00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of The

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:08,559
Speaker 1: Weekly Zeitgeist. These are some of our favorite segments from

3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 1: this week, all edited together into one NonStop infotainment last stravaganza.

4
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, So, without further ado, here is the Weekly

5
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: Zeitgeist and let me just crack my mountain dew. Zero

6
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 1: Baha blast that's right. Wait wait wait what what did

7
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 1: you say? What combination of words? Zero Baja blasting cans?

8
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 1: Cans is a little taco bell logo up in the corner.

9
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 1: It does not that's amazing. Oh my god, there was

10
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: only a twelve pack. A twelve pack at Ralph's when

11
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 1: I was buying food coloring for my son's school project.

12
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: There's a twelve pack coloring from my Baja blast the

13
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:21,839
Speaker 1: response to COVID that we needed. I'm wondering if this

14
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: is like it's like Zaltar and big and like I

15
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: just found the one like mystical example of this, or

16
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,119
Speaker 1: if they're actually like rolling this out. I mean, it's funny.

17
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: It shows up on the Walmart website and there's even

18
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 1: an option to add it to your wedding registry, so

19
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 1: you know our respect. Maybe I do want to get married.

20
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: Holy shit, Jack, are you like rationing it out? Are

21
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: you rationing it out? Like second one today? Wow? Okay,

22
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: I just the levels of the levels. The name of

23
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: this put me through because Mountain doing a can just

24
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: like feels good. Anyway, I did not know of the

25
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: Baja Blast in general was available in cans because I don't.

26
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: I don't. I honestly don't even know if I want

27
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: that information, because that is dangerous because right now it's

28
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: been like, well, that's my treat when I go through

29
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: a taco bell. But then you add the word zero

30
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: to the end of it. Yes, the sugar free Baha

31
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: does it? How does it stack up? Does it taste

32
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: like it? It tastes like it? Yeah, the Mountain Do

33
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: zero is very good. Dinda High, we have a I'm

34
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: so excited about this. Is this is the hope that

35
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,399
Speaker 1: I've needed to get me through the court. Okay, Yeah,

36
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: I mean Men in Black was cool and all, but

37
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: let's just kind of really get our heads. I mean,

38
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: based on I'm doing searches right now, it's popping up everywhere.

39
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: So in a way, I feel like I'm in denial

40
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: that something like I could be ignorant to the existence

41
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: of this product. And I'm like, I don't know, it's

42
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: got to be. Then I'm like, as I look, I'm like, no,

43
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: I just missed that. I think we're doing it just

44
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 1: with the zero to expose people to the Mountain Do

45
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: zero because they are having like that was clearly a

46
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: priority for them because they had that weird Brian Cranston

47
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: add where he plays Jack Nicholson from The Shining but

48
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,079
Speaker 1: there's Mountain Do zero for some reason, the mom from

49
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:13,079
Speaker 1: blackishes in it. And then but like maybe it wasn't

50
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: catching on, so they were like, all right, let's let's

51
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 1: put a no brainer, great product out there that everybody's

52
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: gonna clamor for. That would be my guy. Again. This

53
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: Baja Blast whole thing is a treasure trove of content

54
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: because even when I searched Mountain Do Baja Blast, I

55
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: can find reviews of the product, just just very narrowly

56
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,119
Speaker 1: of what it's like. This is one review I've read

57
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: great flavor. I first encountered this flavor of mountain dew

58
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: in a slush at Taco Bell. That was the beginning

59
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: of forever. It was a must that I try the

60
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: regular soda and it's a tent for me. I would

61
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 1: definitely recommend this soda for others to try. I absolutely

62
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: love it one more great taste, but still taste a

63
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: bit different than getting it from the fountain machine. Drink

64
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: it cold from the bottle because it doesn't taste the

65
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: same over a glass with ice, great color. Blend it

66
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: with some ice for a yummy smoothie. I would forget.

67
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: Smoothie is not the word. That's not smoothie, that's not

68
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: milk in that. I'm sorry, man, Samantha Gy. That was

69
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: Samantha Gy from review on Influenced dot Com Samantha gs

70
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: on Notice that's nasty, dude. There's being a Mountain dude

71
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: drinker for twelve to thirteen years, I can say that

72
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: Baja Blast is hands down the most enjoyable flavor I've experienced.

73
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: I'm always on the hunt to buy this stuff during

74
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: the warmer months. To me, it's well worth the money

75
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 1: if you like a fruity live flavor. My only complaint

76
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: is that they don't sell it here during the cold months.

77
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: This is I think we've we're in a We're dealing

78
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: with a whole another country. I feel like of our

79
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: mount due Baha Baha Blast. It's wow. I'm so excited.

80
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: I can't I'm going to go to a roupse for

81
00:04:54,760 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 1: the first time and forever. It's wild. Like this is

82
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: also not men and black related, but I did notice,

83
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: like as I was driving to the store with my

84
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: mask and gloves on, like there were just people walking

85
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: all over the place. I mean, the weather in l

86
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: a past couple of days has been really nice, but

87
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: people were just it was like, all right, enough with

88
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: this social distancing stuff. The weather is too nice for that,

89
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: so um not great to keep doing it. You gotta

90
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: keep doing it. I I honestly just check out the

91
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: Mound do Baha Blast reviews. They're the people are so like,

92
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: sincerely enthusiastic about it. One just starts off, Baja Blast

93
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: runs through my veins. It makes all of my stress

94
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: and worries disappear when it is my heartbreaks that one

95
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: read the user name on that it says the family

96
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: j O B. Have we thought about injecting Mountain do

97
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: Baha Blast zero into our veins? And which credit and lisol. Yeah,

98
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 1: you didn't say you should drink it. You just said

99
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: like maybe it'll clean out your blood like it's germs.

100
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Please the doctor Burke's face was so

101
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: painful to see during that moment. I lost five years

102
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: of my life from cringing so hard. That I do

103
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 1: love the human reflex of when you're hearing something that's

104
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: like impossible to mentally comprehend or just begin blinking incessantly

105
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 1: like it was. It was pretty awesome. Alright, guys, well,

106
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: let's talk about the continued fallout from what I think

107
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: is still Donald Trump's last press conference when he got

108
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: up there and started suggesting that people somehow inject UV

109
00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: radiation or bleach into their body to their lungs to

110
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: kill clorox, or that doctors should do that, and like,

111
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: on the one hand, it was like, that's just another

112
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: stupid thing being said by the president, but this one

113
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: seemed to, for whatever reason, be one that like even

114
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: his followers, even his base, like sort of wobble a

115
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: little bit and they were like, wait, what the fun? Yeah,

116
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 1: some people had to do the thing be like, no,

117
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: he meant to say that, so actually you look stupid

118
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: because you don't understand English is what he suggests. It's like, okay, please,

119
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: And I think again people need to realize what most

120
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: people responding to isn't the fact that he's saying ship like, oh, man,

121
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: like we gotta check out the Clorox remedies and things

122
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 1: and ship like that. It's that this man looks like

123
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: he's winging it on stage in the middle of a pandemic.

124
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: I could give a funk what he said. Specifically, it

125
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: does not inspire confidence in me to see the commander

126
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: in chief take the stage and then look around be like, hey,

127
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, should we look into this UV like stuff?

128
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: How about maybe Clorox? What are you doing in between

129
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: these things? Dude, shut the funk up. I'm you're gonna

130
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: say something. And I think that's why the White House

131
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: is now trying to pivot a bit to say, Okay,

132
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 1: we need to clearly this is fucking not working, um,

133
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: and we want to come out with just more focused

134
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: briefings because it's funny like the New York Times and

135
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: Washington Post kind of we're analyzing how Trump speaks during

136
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: these briefings, and they were just basically like, yeah, he

137
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: mostly used the time to like suck on his own

138
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: porcini dick during the fucking briefings, But like, you don't

139
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: need to analyze that to see like what you're seeing

140
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, he does. It's a ton of self praise,

141
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: it's a lot of blaming other people, uh, and absolutely

142
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: zero empathy. That's like the Yeah, somebody pointed out, like

143
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 1: towards the end of last week that like he just

144
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: hasn't said a single empathetic thing, And I had sort

145
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 1: of taken that for granted because he's clearly like just narcissistic,

146
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,599
Speaker 1: beyond the capability of feeling any sort of empathy for anything.

147
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: But it is wild to to imagine literally any other

148
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: president like and how like their their whole job would be,

149
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 1: you know, making it seem like the government is empathizing

150
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,079
Speaker 1: with them, like wow, while all the all these programs

151
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: are being put into place, but he is neither empathizing

152
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,839
Speaker 1: nor putting those programs into place. That seems like, well,

153
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: and you'd think that with now the death toll, uh,

154
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: they're saying it's gonna well very much likely surpassed the

155
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: death toll of the Vietnam War this week. That even then,

156
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: you know, like a question like that, it's like we're

157
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 1: looking at a tremendous loss of life, Like we're gonna

158
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: top sixty thousand pretty soon, which is like the fucking

159
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: kick ass. We did a great job number that Trump

160
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,839
Speaker 1: was talking about earlier, like maybe a month and a

161
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: half ago. But even in those moments, just fucking just

162
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: doesn't register. Tens of thousands of lives lost, just nothing.

163
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: Baby should play in China and like that that's all

164
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: they have. And what's interesting too, is there there was

165
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 1: this puff p in Political written today about Hope Hicks, uh,

166
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: you know, who left famously left the White House, who

167
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: was like the Trump whisper, and we had reported how

168
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 1: she had come back, and we're like, oh, that means

169
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 1: like they're having a hard time getting him under control.

170
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: The in this puff piece, a lot of the excerpts

171
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: just read like they're straight shit talking or just it

172
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 1: sounds like she completely is terrible at her job. Um,

173
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: I just want to read a couple of things because

174
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: some a lot of this is directly related to the

175
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: coronavirus response. It says for Hope Picks it marked a

176
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 1: challenge on like any other, trying to develop a communication

177
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: strategy for the president to carry with a wartime footing

178
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 1: in an election year. The former White House Communications director

179
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: urged the president to act as a frontman for the coronavirus,

180
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: a leader who could offer coming messages, critical health information,

181
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: and important updates on the progress of the White House's

182
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: response efforts, instead of delegating those responsibilities to health officials

183
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: or the Vice President. Then, this says, along with Kushner,

184
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: Miller and staff Secretary Derek Lyons, Hicks urged the President

185
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: to give an Oval Office address to the nation to

186
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:05,319
Speaker 1: convey the seriousness of the pandemic amid americans rising anxiety

187
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: and volatility in the stock market. That was the March

188
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 1: eleven speech that went so fucking bad because it was

189
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: poorly written, no one really vetted it, and he just

190
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: like they just let him do his thing. Again. This

191
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: is this is the work of whole Picks apparently. So

192
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: I mean to be fair in any like with literally

193
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: any other president, that would be the right answer. It's

194
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: just yeah, but you've been working with this man long

195
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: enough to know you shouldn't go up there and do that.

196
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: You just had you just got called on in the

197
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: pitch meeting, and you didn't come with anything. You said,

198
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, one of the one of the stories that

199
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: seems like it's getting a little bit of traction, uh

200
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: that we wanted to fact check is the idea that

201
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: Trump's Clarock speech was responsible for a bunch of calls

202
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 1: to poison control because people were saying there there was

203
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,559
Speaker 1: a a spike in calls the poison control. But there's

204
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 1: been articles fact checking in and it seems like you

205
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: can't necessarily tie the two because there's just been a

206
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 1: overall spike and caused the poison control because so many

207
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 1: people are like over disinfecting everything, Like people are like

208
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: dipping their groceries and bleach and ship, so everyone's uh,

209
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 1: there's just more of that going on in general, so

210
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: people like dippy and bleach exactly, pizza, it wouldn't be

211
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: as bad as like dipping an apple, and that's what

212
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: you don't want to do. Yeah, a piece of pizza.

213
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: It's the it's the big dipper from pizza hunt exactly.

214
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: In bleach pass around a bleach packet, that's right, I

215
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: mean people have to. I mean, I guess this clearly

216
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: shows that people aren't reading enough. One of the first

217
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 1: things I was thinking was this kind of stuff, like, okay, ship,

218
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: does this mean like I have to why my fucking

219
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: like anything maniacally when I bring it home to eat?

220
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: And a lot of experts, like transmission through food is

221
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: very low risk, but they still say, yeah, you can't

222
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: take precautions because absolutely the bacteria can live on all

223
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,839
Speaker 1: of these things. But like it's hard because I think

224
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: you see people just do It's like they either do

225
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: too little or absolutely too much. In the case of

226
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: like let me just spray down my food with Clorox

227
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: spray and then forget that, I'm actually going to ingest

228
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: that later. Yeah, our writer JM was pointing out it's

229
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,959
Speaker 1: not necessarily his Like, I mean, it is bad that

230
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: he's able to spread as much misinformation as he is,

231
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: but it's also and like this really surprising thing about

232
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: this one is his just susceptibility to believing misinformation is

233
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: really scary, Like that this is a very stupid thing

234
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:58,719
Speaker 1: that we can almost assume that likeent of the population

235
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't believe, but we can assumed that the president understands that.

236
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: And people were trying to figure out like where this

237
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: belief came from. Apparently, just days before Trump made that statement,

238
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: he got a letter from Mark Grennan, who is the

239
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 1: leader of the Genesis to Church of Health and Healing,

240
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 1: and he told Trump that drinking his chosen brand of

241
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: bleach that he sells can kill of the pathogens in

242
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: the body and can rid the body of COVID nineteen

243
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 1: and last week the FDA had obtained a federal injunction

244
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: to stop him from selling this ship. But yeah, they

245
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: think that their bleach can cure He's He's tried to

246
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: get his bleach used to cure anything from cancer to

247
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 1: HIV to autism to the common cold. And they're saying

248
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: that Trump his interaction with him, may have led him

249
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: to this conclusion. All we know is he got a

250
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: letter a couple of days before and that specific idea

251
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: somehow got into his head. He famously does not listen

252
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: to people. And even when he came to UM when

253
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: they asked him how he's going to go about reopening

254
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: the country, like, he kept saying that it was going

255
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: to be partly based on his instincts. Like he kept

256
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: saying that he's done. Like he really feels like he's got,

257
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: you know, the power to decide things, which which he

258
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: does no research whatsoever, So he doesn't listen to experts

259
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, now we're getting like the more literal

260
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: comparisons to a cult where the leader is saying straight

261
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: up nonsense and people like mmmmmmmmmm yep, inject the bleach.

262
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: That's right, that's what he's saying. And I trust him.

263
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: He's waiting for a sign. He trusts his gut. And

264
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 1: as I watched like the Waco thing, shout out to

265
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: the website wand Cat who have called these like boomers

266
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: who go out and demanding the lockdown be ended. They

267
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: called them the branch Covidians. That's hilarious because they really

268
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 1: are like looking at like, you know, David Koresh is

269
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: like I'm waiting for a sign from God before like

270
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: I have moved on acting these things like this and

271
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 1: the Trump thing. I was just saying, like I'm waiting

272
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: for my my guests to tell me something. And if

273
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: people really look at that and say, yeah, I'm gonna

274
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: go with that over science, like yeah, we're fully like

275
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: we're fully fully there now, you know, like not just

276
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: sort of like the like rhetorically being like yeah the

277
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: cult of Trump, Like no, we're now we're going on

278
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: things that are so I mean, so many things against

279
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: what is our I don't know, our accepted reality. But

280
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: when you go this far, it feels like we're we're

281
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: waiting we're waiting for the next miracle or spaceship or

282
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: some ship to come down. Yeah, Miles, you were researching

283
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: boomers in general and their struggles with core life. Yeah,

284
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: there's been a lot of articles like just kind of

285
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: talking with boomers because I think as these movements like

286
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: the ending the lockdown thing, like people are just trying

287
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: to get an idea of how people are feeling. Um.

288
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: But in the Daily Beasts they were raising a couple

289
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: of interesting things. I mean, overall, it seems like a

290
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 1: lot of baby boomers are getting they've hit they're trying

291
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: to hit a wall in terms of like how long

292
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 1: they can like stop living normally. There's like one woman

293
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: that they interviewed was like I'm just zoom zoom zoom

294
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 1: in all day like and it's not good enough, Like

295
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: I'd rather be there, Like I used to go here

296
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 1: and go do that, and I don't like this anymore.

297
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 1: And you know, if this woman was in her seventies,

298
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 1: she was like a retired teacher, and many younger past

299
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: students were offering to help her with groceries and things.

300
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: She has a husband who's seventy eight, and this is

301
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 1: like another thing. Even talking to my friends and anybody

302
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 1: seem like there's this this resistance to help from younger people. Um,

303
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: and you know, credit to everybody who's found a way

304
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: to help their elderly relatives or you know, neighbors out

305
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: that helps save them their pride. But they go on

306
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 1: to speak with an expert, like a professor of psychiatry

307
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: and behavioral sciences and a researcher on geriatric behavioral health

308
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: and just saying that like isolation and other research they've

309
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 1: done in terms of like the effects on the elderly

310
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: social isolation could be really really bad. And they just

311
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 1: say from you know, past studies that they've looked at,

312
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: they said, they have this very very intense need their

313
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: social interactions quote, Um, they need it beyond what they

314
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: get via media such as touch to feel they are

315
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,160
Speaker 1: in touch is very important. Quote. So functional decline could

316
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 1: be dramatic, meaning that their ability to perform their tasks

317
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: to take care of themselves could begin to decline. And

318
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: it was interesting on some of these interviews too, you'd

319
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 1: see people be like, oh, I think I have like

320
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: an ulcer maybe or I thought it was just like

321
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 1: like acid reflux, but it's gotten a lot worse and

322
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 1: I probably should have gone to the doctor, but I

323
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 1: didn't know. I didn't know if it was that bad

324
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: a deal and the COVID thing, and it's just and

325
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: so like you're hearing too from people not taking like

326
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 1: it's having certain effects that yeah, yeah, it's a lot

327
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: of this ship overlaps with depression, and like some of

328
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: like the quarantine is just like enforced depression, Like it's

329
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 1: I had to like force myself to start exercising because

330
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: like you really can like more easily, i'd say, fall

331
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,119
Speaker 1: into the behavioral patterns of just being like I mean,

332
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: I definitely did. I. I don't want to speak for

333
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 1: other people, but I definitely it was easier for me

334
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: to lapse into behavioral patterns that I've had with depression

335
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 1: then in other times when I can get out and

336
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 1: stuff outside of the house. It's been really interesting to

337
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: note in my own life how like you know, a

338
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: lot of my choices were based around like going outside,

339
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 1: like you know, like like there's there's like there's only

340
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: like I feel like there's only like a tenth of

341
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: my wardrobe by access right now, because like all the

342
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: rest of it was built around like going places and

343
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 1: seeing people and wanted to make sure they hadn't seen

344
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: me in the same thing, and like, you know, all

345
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 1: this this stuff that I wasn't even consciously thinking about

346
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 1: but was just like motivators of why I would make

347
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 1: certain decisions. And you say, like, it's it's really easy

348
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 1: to just fall into a pattern of like nothing matters, yeah,

349
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: which is which is a a very easily door for

350
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: depression to open and set in. Like I had to.

351
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: I had to, Like another reason I had started doing

352
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 1: that quarantine radio show was that I had to decide

353
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,120
Speaker 1: that it was Monday one Monday, so that I would

354
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: stop drinking. I had to like put an end to

355
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: the weekend weekend, right, you know. Yeah. Yeah. The other

356
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: things the other experts they were talking to, they were saying,

357
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: they were raising some alarming points. Now, granted, a lot

358
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 1: of the isolation research that's been done with the elderly

359
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 1: was done completely out of the context of this quarantine,

360
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 1: so they're not saying this is what's going to happen,

361
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 1: but they're saying, typically the effects of isolation can be really, really,

362
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: really terrifying. Then, like a recent study that they had

363
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: put out in terms of looking at elderly people who

364
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:02,199
Speaker 1: were going through chronic isolation. They said, increase in the

365
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: risk of death from cancer, increase in the risk for

366
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: heart disease, increase in stroke risk. So there's a lot

367
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,479
Speaker 1: of things that go along, like you know, with just

368
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 1: you know, when you take out that social dimension of

369
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: like life, it's really a lot of a lot of

370
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: bad things can happen for older people. So please check

371
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 1: in on elderly friends and family. I know a lot

372
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,879
Speaker 1: of people to have been saying their parents have started

373
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 1: watching more Fox News. People have not even started watching

374
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,880
Speaker 1: Foxes because Fox says the ship that they want to hear,

375
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: which okay, Boomer, more you okay, Boomer. I have a

376
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:46,159
Speaker 1: report from my neighborhood. There's a there's a um. The

377
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,160
Speaker 1: people who live across the street from me are older

378
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 1: and they have a They have a party every Sunday,

379
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: every Sunday. Like the first time I did it during quarantine,

380
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 1: Like they were super loud and like they're playing a

381
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 1: music super loud, and fucking helicopters came. It was like

382
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 1: hovering over the house and ship. But it didn't stop them.

383
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: They still do. It's still week. It is unbelievable. But

384
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 1: it's also it's like I can tell with them it

385
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: has hit a certain point where like they have they

386
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: have to be around each other. They have to like

387
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: it's just I think what I think, and it's kind

388
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: of what you're getting at to. It's like what they

389
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: lose when it comes to not being around each other.

390
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,360
Speaker 1: It's way more than you can quantify, which is like

391
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 1: you know, productivity or you know what I mean, Like

392
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: it just it means so much more to them because

393
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,199
Speaker 1: especially at a certain age, like if you're retired, like

394
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: traditionally like to end your retirement life too, because this

395
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: was shut down your post work social life that like

396
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 1: retirees have like pretty busy schedules in that way, And

397
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 1: so I'm sure it's probably really jarring for you know,

398
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 1: a seventh person their seventies to be like, but I

399
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: have all these things to make my life go longer

400
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 1: because I'm not working right now and I need this stimulation.

401
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think that's why a lot of there's

402
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 1: been a lot of talk about this quarantine fatigue that

403
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: we've seen. Like, man, southern California, we some beaches we

404
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: absolutely disgraced ourselves this weekend. Shit in Orange County like

405
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:21,160
Speaker 1: Newport and Orange County. It was popping. Um Ventura County

406
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 1: not so much because their rules at the beach was

407
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 1: sort of like you can come to the beach, but

408
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: you have to keep it moving. You can take a

409
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 1: stroll along the beach, don't swim, don't stop, don't sit,

410
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 1: just keep it moving. They would keep a moving order.

411
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: L A, they're like, funk out of here, dude, Like

412
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: if we catch it, it's bad. Don't get near here.

413
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,479
Speaker 1: And yeah, there's been like a study from researchers at

414
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 1: the University of Maryland showing that like they've seen for

415
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: the first time they've been tracking sort of anonymous cell

416
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: data that the social distancing effort has like across the

417
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 1: country declined by about three percent, like measurably. Um and

418
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: we'll link to the foothood notes to that stet because

419
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: what they do sort of average out by state how

420
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: many trips someone might be taking, the average distance, and

421
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: sort of how that compares to over time. But I

422
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 1: think it's it's natural, right. I think at a certain point, yeah,

423
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: people are trying to meet their own natural resistance to

424
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 1: this way of life. But I think it it just

425
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,439
Speaker 1: says that we have to strengthen our resolve to come

426
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: stay committed to this because it's truly like the outlooks

427
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,640
Speaker 1: can be really bad if we don't. Yeah, and it's

428
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 1: not that they're over accounting the number of people who

429
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: are being killed by this disease, and in fact, they

430
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: are probably undercounting because there's a new report that, uh,

431
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: like when you just look at the expected number of deaths,

432
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: like just across history in the US, and then this year,

433
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:48,679
Speaker 1: like around the time that the pandemic started, like deaths

434
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: went up by way more than what we're currently attributing

435
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 1: to COVID nineteen. It's it's like we we don't know

436
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: the full extent of of the you know, death and destruction,

437
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: and people are just and try as we might to

438
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 1: figure out the truth. I'm not sure that will happen

439
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: because again and I bring the same point up, just

440
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 1: like in Puerto Rico with the hurricane, there many people died,

441
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 1: not directly from the hurricane itself, but the lack of

442
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: access to medical care and supplies and things like that,

443
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 1: and those are deaths caused by the hurricane. So but

444
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: to keep to keep it keep it tidy, they want

445
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 1: to suppress those figures. And I think that's really important

446
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 1: because even Italy, a lot of doctors were saying, yes,

447
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 1: we had a certain amount of COVID deaths, but then

448
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: we also had these other deaths that were probably I mean,

449
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,479
Speaker 1: doctors are saying, like, we would attribute to COVID because

450
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 1: it was based off of the strain on the hospital

451
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,679
Speaker 1: and these people, they were preventable deaths, but because we

452
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 1: were overwhelmed by COVID patients, couldn't address those people's needs

453
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 1: in time, etcetera, etcetera. All right, let's take a quick

454
00:25:54,040 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 1: break and we're back and we're continuing to sort of

455
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: follow the story of what happened all that p PP money,

456
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 1: that money that was earmarked for small businesses to protect

457
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 1: the paychecks and to keep people employees. Yeah. The p

458
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:27,440
Speaker 1: p P is paycheck protection program or payment plan. But yeah,

459
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:31,639
Speaker 1: the idea is basically to keep people employed by small businesses.

460
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: And there's a there's a really good case study, uh

461
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 1: recently and I guess popular. It's about a guy named

462
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: what is it, Monty Monty, So you know he's just

463
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: a regular man of the people with the name Monty. Yeah.

464
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: I mean, look, everyone named Monty. I just think think

465
00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: old Monty Burns, Uh, Mr Burns, I of Monty. I

466
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,120
Speaker 1: love him. He's been a great supporter of the president.

467
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,199
Speaker 1: You know, he owns three companies that basically work in

468
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 1: the hospitality industry. Fucking did two over two billion in

469
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 1: revenue last year just killing a game or hotels, seven

470
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:21,719
Speaker 1: thousand fucking people employed, and then the pandemic hits, cuts

471
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: cent of his staff and still takes fucking P P

472
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: P money to the tune of nineties six million dollars. Now, Jesus,

473
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 1: we keep hearing about this ship because there's like Ruth's Chris.

474
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,160
Speaker 1: People are like, why the funk are you taking this money?

475
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: Or shake shock, and a lot of companies were shamed

476
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 1: into giving their money back because the thing that they

477
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: don't talk about, which is another reason why we need,

478
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 1: absolutely need to get money out of politics, is lobbyists

479
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 1: help even craft this this kind of recovery legislation. And

480
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 1: in this one they put in a nice little provision

481
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: that says, if you have a location that employs five

482
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,080
Speaker 1: people are less, that's a small business. So even if

483
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: you are a massive company, you can apply for each

484
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: location as a company or as an entity because they

485
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: employed less than five people. And this man, Monty was

486
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: using that exact you know, loophole to collect nineties six

487
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 1: million dollars and cut over of his staff. Now that

488
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: money is meant, like we all said, to keep the

489
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 1: whole reason is to keep people employed so they're not

490
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 1: going on unemployment. Then these small businesses can ask for

491
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 1: subsidies from the government to absorb that hit. And the

492
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,200
Speaker 1: government's like, hey, if you spend sev of this money

493
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: on like payroll expenses, um, we like, then the debt

494
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 1: will be forgiven. But based on everything we're seeing from Monty,

495
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: this dude just took the is just taking the cash

496
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 1: and writing medium posts about ha ha, like I was

497
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 1: poor a long time ago, so funky all this mo

498
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 1: money essentially, Yeah, I mean it's so if you spend

499
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 1: se of the money on paychecks, you don't have to

500
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: pay it back. And he's like, yeah, I'm not going

501
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: to do that. Instead, im in a fire of my

502
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 1: employees and then pay out dividends to holders of preferred

503
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,959
Speaker 1: stock whatever the funk that means. It just means like

504
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: basically finding a way to make rich people richer, uh well,

505
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 1: rather than taking that money from those dividends and putting

506
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 1: it back into your fucking company, or we talked about

507
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: like buy backs that were a big thing that we

508
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: talked about for a lot of the companies that got

509
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: tax cuts during the Trump tax cut. You know that

510
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 1: money should if you were, if you were worth a funk,

511
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 1: you'd put that money back into your business. You can

512
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: keep people employed, rather than being like, well the revenue

513
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: is down. If I cut this off, then I can

514
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: get from the president, I can just pay that back

515
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 1: over two years. That's essentially what's doing now. The thing

516
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 1: that's really fucking disgusting about all of this is this

517
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 1: man goes to medium like every great thought leader does

518
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: to defend their bullshit. Um, and it really really sincere essay. Uh,

519
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: there's some really great excerpts that won't kept pulled out. Um.

520
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 1: What he's like one of the opening paragraphs talks about

521
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: like why this isn't like you know, why this bailout

522
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: is fine? And this is what he says, quote some

523
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: politicians are too concerned whether proposed government programs help small

524
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: businesses rather than quote big businesses or individuals instead of

525
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 1: quote corporations. They seem terrified they'll be accused of bailing

526
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: out in industry or certain companies. Is it preferable for

527
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: a large business like Marriott to lay off hundreds of

528
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 1: thousands of workers so we can say we helped only

529
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: small businesses. Interesting, um, okay, interesting point. Then he goes

530
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 1: on to say, well, now let's mix in some xenophobia.

531
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: This crisis was caused by either the purposeful or negligent

532
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: actions of a semi hostile foreign nation. This is not

533
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 1: a normal market condition. Goes on to say, why is

534
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: Washington protecting the Chinese? Why am I allowed to legally

535
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: pursue an American citizen or company but the Chinese government

536
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 1: is off limits? Why does Washington care more about a

537
00:30:56,600 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: communist regime than it does about its own citizens? Trump

538
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 1: tactic that he's using their um and then find like

539
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 1: really great one to sum it up. Media concerns over

540
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: our receipt of PPP funds are misplaced. The PPP program

541
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: was specifically designed to help companies like ours as part

542
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 1: of the national objective of shoring up businesses and getting

543
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 1: people back to work. But you are not doing that right.

544
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,479
Speaker 1: You're taking the money and firing everyone, taking money and

545
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: using it as a low interest loan to you know,

546
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: just using it the way really wealthy people use money

547
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 1: to make more money in for themselves makes me so mad.

548
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: It makes me so mad because my dad, he's a

549
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: small business owner. He had to shut down all his stores.

550
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: Obviously it's like a clothing store. He has one store

551
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: open because of sales medical scrubs, and that's been a

552
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: really important thing for like, obviously people are washing their

553
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 1: clothes more often because they're if they're working in the

554
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: medical field. But he's been struggling a lot. He hasn't

555
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 1: gotten any financial help yet. And uh, a lot of

556
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 1: his employee he's like, he's trying to pay them as

557
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 1: much as he can because they a lot of them

558
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 1: relied on that yeah paycheck. But the fact that people

559
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: like this fucking just an awful person is like getting

560
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: so much assistance when he doesn't when and using it

561
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 1: the wrong way. It makes me so enraged because I'm

562
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 1: seeing firsthand how businesses are suffering. This is what class

563
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 1: warfare looks like. This is saying this is money that

564
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: should go to you to help you, help your father,

565
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: help other small business owners. Because the thing is the

566
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 1: government and these wealthy people are exploiting our willingness to

567
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 1: be humane to our fellow human to excuse their greed,

568
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 1: and they know, okay, well, if these people take care

569
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:45,479
Speaker 1: of each other because they don't have ship and they

570
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 1: they're already treating each other humanely, I'm going to take

571
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 1: this cash and funk off and laugh my ass off

572
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 1: to the bank. While in my medium posts say actually,

573
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: I'm only getting seven hundred thousand dollars in my salary

574
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: this year because I took up big pay cut each ship.

575
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 1: These are the fucking people that are stealing from us,

576
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: and they laugh all the way to the fucking bank,

577
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 1: And I think, you know, it's I really hope that

578
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 1: out of this people begin to see what these sort

579
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: of manifestations are in our day to day lives when

580
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: we're trying to help smaller the little guy quote unquote,

581
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: and we have the but the system is set up

582
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: for assholes like Monty to swoop in and pick up

583
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: their ninety six million dollar check and fire everybody. Yeah, empathy,

584
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 1: but they get But the thing is they get away

585
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: with it, like that's what's in enraging. They get away

586
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 1: with it. That's what they do it over and over

587
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: again because we are government allows them to do it.

588
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: And so that kind of just makes me feel so

589
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 1: hopeless and like, what is the is there a solution? Like,

590
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 1: can we actually like the fact that we have to

591
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 1: there is a little guy compared to a big guy.

592
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 1: The big guys always gonna want to stay the big guy,

593
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like, that's so rare that

594
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: a fucking billionaire person is like actually distributing their wealth

595
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 1: in a way that is helpful for the betterment of

596
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: the world and not just the better ray of themselves.

597
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know, Yeah, I mean, I like

598
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 1: America and American capitalism are a system or a machine

599
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: that's under stress and we are seeing, you know what

600
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: what the we're seeing the problems really highlighted. And you know,

601
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: this is a great example of, you know, just a

602
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 1: perfect illustration of how empathy is a liability in American capitalism. Uh,

603
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 1: sociopathy and narcissism are an asset. Yeah, and then just

604
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 1: having an advantage, whatever advantage he used to get to

605
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: the front of the line, presumably something with his money,

606
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:48,720
Speaker 1: UH also gave him an advantage. So you know, the idea,

607
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 1: I think the idea that anything like the the underlying

608
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 1: idea of capitalism that we like like to use to

609
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: justify it that it's a meritocracy, just is being uh

610
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 1: put put to shame, like no nobody can see what

611
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 1: is happening here and believe that well you see to

612
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 1: hear how tone deaf. There is another thing, actually I

613
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 1: want to point out from his medium post that he

614
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,720
Speaker 1: said to defend himself against these attacks against capitalism Jack,

615
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 1: that he says, quote, I'm proud of our accomplishments, of

616
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: the hotels I've bought and built, and of the thousands

617
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: of folks I've hired who have become like family to

618
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 1: me that I've just fired. I won't apologize for being

619
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: a capitalist in America or for being reasonably successful at it.

620
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 1: But even a capitalist system with companies only and no

621
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 1: government backstop does not work. So him saying, you know,

622
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 1: this only works by me exploiting their labor and then

623
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: also asking the asking for subsidies from the federal government

624
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 1: that should actually be going to the people that are vulnerable. Okay,

625
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 1: so anyway, this is what would starve to feed my family.

626
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: And it really is frustrating when these corporate leaders are

627
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 1: use the language of like, hey, we're a family. Uh,

628
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: We're we're all a family here and it's just what

629
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 1: there's completely either they don't have enough empathy to even

630
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: have real human relationships with their family, or they're just

631
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: you know, well just appropriating language. I think what you do, though, two,

632
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,760
Speaker 1: is to insulate yourself from doing this kind of fucked

633
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 1: up ship, is that you just have to use that

634
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,959
Speaker 1: saying of like, it's just businessman, and sometimes you gotta

635
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: make tough business decisions because if you can use that language,

636
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 1: you can compartmentalize what that effect is on an actual

637
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: human being. Because when you say tough business decisions is

638
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: different than putting up employee of mine on the street

639
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 1: to figure out how they're going to survive, so I

640
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 1: can fucking buy whatever, you know what I mean, Like,

641
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 1: then you gotta go that down that rabbit hole, and

642
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 1: it's that's too dark for somebody to do. So I'd

643
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 1: rather just a I'm treating this as numbers man. We

644
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 1: just got to tighten the belt, we got to make

645
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: a tough business decision. And that's where it ends, that's

646
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,400
Speaker 1: where all the thought that. But yeah, it justifies, it

647
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: justifies having a severe lack of empathy. And I think

648
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: it's so I'm going to think about this for a

649
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: while the fact that like empathy is empathy is not

650
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 1: cohesive to capitalism, right or like the idea of capitalism,

651
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 1: like it just doesn't work. Yeah, you're not gonna make

652
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,720
Speaker 1: justney by everything, but like, yeah, you're right, tough business.

653
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,840
Speaker 1: You know, you don't make money by giving the money

654
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 1: away to fucking what the funk are you talking about.

655
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 1: You're supposed to suck up as much fucking money as

656
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:40,240
Speaker 1: possible till your cheeks puff out, and then you fucking

657
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 1: swallow it down and get more n till your body

658
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 1: gets so bloated with fucking greed and money that you

659
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: know the world rots around you. You described Kirby, you

660
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:53,879
Speaker 1: subscribed Kirby. Yeah, but this is no dreamland, all right?

661
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 1: And finally, the President is using the d p A,

662
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: the Defense Protection Act Is that right? Defense? What is it?

663
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 1: Production Act? Defense Production Act to force processing facilities? I said,

664
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:22,280
Speaker 1: I said Protection, Defense Production. It's like sure, so funny, Sure,

665
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 1: who gives a ship at this fun Uh? So Trump

666
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:33,920
Speaker 1: is using the Defense Production Act to force meat processing

667
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 1: facilities to open and start providing the critical infrastructure of

668
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: give him his meats. Uh, he's a meat daddy. He

669
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:49,280
Speaker 1: licks his meats and uh so over two dozen facilities

670
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 1: had been shut down due to COVID outbreaks. Uh, And

671
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:59,919
Speaker 1: he was like, nah, funk all that. So he's four

672
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 1: send them back to work, and he's saying, the Feds

673
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 1: will throw down on some ppe uh. And also he'll

674
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: use his talent and intability to provide some tips on

675
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 1: ways that they can not get sick or at the

676
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,839
Speaker 1: very least ways the companies can avoid getting suited. Can

677
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: you can only imagine the tips on protection that the

678
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 1: White House is going to offer concerning the state of

679
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 1: some of these briefings, like, which means probably none that's

680
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: functioning well, probably but anyway, Yeah, the other thing is

681
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 1: the liability protection that he's offering these companies because inevitably,

682
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,879
Speaker 1: you know, these companies want to put these people back

683
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 1: to work, and if things, if we don't know who

684
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:49,800
Speaker 1: has the illness and who doesn't, inevitably someone will contract

685
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:54,720
Speaker 1: the illness and potentially pass away. So then if there's

686
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 1: if they have coverage from the government over liability, then

687
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 1: they can't go after the employer for forcing them to

688
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 1: risk their fucking lives. And like the unions are fucking

689
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 1: screaming their heads off about this, and like like you

690
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 1: gotta you're not even doing the minimum of like giving

691
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: there are people wearing hairnets as face masks at one point,

692
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,279
Speaker 1: and they're like, that's not fucking even remotely close to

693
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 1: pp That's just a weird face mask. Um, And you know,

694
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: it's just we're seeing now that the whole irony of

695
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: it is that the president cares literally more about dead

696
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 1: meat than alive fucking human people, that that's the priority.

697
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:37,760
Speaker 1: And on top of this, uh, this you know act,

698
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: we're seeing that a lot of the states that or

699
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 1: a few of the states that are reopening pretty aggressively,

700
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 1: are like trying to make it so that you have

701
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 1: no choice but to go to work if your employer says, hey,

702
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:51,840
Speaker 1: we're open again, because essentially, if you don't go to

703
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: work for a health concern when your employers saying hey,

704
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 1: we're open, then they'll consider that a quit and you

705
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: will lose your unemployment. Ben This story hit close to home, um, obviously,

706
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,239
Speaker 1: because a lot of these meat factories have reached out

707
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: about using my one of my legs to feed Idaho

708
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 1: and I think Minnesota it was to use it, you know, obviously,

709
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,240
Speaker 1: because the amount that they could get off these babies

710
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,360
Speaker 1: I politely declined. But to your point, um, the fact

711
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: that the liability coverage is one of the first things

712
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 1: that's being mentioned in this Uh, why even pivot to

713
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: a serious point? Maybe I'm about to make another Blake

714
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:36,800
Speaker 1: Blake calls his Jim the meat factory. Yeah. Yeah, at

715
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,279
Speaker 1: least that's what the sign behind you. So it does.

716
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 1: It does in my god, the electric bill that I

717
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: am getting for the sign in the tens of thousands.

718
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. It's blinding. It looks like a leather biker

719
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 1: hat and a handlebar mustache. That's fluorescent light. That's right

720
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:59,720
Speaker 1: in the mid of teeth. It's toes. Oh whoa, yeah,

721
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: every else, I like where I'm at. I'm sorry. Were

722
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 1: you gonna make a serious point or a joke about

723
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,600
Speaker 1: the life? No? No, I actually I was going to

724
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 1: make a serious point, But you also made a very

725
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:14,879
Speaker 1: good point. Why make one? But I was gonna say

726
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 1: that if if the liability is just one of the

727
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 1: first things that you mentioned, maybe, uh, there's so many

728
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 1: horrible things that could happen that you would be liable for.

729
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: Perhaps it's not a great idea to open back up?

730
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 1: Is what's the point that it's going to be No,

731
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 1: it's true, but I think it's it's it's fucking cruel,

732
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 1: you know. And this is again, this is what this

733
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 1: kind of class warfare looks like. These companies saying like, yeah,

734
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 1: I got meat rotting. I need these people to go

735
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 1: back to work so I can sell this ship. But

736
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: they're all scared of the fun. So dude, do me

737
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 1: a solid here, cover my ask while I forced these

738
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:54,279
Speaker 1: people possibly to illness or worse death, and I can

739
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 1: get my money going and they have no choice because look,

740
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 1: if they don't come in, then they won't get on insurance,

741
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 1: but they won't get unemployed the benefits. It's fucking really

742
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 1: really fun. The governor of Iowa, Kim Reynolds said, if

743
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 1: you're an employer, this is this is her like whole

744
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,880
Speaker 1: quote on Iowa's policy. If you're an employer and you

745
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 1: offer to bring your employee back to work and they

746
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,120
Speaker 1: decide not to, that's a voluntary quit. Therefore they would

747
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:19,320
Speaker 1: not be eligible for the unemployment money. And in Texas

748
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 1: is a voluntary quit? Was that a phrase before that sentence? Yes?

749
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 1: Probably in terms of applying for unemployment, got it voluntary?

750
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 1: Maybe not those exact words, but if you voluntarily left

751
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 1: your job of a job, you can't. Yeah, yeah, voluntary

752
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: employment at will employment. I've just never heard someone say

753
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 1: that's a voluntary quit d catch phrase of a blue

754
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 1: collar a blue collar comedian. Yeah. And Greg Abbott in Texas,

755
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 1: you know, lifted restrictions I think starting at the end

756
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 1: of this week, and a lot of people are still

757
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:00,799
Speaker 1: don't feel safe going back to their jobs. And but

758
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 1: the same thing, you could lose your benefits. But the

759
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 1: state is saying like they're kind of looking at if

760
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 1: they can make exceptions and things like that. But again,

761
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,440
Speaker 1: this is like we could only go three fucking weeks

762
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:11,880
Speaker 1: when we were like we need to think of people

763
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:15,839
Speaker 1: and keeping them safe and keeping them healthy to immediately

764
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 1: the fucking billionaires are bitching, and so now it's like,

765
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,920
Speaker 1: we gotta get these people off the fucking unemployment benefits

766
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:26,319
Speaker 1: and into the fucking meat facilities and into the hair

767
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 1: salons or whatever. Fuck the safety. It's really the changeup

768
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 1: is so fucking drastic. And this is what happens when

769
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 1: you have a federal government that's not on the same

770
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 1: page with the states, and when the states are not

771
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,000
Speaker 1: on the same page with each other. And sometimes the

772
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 1: local city governments aren't on the same page as the

773
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:47,360
Speaker 1: states either where there's an interesting thing going on my

774
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,840
Speaker 1: parents or my family lives in Charleston and the you

775
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 1: know McMaster, the governor of South Carolina has opened up

776
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 1: you know, like the beaches, etcetera, etcetera. But on a

777
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:02,680
Speaker 1: local level, some of the local towns have not opened

778
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,719
Speaker 1: up their beaches. So uh, you know, there is like

779
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:09,799
Speaker 1: possibly the governor could take action against these people, you know,

780
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:13,840
Speaker 1: like um, but it is interesting to see if you

781
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 1: have more liberal pockets at a local level in more

782
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,919
Speaker 1: conservative states, they are you know, trying to take some

783
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 1: sort of control, whether legally or morally, over what they're doing. Yeah,

784
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,239
Speaker 1: it's amazing. It's just so pronounced, like you can tell

785
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:33,439
Speaker 1: how much a human life is valued based on like

786
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:38,359
Speaker 1: what leaders are willing to do to protect people. It's

787
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:42,040
Speaker 1: like it's just it's directly, you know, they're saying the

788
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:43,960
Speaker 1: people who have too much pressure on them are caving,

789
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: and they're like fine, whereas other you know, you you

790
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 1: want to hear someone act like they're your parents or

791
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 1: knows better than you or knows more information saying You'm

792
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 1: gonna be real with you this ship is still out there, Like,

793
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,760
Speaker 1: I'm my why risk? No, it's not worth the risk.

794
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,440
Speaker 1: It's just not worth the risk. No one's life is

795
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:03,879
Speaker 1: worth the risk. Every other people like we got it's

796
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,800
Speaker 1: worth the risk. It's worth the risk of losing your life.

797
00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 1: My jeans don't fit anymore because my legs have gotten

798
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:14,239
Speaker 1: so goddamn big they burst through the denim, which was

799
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: supposedly a strong fabric. So now I need to go

800
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,160
Speaker 1: shopping for new pants. I can't just order them online.

801
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:21,880
Speaker 1: They show up, they don't fit, I'll be fucking naked

802
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 1: from the weights down. Yeah, I mean I've never seen Yeah,

803
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 1: you made those jinkos look like they were painted on? Yes, Yes,

804
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:36,799
Speaker 1: and I will again for the for the photo of

805
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,399
Speaker 1: this episode. Should I just draw a face on my

806
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 1: thighs and like Blake Wessler dot Com, I don't want

807
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:47,719
Speaker 1: to give that away. I'm not going to do that, Okay. Yeah,

808
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:53,919
Speaker 1: And Manuchin, last story before we get into the less

809
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 1: serious news. Nuchin, whose name I have totally forgotten, Steve

810
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 1: Steven Steven seemed like a Steve Steve Steve anw Chinucci

811
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: UH is saying that they will audit any SBA loans

812
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 1: that are over two million dollars. He announced today Jack

813
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:18,480
Speaker 1: that actually it's just all SBA loans, so not just

814
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,319
Speaker 1: the two million dollars anymore, like he amended that all

815
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:26,560
Speaker 1: of them, oh even even more oversight. Great. Well, yeah,

816
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 1: I mean we were talking about how the weirdest people

817
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:34,400
Speaker 1: ended up with millions of dollars, including my Los Angeles Lakers,

818
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 1: which is I think the only fucking team in the

819
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 1: NBA to get this p PP money. Well, Miles, in

820
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:44,439
Speaker 1: their defense, they do need all of all of those

821
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 1: millions of dollars to buy a wed whacker strong enough

822
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:51,839
Speaker 1: to knock off whatever is above Anthony Davis's eyes. So

823
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,879
Speaker 1: I think that's why they needed They needed the money

824
00:47:54,920 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 1: they needed. Um, Miles. Miles does not do well with

825
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 1: criticism of its poul. He'll resign it's powerful. Um. But yeah,

826
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:14,600
Speaker 1: I think it's just like so they were like, the

827
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:18,840
Speaker 1: logic behind the Lakers getting is so stupid they should

828
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:22,799
Speaker 1: be embarrassed. Well when they applied for it, um, but

829
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 1: then they said they only like after they learned that

830
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 1: the funds were low, they were like, Okay, maybe we

831
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:29,800
Speaker 1: should give them money back. Why did you fucking apply

832
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,279
Speaker 1: for in the first place? You don't. You don't need it.

833
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 1: You don't need it. I think people just like it's like, well,

834
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 1: we could lose money, so we should take it, rather

835
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:42,759
Speaker 1: than like is it ethical, is it moral given the revenues,

836
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,759
Speaker 1: or that we're valued at like over four billion dollars

837
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:48,239
Speaker 1: or some ship as a as a club. But I

838
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:53,040
Speaker 1: mean the rules of capitalism that like we are learning,

839
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:56,320
Speaker 1: Like the more out in the open the ship becomes,

840
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,280
Speaker 1: the more we learned that. It's like you cheat until

841
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:03,000
Speaker 1: you get caught, and then you act like if people

842
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:06,799
Speaker 1: are looking at you, you act in a superficial way

843
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:11,240
Speaker 1: like you're good, good guy. But then yeah, you cheat

844
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:13,840
Speaker 1: as much as you can. You take the money because

845
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 1: everybody else is taking it because everybody is a thief.

846
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: We have the President of the United States is you know,

847
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,799
Speaker 1: one at capitalism by being a grifter. So like, what

848
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 1: are we gonna do. We're we're gonna suddenly start like

849
00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:32,920
Speaker 1: holding ourselves to high moral standards. Like everybody for the

850
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:37,879
Speaker 1: past three decades has won the game of capitalism by

851
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:42,759
Speaker 1: you know, being predatory and cheating. So that's just how

852
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,239
Speaker 1: it's gonna work. I'm not saying it's good. I don't

853
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 1: I don't forgive the Lakers. Uh not yet. I haven't

854
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:55,320
Speaker 1: apologized to me directly. Um, just a little text message

855
00:49:55,360 --> 00:50:01,439
Speaker 1: and they were, yeah, exactly, funk that. Alright, guys, let's

856
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:14,759
Speaker 1: take a quick break and we're back. And one kind

857
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:18,719
Speaker 1: of topic of conversation that I've seen many different kind

858
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:22,920
Speaker 1: of opposing takes on is is horny nous during the

859
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 1: core corny nous? Um? So what one piece of evidence

860
00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 1: we had been kind of looking at in the past

861
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 1: was a report that Chinese drug stores were completely out

862
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 1: of condoms and that that was like their version of

863
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:44,920
Speaker 1: toilet paper. But people are now saying that that might

864
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:47,399
Speaker 1: have had more to do with the supply chain than

865
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 1: it does with how much sex everybody was having. Well

866
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:55,040
Speaker 1: that and like people just I think maybe projecting what

867
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,479
Speaker 1: they thought there. You know, they thought it was gonna

868
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,719
Speaker 1: be COVID coite as fast, you know, and it was like,

869
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:04,840
Speaker 1: I better get nine thousand condoms because trust me, I

870
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:08,000
Speaker 1: haven't examined the existential damage that's being done by this,

871
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:09,920
Speaker 1: but one thing I know, I'm in a house with

872
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 1: someone else that I have consensual sex with. Oh that's

873
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:16,480
Speaker 1: what's happening. Cut to worldwide global depressive states from people

874
00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 1: who are not horny um and are just sort of

875
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:23,240
Speaker 1: like because at first, so you know, we've I thought,

876
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,880
Speaker 1: and most of us thought logically were like yeah, probably yeah,

877
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,160
Speaker 1: people probably having more sex thre indoors. But yeah, condom

878
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:32,560
Speaker 1: sales just weigh down actually, like in Europe and in

879
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,439
Speaker 1: the United States, And that actually makes more sense when

880
00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:37,719
Speaker 1: we now that we are living in this reality like

881
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:41,440
Speaker 1: no one's moving around freely, uh to like socialize or

882
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:45,840
Speaker 1: date like they used to. UM, And actually it seems

883
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:49,799
Speaker 1: like all this confusion and chaos around us and uncertainty

884
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:55,920
Speaker 1: makes us less horny. I don't I don't know. I

885
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,200
Speaker 1: think it's maybe ramped up other parts of our like

886
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:02,239
Speaker 1: libidos and like cizar ways. Maybe other than like pure

887
00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:06,000
Speaker 1: physical needs where you're like, you know, admiring the cactus,

888
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:08,960
Speaker 1: the cacti in your yard, but you know you're like

889
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:13,040
Speaker 1: rubbing them, Miss Butterworth Bottle, Yeah, just kind of thick

890
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:15,759
Speaker 1: like I have under my pillows so no one sees

891
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:24,160
Speaker 1: my midnight lover. Oh yeah, I mean quarantine horny nous.

892
00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,359
Speaker 1: It's funny. I was I was peeking into Tinder because

893
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 1: I was just curious, like, what's tinder Like during the quarantine.

894
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:32,439
Speaker 1: So many Tinder profiles us all were like, if you're

895
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:35,640
Speaker 1: not willing to break quarantine, don't bother swiping. Like I

896
00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:37,640

Speaker 1: Cuba or something like top level, high level diplomatic negotiations

901
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 1: in terms of like their own contact tracing what time

902

Speaker 1: weird you know, sub sub exclusivity getting it in there. Yeah,

910
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 1: I've never felt more for people who have like secret families,

911
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,359
Speaker 1: people who are like creeping on the side. It's got

912
00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:27,080

00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,799
Speaker 1: they will have to say that he's dead. I don't know.

918
00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,040
Speaker 1: What else are you gonna do? I don't know what

919
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:54,279
Speaker 1: you do or else you say that's I don't know.

920
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,600
Speaker 1: Is it easier to say, look, your dad's a scumbag

921
00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:59,440
Speaker 1: and like he's got this other family were like you know,

922
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:02,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, or you have a secret mother. Look

923
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,920
Speaker 1: it's all secret family. Uh Twitter, let us know what's how?

924
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:09,720
Speaker 1: How are you? How are you handling this? Very curious?

925
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:11,960
Speaker 1: All three I don't want to like tell tales out

926
00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:14,800
Speaker 1: of school. All three of us are quarantining with a

927
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:18,840
Speaker 1: like a partner. No I am YouTube both are? I

928
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:21,680
Speaker 1: mean I I think it's different when you're in a

929
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 1: like long term, like committed thing. You know. It's like

930
00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 1: I think a lot of my friends who I see

931
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: on Instagram like making sadough starter kids, I know they

932
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:32,279
Speaker 1: wouldn't be doing that if they had somebody in their

933
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:33,719
Speaker 1: house they can have sex with. I guess that's what

934
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:35,920
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That was like, that was funny because that

935
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:39,239
Speaker 1: was like a reductor's tweet last week or something. Yes, yes, right,

936
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,600
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, are you bone appetite for cat recipe

937
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,279
Speaker 1: levels of horny or do you live someone you have

938
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 1: consensual sex with? Right? I think yeah, I really think

939
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:51,960
Speaker 1: that's true. But yeah. The other thing though, back to

940
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,440
Speaker 1: the supply chain though, Jack, is the thing that you know,

941
00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:59,000
Speaker 1: the global condom shortage is probably going to be a

942
00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:02,400
Speaker 1: reality because Malaysia they're strict lockdown rules and they are

943
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:05,920
Speaker 1: one of the top rubber producers and major sources of

944
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:10,000
Speaker 1: condoms um. So it's like I think one of this

945
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:13,960
Speaker 1: one company, Carricks they make one in five condoms. Uh.

946
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:15,719
Speaker 1: They're saying like they've had a close three of their

947
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:20,040
Speaker 1: factories and they're probably doing two million fewer condoms than

948
00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:24,160
Speaker 1: normal during this period. So they're saying, hey, look, if

949
00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:26,160
Speaker 1: you don't need to maybe save them, because that's i mean,

950
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:28,560
Speaker 1: contraception is very important to other parts of the world

951
00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 1: where like they don't have the same access to medical care.

952
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:36,040
Speaker 1: So that's actually a sort of darker dimension to all

953
00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:38,440
Speaker 1: of that to say, like they're kind of being like, Okay,

954
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:40,919
Speaker 1: maybe we also need to be really mindful of this

955
00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,480
Speaker 1: because of now not just the it's not the lack

956
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:47,920
Speaker 1: of hornings. It's because we can't work work the rubber factories, right,

957
00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:51,400
Speaker 1: and you do call them rubbers. You're always calling them rubbers,

958
00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:58,520
Speaker 1: call them rubbers. I think that's what I think I've

959
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,320
Speaker 1: ever called it. I don't think i've called it. What

960
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:03,439
Speaker 1: if I ever called it? I think condom. I don't

961
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:10,799
Speaker 1: think I've ever used a fun Jimmy. Yeah, Jimmy's calls

962
00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 1: him Jimmy's was like a thing for a month in

963
00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:19,400
Speaker 1: the early nineties, but I feel like the Jimmy capp

964
00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 1: was definitely nineties. Rap gave his Jimmy capps, but sex

965
00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:27,680
Speaker 1: tried to make that a thing. Yeah, I was like,

966
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:29,719
Speaker 1: hey girl, I need to go to the store to

967
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,000
Speaker 1: get one of those Lisa left Ie Lopez eye patches

968
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 1: real quick. Yeah, honestly, like kudos to Lisa left Lopez

969
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:38,680
Speaker 1: for like rocking the condom over her eye and like

970
00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:41,360
Speaker 1: teaching us all about like you know, safe sex, like

971
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 1: talking about it. Honestly. My uncle used to be the

972
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:47,360
Speaker 1: director of Soul Train or like the A d On

973
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 1: Soul Train, and I would go as a kid, like

974
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:51,839
Speaker 1: whenever there were artists that I was wanted to see,

975
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 1: and I saw TLC. In that era, and I remember

976
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:57,239
Speaker 1: that was another uncomfortable conversation my dad had to have

977
00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 1: with me because she had this was a condom eyepatch

978
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 1: phase of Lisa left I Lopez, and he just said

979
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:05,319
Speaker 1: it was like he just was very dismissive of what

980
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:09,359
Speaker 1: it was about. But later on at after the one

981
00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 1: AIDS Walk, he told me what a condom was. Just

982
00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:15,239
Speaker 1: personally just let you in on my mental history of

983
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:20,080
Speaker 1: don't condom knowledge. I'm glad you. I'm glad you figured

984
00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:23,560
Speaker 1: it out eventually. Yeah. I took a handful because they

985
00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 1: were free at the AIDS Walk, and my dad like

986
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:27,960
Speaker 1: saw what I had, you know, because like those things

987
00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:29,920
Speaker 1: just like swag bags. He's like, what's your kid? And

988
00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:31,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm all these condoms. He's like, what the

989
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:33,520
Speaker 1: funk are you doing with these? I'm like, I don't know.

990
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:38,040
Speaker 1: They're free and you're six, you grab whatever is free. Uh,

991
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 1: but you know you still got him to this day, right,

992
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:47,440
Speaker 1: still got him to this day. Alright, speaking of things

993
00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 1: to do instead of have sex, Uh, it's time to

994
00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:56,400
Speaker 1: choose our rewatch movie for the weekend. Yeah. I put

995
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 1: together a list of movies that are available on net

996
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,000
Speaker 1: flo x I just kind of went through the top

997
00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 1: Metacritic ones, uh because they because they allow you to

998
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:09,760
Speaker 1: swort by what's on Netflix, what's on Prime Snow Piercer

999
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:13,360
Speaker 1: is on Netflix. That's a I feel like that might

1000
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:15,520
Speaker 1: be a decent pick. It's a little got a little

1001
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:20,800
Speaker 1: post apocalyptic is um in there, And there's also is

1002
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:26,479
Speaker 1: just so hot right now, so hot right now? Yeah,

1003
00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 1: So that's kind of at the top of my list.

1004
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:32,440
Speaker 1: We also have Marvel's uh, The Avengers just near the

1005
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:38,400
Speaker 1: top because again apocalyptic and uh, everybody's seen it. I

1006
00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:40,720
Speaker 1: will say this on another thing on your list, they

1007
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:45,160
Speaker 1: have bolded and under written underlined it. Uh. Is Her

1008
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:48,360
Speaker 1: which I've only seen the first twenty minutes of. Oh

1009
00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:50,880
Speaker 1: I love that movie. It's funny. But why did you

1010
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,000
Speaker 1: only see the first twenty minutes? What happened? Because I

1011
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:55,600
Speaker 1: grew up in a house like screeners all the time,

1012
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:58,360
Speaker 1: so a lot of movies were like watched on DVD,

1013
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:01,760
Speaker 1: so I never had like I sometimes won't respect the

1014
00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 1: sanctity of the running time of the film, and I'll

1015
00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:06,840
Speaker 1: start watching and be like, what, oh, come outside, you

1016
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:08,800
Speaker 1: want to smoke a blunt? And then I pose it

1017
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:10,560
Speaker 1: and then I forget what I'm doing. And then I

1018
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:14,840
Speaker 1: haven't watched her. Um so yeah, but I want to

1019
00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:18,640
Speaker 1: because people always have thoughts about it. But I don't

1020
00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:21,960
Speaker 1: know if it's because it's good or whatever. But hey,

1021
00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,360
Speaker 1: I think it's good. It's got the disembodied voice of

1022
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:27,880
Speaker 1: Scarlett Johansson. So if that's your thing, you might give

1023
00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:30,640
Speaker 1: it a shot. Oh yes, and you know how I

1024
00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:39,919
Speaker 1: love an actress of color bottle. And then I think

1025
00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:41,880
Speaker 1: I think we picked our movie. If it's got to

1026
00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:45,640
Speaker 1: be I'd hate to put two Asian people against each other.

1027
00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:47,960
Speaker 1: I know, you know she's gonna be playing Angela Davis

1028
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:54,919
Speaker 1: in an upcoming movie. Ship, All right, let's do her. Well,

1029
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:58,160
Speaker 1: we'll rewatch her. Let's do her. Yeah, I mean, at

1030
00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 1: least I know I'll bring fresh I it's something I've

1031
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:05,439
Speaker 1: not seen, so I may have fresher eyes. Yeah, fresh eyes.

1032
01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:11,280
Speaker 1: Realize fresh eyes. Okay. And then just in terms of

1033
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: I figured there are probably quite a few documentaries coming

1034
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 1: our way about COVID nineteen. And yeah they it turns

1035
01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:25,640
Speaker 1: out there twenty in the works right now and right

1036
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 1: now like in major like not just like oh we

1037
01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,360
Speaker 1: we we just spoke to twenty people who are working

1038
01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:35,439
Speaker 1: around with a COVID documentary like no like quimby fucking Hulu.

1039
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:40,600
Speaker 1: People are like putting documentaries together. But I don't know. Look,

1040
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:44,959
Speaker 1: I understand you should this, this moment should be documented.

1041
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 1: I'm not talking. I don't say that's not a worthy premise,

1042
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:50,960
Speaker 1: But some of these platforms seem to be wanting to

1043
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:55,440
Speaker 1: take them to market, like relatively quickly, to capitalize on this.

1044
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:59,440
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I can't imagine fucking anybody like

1045
01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:03,920
Speaker 1: wanting to harm themselves more by getting more like entrenched

1046
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:08,720
Speaker 1: in this story. I don't know. Yeah, I'm trying to

1047
01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:11,680
Speaker 1: imagine what they would look like, and I'm picturing like

1048
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:15,720
Speaker 1: the COVID nineteen commercials with all the like stock footage,

1049
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:20,400
Speaker 1: because like you can't really go out and do physical productions.

1050
01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:22,959
Speaker 1: I think, well they are. I think maybe these people

1051
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 1: are embedding themselves with them so they're like I'm not

1052
01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:27,720
Speaker 1: going anywhere. But you know, they're all different, Like some

1053
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:30,200
Speaker 1: are talking about like I get it, like some projects

1054
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:34,280
Speaker 1: focus on the food industry or like other nonprofit organizations,

1055
01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:37,520
Speaker 1: and I think those are Honestly, those stories are going

1056
01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:42,880
Speaker 1: to be harrowing and should be entered into the public

1057
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,800
Speaker 1: record and consciousness for people to understand just what the

1058
01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:48,600
Speaker 1: actual true toll is of this kind of thing. But

1059
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,280
Speaker 1: it's just weird because part of these articles are talking

1060
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:54,360
Speaker 1: about how like Quimby is really trying to get theirs out.

1061
01:01:54,440 --> 01:01:59,960
Speaker 1: It's like Quimby, come on now, nobody asked you already yeah,

1062
01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:03,200
Speaker 1: already hurting from stealing people's ideas on other shows. Yeah.

1063
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:07,160
Speaker 1: By the way, ABC News does a pretty good roundup

1064
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:10,320
Speaker 1: of everything happening in COVID nineteen and they are the

1065
01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:16,120
Speaker 1: number one TV show every day basically on all cable

1066
01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:19,560
