Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 1: I feel like so much stuff happened.
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 1: It's been six weeks since Friday. It feels like, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I went on TikTok for the first time.
Speaker 2: Ever, willingly not for work, Yeah, just because it really
Speaker 2: banned very briefly, and I was like, let's see what's
Speaker 2: going on on TikTok while the Americans are gone?
Speaker 1: And there was nothing going on on TikTok. I still
Speaker 1: don't know how to use.
Speaker 3: It, everybody. It turns out you just had your app
Speaker 3: store open. Everybody was just posting like really fun anti
Speaker 3: American content, Like there was somebody who was like dancing
Speaker 3: to crazy music and it was like centimeters color.
Speaker 1: Color you. Yeah, what the metric system remember that? Remember
Speaker 1: when we were planning to change to the metric system. Now,
Speaker 1: in so many ways, the US has just been like, bah.
Speaker 3: Fuck it, ye, we don't need to measure, we don't
Speaker 3: need to measure our bombs in metric times.
Speaker 1: We are who who we are. It's just full on.
Speaker 1: I wonder if full on we are who we are?
Speaker 3: We are who we are, Hello.
Speaker 1: The Internet, and welcome to this week. Trend edition of
Speaker 1: gist's How My Voice Feels, That's How My Soul Feels.
Speaker 1: It's production by Heart Radio. This is the episode where
Speaker 1: we come in very early on our first day back
Speaker 1: after the after the weekend, in this case, the long
Speaker 1: Martin Luther King weekend, and tell you what was trending
Speaker 1: over the past three days. I'm thrilled to be joined
Speaker 1: by today's very special guest co host, a hilarious stand
Speaker 1: up comedian. Ah, my voice is not sore from being
Speaker 1: at the inaugural ball in case anybody's why voice sure
Speaker 1: from from light saluting. Just you know, it's actually not that.
Speaker 1: So I did like kind of rolled my shoulder out
Speaker 1: a little bit. So she feeling pretty good. Jesus christ uh, Paulay.
Speaker 1: Usually we're like, how are you doing this?
Speaker 3: When it's happening, it's like nothing. You know that we
Speaker 3: were talking about mister Burns earlier, but you know that
Speaker 3: mister Burns doctor reference where he goes to the doctor
Speaker 3: and he gets a check up and they're like, you
Speaker 3: actually have everything, but because they're all there, none of
Speaker 3: them can get through this door. That's what it feels
Speaker 3: like the world right now. I'm like, let me go
Speaker 3: read a book.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it really does. It's just a giant,
Speaker 1: sustained ball of shit that is a kind of all
Speaker 1: holding itself together kind of not really though, it's just
Speaker 1: it really a thing that we kept coming back to.
Speaker 1: I forget who who the historical quote was from, but
Speaker 1: during the first Trump administration on the show, we would
Speaker 1: repeatedly say, you know, things can get worse. It's hard
Speaker 1: to imagine at the at the time, the things can
Speaker 1: get worse, and they are. They are worse. This is worse.
Speaker 3: I think the straight you know how, like the gay
Speaker 3: campaign was like it gets better, but this is like
Speaker 3: the hetero agenda.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, getting worse.
Speaker 3: Guys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, as promised, it's getting worse. So we're going to
Speaker 1: talk about some of the details from Trump's inauguration TikTok
Speaker 1: like kind of throat in the boot, just all sorts
Speaker 1: of Elon Musk doing a doing an actual Nazi salute.
Speaker 1: But before we get into that, we do like to
Speaker 1: let the listeners, and you're welcome for this, listeners, let
Speaker 1: the listeners get to know us a little bit better
Speaker 1: by telling them some stuff we think is overrated, some
Speaker 1: stuff we think is underrated. Paul you want us to
Speaker 1: you want to kick us off withted Oh.
Speaker 3: My god, speaking of this weekend. You know it's overrated history.
Speaker 3: We're not learning from it. Why are we studying it?
Speaker 1: Still? We are?
Speaker 3: Are the point if you can do a Nazi salute
Speaker 3: in the middle of everything and the ADL is like, well,
Speaker 3: he's just enthusiastic.
Speaker 1: Or just an awkward gesture done very enthusiastically.
Speaker 3: Yeah. So I'm like everybody's like, we got to learn
Speaker 3: from the mistakes of history. I'm like, I feel like
Speaker 3: just current empathy isn't working, So like, how are we
Speaker 3: try to outsmart history? Sorry, history heads, I'm getting dumber
Speaker 3: as we speak. Yeah, fuck, history care cares about where
Speaker 3: I came from or what happened or why we have
Speaker 3: the values we care about.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel that my overrated is giving apps five stars,
Speaker 1: like every time. It feels like every time I encounter
Speaker 1: an app, Like I'm using Microsoft Outlook as an email
Speaker 1: client because it is mandated by my workplace, and they
Speaker 1: ask if I want to rate them, and out of curiosity,
Speaker 1: I like check. I was like, what what kind of
Speaker 1: ratings are? Is Microsoft Outlook? Kind of ratings? Is Instagram?
Speaker 1: Getting so funny? It's five stars, like across the board,
Speaker 1: Like this industry that we are now aware is trying
Speaker 1: to take away our free will is successfully take away
Speaker 1: our free will and is now openly in league with
Speaker 1: the Trump administration. They're like on the veranda as he's
Speaker 1: getting sworn in, Like we're just giving them default five stars.
Speaker 1: Like I feel like we need to recalibrate our grading
Speaker 1: curve when it comes to to the apps that these
Speaker 1: massive companies are putting out, like start with a baseline
Speaker 1: of zero, and if they do something that suggests that
Speaker 1: they're not going to try to rob you a free
Speaker 1: will or like destroy democracy in order to gain power,
Speaker 1: they like get up to one one star.
Speaker 3: You know, I think there should be multiple like axes
Speaker 3: on which you can rate it, so you could be like, okay,
Speaker 3: yeah it's super fascist, but also I'm still addicted to it,
Speaker 3: so like you know what I mean, don't take it away,
Speaker 3: but like change it, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, That's what I was trying to figure it.
Speaker 1: Like is this just because it's the equivalent of like
Speaker 1: ask it like a drug dealer being like, hey, could
Speaker 1: you rate and review drugs before I give you your nextra drug?
Speaker 3: That is so funny. They're like, let me cater this
Speaker 3: algorithm to you in this math.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Twenty seven million people have rated Instagram
Speaker 1: and the average rating is an A. It's four point
Speaker 1: seven out of five. That's ninety four percent.
Speaker 3: What if every standing meeting Mark Zuckerberg walks in and
Speaker 3: he's like, how are we doing, folks, and they're like, well,
Speaker 3: the ratings are still at five? Keep going.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I think like it got started out
Speaker 1: at a really high level. I guess like when people
Speaker 1: were just like, gee, whiz apps, what can't the tech
Speaker 1: industry do? And now they're just like still there, like
Speaker 1: Microsoft outlook a fuck email client that like most people
Speaker 1: who use it are like this is really frustrating and
Speaker 1: like doesn't work that well. Is that four point eight
Speaker 1: out of five? That's like almost an A plus? Like?
Speaker 1: What why are we? Why do we grade? Like we're
Speaker 1: the hotel management department at like Alabama giving like all
Speaker 1: the football players just like good grades to like get
Speaker 1: their eligibility up. It's just yeah, I don't know if
Speaker 1: it's goodwill left over from the tech industry from like
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, but I feel like we need
Speaker 1: to just say enough is enough and start like giving
Speaker 1: these apps zero stars.
Speaker 3: They aren't immigrant uber drivers. Okay, we need to really
Speaker 3: judge them right.
Speaker 1: By the way.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Brian the Editor has gone to the Google Play Store
Speaker 1: to check out the reviews for the app Covenant Eies,
Speaker 1: which has actually is actually earning a me your four
Speaker 1: point six, which is like an A minus. Actually coveted eyes.
Speaker 1: Are you aware of polity of Covenant Eyes? This is
Speaker 1: the app. So this is the app that Speaker of
Speaker 1: the House Mike Johnson uses to keep him himself and
Speaker 1: his teenage son from jacking off to internet porn. And
Speaker 1: we covered it when it was first.
Speaker 3: In houselt for Internet porn.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's chastity Belt for internet porn. You essentially have
Speaker 1: spyware installed on your phone that will tell on you
Speaker 1: the second you look at porn to another like partner,
Speaker 1: another like accountability partner, and it's uh, it's apparently working
Speaker 1: for these ten points, like basically eleven thousand people who
Speaker 1: have reviewed it as getting an A minus. You'd think
Speaker 1: that there would be more people being like, fuck, this
Speaker 1: thing just told my dad that I was jacking off
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 3: I know. They're like, we hope it wouldn't work. I
Speaker 3: feel like, if you have a problem like that, going
Speaker 3: to like another app isolation thing isn't the best solution. Like,
Speaker 3: I feel like, amidst all of these issues that you're having,
Speaker 3: maybe like connect with people who could help, like human
Speaker 3: beings who could help you, rather than being like, punish me.
Speaker 3: That might be kink. What if they're like if getting
Speaker 3: punished by covenant eyes, They're like, yeah, I've been a
Speaker 3: bad boy.
Speaker 1: I do feel like in the popular consciousness, at least
Speaker 1: people who are obsessed with sexual purity also tend to
Speaker 1: be the people who are like in a dark room
Speaker 1: on their knees, like whipping their own back, you know. Yeah, so.
Speaker 3: The editor it does not work.
Speaker 1: Brian, the editor has pulled this quote from the reviews.
Speaker 1: This was very helpful in my pursuit of sexual purity.
Speaker 1: So that was it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, virgin, No, I'm kidding jobs. It's fine to
Speaker 3: be a virgin. You're fine.
Speaker 1: If you're a virgin, it's fine, it's fine. Weird times,
Speaker 1: I say, we stop giving the tech industry the benefit
Speaker 1: of the doubt and start grading them taking into account
Speaker 1: what they're doing to human civilization.
Speaker 3: Okay, this is how I feel about comedians, like I'm
Speaker 3: gonna have a conversation with someone about comedians, and I'm like,
Speaker 3: people think this person is funny despite like everything about them,
Speaker 3: like despite their politics or whatever. And for me, when
Speaker 3: people have like shitty politics or are bad to women
Speaker 3: and then have a voice of authority on stage, it
Speaker 3: really takes the wind out for me, where I'm like,
Speaker 3: I see through like the Emperor has no clothes sort
Speaker 3: of thing, so it makes it not funny for me. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and then you kind of are like, oh, like you
Speaker 3: reanalyze their jokes and you're like, oh, this is like
Speaker 3: hack and can be independent of that too, Like they
Speaker 3: could just not be funny on the front, but you're
Speaker 3: not fooled by it or whatever. But that's how I
Speaker 3: feel about that too. I'm like, why are we like
Speaker 3: all of this is tied together, Like you can't separate
Speaker 3: the app from the artists or whatever, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean, Like, you can't separate these things because it
Speaker 3: does affect everything, and it does affect my perception of
Speaker 3: things too.
Speaker 1: I think I've done it in the past, like I've
Speaker 1: given something like a five stars just to get them
Speaker 1: to leave me alone. And like I think I assume
Speaker 1: that if I give it one star, they're going to
Speaker 1: keep bothering me and be like, what's up, man?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Why b Yeah, dude, what's a problem.
Speaker 1: Which similar to the difficulty of like critiquing a male
Speaker 1: comedian and yeah, it's just going to be a g
Speaker 1: are you gay?
Speaker 3: Dude?
Speaker 1: Yeah? The pushback is going to be incredibly exhausting. And uh,
Speaker 1: the Internet is now a place where you know fascist
Speaker 1: ideals and you know bullies reigned supreme.
Speaker 3: So do you want to know something crazy? Like I
Speaker 3: fully did not mean to shift into this, but it's
Speaker 3: a perfect transition to something crazy that happened to me yesterday.
Speaker 3: I'm in an Instagram fight with Elysa Shlessing Are you really?
Speaker 3: Because she posted something like super racist against the Palestinian prisoners.
Speaker 3: She was like, when will the world see that they're
Speaker 3: all terrorists and we're exchanging like innocent people for terrorism,
Speaker 3: like they're children, And so I posted on her Instagram
Speaker 3: because this has bothered me for a while. I was like,
Speaker 3: the last time I saw you live, you were talking
Speaker 3: about homeless people. Her words were an inconvenience to her day,
Speaker 3: and I was like, also, this post is racist. Daff like,
Speaker 3: what hope this helps? And then she wrote this whole
Speaker 3: thing and then she she said something racist towards me.
Speaker 3: She was like, you were people actually murdered innocent Muslims
Speaker 3: because she like my page, she like and she referenced
Speaker 3: my comedy career as though she was trying to like
Speaker 3: scare me.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Like it was just it was so like spinning out,
Speaker 3: crashing out, and I was like I spent the day
Speaker 3: like rescuing a dog and going to a kid's birthday
Speaker 3: party and getting dessert handmade by my boyfriend and he
Speaker 3: brought me flowers, Like like she's sitting there replying to
Speaker 3: all of these comments on this way hell post and
Speaker 3: I responded to it like one time, but she wouldn't
Speaker 3: let me tag her. But like it's crazy that comedians
Speaker 3: in that position can just be like racist as hell,
Speaker 3: And like there's no like Amy Schumer is thriving right now,
Speaker 3: you know, Like.
Speaker 1: It's that seems to be the entire country at is
Speaker 1: just in a place of uh yeah, they're like everybody's
Speaker 1: on board.
Speaker 3: But like anytime any one of those I think about
Speaker 3: that person's life and I'm like I would a million Times,
Speaker 3: be like where I am in society and just like
Speaker 3: prefer to not be racist like that, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean, Like I would never want to switch positions
Speaker 3: with you, like you seem so miserable.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it's been a while since they've been able
Speaker 1: to like take the racism out for a public walk
Speaker 1: without any shame, you know, I mean, without getting at
Speaker 1: least like full pushback from every everybody. All right, Uh,
Speaker 1: that's wild. Yeah. Also the yeah, there's this quote in
Speaker 1: the New York Times is the Daily from Monday where
Speaker 1: they were just doing the update on the ceasefire and
Speaker 1: the hostage exchange that they referred to them as, you know,
Speaker 1: the Israeli hostages and then the Palestinian prisoners comma mostly
Speaker 1: women and minors. So yeah, yeah, it's an interesting difference
Speaker 1: in the words you use there. They're just being held
Speaker 1: captive and like swept up without any you know, due
Speaker 1: process or being even really accused of anything, but they're prisoners.
Speaker 3: I think the amount of like the benefit of the
Speaker 3: doubt people give to any state sanctioned activity or institutions
Speaker 3: is insane. Like they're always like, oh, think for yourself,
Speaker 3: conspiracy theories, woke mind virus. And it's like, I know
Speaker 3: so many people that are like, oh, they wouldn't do it,
Speaker 3: the Israel or the US wouldn't do these operations if
Speaker 3: they were bad. I'm like, yeah, Like, do you have
Speaker 3: any ethical compass of your own? Like, do you have
Speaker 3: like think critically about it? It's just insane. It's just
Speaker 3: insane how people are willing to handwave things because it's
Speaker 3: just easier for them to not think about it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's I don't know. And they are very good at propaganda.
Speaker 3: I will give them that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I actually give the United States government five stars
Speaker 1: in this operating. Leave me alone, thank you? Yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: do you have something you think is underrated?
Speaker 3: Well I was gonna do. I think I've done well, Okay,
Speaker 3: I'll do this. Speaking of apps, I think it's I
Speaker 3: think it's underrated. How we used to be able to
Speaker 3: like get tickets in email form just a PDF to
Speaker 3: our emails. Now I have to fucking download an app
Speaker 3: for into it dome and it takes my facial recognition features,
Speaker 3: Like what, why are why am I giving them my data?
Speaker 3: Like I just want to go see wrestling.
Speaker 1: And like and would you mind just giving me into
Speaker 1: a dome app a quick rating. I know. I hate.
Speaker 3: I hate that we have to download.
Speaker 1: App capturing of your facial features really easy and seamless,
Speaker 1: though you have to know it.
Speaker 3: I'm like, what happened, Let's bring masks back, because like
Speaker 3: this is I know some for some people that hasn't gone,
Speaker 3: but like for a lot of people it has. But
Speaker 3: I don't want people taking my like facial structure, Like
Speaker 3: I don't even want a plastic surgeon looking at that.
Speaker 3: I'm sensitive. Okay, yeah, I'm just a little little lady.
Speaker 3: But it's I'm so mad because like we went to
Speaker 3: a WNBA game and they're like forty minutes and like
Speaker 3: I had to read download like different like things to
Speaker 3: even just get into my ticket Master account, and like
Speaker 3: I sound so old and I don't care, Like I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't want to download another app for a thing
Speaker 3: that's very simple, like get the fuck off my phone.
Speaker 3: Get off my phone. Yeah, I don't care how much
Speaker 3: storage I have. Get out of here.
Speaker 1: It's getting so much worse. Like we have given these
Speaker 1: people who run and I know I'm going to get
Speaker 1: blowback for calling tech billionaires these people, but we've given
Speaker 1: them like so much power and they with it. They
Speaker 1: have just made the product the only thing that they
Speaker 1: have extensibly like given like created value for in exchange
Speaker 1: for their massive amounts of money, and just like made
Speaker 1: it so much worse for users, Like there's nobody little.
Speaker 3: Hamster wheels like go outside, plant a tree. You don't
Speaker 3: have to do tech all the time, you don't have
Speaker 3: to make another app.
Speaker 1: It does feel like there would be an amazing opportunity
Speaker 1: for anyone to come through and be like this generation's
Speaker 1: Ralph Nader, who's like I speak on behalf of the
Speaker 1: users and this all sucks shit, like everything you've been
Speaker 1: doing is bad. But I don't know, Like it just
Speaker 1: feels like there's no way for a person like that
Speaker 1: to get their message out other than the daily zeitgeist.
Speaker 1: Yeah anyways, Uh, that's that's bad that so many of
Speaker 1: these apps are so fucking bad. Underrated real quick, just
Speaker 1: a propos of almost nothing. I want to say, the
Speaker 1: Hollywood the Hollywood Sign. I think the Hollywood Sign is underrated.
Speaker 1: So I was just as researching places to see in Japan,
Speaker 1: and I was like checking out whether like one of
Speaker 1: the you know, you know that intersection where everybody like
Speaker 1: crosses in Tokyo and movies, it's like the establishing shot
Speaker 1: to be like you're in Tokyo. Yeah, yeah, And I
Speaker 1: was just like trying to get a sense of like
Speaker 1: is that worth saying or not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I've heard. I've heard that one's really cool.
Speaker 1: But like the that's kind of how I think about
Speaker 1: these things, like the establishing shot thing that a movie
Speaker 1: will use to be like, this is where you are,
Speaker 1: is it worth seeing? And like sometimes it is so
Speaker 1: the Miami sign that they always show as an establishing
Speaker 1: shot in movies to say, it's usually like a jet
Speaker 1: landing and then a sign that says welcome to Miami
Speaker 1: that doesn't exist. It was invented for establishing shots, Like
Speaker 1: that sign doesn't actually exist.
Speaker 3: I always hear it in Will Smith voice, welcome to my.
Speaker 1: Welcome to Miami. Yeah, the Will Smith sign.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But the Hollywood sign I've always thought, I think before
Speaker 1: I moved here, I was like, oh, that's probably just
Speaker 1: like a zero thing, and like it. You sometimes do
Speaker 1: see influencers taking pictures like in the middle of the
Speaker 1: street with the Hollywood sign in the background, like ten
Speaker 1: miles away, and it's like Yeah, that sounds like that's
Speaker 1: stupid to you know. Just like get a picture from
Speaker 1: like way far away of the Hollywood Sign. It's like
Speaker 1: taking a picture of the moon. You know, it's gonna
Speaker 1: look like shit, it's gonna be tiny. But you can
Speaker 1: like hike up near the Hollywood Sign. There's like there's
Speaker 1: a huge reservoir right by the sign. There's so many
Speaker 1: cool hiking paths up there, and it's just like it's giant.
Speaker 1: The hikes are nice. It's an awesome like area of
Speaker 1: town where like nature meets these big Hollywood movie star
Speaker 1: asshole mansions and it's I don't know. And you know,
Speaker 1: I thought we had lost it when that extremely believable
Speaker 1: AI image started making the rounds with it.
Speaker 3: And I don't blame them because it's so confusing what's
Speaker 3: real and what's not right now, But yeah, we did
Speaker 3: not lose the Hollywood Sign.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I guess it just hit me that it's
Speaker 1: kind of a cool sign, kind of a cool landmark
Speaker 1: for a city that doesn't we don't have a lot
Speaker 1: of good land Like the Hollywood Boulevard with like the
Speaker 1: stars on the sidewalk not great. The Walk of Fame
Speaker 1: is not great. But the Hollywood Sign has its angles
Speaker 1: that it's worth say.
Speaker 3: Two things about the Hollywood Sign. Yes, that's all very true.
Speaker 3: And I also think it's okay for like tourists and
Speaker 3: influencers to get excited about these things, because that's like
Speaker 3: totally what makes this you know what I mean? Like
Speaker 3: I think I think it's fine, and we need to
Speaker 3: find more joy and stuff like that, and if it's
Speaker 3: something that's so prominent, like the Minion brings people so
Speaker 3: much joy for the universal peeking over, we have the
Speaker 3: Hollywood side and the Minion and that's la and I
Speaker 3: love it. And then also fun fact, my undergrad pranked
Speaker 3: the Holly I think it was was it the Hollywood
Speaker 3: Sign and made it spell out like hold on, I need.
Speaker 1: To look weird.
Speaker 3: No, it spelled out like our cal Tech name and
Speaker 3: it was in they like changed it to make it
Speaker 3: say cal Tech and there's a picture of it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so they added.
Speaker 1: Like impressive prank.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, like it's a bunch of engineers who were
Speaker 3: like where do I put all my sexual tension? But yeah,
Speaker 3: they changed it cal Tech. They like blacked out the
Speaker 3: H and the D and changed the middle to say
Speaker 3: cal Tech. And I thought that was pretty fun and cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because cal Tech and Hollywood are not very close
Speaker 1: to one, like those words, There's there's a lot of
Speaker 1: work to be done there.
Speaker 3: There is a lot of work that's pretty cool. You
Speaker 3: do fun pranks, you could You could be in a
Speaker 3: romantic movie and be taken up there and get to
Speaker 3: sit on the Hollywood Sign.
Speaker 1: All those engineers, by the way, are still in prison
Speaker 1: for that prank. They will never get out January six ers.
Speaker 1: On the other hand, all right, let's take a quick break.
Speaker 1: We'll come back and we'll talk about all the crazy
Speaker 1: shit that's happening in the news. We'll be right back,
Speaker 1: and we're back, and so over the long weekend, a
Speaker 1: lot of events, a lot of news stories that could
Speaker 1: broadly be interpreted as both Donald Trump winning and America
Speaker 1: just doing a full like he'll turn like not not
Speaker 1: that America hasn't been like bad for a long long time,
Speaker 1: but like America has also always wanted so desperately to
Speaker 1: be good. We would like delude ourselves into believing we
Speaker 1: were the good guys. And it just feels like that
Speaker 1: shit is over.
Speaker 3: As a non black person, I would like to just
Speaker 3: assert myself here and say, Martin Luther King Junior would
Speaker 3: not have approved of the events of this weekend.
Speaker 1: That's such a good point, because I think a lot
Speaker 1: of people were wondering. But yeah, I don't know. Donald
Speaker 1: Trump has won everyone from tech billionaires to like Mike Tyson.
Speaker 1: We're at the inaugural ball this is above round.
Speaker 3: Snoop Dogg and Nelly performing there and stuff.
Speaker 1: I don't don't know. I couldn't even keep track of
Speaker 1: all the disappointing details of the inaugurat.
Speaker 3: Eybody's fine with it now, They're all just fine. I
Speaker 3: feel like I'm living in crazy Land all over again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this feels so much further gone, Like America seems
Speaker 1: so much further gone.
Speaker 3: We're cooked.
Speaker 1: We are so cooked, like irrevocably cooked, like can't unpickle
Speaker 1: the cucumber, cook Like this is this is a bad
Speaker 1: place that we seem to be. Like embracing some things
Speaker 1: that happened over the weekend that I just wanted to
Speaker 1: because they're like the fact that Donald Trump introduced like
Speaker 1: a meme coin over the weekend and is now fifty
Speaker 1: eight billion dollars richer because of it. Like he didn't
Speaker 1: just he didn't do anything. He just like made it
Speaker 1: clear that he's going to be corrupt and then partook
Speaker 1: in some corruption that allowed people to just be like,
Speaker 1: we'll put our money into that so that he does
Speaker 1: things for us.
Speaker 3: I still feel bad. I don't know Donald Trump, No,
Speaker 3: not for him at all, but for like the people
Speaker 3: who buy these coins, and like, I know they're so
Speaker 3: there's so many people that are so dumb and so
Speaker 3: enthusiastic and so racist and so whatever. But I'm also
Speaker 3: like he's still grifting off of Americans, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean, Like I'm still like, oh god, so sweety
Speaker 3: oh sweaty.
Speaker 1: No, yeah, I don't know who the money is primarily
Speaker 1: coming from. If it's the same people who like typically buy,
Speaker 1: you know, in library commemorative plates, who are like putting
Speaker 1: their money into this, I can't imagine there's fifty eight
Speaker 1: billion dollars worth of that money, So I think it's
Speaker 1: all It also has.
Speaker 3: To be Princess Diana plate superiority, Okay.
Speaker 1: Right, the best plates. That's where most of my savings
Speaker 1: are are in Princess Diana plates.
Speaker 3: Hell. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Similarly, like this all feels like it's all part of
Speaker 1: the same story, which is that Donald Trump is taking power,
Speaker 1: has announced that he's going to be enormously corrupt, and
Speaker 1: rather than anyone pumping the brakes on that in any
Speaker 1: effective way, everyone is just clearing the decks for that
Speaker 1: corruption or getting involved with it.
Speaker 3: Yeah. They just want to be on the side of capital.
Speaker 1: It's crazy on the way just America loves a winner
Speaker 1: so much that we just like have a heart time
Speaker 1: dealing with something like this. Like I feel like Americans
Speaker 1: are going to have a hard time not getting pulled
Speaker 1: into this shit unfortunately.
Speaker 3: I mean they already have. That's why I like he won, Yeah,
Speaker 3: and that's why everybody was cool with it, and people
Speaker 3: even at shows honestly, Like sometimes I'll try to read
Speaker 3: the crowd and be like, how did you feel about
Speaker 3: the election, and like it is so like people are
Speaker 3: so much more proud to say, like they're happy that
Speaker 3: he won now than they were in twenty sixteen. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: in La in La.
Speaker 1: Right. That's the thing. It just seems to be very
Speaker 1: little shame about it at this point. Like I think
Speaker 1: people are more likely to feel shame about like being
Speaker 1: for social justice at this point than the.
Speaker 3: Woke mind virus.
Speaker 1: Yeah to being sick with the woke mind virus called.
Speaker 3: In sick to work because I have the woke mind virus.
Speaker 1: That is true. I wonder that would be a cool thing.
Speaker 1: A cool consequence is if he like gets that recognized
Speaker 1: because he did pull out of the World Health Organization.
Speaker 1: So America may soon be out on their own island
Speaker 1: of like what is recognized as healthy or like actual pathologies.
Speaker 1: Maybe we can start getting off work for having the
Speaker 1: woke mind virus.
Speaker 3: I am. I'm an overseas citizen of India and I'm
Speaker 3: ready to become a non overseas citizen. I'm ready to
Speaker 3: go back to where I came from.
Speaker 4: You guys, So yeah, it's I know, I feel like
Speaker 4: everybody who has dual citizenship is you know, a lot
Speaker 4: a lot of people who don't are feeling pretty.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't leave. Yes, we have mutual aid to do.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So TikTok did a publicity stunt the like I
Speaker 1: feel like, I don't know, it seems like it was
Speaker 1: a publicity stunt. They like, heading into it, they were like,
Speaker 1: maybe Donald Trump can save us. Then they went dark
Speaker 1: for fourteen hours and then came back with like a
Speaker 1: pop up that essentially said thanks to dear leader Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: we have a second chance at life again. Like he
Speaker 1: didn't do anything other than make it clear that he
Speaker 1: is corrupt, and you know that's all he needs to do.
Speaker 1: He's corrupt, and like the system is going to be
Speaker 1: like he's going to be able to do whatever the
Speaker 1: fuck he wants. And so all of these self interested
Speaker 1: actors are just like, okay, like how do we get
Speaker 1: on board with this? It's it's just amazing how quickly
Speaker 1: everything has crumbled.
Speaker 3: Like if you're willing to say you love him unconditionally
Speaker 3: and will do his bidding, you will profit in some capacity.
Speaker 3: The first time around, a lot of those people went
Speaker 3: to jail but got book deals or whatever or like,
Speaker 3: you know, we're kicked maybe not went to jail, but
Speaker 3: we're kicked out pretty quickly, but got book deals or
Speaker 3: longevity in their pseudo careers that they never would have
Speaker 3: without him. But now this time around, people are going
Speaker 3: to monetarily benefit in a real way and they're all in.
Speaker 3: They're just all in on it. And if he if
Speaker 3: they're committed to him, then it's fine. And that includes
Speaker 3: companies like Dick Doc.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, And so there's like the self interested aspect
Speaker 1: of like people at that level, Like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it feels like there's a lot of things that used
Speaker 1: to be like taking people took relatively seriously, like the
Speaker 1: idea that like corporate goodwill was an okay thing to
Speaker 1: rely on, or that like voting for the lesser of
Speaker 1: two evils was an okay strategy, or that it was
Speaker 1: okay for like the media to you know, adopt that strategy,
Speaker 1: and like, uh, it's just like all these things are
Speaker 1: just crumbling, Like it's making like he right away his
Speaker 1: second administration is just like, yeah, none of those things
Speaker 1: actually are protecting anything, and I am I am God Emperor.
Speaker 1: Like in his inaugeration speech, he was like that God
Speaker 1: saved me from the assassin's bullet and that yeah, God.
Speaker 3: That was the worst thing that could have happened for
Speaker 3: the campaign at that point. Looking back, he just gained
Speaker 3: like momentum from that.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's you know, he's in power. Corruption favors
Speaker 1: those in power. Everyone in America is like bad winner
Speaker 1: takes all systems is going to be tripping over each
Speaker 1: other to praise him and give him the things he
Speaker 1: wants because that will give them the things they want.
Speaker 3: I do want to say that now is now, more
Speaker 3: than ever, is the time to bully people. And I
Speaker 3: think it's fine anything that you listen, you're a leftist, okay,
Speaker 3: the people that I'm talking to, You care about people.
Speaker 3: You want to say the right things. You don't want
Speaker 3: to use terms and slurs and bad things. Now direct
Speaker 3: any animosity you have in you towards people who think
Speaker 3: it's okay to do those things and bully them. I
Speaker 3: think that's fine. I think it's fine to bully people
Speaker 3: so that they know that we don't agree with them.
Speaker 3: And I think that's our obligation now is to make
Speaker 3: people get roasted.
Speaker 1: Get roast, get roasted. Asshole is like a good a
Speaker 1: good action movie.
Speaker 3: I saw a tweet that was like I wish I
Speaker 3: knew who they were, Like this made me laugh NonStop.
Speaker 3: It was a cyber truck in New York and somebody
Speaker 3: had written very clearly and sharp you on a piece
Speaker 3: of paper and stuck it under their wind chilled dork.
Speaker 3: And I'm like, just do shit like that ruin their day?
Speaker 3: You know?
Speaker 1: H yeah, that is the correct label to.
Speaker 3: That fucking nerd in a bad way.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know, like the TikTok canceling themselves
Speaker 1: and then claiming Donald Trump save them, Like, yes, we
Speaker 1: should be making fun of TikTok for being fucking losers
Speaker 1: and throating the boot in a way that is both
Speaker 1: pathetic and also guaranteed to fail them, since anybody who
Speaker 1: gives Trump that much power over them always gets fucked over.
Speaker 1: But you know, they're they're going all in on this
Speaker 1: strategy that everybody else seems to be adopting, despite years
Speaker 1: and years of evidence that everybody who pays fealty to
Speaker 1: Trump ultimately ends up getting sucked over. But I also
Speaker 1: so like one of the reactions to this, which I
Speaker 1: like at the time, I was like, this is funny.
Speaker 1: Like people started saying, like started a meme that say,
Speaker 1: Kendrick Lamar saved TikTok instead of Donald Trump.
Speaker 3: That's so fun Yeah, It's like how people were like
Speaker 3: JK Rowling didn't write Harry Potter or somebody else did, right?
Speaker 1: Did you see the thing where she like did She
Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna show everybody, like all these people
Speaker 1: who politically attacked me that I'm actually a superior writer
Speaker 1: and then like wrote it under a pen name and
Speaker 1: the book that she wrote, like nobody even noticed it. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: everyone was just like, I mean that was a while ago,
Speaker 1: but somebody did a threat about that over the weekend
Speaker 1: that I quite enjoyed. But I don't know, I just
Speaker 1: feel like we need to accept like the Kendrick Lamar
Speaker 1: thing is also feels like Americans like being unwilling to
Speaker 1: admit we're fucking loose, that we lost, that we're losers that, Like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, like I feel like people still want
Speaker 1: to believe that we live in a country where you
Speaker 1: can like be right and win, and like we don't.
Speaker 1: I don't know if the Kendrick Lamar things like the
Speaker 1: most clear evidence of that, but it just it feels
Speaker 1: like that's that's a thing we're going to be dealing with,
Speaker 1: is everybody in America wanting to be on the winning side.
Speaker 1: And in that case, it's just like we're we're making
Speaker 1: something up so that we don't have to admit what's
Speaker 1: actually going on. In this case, the fantasy where Kendrick
Speaker 1: Lamar saved it instead of TikTok claiming that Donald Trump did, I.
Speaker 3: Think we're all like that's also trolling. Like I do
Speaker 3: think that people want to take the wind out of
Speaker 3: his sales or whatever. But I also think we have
Speaker 3: like such an identity crisis because we are a country
Speaker 3: of like individualism, the American dream winning, but simultaneously we
Speaker 3: like root for the underdog. We enjoy like aesthetics of
Speaker 3: the working class without actually backing any of their policies.
Speaker 3: So we have such a contradictory view of ourselves and
Speaker 3: what we want or even the right does, you know.
Speaker 3: And so I think it's like really hard to have
Speaker 3: a clear voice and a clear path on like what
Speaker 3: winning even means when you don't know who you are.
Speaker 3: Like we're so confused because we're like like fuck the British,
Speaker 3: but we want to look like them, you know, Like
Speaker 3: we're like fuck, fuck all of these people. We started
Speaker 3: this country on our own and we threw the tea
Speaker 3: in and whatever, but also we want to be like you.
Speaker 3: And I think a lot of the colonial aftermath is that,
Speaker 3: like that's how like a lot of Indian people are,
Speaker 3: is like there they are very like striving to be
Speaker 3: like white adjacent or what ever in aesthetic despite like
Speaker 3: the harms that colonization have like done to us, you know.
Speaker 3: So it's like kind of like Stockholm syndrome if that
Speaker 3: were real. But but for like the things that never
Speaker 3: served you in the first place that you rebelled against.
Speaker 3: We all have daddy issues, is what I'm saying. We
Speaker 3: don't know what we're doing.
Speaker 1: It seems like we're it's a mess out here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, let's uh, let's take a quick break. We'll
Speaker 1: come back. We'll keep talking about the inauguration and uh
Speaker 1: and other uh horrible things. We'll be right back. That's
Speaker 1: and that's called a tease, folks. And we're back and okay.
Speaker 1: So Trump's inauguration, first day in office, uh, he started
Speaker 1: doing like signing executive orders in like in a way
Speaker 1: it seems like it was like designed to be a
Speaker 1: sporting event. At the end of signing some of them,
Speaker 1: he like threw the markers out into the crowd, like
Speaker 1: it was like a pair of batting gloves after somebody
Speaker 1: hit a home run and everybody like went went wild
Speaker 1: for it. So bad feels feels very dictatory. He like
Speaker 1: I said, he mentioned his speech that God saved his
Speaker 1: life from the assassin's bullet. So this entire administration is
Speaker 1: mandated by God. And with that mandate, the entire tone
Speaker 1: just seems to be like I was right, and you're
Speaker 1: all like need to admit it. And so he's like
Speaker 1: pulling the US out of the World Health Organization UK.
Speaker 3: But do executive orders really work? If I can't read,
Speaker 3: maybe they're not real at all.
Speaker 1: Who knows that's right? There's actually no way to tell.
Speaker 1: There's no way to know because it's being reported by
Speaker 1: a lot of people who make you read to check
Speaker 1: out their reporting. So boo, I think we're I think
Speaker 1: we're okay to disregard most of this. Talked about ending
Speaker 1: the weaponization of government, like and while like it was
Speaker 1: a weird statement, that's basically like the Department of Justice
Speaker 1: and FBI are like going to be full time investigating
Speaker 1: people in the Biden White House. So like Biden on
Speaker 1: his way out preemptively like pardoned everyone he can think of,
Speaker 1: like Trump going after including his brothers and yeah, just
Speaker 1: like his whole family. Liz Cheney of course, because the
Speaker 1: Democrats ore her huge debt and uh but not Jack
Speaker 1: Smith though, which sucks for Jack Smith. Not you, my man. Uh,
Speaker 1: you're gonna you're gonna take this one for the team.
Speaker 1: He Trump pulled America out of the Climate accord and
Speaker 1: he pardoned basically every January sixth person. I think it's
Speaker 1: worth noting like prior to this, it's been it's pulled
Speaker 1: as very unpopular to just be like these people are
Speaker 1: all getting out. It just feels like such on corruption.
Speaker 3: Overturning Roe v. Wade. They don't give a fuck.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they just don't give a fuck. I also just
Speaker 1: feel like these people getting out, like I don't know
Speaker 1: that one feels like more to come in the worst
Speaker 1: most foreboding way possible, Like you know, these people are
Speaker 1: going to like be the brown shirts for whatever he's
Speaker 1: doing here.
Speaker 3: I literally mean this with my whole heart. Like I
Speaker 3: was joking about the like not breeding the executive orders,
Speaker 3: but if it goes against your ethics, it doesn't exist
Speaker 3: to me. Like I'm sorry, trans and non binary people exist,
Speaker 3: and I'm going to help them in any fucking way
Speaker 3: possible that I can. Like, if the law of the
Speaker 3: land is wrong, protect yourself and be safe, and you know,
Speaker 3: the people who can do it work on it more.
Speaker 3: But I'm just like, we can't pay attention to it.
Speaker 3: We cannot give into it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we definitely cannot give into it. There's also like
Speaker 1: an intriguing level he's working at now where he's doubling
Speaker 1: down on like eighteenth century expansionist rhetoric, like Napoleonic type shit,
Speaker 1: where like the US is going to take new territory
Speaker 1: including Greenland to Mars and of course renamed the Gulf
Speaker 1: of America the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America.
Speaker 3: So really fucking weird of him to support Napoleonic policies
Speaker 3: when Baron is so tall.
Speaker 1: That's right, Yeah, pretty fucked up, that's right, all right.
Speaker 1: On the other hand, like there's just been a lot
Speaker 1: of reporting in the past week about like what we're
Speaker 1: learning about the Biden administration and how they handled the
Speaker 1: siege of Gaza, So in many ways it's pretty straightforward.
Speaker 1: They just didn't actually care enough to stop Israel, Like
Speaker 1: they weren't willing to stop them. Israel knew it. And
Speaker 1: since one of the details that jumped out to me
Speaker 1: Biden in an exit interview last week emitted like that
Speaker 1: on the ninth day of the war, Netanya who said
Speaker 1: he wanted to do to Gaza what the US did
Speaker 1: to Hiroshima in World War two. So literally, like every
Speaker 1: time blinken or state official got up and said, well,
Speaker 1: we're looking into it, and uh, you know, Israel is
Speaker 1: investigating in good faith, like they knew that she was
Speaker 1: a lot Like I think we knew that time. But
Speaker 1: it's like that the ninth day, like after they started,
Speaker 1: you know, committing wark rhymes, they like they knew what
Speaker 1: their intent was fully, they they knew that Israel was
Speaker 1: bent on full scale destruction of Gaza from day one.
Speaker 3: It's so fucking evil. It is so evil. Like now
Speaker 3: that the ceasefires happened, people are posting videos of like
Speaker 3: all of the martyrs of Gaza and like the people
Speaker 3: that the stories that reached us that we and like
Speaker 3: there's so many that I remember and those people are
Speaker 3: gone and it's because of these fucking assholes. Yeah, so evil.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like you another detail from behind the scenes, Like
Speaker 1: you need to go through tons of red tape to
Speaker 1: use the word condemn around like Israeli settlers demolishing Palestinian
Speaker 1: homes in the West Bank. Like they they're officials who
Speaker 1: are like trying to trying to just say that the
Speaker 1: US condemns that, like and it took them like weeks
Speaker 1: and like they're they're doing it like because it's a
Speaker 1: horrible war crime, but also like from a self interested perspective,
Speaker 1: being like this is a terrible look, like all the
Speaker 1: stuff that people were saying during the election, like this
Speaker 1: is going to be bad for you, and just getting
Speaker 1: ignored or told it's too late to change a decision. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's so.
Speaker 3: Bad at their jobs. In addition to being bad people,
Speaker 3: they're just at their jobs. Also a side note, even
Speaker 3: though the ceasefires happened and I'm still concerned, but I
Speaker 3: want Gazans to be happy, the West Bank is still
Speaker 3: getting violated, so keep that in mind.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the West Bank is seems like it's the next
Speaker 1: phase of the plan for Israel Is to like try
Speaker 1: and take that over.
Speaker 3: And they don't allow concrete into Gaza, so like how
Speaker 3: are they going to rebuild? Yeah, like that's insane.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's just the Democratic Party. It's very frustrating
Speaker 1: because they were so incompetent and passive and weak and
Speaker 1: also just evil. You know. It's not just like that
Speaker 1: they were insufficiently good at getting Israel to stop like
Speaker 1: they were on board with this vision. Yeah, and so
Speaker 1: now it makes Trump look like he's a genius because
Speaker 1: he's just says actually, I don't want this because it's
Speaker 1: a bad look for me and is able to like
Speaker 1: make more progress than Biden was.
Speaker 3: But also he was also so helping set up the
Speaker 3: conditions that led to October seventh, like through everything he
Speaker 3: did while he was president, Like he's they're all just
Speaker 3: playing a game. That's why they sat together, That's why
Speaker 3: it was. If they really thought he was a fascist,
Speaker 3: would they be like glad handing him? Would him and
Speaker 3: Obama be chatting it up? You know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Like I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when your two options are people who fund an
Speaker 1: arm a genocide and person who like made it possible
Speaker 1: in the first place, but then like temporarily stops it
Speaker 1: because it's a good pr look for them, it might
Speaker 1: be time to like take a step back from like
Speaker 1: strategic thinking about how we win the next election and
Speaker 1: have the like maybe we're the bad guys conversation are
Speaker 1: Web sketch.
Speaker 3: I love that sketch so much. I reference it all
Speaker 3: the time, and it is more relevant now than ever.
Speaker 1: Like the good guys who people were rooting for in
Speaker 1: the last election, that we were rooting for in the
Speaker 1: last election, these they were the ones who heard Nanya,
Speaker 1: who say he wanted to, you know, do a hiroshima
Speaker 1: in Gaza, and we're just like, all right, like, how
Speaker 1: do we get people off our back while he does that?
Speaker 1: So I don't know. Yeah, you can't watch like children
Speaker 1: reacting to news of the ceasefire and celebrating without feeling
Speaker 1: like a swelling. But I don't know. Yeah, even if
Speaker 1: we want to temper our hope with like knowledge of
Speaker 1: how America always let Israel do whatever it wants, I
Speaker 1: don't know. If it gets people some hope, they certainly
Speaker 1: fucking deserve it at this point. Yeah, yeah, all right.
Speaker 1: And finally, there is a historic blizzard warning happening in
Speaker 1: like Texas and Louisiana right now, which is abnormal here
Speaker 1: that Ted.
Speaker 3: Cruz, you might want to buy your tickets out.
Speaker 1: Now get to Kang Kun's stat my man. But this
Speaker 1: is yet another sort of we've talked about the disruption
Speaker 1: of patterns that have held for like hundreds of years
Speaker 1: in the global you know, weather systems that are now
Speaker 1: being disrupted by globalism, by and feminism, mainly feminism, but.
Speaker 3: He's feminist, guy jobs. And now there's blizzards in the South.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, so a lot of the climate reporting on
Speaker 1: the LA fires is pointing to this like thing they're
Speaker 1: calling the whiplash effect that happens. Like so, first of all,
Speaker 1: climate scientists seem to be the people to be listening
Speaker 1: to in all cases, but especially when it comes to
Speaker 1: these like natural disasters that are harming us and you know,
Speaker 1: burning people's homes down. But like there's a climate scientist
Speaker 1: Daniel Swain of UCLA who wrote a blog post on
Speaker 1: January fourth, at the beginning of the week warning that
Speaker 1: a high end offshore wind fire event Manfold and Soco
Speaker 1: this week, and people like him have been writing about
Speaker 1: this kind of whiplash effect where the warmer weather makes
Speaker 1: it so that more and more precipitation is dumped on,
Speaker 1: like when there's a rainy season in the winter, like
Speaker 1: it gets really super rainy, and so there's tons of
Speaker 1: plants that grow. And then when it's dry, like it
Speaker 1: gets much drier, like super dry. And so that's what
Speaker 1: like this kind of whiplash thing where it's like the
Speaker 1: extremes are more extreme, is caused by climate and it
Speaker 1: is like what is causing these fire conditions? And I
Speaker 1: feel like we're seeing that now with this polar vortex
Speaker 1: going down to the south, which I in a way
Speaker 1: that like I didn't totally understand, but kind of doing
Speaker 1: research into it, I guess the explanation is that there's
Speaker 1: like a spinning polar vortex on the at the very
Speaker 1: top of the globe that keeps like all the Arctic
Speaker 1: air up there. But as it gets warmer, it like
Speaker 1: it's like a spinning figure skater who like if you
Speaker 1: like put your arms out, you slow down. Like as
Speaker 1: it slows down, it like starts letting cold air out
Speaker 1: further and further, and so like cold air starts shooting
Speaker 1: down to like Texas and like places that didn't used
Speaker 1: to have it. And again it's like, you know, a
Speaker 1: direct result that has been predicted by climate scientists. It's
Speaker 1: just nobody's really been listening. But anyways, now we're gonna
Speaker 1: like see more weird apocalyptic shit. But like also like
Speaker 1: fun in some cases, like the Atlanta getting snow was cute.
Speaker 3: It was I mean, what people were doing on social
Speaker 3: media was cute. Yeah, for sure. There was like somebody
Speaker 3: who took their dog for a walk and the dog
Speaker 3: just like climbed into their hoodie because they were like
Speaker 3: what the fuck is there? Or like people like trying,
Speaker 3: like seeing snow for the first time, which was really sweet,
Speaker 3: but also in general, this is not what's supposed to.
Speaker 1: Happen, right, it doesn't happen here. Yeah, put a dog
Speaker 1: crawling into a hoodie, Well we'll take it. We need
Speaker 1: we need some.
Speaker 3: This is our are on band TikTok. The dog crawling
Speaker 3: into the hoodie is what we're latching onto.
Speaker 1: That's right, all right, Paula Vigan, allam, what a pleasure
Speaker 1: having you as always? Where can people find you? Follow you?
Speaker 1: All that good stuff?
Speaker 3: Okay, listen up, folks, this is what I need. I
Speaker 3: am on two shows at Sketch Fest in San Francisco
Speaker 3: this weekend. If you live there, please buy tickets. If
Speaker 3: you don't live there, tell someone you know who lives

Speaker 3: an amazing lineup. We got a partner on Charla on there.
Speaker 3: I'm really excited, So please buy tickets so we can
Speaker 3: sell out. So the next year, we can have like
Speaker 3: bigger venues, more people, bigger things. You know. Yeah, we
Speaker 3: comedians only need tickets sold. That's what we need. We
Speaker 3: do the social media thing because we're mentally ill and
Speaker 3: we need tickets sold. That's there you go, So just
Speaker 3: buy tickets, make us, make us continue doing this despite
Speaker 3: not having insurance. Okay, just buy tickets. But thank you.
Speaker 1: There is like gang step up. Hope to see you
