Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Shane Gillis Situation Is Crazy
Q: Is it not true that girls go to Venus to get more?
The group turns the question into a joking exchange before returning to the idea that gender issues and political arguments are being amplified in public discourse.
The Shane Gillis Situation Is Crazy
Q: What do you think is worse for our culture and society right now? All the Polymarket, Kalshi, or OnlyFans?
Dalton says gambling is more corrosive, arguing that while it can pay off, it more often damages people's lives. The hosts contrast that risk with OnlyFans and discuss gambling's growing presence in sports and media.
V-Tubular V-Tubing (feat. Suze Cavalcanti)
Q: What is VTubing and how does it work?
VTubing uses anime-style avatars that are animated in real time, often with Live2D, moving with the streamer's body and webcam input to create a fully formed persona without revealing their face.
Why So Sirus? (feat. Dave Sirus)
Q: Do you think Michael Richards should get a comeback?
It's complicated, as there are so many others who have done worse things and haven't been canceled as severely, but he had a significant public meltdown that warrants discussion.
Why So Sirus? (feat. Dave Sirus)
Q: What was it like getting fired from SNL?
It was a strange experience as I had already started working for Triumph before I was officially fired, and I really enjoyed that work much more.
