And I was, I was 131 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: doing this this panel show, this New Zealand comedy topical 132 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: panel show last night, and there was a game called 133 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: Yes Minister, where a minister from our our parliament comes 134 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: in and you have to try and trick them into 135 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: saying yes or no answers. And I didn't want to 136 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: use his real name at any point, so I googled 137 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: words that rhyme with Simon and words that rhyme with 138 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: Bridges Bridges, because his name was Simon Bridges and still is. Yeah, 139 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: so what did you come on payment framing bridge is? Yeah? 140 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 1: Well I started off its time in I called him, 141 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: I called him Simon Bridges Jones Diary. And then the 142 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: next time I tried to get him with one of 143 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: my very cleverly worded questions. I called him Siren Bridges, 144 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: and then I called him Siphon Bitches, which I was 145 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: probably over the line, and then I actually wound up 146 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 1: calling him Simeon Brown, which is the name of one 147 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: of his colleagues. Siren Bridges kind of sounds like you're 148 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: saying he has an amazing ass or something like that. Yeah, 149 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: like you are a siren the I didn't think about that. 150 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: I haven't really observed his deary year with any great detail. 151 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: But you know, the guy's a unit. He's probably got 152 00:09:55,400 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: a nice tort. But um, let's call how the overall 153 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: panel go? Please? That was my weakest That was my 154 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: weakest part of the panel, But I didn't. It was 155 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 1: difficult because I don't I don't especially um, he's on 156 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: the other side of the aisle from my political allegiance, 157 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: and so it's difficult because it's a very sort of 158 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: jovial show and so and you know, like when you 159 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 1: meet people, they traditionally that there's a humanity to them 160 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: that is removed when you're just watching them through news 161 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,679 Speaker 1: cycles and stuff. So I don't really want to be 162 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: affiliated with this guy, but I've got to play along 163 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 1: in this comedy game. So that was I found that 164 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: a little bit challenging to to to strike the right 165 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: balance of sort of trying to upend him or needed 166 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: him without you know, still respecting that the overall comedy 167 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: tone of the show. UM, the press of being a 168 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: nationally renowned when I were first rate and we're asked 169 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: to be on like we tell me or something had 170 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: to be fun and cute alongside because media dosn't one 171 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: embraces this.

Yeah yeah. 173 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: But then after that I really hit my stride. I 174 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: was I was cutting everyone up. I had some great equips. 175 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: So what we've come to love you for? I thought 176 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: you loved me for my cutting insight? It's the clips, man, 177 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: What is something you think is overrated? Um? Engaging with 178 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 1: new media or watching new programs. You know, I've got 179 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: I've got nastional of stuff I know works for me, 180 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: and I don't think I really you know, like this 181 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: might be aging or just laziness or the state of 182 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 1: affairs in the world, But I'm just going back to 183 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: my comfort food. You know, every night I've been like, 184 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 1: I've got a real problem with social media. I go 185 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: on it like my muscle memory takes me there. If 186 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: I take out my phone without even you know, the cognizance, 187 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 1: it's happening. And so every night have been like, I 188 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: should really watch this. Um, there's neatly packaged movie about 189 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,959 Speaker 1: social media that is steering at me every time I 190 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: open my computer. And then I think, that's not what 191 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: I want to do before I go to bed. I 192 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 1: want to I want to catch up with the Simpsons 193 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: back and so does everything before season nine. So nothing 194 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: happens and nothing changes, but I feel good. Yeah, I 195 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 1: like Teens. Some of the episodes in the teens seasons, 196 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: it's just smattering. At that point, I think as a species, 197 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: we we could pull a Star Trek and just start 198 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: making new culture. Like in Star Trek they're always like 199 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: into Sherlock Holmes and stuff from the twentieth century, even 200 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: though uh, there are many many centuries into the future. 201 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: But that's the work of Surathricon and Doyle. That's how 202 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: that's how, that's how good his tailor. It gets his 203 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: talons into humanity and people just can't put classics. Yeah, yeah, um, 204 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: and okay, you gotta watch. I mean for anyone who 205 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: feels reluctant to watch the social because I understand, like 206 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 1: the idea of social media in and of itself is 207 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:34,959 Speaker 1: already overwhelming, but there's something also slightly comforting to hear 208 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: like it all or see it all laid out in 209 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: a way that you can just go like, yeah, you 210 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: know what, I actually don't need to I don't even 211 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: need to feel bad about avoiding this. I don't think. 212 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: I don't think that's I avoiding it. I thought you're 213 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: gonna see, like I feel bad about being addicted to this. 214 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: I mean, these guys have made it so I'm addicted. 215 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: It's made to be addictive, so I don't have a 216 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: problem they do, no, But yeah, in that sensory like 217 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,319 Speaker 1: it is that cynical, and you know, like the way 218 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: that they've it's completely just like this runaway train now 219 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: that you're almost like you have to take it into 220 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: your own hands to sort of completely be like they're 221 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: telling me this thing is going somewhere. They don't even 222 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: they can't predict now without any kind of regulation, So 223 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: maybe it's better to hop the funk off or at 224 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: least like massively throttled back in a way that you 225 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: realize like you're not falling victim to these sort of 226 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: psychological traps. Well, it's just like I was talking with 227 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: a friend about it last night, and it's there used 228 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: to be times in my life when I'd sit and 229 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: just do nothing, not even read or watch anything, but 230 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: just like sits with my own thoughts, you know, and 231 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: there was such a great source of creativity, like becoming 232 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: bored and letting your brain actually you know, make it 233 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: as far through progressive thoughts or like, you know, as 234 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: far down different ideas that you might spark into something 235 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: of interest. But now it's like you just feel that 236 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: spice with you just just with like listening to everyone 237 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: talk simultaneously, which obviously cannot be good for you. And 238 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: to their point, they say, they talk about just how 239 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: the how the computing speeds have just you know, exploded 240 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: exponentially in the last ten years, and we're still dealing 241 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: with millions of years old brains that are not made 242 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: to take this much you know, data and this much stimulation, 243 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: like you know, through the social media things. So when 244 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: you think, when you look at it, like that and 245 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: all these problems it's causing you Like, yeah, that's right, 246 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: Like we're meant to fucking just like barely fucking use 247 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: a o L. At most it genuinely feels like I'm 248 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: short circuiting some of the time. Yeah. For me, absolutely, 249 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: As I become more and more conscious of my mental 250 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: health because obviously this year is taking its toll on everyone, 251 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: I realized like the the second, like you know, from 252 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: putting my social media apps, like the very last screen 253 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: on my phone have to be like one, two, three, four, 254 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: and like by the fifth when I'm like, oh, we're 255 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: really doing this still, We're really doing this still, then 256 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, funk, that funk. That funk that Like 257 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: let's just read or like let's listen to music, or 258 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: let's do something else. Yeah. The point that somebody makes 259 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: in the movie about how for some reason this was 260 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: really effective to me. They were like, what if when 261 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: you looked up something on Wikipedia, the entry was rewritten 262 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: based on what they thought you wanted to see, Right, 263 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 1: that's basically what social media is. Like that really clarified 264 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: to me. I was like, oh, that's right, very very bad. Um, Yeah, 265 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: that's yeah. I think somebody needs to, uh, like a 266 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: first rate institution should like make a list of approved 267 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: websites that you're like allowed to or that that don't 268 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: like break your brain, uh, like rhyme Zone and Wikipedia, 269 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: and then everything else is just unapproved zone. We just 270 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: to use rhyme Zone on like in the early two thousand's, 271 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: like that's like one of those tools that it's just like, Yeah, 272 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: that's what the internet should be. Is just like a 273 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: thing that you do. I mean I used it for 274 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 1: my wedding vowels which I wrapped. That's what it's. It 275 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: was cool he did it to on the Thong song instrument. Yeah. Um, 276 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 1: but yeah, shout out to things like the rhyme Zone 277 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: and Wikipedia that actually serve a purpose. And it should 278 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: be this rhyme Zone app that when you download it, 279 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: it's just one big button that takes over your whole 280 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: home screen. So it's the only option you'll phone anything 281 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: but just a massive rhyme zone. The new iPhone is 282 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: preloaded with rhyme Zone, rhyme Zone and Shizam and kind 283 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: of sucking somehow. A YouTube album also sneaks its way 284 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: on there, but you need you need, and it's still 285 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 1: that same YouTube youtub like, what is almost want to 286 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 1: throw my phone out there. I love the idea that 287 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: you two have stopped making new music because they're like, 288 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: people just didn't get that one. We're gonna keep rereleasing 289 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: it until ye come on, come on everybody. They're like, 290 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: what the get off the stage, trash guy, what's something 291 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 1: you think is underrated? I keeping fish keeping recently recently, Yeah, 292 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: keeping a couple of little tropical guppies. Um, and it's 293 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 1: been very soothing. I the reason I had to start 294 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: I sort of had to start keeping fish against my well, 295 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 1: it was it was thrust upon me. I play in 296 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: a fantasy football league and to try and keep things 297 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: competitive if someone's having a bad season, we introduced something 298 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: called the fish, which is like a m It's like 299 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: a vision of the wooden spoon. I suppose you've got 300 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: the wooden spoon over there. You said the wooden spoon. 301 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: I don't think that. It's like we have wooden spoons. Yeah, yeah, 302 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: well I I yeah, we got those, guy. Yeah, use them. Yeah, 303 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 1: we don't use them for discipline. You can use them 304 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 1: in the kitchen as well. Oh you know, if your 305 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: discipline in the kitchen was smacking a bottom, but the 306 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: wooden spoon and sports elsewhere in the world represents the 307 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: people who have finished last. So it's like the race 308 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: to the wooden spoon is like the opposite of winning 309 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,360 Speaker 1: the championship. And people were sort of mailing in their 310 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: seasons if they if things were going poorly, they stopped 311 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: being invested in. It's frustrating because it still has an 312 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 1: impact on what's serving at the top of the trest. 313 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: Of course, so you introduced the fish and the fishes 314 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,199 Speaker 1: if you carry the fish. So the first season it 315 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 1: was just given to the new entrant into the league. 316 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: I said, you're the fish, and you can You've got 317 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: a chance to lose the fish. Every home aim you 318 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: play in the season, the fish is up for grabs, 319 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 1: and if whoever loses the fish bowl, they become the fish. 320 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: And if at the end of the season you are 321 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: the fish, you have to before the next season starts, 322 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: you have to actually go out and buy and maintain 323 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 1: fish in a fish tank, or you're kicked out of 324 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: the league. I came last, and I was like, so 325 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: sure this would be a problem because I thought the 326 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,880 Speaker 1: whole season would get canceled. But that's just not how 327 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: America works, so the show must go on. And so 328 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: I had to go down to the local pit store 329 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 1: and I spent up to I spent like four New 330 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: Zealand dollars getting my fish tank, you know, sit up 331 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: and everything, just so I could play in this stupid league. 332 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: But the the app shot is I'm loving the fish 333 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: nice yeah, for mental health than presumably fantasy sports, which 334 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 1: are bad for mental health. And I didn't realize you 335 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 1: were doing. I forgot you're an n f L fan. 336 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: I was like getting excited. I'm like, yeah, mate, playing 337 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: a fantasy football as well. Yeah, yeah, but it's the NFL. 338 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: What do you would you say you're a Niners fan 339 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 1: or something. No, I'm a Broncos guy. Broncos that's where 340 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: it was. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember rough start. But yeah, 341 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: I actually, I mean I don't really, you know, I 342 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 1: don't really care. It's mostly just as social lubricant. It 343 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: keeps me in touch with some old friends who otherwise 344 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 1: we wouldn't never a place to congregate in earnest. That's 345 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: the service it provides. Unless you're having a good season, 346 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 1: in which case it's actually quite important, and it is. 347 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 1: A skilled base becomes the most important thing in the world. Yeah. 348 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: And finally, what is a myth? What's something people think 349 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: is true? You know, fall service versa. The Oxford Dictionary 350 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: defines myth as. Now I'm just just do you do you? Now? 351 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: Do you boys know what a gorgon is? I've definitely 352 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: heard that word before. I remember the Gorgon nights from 353 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: the movie Small Soldiers. Wow, you'll be allowed to know 354 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: that they were not the original Gorgon's good damn it. 355 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:07,439 Speaker 1: I know before Shakespeare was calling a woman shrews, Greek 356 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: fellas were calling woman gorgons, specifically the Gorgon sisters. I'm 357 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: talking stiff, no, you're you're ail And of course Meducer 358 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:25,880 Speaker 1: these yeah, these three dames, they all had venomous snakes 359 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 1: for hair. Um, pretty freaky stuff. Yeah. Yeah. And anyway, 360 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,919 Speaker 1: so there were these three sisters and this guy Perseus, 361 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: son of Zeus, and also a regular woman named Darnay. 362 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: Was like, God, damn it, I do not like those 363 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: Gorgon sisters, and I especially don't like Meducer, and m 364 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: Meducer was the only one that was mortal. I think 365 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: of the of the Gorgon sisters. Anyway, it sounds harsh, 366 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,679 Speaker 1: but it's it was kind of fair because um, not 367 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: only did have snakes for here, but if you looked 368 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 1: in her eyes, wells she bloody well turn you to stone. 369 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: What I know, I can't. It sounds like absolute utter bullshit, 370 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: but I know a lot of people like I. I 371 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: don't pay that much attention to Facebook, but sometimes my 372 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: aunts and uncles will forward a meme that's all about 373 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: that assumes Medusa will turn you to stone if you 374 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: look around. I don't understand. If you've got snakes for here, 375 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: why you go? Why are you bothering with this other? 376 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: You know, surely you want people to be able to 377 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: look at you to go, whoa, that's so unusual Meduca. 378 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: Obviously she is embarrassed with something. Put on a hat, bonytail, Yeah, yeah, exactly. 379 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: Imagine all the snakeheads in the back and it's just 380 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: like this really awful thing at the back, and it's 381 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: like no one has ever really looked at this from 382 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 1: the snakes perspective. He's the next must have been furious, 383 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 1: tethered to ahead right anyway, presumably yeah, horrible, But then 384 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: she started she started shampooing with tea tree shampoo, so 385 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: they didn't even order the bloody detritus of her scalp 386 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: was gone. Then ever beeny nutrients anyway, I mean, think 387 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: you're molting, and how much flake is flaking there would be? 388 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: He was always like molded snake skins. It's kind of baller. Anyway, 389 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: Perseus was like, look, I don't like this. I don't 390 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 1: like this at all. And then he was telling I 391 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 1: don't know, probably his dad or something something, and Athena 392 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: was nearby, and Athena was like, wow, if you've really 393 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 1: got into problem with Meducer, you want to and you 394 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: want to kill her, you gotta make sure you don't 395 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: look in your eyes and her eyes, and so I 396 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: Perseus approached her. I actually don't know what specific thing 397 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: Meduca did to antagonize him to this point. I think 398 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 1: he just didn't like her energy, but he insteed of 399 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 1: looking at her in the eyes. And anyone in Greece 400 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: at the time, but this was so brilliant, but it 401 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: seems so obvious. He used to shield with a mirror 402 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: on it to find this. I wasn't looking directly at him, 403 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: and he chopped off her head. Uh huh, and it's 404 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: and then don't they used the head? It's not a myth. 405 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: A lot of people think that's a myth, But that 406 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 1: actually happened, that he became a tool, didn't it. Well yeah, 407 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: he you know, I'm just thinking because now I'm like 408 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: realistically being like I played God of War. I remember 409 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: you just pull a gorgon head out of nowhere, turn 410 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 1: people to stone, and like just keep that head on 411 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: your hip. Really, it retained its power even after it 412 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 1: was chopped off. Yeah, it was weird, but you know what, 413 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: I don't give a fuck, you know. You know, it's 414 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: just me and Cratos doing our things. So it's weird 415 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: that it would retain its power after it's no longer 416 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: retains any life. But you it does not have its 417 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: power if you look at it through a mirror. Yeah. Also, 418 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: if if it retains its power, presumably the snakes is 419 00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 1: to charging your you're you're introducing those sorts of problems. Yeah, anybody. 420 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: A lot of people think that's not true. Uh, turns 421 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: out actual historical fact. I'd like to cordially invite everybod 422 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: who thinks that's not true to to go funk themselves. 423 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,360 Speaker 1: All right, you heard it here first, folks, Uh, we're 424 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 1: gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back to 425 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: uh check in with where we are on the fascism meter, 426 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 1: and we're back and guy, you are in New Zealand, 427 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: which has a leader who uh checks in with kindly 428 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 1: wood carving people on Twitch, as Miles was catching us 429 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: up on it is just a human being. Uh. Here 430 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: in in the States, Uh, just to catch you up, 431 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: we we still have Donald Trump as president um and 432 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 1: he is super excited that journalists are are getting um 433 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:23,919 Speaker 1: throne throne about. Yeah. Yeah. The quotes are like he's giddy, 434 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: you know that at a rally recently, just saying they 435 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: grabbed one guy and he's like, I'm a reporter, I'm 436 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,199 Speaker 1: a reporter. They threw him aside like he was a 437 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: little bag of popcorn. I mean, honestly, when you watch 438 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: the crap that we've all had to take so long, 439 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 1: when you see that, it's actually you don't want to 440 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: do that. But when you see it, it's actually a 441 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: beautiful site. That's his quote. It's a beautiful site. And 442 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: he's to have somebody just ragged all around because they're 443 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 1: performing their duty as a journalist to inform the rest 444 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 1: of the public of what's happening in the country. It's 445 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: it's I have not been particularly with do you respect 446 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:04,400 Speaker 1: to my American brethren, engaged with the U S news cycle. 447 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: While it seems like Trump has made a dog's breakfast 448 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: of the whole presidency for most of the time. But 449 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: it seems like he's really in panic mode now, and 450 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: so he's just just trying to um spread his ship 451 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: as far and wide as he can. Absolutely, I don't 452 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 1: think he's panicking. I I think he thinks he's gonna win, 453 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: and has good reason to think he's gonna win, because 454 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,199 Speaker 1: it's the panic will set in when whatever happens on 455 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: election Day, and like you have to figure out which 456 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: way it's gonna go, because right now this almost seems 457 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: like instinctive just being like, all right, let's hit the accelerator. Well, 458 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: he did the he did the He had a similar 459 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: tone when he was talking about the possibility of people 460 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: protesting on election night. I think he said something along 461 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: the lines of yeah, we'll just uh So he was 462 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: being interviewed on Fox News and he said if there's rioting, 463 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: which as we know, they define as any protests that 464 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: aren't for white suprivacy, yeah, then uh he and his 465 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: side will quote put them down very quickly. We have 466 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: the right to do that. We have the power to 467 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: do that if we want. Look, it's called insurrection. We 468 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: just send in and we do it very easy. He 469 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: didn't say who he's going to send in, but we 470 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: do it very easy. I mean it's very easy. I'd 471 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: rather not do that because there's no reason for it, 472 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 1: but if we had to, we do that and put 473 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: it down within minutes. Uh. This is sort of been 474 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: a side, but it's just a curiosity about his um. 475 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: The way his signapses work. Do you think in his 476 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: internal monologue he finishes sentences right? Uh? I don't. Yeah, 477 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: that's even Do you think he's even thought of sentence 478 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: through to its end? Right? Like? It does seem like 479 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: he starts a sentence, finishes it in his brain, but 480 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: starts the next sentence before his mouth finishes it. Um. 481 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,959 Speaker 1: But I also think there's like some skipping over that 482 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: happens where he's like, we just send in, realizes oh, 483 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: I can't say the army because the army wouldn't do 484 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 1: what I want, So he just moves forward. Yeah, he's 485 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: kind of like, Uh, it's sort of like he sends 486 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 1: a tire down a hill and then starts chasing after it. 487 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: I feel like it's like sort of the thing. It's 488 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: like he eats at the momentum, and that's what it 489 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: was like, Yeah, because like it's so disjointed and like 490 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: at times he's almost getting ahold of the tire that 491 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: he kicked down the hill, and you hear something and 492 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: then it completely he loses his grip on it, and 493 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 1: now we're talking about someone at the end, he's down 494 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: at the bottom of the hill, nix to the time. 495 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: Did you see what I did? Yeah, I came down 496 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 1: that hole to give That's like, yeah, you were chasing 497 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 1: it like a little boy. But that's that's fine. And yeah, 498 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: I mean I think this is the kinds of actions 499 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: that again, if people aren't convinced about what fascism looks like, 500 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: that's this is this is where it's at. And then 501 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: you also have Rhonda Santis the government full or to 502 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: proposing laws that are absolutely just draconian fucory, like all 503 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: of these just just a set of laws he's proposing 504 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: to essentially just discourage people from protesting. Uh. You know, 505 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: after the Unite the Right rally, there was like a 506 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: slew of bill of legal proposals that were coming out 507 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: of like Republican controlled states that were essentially trying to 508 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: make it illegal to protest or at least protests against racism. Uh, 509 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: you know, if you really look at how the language 510 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: was all worked out. But these proposals from De Santists 511 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: talk about higher charges for participating in disorderly assemblies, disorderly 512 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: assemblies or damaging statues, attaching fucking rico liability like racketeering 513 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: charges to people who are found to be like organizers 514 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: of these disorderly assemblies, So treating them like fucking mobsters, 515 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: uh if they're if they're basically trying to organize their community. 516 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: And then even make it legal to strike someone with 517 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: your vehicle if you are fleeing to safety from a mob. 518 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: M hm. So we're saying legal legalized weaponization of your 519 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: car against people who are advocating for equality, which is 520 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: from white supremacist terrorism like that, and also in cells 521 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: and you know that. Just yeah, it's it's a thing 522 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: we've seen like far too often. So I mean it's 523 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 1: you know, we'll see where these proposals go. But these 524 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: are absolutely the kinds of things that the right has 525 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: to do to be able to maintain minority power, because 526 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: the logic behind all of these laws isn't because it's 527 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: not because Florida is out of control with their protests. 528 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: They've been pretty subdued rom But you know, it's just 529 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: this whole thing. It all boils down to this mentality 530 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: that the GOP has, which is sort of, well, if 531 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: there's more of them on people on the left, then 532 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 1: we need to make it illegal for them to exercise 533 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: their power. That's just the only way they can get 534 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: ahead of it. It's like, okay, well, then just make 535 00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 1: it illegal for them to be organized. Right the There's 536 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 1: an Atlantic article that is kind of the number one 537 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: story on Drudge right now that UH is talking about 538 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: how like, basically they say the worst case we we've 539 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 1: talked on this show. Joe Biden, who is a big 540 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: fan of the show, despite the fact that we disagree 541 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: with him a lot, UH has said that, like he 542 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 1: he always puts it out there, is the worst case 543 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 1: scenario is Trump refuses to accept the his loss and 544 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: then is like swiftly removed by the armed forces. UM. 545 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: But this article points out, and like interviews a number 546 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: of intelligence experts who are really worried about this, that 547 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 1: Trump rejects the election outcome and uses his power to 548 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: prevent a decisive outcome against him. Basically like, it's not that, 549 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: it's a clear cut thing. And Trump is like, no, 550 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: it's not a clear cut thing. It's that because he's 551 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: able to muddy the waters in so many different ways. Uh, nobody, 552 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: there's not a you know, accepted version of what what 553 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 1: happened in the election. And then for three months we have, 554 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: you know, in the courts and in the streets, just 555 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:25,399 Speaker 1: a complete clusterfuck because nobody agrees you know, the thing 556 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 1: that has been happening for the past four years, which is, 557 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: you know, we can all look at the same video 558 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: and not see the same thing happens with the presidential election. Uh, 559 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: and almost definitely will happen with presidential election unless Trump 560 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: wins a clear cup victory. Um, because if Biden wins 561 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,399 Speaker 1: a clear cup victory, Trump has already told us he 562 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: uh is not going to accept it. He said, the 563 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:53,839 Speaker 1: only way that we lose this election is if they 564 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: take it from us in uh, with like widespread election fraud. 565 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: So he's gonna imply that happening no matter what. And 566 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 1: then yeah, it's just we're fully the the article compares 567 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 1: it to the months right before nine eleven, where there's 568 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 1: like these big red blinking warning signs within the intelligence community, 569 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: but there's just like not really anything in place to 570 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 1: do anything about it. And in this case, you know, 571 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 1: the call is coming from inside the house. The president 572 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:33,759 Speaker 1: is specifically the one who's trying to take the towers down. 573 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: I guess m he's just he's really um highlighting the 574 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: element of, you know, because you've got your I actually 575 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: don't know all the different things, but you've got all 576 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: of this infrastructure in place traditionally your American political system 577 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 1: to try and um protect whatever institutions they are. And uh, 578 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 1: he's a real testament to how much of that was 579 00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: based on like just goodwill well you know, the idea 580 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:06,840 Speaker 1: that they really he's operating on a whole different plane 581 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,479 Speaker 1: of existence. I mean, it's it's it's the highest level 582 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 1: of facory that you could reach for. Yeah, it's right, 583 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 1: and it's it's it's from from here where It's like 584 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 1: I don't even understand a lot of the mechanitions that 585 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: are are in place that sort of you know, that 586 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: govern your political system, and I don't think he does either. 587 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: It's just like he's pushing all the buttons that his 588 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 1: officer wants to see. What the funk happens the baby 589 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 1: flying a jet liners like, I don't know what, and 590 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 1: he're like, what the fund is that baby doing in there? 591 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 1: That's meant for fucking rational adults who understand this thing. 592 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,320 Speaker 1: Whatever not. There's no sanctity to anything anymore in this country. 593 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 1: But you know, I always liking it to this thing 594 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 1: of like when the Vikings arrived in like continental Europe 595 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: at that time, every like all the gold was stored. 596 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: A lot of gold was just stored in monasteries or 597 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 1: churches where people respected the idea of God, and you 598 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: would and dare going to a church to steal things. 599 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 1: Cut to these godless people showing up and they're like, 600 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 1: this weak ass monk is the one guy protecting all 601 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 1: this gold. Okay, well fuck it, it's ours now. And 602 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 1: people like, what are we gonna do? The thing that 603 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: God used to keep people from doing this? Well, guess what. 604 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 1: There's these people showed up and then they're not playing 605 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 1: by the same rules. So that you can't be outraged anymore. 606 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 1: You have to very quickly accept that these people are 607 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: not playing the same game and adjust your tactics accordingly. 608 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 1: Otherwise you're just gonna sit back and watch everything be 609 00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:35,280 Speaker 1: taken from right under you. Yeah, it's all norm based. 610 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: It's things that we have always taken for granted as 611 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 1: just these like little formalities like the concession speech, the 612 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: calling the other the opponent to congratulate them on winning, 613 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:52,760 Speaker 1: which is the official like you know line between Okay, 614 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 1: the election is over, this person is one. Uh, those 615 00:37:55,840 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 1: are not Those aren't official things. Um, they're is this 616 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 1: history professor from Princeton who's uh Julian Zelazer, who is 617 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 1: saying we're not prepared for this at all. We talk 618 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 1: about it, some worry about it, and we imagine what 619 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 1: it would be, but few people have actual answers to 620 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 1: what happens if the machinery of democracy is used to 621 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:19,280 Speaker 1: prevent a legitimate resolution to the election, Like it's gonna 622 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 1: be chaos for months. I can't I personally don't like 623 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: the only version that isn't that is if Trump wins 624 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 1: a clear cut victory, Because if Biden wins a clear 625 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: cut victory, I can't imagine Trump just being like, well, 626 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 1: you know, I've been bested the better man one. You know, 627 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: It's like what, it's just never going to happen. It's um, yeah, 628 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: it's it is crazy. It's also to think if Biden 629 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: were to win, it's sort of how people are talking 630 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 1: about they didn't in like two sixteen. I think when 631 00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 1: we lost a lot of iconic celebrities and everyone said 632 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: I'm done with sixteen, bring on twenty seventeen. It was like, 633 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 1: it's not the year. A lot of the times, it's 634 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: cancer that's killing these celebrities, and it's what people are 635 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: doing with they're like, you know, like COVID nineteen keeps 636 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 1: a calendar and then waves everyone on the way out 637 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 1: at New Year's saying thanks for having me. And it's 638 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 1: the same thing with like if Biden winds, it's not 639 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: like the state that the country will be left in. 640 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: It's not like immediately reparable. It's not like all of 641 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 1: the disgruntled people who are you know, like it's it's 642 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,800 Speaker 1: it's it's it's a tough I gotta tell you. Usually 643 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 1: I've quite enjoyed watching America from a safe distance, but 644 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:45,319 Speaker 1: it's becoming a tough watch. Yeah, but don't look too long, 645 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 1: we'll turn to stone. Yeah, I'm gonna fly in with 646 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: a mirror on my phone over here. All right, guys, 647 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. 648 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: And we're back. Uh. And yesterday, a couple hours actually 649 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: before we recorded this, uh, the Kentucky a g announced 650 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: that one of the three cops who fired randomly at 651 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: Brianna Taylor, an unarmed person, and murdered her. One of 652 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 1: those three cops would be charged with uh not murder, 653 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: and the other two would not be charged. It's, you know, 654 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:38,360 Speaker 1: it's what we thought it was going to be, which 655 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: is woefully inadequate. The cop who was charged as being 656 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: charged with wanton endangerment I think, uh something something along 657 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 1: those lines. Yeah, what five year maximum sentence. Uh. This 658 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:58,439 Speaker 1: is a cop who was known to try to give 659 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 1: very drunk women rides home from bars and sexually assault 660 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 1: them and not not try. He actually was accused of 661 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 1: that and was subsequently fired from the UM force. So 662 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,439 Speaker 1: the because he didn't have the like blue wall of 663 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 1: you know, silence protecting him anymore. I think they felt 664 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: like they could like do a good faith gesture that 665 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 1: people would accept at like putting this making this guy 666 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 1: actually like face some charge. But um, there's also this letter, 667 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:38,280 Speaker 1: this email to am email from one of the other officers, 668 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 1: John Mattingly, who it just makes you He sent this 669 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 1: email to his fellow Louisville police officers that was just 670 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 1: so again, it just reminds you of all the police 671 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: we've heard just be petulant in response to people asking 672 00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: them to, you know, be responsible for are the you know, 673 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:07,359 Speaker 1: violence that they are are enacting on people, and responsible 674 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 1: for the fact that they go into situations with their 675 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 1: guns drawn and are not taking that responsibility seriously. They 676 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: it's like kids being caught doing something and choosing to 677 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:25,920 Speaker 1: just like go full tilt like temper tantrum. Yeah, where's 678 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: just seeing you know, like uh de facto white supremacy 679 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 1: and ship like that just reassert itself. You know. In 680 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 1: the beginning of the uprisings, I was talking about how 681 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 1: it it's a living organism and while there was a 682 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,879 Speaker 1: lot of momentum during a lot of the demonstrations, that 683 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 1: there will always be a response because it's this you 684 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,320 Speaker 1: know phenomenon in the country that just has to sustain 685 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:57,319 Speaker 1: its existence, and it's just reasserting itself by saying, yes, 686 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 1: these people can completely botch a warrant and murder an 687 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:05,240 Speaker 1: innocent woman and two people will just fucking walk away 688 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,720 Speaker 1: and another guy will just get a really fancy charge 689 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:13,280 Speaker 1: of being which essentially just sounds like that was wanton 690 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 1: endangerment rather than you've straight up murdered an innocent person. Uh. 691 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: And it's MM, I don't know, I don't know what 692 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:26,399 Speaker 1: to say. I'm I'm not surprised. The second the they 693 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 1: were saying that the Louisville Police Department and the city 694 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 1: was going into a state of emergency. Before this announcement, 695 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 1: I think everybody knew what was going to happen. The 696 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:40,320 Speaker 1: same thing, which is in the pursuit for justice. Uh, 697 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,880 Speaker 1: we're not really getting it, but we get other little 698 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 1: you know, tokens here and there. You know, somebody might 699 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:50,719 Speaker 1: be on a magazine cover, or some company hires two 700 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 1: more people of color or something like that. But it's 701 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 1: never the hard work to really have a reckoning with 702 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: how awful this system is set up and how people 703 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 1: seeking There's an entire segment of the country that seeks 704 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,879 Speaker 1: justice and just can never get it. Uh. And that's 705 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 1: also a really unsustainable path we're going down as well, 706 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 1: because it completely erodes the trust that people having each 707 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: other in their communities and their leaders and just and 708 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:20,040 Speaker 1: will begin to create suspicion among people like you don't 709 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 1: know who you're interacting with and what the outcome is 710 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 1: going to be, because you also know you're operating in 711 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: a world where the legal system will not protect you, 712 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 1: in fact, it will prey upon you. So yeah, it's 713 00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:35,080 Speaker 1: it's just total, total bullshit. But it's the same thing 714 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,439 Speaker 1: over and over, and I think that's why people really 715 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 1: need to see that incremental changes are not going to 716 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 1: resolve any of this. This incrementalism still allows, you know, 717 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:49,240 Speaker 1: organisms organizations like the Louisville Police Department and other police 718 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,359 Speaker 1: departments across the country to operate in the same way 719 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,800 Speaker 1: because we're not actually putting our foot down and saying 720 00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: these are the things we can no longer do. These 721 00:44:57,600 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: are this is the way we need to ferret out 722 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: the bad. Add apples if you want to go with 723 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 1: that theory. But no one is taking the problem seriously. 724 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 1: It's just it's, yeah, it's it's shitty. The Hankinson uh 725 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:13,280 Speaker 1: sexual assault stuff just made me go down a rabbit 726 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 1: hole of how big a problem this is with police. 727 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 1: And there's a two thousand fourteen report it explains, you know, 728 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:28,320 Speaker 1: driving wealth female as a it's basically, you know, cops 729 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:33,360 Speaker 1: will pull women over for alleged traffic violations as a 730 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:37,879 Speaker 1: pretext to sexually harass or abuse them, and it's just 731 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:42,319 Speaker 1: so fucking dark. Yeah, I mean, I think people just 732 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 1: need to realize that a lot has to happen, and 733 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 1: it has to happen urgently, like you know, shout out 734 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 1: to people who can kind of just forget that this 735 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 1: is an ongoing problem because there aren't people in the streets, 736 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 1: uh tearing shipped down, but it's it hasn't stopped and 737 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:03,439 Speaker 1: it's not going to stop. So please don't use the 738 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: people in the streets as an indication of how engaged 739 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 1: you need to be about this issue. It's ongoing, it's NonStop, 740 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 1: and the less attention that is paid to it, the 741 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 1: longer it's going to exist and be able to essentially thrive. 742 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:24,359 Speaker 1: I decided, So I found that tremendously articulate miles I I, Um, 743 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 1: I don't really have anything to add, but um, it's yeah, 744 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 1: it's well, guy, what do you what? What do you 745 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 1: have to say for yourself? Down there would look, I 746 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 1: would say, from here, it looks like it looks like 747 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:40,719 Speaker 1: a page one rewrite to me boys, right starting, Yeah, 748 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 1: we're tossing it out. Delete the Celtics file if that's 749 00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:46,760 Speaker 1: what used to write your scripts. But yeah, it's yeah, 750 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,840 Speaker 1: I mean it really is. It's just it's it's you know, 751 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:55,160 Speaker 1: one of the many consistent illnesses in this country, uh, 752 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 1: societal ills that we just failed to address because we 753 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 1: haven't reached a tipping point where the victims look enough 754 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 1: like the people empower to do something. All right, let's 755 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:13,280 Speaker 1: talk about the election really briefly. It's an election. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 756 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 1: we use air quotes for that, I think at the 757 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 1: moment Jesus Christ there. Yeah, there's like a certain list 758 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 1: of things that Trump allies have been claiming are going 759 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:29,440 Speaker 1: to turn the election in his favor, like these October surprises, 760 00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 1: and one of them was this Hunter Biden report that 761 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 1: was going to uh make good on all the things 762 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:41,240 Speaker 1: that Trump was kind of implying when he was committing 763 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 1: crimes that got him impeached. That we just like kind 764 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:47,279 Speaker 1: of forgot about that thing. But uh, yeah, the the 765 00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 1: whole idea that Hunter Biden was you know, involved in 766 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:57,360 Speaker 1: illegal activity, used his father's position as the vice president 767 00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: to enrich himself. Yeah, it's cool man, because Ron Johnson 768 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: from Wisconsin, who is by far the fucking most the 769 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:10,759 Speaker 1: least intelligent, one of the least intelligent senators that this 770 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:14,479 Speaker 1: country has been talking all day, Wait till you see 771 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,320 Speaker 1: this report, Wait till you see me a US sitting 772 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:21,880 Speaker 1: US senator essentially just reformatt Russian propaganda into a senate 773 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:26,759 Speaker 1: legitimate Senate research document or seemingly legitimate and try and 774 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 1: drop a bomb. And it's like you're saying, it's all old, 775 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:35,880 Speaker 1: debunked bullshit from like a year ago that we've already 776 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 1: talked about that we've already said. His bullshit that everyone 777 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 1: knows is how carries no weight um of this idea 778 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 1: that Hunter Biden worked on that he was on the 779 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:47,720 Speaker 1: board of Barisma, the Ukrainian gas company, and essentially making 780 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 1: the case that his position interfered with US foreign policy, 781 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 1: which is like, first of all, just shut the funk up. 782 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:55,800 Speaker 1: If you're that you're really that concerned with that, please 783 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 1: take a look at what's happening right now. Let's catch 784 00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 1: up to now, uh and Tom, if you still have 785 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 1: that same outrage energy, which they don't um the whole thing, 786 00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 1: just think aside from this being completely just total horseshit. 787 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:10,759 Speaker 1: They further just go on to fully cell phone in 788 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 1: their little report because in their assessment, this line is 789 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:17,240 Speaker 1: in the report quote. The extent to which Hunter Biden's 790 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:20,919 Speaker 1: roll on Barisma's board uh affected u S policy towards 791 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:25,399 Speaker 1: Ukraine is not clear yet. This is what they're going 792 00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:28,920 Speaker 1: around waving like their own report is like, I don't know, 793 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,160 Speaker 1: it's kind of all sort of tenu as ship, but 794 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:33,719 Speaker 1: I don't here it is from if you want to 795 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 1: read it. That's really pulling a pulling a page from 796 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 1: the YouTube playbook there where it's just taking an old 797 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,520 Speaker 1: an old thing and Rich full manning it and saying, 798 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:52,640 Speaker 1: what about now, what about babar rhism, bubarism? No, bro, 799 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:54,839 Speaker 1: we heard that last year and it's bullshit. How did 800 00:49:54,920 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 1: this get in my consciousness again? Ah? Man, It's just 801 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 1: it's it's bad faith, it's and it's really low energy 802 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,719 Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, like it's really 803 00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:11,360 Speaker 1: not savvy older guys. It's just also that every single 804 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 1: political move that's being pulled is um there's no there's 805 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 1: no roadmap, there's no vision for what the country is 806 00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 1: meant to be. There's no forward progress. It's literally all 807 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 1: just attack politics, Like the entire basis of Republican thinking 808 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: appears to be like funk everyone, like just fuck everyone else. 809 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 1: And it's it's the the you know, the governing principle. 810 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:40,000 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's like it's it's literally unfathomable. Oh, 811 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,680 Speaker 1: I mean not literally anymore, but it seems so unfathomable 812 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,880 Speaker 1: that it's like that can that's enough to not only 813 00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 1: for them, I just I can't even articulate it. It's 814 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:55,439 Speaker 1: just what's the what's the end game? The end game 815 00:50:55,520 --> 00:51:00,399 Speaker 1: is like size everything and like enriched the like oligarchical club. 816 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:02,960 Speaker 1: It's that's it's that's really the end game. You know, 817 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:06,000 Speaker 1: when you look at how cities go bankrupt and then 818 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,920 Speaker 1: you know, utilities are privatized and things like that, that's 819 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:13,560 Speaker 1: just the pattern um that you know will eventually fully 820 00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 1: play out and a lot of people are profiting off 821 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:19,799 Speaker 1: of things while many others suffer because it's the only way. 822 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:22,799 Speaker 1: Like it's just it's you're watching it hollow itself out 823 00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,839 Speaker 1: and they don't even realize what the long term effects are, 824 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:29,400 Speaker 1: like in the sense that even if you are depressing 825 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 1: your the wages of your workers, that in turn creates 826 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,719 Speaker 1: less fucking consumers for the goods that you have, and 827 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,120 Speaker 1: then being like, what the fuss is going on? I 828 00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,480 Speaker 1: thought we can just keep people at these depressed wages, 829 00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 1: but they can't consume, and it's like, I don't know 830 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 1: what funk it. Let's just be let's just focus our 831 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:48,280 Speaker 1: attention somewhere else so we can just continue to enrich ourselves. 832 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:52,040 Speaker 1: It's I think that's all it's headed towards. But at 833 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:54,840 Speaker 1: the end of the day, it's just that we're just 834 00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,400 Speaker 1: we've arrived at that point where the whole like lie 835 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 1: of America that most people who weren't who didn't look 836 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 1: like you know, your cookie cutter American have always believed 837 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,160 Speaker 1: this is what the country has been, and now just 838 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,680 Speaker 1: so disgustingly transparent, like there's just no way to hide 839 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:13,719 Speaker 1: it it anymore. Before there are a million ways to 840 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:17,239 Speaker 1: convince yourself maybe it's okay, but now it's like, oh, yeah, yeah, 841 00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 1: oh it is a ghoulish country. From New Zealand. The 842 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:22,759 Speaker 1: impression is very much like, because we grow up with 843 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:26,840 Speaker 1: so much of your You'll meet, you know, we were 844 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 1: constantly your your pr machine has been an overdrive. My 845 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 1: entire living and breathing life, and it's sort of broadcasts 846 00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 1: American exceptionalism, like you know, it's this pristy TV show 847 00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 1: America with the best at everything, and then it does 848 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,239 Speaker 1: it's standing to feel like what we're seeing is the 849 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:49,879 Speaker 1: behind the scenes making of documentary. It's like, what this 850 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:53,000 Speaker 1: is the show right right, right? But how do you 851 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 1: put none of this stuff? And this is I mean, 852 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 1: it's a I'll stay it again. It's a tough watch, 853 00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,399 Speaker 1: but it does feel like it's all being laid beer 854 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:05,000 Speaker 1: and like because you've taught yourselves, you've you've you've self 855 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: trained to point high definition cameras that your at your 856 00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:11,080 Speaker 1: country for so long, it's like you can't figure out 857 00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:14,359 Speaker 1: how to stop broadcasting when the show starts going off 858 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:18,319 Speaker 1: the rails because like, you know, we get I mean, 859 00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:20,799 Speaker 1: New Zealand is not it's not a perfect it's not 860 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:24,080 Speaker 1: a perfect place. I'm sure that all of our problems 861 00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 1: seem very you know, backwater and trivial from what's happening 862 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 1: over there. But it's like, um, I would say instead 863 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 1: of backwater, I would say aspirational. But it's you know, 864 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 1: like it's still you know, you guys dominate the net, 865 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 1: the international airwaves so so frequently it's just um and 866 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's a bit of global schadenfreuda too. 867 00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 1: It's those assholes nub one worst, the worst part of 868 00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,359 Speaker 1: it until like I'm actually engaged in conversation with you guys, 869 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,400 Speaker 1: or like you know, if I if I properly delve 870 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:03,520 Speaker 1: into what's happening, and there is a certain element of 871 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 1: like it's the worst part of the New Zealand and 872 00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 1: me this. We have this thing called tall poppy syndrome 873 00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:08,840 Speaker 1: where if anyone gets too big for the boots, you 874 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 1: want to see them cut down. But um, there's a 875 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 1: little bit of like, wow, you know you're trying myself. Yeah, 876 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:19,319 Speaker 1: we don't just watch the good bits right at the 877 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:22,240 Speaker 1: same time, like I can you call it schadenfreude when 878 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:26,680 Speaker 1: the people that you're watching, you know, get at least 879 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:31,000 Speaker 1: brought to some form of justice or at least exposed 880 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 1: have been like killing people from other countries wantingly without 881 00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:40,879 Speaker 1: like consequence and then just ignoring that in there. It's 882 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 1: so complex, like a beautiful like platonium rod that you 883 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:51,919 Speaker 1: don't realize is killing you. A lot of the what 884 00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:55,319 Speaker 1: has being broadcasted like it genuinely looks like America is 885 00:54:55,360 --> 00:55:00,000 Speaker 1: in a in a state we're traditionally, um, a country 886 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 1: like America would come in as a farm, imperial power 887 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:06,800 Speaker 1: and care business. I mean, if only like Instagram likes 888 00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:09,880 Speaker 1: and influencers were as valuable as let's say fossil fuels 889 00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 1: or oil, uh, then maybe people would come to harvest 890 00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:16,319 Speaker 1: that in the name of democracy. But it's i mean 891 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 1: speaking of the endgame. There there were these papers leaked 892 00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 1: uh to BuzzFeed News earlier I think or in the 893 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:29,920 Speaker 1: last week. It's being called the fins End leak. But 894 00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:34,400 Speaker 1: it's just you know, more evidence the capitalism is broken 895 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:38,800 Speaker 1: without way more regulation. But it's all about two trillion 896 00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:44,399 Speaker 1: dollars worth of crime being legitimized by the financial institutions 897 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:48,920 Speaker 1: that are supposed to sort of lockdown that. You know, 898 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 1: it's the massive it's Deutsche Bank, it's HSBC, it's JP Morgan, 899 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 1: it's the um financial institutions that are supposedly so big 900 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,319 Speaker 1: that you had to bail them out because they're you know, 901 00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:07,359 Speaker 1: the whole lynchpin that the whole thing is based on. UM. Yeah, 902 00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 1: two trillion dollars of transactions and this is just like 903 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:13,920 Speaker 1: a very small, like tip of the Iceberg situation, uh, 904 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:20,040 Speaker 1: where you know they were knowingly letting these transactions go 905 00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 1: through that were basically part of blatant money laundering and 906 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:33,720 Speaker 1: blatant financial scams that we're funding terrorism and funding Uh 907 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 1: you know, there were Ponzi schemes. They were terrorism, Russian crime, 908 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 1: Russian organized crime, um, and they were What was happening is, 909 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:49,840 Speaker 1: you know, small businesses would work with somebody who would 910 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 1: get access to their money and like their payroll taxes, 911 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 1: which just like half years worth of payroll taxes would disappear, 912 00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 1: uh and it would be uh funneled to these accounts. 913 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:09,719 Speaker 1: And because Deutsche Banker, you know, these supposedly trustworthy institutions 914 00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 1: would vouch for these schemes, that money would just disappear 915 00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:16,640 Speaker 1: instead of being like a thing where you're like, oh, 916 00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:20,040 Speaker 1: this is fraud, like can you help me get this 917 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:24,000 Speaker 1: back or you know, say bygones, be bygones when like 918 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 1: when somebody has clearly like stolen your credit card or something. 919 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:31,040 Speaker 1: Instead of that, these small businesses either went out of 920 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 1: business or had to lay people off because uh, you 921 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:38,560 Speaker 1: know some financial institution it was like better for the 922 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 1: bottom line of some financial institution. UM. So yeah, that's 923 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:49,080 Speaker 1: that's something that was just and I mean there's a 924 00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 1: Panama papers, there's this, there's every fucking leak on earth. 925 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 1: You need to say, come on y'all, like it's it's 926 00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,160 Speaker 1: all happening in the top up. You know, two percent 927 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 1: or half a percent are completely just siphoning all of 928 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:08,880 Speaker 1: the wealth and stability out of this country. Um, yet 929 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 1: we still many people still cannot go arrive at that 930 00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:16,600 Speaker 1: point intellectually where you say this is an this is 931 00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:20,640 Speaker 1: completely unsustainable and unable to connect the dots to how 932 00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 1: that affects them. Where yes, Like to your point, a 933 00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 1: business who has been fucked over by this like massive 934 00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:31,000 Speaker 1: money laundering scheme involving these large banks has to lay 935 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 1: off people. People have no jobs, people can't pay rent 936 00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:37,880 Speaker 1: or take care of themselves, and that creates like it's 937 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 1: not just the financial aspects, it causes trauma all across 938 00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 1: the board. And I think a lot of people can't 939 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:47,200 Speaker 1: connect those two either of like it's like, wow, those 940 00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:49,440 Speaker 1: guys made a lot of money. It's like, no, man, 941 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 1: you know what two trillion dollars worth of trauma human 942 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 1: trauma looks like because you pulled two million to trillion 943 00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:57,760 Speaker 1: dollars out of the economy. That's also another measure that 944 00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 1: people need to understand, like how to also see how 945 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:03,240 Speaker 1: we measure these things because it's not purely that like 946 00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:07,160 Speaker 1: it's hard to conceptualize two trillion dollars and what that does, 947 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 1: But if you think about how many people could use, 948 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:13,720 Speaker 1: you know, what two trillion dollars does for people who 949 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,120 Speaker 1: have been laid off or loss their health insurance or 950 00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 1: are seeking housing things like that, that's where you begin 951 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:23,200 Speaker 1: to see what is happening here. And when people are 952 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:25,440 Speaker 1: just sitting on that money and people are like also 953 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,480 Speaker 1: need the support, it should really be disgusting to people 954 00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:30,320 Speaker 1: and it should be a very quick idea or a 955 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:33,080 Speaker 1: quick conclusion to make the saying we have to rebalance 956 00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 1: this for the good of everyone. But again, I think 957 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,520 Speaker 1: through our media and things like that, we've really done 958 00:59:38,520 --> 00:59:41,960 Speaker 1: a good job with inoculating people against this and making 959 00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 1: it such a like asport, like this idea of you know, 960 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:47,640 Speaker 1: we protect millionaires because we still treated as this like 961 00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:51,440 Speaker 1: aspirational thing because we have all these like you know, 962 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 1: visions of like successful people that we think we can 963 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 1: also be that you know, we have this like weird 964 00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:02,040 Speaker 1: fake class solidarity with the well fiefs. Yeah, there's that 965 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:05,360 Speaker 1: documentary The Act of Killing from two thousand twelve that 966 01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:08,680 Speaker 1: I always talked about, but uh, it's basically about this 967 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:15,400 Speaker 1: genocide that happened in Indonesia where a democratically elected leader 968 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:19,960 Speaker 1: was replaced by a dictator with not necessarily the help 969 01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 1: but at least the complicity of the United States. And uh, 970 01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:29,120 Speaker 1: like we tend to we prefer dictators and fascism to socialism. 971 01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 1: And the people who commit the genocide are like who 972 01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 1: do the actual killing. It's called the act of killing 973 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:41,439 Speaker 1: because the stars of this documentary are the actual people 974 01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:44,120 Speaker 1: who are on the street directing or actually physically doing 975 01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:48,240 Speaker 1: the killing of like thousands of people. And they like 976 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:52,680 Speaker 1: associate American capitalism with gangsters. They're like those are one 977 01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:54,800 Speaker 1: and the same, and they think gangsters are cool and 978 01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:58,320 Speaker 1: like they're the aspirational thing. And it just like that. 979 01:00:58,520 --> 01:01:02,479 Speaker 1: Ever since I saw that, American capitalism made like more 980 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:06,200 Speaker 1: sense to me that, um, like the way they think 981 01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:08,919 Speaker 1: of it as like socialism and things like that are 982 01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 1: for uh you know, nerds, nerds, and then American capitalism 983 01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:17,800 Speaker 1: and capitalists success are for like the gangsters, and like 984 01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:21,480 Speaker 1: that's what's cool. Like, those are the two sides, the 985 01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,120 Speaker 1: two poles. Do you think there's also an element of 986 01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 1: self delusion where it's like, you know, people would rather 987 01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 1: associate themselves with the strata or traditionally above, and so 988 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:38,160 Speaker 1: it's like they don't actually see that the money or 989 01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:42,040 Speaker 1: whatever the trauma is coming out from them totally is 990 01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 1: they're mentally associating with the where it's happening from. Yeah, 991 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:50,040 Speaker 1: it truly is this. It's easier to think I'm going 992 01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:53,760 Speaker 1: to be rich than I am poor right now, and 993 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:56,880 Speaker 1: I think not enough people are coming to grips with that. 994 01:01:57,520 --> 01:01:59,720 Speaker 1: And I think also too, like you like, even like 995 01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 1: the stories we tell on TV, like they're not not 996 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:05,480 Speaker 1: a lot are very realistic in terms of like, you know, 997 01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:08,880 Speaker 1: most houses that we see the characters live in those 998 01:02:08,880 --> 01:02:11,360 Speaker 1: aren't houses anyone like you know. That's like you have 999 01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 1: to be of You have to have a pretty significant 1000 01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 1: income for your home to look like the people on TV, 1001 01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:21,120 Speaker 1: but we're shown that as being normal. So that also 1002 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,400 Speaker 1: creates like a sense of shame around what you're able 1003 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:26,600 Speaker 1: to afford, because if that's the baseline, then you're kind 1004 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:28,200 Speaker 1: of like, Okay, I'll get there, I'll get there. I'll 1005 01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:29,919 Speaker 1: get there. I'll get there. That's just I just gotta 1006 01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:31,720 Speaker 1: keep working and I'll get there. I'll get there, rather 1007 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:33,560 Speaker 1: than saying, like, hold the funk up, Why aren't I 1008 01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:36,400 Speaker 1: there right now? Why isn't this normal? Why do I 1009 01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:42,400 Speaker 1: have three jobs to barely afford my apartment? Um, because 1010 01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 1: I think we still have this idea like we can 1011 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:46,360 Speaker 1: get there, rather than saying like we need to actually 1012 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 1: flip over the fucking table, rather than still still sit 1013 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:53,280 Speaker 1: at it and wait for our hand, that hand to 1014 01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:55,280 Speaker 1: get dealt to us. It's like fun that it's not 1015 01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:58,120 Speaker 1: gonna happen, not not at this rate or else you 1016 01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:00,320 Speaker 1: probably wait have to wait for fucking life times for 1017 01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: something like that to happen, or at least work for 1018 01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 1: fucking lifetimes to earn that amount of money. Yeah, it's 1019 01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:09,560 Speaker 1: always interesting when an American TV show or movie decides 1020 01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:15,160 Speaker 1: to show class in any way like that's considered revolutionary 1021 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 1: as opposed to just like the status quo UM, whereas 1022 01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:23,920 Speaker 1: the status quo is just a like fairy tale where 1023 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 1: people where a blogger in New York City can live 1024 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:31,000 Speaker 1: in like an amazing apartment in sex in the city, 1025 01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:35,200 Speaker 1: or like uh, or like friends that these are people 1026 01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:38,800 Speaker 1: who never seem to work, who like live in amazing 1027 01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 1: apartments in Manhattan, when like that became impossible, Like all 1028 01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:49,240 Speaker 1: those shows also always become like, you know, it's this 1029 01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:54,080 Speaker 1: brave TV show acknowledges that income in equality exists. It's 1030 01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:57,760 Speaker 1: not people living their lives ordinarily, it's the fact that 1031 01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:03,439 Speaker 1: they had up against it. As the concentration of the show. Yeah, yeah, 1032 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:06,160 Speaker 1: you're not seeing a life just being lived.
