Speaker 1 This is an iHeart podcast.
Speaker 2 You're listening to Comedy Central.
Speaker 4 Welcome back to the show.
Speaker 3 February 14th has long been a special day for people who aren't drowning in a sea of loneliness.
Speaker 3 But have we forgotten its true meaning? Nate Cordry investigates.
Speaker 5
February 14th, the day when we pause to remember the martyrdom of Saint Valentine. As everyone knows, he married couples in defiance of the Emperor Claudius II.
For that, he was brutally beheaded.
Speaker 5
But what was once a sacred holiday has been turned into a secular orgy. That's right.
There's a war on St. Valentine's Day.
Speaker 6 We have chocolate thongs for women.
Speaker 7 This is for the guys.
Speaker 8 And those are very beautiful Valentine's Day sweaters.
Speaker 3 A little lingerig.
Speaker 5
It's a far cry from the St. Valentine TV specials we remember from our youth.
This represents the still-beating heart ripped from St. Valentine's chest.
Speaker 10 Let us sup on his chocolatey love for the Lord.
Speaker 5 And how are profit-hungry retailers cashing in?
Speaker 11 I went undercover for some reason to find out.
Speaker 5 In just 18 short centuries, we've gone from honoring the bloody decapitation of a religious martyr to dogs in boxer shorts.
Speaker 5 And innocent balloons turned into wanton displays of sexual perversion.
Speaker 5
Do you have a St. Valentine's Day section? St.
Valentine's? Well, we have Valentine's Day cards. No, no, St.
Valentine's Day cards. Not specifically for St.
Valentine's, no.
Speaker 5 Yet another example of the war on St. Valentine's Day.
Speaker 5 Bastions of the Ivory Tower media elite like Harlequin Publishing would have you believe that it's all harmless fun.
Speaker 5 I've been out to the shops to see how people want us to celebrate Valentine's Day.
Speaker 5 How to explain these?
Speaker 1 I don't think I have to explain them. It keeps your juices flowing.
Speaker 5
All you people think about is sex. What about St.
Valentine, huh? What about him?
Speaker 13 I'm not an expert on that.
Speaker 1 I am a romance expert.
Speaker 5 Isn't romance expert just a fancy way of saying slut?
Speaker 5 No.
Speaker 5
Haven't seen enough? You won't believe what's going on in our schools. Heathen craft projects, pagan decorations.
Someone had to put the saint back in St. Valentine's Day.
Day.
Speaker 5 Now I'm gonna starve you.
Speaker 8 What?
Speaker 11 Wait, what do you mean? I'm gonna strike down the wrath on you, buddy. I'm gonna kick your butt with my sword.
Speaker 13 No, no, please don't.
Speaker 11 I'm just trying to follow God's love. You went against me, and I'm gonna cut your head off with this sword.
Speaker 4 Right now,
Speaker 5
it was a lesson they'd never forget. And the school encouraged me to spread my message elsewhere.
So remember, keeping Valentine's Day saintly begins with you.
Speaker 5
First, instead of giving flowers, sit quietly and reflect on the sacrifice of Saint Valentine. Second, don't take your loved one to a fancy dinner.
Fast and reflect on Saint Valentine's martyrdom.
Speaker 5 Third, cards are fine as long as you use them to paper-cut your neck, Saint Valentine style.
Speaker 5 If we follow these simple steps, maybe one day the great Saint Valentine will be honored with the same reverence and respect respect of his brother, St.
Speaker 2 Patrick.
Speaker 3
On a lighter note, today is Valentine's Day. And for more on love, that most mysterious of human emotions, we turn to our resident expert, John Hodgman.
John, thank you so much for joining me.
Speaker 3 Let me put this to you, if I can.
Speaker 3 What is love?
Speaker 3
Well, that's really the wrong question, John. If you've ever been in love, you know it has a different meaning every day.
Some have argued it's always special.
Speaker 3 Others, by contrast, contend it's gripping stuff.
Speaker 3 A sizable minority even claims it's a quasi-mental illness prompting the bizarre sexualization of genital-free infants in a daily cartoon stream.
Speaker 3 No, John, the question isn't what is love, but why is love?
Speaker 3
What does that mean? Well, sexual attraction serves a clear evolutionary purpose. It's a primal urge that helps propagate the species.
You can feel it in this very room.
Speaker 3 For instance, as I speak, my air of danger, coupled with my otherworldly machismo, is prompting the release of hormones in both the live and television audiences.
Speaker 3 But that's not love. It's lust.
Speaker 3 I get that a lot.
Speaker 3 All right, so.
Speaker 3 Why is love? Well, that's really the wrong question, John.
Speaker 3 You're the one who said that that was love.
Speaker 3 The problem is there are so many different kinds of love. The ancient Greeks had almost as many different words for love as they did for pederasty.
Speaker 3 There was eros, passionate love, philia, familial love, agrape, sacrificial love, and meze, the love of appetizers.
Speaker 3 Like stuffed grape leaves.
Speaker 3 Stuffed grape leaves, I have to admit, are delicious. Well, if you love them so much, why don't you marry them?
Speaker 3
Why would I marry a... No, of course you wouldn't marry a grape leaf, that's my point.
You love grape leaves, but you're not in love with them.
Speaker 3 So you're saying love is, what, a social construct or an idea without any physical basis? Well, yes, that's been my entire premise, thank you.
Speaker 3 And it would have been successful, too, if it weren't for one thing.
Speaker 3 The floor is yours.
Speaker 3 The prairie vole.
Speaker 3 The prairie vole, I don't think that I... John, the prairie vole is an unusual species of rodent.
Speaker 3 Come mating season, they find a partner with whom to breed, but afterward they remain with that partner and continue to copulate exclusively with them.
Speaker 3 This, as you've probably already guessed, is where we get the term to f ⁇ like a prairie vole.
Speaker 3 I have never heard that phrase.
Speaker 3 It means to have slow, tender sex with a loving, monogamous partner while burrowed underneath the ground.
Speaker 3 I thought you were from New Jersey. I thought you were not.
Speaker 3 Studies show that prairie voles experience the same surge in oxytocin that happily married humans do, meaning love is an empirically observable chemical reaction. Meaning.
Speaker 3 Ipso facto, love is real.
Speaker 3 Oh, maybe, but really it means that love can be sold in a pill pill or time-release capsule form now.
Speaker 3
Now, that seems incredibly dystopic. I agree.
I suppose we're romantics, you and I. We prefer our love the old-fashioned way, in an easy-to-inhale aerosol spray,
Speaker 3 so that on a day like today, we can wistfully turn to our loved ones and coup, darling, let's like prairie bulls.
Speaker 3
Thank you very much. Happy Valentine's Day.
John Hodgman, we'll be right back.
Speaker 3 If a news story falls through the cracks, Lewis Black catches it for a segment we call Back in Black.
Speaker 3 It's February, the most depressing month of the year, which means it's time for Valentine's Day, the holiday that reminds you that if you don't have a special someone, you're alone.
Speaker 3 And if you haven't got the money or the energy for the holiday of love feast your eyes on this free computerized pre-made Valentine's cards that you can email to all of your girlfriends and look there's even one for Monica
Speaker 3 speaking of which how about a Monica cigar and you know these Monica specials are authentic because as you can see they're sitting on the Don Juan's
Speaker 3 They're making these little honeys in the Philippines and they're selling 20,000 a month.
Speaker 17 This is good, so I can give it to all my friends.
Speaker 3 And just why would you want to do that? Oh, man.
Speaker 17 It's just like when you smoke this, it's just like reminding you that you're in the Oval Office.
Speaker 3 Let me tell you, pal, only if it's too soggy to light.
Speaker 3 And while romance isn't dead, so many great romantic couples are. Romeo and Juliet, Tristan and Isolda, Doty and Diana.
Speaker 3 Speaking of which, George Benson has sold his soul to Dodi's daddy, Mohammed Al-Fayed, and written this romantic little ditty for the late love birds. And is it ever good?
Speaker 15 Dodi,
Speaker 3 Dodie,
Speaker 3 Dodi,
Speaker 3 Dodie,
Speaker 3 Diana.
Speaker 3
Man, I just can't get that haunting melody out of my head. John? Thank you, Louis Black.
That was excellent. Lewis Black.
We'll be right back after this. Take us out with a song.
Speaker 3
Yes, my friends, it is Valentine's Day. And if today is about anything, it's about pleasing your loved ones.
And let's face it, no one does that quite as well or as often as a veteran porn star.
Speaker 3 And that's why a rabbi in Southern California has hired former porn actress Nina Hartley to teach an adult education sex seminar for his congregants at Temple Beth Ami.
Speaker 3 By the way, the key word on that sign, reform.
Speaker 3 The rabbi, Mark Blazer, surprisingly, that is not his porn name,
Speaker 3 that's his rabbinical name,
Speaker 3 explains why he couldn't lead his congregants to the promised land.
Speaker 17 The idea was actually congregants who wanted to expand what we had already done as part of our adult education lectures on the topic of sexuality.
Speaker 17 And so they said, Can we get somebody else to come in? Because, quite frankly, I had thought everything I knew about sexuality, which is compared to Nina fairly limited.
Speaker 3 Rabbi Blazer was then given the coveted Understatement of the Year Award.
Speaker 3 Rabbi Pornstar.
Speaker 3 So why Nina Hartley at a synagogue?
Speaker 17 Well, for one, she's Jewish.
Speaker 3 She does have 18 years of lecturing experience to go along with her religious background. Not to mention, she gives great Kepi.
Speaker 13
I have information that people don't often have access to. I've had more sex than most people are going to ever have.
And
Speaker 13 if you you can learn from me I'm very grateful for it.
Speaker 3 Yes,
Speaker 3 my name is Shlomo. I'm a 25-year-old Talmudic scholar.
Speaker 3 My question is this, Miss Hartley.
Speaker 3 Is it permissible under Judaic law for me to be masturbating right now?
Speaker 13 What makes mom and dad happy is good for the family. And one of the things that
Speaker 13 is given to us from whichever source you say is the delight in sexual union with your partner. It's a very important thing.
Speaker 13 Yeah.
Speaker 3 Hartley stresses to Jewish congregants that sex is indeed an important part of family life, and she even gives tips on how to enjoy edible underwear.
Speaker 3 The great part is whatever underwear you don't eat, you can wrap up in tin foil and keep for later.
Speaker 12 In technology news.
Speaker 19 If you got dumped this year because your ex said you didn't communicate enough, it might not have been your fault.
Speaker 20 if you received a mysterious text message this week from someone unexpected you are not alone this happened to a lot of people yesterday they reported they received messages that appear to have originally been sent on or around Valentine's Day this year one person tweeted so at 2 30 this morning my phone decided to send a text to my ex-girlfriend from nine months ago she made this really sweet video of us for Valentine's Day she thought I didn't respond so that led to among other things a ruined holiday so you know that's how today is going.
Speaker 6 Man, this story is crazy.
Speaker 19 Apparently, a bunch of text messages sent on Valentine's Day only got to people's phones now. Yeah, it's a huge glitch that affected thousands of people.
Speaker 6 Nobody knew about it.
Speaker 19 And now it's in the news.
Speaker 6 And I bet a lot of guys are using this as an excuse. Like...
Speaker 6 Oh, wait, wait, you didn't get that giant bouquet and that diamond necklace that I texted you? Oh my god.
Speaker 7 ATT, man.
Speaker 2 A T and T
Speaker 19 Yeah, a bunch of Valentine's texts didn't go through and it sucks.
Speaker 6 But I'm going to be honest.
Speaker 19 If your relationship ended over a missed text, maybe that was the best.
Speaker 16 You dodge the bullets.
Speaker 19
Because I don't care what anybody says. Texting is supposed to be casual.
It's not about an immediate response. That's why this isn't a problem for old people.
Speaker 19 They still send love letters in the mail.
Speaker 14 You know, be like, dearest Gertrude, I can't wait to tap that tight brand muffin of yours.
Speaker 2 Respectfully, Harold.
Speaker 19 The craziest part of the story, and this is completely true, the craziest part of the story is that some people got text messages from people who have since died.
Speaker 19 Yeah, that has got to be the most awkward booty call ever.
Speaker 6 Can you imagine just on your phone? It's like, you up? You're like, are you up?
Speaker 12 It's Valentine's Day, otherwise known as the saddest day of the year to go on pornhub. Some people think this day is about love, but really it's about arguing with strangers on the street.
Speaker 12 Um prove me wrong Valentine's Day edition.
Speaker 12 Valentine's Day is the worst day of the year.
Speaker 4 Prove me wrong.
Speaker 4 No, I mean
Speaker 12
it's rush hour for love. We have all this pressure from society to take people out.
And if you can't get it done, guess what? Everyone is upset.
Speaker 12 In Puerto Rico it's called El Dia de la Mistad which means friendship day what do you do on friendship day uh you give your friends like candy and flowers you give them you get into a fight with your partner over what restaurant booking you could not get no well then that's not Valentine's Day you have to participate yeah you can just enjoy the pretty colors and oh really you don't feel the pressure of society weighing on you on February 14th love doesn't have to be romantic I text all my family and friends on Malaysia oh yeah I'm sure all your platonic guy friends really love hanging out with you.
Speaker 8 Valentine's Day is a day to celebrate love.
Speaker 12 So the other 364 days, they can go f themselves.
Speaker 16 What other day do you wake up and just think about love first?
Speaker 12 Well, if you're a good person every day.
Speaker 24 It's an excuse to
Speaker 25 get f up, pretty much, if you're single.
Speaker 26 Some people use it to have a baby, some people use it.
Speaker 12 So Valentine's Day is an excuse to f up.
Speaker 4 Joe, not me.
Speaker 22 Yeah.
Speaker 26
You know, I do me, but for people that not getting ass, you know, dudes that don't get no buns. I live on the West Coast now.
I live in California. Yeah.
Speaker 26 You know, females are a little bit more happier, you know, because they enjoy, you know, sexual activities in their bedroom.
Speaker 26 You know, they're not having intercourse in the car, on the side of the street, in the train station.
Speaker 12 What are you talking about?
Speaker 26 I'm talking about this. When you was talking about the Valentine's Day and about dudes putting in the paint.
Speaker 12 Okay, so is Valentine's Day the worst day of the year or not?
Speaker 26 No, it's not.
Speaker 12 Chocolate's the worst candy. Prove me wrong.
Speaker 8 Chocolate's delicious.
Speaker 12 Pure chocolate, pure cocoa, tastes like shit.
Speaker 8 Why are you so angry at chocolate?
Speaker 22 Because it's overrated.
Speaker 12 Like, if you really love me, get me something that lasts. Like your HBO password.
Speaker 9 Sharing the HBO password.
Speaker 12 It's a sign of true love.
Speaker 24 And a sign of commitment.
Speaker 12 Yeah, it means I'm going to let this person f ⁇ up my algorithm.
Speaker 4 What you see walking around, that's chocolate right there.
Speaker 21 I'm chocolate. She chocolate.
Speaker 21 You see all the chocolate?
Speaker 2 You see all this chocolate? Don't make this racial.
Speaker 21 Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
Speaker 4 I'm not making it racial. I'm not making it racial.
Speaker 21 You're right, you're right, you're right, you're right.
Speaker 26 We use our skin complexion as that's the color.
Speaker 12 Okay, why? Do you like chocolate? The candy.
Speaker 15 Me? Yes.
Speaker 21 Preferencely, I like gummies. I'd rather.
Speaker 12 Sex should be a morning thing, never a night thing.
Speaker 21 Prove me wrong.
Speaker 27 I'm going to have to agree with this for me. Morning sex is the best.
Speaker 4 Morning sex is the best. I'm with you.
Speaker 12 You've got energy.
Speaker 27 Listen, people like to go to the gym in the mornings, give me a dick, and I am up.
Speaker 27 I am motivated to start my date.
Speaker 24 Like, never at night, ever.
Speaker 22 Never.
Speaker 24 When you have sex and then you go to bed, it's like a really nice.
Speaker 12 Listen, there's something called circadian rhythm.
Speaker 20 Circadian rhythm?
Speaker 12 Whatever.
Speaker 12 It's the rhythm you have
Speaker 12 as a human. Okay.
Speaker 24 That's how it looks when it happens.
Speaker 22 Yeah.
Speaker 24 Just like that's pretty aggressive.
Speaker 12 Yeah. This is a morning activity.
Speaker 24 That's like alligators eating.
Speaker 12
This is what you do in the the morning. This is like coffee.
This is nature's coffee.
Speaker 24 That looks exhausting.
Speaker 8 How is that coffee?
Speaker 12 Single people should not be allowed out of their homes on Valentine's Day. Prove me wrong.
Speaker 21 I agree.
Speaker 4 All the single people are side pieces.
Speaker 26 Sneaky links, and you know, they're gonna f ⁇ up the day. I agree with this 100%.
Speaker 4 Let the couples go out.
Speaker 12 I think you are better at this than I am. So maybe you should sit here and
Speaker 12 take my job, please.
Speaker 4 Oh, okay.
Speaker 26 Single people should not be allowed out of their homes on Valentine's Day.
Speaker 21 Prove me wrong.
Speaker 28 It kind of feels like gatekeeping.
Speaker 24 Like you have to go out and
Speaker 7 get out of here.
Speaker 24
Single people need to go out. They're the ones who need to be out.
The couples should stay home. The single people need to be the ones getting drunk.
Speaker 12 That's the dumbest idea I've ever heard in my life. How is that dumb? But Valentine's Day is not for single losers.
Speaker 23 It's not losers. Valentine's Day is a ⁇ ing up thing by society.
Speaker 12 Those who couldn't find someone on the most desperate day of the year.
Speaker 7 What are they so
Speaker 4 desperate? They're going to find
Speaker 22 out
Speaker 22 Valentine's Day.
Speaker 12 How much of a loser are you?
Speaker 24 They should be allowed out because they make it fun.
Speaker 12
Sorry, someone's pissing on the street in Brooklyn. What a surprise.
If you're single on Valentine's Day, the government should send you money. Prove me wrong.
Speaker 9 Single people, they have to take care of just themselves.
Speaker 12 Yeah, but it's a Valentine's Day thing. If people are sad on Valentine's Day, just send them some money.
Speaker 4 Money doesn't make you happy. Oh, really?
Speaker 12 No. If I gave you 20 bucks right now, would you be happy?
Speaker 4 No.
Speaker 12
Well, yeah, well, fine. I'll give you 50 bucks.
If I give you 50 bucks, would you be happy?
Speaker 8 I got you.
Speaker 7 I got you.
Speaker 27
There's discounts for married people. There's discounts for family.
What do single people get?
Speaker 12
Yeah, give us some money. Exactly.
Some tax breaks, at least. We're the ones who need it.
Exactly. We're the desperate, sad people who need that money.
I want to say desperate.
Speaker 12 Are you going out with someone on Valentine's Day? Maybe. Do you really want this? It's cute.
Speaker 23 Look at my nails.
Speaker 8 I want it. It's a fun day.
Speaker 12
All right, fine. I'll prove to you it's the worst day.
Come on a date with me on Valentine's Day. I'll show you it's the worst day of the year.
Speaker 27
Sorry, man. I can't.
I don't want to go on Valentine's Day with you. I want to go on Valentine's Day with Trevor Noah.
Trevor, if you're watching this, I want to let you know I love you.
Speaker 27
I enjoyed your show at Madison Square Garden a couple of weeks ago. You were hilarious and I know you like Indian food.
Come to Brooklyn.
Speaker 27 I will take you out to a nice Indian restaurant and show you around Brooklyn.
Speaker 4 Love you.
Speaker 12 Yeah, Valentine's Day is the worst day of the year.
Speaker 20 You guys know what today is, right?
Speaker 20 It's Valentine's Day.
Speaker 4 Aww.
Speaker 19 It's the one day you can dress up as a baby and shoot people with a bow and arrow and get away with it.
Speaker 19 And it's really nice to have a day where we just get to show that special someone that we care, isn't it? You know? And to the men out there, that's all you really need to do, all right?
Speaker 19 Because not everyone can afford flowers or chocolates chocolates or a private Kenny G concert like Kanye West. No, Valentine's Day is just about sharing what's in your heart, all right?
Speaker 19 Letting your girl know that you love her.
Speaker 16 Now ladies, if he doesn't have flowers or a bay or something, you need to cut him loose.
Speaker 19
Because clearly he does not respect you for the queen that you are. I mean, he had all year to save up and now he's trying to say he can't afford a box of chocolates.
That's $5.99 at Walgreens.
Speaker 19 He can't say $5.99.
Speaker 6 That's two turnstile jumps. That's all that is.
Speaker 19 If your man won't jump two turnstiles for you you need to cut him loose
Speaker 10 and finally today is Valentine's Day the day when flowers find out which house they're going to die in
Speaker 10 Seriously why do we give people roses? They are already dying the second you cut them. You're basically giving someone a hospice patient.
Speaker 10 Love them while you can. Just try to keep them hydrated and make sure they're as comfortable as possible.
Speaker 10 But there is a Valentine's surprise that's even worse than Rose's, stealing people's money.
Speaker 2 What is Valentine's Day? Law enforcement reminding you to keep an eye out for what they call romance scams.
Speaker 2 Officials say criminals will scour dating websites, dating apps, chat rooms, build a relationship with you with the goal of accessing your financial or other personal information.
Speaker 28 The FTC says romance scams cost nearly 70,000 consumers $1.3 billion last year.
Speaker 2 The FBI sees a large percentage of elderly victims.
Speaker 25 Let's talk red flags. This one might hurt, but if they're too good to be true, gorgeous photos, perfect job, amazing lifestyle make a scammer's job of luring you easier.
Speaker 25 If they seem sweet, genuine, caring, talking about a future together a little more quickly than typical relationships, they could be drawing you close to take advantage of you.
Speaker 10
That's right. You gotta be careful out there.
If anyone literally ever says anything nice to you, call the police.
Speaker 10 And she said another red flag is if the person has an amazing lifestyle, a perfect job, gorgeous photos. Oh my god, am I a scammer?
Speaker 10 Well, for more on these romance scams, we turn to Michael Costa. Michael,
Speaker 10 it is so sad to hear about this, especially on Valentine's Day.
Speaker 2 I know, Sarah, but every holiday is an opportunity for scams.
Speaker 2 Last President's Day, a guy on Facebook claimed he was Abraham Lincoln and asked me for money, which was clearly a scam because I had already just wired the real Abraham Lincoln $10,000.
Speaker 2 There's only one Lincoln, buddy. How stupid do you think I am?
Speaker 10
You're very smart, Michael. But let's focus on the romantic scams because I'm especially worried about how they target the elderly.
Yeah.
Speaker 2
The elderly are easy targets because they're so vulnerable and they're so horny. Honestly, I'm scared for my own loved ones.
That's why I've started catfishing my grandmother.
Speaker 10 You're catfishing your own grandmother?
Speaker 2 As a preventative measure, yes. The best way I can protect my 97-year-old grandmother from being scammed is to scam her myself.
Speaker 2 This way she feels loved and I put all the money she sends me right back into her bank account.
Speaker 2 It's the same way I stop dogs from eating discarded chicken bones laying on the street by eating them myself.
Speaker 10 I'm sure the dogs are grateful, but how does catfishing your grandmother even work? Take me through this.
Speaker 2
Okay, well, it works the same as normal catfishing. You create a profile of a charming but believable person.
In my case, Miguel Gustavo, international art dealer and king of Brazil.
Speaker 2
First, you like their posts. Then you start the DMs.
Hey, I like what I see. Show me what you got under that sweater you knitted for yourself.
Here's what I'm packing.
Speaker 10 Rose, you send your grandma nudes?
Speaker 2
Well, not my nudes, obviously. I'm not a creep.
I send her pics of guys I find online.
Speaker 10
Good. Phew.
I thought you exchanged nudes.
Speaker 15 No.
Speaker 7 No.
Speaker 2 I mean she sends me her nudes.
Speaker 12 Look, I know it's gross.
Speaker 4 I don't like it either.
Speaker 2 I am glad she's using the yoga classes I got her for Christmas, but still,
Speaker 4 I don't want to see it.
Speaker 2 Just like I don't want to spend hours texting with her about how her grandson never calls or have her explain every episode of the Yellowstone.
Speaker 4 It's just Yellowstone, Grandma?
Speaker 2 I don't have a choice, Sarah, okay?
Speaker 2 As Michael Costa, I can't keep my grandma offline, but as Miguel Gustavo, well, I can make sure her money stays where it belongs in the bank account that I'm going to inherit one day.
Speaker 10 I guess in its own way, this is actually like a loving thing, Michael. I hope all the men out there love their grandmas enough to seduce them.
Speaker 2 Thank you, Sarah. I really am the best Grants.
Speaker 17 Oh, sorry, I got
Speaker 2 my grandma's DMing me.
Speaker 2 Mia Mora, please send $5,000.
Speaker 15 I'm having my third kidney removed.
Speaker 10 Thank you so much, Michael.
