Yeah, 63 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: I have a question, Um, what did Black Rifle co 64 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: Coffee do? They advertise there's an ad, but the the 65 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: what started is there like this right wing coffee company 66 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: where they're like patriots drink this. It's like they like 67 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: literally called it like tactical caffeineation for like operators and 68 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: that civilians. It's like this hyped up, hyper militaristic right 69 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: wing fucking take.

And but then it got weird because 74 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: then the owner of the company's like, oh, we're not 75 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: we're actually not aligned with that kid, and we're not 76 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: trying to bank we're not we don't like we don't 77 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: support him or anything. And it's a tragedy. And then 78 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: right wing Twitter came for Black Rifle Company coffee because 79 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: they weren't racist enough either way.

It's just like utter trash. It's sucking, 83 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: the antithesis of everything we stand for. But this is 84 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: what happens when you have a huge advertising operation that 85 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: will dynamically insert things and piece of the t d 86 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: Z pie.

All of that plenty more, 124 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: But first, Alison, we like to ask our guest what 125 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: is something premier search history. I searched what shape is 126 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: giraffe poop? And the reason this came up in addition 127 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: to it just being a passion of mine on my podcast. 128 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: So my podcast comes up twice a week Monday's a 129 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: one on one Thursday as a panel show. And on 130 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: the most recent panel show, one of my guest, Jackie Johnson, 131 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 1: was talking about having just moved into a house that 132 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: has a yard, and I was asking does her dog 133 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 1: love the yard? And she thought he would, but turns 134 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: out he just goes out there and eats Sorry, she 135 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: the dog is a sheet. She just goes out there 136 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: and eats squirrel. Shoot, yes we're familiar, Yes we know, 137 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 1: we're familiar with Jackie's dog and these parts. Okay, Well, 138 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: apparently all Chooch does in the yard is eat squirrel poop. 139 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: And then I was saying, I don't think I could 140 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: even identify squirrel poop in a poop line up, And 141 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: so then we were going around and you know, tackling 142 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,599 Speaker 1: the important issue of whether we could identify squirrel poop, 143 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: and then I brought up I believe giraffe poop is 144 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 1: cube shaped. And I don't know why I know this, 145 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: but I feel like it's because my son is very 146 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: into animals and has all these different zoo books and 147 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: there's like a book called what did they do with 148 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: all that poop? No? What do they do with all 149 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: that poop? Um? I just first, yeah, what do they 150 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: dupe with all that poop? Um? And I just feel 151 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: like I have seen square giraffe poop. And then my producer, 152 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: whom I love, was real slow on the Google, so 153 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: I had to google it. Uh, And anyway, it's sort 154 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: of inconclusive. It's we decided it's cube shaped. I believe 155 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: that maybe that's what I'm thinking of. Yeah, I was 156 00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: on a very specific podcast episode of Creature Feature talking 157 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: about animal ship, and I remember that I walked to 158 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: it like, wait, hold on, there's cube shaped ship and 159 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 1: it's wombats. I know, yeah, I know, wombats definitely have 160 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: cube shaped ship. But I think, shout out to all 161 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: the cube shitters out there, and yeah, I don't anyone 162 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: out That's what I was thinking of then, because when 163 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: I finally found a picture of giraffe poop, it was 164 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 1: more um like we just we described it as cushion 165 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 1: cut if you know different diamond shapes.

You think that's what I would have googled. 168 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: But which, by the way, rabbit poop is tricks shaped 169 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: and they made a rabbit the why did they do that? 170 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: Or did they do it on purpose? Right? To be 171 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: for kids? Kids with me? Eat my ship pretty pretty good, 172 00:10:55,400 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: dunk by the tricks rabbit speaking. I'm just how you 173 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: would know, Like you know, I'm I've I've lived in 174 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: areas where squirrels are frolicking around, and I've had pets, 175 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: and I've never been able to be like, oh my 176 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: dog does is eat squirrel ship? And That's when I'm 177 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: really confused, Like how are you witnessing that I've never 178 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 1: even been like, oh, there we go, I just stepped 179 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: to more squirrel chis you should have been on this episode. 180 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: That's what I was saying. Um that so what I 181 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: was saying, how do you know? How do you know 182 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: it's not rabbit poop? And are you like, are you 183 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: seeing chow swallow it? Are you just seeing her play 184 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 1: with it? What's going on? I needed like eight episode 185 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: podcast series looking into this true crime of chooch eating 186 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: squirrel poop. I'm glad we have another fellow truth seeker 187 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: on the show today because I'm not accepting this description 188 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: from Jackie, and when she is on this show again, 189 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: I will press her for more answer. Thank you, thank you. 190 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: Let's take this across all the podcasts in America. It's interesting. 191 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: I always assume the circular shape was that way because 192 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: it has the smallest like surface area to volume ratio, 193 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 1: Like that it was like covering it up so it 194 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: wouldn't smell as much, so like predators couldn't hunt them. 195 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: But I guess, oh my god, we got a scientist 196 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: on our hands. Well I I guess that's not even 197 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: remotely true. I don't I might actually have the worst 198 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 1: volume to surface area ratio. I don't know. I just 199 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: googled it and it's like the some other shape that 200 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: I can't even pronounce. The ico head icosahedron has the 201 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: lowest surface area to volume ratio. So what does it 202 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 1: look like it looks I don't know icosahedron, co sahedron, 203 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 1: How mean sides is that? But I assume because like 204 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 1: spherical ice cubes, isn't that the whole idea behind them 205 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 1: is that they don't melt as much because they have 206 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: lower surface area. Um, I just thought it was a 207 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: cool thing from interest board, and I just thought it 208 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: was a way to sell more ice cube trays, right, Yeah, 209 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,719 Speaker 1: it could be all those So, I mean it makes 210 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: sense because I feel like I got big in Japan 211 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: when like some bartenders like hand cutting spheres of ice 212 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: and like it's the only way to like not water 213 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: down your scotch. But okay, the sphere is the has 214 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 1: the best ratio, I think, and then I co shedron 215 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 1: is the one with the second best twenty sides because 216 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: it does anyways, this has been so you mean a 217 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: d N D die you would, right? Exactly? How come 218 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: more animals aren't shipping out d N D die but 219 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: is there actually any animal that does that? There needs 220 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: to be I mean I do when I've had a 221 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: very specific combination of fiber and uh, cheetos. Yeah, it's 222 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: just do I forgot you're very familiar with Yeah, you know, 223 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: we got to know each other. Yeah, that's how that's. 224 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: People are like, why do you guys do it? You know, 225 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: Nicky Glazer was on and but around like the chemistry. 226 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: I'm like, look, I know we know what each other's 227 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 1: ships look like. That's how we keep it tight on 228 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: this show. It's the part of the pit the dock. 229 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: Every day is doc that we only share with each other, 230 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: is just a history of about movements and quiet. I'm normal, alright. 231 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: And I think you made a mistake because when I 232 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: got a link to the document, there were pictures at 233 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: the beginning, and I just didn't know what that was about. Well, 234 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: consider that you've entered the circle of trust. Thank you 235 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: very much. I do remember a good friend of years ago, 236 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: a good friend of mine, was in his bathroom and 237 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: through the door he yelled, I wish you were a 238 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: guy so that I could invite you in here to 239 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: take a look at this. And that's like one of 240 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: those weird things that I think about so frequently? Is 241 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: that a thing that guys do often? So I have 242 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. I have to tell a really 243 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,479 Speaker 1: gross story right now. This is a very sca scutological 244 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: beginning to this episode. But so my dad, one of eight, 245 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: grew up very you know whatever. You know that they 246 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: were very check to check. It was like in a 247 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: very small apartment in inner city Philadelphia, and him and 248 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: his brother had a competition where they would save giant 249 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: shits in a in a shoebox and like and show 250 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: it to each other. That's amazing, And I think it 251 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: was like, Yo, look how much I full like like uh, 252 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: but yeah, I guess it's a thing with more than 253 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: just like that. I was so desperate to have like 254 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: that affirmed that that was that they weren't the only 255 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: humans who did that. That the second you talked about 256 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: one human doing that, I was like, okay, I gotta 257 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: let this off my check up the game. I wish 258 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: you could talk about it. You're like, okay, So yeah, 259 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: that's what I was gonna say. Jack. I want to um, 260 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: I want you to feel seen and heard. But to me, 261 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: different between my friend wanted me to come into the 262 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: bathroom and look at his toilet present versus a shoebox, 263 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: like once you take it out of water, if that's 264 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: a whole different animal, I agree, I don't. I can 265 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: only imagine how bad it smelled and how how many questions. 266 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: I don't know that you know the answer, but these 267 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 1: are things that you could find out. Um, one shoebox. 268 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: Did they have multiple shoeboxes? And how are they even 269 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: getting it out of the toilet? Were they using like 270 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: the kind of netcork like get a goldfish out of clean? 271 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: Do you clean it the clean the box every time? 272 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: Is it a new box? The fact that I work 273 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: didn't ask more follow up questions is I don't know 274 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: what's wrong with me that I wasn't like, wait, weren't ready. 275 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: But I think it was like so young that it 276 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: was just like, yeah, okay, that's a that sounds like 277 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: Uncle Berry the Mad out Treatment, how mad I would 278 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: open it at out of her show, and being like 279 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 1: a shoe box a simple thing, what's really a shoe 280 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: is really contained? And then you're like, wait, this is 281 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: about some people shopting in a box. But the I 282 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: was gonna say before Jack completely scorched the earth with 283 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 1: his anecdote, I do have a there is a I 284 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: know somebody. Look, I'm not gonna lie. Yes, I have 285 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: a text threat where we send ship pictures. Do you 286 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 1: really I don't send them. I don't send him. My 287 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 1: one friend does it as a bit, and he always 288 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: acts he the bid is always he treats it like 289 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: an art composition where he says what his motivation was 290 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: and what like, what the process was, and then I 291 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: always respond with a scathing art critique of the actual 292 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: the dumpy took. It's really stupid. I don't even know 293 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: I just said that out loud. But that's some insight 294 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: into what do you have a bunch of I think 295 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: we have a bunch of TDZ ads that are gonna 296 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: run on the radio during Christmas break, and so there's 297 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: gonna be a bunch of new people coming to the show. 298 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: And this is gonna be the most recent full episode. 299 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: They hear us opening up with twenty minutes on people 300 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 1: on us just sharing pictures of poop uh and and 301 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: but this is America, shared consciences, And I defy a 302 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: listener to say they don't know anything about this or 303 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: not their lives hasn't intersected with pooh talk culture. Okay, 304 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: it's around. And it's funny because I was a friend 305 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: of mine who has a really young son who's like 306 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,120 Speaker 1: three or four, had like a play date and one 307 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,479 Speaker 1: of the like, her son's potty trained, but her friend's 308 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 1: son isn't. So when he went to use like the bathroom, 309 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: like his friend came to because he's like, oh, I'm 310 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: not potty trained, and they both just watched him take 311 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 1: a dump, like up close, like they're both like he 312 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: was pooping, and his friend was like, Okay, okay, let's 313 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 1: see what you're doing here. Okay, that's cool. And I 314 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: was like, you know what this is just this is 315 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: since the times of the ancients, you know, this is 316 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,360 Speaker 1: just who we are. How old are your kids, Um, 317 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: they're they're gonna be four and two in February.

And yeah, that's a whole thing. 319 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 1: The kids like don't want to be lonely when it's happening, 320 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: you know, they feel like they're missing out, just like 321 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: shut them out in a room by themselves. So like 322 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,400 Speaker 1: that's that's the whole thing you have to get your 323 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: mind around.

Yeah, it's very 333 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 1: interesting because like those are like sort of like benchmarks 334 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: of like growth, you know what I mean. Like now 335 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: I'm a toilet user, you know what I mean. So 336 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: now I'm like and I remember, and this probably goes 337 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 1: I probably have said this before. I remember when I 338 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 1: was six years old, my dad got a cam quarter, 339 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: like you know, basically got a cam quarter and the 340 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: first thing that shot on it is me filming my 341 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,679 Speaker 1: own ship. That Christmas morning, I took the camera and 342 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 1: I'm zooming as a slow push in on a little 343 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 1: six year old turn And I like, that's just like 344 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: family lure. And now you're a critic on that thread. 345 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: I'm a critic. He went from filmcro to critic. Exactly. Alright, guys, 346 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll get come back. Alice. 347 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: I'm talking about underrated and over it and we're back. 348 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: Uh And Alice, we like to ask our guests, what 349 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 1: is something you think is underrated. I don't know if 350 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 1: this is like underrated for everyone, but for me, I 351 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 1: had underrated the value lately of like what I would 352 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: call comfort food TV because my husband and I have 353 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 1: been watching all these Prestige TV shows, which they're good 354 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: and I enjoyed them. However, we recently got sucked back 355 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: into Vanderpump Rules. I was very into Vanderpump Rules a 356 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: few years ago. Um, I couldn't stop talking about it, 357 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: and somehow I made every podcast appearance I was on 358 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: about it, which I feel like, I'm no now I'm 359 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: doing it about poop um. But and then I just 360 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 1: sort of fell off and I didn't keep up with it. 361 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: And then we were watching Real Housewives of Salt Lake 362 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: City and I was sort of getting back into the 363 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: Bravo world, and we decided, let's just watch the most 364 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: recent episode of Vanderpump Rules. Even though I we we 365 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,959 Speaker 1: weren't caught up and it is like hanging out with 366 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: old friends. It's so pathetic how comforted we feel the 367 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: fact that we can just dive in. We don't need 368 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 1: you know, we already know what they're like. Um, and 369 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: like every night now we watch multiple episodes. I don't 370 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 1: know that I feel good now. I don't feel bad 371 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 1: about it though. It's like exactly what I needed. Yeah, 372 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: no need to feel bad. It's good, it's great. I 373 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 1: wish I had done it sooner because I've been sort 374 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 1: of like looking for something to be excited about TV wise, 375 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: and now I'm excited about catching up with my friends 376 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: on vander Pump every night. Yeah, that's like me and 377 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: the ladies of Salt Lake City. I just can't I 378 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: just can't believe. I can't believe what I'm seeing every week. 379 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: Who's your favorite lady and who's your least favorite? Because 380 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,439 Speaker 1: I have I ranked them right? Mary, I hate. I 381 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 1: can't stand Mary herself. Loathing is just despicable. That whole 382 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: thing of like when I see black people at a 383 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: convenience store, I'll go to another CONVENI I'm like, your yes, 384 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: what are you saying this in front of a group 385 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: of white women like it was like this performative self 386 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: hatred that really rubbed me the wrong way. And then 387 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: Anna started sending me Subreddit posts about how she's a 388 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 1: full on scammer who says she's a god and like 389 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: forces all the parishioners at her churches to give her 390 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: all this money. H so more than like who I like, 391 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: I just know Mary rubs me the absolute wrong way. 392 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: But I will watch because that's part of the thing 393 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: you took aut something like I need something to get angry. 394 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 1: I know that's enjoying it. She's the one who is 395 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 1: married to her grandfather, her step grandfather, her step grandfather, 396 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: and also accused someone of smelling like hospital. Yes, and 397 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: it just the syntax of that bothers me. Is that 398 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: how you say it, like you smell like hospital, smell 399 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: like a hospital, or yeah, it's very brit it's like 400 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 1: how babies talk. Well. The British also referred to it 401 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: as hospital hospital or oh you smell like sick, right do? I? Um, yeah, 402 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: it's there. I don't know, I don't know. I don't 403 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: know this thing. It's a it's a mess and a half. 404 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: But it's also interesting because like these people are. There's 405 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: also this layer on top of like vapid house Real 406 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: Housewives culture that's president all the shows. Then you like 407 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: the you know LDS Mormon church layer on top of 408 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: it that's like pushing and pulling the cast members in 409 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: certain directions. So it's all vers to take. I did. 410 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: What I didn't realize is that they're all like there 411 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: are according to the show, there are a lot of 412 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: Mormons who drink, Like I've only known in real life. 413 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 1: I've only known Mormons who don't, who are like pretty 414 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 1: you know, as far as I can tell, devout and 415 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: follow the rules, and like, I've never known a Mormon 416 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: in real life who drinks. But the Jack Mormon community, 417 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: that's what they're called Jack Mormons. But is that like 418 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 1: X Mormon or does that just means grew up Mormon 419 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: Jack Mormon. Yeah, exactly, new Jack Mormon. It's like Jack. 420 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 1: It might not be called that anymore, but like when 421 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: I lived in Dayton, a bunch of our best friends 422 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 1: were Mormon, and that was that was the thing back 423 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,160 Speaker 1: in the nineties that they referred to it as. I've 424 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 1: also heard of a nomo momo, which is someone who's 425 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: no longer a Mormon, Momo, no more Mormon? Oh got it? 426 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: Not super fans of the Dodgers picture Hideo Nomo. But 427 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: also that U, I mean that wind up it was 428 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 1: something else. That diagram is an exact circle. I'm so 429 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: tired of that, mean, Alison, what is something you think 430 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: is overrated? Overrated? And this is controversial even it's controversial 431 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: even for me to say it, But of late I 432 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 1: have felt that sleeping in is a little bit overrated. 433 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: Because I have children, I do not get to sleep 434 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: in very much. However, are my mother in law is 435 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: here and she wakes up early and she loves to 436 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: take care of the kids, or we tell ourselves that. 437 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: So my husband and I have been sleeping in this 438 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: week like like till like there's days where I slept 439 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:03,719 Speaker 1: into like past eleven. I mean it is, and I 440 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: wake up like get more coming to than waking up alone. 441 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: Even though it feels like, oh I needed that, like 442 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: I need have been needing that for the last five years. 443 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: I also for the rest of the day feel out 444 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 1: of it and your responsible and gross. It's like I 445 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 1: can't shake off the gross feeling of I woke up. Yeah, 446 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:45,199 Speaker 1: maybe kind to yourself, Alison, be kinder today. I have 447 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 1: that same thing like where I feel like if I 448 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: wake up too later, if I get too much sleep, 449 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 1: I'm like gruggy the next day. And also like I 450 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: and I can't tell if it's just self like me 451 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,919 Speaker 1: being a where that I got a lot of sleep 452 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:06,239 Speaker 1: and feeling bad that it also happens with showering. Like 453 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: I have this like kind of loose theory that if 454 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: I don't shower, actually physical like sleep left over all 455 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 1: my body because like I'm always more tired if I 456 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: don't shower. And I'm like scientist, I can't just be 457 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: like all mental, but I think it is. I think 458 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: it's all mental. I'm just glad we're doing this on 459 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: Zoom because it was it was getting ripe in the studio. 460 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: I'm not saying I need I need to shower every 461 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 1: morning if I want to be like fully awake. Yeah, yeah, 462 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 1: I feel I get like that whenever I felt bad 463 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,239 Speaker 1: about sleeping in it's because it's so late. I'm like, 464 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: oh man, I only have like a few hours of 465 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 1: like a day left before like I'm about to shift 466 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: my whole sleep cycle into the night, where I'm like, well, see, 467 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: I think that's what it is because when I wake 468 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: up super late, I'm aware that I needed sleep, and 469 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: the way, the like better way to get it would 470 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: have been to go to bed early instead of staying 471 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 1: up till two watching vander Pump self care. No matter 472 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 1: how you got it's good. I'm not. I'm not knocking it, 473 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: and in no way do I want to do I 474 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: want to give it up. I'm just saying I have 475 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: found that it's like a little overrated for me personally, 476 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: but I don't. I can't give it up. I would. 477 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: I just pray for the ability to sleep like I 478 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: did when I was like in puberty or like going 479 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: through puberty or high school, like when my body was 480 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,479 Speaker 1: like this is when you're growing and you will just 481 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 1: lie dormant and like I never to this day, even 482 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: like with a terrible hangover something, have slept like as 483 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: solidly for such a long time than I did back then. 484 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: Uh you know, so do you not sleep well now? Not? 485 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: I sleep well now, but like even I wake up 486 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: pretty normally, like my rhythms are like I'm up even 487 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: if I sleep late, like I'm just up and I 488 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: can't do the thing where I'm like, well, I want 489 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: to sleep later, I'm really tired. Maybe I get a 490 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: couple of hours. Just can't. It's just that adult ship, 491 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: adult body. I hear that. Well, speaking of adult ship, 492 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: let's let's get back to poop. So, my theory on 493 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 1: the spherical poop as I've been thinking about it, skittish. 494 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,719 Speaker 1: All the animals that has spherical poop are skittish, like 495 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: you got your DearS, your rabbits, your squirrels. So I 496 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: think it really there is something to that poop scientists 497 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: get at me. You are courage shapes like a fist 498 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: or sword. Well, like humans, there's no design to it 499 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: because we're not scary. Same with dogs right there, they're 500 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: at home girl who used to do rabbit poops? I 501 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 1: mean we've all been. I've been a home girl who's 502 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: done rabbits. Yeah, I've I've been that home girl as well. 503 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: But it's not but it's not like biologically decreed that 504 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: we do that where now right? Sure? Log it up, 505 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: Kenny Loggins's interesting to any what other animals have such 506 00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 1: wide range of poop shapes? Yeah, I think it's dogs 507 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: us and dogs have evolved to be part of our 508 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: like kind of little ecosystems. So I need to see 509 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: some coyotes ship there. Actually they're copying our style, our ships. 510 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: Bear shit, dog, I'm like, go get your own swag, bro. 511 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: I feel like bear shit is similarly amorphous. So it's 512 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: it's like the stuff that needs to be scared needs 513 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 1: to keep it in tight little spheres so that like 514 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: the there's little surface area, so the scent isn't going 515 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: out there so that they can be tracked, is my 516 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: my theory. Alright, other poops don't know. Let's talk about that. 517 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: Let's talk about these Trump apointees who came out towards 518 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: the end of last week and just you know, said 519 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: that basically it had been a complete utter fucking up 520 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: of the COVID response while they were working in the 521 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: c d C. They specifically said that they were being 522 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 1: encouraged by members of the Trump administration to pursue herd immunity, 523 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: which is basically like let everybody get it except the 524 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: people who it is actively killing, and was completely inadvisable 525 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: and just a confusing of the approach that has left 526 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: us in the condition we're in where the US and 527 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: Brazil are far and away the most fucked up examples 528 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: of how how this can be exacerbated right now. And 529 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: I read that in l A one and twenty residents 530 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 1: are positive, right, I think it's one in eighty confirmed 531 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: in one in twenties, like probably just haven't been tested. 532 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: And this is sorry, this is like a tangent. We'll 533 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: go back to that story you're talking about. But I 534 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 1: remember at the very beginning New York. It was like 535 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: terrible in New York, and everyone was kind of applauding California. 536 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: And the theory was, well, in California, you know, in 537 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: New York, everyone on top of each other, so they 538 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: can't socially distance, whereas like in California, we're really doing 539 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: it right, We're spread out up. But now l is 540 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: the epicenter. What happened? I guess we opened too we 541 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: opened too fast. Is that why it's so bad here? Yeah, 542 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 1: it's a combination. And I think, yeah, the time of 543 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: being in the pandemic, like people are getting just sick 544 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: of it at like more of like the emotional toll 545 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: of like trying to lock down and be responsible, Like 546 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: people are reaching that breaking point while the infection rates 547 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: are going up. And I think they're meeting at an 548 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: awful time. And on top of it. Yeah, like we're 549 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: just we're not doing what we should be doing in 550 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: anything sense. And apparently things apparently these numbers right now 551 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: are not even reflecting Thanksgiving yet. So it's going to 552 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: get worse, be way worse before I get it's around now, 553 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: it's going to hit you. My um, my favorite aspect 554 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: of the all the revelations in the c d C 555 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: was there was an advisor to the hh S who 556 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: tried to get the c d C to downplay something 557 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: in their Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, which is like 558 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: this really important report that they put put out, so 559 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: they were trying to like sense or something. And in 560 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: the email, the guy was explaining this and it was 561 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: a longer quote, but he said something like I'll just 562 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: focus on my favorite part. He spelled President President Net 563 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 1: President President. Oh no, I see what is this is 564 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: designed to hurt this President net for their reasons which 565 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: I am not interested in, um, which it just it 566 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: just feels like a trolling Twitter response. The only people 567 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: who are in favor of the herd immunity theory were 568 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: people who are trying to open the economy, which was 569 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: the Trumble administration, because their theory of the case was 570 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: this is all an attempt to hurt the economy so 571 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 1: that he loses because the entire universe revolves around them. 572 00:33:55,560 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: And I think just similarly, I've heard this overall sort 573 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: of model of the globe as like starting in Japan 574 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: and moving westward, you go from a more like collectivist 575 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: view of the world just in terms of like traditional 576 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: like values to and then like ending in Los Angeles 577 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: is like the most individualistic like view of the world. Uh. 578 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 1: And I feel like that probably plays into some of 579 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: why the US is so bad and also why l 580 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: A is now the epicenter. Is like, even after we 581 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:41,439 Speaker 1: now know like what's so bad about like or how 582 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: the virus operates, we're still willing to you know, it's 583 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: more about us as Angelinos, as Californians than it is 584 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 1: about like the reality. It's more, you know, I think 585 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: I think Californians tend to be more up their own 586 00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: ass than probably uh, the rest of the world. Yeah, 587 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,320 Speaker 1: the people that move here. Honestly, I think that's the problem. 588 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 1: You know, people here though, you know, I think we're 589 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: the salt, We're the real We're the real Americans who 590 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: get it. It's all the other people, well, but it's 591 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 1: more than any place I've ever lived, like composed of 592 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: people who are like, yes, that is my shunkri law. 593 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: That is where I will go to actualize myself the 594 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 1: torment of my high school. And I will make it 595 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,320 Speaker 1: there and prove to them I am not that person. 596 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: What about us who lived here? And also it sucked, 597 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 1: but we're still here. But yeah, I think with also 598 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 1: the like you're saying, especially l A, like New York, 599 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 1: You're like you're saying, you're on top of each other. 600 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: There's a sense of your community, whether you like it 601 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 1: or not. In New York, like l A, you're in 602 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,280 Speaker 1: your car, You're just you're fucking closed the funk off. 603 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: And I think it's really easy. The weather too, plays 604 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,400 Speaker 1: a huge part where it's almost like, well the weather 605 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: is nice, how could like there's all these things that 606 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: I think act on people's subconsciousness that just are force 607 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: multipliers for how bad we're screwing. The is up and 608 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: on top of it, like the communication is absolute dogshit, 609 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 1: whether it's coming from the county or the state. It's 610 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 1: like half the time I'm having I'm seeking it out 611 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 1: through news articles more than like it passively coming to 612 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: me because they're trying to inform the residents of what's happening. Yeah, 613 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: how do you guys feel about businesses that are defying 614 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: the stay at home order or the shutdown order? And 615 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: like still, um, you know, like there's a restaurant. I'm 616 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: in Burbank and there's a guy in Burbank who's making 617 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: news right now because he refuses to shut down his 618 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 1: restaurant because he and my My visceral response is fuck you, 619 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: you are selfish and near endangeram people. But then it's like, 620 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 1: you know, his argument is like, look, this is you know, 621 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 1: my whole life has been about building this business. It's 622 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,880 Speaker 1: all I have, and I've got a hundred percent bills 623 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 1: and I'm making you know, ten percent if I just 624 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 1: do to go orders, I'm making ten percent profit. Not profit. 625 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: I'm like making earning ten percent of what I normally 626 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 1: make in d dada, And like he's and lose this 627 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:04,240 Speaker 1: business and lose everything. I have compassion, but I still 628 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,919 Speaker 1: feel like it doesn't it doesn't make it okay to 629 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: endanger people. At the same time, like, obviously I feel 630 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 1: the government should pay people to stay home. That's the answer, right, 631 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 1: That's that's that's exactly what it is. Like it's so 632 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,439 Speaker 1: easy to understand that impulse of someone who's like, well, 633 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,359 Speaker 1: my b how the so you want me to just die, 634 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,760 Speaker 1: lay down and die basically as a business with no help, 635 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: like I can't do that. Yeah. My one issue is 636 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: that usually the people who are like fuck the government, 637 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,439 Speaker 1: stay home order are also are They're rarely the type 638 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 1: of people who are like, pay me to stay home. 639 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: They're more the people who are like, you can't tell 640 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: me what to do. I'm this is America, um, And 641 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 1: that I think is a fundamental misunderstanding of the problem. 642 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, the conversation needs to shift from we 643 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 1: need to be able to make money to it should 644 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,800 Speaker 1: be the government needs to be paying us, the government 645 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: needs to be sorting out my bills. Not but everyone's 646 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: so fucking odeed on the bootstrap ship that even in 647 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,919 Speaker 1: this situation, it's like I gotta do this, and yes, 648 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 1: like you're saying, endanger other people their own employees in 649 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: the midst of all of this, when you think like, oh, 650 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 1: y'all are so close to the to the socialism part 651 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 1: of it, to like understanding like what's fair, what's equitable, 652 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:24,840 Speaker 1: what is actually necessary and can acknowledge like, yeah, that's true. 653 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,360 Speaker 1: Don't worry though that you can't work because the government 654 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 1: is here to take people from people who you know, 655 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,399 Speaker 1: tax them, and the money is there to subsidize things. 656 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: And Jesus, when you look at the countries that are 657 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 1: like have been subsidizing lost wages for people, it's it's 658 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 1: so fucked up to look at like how other countries 659 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 1: are handling and here it's purely like I don't know, 660 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: just burn up, burn up upon reentry. That's sort of 661 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 1: the strategy. I know that we like people understand that, 662 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 1: like we the number of cases that we've had in 663 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: this country is so much more than other countries. But 664 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 1: just like in doing that opening that I've been doing 665 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: for the past week of just the number of cases, 666 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: number of deaths compared to other countries, and then like 667 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: I added the context of like doing research into like 668 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 1: the portion of like how much smaller we are than 669 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 1: China and India and like how we're so comparable to 670 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: other countries. It's just like anybody who is not viewing 671 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 1: this as a stress test of like, Okay, this version 672 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 1: of running a country is not working. Like that you 673 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 1: have to be burying your head in the ground. Like 674 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: these values do not function. Not values, I mean they are, 675 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,760 Speaker 1: they're just in a completely wrong direction. I was thinking 676 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 1: about that today and this is um it's a really 677 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: like it sounds snobby and elitist maybe, but it's like 678 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:53,399 Speaker 1: this country is so fucking stupid. Yes, yeah, well we're 679 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,400 Speaker 1: just so corrupted or I mean, you know, collectively, the 680 00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 1: culture is just corrupted by greed and consumption, and that's 681 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 1: those are like the gods of this country. It's also 682 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: science and paranoia, and and I think a lot of 683 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: those are born out of like this singular focus to 684 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,240 Speaker 1: just create value, you know, create as much shareholder value, 685 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: to accumulate as much bullshit as possible. So if anything 686 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: runs counter to that and it's an obstacle, then yeah, 687 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: fox science. If if science is getting in the way 688 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 1: of making money, then from science, If science the poor 689 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 1: people are getting in the way of making money, than 690 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 1: fun poor people. Like It's it's a very simple equation 691 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 1: you just have to put like, is it in the 692 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,280 Speaker 1: way of making money, then chances are that thing gets 693 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,720 Speaker 1: fucked and completely demolished in the pursuit of making money, 694 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: and that I I don't know, like you think we've 695 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 1: experienced enough pain collectively as a nation to begin to 696 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 1: have a reckoning with that. But I think it's just 697 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 1: so it's fundamentally the foundation that the entire country is 698 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 1: built upon. It's it's like being like our colors red, white, 699 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 1: and blue, and you're like, what do you mean? Right? 700 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: You have like individual people defending their own right to 701 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: be exploited, like it is my American god given right 702 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 1: to be completely exploited by this system. And it's like, 703 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,359 Speaker 1: I don't know how you break through to someone who 704 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 1: feels that way? Yeah, yeah, how do you break through 705 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 1: to the guy who has like Trump tattoos on his 706 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: arm and is saying like, with his dying breaths, dying 707 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 1: from COVID is like Trump, you know, even even as 708 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: he was like he started out being like plandemic, this 709 00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,319 Speaker 1: is all made up, is dying of COVID and is 710 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 1: still with his dying breath being like trumpy Like that's 711 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 1: and there were more like many people like that. Let's 712 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,320 Speaker 1: talk Dan crunch are real quick, just because I feel 713 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: like a lot of the news cycle about him has 714 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 1: gotten overtaken with his SNL ship, his uh, you know, 715 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 1: embarrassing avengers, false valor. He's like trying to pass himself 716 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:01,839 Speaker 1: off as an avenger um. But the reality of who 717 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 1: this dude is uh recently came up as um. Basically, 718 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 1: there was a v A investigation a veteran alleged that 719 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: she was sexually assaulted at a v A facility, and 720 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: the v A secretary, Robert Wilkie, was just straightaway trying 721 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 1: to smear her, and Crenshaw like was with him on 722 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:28,279 Speaker 1: that and like basically approached him and said that he 723 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 1: knew of her from serving together, and that she was 724 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 1: known for making up allegations. Uh, which to put that 725 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 1: in perspective read any account of what it's like to 726 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: be a woman in the modern military, it makes like 727 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 1: the workplace from Madmen seemed like wildly progressive like that 728 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: to this day it is wild like the ship that 729 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 1: they are still getting away with and letting themselves and 730 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 1: just the standards they hold themselves to. And this asshole 731 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,439 Speaker 1: is like part of part of that problem. And he's 732 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 1: he's the guy who's you know, out here using the 733 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 1: fact that he was a veteran to pig up himself. 734 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 1: And meanwhile he's smearing actual veterans who have actual problems 735 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: and are trying to fix fixed systemic issues with the military. 736 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 1: Um right, So just a real piece of ship through 737 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,760 Speaker 1: and through and being honest enough to want to create 738 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,439 Speaker 1: change for people after them to not to prevent these 739 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 1: things from happening. And then Dan Crenshaw is just like 740 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 1: noth like, that's what you're using your time for, is 741 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,280 Speaker 1: just to just smear someone who's trying to do good 742 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: because you're playing on whatever side of this argument. Yeah, 743 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:45,640 Speaker 1: and and and they were saying it's going to make 744 00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 1: it worse for more women who want to come forward 745 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,879 Speaker 1: seeing how this was handled and seeing how there will 746 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 1: you know, they've shut down, there won't be an investigation 747 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:58,279 Speaker 1: or they've shut it down. Um. She claimed that the 748 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:02,839 Speaker 1: guy rammed his lower body into hers and said, you 749 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 1: look like you could use a good time. Isn't that 750 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: so gross? Yeah? I mean yeah, that documentary, I don't know, 751 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: have you seen the Invisible War that was? Um? If 752 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,759 Speaker 1: I saw, I think I saw it on HBO. It's 753 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:20,000 Speaker 1: like a Kirby Dick documentary just talking about you know, 754 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 1: the culture, you know, rape culture, and the how prevalent 755 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:29,080 Speaker 1: assaults and things are in the in the military, and 756 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:33,240 Speaker 1: it's really it's shocking because, yeah, for it's a problem 757 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 1: that's so out in the open and known, but then 758 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 1: there's also this culture of fear around being able to 759 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 1: speak up about it and to just to be on 760 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,359 Speaker 1: the side of like perpetuating or protect that, you know, 761 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: the the ongoing culture of assault in the in the 762 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,680 Speaker 1: military just sucked up and yeah, yeah, and just shouldn't 763 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 1: expected from someone like Dan Crenshaw who's just shown himself 764 00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,560 Speaker 1: to have no character at all, aside from wanting to 765 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 1: play a literal fucking Marvel character. Right, Yeah, watched The 766 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 1: Invisible War instead of a Marvel movie. All right, let's 767 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: take a quick break and we'll be right back, and 768 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:24,319 Speaker 1: we're back. Let's talk about Mission Impossible. We we've been 769 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:29,759 Speaker 1: tracking Tom cruise Is flipouts on the on the trending 770 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:34,719 Speaker 1: episodes past at the end of last week. But apparently, yeah, 771 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:39,800 Speaker 1: he's been just whiling. I believe it's called uh in 772 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:45,799 Speaker 1: academic circles. And so they apparently they have shut down 773 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 1: production on the Mission Impossible movie. And it's not because 774 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 1: of any COVID like misbehavior. It is because he would 775 00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,360 Speaker 1: I guess he got a cent he he saw himself 776 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 1: in the mirror of these rants. Someone's like, oh, maybe 777 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:08,840 Speaker 1: maybe all Tommy needs a break. Yeah, he's apparently. Uh 778 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 1: Friday was like the last day of shooting, and he 779 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 1: was I guess the planets for him to go to 780 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 1: Miami to be with his DJ extraordinary son Connor, to 781 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 1: fucking you know, hang out for the holidays or something. 782 00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 1: But it's just very they're not saying it's obviously obviously 783 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 1: not from anything to with COVID, but there's no real 784 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,880 Speaker 1: explanation why he's doing that. But I think a lot 785 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 1: of people like, yeah, maybe he uh he saw a 786 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,799 Speaker 1: look a little bit of cringe from that leaked grant. Uh. 787 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 1: The other thing that's really interesting is on TMZ there 788 00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,400 Speaker 1: because they're just the messiest over there. They were pointing 789 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 1: out that the mask that Tom Cruise is always being 790 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 1: pictured in on this set, there's the one that the 791 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 1: CDs CDC is like, Yo, don't fucking wear those valved masks. 792 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 1: Those are actually worse because like they're designed to release 793 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:02,840 Speaker 1: a bunch of are as you exhale very quickly, so 794 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 1: many things. Yeah, you're just jet shooting out your droplets 795 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: off out the sides of that thing. And they're like, yeah, 796 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: this is a quote. This type of mask may not 797 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 1: prevent you from spreading COVID nineteen to others. The hole 798 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 1: in the material may allow your respiratory droplets to escape 799 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 1: and reach others. Yeah, it's more for people like fighting 800 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:26,440 Speaker 1: forest fires, uh, and you know, preventing them from inhaling 801 00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 1: dangerous things. But it has no benefit if you're trying 802 00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:34,720 Speaker 1: to prevent the spread of disease because everything that you're 803 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,880 Speaker 1: exhaling is getting out there. But it does protect you, 804 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 1: like Allison said, So that's what I think. It's a 805 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 1: very appropriate mask given the circumstances.

So cool. I saw 810 00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,200 Speaker 1: a lot of debate about his rant, Like, I saw 811 00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:03,399 Speaker 1: a lot of people defending it and relating to it 812 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:07,759 Speaker 1: because they also have been very frustrated in their workplaces 813 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,680 Speaker 1: with people not doing what they're supposed to protocol wise. 814 00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:14,839 Speaker 1: But then I saw people saying that well, just first 815 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 1: of all, coming after Tom Cruise, because he's like the 816 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 1: face of scientology, which is a pretty um, you know, 817 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 1: problematic and corrupt organization and criminal. But then also saying 818 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,560 Speaker 1: that he was and this is kind of my emotional 819 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,880 Speaker 1: reaction to his rant, was like, you are taking it 820 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:38,920 Speaker 1: too far, and you're just excoriating an employee and kind 821 00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,879 Speaker 1: of emotionally abusing them. Yeah, taking out on the corporations 822 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,799 Speaker 1: that are putting you in that position, not the like 823 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,560 Speaker 1: small time workers work for you, Like, that's not on them. 824 00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 1: That is a systemic issue. And the fact that you 825 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:58,000 Speaker 1: are this hyped up and stressed out and from talking 826 00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 1: to the insurance companies and the studios means that you 827 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:05,279 Speaker 1: should have a different relationship to those insurance companies in 828 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 1: those studios because you are externalizing you're you're externalizing they're inherent, 829 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,799 Speaker 1: Like treat everybody like ponds that we're moving around to 830 00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:19,400 Speaker 1: create value kind of worldview and treating treating them like 831 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:22,200 Speaker 1: they're inhuman like that. There's never an excuse to talk 832 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,200 Speaker 1: to people like that. But also he's a couch jumper, 833 00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 1: so I feel like he's got this potential to be 834 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:32,319 Speaker 1: sort of manic like this. Anyway, Oh, for sure, he's Yeah, 835 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 1: it's it's we're just we're all we're like we get like, 836 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 1: we like where he's coming from in that, like we yes, 837 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 1: people need to act out of what's in the best 838 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:47,880 Speaker 1: interests for others given the situation. But yeah, in this context, 839 00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:50,200 Speaker 1: it's like, let's be real, so many of these things 840 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:54,320 Speaker 1: that they're saying are essential are not essential. And it's tough. 841 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 1: Like when you know, you have people like I have 842 00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:00,160 Speaker 1: family who works in production. They're going to CRUI in 843 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: the new COVID age where there's like the zones and 844 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,800 Speaker 1: the testing and things like that, but that's all because 845 00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 1: the studios can't shut off the spigot of like the 846 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 1: of the revenue flowing and all of it sort of 847 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 1: like leads to like what we couldn't we could just 848 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 1: handle this like an actual pandemic, and we have to say, 849 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 1: I know, we're used to the slog and the grind 850 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:26,320 Speaker 1: of like this economy that we're in, but we actually 851 00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:28,200 Speaker 1: have to stop it and we have to start re 852 00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 1: funneling funds in the right directions to a keep you know, 853 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 1: keep everyone safe. But that's the thing we're just not 854 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 1: able to get fundamentally, Like it's just like, well, but 855 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 1: if some people are like really good about it? Can 856 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 1: they go and still make money for people? And like, 857 00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 1: you know, there's reports on how some hospitals are, like 858 00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 1: there's a hospital in California that's being used as a 859 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:51,080 Speaker 1: as a set when it can be when it can 860 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:55,160 Speaker 1: actually be used as a fucking hospital.

Um, and John McTiernan came out, 872 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 1: the director and basically just validated everything Jam was talking about, 873 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:48,480 Speaker 1: like word for word, uh, in a in a pretty 874 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 1: cool way. So basically he said that he when it 875 00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:56,360 Speaker 1: came to him, the script was the terrorists were leftist terrorists, 876 00:51:56,680 --> 00:52:00,120 Speaker 1: and like John McClain was just you know, authority. He 877 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,640 Speaker 1: represented authority and was like a by the book's cop 878 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 1: or like a cop who got became a bug in 879 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 1: the ointment because he happened to be there, and he 880 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 1: changed it so that they were, you know, thieves who 881 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 1: were motivated by capitalism. Uh. They were robbing people who 882 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:22,800 Speaker 1: like all the authority figures are who work at the company. 883 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 1: Are these like corporate empty suits who are like useless 884 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:31,839 Speaker 1: the the head of the company, yeah, ellis, but even 885 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:36,320 Speaker 1: the head of the company, uh dies rather than giving 886 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 1: up a password like two that would allow his company 887 00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 1: to be like robbed. I've always been I've always been 888 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 1: like what is he doing? And the point that you're 889 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 1: supposed to be like that he's dying for a ridiculous cause, 890 00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 1: which is like this runaway what McTiernan calls unregulated cowboy capitalism. 891 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 1: And he said he was actually like he had been 892 00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:02,680 Speaker 1: sent the script uh like seven times and kept telling 893 00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,799 Speaker 1: Jill Sliver no, And then he was watching It's a 894 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:10,359 Speaker 1: Wonderful Life, specifically the Potterville scene, which he says is 895 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 1: the clearest demonstration of and criticism of runaway, unregulated cowboy 896 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:19,960 Speaker 1: capitalism and movies um, and that's what inspired him. He 897 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:23,319 Speaker 1: also talks about how these paintings in the Louver were 898 00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 1: like how he was thinking about it, how like they 899 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 1: would these artists would paint like these nobles or like 900 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:34,360 Speaker 1: these monarchs, and you would actually see like some small 901 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:38,280 Speaker 1: detail that they actually put all their artistry into, because 902 00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 1: like that was where they could just get their release 903 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,800 Speaker 1: and like do the thing they wanted to, because the 904 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 1: king would have very specific ideas about how they wanted 905 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 1: to be portrayed.
