allen. I do. I do. I do. Not in real time. I just found this out. I would have spilled the beans. And frankly, if any, like it should have just been done as a Tori Amos album. They should have collaborated and then she really would have sank that guy. See, I like that idea. That's good, right? Yeah. Like a Gundam, you know? Leave him alone. Yeah, leave Brittany and David Harbor alone. Alone. So why do you take the opposite view here? Uh-huh. Why? Why is it good? Yeah, this guy can suck our whole fucking assholes. Are you fucking crazy? I'm sick and fucking tired of these white straight men cheating on all these fucking hot babes that are bringing in all the fucking money. Suck our fucking dick. If you want to be a fucking pig, it should be public. Every fucking woman on the planet should be smearing a man who puts them down and cheats on them. Fuck you. You want to cheat? You want to break up? Get a fucking divorce? You disgusting fucking pig? You fucking deserve it all? I hope his career is fucking ruined. Let's all go out and fucking buy Billy Ellen merch. Wow. Just to reiterate, my perspective was chosen for me and now it wasn't an honest feeling. I was just playing the game. You know what's crazy? There was a study and even if people know that your position was randomly assigned, they will still retain animosity towards you for having argued a position they don't agree with. Yes. Yeah. I know. I just remembered it. I just remembered that study. David Harbour and Lily Allen did an architectural digest tour, which I really recommend people go back and watch. Please, it is. First of all, it was cursed from the—it wasn't like people were like, I couldn't have known when you watch that fucking thing, it is a cursed text. Every frame of it, you know it is edited to try to make them look good, right? It's not like the architectural digest is like, we're going to really fuck these two, right? It's a house tour. It's not an expose. And yet the energy of the two of them walking around, every individual item, you're like, that's a beautiful thing. Like this is a home, a fancy, beautiful home. And yet all together it's like screaming like, not good, bad, bad vibes, bad vibes, pulsating with bad energy. Okay, I gotta watch it. Have you seen it? No, I haven't seen it. Oh, it's so good. They have a carpeted bathroom. What? It wasn't going to work. Just the pee drips everywhere. Are you serious? As a piss soaked rug. Sick. Oh yeah, it's a mold thing. Stinks. There's a Ruby Wax interview with Liza Minnelli and David Guest. Was that her weirdo husband? It is the strangest interview I've ever seen. And he takes her to Cartier and buys her like a $30,000 necklace, but she has to make out with them before. And they're on camera like David Gaston. They get with me? It's so, they's like, you love, like it's a gross little like, it's so gross. And Liza plays the game. It's so crazy. She kissed that gay man on the mouth. Disgusting. I couldn't even think about it. It's hard to trust. Okay, next one. Oh, I think, um, I think Daniel won that one again. What the hell? I clearly won that one. No, shut up. Leave him alone. It was such a hard position that he put it. Whatever, mine was good. It was really good. I was heated. It was really good. You were invested in it. I know. You were invested in it. Those songs are good. They are good. I like the parts of the songs where she's just like, and, um, here's the voicemail and I'll just read it to you. You're like, okay, I guess with a melody behind it. Sure. But you don't stop talking. That song is just this little sing song in solo like, you don't stop talking. So good. Yeah. I've actually never heard it, but, uh, I guess we'll go home and listen to it. You have a lot of content to consume. I really do. I'll get on charge of the T this second I get home. Let's do one more. Uh, this week, the Palo Alto company, one X technology revealed their new humanoid for the home, Neo. Let's take a look. Neo is a humanoid companion designed to transform your life at home. It combines AI and advanced hardware to help with daily chores and bring intelligence into your everyday life. The Neo home ribut available now for $20,000 or $499 per month reportedly combines AI and robotics to automate your home housekeeping. Do your chores like Siri can and wash dishes. Uh, let's see, uh, Steph, let's see if you're going to get pro or con. Pro take it away. I mean, clearly we all need one of these in our home. I'm sick and tired of bending over and picking up a dish out of the dishwasher. You know, all these LA houses, all these dishwashers we all own. I don't, I, I'm too busy editing my own clips. I don't have time to do housework. I have to edit my podcast and my Instagram clips. All that. I'm sick. I would like to come home and have somebody in the companion. Nice. I'll put a wig on them. Couple, couple googly eyes. Yeah. Maybe put on a strap on who knows what I'm going to do with the guy. I might have my way with him if he's in my house, trade him to walk my dog gives me more time to relax my vagina just like those only fans. See applause break. That was beautiful. Um, just one note and just, I just, I want, and I think the argument you made is fantastic, but I just one thing that you should just keep in mind for is that at first, Nia will be remotely operated by human engineer. So there's a man in my house operating this. The man is remote, but looking out through the eyes. That's even better. That's cool. Oh, that making that guy, I would be the worst person you have to be before. I'd be like, it's me again. I would be so awful. That guy would hate his job. Oh, that's good. That makes it better. Daniel, why is this not good? Okay. I enough with the met. Is it ice? What the fuck is that? Is it a sea of music video? What am I watching? He fences. He obviously fences, but does he clean? Yeah. I listen, I'm all about letting faceless, unidentified men into my apartment. Never with this kind of lighting though. It would never be this lit. How often are they doing the dishes? Do you find what was your question? Are they helping with the dishes often? The dishes are later. You got to earn the dishes. You don't kink your clean. That's what you got to do. That's a good idea. Can you kink your clean? No, it's just a good thing. My kink is you coming over and cleaning my house. Does that work? Can you come all over my dishes and then clean them? Okay, long story short, I don't want this person in my house because I think that they're ice and also I don't really see a hole. Oh, I'd make one. Oh, that's an easy fix. What the fuck was that song playing? Why is Ain't No Sunshine when she's gone playing in the advertisement? This should clearly be a Daft Punk song. What are we doing wrong? Anyway, if this guy started telling jokes, I'd let him clean my house. Oh, that get out. Here's what I don't understand. I think he made some really important points. Here's what I don't understand. This is going to be a robot that lives in your house, potentially constantly operated by some stranger watching your home through a camera because it can help you with chores, including loading and unloading the dishwasher. And laundry. And laundry. Now, does everyone agree that in terms of piece of technology that's almost good is the dishwasher? Right? It's almost good. It's kind of good. It's not totally reliable. It does often breaks, drawers, nothing. It's like, how is it that we're already at robot to load the dishwasher, but not at good dishwasher? You guys all have dishwashers? I have not had one out here in time. I am the dishwasher. Yeah, I'm like the fuck. That's me. If that robot could clean the space between my refrigerator and my stove, I would hire that son of a bitch in a heartbeat. But also, who's cleaning in all white? I'm really confused with the concept of this. Like, where's the design team is clearly heterosexual. I have a feeling that the ideas behind it are not sort of home cleaners, like really thinking through it all. Okay. Hey, wait, your special built queen is on Netflix. Wait, did I win that one? Yeah, you won. So competitive for no reason. I've already lost, but I'm like, did I win? No, you got to have, I like that. You got to have that. You have the red in your eyes. Thank you. In this business. Built queen on Netflix. Yes. And the Keepin' Amar. I've seen it. It's great. Two of you. Thank you. Wow. I need more views. All of you go home and watch it tonight.

It's the week of Halloween. And since there's nothing scary than opening one's heart to love, we wanted to plumb the most desperate depths of romance in a segment. We're calling 28 dates later. Here's how it works. We have a board here with 13 terrifying date scenarios. The spookiest number, 13. We will each pick one that we think is actually kind of manageable compared to the other and explain why. And we'll go until we arrive at the final dating horror boss. Daniel and Steph, before we start, what's your most bone-chilling dating experience? Not on this, right? Not on the board. Ideally. A man bit my neck mole off during sex. It's, yes, it's no longer there. I had to get it started. I knew them all. You knew me pre-mole, launched in squishy. It was the size of a junior man, very large. And I felt blood drizzling down my neck. You ass! You ass! And I went to the bathroom and it was like gushing blood and I was like, you have to leave. And it was like dangling off. And then when he tried to leave, I was like, you have to go. And he's like, why? And I'm like, get the fuck out of here. You're d-dressing my mole. Go. And then when he went, this is the worst part, when he went to leave, he went to put a tanzer on my neck. I'm like, goodbye, choke. I'm like, get the hell out of my house. You're eating my mole, man. Go. And then I went to go to the mole doctor the next day because it was like flittering off. And then they had to get it surgically removed. Mole money, mole problems, am I right? But... Hey, and when you say mole doctor, you mean a dermatologist? Yeah, I guess that's their call. But I did put mole doctor into my Google maps. Well, because there's three things that could be to me. It could be one, a doctor, a dermatologist. Two, it could be a mole, that's a doctor. Like a big cartoon mole that treats like... That would be funny. Kind of like, it's so great, but I'll help. And then... Or it could be like a doctor of moles. And like, I guess I'll treat a person. Oh, you mean like a professor of moles? Yeah, sure. Like a vet. Oh. It does, I guess it could also be like a mole. A PhD of moles. Yeah, like a, you know, like a unit of stuff, like a mole of carbon. I don't remember what that is. What a mole is a number, have you heard it? Six times ten to the 23rd, shut up. Too slow, bitch. Mole is a number, have you heard it? Six times ten to the 23rd. Much larger number, two, comprehend. Wait, that's all I heard was, I went to the mole doctor, and the mole doctor, right, that's all. He told me what to do, he said... Anyways, the mole's gone, but the hair still grows. Oh, shut up, no easy hairy mole. Turn on the fucking house lights. You know when like you swallow a penny, and you have to make sure it gets out? I hate that. But it's like... It happens a lot? God, I hate when that happens. I would just wonder if he was worried if he expressed the mole. No, he didn't even notice. Is that too much? No one's wondering what happened to the mole? No, the mole, they sent it in to get tested. No cancer. You got it back? No, they sent it, I needed it back. Oh, it was dangling. Yeah, but they took it off and then sent it to a lab. Why is the taking it off the grossest part? I don't know why. And then the funniest part was, I was trying to be really funny in the doctor's office, and I go, can I get a mole man alone? And he... The world, he thought I was serious and went to leave. I'm like, I don't need to be alone with my mole and say goodbye to it. He thought I was fucking deranged. Like, I already was like, oh man, bit it off. And he was like, what? Like, the whole thing was already strange and then I just kept adding onto it. But you said, mole man? I said, mole man. That's hilarious. He literally went, oh, I'm sorry, I went to close the door. Yeah, it didn't get the laugh it deserved in the room. So, I think like when you're bitten by a person, you have to make sure you know where that person goes because you need to check their brain for rabies. He could be dead this man, I don't know. There's no follow up, I never spoke to him again. Yeah, that's right. I mean, I feel like that's part ways. That's like so intimate. Let's try our second date. I'm good, I'm good. I have no more moles, but they'll find something to nibble off like them. Disgusting. I didn't want this. Daniel, do you have a dating story like that? I hope not. No, I mean, as lots of gross things have like certainly entered my mouth, but I've never swallowed like a, my current boyfriend, I didn't realize it at the time, but I found his hearing, his hoop hearing in my bed later because I'd ripped it out in the, in the yes. And we had only hooked up like once or twice so he didn't say anything. With the skin? I ripped it out. Oh my God. No, I work hard, but that's not my story. My story is one time, I invite, sometimes when you invite a gay man over to the house, some things have to happen before the happening happens, right? What? Hi, Gene, but I'm a top surprise prize. I know, fuck you. Anyway, and this guy, it's not unusual for someone to come over and ask to use the, go in the restroom, right? For a minute or whatever. Everyone should, doesn't matter who you are, who you're with. Go rinse your fucking face. Yeah, fuck a wash your ass. Clean your mole. So he, and I have a small apartment, very small apartment with very thin walls. So it's hard to ignore when someone's in the bathroom and he wasn't in there for like a normal, I don't know, what was it? Was it take you to do five? You sure? Four. Anyway, what? Just 40, 30, yeah, five minutes. In and out, right? In and out. The guy's in there for like 10 minutes. I've, I've set a playlist to fuck to and I'm running out of the hit. So I'm trying to put more, add more because he's taking so much time. And it was like 15, somewhere in the 15 to 20 minutes is when he finally, and you know, you, I have respect for him. He's preparing. So I want to give him his time. And then he comes out and he has clearly cut banks. What? No. He cut. Daniel. Banks. I had long hair. This is worse than the mole. He had long, I had, and the weirdest, the worst part is the scissors I had in my bathroom are the tight, they're manicurying scissors. They're the little, those, he cut bang. Like maybe they were here and he trimmed them to there because all of a sudden that was, he was shared. It is nuts. That's crazy. Yeah. That's grosser than the mole. I swear to God. A man with bangs is hideous. No offense. What? Uh, and so do you, do you say, Hey, did you get a haircut? So you want a bang? Ah, but here's the thing. He didn't clean the hair out of the, That's what I'm saying. It wasn't like, Oh, was his buckling? Well, that was the other thing. Yeah. You trim back there? Well, they both had the same part. It also had bangs. He cut bangs on it. Is there a generous reading of it where it's like, he walks into the apartment blown away by your handsomeness says, I got, I feel self-conscious. I got to do something to spruce it up. I'm going to go in the bathroom. I think he was like, I don't think I can fuck this dude. And he cut bangs to blind himself so that he could just go without having to look at me. Thank you for not laughing at that because you can't think. And you're still in touch. Yeah. No, I, that's the one time I didn't like go the whole way. I was like, you're just going to have to, well, whatever, you know, we just did like a couple of bases and then I kicked them out. Get your bangs out of my head. Well, the thing is it was just like the apartment was too small for bangs. You need higher ceilings for that kind of shit. And that's a statement. Like you wouldn't have matched with him via the banks. Well, it would be like, what if I just went, excuse me, I'll be right back and I came out with a mustache on. You'd be like, what are you doing? It was nuts. You did a mustache. I did. Slowly changing your look throughout the evening would be such a fun idea. Really throw someone off. All right. Um, Steph, why don't you kick us off? Uh, you can choose something from the board. You think you can, that isn't as bad as future things to come. Okay. And it's tell us why. Well, not okay. Oh, I guess this is a bad office. You 25 bucks gift certificate to chilies after sex. What's wrong with that? This fucking slap. What are you talking about? Are you kidding me? I'd love this. So that's great. This is great. I'm saying that's actually my story also. That is, it is. I'd be like, thank you so much. I fucked it all. It was in Austin, Texas. And at the end of it, you know, when you're, you have like the, the table by the, with all your mail on it, he goes, Oh, hey, your birthday's coming up, right? Cause for some reason when we were fucking, I mentioned my birthday, he goes, Oh, here, and he pulled out a $25 gift certificate to chilies and goes there. Enjoy. And I spent it. Yeah. Awesome. Awesome. Yeah. Exactly. 100%. And is psychologically different than if he had handed you $25? I mean, I earned it either way. I'm for sure. And did not mean to imply otherwise. But if someone was like, Oh, it's your birthday. Here's $25 cash. You'd be like, this is weird. I'm not saying a chilies gift card after fucking someone is in a little strange, but it has a joy to it. No, I see. It has fun to it. I see because like $25 chilies dollars is enough. But if you just gave me $25 cash, that is not enough for the work I just did. It's also silly. It's so goofy. It's so goofy. This is a goof. This is a funny goof. Yeah. Chili's. I never went back. Yeah. You just went back. No, I mean to chilies. I fuck that dude a bunch, but I never, I never went to chilies again. All right, Daniel, you pull something from the board. Okay. I, okay. It says their X is crazy is it's a red flag. It's not scary, but that's a red flag. For sure. Are we just talking about fucking or date? Sure. I'm sorry. It's whatever you want it to be. Yeah. You're never supposed to bring up an X on a date. That's insane. But that's just, that's what is the game. We're trying to see what's not pulling things off to say why we think other things on the board are worse. We're defending things. Okay. That's not so bad to get to the worst thing possible. All right. That's just, I think. Yes. Yes. Yes. I'm going to go to, wait, there's a, that's your story. That's me. Oh, I'll do, I'll do this one. Doesn't believe in sunscreen. Oh, doesn't believe in sunscreen. How many people here were sunscreen today? How many? Oh, you reapplied five times. Well, that guy in the front has to. How many people? This guy better be wearing it right now. Yeah. How many people here didn't apply sunscreen today? Most people here. So here's my question. Everybody in here who did not and said, you don't believe in sunscreen, but doesn't wear sunscreen. Do you believe in sunscreen? I know you say you do, but there's a lot of people who say all kinds of things and then their behavior is the opposite. So really ask yourself if you actually believe in sunscreen. I don't think you actually do because if you did, you'd wear it every day, but you don't. I also have questions about it. It's so gross when you put it on. I don't like how it feels. That's why I don't like reaching into bags or having, you know. Reaching into bags. I don't like the feeling of things when you touch it, when you put your hands in a bag and it touches the top of your hand. It's like a box. What kind of bag? Any bag. Any bag. Any bag. I don't like reaching into any bag. Like a suitcase? I rip every bag open. If I get delivery food, I rip the bag open. I rip every bag open. Spill it out. Don't reach in. Bad feeling. Bad feeling. Some screen when I was a little boy, my family went to club med. You know what club med? I don't know how familiar people are with club med. And whenever we went to these places, they would try to put me in the camp with the other kids and there are joyful, wonderful children that can make friends anywhere. I am not among them. And so I would just sit by myself all day until it was time to get picked up. And they would always give you ham and ham. I don't eat that. So there was one day where they were going to put on a show for the other parents and they dressed up all the kids as little clowns, little tiny clowns. And they were like, we're going to put makeup on all the kids. And I said, please don't do that. And they said, it'll be fine. And they started applying makeup onto my face. I lose touch with reality. Come to screaming, crying, demanding help because I had thought that makeup was poison and I would lick my lips and then die of poison from something being on my skin. And so they washed off all the makeup, but I still had to do the little clown performance with the other children. And so there is a video that exists of 10 to 12 children in full clown makeup, except for me, who looks like Heath Ledger's Joker dancing. And they're like, put both your hands in these bags. You're like, no. And my point is, how could not believing in sunscreen be a red flag when these are the kind of stories I'm telling on a first date? All right, Dan, you're up. Being ghosted is not scary. I think it's a compliment. I love when people don't want to waste my time. It's great if you think it's wrong and you're going to disappear on me later. It's efficient. At this point too, it's also like it's so, it's so done. Now, like when I, when my first was only dating apps, it was so upsetting. Now it's like, this is just common practice. Yeah. So it's not even like it's like, who cares? Also, gay men do that. You come, you leave. You know what I mean? That's it. It's like you were never, it's just a vapor. It's also that person that you don't want them in your life. That's a fucking pathetic loser. So it's like, who cares? Do you ghost? Have you ghosted? I never ghosted. I always text, even if it was awful, a big, hey, nice meeting you. I didn't feel a vibe. Tata. Like dating. Except the mole man. Except the mole man. Wow. No, if I was dating someone, no, I've never done that. Yeah. No, no, no. All right, let's get to the worst ones. Let's pick what we think is like the weed. Can someone just put Baxical on there? That's disgusting. I have a worst one. Okay. Let's pick. Okay. Okay. Getting matching tattoos because your head over heels. I've had this matching taco on my leg. This is me getting it removed. This is 10 sessions. Take a fucking look, audience. That's 10 fucking sessions of my skin getting fucking grilled off and I can't get fucking rid of it. I've had this for two fucking years as tattoo. Never get a matching tattoo with anybody in your life. It's hell on earth. When you, when you, if you've got a tattoo removed, it looks like fucking meatloaf for two weeks. They like drill it off. It's a nightmare. Can I ask you a question? Why would you, so your option- Mental illness. That's why. No, for sure. That's why. That's it. But did you consider turning it into something else? I can, but it's not, it's not light enough yet. So I'm not, I'm at the point where I'm like, I, because it's like- Whoa, was it? It's a taco. It's so stupid. I fucking hate, yeah, it's stupid. But like in one session, instead of 10 sessions, just do one and make it an empanada or something. Just change it. Like- No, it's getting, it's like two years. And I can't feel it. It's like numb there. I'm like, you could like slice that right now. Do you think it would feel different enough if you added rice and beans and called it the platter? Make it a combo plate. Put a chimichanga next to it. Oh God. Wait, let's wait. Just last, last note. Said, let's, let's call this one the last one and the worst one. Makes you hold their gun after sex. Oh yeah. Did that happen to you? That happened to me, yeah. Yeah, yeah. No, no, no. It was bad. It was bad. I had a bad, I have a nice boy for now who loves me. He's also shooting McGavin's nephew. Hot stuff. Anyways, happy Gilmore. Nobody cares. It looks exactly like him. That's what I'm mentioning. I'm fucking shooting McGavin. That's what I'm saying. That's cool. Yeah. He, after sex, he's like, hey, check this out. Goes under his bed, brings up this, this box, opens it up and he goes, hey, check. And I was like, naked. Just like holding this man's gun and is like running out of apartment. It was terrifying. It's so interesting. And I think this is where we have to leave it because we simply must. On this I note. Because it's like, I'm sure Daniel's horror stories from Grindr would take the paint off the walls of this theater. But at the end of the day, these are gay men. They are not straight men. And I just, it is inconceivable to me to bring a straight man into my bedroom without a background check, putting in a quick call to the fucking precinct to say, call, check on me. Again, I do have a boyfriend who loves me. We've been together for two years. It's very nice. And you get more of a race. It could be just sort of like a curly haired cartoon person, your taco. It's, it's, it's, it's giving Peter. It has a lot of, it has a lot of roads that can go. It's giving grilled cheese right now. It could be a goldfish. That would be good. We're getting a cover up. We're getting it. You know, I think it's beautiful. And let me tell you why. I do because when, when, when I was a kid and I saw people at tattoos, I thought, wow, how can anyone get a tattoo? Life is so long. And the older you get, you're like, of course you get tattoos. Life is so short. And I think that's kind of interesting because it was a moment in time. And that's who you were. And it doesn't need to be ashamed about you made your choice. I don't have any tattoos, but the one I am going to get as soon as I find, as I got, I want a Dunian Burke purse, you know, with the mallard and I want it on my hip with the strap going over, but I have, I have to find the actual physical matching bag so I can take it on and put it off and it's still there. So I'm going to get a tattoo. My friends and I are going to Croatia this summer and there's this little place that has all these really interesting sort of skull tattoos. We're going to get a little skull tattoo. We'll be right back. Hey, don't go anywhere. There's more of Love It or Leave It coming up. Love It or Leave It is brought to you by Helix.

Cricket Con is your chance to join some of the smartest organizers and politicians in America to strategize debate and commiserate about where we go from here. There will be panels, conversations, workshops, live tapings of strict scrutiny hysteria and our friends of the pod favorite, Terminaly Online. I am hosting a panel with Hasan Piker, Simone Sanders Townsend, Tim Miller and Jessica Tarlov called Are We Having Fun Yet? About How Democrats Can Lose Their Downer Image. I also have a one-on-one conversation with Senator Ruben Gallego about how Democrats can win on immigration and how to run a local race when all politics can feel national. There aren't many tickets left. Really are about to sell out. So go to cricketcon.com please. All right. Bruce Springsteen, fans are up in arms following the release of the new biopic Springsteen, Deliver Me From Nowhere, which depicts the singer saying his favorite hot dog condiment is Mustard, whoever Springsteen publicly hates Mustard, as seen in this post by Twitter user GenZ Bruce Fan. I don't like it on my hot dogs. I don't like it on my sandwiches. No. This guy sells out. That's what he's saying. Also, first of all, if you've never been to a Bruce Springsteen concert, they're four hours long. It's all mustard time. It's that. It's so funny that there is a video of him talking at length about how much he hates Mustard in the movie. He's like, I'll talk with Mustard, please. I got him. Yeah, that's what a Bruce show is. It's not. I think he needs to have the same cognitive test that Trump just did. That didn't make sense. Draw a con, Bruce Springsteen. All right. You need, if you have ham, you need mustard. But here's, I'll say this, if you have enough mayonnaise, you don't need anything. Who said, ooh? I'm gonna meet you in the alley. Amen to mayo. That's a good, yeah. Oh, ew, grow up. Mayonnaise is great. Don't pretend otherwise. So somewhere in my early 30s, I decided to just intentionally start pronouncing it mayonnaise. Mayonnaise. Mayonnaise. See, look how happy that may be. How old were you? How old were you when you found out you could dip fries in it? Oh, late. Oh, 20. Late. I was so old. I was like 19. I was like, 19. I was like, 19. I was like, 19. I was like, 20. I was like, 20. I was like 19. I was like, 19. I was like, 20. I was like, 20. I was like, 20. I was like, 20. I was like, 20. One second we call actually Bruce Springsteen hates mustard. Here's how it works. We're going to share one minor detail that they ought to get fucking right in our biopics. Okay. All right. To the wheel. Let's spin it. Stef, what's one detail that the biopic needs to get right about you? I don't actually hate my big labia. I talk a lot about it in my acts. I've seen my Phil's Queen special. And people, because I talk about a lot, a lot of women tell me about labiaplasty and women come at me and like, you know, and I just, you know, my boyfriend doesn't mind it, I don't mind it, men have never complained. Guess what? I'll slap it across, you have no idea I'm talking to a guy, what's with you? You're like, I don't know what she's referring to right now. I don't know. It's sort of like a prolapse. Yes. Wait, wait. That is a medical term. That is a medical term. Putting the hell in hell, man. No, what I was actually, what was really interesting about it honestly is the way that your whole demeanor and energy changed. And then it was like, it was like. You thought I was going to be serious. No, it was that, it was that, it was that you're, the whole like kind of goblin thing you do fell away. And then the real person was there being like, actually it's cool. I like that. I like that. I like that. I feel like I was, I appreciated the. Thank you. Two women applauded it. They're like. Now I forced that. They're like, they're like, disagree, be ashamed. You're wrong to not be ashamed. Let's spin it again. I just wanted to keep landing on staff. I know. I was like, I can't have that. Daniel, what's the detail? You'd like your biopic to get right. I want my biopic to get right. The fact that I am actually on Lily Allen side. Can we please make that make sure people know that? That I don't like her fucking gross cheating husband. Don't look at me like that. You don't believe me either. Put that, that's a chapter title. That's not just a side. I want that to be Daniel. We're just going to cut this. I think the whole thing we're just going to let it. We're going to let what you said earlier. Stay. I love Lily. I love Lily. Leaping all those. I love Lily. I'm going to say it over everything you say. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. Big, stranger things for Sam, I'm like, isn't it crazy that stranger things still happens every, I don't know, like two to three years? It's crazy. I've never seen an episode. Oh, really? I watched the first season, I thought it was done after that. I think it's the- The monster came and the monster left, and I was like, it's over. Do you remember in COVID, they had the immersive experience where you could go to the stranger thing in a parking garage? Didn't no one else do that? I did. I think you fell for something. No. There were actors, and they were acting, but I hadn't seen a single episode, so I didn't know what the fuck was going on. Yeah, I'm okay with it. The only thing that needs to still be on television is designing women. That's the only thing that needs to still be on television. Thank you. Yeah, I love designing women. Delta Burke.
