Chapter 2: What are the Oscar nominations and their significance?
Is that how it works?
Don't tell me. I hope all of them win. Yes. Speaking of very prestigious boards making very consequential decisions, Davos was last week and Donald Trump announced the Board of Peace, which is a new...
MLM.
That's one way to look at it. Yes.
It sounds like an MLM. What is his intention with the Board of Peace?
Did he say what his. So initially it's to oversee the Gaza ceasefire. But now ambitions have ballooned. The unlikely roster of countries so far includes Belarus, Hungary, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, UAE, Argentina and Paraguay.
Okay, a little dictator heavy.
A little bit, yes. So yeah, that's what it is so far. The way you can join is, the first, you can get on for three years and that's free. Or you can get a lifetime membership for $1 billion, which feels like... You got to have an ad tier in there somewhere.
It's just one or the other.

Chapter 3: How does Trump's Board of Peace operate and what are its implications?
Yeah, it was a.
We had a new president.
It was very chaotic. It was the election year. It was the election year. It was the election year. Yeah.
2016 was a horrible, horrible year. It was the white and gold dress of years.
But in hindsight, was it so bad? We were 10 years younger. Right?
Do you think 10 years from now we'll do a 2026 trend? Will people be wanting to be reminiscing about 2026? How sad is that to think about?
I hope not. Because it means if we if we're doing that, that means it's worse. Right. If we're projecting, I'd be like, man, 2026. Great. Yeah. Vibes immaculate. And they're not. And so I don't know. Hopefully not. But maybe. Oh, God.
But it's also, it's another, I mean, if we're going to be conspiracy minded about it, it's a great way for social media to be like, hey, can I get a bunch of pictures of your face 10 years ago just to figure out how things age and move?
Collect that data. They're really good at collecting it. And we are suckers. We are so thirsty for the likes. We all jump on board.

Chapter 4: What is the controversy surrounding the Melania documentary?
My big takeaway from this is it doesn't matter how cool you are or how rich you are. You could be David Beckham and Posh Spice. Your kids will be humiliated by you. Humiliated. You're like, oh, my God, Mom, stop dancing like that at the wedding with all my friends here. You're like... I'm a billionaire, pop star, soccer player.
I'm a soccer star.
I'm Posh Spice. Embarrassing, mom.
Cut it out. So it's very relatable, that thing.
I feel so much better about my kid being humiliated by me all the time. You know, if Posh and David are embarrassing, then I guess the rest of us have no hope. What's the worst thing that you've done to your kids to embarrass them?
What is the worst thing I've done to embarrass my kids? I mean.
Or are they not old enough to be embarrassed by you?
They're getting there now. Okay. My son is seven. And there are a couple times where I have done six, seven. And he's like looked me in my eyes and just gone, stop. Stop. And I'm like, ooh, that's tough. Or my daughter will just go tell me that something's not funny and it just kills me in my heart. Oh, that's like a dagger. It's so bad. She says, that's not funny, Dad.
I'm like, I know, but you didn't have to say it like that.

Chapter 5: Why are people reminiscing about 2016 and what does it signify?
Yeah, I will see it on the news.
Did she say, I did not? What is it, an Oscar movie? I did not.
I'm glad she's as over it as the rest of us. She's like, I'll catch it on the news. Rated PG. PG.
No, thank you. Everyone wants to know what's in the Epstein files. Is she going to drop what's in the Epstein files?
Not if it's PG.
Not if it's PG.
SpongeBob would. SpongeBob would definitely drop it. One of the things that I find so weird watching the trailer is the MGM lion. Yes. Isn't it so strange seeing that? Because anytime I see that, I'm culturally trained to expect a James Bond trailer. Totally. So it's weird seeing Melania be like, here we go again, Mr. Bond. And I'm like, yeah, it feels... I expect something else.
And then she's always talking to the troops about AI. It's like the robots are coming and we must choose if they are friend or foe. And I'm like, but are you going to kill James Bond in this movie? The MGM lion makes me expect that he will be there. You have to have the... It's crossing wires in my brain when I watch it.
If only it was just a Bond movie. If we all just woke up from a dream and it was all just a Bond movie, wouldn't that be wonderful?

Chapter 6: What are the latest developments in the Ryanair and Elon Musk beef?
We're all doing, that's what I said. It's like, here's the thing. If you're getting out of bed, And showering one day a week. You're getting out of bed one day a week. You go, girl. Sure. Times are tough.
Yes.
Right?
Yeah.
So more power to her.
That's good. What's your weekly allotment of shower time?
I'm going to be honest. I do shower daily.
Really?
I do shower daily.
