Yeah, you know, 36 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: I'm kind of deep in season one right now. I 37 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: feel like this is this particular still is from a 38 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: credit sequence, but I think it's later on in the 39 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: series when she's like teaching a class and for effect 40 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: pulls out a gun. As if she would, and then 41 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: it banks that it just has the bang coming up, 42 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: the little flag that says bang. Oh yeah, joker sty 43 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: I feel like it's fairly visible in my umor and 44 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: maybe if I rotate my oh god, everything's good. Oh yeah, 45 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: oh there it is. I see the bang for everyone listening. 46 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: But it will tease you into looking up. Jessica Fletcher 47 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: with a gun that says bang, and it's worth it. 48 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: It'll make your day. It's a pretty Delight's gonna fletch 49 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: the original joker if you ask me. First of all, yeah, yeah, 50 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 1: she lives in a town that has the highest per 51 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: capita murder rate in the history of towns. I think. Yeah. 52 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: That was one of the first articles I wrote. It 53 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: correct was talking about the most dangerous fictional towns to 54 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 1: live in, and Cove topped the lists. But yeah, I mean, 55 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 1: there's one common factor to all these crimes, and it's 56 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: that she's around, right, So what she's like, oh, somebody 57 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: better investigate. It's like, do you ever think that she's 58 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: marking these people and then trying to clean up her steps. 59 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: I mean, like, I'm gonna look into this. The clues 60 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: that are left beyond are like are like, I left 61 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: my hat at the scene of the crime level. So 62 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: it's like, I mean, either the this is just geographically 63 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: the like happens to be the worst criminals, the worst 64 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: murders to ever do it, or she's bad at framing people. Well, 65 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: so part of the murder she wrote situation is that 66 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: there's almost a confession at the end of the episode, 67 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: so like, you're not supposedly she's the killer because we 68 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: almost hear from the killer's perspective what they did and 69 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: why they did it. And I just finished watching one 70 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: because I just listened to television while I'm working, So 71 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: I just have listened to a recent episode in which 72 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: a bus driver killed Demand twice tide the fact that 73 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: he killed him the first time. So we got two 74 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: confession scenes. And I'm so sorry for spoiling this forty 75 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: year old television show, but that is the outcome. It 76 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: was Ben Gibbons, the breast driver, That's who did it. 77 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, boy, when you come around to a second 78 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: confession scene that Jessica Fletcher has teased out of someone 79 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: by by hook and by crook, it is, man, what 80 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: a formula, you know, what a show? Don't love to 81 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: talk about it. I will keep talking. You have to. 82 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: Most people have to physically restrain me from continuing to 83 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: discuss murder. She wrote some Jessica Fletcher in her own way, 84 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: like the Joker. They both proved the pen is miter. 85 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: You know pen is in many ways. She'll cut you 86 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: at degree angle, no doubt. What is something from your 87 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: search history? All right? In my search history is how 88 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: to shoot a dick?

And someone was like, 167 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: I think that happened to Mark Zuckerberg because like once 168 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: he became a internationally famous like CEO like that, that 169 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: was around the time that this sort of thing would 170 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,239 Speaker 1: have been considered cool. It was like, you know, sins 171 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 1: in Second Life and like that, and VR was still 172 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: like kind of the wave of the future type thing. Yeah, 173 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,839 Speaker 1: it just seems very like retrograde. He's got that oh 174 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: six technology swag. Yeah exactly. It's like, dude, what it's like, Like, Yeah, 175 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: I feel like this it's such a throwback to like yeah, 176 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: the sims like I feel like we've been here before. 177 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: And also I just feel like any kind of technology 178 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: that means that people are going to have to wear 179 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: something bulky on their face, like an oculus to to 180 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 1: exuperience it. Really, I just don't see becoming like very commonplace. 181 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure people are, like I know people who are 182 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: having great experiences with their v our headsets, and I 183 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: love that for them, But I just don't see it 184 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: being like a commonplace, everyday household thing, like people just 185 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: don't want to wear a bulky thing on their head 186 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: or just or like what it offers, right, And I've 187 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: I've consistently said, until it's something that is really blurring 188 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: the lines of our like reality and like what our 189 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: perceptive reality. I don't know, Like that's that's the kind 190 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 1: of push where you you'd be like, oh, ship man, 191 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: like you put this thing on and you really might 192 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: think you're on top of a mountain. Like maybe that happens, 193 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: and then we go down a slippery slope with people 194 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: just like in their houses not doing anything because they're 195 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: just have a headset on. But for me, I think 196 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 1: I just see limited use. Like again, I'd love to 197 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: watch an immersive music video with a headset. That might 198 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: be cool, or you know, play a certain game or anything. 199 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: But I don't know, like long hours long wearing is 200 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: just I don't know. For me, I just want to 201 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: I just want to go to the matrix if if 202 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: I'm being honest, yeah, I feel like that it's good 203 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: for like the people have created like some cool video 204 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: games to play with them, like and I've heard of 205 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 1: people doing like hangouts with friends that they like can't 206 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: otherwise see, you know, like being in the same room 207 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: with people that are like across the country like during 208 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 1: the pandemic might be a cool thing to do. But 209 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: like everything about the Facebook, like Facebook, you don't need 210 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: the Facebook's metaverse to do any of that ship like 211 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: people already have it, and like, in fact, connecting it 212 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: to a massive corporation that is trying to like op 213 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: like sort of manipulate your behavior and like monetize you 214 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: is like the exact opposite of what would be cool about. 215 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: Completely agree. So I watched NBA basketball and like sometimes 216 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: I'll be watching a like, you know, Philadelphia broadcast, I 217 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 1: think it was, I forget who it was. I think 218 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: it was a Philadelphia broadcast, and there was like a 219 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: ad for like broadband internet, and they had like the 220 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 1: family doing VR. They were like, now we can do 221 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: VR together, and then like the dad like puts on 222 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 1: the VR headset and then like the whole family everybody 223 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: has VR headsets on, and they're all just like wandering 224 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: around with their hands in front of them like they're blindfolded. 225 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 1: So it's just like it's entered the it centered the zeitgeist, 226 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: but like the majority of people don't really know what 227 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: it is or like how people use it. So yeah, yeah, 228 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: I think most of the videos people see our people 229 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: falling over or like like plowing through drywall because they're 230 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: so like disoriented having a VR set, So I get 231 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: why they're like and VR and the depiction of that 232 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 1: is like disoriented people in a room. It's never like 233 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: VR and it's like kids being like, thanks, Dad, I 234 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,959 Speaker 1: just got a new Uh, I got my third degree 235 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: of particle physics.

And 253 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: it's something as I've I've gotten older, I've realized every 254 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: literally everybody is doing Nobody knows what they're doing at 255 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: any given moment, particularly when you come into a new 256 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: chapter of your life. You know, would I think I've 257 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: I've heard people on here talk about this thing before. 258 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: But like when you're little and you look to your parents, 259 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: are adults in your life, You think that they are, 260 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, possessors of knowledge or answers, and and sometimes 261 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: they are. But as as one now, as as a 262 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: stepdad to three boys who have you know, helped raise 263 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: for a dozen years. Now, Man, we do not know 264 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: what we're doing and it we are just figuring it 265 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: out as we go along. And there's nothing wrong with that, 266 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, There's nothing wrong with that. 267 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: It's it's literally how anybody does anything as far as 268 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: I'm I'm concerned. Now, there's some things that you shouldn't fake, 269 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: you know, like open heart surgery or flying a plane 270 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: and ship like that very important roles in in in 271 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: our our lives from day to day. Don't fake driving 272 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: a car until you make it either, that's a probably 273 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: a bad one, my mom, M. I grind out here 274 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: just performing heart surgeries in the back alley in eighteen 275 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: wheelers use a car with air brakes. Nope, let's make 276 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: let's get this paper this morning, fellas yeah, rise and grind. No, 277 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: it's true. And also I think just in general, right, 278 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: more than like fake, it's not really about being deceptive, 279 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: because I think that's that there can be that sort 280 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: of tinge of that phrase faking until you make it 281 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: of more, just like just be confident in what you're 282 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: doing and continue to do it, because I think to 283 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: that point it's easy to look at certain jobs or 284 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: like things you might aspire to do. Like I remember 285 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: when I was lobbying and I really wanted to do comedy. 286 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know, man, Like I just 287 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: I what was it going to take to do it? 288 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: And I just had to really back myself really just 289 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: to be like I want to do this ship. I 290 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: think I'm funny, like fuck it, like, let's just do 291 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: this ship. And I'm will walk around like I know 292 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 1: what the funk I'm doing, because to a certain extent, 293 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: we do. But it's it's about sort of also crossing 294 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: into that next, like I guess, emotional phase where you're 295 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: able to look at yourself and say, no, I believe 296 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 1: in what I'm doing and and yeah, that's potentially I'm 297 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: just emulating other people who seem successful. But it's just confidence, 298 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: so exactly exactly, Yeah, just just uh, you know, don't 299 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: be a dickhead about it obviously when when you have 300 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: that confidence, but but be humble, but but be you know, 301 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 1: confident that you're going to figure it out eventually you do. Yeah. 302 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: I feel like there's a lot of people who are 303 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: monsters in the entertainment industry or you know, six very 304 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: successful people who are you know, really awful to people 305 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: underneath them. And I think that's like built on their 306 00:17:55,480 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: insecurity that like, oh no, like everybody's gonna find out 307 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: that I'm like I'm a fraud, and it's like no, 308 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,479 Speaker 1: not nobody. It all just looks better, like you're comparing 309 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 1: your insides to other people's outside. Basically, no need to 310 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 1: do that because at the end of the day, it's 311 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 1: just just just back yourself. That's and that's really the 312 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 1: hardest ship to do because a lot of the times 313 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: you're like, I don't have all this anecdotal data to 314 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 1: suggest that I can do what I'm doing, and you won't. 315 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 1: You won't have that data until you do it. So 316 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: that's like kind of the rub. There's like you gotta 317 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: actually start going to take that push to the next place. 318 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: I remember even starting this podcast. I wasn't podcasting before this, 319 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: and I was just like, funk, man, I don't know 320 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 1: what then am I dude? And I in my mind, 321 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, what, Jack knows what he's doing. So based 322 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 1: off of that, and I had to step up acting 323 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 1: like I've been podcasting for a minute, and I, you know, 324 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: straight up I was like, I'm using the confidence of 325 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 1: just Jack being like, hey, I think this could be 326 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: a good podcast for me to push aside any doubt. 327 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: I had to be like, fuck it, I guess, I 328 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: guess we can do this ship. And the fact that 329 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,160 Speaker 1: I threw up right before we started recording it every 330 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: day for the first two years, Like yeah, I was like, no, 331 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: this is just a stomach issue, and I would have 332 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: my sympathetic reflects to Jack had to have his teeth 333 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: for a place. Literally, like the on everything, it's it's 334 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 1: very that's pretty good. Yeah, the same thing with with me, 335 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: like when we started George Center and Hour after Hours 336 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 1: that I had never done a podcast either, And eventually 337 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: you just you know, you pretend like you know what 338 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: you're doing and then people actually start giving you feedback 339 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: and tell you they're listening and it becomes a blaster. 340 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: Or doing weddings, you know. A friend of mine asked 341 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 1: me to do There's in like two thousand and six, 342 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: and sure as hell had never done a wedding before, 343 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: and uh, they asked me because of my beard. Literally 344 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: they were like you you look official. I swear to 345 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: God that that's that's why they were like, they were like, 346 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 1: we like you here in North Carolina. Yeah, exactly, you 347 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: got the beer. I think like I looked official but 348 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: also kind of like a wizard at the time. So 349 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 1: they just asked me to perform their wedding and then 350 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 1: other friends that were there saw me do that. One 351 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: and then asked me to do theirs and so on 352 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: and so forth, and now I got a little, you know, 353 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: side hustle going. So speaking of Beard, because you do 354 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 1: have leg a zz Top Beard and I do. You know, 355 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: one of my favorite things about your a k is 356 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: is your taste in music. You have just like a 357 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: great elect Yeah, very eclectic, but it's always the hits 358 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: that I've heard of, so I don't have to do 359 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 1: too much research why zz Top underrated. Zz Top is 360 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 1: underrated just because I feel like most people that aren't 361 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: intimately familiar with their catalog don't realize all the songs 362 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: that they're familiar with that are zz Top. They think 363 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: it's like all these different classic rock bands. I've had 364 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,360 Speaker 1: many conversations with friends of mine who aren't into them 365 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 1: as much as I am, and uh, I start naming 366 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: songs and they're like, wait, zz Top does that one, 367 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: Wait they did this one, and and you just keep 368 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: They have so so many hits, and they lasted over 369 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: the decades. They evolve their sound. Uh. You know, they 370 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 1: started playing in the late sixties, early seventies. Then when 371 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 1: the eighties came, you know, with Eliminator and and they 372 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,919 Speaker 1: updated their sound with a scynth and stuff. And you know, 373 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: some of the most classic early MTV videos just absurd, 374 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: absurd videos that are fun to go back and watch. 375 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: Um and Billy Gibbons is just uh like one of 376 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: the greatest guitar players of all time, but I feel 377 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: like he's not ever listed in that same tier that 378 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 1: a lot of classic rock guitarists star and uh yeah, 379 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: and and that's that's basically why. And also like they 380 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: my dad always had a super long beard growing up, 381 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: so I associated them with my dad, like I think, 382 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: you know, in that little kid brain logic like well 383 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: zz top are my dad's friends, Like they all look 384 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 1: you know, you know what I'm saying, like a damn 385 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: bit of sense. But uh that's that's that's that's what 386 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: I told myself at like four years old. Yeah, that 387 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 1: was like having a look going into the eighties like 388 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: was you know, I guess lucky, Like I don't know, 389 00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: did did they always have the long beard's like before 390 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 1: very early on, very early on, they they were clean shaven, 391 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: but basically early seventies they grew out the beards. And 392 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: of course, you know, Frank Beard the drummer is the 393 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: only one that doesn't have one, and he has a 394 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 1: has a classic mustache. But that that's the key to 395 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: kind of their timelessness is that they've always looked like 396 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: they were pushing seventy years old because of the dark sunglasses, 397 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: the super long beards, kind of their their dress and 398 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: and aesthetic and so they you know, into the eighties, 399 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: their look didn't change. The only thing that changed was 400 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: like the guitars got like neon colored, and they wore 401 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: fur coats and ship and you know kind of kind 402 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 1: of had like a scent scent wave vibe to him. 403 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: And then and then all throughout all the decades, they've 404 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: literally it's been hard to tell how they've aged. And 405 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: of course recently, uh Dusty Hill passed away the bass player, 406 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: so uh r I p to him, so that they 407 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 1: they lost lost Dusty uh say, probably like six or 408 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: seven months ago, and uh so, yeah, that's a that's 409 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: a that's that's why I think that they are underrated. 410 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: Everybody should go listen to just listen to the greatest hits, 411 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, and uh realizing and they've 412 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: got some silly as songs too. There They've they've always 413 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: looked the way that they do, but they're singing about 414 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: like they're singing about some perverted ship, you know, like 415 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: like the song tube steak boogie or pearl necklace. What's 416 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: that about? I don't get it? Is it for off 417 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 1: my conversation? Yeah, so good good having the iconic look 418 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: heading into the eighties with MTV bad for the s 419 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: e O and like listing of bands in your iPod 420 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: era with the the very last possible name in any 421 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: alphabetized archive. That's a good point. I've never never thought 422 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 1: about that, actually, never thought about do you have do 423 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 1: you have a singular musician that you are like, that's 424 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,919 Speaker 1: my dad's friend, because I have like Billy Joel, I 425 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: so associate with my dad for some reason. I'm just like, yeah, 426 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:06,239 Speaker 1: he's they're probably friends, they're probably hanging out. So I 427 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: thought my grandfather knew Miles Davis, right, because I got 428 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: this plaque when I was born from one of my 429 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: grandfather's really good friends that was like this plaque from 430 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: the album Miles Ahead, and it was like this sort 431 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 1: of presentational Miles Davis album and it said like two, 432 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: you know, Miles Young, Miles blah blah blah. And then 433 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: I was as a kid. I was like, man, my 434 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: grandpa got this from Miles Davis, his friend, and yeah, 435 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: so that that was one in the back of my mind. 436 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: I never quite articulate out loud, but whenever I looked, 437 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: I was like, damn, he knows, Miles. I mean, yeah, 438 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: you do come from like really cool people who did 439 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 1: hang out with great artists, so like probably about the 440 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: same for you. I had to create a fictional universe 441 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 1: where my dad hung out with Billy Joel. He was 442 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: he listened to piano man. And you're like, I wonder 443 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 1: which one my dad is? Is he the real estate novelist? Right? 444 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: I mean my my iggy pop almost killed my dad. 445 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've told that story. Yeah, that's 446 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: they lived together for a second. What Miles, how have 447 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: you never told that before?

Mind you, this is 472 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,920 Speaker 1: the first this is the first lyric that he says 473 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 1: when the song opens up, where your mask take your 474 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: pills And now I'm a whole genovation mentally what oh no, 475 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: So that's clearly a pandemic.

Like everyone else's like blue lives man, 493 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So let's get there. Yeah, 494 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: I just like it's interesting to think about him sitting 495 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: down to his uh like red white and blue mole 496 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: skin and like writing these yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure 497 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: he's an artist. Yeah right, so it sounds like a 498 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: wealthy person to likes. Be real, he's masquerading as like 499 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: some like poor guy. He has money, so yeah, he 500 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: probably would have a mos and just writing these phrases 501 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: that are I don't think they're the sorts of things 502 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: that have been written down before, because they're just like 503 00:28:55,600 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 1: things that people shout when they get drunk and are 504 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: angry about nothing. Okay, well I want to I want 505 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: you to hear the chorus a little bit. And then 506 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: he has some fuck used to throw out TOOMC media. 507 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: He's all right, there's another part where I just they 508 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: he even got let's go Brandon in the song, so 509 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: it's just it's really got it all. And then I 510 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: just do want to. I guess this is the interesting part. 511 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: Even though he's pushing back against like the liberals and uh, 512 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: the rest of America in the mainstream media, he does 513 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: have a message which isn't just all just fuck you, 514 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: motherfucker and suck my balls or I'm not taking your pill. 515 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: He does I do just want to point out how 516 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: down to earth it is of him to be mad 517 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: at TMZ. Yes, we've all been miss quoted by TMZ. 518 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: Or you know, we're leaving dinner at a fancy restaurant 519 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: and TMZ just suddenly they're they're asking you questions, and 520 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: it's just like Americans are tired of this ship. We 521 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: the people are tired of TMZ, you know, asking us 522 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: friendly questions every time I get expensive gas, that Joe 523 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: Biden has made eight dollar music, Allen, you know, I'm 524 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: in my pajamas right every time. I trying to live 525 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: my life. And then I also just want to like 526 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: the craft of leaving us hanging when he said, suck 527 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: on these because you don't know what he's talking about. 528 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: And then but then he like slowly reveals nuts these 529 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: nuts exactly. But again, even though, yeah, you said, even 530 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: though you want to hold these, I do want to 531 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: heal the country, which is an interesting turn because right 532 00:30:51,840 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: after that he sings this to the promise. Then okay, 533 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: little cultish, but yeah, it's very cult tish. I mean this. 534 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: The big kind of discouraging revelation from this song is 535 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: that he, like Trump, is not going to let a 536 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: single like failed political campaign dissuade him from running from 537 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: continuing to pursue politics. It would seem that's why I'm 538 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: running for governor of Michigan. Out I forgot about that. Wait, 539 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: is he really no, No, he's not running, but he's 540 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: like done all the talking. Yeah, he talked about it, 541 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: and he was like doing like concerts and mentioning it. Yeah. Yeah. 542 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 1: Well luckily we just we just have this terrible, terrible 543 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 1: song to deal with. So the song is actually going 544 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 1: to be president. I'm sorry. It's actually the new new 545 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: Supreme Court justice. It's it's We the People by Kid Rock. 546 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: It's an n f T of We the People by 547 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: Kid Rock is our newest Supreme Court Justice. That's that's 548 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,959 Speaker 1: where we're at. I feel like it does like the 549 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 1: the positioning of we just have to come together and 550 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: like criticizing division as like the enemy and like divisiveness 551 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: and like not coming together like that that does seem 552 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 1: to be coming of the new reality. Is that the 553 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: right wants us all to come together, and so does 554 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: a lot of like the quote unquote centrists like that. 555 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: It's just like the knee. It's like, hey, can we 556 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 1: can we not be so repulsed by racism and bagot tree. 557 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: That's what they mean by come together. They're like, I'm 558 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: a biggot, but like let's come together. And yeah, I'm 559 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: maybe actively trying to do things to disenfranchise you, but 560 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean you gotta just like make fun of 561 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 1: me on us and know all the time, right, come on, 562 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: it's like really unfair. It really hurts my feelings anyway. 563 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: So yes, just wanted to touch in on that bit 564 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: of right wing activity before this next piece of right 565 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: wing creativity. Yeah, I mean, well, amandad it any any 566 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: insight from your time with the Proud Boys? Does this? 567 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: Does this channel the vibes that you were feeling back 568 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: backstage at the resurgence of Nazism in America? Right loved 569 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: their rappers, they sure do. They love they love bad 570 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: rap music, they love maga music. It is really embarrassingly bad. 571 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: Sometimes the music comes on and it's like people live 572 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: performing and you're just like, man, I wish that you 573 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: could just like, can the Nazi just talk again? Like 574 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: can we get this guy out of here? Because it's 575 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 1: just so awful. I mean, because this is like the 576 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 1: best thing I would offer, right, because he's like famous 577 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:43,959 Speaker 1: people who are like performing at like Trump to Row 578 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: and stuff who were just like I guess Kanye too. 579 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 1: I mean, if you really did a show, that would 580 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 1: have been something at that time. But yeah, so that's 581 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: just so wild to me. Like I can really imagine 582 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: where you have to go to these events and like 583 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 1: listen to these people speak, but they're like fuck, there's 584 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: or musical acts like I can only watch these little 585 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: girls like seeing like third Reich hymns for so long 586 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: before it starts getting stale. Right Yeah, yeah, but again, 587 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: in the movie version of your story, there what you will, 588 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 1: that's somebody will get up and wrapping. He'll be like 589 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: suddenly Dreamweaver will be playing in your head and they'll 590 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 1: be soft focus and they will have bars. Like the 591 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 1: dude who was wrapping it at the Capitol on the 592 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: on January six, who shot the music video. Yeah, like 593 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: that's the moment. You're you're at the Capitol and then 594 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: you see the guy rapping and like, hold on a second, 595 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 1: that's right, I'm like stop to steal, that's right, let's 596 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: get this, let's get this ship.

It may have held up for maybe ten 606 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: more minutes had he not posted like a dumb, like 607 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:33,880 Speaker 1: little Facebook flex post with a Sarcy Lanister quote. And 608 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,280 Speaker 1: this post has brought us to the point where now 609 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: where the or a federal prosecutors are having to explain 610 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:43,280 Speaker 1: the plot of Game of Thrones to begin to connect 611 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,319 Speaker 1: the dots for people about what this person's intent was 612 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: at the Capitol. So, two days after the insurrection, this 613 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: guy posted an image of a soldier from the American 614 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:55,240 Speaker 1: Revolution with the caption quote, as said by Sarcey Lanister, 615 00:35:55,760 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 1: I choose violence. So then and the footnote of this 616 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: this prosecute the document they're talking about how this whole so, 617 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: this whole thing happens. Quote. Searcy Lanister is a fictional 618 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: character in the HBO television series Game of Thrones. After 619 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 1: being confronted by a group of politically empowered religious Selids 620 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 1: who warned her that if she does not yield to them, 621 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: there will be violence, Searcy Landister responds, I choose violence. 622 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: They go on to say that The footnotes also explains 623 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: that Searcy used quote a weapon of mass destruction to 624 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,760 Speaker 1: blow up one of the largest and most important buildings 625 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: in the capital city, which contained politicians and religious religious leaders. 626 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean I didn't even make that connection. 627 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 1: That is good background. Yeah, and I don't even think 628 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 1: that guy, did you know what? Probably when I read that, 629 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, that's right, because what was the 630 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: what was that ship called the night? What that that 631 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 1: green ship that they used to blow up the Yeah, 632 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: you don't talking about whatever. This is how long the 633 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 1: show has been. And I put it to the back 634 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: of my mind. But I think for them, it's just 635 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 1: like I like this quote of being like, I have 636 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: a buy inari in front of me, and I'm going 637 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: a tough guy it out. And then so they go 638 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 1: on to say quote in stating I choose violence. Sarci 639 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: Lanister embraced and then carried out mass murder to achieve 640 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: her political ends. In the context of Kaplinger posting this 641 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: just two days after January six, Kaplinger's adoption of this 642 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 1: quote is alarming and provides insight into his mental state 643 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: and intent storming the capital. I mean, I choose violence 644 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,880 Speaker 1: was a meme by that point, so by like references 645 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: saying that it was Searcy Lanister, like attributing it to 646 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 1: that character, I do feel like he's kind of freighting 647 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: it with a little bit of extra when ship posting 648 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 1: in your ship posts exhibit A in your federal prosecution, 649 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: like I'm just ship posting many like no, look really 650 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 1: understand what you're saying here, Oh right, Uh maybe in 651 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 1: your experience uh being they're seeing these people, Amanda like 652 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: there there does seem to be like a blurring between 653 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 1: people thinking or at least like portraying it as like 654 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 1: they're there for the walls and you know the people 655 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,479 Speaker 1: who like we got Trump elected as like a bit 656 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:10,839 Speaker 1: basically and now kind of bleeding into Nazis, like straight 657 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,839 Speaker 1: up Nazis who are trying to overthrow the government.

They think it didn't go 664 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: far enough. I think the founding fathers would be proud 665 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: of what had happened. And they think, you know, like 666 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: they're willing to a minute, they think that the whole 667 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 1: FBI Antifa thing is stupid and embarrassing. And some of 668 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: them will say differently um publicly, especially if they're like 669 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: lower level elected officials, but behind closed doors, that's what 670 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: they all say. Come hard to like this like weird, 671 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 1: Like I mean, I'll get like people who will tell 672 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 1: me many of the people that I met were there 673 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 1: with all the past year, and most of the people 674 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 1: there were there on January six, and I'll have like, 675 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: you know, like Grandma's being like, yeah, it was a 676 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: prayer circle. We held hands and prayed in like gave 677 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,879 Speaker 1: bibles to the homeless people. And I'm like and she's 678 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:21,440 Speaker 1: you know, they'll be like, oh, like all all the 679 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 1: violence with antifa, and it's like, what what are you 680 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 1: talking about? You know, so when it was actually happening, 681 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 1: like everybody was all in. I mean, I mean I 682 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: was at the Capital, so I wasn't you know, like 683 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 1: far away, so I don't know. Maybe there really was 684 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 1: some giant prayers circle closer to the White House. But 685 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 1: when I was there, I mean, people were all in 686 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,399 Speaker 1: the point that people were cheering when the police were like, 687 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,879 Speaker 1: you know, having pepper bombs like at us because they 688 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: thought it was to get Antifa. They thought it was 689 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,399 Speaker 1: to get the counter protesters that were stopping us from 690 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: coming into the capital. Um, so in the moment, everybody 691 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: was all in. It's just like what has happened since? Then? 692 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: You it to yourself and others, right, Yeah, I mean 693 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 1: I was at a prayer circle at the Capitol that day. 694 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: We were like, we didn't even it was a complete coincidence. 695 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,359 Speaker 1: We didn't even know what was happening. We didn't even 696 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,800 Speaker 1: notice it really because we were so into our prayers. 697 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:16,839 Speaker 1: Just yeah, yeah, and then yeah, when and then when 698 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: Jake put on his Viking helmet and like left, You're like, 699 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 1: all right later, bro, I guess I'll see you. Yeah, 700 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 1: And I remember you texted me. You're like, man, that 701 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: Jake guys pretty coot. He's got some ideas. Man. Yeah, 702 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: was like a lot of intersection with like, you know, 703 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 1: like Viking Scandinavian mythology. He was really putting me up on. 704 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: But yeah, so you're saying like in a way that 705 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 1: there's like two levels of engagement, right, Like with the 706 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 1: more chest out fascists, they're like, yeah, we did that, 707 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: and I don't want to hear someone trying to say 708 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 1: that it wasn't us, because that was like they were 709 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 1: they're proud of seeing that. And then on the other hand, 710 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: you'll have these like older people who are less like 711 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,719 Speaker 1: if they're there, their mindset has just been more like 712 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:00,760 Speaker 1: like that they're on more of a a nine mission 713 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: than maybe like a militaristic one. Yeah, I think, I mean, 714 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,399 Speaker 1: like obviously, like I think, you know, saying that people 715 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 1: that were there were Taurus is incredibly disingenuous and obviously bullshit. 716 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: But I will say like those like those some of 717 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,799 Speaker 1: those tourists were just useful idiots that you know, you 718 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 1: need bodies, you need people, or you can't have you 719 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 1: know what you're trying to do. Um And so I 720 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 1: think a lot of people were very convinced they were 721 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 1: on the right side and that even some of the 722 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 1: police were on their side and they saw like what 723 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 1: they were doing as like good, and I think they 724 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: just don't know how to reconcile with that. I mean 725 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 1: even speaking of like Jake, he was at the other 726 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 1: allies and you know, families line up and take pictures 727 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 1: with him, and I think, you know, like I think 728 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: a lot about like those families and those little kids 729 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: who like took pictures with you know, the Q and 730 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 1: on Shaman, and like what do they do with those 731 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 1: pictures now? Like are you still happy you have them? 732 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,720 Speaker 1: Like have you have you disconnected this much in your brain? 733 00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 1: It's just yeah, it's very it's very strange, and it's um. 734 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: I would listen to people as they would talk about 735 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 1: what they witnessed at the Capitol, and they would say 736 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: things like, you know, I saw a bus pull up 737 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,959 Speaker 1: of people and they went and changed in bushes into 738 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 1: MAGA gear, which like why wouldn't they just change in 739 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 1: the bus. It's stupid already. And it would be like 740 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 1: and they'd be like, like one lady was like I 741 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 1: think that they were sex slaves. I think it was 742 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: Antifa sex slaves that were drugged up, and I'm like, 743 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: I mean just literally any thought and not have stake 744 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 1: responsibility for what you did, right, And it sounds like 745 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: there's a lot of like you know, inbuilt world building 746 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 1: and paranoia fueling things that I really think about that 747 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: one part of your right up around like the day before, 748 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 1: like everybody was just sort of in this sort of 749 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 1: stance of like are we about to be attacked? Like 750 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,880 Speaker 1: are we like something going to happen to us? So 751 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: that way, so if we need to project more aggression outwardly, 752 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 1: like that's just a function of us trying to protect ourselves. Like, well, 753 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 1: what was that sort of energy like? Because that really 754 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: struck me when I read that part of how everyone 755 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: was sort of in this like group mindset of paranoia 756 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,319 Speaker 1: to begin like justifying a lot of violence. It was 757 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: really weird. Um. So the first rally was in November, 758 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 1: shortly after the election was called, and that was like, 759 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 1: I mean, there was violence and there was some paranoia. 760 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,800 Speaker 1: But the next rally in December is really where it 761 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: kicked up. And just being around people who literally would 762 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 1: say to me, oh, you're going to your car, you know, 763 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 1: six blocks away there's a lot of enemies afoot. You know, 764 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 1: you have to be safe, you have to be vigilant, 765 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 1: like somebody has to walk you. You know, you can't 766 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 1: go anywhere alone. And like downtown d C is where 767 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 1: this is happening, and DOWNTOWNDC is pretty safe in general, 768 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 1: but during COVID it's pretty much abandoned. So we're the 769 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 1: only people there, you know, um, And it was just 770 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,359 Speaker 1: you know, in November, people were still oh, I backed 771 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 1: the blue and thanking the cops and shaking their hands, 772 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 1: and by December it was you know, the cops are useless. 773 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 1: They are unable to do anything, you know, blue mayors 774 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 1: and every city just let violence, you know, run unchecked 775 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 1: and the cops can't help us even if they want to. 776 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,799 Speaker 1: And so it was like building up this narrative the 777 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: only people that we could trust to protect us with 778 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: the Proud Boys, right. Yeah, there was like you're you're 779 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,760 Speaker 1: reporting kind of I guess I like saw the Proud 780 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:12,879 Speaker 1: Boys that other people like crashing in. But then they're 781 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 1: all all these people, maybe the people who were like 782 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 1: claiming they were in a prayer circle, but they're like 783 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:21,319 Speaker 1: not the Proud Boys, but they're they're in this like 784 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: group where they are under attack and the Proud Boys 785 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 1: are the only ones, like they're to protect them. Like 786 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 1: was like a kind of level of I don't know, 787 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 1: like the dynamic that hadn't really come across to me. 788 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 1: That's so interesting because I mean, like I've I've had 789 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 1: a really hard time consuming media, Like I have not 790 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: followed the arrest or anything from January six es pecially, 791 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 1: I've just been busy. I've had to lead two lives 792 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:51,359 Speaker 1: and that's been taxing. But I also, like I don't 793 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,359 Speaker 1: I found a lot of the covers frustrating and and 794 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,120 Speaker 1: for me, I mean, that set out to me so much. 795 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 1: It's it's like shocking to me that people are surprised 796 00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 1: by it because it was I mean, asked me up 797 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 1: for days like that rally in December I was, I 798 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't shut up about it, Like my friends were probably 799 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:09,440 Speaker 1: like tired of me, you know, I couldn't stop telling people, 800 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,800 Speaker 1: and like something bad is going to happen, Like I 801 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 1: don't know if it's next time or the time after that, 802 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 1: but this is going to be really bad. And then 803 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: you know at Cold it wasn't great. January six not 804 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 1: so good. I mean, people talk about a civil war, 805 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 1: Like the the idea of a civil war has gone 806 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 1: from like a silly thing or like a like sort 807 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 1: of fringe paranoia thing to now something that's being becoming 808 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 1: like a more popular opinion that we're like headed to 809 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 1: something that looks like a civil war. Like I feel 810 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 1: like we're maybe already in sort of a cold civil 811 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:48,879 Speaker 1: war with the occasional flare up. But the more like 812 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 1: we kind of exist in the post January six world, 813 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,360 Speaker 1: the more it seems like a lot of the stuff 814 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,680 Speaker 1: that you were seeing behind the scenes is No, it's 815 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 1: not like that wasn't a breaking point where people like 816 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 1: took a step back and we're like, oh, wow, that 817 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 1: was bad and we need to like learn from that. 818 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:11,800 Speaker 1: It's like you're seeing those that belief system like become 819 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 1: more and more popular and widespread, like that paranoia of 820 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 1: like we're under attack and like only like strong men 821 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 1: can save us. Like I you saw that in the 822 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 1: like New York Times Frank Bruni poll of undecided voters, 823 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:30,240 Speaker 1: Like it was basically unanimous people being like yeah, we're 824 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:33,439 Speaker 1: like the crime is out of control and like it's 825 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 1: because we defunded the police and like all these like 826 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:38,839 Speaker 1: far right talking points that have just like kind of 827 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,320 Speaker 1: made their way out. I don't know, it just feels 828 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 1: like the in that sort of civil war conflict that 829 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 1: people were saying like would never happen the like. I 830 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 1: I also think that like the mainstream media and a 831 00:46:56,280 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 1: lot of people underestimate how strong that like Proud Boys 832 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 1: side of it is and has like continued to become 833 00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,799 Speaker 1: Like what what are your thoughts as somebody who's like 834 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 1: kind of been there for first and seeing it well, 835 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 1: I think it bleeds into like every facet of what 836 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:17,359 Speaker 1: we're seeing right now. I mean, if you can whip 837 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 1: people up into a frenzy and convince them that there's 838 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 1: enemies everywhere, you can get them to do anything you 839 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 1: want as long as you're like providing a way to 840 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: protect them. And so a lot of what you're seeing 841 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 1: now with school boards and stuff that you know, I 842 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 1: was in like little classes being coached on how to 843 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:33,239 Speaker 1: like run for school board in February of one, right, 844 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 1: and it's you know, using those exact same talking points 845 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 1: and instead of doing it and a militia or a 846 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 1: Proud Boys three violence kind of way, it's like, how 847 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 1: can you do this, you know, with a suit On 848 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: and that is why like CRT, you know, critical race 849 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 1: theory being such a big thing. A lot of it 850 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 1: comes from teaching people like this is how you combat 851 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 1: this stuff. This is like if you don't want to 852 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 1: defund the police, if you want crime to be you know, lower, 853 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 1: if you want your kids to be safe in school, 854 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 1: like this is the stuff that you have to do. 855 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,400 Speaker 1: You have to run for office. And like this is 856 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 1: why I knew um and U c RT was going 857 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 1: to be a really big deal because in April I 858 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 1: was at Trump Terral and a woman named Landon Starbuck, 859 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,960 Speaker 1: whose husband is running for Congress. She was like, CRT 860 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 1: is what they are teaching your kids, the Democrats, to 861 00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 1: make them more susceptible to child sex trafficking so that 862 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,919 Speaker 1: they can like, you know, like traffic your kids, which 863 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 1: is like crazy, right, Like it's it's so removed from 864 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 1: reality that teaching people critical race theory is a way 865 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 1: to make them susceptible to be child sex trafficked. There's 866 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 1: no like logical connection, but it works because everybody that 867 00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 1: room was like yeah, absolutely and buzz words. Yeah. Well 868 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:44,720 Speaker 1: at the time, I was like, what the fund is CRT? 869 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:46,840 Speaker 1: Like I had no idea this is April, Like, I 870 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:48,840 Speaker 1: don't know what this is, but that kind of like 871 00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 1: paranoia and fear that they just they just go, they 872 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:53,919 Speaker 1: dial it up all the way and it it makes 873 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,360 Speaker 1: people do like whatever. So it makes the trust toever, 874 00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 1: it makes them willing to run for office, it makes 875 00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 1: them willing to give their money because they're just so 876 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 1: afraid all of the time. And I don't see, you know, 877 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 1: in the media, there's a lot of people just they're 878 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 1: given like equal equal platforms as though both sides are 879 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 1: you know, making good faith, are you mention? Obviously that's 880 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,399 Speaker 1: not true. Well we just need to come together, like 881 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:21,520 Speaker 1: just come together, right on these come together suck on 882 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 1: these yeah, yeah, yeah, So I I don't know, I 883 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:28,560 Speaker 1: don't know when people are gonna wake up to it, 884 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: because it's it's happening, you know, it's no longer just 885 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,400 Speaker 1: happening in violence, which is bad, but like you know, 886 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:36,840 Speaker 1: I think it's worse when it's happening, you know, in 887 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 1: the local election level, where people you can do violence 888 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,439 Speaker 1: like a limited number of times before you're no longer 889 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,759 Speaker 1: allowed to do violence. But if you are on the 890 00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 1: school board, you can do a lot of harm. For 891 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 1: a very long time, right right, Yeah, it's to that 892 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,920 Speaker 1: point of like, you know, the ability for someone to evolve, 893 00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:57,759 Speaker 1: I know, you know when we are d m ng 894 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: your to your time, like I know, vaccine cop Like 895 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:02,879 Speaker 1: I was at some like Q ship with this guy 896 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 1: and you know that and we were talking a little 897 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,839 Speaker 1: bitou Q and you know, like even there, right, I mean, 898 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:12,239 Speaker 1: I'm also really interested to see like what the cognitive 899 00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 1: dissonance is like in real time when you're like in 900 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 1: these groups and everybody's getting ready for one thing to 901 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:22,319 Speaker 1: happen and it doesn't, and you do see sometimes there 902 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 1: will be like a minority of people who make question like, oh, 903 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,919 Speaker 1: like what now when other people like just don't worry 904 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 1: about it, man, just keep going, keep going, keep going. 905 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 1: What is that like sort of what is that process like? 906 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:38,719 Speaker 1: And is that even something that is potentially that could 907 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 1: happen on a wider scale or because like you know, 908 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:42,839 Speaker 1: obviously those people in the minority, because they're the ones 909 00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:45,400 Speaker 1: who are going to somehow you know, look at their 910 00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:47,560 Speaker 1: situation and try and have a reckoning with it. But 911 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:49,440 Speaker 1: you know what, what what was sort of that like 912 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,399 Speaker 1: just to kind of watch that happen in front of you. So, 913 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously what I was doing was, you know, 914 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:56,920 Speaker 1: a self selecting group of people. A lot of these 915 00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 1: cuman On events I went to were between like five 916 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:02,799 Speaker 1: hundred twelve dollars to get in the door, So if 917 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:05,040 Speaker 1: you're like having questions, you're probably not going to pay 918 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 1: all that money. So what I would see more of 919 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:11,240 Speaker 1: would be like problems that people would have with influencers. 920 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 1: So you know, maybe someone doesn't like something that Mike 921 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 1: Flinn said, or somebody doesn't like something that you know, 922 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: some other you know, Lynn Wood said. But that being said, 923 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 1: the influencers themselves are very good at like dealing with 924 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 1: that and kind of like trying to make those like 925 00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:29,080 Speaker 1: fears go away. And I have found that when things 926 00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 1: don't pan out, people, if they get upset, blame an influencer. 927 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 1: So the way like Q and On works is that, 928 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:38,520 Speaker 1: you know, all of these que drops came out and 929 00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 1: there's no that's no longer happening, but people would bake 930 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 1: them and they would try to figure out you know, 931 00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 1: whatever secret meaning they could figure out, and a lot 932 00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 1: of the influencers, uh, you know, would speak on these 933 00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 1: que drops, so it's easier to be like, oh, well, 934 00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:54,840 Speaker 1: you know, so and so's interpretation was wrong versus you know, 935 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:58,280 Speaker 1: QUE is wrong. And there's always you know, some excuse. 936 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 1: Lynn Wood in particular, er would say stuff, you know 937 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:06,360 Speaker 1: like Q is you, and Q is me, and Q 938 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,840 Speaker 1: is all the people who hate child sex trafficking. So 939 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:12,840 Speaker 1: you know, we don't really need to have any answers 940 00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 1: because Q is what you feel inside, which is like 941 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:18,640 Speaker 1: genius if you're trying to manipulate a bunch of people, 942 00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 1: but it's also very dumb. M Are there other people 943 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 1: that you see as like, Okay, this is somebody that 944 00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,319 Speaker 1: we're unfortunately going to be hearing a lot from in 945 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,640 Speaker 1: the in the future, Like if you heard about this guy, 946 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:37,839 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. He's having a reality show and I think 947 00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 1: he might have a future. Now do you like, is 948 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 1: there somebody that has a lot of power in that 949 00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 1: underground that you saw that we should be worried about. Well, first, 950 00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna just say I'm shocked about vaccine police making 951 00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:52,919 Speaker 1: national news because that's a weird dude. I mean, even 952 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 1: how Q went on event, You're like, wow, this dude 953 00:52:55,160 --> 00:53:03,160 Speaker 1: is extra. So he just tapped into the fact that 954 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,960 Speaker 1: we all want to drink our p Yeah, yeah, you know, 955 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 1: speaking to the nation. Um, like I think there was 956 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,720 Speaker 1: one influencer in particular I was Um. It was actually 957 00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:16,960 Speaker 1: at the event where I first met vaccine police, and 958 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:19,040 Speaker 1: I was in my hotel lobby and some random people 959 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:21,400 Speaker 1: were like, did you want to go to a baptism 960 00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:24,719 Speaker 1: on the beach And I'm like yeah, okay, So they 961 00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:26,399 Speaker 1: put me in their car and we drove like half 962 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 1: an hour away to go to this baptism and um, 963 00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 1: the guy who was like running it was this guy 964 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,640 Speaker 1: named Brad Barty and who had I don't like thirty 965 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:37,520 Speaker 1: thousand followers on telegram at this time, and since then 966 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 1: he has like a hundred and thirty thousand followers. He 967 00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:44,320 Speaker 1: hosted a nine eleven Memorial Day event that featured General 968 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,239 Speaker 1: Flynn and Lynn would that I paid five dollars to 969 00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 1: go to and I had to bring my own chair, 970 00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 1: which meant I had to buy a chair at the 971 00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 1: event in addition to buying my ticket. WHOA, yeah, I 972 00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 1: got okay, keep going because I have more grift questions. Yes, yeah, 973 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 1: I call it my b y oc my bringer in 974 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:05,839 Speaker 1: chair event. So I did that. I went to another 975 00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 1: event he had in South Carolina. So he is like 976 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,160 Speaker 1: becoming huge, but he's not really like gaining me like 977 00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 1: media attraction. He certainly has a bigger following the vaccine 978 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,880 Speaker 1: police does. I did get to keep the chair. I 979 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,440 Speaker 1: was a twenty five dollar chair. I got a deal 980 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:22,480 Speaker 1: on the chair. So okay. The chair is like it 981 00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:25,080 Speaker 1: looks like a plate, but then you twist it, you know, 982 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 1: theo's like finger traps. It's kind of like you like 983 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:29,040 Speaker 1: pulls like it kind of looks like that when you 984 00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:31,680 Speaker 1: pull it out. So it's like portable so you can 985 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:34,400 Speaker 1: put it in your luggage when you're done. The chairs 986 00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:37,480 Speaker 1: were thirty five dollars, but the woman selling the chairs 987 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:39,520 Speaker 1: was like friendly with me because I had seen her 988 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:41,440 Speaker 1: so many times. So she gave me a bargain for 989 00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 1: twenty five dollar chair. So five hunter for the ticket 990 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: for the chair. Wow. And that's like, and that's someone 991 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 1: who that's like their side business. Someone just like I 992 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:53,400 Speaker 1: know they're not gonna have chairs here, so I'm just 993 00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:56,520 Speaker 1: gonna set up my chair shop. Oh man, I'm gonna 994 00:54:56,760 --> 00:55:00,439 Speaker 1: really mess your day up. Okay. So she sells all 995 00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 1: this Trump stuff at like every event you can imagine, 996 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:07,239 Speaker 1: like like Second Amendment or events, um like things that 997 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 1: trumped around like she like donates money to Trump at 998 00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:12,879 Speaker 1: he's blinked out purses that's say Trump on them. She's 999 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 1: got she actually sold me. I have a hat that 1000 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,319 Speaker 1: says like fun Biden that she has sold me at 1001 00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 1: a different event. She's every every Q and on or 1002 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 1: Trump event you can think of. They have a presence, 1003 00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:25,640 Speaker 1: her little company does. But yeah, she knew it wasn't 1004 00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:27,360 Speaker 1: bringing around chair event, so she ordered a bunch of 1005 00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:30,080 Speaker 1: chairs because she also sells them at Trump like rallies 1006 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:33,360 Speaker 1: when he speaks. So there's like a whole side world 1007 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:36,520 Speaker 1: of like whatever you want to sell. I'm always struck by, 1008 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:38,720 Speaker 1: like the black people selling the stuff at the events, 1009 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 1: and I'm like, look at this just hustling because I'm like, 1010 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:43,160 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how many of these people. I saw 1011 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:44,759 Speaker 1: like one video a guy I was like, I'm just 1012 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 1: selling this ship as it sells, and You're like, wow, 1013 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 1: what an interesting And then you have the people who 1014 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 1: are like, I'm so devoted. I do customed to jeweled 1015 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 1: pimp cups for let's a go Brandon and we got 1016 00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:58,719 Speaker 1: it all right, Yeah, let's take a quick break. I 1017 00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:01,799 Speaker 1: do want to ask about weakness, says and that like 1018 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 1: the scam ability of the like supporter base seems to 1019 00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:09,839 Speaker 1: be one potential one. But yeah, let's take a quick break. 1020 00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:20,960 Speaker 1: We'll be right back to talk more about this, and 1021 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:25,960 Speaker 1: we're back. And you know, Florida always leads the way, 1022 00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:30,239 Speaker 1: maybe even more than Donald Trump. Since January six, but 1023 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:34,040 Speaker 1: so late last year, our boy De Santis proposed a 1024 00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:38,680 Speaker 1: bill that would allow parents to sue schools if their 1025 00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:42,759 Speaker 1: kids are taught critical race theory. M hm, and they 1026 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:47,399 Speaker 1: suspected it. Yeah, and now that logic is evolving into 1027 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:51,440 Speaker 1: a new bill that it's essentially makes it illegal to 1028 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 1: make white people feel bad about like reality, like anything. 1029 00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:59,919 Speaker 1: What it is? The bill which just made it out 1030 00:56:59,920 --> 00:57:03,920 Speaker 1: of like an education committee says this quote. An individual, 1031 00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:06,839 Speaker 1: by virtue of his or her race or sex, does 1032 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:10,319 Speaker 1: not bear responsibility for actions committed in the past by 1033 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:14,279 Speaker 1: other members of the same race or sex. An individual 1034 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:18,760 Speaker 1: should not be made to feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or 1035 00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:23,320 Speaker 1: any other form of psychological distress on account of his 1036 00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 1: or her race. Facts. Don't care about your feelings, I thought, though, no, like, 1037 00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:35,439 Speaker 1: there's nothing consistent. This is just amazing that like this 1038 00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:37,640 Speaker 1: is uh, you know, the darling of the right in 1039 00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:41,680 Speaker 1: conservative debate culture and and all that bullshit. Ben Shapiro, 1040 00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:44,080 Speaker 1: his whole slogan is facts don't care about your feelings. 1041 00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:47,960 Speaker 1: And yet this is the epitome. This is the most 1042 00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:51,440 Speaker 1: like I I don't want to feel bad about anything 1043 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:55,560 Speaker 1: bullshit that I have ever read. It's pretty incredible. I mean, 1044 00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,160 Speaker 1: I think most observers are right to point out that 1045 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 1: it's like this looks this bill looks like it's tailored 1046 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:04,160 Speaker 1: exclusively for white people, you know what I mean, Like this, 1047 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:07,400 Speaker 1: who is this for? Because it's obviously you know, this 1048 00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:10,440 Speaker 1: is this isn't an actual problem, you know, or but 1049 00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:12,880 Speaker 1: it's more just like the legal equivalent of like sticking 1050 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:15,280 Speaker 1: your fingers in your ears and closing your eyes and 1051 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:19,600 Speaker 1: screaming as a way to like avoid you know, having 1052 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 1: any kind of reckoning or self awareness around history. But yeah, 1053 00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 1: I mean this is all just sort of part of 1054 00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: the same effort to just nullify the concept of discrimination 1055 00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:30,880 Speaker 1: and the hopes that it will just create more racists 1056 00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:34,520 Speaker 1: without any kind of historical awareness. Yeah, like what does 1057 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:39,160 Speaker 1: that future look like if they are like continue to 1058 00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:43,560 Speaker 1: be successful and it's a world where you're not allowed 1059 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:47,120 Speaker 1: to bring up like that. It's like I'm trying to 1060 00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 1: like put it in the context of like the future dystopias. 1061 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 1: It's just like not a future dystopia that anyone had 1062 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 1: really laid out, you know, like what what is the 1063 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 1: Florida version of the The Watchmen like museum, It's like 1064 00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 1: they actually take into account, like what would happened, Like 1065 00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 1: what's that version? It seems like just in general, they 1066 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:13,919 Speaker 1: want to set the table energetically to be like, hey man, 1067 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 1: everything's all good here, like nobody's oppressed here, okay, And 1068 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,560 Speaker 1: like if you're bringing that up, like that's bullshit because 1069 00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 1: nobody's oppressed here. So it just looks like modern America. Yeah, yeah, 1070 00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 1: I just I you know, similar to the Texas abortion 1071 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:32,080 Speaker 1: law and this one the part of it where it 1072 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:35,439 Speaker 1: says that basically anybody can sue anybody for this and 1073 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:38,440 Speaker 1: claim that they were breaking the law. It's just we're 1074 00:59:38,520 --> 00:59:42,160 Speaker 1: turning the public into a bunch of dogs, the bounty hunters. 1075 00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:46,160 Speaker 1: But about abortion and critical race theory and ship and like, 1076 00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 1: the ability to do this means that it's going to 1077 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:52,280 Speaker 1: have people just accusing folks left and right just you know, 1078 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:54,480 Speaker 1: just because they don't like them. You know, you're pissed 1079 00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:57,720 Speaker 1: at your neighbor because they blew their leaves into your 1080 00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:00,760 Speaker 1: yard and then you claim that they were talking to 1081 01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:03,120 Speaker 1: your kid about Martin Luther King or the civil rights 1082 01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:06,320 Speaker 1: or some ship, and like it's just it's, uh, that's 1083 01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:09,840 Speaker 1: the future instead of having this like police state where 1084 01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:13,520 Speaker 1: there's like a one in their mind, like you know, 1085 01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:17,920 Speaker 1: some communist police department that is is coming to your 1086 01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:21,320 Speaker 1: home and and arresting you. It's just everybody is going 1087 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 1: to be able to point the finger and accuse each 1088 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,920 Speaker 1: other and breaking laws like that seems to be the 1089 01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:32,560 Speaker 1: Republican dystopian future. That's like or East Germany. Yeah, yeah, exactly, 1090 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:36,240 Speaker 1: just everybody like we've and we've enabled everyone to go 1091 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:39,640 Speaker 1: on to snitche mode. But yeah, it's and it's it's 1092 01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:42,800 Speaker 1: just very cynical. But this is again a cynical party 1093 01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:45,000 Speaker 1: doing whatever they can to kind of keep this going. 1094 01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 1: So if there are any there's any sort of historical 1095 01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:51,480 Speaker 1: precedent that makes what they do now look bad, it's like, 1096 01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:53,240 Speaker 1: well then we can't talk about that ship at all. 1097 01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:55,480 Speaker 1: But the one hope I have is that when you 1098 01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:58,600 Speaker 1: look at the like literal complexion of this country and 1099 01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:02,480 Speaker 1: like how these younger generations and the diversity of America 1100 01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 1: begins to change more and more and more. I don't 1101 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 1: know how many kids of color you're going to be 1102 01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:10,960 Speaker 1: able to like get away from this idea that oppression 1103 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:13,880 Speaker 1: isn't real, because on some level it's going to be lived. 1104 01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:16,760 Speaker 1: And that is a whole other dimension too. You can 1105 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:18,600 Speaker 1: you can only teach people so much. But if the 1106 01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 1: lived experience is one thing that does, that does move 1107 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 1: people in a certain direction. But I think that's the 1108 01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:28,240 Speaker 1: most optimistic read at the moment. Yeah, alright, let's uh, 1109 01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:32,760 Speaker 1: let's shift focus over to the Biden administration. They're not 1110 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 1: nailing it with like the big core promises they made, 1111 01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:46,520 Speaker 1: such as securing voting rights and that that stuff, climate change, 1112 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:50,640 Speaker 1: climate change. You know, they're they're still just like throwing 1113 01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 1: up their hands and being liked. I mean, what fucking cinema. Yeah, yeah, 1114 01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:59,520 Speaker 1: so that that's not looking good. So we wanted to 1115 01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:02,440 Speaker 1: check in with one of his other campaign promises that 1116 01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,880 Speaker 1: I hadn't even really noticed at the time, but this 1117 01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 1: is the quote from Biden during the campaign. I promise you, 1118 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:15,400 Speaker 1: if I'm elected president, you're gonna see the single most 1119 01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:20,200 Speaker 1: important thing that changes America. We're gonna cure cancer? Whoa 1120 01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:27,040 Speaker 1: that is? That makes me so scared that they're cure 1121 01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:29,360 Speaker 1: for cancer exists. They're just trying to figure out when 1122 01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:31,720 Speaker 1: to deploy that ship. Yeah seriously, Yeah, you know what 1123 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 1: I mean, Like that almost seems like yo, I was 1124 01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 1: talking to the home he's at Mark right, like an 1125 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:40,120 Speaker 1: October campaign surprise or something. Yeah, exactly, They're gonna save 1126 01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:42,919 Speaker 1: it for the second term or something or mid terms 1127 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:45,480 Speaker 1: or something. He's like, y'all if the house goes red, 1128 01:02:45,600 --> 01:02:48,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I got this cancer cure. Maybe not, I 1129 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:51,280 Speaker 1: just't have I guess y'all weren't good this year. So 1130 01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 1: that's been body being kept on ice. That's like, yeah, right, 1131 01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 1: that's a bold statement. Yeah, it's a it's I'm strong. 1132 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:04,440 Speaker 1: He came, he came with it. I thought for sure, 1133 01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:07,440 Speaker 1: like I know it's you know, it's in the italics 1134 01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:09,800 Speaker 1: and everything. So I assumed it was on the show 1135 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,280 Speaker 1: document that it was a real quote. But that does 1136 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:15,040 Speaker 1: not sound real at all. Yeah, We're gonna cure cancer. 1137 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 1: That sounds that sounds like a Simpsons quote or something 1138 01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:21,080 Speaker 1: of like a politician like running for all this that 1139 01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:25,240 Speaker 1: does not sound right. And all the rain will be 1140 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:29,800 Speaker 1: root beer. You're like, yes, I love the Scott and 1141 01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:32,720 Speaker 1: every pet you've ever known will will come back and 1142 01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 1: greet you. H you know from your childhood exactly who 1143 01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:40,920 Speaker 1: what other presidential candidates the first in necromancy. It wasn't 1144 01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 1: just a one time, you know, his riff gun misfiring. 1145 01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:48,600 Speaker 1: This was a thing that he repeated another time. He 1146 01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:52,120 Speaker 1: mentioned it another direct quote. I've worked so hard in 1147 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:55,360 Speaker 1: my career that I promise you, if I'm elected president, 1148 01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:57,560 Speaker 1: You're going to see the single most important thing that 1149 01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:00,480 Speaker 1: changes in America. I've worked so hard in my career 1150 01:04:00,600 --> 01:04:05,080 Speaker 1: that it's it's like the central like the that neoliberal 1151 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:09,000 Speaker 1: idea that like, well you just study hard, work hard, 1152 01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:12,920 Speaker 1: and like it pays off and you become a billionaire. 1153 01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:16,280 Speaker 1: And if you don't, then you should have worked a 1154 01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:20,640 Speaker 1: little bit harder. And that is just that ideal misfiring 1155 01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:23,840 Speaker 1: in his brain to be well, I've I've worked hard. 1156 01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:25,680 Speaker 1: I mean, look at me. I'm running for president, so 1157 01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 1: I must have done something right, and therefore I'm gonna 1158 01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:33,120 Speaker 1: cure cancer. It's definitely got guy whose wife is threatening 1159 01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 1: to leave him energy and like he babe, I swear 1160 01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:38,760 Speaker 1: to god, it's going to be different. This time, like 1161 01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:41,520 Speaker 1: you know, we're we're gonna we're gonna buy that house 1162 01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:44,520 Speaker 1: that you've been wanting. You know, we'll we'll we'll spend 1163 01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:46,720 Speaker 1: more time together, and I'm gonna cure cancer. I mean 1164 01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:49,840 Speaker 1: it also has like the dude talking to Lenny in 1165 01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:53,080 Speaker 1: of Mice and Men energy, like right before he shoots 1166 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:56,600 Speaker 1: him in the back and head. Yeah, yeah, it's all 1167 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 1: We're going to cure cancer, Georgia. Oh boy, I'm so sorry. 1168 01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but wait, so what is what is that 1169 01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 1: even feasible? I mean because what what's like the because 1170 01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:17,960 Speaker 1: I get their constant advancements, right, I always see different 1171 01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:23,000 Speaker 1: like obviously the oncology treatments and that that researches is 1172 01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:26,040 Speaker 1: rapidly progressing all the time, But like, is that even 1173 01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:28,760 Speaker 1: is that even close? Like is even swinging at something 1174 01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:31,360 Speaker 1: that can even be hit for a single it's close? 1175 01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:35,400 Speaker 1: For so, cancer is a catch all name for hundreds 1176 01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:38,680 Speaker 1: and maybe even thousands of types of diseases. We have 1177 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:41,880 Speaker 1: cured some of them. Like that's that's the sort of 1178 01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:44,520 Speaker 1: ship that also America is really bad at is like 1179 01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 1: stopping and being like, yo, they just cured like this 1180 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:51,160 Speaker 1: type of cancer they used to like the doctor would 1181 01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:54,520 Speaker 1: just tell you have eighteen months, like now they cure it. 1182 01:05:54,840 --> 01:05:57,600 Speaker 1: Like that ship is wild. We don't really report that. 1183 01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:00,680 Speaker 1: But yeah, so it's not a single disease. There are 1184 01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:04,800 Speaker 1: massive advances happening all the time, and in like cancer 1185 01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:08,680 Speaker 1: treatment and even like cancer cures. By the way, I 1186 01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 1: do want to just note that this idea that sounds 1187 01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 1: so absurd to us that like we are assuming that 1188 01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:19,439 Speaker 1: it was like immediately buried by the his like administration 1189 01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:24,240 Speaker 1: staffer or his campaign staffers. Trump heard it and immediately 1190 01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:27,680 Speaker 1: said that he was going to cure cancer. Rat battle 1191 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:32,400 Speaker 1: of false holy as just he would cure cancer. If 1192 01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:36,840 Speaker 1: that's incredible. We will come up with the cures. Too 1193 01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:40,880 Speaker 1: many many problems, too many many diseases, including cancer and others, 1194 01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:44,120 Speaker 1: and we're getting closer all the time. Somebody taught that 1195 01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:46,240 Speaker 1: man about type one diabetes because I've had that sin 1196 01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,320 Speaker 1: since I was nine years old, and there's still no 1197 01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:51,240 Speaker 1: cure in sight for that one. So, you know, because 1198 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:54,800 Speaker 1: somebody taunt taunt Trump, you know, tell him a you 1199 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:57,360 Speaker 1: know what, your bitch ass can't do type one diabetes, 1200 01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:03,880 Speaker 1: the pharmacy local companies problem, we could. It's just that insulin. 1201 01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 1: That that's that's quite the profit margin. Trump had proposed 1202 01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 1: shrinking the National Cancer Institute's overall budget by almost nine 1203 01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:16,240 Speaker 1: million dollars. So that was what he had done to, 1204 01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:19,880 Speaker 1: you know, help, but you can't. If you can't diagnose cancer, 1205 01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:22,400 Speaker 1: then it it's not They're like, that's that's what he 1206 01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:25,280 Speaker 1: was trying to do. Yeah, it's all think poorly in 1207 01:07:25,320 --> 01:07:30,680 Speaker 1: your old age exactly. Scientology. They got some my interesting 1208 01:07:30,720 --> 01:07:34,120 Speaker 1: ideas about whether cancer is real or whether you're just 1209 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:39,120 Speaker 1: scared but anyways, or you just need more E meter readings. Yeah. 1210 01:07:39,320 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 1: So Biden's idea was basically based on this thing where 1211 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:47,360 Speaker 1: they would create a version of DARPA, like you know, 1212 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:53,080 Speaker 1: the amazing like futuristic technology weapons designer called ARPA. H 1213 01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:56,880 Speaker 1: that would be like the healthcare version of DARPA, where 1214 01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:00,240 Speaker 1: like you just have all of the smartest people using 1215 01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:03,560 Speaker 1: all the money and all the futuristic technology to like 1216 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 1: try out all these outside the box things on cancer cures. 1217 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:12,640 Speaker 1: Instead of like fucking bombs that can like dig thirty 1218 01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:16,439 Speaker 1: miles underground, They're just gonna be like, Yo, this hypersonic 1219 01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:22,439 Speaker 1: missile cures cancer. This this drone cures cancer. The it 1220 01:08:22,479 --> 01:08:25,439 Speaker 1: also happens to kill everything within a thirteen mile radius, 1221 01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:28,599 Speaker 1: but the cancer is gone technically, so yeah, it won't 1222 01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:34,519 Speaker 1: show up on X ray. So in the spring of one, 1223 01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:38,040 Speaker 1: Biden put together his proposal for our H with a 1224 01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:42,160 Speaker 1: budget for the year two of six point five billion dollars. 1225 01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:47,679 Speaker 1: So he tried and it was unsuccessful. You're never gonna 1226 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:51,400 Speaker 1: believe this. It was unsuccessful. It's been cut down multiple times. 1227 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:53,800 Speaker 1: Now we're looking at a third of it. And also 1228 01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:59,280 Speaker 1: he proposed he changed the proposal from being a standalone 1229 01:08:59,320 --> 01:09:02,719 Speaker 1: agency and the whole point is like it's standalone agency 1230 01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:04,800 Speaker 1: that like can think outside the box on all this 1231 01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:09,240 Speaker 1: ship like to being a wing of the National National 1232 01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:13,720 Speaker 1: Institute of Health, which is like very bureaucratic and is 1233 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:16,879 Speaker 1: sort of the thing that you would propose this idea 1234 01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:20,000 Speaker 1: to like get around is like, well, so here's like 1235 01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:22,760 Speaker 1: what's interesting about this idea is we have this like 1236 01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 1: thing of people who are just kind of like blue 1237 01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:28,599 Speaker 1: skying in and seeing like if they come up with 1238 01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:33,000 Speaker 1: something and everybody's like, well that so that doesn't you 1239 01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:36,400 Speaker 1: don't really have anything. Then you're just like giving the 1240 01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:41,200 Speaker 1: National Institute of Health more money and they'll funk it up. Somehow, 1241 01:09:41,720 --> 01:09:44,479 Speaker 1: So I don't know. It's it seems like it is 1242 01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:49,360 Speaker 1: not shockingly a watered down version of a water down 1243 01:09:49,720 --> 01:09:52,800 Speaker 1: idea that is now being funded at one third of 1244 01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:55,680 Speaker 1: what the request was. There is still funding for it, 1245 01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:58,120 Speaker 1: but it doesn't seem like we're gonna get this like 1246 01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:01,400 Speaker 1: thunderbolt from the sky. Also, like you think about how 1247 01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:04,120 Speaker 1: much COVID has disrupted the hospital, Like I have family 1248 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:07,680 Speaker 1: who had to get cancer treatment and during the pandemic, 1249 01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:10,439 Speaker 1: and it was not easy, you know what I mean. 1250 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:14,040 Speaker 1: And to even think it's like you get the fucking 1251 01:10:14,240 --> 01:10:17,040 Speaker 1: hospitals running first before you start being like and then 1252 01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:19,559 Speaker 1: we're gonna cure cancer because so many people have had 1253 01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:22,160 Speaker 1: to delay all kinds of checkups and things like that, 1254 01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:26,240 Speaker 1: and the stress of living in a pandemic. You're fucking 1255 01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 1: You're like, being on top of your health can go 1256 01:10:28,479 --> 01:10:30,439 Speaker 1: into the back real quick and next thing you know, 1257 01:10:30,479 --> 01:10:33,439 Speaker 1: you could have serious health issues. It's just like there's 1258 01:10:33,479 --> 01:10:38,280 Speaker 1: so much ship compounding this that it's very very frustrating. Yeah, 1259 01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:40,439 Speaker 1: almost what we get the whole health care system is 1260 01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:43,720 Speaker 1: to be fixed and not just like I'm gonna get 1261 01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 1: a splashy headline by making the a team of cancer research. 1262 01:10:48,720 --> 01:10:52,599 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean he so he in February twenty one, 1263 01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:54,960 Speaker 1: he said he was going to do everything we can 1264 01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:57,880 Speaker 1: to end cancer as we know it once we beat COVID. 1265 01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:01,479 Speaker 1: And like you said that, the idea that there are 1266 01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:06,520 Speaker 1: two separate things is wrong and misguided, and the pandemic 1267 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:11,040 Speaker 1: is massively affecting millions of Yeah, it's all it's all systemic, 1268 01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:14,440 Speaker 1: this whole, this whole thing. And I've been intimately familiar 1269 01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:17,479 Speaker 1: with our health care system. Like I said, I was 1270 01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:19,880 Speaker 1: diagnosed with diabetes when I was nine years old.
