Mm hmm, alright, 142 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: what about it? Going Okay, So I just like I 143 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: tried watching my two and a half three episodes and 144 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: I couldn't get into it. And every time I tell 145 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 1: somebody this, who's like a breaking bad stand, they tell 146 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: me you just gotta keep watching the season gets better. 147 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: And my argument would be, do I really have to 148 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: invest that much time into it to actually enjoy? Like 149 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: the show should be good and hook me. I feel 150 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: like from the start I shouldn't have to like invest 151 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: in entire season into it's actually like it. That's my 152 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: argument when it comes to this show. That's what's so 153 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: good about the show? Is it fucking sucks? That's how 154 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: you know it's it's such ship and then you figure 155 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: it out that it's bad but too late, and then 156 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: you're like, no, it was actually really good. It's like 157 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: some one of the best series ever. I mean I 158 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: get that. I get that lack of momentum. That's like 159 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: the whole reason I never watched mad Men, because like 160 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: I was two episodes like what the fun and people 161 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: like you're gonta get in more? I'm like, no, I don't, right, 162 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: So I don't keep going with something else. I'm bad 163 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: at these like I don't I don't like Game of Thrones, 164 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: like all the shows that people are like, I think, 165 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: the greatest show ever, I just can't get into it. 166 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: So maybe it also is a meeting, right, I bet 167 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: it's probably harder, like because I remember I got into 168 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: Breaking Bad, like maybe after the second season had rapped 169 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: for the third season had rapped, and at that point, 170 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: like a lot of people are talking about it, I 171 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: was like, no, I don't know, like whatever, and then 172 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 1: I just watched it just to see. But I didn't 173 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: have people being like you gotta like watch it, like 174 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: watch this episode. Was just like my natural curiosity took 175 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: me there. And I wonder if sometimes, like when you 176 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: feel almost obligated to watch a show to like, you know, 177 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: keep up with the discourse or whatever, that it's just 178 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,079 Speaker 1: the motivations are a little bit different, and then it 179 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 1: has like even like a even more a stronger litmus 180 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: test that it has to pass for you to be like, okay, 181 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: I'll watch it. Yeah. It might be the hype, like 182 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 1: if it doesn't you know what I mean, like because 183 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: it's so overhyped, if it doesn't live up to your 184 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: expectation of it just being like amazing from the get 185 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: it might. I don't know. I just I don't get 186 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: these like hype you know, hype beast type of shows. 187 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: I guess maybe I put too many, you know, it's 188 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: too much expectation on them. Yeah, Breaking Bad does stand 189 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: out to me is one that like really goes up 190 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 1: a level after the first few episodes. And by the way, 191 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 1: for any listeners who heard my son came to my door, 192 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: my three year old to tell me there's a fly 193 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 1: in the house. He also was not wearing any pants 194 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: on his bottom and so I had to deal with 195 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:45,959 Speaker 1: told you toward he's home from school today, So apologies 196 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: for any scattered nous. Breaking Bad does stand out as 197 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: as a show that kind of changes, like steps up 198 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: a level. I don't I don't think madmen really like 199 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: oh yeah, the first like they're like to get that, 200 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: I get it slow, but like I'm like, maybe because 201 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: I don't fantasize about this era in general, Like first 202 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: wasn't a good time for people like me. So I'm like, yeah, 203 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: let me go there and watch that. Break Bad turns 204 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: from like a family drama into like right, and I 205 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: think that's why I wanted some like fucking gangster ship. 206 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: And then it was just like this dude with his 207 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: family and like, you know, I mean, listen, I get 208 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 1: great storyline, but it wasn't what I was there for. 209 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah. Well with that though in mind, I'm 210 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: curious if because did you get to the part where 211 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: like he's like he starts he gets on the gangster 212 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: and starts blowing shut up. No, no, I got to 213 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: the part where they're like basically just figuring out what 214 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: to do with that one dude in the tub. Essentially, oh, 215 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: got it, got it, got it. I mean that was 216 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: I think a moment when I was like, oh shit, okay, yeah, 217 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: things changed a little bit there, but season one isn't it? Dude? Honestly, 218 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: I don't even know anymore. I'm like, I love the 219 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: place with shows that have come out. Wait, what's the 220 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: show that you do like of all the you know, 221 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 1: like when people talk about the great shows, like, what's 222 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: the one that you've that you vibe with? Are you 223 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: just in generally like, I don't really think any of 224 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: these are good? No, I mean I'm trying to think 225 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: of like what what the hype? I like, like Sons 226 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: of Anarch you have no shame of saying that, Like 227 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: you know fell off a couple of seasons, but like 228 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: of of the hype, I was into it. I followed 229 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: it till the till the very end, you know, to 230 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: watch the Sopranos. Sopranos, I never have sat down and 231 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: watched an episode so that when I'm willing to. But 232 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: I've never actually sat and watched an episode for The Wire. 233 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: The Wire, same thing. I think, you know, there's there's 234 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 1: some good there's some good ones in there, but I 235 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, in general, maybe the long form 236 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: TV doesn't really get you. Then it doesn't get it 237 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 1: might be daunting now because there's so many seasons, you 238 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,599 Speaker 1: know what I mean, like and it's like the to 239 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: catch up on it all, like you know, it's just 240 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: I can binge watch it for a long time. But 241 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: I feel like Sons of Anarchy was like one episode 242 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: a week. I can commit to that, you know, where 243 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: it's like now being able to watch every episode at 244 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: one time, it feels like, you know, I don't know, Oh, Entourage, Entourage. 245 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: I love that show from start to finish, like first season, 246 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: all right, that one, that's my show. That That's definitely one, 247 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:22,199 Speaker 1: especially when they were making you know, Super producer on 248 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: a Hosie I was asking if you like Boardwalk Empire, 249 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 1: but I can just tell already that's a South Jersey show. 250 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: I can't can't funk with it. Sorry that if you 251 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: didn't like, he's not gonna with Boardwalk Empire, come on, yeah, 252 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: I gotta draw the line there. What is something you 253 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: think is overrated? Okay? I know you guys have mentioned 254 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: you you talked about it on this week, but Spotify wropped. Okay. 255 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 1: I I was up two minds. It's either overrated or 256 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: perfectly right, depending on like what your timeline is. Like, 257 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: I think it's fun, and I was thinking was really fun, 258 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: except I have some questions about my numbers. I think 259 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: some of the data is off. It was Lord was 260 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: in my top five, and I love Lord and I 261 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: love Lord's back Kintalog, but I hated the new album, 262 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: so I was like actively not streaming her this year, 263 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: and she was like my number three, allegedly my number 264 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: three most streamed artists, And that just doesn't feel right 265 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: to me. Are there playlists? Maybe he was coming on passively, 266 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: like you weren't intending to play it, but you're just 267 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: rocking with some playlists and it was on there. I 268 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah, I mean I do listen to melodrama 269 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 1: a lot, so it's but I don't know. And then 270 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: I found out that there's this intern, this girl who 271 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: used to intern at Spotify. Her name is Juel, who 272 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: tweeted and she was like me watching the Spotify rap 273 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: knowing that I pitched this as an intern and I'm 274 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: doing like from and it's like it's just classic, and 275 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: she was really cool about it. She's like, I get it. 276 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to litigate this or anything like that. 277 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: But here's my pitch deck. And if you look at 278 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: her p deck, it is it looks exactly like how 279 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: all the slides look for the New Interact Spotified rap, 280 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: because she pitched it when they did Spotify rap where 281 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: it was just a link get like a list or whatever, 282 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: and this pitch deck is like this incredible, like just 283 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: exactly the genius brain thing a twenty two year old 284 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: would who's super fluent with social media would come up with. 285 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: And you know, Spotify as a statement, that's like we 286 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: get a lot of ideas from you know, we hear 287 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: a lot of ideas a lot of the time. And 288 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: Joel's Okay, she's like presenting at art Basil this weekend 289 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: or something like that. Yeah, she's cool, she's she's doing it, 290 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: but it's still like the whole the ethics of internships 291 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: and whatever. Yeah, and apologies for everyone because I'm spamming 292 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: the fucking timeline with retweets. Well, I do think. I 293 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: do think it's nice. I do really like that they 294 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: have the podcast section because I really like using Spotify 295 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: for podcasts more than Apple podcast Us. Always thought that 296 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 1: was like annoying, and making podcast big on Spotify is good. 297 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: And this year everyone tagging their favorite creators and stuff. 298 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: It rules. I think that's nice. That's not overrated. But 299 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: I wish I had I just use the iHeart Radio app. 300 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: So I don't really get those metrics, but I think 301 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: it's coming down the road. I think eventually. Right, is 302 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: that you're just like being I Heart Radio good company 303 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: boy or it's just the best. And I Heart Radio 304 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: is number one for audio, so it's pretty obvious. I 305 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: love that. Yeah, I love radio. Wherever get your podcast? 306 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, no, no, actually, I'm just kidding.

Really, 311 00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: although I radio you want to Taylor's a podcast. What 312 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: if something you think is underrated? Well, so I'm in Auckland, 313 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: New Zealand, um, and we are. Actually we've just celebrated 314 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: our hundredth day of our lockdown. So it's obviously a 315 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: huge accomplishment in and of itself, but that does come 316 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,919 Speaker 1: with missing You're both making quite sort of scrunching up 317 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: your faces in it. Yeah, three months. Uh do you 318 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: guys know when you're getting out? This feels like if 319 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: I were in prison for life and someone's like, man, 320 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: I got five months in here, but we made it. 321 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: The first three were good to be like, fuck, we know, 322 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,439 Speaker 1: we're we are, We're almost out, and it's um, you know, 323 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: it's been a long time, but it's done its job. 324 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: But I missed some socializing. Did be shocked to here. 325 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: And one of the things I'm looking forward to, which 326 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: I think is underrated is getting into a car with 327 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: four adult for getting like five grown ups in a car, 328 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: because technically a car is designed to accommodate five grown us, 329 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: but as soon as you do it, you know they 330 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: never thought it would actually happen every time. And there's 331 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: just there's a there's something I like about that that 332 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 1: there's a camaraderie. Yeah, and like you know, being in 333 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: the middle and the back and you think there's not 334 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: enough space back here. I just want to I just 335 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: want to feel the experience of socializing, I guess, is 336 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Maybe maybe I think socializing is underrated, 337 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: but mainly it's the just being like crushed into a 338 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: into a moving visa. I feel like, and this my 339 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, we're rounding into summer here, and I'm getting 340 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 1: getting excited. I'm getting a hit of myself. But there's 341 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: something about like if I get into a car with 342 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: four other adults, it's usually because we're going somewhere exciting 343 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: or a little bit you know, it's a little bit 344 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: hard to get to a little bit far away, and 345 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: I want that feeling I respected. I went bowling for 346 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: the first time, like in fifteen years to weeks ago, 347 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: but it's also the first time I saw more than 348 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: like two friends in their house. We were trying to 349 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: special distance and be respectful and not kill each other. Uh, 350 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: and it was wonderful. We got drinks, there was pizza involved. 351 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 1: It was it was pretty close to heaven after being 352 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: trapped in my house. You a work meeting in person 353 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: the other day. Guys, it's mind blowing out there. We 354 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 1: had an office talking to each other, drawing on walls. 355 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: Who knew life was this glorious. I really feel like 356 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 1: the pandemic has giving me a new lease on life 357 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: and that, like, I just really want to appreciate every 358 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 1: day I don't have to be inside of my house. Yeah, 359 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 1: that was great. That was great. Just like Joel, you 360 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: weren't here for this, but Guy was just lording it 361 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 1: over us for all this time we were in America 362 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: as the United States was scrumbling around us and we 363 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: weren't allowed out of the house. Guy was like, yeah, 364 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 1: I just went to a sporting event and it was 365 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: wonderful and freeing. Um, how's it going over there? Though, 366 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: even though we had talked for fifteen minutes about how 367 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: it's going over here? Guy disappointing. That's okay. You know, 368 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm a centurion now, so we I've experienced 369 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: some of those liberties and now I also have the 370 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: I guess the sense of participation in accomplishment that comes 371 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: with being in your house for a very long time. 372 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 1: We basically spent summer break grounded. And while I respect 373 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: the hard time you have done, we're quickly approaching year three. 374 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,479 Speaker 1: I know this is what I say. I say, am 375 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 1: I the only with the novel coronavirus? Am I? Am 376 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:36,679 Speaker 1: I the only one of us who thinks the novelty 377 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: has a well and truly worn off. I mean, that's 378 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: that's gonna material right there. Um, yeah, I got h 379 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: I think I have a booster coming up. So that's 380 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: exciting to get those boosters. Right. All right, let's take 381 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: a quick break. We're gonna see if we can't track 382 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: down Robert Evans, and we will be right back. And 383 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 1: we're back. And so I guess everybody knew this already. 384 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 1: I just it gave me hope that we might be 385 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: seeing some ship in the gil A Maxwell trial after 386 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, heading into it, I was like, oh, 387 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 1: gonna let ship anything drop right, like the you know 388 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: they killed Epstein, Like why would they let her come 389 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: out and say the ship? But yeah, in court yesterday, 390 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: one of the pilots of the Lolita express. Yeah, like 391 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,400 Speaker 1: to the to the point that Jeffrey Epstein like put 392 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: his kids through college, like literally like paid their tuition, 393 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: bought him a home with like acres in New Mexico. 394 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: So he was on those flights, said he had seen 395 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: Clinton and Prince Andrew, which had gotten like most of 396 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: the attention and which I think we had seen on 397 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: flight lugs, but also confirmed having seen Donald Trump on 398 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: the flights. The pilot claims he never saw underage girls 399 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: without their parents or knew of any sexual activity happening 400 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: on the plane. But just because she's calling him daddy 401 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: doesn't mean she's his parents. Yeah, it's noisy in a 402 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 1: jet with the door closed to the cockpit. And also 403 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: Jeffy had so many daughters, right, and it's probably pretty 404 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: incriminating if he did know about that, So you know reason, 405 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,679 Speaker 1: I just imagine them at the front like a school 406 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 1: bus driver, just being liked. She quite back there. Yeah, 407 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: that first day though, it's wild, like because Maxwell's lawyer 408 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: came out fucking swinging. She was like, Yo, they're trying 409 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: to make her escapego fam just because Epstein's dead, they 410 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: had to put the attention on somebody else. And then 411 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: like the the prosecutors had to keep objecting every time 412 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: she's like she's a scapegoat into like objection or they'd 413 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: be like she's a stand in for Jeffrey Epstein. They're 414 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 1: like objection, We see what you're trying to do. Then 415 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 1: like dragging the victims too. Yeah, So that's the like 416 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: the part of their strategy that I was at least, 417 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: you know, I thought I thought there might be some 418 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: promise for us finding out some ship is that it 419 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,880 Speaker 1: seems like they're going to make the case that she 420 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: was like one of Epstein's victims, basically, like she was 421 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: being manipulated by him, And like, if that is the strategy, 422 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 1: which it seems like it is at least partially the strategy, 423 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 1: you know, that would it does seem like they would 424 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 1: want to prove like that all the all the powerful 425 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 1: influence that he had over powerful people, because that would 426 00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: make him more unfunck with able. So don't know, that's 427 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 1: That's what I'm hoping, is that they kind of developed 428 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 1: that and they're like, yeah, I mean he told me 429 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: he had compromising material on Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, Right, 430 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 1: if you're fully gonna like dish it off, the bad 431 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 1: guy roll to the even bigger bad guy. I mean, 432 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: you would have to do that otherwise. I don't think 433 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: the strategy as it is, being like, oh, one of 434 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: the accusers like does drugs. It's like she was no angel, right, no, literally, 435 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 1: and then you know she said like off the top, 436 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:33,200 Speaker 1: she was like since the Dawn of Adam, and Eve 437 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: said ever since Adam, ever since Eve was accused of 438 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: tempting Adam with the apple, women have been blamed for 439 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 1: men's bad behavior. So that was a bit of a 440 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 1: yeah that they're they're trying hurt her. Defense is trying 441 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: a lot of different strategies. Pretty strong comparison there. Yeah, no, 442 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 1: for sure, I totally, but I think at this point 443 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: when it's like ever since one man stood up and 444 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 1: was crucified for fucking underage girls, people have been trying 445 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 1: to bring down a periful guy with powerful ideas. My 446 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: name is Jeffrey Epstein, and I am like Jesus, thank you, 447 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: thank you here all right. So this is all to say, 448 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: we'll be keeping an eye on that trial, probably updating 449 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: you if anything interesting. Hip. Yeah, the Democrats. Speaking of interesting, 450 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: it seems like they finally have their priority straight. They 451 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: are going after bots, yeah, bots, You say, what the 452 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: fund is a bot? And why in the middle of 453 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: a pandemic and and rapid exponential income inequality, why are 454 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 1: we focusing on bots? And that's the changing the climate? Miles, 455 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 1: thank you, right. The bots are the ones that are 456 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: preventing the the build back Better act from getting past. 457 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 1: So let's put it this like this. If you've tried 458 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: to buy a p S five or Xbox Series X 459 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: and in video, g f G Force r t X card, 460 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 1: Beyonce is Ivy Park apparel, or even Pokemon cards on 461 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: the internet, chances are you have been greeted with some 462 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,959 Speaker 1: ship that says sold out and you're asking yourself, but 463 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: I logged in at the time that the stuff was 464 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: supposed to drop and be available, and I clicked everything, 465 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 1: I put it in my card and under a minute 466 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: and it was still sold out. How can that be? Well, 467 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 1: that's because of the reselling markets use of bots, and 468 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 1: basically they're just like computer programs that are able to 469 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: add items to cards with all the needed payment and 470 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 1: like shipping information like instantaneously. So like you're just getting 471 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 1: beat technologically to to just put these things in a 472 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: cart and process of transaction. So then scalpers and resellers 473 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: take ship like to eBay or stock x and sell 474 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: it for you know, huge markup and make a lot 475 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 1: of money. There's a story about a sixteen year old 476 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 1: kid who did one point seven million dollars in revenue 477 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: by reselling PS five and all kinds of ship that 478 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: he was using bots for and only his profit though 479 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: only a thousand. Okay, so leave them alone where you 480 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: can getting that seed money from. I think, look, you 481 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: probably you know. I mean, if you start real small, right, 482 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: you get one PS five and you sell it for double. 483 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,479 Speaker 1: Now you got double, and you pour that back into 484 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: two PS five that you can get with bots, and 485 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: then you double. I mean there's you know, I just 486 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: gotta start and it's flashboys. But with PS five it's 487 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 1: like saying he only so he put in one point 488 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: six million and made one. I think like that that 489 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: suggests that at some point he had one point six 490 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: million dollars. I think that was his net revenue. So 491 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's that's just basically I think 492 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,439 Speaker 1: over when you add up everything that he's sold and 493 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: then taking off like recouping cut yea that I don't 494 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: know how numbers work me either, and it doesn't matter. 495 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: But that's why Representatives Paul Tonko of New York, rich 496 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 1: Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, Chuck Schumer, and Ben Ray 497 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 1: Luhan of New Mexico they have all announced they're pushing 498 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: for the Stop grinch Bots Act, Like, Okay, what the 499 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: fun is this? This is some ship that's been kicking 500 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 1: around the hill like a couple of years. But specifically, 501 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: the Stopping grinch Bots Act would expand on a law 502 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: past in that outlawed bots from circumventing control measures to 503 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: put tickets to like music concerts and sports like essentially 504 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 1: just say making it illegal for scalpers to resell tickets 505 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: like this, and this legislation that they're pushing now would 506 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: essentially take say this applies now to all online retail sites. 507 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: So if you're a sneaker head, you're like, oh, ship, 508 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: look at that, I might have a chance at getting 509 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: a sneaker or if you munch a Pokemon card or 510 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: fuck it. Even sometimes you see restaurant reservations go up 511 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: instantly because people use bots to even get restaurant reservations. 512 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: So you know it would be really bad is if 513 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: they use these to vote. Yeah, well look, yeah, we 514 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: should stop it before they can do that. Yeah, one 515 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 1: thing at a time, when we got to get in 516 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: early on this problem. So, I mean, I think this 517 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: on one level, you're like, Okay, that's interesting, but this 518 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: also feels like a real low effort attempt to make 519 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: it seem like the already's doing something and like that. 520 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: Like that, there's like, yeah, we get a supply chain 521 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: stuff like you're we're here complaints from parents trying to 522 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: get certain things, and it's these fucking bots, you know, 523 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: So we're gonna handle that and vote blue no matter who. Huh. 524 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: All right, they'll always they'll always act when it's in 525 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: the interest of like people spending money, consumerism, like making 526 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: consumer culture, like unless it's like consumer protections, it's like 527 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: that weird fine line. It's like, we're gonna make it 528 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: easier for you to give away your money, but we're 529 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: gonna make it hardest fun to get your money back. Right. 530 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: It's like a like a fucking like an old school 531 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: like wooden fish trap where it's like they get in 532 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: but it can't come out. Yeah, I mean a teenager 533 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: making money on the internet, that's uh, that could be 534 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: a big problem. We don't do something about it. Absolutely, 535 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: what what's not dollars? That's that's absurd. No, but a 536 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: child should not be being that much money, you know, 537 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: that's the that's adult money, adult money for for billionaires. 538 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: Like he's not he's not paying he can't be paying 539 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: taxes on that's you know, that's like a grand the 540 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: government's missing out on. Selfish teenager. Quit asking if I'm 541 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: looking at my ask this young man where the thud 542 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: came from? I R yeah, it's you know, it could 543 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: be cool if if online sales worked better. I feel 544 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: like it's maybe like the five hundred priority that they 545 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: should be paying attention to right now generously. Oh yeah. 546 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: But again that's why it just feels like one of 547 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: those things that eat real easy win because like Chuck 548 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: Schumer's words, or even like it shouldn't be so hard 549 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: during the holidays to get the gifts that you need 550 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 1: to make memories. You know, it's like this, like I 551 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: give a fuck energy when it's not has nothing to 552 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 1: do with this, and I think it helps give me money, 553 00:30:55,440 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: give me money, extended unemployment benefits. Okay, shut the funk up. 554 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: I said, we're going to handle the box right now 555 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: and then maybe we'll talk' gonna make sure you get 556 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: your slippers in time. The slippers that you ordered, you 557 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: gotta get them, especially because you know that was on 558 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: Oprah's list, so we can't look around and have that 559 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: not be available. Oprah, We'll take this country down. Well, 560 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: speaking of Oprah taking this country down, actually the next 561 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: story has nothing to do with that, although doctor Oz 562 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: has announced for that he's running for Senate, so that 563 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: could be Oprah taking this country down down the path 564 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: of victory, because yeah, doctor Oz is a hero, personal 565 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,239 Speaker 1: hero of mine, one of the greats to ever do it, 566 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 1: one of the greatest doctors, one of the greatest doctors. 567 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: He is actually good doctor who just got phil Oz 568 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: Drew Gupta, the classic doctors Doctor Oz. The biggest tragedy 569 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: of doctor Oz is he was actually like one of 570 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: the nation's top heart surgeons and gave that up to 571 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: go do this bullshit. Well now he's now he's in 572 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: the nation's hearts.

Like why and like 580 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: just watching people in the hut. He's like, oh wow, 581 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: self cleaning oven right with like a stage sized model 582 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: of the vagina that you could walk through. That's sick. 583 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: I clean my oven with a Lisaul Douche. I put 584 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 1: some res eve in my oven after I don't want 585 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 1: it to get pregnant. I don't want to get a 586 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: butt in there. There you go. I mean, that's stupid. 587 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: That's fucking stupid. I'm sorry, guys, that's stupid. Actually, probably 588 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: where doctor I was came up with the other metaphor 589 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: was people talking about getting a button in the oven. 590 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 1: I should be making more money. I should be making 591 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: that doctor os money. All right, let's talk about the 592 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: repub Gin's real quick, because they are threatening to, you know, 593 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: hold the funding for the government hostage and shut the 594 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: government down pretty soon. I think I'm Friday. And their 595 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:16,479 Speaker 1: main complaint is Biden's vaccine and testing mandates and so 596 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: that made me ask, like, do they think this is 597 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: a winner? Like for them, I know it's popular with 598 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: a small number, like a small portion of their base, 599 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: but you know, as as we've seen just in overall 600 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: numbers and pulling and also how people react with regards 601 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: to like school board votes and stuff, being pro recklessness 602 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: when it comes to the vaccine, isn't very popular. All 603 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 1: evidence that you that's like undeniable. Like there's just a 604 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: televangelist leader of the day Star television network, which I'm 605 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: hoping they came up with after the first season of 606 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: Succession because it rhymes with the Succession company. But he 607 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: called the vaccine a sin, you know, pitched alternative methods 608 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: of treating it. He just died of COVID. So it 609 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: just seems like there's kind of the And then also 610 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: Trump reportedly tested positive before his debate with Biden, before 611 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,720 Speaker 1: he went and met with a room full of gold 612 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: Star families, before he like went to a bunch of 613 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: different events and spoke and you know, we we kind 614 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,280 Speaker 1: of suspected this at the time, but it also feels 615 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 1: like a different lifetime, a lifetime ago. But yeah, September 616 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: dial it back for once that helicicious time. But I 617 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: mean the whole thing with this too is in terms 618 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 1: of like messaging the the anti mandate vax crew, they're 619 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 1: just they just beat that. They just beat the administration 620 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: to like the punch of being like no, we're gonna 621 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 1: get in everybody's head that this is ridiculous, this is 622 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,760 Speaker 1: too much, This is like this is the opposite of safe. 623 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: This is actually like bad because the polling around it 624 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: is like it's it's it's not even a majority. Like 625 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,919 Speaker 1: if you ask at this point, if in a pull 626 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: of all adults, only forty seven percent favor like a 627 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:18,799 Speaker 1: max A vaccine mandate and opposed. So I'm sure on 628 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,879 Speaker 1: some level conservatives look at that number go okay, that's 629 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: something there. And then within their party seven when the 630 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 1: Republicans seventy seven opposed, within Democrats eight opposed, So it's 631 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 1: splitting down party race. All that lines pretty pretty predictably. 632 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: But I think it's it's a it's a weird one 633 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: to do because you know, we have a new variant 634 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: that may be something to be concerned about. Plus just 635 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: whatever happens with an inevitable winter surge of infections, if 636 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 1: people are still going to be like yeah, yeah, it's fine, 637 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 1: it's fine, it's fine. This is what I'm fighting. I 638 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 1: just don't understand like the hypocrisy, Like I can't wrap 639 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: my brain around like, Okay, so Trump boasts that he's 640 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 1: the reason we have this vaccine, but you guys are 641 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: still like it doesn't under saying like it does just 642 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 1: not nothing makes sense, Like the Republicans are are vaccinated, 643 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: but you're there's you're listening to them telling you not to. 644 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: Like I I'm at this point where I just like 645 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 1: I am at a loss or how you can possibly 646 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,879 Speaker 1: communicate with with people at this point right, Like it's 647 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,360 Speaker 1: almost just like there is no communicating with this crazy 648 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: sector of the country who literally is just defying logic 649 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 1: at every turn and like constantly has no problem with 650 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,919 Speaker 1: like contradicting themselves just to like be able to claim 651 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 1: freedom at the end of the day. You know, it's 652 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 1: just this weird fucking mindset that there's no talking to. Well, 653 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 1: it's because I think that's the part is like it 654 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,399 Speaker 1: really isn't about logic. It's just about like rhetorically that 655 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: I'm not doing what you say, So it doesn't matter 656 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 1: if you understand why I'm saying that the fact is, 657 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,879 Speaker 1: I'm just you're just you're you're you're Joe Biden. I'm 658 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: just philosophically opposed to everything. And then even then, but 659 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 1: it's even funny because you have people be like, well, yeah, 660 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: the vaccine is good, but not everybody needs to take it, 661 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,919 Speaker 1: and some people they're getting sick and they're like, congress person, 662 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: aren't you fully vaccinated? They're like, sup, this this messaging 663 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: works for this specific group of people. I'm trying to 664 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 1: get on the opposite end of the spectrum. So they 665 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: opposed Joe Biden, and I will turn and say something 666 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 1: different to maybe people who aren't as resistant to vaccines 667 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: and don't pivot to something like think of the kids 668 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:27,919 Speaker 1: and like how they got to wear masks and they're 669 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: so confused because this mask wearing it's just it's just terrible, 670 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: they I am saying. It starts to break through with 671 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 1: I think it's just people's general being exhausted by like 672 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: worn down by the pandemic, and they're like, well, we're 673 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:48,479 Speaker 1: gonna do another lockdown that really worked last time. It's like, well, 674 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: this is kind of a yeah, like you don't know, yeah, 675 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 1: but I'm seeing that break more mainstream the the idea 676 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 1: of like this is bullshit, Like we're not doing another 677 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:08,720 Speaker 1: lockdown because another vaccine. Nothing happened to me. It's also 678 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: crazy to me that like people don't realize this is 679 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,359 Speaker 1: the same ship that's happening all around the world, Like 680 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 1: so many of these people make it seem like watching 681 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 1: the US government is trying to control you, and it's like, bro, 682 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: every fucking country in the world is literally having the 683 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: same exact conversations, and there are other countries that are 684 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,760 Speaker 1: far stricter than hours, and they're not all com communist countries. 685 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 1: Like it doesn't make I don't understand how people can 686 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: be this much in their own bubble to not realize 687 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: those things. You know, that's America though right there, you know, 688 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: no no understanding of the rest of the world, how 689 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 1: that relates to what you have or where you are. 690 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: You live quite literally in your bubble of what you 691 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: can see directly in front of you. Because people who 692 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 1: I know who are anti vacs, they say the same ship, 693 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 1: which is always relying on anecdotal information. That's pretty much 694 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,879 Speaker 1: like even people who seem like more reasonable that our 695 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: anti vacs are, like women to be real like, I 696 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: don't know anybody who's gotten and gotten really that sick. 697 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 1: Like the people who I know, like they were sick 698 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,840 Speaker 1: for a little bit, but it wasn't that bad. So 699 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. And then they're like, oh, actually this 700 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: person that like whose butcher story, we go to the 701 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 1: guy there died, right, So now you do know someone's like, 702 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 1: but maybe that won't change your mind because maybe because 703 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 1: you didn't know him personally enough. That's that that's just 704 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: the weird thing where it's just you know, and I 705 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:26,399 Speaker 1: get it. It's fucking scary for people to think that 706 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: they have no control over their safety like whatsoever. So 707 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: for and I'm sure there's another group to whether they 708 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: might you know, might not be straight up conservatives, just 709 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,759 Speaker 1: more of a mindset of like denial about their lack 710 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,880 Speaker 1: of control over something and the only way they can 711 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,879 Speaker 1: operate is to just actively deny that they're in any 712 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: kind of danger. Yeah, there's a new study making the 713 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 1: rounds on social media as yesterday. That's about how like 714 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,400 Speaker 1: it's a new study and quotes it's basically an abstract 715 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: the people of copy and pasted saying that mr NA 716 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: vaccines have linked to heart disease, and so now like 717 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 1: Reuters and all the all the respectable journalistic institutions or 718 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 1: have to jump on top of it and be like 719 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 1: that's actually there's no evidence for that, like that study 720 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 1: doesn't have any evidence. But it's just it does feel 721 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 1: a little bit like this is what America wants to 722 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 1: believe so badly that you're you're just like you know, 723 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 1: trying to hand out speeding tickets at the Indy five 724 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 1: type thing. It's just like this ship is You're gonna 725 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 1: believe this because you want to believe this. But yeah, 726 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 1: it's a it's a really good point. I can't remember 727 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:38,360 Speaker 1: who it was, but I was listening to somebody interviewed 728 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: talking about being in Paris for the the beginning of 729 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: the pandemic and just you know, they were four weeks 730 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:55,239 Speaker 1: into lockdown and watching Americans be like, funk this this 731 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 1: doesn't like this is this is made up? Like you 732 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 1: guys made this ship up and him being like that 733 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: doesn't huh, Like we're we've been in it too, and 734 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 1: nobody over here thinks it's made up. But yeah, that's 735 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,399 Speaker 1: a not not the most not the best to kind 736 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: of seeing the big picture. I guess no, And I 737 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 1: think to the even like this idea of the messaging 738 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: around mandates, and clearly like the anti side got you know, 739 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 1: they got in a frenzy over it. It's like I'm like, 740 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 1: I don't even know what the administration could have done 741 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 1: given the state of things in the United in the 742 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 1: in the US, but like you're damn sure could have 743 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 1: messaged harder to be like this is what happens. Here 744 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,360 Speaker 1: are some little graphics so you understand, ship, here's what happened. 745 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,319 Speaker 1: This is why you have to actually this is how 746 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 1: you're going to get out of a pandemic or things 747 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:46,839 Speaker 1: like that. And I know there were you know, there 748 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:50,399 Speaker 1: were presentations here and there, but you know, I think 749 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: their allies on places like CNN and MSNBC, we're just 750 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,760 Speaker 1: kind of spending more time being like do you believe 751 00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: these assholes who are like want a lockdown that that's 752 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,799 Speaker 1: not going to compel somebody who's on the fence, Like 753 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 1: rather than being like the coverage being around the safety 754 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 1: of it, what will happen, like how you can how 755 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: this is a way to ensure people's safety. And because 756 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 1: it just became more like, oh, these these people don't 757 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: get it. Or whatever, and yeah, we talk about that 758 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: to an extent here, but it's it's interesting how when 759 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 1: you have all those tools at your disposed as a 760 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:27,680 Speaker 1: as an administered as a presidential administration, that you completely 761 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 1: just you know, the best you can do is get 762 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 1: Olivia Rodrigo to like say a couple of things like 763 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:39,040 Speaker 1: come on, yeah exactly, shout out to Roger go. But 764 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,360 Speaker 1: it's like it's just further proof of how terrible the 765 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: Democrats really are messaging all around. And also just like 766 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: liberal media doubles down on that by turning the news 767 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,200 Speaker 1: into like gossip TV and just like half of their 768 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 1: newscast is spent pulling up clips with Fox News and 769 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:57,239 Speaker 1: then commentating on it. You know what I mean, It's 770 00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,879 Speaker 1: like you're not actually giving people information. You're just sitting 771 00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:02,360 Speaker 1: there like making a fucking reaction video that like a 772 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:04,760 Speaker 1: like a YouTuber would do essentially. You know, That's what's 773 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,359 Speaker 1: I think they're They're failing to actually give people real 774 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 1: information and things like that. Yeah, it's based on the 775 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 1: myth and like reinforcing the myth that people who believe 776 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: liberal things are smarter than people who believe conservative things, 777 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 1: and just that being the end goal of their coverage 778 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: is like, look at these idiots, right, but we're smart, 779 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 1: and it's just like, actually, you guys, here is too. 780 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,800 Speaker 1: First of all, we're all idiots, but that's that's definitely 781 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 1: not the point. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I do just 782 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 1: want to talk about like the Trump story. This is 783 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 1: not that this will have any effect on his ability 784 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: to just storm back to the White House in four 785 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 1: but he did have COVID D tested positive for COVID 786 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:54,919 Speaker 1: days in advance of the Biden debate, which obviously him 787 00:43:54,960 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 1: putting Joe Biden's old asset at endanger probably will just 788 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: make people on the Republican inside like him more. But 789 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 1: he also attended an indoor meeting with gold Star families 790 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,759 Speaker 1: literally the day after he tested positive, and that is 791 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:15,440 Speaker 1: that's the meeting that he claimed had given him COVID. 792 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: So not only did he put them at risk, he 793 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 1: claimed that they gave it to him even though he 794 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 1: had already tested positive. And he said specifically that they 795 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,759 Speaker 1: were these people, they were within an inch of my face. 796 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,799 Speaker 1: Sometimes they want to hug me, they want to kiss me, 797 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: and they do, and frankly, I'm not telling them to 798 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 1: back up. So and that's not that's not you improvising 799 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: right there. That's a quote, leg that's a quote. That's 800 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 1: a word for word. He said that. And he is 801 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 1: again describing a meeting he had with the families of 802 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,280 Speaker 1: fallen soldiers the day after he tested positive for COVID. 803 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:57,360 Speaker 1: Uh that people were inches from his face and you know, 804 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 1: he he was willing to kiss and hug them, but 805 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 1: they gave it to him, right or right, even though 806 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 1: he had already tested positive. But anyways, and then just 807 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 1: the other thing, we're going to get into doctors a 808 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 1: little bit more in the coming days. But I think 809 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: that's another example of like people reading the tea leaves 810 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:19,279 Speaker 1: and being like, damn, then Americans really want this COVID 811 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 1: thing to be like a hoax, and they want to 812 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:27,480 Speaker 1: they like I think he recognizes like he's the doctor 813 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 1: who's willing to be anti vax and you know, entertain 814 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 1: ANTIAX perspectives, and so it seems weird that he's like 815 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 1: running for senate at the same time. Something in the 816 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,360 Speaker 1: culture and then there's like guy has made him be like, yeah, 817 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 1: it's my time right now. He's yeah, he's just a 818 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,239 Speaker 1: thirsty stunt queen who happens to be a doctor. That's 819 00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:52,480 Speaker 1: really what it is, because it's not it's not he's 820 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 1: never being guided by his education as a doctor. It's 821 00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,719 Speaker 1: always like, how am I going to be famous? How 822 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 1: am I going to make my profile? How am I 823 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 1: gonna increase that even further? And if I got yeah, 824 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,120 Speaker 1: if I gotta say, I love hydroxy Clark Quinn and 825 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 1: let's gum. I mean, it's the same things as Trump. 826 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 1: He was just like a rich dude who wants to 827 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 1: be a celebrity, you know, and like the ultimate celebrity 828 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:16,719 Speaker 1: in the world is going to be the president of 829 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 1: the United States, you know. So I think doctor Oz 830 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 1: is taking up you know, a page out of his playbook. 831 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 1: But I mean I remember when Doctor Oz on the 832 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 1: Breakfast UBB and he was talking about quarantining from his family. 833 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:27,879 Speaker 1: So I mean, like, are you really you know, it's 834 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:29,840 Speaker 1: like I like, all this ship is available, you know 835 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like it's all documented people's perspectives and 836 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,439 Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, and you know, unfortunately people 837 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:37,839 Speaker 1: are too I don't want to say dumb, but man, 838 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 1: dumb to not look up you know a lot of 839 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,719 Speaker 1: this stuff and improve him wrong. I think, yeah, I 840 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 1: think there's this weird duality that a lot of people have, 841 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 1: especially in the West, as it relates to like the media, right, 842 00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:50,920 Speaker 1: Like there's this weird thing that be as if being 843 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 1: on TV legitimizes every single fucking thing you say, because 844 00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 1: it's like in the back of your mind, it's like, well, 845 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 1: they can't be on t V just lying about the 846 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:05,360 Speaker 1: ship on TV. That's how you're on TV. Like it's 847 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 1: like fucking grad school or some ship. Like there's no 848 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 1: way you could just stumble upon TV. But that is 849 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 1: the case. And at the same time, they're like people, 850 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 1: a lot of people are grappling with some things being 851 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 1: legitimized merely because they've been presented to them on TV 852 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:24,280 Speaker 1: and other things also being total bullshit because it's on TV. 853 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,799 Speaker 1: So there's like a lot of people holding to like 854 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,439 Speaker 1: reality sort of in their minds at the same time, 855 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: because I think that is a thing we see just 856 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,399 Speaker 1: even with Donald Trump, like people were like, well, he's 857 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,920 Speaker 1: on TV, he's rich, Like I mean, this dude wouldn't 858 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:40,480 Speaker 1: have done shit if he wasn't on TV. So shout 859 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 1: out to uh, shout out to the real Kingmaker TV, 860 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 1: because I mean, yeah, Katahey was almost run you know, 861 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 1: like there's just so much. We just love it. We 862 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 1: just love the TV. We thought we were getting television, 863 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:56,400 Speaker 1: but television got us. Let's from a quiz game. Quiz 864 00:47:56,480 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 1: show was that Ray Finds and John two tur Yeah, 865 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:07,319 Speaker 1: that ship is really good if people like kind. I 866 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 1: missed it when it first came out. I thought it 867 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:12,040 Speaker 1: was like just like a lame kind of history movie. 868 00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:14,239 Speaker 1: But that ship was really good. My mom took me 869 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 1: to the theater to see that ship. Yeah, that's why 870 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 1: I remember so vividly Jared Tall and I was like, 871 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:24,360 Speaker 1: what the fuck was this? Ara? This is real? Yeah, alright, 872 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll be right back, and 873 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:37,959 Speaker 1: we're back, and we do you know, we were talking 874 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 1: about how Matthew McConaughey was pulling better than either candidate 875 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:48,920 Speaker 1: in the Texas governor's race, and he had voiced, you know, 876 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 1: interest in running for governor. It feels very much like, 877 00:48:54,880 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 1: you know, if he was flirting with somebody, like just 878 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 1: in a friendly way and they were like, we're gonna 879 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 1: get married. Like loves me. Yeah, It's just like, you know, 880 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 1: politics is like the star power here is off the charts, right, 881 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,719 Speaker 1: He's into it. Let's get him in. Let's get him 882 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,919 Speaker 1: in here, and he was just like, oh no, sorry, 883 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,359 Speaker 1: I was I wasn't serious about that. It's basically where 884 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 1: we're at. Yeah, he I think while many were like, 885 00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 1: oh wow, look at that. He's putting the smash on 886 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 1: Greg Abbott, he definitely he had to announce, okay that 887 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 1: he's as much as y'all wanted it, he might not 888 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:37,280 Speaker 1: be able to deliver. He just tweeted from his Twitter 889 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 1: account an American flag emoji with this video clip, Hey everybody, 890 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 1: mca hey here. Let's Over the past two years, I've 891 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:47,560 Speaker 1: been working on the answer to the question of how 892 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,320 Speaker 1: I can be most useful in this life going forward. 893 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 1: Useful to myself. You spoked to my family into the 894 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:56,160 Speaker 1: most amount of people, one category of service. I've been 895 00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,440 Speaker 1: exploring his politics. I've been considering a run for the 896 00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:02,920 Speaker 1: governor Texas. I've been listening. I've been learning and measuring, 897 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:07,760 Speaker 1: been studying Texas politics and American politics. What have I learned? 898 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:13,520 Speaker 1: A lot? That we have some problems we need to fix, 899 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:19,640 Speaker 1: that are politics needs new purpose, that we have divides 900 00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:25,279 Speaker 1: that need healing, Okay, I mean trust in our lives. 901 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:29,320 Speaker 1: He's shining a light on our ship, the cross party lines, 902 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 1: the ones that build bridges instead of burn them, but 903 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 1: our children, Margaret's assets. So hey, let's because good apparents 904 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:42,359 Speaker 1: as we can be okay, all right? Anyway, So all 905 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 1: that to say like that that's a three minute long video. 906 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 1: Does he eventually say, but I'm not going to run? 907 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,919 Speaker 1: What is all that to be? Like? But I'm off 908 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 1: this look, and I think that's what we should I 909 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 1: think we should have expected nothing less from Matthew McConaughey 910 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:03,680 Speaker 1: because he loves a monologue. He loves a monologue, which 911 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 1: I'm also surprised. That's all you get to do when 912 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:10,239 Speaker 1: you're politician. That's what he thought he would only get 913 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 1: to do is is the governor though, you know, right? 914 00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 1: And then the second he's like, he's like, I don't know, 915 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 1: I feel like people should decide if they want the 916 00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:22,040 Speaker 1: vaccine be like what you talking about? All right? Um? 917 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 1: Not just it's not just one way monologue like I thought. 918 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,320 Speaker 1: So yeah, all that to say is he was just saying, 919 00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:30,360 Speaker 1: you know, he's a simple man, and you want he 920 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:34,799 Speaker 1: considered the path of political leadership and it's humbling, but 921 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:37,960 Speaker 1: he's deciding to not take it at this moment um, 922 00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 1: so he's not going to be filling his sweat soaked 923 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:45,279 Speaker 1: workout bandana into the ring. Do we think that his 924 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:48,640 Speaker 1: people that were behind him are going to go to Beato. 925 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 1: Beato definitely had worse numbers against him, so that could 926 00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,800 Speaker 1: suggest that there's like more room to grow with like 927 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:02,839 Speaker 1: on hey leaving the race. But it also feels like, 928 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:06,160 Speaker 1: I mean, like, hey, look, he tried, man, he tried, 929 00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 1: Beto tried. I don't know if there's he's going to 930 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:14,399 Speaker 1: get some better strategicy behind his campaign to try and make, 931 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 1: you know, get a different result. But I mean it 932 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 1: feels like I think you've we've we've rang that rag 933 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,080 Speaker 1: dry whatever you're gonna get out of Beto ork in 934 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 1: terms of you know, his his ability to like win 935 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:29,279 Speaker 1: in Texas. I know a lot of people support him, 936 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:33,840 Speaker 1: but it just seems like there may maybe some newer ideas. 937 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, I think generally that's just the 938 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:40,920 Speaker 1: problem with people running Democrats is like it's there's there 939 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 1: aren't many exciting like you know, in terms of like 940 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,879 Speaker 1: spotlighted candidates, there's not a lot that you're like, oh 941 00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:50,879 Speaker 1: maybe that got to know it seems to be coming 942 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 1: from like the newer generation of younger politicians that have 943 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:57,400 Speaker 1: like something a little bit different to offer. Well, who 944 00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,239 Speaker 1: who else is running? Right? This is the selections gonna 945 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:04,280 Speaker 1: the primary is gonna be marched first next year. Yeah, 946 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 1: I mean I think it's gonna be Beto or Abbott. 947 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 1: And you know, as a podcast, we haven't decided who 948 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:15,359 Speaker 1: we're going to officially endorse indoors there. Yeah, I mean 949 00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, Beto obviously the lesser of two evils, 950 00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:24,399 Speaker 1: the far lesser of two evils. So hopefully people do 951 00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:27,160 Speaker 1: kind of get in line behind him. I just don't 952 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 1: know like how much enthusiasm there's going to be for 953 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:33,640 Speaker 1: right for him at this point. But I mean, I 954 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:37,680 Speaker 1: don't know if uh, let's see, I think is July 955 00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:41,880 Speaker 1: and cashtro My, how don't he might run? Okay? So 956 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:44,759 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, he used to be the mayor 957 00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 1: of San Antonio. I think he might have a he 958 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:50,399 Speaker 1: might who knows, he could have a good shot. It's 959 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,160 Speaker 1: I think when you just look at sort of the 960 00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:56,320 Speaker 1: politics there and like the way campaigns are going to 961 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:59,640 Speaker 1: be running, it's hard to really imagine like rhetorically what 962 00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 1: this is gonna look like and who's going to be 963 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:04,800 Speaker 1: best suited when you're like, when you're debating someone who's 964 00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:11,239 Speaker 1: like books make little white kids feel bad, change my mind, right, 965 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 1: And you know that's sort of where the limits are 966 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:17,200 Speaker 1: of the discourse. Yeah, I mean, as important as that 967 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 1: race as we do, have to move on to an 968 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:24,880 Speaker 1: even more important state based competition, and that is, of course, 969 00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:28,920 Speaker 1: America's favorite Christmas candy, brought to you by Candy store 970 00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 1: dot Com. It is a you know, another one of 971 00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 1: those sounds they're giving a ship. It's a bad map. 972 00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,960 Speaker 1: Fuck these maps.

Yeah, but it's uh, 979 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:06,760 Speaker 1: they did ask twenty three thousand people from across America 980 00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:10,560 Speaker 1: what their favorite candy was, and then you know, organize 981 00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:14,160 Speaker 1: that data based on state cross reference, sit with manufacturer 982 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 1: candy manufacturers to make sure sales back up the findings, 983 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 1: and it's you know it does feel like it's a 984 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:25,319 Speaker 1: little bit more like rather than the one the ones 985 00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 1: where every state has a different like candy that they like, 986 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,359 Speaker 1: which I feel like they it has been edited in 987 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:35,919 Speaker 1: order to make it as interesting as possible. Here, like 988 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 1: it's the answers are pretty like appropriately boring. It's peppermint 989 00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:47,759 Speaker 1: bark is like not is king?

The main ones 1002 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 1: you see are like Reese's cups, Sure, Reese's pieces like 1003 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 1: in the Little or Sorry Rece's pc uh in like 1004 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:37,000 Speaker 1: a candy cane form, like a plastic cone cane or 1005 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:41,680 Speaker 1: cane then like the holiday colored hershey kisses. This all 1006 00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:44,719 Speaker 1: ship that's normal, and the candy canes like whatever. That's like. 1007 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:46,239 Speaker 1: When I was a kid, I used to like him 1008 00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:48,200 Speaker 1: because I was like a free sugar that you could find, 1009 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 1: like available at a store. But it always remains me 1010 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 1: too much a toothpaste. It was just like, what what 1011 00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:59,319 Speaker 1: this is like a toothpaste popsicle? Oh? Look, they just 1012 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 1: hardened this toothpaste and put a little candy swirl around it. 1013 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:04,480 Speaker 1: They got me. It's like toothpaste, except it rots your 1014 00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:08,759 Speaker 1: teeth instead of cleaning them. My theory is that they 1015 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:12,480 Speaker 1: that peppermint bark has is they they called it like 1016 00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:15,879 Speaker 1: the hard charging peppermint bark because it's like taking over 1017 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:20,440 Speaker 1: a bunch of states that used to be Reese's Cup strongholds. 1018 00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: And they're saying that like it's the biggest grower, and 1019 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,520 Speaker 1: I'm I'm wondering if it's because they have all this 1020 00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:31,240 Speaker 1: equipment to make candy canes. But like most of the 1021 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 1: country has found out that there's other candy besides candy canes, 1022 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:37,800 Speaker 1: Like they don't think that that's the only Christmas candy. 1023 00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:40,080 Speaker 1: So they're like, all right, what if we dropped it 1024 00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:42,840 Speaker 1: and then just like picked up the pieces and gluted 1025 00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 1: onto like some low quality chocolate, Like that's how you 1026 00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 1: got something. I like peppermint Bark. It's funny because I 1027 00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 1: I haven't had the first time I had it was 1028 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 1: like seven years ago. Yeah, it's I was pretty ignorant 1029 00:57:56,000 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 1: to the peppermint bark game. It's a new kid. Yeah 1030 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,440 Speaker 1: it it's like, can we talk about the reindeer corn? 1031 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:07,240 Speaker 1: That's honestly, yeah, that's the one weird one. It's so weird. 1032 00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:10,240 Speaker 1: It's like candy. I've never heard of candy corn in 1033 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:14,919 Speaker 1: Christmas colors.

That one's gotten completely away from 1120 01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:39,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what the point is of it and 1121 01:03:39,560 --> 01:03:41,919 Speaker 1: how it relates to Christmas. I watched the other one 1122 01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:49,280 Speaker 1: with Jimmy oh Yang and Nina Dobrev kind of bailed 1123 01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 1: on it, like I do if I'm not working with it. 1124 01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:53,400 Speaker 1: By the end of the second act, I'm like, I 1125 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:56,000 Speaker 1: don't even see a third act. I'm off right because 1126 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,480 Speaker 1: I just like the vibes. And then I watched another 1127 01:03:58,520 --> 01:04:02,240 Speaker 1: one that was about Santa's daughter who avoid This one 1128 01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:07,360 Speaker 1: was well Santa's daughter. It's like treated like a Shakespearean thing, 1129 01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 1: where like they have to like she's almost being betrothed 1130 01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:15,320 Speaker 1: to the Jack Frost family in order for Santa and 1131 01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:18,600 Speaker 1: Frost to like have a tight bond. But then there 1132 01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 1: was also like talk of like teaming up with the 1133 01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:23,560 Speaker 1: tooth Ferry. It was a very bizarre thing. So her 1134 01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:25,720 Speaker 1: solution is just to go to college and trying to 1135 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:28,040 Speaker 1: be a regular person. Got I got it, And that 1136 01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 1: one was super all over the place. But overall, yeah, 1137 01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 1: I'm I'm fully in it. Is there are there any 1138 01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:36,600 Speaker 1: good Hallmark Ones tests coming out? Yeah?

There's usually more representation 1147 01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:13,360 Speaker 1: Lifetime Christmas movies than Hallmark. It's been cool that one 1148 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:16,720 Speaker 1: was okay. There was also like Boyfriends of Christmas Past, 1149 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:21,360 Speaker 1: which has an Asian American female protagonist in her love 1150 01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:26,080 Speaker 1: and tests are all multiple racist, so that was also cool.

It just still 1242 01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:32,960 Speaker 1: resonates with my childish brain. And you said that it's 1243 01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:35,880 Speaker 1: your favorite cameo of all time?

Yeah, 1249 01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:59,160 Speaker 1: they only let Trump onto that movie because they wanted 1250 01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:01,960 Speaker 1: to film in the plot. Like that was the stipulation. Yeah. 1251 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:05,799 Speaker 1: He was like, deal, if i'm if I can play Kevin, 1252 01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:09,679 Speaker 1: uh what I mean?

He passes me. We lock eyes. He realizes 1255 01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:21,120 Speaker 1: I'm him in the future. I realized that's me as 1256 01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:23,200 Speaker 1: a boy. And then we can go off on a 1257 01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:26,000 Speaker 1: whole other narrative where I'm the King of New York 1258 01:11:27,640 --> 01:11:30,679 Speaker 1: sticky bandits put him in jail for it, and there's 1259 01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:34,120 Speaker 1: a new home alone too with like like a little kid. 1260 01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:39,120 Speaker 1: It's on Disney.
