Donald Trump MOCKS Women's Olympic Hockey Team - H3 After Dark #16

Host Kate criticizes Donald Trump's dismissive joke about the women's Olympic hockey team ('we got to invite the girls, too'), highlighting the stark contrast in performance. The US women's team has medaled in 100% of all Winter Olympics tournaments since women's hockey began in 1998, securing three gold medals. In comparison, the men's team, participating since 1920, has medaled in less than half (44%) of tournaments and achieved only two gold medals in 46 years until their recent win, matching the women's total in a fraction of the time. The mother of two current male hockey stars, Ellen Weinberg Hughes, is a US hockey legend and coach, adding a layer of irony to the disrespect.

Kate cites specific statistics: men's team medaled in 44% of 27 Olympics, no gold in 46 years until recently (last was 1980 Miracle on Ice). Women's team medaled in 100% of tournaments since 1998, with three gold medals (last in 2018). Women accounted for 67% of US gold medals and 61% of total medals this year. Trump's quote: 'Oh, well, we got to invite the girls, too.'

The hosts explore 'Chad rankings' websites and the broader 'looksmaxing' subculture, which involves men obsessively analyzing and attempting to 'improve' their facial and body aesthetics through extreme methods. This online community has developed its own lexicon (e.g., 'sub three' for unattractive, 'jester gooning' for using humor to compensate for looks, 'bone smashing' for hitting facial bones to alter structure). The hosts frame this as a serious manifestation of male body dysmorphia and eating disorders, driven by societal pressures and the hyper-visual nature of social media, impacting impressionable young boys.

Discussion of 'chadrankings.com' and its algorithmic system, specific terms like 'sub three,' 'jester gooning,' 'bone smashing,' 'halo effect,' and 'maxilla' (upper jawbone growth). Reference to scientific papers linking looksmaxing to self-harm and muscle dysmorphia. Anecdote about a teacher observing kids influenced by Andrew Tate's 'Bugatti' rhetoric.

Reality TV star Spencer Pratt is running for Mayor of Los Angeles. His platform emphasizes 'crisis leadership' and 'fiscal integrity,' but notably focuses more on the welfare of animals in Skid Row than the homeless population itself, which the hosts interpret as a Republican-coded stance. Pratt is also known for his deep immersion in crystal healing, which the hosts find amusingly obsessive. His sister, Stephanie Pratt, publicly opposes his candidacy, alleging he introduced her to hard drugs at 15, had a hidden drug addiction, and physically assaulted her, suggesting his run is a bid for continued fame.

Spencer Pratt's website claims: 'I'm not a politician. I'm a husband and father who watched my home burn because the system failed us.' His focus on 'animals' in Skid Row. Video clip of Spencer discussing his crystals (Kunzite, Moldavite) and their perceived effects. Stephanie Pratt's Twitter allegations: 'got me hooked on hardcore drugs at 15,' 'beat me up when I was 18 and put me in the hospital,' 'unqualified and inexperienced,' 'a vote for him is a vote for stupidity.'

The hosts and audience engage in a fast-food tier list debate, revealing strong opinions and identifying key trends. Jollibee and Chick-fil-A are consistently ranked S-tier for their quality and unique offerings (Jollibee's dark meat chicken and gravy, Chick-fil-A's sauce and breakfast), despite Chick-fil-A's controversial stance. In-N-Out is praised for its fresh ingredients and affordability, while chains like McDonald's and Burger King are criticized for declining quality and rising prices. Subway is universally condemned for its smell and poor food quality, despite its cookies.

S-tier rankings for Chick-fil-A (homophobic but good), Jollibee (dark meat, gravy, pineapple quencher), In-N-Out (fresh, affordable, customizable fries). McDonald's and Burger King criticized for high prices and declining quality (e.g., McDonald's McFlurry no longer mixed, ice cream machine issues). Subway ranked F-tier for smell and bread quality, despite good cookies. Mention of specific items like Carl's Jr.'s Western Bacon Cheeseburger and Culver's cheese curds and custard.
