Speaker 1: radio president and now we've got one as our gatorial
Speaker 1: potential governor. We should have death squads for that group
Speaker 1: of people. Said too much? But what if? What if?
Speaker 1: Just for the radio shocks. You know, some of these
Speaker 1: old adages are overused. But there's a reason, there's a
Speaker 1: time and a place for a death squad, and I
Speaker 1: think it's hunting down everybody who was on the radio
Speaker 1: prior to and there are so now I could have
Speaker 1: been tricked into saying on this show that could easily
Speaker 1: come back to haunt me throughout the rest of my life.

Speaker 1: You dragged the booies down. You know what today is
Speaker 1: everybody speaking of things that are sad? Oh god, uh,
Speaker 1: it is the eighteenth anniversary of the death of my
Speaker 1: favorite songwriter, Mr Warren Zevon. I'm so sorry for your loss,
Speaker 1: everybody's loss. He was the best. I'm so sorry for
Speaker 1: our loss. What are some of his well his best
Speaker 1: known song is also his worst song, which is Where
Speaker 1: Works in London, which is a fine song, but it's
Speaker 1: not nearly his best. It's probably in London. But he
Speaker 1: also did play it all Night Long, which which includes
Speaker 1: the line there ain't much to country live in sweat,
Speaker 1: pisches and blood. He did a Lawyer's Guns and Money.
Speaker 1: He did roll in the Headless Thompson Gunner, a classic
Speaker 1: karma Alita, one of the best songs ever written about
Speaker 1: being on heroin and going through a breakup. Um, you know, Carmelita,
Speaker 1: Hold me Tighter. I think I'm sinking down and I'm
Speaker 1: all strung out on heroin on the outskirts of town.
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful piece of music. Are we going to
Speaker 1: start honoring the deaths of people we enjoy it. Just
Speaker 1: don't give a funk about anybody else. Yeah, keep Me
Speaker 1: in your heart for a while. Also a classic, My
Speaker 1: Ship's Fucked Up, one of the best songs about aging.
Speaker 1: He was a great musician, and I'm sad because he died.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the French in Hailer. Oh, such a good song.
Speaker 1: And yes, splendid isolation. I want to live all alone
Speaker 1: in the desert. I want to be like Georgia O'Keeffe.
Speaker 1: I want to stay on the Upper east Side and
Speaker 1: never go down to the street. Oh man, I love Zevon.
Speaker 1: H m hm, alright, p enjoy every sandwich. Al Right,
Speaker 1: what's the news? Nine eleven is coming up? It is
Speaker 1: Did something happen on that date? Four days after he
Speaker 1: lasted A couple of years earlier later it was two
Speaker 1: three he died. Oh you know what did happen? Right
Speaker 1: around September, the movie Big Trouble with Tim Allen came out.
Speaker 1: That must be that must be what it is, And
Speaker 1: nothing was ever the same afterwards. It really did, you
Speaker 1: know it really it really changed everything everything. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: that movie put together such a plausible picture of an
Speaker 1: airplane hijacking. We got the t s A in the
Speaker 1: Department of Phoneland Security. Never. I'll never forget that morning
Speaker 1: when it was released, when it was released, when Big Trouble,
Speaker 1: the adaptation of the Dave Barry book launched. Katie, Katie, Katie, girl,
Speaker 1: my love. You need to get up now, you need
Speaker 1: to see this, You need to see berries. Patrick Warburton
Speaker 1: is almost naked in several scenes, you know. And I
Speaker 1: look back on that morning and I regret being like,
Speaker 1: fuck you, Dad, But he was right. He was right
Speaker 1: in retrospect, surprising that that movie got us into Afghanistan.
Speaker 1: It's while, yeah, honestly inexcusable. Yeah, should we together? No,
Speaker 1: thank you? Yes, Katie should probably talking about Yeah, we've
Speaker 1: warmed up, we've vamped really really just delayed the inevitable.
Speaker 1: Should we talk about all the people dying from fentonel
Speaker 1: right now? Are we starting with that? Yeah, because it's
Speaker 1: it's short. So basically last week, three fairly prominent comedians
Speaker 1: died in a single night from tainted drugs. I don't
Speaker 1: think we know exactly what the drugs were. My guess
Speaker 1: as it was cocaine, maybe maybe k or something guessing
Speaker 1: much snort the powder yeah, um, but they got a
Speaker 1: tainted batch of drugs UM. And then very soon after
Speaker 1: they were at the same party. Yet they were at
Speaker 1: the same party UM. Soon after it was it was
Speaker 1: Michael Williams was Omar from the wire UM incredible actor
Speaker 1: UM died of an overdose in his apartment. And what's
Speaker 1: obviously it's not more concerning when rich people died than
Speaker 1: when poor able die. But when you start getting the
Speaker 1: kind of drugs that that people with money have access
Speaker 1: to showing up painted, it paints to a really significant
Speaker 1: issue with the supply chain because these are not people.
Speaker 1: These are not folks who are like buying ship under
Speaker 1: you know, a bridge or whatever. These are people generally
Speaker 1: probably buying from dealers they know, paying good money and
Speaker 1: used to getting stuff that is a high quality UM.
Speaker 1: And so if their ship is being cut with dangerous
Speaker 1: amounts of fentinlip points. And there's a number of reasons
Speaker 1: for this. One of them is that there's a shipload
Speaker 1: less UM boat traffic trade like trade because of the
Speaker 1: pandemic and stuff. There's a bunch of like supply chain issues,
Speaker 1: so there's a lot fewer places for drugs to get
Speaker 1: smuggled in UM, which I think is why stuff maybe
Speaker 1: stuff is getting cut more. I don't think we know entirely,
Speaker 1: but there is the fact that this is happening so
Speaker 1: much to people who generally are able to protect themselves
Speaker 1: from from that kind of from those kind of problems
Speaker 1: points to a release significantly supply chain issue and the
Speaker 1: only the closest thing to a solution. I'm not one
Speaker 1: of those people who thinks that you should just like say, hey,
Speaker 1: just don't do drugs and you'll be fine, because, like
Speaker 1: number one, if people are addicted to drugs, if you're
Speaker 1: addicted to heroin, you're you're gonna do. You're gonna do
Speaker 1: some fucking heroin and like understand the risk that comes
Speaker 1: with using the drug. Yeah, there's ways to mitigate the
Speaker 1: risks of fentinyl. One of them is um fentinyl test
Speaker 1: strips UM. There's a couple of different places where you
Speaker 1: can get fentenyl test strips. Unfortunately, they are not um
Speaker 1: as as easy to get as common as other kinds
Speaker 1: of test strips. There's there's a number of organizations, including
Speaker 1: Project Dance Safe, that that provide test strips to kind
Speaker 1: of make sure that whatever you're taking isn't adulterated with anything. UM.
Speaker 1: Fentnyl test strips are harder to get, they are available.
Speaker 1: One place you can go to try to get test
Speaker 1: strips is called test sure dot com. UM. You're gonna
Speaker 1: go to the section for re Agent test Kits UM
Speaker 1: and you can find a number of different test kits there. UM.
Speaker 1: You can look at UH the National Harm Reduction Coalition.
Speaker 1: They've got a fact sheet on the fentinyl test strip pilot. Again,
Speaker 1: it is harder to test for fentyl currently than you'd want,
Speaker 1: but there are a variety of testing kits available if
Speaker 1: you're if you're in it's not super expensive. If you're
Speaker 1: going to do fucking drugs, um, please take care of yourself.
Speaker 1: And this is at the moment kind of the the
Speaker 1: only real option I think most people have, other than
Speaker 1: making sure you have Narcan and doing if you're going
Speaker 1: to fucking shoot up heroin, do it with a buddy,
Speaker 1: you know, and make sure one of you as an ARCHAELA. Yeah, UM,
Speaker 1: thank you, Robert. That's all really good and important information
Speaker 1: to share. UM. This is probably a really naive question.
Speaker 1: I know that it is, but but um, are what
Speaker 1: are what? What are? No? UM? My question is fentanyl
Speaker 1: being cut into cocaine, something that we know as lethal,
Speaker 1: and people are doing it just to make money. Is
Speaker 1: this not something? Or is there are there times when
Speaker 1: it's not? You know what I mean? I I'm not
Speaker 1: enough of an expert on why why My my involvement
Speaker 1: allegedly in in industries adjacent to this was prior to
Speaker 1: fentanyl being super common, So I can't tell you. So
Speaker 1: I think some of it is just like cutting it
Speaker 1: to reduce costs. But also a lot of the people
Speaker 1: selling this ship um are not the ones cutting it.
Speaker 1: In other words, it would have gotten adulterated before it
Speaker 1: got to them. And you know the thing that that
Speaker 1: those dealers doing that irresponsible is not testing their ship.
Speaker 1: You just think that you'd see a train of a
Speaker 1: trail of people that have died from the second this
Speaker 1: product gets out into the bix you know you do?
Speaker 1: I mean again, three in a night from a single party. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there you go. It's part of it is that prior
Speaker 1: to it's getting worse, which is why you're seeing again
Speaker 1: rich people dropping um. But people have been dying, like
Speaker 1: Finnyl deaths as a result of tainted drugs have been
Speaker 1: increasing for a while. It's just been that's surrounded Tom
Speaker 1: Petty's death as well, I believe and Prince so everything.
Speaker 1: But I'm not positive about that. But I saw that.
Speaker 1: I think it was a prescription thing, but I actually, yeah,
Speaker 1: I I also do not know enough about that. That's
Speaker 1: my disclaimer. But I did see it referenced in an
Speaker 1: article discussing fentanyl, so perhaps on some level, but anyway,
Speaker 1: everything fake vic and laced with fentanyl. Yeah, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: And yeah, that's it's it's strong ship. Like I get
Speaker 1: why you would lace fake vikating with fentneyl which is
Speaker 1: that you can't get access to real viking and but
Speaker 1: you've got fentyl, which is for one thing, because fentinyl
Speaker 1: is so strong. Like always, the problem when you're talking
Speaker 1: about like smuggling this kind of ship is what's the
Speaker 1: what's the most potency you can transmit in the transport
Speaker 1: in the least amount of space, because that's easier to
Speaker 1: get away with, it's harder to get caught. You can
Speaker 1: get more dollar amount per amount of effort spent to
Speaker 1: smuggle it. So you know, if you're if you're taking
Speaker 1: finnyl and making it into pills, a lot of times
Speaker 1: people wouldn't necessarily notice that they're getting fitnyl instead of
Speaker 1: viking in um, and you're able to like transport more
Speaker 1: make more money. The problem is that like generally what
Speaker 1: it is, it's not. It's not that like any FENTONYL
Speaker 1: tainted pill is going to kill you. I'm sure he
Speaker 1: took a bunch of like fake viconons that were really
Speaker 1: fentanyl that we're fine, but you get a hot pill.
Speaker 1: You know, these are not being pressed medically under the
Speaker 1: question yes, okay, so it depends on yeah, okay, you
Speaker 1: can get what's noticed like a hot dose or a
Speaker 1: hot pill, which is just like because again, these are
Speaker 1: not being made under like lab conditions, like like the
Speaker 1: FENTONYL jip probably is being made in let, but the
Speaker 1: pills are not being pressed. Often they're being pressed in
Speaker 1: somebody's fucking house. Like there's people who do this and
Speaker 1: they funk up and you get um way too much.
Speaker 1: And because FENTONYL Finnel is so strong, so you can
Speaker 1: get a large dollar amount smuggled over um with less
Speaker 1: effort in taking up less space. But because it's so strong,
Speaker 1: if you give someone a little bit more, it can
Speaker 1: be the difference between life and death. Um. One of
Speaker 1: the reasons why I take creatum and why I advocate
Speaker 1: for people who are doing painkillers to take cretum instead
Speaker 1: is that creatum does not like it has health consequences,
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, and it is addictive. It does
Speaker 1: not depress your it doesn't stop you from breathing, you know, um,
Speaker 1: which is bad to stop breathing, is it now? Okay?
Speaker 1: Oh oh, that's why this pandemic is so bad. Bringing
Speaker 1: it back around here. So yeah, this happened right after well,
Speaker 1: I guess the day after we recorded last week, but
Speaker 1: SP eight has gone into effect in Texas last Wednesday. Uh,
Speaker 1: and it effectively bans abortion after six weeks of pregnancy,
Speaker 1: which is, of course, before most people know that they
Speaker 1: are pregnant. Um. Real quick, before we talk about this,
Speaker 1: I want to highlight that I said people, UM, I
Speaker 1: neglected to include this in our conversation on even More
Speaker 1: News last week, and I did mean to, but I'll
Speaker 1: even go ahead and admit that I wouldn't have talked
Speaker 1: about it even enough at that point. And I think
Speaker 1: it's a really important point, which is that when we
Speaker 1: are talking about reproductive rights, we should be cognizant that
Speaker 1: this is not solely a woman's issue, right. I think
Speaker 1: we can all accept now that it isn't. There are
Speaker 1: trans men, there are non binary people who are capable
Speaker 1: of bearing children in the air just as much a
Speaker 1: part of this conversation as as as as women are. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and um, a few people pointed it out to me
Speaker 1: really nicely last week, and I want to be like,
Speaker 1: thank you, guys, thank you for for that constructive way
Speaker 1: of phrasing it, because you're completely correct, and uh, we
Speaker 1: should all be cognizant of that as we are navigating
Speaker 1: these conversations. And I understand that there's a lot of
Speaker 1: emotion here from everybody, from all sides, but we get
Speaker 1: to work together and be respectful of this conversation. Nobody
Speaker 1: gets to be a fucking turf. Okay, Um, it's nice
Speaker 1: that they saw people. I just saw people pointing out
Speaker 1: and they it was very respectful and calm, which is
Speaker 1: rare for criticism. I think also because really you appreciate that, yeah,
Speaker 1: and you're open to it and stuff. And like I said,
Speaker 1: I did intend to, but I wouldn't even broach the
Speaker 1: conversation in as big of a way as I should have,
Speaker 1: So I, yeah, I think that that's this is all
Speaker 1: part of our evolution and learning right now, and uh,
Speaker 1: it's it's really important. So we're talking about this. This
Speaker 1: is not just affecting women. It's all inclusive. Texas does
Speaker 1: not discriminate. Texas does not discriminate. Um, it's pretty shitty.
Speaker 1: What's happening? Um, it's it's Uh, it's pretty bad Texas.
Speaker 1: Is that all we got? No, I mean it is
Speaker 1: all Like I, Cody, there was a beautiful moment last year.
Speaker 1: I think it was last year where you were starting
Speaker 1: to get optimistic about how the election might go in Texas,
Speaker 1: and uh, I said something along the lines of Texas
Speaker 1: will always disappoint you. Cody. Um, I remember that, and
Speaker 1: I don't want to. You know, there's there's a way
Speaker 1: people get frustrated with Texas that I think is is bullshit,
Speaker 1: which is kind of like throwing it under their bus, Like, well,
Speaker 1: who cares what happens? And they made their choice, and
Speaker 1: like there's more people, more democratic voters, more liberals, more
Speaker 1: leftists in Texas than in many entire states they're dealing with.
Speaker 1: They're not I don't want them to die either. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: what I when I say Texas will always fail you
Speaker 1: and disappoint you. I mean, Texas is a political uh
Speaker 1: being as a as a state will always always because
Speaker 1: because it was started by a bunch of slave owning
Speaker 1: psychopaths in order to increase their their personal ability to
Speaker 1: wield power over people. Um, and it is never not
Speaker 1: been that as a as a political unit, Texas exists
Speaker 1: to allow a relatively small number of white men to
Speaker 1: exercise violence and power over everyone who is not a
Speaker 1: white man in the state. They're doing a great job.
Speaker 1: They're doing a great job. I fucked the When I
Speaker 1: say fuck Texas, I'm saying fuck the state of Texas,
Speaker 1: not not the people. They're not the you wanna you
Speaker 1: wanna like. There's lots of bad communities and people working,
Speaker 1: and I've like, in terms of like the activists and
Speaker 1: organizers have met in the US that I respect the most.
Speaker 1: Some of them are in places like Texas, in Mississippi,
Speaker 1: um in in Alabama and Georgia, um places where you know,
Speaker 1: they're all filled with wonderful people fighting for human rights. Yeah. Um,
Speaker 1: but you're your sentiment of fuck Texas, but not the
Speaker 1: people is well taken and also kind of to the
Speaker 1: point here because that's part of the problem, uh with
Speaker 1: this law, in that there's nobody to sue. And we
Speaker 1: will get into this after the break you know, a moment.
Speaker 1: But but part of the whole debate about the legality
Speaker 1: of this is that it's unclear who you can go
Speaker 1: after to enforce this. So it's open season. Uh, you
Speaker 1: get to have citizen reportings of anybody that they think
Speaker 1: might be aiding and abetting the criminal enterprise of abortions
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, abortions. But we'll get into that after this
Speaker 1: ad break together everything. Ah, God man, that those ads.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you, it was like you know that
Speaker 1: feeling when you're getting waxed and you just suddenly feel
Speaker 1: you know, that feeling getting wax every single day. Sophie's
Speaker 1: hours a day for a full body. You're so hairy.
Speaker 1: For that, I'm seeing so much hair on you. It
Speaker 1: grows very quickly that hat. He just waxes his whole
Speaker 1: head off. I have what they call Robin Williams syndrome,
Speaker 1: by which I mean I'm doing a lot of cocaine.
Speaker 1: It's always testing his cocaine before he does it. We know.
Speaker 1: So yeah, let's let's talk some more about Texas. I
Speaker 1: want to call out TikTok and every good citizen who
Speaker 1: has flooded the tip line enough so that they've had
Speaker 1: to change its servers. And then the bandwagon, yeah, take
Speaker 1: it down own completely, And now they're not sure how
Speaker 1: they're going to be setting this up there, going back
Speaker 1: to the drawing board. Maybe it's a bad law. I
Speaker 1: want to tell them, wherever you run, we will find you.
Speaker 1: And if you're one of the beautiful people. We had
Speaker 1: somebody who created a script in my sub behind the
Speaker 1: Bastard subreddit to like, flood help flood the Texas tip line.
Speaker 1: If you're if you've been flooding them with bullshit, if
Speaker 1: you've been you know, working with anonymous whatever, you're any
Speaker 1: part of this effort to make it more difficult for
Speaker 1: that to exist. Thank you, you're doing God's work, doing
Speaker 1: a great job. Yeah, um, it's hardy to know. It
Speaker 1: kind of happens every time there's something like this. You
Speaker 1: think they've learned by now not to have like anonymous
Speaker 1: tip lines, like when Crenshaw it's always in Texas to
Speaker 1: yeah Crenshaw did, Like I said that wokeness in the
Speaker 1: military tip line, like yes, call in if you've if
Speaker 1: you've experienced a wokenus M. I heard someone phrase that
Speaker 1: like what if it went the other way, that there
Speaker 1: was tiplines for people that we think shouldn't have X,
Speaker 1: y Z weapons or guns, and what would would that look? Like? Well,
Speaker 1: it wouldn't fly. Um, yeah, that will never happen. So
Speaker 1: I did want to people keep what's going to happen?
Speaker 1: What's gonna happen? What are we going to do? I
Speaker 1: think that that's an important conversation that we don't know
Speaker 1: the answer to. UM. I continue is is we talked
Speaker 1: about this last week, but I will say it here
Speaker 1: now as well. My frustration in general with a Democratic party,
Speaker 1: with Biden failing to do anything significant or even attempt
Speaker 1: to fight right now, we're not saying very much. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's some words there there he's saying they're going to
Speaker 1: but where has he been all of these months as
Speaker 1: it led up to this? UM and sorry, just just
Speaker 1: the Biden administration just sort of like these things happened,
Speaker 1: and like, oh, well it happened, We're gonna fight it.
Speaker 1: It's like, well you knew, we you ahead of time.
Speaker 1: Weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks. Um, no, I
Speaker 1: mean points very well taken and agreed with. Um. You
Speaker 1: know what, people say, what can we do? What could
Speaker 1: democrats do? Well? We could actually have a serious conversation
Speaker 1: about the filibuster, We could have a serious conversation about
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. We could actually be working towards that.
Speaker 1: And some people will shake their heads and laugh and
Speaker 1: say that that's not realistic, And I would say to them,
Speaker 1: why not? When will it be? If not now, when
Speaker 1: how long do we wait until it's all gone? Everything's gone?
Speaker 1: Until we can't fix it? I mean we already we
Speaker 1: can't fix it. We have to, um, in a political sense,
Speaker 1: blow up the court. It has to not exist in
Speaker 1: its current Well, I mean I do agree. Is like
Speaker 1: so like like like why not? Like you guys have
Speaker 1: the power, you have the majority, and we might not
Speaker 1: have it for long. Look at what's happening. And it's
Speaker 1: like Dianne Feinstein, like we might the power shift could
Speaker 1: happen at any moment. But like you have the power,
Speaker 1: Like what what motivates voters to want to vote for
Speaker 1: you again to keep that power? When you have that power,
Speaker 1: you're not going to do anything. It's the cycle. Um.
Speaker 1: If they don't do anything, then later on something will
Speaker 1: be threatened and they can say, if you vote for us,
Speaker 1: then we will stop the bad thing from happening. Um.
Speaker 1: And they just rely on people forgetting that they don't
Speaker 1: actually do ship. Although kudos Clobes into the limelight, plenty bold.
Speaker 1: I know that's plenty bold, plenty bold Um. I wanna
Speaker 1: I want to say one thing that could be some
Speaker 1: line of hope for a potential way of proceeding that
Speaker 1: we could see play out. There could be an appeal
Speaker 1: to the Federal Court. I believe I should have written
Speaker 1: as down instead of just reading it real quick um,
Speaker 1: which would then make its way to Supreme Court eventually.
Speaker 1: But the other way something could happen is if a
Speaker 1: provider goes ahead and administers and an abortion at like
Speaker 1: say ten weeks, and allows the suit to happen and
Speaker 1: goes forward, and then you appeal that and it can
Speaker 1: make its way back to the Supreme Court. Because the
Speaker 1: crux of the what the reason why the Supreme Court
Speaker 1: is punting is as I suggested earlier, and this isn't
Speaker 1: very very basic terms that I can understand, is that
Speaker 1: the way the law was designed is that there is
Speaker 1: nobody that you can hold directly responsible, and there's no
Speaker 1: way to point out it's it's probably unconstitutional, but there's
Speaker 1: no way to enforce it, essentially, So you know, the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court was signaling their hand by going ahead and
Speaker 1: deciding this and not letting it exist on the shadow docket.
Speaker 1: But there is a world where if it comes back
Speaker 1: and there's an actual lawsuit as I think that this
Speaker 1: law that I'm being sued under is illegal, that's another
Speaker 1: opportunity for them to revisit this case in the interim.
Speaker 1: What are we gonna do about the Supreme fucking Court
Speaker 1: in the interim. I don't know if that will happen,
Speaker 1: but that is a possibility. I mean, that's the what
Speaker 1: you do? You want it to be challenged. It's a
Speaker 1: bad law. Um, yeah, so there is that. But in
Speaker 1: the meantime, in the meantime, it's it's it's effectively getting
Speaker 1: rid of abortion for for women in Texas. And let's
Speaker 1: be real, in very short order, Republican lawmakers across this country,
Speaker 1: in red districts in red states are going to be
Speaker 1: copying this law and it's evasiveness. They are going to
Speaker 1: be doing doing it for for for themselves, So we
Speaker 1: are going to continue to see this happen um and
Speaker 1: and of course there will be an actual ruling this
Speaker 1: term that is directly related to Roe v. Wade. So
Speaker 1: obviously none of it's good. I've talked to myself down
Speaker 1: from my slightly positive there are things that can be
Speaker 1: done in the future, and obviously you know, uh support
Speaker 1: for organizations in in Texas who are helping people um
Speaker 1: when they can. UM. I do think there's there's an
Speaker 1: interesting quote going around today to to to your point,
Speaker 1: Katie about um, how you just brought yourself down and
Speaker 1: now it's bad. Um. There's uh governor um of Texas
Speaker 1: abbot was he was talking uh being uh answering questions
Speaker 1: earlier today and someone's asking about the fact that, um,
Speaker 1: you know, uh uh pregnancies due to rape or incest
Speaker 1: um are also still um part of this law. And
Speaker 1: he his answer was that, like we're going to get
Speaker 1: rid of all the rapists. UM. That was literally like
Speaker 1: what he said. He's like, well, well, we'll just like
Speaker 1: go after We're gonna go after all the rapists and
Speaker 1: they'll I'll be arrested and then that won't be an
Speaker 1: issue anymore, which is wrong for many many reasons also
Speaker 1: like why wouldn't you do that before? If you just
Speaker 1: do that, why didn't you Why before? Man? Yet, why
Speaker 1: why are you like if you're if you're trying to
Speaker 1: go after the rapists because of this law, why wouldn't
Speaker 1: you go after them earlier? Because rape is illegal? Finally,
Speaker 1: finally someone is doing the thing. But also like so
Speaker 1: many you know, rapes aren't reported, um, and rape kits
Speaker 1: aren't tested. Like there's so many things about that specific answer,
Speaker 1: which is not good and presents uh sort of a
Speaker 1: false reality. Um. And it's just like like swapping the
Speaker 1: question aside, like well, we'll we'll do like precog ship,
Speaker 1: we'll get will will minority report the rapist away or whatever? Um.
Speaker 1: But in in answering this, he says that the law
Speaker 1: provides at least six weeks for a person to get
Speaker 1: an abortion. He's saying it's actually it's fine the law.
Speaker 1: The law provides at least six weeks. No one pointed
Speaker 1: out at the time, and I don't see anybody really
Speaker 1: pointing this out. He doesn't say like, oh, you get
Speaker 1: six weeks, and then this he says, you get at
Speaker 1: least six weeks, like it doesn't. It doesn't specify like
Speaker 1: that that it doesn't say six weeks. And in the
Speaker 1: actual law, I don't think it's like it's heartbeat based.
Speaker 1: But like he's saying, it provides at least six weeks
Speaker 1: because he knows that it's a bad law and that
Speaker 1: it's not actually very popular. Um, it's popular amongst the
Speaker 1: base and and things like that, but uh, he knows
Speaker 1: it's hard to argue in favor for it, like on camera,
Speaker 1: I think, in front of people. So he he pops in,
Speaker 1: he's like, well, at least six weeks, Like, well, not
Speaker 1: six at least six weeks. It is six weeks, um.
Speaker 1: And I just I just found that very interesting, and
Speaker 1: I I'm I'm I'm, I'm yeah exactly, And like I'm
Speaker 1: I'm using I'm using it as a little nugget of
Speaker 1: false hope that I that this could just fall apart
Speaker 1: for them because I think they know that it's uh
Speaker 1: indefensible and in order to defend it's a non constitutional law. Right.
Speaker 1: In order to defend it, they sort of they have
Speaker 1: to lie and slip in these words to make it
Speaker 1: not seem as severe as it is. Um. If he's saying,
Speaker 1: like well, yeah, at least at least six weeks when
Speaker 1: that's not actually true, then that's I think an indicator
Speaker 1: that he knows. Um not to say that like that's good,
Speaker 1: good things will come of it, but I think it
Speaker 1: is something to be aware of and watch for that
Speaker 1: they know it's indefensible and they can't and I do
Speaker 1: wish someone in the room point that out to him,
Speaker 1: But that's fine. They were probably busy being like, way,
Speaker 1: did you just say you're gonna go after all the
Speaker 1: rapists now because of this? Yeah? No, it's not fine,
Speaker 1: but it's not. Before we move on from this, I
Speaker 1: just want to circle back around to that filibuster conversation
Speaker 1: because there's just one little point I wanted to to mention, Um,
Speaker 1: there is a world such a long shot, but you know,
Speaker 1: I say we we we did eliminate the filibuster. You
Speaker 1: could pass the Women's Health Protection Act, um, and doing
Speaker 1: that would codify row into law, which would be good.
Speaker 1: But again, bringing this back around, that is contingent upon
Speaker 1: the conversation around the villabuster drastically changing into something that
Speaker 1: actually is supported by the Democratic institution. And I, aside
Speaker 1: from Klobush, are we don't know yet that that's happening,
Speaker 1: and obviously there's a lot of resistance to it. The
Speaker 1: bold plenty bold. Uh yeah, we'll see about that. You know,
Speaker 1: Mansion and the cinemas of the world are always going
Speaker 1: to be There's some real a state agent named Mansion
Speaker 1: in my neighborhood and I keep seeing their signs and
Speaker 1: it's just like their name is really big, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: the fuck, I think it's a It's not a campaign
Speaker 1: sign though, it's just a real terror. So one thing
Speaker 1: I wanted to note, the episode of it could happen
Speaker 1: here about this will have dropped by the time this
Speaker 1: episode comes out. Um. With the increasing restrictions on women's
Speaker 1: health access in Texas and Florida, looks like they're going
Speaker 1: to follow suit. I'm sure other states will try to
Speaker 1: push versions of this law. Reproductive health access. Yeah, self
Speaker 1: managed abortion is going to become even more necessary. Um.
Speaker 1: And this is the use of a couple of different
Speaker 1: pills to induce an abortion. And it's like the kind
Speaker 1: of standard protocol is good up to I believe nine
Speaker 1: or ten weeks, but you can do it further on
Speaker 1: than that. Actually, it's just there's a different kind of
Speaker 1: amount that you have to take. We have a great
Speaker 1: UM interview on it could happen here on self managed
Speaker 1: abortion with UM a woman who's been who's been working
Speaker 1: on providing access in training for years. Her organization provides
Speaker 1: training to women or men who want to be able
Speaker 1: to train others in providing self managed abortions. There's information
Speaker 1: on like where you can find these pills and get them? Um.
Speaker 1: The legality you know, it's going to depend on where
Speaker 1: you are, but you can also pretty much get the
Speaker 1: pills anywhere if you if you look into it enough. UM, So,
Speaker 1: regardless of what the state of Texas says, you can
Speaker 1: get yourself access to medication that will allow you to
Speaker 1: help yourself and others take control of your reproductive health.
Speaker 1: Thank you. I think that's a really good points and
Speaker 1: valuable information to share. Slight correction, you said women's reproductive health, right,
Speaker 1: just say, but that's part of this. It's like, let's
Speaker 1: let's start to be aware, you know, UM, all right,
Speaker 1: what else we got guys? Shall we take one other
Speaker 1: quick break and then let's break it up speaking of pills,
Speaker 1: will be right back after another for pills five pills together? Everything,
Speaker 1: don't oh we didn't officially come back from break, but
Speaker 1: maybe we've been back from break by the way back
Speaker 1: some good news. Mexico just to criminalized abortion, which is
Speaker 1: there the world's second biggest Catholic country. Kind of a
Speaker 1: huge deal. Actually yeah, um, so that's me. Border any states? Um,
Speaker 1: no one knows, actually, Cody, the borders of Mexico are
Speaker 1: a longstanding mystery. Scientists have debated this for thousands of years. Okay,
Speaker 1: well they should work harder. I think there are vortexes
Speaker 1: or something. I don't know. Um, shall we talk about Brazil, Robert,
Speaker 1: I love Brazil. Uh in Panadas, in Bandina's Uh, that's it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: those are great things. Jaca biscuits. Oh my god, Oh
Speaker 1: my god, I love Yucca. Oh it's so good. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So I don't know. Is there anything else going on
Speaker 1: in Brazil. You're the one that pitched it as a topic,
Speaker 1: so that doesn't sound like me. Yeah, And according to
Speaker 1: Twitter and the news, yeah there is. Yeah. Well, Brazil's
Speaker 1: main exports and imports uh land mass also, I mean
Speaker 1: the main export of Brazil is JayR Bulson jar pictures
Speaker 1: of JayR Bulson Yaro dying in the hospital. The main
Speaker 1: import of Brazil is medication to keep JayR bulson Yaro
Speaker 1: from dying. Quite quite the equilibrium they have going on there.
Speaker 1: So that's what we call a symbiotic relationship. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: world's sickest man, JayR bulson Jaro, in between repeatedly catching
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen and having ships sucked out of his nose
Speaker 1: through a tube, UM is also and is about is
Speaker 1: dealing with the fact that Um, his administration is kind
Speaker 1: of coming apart a little bit. So Brazil has the
Speaker 1: world's second highest COVID nineteen death toll. Um. It's it's
Speaker 1: his response to the virus, which has been denying it exists,
Speaker 1: denying that the best medication for it exists, and telling
Speaker 1: people to lick each other. UM has not worked. UH,
Speaker 1: and it's kind of a fucking disaster. His popularity has
Speaker 1: taken a real significant hit. UM. And this is coming
Speaker 1: on the heels of fact. So the person who preceded him, UM,
Speaker 1: or one of the people who preceded him, Lula, the
Speaker 1: former president of Brazil, was like jailed for corruption and
Speaker 1: then it was shown that he had not done the
Speaker 1: things that he was jailed for. Was it was all bullshit,
Speaker 1: UM and Lula seems likely to enter the race. UM
Speaker 1: and poll suggests that he would. He would beat the
Speaker 1: ship out of JR. Bulson Narrow. Um. So it's not
Speaker 1: a good time for for Bolson Yarrow. And this is
Speaker 1: compounded by the fact that the Supreme Court of Brazil
Speaker 1: has been throwing some haymakers towards his his far right movement, which,
Speaker 1: like all far right movements, seeks total control and the
Speaker 1: ability to act exercise unchecked violence over their opponents. Um, So,
Speaker 1: what's a haymaker? Give me the etymology, the big old
Speaker 1: punch old like that. Yeah, it's it's a yes. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's how you knock someone into the hay they pass out,
Speaker 1: you know whatever. That's how you make bricks in minecraft. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it is adding a lot to this conversation. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not. This is I'm just starting to
Speaker 1: dig into, like what's kind of happening here. I'm not
Speaker 1: an expert on on the present situation, but the gist
Speaker 1: of it is that the Supreme Court UM, particularly the
Speaker 1: Chief Justice of the Supreme Court UM, has issued rulings
Speaker 1: that have led to the jailing of a number of
Speaker 1: Bolson Yarrow supporters for financing and inciting violence, um and
Speaker 1: attempting to know do overthrow the government ship. And while
Speaker 1: this has been happening, like his son, Eduardo has been
Speaker 1: repeatedly talking about how awesome the insurrection on January six
Speaker 1: and the u S could have been and like how
Speaker 1: it could have been done better. Um. And this is
Speaker 1: but he was there, right, He wasn't there And I
Speaker 1: don't think he was there in January Tomorrow's son. I
Speaker 1: I thought, Okay, was he? I know that he has
Speaker 1: He and Bolsonaro have ties to Bannon and they've been
Speaker 1: talking to Bannon. And a former Trump administration official was
Speaker 1: just in Brazili talk yeah, and was detained by the
Speaker 1: Brazilian government for probably trying to help Bulsonnaro and his
Speaker 1: family carry out a coup. It really seems like that's why, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it does seem Eduardo bulson Aro doing in Washington during
Speaker 1: the January six coup. I don't think he was at
Speaker 1: the writing. I think that he was in watt There
Speaker 1: is something that you know, and he was praising it,
Speaker 1: but also yes, saying that, And that's to the point.
Speaker 1: This is a this is a global far right power grab. Right.
Speaker 1: They tried it on January six. They're trying it now,
Speaker 1: um in Brazil. And so basically there's been this movement
Speaker 1: among the far right Brazil to to literally hold a
Speaker 1: military coup that boson Narrow himself has explicitly endorsed that, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: let's you know, let's take power basically, And they held
Speaker 1: a big march today. Um. That seems like it's it's
Speaker 1: gone more peacefully than expected. There was a lot of
Speaker 1: worry about this that they would actually try to storm
Speaker 1: and take over the government. Boson Yaro expected to get
Speaker 1: two million supporters. He only got about a hundred between
Speaker 1: a hundred and ten, a hundred and twenty five thousand, um.
Speaker 1: Because again these people are always way less popular than
Speaker 1: they pretend to be. Um. But boson Naro has also
Speaker 1: said that, um, he's no longer going to abide by
Speaker 1: rulings from the Chief of the Supreme Court. Um. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And so basically like saying I'm going to see, you know,
Speaker 1: during the re election whatever the court says, like fuck it,
Speaker 1: I'm not listening, um, which is a problem in a democracy.
Speaker 1: There's a lot going on here. Um. But it is
Speaker 1: again doing these things that are like it's Trump but
Speaker 1: less dopey He's like, yeah, like it's the trial balloon.
Speaker 1: What balloon was Trump and his and his silly incompetence. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it's like there's a bunch of fucking so yeah.
Speaker 1: So this is what President bulson Yaroson Edwardo, who is
Speaker 1: also a congressman, said about the storming of the US
Speaker 1: capital in January six. Quote, if it had been better organized,
Speaker 1: they would have taken to capital and made specific demands
Speaker 1: previously established by the invaders. Um. Yeah, and he's he
Speaker 1: just on August fourth met with Steve Bannon, uh talking.
Speaker 1: We had a great conversation. We share the same worldview. Um.
Speaker 1: He's said to be an enthusiast of bolson Naro's campaign,
Speaker 1: and we are certainly in touch to join forces, especially
Speaker 1: against cultural Marxism. I found guys. On the evening of
Speaker 1: January six, before Congress had finally completed the certification of
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's elections as US President, Eduardo Bolsonaro posted a
Speaker 1: photo himself beside Trump supporter Michael Lindell, saying kids to
Speaker 1: meet Michael Lindell, a former news jocking out successful bustmasman
Speaker 1: in the US and Mike Lindell of course very integral
Speaker 1: to it. So that's where I got it. No, No,
Speaker 1: that's that's good. That's good. Con And so Jason Miller,
Speaker 1: the former Trump advisor, was in Brazil for the Brazilian
Speaker 1: c pack, which again this is the point, like this
Speaker 1: is a global far right power graph these people. And
Speaker 1: he was on Steve Bannon Show the day before he
Speaker 1: was detained talking about how he'd been with the bolson
Speaker 1: Yaro family, like, um, and fucking Eduardo bolson Naro was
Speaker 1: just photographed and I believe it looks like he's in
Speaker 1: a helicopter, um. Yeah, and a helicopter wearing a Project
Speaker 1: Veritas shirt. Um. Like they're all it's it's a global
Speaker 1: thing that's coming together here and they are they are iterating,
Speaker 1: and again, maybe it doesn't look like it's gonna work.
Speaker 1: This coup is gonna work is time, you know, with
Speaker 1: bolson Yaro, who knows, maybe he'll lose reelection, maybe like
Speaker 1: a cat eat his liver or something. Yeah, they're gonna
Speaker 1: keep trying, and they're going to keep altering their tactics
Speaker 1: and experimenting with things. And it's not enough to just
Speaker 1: be like, well they failed again. This is clearly never
Speaker 1: going to be another problem, Like no, they're they're learning,
Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna fail a little less than they're
Speaker 1: gonna fail a little. We're actively watching them learn. They're
Speaker 1: not even hiding it. Yeah, we all need to be
Speaker 1: on guard. Finish water, like says he says it in
Speaker 1: the in part of that quote that if they were
Speaker 1: better organized and prepared, they would have had the power
Speaker 1: to kill the Congress people they despise um like he
Speaker 1: says it, They're like, yeah, just do it better next time.
Speaker 1: People organized, be more prepared, have clear goals. That was
Speaker 1: the lesson. And when people tell you who they are,
Speaker 1: but yea of them yeah, as a as fucking um
Speaker 1: Hans No, no, no, um. I think it has a
Speaker 1: little He was. He was a German lawyer who put
Speaker 1: Hitler on trial immediately prior to the Nazis taking power,
Speaker 1: and like one of the uns litten. One of the
Speaker 1: line he repeatedly used as Hitler was kind of him
Speaker 1: and on hawing about whether or not he encouraged violence
Speaker 1: was don't listen to him. He's telling the truth, right,
Speaker 1: don't listen to him, like, don't listen to these like
Speaker 1: justifications he comes up with, like listen to like when
Speaker 1: he says these horrible things that he later comes o
Speaker 1: that was a joke, that was an exaggeration. That's not
Speaker 1: like listen to Like, these people are very clear about
Speaker 1: who they are. Um, and they always have a separate
Speaker 1: line that they can give you to try to make
Speaker 1: it sound like they're less extreme and less dangerous. But like, listen,
Speaker 1: look at their actions. They're telling you who they are.
Speaker 1: They want to take total power and they want to
Speaker 1: fucking kill anybody who doesn't want them to have total power.
Speaker 1: And their their goal, whether they're the fucking Republican Party
Speaker 1: of Texas, joy your Bolton Yarrow's supporters, the Proud Boys
Speaker 1: wandering around beating people in the streets of Olympia, Washington.
Speaker 1: They want the ability to do unchecked violence to people
Speaker 1: they disagree with. It is about exerting force. That's all
Speaker 1: it is. That's all it's ever been. Um. And you
Speaker 1: can either let them do it or not. But you
Speaker 1: can't just ignore them. God it's yeah or pretended um.
Speaker 1: And it's hard um, you know, m hm, it's hard
Speaker 1: to see people. It's like I I see this in
Speaker 1: like relationships and just different dynamics across the board, like
Speaker 1: You're like, that person can't possibly be that evil person,
Speaker 1: couldn't possibly have this kind of worst intention. Yes, they
Speaker 1: can and they do. They can and they do. They
Speaker 1: can't possibly be willing to kill people over this. They
Speaker 1: can and they are. You know it. Yeah, And it's
Speaker 1: the people. It's like the people who say, I have
Speaker 1: a lot of respect for certain kinds of pacif ism, um,
Speaker 1: because there's a lot honorable about the actual if you
Speaker 1: read the actual intellectual traditions pacivism. But the people who say, like,
Speaker 1: violence doesn't solve anything, like you shouldn't arm yourself, you
Speaker 1: shouldn't be prepared to use force against against your enemies,
Speaker 1: because that makes you as bad as I'm like, no, no,
Speaker 1: no violence. Violence will solve you if if you aren't
Speaker 1: if if there's no force on your side to protect you,
Speaker 1: violence will solve the problem of your existence. And your
Speaker 1: existence is a problem for the fascists, and they will
Speaker 1: solve that problem using violence if you don't have the
Speaker 1: ability to exert force against them, and you can't rely
Speaker 1: on the fucking cops to do it, um, because a
Speaker 1: lot of the cops agree with these people. They can Yeah, um,
Speaker 1: you you we are we are not in the We
Speaker 1: are well past the point being able to hope this
Speaker 1: genie gets put back in the fucking bottle. We are
Speaker 1: well past the point of voting this problem away. There
Speaker 1: are I'm not and I'm not saying forces even most
Speaker 1: of the solution. It's actually not most of the solution
Speaker 1: at all. And I think you have to historically, if
Speaker 1: you're analyzing the flaws of pacifism in combating fascism, you
Speaker 1: have to analyze the flaws against militant anti fascism. Right
Speaker 1: the anti fascists in Germany, that modern antifa type people
Speaker 1: um idolized. They're obviously people to respect because they stood
Speaker 1: up against the Nazis. They also lost. So we shouldn't
Speaker 1: just be like the The solution to the problem of
Speaker 1: fascism is multifaceted. Um. But you do have to have
Speaker 1: the ability to use force on your side. Um. Just
Speaker 1: like it's not you know, for all the critiques we
Speaker 1: have about the military industrial complex, it's not worthless that
Speaker 1: when Trump called upon the Joint Chiefs to send the
Speaker 1: army out to murder protesters last year, General Millie was like, no,
Speaker 1: it's good. It's good that there's it's good that even
Speaker 1: if you don't agree with them on nine things out
Speaker 1: of ten. There are people with a lot of weapons
Speaker 1: that they're back and call who were willing to look
Speaker 1: at that guy and that those orders and say no,
Speaker 1: that's fucked up. Um. It's it's there's a there's a
Speaker 1: gap in the ability to do violence right now between
Speaker 1: the far right, um, and in people who are not
Speaker 1: the far right. And even though the far right is
Speaker 1: of the population at most, if they're the ones with
Speaker 1: most of the guns and they're will all willing to kill,
Speaker 1: they'll win well, right, because it's not just the weaponry necessarily,
Speaker 1: it is there desire to kill. It's the there is
Speaker 1: and this you know, not every single person obviously, but
Speaker 1: like there is a thirst for violence, um. And that
Speaker 1: thirst is very powerful, especially against people that don't necessarily
Speaker 1: have that thirst. It seems quite bad. Yeah, yeah, but
Speaker 1: I don't know. Again, eventually a bird we'll eat both
Speaker 1: of narrows Organs and then he'll become even more powerful.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, was that established earlier? You say again, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think he's attacked by an emo at some point.
Speaker 1: I did not what I did not know that story. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he was attacked by an emom his body is eating itself. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, good ship. He sounds like a really healthy
Speaker 1: individual all around. Got other stuff. Guys, we've we've petered
Speaker 1: into the end here happening progression of just like we're done.
Speaker 1: I was like trying to find something fun to pivot
Speaker 1: around too. I don't we're recording a little later in
Speaker 1: the day. Do you have evening plans? I have an
Speaker 1: impossible amount of work to do. To have an impossible
Speaker 1: amount of work to do. Um, but I you know,
Speaker 1: I got I. I recently moved into a new living
Speaker 1: situation and I now have a little urban farm with
Speaker 1: a number of other people. And I spent my weekend
Speaker 1: pressing apples and pears and making sixteen gallons of of
Speaker 1: of cider that's currently fermenting. And then we took a
Speaker 1: shiploaded pounds of tomatoes which we can uh, and made
Speaker 1: a bunch of pickles to canned. A bunch of pickles.
Speaker 1: Um and plum butter from plums. Uh. That sounds so
Speaker 1: wholesome and fun processing food and storing calories. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: At the place where I live. Um, and we we
Speaker 1: have a we have a problematic amount of eggs from
Speaker 1: the chickens at the moment, like a it's become an issue,
Speaker 1: like I we cannot consume the amount of eggs that
Speaker 1: we are producing. Can you sell them? I don't want
Speaker 1: to sell them. We give away a lot, But I
Speaker 1: think I'm going to experiment. We're gonna experiment next with
Speaker 1: pickling the eggs because that way that we're also able
Speaker 1: to produce, you know, on on premises and store our
Speaker 1: own protein long term, which will be neat pickling eggs.
Speaker 1: I've never heard of that. Yeah. So if you've ever
Speaker 1: had like really good rama and it will often have
Speaker 1: like a pickled egg in it, like in the Good Rama. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but so how long can you store it like that?
Speaker 1: I mean you can if you're actually properly canning it right.
Speaker 1: You can do like the lazy kind of pickling where
Speaker 1: you're kind of just like throwing some vinegar and cucumbers
Speaker 1: together and that will keep in the fridge for like
Speaker 1: five or six weeks. But if you're properly canning, where
Speaker 1: you're like heat treating and all that, ship, you can
Speaker 1: go a couple of years if you're doing it right.
Speaker 1: Even an egg, even eggs, wow, yeah, if they're pickled, Yeah,
Speaker 1: if they're if they're properly pickled all in my mind. Man,
Speaker 1: we are pivoting to a whole different type of podcast here,
Speaker 1: and I'm into it. Yeah, I mean it's it's it's
Speaker 1: exciting stuff I enjoy. We only have about an acre
Speaker 1: of of land to work, but that's enough to produce
Speaker 1: a significant amount of food. I really love this for you.
Speaker 1: This sounds like you're really healthy, decompressing activity for you
Speaker 1: to balance out your workload, and it makes me really happy.
Speaker 1: And thank you for sharing that story. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: it's nice. I've been I've been advocating. You know, I've
Speaker 1: always had I've had a garden for years, and I've
Speaker 1: lived on farms off and on across my life. But
Speaker 1: the last few years I've been living in a very
Speaker 1: very tiny um place, uh and and was not able
Speaker 1: to engage in some of the like as much as
Speaker 1: I would talk about, you know, um gardening and in
Speaker 1: different kind of resiliency options and building you know, ways
Speaker 1: to kind of be more less less dependent upon the
Speaker 1: supply chains and stuff. I was really more reliant upon
Speaker 1: just being able to buy and store food and stuff
Speaker 1: than I wanted to. And it's it's very nice to
Speaker 1: be able to kind of live more of my ideology
Speaker 1: and gain learn new skills and kind of gain additional
Speaker 1: independence from from the grid in the system in that
Speaker 1: kind of way without dropping out of society and living
Speaker 1: in the woods. Sophie says, I'm not allowed to do
Speaker 1: find finding the right balance, and I find it very inspiring. Yes, Katie,
Speaker 1: he does all right drop phrases like I'm eating grapes
Speaker 1: on the lanai. Now I have a lanni? That is
Speaker 1: what's a lani? Lani? It's it's a fancy word for porch.
Speaker 1: He does say things like that. Now, well have to
Speaker 1: have any like are there any like specific uh features? Yes,
Speaker 1: that make it a lani? Yes, And you can refer
Speaker 1: to the documentary The Golden Girls. Reference the Golden Girls
Speaker 1: often now suddenly just just with the increased in gardening. Yes,
