I tried to keep never Change, 31 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: Keep into one of my more highbrow a k S. 32 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: I wrote that one specifically for the first day. We 33 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: have an award winning journalist here. Well, so, how did 34 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: you get into journalism? That's a good question. Um, I 35 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 1: needed a job the day after I graduated college and 36 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 1: I yeah, and I got a job at a magazine 37 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: that could only have existed in the year two thousand 38 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: in San Francisco. It was a print magazine about online shopping. 39 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 1: So what did you cover the trends in online shopping? Yeah, 40 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 1: like we online shopped and then wrote about it in 41 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: a print magazine. Will not surprise, you never actually saw 42 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: the light of days. Yeah, we made like three issues. 43 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: It was supposed to be um a companion to Better 44 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: Homes and Gardens, and Meredith Publishing smartly decided before they 45 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: sent this out that in fact, it was a terrible idea, 46 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: would never even hit the hit the shelves. But I 47 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: got a taste review like the earliest days of Amazon, 48 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 1: or like I bought them. You know, I was in 49 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: charge of a lot of like shopping for the home 50 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: kind of stuff. So it was a bunch of like 51 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,239 Speaker 1: I don't know, like mid century modern collectors that would 52 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: sell stuff online and I would like list you know, 53 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: like this random store in Nashville has a great online 54 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: web store. That makes okay, So like really like then 55 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: that makes sense in two thousand two because yeah, you'd 56 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: you'd imagine that those places didn't have like online like 57 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: e commerce capabilities. And you still that's sort of your 58 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: main beat is online shopping, right, still beat? Where um? 59 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: So do you think that kind of that early assignment 60 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: gave you a toe hold as like a good online shopper? 61 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: Are you good at that? Actually? Very good at online? 62 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:04,119 Speaker 1: That's a really good skill to have underrated skill? Yeah, yeah, um, yeah, 63 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: it did really set me up for a life of 64 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: great They find the deals right, never forget where you 65 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: come from. All Right, we're gonna get to know you 66 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going 67 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: to tell our listeners a couple of the things we're 68 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: talking about today, Like you could all predict this, but 69 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: of course we're going to start off talking about Guy 70 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: Fieri's hair, rest on the name. We're gonna talk about 71 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 1: the real world getting a reboot. We're gonna talk about 72 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: why politicians should, probably for their own sake, stop playing 73 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: Born in the USA as their campaign theme song. Just listen. 74 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: I mean, depending depends on what your campaign is, but 75 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:52,119 Speaker 1: the specific politicians who are playing it should probably hop 76 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: on genius and take a second look at that, uh, 77 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: those lyrics. We're gonna look at the increasingly complex relation 78 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: and ship between the president and his propaganda network. We're 79 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: going to talk about something that Amy is very knowledgeable about, 80 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 1: EPA Fuccory and climate changed in the Nile. And we'll 81 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: do a box office report because America is fucking with 82 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: John Wick hard. But first, Aimy, we like to ask 83 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: our guests, what's something from your search history that's revealing 84 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 1: about who you are. Um My most recent search was 85 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: a history of milkshaking milk shaking. Yeah, so Nigel Farage 86 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:38,239 Speaker 1: just had a milkshake thrown at him, just despite having 87 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: checked with all the local McDonald's and asked them not 88 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: to sell milkshakes, and that were put up were amazing. 89 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: They're like, due to recent events, were might be serving 90 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: milkshakes or ice cream today. It is so good. But 91 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, has there like has this always happened? 92 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: And it turns out no, this is a somewhat new thing. 93 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 1: It used to be eggs, eggs and pies before that, 94 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: rotten tomatoes correct, right, yeah, yeah, but I love it. 95 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: I feel like we need to throw more food politicians, yeah, 96 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: because they the shame of it. You can see how 97 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: demoralizing it is. It's one thing to be like you're 98 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,799 Speaker 1: so wrong because you're just a racist bigot, like, okay, 99 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to keep it moving in my goons wolf 100 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: swipe you away. But when you have your dumb ass 101 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: like pinstriped suit just covered in vanilla milkshake, yeah, there's 102 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: no way to make that look cool. Everyone's face looks ridiculous. 103 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: In their first hit, by food. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's 104 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: always a photograph where they have a moment of not 105 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: expecting it, right, because I guess the point normally is 106 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: like you'll shame them by making them aware of their transgressors. 107 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: That doesn't work right, But now it's like, Okay, I 108 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: guess I have to do it in the language you 109 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: understand where the shame on you and now, oh, now 110 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: you hear me, because they have no shame about the 111 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: actual belief about how they look. It all looks stupid. 112 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: You're come at them on the thing that you value, 113 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: which is truth and like ideas, but about that they 114 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: care about how their hair looks after like when the 115 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: cameras are on, yeah, in the lips. Yeah. I'm just 116 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: thinking about like great moments in shaming politicians, like when 117 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: somebody told Dick Cheney to go funk himself when he 118 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: was at that hurricane. That would have been better if 119 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: it was a go funk yourself with a milkshaking Oh yeah, yes, 120 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: that would be a great thing. Yeah yeah yeah, Or 121 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: just do like like leafblowers around these people, a leafblower 122 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: on Trump, like someone's not just showing up and doing 123 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: that every time.

Yeah, 128 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: I gotta like in plug in leaf blower and it's 129 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: awesome both for three year olds and thirty year olds 130 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: like oh yeah, k and yeah, you can just really 131 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: uh do some do some ship with that gusta win 132 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: to really damage your pretty You can just knock knock 133 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: bulls center pieces off the dining room table. Anyways, No, 134 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: I don't do it inside, Amy. What is something you 135 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: think is overrated? I think that the show Russian Dolls, 136 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: Russian Dolls, Russian Doll, Yeah, is overrated. I like I 137 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 1: watched it. I like Natasha Leone and the acting is 138 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: like entertaining, but the overall thing and then they end 139 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: up with like parallel universes quantum of physics. I was like, 140 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: what is this the secret for millennials? And that started 141 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: off really good and I was like, okay, you got me, 142 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 1: you got me, and then it kept going. I was like, 143 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: you know, I guess I keep watching. I know. I 144 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 1: felt like they were just like how do we end this? 145 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: I don't know what her Let's just do this. They're 146 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: going to pass each other in parallel dimensions. It's like 147 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: masquerade whatever. And you know, I was like, I feel 148 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: like this is something I would have come up with 149 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,599 Speaker 1: when I was like very high in when I like 150 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: in my dorm room at not. Yeah, I love parallel dimensions, 151 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 1: So I'm the wrong audience for this overrated? Did you 152 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: like the whole thing? Though? I didn't watch any So 153 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: what you like parallel dimensions? I do you like it? 154 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: What I'm telling you is it's very interesting because they 155 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: show you just this much and you're so very little 156 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: bit and you don't know what's going on. And then 157 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: as it zooms out, you're like huh, and you think 158 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: you get it, but then she just doesn't start adding 159 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: up a little bit right, and you start asking more 160 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 1: questions of the writing than you do like just accepting 161 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: what you're seeing. But and then it's like, oh, women 162 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:54,079 Speaker 1: can do bad physics too. Yeah. See, That's why I 163 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 1: think I like parallel dimensions because I'm good at understanding 164 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: just enough of a scientific concept to misunderstand it in 165 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: an interesting way. So I'm like, yo, that's really tight 166 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 1: and like what if there's like a hundred exactly, yeah, exactly, 167 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: what is something you think is underrated? Nicolas Surgeon, Prime 168 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: Minister of Scotland. Yes, she's awesome. She's my favorite like 169 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: lady politician by far. The Scots are relentless with their insults, 170 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: so like her entire career has consisted of like constantly 171 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: being called ugly in the press and she's just like whatever, 172 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 1: I'm ugly, deal with it and I'm here. Yeah, but 173 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: she's just she's great. She was like the first politician 174 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: to actually call out Trump in like an international way 175 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: where she's like, I'm not sitting down with that guy. 176 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 1: He's a clown. Oh yeah, that's right. And he wanted 177 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 1: to because he wanted to go. And also his mom 178 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: is from Scotland and he likes to be like I'm 179 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: Scottish and Scotland's no, you're not.

His 182 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: mom is also a Tim Burton movie character. Yeah, I 183 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: have seen pictures of her. She it's mind. Both of 184 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 1: them look like they would be at some dinner party 185 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: and like Edwards scissor Hands doated scene. Yeah, it's an 186 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 1: accommodation of an Edward scissor Hands like background character and 187 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 1: also like one of the hallucinations from The Bad Trip 188 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: in Fear and Loathing in Laws Vegas, Like, they really 189 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: are are a strange looking couple, but the cautionary tale 190 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 1: for people who want to embrace predatory capitalism. They look 191 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: like it's manifesting in the physical. Yeah, they have their 192 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: disintegrating from their soul from the Yeah. Yeah, but I mean, 193 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: there's no way that Donald Trump has a complicated or 194 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: weird relationship with his mom. She was loving and just 195 00:11:55,720 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: bathed tim and proper attention. It's such a daughter's boy, Yeah, exactly, 196 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: That's why he's so good to women. What is a myth? 197 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: What's something people think is true, you know, to be 198 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: false or vice versa. Uh. Well, I've been writing a 199 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: lot about the media's role in climate denial lately, and 200 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,959 Speaker 1: I think one thing people believe to be true is 201 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: that especially they're sort of heroes of journalism, like the 202 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: New York Times the Washington Post are kind of like, 203 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,839 Speaker 1: you know, have spotless reputations and could never possibly be 204 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,719 Speaker 1: influenced my corporate interests. But in fact, The New York 205 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: Times worked with Mobile and then Exxon and then Exon 206 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: Mobile to create the advertorial and the op ad, which 207 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: are like two forms of native advertising that show up 208 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,599 Speaker 1: in the paper. Um, and I mean, I don't know. 209 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: I feel like the media has actually been one of 210 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: the most effective tools of oil company propaganda, which I 211 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 1: don't think people know or or necessarily even think about 212 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: including people in the media. Actually, I feel like this 213 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,599 Speaker 1: is like a myth that is self perpetuating, because I 214 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: have a lot of friends who are reporters and have 215 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: gotten into these discussions online with people a lot too, 216 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 1: and they're like, but I've never been I work for 217 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: the New York Times, and I've never been influenced by 218 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: an oil company guy. And it's like, yeah, dude, I'm 219 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: not talking about like some guy in like a Tucks 220 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: and Tales and top hat with like us, you know, mustache, 221 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: showing up at your desk and being like spike that story. 222 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, it's give me a red pat No no, no, no, no, yeah. Yeah, 223 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,559 Speaker 1: but we know from various documents that you know, like 224 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: the guy who ran pr for Mobile Forever, for example, 225 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: would routinely pull advice from papers that we're running too 226 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 1: many stories that were critical of the industry, and then 227 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: those like advice would return, so you know, yeah, yeah. 228 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: So the way a journalist might experience it and not 229 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: realize it is they're at an editorial getting they pitch 230 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: a story and their editor or editor in chief would 231 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: have like gotten some feedback, and so they just like 232 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 1: subtly steer them in another direction. Yeah, they're like, we're 233 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: not as interested in that. We feel like we've covered 234 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: that and we've done that a lot. The animals affected 235 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: by the Arctic drilling, yeah, as what they did to 236 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: get there, Yeah, yeah, exactly. Like so I guess the 237 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 1: myth is that, you know, influence shows up in obvious ways, 238 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: and it really doesn't. That's why it's influential, you know. 239 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: But I mean those companies legitimately believed that there's no 240 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: such thing as climate change, right, So what the oil companies, Well, 241 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: they all have pages on their websites now that say 242 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: that they do. Now. Their thing is that, um, you know, 243 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: we don't really we still can't really tell how bad 244 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: it's going to be. Not true and that and that 245 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: it's not their responsibility they're really big on on being 246 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: like it's a global problem that requires a global solution. Um. 247 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: But you know, US oil companies are the number one 248 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: producer of fossil fuels and have been for a while, 249 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: so they're also the global supplier of that global problem. 250 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: Hearing global a lot in relation to you, So it 251 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: does sound like problem. But yeah, is that's true that 252 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: it's like a hundred companies that are responsible for like 253 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: some huge portion of the like seven I think it's UM. Yeah, 254 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: the Carbon Major's report which came out maybe I think 255 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: the first one was five or six years ago. There 256 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: was one guy, Richard Heati, who looked at UM all 257 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: of the sort of human emissions from the industrial age 258 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 1: to now and then looked at you know, certain industries 259 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: and certain companies and did this whole kind of inventory 260 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: and figured out that, yeah, d companies are responsible for 261 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: I think it's seventy of UM global greenhouse gas emissions, 262 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: which is then formed the basis of lots of different 263 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: lawsuits around that, which is why we don't use straws exactly. 264 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: So it's kind of on us and think about how 265 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 1: many straws us. That's a great myth, Actually is this 266 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: whole like individual responsibility thing. Like the oil companies are 267 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: constantly like, well, you guys wanted it, We're just supplying 268 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: a demand. But a most individuals I know are not 269 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: oil executives and did not like you know, put out 270 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: massive like spend massive amounts of money to influence how 271 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: people understand this issue or lobby you know, compressed to 272 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: get certain regulations. Like most people this idea that like, oh, 273 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: it's our fault for driving. It's like most people I 274 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: know would rather commute on public transit. It's just not 275 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: like they haven't been given that option, you know, even 276 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: if they wouldn't rather do it or like knowingly rather 277 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: do it, it's because there's a huge competitive disadvantage to 278 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: not being able to have the freedom to roam at 279 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: the same speed as somebody who has your same job. 280 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: Like yeah, totally yeah, this it's this like and I 281 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: mean I know lots of people who very much like 282 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 1: know that climate change is happening, know that humans are 283 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: involved whatever, and that will like kind of repeat this stuff. 284 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you see every earth day, it's like ten 285 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,679 Speaker 1: things you can do. Yeah, yeah, you mean pull up 286 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: to BP was fucking with the squad direct, Yeah, one 287 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: of the things I can do. What's funny because the 288 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: greenwashing stuff is so effective because if if you look 289 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: at a bp AD, you thought they were they were 290 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 1: in the solar business and likens in the algae business. Rightly, Yeah, 291 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 1: it's it's so effective too because I think it completely excused. Like, no, 292 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: do you remember the oil spill that happens that's the 293 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: same b P Yeah, but you know, yeah, yeah, exactly 294 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: beyond profits, I mean, yeah, it needs to be a 295 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 1: huge systematic systemic change, right, not a stopping using straws, 296 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: although whatever, I mean, that's fine, like do that stuff, sure, 297 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: but that's not that's not the biggest driver. That's not 298 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 1: going to break the wheel. Well on Also, fossil field 299 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 1: companies actually like they will continue to increase supply whether 300 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: there's demand for it or not. We have an oversupply 301 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, and and they like there's actually like 302 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: a lot of data that shows that that they're continued 303 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: push to drill more or you know, get more natural 304 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: gas from here to there or whatever is actually like 305 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: driving an increase in demand and not the other way around. 306 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: They act like somehow they created the only demand side 307 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: only economy. The game did not happen. Yeah. Alright, Well 308 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: let's get into something equally important as we discussed up top, 309 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: Guy Fieri's uh wait, hold on, you really respect the 310 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 1: ship out of that last name? What happened? Is it? 311 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 1: Because you watch so much and you hear him say 312 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: like that? No, I think it's yeah, guys like, hey, 313 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 1: it's Guy Fieri. I think I heard it on a 314 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: podcast maybe dough Boys to that way and so internalized 315 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: in that way. It's it's also better. I like the 316 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: way it feels to say it that way more than fiery. Yeah, well, 317 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: I have about the cultural sensitivity of a guy at 318 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 1: trying to understand your name. It's fiery, it's fiery. Yeah. 319 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 1: You know, he has a very famous look, um, and 320 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: I guess he's a nice guy, right, there's a lot 321 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 1: of stories that, Yeah, contrary to his outward look, he's 322 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: actually a very kind person. Let's pump the brakes. Yeah, 323 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: but there's you know a lot of people always like 324 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 1: what's up with his style? So his wife recently did 325 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 1: an interview with People magazine, very hard hitting journalism, um 326 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: and talking about like so she says this, when I 327 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: first met him, he had no goatee. He had dark hair, 328 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: he wore a suit to work every day. Now I 329 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: look at him and I'm like, where's that man I 330 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: married with the whole clean look? And she's gone, that 331 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: is like some ship that you say at a like 332 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: crisis point in your marriage. That's like you say that 333 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: in front of a marriage counselor and he like, and 334 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: you know, to be honest, I look at him and 335 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 1: I think, where's the man that I know. I don't 336 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: know what this clown is for me, this bizarre grotesque being. 337 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: So then we find out what the genesis was of 338 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 1: this whole look, and apparently it was an accident somewhat 339 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: because he had a hairdresser at the time. And this 340 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: guy says, he said, I was just kind of having 341 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: one of those moods one day and said just do 342 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: whatever you want. She goes, whatever I want. Whatever you want, 343 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 1: he recalls, I get done. I'm like, you're gonna wash 344 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: out that shampoo? She goes, no, that's your hair color. 345 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 1: I'm like, my what it was Friday night at like 346 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: six o'clock. I had to be at the restaurant. I'm 347 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 1: like no, She's like yeah. So I put a ball 348 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: cap on and I walked to the restaurant, and then 349 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: they kind of go on to say like his hair 350 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: was like changing with the seasons, like it used to 351 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: be seasonal like that it was like a mood. I 352 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 1: guess that he would put on his hair. Uh So 353 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 1: he said I would do a red blonde in the 354 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 1: summer for fun, that he'd cut it, and it was yeah, 355 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: he'd cut it and it was like really fun. That's 356 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: his his wife Flori speaking. And then and then the 357 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 1: wintertime he'd go back to dark. So it's like, you know, 358 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: he realizes that there's work, there's play um and you 359 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: know she says that she would never she but does 360 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,719 Speaker 1: not want him to change it. She says, I always 361 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: say when are you going to change your haircut? But 362 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 1: it's stuck and it's him. She adds, I tease him 363 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: every once in a while, and I do want a 364 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 1: little change sometimes, but that's like me changing my hair 365 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 1: to black. I mean, I'm not going to do that 366 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: for him. So yeah, I kind of like that. I 367 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: like that she can be like he looks like a clown, 368 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: but you know, it's his brand now, like that she's 369 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,239 Speaker 1: like that open about it that they seem like they 370 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: support each other as much as this guy is, uh, 371 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: you know, sort of a cultural clown. Every everything I 372 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 1: read about him makes me respect. Hi, he's the fucking 373 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: mayor of Flavor Town. That is fair. I don't forget. 374 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: Was it when wrestling like Texas Sabis or something? The 375 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: names are cool too. Yes, you know, I think he's 376 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: a magic He's like a he's like a Puckish figure 377 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: in the world of the culinary arts. Yeah, very like 378 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: if Shakespeare had written about America instead of Puck, he 379 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: would have created And then, speaking of Puck, the real 380 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: World has a re launch.

This time the jacuzzis in Vegas that 387 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: they're having sex in. So it seems like they're kind 388 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: of doing that but not really what's all happening.

In the US version, seven strangers come together 410 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 1: at a house in Atlanta. Every moment of their lives 411 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: just tape as people stop being polite and start getting 412 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: fake for the purpose of TV that looks real. Um, 413 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:29,479 Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't sure. I'm just curious what these 414 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 1: if like kids these days, you know, kids these days 415 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 1: give a funk about this stuff, because to me, it 416 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: was interesting in the nineties because it was the only 417 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: show in town for a little while and they and 418 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: the internet wasn't really that popping, so like I would 419 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: learn them like, oh, that's what people who like live 420 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: in Boston are when they're in a possibly cool house, 421 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: what social media is, and like the trends on social 422 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: media are today. That used to be MTV, Like MTV 423 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: was just where you went to see what young people, 424 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: well we're doing and gave a shit about Yeah, you 425 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: just pair it whatever you say. And now all of 426 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,360 Speaker 1: that has been replaced by social media. So it's interesting 427 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: that they're trying to take one of the brands off 428 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: of MTV and just put it straight onto social media, 429 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: because I feel like that has been the death of MTV, 430 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 1: is just that they didn't capture any of the like 431 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: influencer bullshit that people you know, there's an entire industry 432 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: of that on Instagram and Snapchat and ship and a 433 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: bunch of those got hacked recently too. There's like a 434 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: million influencer accounts whose personal data got leaked because there's 435 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: a company in Mumbai or something that like works with 436 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: influencers to do ads and their database like wasn't encrypted, 437 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 1: so people just like pulled up to their database and 438 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: it had like phone numbers, emails, like the projected value 439 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: of each brand, and on top of it like locations 440 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: for like the photos. It was bad, and they just 441 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 1: they just took it down. They're like, oh, we're gonna 442 00:25:56,560 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: look into that anyway. Alright, we're gonna take a quick break. 443 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back. And Joe Biden 444 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:20,199 Speaker 1: did something over the weekend that a lot of politicians 445 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: have done, which is play the song Born in the 446 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,959 Speaker 1: USA as a patriotic anthem at one of his rallies. 447 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,360 Speaker 1: I mean, who can forget man? I think there's only 448 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: a couple of words of that song. It's born in 449 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 1: the USA. So that's it, right, that's the only where's 450 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: this song? It says but in the USA over and 451 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: over for what five minutes? And that's it. Are there 452 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: lyrics to that song? I think they're actually might be 453 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: like an intro part America. I think I think the 454 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 1: intro part is just USA. Yeah. Oh wait, no, okay, sorry, 455 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: I'm reading here, uh writer Jam McNabb roach. Oh, I 456 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: guess there are lyrics. Alright, let me read him here. 457 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: Got in a little hometown, Jam. So they put a 458 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: rifle in my hand, sent me off to a foreign 459 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 1: land to go and kill the yellow Man from Watchman. 460 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: I think it started as an anti Vietnam. Well that's 461 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: hardly appropriate for somebody tried to become the US president. Yeah. Well, 462 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: I mean, okay, we'll stop being flippant about it, but 463 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: it's clearly so I'm gonna keep this going. How about this, 464 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: I had a brother at Casson fighting off the viet Cong. 465 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: They're still there. He's all gone. Yeah, having trouble deciphering this. 466 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 1: He's just about the fourth of July talking about being 467 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: in the ship, about born in the fourth of July. Seriously, 468 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: because the ship. This song was written because he was 469 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: interacting right with Vietnam veterans. Yeah, like what inspired him 470 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: to write this song? Yeah? Yeah, I mean, Bruce Springsteen 471 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: is the you know, the Shakespeare of the Blue Color class. Yeah, 472 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 1: and so he's, you know, he's writing about what what 473 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 1: people were going through in the eighties as they were, 474 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: you know, coping with the fallout from the Vietnam War 475 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: and you know, being a generation that was sent to 476 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: the Vietnam War and you know struggling with PTSD and 477 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: coming back to a country that was just wanted to 478 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 1: forget that that war ever happened. Unfortunately, we learned our 479 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: lesson from that generation. Nothing like that is ever. Yeah. Um, 480 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: but we just did it so we could sell Coca 481 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: Cola in Vietnam. Yeah. But Biden, I mean this seems 482 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: to be on brand. Like Biden does seem to be 483 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: trying to be the Ronald Reagan of Democrats. Yeah. I 484 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: feel like he's trying. Yeah, he's trying to give people 485 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: the like, why can't we just go back to the 486 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: way things Yeah, yeah, exactly, like when I didn't know 487 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: like how bad everything was, I think is really what 488 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: it is. It's because then other candidates like are we 489 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: ready to confront all this ship or we just want 490 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: to just want to right, He's like, hop on my 491 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: back and will work back into Yeah it was okay 492 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: to touch women, and yeah, make the occasional racist comming.

I didn't have to apologize 495 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: for ship. Do you think do you think he's a 496 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: psychic vampire? Do you know, like that idea of like 497 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: people who feed off the energy of other people. Do 498 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: you think that's what he's doing when he puts his 499 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: face someone who's just inhaling their soul? Oh yeah, those 500 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: children all immediately aged like twenty years. And you look 501 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: the non hair plug part of his scalp, that that 502 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: hair grows in the back real long, grows a rat 503 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: tail when he does it every time. If he was 504 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: not focused, grouped and tested and like managed by an 505 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 1: entire corporation's worth of people, there's almost no chance he 506 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't have a pony tail. I feel like that's very true. Yeah, 507 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: what what Joey Boy left to his own devices for 508 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: his dude dangle cross ear ring. He would be part 509 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 1: of some like Weekend Biker Gang. Definitely be a cover band. 510 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: What band though? I think it would probably be like 511 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 1: a Bruce Springsteen and what was his band's name street band? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, 512 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: Bruce Springsteen and the k Street Band. Right, Um, but yeah, 513 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: so I don't know this is going to continue to 514 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: be just a very interesting campaign to follow. But everyone 515 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: loves that song. Trump loves every Yeah, no, it's a 516 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: it's a great song. Uh it's not great for the 517 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: reasons that they think it's great, but you know, it's 518 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 1: the It works in a beer commercial, and so it 519 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: works for somebody who's trying to capture that part of Americana, 520 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: and that seems to be what what he's going for. 521 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: But this is kind of like the American mindset, right, 522 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: Like historical awareness and attention to detail nuances go out 523 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: the window when when we go into patriot mode. Yeah, 524 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: it's like, what man that I heard Iran is there 525 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: is a quote unquote increased threat that they can't really 526 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: specifically point to what it is. But I think I 527 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: hear that war drum solo in this distance and I'm 528 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: getting fucking pumped. Everything are the same as a rock man, 529 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: So so I gotta be a threat. Yeah, it's I 530 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 1: don't know. Ron has the whole nostalgia thing too. I 531 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: think it's like people of a certain age will be 532 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: like yeah, n Younger people are like, yeah, I have 533 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: lots of Persian friends exactly like this has nothing. I'm 534 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: like you can't just like, you know, drum up the 535 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: ghost of the up. And so I'm like, oh, yeah, man, 536 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: I get it because they're not even fucking like the 537 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: ship they're pointing to to try and create the outrage 538 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: for this conflict is so bullshit and like unconvincing. It's like, really, 539 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: we're I don't even know what what we're supposed to 540 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: get upset about here. Yeah, a Saudi oil ship, vague 541 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: Muslim stuff. I don't right, Yeah, And I think, yeah, 542 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: they're counting on maybe the baby boomers memory of the 543 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: Ayatollah plus the remnants of Islamophobia that are here from 544 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: nine eleven to be like is this enough. I'm sure 545 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: they were like which one, which one? Iran perfect, Yes, 546 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 1: It's like it's like but then, but thank god, the 547 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: actual military brass are like, oh, we got a lot 548 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: going on right now, and you don't want to do this. 549 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: This is We're not We're not ready and we don't 550 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: want that smoke. Anyways, if you listen to the mainstream media, 551 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is a shoe in. But just I like 552 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 1: to remind myself. At this point in the Republican primary, 553 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: Trump was a month away from even joining the race. 554 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: So we're still very very early in the game. Uh, 555 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 1: you know, there's plenty of time for Biden to fade. 556 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean I'm hoping for some really cool 557 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: gaffs on that debate stage. I'm hoping for somebody to 558 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: press him about some ship and trying out of Yeah. Yeah, 559 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 1: and just a little bit more trouble in Paradise. The 560 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: president and his beloved uh Fox News are are having troubles. Yeah, 561 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: they're having you know, so saying what happened to the 562 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 1: man I married? What happens? Because I look in your 563 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 1: eyes and I don't see him anymore? Uh? You know. 564 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: He had a rally in Pennsylvania. First off, I just 565 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 1: want to say that I think seven people fainted during 566 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 1: this rally. I mean, he's at that Beetles Beatlemania level. Yeah. Well, 567 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: when you put a bunch of like octogenarians in an 568 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: eighty degree plus fucking airplane, hangar, that was one of them. Trump, 569 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. Well, he was also complaining, he was like 570 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 1: what are these lights? Like? Yeah, He's like, who who 571 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: do this? Who are the stupid people who who thought 572 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: this was a good idea? It's like really odd. It 573 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: is like one of the most Trumpian things I've ever seen, 574 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: because he turned on the lighting people and like got 575 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 1: the crowd behind hating the lighting people. He's like, who 576 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: are these idiots doing the light for me? The people 577 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: doing the light I need so you can blow out 578 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: my wrinkles. But it's so lit um literally um, but yeah, 579 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 1: I guess seven people. It was like interrupting the speech 580 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: and stuff where like throughout like it was like in 581 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: fifteen minute increments, someone would go down and I was like, 582 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna need a doctor over here, and then twenty 583 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: minutes later we're gonna he actually credit hims like we'll 584 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: need that same doctor. I'm surprised he didn't go get 585 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 1: this guy out of here. It's like, yeah, knock the 586 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: hell out of him, loser, you could handle it. Also 587 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: very trumpying in that he blamed it on the lights, 588 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: which clearly was not the problem because he's the only 589 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: one getting the lights, So that just assumes that's what's 590 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: making it hot for everybody. Happening is happening to everyone. 591 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: But you know that didn't stop him from doing his 592 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: whole full on Trump dementia jazz solo like he normally 593 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 1: does when he goes off prompter um. So you know, 594 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: there were two main things I think that stuck out 595 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: for people throughout this rally. Like one was, you know, 596 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: he's afraid. I think he thinks Joe Biden will actually 597 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 1: beat him up in a street fight. Well, he's just 598 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: he was. He couldn't stop going on slightly cooler old guys. 599 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,439 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly who like doesn't care that his hair looks 600 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 1: like who knows whatever that is? But like silver fun Yeah, 601 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: but in the very beginnings of spinning silver, you don't 602 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 1: have the full thing yet. Um. You know, he kept 603 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,400 Speaker 1: saying like, oh, you know, he abandoned you. He abandoned 604 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: this state when he left Scranton. He was ten years 605 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: old when he left. It's not like he was this 606 00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: fucking sent you know what. I Like, I don't know 607 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: what he was trying to says, like and all the jobs, 608 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 1: what did he do for you? Like, and kept trying 609 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: to hit this point that like Joe Biden's a fucking 610 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 1: turn code on the state of Pennsylvania, Like okay, fine, um, 611 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: And then you know, did his usual ship like democrats 612 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: or trees and this and the FBI trees and this, 613 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: you know the usual things that come out during those solos. 614 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: Then he started talking about Fox and just very disappointed 615 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,800 Speaker 1: that they've been He's like, what's all these democrats on Fox? 616 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 1: And was like kind of doing it in a hurt way, 617 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: where like you're passive aggressive, you're not full through, and 618 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 1: that's not like saying Fox News is fucked up for 619 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: putting these people. And he goes, I don't get what's 620 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,439 Speaker 1: going on in Fox. We got I don't know what's 621 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 1: going on with these people there. I don't know. I guess, uh, 622 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,400 Speaker 1: that's I guess we'll have to see what's going on 623 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 1: with them. Like so hurt, it's not just like this 624 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: is unacceptable? What are you doing? What are you thinking? 625 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: And you know he because I think he realizes too, 626 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,760 Speaker 1: there is more and more you do start seeing takes 627 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: from Fox people who are very not Foxy, rather like yeah, 628 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 1: this like what he's doing is technically impeachable, or these 629 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: other things where they can't just fucking you know, told 630 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: the line like they used to. And I think that's 631 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 1: probably a very that would make me nervous if I 632 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 1: was Trump, because if Fox starts to show signs of 633 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 1: that relationship weakening, that could harm you a bit. But 634 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: it was clear because when he started saying, like, what's 635 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:23,319 Speaker 1: going on with them? People started booing? So were they 636 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: booing Fox or Trump? Yeah? Fox? Because he was like, 637 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 1: He's like, they want up, they want to take my 638 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: time putting Democrats on the Republicans. What's going on with that? 639 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 1: And a few people like yeah, boo boom, And I 640 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: think other people were quite putting it together. They're like 641 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 1: are we booing or wooing? Yeah? Were still watching Fox? Seven? Yeah, 642 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 1: It's like where do where do I go? If it's 643 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 1: not Fox? What sounds should I have on in the 644 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: background all the time? One American news one American news network. 645 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 1: You're gonna love it? Oh man, just the garbage that 646 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 1: a thing? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I think that's the one, right, Yeah. 647 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: And I mean Trump at one point was like talking 648 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:03,399 Speaker 1: about making his own news station right before the yeah, 649 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 1: which he had lost. We would be dealing with that 650 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: right now with a Trump competitor to Murdoch. Yeah, As 651 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 1: it is, he talks to Rupert Murdoch like daily, and 652 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,320 Speaker 1: so every everything he does, like he kind of tanked 653 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 1: Sinclair a little bit with some of the stuff that 654 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 1: he's blocked and let pass because talks to him every 655 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 1: fucking day. Yeah, he killed that Sinclair murger because Rubert 656 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: murder it would have hurt Rupert Murdoch. Um. Kind of 657 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 1: good for us on that. Yeah. Yeah, I'm glad Sinclair 658 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 1: didn't own up like every fucking local station. Yeah. Um, 659 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 1: let's talk about the e p A. Yeah, I mean 660 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: a lot's changed with this new new administration. It used 661 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: to protect us and now they're just trying to change 662 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 1: math obscure the fact that they are harming us. So 663 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: for those who don't know, including myself until I read 664 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 1: the article, like most people. Okay, so it seems like 665 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: since Trump took office, their whole sort of north star 666 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 1: has been just whatever Obama did, undo it. That's just 667 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: all we need to know. And then if you have 668 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: to prove that that's gonna do good for people, then 669 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: do whatever you have to do. And so case in 670 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:15,440 Speaker 1: point is this Clean Power Plan, which was one of Obama's, 671 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: like it was like one of his climate change measures, Like, Yo, 672 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 1: we got to check these coal plants, we need to 673 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 1: switch to renewables. We need to watch like particulate matter 674 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 1: in the air because it's affecting people's like it's causing 675 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 1: premature deaths. Um and so the Trump administration is trying 676 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 1: to do away with that, but to justify it, they 677 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 1: have to demonstrate that, Okay, whatever this new policy is 678 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: going to at least have some kind of perceived benefit 679 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 1: to the people. And the analysis before they were pointing 680 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: to about premature deaths, like with the current modeling they've 681 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 1: used to analyze what this new bill would do, and 682 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: they're like, we gotta make that look like it's gonna 683 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,879 Speaker 1: be good. So they are now switching or the word 684 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 1: is that they're switching to a completely different method of 685 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: calculating this that like goes against like decades of research 686 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,439 Speaker 1: and like it's unseen the kind of math they're using 687 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 1: to do this, and it's also not peer reviewed, right 688 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 1: exactly at all, And it's not like it's not a 689 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: new thing like with an administration to try and you know, 690 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 1: change the analysis a bit to like sort of fit 691 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: whatever their policy aim is, but it's usually not done 692 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: to this extent where you're like disregarding like like like 693 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: sort of widely accepted analytical models and the scientific consensus 694 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:26,399 Speaker 1: is only getting stronger and stronger. Yeah, I mean, well, 695 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:30,360 Speaker 1: this particular thing on particular matter, like not only is 696 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 1: the science that they're using. I'm using air quotes that 697 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:38,800 Speaker 1: people can't see. Yeah, Like not only is that not 698 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 1: peer reviewed or vetted in any way, but it actually 699 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 1: goes against all the science that is peer reviewed. So 700 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 1: what they're basically seeing is that like you know, actually 701 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: you don't need to account for the impacts on people 702 00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 1: of particular matter under the two point five or whatever. 703 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:05,440 Speaker 1: Yeah that like, oh, you know, as long as like 704 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 1: you're as long as you're looking out for like this 705 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 1: stuff over here, like this other stuff doesn't matter, which 706 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 1: is not how it works by people. Yeah. Yeah, And 707 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,239 Speaker 1: there's actually there's a guy who um lad the e 708 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: p A transition team for Trump and who were not 709 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 1: fat but a different a guy named Steve Malloy. He 710 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 1: runs a site called junk science dot com. He's like 711 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 1: a lifelong hack for the oil industry. Now he's working 712 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 1: for the coal industry, and he led the Trump transition 713 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 1: team for the e p A. And he's been giving 714 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 1: this presentation all around, like he he also led this 715 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: thing that was going on like an attack on the 716 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: EPA for a while that was like, which, first of all, 717 00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 1: you know, the guy in charge of transitioning the e 718 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,800 Speaker 1: p A like basically has been trying to not have 719 00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: the forever this entire career, or has been like how 720 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,879 Speaker 1: do we destroy the e p A? So like yeah, 721 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 1: and then yeah, he's been giving this presentation for like 722 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 1: at least a year um with this exact plan, like 723 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 1: if we can get them to sort of like you know, 724 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: if we can kind of push this this other alternative theory, 725 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,360 Speaker 1: then we can get them to roll this back because 726 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 1: of course, like PM two point five is the thing 727 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: that coal plants emit, so he it's like a lobbyist 728 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 1: for the coal industry basically that has like brought this 729 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: whole thing forward. Yeah. Yeah, it's just it sucks because 730 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 1: there are a lot of lifelong ep A people who 731 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: are trying to do their jobs still and are a 732 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 1: lot of them are actually like hanging in specifically to 733 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 1: combat this stuff. Female But yeah, it's it's funny because 734 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 1: it's like, on one hand, you have like economists at 735 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 1: the Treasury Department like leaving because they're tired of like 736 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 1: like this is fucking actual analysis with the fuck tiger. 737 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 1: Why are you punishing me because I'm telling you this 738 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 1: bullshit policy is going to harm people, And like those 739 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: people have thrown. I get it to like, if you're 740 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 1: really trying to make a difference and people are like 741 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 1: you're being vilified for it, that's a terrible environment. And 742 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:15,839 Speaker 1: so it's not to say that all those people who 743 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 1: left are cowards or anything, but it's I understand too, like, 744 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 1: especially for people at the e p A to like 745 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,360 Speaker 1: just hang, if I leave, then some guy with like 746 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: a T I A E three is just gonna hit 747 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 1: Matt random numbers like see equal zero equals death. Yeah. 748 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: Well yeah, So Malloy for a while had been pushing 749 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,360 Speaker 1: this idea. I can't remember the exact name of it, 750 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 1: but it's something like false science or whatever. At the 751 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 1: e p A where he was he was trying to 752 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:45,279 Speaker 1: say that the e p a s science on particulate 753 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,760 Speaker 1: matter is like totally on, you know, baseless and unfounded. 754 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 1: It's actually like the most solid science of like any regulation, um, 755 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,800 Speaker 1: And he was pushing for kind of like a level 756 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,800 Speaker 1: of scientifics ty that's basically impossible to hit. So he 757 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,240 Speaker 1: was like, if we can pass this thing, then basically 758 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 1: like there's no science DP could ever do that would 759 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: actually meet this criteria because that's not how science works. 760 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 1: That didn't work. So now he's pushing this like, let's 761 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: use this alternate model that's just as good, except it's 762 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 1: not be reviewed and like, and it's not been vetted 763 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:24,320 Speaker 1: by anyone, and it's all meant to bring coal powered 764 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:28,359 Speaker 1: plants back online exactly, which is on the whole point, 765 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: to go back in time fifty years. He promised the 766 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 1: coal industry that it was going to be like nineteen 767 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,919 Speaker 1: ninety again or ninth whatever Pete Cole was. But yeah, 768 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 1: I think that was the sort of point because even 769 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:43,319 Speaker 1: the bill that that the Trump administrations putting forward, it's 770 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 1: like only minimally makes certain coal plants more efficient. So 771 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,880 Speaker 1: it's not like it's groundbreaking by any means. It's just like, yeah, sorry, 772 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 1: Obama was like understood how bad coal powered energy generation was. 773 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna we'll come back and we'll just fudge the 774 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 1: numbers so it doesn't look like people might dive prematurely 775 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 1: from strokes or things like that. Have they thought about 776 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,799 Speaker 1: looking into whether the global warming is being caused by 777 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,320 Speaker 1: those lights at the Trump rally. Maybe that's totally a 778 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: theory they would pursue. Yeah, that could They all pinned 779 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 1: on one guy, right, this guy, he's been putting lights up. 780 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 1: Somehow we're close to some ship like that. It's like, 781 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 1: after an investigation on all these school shootings and the 782 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 1: opioid crisis and global warming, we found his singular ships. 783 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:38,839 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, pick his ass. Go all right, we're gonna 784 00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:51,120 Speaker 1: take a quick break. We'll be right back. And we're back, 785 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:54,800 Speaker 1: and it's time to check in with the box office. 786 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 1: We like to look at the box office to see 787 00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 1: what Americans are thinking about feeling, and right now America 788 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 1: is fucking with John Wick in a major way. John 789 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:11,359 Speaker 1: Wick three came out over the weekend, and so john 790 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:13,840 Speaker 1: Wick one was like a hit, but it was like 791 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 1: a surprise sleeper hit. People didn't see it coming. And 792 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 1: john Wick two came out and it doubled the box 793 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:25,640 Speaker 1: office of the first one. Doubled it, Yeah, doubled it. 794 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 1: John Wick two doubled the box office. I guess that 795 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:29,839 Speaker 1: makes sense because most people, I think, caught onto John 796 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 1: Wick after the fact. So john Wick three came out 797 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,919 Speaker 1: this past weekend and doubled john Wick two. So which 798 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:41,240 Speaker 1: so the this dude, Scott Mendelssohn, h Scott Mendelssohn writes 799 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 1: about the box office, and he said this is completely unprecedented. 800 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 1: The only times that it's happened in the past are 801 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 1: with Toy Story and Captain America. And he pointed out 802 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:57,839 Speaker 1: that Toy Story had a decade break between two and three, so, uh, 803 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:01,280 Speaker 1: you know you have inflation and more people, more people. 804 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:05,359 Speaker 1: Uh so. And then Captain America's third movie was Civil War, 805 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,960 Speaker 1: which was basically an Avengers movies. They were adding all 806 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 1: these new elements to it, and Toy Story three was 807 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 1: adding the element of sadness, uh and just just existential 808 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 1: drid But but John Wick three, the only thing it 809 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,840 Speaker 1: added was like a cameo from halle Berry and I 810 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 1: think there was more dogs, right, But he was just saying, 811 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 1: it's really a testament to what originality and like a 812 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 1: homegrown franchise can do if you like actually create a 813 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,720 Speaker 1: new franchise that's like just based on this very simple 814 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:46,279 Speaker 1: idea of like what if the best assassin instead of 815 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:49,279 Speaker 1: just like you know, Bond being a pretty good one, 816 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 1: Like what if it was a guy who was like 817 00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:54,359 Speaker 1: almost supernaturally good at killing people. And then I also 818 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,840 Speaker 1: think there's like a moneyball aspect to it, in the 819 00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 1: sense that they noted there was this headitive advantage with 820 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 1: stunt coordinators directing movies and foreign like the Raid movies 821 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: were these action movies that like broke out internationally kind 822 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 1: of out of nowhere, and they were made by a 823 00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:18,440 Speaker 1: stunt coordinator, And so they gave a stunt coordinator a 824 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 1: movie with like America's favorite movie action hero. And as 825 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 1: with Moneyball, where the second person who figures this thing 826 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,880 Speaker 1: out ends up doing better because they like make small 827 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:36,320 Speaker 1: corrections to it, because you know, Oakland did well that 828 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 1: they didn't actually win at all, and then Boston used 829 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,120 Speaker 1: that theory to win the World Series. Like I think 830 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:46,479 Speaker 1: John Wick is the Boston in that because it's yeah, 831 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 1: I mean, Yankees might not like it, but they're the 832 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:58,000 Speaker 1: evil Empire, so um wow, someone's fan sucks. But anyways, yeah, 833 00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 1: it's an unprecedented like rise, he said, It's borderline miraculous, 834 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:07,280 Speaker 1: especially in this world where you know Netflix is killing 835 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 1: original movies according to everybody. Yeah, well, I think again 836 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 1: it is. It's like when they say the directors for 837 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: action scenes or action films normally be like, all right, 838 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:19,719 Speaker 1: I get with this stunt coordinator. I like, how do 839 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 1: we make this fight look cool? And then they tell you. 840 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 1: But then the director is ultimately going to be like, oh, 841 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 1: I want to do this and this. They're just like, hey, 842 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 1: guys who always think up the wild stunt scenes, what 843 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 1: if you just sucking made a whole movie? What does 844 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: that look like? And they're like, oh really yeah, John Wick, 845 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 1: And everyone's like, what the fun because it really does. 846 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 1: It's like it's like a it's it's almost yeah you could. 847 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 1: These stunt coordinators are like just doing their wildest dreams 848 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 1: getting to put them on screen, and they're not pretending 849 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 1: that action movies are about anything else. Yeah, let's just 850 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,239 Speaker 1: go for it. That's what people like in these the 851 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 1: most simple I'm just looking at your script like, I mean, 852 00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:01,640 Speaker 1: there's no exposition here, what's the siting incident? The guy's 853 00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: dog gets killed, right, and that's the rest. But it 854 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:11,800 Speaker 1: is it's almost like a comically simplified movie like Premise, 855 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,759 Speaker 1: because it's just like the dog being killed is like 856 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 1: the one thing you don't do in a movie, so 857 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,719 Speaker 1: like they're just like, that's enough to drive him to 858 00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:23,160 Speaker 1: be the best killer ever. Um, and then the bad 859 00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:26,319 Speaker 1: guys are all like comically bad. Uh, it's a it's 860 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:30,000 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. Um. Pokemon also is blowing up 861 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:33,680 Speaker 1: in the box office for a video game movie. It's 862 00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 1: probably gonna end up being the biggest video game movie ever, 863 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,959 Speaker 1: which I always thought. I always associated Pokemon with trading cards, 864 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 1: but apparently as a video game friendship franchise, first lot 865 00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:48,239 Speaker 1: of cartoons. Yeah, but they were pointing out in this 866 00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:53,480 Speaker 1: same article that video game movies are typically eight of 867 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:57,920 Speaker 1: their box office comes from international markets, and this Pokemon 868 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:02,399 Speaker 1: movie is notable for being like high thirty percent coming 869 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:06,239 Speaker 1: from North America. So it kind of raised the question 870 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,479 Speaker 1: to me of like why video games are so much 871 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:14,600 Speaker 1: less interesting to audiences in the US, like disproportionately to 872 00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:20,680 Speaker 1: other markets. And uh, super producer Daniel Goodman was saying 873 00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:22,839 Speaker 1: that he thought it had something to do with how 874 00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:26,560 Speaker 1: video games were marketed. Like toys. R US had this 875 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 1: policy where they didn't market any toys to boys and girls. 876 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 1: It was either boys or girls. You like came in 877 00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,279 Speaker 1: and said this is a toy for boys or this 878 00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:39,200 Speaker 1: is a toy for girls. And so Nintendo had to 879 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:43,400 Speaker 1: do that in America and made it specifically for boys. 880 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:48,640 Speaker 1: And so they basically imprinted early in their cultural relationship 881 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 1: to the video games that it's a nerdy thing. For 882 00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 1: boys who don't interact with girls. Uh, and boys eventually 883 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 1: became protective of it thanks to gamer Gate. But yeah, 884 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 1: so it became I don't know, and then Pokemon because 885 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:08,440 Speaker 1: it also had this larger universe of trading cards and 886 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:12,279 Speaker 1: other things, and the characters are just fucking adorable, like 887 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:18,920 Speaker 1: it has like the characters fucking adorable, but there so 888 00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:24,120 Speaker 1: it's like a less binary gendered relationship of the characters 889 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 1: to like boys versus girls. And so maybe that's helping 890 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:31,359 Speaker 1: with why the movie is breaking out a little bit 891 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 1: more than your typical video game movie. Like Rampage and 892 00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 1: um World of Warcraft were both movies that were kind 893 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: of middling to underperforming in the United States, but they 894 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 1: were monster hits overseas. But those are franchises that are 895 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 1: like very just you know, Rampage was more of like 896 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:52,879 Speaker 1: an arcade game, right that was like when you used 897 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:56,839 Speaker 1: to just fight on buildings with your animals. But also 898 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 1: aren't those I mean, I feel like those games are 899 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 1: much more like aggressive fighting games, and Pokemon is like 900 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:07,560 Speaker 1: there's a little more when it is violent. I've seen 901 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:12,479 Speaker 1: I've seen it, I've seen Detective Pikachuh, I have kids, 902 00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:19,800 Speaker 1: um it was fine. I mean, like I have to 903 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 1: see a lot of these movies with the children, and 904 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:25,120 Speaker 1: like as movies that I'm I'm like seeing because I'm 905 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 1: there as a parent. It was like, you know, entertaining. 906 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:37,479 Speaker 1: We could choose very cute, which one's Detective Pikachu, which 907 00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:41,360 Speaker 1: one which is really violent? Yeah, it's true. I probably 908 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:43,360 Speaker 1: shouldn't have taken I was just joking. I didn't know 909 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 1: if it was violent. I mean, it's not like that violent, 910 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:47,759 Speaker 1: but I don't know. It's just it's like I don't 911 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,640 Speaker 1: think of Pokemon. It's like a war game, you know, 912 00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:56,960 Speaker 1: it's more of a dog fighting game very much. But 913 00:53:57,040 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 1: they're so cute. But also the girls are all dressed 914 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 1: like I don't know, anime porn stars in this movie. 915 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:11,840 Speaker 1: Not not in this movie, I guess. Yeah, definitely in 916 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 1: the show. My kid watches a lot of Pokemon, and 917 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 1: I have to constantly be talking about like you know, 918 00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:23,960 Speaker 1: that's not yeah. Yeah. I was actually asking Daniel, who 919 00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:27,400 Speaker 1: is our official Pokemon consultant, that that could be a 920 00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 1: position at most like publications Pokemon consultant because it's so 921 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 1: opaque to people who are like just a little too 922 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:37,719 Speaker 1: old for it. But anyways, I was wondering, is it 923 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:42,759 Speaker 1: an alternate universe, is it a like foreign planet, or 924 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:47,040 Speaker 1: is it basically like an alternate dimension. We found that 925 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:50,840 Speaker 1: it was an alternate like dimension that has some time 926 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:55,880 Speaker 1: with Japan. But yeah, yeah, is alternate dimensions right exactly. 927 00:54:56,480 --> 00:55:00,759 Speaker 1: But the animals, they're just evolved to be more adorable. Um, yeah, 928 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 1: what are the chances that climate change, instead of killing 929 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 1: all of us, Yeah, makes everybody just like adorable and 930 00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:11,279 Speaker 1: all the animals adorable us to Pokemon like, yeah, take 931 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,439 Speaker 1: a lot for those mutations to it. All right, Yeah, 932 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 1: let's talk about the education system real quick. It was 933 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,920 Speaker 1: just a weird I just saw a very odd juxtaposition 934 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,640 Speaker 1: of articles as I was scrolling through like some site 935 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:27,879 Speaker 1: or whatever. The first one was about the billionaire Robert Smith, who, 936 00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:29,759 Speaker 1: if you don't know, over the weekend, he was the 937 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 1: commencement speaker at Morehouse Colleges, you know, class of twenty 938 00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 1: nineteen graduation, and you know, I did the usual commencement 939 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 1: speech thing, and then it was like, oh and also, 940 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:40,160 Speaker 1: I'm just clearing all your student debt to the tune 941 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:42,440 Speaker 1: of around forty million dollars, and I was like, oh 942 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,880 Speaker 1: my god. And which was amazing, you know what I mean, Like, 943 00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:48,919 Speaker 1: and some people were painting it as like a heartwarming story, 944 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:51,239 Speaker 1: but we all know this as a late stage capitalism 945 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: thing that's disguised as a heartwarming story where someone who 946 00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: has all the means is like, here, here's something I 947 00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:00,080 Speaker 1: get that this will help you a lot. Uh, and 948 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 1: the system should have not failed you before. Um. And 949 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,160 Speaker 1: then that was juxtaposed with this other article that said 950 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 1: Olivia Jade, who is Aunt Becky's daughter who was the 951 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,440 Speaker 1: influencer who got kicked out of USC for Operation Varsity 952 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 1: Blues and her parents are still looking at forty years 953 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 1: in prison, is out here saying she actually wants to 954 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:21,719 Speaker 1: go back to USC. Now, now we remember why in 955 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:25,160 Speaker 1: the first place she was open to going to USC, 956 00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 1: and that was because she was interested in the college 957 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:30,279 Speaker 1: experience because the parties were going to be lit and 958 00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 1: like game day, like think about games, just doing like 959 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:37,440 Speaker 1: the whole college thing. Yeah, so she like totally values 960 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:42,080 Speaker 1: and appreciates the unique privilege of getting a college education. 961 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:44,840 Speaker 1: Here's the thing. So in this this little you know, 962 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:47,359 Speaker 1: the US Weekly always has the t which means her 963 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,480 Speaker 1: publicists are trying to get this story out. Um. Was 964 00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:52,920 Speaker 1: that Olivia Jade wants to go back to USC. She 965 00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 1: didn't get officially kicked out, and she was begging the 966 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:59,360 Speaker 1: school to let her back in now. Unfortunately for Genui nineteen, 967 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 1: she's un likely to get her wish anytime soon. Quote. 968 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,120 Speaker 1: She knows they won't let her in, so she's hoping 969 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:07,880 Speaker 1: this info gets out. She wants to come out looking 970 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:11,440 Speaker 1: like she's changed, learned life lessons and is growing as 971 00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 1: a person.
