5
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:16,759
Speaker 2: how you doing?

6
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 3: I'm doing well, Mark, how are you doing today?

7
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 2: Good?

8
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 3: I have a It bothers me to think how much

9
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 3: money we waste in congressional hearings and Senate hearings and

10
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 3: Supreme Court reviewing things. How come with this women's sports issue?

11
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 3: How come they don't just set up a vote, go

12
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 3: to the NCAA, have all the women secure email vote

13
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 3: and see how they feel, rather than having a bunch

14
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 3: of geriatrics that are just trying to get votes, trying

15
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 3: to make decisions that affects millions of women.

16
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 2: Well, it's just people playing politics with it. Listen, it's

17
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 2: just simple common sense. You don't have guys playing in

18
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 2: women's sports. It's absolutely ridiculous. I mean, I was in

19
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 2: high school. I played football. I thought I'd be great.

20
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 2: What you go out there in the field and you

21
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 2: may be good, But then all of a sudden, these

22
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,320
Speaker 2: guys much bigger than you just jump on you and

23
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 2: tackle you. And it's tough. If I could have gone

24
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 2: down there and played on the against the women, I

25
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 2: would have done much better. I would have been Tom Brady.

26
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 2: I would have crushed them all. But it's ridiculous. It's

27
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 2: absolutely ludicrous men playing in women's sports. Let's go to

28

Speaker 4: Yeah, I have cousins that have graduated from the nursing

32
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 4: schools when they were in hospitals, and that when they

33
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 4: started making nurses go to college, that's when the shortage happened.

34
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: Well, you have to go to college to be a nurse.

35
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 4: Now, yes, oh, yes, you have it. Well, to get

36
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 4: a nursing degree, you have to have a college nursing degree.

37
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 4: You don't get taught traded the hospital anymore. You have

38
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 4: them for i'd say thirty maybe more years.

39
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, most there's is a pretty good It is

40
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,200

Speaker 6: for example, you don't have a cell phone. This is

45
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,840

84
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 5: smelling weed and I live in a brownstone. I'm smelling

85
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 5: weed at my house, and say, what the dollar is

86
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 5: going on here? I look out the window and Kathy

87
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 5: Hoko and Andrew Cuomo should have thought about this in advance.

88
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 5: They have no foresight on my stoopid in the entrance

89
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 5: to my building, there are four teenagers from the local

90
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 5: junior high school lighting up these spliffs that would have

91
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 5: made Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir of the grateful, dead, proud.

92
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 5: They look like cigars. So I go out there and

93
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 5: I say, all right, guys, get off the stoop. And

94
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 5: one of the guys looks me and starts bad mounting me.

95
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 2: Mistake.

96
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 5: After a couple of choice words and gestures, and little

97
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 5: did he know across the street and on the right

98
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 5: side of me, about twenty feet away with all my friends.

99
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 5: I you know. So after a couple of choice words,

100
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 5: these kids left. But now they were on their lunch break.

101
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 5: They're gonna go back to school, all stoned out and everything.

102
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 5: And now the marijuana that these kids are buying from

103
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 5: these pot shops, it's much more potland like soup from

104
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:21,679
Speaker 5: South Carolina said, And they're probably like getting their older

105
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 5: brother or a cousin or somebody who's about to go

106
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 5: in the weed shop and they give them money and

107
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 5: they say, get some for us too. We never figured

108
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:36,520

00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, you know, the nineteen eighties marijuana was

112
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 2: totally different from today's weed.

113
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 5: It's just like twenty three percent THC.
