Oh, I mean, like we'd come 342 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: off the court. My partner stairs actually really good and cheese, 343 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: Like just I knew she'ld be good because she played 344 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:53,919 Speaker 1: tennis in high school.

You know, we could get our We could 350 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: get our butts kicked tomorrow by two eight year olds 351 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: because of like the strategy. It's so fun. Everyone should 352 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 1: try it. It's really light and fun and it's awesome. Um, 353 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: what's something you think is underrated? This sounds ridiculous. Well 354 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm a ridiculous person, but I'm gonna say earphones, earbuds, 355 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: ear phones, headsets, whatever the terms you use, are underrated. 356 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: And it sounds weird because like, here's why they're underrated. 357 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: When people don't have them in I want to murder this, 358 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 1: literally murder them. So now I I And this started 359 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: in Florida.

But 367 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: it makes me feel like could I murder ball my 368 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: fist uf eyeballs? Yeah?

I mean, because clearly we're all sound respecters, 370 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: because we I think we all had the same reaction 371 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: to being like oker, um, what do you think it is? 372 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 1: Because I feel like some people I see like want 373 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: to be like, yeah, man, I'm on a phone call 374 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: right now, so you're gonna hear that because I'm talking 375 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: to people, Like it feels like that's all it's accomplishing, 376 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: Like that's the only It's not like you don't seem 377 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: hard of hearing or something like that. Like it's more 378 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: like you seem like you want a broadcast that you're 379 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 1: on a phone call or or is it that let 380 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 1: us know, listeners, because look, this is where maybe we 381 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: need to bring the world together. Are you guys doing 382 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 1: it because you just aren't aware that other people might 383 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: be like this fucking infernal rack it off when they're 384 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: like I just like it's easier than putting it to 385 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: my head. I don't know, but I don't like it. 386 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: I just yeah, I mean again, this maybe this is 387 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 1: me getting older and like get off my lawn.

And it's like this is what 391 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,479 Speaker 1: what we need more than ever, is like empathy and 392 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: self and just just just being respectful to the person 393 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: right next to you. And when there's no earboods on, 394 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: I just I don't, like I start to like real real, 395 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: get real twitchy. And because I don't get a terrible sound, 396 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: like there's no amount, Like it's a phone at the time, 397 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: and so the sounds coming out is trash and half 398 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,719 Speaker 1: that I did not want to hear it, Like as 399 00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,040 Speaker 1: a as a public transportation writer, there's nothing where and 400 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 1: somebody who's like, let me blast my terrible jams out 401 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 1: my phone speaker. We're in a bubble. You cannot escape. 402 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 1: He absolutely hell if you listen. If you can't afford headphones, 403 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: you just have to deal it. Like and I've been there, Okay, 404 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: I think somebody who's been there. You just gotta go 405 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: without tunes for the fifteen two hours and twenty minutes 406 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: you have to be on public transit. Why don't we 407 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 1: talk to our legislators and make free earbuds available to people, 408 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: so there's no excuse anymore. It's like a mass you 409 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: know what I mean. You look, we know you know 410 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 1: there's free air buds at the front of the train. 411 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 1: You had them right there. Don't fucking blast because I 412 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 1: also don't want to hear anymore of it right now. 413 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry to talk over. I just meant like, 414 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: if you have a phone, I feel like you can 415 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 1: get some cheap air phones, you know what I mean, 416 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: Like one doesn't There's sixty nine at Walgreens. They're great headphones, 417 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: but they are better. You know this hair I got 418 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: literally ten years ago. It fits into my computer. They're like, 419 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: they're like, you know what I mean, It's like, just 420 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: come on. The worst that is when somebody's playing tunes 421 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: and then they play when you like and you're like, 422 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: oh sh it, okay, you know what, I'm not too 423 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: bad this and then all your your values go out 424 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: the window. Kind of needed to hear that. I'm sorry, Hey, 425 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: does anybody have another speaker you can link to that 426 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: because we used to get this going, but it is 427 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: what it is. All right, Let's pay some bills, we'll 428 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 1: be right back and we'll talk climate after this and 429 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: we're back so deep breath the climate it's changing. I 430 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: think that's very clear to anyone, because you know, we're 431 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: just using our dumb people regular eyes to go, yeah, 432 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: something's not right. Things seem to be getting worse. On Monday, 433 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: we saw the release of the report from the United 434 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: Nations Inter Government Whole Panel on Climate Change, the i 435 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: p c C, So you'll probably be seeing i p 436 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: c C trending a lot everywhere, and they put together 437 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: obviously one of the most comprehensive studies on the issue. 438 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: But again, I don't know if that distinction is really 439 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: that necessary because most of us like, yeah, yeah, yeah, 440 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: I know, we know what the funk are we gonna 441 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: do about it? Though, thank you, thank you so much 442 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 1: for the thousands of pages of research as we've done, 443 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: that you've done, but we also many of us are 444 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,919 Speaker 1: very concerned. The U n chief called this a quote 445 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: code read for humanity, which I think can be can't 446 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 1: be understated enough, And I wish when he said a 447 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 1: code read for humanity, I wish this was some promo 448 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: about a new mountain dew flavor that was coming out, 449 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: But it's not. It's about that we are in such 450 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 1: a bad situation. We need to be thinking. Existential sirens 451 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: need to be going off in everyone's minds. And I 452 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: know many people have been thinking about this, but this 453 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: is another moment where I think there's a The release 454 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,479 Speaker 1: of this is timed to happen right before there's a 455 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: huge like international summit on climate happening in glass Ago. 456 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: So many leaders have to get together and be like, Okay, 457 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: we don't have any more excuses, although I'm sure they'll 458 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: come up with some, but yeah, I just there's a 459 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: few things in this that just like sort of the 460 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,919 Speaker 1: main points. The biggest one is that people, not that 461 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 1: you and I, but human activity. Is this the sole 462 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 1: reason why the climate is changing. There's no other explanation 463 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 1: except for the activity of human beings and the industries 464 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: that are just massive polluters. So step, let's nail that on. Okay, 465 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 1: with that, we can, I think most of us have 466 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: accepted that. They just say that, essentially, quote society's reliance 467 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: on fossil fuels is the reason the planet has already 468 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: warmed to one point to degree celsius. Remember that to 469 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: degree celsius school that we were trying to avoid right now, 470 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: The projections are saying we're gonna get to one point 471 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 1: five possibly within the next two decades. Even if we do, 472 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: if we radically change things. So to avoid two degrees, 473 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: we have to absolutely get this thing under control. The 474 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: next point, which is cutting emissions to zero, is the 475 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: only way we're going to stop this. We have to 476 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: think of a future where we are not like actively 477 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:17,880 Speaker 1: emitting carbon dioxide, methane, these other gas greenhouse gases. So 478 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: that's if we have to do that before hopefully, because 479 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 1: if not, we could reach a three degree change by 480 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 1: the end of the century and that would be absolutely, 481 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: you know, again, catastrophic. Another thing that was from the 482 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: airport methane is that record levels um It's showing that 483 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: methane the atmosphere is skyrocketing and it's currently the highest 484 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,919 Speaker 1: it's been in eight hundred thousand years, largely because the 485 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: combination of natural gas leaks and unsustainable agriculture and cattle farming. 486 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: So this is another thing to put on our minds. 487 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: I know many people, we've talked about this a lot, 488 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: and most people have heard that shifting away from sort 489 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: of meat, especially red meat, and towards like plant based 490 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: diets will help a lot or and also just finding 491 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: a way to sustainably raise cattle is another huge thing, 492 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,479 Speaker 1: Like there are restorative ways to raise these animals, but 493 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 1: that needs to become the norm if we're going to 494 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: sort of begin to even pick picture how we navigate 495 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: this without sort of major changes to you know, culturally, 496 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: the way that we eat and things like that, extreme 497 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 1: weather will persist. That is just the one thing they said, 498 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,679 Speaker 1: we have passed P A, S. S E. D. The 499 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: point where we can actually do anything to reverse what 500 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 1: we're seeing. Now. The only things we can do are 501 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: to mitigate just how frequently we're gonna, you know, experience 502 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: these things. So again, I'm gonna be talking for a 503 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 1: lot and I hate to bring people down, but this 504 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 1: is this is what I just want to make sure 505 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: is crystal clear before we start joking for our own 506 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: to sue our own wounds at two Just so so 507 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: for an example, with heat waves at two degrees warming, 508 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,479 Speaker 1: if we get to that too degrees celsius change, this 509 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: frequency increases to fourteen times as likely to occur. So 510 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: what we saw in the Pacific northwestern Canada that took 511 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 1: all those people lives, that will become fourteen times as 512 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: likely to occur. Heat waves are just going to get hotter. 513 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: And again with two degrees of warming, the hottest temperatures 514 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: could go around five degrees fahrenheit higher than even previous 515 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 1: heat waves were. So do you think you thought one 516 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: twenty was bad? How about you thought one fifteen was bad? 517 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 1: How about these are these are the things we were 518 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 1: talking about. Droughts. If forming continues to the two degree 519 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 1: one point, these droughts will occur, like we're seeing in 520 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: the Western United States, between two and three times as often, 521 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: rather than something that would happen, you know over maybe 522 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: once every couple of decades or once a decade have 523 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: a drought like that flooding. Again, it's gonna intensify because 524 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: the water cycle on both sides, which means more intensive 525 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: operation will eat to more drought. But because the air 526 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: is hotter, it can hold more water vapor to produce 527 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: just extreme rainfall. We saw the floods in Germany and 528 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: Western Europe. We saw what happened in China. Many people 529 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: lost their lives because suddenly we had these just catastrophic 530 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: down boards. And again those are increasing about in terms 531 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: of their frequency. Hurricanes are also going to grow stronger. 532 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 1: We already know that we're seeing that sea level rise 533 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: is rising around the world and the rate is increasing. 534 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,719 Speaker 1: The worstening high tide and flooding and storm surges are 535 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: going to continue. By twenty one, once in a century, 536 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: coastal flood events will occur at least once a year. 537 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: Oh okay, at least once a year. And then other 538 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,479 Speaker 1: things like weather whiplash. Let's just throw that one on 539 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: there for just if you needed another thing to be 540 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: worried about. This is when we go from super hot 541 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: and then suddenly as super hot and dry to just 542 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: suddenly very wet. This is kind of like you saw 543 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: this in California. Are these things all atmospheric rivers that 544 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: we're causing these like really bad floods. So all again, 545 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: take a deep breath, y'all. There's we're really truly past 546 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: this point where I remember as a kid in like 547 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: the nineties and it was like we gotta do save 548 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: the planet. I was always like, man, I get it, 549 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: we got time. Well, yeah, we really got to do something. 550 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: That ship even fucking four years ago, I was like, 551 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 1: we got time because it felt like that was the 552 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: tone of our leadership, and I think for me personally, 553 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: and I think most human beings, you you have to 554 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: compartmentalize on some level because you don't want to acknowledge 555 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: how dire the situation is on the planet and you 556 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: don't want to think we have it's overwhelming to think 557 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: we have to cut all the emissions to zero eventually 558 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: to even navigate this thing. Well, it is overwhelming, and 559 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: also it isn't it's mostly frustrating, right because we know 560 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: that on an individual level, you could be the most 561 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 1: like sustainable human being on the plant, right, and you're 562 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: not going to make a dent in the problem. And 563 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: we understand fully at we have to charge corporations on 564 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: the whole to make these overall changes, from the meat 565 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 1: industry to every industry that eaches any kind of plastic 566 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: like it's it's like our federal government has the power 567 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: to be like, yeah, you can't sell this ship here anymore. 568 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 1: It's literally destroying our planet, and they just don't. We 569 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: understand for a fact that the cold oil companies were like, uh, yeah, 570 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: we know you could have had an etric car in 571 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: the nineties, but we don't like that ship, so we 572 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: cut that out real fast. We understand the electric cars 573 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: are not even to the full extent of like bringing 574 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: us down to your emissions because their factories create a 575 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 1: ton of emissions. Like, it is such a large scale 576 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: problem that could, I don't say easily be solved, but 577 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: there's so many things we could easily do to make 578 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 1: larger dns in this. And what's most frustrating is that 579 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: scientists are now have this like giant force of people 580 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: just being like, we're just choosing not to believe anything 581 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: you say. We just choose of our own volition to 582 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: ignore like sound science. So I at this point, I 583 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: don't know, like it scares me because I believe in science, 584 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: but there's so many people who are like, the earth 585 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: just changes, this is God, what can we do? It's 586 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 1: so like, you know, people die whatever. I just at 587 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: this point, I'm caught between like really pressuring politicians who 588 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: make active legal change this so that at least, you know, 589 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: our country, who we're a huge part of the problem, 590 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: can start making a drastic change, and throwing my hands 591 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 1: up and being like, well I had a pretty good life. 592 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: I'm not going to bring children in this world. And 593 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: and maybe that's a blessing. Maybe maybe it's well I'll 594 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: die as the fires can right before they consume me 595 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: and be like and get those additions into my body 596 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: behind Absolutely yeah, it's it's it's understandable. I mean it's 597 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: so overwhelming, it's it almost is like my first thought 598 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: is like I just go into absolute panic, you know, 599 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: like you just go into absolute panic. And then you're like, Okay, 600 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 1: how do you chunk it down? How do you simplify 601 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 1: something and start with like small steps? But then it 602 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: feels like we're so far past that, and then you know, 603 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 1: you know, I always come back to like, well, this 604 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: isn't going to change because everyone is thinking, well, how 605 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: does climate change affect me making money? Right? It always 606 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: just comes back to well, you know, it's just how 607 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: much money can I lose? How much money can I get? Like, 608 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: it's just money, money, money, money. The only piece of 609 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: mind is like that it's a global problem, you know, 610 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: because if it was just a US problem, we're not 611 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: I just don't believe. And I just don't believe. You 612 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: can't even convince a person to take a vaccine in 613 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: a pandemic. You're gonna have them try to like lower 614 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: the admission, you know what I mean, Like and it's like, oh, 615 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: it's God's will it's blah blah blah. So I don't know. 616 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,719 Speaker 1: I mean, the only trust I have right now is 617 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:06,959 Speaker 1: like if everyone globally like these these summits and stuff, 618 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: maybe yeah I really were I really like, yeah, I'm 619 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: not having kids. I don't believe there's no God, like, 620 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 1: so I feel like, okay, you know, but like then 621 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 1: you just look at like how about all these people 622 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: that have children, Like how about all these kids that 623 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 1: like how about all these parents? Like you're the head 624 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: of a company, You're, you're, you're, you're in charge of 625 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 1: all this garbage going up in the air, Like how 626 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 1: do you not have just a moment of pause, be 627 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 1: like how can I leave the world a better place? 628 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I think because they've had their wealth has 629 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: afforded them the privilege of being insulated from many different 630 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: things that are destabilizing. Well, your grandchild is gonna burn 631 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: in the heat of the sun, Darryl. I am actually 632 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:54,320 Speaker 1: working on a spaceship with some other billionaires another planet. 633 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 1: We were in space while you guys are crying on Earth. Okay. 634 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: Sliver of hope is that we were able to do 635 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 1: something about acid rain in the seventies when it was 636 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: very potentially, Like I mean, we're melting statues and corroding buildings, 637 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 1: and like people were like, this is really awful. We 638 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: have to do something. And then they were like, get 639 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,720 Speaker 1: rid of that. Air's all, like Cathin can't be done. Obviously, 640 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: this is a much larger problem. But I feel like 641 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:22,840 Speaker 1: as a human race, we tend to wait until they 642 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,399 Speaker 1: were like, now, no, we got a few more years. 643 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 1: We can always thank you have more time. Can you 644 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: imagine if we told everyone like be a vegetarian and 645 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: car pool for like five years, if everyone right now 646 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 1: didn't have like just just small things on an individual 647 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: level you could do. Don't buy your fifth car. You 648 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: can I swear on the shop you get a fucking 649 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: gross range rover piece of ship. I'm not I'm just saying, 650 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: like if everyone bought one less car and just car 651 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: just literally, if you just said car pool and eat 652 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: more vegetables. But I you know what I mean, like 653 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: music on the way to work, I need my own car. 654 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 1: I'm just think of what we could do, just what 655 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: we could do if everyone just sacrifice just a little, 656 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,359 Speaker 1: just a little. But I think that's where the tough 657 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: part comes in, right, because we're we're sort of looking 658 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: at a system because unfortunately these issues have to be 659 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: solved legislatively, likes because no one will no one will 660 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 1: give up their eighth car or their triple hamburger. And 661 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 1: you're looking at that and going, well, what I ain't 662 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: gonna work. So now it's like, well, what can we do? 663 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 1: And and that is I think absolutely something that we 664 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: all need to think more consciously about. But the fact 665 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: that we don't even have the kind of you know, 666 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:46,359 Speaker 1: intense pressure coming from government to go after like you know, 667 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 1: just just think of like all these infinite growth economies 668 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 1: that we have where it's all about infinite growth and 669 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: it's never about like yet to a point because then 670 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,799 Speaker 1: once you start growing infinitely, that starts hollowing out a 671 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: bunch of other ship and only you know, contributes more 672 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 1: to the problem. Like it's so easy to just sort 673 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: of be like, well, funk if they're not gonna do anything. 674 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 1: And that's what I think is another thing to point out, 675 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: because you know, the Senate has an infrastructure bill. They 676 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,919 Speaker 1: put it their Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal first that they said, Okay, 677 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,399 Speaker 1: we're close to getting it solved, but that's not even 678 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: coming close to solving any sort of climate issues in 679 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 1: a substantive way. It's more about physics. This bill that 680 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: they're on the verge of passing is more about physical 681 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,760 Speaker 1: infrastructure like roads and like broad band in places they needed, 682 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 1: which are admirable pursuits. And I understand those improvements are necessary. 683 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: But the real hope is gonna lie with like this 684 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 1: other three and a half trillion dollar budget reconciliation bill 685 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: that they're also talking about hopefully passing. But again you 686 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,360 Speaker 1: look at how senators are bristling over the price tag, 687 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: and that puts you again back into place where like, 688 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 1: oh my, are we gonna do because two people like 689 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 1: well it seems like too much money? And it's an 690 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: individual This is a society built on individual success, you know, 691 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:04,320 Speaker 1: individual wealth, Horatio Alger. Just pull yourself up, just put 692 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 1: on food straps. You can do if you you you 693 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like I just I have 694 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: the wind is out of my sails because literally, based 695 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 1: on everything before, but really the pandemic, how you we 696 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: can't even come together in an immediate national and global crisis. 697 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,240 Speaker 1: We can't even come together to wear a fucking mask. 698 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: I'm not even talking about the vaccine so now now 699 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna, oh, you know what you should do to 700 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:36,800 Speaker 1: help the planet? Is that? I mean, imagine telling someone 701 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 1: who's not wearing a mask you're getting vaccine, to be like, 702 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: you can't eat beef? Was just gonna shoot you in 703 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: the face. What happened? Some people say that to Texans 704 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: and like, obviously not all Texans, but there's definitely certain 705 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: Texans were like, hey, have steak every night for dinner. 706 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: Mike Colon deserves to deteriorate. That's right, And I think 707 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: and I get it. You know, everyone is sort of 708 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 1: dealing with this in their own human, fucked up way 709 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: because you again you sort of look at just in general, right, 710 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: we we have all these little culture war battles that 711 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 1: we do that really in a lot of instances, like 712 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 1: we're so focused on a lot of smaller things because 713 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,799 Speaker 1: client it's a distraction from climate change. Like if you 714 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 1: really think about one of the most pressing issues that 715 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 1: we face on this planet as an entire fucking globe, 716 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,800 Speaker 1: right that the Earth could be uninhabitable in certain places, 717 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,520 Speaker 1: it should Number one, how do you what do you 718 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: you want to start a small business where in the 719 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 1: sea of fire, like you know, it's my right to food. 720 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 1: Someone doesn't have a vaccine as a business was like 721 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:49,840 Speaker 1: zoom out of bit, sir, zoom a little bit and expression. 722 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: You know, politicians they're running campaigns based on safety, you know, 723 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,399 Speaker 1: the rule of law, and like, you know, you see 724 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 1: a lot of people complaining, like they're like people are 725 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 1: peeing in the streets and like there's chaos and all 726 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,839 Speaker 1: this other stuff. It seems like we've substituted a lot 727 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,399 Speaker 1: of these smaller issues for really all of the sort 728 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 1: of focus that climate change can take up. But this 729 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: is a natural phenomenon because we're overwhelmed. We can't. We 730 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 1: feel completely powerless to this thing that feels like such 731 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 1: a sincere and intense existential threat. That's like fucking man, 732 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: like I can't even like let's argue about like if 733 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,839 Speaker 1: rats have empathy or something like that and just do 734 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: that obviosually they don't. I mean, have you met anyone, Well, 735 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: there was an interesting study about that actually that they 736 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: sometimes do, but they sometimes realize they have to keep 737 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: going on. Like there was a study about like rats 738 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: seeing each other in cages. Anyway, that's you mean, like 739 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: GRATITUDI kind of um, But then we also go along 740 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: and like accused like this like idea of chaos, like 741 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: you know, the phil you know, Joe Biden has said, 742 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,720 Speaker 1: if we if we you know, end the filibuster or amended, 743 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,280 Speaker 1: it could be chaos. It could be chaos for people. 744 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: It's it's not acknowled edging the chaos that exists now. 745 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 1: It's not acknowledging the chaos that will come when we 746 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 1: have no rules around how we vote and there is 747 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 1: no way to control Republican held districts from just overturning 748 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 1: election results or the fact that we'll just let the 749 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 1: earth burn just right in front of our eyes. It's 750 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 1: like Pelosi complaining about the fact that like, oh, well, 751 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: you know, some people may not want to pay other 752 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 1: people student loans. What if you are I teaching? This 753 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:26,240 Speaker 1: is the things that we have been doing for forever. 754 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 1: It's the point of being in a society is that 755 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 1: we make sure that we're all pretty good. And then 756 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 1: if you get like independently good, great for you. But 757 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 1: like the goal of society, she would to make sure 758 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: that most of us are okay. And it's it's mind 759 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 1: blowing the way a lot of people are like, well, 760 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 1: what if we hurt someone's feelings. Someone just doesn't want 761 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 1: to do that, sopecially to do stuff you don't want 762 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:47,279 Speaker 1: to do, Like I don't understand the inability to just 763 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: be like, listen, this is the highest good and we 764 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 1: need to move in that direction. Imagine this, right, y'all 765 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,279 Speaker 1: have been at jobs you're about to quit, right, sure. 766 00:41:55,840 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 1: Imagine the biggest fucking project shows up at this company, 767 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 1: if the company you work at, and you're already like, yeah, 768 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: I'm out this motherfucker. Bro. Like the second I get 769 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,760 Speaker 1: out this, think of how old some of these people 770 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 1: are in leadership. They're in the same fucking place in 771 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 1: their careers. They're like, out this motherfucker you kid, I 772 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,359 Speaker 1: can't deal with all this ship and now you've got 773 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 1: climate change. They don't have the will to fucking address 774 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: this in any way that is substantive. It's like the 775 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: same energy we're relying on people who have one foot 776 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 1: out the fucking door and one foot in the gravel. 777 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 1: The thing at the kids for talking to her about 778 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: climate change, and she was like pick one years about 779 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: like girls scouts cheme to her off and like, hey, 780 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: we really want to was it fine? Scene? I think so? 781 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 1: Like we really want to push you to like make 782 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 1: changes on climate change. He's like, you don't get to 783 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 1: come in here and make demands of me children. It 784 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:47,879 Speaker 1: was like that's literally in their planet said we're dying 785 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,799 Speaker 1: about We're going to die if you just there. Yeah, 786 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: and I get it. It It all comes together to this 787 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: omni crisis that I think humans are facing. Into your point, Aaron, like, 788 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 1: why this idea of having your ship together? That seems 789 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 1: like the last thing you can do when we truly 790 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 1: you'd hope that the focus can be on pressuring leadership 791 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 1: to do the right thing. And we'll see what happens. 792 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: I mean, they're going to have this meeting in Glasgow, 793 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 1: and if you're in Europe or you're a leader of 794 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,200 Speaker 1: you know, you see what's happening in the Mediterranean and 795 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 1: Turkey and Greece. It's on fire right now. There's a 796 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,919 Speaker 1: video clip of people fleeing this fire into this lake 797 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,959 Speaker 1: in Greece and it looked like some straight up ship. 798 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 1: They were like on a ferry and like the flames 799 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 1: are just like coming, like it just engulfed this entire 800 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 1: hillside and you're like, yeah, yeah, I I don't know. 801 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 1: Everything should come to a halt right now, and our 802 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,520 Speaker 1: only priorities should be a climate change and told you 803 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 1: just feel like all these people in charge and I'm 804 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,719 Speaker 1: I'm putting Republicans and Democrats all under the bus here 805 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 1: because it's you know, it's just election, get elected, get elected, 806 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 1: get and and you're like, what is when is anybody 807 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 1: going to take a pause just for one second and 808 00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,799 Speaker 1: be like, if we don't have her plan, none of 809 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:04,840 Speaker 1: this matters. I don't understand, like there unless they're directly impacted. 810 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,319 Speaker 1: And let's like they go back to their house after 811 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:09,319 Speaker 1: a vote and there's like a ring of fire or 812 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 1: they're in a sinkhole, it feels like nothing will get 813 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,240 Speaker 1: through to them. You know, it has to directly impact 814 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 1: them or their pocket book. Like that's it. So, I mean, 815 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,399 Speaker 1: I think most That's what's funny is like most people 816 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: seem to see the effects that there that are happening 817 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 1: around them. It will be another to then wait and 818 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 1: see how we legislate our way out of this or 819 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 1: if you know, like what happens, because there is a 820 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:37,960 Speaker 1: world where we do nothing and we still have very 821 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 1: rigid borders, and you will see people in mass migrate 822 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 1: to escape climate change. And then you will see real 823 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: conflicts pop up around the world over resources that are 824 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 1: going to be solved with armed with arms. It's gonna 825 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: happen here already happening. I mean, it's already happening. It's 826 00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 1: still like people are going to be like, Okay, I'm 827 00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 1: gonna go to New A, England. I'm gonna you know 828 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like right now that's like almost the 829 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: most moderate as where I grew up. And I'm like, 830 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,239 Speaker 1: it's gonna be like people crossing the border into a 831 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: Rhode Island in Connecticut in forty years are people you 832 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:18,160 Speaker 1: can't It's it's literally going to happen within our states. Yeah, 833 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: And I think that's the thing is while many people 834 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 1: just look at sort of like, well, I don't know 835 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: what are we gonna do about it, we have to 836 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: you have to really sort of think holistically about what 837 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:29,839 Speaker 1: this all means, like to be on this course and 838 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:33,520 Speaker 1: how it will inspire other people and affect other people 839 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: in their movement. And just natural are innate habits, are 840 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,919 Speaker 1: just our will as human beings to survive, and that's 841 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:43,319 Speaker 1: going to be to go to where we're safe, where 842 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 1: we find that we know there are resources this is 843 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 1: Lord of the flies. I mean, all can expect to 844 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:52,520 Speaker 1: piggy piggy right, and the clock is sticking, but there 845 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 1: is you know, their whole thing was, Yes, it's bad, 846 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,880 Speaker 1: and there are things that cannot be reversed, but we 847 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: can do, how love a lot to actually change it. 848 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 1: So you don't want to get fully black pilled here 849 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,359 Speaker 1: and say like, well, it's the jig is completely up. 850 00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 1: But we've definitely but we're at the point where like 851 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 1: we done burnt one side of the toast, so you 852 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:17,759 Speaker 1: don't want to burn the other side and then it's 853 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 1: all fucked up. You unplug the toaster, people, please, or 854 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 1: at least away from the toaster. All right, let's let's 855 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: take a quick break, pay some bills, and we'll talk 856 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:46,880 Speaker 1: about something a little more fun after this and we're back. Hey, 857 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:49,359 Speaker 1: but look, we're doing what we can and it's tough. 858 00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 1: Oh one other things I just wanted to add about 859 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,720 Speaker 1: that climate change things like also the way our media 860 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,480 Speaker 1: reports it. It's really difficult for the media to report 861 00:46:56,520 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 1: it properly. One because mainstream media is you know a 862 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: lot of the first thing, a lot of journalists don't 863 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 1: have the bandwidth or the expertise to pour through a 864 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,799 Speaker 1: legislative bill and say how much money for this and 865 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 1: then be able to extrapolate a dollar amount and then say, wow, 866 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 1: fifty billion towards solar is actually nothing at all, you know, 867 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 1: because we're sort of caught up in this thing and 868 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: saying like, oh, wow, this much for this, that's good, 869 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 1: this much for that, that's good. But we don't it's 870 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:27,440 Speaker 1: it's seldom are we getting the real kind of hard 871 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: scientific analysis on like what these numbers actually mean. Because again, 872 00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,360 Speaker 1: when you're like a journalist and maybe the New York Times, 873 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 1: you need to maintain relationships with politicians. So going back 874 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:42,040 Speaker 1: and be like ripping up their you know, through commentary 875 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 1: what their bills actually do or don't do, might not 876 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 1: be a great tactic. So and for the reader, yeah, 877 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 1: and for the reader like it. These numbers get so 878 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:56,240 Speaker 1: large they become meaningless. All I can get my handed 879 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 1: around is like if I see a hundred dollar bill, 880 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, that looks good. Then it gets into 881 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:06,520 Speaker 1: crazy land. Twenty seven gazillion for solar sounds great. I 882 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: have no idea what that means. Billion. I don't know 883 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 1: what that like. You know what I mean it's it's 884 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: just bananas. Never say adds zeros. And then they all go, 885 00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,400 Speaker 1: this is great no idea, And I feel like I'm 886 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,799 Speaker 1: an informed person and I have no idea, right, and 887 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 1: then we're forced to having to like really look for 888 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 1: that scientific analysis. I mean, it's out there. But at 889 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 1: the same time, they're not getting the same platform, like 890 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:30,759 Speaker 1: on TV or whatever, because it seems like a lot 891 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,000 Speaker 1: of the time they they'll say it's alarmed, like it's 892 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:37,720 Speaker 1: being alarmist or whatever. It's like, We're like, this isn't 893 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:42,160 Speaker 1: alarm this is the definition of alarmist. This is this 894 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:46,560 Speaker 1: is this is the alarm, this is the this is 895 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 1: the bell, this is get under your desks, this is 896 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 1: come on, yeah, no more bullshitting ourselves. Um okay, let's 897 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,120 Speaker 1: just move on to to some people who might be 898 00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 1: bullshitting themselves nursing their egoic wound because at the end 899 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 1: of last week we found out, you know, Barack Obama 900 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:06,400 Speaker 1: he's having the sixtieth birthday Martha's Vineyard and had to 901 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 1: significantly downsized the guest list. That was painful to only 902 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,640 Speaker 1: close friends and family. But it seemed like there was 903 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 1: it seems still like it was popping, of course it was. 904 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:22,560 Speaker 1: But you know, apparently Beyonce and Ja jay Z they 905 00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:25,919 Speaker 1: are close friends and family, as of many other celebrities, 906 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 1: but others weren't so lucky, like David axel Rod, David Letterman, 907 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 1: O'Brien and Larry and Larry David just the name of you. 908 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:42,560 Speaker 1: All the comic people are there. Okay, listen, but if 909 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 1: you're having a birthday party, right you want there? And 910 00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 1: she showed up. She sometimes doesn't show up to the 911 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:56,399 Speaker 1: Grammy's frequently late. Okay, but she showed up. That makes 912 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 1: sense to me. David Letterman is gonna be asleep by nine. 913 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: He's not interested, He's it's fine. I'm sure David was like, oh, 914 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: thank god, anyway, I don't I don't. Conan is probably hurt. 915 00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie, and it's like, hey, I'm in there. 916 00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 1: I'm a fun guy. I feel like Larry David was 917 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:16,040 Speaker 1: also like man and his classic Yeah, I don't know. 918 00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,759 Speaker 1: That's it's funny because every sort of comedic take on 919 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 1: the internet was just sort of like this feels like 920 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 1: a Curb episode where Larry David is invited to Obama's 921 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,319 Speaker 1: birthday and then not invited and then whatever he does 922 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,560 Speaker 1: after that, I'm not I'm trying to figure out how 923 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:32,960 Speaker 1: that premise would go on an actual curb episode if 924 00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 1: it's that, you know, like one thing would be that, 925 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,360 Speaker 1: like if COVID wasn't a thing and that wasn't the 926 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:40,760 Speaker 1: reason for him being disinvited. It's because like he gets 927 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,320 Speaker 1: like he'd probably talking up like a beautiful woman because 928 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 1: it's single Larry, and he's like, you know, we can 929 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,680 Speaker 1: go to Obama's birthday and they go out to Martha's 930 00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:49,879 Speaker 1: vineyard and then at the door, they're like, sorry, Mr David, 931 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:51,600 Speaker 1: we can't let you in, and he's like, but but 932 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 1: but I'm on the list, and it's like and then 933 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 1: they find out it's like something he said in the 934 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 1: past that like to stop the Obama's or whatever, and 935 00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:01,400 Speaker 1: he's like, or I don't know, that's it. That's an 936 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:04,719 Speaker 1: easy cross out for me, and it probably, honestly, behind 937 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 1: the scenes, was a very easy cross out. I mean, 938 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: this is like your last breath, dying words. You don't 939 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:16,279 Speaker 1: disinvite Beyonce. You don't have a party without Beyonce. When 940 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:19,280 Speaker 1: you're on the dance floor, do you want David Letterman? 941 00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:23,319 Speaker 1: Good God, No, he needs you need to start. I mean, 942 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:28,479 Speaker 1: Beyonce is like the ultimate guest to literally anything. There's 943 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:32,120 Speaker 1: white male comics more than Barack Obama. Even you'd be 944 00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:34,439 Speaker 1: like Obama came to my birthday, Like, okay, that's cool. 945 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:40,839 Speaker 1: Beyonce's you know what that line? I mean, there's no 946 00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 1: this is the easiest cross out and you just mentioned 947 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:48,880 Speaker 1: four dudes where you're like, yeah, nice to have. Conan's 948 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,840 Speaker 1: the shining star out of all of them. But I'm 949 00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll you know, you take out twenty before 950 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 1: you take out literally seventy the guest lists, before you 951 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:00,799 Speaker 1: disinvite beyond because crazy comes along great. But my mother 952 00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 1: might not make it to my party if I'm like 953 00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:07,640 Speaker 1: Beyonce mom, I don't know.

At another time, she's like, honestly, 987 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 1: that's the thing that was the party for the press 988 00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:58,880 Speaker 1: to think that he had. The real one happened in 989 00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 1: this other look, you guys, truly it was an underground 990 00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:06,200 Speaker 1: bunker in the fucking Adirondacks that you had to do 991 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:10,239 Speaker 1: and all of destines child was there. So I mean exactly, 992 00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 1: they reunited, you know, they reunited, all right? And then finally, Joel, 993 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 1: what's what's happening in the movie world, Because as I 994 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:22,840 Speaker 1: told you, I am woefully out of touch, Like whoa 995 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:26,759 Speaker 1: black rest in peace? WHOA here's your where your your 996 00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:29,160 Speaker 1: political money? Knowledge is gonna come in hand and help 997 00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 1: me because I know about the movies, but I have 998 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:35,319 Speaker 1: We're having to be asked big questions the film industry 999 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:38,480 Speaker 1: right now. Okay, so suicide squad some people are calling 1000 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:41,799 Speaker 1: it too, but it's actually titled The Suicide Squad came 1001 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:46,399 Speaker 1: out over the weekend. HBO Max decided to launch it. Yes, 1002 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:50,759 Speaker 1: you said, it's not because it's James Gunn directed this one, right, 1003 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,239 Speaker 1: I know this much. He did this one, and they 1004 00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:56,120 Speaker 1: are treating it that's not as like a piece that 1005 00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:58,200 Speaker 1: actually works with the first one. That's why they changed 1006 00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 1: it to some of the confusion. Right. So, so they 1007 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:04,840 Speaker 1: really saw on both platforms, and there's a lot of 1008 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 1: concerned about, like, why didn't this movie do well? Right? 1009 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:12,160 Speaker 1: It did fine, right, it made some I think it 1010 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 1: did million domestic and seventy two point two million worldwide, 1011 00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:19,040 Speaker 1: which is you. I think the goal post was like 1012 00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:21,840 Speaker 1: thirty thirty million was the benchmark for like this is 1013 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 1: an okay weekend opener. There's a lot of seculation about 1014 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 1: what happened. Some people think it's this title situation. Even 1015 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 1: my roommate Nathy's like, this is a sequel. Technically it 1016 00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:34,480 Speaker 1: is a sequel. It's all the same. Like main player characters. 1017 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 1: Amanda Waller played by Viola Davis is still there, Yeah, 1018 00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:40,360 Speaker 1: Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn is still there, but the Joker 1019 00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:43,920 Speaker 1: isn't there and Will Smith isn't there, right, But if 1020 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:46,759 Speaker 1: you were familiar with the comic and the context of 1021 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,400 Speaker 1: these characters, that's what suicide Squad is. It's Hey, some 1022 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:52,360 Speaker 1: supervillains on death row. We're gonna bring you in, but 1023 00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:55,239 Speaker 1: while on a possible omission, you may die. If you 1024 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:57,279 Speaker 1: come back, we'll take some years off your sentence. You 1025 00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,399 Speaker 1: may have to go back down in the field again. Um. 1026 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,480 Speaker 1: If it's not a sequel and it doesn't have the star, 1027 00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:04,439 Speaker 1: there's a lot of conversations like, oh, well, Will Smith 1028 00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:07,040 Speaker 1: wasn't it so people didn't want to see it. I 1029 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:11,320 Speaker 1: am not convinced, like post that star power is a 1030 00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:15,759 Speaker 1: thing anymore. With the advent of the Internet and specifically 1031 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 1: social media, we have a lot of different things that 1032 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 1: qualitify as a start. I Wilsmonth's obviously iconic giant. I'm 1033 00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:23,759 Speaker 1: not trying to take anything away from him, but I 1034 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 1: don't know, like his last couple of movies, not all 1035 00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 1: have performed. Will Smith's levels was great. I don't think 1036 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,040 Speaker 1: that him not being there it's okay, especially when he 1037 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 1: has somebody like interest Elba, who maybe isn't the box 1038 00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:37,280 Speaker 1: office in station that Will Smith's is. But the trends 1039 00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:40,600 Speaker 1: reasonably well, and I think Bring does bring certain gravitas 1040 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 1: to films and put butts in seats. There's also the 1041 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:48,040 Speaker 1: concern people were questioning, you know, is it because of COVID. 1042 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:50,440 Speaker 1: I think COVID has a big impact, but because it 1043 00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:52,080 Speaker 1: didn't make as much as say a Space Jam a 1044 00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:54,439 Speaker 1: New Legacy which did cross that thirty million to thirty 1045 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: one million, or Jungle Cruise thirty five million, were like, well, 1046 00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,319 Speaker 1: it couldn't be COVID, but it's rated are There's so 1047 00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: many like rectors that go into like why didn't this 1048 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 1: movie make a lot of money? But what's really upsetting 1049 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 1: to me is that a lot of people are suggesting 1050 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:11,960 Speaker 1: that like nobody wanted to see it period, and I 1051 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 1: just don't think that's the case. I think they made 1052 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 1: a huge gamble going with an R rated film, right 1053 00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:19,479 Speaker 1: we know PG thirteens will always make more money because 1054 00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:21,120 Speaker 1: teenagers will go out and see it. They have a 1055 00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: lot of disposable cash. Blah blah blah. I think that 1056 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 1: this movie is you can't even argue it's so much 1057 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 1: better than the original one, leaps and bounds better, mostly 1058 00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 1: because Warner Brothers didn't decide to do a re edit 1059 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 1: based off of an add because people had good reactions 1060 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:40,160 Speaker 1: to it, like Gun like really held it down. It's 1061 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 1: super violent. It's absolutely like ditched into the essential of 1062 00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:46,880 Speaker 1: these characters and evolves them. I think that there's a 1063 00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:49,320 Speaker 1: lot to love about this, but I do wonder like 1064 00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:51,600 Speaker 1: a lot of people saying like, oh, well, it's not 1065 00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 1: successful or this is a failure. It has not yet 1066 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:57,120 Speaker 1: made its money back. I think this movie had a 1067 00:57:57,160 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 1: budget of a hundred and only undred and seven million 1068 00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,439 Speaker 1: something that a lot a lot of money went into 1069 00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:05,720 Speaker 1: making this movie, which if you compare it to a 1070 00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:08,680 Speaker 1: similar movies, Deadpool two was made for hundred and ten, 1071 00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 1: Logan was made for nineties seven, Joker was made for 1072 00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:14,600 Speaker 1: sixty five million. The last two are R rated movies. 1073 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 1: They made a lot of money back. Some people thought 1074 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 1: it was like, oh, this is too much money to 1075 00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:21,360 Speaker 1: spend on an R rated film. I think DC is 1076 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,600 Speaker 1: doing the only thing it can do, especially when it's 1077 00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:25,920 Speaker 1: up against the giant like Mark, like it's DC and 1078 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 1: Marvel period. When it comes to comics, there's a ton 1079 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:30,160 Speaker 1: of other comic book companies, but those are the two 1080 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:33,080 Speaker 1: major ones, and Warner Brothers has to do something to 1081 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 1: pull out ahead and try to be competitive Marvel. It's 1082 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 1: like they're only goal. It's it's the only thing that 1083 00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 1: makes sense to them to lean into an R rated 1084 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 1: market when it's something Disney absolutely will not do with 1085 00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:47,880 Speaker 1: their main Brand's the only thing that makes sense. And 1086 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 1: if you're gonna make content that good in the nineties, 1087 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:53,120 Speaker 1: this is a smatch hit because it's gonna keep running 1088 00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:54,600 Speaker 1: in theaters. People gonna be like, oh God, I have 1089 00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:56,600 Speaker 1: to see that. I Am not going to a theater 1090 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:58,200 Speaker 1: right now, but I want to see the theaters. It's 1091 00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:00,600 Speaker 1: still good. I've already seen it twice. Would absolutely have 1092 00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:03,880 Speaker 1: paid for the privilege on HBO Max to view it. 1093 00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:07,680 Speaker 1: It is a really really solid film, with some hay 1094 00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:09,720 Speaker 1: wire stuff in the end, but for the most part, 1095 00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:14,200 Speaker 1: really enjoyable film, good action, great performers like you've never 1096 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:16,959 Speaker 1: had Viola Davis and it just Elba go toe to toe, 1097 00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:19,600 Speaker 1: but in this movie they do, and it's exciting and 1098 00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:22,800 Speaker 1: it's fun. I think this is a smart move. I 1099 00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:26,920 Speaker 1: think that we as a community film folks have to 1100 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 1: have to have to get back into the idea of like, 1101 00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:32,000 Speaker 1: let a movie breathe. A movie should not be the 1102 00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:34,200 Speaker 1: lifetime of a movie should not exist based off of 1103 00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:37,400 Speaker 1: its opening weekend numbers. I think if we look back 1104 00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 1: when we just watched um this whole behind seen things 1105 00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 1: on Pretty Woman. Pretty Woman ran for like a year 1106 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:43,760 Speaker 1: and a half in theaters, and I know we don't 1107 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,040 Speaker 1: live in that world anymore, but I wish we had 1108 00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:49,520 Speaker 1: found a way to like look beyond just what how 1109 00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:51,920 Speaker 1: much you did this movie make? As far as like 1110 00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:54,440 Speaker 1: it's this successful end well this like there's start of 1111 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:56,040 Speaker 1: people be like who heads are about to world? D 1112 00:59:56,120 --> 00:59:57,760 Speaker 1: see so many people are gonna get fired. I was like, 1113 00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:00,560 Speaker 1: but for what for making a solid movie that maybe 1114 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:03,960 Speaker 1: hasn't found its audience yet? Because we use this very 1115 01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:07,240 Speaker 1: messed up lens to look at to quantify success right now. 1116 01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 1: And I think especially like in the eighties and nineties, 1117 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:14,280 Speaker 1: when marketing people started taking over development at the studios, 1118 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:16,640 Speaker 1: they completely change the emphasis of what a film that 1119 01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:18,920 Speaker 1: should be made is because they're they're like, well, get 1120 01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:21,200 Speaker 1: the numbers, marketing people in here, because we just got 1121 01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:23,320 Speaker 1: to get stuff that like does well, like, let's not 1122 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:27,720 Speaker 1: take risks and make fun things. Let's just get nailed 1123 01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:31,120 Speaker 1: on after nailed on hit and at the expense of 1124 01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:34,160 Speaker 1: giving people that you know, freedom to like ID eight 1125 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 1: or experiment and things like that, and so yeah, I 1126 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,560 Speaker 1: don't know if it's like what makes it in as 1127 01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:41,840 Speaker 1: twenty six point five because I didn't get the thirty 1128 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:44,800 Speaker 1: that it fell like under four millions. Short, people need 1129 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:49,720 Speaker 1: to calm down, for god's sakes. It's opening weekend, in 1130 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:53,960 Speaker 1: the mid in the middle, and also with all the streamers, 1131 01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 1: and then right to we're not gonna know numbers, and 1132 01:00:56,880 --> 01:01:02,200 Speaker 1: this whole definition of the success, this whole models changed everything. 1133 01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 1: Throw the books, nobody, nobody. Everyone just has to be like, 1134 01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:09,480 Speaker 1: this is how it's done, so it doesn't hit eight millions, 1135 01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,600 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, stupid whatever. The movie is gonna 1136 01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:13,360 Speaker 1: be fine. The movies is gonna be fine. I just 1137 01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 1: think that, like for me, this is indicative of such 1138 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:18,360 Speaker 1: a much larger problem within the film industry, which is 1139 01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 1: we're no longer interested in making middle movies. Right, it's 1140 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 1: blockbusters or bust. And I think that that's a really 1141 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:26,960 Speaker 1: bad It's it's a bad call for movies because then 1142 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 1: you're relying very specifically on star power alone, which doesn't 1143 01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:32,960 Speaker 1: allow you to develop new talent at all. And so 1144 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:34,720 Speaker 1: he ends up happening is you get a lot of 1145 01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:37,360 Speaker 1: indie guys who've made a small film that did well 1146 01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:40,760 Speaker 1: at a film festival get pulled up into the stratosphere 1147 01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:44,240 Speaker 1: of doing a hundred million dollar box office sensation that 1148 01:01:44,280 --> 01:01:46,440 Speaker 1: they don't have any idea how to run or operate 1149 01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:49,200 Speaker 1: or direct because they're going from maybe they had sixty 1150 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 1: five thousand dollars to make a film too, now they 1151 01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:53,440 Speaker 1: have a hundred millions. They've got two separate crew shooting 1152 01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 1: around the clock. It's just it's not as far as 1153 01:01:56,160 --> 01:02:00,640 Speaker 1: like creating developing talent a sufficient model moving forward. And 1154 01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 1: I do think that if we don't take some time 1155 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 1: to like find that middle ground and find and create 1156 01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 1: movies that like really I feel like Tug of the 1157 01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 1: heartshings and become these like indemnable classics that we truly love. 1158 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at things like a Creamer versus Creamer, 1159 01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 1: like all of these different kinds of movies that have 1160 01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:21,120 Speaker 1: you know, young star talent, young directors and writers who 1161 01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:22,960 Speaker 1: are sort of just working on their craft and who 1162 01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:25,920 Speaker 1: want to tell something that isn't about appealing to the 1163 01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:28,800 Speaker 1: widest demographic, but it's a story that is personal to 1164 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:32,640 Speaker 1: them that can't just stay in the indies or it shouldn't. 1165 01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 1: I just think that there has to be space for 1166 01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:37,720 Speaker 1: that at these larger places. And I think that while 1167 01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:40,200 Speaker 1: Suicide Squad was never going to be that because I mean, 1168 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 1: it's got all of the superstars, I think when we 1169 01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:46,920 Speaker 1: can't even allow a movie like this to do okay 1170 01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:49,400 Speaker 1: instead of great, then that definitely doesn't leave any hope 1171 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:51,840 Speaker 1: for the rest of these films that you know, I 1172 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,520 Speaker 1: think we should be making. And even last week when 1173 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,080 Speaker 1: we're talking or I think the day maybe yesterday, when 1174 01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:58,960 Speaker 1: we were just talking about how this even affects like 1175 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:02,200 Speaker 1: black filmmakers to when you're you're focused on this like 1176 01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:04,840 Speaker 1: sink or swim model and it has to be just 1177 01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:09,360 Speaker 1: just bookoo bucks out the gate, especially when it comes 1178 01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:11,920 Speaker 1: to you know, black writer, director or whatever trying to 1179 01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:13,680 Speaker 1: get their foot in the door. If it's not there, 1180 01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:17,280 Speaker 1: then boom, that immediately evaporates because we're so overleveraged on 1181 01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 1: this idea of like in immediate success, like we have 1182 01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 1: to do numbers like we've got. We've got to tell 1183 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 1: people what we've earned at this corner we've lost. Isn't 1184 01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 1: the middle ground though? Couldn't it be more like when 1185 01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:32,120 Speaker 1: it when this whole new model of releasing a movie 1186 01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:36,520 Speaker 1: on HBO, Max or Hulu at the same time as theater, 1187 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:40,600 Speaker 1: does that take some of the pressure off, like if 1188 01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:44,040 Speaker 1: if in the lower budget or middle movie. No, no, no, no, 1189 01:03:44,080 --> 01:03:47,480 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I didn't ask that, right, I meant your point, 1190 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:49,280 Speaker 1: which I think is a really great point of just 1191 01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:51,080 Speaker 1: it has to be this blow up, it has to 1192 01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:53,840 Speaker 1: be so huge. Is there a model where all these 1193 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 1: movies that have to be so big and so huge 1194 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 1: they there's a different model now of success in the theater. 1195 01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 1: First may be the smaller movies will gain traction of 1196 01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:07,320 Speaker 1: just a release on Hulu and a release on HBO 1197 01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:10,080 Speaker 1: and a release on Netflix. The problem is we're still 1198 01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:13,240 Speaker 1: working out contractually how to make sure everyone gets paid 1199 01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:15,880 Speaker 1: in a way that's very and equitable. Right. So, Scarlett 1200 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:18,080 Speaker 1: Joe Hanson just had a sue Disney, and you know, 1201 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,000 Speaker 1: I don't know love lost between me and Scarlett Joe Hansson, 1202 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:23,480 Speaker 1: but I still hope she wins her suit because in 1203 01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:25,760 Speaker 1: her virtual contract it was based off of ticket sales. 1204 01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:32,160 Speaker 1: Right when she's right and you know, very well documented 1205 01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:33,960 Speaker 1: her lawyers and her team was like, yo, if you 1206 01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:35,880 Speaker 1: have to release on streaming, that's fine, but we need 1207 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:39,600 Speaker 1: to renegotiate what her back end sales looks like. Right, 1208 01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:41,480 Speaker 1: And this is a problem is happening all over the place. 1209 01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:43,560 Speaker 1: So there's a really great article just came out this 1210 01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:48,080 Speaker 1: morning about comic book creators who are maybe maybe seeing 1211 01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:51,720 Speaker 1: five thousand dollar checks from these movies based off characters 1212 01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:55,560 Speaker 1: that wool Block came from their head, right, And so 1213 01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:58,720 Speaker 1: the issue then becomes like if if you're putting the 1214 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:00,680 Speaker 1: smaller movies on streaming and go, well, we didn't make 1215 01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:03,520 Speaker 1: any ticket sales off that, so you're not getting jack. 1216 01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:07,800 Speaker 1: You know, we understand like in order to for again, 1217 01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:09,520 Speaker 1: for a lot of black folks, you have to create 1218 01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 1: your own production company in order to get any kind 1219 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:13,480 Speaker 1: of good content out there. But what Davis has had 1220 01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:16,600 Speaker 1: to do it DuVernay has her own production company. Even 1221 01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:19,160 Speaker 1: the little girl from Blackish on creation like a thirteen 1222 01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 1: year old mogul created her own productions. Yeah, exactly, Yeah, 1223 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:29,720 Speaker 1: there's there's there's a necessity in developing your own space 1224 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:32,000 Speaker 1: so that it's easier to say yes or no. You're 1225 01:05:32,000 --> 01:05:35,240 Speaker 1: putting up a little bit of capital, but the hope 1226 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 1: is then that you're getting some of that back in 1227 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:38,040 Speaker 1: the back end, and the only way we've done that 1228 01:05:38,080 --> 01:05:41,040 Speaker 1: so far is through ticket sales, and so I'm just 1229 01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:44,400 Speaker 1: not sure if relegating smaller films strictly to streaming is 1230 01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:48,600 Speaker 1: going to solve or exacerbate that problem. My hope is that, 1231 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:51,360 Speaker 1: you know, we find a way, because because I don't 1232 01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:53,920 Speaker 1: think the streaming model is going anywhere. People like watching 1233 01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:57,480 Speaker 1: films from home, and unlike previous years, people have whole 1234 01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:01,000 Speaker 1: movie theaters in their house right for actors and you 1235 01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:03,919 Speaker 1: know whatever, couch sometimes they actually have the reclining chairs, 1236 01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:06,240 Speaker 1: like whatever it is. People are comfortable watching movies in 1237 01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:10,680 Speaker 1: their house and it's less expensive. I just think what 1238 01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:12,600 Speaker 1: I thought for a while is that what's going to 1239 01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:15,160 Speaker 1: continue to do well in movie theaters are event movies. 1240 01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:17,800 Speaker 1: Suicide Squad is absolutely a movie I want to see 1241 01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:20,920 Speaker 1: in theaters because it's so freaking big and loud and 1242 01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:23,440 Speaker 1: and there's something to watching like those. Like event movies 1243 01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 1: and horror movies are better in an audience than they'll 1244 01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:27,800 Speaker 1: ever be at your house. Right, A scare is not 1245 01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:31,840 Speaker 1: as scary, yeah, by yourself, when but there's sixty people, 1246 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 1: Oh god, no, that's I'll turn off. I'm like no, no, 1247 01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:40,479 Speaker 1: I'm often but then but then you're in the ride 1248 01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:43,120 Speaker 1: together and it's like a very visceral as close to 1249 01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:45,640 Speaker 1: like theatrical theater as you can get, right, And that's 1250 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:47,600 Speaker 1: what makes movies great is it was this opportunity to 1251 01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:52,000 Speaker 1: expand theater to places that don't typically have theater. Right, 1252 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:58,160 Speaker 1: it's just like it's just h Yeah, there's something so 1253 01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:01,080 Speaker 1: great about the community of theater and movie goers that 1254 01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:03,720 Speaker 1: I genuinely don't want to lose. But there's also something 1255 01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 1: so great about film and theater creators that I really 1256 01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:09,040 Speaker 1: I just want to see them be able to do well. 1257 01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:11,520 Speaker 1: And maybe the answer will be more like arc Light 1258 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:17,919 Speaker 1: and uh crap, what's the Austin, Texas Movie House? More 1259 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:20,920 Speaker 1: like as if Alma post pandemic. They've got a pretty 1260 01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:23,640 Speaker 1: solid plan post pandemic to roll out a bunch of 1261 01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:26,760 Speaker 1: new movie theaters across the country, and theaters like that 1262 01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:30,760 Speaker 1: who really really love cinema, the artsy aspect of it, 1263 01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,600 Speaker 1: the weird, the different can come along and then you 1264 01:07:33,640 --> 01:07:35,720 Speaker 1: know your standard a m c s can continue to 1265 01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:38,400 Speaker 1: do big budget things. I would really like to see that, 1266 01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:40,280 Speaker 1: and then maybe there would be like a ticket price 1267 01:07:40,320 --> 01:07:43,880 Speaker 1: disparity between those two. I'm not I'm not. I don't 1268 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:47,280 Speaker 1: do the money science maths stuff, but I think that 1269 01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:50,520 Speaker 1: there might be a way forward in that because little 1270 01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:55,600 Speaker 1: movies they deserve respect to. Absolutely, Suicide Squad was great. 1271 01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:57,800 Speaker 1: It was what it needed to be. We deserve adult content, 1272 01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:00,280 Speaker 1: damn it. Not everything needs to be PG thirteen. Okay, 1273 01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:05,240 Speaker 1: thank you. We we deserve adult content, damn it. I 1274 01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:08,000 Speaker 1: see a shark rip a man in half. It's all 1275 01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:10,640 Speaker 1: I'm asking for.
