WEBVTT - A List of Bad Things The Queen Did (Before Dying) 0:00:05.160 --> 0:00:10.280 Who's dying today. It's the Queen. It's the Queen. Well, correction, 0:00:10.360 --> 0:00:14.440 she's not dying, she's she's dead, that lady dead. Yeah, 0:00:16.120 --> 0:00:21.680 very sad, obviously, very sad. Grieving podcast today, brought to 0:00:21.760 --> 0:00:24.000 you by It could happen here. It's all of us. 0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:27.319 It's it's me, it's Get, it's Chris, it's Robert, and 0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:29.680 it's the ghost of the Queen. We're talking about the Queen. 0:00:29.920 --> 0:00:34.879 She's dead. What's up with that? Yeah, she's real dead. Um, 0:00:35.360 --> 0:00:37.080 I haven't seen. You know. What I haven't seen that 0:00:37.120 --> 0:00:40.280 I'm disappointed of is a new version of the Monty 0:00:40.320 --> 0:00:44.159 Python Dead Parrot sketch involving her corpse and it's and 0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:49.120 it's fancy casket. Um, but that's still time, still time 0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:51.839 we can change that. Now. My question is, James, is 0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:55.760 that legal in the UK? Now? Absolutely not No, you 0:00:55.800 --> 0:00:59.760 will get so arrested, not even arrested. This is the 0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:02.840 first part people have just like I don't understand what 0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:04.479 the fund is wrong with people, but they have become 0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:08.120 volunteer cops to like defend a guy who's been credibly 0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:12.160 accused of pedophilia. And I am disappointed in us. Do 0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:16.920 not be policing your fellow people for exercising some of 0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:19.880 the very few rights at the conservative well because everybody 0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:22.800 has taken away from them. Actually, but yeah, you've only 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:28.800 let yourself down. I'm disappointed. Yeah, they they they really 0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:33.200 really hating anyone who is not thrilled about the monarchy. 0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:37.280 The arresting people of having not my king signs. I 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:41.320 see that Jetwood is taking it to the fascist state, 0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:44.440 which is great to see. But we're gonna be talking 0:01:44.480 --> 0:01:49.400 about the queen or former former queen. Um, I do 0:01:49.480 --> 0:01:51.840 want to do want a note that you know, the 0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:55.360 day the Queen died, a big wave of condolences came in, 0:01:55.360 --> 0:02:00.600 including from Domino's Pizza UK, which which if you understand, 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:03.440 the Queen had a very deep relationship with Dominoes. So 0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:06.720 this this does mean a lot. Um they were they were, 0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:10.600 they were lovers. Among those who posted their condolences was 0:02:11.160 --> 0:02:17.959 Hamilton's West End. The the Britain r MT, which is 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:22.240 like the British Railway unions, stopped their strike, which I 0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:24.960 think is the most pissed at coward thing I've ever seen. 0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:28.680 The union do. British Cycling suggested that people not go 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:30.480 out for a bike ride during the time at the 0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:37.079 Queen's are you fucking serious? My god, they're literally she 0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:42.280 was six deal with including food. I think the funniest 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:48.480 one was labs Rob posted, everyone is deeply saddened by 0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:50.440 the passing of her badesty in the Queen and we 0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:52.800 offer our sincere condolences to the royal family. We joined 0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:55.120 together with the people of the United Kingdom and all 0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:57.720 around the world and mourning her loss, which they then 0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:00.600 which they then deleted an hour later. If there's one 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.480 thing that Mrs Rob is about, it's about people all 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:07.640 over the world mourning the loss of monarchy. It's the 0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:12.640 main thing about it. So yeah, most of on Twitter 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:16.000 was definitely it was definitely split between these companies posting 0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:19.800 how they're so sad that also a lot of people, uh, 0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:22.200 pretty pretty thrilled that the Queen died, because it's kind 0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:25.400 of funny because we were all shocked by the ninety 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:30.240 five year old woman who died. She was so young. 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:34.840 It's amazing she was. She was at an age that 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:38.160 if you reversed her age and told me she had died, 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:40.920 I still wouldn't have been surprised. Like she was at 0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:43.360 an age where like even if you flip the numbers. 0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:47.880 She's still old. Yeah, it's great to see the Telegraph 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:50.720 today running a headline five mile q too few and 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:54.119 it's the second coffin. We'll see horrible stories of suffering. 0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.200 This is a country where she said, will not be 0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:02.840 able to heat their homes this winter. It's a country 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:06.880 good an explosion in food, insecurity, and this is what 0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:10.760 we're doing. It's like like the British like, okay, so 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.960 the Crown did not call directly for a blood sacrifice. 0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:18.240 The British people are just bound and determined to have 0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:21.960 people die like that. They're lay They're like they're lining 0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:25.800 up in the streets to sacrifice themselves for the dead. 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:28.880 I mean, magical things don't do us all that way. 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:31.360 There's some people sharing up with not my King signs 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:37.400 and getting assaulted by mobs. And for most people, like 0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:42.440 regular as people. Yeah, yeah, most people are not that concerned. 0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:44.880 Most people are not like it's just like the Turfs 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:47.960 in Britain. There are like a small minority of people 0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:51.160 who do nothing but tweet right for the Guardian, who 0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:53.880 misrepresent the opinion to most British people who are not 0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:55.920 that concerned. But like a lot of these British people 0:04:55.960 --> 0:04:58.880 do show up in person and like shut down, like yes, 0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:01.680 it's certainly, it's not It is not the case that 0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:04.839 like there isn't widespread support for this kind of ship. 0:05:04.920 --> 0:05:08.120 It's just that it's it's not uniform. That's people who 0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:10.680 do speak The people who do speak up also tend 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.240 to get arrested, which because it's just like it's it's 0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:17.080 sort of amazing. It's like, okay, Britain got industrial capitalism 0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:20.560 before like any other country on Earth, right, the bourgeoisie 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:24.320 has one job. One job there. One job is to 0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:27.200 destroy feudalism. And they couldn't even the British couldn't do it. 0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:30.040 They had they had the largest head start of any 0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:33.720 country on Earth, and they couldn't do it. It's incredible, 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:37.840 it's miraculous. They were co opted into these few elites 0:05:37.839 --> 0:05:39.960 through things that the Great Reform Acts, which which use 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:43.360 property as a proxy for land or capitalist ap proxy 0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:45.560 for land, and it's worked remarkably well. And now we 0:05:45.640 --> 0:05:50.080 just do false consciousness ship like this, like how good 0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:53.200 is your false consciousness game? When people who can't heat 0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:57.440 their homes are sleeping on the street to say goodbye 0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:01.400 to presumably a billionaire who have a cat about them? Yeah, 0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:07.440 it's like, yeah, who absolutely, who was not equipped emotionally 0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:11.120 to have ever cared about them, Who's soul would never 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:13.240 have allowed her to care about them? Yeah, I mean, 0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:15.479 let's let's like, you know, as as lots of people 0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:19.080 were romanticizing the monarchy and the Queen and doing their 0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:22.120 like performative mornings, obviously there was a wave of other 0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:24.920 people being like, hey, you know, the royal family is 0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:27.920 kind of kind of sucked up. You know, they've stolen 0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:32.160 billions of dollars and jewels from countries like India and 0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:37.280 across the South Africa. Um, they're continuing to benefit from 0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:42.640 Britain's history of colonialism. The earlier earlier this year, during 0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:46.800 the during the during the Queen's jubilee celebration, an old 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:51.719 Kenyan revolutionary fighter used the used the the occasion to 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.599 call for an explanation from the Queen for why she 0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:59.599 hasn't been compensated after being tortured with axes by British troops. 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:02.400 People should look at the way Britain treated the Mau Mau. 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:05.880 We're gonna have stuff on this. I have stuff on 0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:07.760 this later for this episode. Actually we're gonna be talking 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:12.600 about that. Seventeen estimate found that the royal family is 0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:17.440 estimated to be worth eight eight billion dollars um. Yeah, 0:07:17.440 --> 0:07:20.520 and a lot of that's obviously not in straight up cash, 0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:22.440 which is one of the ways like people are talking about, Oh, 0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:26.400 Charles inherited half a billion, No, Charles billions of dollars. 0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:29.840 Like they own a lot of land. Yes, they owned 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:33.120 a huge amount of land. Um. Charles has his own 0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:36.960 real estate empire that he like created while he was 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:41.280 waiting for his mom to fucking croak um. And they 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:45.920 also have like a fortune and really actually uncountable, like 0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:47.760 you have to think about their wealth like the Vatican, 0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:51.680 Like there's no actual way, Like it's functionally limitless money 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:56.040 because so much of what they own is like priceless antiquities, 0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:59.080 many of which were stolen from other people. Yeah, any 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:01.680 time to put angible number, and they're sort of their 0:08:01.760 --> 0:08:03.240 value And that's sort of what if you want to 0:08:03.240 --> 0:08:06.880 go to celebrity status, Yes, what is that fucking diamond 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:09.560 in the goddamn crown worth? Right? Like there's no real 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:11.720 way to appraise that. Yeah. Well, and and I want 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:13.280 to point this out, like if they tried to sell 0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:15.560 the diamond almost certainly. What would happen is like the 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:17.680 British people would give her three billion dollars and they 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:21.200 give her the diamond back they funded, Yeah, they'd stopped 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:23.720 doing the subsidies for heating that they've just started doing, 0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:25.560 and buy the diamond back. Here, let's talk about that. 0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:29.080 Let's le let's talk about the heating thing briefly, because 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:33.880 I think uh. An anchor on BBC was discussing how 0:08:34.559 --> 0:08:38.040 news of the Queen's passing basically interrupted all other news 0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:42.599 in the UK, UM including statements being given on the 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:46.839 price increase in energy bills and the rising cost of living, 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:50.400 by stating that that those topics, that the topics of 0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:54.840 cost of living and the rising energy bills was quote insignificant. 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:58.560 Now due to the gravity of this situation, we can 0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:00.480 we can insert this clip here. I have I have 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:04.880 it saved for Daniel because it's just it's wild. Doctors 0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:08.160 in Scotland were concerned about the Queen's health coming um 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:11.600 as liszt Trust was making a rather important statement concerning 0:09:12.080 --> 0:09:17.600 um the future of energy bills UM that of course insignificant. 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:20.199 Now given the gravity of the situation we seem to 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:24.000 be experiencing with her. Just an old lady died. She 0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:26.560 was not a very nice old lady. I've known old 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:29.040 ladies who were nice that died and I was sad. 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:31.360 I've known old ladies who are night and not nice 0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:34.240 that died, and I didn't really care in any case, 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:37.840 Like it's it's not it's not a big deal because 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:40.839 old people like, that's what human beings do when they 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:43.679 reach ninety six, is they die a lot of the time. 0:09:43.760 --> 0:09:46.880 And it's it's okay, Like it's okay. Queen would see 0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:49.960 that of everything about her, it's fine. Queen Elizabeth was 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:54.360 the longest reigning monarch in the history of Britain. Yeah, 0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:57.319 probably close to the longest. And like maybe Ramsey is 0:09:57.400 --> 0:10:00.520 the fucking second is up there, like years, you don't 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:04.000 run into a lot of competition in terms of links. 0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:13.079 Seventy years thrown at nineteen fifty two. Yeah, And it's 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:14.760 worth a lot of old ladies are going to die 0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:19.280 in Britain this winter because of the okay, And it's 0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:21.200 also worth knowing that the Queen tried to use a 0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:23.520 bunch of state poverty money that was emerged for schools, 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.280 hospitals and low income families to pay bucking camp houses 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:32.760 heating bill. Oh wow, uh yeah, that's that's wild. That's great. Well, 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:34.800 you wouldn't want an old woman like that to be 0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:41.000 out of out in the rain. Because I believe the 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:43.440 Crown is States, and I'll have to check this real quickly. 0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:45.560 I believe the Crown of States did evict people during 0:10:45.600 --> 0:10:48.040 the COVID nineteen pandemic, talking of old folks being kicked 0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:53.600 out into the rain and for for around two weeks 0:10:53.640 --> 0:10:56.079 after the Queen's death, basically all of Britain kind of 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:59.840 grinds to a halt um. It's which which would honestly, 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:01.960 one of the base parts about this is that this 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:05.920 does potentially cost the UK economy billions of dollars because 0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:10.600 they just shut down for two weeks um. So this 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:12.920 is like the equivalent of the boat getting stuck in 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:16.360 the canal. Y. I do want to I do want 0:11:16.360 --> 0:11:19.560 to make a quick note for everybody. The longest reigning 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:24.600 verifiable monarch, according to this Wikipedia page that I just skimmed, 0:11:24.920 --> 0:11:27.680 is so Boosa, the second of Swaziland, which was a 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:31.840 British protectorate until nineteen sixty eight. He reigned from eighteen 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:37.640 ninety nine to August of nineteen eighty two, two years. 0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:41.920 So you know what, Elizabeth, not that impressive. I am 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:47.240 a sabooza. The second stand now absolute chat ship. The 0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:49.320 fact that he just snuffed it before he got to 0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:56.120 see a pot tight end very yeah, that is yeah, wow, yeah, 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:59.320 it's just yeah, it's looking at some of the evictions 0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:01.160 of krown of states done over the years, you can 0:12:01.240 --> 0:12:06.160 learn it's pretty heartbreaking ship. Well, luckily the Queen actually 0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:08.679 did not die in Buckingham Palace. She died in a 0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:13.440 castle in Scotland. That's great because Buckingham Palace is a 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:17.520 hideous monument of trash. Like the castle she died, it 0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:23.040 looks pretty cool that a lot of the Yeah, one 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:25.600 thing you're supposed to get with a monarchy is like 0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:28.960 really rad looking castles. It is like neat the castles 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:33.079 are cool, except for Buckingham Palace, which looks like fucking tenements. 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:37.040 Yeah so, but Buckingham Palace is a building that dares 0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:39.200 you to go steal back all of the wealth if 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:43.000 they stole from you to build it. So the plan 0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:46.080 for if the Queen died in this Scottish castle was 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:52.280 called Operation Unicorn, which is wild. What is the Unicorn? 0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:55.120 A ninety six year old woman dying is not a 0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:59.920 unicorn situation, operations squirrel or something more. How is the 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.280 giving a couple of their third I don't get it, 0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:07.480 I I know. Um. So the plan for this type 0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:11.000 of thing is, so the queen died on last Thursday afternoon. 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:14.280 It was announced the Friday following Friday morning. After the 0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:17.920 queen dies, Uh, they call Operation Unicorn. They then call 0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:22.839 they send like my emergency alerts to all the British leaders. Um. No, 0:13:23.080 --> 0:13:27.480 the new Prime Minister who is incredibly funny um, and 0:13:27.559 --> 0:13:32.600 you know, all of all these people are notified and 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:36.480 then press press gets notified that next morning as as 0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:40.800 as they did. So staff members in the castles and 0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:49.480 palaces all got sent home. Um. All parliamentary business gets postponed. Uh, 0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:53.319 every everything, everything shuts down, which means all of the 0:13:53.360 --> 0:13:56.000 stuff they were working on on energy bills gets shut down, 0:13:56.040 --> 0:13:58.400 like they were working on trying to figure out what 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:00.640 the funk they're gonna do for this percent cost increase. 0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:04.400 All that gets shut down until late September. Um. So 0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:08.480 that's that's cool. Um. But no, this is actually kind 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:11.280 of a unique thing because because of how long Elizabeth 0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:15.040 rained the last death of a monarch was in the fifties, 0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:18.200 so it's it's been a while since this has happened, 0:14:18.200 --> 0:14:20.920 so everyone's kind of rusty. Like no, like if we 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:24.960 aren't as prepared for this. If if it's okay, My 0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:27.280 my hope is that we get a couple of we 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:30.040 get people get a lot of experience with dead British 0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:34.480 monarchs in the next decond. King Charles the Third, I 0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:37.240 don't think we'll be around for too long. Yeah, I've 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:40.640 seen that man's hands and it's maybe. Here's the thing. 0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:43.080 Every every time a monarch dies, it's kind of it's 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:45.240 like a top down, rolling general strike. So if we 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:47.000 get enough of them in a row, we can start 0:14:47.040 --> 0:14:51.400 doing serious damage capital. By the way, quick quick note 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:55.760 about the Chad Sabooza, the second of Swazi Land died, 0:14:55.920 --> 0:15:05.200 died with a thousand grandchildren. Oh my god, Jesus, wow, 0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:11.280 man and always pictured shirtless. Elizabeth cannot compete. No, I'm 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:13.360 fine without not being the case. Actually, I don't want 0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:17.640 to see any contetion. Yeah, and he probably wasn't racist 0:15:17.760 --> 0:15:20.800 to any of their partners, which actually can say about 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:23.640 the real families. Here's a neat thing he and he 0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:27.640 took all control of all non or of all Swazi 0:15:27.720 --> 0:15:31.040 land and mineral rights from non Swazi interests that had 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:34.440 gained control during colonialism and indigenized all of that, which 0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:36.920 is dope. So there you go, So boost of the 0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:41.400 motherfucking second. Yeah called a god king. I have to 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:44.200 go and get injected with a small dose of a disease. Well, 0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:48.160 let everything but injected in that. Chris, Hey, Daniel's back, 0:15:48.440 --> 0:15:51.120 So let's take an ad break, um, and we'll be 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:53.800 back to learn more about the queen. You know what 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:55.520 else will give you a small dose to a disease? 0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:58.600 That's right, that's right, Yes, these products and services, Yeah, 0:15:58.600 --> 0:16:12.840 I'll just say the Queen of England. But yeah, and 0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:17.120 we're back. So yeah, it's been a while since since 0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:20.160 the monarch died. Last time this happened in the fifties, 0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:25.560 mourners wore black arm bands to show respect for King George. 0:16:27.800 --> 0:16:30.840 That's the one who was like a big fan of Nazis, right, 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:33.520 But I don't I don't think we're gonna see so 0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:35.600 I don't think that tradition is going to continue. I 0:16:35.640 --> 0:16:38.400 doubt we're gonna see a wave of black arm bands. 0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:42.120 If anyone was gonna do it. It would probably be 0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:47.640 the Anglos. Yeah, I I suppose so, yeah, it's uh 0:16:47.640 --> 0:16:50.320 oh yeah it was Edward Edward the eight who abdicated 0:16:50.680 --> 0:16:53.640 um and and then was replaced by the guy who 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:56.560 you were talking about. Okay, that's the guy like nazis 0:16:56.680 --> 0:17:01.080 Edward the Eighth. So I'll all all all the UK 0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:03.440 flags are gonna be flown at at half masted until 0:17:03.480 --> 0:17:05.840 the day of the funeral, and then the day of 0:17:05.840 --> 0:17:07.960 the funeral is going to be a bank holiday as well. 0:17:08.040 --> 0:17:11.600 So that's pretty exciting. That's great. I hope that the 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:16.879 poor get to eat sweetmeats or something. No, no, no, again, 0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:21.359 they're just they're just closing down almost all almost all businesses, 0:17:21.600 --> 0:17:24.280 almost all businesses in the okay will close. The stock 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:29.000 Exchange is going to close um like on on. Following 0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:33.520 present Princess Diana's death in the late nineties, uh, Britain, 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:37.080 business owners in Britain quote felt that they were quote 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:40.240 forced to close their shops or canceled sporting sporting events 0:17:40.240 --> 0:17:43.320 the day of the funeral lest they feel the rage 0:17:43.560 --> 0:17:49.000 of the tear stained hordes outside unquote. Yeah, that's an 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:51.520 incredible that is an incredibly funny way to talk about 0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:54.080 monarchist though, like thank you, thank you, thank you the 0:17:54.119 --> 0:17:58.639 Guardian for that amazing quote. It's unbelievable, I mean, and 0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:02.000 at least with Diana, it was actually sad, like she 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:05.360 was a nice person who was badly treated in her 0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:08.200 life by the royal family and died tragically and young, 0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:11.360 as opposed to somebody who got everything they want from 0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:15.160 the day they were born and died at ninety. So 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:20.560 then currently they are assembling the quote Ascension Council to 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:24.480 formally declare Prince Charles the King, which he's he's already 0:18:24.520 --> 0:18:26.560 known as King Charles, but you know there's the whole 0:18:26.560 --> 0:18:30.280 separate formal process because he could pick another name. Still 0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:33.320 he says he's not. He says he's oh, he's he's confirmed. 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:37.120 That good because kings, Kings Charles have a good history 0:18:37.240 --> 0:18:42.560 in the UK. They don't often get executed. So the 0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:46.439 Council will make the proclamation of ascension to be to 0:18:46.480 --> 0:18:49.080 be read on Proclamation day will be will be soon 0:18:49.119 --> 0:18:53.240 after the death um and that'll be somewhere somewhere in 0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:58.240 a London. How do they still have all the ship 0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:01.320 like there's so many weird ruals that they still do 0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:05.919 of both houses of Parliament are suspended are suspended until 0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:10.679 after the official state funeral um, and both and and 0:19:10.760 --> 0:19:15.119 all politicians have to wear new allegiance to the to 0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:19.199 the newly ascended monarch. This is really like genuinely the 0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:24.520 world's most pathetic ruling class. Like, oh my god, Jesus Christ, 0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:29.399 it's pretty funny. You have one job. Well, but also 0:19:29.560 --> 0:19:35.280 like back in the day before we had monarchs and capitalism, 0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:38.000 whenever you know, you had a new coronation, whenever there 0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:40.400 was something big that happened with the monarchy, the thing 0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:42.800 they would do is make sure everybody had a shipload 0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:45.480 of food and nice stuff. The king would give it away. 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:47.880 It's all over the world. Cultures would do this, even 0:19:48.200 --> 0:19:50.480 you do. Yeah, it's what you do when you come 0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:53.280 to power, because they were at least that scared of 0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:55.000 the people where it's like, all right, I gotta like 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:57.960 do something to ring in this rain good so they 0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:00.119 don't start to wonder, why do we have a king now? 0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:02.000 So I'm gonna give him a bunch of fucking food 0:20:02.040 --> 0:20:03.440 And then they'll be like, oh, the king, he's the 0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:05.520 guy who gives us food every now and then. That's dope. 0:20:05.840 --> 0:20:08.959 It's amazing now that in the UK it's just like, 0:20:09.040 --> 0:20:11.080 all right, we've got a new monarch and the old 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:12.920 one died, so you guys, a lot of you don't 0:20:12.920 --> 0:20:17.040 get to eat for a while. So King Charlie seventy 0:20:17.080 --> 0:20:20.800 three is the oldest person in British history to become king, 0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:25.600 which is I think a great side very unsabosi a 0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:28.840 second of him. And then we're also getting a new 0:20:28.880 --> 0:20:33.400 queen technically, uh, the Camella, the Duchess of Cornwall, which 0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:37.879 again all this sounds made up um is now is 0:20:37.880 --> 0:20:43.280 now the queen consort um. So that's exciting, that's thrilling. 0:20:43.280 --> 0:20:47.760 I'm I'm thrilled for Queen Camilla. It is the Duchess 0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:55.520 of Cornwall or so and Queen Elizbeth, Queen Elizabeth's coffin 0:20:55.840 --> 0:20:59.280 is is being prepared to lie in state, meaning it 0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:01.439 will be presented for the public to view so they 0:21:01.480 --> 0:21:03.800 can cry on the coffin, which is pretty cool, or 0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:06.159 crying near the coffin. They don't want the poorest to 0:21:06.200 --> 0:21:14.360 get too close. Meanwhile, so Booza the second turned Swazi 0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:18.119 Land into a major asbestos ex border, which Queen Elizabeth 0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:23.080 also never did. So wait, so when when when when 0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:25.280 the queen dies, do they like from like? Do they 0:21:25.320 --> 0:21:28.280 like preserve her from Aldehide or whatever? They've got some 0:21:28.320 --> 0:21:32.160 fancy they have some fancy ass ship because they were 0:21:32.200 --> 0:21:35.280 probably embalming er while she was alive, just as her 0:21:35.320 --> 0:21:39.360 limbs stopped working, squirting some in. The Queen's body will 0:21:39.400 --> 0:21:41.560 lie in state until the day of the funeral, shall 0:21:41.640 --> 0:21:44.040 then become a public holiday. There's at least a ten 0:21:44.080 --> 0:21:47.960 day morning period starting the day after her death, um, 0:21:48.040 --> 0:21:51.960 and then should be transported to win Westminster Abbey by 0:21:52.080 --> 0:21:55.240 gun carriage for the state funeral, and then after the 0:21:55.280 --> 0:21:59.120 funeral she'll be she'll be buried in the King George 0:21:59.160 --> 0:22:05.800 the Sixth Memorial Chapel. I believe her the body of 0:22:05.800 --> 0:22:09.160 her late husband, Prince Philip, who died last year, will 0:22:09.200 --> 0:22:11.840 be moved from the vault that he's currently at to 0:22:12.200 --> 0:22:17.720 beneath the chapel to join here. That's pretty funny. Yeah, um, 0:22:17.800 --> 0:22:19.600 I don't have nothing to say about that other than 0:22:19.640 --> 0:22:21.320 it's funny that they've just got that dude in a 0:22:21.400 --> 0:22:26.240 fucking freezer. It's really funny. The new coordination will cost 0:22:26.960 --> 0:22:30.720 billions of pounds. Oh good. That's a good because England's 0:22:30.760 --> 0:22:32.680 like doing great right now, They've got plenty of money 0:22:32.680 --> 0:22:37.040 for all the necessities. You know, everything's been well great, 0:22:37.160 --> 0:22:40.280 cost of livings really down, So it's it's a good 0:22:40.320 --> 0:22:43.880 idea to spend billions of dollars making a little death 0:22:43.880 --> 0:22:47.359 cult about this elderly woman. That's just like the last 0:22:47.400 --> 0:22:50.640 like big royal wedding costs between one point two billion 0:22:50.840 --> 0:22:54.440 and six billion pounds, which is quite quite the quite 0:22:54.440 --> 0:22:58.320 the spectrum there one two to six billion. That's like, huh, 0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:02.840 I feel at that point all money's fake. Like the 0:23:02.880 --> 0:23:05.160 cost of the coronation is expected to be similar, if 0:23:05.200 --> 0:23:07.639 not a little bit higher. Right, Yeah, you gotta you 0:23:07.720 --> 0:23:10.479 gotta spend a lot of money on a coronation for 0:23:10.560 --> 0:23:15.359 fucking Charles. Uh, So that you can, because that's what 0:23:15.440 --> 0:23:19.359 real countries do. In two, that's very real country ship. 0:23:19.680 --> 0:23:23.679 Speaking of money, new currency is already being printed and 0:23:23.720 --> 0:23:27.080 in fact that that'll be cheap though, and in fact 0:23:27.920 --> 0:23:32.080 portraits of Charles have already been made on currency. There's 0:23:32.119 --> 0:23:36.720 like a reserve of money depicting the next king, just 0:23:36.800 --> 0:23:40.000 like it's being stored to like moving in from from 0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:43.480 when the queen died. It's like lots of this money saved. 0:23:43.760 --> 0:23:45.600 Just like how funny it would have been if, like 0:23:45.680 --> 0:23:48.040 six months before this happened, his seventy two year old 0:23:48.040 --> 0:23:51.760 ass had a heart attack. Have to like burn all 0:23:51.840 --> 0:23:54.520 that money, They got to burn all the Charles Bucks. 0:23:54.560 --> 0:24:00.399 He's not gonna be around long. Rice that Britain longer 0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:05.440 has the world's reserve currency, can you imagine? No, we 0:24:05.440 --> 0:24:10.280 we took on on this network, on our various shows. 0:24:10.320 --> 0:24:12.680 We we spent a lot of time digging into ugly 0:24:12.720 --> 0:24:15.720 aspects of American history and American culture. But let's all 0:24:15.760 --> 0:24:18.840 celebrate one thing that I'm legitimately proud of, which is 0:24:18.880 --> 0:24:21.359 that a long time ago people who were like that 0:24:21.440 --> 0:24:25.360
