1
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: Hold open, Hold open, Jesus Christ.

2
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 2: I do like the first question I had for you,

3
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:17,079
Speaker 2: because I know you've been like unplugged. I was like,

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 2: but like, do you know about the Luca thing?

5
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean I'm not. I mean I'm unplugged

6
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: in the sense that I I can't. I have no

7
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 1: mental bandwidth aside from navigating the crisis, which sucks because

8
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I don't. I don't know

9
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: what sucks anymore. That's the thing. You don't know what

10
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: fucking sucks, what's terrible anymore? Right, But I mean, best believe,

11
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: like my phone was fucking exploding with texts. Second, yeah,

12
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: and a lot of stuff caveat. Hey Bro, I know

13
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: you're going through a lot right now. Hey ron Bro,

14
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: I know, shit, it's crazy right now. But just just

15
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: so you know, lucas a Laker now. I was like,

16
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: once I saw that the text coming from Jabari, and

17
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: I was.

18
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, Javari was first, you know, is gonna be

19
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 2: the first person who tells us anything.

20
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: It's our shams or no, no disrespect, he's our woch.

21
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: That's right, Yeah, exactly, that don't disrespect Jabari like that.

22
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: But yeah, that was just a fucking I'm still we'll

23
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: talk about it. What the fuck? This is? Maybe some

24
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: kind of lead conspiracy.

25
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 2: But it's so strange, it's so strange. But you know

26
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 2: you've made a good move when every immediately people are

27
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 2: making up conspiracy theories about the trade you made. First

28
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 2: disbelief in every front, like both Lakers and Mavericks, then

29
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: exactly and.

30
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: Then check check check check.

31
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 2: And then just immediate conspiracy theories, some of which I've

32
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 2: dove in on and seen.

33
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: The most likely one is the horse trading behind the

34
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: scenes with Adelson. Yeah, and the and the move to Vegas. Yeah,

35
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 1: that just seems because like why keep it so secret? Yeah,

36
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: if they said, hey, Lucas for.

37
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 2: Sale, they would be blooded.

38
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,240

Speaker 1: cannot tell you. I mean, I'm sure you guys can

70
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: imagine how difficult it is to have your material life

71
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: literally go up in flames, but the outpouring of love

72
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 1: and support both like emotional and material has been so overwhelming.

73
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm really at a loss for words. I

74
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 1: was like her Massey and I we were looking at

75
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: all the messages from the listeners and we were so

76
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: overwhelmed to just really get an idea of just how

77
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 1: big this community is that we've cultivated from the show,

78
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: like just connecting y'all to each other, you guys connecting

79
00:04:55,080 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: to us. I'm I'm so humbled and I never thought

80
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: in a million years that I would need this kind

81
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: of help. I would never be in a situation where

82
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: I was really needing to lean on people, and the

83
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: manner in which people have come through made it very

84
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: easy to do. And I'm still just in disbelief out

85
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: of everything. But I just want to say, zey gang,

86
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: whenever you see me, please come up to me, because

87
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: I love all of y'all. I know y'all love us,

88
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 1: but I want to be able to show that to

89
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: you too as much as I can, because this has

90
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,960

00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, you're just You're the other side of it.

92

Speaker 2: You're loved and it's all well deserved, which I know

93
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 2: is always one of the hardest things to see from

94
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 2: your own perspective. But you know, just like.

95
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,119
Speaker 1: The crazy shit is like you know, your your house

96
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: burns down and you're kind of in like the craziest

97
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: form of denial over it. To start off, like I

98
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: was telling you when you're like hey, man, like you know,

99
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: we're thinking about like what's the best way to help.

100
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: I was like, we're good, dude, We'll be on, We'll

Speaker 2: I mean I was reaching out like day one though,

00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,280

105

108
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 2: maybe a cast roll or something down the road a

109
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: couple of weeks right now.

110
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: Fine, I have no home, I have no childcare, I

111
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: have no hair, I have no hats.

112
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, your hair did so I do want it for

113
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 2: people who don't watch the videos of the show. Uh,

114
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 2: just you know, my Miles had a gorgeous head of.

115
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 1: Hair, unbelievable.

116
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 2: It was like now it's all gone.

117
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, hairline was so strong. Across Jaalen Rose was asking

118
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 1: me what my exactly give me the miles is that

119
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:04,039
Speaker 1: it's real, Jalen like you, but yeah, it's where was

120
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: I all that to say? This is crazy? Oh? And

121
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: just like the hell I mean, we talked about this

122
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: on the show a lot, Like it's very difficult to

123
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: ask for help a lot of the times, I think,

124
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: just generally and especially in American culture, like we're so

125
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: fucking bootstrappy in a weird way. But it's funny how

126
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: like the people who are in the midst of it

127
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: can't really see how intense the tragedy is, whereas everyone

128
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: from the outside could acknowledge it. Yeah, even if they

129
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: don't understand it like very innately, like they do understand

130
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: what the stakes are here. And yeah, like I mean

131
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: I was just in pure state of like shell shock

132
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 1: for probably like ten days. Sure you trying to figure

133
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: it all out, But anyway, I don't know what happened

134
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: the last three weeks. I know Elon Musk is trying

135
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: to blame autism on Nazism or there's a correlation there,

136
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:58,679
Speaker 1: a laker.

137
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 2: That one is that So this is our first recording

138
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 2: since that one happened, And truly that feels like the

139
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 2: most surreal story because probably just because of like it

140
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 2: says something bad about me that that's the story that

141
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 2: really fucking the most.

142
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: Hest deportations, the lawful roundups, the violation of even American citizens' rights.

143
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, dude, but how the fuck how the

144
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: Lakers did they do that? That for that? So anyway,

145
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: it's good to be back.

146
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 2: I am.

147
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: I was gonna say this in the overet underrated. Please

148
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: bear with me, folks. I'm I'm trying to regain a

149
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: sense of normalcy, like amidst this crisis. Anyway, everything's just

150
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: up in the air. I'm I'm I'm trying my best

151
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,679
Speaker 1: to be back here. You know. Every day. Yeah, I may,

152
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: I may. I may have to pop out every now

153
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,679
Speaker 1: and then to deal with existential crises that do pop up.

154
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: But anyway, it's going to be back. I'm done talking

155
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: about that for now. But guess what, it's gonna keep

156
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: coming up because that's what's going on with me and

157
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,800

00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: show because I see what's happening on some other fucking

166
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: podcasts nowadays and that I don't see empathy like that,

167

Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you eternally.

170
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk about some fuck shit.

171
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 2: Sounds like a plant, all right. So this is the episode,

172
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 2: the Monday episode where we tell you what was trending

173
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 2: over the weekend. First, we let you get to know

174
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 2: us a little bit better by telling you stuff we

175
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 2: think is underrated, stuff we think is overrated. Why don't

176
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 2: I kick us off with an underrated? So, by underrated

177
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 2: is the idea of like having humility about how dumb

178
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 2: you are. This is like, this is the big idea

179
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 2: that got me into being into like philosophy when I

180
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 2: was a freshman in college and heard, you know, after

181
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 2: a lifetime of being around people with like really really

182
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 2: strong faith about big, very uncertain things, I you know,

183
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 2: intro to philosophy I hear this guy saying, brother, we

184
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 2: don't know shit, and that guy, little guy by the

185
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 2: name of Socrates, and yeah, I was like, that just

186
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:49,320
Speaker 2: seemed like the truest thing, just the how little we

187
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 2: know being like the first thing that you're aware of,

188
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 2: like the mystery of it all, how little we know

189
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 2: about it all, making room for your own stupidity. And

190
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 2: I'm I'm seeing it slightly lacking in a couple places

191
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:09,559
Speaker 2: these days. I'm seeing it lacking with like the accelerationists

192
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 2: who are like, yeah, let's just fucking tear it all down.

193
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 2: This is good that Trump is doing bad things and

194
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 2: killing people, because that will lead to a better future sooner.

195
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 2: It's just like, I don't know, I I guess, yeah,

196
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 2: you're just being really certain about some things you can't

197
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 2: be possibly certain of. And then obviously a huge problem

198
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 2: with authoritarianism itself, which like craves certitude over everything else,

199
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 2: just like big sweeping actions that knock down cities as

200
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: long as it like gives people something that they can

201
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 2: like be temporarily not uncertain about. But mainly I'm seeing

202
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 2: it with the Dallas Mavericks. Above all, the Dallas Mavericks.

203
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 1: I'm seeing those fans. I am so sorry to you.

204
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to even say the Dallas Mavericks

205
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 2: their GM right, like the whoever made this decision for

206
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 2: I'm like having to jam this into my under it

207
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 2: like I I know, not everyone is an NBA fan

208
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 2: who listens to TDZ mostar statistically, Yeah, I went to it,

209
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:27,200
Speaker 2: like my uh my kids and their friends all went

210
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 2: to dog Man, the movie dog Man last night, the Man. Yeah,

211
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 2: the dog The dog Man cinematic film just came out

212
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 2: and is doing By the way, bof o bo.

213
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: Wow, don't you have an album coming out under the

214
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: name dog Man X. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's dark

215
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: and hell hot, I think it is.

216
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the all DMX soundtrack to The dog Man.

217
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 2: It's really My kids came out with a lot of questions.

218
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, bitches want hit a little bit different when it's

219
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 1: an actual dog.

220
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 2: So he's allowed to. Yeah, but yeah, so afterwards I

221
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 2: missed dog Man. My wife took took them to dog Man,

222
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 2: and then I came after and met up for dinner,

223
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 2: and I was just like going down the line two

224
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 2: different parents being like, do you like the NBA? Nope,

225
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 2: moving on, do you like the NBA. Nope, thank you

226
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 2: for your time. Do you like the NBA? Until I

227
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 2: found somebody who could, and I was just like Luca, right,

228
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 2: what what is what? Uh? Because I don't know. It's

229
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 2: a startling move, I guess for people who aren't I saw,

230
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,319
Speaker 2: I saw it. Put in these terms, for people who

231
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 2: aren't NBA fans, it would be like if Destiny's Child

232
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 2: traded Beyonce to TLC for Chili like that, that's wow,

233
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 2: link off to the And that's nothing against Chili, that's

234
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 2: nothing against Anthony Davis, you know. Yeah, but like, uh,

235
00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 2: it's it was just a very you know, Loop just

236
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 2: took the put the Dallas Mavericks on his back and

237
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 2: took them to the finals last year, and now they

238
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 2: just gave up on him halfway through this season. And

239
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 2: the question is why. That was the question that immediately happened. Yeah,

240
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: the guy at Dallas claims that he like made the

241
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 2: trade without asking any other NBA franchisees if they like

242
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 2: wanted to trade for him, Like he basically this is

243
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 2: a trade where he could have gotten so so so,

244
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 2: so so so much from like, yeah, he's he's the

245
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 2: best player, like everybody would want him he's like a

246
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 2: player that is called untradeable and they traded him for

247
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 2: like pennies on the dollar, and now the Lakers have

248
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 2: him and a lot of it. Just you know, you've

249
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 2: made a good decision when first of all, the first

250
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 2: response to the news breaking is everyone immediately assures each

251
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 2: other that the person reporting it has been hacked, which

252
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 2: was the first like just everybody being like, no, that's

253
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:06,479
Speaker 2: not that's not a real story. And then everybody immediately

254
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 2: just starts trying to come up with conspiracy theories about

255
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 2: like why you would have possibly done this. But anyways,

256
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 2: back to my theme of like being so certain, you know,

257
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 2: like he was so certain that this made sense that

258
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 2: like he had some secret information that I guess Luca

259
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 2: is like hard to deal with behind the scenes and

260
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 2: is like not good at staying in shape.

261
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: But like we saw that clip where Michael Finley snatched

262
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: that beer out of his hand, took.

263
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 2: A beer out of his hands while they were celebrating

264
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 2: the ship.

265
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: So it but just that's like some shit where like

266
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: in a you see that shit in a relationship where

267
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: someone's like, Babe, I'm not going to drink tonight. I'm

268
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: not gonna drink tonight. We're gonna go out. I'm not

269
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: gonna drink tonight, right, And then she was like, what

270
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: the fuck are you doing this beer in your hand

271
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 1: And they're like, oh yeah.

272
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 2: Oh what I just thought. I just thought because we

273
00:15:56,280 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 2: were celebrating take you nowhere, that literally that was the

274
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 2: energy as they were celebrating going to the final. So

275
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 2: there was like trouble there. But like he he made

276
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 2: such a like an indefensible decision, like indefensible in the

277
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 2: sense that they're this produce, like what they got in exchange,

278
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 2: just like doesn't doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense

279
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 2: that he would keep it a secret. He was like,

280
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 2: thank you to the Lakers for like keeping this on

281
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 2: on the low with us for some reason, Like what

282
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 2: why would they Why would you think that was the

283
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 2: right thing to do? Keep it a secret. It's just

284
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 2: so confusing. I wish he had read a little Socrates

285
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 2: for the for the sake of the Dallas Mavericks and

286
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 2: just been like, maybe it is I who is wrong

287
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 2: and not literally everybody else in the world. You know,

288
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 2: maybe maybe focus group this one with just a handful

289
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 2: of NBA fans before concluding, Nah, it's this it's the

290
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 2: kids who are wrong. Mm hmm, it's everybody else. Yeah,

291
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 2: we just I think it's valuable to have people with

292
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 2: a healthy skepticism about their own ability to know.

293
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,439
Speaker 1: Well, that's the thing. Sure, Just generally, I feel like

294
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 1: in a social dynamic setting, the people who are a

295
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: little bit more thinking, who are more contemplative and aren't

296
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: jumping to conclusions immediately typically don't get like the momentum

297
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: of people getting behind them right way, or someone goes,

298
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: You're like, no, man, when need doing this this? Tear

299
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 1: that down, destroy that, take that shit, turn it into

300
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: the color blue that that's no longer as Yeah, that

301
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: should be a mouse running everything. That kid back there,

302
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: that's my smartest employee from another company I have now

303
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 1: running through all the fucking payment systems of the goddamn government.

304
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 1: That kind of shit allows like it's quirk that deficiency

305
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: you have. Oddly enough gets the people who are thinking

306
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 1: a little bit more sometimes like, well, it's better I'll

307
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 1: just outsource my decision making this person. It seems that

308
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,439
Speaker 1: they yeah, figured out, I mean they're saying it so confidently,

309
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 1: and yeah, and look at us now, could just.

310
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 2: Be growth incompetence. H This is the guy who apparently

311
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 2: so the GM of the Dallas Maavericks, is also a

312
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 2: former Nike executive who has this legendary story where everybody's

313
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 2: always like, why is Steph Curry signed with under Armour? Like,

314
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 2: that's not even a shoe company. That's like a company

315
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 2: that makes golf shirts for middle aged dads in the Philadelphia.

316
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: Area, Camo hoodies with the pink breast cancer logo. That's

317
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: the weirdest combo of whenever you see the under Armoured

318
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 1: Camo breast cancer awareness. Ay, I'm like, that's America though.

319
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: And now they're a shoe company because Steph Curry signed

320
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 2: with them. And if you want to know why Steph

321
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 2: Curry signed with them, one of the stories is that

322
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 2: he had a legendarily catastrophic meeting with Nike when Nike

323
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 2: was like, we want to make you your own shoe

324
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 2: and uh, a former Nike executive who is now the

325
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 2: Gem of Dallas. I think God his name is he?

326
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 2: The one him Stephen Seth called him Seth Seth, which

327
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: is his brother's brother.

328
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: Yes, who's not even close to being this the talent

329
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 1: that Steph is, which is so crazy to me that

330
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: you go in there, just like, just like you had

331
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: a medium. Michael Jackson like, hey, Tito, Tito, like the

332
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: fuck you know who the fuck I what are you

333
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 1: talking about?

334
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 2: Okay, they called him Seth showed him a presentation that

335
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 2: was clearly designed for Kevin Durant's, like one of the

336
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 2: other sweat under Armour, because that's a Maryland company and

337
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 2: they were they were trying to work there.

338
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: Maryland cred with Kevin Durant at the time.

339
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,679
Speaker 2: Anyway, It's yeah, hey, you can might just might just

340
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 2: be gross incompetence, but it also just feels like, I

341
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 2: don't know, let's be less certain of our of our

342
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 2: bad decisions running up the chain. Folks just might move wrong.

343
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: What's odd enough? This has been one of the few

344
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,879
Speaker 1: times I've been ashamed as a Laker fan for getting

345
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 1: a player.

346
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm like, oh man, yeah, usually this is what

347
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 2: Laker fans expect. Laker fans are just like.

348
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 1: If you listen to Boosy's last season, I was like,

349
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:19,159
Speaker 1: come home, Luca, come home Luca, right, but you were

350
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: saying it as a bit I mean, I say that

351
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 1: as like with my Lakers arrogance. But then I'm like,

352
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,239
Speaker 1: now I sound like homegirling matrix because I'm like, no,

353
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:31,120
Speaker 1: like this, not like this. I didn't I don't want

354
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 1: that for y'all. No, no, no, but anyway, yeah, here

355
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 1: we are.

356
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 2: Anyways, you'll be enjoying it for the next decade. Yeah yeah, yeah,

357
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 2: I don't know, like something like it. But like even

358
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 2: the question, like people are like, all right, if he

359
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 2: has a terminal illness, this makes sense. But then like

360
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,159
Speaker 2: you'd have to go through a physical Yeah, you go

361
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 2: through physical, the trade will be ruined, like the trade

362
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 2: wouldn't actually happen, so like that, even that doesn't make sense.

363
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 1: Look, this is I'm I'm guessing there's gonna be some

364
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: textures that emerge from this that will be very very

365
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 1: eye opening. Or we'll also see that casuals everything around us.

366
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. One of the theories is the Andlesen family

367
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 2: who took over ownership last year. Basically they want to

368
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 2: turn the Dallas Sports Arena into a casino and they're

369
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 2: having trouble getting it through the Texas legislature. And also

370
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 2: Dallas is too good to like threaten to move them,

371
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 2: and that's like one of the ways that people leverage

372
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 2: professional sports franchises, being like well, we'll move you to

373
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,239
Speaker 2: a different place. And so they're threatening to move them

374
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 2: to Las Vegas. So the theory is that they're just

375
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:43,239
Speaker 2: doing the plot from Major League and yeah, you know

376
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 2: Tank god job.

377
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: He got blown out by I think forty three points

378
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: against the Calves. Yeah too.

379
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was crazy. They're down like sixty at one point.

380
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh that halftime score. I was like, yeah, oh

381
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 1: y'all they already have ninety points.

382
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

383
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: Well, also something he thinks under it under raided pop corners.

384
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 2: Ever had corners?

385
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,639
Speaker 1: And they're like they're like rice cakes flattened into like

386
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 1: Dorito's style triangles.

387
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I have had the kettle.

388
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 1: Corn flavor specifically. So I got a bag of these

389
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: as a part of Sorry your House Burned Down gift

390
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 1: bag shout out to the That was a great gift

391
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: bag though, because I don't know if it's the trauma

392
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 1: or the flavor, but I love these things now. They

393
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: are fucking so good. I bought the biggest fucking I

394
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: went to the store about the biggest fucking bag, and

395
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 1: I got through half of that so quickly. I almost

396
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: felt like someone who like turns into a werewolf from

397
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: like I need to chain myself.

398
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 2: To a radiator, so I get away from these things.

399
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, like like Seth Green and Buffy the Vampires

400
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 1: Layer like this.

401
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I can't.

402
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: Like I can't like when I when I, when I

403
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 1: do the thing where I'm time traveling through snacking, I'm like, oh,

404
00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: something's up, something, let's not let's.

405
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 2: Let's in here for forty five minutes.

406
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then to bring it back to the fire again,

407
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 1: just underrated. How intense the trauma of your house burning

408
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:13,719
Speaker 1: down is. I must say, the whole moment is surreal. Okay,

409
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 1: I'm not the same. I don't know when I will

410
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 1: be the same. My assumptive reality, you know, the presumed

411
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: future for my family has completely is in literal ashes.

412
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,400
Speaker 1: That's very jarring and in a way, I don't know

413
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: it like it's hardened me in a hopefully the right

414
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,679
Speaker 1: ways to sort of face the challenges that life is

415
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: going to be, you know, throwing our way just for

416
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: the coming decades. But like the part about like you know,

417
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: moving to a place like obviously my kid grew up here,

418
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 1: maybe kids who knows whatever that to for that that

419
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: vision to be completely wiped out of your mind completely,

420
00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: because look, alta Dina is gone, like it's gone. The

421
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: blocks around me are fully flattened, Like you can look

422
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 1: your line of sight uninterrupted because of the lack of

423
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 1: structures there is. It's fucking it's freaky. So that's just

424
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 1: been a huge mind fuck. I don't recommend it if

425
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 1: you if you can avoid it, please do.

426
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 2: It ranked pretty low on trip Advisor for things to

427
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,640
Speaker 2: do in Los Angeles.

428
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,479
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, b present for l once in a one

429
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: hundred years windstorm that then exacerbates wildfire. But anyway, I

430
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 1: will say, but the other part of that too, is

431
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: just amidst all of that. Like again, like I said

432
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: up top, what we've been shown is so wild, like

433
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: it's it's just I'm feeling like both extremes at the

434
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: same time, like of extreme loss and extreme gratitude for

435
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 1: what I have that I'm just trying to I'm trying

436
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: to get to the middle ish. But yeah, it's just

437
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: a because like you always see shit like this and

438
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 1: like the movies, you know, this is us that TV show, Yeah,

439
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 1: you know that famously burnt their house burned down a

440
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: crockpot fire. But there's like a I don't know, they

441
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: don't even know how to articulate it. It's just crazy.

442
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: It's crazy. It's crazy, But I'm just glad. I'm like trying,

443
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: like I'm We've got like a place to stay, thank god,

444
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,719
Speaker 1: and we're not getting price gouged, thank god. Because the

445
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: fucking LA is filled with pieces of shit and also

446
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 1: the greatest people at this I feel like any place

447
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: in America, it's simultaneous as like some of the biggest

448
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 1: pieces of shit and also mostly the nicest human beings

449
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 1: I've ever been around. So those things are like settled,

450
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 1: and now that like we have a sense of like

451
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 1: stability to operate from like shelter and like childcare, like

452
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: you know, the guy's child is now in a place

453
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: where he can go and like sort of build new relationships.

454
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 1: Now that those things are there, like I feel like

455
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: I can really put my feet down and start doing

456
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 1: this shit again. But anyway, and so I am so

457
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: feels good. Feels good. It feels good, and I look,

458
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm gonna make weird jokes about my house

459
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: burning down because that's how I process things. I don't know,

460
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: if you listen to the show. I've never been able

461
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: to hold my tongue, and I make bad timing jokes

462
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 1: as it relates to trauma. That's just how I process things,

463
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: and hopefully it makes a little bit easier for y'all

464
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 1: because it makes it easier for me. It will allow it.

465
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,400
Speaker 2: All right, let's uh, let's take a quick break. We'll

466
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 2: come back. We'll do our overrateds and get to a

467
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:26,119

Speaker 1: We'll be right back.

469
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,239
Speaker 2: And we're back, all right. Uh so we did our

470
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 2: underrated right. Underrated was humility trauma of having your house

471
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 2: burned down? Yeah, powner, sorry, sorry, it doesn't mean to look.

472
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 1: At pop corners houseburd down trauma. That's right, all right?

473
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,719
Speaker 2: Overrated. Uh. I gotta give it to my skills as

474
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 2: a man and as a father.

475
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,400
Speaker 1: Op rated.

476
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 2: I had the Pinewood Derby for my youngest kids cub

Speaker 2: like they create great ship Like what what was a tiger?

494
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 2: What was a shark shaped thing? Just really rubbed it

495
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 2: in my face as a Jaws head.

496
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,439
Speaker 1: You went to the toy store and got like the

497
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: fifty decals that you like, I got the cow like, ah,

Speaker 1: we got elephants again, Hold on the next one, probably sharks.

499
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: Want to give me fifty more fifty more cents? Ah,

500
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 1: why is it so random? Get the one you want?

501
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 2: The stickers and the little thing outside of.

502
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 1: The little cardboards.

503
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exact Kroger Parking. Anyways, you know, we worked

504
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 2: on it together. I watched hour of YouTube videos on

505
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 2: like how to you know, not not I won't say hours,

506
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 2: but polished some axles, gave them a little bend, which

507
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 2: is something that you're supposed to do. Uh, and I

508
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 2: fucked it up his his car. The back wheels fell off.

509
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 2: How exactly that's a great question. Miles overlooked my skills

510
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 2: with the glue gun and did not glue gun the

511
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 2: axle on hard enough. And so my strategy going in was, Hey,

512
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 2: we might not win this thing, but the important thing

513
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 2: is that you now have this cool car that we

514
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 2: built together, and you'll have that for the rest of

515
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 2: your life. And immediately second heat, the car's fucking wheels

516
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 2: fall off. Hey's sobbing. I'm sobbing. It was. Yeah, it

517
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 2: was not exactly.

518
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: I'm the one who took l so publicly. O poor kid,

519
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: My god, next year.

520
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 2: Next week, exactly this. My older son cares much less

521
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 2: about it. His car like came in third in his

522
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 2: race the next day. So it's just I think I

523
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 2: wanted it too bad, you know what I mean.

524
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what happens. Also, you know, it's just don't

525
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: you know, let that be your child's experience, you know,

526
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: that's right. Maybe you inserted yourself a little too much.

527
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: Jack made it about yourself.

528
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did.

529
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: I was like, you're crying, crying, he's trying to.

530
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 2: Cheer me up. No, it's no failure.

531
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: Mister Jack, Like, please don't swear in front of the kids.

532
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 2: You too, Miles, not that far energetically from what was happening.

533
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 2: It was definitely like me taking it as hard as him,

534
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 2: Like you're smoking his cigarette and ship it was like, man,

535
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 2: Jack really seems like he's on edge.

536
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: Where do you get those cigarettes?

537
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 2: Yeah? I am always quick to apologize whenever I fun.

538
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 2: I'm like, look, man, sorry about that. That was That

539
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 2: was no good. So hopefully that works. I don't know,

540
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 2: maybe it just makes them be like Dad's unstable. But

541
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 2: every time I suck up, I'm always like, all right,

542
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 2: so daddy got got in a weird place there about

543
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 2: the Pinewood Derby, and I apologize. But anyways, we'll get

544
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 2: him next year.

545
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, Hell yeah you will.

546
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 2: What's uh? What's something? Miles? He thinks over at him,

547
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 2: stuff just having stuff? Stuff? You know what? Do not

548
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 2: study for?

549
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 1: This?

550
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 2: Part? Sounds like an answer I would give.

551
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: I believe stuff is overrated. To burden oneself with physical

552
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 1: items can lead to a disconnection from what is actually

553
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 1: the most valuable in couin greg human existence if I may, Yeah,

554
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: I mean it's just like the weirdest thing about this

555
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: is like the grieving period for my physical possessions was

556
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: maybe the shortest m Like, yeah, I got over that

557
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: a lot quicker than I did the everything else. Like

558
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 1: the displacement is like the hardest fucking thing, and like

559
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: the loss of your concept of community and home.

560
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like you're in a community one day and then

561
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 2: the next day you're just in.

562
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: It doesn't exist. It's not like and it's different when

563
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, we had to move out of that

564
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: neighborhood because of X, Y or Z. It's like, you know,

565
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: the neighborhood is no more, and the people there are

566
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: displaced also and also shaking their fists at the sky

567
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 1: trying to figure out what's going on. But I also

568
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: felt like oddly liberated from not having a bunch of shit. Yeah,

569
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 1: even though many of those things had very deep meaning

570
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 1: and value to me, Like I lost all of the

571
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: music that I made, I lost all of my instruments,

572
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: all of my beloved Arsenal and Lakers jerseys, my fucking

573
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: photos and weird videos I made throughout my twenties that

574
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 1: were on hard drives. Like that's all gone, and like

575
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: when those things are taken away from you, you emerge

576
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: with a much deeper sense of like the overall concept

577
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: of what you just call value. So I have no

578
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 1: hats anymore, so I won't be wearing as many hats.

579
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 2: You had an incredible clicktion.

580
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: Oh, really incredible, And when you start adding up the

581
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: money that you spent on it, then you start going,

582
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: what the fuck?

583
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 2: Uh, mister is here on this insurance form the thirteen.

584
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: Thousand dollars in hats? Yeah, dude, and not upside down

585
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: on a lot of them. Man. I still I was

586
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: taking out loans to get some of these hats, my

587
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: hat loans. Oh boy, I'm fucked, babe. We are fucked

588
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: for these hat loans. But it's just also interesting because

589
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: I'm taking this also as like a punctuation in my life. Obviously,

590
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 1: how could I not. Yeah, but I'm definitely in the

591
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: process of gaining an intense wisdom that I'm still processing.

592
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 1: And as I've told people, I basically did the most

593
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: wild version of Marie Condo. Uh does it spark joy

594
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: that you've ever done in your fucking life?

595
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 2: Jesus?

596
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know, like it was kind of

597
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: for all this stuff, like all the family heirlooms, like

598
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: handwritten things that like my grandparents had, and like those

599
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 1: kinds of stuff you start to realize too, like you

600
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:14,279
Speaker 1: have to kind of think to yourself also, like if

601
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 1: my grandparents were alive and I told them I lost

602
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: that note that you wrote, you know that that burned

603
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: up and I felt so terrible about it. I had

604
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 1: to really kind of like try and tap into that

605
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: wisdom of what they would say to me, which is

606
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 1: like you're alive, Like you're surviving. Like the whole point

607
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 1: of what I toiled through and what I had to suffer,

608
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,399
Speaker 1: what my grandparents had to suffer, what their grandparents had

609
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: to suffer, was to get to a place where the

610
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 1: descendants live and can thrive. Those objects that is not

611
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: that isn't that doesn't define my relationship to my family.

612
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: If those things are much deeper, it's the memories that

613
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: I have, because those are the most intense things. Those

614
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: are just merely objects that can help resurrect these memories.

615
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 1: But those memories are contained with in me, and I

616
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: can imbue that same sense of value into other things

617
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 1: that aren't necessarily like the literal objects that they handled.

618
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean like there's just there's just a

619
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 1: lot like uh, but yeah, the stuff part of it,

620
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:13,839
Speaker 1: it is what it is.

621
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 2: It is, Yeah, passing those stories and memories and values

622
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:22,360
Speaker 2: on to you know, other generations, and you know, I

623
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 2: feel like you know, and those values in particular come

624
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 2: across and who you are you know.

625
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean again, like it forces this very

626
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: intense process of like introspection that I'm also grateful for

627
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 1: because before that they're just merely thought experiments. A lot

628
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 1: of the times you do think of things like what

629
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,240
Speaker 1: if I to leave, Like what would I take or whatever? Yeah,

630
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: and what what how what would I do if it

631
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: didn't a lot of people? Or like I don't know

632
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:48,800
Speaker 1: what I would do if I was in your position.

633
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: I mean, human beings are very resilient, and I think

634
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,800
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, we weren't wired to

635
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:59,359
Speaker 1: fall apart when our trink gets vanish, right. It's our

636
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: sense of commune unity, our sense of belonging like love.

637
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 1: Those are the things that are that kind of make

638
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 1: our human existence really meaningful. And what I've gained in

639
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 1: those aspects are tremendous and completely offset what I even

640
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 1: felt the value was of, like the physical objects that

641
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,399
Speaker 1: I lost. So I'm in the process of being very

642
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 1: trying to be as grateful as possible for that, although

643
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 1: not not the ideal way I would arrive at that,

644
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: but but I do.

645
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 2: I would have written it.

646
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 1: But you know, like a couple of notes for you God.

647
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,879
Speaker 2: All right, let's uh, let's take one more break, we'll

648
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 2: come back. We'll we'll dig into some stories. We'll be back.

649
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: And we're back.

650
00:36:56,480 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 2: And what the Wall Street Journal has deemed the dumbest

651
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 2: trade war in history is upon us. But before we

652
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:10,839
Speaker 2: get into all the trade ship the tariffs, you know,

653
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 2: because we're we're big Episode one Phantom Menace fans, so

654
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:21,439
Speaker 2: we we love talking tariffs and trade routes and trade wars,

655
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 2: trade federations, trade federations can't get orientalism. Also thing for me.

656
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:36,360
Speaker 2: But uh, before we get into I guess like, so,

657
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 2: you haven't had a ton of time, but you've been

658
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 2: like viewing the events of the past three four weeks

659
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:46,720
Speaker 2: from a distance. I'm just curious.

660
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: It's like doctor Manhattan to exist. I've gone to Mars

661
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,280
Speaker 1: to sort of take a take a quick five minute

662
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 1: breather but I've been viewing things from Mars with a

663
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 1: hydrogen atom uh emblazoned on my forehead.

664
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it looks good by the way you're pulling

665
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:04,919
Speaker 2: it off.

666
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 1: Thanks, it's marker. Still, I didn't have the courage to

667
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 1: actually burn it into my skin, but I'm thinking about it.

668
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: It could look cool. I just don't know if it'll

669
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: turn to a kiloid or not. But anyway, yeah, I have.

670
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 1: I've heard tell of the of the tariffs, and then

671
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,879
Speaker 1: I heard of the retaliatory tariffs, and then I saw

672
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 1: headlines from Republicans are getting a little weak in the

673
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: knees now because they're like, oh, like this hurts like

674
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 1: rich people too, and like it turns out like the

675
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 1: gas could also directly hit my community the hardest in

676
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: the Midwest. Well, it's just funny. Yeah, So I've I mean, yeah,

677
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 1: I guess in that sense, I'm probably still more informed

678
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 1: than the average Trump voter.

679
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 2: Any anything, because you miss I mean, you missed the inauguration,

680
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 2: and you missed Elon Musk Hling Hitler, and just.

681
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 1: I didn't miss actually any of that. I didn't miss

682
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 1: the back to back. Y m c A performs his

683
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 1: from the Village people, Oh I saw it's weird, even

684
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: though I'm like, I don't even know what the fuck's

685
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:10,840
Speaker 1: going on. I I have this terrible habit of having

686
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 1: to want to know what's going on, even though I'm

687
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: also trying to figure out the value of an old

688
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:20,320
Speaker 1: jacket that is, like spoke from the fifties that the

689
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:21,160
Speaker 1: grandfer known.

690
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 2: Ye.

691
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: So, yeah, I guess it's like it's just more of

692
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: the oh, you know what it really is. It's the

693
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 1: I just wasn't on social media. I think that's the

694
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 1: biggest thing, and it's good and bad. I mean, like

695
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 1: I've I definitely like since using Blue Sky, I read

696
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:36,359
Speaker 1: that I get to read the stuff that i'd want,

697
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 1: like I hear from the people i'd want to hear from.

698
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:38,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

699
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 1: So I guess it's like the commentary around the headlines

700
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: that I've not really seen much of. But also like

701
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: every moment, like for example, when the fucking Hyle Hitler

702
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: shit happened at the inauguration or on an inauguration day,

703
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 1: that was definitely a moment when I go, Okay, well,

704
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: I don't have time for this shit. I got to

705
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: figure out where the fuck my kids can go to school, right, Yeah,

706
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,720
Speaker 1: I definitely would like I would see I would brush

707
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 1: up against reality and go not today, Satan. No, I

708
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,479
Speaker 1: wasn't joking. When I saw that clip from the video

709
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 1: episode if y'all talking about the Roseanne bar wrap thing,

710
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, this might be it for me.

711
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: I don't think might have to be. I'm fully off

712
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,359
Speaker 1: this now because I have to do other things. So yeah,

713
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 1: it's like it's a weird relationship with reality. I haven't

714
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 1: quite gone full ignorance is bliss, because ignorance is not bliss.

715
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 1: So as much as I've I'm not. My heads weren't

716
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:33,799
Speaker 1: in the books like they normally are when I'm doing

717
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: the show all the time. It was enough to still

718
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,879
Speaker 1: augment the sense of terror that I had from dealing

719
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 1: with the fall out of a terrible wildfire.

720
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,839
Speaker 2: Oh good, Yeah, well, I just wanted to make sure

721
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:47,240
Speaker 2: that you had that drip, that ivy drip of terror.

722
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 1: Yeah you got to go.

723
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, So we knew the Trump two point

724
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 2: I was going to be bad. Purposefully torpedoing the economy

725
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:01,280
Speaker 2: while planes are literally falling from the sky is probably

726
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 2: worse than people imagined. Again, the accelerationists might be like,

727
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:10,280
Speaker 2: oh I didn't see this particular version of things going

728
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 2: this direction, or maybe they didn't think it's worth it.

729
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 2: But he followed through on threats to hit the countries

730
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,799
Speaker 2: to top trading partners Canada, Mexico with a twenty five

731
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 2: percent tariff and a ten percent tariff on China. And

732
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 2: you know he's in trouble when the Wall Street journal

733
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 2: is calling it quote the dumbest trade war in history

734
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:35,720
Speaker 2: in headlines. Yeah. Just feel like we've talked before about

735
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 2: how tariffs are a blunt instrument, Like you get a

736
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 2: response from tariffs, like one specific response from tariff, but

737
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 2: it's like trying to fix a complicated machine with only

738
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 2: a hammer, right. You know I do tool metaphors now

739
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:55,239
Speaker 2: that i'd time on a Pinewood Derby car.

740
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 1: What about glue gun metaphors?

741
00:41:58,400 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean this guy doesn't even have a guy

742
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 2: damn glue gun.

743
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, he thought he could go and heat up the

744
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,400
Speaker 1: glue stick enough that it would stick. Wait, does that

745
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 1: not how those work? Okay? I got another YouTube video

746
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 1: for it to wash. Yeah, Like it's one of those

747
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: things where it makes sense on paper if you strip

748
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,799
Speaker 1: out any context or nuance, and like much like your

749
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 1: hammer metaphor, it's like, yeah, I don't know, like banging

750
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:25,880
Speaker 1: the shit out of it like with a TV like

751
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,360
Speaker 1: back in the days, like it might work. Yeah, you

752
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: might also fuck it up worse. But I think they're

753
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: they're living off the well it might work. And I

754
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,319
Speaker 1: think that's what kind of brings me to like what

755
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:40,240
Speaker 1: the fuck is he actually doing here? Because I don't

756
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 1: believe that this heat his America for that's all bullshit.

757
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 1: He's not interested in making anyone's fucking life better except

758
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 1: for his own. So this is all like rhetoric for what.

759
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 1: And you know, like like the one thing from just

760
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:01,279
Speaker 1: his own words is that he's deaf into like being

761
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: like the second coming of like William McKinley, who was

762
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:09,240
Speaker 1: like the last president eident. And we ain't doing income tax.

763
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: We ain't doing an income tax, right because like in

764
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: the nineteen hundreds, federal income tax, like federal revenues were

765
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 1: coming from tariffs and that's and like and then then

766
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,319
Speaker 1: and like you know that that was sort of like

767
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 1: the main way to raise revenues for the federal government.

768
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 1: So then this feels like a long term way to

769
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 1: make the conservative wet dream of no more income tax

770
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,919
Speaker 1: or reality. But then if that's the case, what's going

771
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 1: on with these tariffs? Because we saw what happened, Like

772
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,279
Speaker 1: the reason the Wall Street journals like this is the

773
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 1: dumbest trade wherever, it's because look, the stock market took

774
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 1: a shit last week, okay, and this is clearly that

775
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,720
Speaker 1: all of this is having to do with the tariffs now,

776
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,879
Speaker 1: is that it looks right now that the wealthiest are

777
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 1: the hardest to be hit because they love the stalks.

778
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:56,760
Speaker 1: Normal people they're not as tied up in the stock market.

779
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,840
Speaker 1: So really that pain is going to come from inflation

780
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:03,360
Speaker 1: and diluted purchasing power that comes as a result of

781
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,839
Speaker 1: these tariffs and higher prices. But because he doesn't give

782
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 1: a fuck about anyone except himself, that Timothy Noah the

783
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 1: New Republic raised an interesting point that this has the

784
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,359
Speaker 1: trappings of a very trump asque shakedown of other billionaires.

785
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 1: So Trump has money problems, right, and he's currently pushing

786
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 1: a meme coin with many people holding lots and lots

787
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:29,720
Speaker 1: of millions of dollars in this coin, which is basically

788
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:33,320
Speaker 1: like a fun way to get Trump little little payments,

789
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 1: little thank you gifts, right, And I think just it's

790
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,360
Speaker 1: looking like this whole thing with the tariffs and like

791
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: certain industries being protected over not is also just like

792
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 1: a pseudo mafioso tactic of a sort of like nice economy,

793
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,400
Speaker 1: you got here, be terrible if tariffs fucked all that

794
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 1: up for you, and then from there get people to

795
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,319
Speaker 1: fall in line. But I don't know, like that's that's

796
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 1: one dimension of it, because like when people are like,

797
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 1: this is not how he's gonna change things things better,

798
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:04,239
Speaker 1: Like that's not stop acting like he's doing it for that.

799
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not his motivation at all, not to make

800
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 2: things better for people. And it does feel like an

801
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 2: opposition that makes that point repeatedly would be helpful. I

802
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:17,880
Speaker 2: don't know how that's going, but it does feel like,

803
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 2: I don't know, the things are getting really bad. He's

804
00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 2: doing things that should be wildly unpopular with people, attacking medicare, medicaid,

805
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 2: you know, fucking do just making everything more expensive, and

806
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,440
Speaker 2: even if it fucking only hits Wall Street, you know,

807
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 2: corporations love to, you know, send that pressure downstream to

808
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 2: people and like fire people take away for a one k,

809
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 2: you know, all all the all the shit that people

810
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 2: are going to feel that there's no corporation. That's like, well,

811
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,560
Speaker 2: we're just gonna have to tighten our belts up here

812
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:58,279
Speaker 2: and not down below, like that tightening belts means they're

813
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 2: going to fuck people. Yeah, it's just and like right now,

814
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 2: like there's just more INFI James literally James Carvell, the carle.

815
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: Why is he still talking. He's like the fact that

816
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: they the fact that you put a Kamala Harris the

817
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 1: road for the president. There's like playing in a sun

818
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 1: string quarterback in the super Bowl.

819
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 2: He said that.

820
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 1: That's what he just said. This is a fucking quote

821
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 1: from him just now from this morning. I just read.

822
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 2: Confident.

823
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:23,400
Speaker 1: And then he goes back, he's like, well, yeah, President

824
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:27,359
Speaker 1: Biden is to blame. Okay, first of all, assholes, all

825
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,799
Speaker 1: of you fucks are to blame. So miss me with

826
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:34,279
Speaker 1: all this ship and get to the fucking point where

827
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 1: you actually stand up to this ship. Because man, to

828
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 1: all these Democrats, they're still worried about their fucking careers

829
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 1: in Congress rather than doing the right thing. That's what's

830
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,880
Speaker 1: the most terrifying thing to me. These people aren't willing.

831
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 1: Most of these people are not willing to fight. There

832
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,279
Speaker 1: are something that clearly are, but most of the people

833
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 1: in leadership, they're still thinking long term. They're like, how

834
00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 1: do I fucking how do I duck this ship? How

835
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:56,880
Speaker 1: do I bob and weave? When it's like, bro, you

836
00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:00,840
Speaker 1: need to fucking stand up and do something. But again, please, people,

837
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 1: please keep this in mind as we try to rest

838
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:09,399
Speaker 1: control of whatever progressive minded people want to have as

839
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 1: representatives in Congress, because these people are not going to

840
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,360
Speaker 1: fucking do it, and they're continuing to fucking disappoint. I know,

841
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 1: Hakim Jeffreys just introduced some kind of ten point battle

842
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 1: plan to fight Trump. I'm sure we'll talk about that later.

843
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's just we're just we're looking at a

844
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:30,719
Speaker 1: very very unwilling opposition party in the Democrats.

845
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like tariffs might be the one place

846
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,440
Speaker 2: that they get their shit together on because the Democrats

847
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:39,880
Speaker 2: are the party of corporations, and corporations stand to lose

848
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 2: so much here that, you know, whereas well.

849
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 1: They are the party of the status quo. It's certainly

850
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,279
Speaker 1: certainly a threat to the status quo. Not in the

851
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:52,399
Speaker 1: positive direction, but it's a disruption. And yeah, maybe they

852
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,319
Speaker 1: maybe they'll get their marching orders from the donor soon enough.

853
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 2: But There's this one like exchange where people asked if

854
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 2: he was going to impost Harris on the europeinionion. He

855
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:03,640
Speaker 2: was like, am I going to impost Harris on their

856
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,240
Speaker 2: European Union? Do you want the truthful answer? Or should

857
00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 2: I give you a political answer? Absolutely? Absolutely? The European

858
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 2: Union has treated us so terribly. It just he seems

859
00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 2: like he's so like that is also a big part

860
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 2: of the story is him getting to be up there

861
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 2: and act like a king tough, you know, like act

862
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:27,560
Speaker 2: like should I should not? I don't know, so you will,

863
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 2: I won't. I let me put it this way.

864
00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:33,799
Speaker 1: Yeah. Famously, I walked out of Anger Management because the

865
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,880
Speaker 1: movie was so bad. I couldn't even stand it. Oh

866
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 1: so you're a tough guy. Huh.

867
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:42,560
Speaker 2: Yeah. It feels like his reason for doing it is

868
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 2: getting to give that answer and feel powerful. In a

869
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:47,279
Speaker 2: lot of these cases.

870
00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 1: Because it's so disjointed from anything, it's like, oh God,

871
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 1: the senile old man from the campaign is the president

872
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 1: and now doing senile fuck shit. Yeah, and just being

873
00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 1: like yeah, everybody, everybody can come get it. And then

874
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: when shit actually happens and he's like, oh, wait, they're

875
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,840
Speaker 1: gonna there's more countries than the US that would band

876
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 1: together to try and fucking fight US. Oh and now

877
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:15,480
Speaker 1: that we're seeing like all of these in kind retaliatory tariffs,

878
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 1: like he's been starting to fucking wobble.

879
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:21,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny. The one thing we've been noticing is

880
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:26,320
Speaker 2: like the way the media covers the other country retaliates

881
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 2: or you know, pushes back or his fucked up policy

882
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:34,920
Speaker 2: has like terrible effects and people, you know, like with Columbia,

883
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,080
Speaker 2: it was like the price of coffee, like shot through

884
00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 2: the roof, and like, right, he finds a way to

885
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:42,719
Speaker 2: be like they actually gave in, they were scared of me.

886
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:45,719
Speaker 2: They big win for Trump, and like the media just

887
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:47,799
Speaker 2: kind of goes along with it. And that feels like

888
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 2: what's happening with Mexico pausing, Like they said that they

889
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 2: would put troops on the border to aid with the

890
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,719
Speaker 2: and I don't know if they if Shinbaum did this

891
00:49:57,840 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 2: in scare quotes or not, but it was like to

892
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:01,840
Speaker 2: aid with the sentinel trade.

893
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:03,759
Speaker 1: No, I don't think she's scare quote. She did the

894
00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:04,719
Speaker 1: jerk off motion.

895
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:08,440
Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah, well put ten thousand at the border.

896
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:11,840
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, there you go, And uh, anything else Anyways,

897
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 2: he was like, we want we can lower the Mexican tariffs,

898
00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:18,759
Speaker 2: but it's also probably because the stock marker was taking

899
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 2: a ship, and that is truly who he answers to.

900
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 2: Like all American politicians like the thing that people who

901
00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 2: elected an authoritarian like a lot of this energy for

902
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,840
Speaker 2: people being like, we need an authoritarian, somebody who's outside

903
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:37,920
Speaker 2: of the mainstream, who's not a career politician. What they

904
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:39,720
Speaker 2: mean is like, we need somebody who's going to stand

905
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:45,080
Speaker 2: up to corporations and like that is not him. Yeah,

906
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:47,279
Speaker 2: that's that's not going to be him. He can do

907
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 2: shit that like is wild and scares them, but he's

908
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,960
Speaker 2: also I think going to back down quite a bit.

909
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 1: I mean this this happened a lot in his first administration.

910
00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 1: There was a big swings and he's like yeah, well

911
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,240
Speaker 1: and then enough time passes and then he just doesn't

912
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:05,480
Speaker 1: acknowledge the l and he's like yeah, yeah, yeah, I

913
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: mean it didn't matter if everyone's against me, and they've always.

914
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,839
Speaker 2: Been flooding the zone with shit, yah, flooding it.

915
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,480
Speaker 1: And I think that's another thing too, is this is

916
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:17,960
Speaker 1: all It was very disorienting to check in the news,

917
00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 1: like every two day three days. For me, that's about

918
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:22,839
Speaker 1: the pace I was doing while I was dealing with

919
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 1: everything else. My god, the amount of times I'm like,

920
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:31,279
Speaker 1: holy shit, what okay, holy shit? What Elon Musk is

921
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:35,239
Speaker 1: kicking people out of their offices and like physically removing

922
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 1: people so his goons can get access to computer systems.

923
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

924
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:44,520
Speaker 1: What? All that stuff too is meant to overwhelm us,

925
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,840
Speaker 1: and suddenly, in the midst of cash like, just please

926
00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:50,200
Speaker 1: settle onto something so I can deal with that. And

927
00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: I think that's one part that we should keep in mind,

928
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:55,239
Speaker 1: is that this is very much meant to try and

929
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 1: get us off of our our sense of like footing

930
00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:01,360
Speaker 1: here and knowing that fair is there is something normal

931
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,040
Speaker 1: that we actually need to be holding onto. But at

932
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,799
Speaker 1: the same time too it all of that happening too

933
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 1: just kind of remind me of the whole process of

934
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,239
Speaker 1: like losing your house and a fire, where you're kind

935
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 1: of it's such an extreme new normal that you're suddenly

936
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,880
Speaker 1: in the first stage of it is you're in denial

937
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:20,360
Speaker 1: about it. You're like, what the fuck's going on? There's

938
00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:23,719
Speaker 1: no way this is happening. There is no fucking way,

939
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,799
Speaker 1: And then very quickly you have to get to the

940
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:31,319
Speaker 1: acceptance phase, because it's not as empowering to say this

941
00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:34,120
Speaker 1: can't be happening, This can't be happening, this can't what's

942
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:36,799
Speaker 1: at least that's how I felt in dealing with my

943
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:39,800
Speaker 1: own crisis, was not going like, this can't be happening.

944
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,319
Speaker 1: What the fuck's going on? To it's happening? Now? What

945
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,960
Speaker 1: the fuck am I gonna do now? To fucking make

946
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 1: this okay? Make this easier for me? Build for the future. Yeah, create,

947
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 1: you know, more scaffolding to make myself more robust to

948
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,000
Speaker 1: defend myself from these things in the future. And I

949
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,279
Speaker 1: think that's where we need to get to collectively as

950
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:02,359
Speaker 1: a country, is to get off the like, what's going on?

951
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 1: Is this serially? Yes, it's fucking here, It's serious, it's here.

952
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:09,960
Speaker 1: But the more people that understand the assignment, which is

953
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,200
Speaker 1: no longer head scratching and being like is this guy

954
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 1: for real? And being like, this guy's for real? Now

955
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,560
Speaker 1: we need to also think about what we get behind

956
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:20,480
Speaker 1: and what our strategies are to defend against this. It'll

957
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:24,400
Speaker 1: it'll make it slightly easier. Yeah, Yeah, it's it's extremely

958
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 1: extremely destabilizing and chaotic, and yeah, like to the what

959
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,080
Speaker 1: they always say, flood the zone with shit. It's a

960
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 1: shit flood.

961
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:36,080
Speaker 2: It is a ship flood of Noah's proportions. Yeah, but yeah,

962
00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:39,280
Speaker 2: he he, he really went from I'll lower the price

963
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,000
Speaker 2: of eggs to You're gonna have to deal with some

964
00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 2: pain in a shockingly short period of time because he's

965
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:46,960
Speaker 2: he's being like, yeah, prices are going to go up,

966
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:51,640
Speaker 2: but uh, tough shit, it takes for me to swing

967
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:52,360
Speaker 2: the big hammer.

968
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:54,799
Speaker 1: And I'm sure you've seen these things where people like

969
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 1: clip out Twitter interactions or like you know, truth social

970
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:03,040
Speaker 1: interactions where small business owners are actually kind of realizing

971
00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:06,280
Speaker 1: how this is going to end their small business. Yeah,

972
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:07,920
Speaker 1: and like because you'll see people in their replies like,

973
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: christer President, I've been a fan. I've been a very

974
00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:13,799
Speaker 1: loyal supporter of you since, you know, since since day one.

975
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 1: And I just want to say that some of these

976
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:17,800
Speaker 1: things will raise the cost of materials I need for

977
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:19,600
Speaker 1: my business to the point where I may no longer

978
00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:21,520
Speaker 1: be able to run my family business that I've had

979
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,759
Speaker 1: for fifty years. And then you have other people be like,

980
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:27,280
Speaker 1: shut up, you fucking lib and they're like, it's man,

981
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,640
Speaker 1: I don't know but this shit will probably touch more

982
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 1: people in a way that they weren't expecting. And I'm

983
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:37,319
Speaker 1: sure that's the part that the one part accelerationists people,

984
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:39,319
Speaker 1: people who are celebrating were like, well, yeah, man, now

985
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 1: everybody's gonna fucking get it. And I mean, yeah, that's true.

986
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,360
Speaker 1: But what do we what do we do after that?

987
00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:48,880
Speaker 1: Because it's one thing if people, you know, feel the

988
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: pain of what this terrible leadership is like, and it's

989
00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:53,160
Speaker 1: another if like they just don't do anything about it

990
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,360
Speaker 1: and or just continue to just be like, yeah, well,

991
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:57,879
Speaker 1: I guess I'll just get in line because he beat

992
00:54:57,880 --> 00:54:59,760
Speaker 1: the shit out of me with his tariffs and stuff.

993
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,120
Speaker 2: Right right, all right, we'll leave it there for today.

994
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:06,520
Speaker 2: We're back tomorrow with no no. I want to keep

995
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 2: talking about what's wrong. We got Yeah, and if if,

996
00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 2: if you got somebody to get behind by all means,

997
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,360
Speaker 2: I would love to. Let's find that motherfucker.

998
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:20,440
Speaker 1: Let's just run for office, you know, let's do it.

999
00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, you run for Congress, I'll run for

1000
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,120
Speaker 1: and I'll run on a platform. I don't give a

1001
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:28,799
Speaker 1: fuck what they say, go ahead, primary, I don't give

1002
00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,319
Speaker 1: a fuck. But I'm here while I'm here, I'm here,

1003
00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:34,440
Speaker 1: Good fucking luck trying to get me to vote with y'all.

1004
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:37,480
Speaker 1: Fuck no, that's we need. We need that energy out there.

1005
00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:39,279
Speaker 1: That's the energy that I think people are going to

1006
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:41,920
Speaker 1: respond to. That also could just be me and my

1007
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,600
Speaker 1: mid traumatic episode days, but hey.

1008
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I think I think we need Yeah, somebody

1009
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 2: who is outside of the current system as it's existed

1010
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:58,160
Speaker 2: for the past. I don't know, lifetime, my lifetime, and

1011
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:02,239
Speaker 2: isn't using that power arbitrarily, you know, right, but is

1012
00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 2: using it to challenge the things that are making people's

1013
00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:05,640
Speaker 2: lives worse.

1014
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 1: We don't need people who want to be in Congress

1015
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:11,239
Speaker 1: who come outside of the typical group where people come

1016
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:13,319
Speaker 1: from that are in Congress, right. We need people who

1017
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:16,840
Speaker 1: are completely disconnected from the same value system as the

1018
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,840
Speaker 1: current like that the current Congress subscribes to, which is

1019
00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:22,239
Speaker 1: do whatever you can to stay in office. If that

1020
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:25,880
Speaker 1: means getting in line and completely going against your beliefs,

1021
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,080
Speaker 1: then I'll do that because I want to be in office,

1022
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:30,520
Speaker 1: like you need people to be Like, no, bro, use

1023
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:33,680
Speaker 1: your time at the wall to fucking do good and

1024
00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:36,000
Speaker 1: then maybe if your shifts up and then so be it.

1025
00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:37,560
Speaker 1: And then you send up the next people to do

1026
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:39,440
Speaker 1: their shift at the wall. And I don't mean the

1027
00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:41,680
Speaker 1: fucking border wall. I'm at the Knight's watch Bro game

Speaker 1: something like that that I completely made up in my mind.

1056
00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:56,880
Speaker 1: It would be things would be so much easier. Instead,
