Plunge in border crossings could blunt GOP attack on Biden
"A new poll shows some support for changing the number of immigrants and asylum seekers allowed into the United States. About four in ten adults who responded to an Associated Press north center for public affairs research survey say the level of immigration and asylum seekers should be lowered about two in ten, say they should be higher, and about a third want the numbers to remain the same. There has been a sharp drop in illegal border crossings since December following president Joe Biden's announcement that Mexico would take back Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans, under a pandemic era rule that denies migrants the right to seek asylum as part of an effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19, but at the same time the U.S. has agreed to admit up to 30,000 per month of those four nationalities on humanitarian parole if they apply online, enter at an airport and find a financial sponsor.

"It's not just aging that John Waters doesn't relish. He makes the mundane details of living in a body seem grotesque. As he explored through his novel's main character, who absolutely hated all of the functions that keep you alive. I am like Marcia a little, I resent that I have to have a bowel movement. It's the only good thing about being dead. You never have to go through that again. Can you tell me why? Because you have no choice. I didn't think it up. Why do I have to do it? Even sex, I didn't think it up. Why is that in me? Well, I have no choice but to do things. Do you enjoy eating? Yes, but I wish I didn't have. I mean, you know, it's why do you have to eat? It's this whole thing that you have no choice over. You can not really decide not to do that. Marsha has figured it out as much as she can. She only has little pellets that shoot out. So she doesn't even have to wipe. And she has no odor. She has no B or she has no odor in any way because she wants to smell like nothing. I thought the detail about not having to wipe was quite evocative. And the right kind of whole grain cracker and it's all taken care of. Well, and I also think you should never, ever leave your house and do that. So even though when they talk about different kind of bathrooms, well, I think no one should ever go to the bathroom, except when you're in your house and the privacy of your own home and train yourself. And if you can't do that, stay home. When I see people go on the bathroom on an airplane, I think, God, how can you go in that room? You're so disgusting. Even in first class or disgusting. Oh, so you going back to battle movements in your resentment of bowel movements. The idea that you don't like something having to do something that you didn't think up. This idea of I don't want to be told to do something. Do you chafe at being told what to do? Generally. I like to tell myself what to do. Yeah, that's not being told what to do. It depends on the tone again. Yes. If I agree with it, fine. Yes, but I'm not many people tell me what to do. And writing a novel for the first time, knowing that you didn't have to cast it, knowing that you didn't have to find where you were going to shoot that scene. Did it allow you to be more wild? It allowed me to go into more detail about people's obsessions and how they feel and feelings. I didn't have to show everything. I didn't have to have them say it out loud to get it. So there was a lot more inner turmoil that I could deal with. And develop and go even deeper into their obsessions, but all the people that are obsessed in liar mouth believe they're normal. They all think they're right. They think they're on a mission and a few of them have humor about themselves. And that's always the kind of people that amazed me. Like, how could you go out looking like that? You know, did you look at a mirror? But people look at me and think that. And this is the last question because I know you have to get to Fox News, which I just love this transition. I love this transition in your life right now. You use the word obsessions there, which I think is interesting. Is that kind of like when you think about what is this thing that this person can't let go of? Is that the organizing? Yeah, to me, it's like so interesting to me like, why are they so obsessed with that one thing? Why can they not do it another way? Why can't they see that it's unreasonable? And that is all people that are obsessed or cult like behavior or people that are so driven into one way that they get detoured out of normal life or normal emotions and those kind of people always have fascinating me. Are you one of those people detoured out of normal life? No. Well, am I in normal life? It depends what that means when I'm on tour. I always think, can I walk into the other go outside for a minute where I'm not on TV or going into the next thing? But I don't live that life all the time. That is my normal life when I'm on a tour. So I think I live a normal life for me in my position and what I do in the world, I have worked 76 years to make it as normal by that I mean not causing me internal grief. A certain satisfaction, you've worked it out with yourself about what you expect can happen. What is realistic to believe in what's going to happen in that day?

"This is death sex and money from WNYC. I'm Anna sale. I will tell you, John Waters makes you feel good. He likes talking and makes it feel like he likes talking to you, which makes you feel interesting. Like he's your friend. So it makes sense that he has a lot of friends. He makes them easily, and he takes good care of them. I don't trust people that don't have old friends. Something's a matter of them if they don't. And they last longer, even than your family, 'cause they're your age. When you think about your closest friends, like your closest most intimate circle right now, are they fellow creative people who make art or are they people? One? Yes, they are, but one is my best friend, pat Moran, she's a casting agent, but I've known her forever in a room. She did the wire. She doesn't mean stuff. Dennis dermody, my dear dear friend who's a horror film Buffy also has a cinema blog and the Fremont's up here. He used to work for Andy Warhol, they both did. Yes, they are. But I have lots of other ones that are not in the arts at all. And they mostly all live in Baltimore. How did your old friendships shift during the period of isolation? They didn't shift at all. Did I still? We talked all the time and sometimes I don't see them all the time anyway for both work and I'm in a different city. The only thing that shifted is I didn't have my annual Christmas party and I still am not having it. I don't know 200 people in my house without mass drinking, I'm not ready for it. Will I ever have that party again? I don't know. And that to me, the one I had in Baltimore was my Baltimore party. There were people there that have helped me or I've known to my whole life. I only see, I'd say half the people that are at that one time a year now at the party. And I know I'll probably never see them again. We're still in touch them, but I'll miss that, but I ain't dying for that. You know, I'm not gonna have honest, I'm not comfortable for that yet. Will I go back to that? I hope, but I don't know. Are you making phone calls to a wider circle of people than you did when you knew you would see them at a dinner or at a party? No, I still see in each place I live the same people. Even during the pandemic, we would meet because my building in San Francisco wouldn't even let you have gas. We would order pizza and eat in the park. Or on the roof. Yes, I still stayed in touch with my core of a 25 closest people. I was always, I even saw them during the pandemic. I love that you have 25 close people. That's a lot of people. I mean, if you're saying, probably. Are they mostly your age? Some are younger. But mostly, or between, you know, it's a good question. I think they're varied in age, but certainly, I mean like I went to see my oldest high school friend that I haven't seen in a long time the other day. In a retirement community, it was so weird to go in there, you know? So I do stay in touch. And if anything bad happens to you, I call it. If you get a bad review, I call it. If you go to jail, I definitely am your first visitor. I'm never don't come busy if you're in jail. My mother used to say it was my junior league work. What was the retirement community like? What was the retirement community like for? I get ads for retirement communities that infuriate me and I put them right in the shredder. How dare you? Including the one my parents was in. Don't think you're getting me. There is a certain ease. Well, I did. I don't know what I will eventually. I mean, I did have someone I taught in prison and he served 27 years for a double murder and I got him out. He's doing great. And he said, the only way I can ever repay you. If you're old, I'll carry up the steps. I remember that. I might take care of all that. Come on over. I'm on the first floor. Have you felt that? I noticed you mentioned earlier your back. How are you feeling about the way your body is changing with age? You know, my bad, my dad had a bad back. I got one. Otherwise, you know, I'm going to ten cities this week. I did 5 last week. I have a 20 city Christmas tour. It's not what it's holding me back. But sometimes, I'm 76. I'm not middle aged. I'm not a 152. And people always say, why don't you retire?

"But I made multiple maniacs in their house. Desperate living the bedroom, the baseball comes through. That's my mother's bedroom. They were supportive. I mean, they hated the movies, but they were amazed that I could do it. I was that driven to do it. So they respected that. I was lucky that they didn't try to stop that. They never said don't make these movies. Even when I was getting arrested and it was no one said they were good. There were humiliating reviews in the newspaper. I've wondered about that like you, your discipline as a maker alongside your delight and rebelliousness. Do you are there like two parts of you that feel intention? No, they're not intentional at all, but that's my dad. My dad taught me responsibility and business and how to be organized and how to have plan and maybe how to have a backup plan. We just had very, very different product. He started a company that went on to be very successful in my niece runs at my brother who died ran at first and then his daughter runs at very successful and it's fire protection equipment. And so he sold that and I sold shock. It was the same thing. And he liked talking to me about business, how the movie business worked and he was amazed that I figured all that out and everything. But that's how we could relate. Fire protection equipment. What does that mean? It means we're in the beginning. It was fire extinguishers. You know, you have to have one in your house. But that now it's big, you know, systems and warehouse and everything, you know. And but when we were young, every time we'd hear a siren, we'd jump in the car and go to people's houses where on fire to watch, and it would be exciting. It was like, I felt close to my dad, watching neighbor's house burned down. Because he would go to see it, you know. I don't think he was a power maniac. I hope not. But we did go to watch, we'd be eating dinner and hearing the volunteer fire siren go off. So we jump in the car and we were fire engine chasers. The whole family would do it. I didn't know that. That's amazing. Yeah. This is fun. And did you ever see suffering that was never pulled up or family was running out of a house on fire? No, I did not see that. Thank God. Yeah. Oh, you get the whole family would jump in the car. Yeah. And did he help you when you were figuring out the business side when you were just starting? Well, you let me the money. And I paid him back with interest and he was so shocked and I think it was the only person that ever of the investors that I race hoped I would not pay him back so the career would end and I wouldn't ask him again. So he was disappointed when I paid him back. But when I would rent halls in the beginning, I would rent the place and my brother would come get all the money. And then he'd take it home to my dad and they would help me get the money out of it. There's always hippies didn't steal it. The marshes in your fan base. Yeah, yeah. No, we didn't have any marshes. We didn't. And do you feel like, how do you think acquiring wealth has changed the way you think about or like, feel aligned with outlaws and rebels in America right now? Well, I say on my show when I was young I wanted to burn the Bank of America down. Now my money's in there. But I'd still like to burn it down because they run the bank really badly, I think. I gave all my a huge art collection that I've collected for years to the Baltimore museum. And so has it changed me. Nothing happened overnight. It happened very gradually, the career went up and down for a few years when I made Hollywood movies. Yeah, I got real money and I brought a pal some apartment and everything. And I went through what you have to do to get that money too. And I don't have any complaints about it. What do you mean went through? Well, if they give you that amount of money to make a movie, they're gonna give you notes. You're gonna go through a test screening. They want it to make money. I always wanted to make money. I always thought the films were commercial and weirdly enough, they all were the difference was it took a long time to make the money back, but they're still all in print. They're still all playing. They still come out. And even the early ones had an audience. I didn't have critical support, but the audience has always came, even if it was in like I would rent a church hall and have the premiere of multiple maniacs or pink flamingos. Friday Saturday and Sunday at 8, ten and midnight. They all sold out. The audience was great, you know. So it wasn't like I felt ignored. Ever. But I did learn how to do it and I went through with New Line Cinema, a very, very beginning. I got variety when I was 14. So I learned the business. I learned how to fight in it. I learned about what expenses are, how it's hard to get the money, even if you make money. I'm sure you always said to me, how do you make friends with the accountant? Which I always did. I still send Christmas cards to accountants from 30 years ago that I made friends with. Oh. And they were always furious because it counts would say. Say, whose dinner was this for? And can. And they say that wasn't your opinion. They would tell me. I love one way that you have described your work life balance is that you've said at least half of my dinners I don't expense. No, I don't. No, that just means you have a private life. It's all your expenses are not. Yeah. And I learned a long time ago from my account, my clothes you can never deduct. Even though wearing crazy clothes gets me fashion work. But you can not deduct clothes if you can wear them on the street. They can't have pockets. And I like to say, I'd like to see an IRS where this suit. Good luck. But still, I've learned business stuff, you know, how it works and everything. And I am honest, if I spend 20 cents, I have a receipt. And I give it to my accountant. Yeah, what's your system? Every day my accountant comes twice a week and she gives envelope and it's all the receipts that week. The bills and everything. So every receipt goes in. If it's a personal receipt goes in one envelope, if it's a business on another one, if it's one that gets reimbursed a third. So and I only got audited once and they said I had better records in General Motors. I wasn't there because the tax account I had at the time said don't come. They didn't want me there. So you must have three envelopes right now in the bag that you're going to have right on my desk. Yeah. That's so and all the boarding passes to the print, so I'll make sure I get all those frequent flyer miles. Coming up, John Waters, talks about tending to his circle of friends, who range from heiresses and business moguls to incarcerated people and petty thieves. Including the one John told me about who inspired parts of his novel. I did have a friend that used to steal the story this was talking about, 'cause really? Yeah. Wait, tell me how you found this out. She told me. And my other friend said, I was with her and then we're about to take off and they made an announcement. Someone has taken the flight attendants back and we're not taking off till we get it back. She looked over at her front. She knew her friend did it. And then she didn't tell him. They did take off.

"Bubbler scientific bubbler. I like that. And maybe they'll change the name of it. Oh, good. From bubble chamber. Oh, no, I've never heard of this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So for this, glacier won the 1960 Nobel Prize in physics. So this was like a big deal. So it's similar to a cloud chamber, a bubble chamber is normally made by filling a large cylinder with a liquid heated to just below its boiling point. As particles enter the chamber, there's a piston that suddenly decreases its pressure and the liquid enters up into a superheated metastable phase. And charged particles create an ionization track around which the liquid vaporizes and forms microscopic bubbles. So bubble density around a track is proportional to a particle's energy loss. So there was a really big, heavy liquid bubble chamber detector called gargamel in operation at CERN, which is the kansai European polarization nuclei. Between 1970 and 1979. And so this gargamel was designed to neutrinos and antineutrinos, which were produced with a beam from the proton croton particle accelerator between 1970 1976. I was like this is all very scientific. I was going to say you seem very comfortable speaking those words. So much more comfortable than some of the things earlier. So yeah, a bubble chamber. Or maybe not so much in use anymore, but gargamel was a really big one. It was a big guy. All right, cool. All right, question 8. It's pretty much multiple choice. A mixture of sugar spice and everything nice. The powerpuff girls are three kindergarten age girls with superpowers who live in townsville. What signature colored is bubbles wear? Is it blue, green or pink? Please, that's blue. Yes, bubbles this game. So blossom the leader, she wears pink, buttercup, who's like the hot headed tomboy? Where's green and bubbles, has blond hair in two pigtails. She's very cute. And where's blue? And she is the softest and sweetest of the three. All right, question 9. I love this question. I hope you do it well. That's the first time I'm hearing it because I was definitely deep in a freak out at this point. Shouldn't I? Sometimes professional sporting teams adopt popular songs as their anthems. For example, the St. Louis blues and the NHL, they're known for Laura brannigan's song Gloria. Over in the UK, West Ham United anthem is a 1920s song called I'm forever blowing bubbles, which fans have been singing for decades now, in which specific sports league does West Ham compete? A specific sports league where they sing, I'm forever blowing bubbles. Is this water polo? No. Oh. Is it this swimming? Song doesn't really have to do. Oh, it doesn't wear with it, but what does West Ham United do? What sport? I mean, I would assume they play football. Okay, so what sports league would they maybe play in? Oh, I mean, the UK football league? Cold. It's called, I don't know, it's called the, it's called the English. United football league? The FIFA is a FIFA? The answer is the Premier League is the top tier of English football. Oh, I didn't know. Well, they have various tears like you get relegated, like maybe you're in the Premier League One season and you play badly. And then you get relegated from the Premier League to like a different leak. Sure. You move up and down and down. But West Ham United is part of the Premier League. So when players come into the pitch and at other times of celebration, as the song, I'm forever blowing bubbles as being sung, about 60 bubble machines produce bubbles that rise high into the stadium. So the song was introduced to the club by former manager Charlie painter in the late 1920s. So at the time there was a peers soap commercial that featured a curly haired child from the John Everett malaise painting called bubbles. It was very well known at the time. And so this child apparently resembled a player of the team, Billie J bubbles Murray from a local schoolboy team at park school where the headmaster was Cornelius Beal. And Bill was known locally for his music and rhyme and wrote special words to the tune of I'm forever blowing bubbles whenever any player was having a good game. So West Ham has played at they moved to London Stadium in 2016, but they played it the bull and ground from 1904 till 2016. So I think some other tangentially related other anthems you should know. So the Liverpool football club that's also in the Premier League in the UK, Lauren is you'll never walk alone and they actually have it like engraved on the Gates as you go in as you'll never walk alone. Manchester City also in the Premier League is blue moon for some reason. The Yankees is typically New York, New York, the Boston Red Sox has sweet Caroline for my fellow Jens. We are family by sister sledge is the Pittsburgh pirates and of course renegade by sticks is the Steelers. Yeah. So I learned in a quiz. It's like everybody else. All right, and finally question ten. Reginald bubbles cousins was a recovering heroin addict and criminal informant on which Baltimore set HBO drama created by David Simon. Baltimore set HBO drama. That is, oh, that's. Is that the wire? It is the wire. Yes. Yes, yes. So bubbles was played by Andre royo. So the wire ran from 2002 to 2008, there were like 60 episodes over 5 seasons. Each season introduces a different institution of the city and its relationship to law enforcement. But it's still has the characters and advances the storylines from previous seasons. So the 5 subjects are in chronological order. The illegal drug trade, the port system, the city government and bureaucracy, education and schools and the print news medium. And so some other character names you should know from a show. Jimmy McNulty, who's played by Dominic West, Russell stringer bell. Omar little, who is played by the late Michael K Williams and William bunk Moreland, played by Wendell pierce. I've never watched it. I think I have a friend at work who started watching it. Like she's watched it a couple of times with her husband. I'm like, it seems like a very intense super, super intense, and I feel like there's a.

"Also, by the way, coming from someone who's a collections person, is that when you wrap your items in bubble wrap, you wrap them with the bubble facing out. Ah yes.

Very slept in a crib in Jackson's bedroom, used Jackson's toilet and 8 Jackson's candy in the Neverland movie theater. By 2003, though, bubbles had matured into a large and aggressive adult chimpanzee on suitable as a pet like many captive chimpanzees and was actually sent to a California animal trainer. And bubbles was later moved to the center for great apes, which is a sanctuary in Florida, where he has lived since 2005. The media reported, so the media loved to talk about bubbles. This was another Michael Jackson such a wacko Jack weird crazy weirdo. They also reported that bubbles would be the ring bearer at Elizabeth Taylor's October 1991 Neverland ranch wedding to her 7th and last husband construction worker Larry fortensky. That report was untrue, but according to The New York Times, was, quote, an idea that some newspapers found two delightful, not to report. Yeah, understandable. Yes. Question three. What is the title of the Nickelodeon children's show highlighting the underwater adventures of a group of mer people preschoolers named Molly gill goby Dima una and nanny? That's bubble guppies.

And there we go.

Is that Thailand? It is not Thailand. The shit the answer is Taiwan. Ah, damn. Yes, yes, yes. So Taiwan, the country's main island was formerly known as formosa, which was named by Portuguese explorers. In Taiwan's political status has been contentious over the years. It is officially called the Republic of China or ROC. And it participates in most international forms and organizations as Chinese Taipei. So you might see it listed as that too. But they tend to call themselves Taiwan. Yeah. Question 5, according to the Oxford English dictionary, the name for what British cooked potatoes and cabbage dish alludes to the sound the ingredients make while being fried. That's bubble and squeak. Bubble and squeak. And I didn't have any any more flavor text to add to that. What else can you say? Potatoes. And cabbage. Other than it's probably real good with a pint. Oh, I bow. All right, question 6. Bubble bobble is a 1986 platform arcade game from tato, about two dragons named bubba and bob, who set out together to save their girlfriends from the cave of monsters. Even if you don't know that game, you should recognize the manufacturer's name as the publisher of the highest grossing video game of all time. What shoot them up arcade game released by taito in 1978, ushered in the golden era of video games. Oh man, I am not great at this. At first I was like, oh, that's Call of Duty. But that's not true at all. Call of Duty is decidedly didn't come out in 1978. Oh no, just shoot them up game in 1978. It's not metroid, is it? Is that a game? That is a game. Yeah, your name is. That's good. Don't patronize me. You definitely have this. You've played this game before. Have not played many video games. In fact, I can't name a single video game I've actually played. Have I played any video games? I don't think so. Definitely not when I was a kid. You were just shrugging the shoulders. He doesn't know if you've ever played video game. So what if I told you that you are shooting at alien spaceships? Alien, oh, there's a lot of video game nerds listening to this episode right now screaming at their car radio or down there Apple iPad iPods or. I don't know guys. I don't know Juul. I'm invaders. Space invaders. Space invaders are. And it was inducted into the world video game Hall of Fame in 2016. And you might have heard, you know, maybe you tuned into when Lauren and I did a live trivia event at the strong museum earlier in 2021 about the world video game Hall of Fame. So you might have heard us chat about it there too. But yeah, space invaders is the highest grossing video game of all time. Okay. There we go. Now I know that. Now, you know, question 7 a question for doctor Polly. What is the two word term for a vessel filled with a superheated transparent liquid used to detect electrically charged particles? It was invented in 1952 by Donald a glazer who experimented on his early prototypes using beer. Is this something that you'd see in like a 1950s B movie where like the scientists like in his lab?

"In town nice white kids who like to lead the way and once a month we have our game. Julia, you're not gonna fucking believe this. The pen that Steve gave me ran out of ink, so I had to go into the dress. I had to write my call on my answers at the same pencil again. I can't believe this. It's because the man I married doesn't put a cap on a pen. He has never put a camp out of pen, his whole life. And this is this is the consequence. Is this got to be pencil? This is how I die. You're going to lose your voice. You're going to have to write a note to like slip it under a door. It tells me to save you. Can't read it. Because it's a 50 year old fabric pencil. In light blue. Do you want me to just end the episode now? Send it by everybody. Hope you guys. Happy new year. No, I think I got some of them. I think I got some of them. Okay. I am gonna throw this at Steve after this episode. Why don't you just like, oh, would it be? Would you be sad if he broke it in half? The pen? No, the pencil. The pen. Break the pen in half. I will break the pen in hand. And then put it under his pillow. I'll break it. Yes. I'll break it over by knee and just shake it in the air. Good clean fun, everybody. Gotta clean it all up. All right, really bad. Question one. Two inventors were attempting to develop a three dimensional plastic wallpaper in 1957 when they instead ended up creating a highly addictive packing material that was later trademarked by the sealed air corporation. What is the trade name of this product? Is it bubble wrap? It is bubble wrap. Okay, good. Yeah, start off easy. So the bubbles of bubble wrap, they come in various sizes, Lauren. They can be as small as 6 millimeters. That's about .24 inches in diameter, and they can be as large as 26 millimeters. That's like one inch or more. To provide added levels of shock absorption during transit. The most common bubble size is one centimeter, just so you know..

"The gift comes with two conditions though, the art can not be sold and two bathrooms in the museum must be named after him. That's pretty good. Yep. If I got that, if I got those conditions, I'd say, where do we sign? Thank you, sir. Exactly. In 2012, John Waters hitchhiked from Baltimore to San Francisco, chronicling his adventures in a book titled carsick. Picked up on the road by myriad characters, including a film financing drug dealer, a demolition Derby driver, an 81 year old farmer in indie rock band, water is carried a cardboard sign with the message. I'm not psycho. And I think at one point on the trip, Patty Hearst joined him and was just oh my God. You know, so somebody was picking up hitchhikers and they're like, said John Waters and is that patty hurt? So that's a weird so wacky noodle. Oh my gosh. So on another good note, John Waters loves Christmas. That's great. In Baltimore, he owns like a 1927 townhouse that he purchased because, quote, it looks like Dracula's house. At Christmas time he decorates it with Aretha thorns and party guests have reported that he has an electric chair in the movie, female trouble that's prominently displayed in an entry hall and they string it up with festive lights. He loves the yuletide season and friends and fans send him handmade ornaments and lots of drawings of himself and other artworks inspired by him. His collection of ornaments includes a birdhouse modeled after the unabomber's boarded up cabin, a bedazzled handler, and a bust of John Travolta as a term blad. His musings on the holidays high and low points eventually inspired an annual traveling stand up comedy show called a John Waters Christmas. This year, he canceled it in 2020, but in 2021, the subtitle was it's a yuletide massacre. So here's the show description from when it appeared at the Berkeley college of music earlier this month. Quote, bad little boys and girls and everyone in between and beyond will be thrilled to take a sleigh ride of sleeves down the slopes of good taste and over the ski jump of religious beliefs to a snowdrift of candy cane anarchy. There will be no silent nights this year. The sanitization of Christmas cookies and the wiping down a presence must stop. It's time to celebrate, touch your face, breathe on your family, sit in the middle seats on airplanes, dance naked in retirement homes. It's fun. It's a John Waters Christmas and fa la la you're not dead yet. That's a format of the show is 70 minutes of John water's monologue followed by like 20 minutes of audience questions, which as I'm sure you can imagine. Oh yeah. A riot. A real true thing. So he is this man has a, he's probably a genius. I mean, let's face it, but he's operating at a level, but a lot of us weren't prepared to know. Learn about. And I gave him a lot of credit for just, you know, he's got one thing. He's sticking with it. He's been sticking with us since day one. He's like, this works for me. This is the stuff I like. And you know what else? I get from him. A true sense of that this is not an affect. This is the way he really is. This is the stuff he's legitimately interested in. Yeah, I mean, true to thyself, God bless you. Yeah. Again, there's a lot in the filmography that I chose to not talk about. And it's fun. But I just trying to hit the points that would be maybe to be related or something. Well, you know what? You're doing the lower. So finally to end this section. In 2015, John Waters delivered the convention address at the prestigious Rhode Island school of design and he called himself the people's pervert. And he shared his life lessons. And he told the graduates quote, contemporary art's job is to reck what came before. Is there a better job description than that to aspire to? So that's pretty good. There you have it. John Waters and his abject art. You did such a good job. I'm so proud of you. This was so exciting. It was really outside of my comfort zone and it's okay. You didn't have a lot of things. And that's okay. You know what? It's our podcast. Yeah. We never claim to be comprehensive. We just claim to be entertaining. That's it. I try. We drove that you were entertained by Julia's palpable, uncomfortable, comfortableness through this entire episode. So Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas, we had a great Christmas. Yep. Coming out of the box for that one. On a much different note, our quiz is called good, clean, fun. This is a quiz. On bubbles. Oh my God. I will say here's the thing. Hold on. Without telling me at all. He just Steve just walked upstairs and just left a notepad and a real pen. A real pen. Yeah, at my desk. It was very funny 'cause okay, so Steve and some of our friends will text us as they're listening to the episode in real time. And it's funny because sometimes we will have recorded it a few weeks ago, sometimes sure. We are busy that day that it comes out and we come back to it. And we have like 9 text messages and they're all just like, she was using the wrong pencil. Ah, that was definitely a fabric pencil. Ah, I can't believe she grabbed the other fabric pencil. I was like, I have no idea. I have no frame of reference what this message is about. So behind the curtain, I sit upstairs in our spare bedroom sitting at a Steve's grandmother's sewing table. Sewing desk. And in scrounging around for a pencil I opened a drawer that has not been opened in 30 years and grabbed a blue like fabric marking pencil that is probably 50 years old and tried to write with it. So that was I should have grabbed the word pencil and here's the thing. This is also, we had dinner with my friend Marlene Hammond whitmore shout out to Marlene Hammond her wonderful husband Tom. They were like, oh, we listen to your episode, oh my gosh, that was so funny. She was like, I just love that you kept yelling about bangle hands. And I was like, no, no, it was bagel hands. She goes, no, Lauren is Bangladesh. It was Bengal that makes sense. I was like, no wonder I had such a hard time. I thought Julia was saying bagel. It was bagel hands. Oh my God. Oh, sorry, Marlene. Okay, it was get big old hands. All right. Who, good, I'm not crazy. Anyway, please tell me your quiz. I thought it was funny 'cause bagel hands was so out of the way it would have been a clue. That was funny. That's what stuck in my craw, obviously. Yeah. Anyway, this episode is called good, clean, fun. It is a quiz on bubbles. Question one. Two inventors were attempting to develop a three dimensional plastic wallpaper in 1957 when they instead ended up creating a highly addictive packing material that was later trade ranked by the sealed air corporation. What is the trade name of this product? Question two bubbles the chimpanzee was once kept as a pet by which American.

"And I'm just going to tell you that a female travel this is a film in which divine plays both a delinquent high schooler named Don Davenport in a man named Earl with whom she fucks on a mattress at the dock. I'm sorry you had to read the whole description on two websites for just that. I'm then she gets pregnant and then she's the baby and then the baby grows up to be a bad, a bad girl and then also played by divine. Yeah, yep. All right, all right. All right, great, right, right. Yeah, we're doing great. The third part of the trash trilogy is desperate living from 1977. Neurotic and delusional suburban housewife Peggy gravel and her nurse griselda go on the lamb after griselda smothers Peggy's husband Bosley to death. And across dressing policemen arrest the pair and gives them an ultimatum. Go to jail or be exiled to mortville, a filthy shanty town ruled by the evil queen carlotta and her daughter, princess cuckoo. Peggy and griselda choose to go to mortville in their various social outcasts conspired to overthrow queen carlotta after she banished her daughter cuckoo after she eloped with a garbage collector named Herbert. Peggy gives everyone rabies and the queen is overthrown and they roast her. I hate this. So, okay, so what I'm regular stuff happens to be right? Like, you know, well, boy, this is probably the most challenging episode I think you've had. I would yes. Yeah. Yeah, maybe I really should have probably taken the job. You know, I wrote about Joseph Stalin murdering like 40 pages. I know. How is it that our December episodes are so hard for you? What a year. Yeah. No, it's okay. So what I'm getting from a lot of these storylines is that they seem very campy, B movie fantasy, silliness, like very purposefully purposefully over the top and tasteless. Exactly, yeah. Yeah, so this is all like this all ties into not only like the visuals, but also the storylines and it's supposed to be funny. It's supposed to be disgusting. It's supposed to be strange. It's supposed to be wonder what the hell is this? It's like super regular stuff happens at least. Yes, super regular stuff happens in these movies. It's wider cult classic. That's the thing about cult classics is that, you know, they're so weird that it like tickles something and some people's brains and they're like, I just love it because it's so bad or it's so weird or gros or whatever. Yeah, I guess when I think of cult classic, my mind just immediately goes to Rocky Horror picture show. Yeah. And I can kind of see some of this happening in the same vein, but obviously to a much more extreme degree for sure. Yes. So in 1981, John Waters puts out polyester. So this movie kind of satirizes the melodramatic genre of female pictures. In polyester, early 80s, housewife francine fish paw watches her upper middle class families life crumble in their suburban Baltimore home. Her husband Elmer is a polyester clad laut who owns an adult movie theater. She is terrible children, Lulu, her spoiled promiscuous daughter. And Dexter, her delinquent, glue sniffing son who derives sexual pleasure from stomping on strange women's feet. So there's a lot of John Waters style storyline drama happening. Absolutely. Of course, there's a happy ending at the end. That's nice. Good. That's good. One thing that is cool about polyester, I'll say, so it featured a gimmick called odorama. So viewers could smell what they saw on screen using scratch and sniff cards. So that's cool. Waters came up with this inspired by the work of William castle in the 1960 film scent of mystery, which featured a device called Smell-O-Vision. So for odorama, there were special cards with spots numbered one through ten that were distributed to audience members before the show, like you would nowadays with 3D glasses of the movie theater. So when a number would flash on the screen, viewers were supposed to scratch and sniff the appropriate spot. Okay. But this is a John Waters movie. Yeah, of course. So for this film, smells included. You got this. Roses. Model airplane glue, pizza, gasoline skunk, natural gas, new car smell, dirty shoes, and air freshener. Got through it. You did a great job. We did a good job. So polyester was actually the first waters film to kind of skirt the mainstream. It even got an R rating. His previous films were all unrated or rated X, which is the equivalent of the present day in C 17. And it turns out this film was set in a middle class summer revolver instead of its slums in Bohemia neighborhoods, which were the settings of his earlier films. So who knows if that had something to do with it too? Okay. All right, ready? Is hairspray? Oh yeah. The milder creating a John Waters film had ever received, got a PG. And this one was not a musical. So the 1988 original hairspray was set in 1962 Baltimore, Maryland, and the film revolves around self proclaimed, pleasantly plump, teenager, Tracy turnblad, played by Ricky Lake, as she pursues stardom as a dancer on a local TV show, the corny Collins show. And she also rallies against racial segregation. So Tracy's archnemesis was amber von tussle and in that film she's played by Colleen Fitzpatrick. Collingwood's Patrick later went on to be known as the artist vitamin C of the graduations. Oh my God. Real phone call? Wait, what's called the graduation song, right? Yeah, it was like, yeah, yeah, it was the graduation song or something. Okay, yep. And in that film also, amber's parents were played by Sonny Bono and Debbie Harry. So like he's getting like real big names. Big names coming up in his movies. So of course, divine was in this film, divine played Tracy term lad's mother. And John Waters wrote that his all time favorite review of hairspray was David Edelstein's enrolling stone. He said, quote, this is a family movie that both the bradys and the mansons could adore. So this was divine's final film, released during his lifetime. He died three weeks later after its release. So wow. And of course this was later adapted as a Broadway musical and then remade as a musical film in 2007. Yeah, with oh God, what's his name? Tracy term blade's mom. Oh, yeah. That's her Volta. John Travolta. Yikes. I mean, I know that the character is always supposed to be like a drag queen or a cross dressing person or whatever. But he looked like it was well, they put him in also a fat suit, but like, yeah, like put him in a ton of makeup and was supposed to like, I don't know. I think it's not supposed to be like transformational. Like, you're not supposed to say like, is that a woman? That's not John Travolta, is it? And it's part of the conceit of the show, I don't know. Right. So after hairspray, I'm feeling better now. After her spray, he is cry baby in 1990. That star Johnny Depp as 1950s teen rebel cry baby wade walker and it had a very large ensemble cast that also had a lot of popular people and including patty first. So crybaby centers on a group of delinquents who refer to themselves as drapes and their interaction with the rest of the town and its other subculture as the squares in 1950s Baltimore Maryland. So a drape was the Baltimore colloquial term for greaser. Oh, from the 1950s. That makes sense. So cry baby walker's a drape and Allison's a square. But they create upheaval and turmoil in their little town by breaking the subculture taboos and falling in love..

"It cost $30 to make and it ran for 17 whole minutes. So the plot according to the Internet is as follows. Quote, a black man and a white girl are we D on a rooftop. He courts her by carrying her around in a trash can and chooses a Ku Klux klansman to perform the wedding. The wedding guests are played by people dressed in early pop influence costumes such as American flags and tinfoil. Just probably, you know, from the get go. We're just we're just kind of making it. It's provocative. Provocative. Yes. Yes, yes, yes. So he did some other short films next Roman candles in 1966, eat your makeup in 1968 and the Diane link letter story in 1970. These are occasionally screened as part of various John Waters touring art exhibitions. His first feature length film was called mondo trash show in 1960 that had no dialog actually in his second feature length film was called multiple maniacs in 1970, and that was actually his first talky movie. So with mondo trash O, he and his friends were arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit indecent exposure while filming it because there was a scene with a naked hitchhiker in a convertible, but they were on the Johns Hopkins University campus and they didn't have permission to film a naked man there. So yeah, mondo trash are just right from the get go starts with some yes provocative storylines kind of some characters that you wouldn't ever see coming out of Hollywood films. Sure, yeah. Again, right off like John Waters hit the ground running. All right, 1972, pink flamingos. Yep. It is part of what waters has labeled his trash trilogy. So pink flamingos whose tagline is an exercise in poor taste. The film stars what the countercultural drag queen divine as a criminal living under the name of Babs, Johnson, who is proud to be the filthiest person alive. While living in a trailer with her mother Edie, son crackers and traveling companion cotton, divine is confronted by a pair of criminals envious of her reputation who try to outdo her in filth. The characters engage in several grotesque bizarre and explicitly crude situations. Upon the film's rerelease in 1997, it was rated NC 17 by the MPAA for, quote, a wide range of perversions in explicit detail. Along with the obvious profanity nudity, pink flamingos has a number of quote increasingly revolting scenes. Centering on the watching, I'm watching Julia physically and mentally just melt. In reading this, let me get through the sentence on voyeurism exhibitionism, sodomy, masturbation, rape, incest murder, cannibalism, castration, and finally coprophagia. Just. I just don't know why anybody. Yeah, I mean, again, it's this shock value, right? It's created to shock. It's graded to elicit a reaction. It's provocative. It's 100% John Waters like that has been I mean, you can't knock him for being very consistent. On what his whole cut is. Exactly. And in this day and age, it's almost quaint. Like, it's, I mean, I am a bad queer history aficionado in that. I don't think I've seen a single John Waters film and have not really any desire to. But yeah, it's tough. It's tough stuff. There's a lot that happens in all these. But I'm gonna do a little detour. So as we got here, it's divine December. I gotta talk about the infamous drag queen divine. So of course. It's the stage name of Harris Glen milstead. Milstead was born to a conservative middle class family in Baltimore, and he became interested in drag while working as a women's hairdresser. By the 1960s, he'd embraced the Baltimore countercultural scene and he befriended John Waters who gave him the name divine and the tagline of the most beautiful woman in the world almost. So divine has been described by People magazine as the drag queen of the century. And vine has remained a cult figure, particularly within the LGBT community. And has provided the inspiration for fictional characters, art works in songs. Divine had a very signature pointed eyebrow look with a shaved back hairline and very cutting edge clothing choices. As a drag queen, maybe you could describe divine a little more in detail like other particular things that he was known for. Yeah, so divine was a brash loud. Mouthed drag queen. Very large. Very big. Queen. And broad shouldered and very like tall and brassy. And would have these very sharp pointed like over the top up to like mid forehead eyebrows and kind of like an intense look like almost angry look with big pointed lipstick and and again, I didn't know that he shaved his hair back, but the wigs would start farther back to create like more face. So there was just like this huge drag face. Yes. So it was just like a lot of look. I mean, drag queen's already like, it's an exaggeration feature, right? Yeah. But divine was like a lot. So do you think even in the 60s would that have been like a typical drag look? No, I don't think so. Like drag in the 60s and 70s was still very like pageant tea like pretty like trying to I mean, don't get me wrong. There was underground and gender fucking all of that stuff. But a lot of drag queens were looking to look feminine like women and you know have a painted face and like where beautiful women's clothing and tuck and all of that stuff. So yeah, divine was a unique and very distinctive look for a drag queen. Absolutely. So he actually passed away in 1988. He had basically a heart attack. Right after they filmed one of the movies that I'm going to talk about. And then everybody was very sad and very just shot. And John runners knew that he was never going to recast somebody divine. All of his works. So again, various books and documentary films have been devoted to his life, including divine trash from 1998 and I am divine from 2013. And yes, the Disney villain Ursula from The Little Mermaid in 1989 was inspired by divine. And people have gone on to say that divine would have loved it. Divine mode would have loved to play this character and that he would have been honored by this. So, yeah. That's where the divine part of December comes in. Because after pink flamingos, we get female trouble in 1974, also part of the trash trilogy, and I read the whole summary for this film. Wow. On both IMDb and Wikipedia. And I'm just going to tell you that a female travel this is a film in which divine plays both a delinquent high schooler named Don Davenport in a man named Earl.

"And children. If i met a young person and they had never seen a pasolini film. I would say start with the gospel according to saint matthew a beautiful religious movie that at the same time made people nervous because christ and mary just looked like regular people. Every day i would tell you to watch tare raimo a movie about a whole family. That goes crazy because somebody so handsome. They comes to their house and have sex with him. No matter what their sexuality is. I would tell them to watch pig pen. That's another great movie. He made but he made different movies about different classes in italy. But at the same time he surprised you every time and i would tell any young person. That's what you want is to be surprised when you're young. Isn't it so watches movies and see his whole career and see how he dealt with commercial cinema too because his films were hit some of them they played in america. You know these are subtitles movies. That were playing in big art cinemas in america. So you could see what. Maybe he went a little crazy at the end and to keep yourself really you've got to do.

The Paul Finebaum Show
David Kellum, Voice of Ole Miss, Talks About How He Got His Start at Ole Miss
"David kelham. Who is the voice of the ole miss rebels He's been part of that program for going on for decades And you know what a time to be at ole miss with the football program under lane kiffin the basketball program doing quite well and then the baseball program only being number one in the country we had One of the stars of the team on the other day and david. I know. Fridays are pretty busy times with baseball and everything. But we appreciate you making time for us and how are you sure doing great polyp sitting at the box waiting for us to play belmont here at six thirty our time. So it's great. You called me the perfect time but good to be only. I have seen this before in her different friends. But i would be intrigued the because sometimes it takes a long time to get a a prime job like you have now especially with the the just the absolute zeal for almost baseball but You apparently got started pretty early. Yep i started basically in highschool to be honest with that kind of tricked tricks my way into this job I was a senior in high school. My mother was professor suter. Don't miss and i used to hang out of her office a lot and radio. Tv was under theater and campus radio station which was w cbi at that. Time was carrying ole miss baseball and it was on cable. Only the students were gone. The professors were known. This guy comes blowing out of the station ex. My mother's office and he's gotta find somebody these games. Everybody's gone and so. I told him i said i can do him. He said who are you. Don't even go was and so. He thought hosted freshman. Ole miss which i was not as a senior high school. But i did the seventy seven. Sec tournament for ole miss on the campus radio station as a eighteen year old. So that's how. That's how. I got my and they hired by the local radio station. The final years that this jack you know how that goes and started doing baseball and seventy eight. It's baseball and women's basketball through. Eighty eight became the lead announcer in football men's basketball and continue to baseball in eighty nine. I mean that's i'm always Always admire people not only for for excelling but being able to to stay in a job. That long. And i don't mean that i mean and i say that because there's all misses the perfect exception it is the perfect example there. There are a lot of changes that have happened then. You never really know what's going to happen. I've seen it firsthand with When when i first started in birmingham legendary voice of the crimson tide was out with a new a new administration. How how how do you hang on. And i don't mean hang on. How do you stay in the job like that. For for as long as you do considering the politics of of intercollegiate athletics. Just don't criticize the coaches and you told a long time ago point. Because they rarely they rarely pop up these jobs to. There's more opportunity now. I teach a class at old miss. We're not teaching this spring because of the pandemic but i teach sportscasting class. And when i got my shot to be in radio radio was basically it. I mean you didn't have the live streaming opportunities the podcast opportunities and all the things that are going on today And so it has been difficult. But it's funny. you should mention. I've had kids through the years that like meet the rebels day would come up to me and say i'm gonna have your job someday and i soon i've got a few more years. You know thinking back my mind but this past year A kid said that's means that ten years old and hit him. Like you might be the one because i put in a tiny years this point when i got started John waters at tennessee. Larry months was the georgia jim. Five was it auburn jet crystal. Was it stay. You had k would lead for Kentucky rely at alabama. Mickey floor. Jim halt on lsu had just started a little bit before me. And then of course. Later we get all eels outta arkansas about voltage for south carolina and more recently dave south from texas mike kelly from missouri. But that list of names Just incredible announcers across this leaks. And when i first got in the youngest announcing the sec felt very very fortunate. The following year Our buddy west. Durham came in Demand or bill before we went to go to georgia tech. He became the second youngest announcer. We're sitting at a football media days in birmingham which of course you know all about vendor several of them and we're not a little broadcast meeting we're looking around the room and some of those names that just mentioned for sitting there and westland over to me now. He's got a legendary dad. He grew up with and woody but he said you intimidated. I said apps so We were surrounded by that early in our careers which is really really cool. And unique to get to know those men and lean on those that we were kinda the young bucks at the time and that we've kind of become not necessarily legends but longevity We're we're the ones that have been around a while.
