First, we're gonna tell our listeners a 122 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: couple of the things we're talking about today, We're gonna 123 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: talk about the seasonal retail workers. We're coming up on 124 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: TIS this season for just absurd consumerism, we are about 125 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 1: to hit just unprecedented consumption projected forty six more than 126 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 1: normal when it comes to apparel, and we're also having 127 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: a worker shortage, so you know, see what you do 128 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: with that.

Yeah, 132 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: so we'll talk about that. We will talk about there's 133 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: shocking news coming out that wearing a beard does not 134 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: make you more dominant and manly, which I'm having a 135 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: hard time believe in that. And then, of course, as 136 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: is our want, as is our ema, we we always 137 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: like to check in any time there's a movie pass news, 138 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: piece of movie pass news, So how is there? Why? 139 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: How is there not? How is that not? The only thing? 140 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: We're thinking about all that plenty more? But first ellen, 141 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: we do like to ask our guests, what is something 142 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: for your search history? So I just moved into a 143 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: new house and I cannot find any of my napkins, 144 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: and I have a big collection of cloth napkins, and 145 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: I'm hosting Thanksgiving and laws are coming in from the 146 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: East Coast. We've got some friends coming, so I have 147 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: been doing a lot of searching for Hey, where did 148 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: I put my cloth napkins? Google? All right, how's that? 149 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: How's that going you? Are you happy with the selection? 150 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: Are you happy with what what? I'm having trouble letting 151 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: go of the fact that I can't find these napkins. 152 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: You know, I don't really want to buy any new 153 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: ones because I know I'm going to find them like 154 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: the day after Thanksgiving. Um, so I'm I'm stalling a 155 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: little bit. Your retail news of forty six times the 156 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: demand is making me think I should probably just buy 157 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: someone I'll use them at another holiday. Yeah, there you go. 158 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,479 Speaker 1: That's big. How many people are you having for Thanksgiving? 159 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: So we were thinking of inviting a few more this morning, 160 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: So it's to be between seven and nine, I think, which, Yeah, 161 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: it's I grew up having a huge Thanksgiving. My mom 162 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: would host my dad as a big family, and so 163 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: it would be like forty people, so I'm used to 164 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: it being really big. So this feels manageable, although I've 165 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: never actually done it, so in my head, I'm thinking, like, oh, 166 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: eight people, no big deal. But I also have a 167 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: three year old who there's a wrench into most of 168 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 1: my well laid plans, so we'll have to see how Yeah, 169 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: I have a three year old that literally throws a 170 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: wrench and many of my well laid plans at anything. 171 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 1: At my head about anything is when the way you 172 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: were sort of described, I could hear the resistance in 173 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: your voice, like, I don't know if I can buy anymore. 174 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: It sounds like someone was a healthy napkin supply and 175 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: you're like, I can't add, Like it would be foolish 176 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: of me to augment this by any even one more sheet? 177 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: Is that? Am I am? I feeling napkins? I mean, 178 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: I am the person that walks into a shop and 179 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: I just I'm certain that I need another eight um 180 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 1: so I I had a good collection and I just 181 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: can't find them. And it is so weird. I've unpacked 182 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 1: every box I think, and it would I mean, it 183 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: wouldn't fill a whole box, but it would definitely be 184 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: you know, it feels like it should be found, and 185 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: I really don't like to buy things that I don't 186 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: need or don't use, and so I used all these napkins. 187 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it's been a little emotional. You did 188 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: hear that in my bood? I know I could see 189 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: and I as I know, I get like the frustration 190 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: of like when you have a lot of something and 191 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: you're like, I know I have this somewhere and you've 192 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: moved and then it ends up being like in a 193 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: drawer of like a piece of furniture, like you threw 194 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: in at the last second because you're in such a 195 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: hurry moving out. You're like, why the fund did I 196 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: put it in here? But here they are. I'm definitely 197 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: going to find them. I'm starting to wonder if you've 198 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: got such a lit napkin collection that they got taken 199 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: that they were like, okay, the one thing that we 200 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 1: have to like have fall off this moving tra train, 201 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 1: moving train, right, that's how they moved stuff? Now? Yeah, yeah, yeah, 202 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: So I was going to offer a hack that we 203 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: use around these parts, where you just like put old 204 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: wash cloths out, but it sounds like you're a little 205 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 1: bit beyond beyond that. I really like napkins. You're gonna 206 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: stay at a Courtyard by Maria. You're gonna take all 207 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: the wash cloths when you check in, and you're gonna 208 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: call the front does get medialya and say there are 209 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: no wash cloths in here. I don't know how you 210 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: overload this. I demand six more, just so we can 211 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: not have this problem again. You run that game about 212 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 1: five times and you're you're set for napkin a huge 213 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: thanks what's your main gonna be? Is it gonna be? Uh? 214 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: Turkey ham? What are we talking? Turkey? So there's this 215 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: food delivery service in the Bay Area called good Eggs, 216 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: and I am like their number one customer, and they've 217 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: already pre ordered my Thanksgiving and they have a main 218 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: seeing local vendors that are part of the food. And 219 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: then I'm actually a pretty bad cook. Luckily, my husband 220 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: is a good cook, so I do the sourcing and 221 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: then he's going to do most of the cooking. So 222 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: but we get it all the time, and their recipes 223 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: are easy and nice. So yeah, so it's going to 224 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: be Thanksgiving like straight down the middle, the fast Fall, 225 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: straight down the middle? Cool? What is uh? What's something 226 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: that you think is overrated? So something I think is 227 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: overrated is four twenty as a weed holiday. Okay, we've 228 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: had this before and it is one of the more 229 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 1: convincing cases we've heard, so hit me. Yeah, well, I'm 230 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: sorry to hear that you've already had it before. I 231 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: wanted to be an original, but maybe my perspective will 232 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: be Yeah. And so I was doing some research and 233 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 1: the two of the top weed sales days are actually 234 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 1: the day before Thanksgiving and the day after Thanksgiving. So 235 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: Green Wednesday is what we call the day before Thanksgiving, 236 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: the biggest sales days, or New Year's Eve. These two 237 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving holidays the Wednesday before Christmas and then the Friday 238 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: before Halloween. So I feel like cannabis holidays are becoming 239 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: regular holidays, and it's about being with your friends and 240 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: having a great time and maybe feeling better around your families, 241 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: your grandparents, high dissociating around your problematic uncle with a 242 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: ton of edibles, and just feeling really chill about it all. 243 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: I was able to get through the whole Q lecture 244 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:41,719 Speaker 1: without batting an eye, just laughing your ass like that. 245 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: And also in the past few years, some cannabis brands 246 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: have started to kind of take back for twenty as 247 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: a day to talk about social justice and people that 248 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: are still in prison for cannabis crimes. But I don't 249 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: really think that's the mainstream narrative for it. I still 250 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: think when people year four twenty, they think like kind 251 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: of browie, not not accessible. Um, and so yeah, I 252 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: think it's overrated and I think that there are other 253 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 1: ways that cannabis can be celebrated and let's let's work 254 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: on those. I gotta say, you fucking nailed it. The 255 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: last four twenty under or overrated was really good, but you, uh, 256 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: you nailed it kind of hinged on them wanting to 257 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: make sixty nine and more significant number than four twenties. 258 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: So yeah, years was a little bit June nine baby, 259 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: But I think ye, the last time we were talking 260 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: about is like for me is like an older millennial. 261 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: It was because of the prohibition on cannabis and stuff. 262 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: It felt like, alright, man, were the kids of were 263 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: of divorced parents, who are going to get so fucking 264 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: high after school on this day. And then that habit 265 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: kind of carried on into adulthood. And then as things 266 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: progressed and like even I started working like medical marijuana 267 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: and things just felt a little more normal. It definitely 268 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: like significance has passed. But it's funny when you say that, 269 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: because I definitely have those same things. I'm like, well, 270 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get caught without weed on a long 271 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: weekend like or before Halloween or the fucking the day 272 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: of all days where you're gonna have constant leftover food 273 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: to contend with. I mean, it's all tracks, but it's 274 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: not something I've ever really thought about. I like green Wednesday. Now, 275 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: that's some good, uh marijuana like metrics that you've got there, 276 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: which makes sense. Do you plan on having like a 277 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: like marijuana offerings at your Thanksgiving And do you feel 278 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: pressured as somebody who's like a a thinker in the 279 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: world of of marijuana. Oh wow, well thank you for that. Um. 280 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: I I like to have weed when I'm around people. 281 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: I mean I feel like they not that they expect it, 282 00:15:55,680 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: but I love going to Ellen's house. I love to 283 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: share it, um, and I have a lot, so I 284 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: love to share it. I definitely no one is required, 285 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: and my in laws I would be very surprised if 286 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: they would be interested in partaking, but yeah, we'll have 287 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: it around. And the edible trick of eating more because 288 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: of eating an edible and then getting extra hungry and 289 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: then having like a second helping. A friend of mine 290 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: does that at the beach town where I grew up, 291 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: going right, loves the food so much that he'll just 292 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: have an edible later in the afternoon so they can 293 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: have a second, you know, like and then does that 294 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: because when I like over eat, I feel like shit afterwards. 295 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: But like I feel like when I would over eat 296 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: after smoking, like I wouldn't actually feel as bad. Is 297 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: that like does it help? I guess because it helps 298 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: with stomach right with like, yeah, I mean CBD, especially 299 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: if there's any CBD in your it tends to like 300 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: bring down inflammation, and so that could help if you 301 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,679 Speaker 1: have a stomach ache. Yeah, no one's ever really pointed 302 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: that out before, where often you don't feel bad after 303 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: you maybe eat a ton of extra food, right, Yeah, 304 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: I will be interested to see as you know, we 305 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 1: progress and evolved as a society that has legal weed. 306 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: Like if you know what are the traditions you know 307 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: there there are traditional like alcoholic beverages for each holiday, 308 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 1: Like what what will the traditions be that arise around 309 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,439 Speaker 1: like our existing holidays?

So I don't know if you all 322 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: have heard of the show, but it's called Night on Earth. 323 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: It's a series on Netflix. It's so good. It's so good. 324 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: First of all, it transfixes my three year old, which 325 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 1: is amazing. And basically it goes to all these amazing 326 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: places all over the world on a full moon and 327 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: they have these crazy cameras and so it looks like 328 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: it's daylight but it's the middle of the night, and 329 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: they follow these animals around and you're going to these 330 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: gorgeous places, and literally my son is obsessed, and so 331 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: we watched them over and over and so I just 332 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: I can't recommend it to people enough. The narrator is 333 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: this woman who's voice is so insanely calming and relaxing. 334 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: And the best part for me, because I have watched 335 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: my share of nature shows in my life. This is 336 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 1: sort of a spoiler, but like, the animals don't die. 337 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot of tension, and like there are forty 338 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: thousand Caribbean flamingos and then suddenly, you know, crocodile comes 339 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: through and you're getting really nervous, and I can feel 340 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 1: myself getting nervous now, and then every works out. So 341 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: it's it's amazing. I love it. Wow that the soundtrack 342 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: by Tom waits too. I wouldn't it's so good. I 343 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if they're like brilliant minds behind me. 344 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:52,919 Speaker 1: The U for I have extolled virtues of nature documentaries 345 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: as like entertainment or like something to have on the TV, 346 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: kind of ambiently if your kids are just you know, 347 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: need something on the TV, but you don't want them 348 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: to be poisoned by fucking Paw Patrol or whatever. Yeah, 349 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: nature documentaries are great, but they also especially as a 350 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 1: new parent, because it's always the baby animals that get 351 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: picked off. Like it's yeah, which is wild because I'm 352 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: thinking about, like you know, I like everyone's conscious, like 353 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: I don't want my kid watching this other stuff. Cut 354 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: to our childhoods where it's like I don't know, man, 355 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: this whatever is on is your parents for the moment, 356 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 1: Just deal with that. And I think about, like one 357 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 1: of my earliest memories of TV that was too much 358 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: for me was actually watching Bambi. Yeah, when the mom 359 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 1: gets murked and I was like I was destroyed. I 360 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: couldn't handle Meanwhile, I remember my grandparents like you need 361 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: to watch Roots when I was like four, and like 362 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: that was somehow I was processing that better than watching 363 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 1: Bandy It. So all that to say is that it's 364 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 1: it's interesting the things you remember as a kid where 365 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: maybe as an adult you're like that's too much for them, 366 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,239 Speaker 1: where it's like I'm just literally unable to process this 367 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: Bambi though, where the mom goes bye bye. Yeah. The 368 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: one the one problem that Disney really wanted kids to 369 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: be prepared for is uh is their parents dying like 370 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: violently or just not being dead. Like as as we open, 371 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: they're just like, look, kid, your parents are dead. Okay, 372 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: if they're not that we wanted to prepare you for that, right, Sorry, 373 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: well I was. I was reminded of something because that's 374 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: both of your parents, you know. As the way Ellen, 375 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: you were like, just a tip, you know, this is 376 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: great for the kids.

Have you tried this? 379 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: And then even on like the internet the other day 380 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: I saw it like a tip was like, Hey, just 381 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: a tip for your parents this holiday season. We know 382 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to walk your kids your toy stores 383 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: and they're gonna be like, can I go in there? 384 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: And rather than going in there and saying no to 385 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,479 Speaker 1: them and then triggering a meltdown, he's they were like, 386 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: pro tip, what I do?

Yeah, 402 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: the use of the camera to like, we have an 403 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: issue where when my kids will build something, the other 404 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,959 Speaker 1: one will want to break it, and you know, like 405 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 1: with legos they're magna tiles, and just the way we 406 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: got past that is every time they build it, they're like, hey, 407 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: take a picture. I take a picture, and then they're 408 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: good because like there's like a record of it. They 409 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: never look at it again. But it's just like, yeah, 410 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: it's a feeling that like this has been stored in 411 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: the Library of Congress on my dad's phone less transient. Yeah, yeah, 412 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 1: dad hacks. Hey, that's there's a podcast cut this justin 413 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: because we're gonna make make billions ways to manipulate someone 414 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 1: with us lower intellect than It sounds like we're gaming 415 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: out here. But all right, let's take a quick break. 416 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back, and yeah, let's 417 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: talk about the upcoming holiday season with regards to just 418 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: out of control American consumerism. Yeah, baby, it's uh. They say, 419 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: at a minimum, overall, they're looking at close to ten 420 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 1: percent increase in people just shopping again because people being 421 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: cooped up a little bit more freedom than last time. 422 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 1: I think some people, you know, despite costs going up, 423 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 1: have probably been sitting on some money and are ready 424 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: to buy some stuff for the holidays, and you know, 425 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 1: the holiday season is working. Retail during holiday season is 426 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: a humbling, fucking experience. It's where I learned to hate 427 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: consumer culture. And also it's where I realized that the 428 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: Coach monogram handbags were like Louis Vuitton for Karen's shout 429 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 1: out to the Coach store in Sherman Oaks. But this year, now, 430 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: apparel is projected to be like the hugest biggest increase, 431 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: so to forty six percent more business than normal. So 432 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: if you have apparel then hold onto your fucking butts. 433 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: And now retail operators are kind of in this situation like, Okay, 434 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,679 Speaker 1: labor shortage because we're not paying living wages. Okay, we 435 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: hear that, but also consumers want service, so what are 436 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 1: we to do? And they'll just pay a living wage, right, 437 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: wouldn't that be wouldn't it be nice? But no, they're 438 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: more like, how about some bonuses, bonuses, Like each company 439 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 1: they're they're all doing something different to lure in potential workers. Amazon, 440 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: for example, they're offering seasonal rates of around eighteen dollars 441 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 1: and like even an additional three bucks for certain shifts, 442 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 1: and like assigning bonuses up to three thousand dollars. I mean, wow, 443 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:48,919 Speaker 1: that's something. Target is hiring less seasonal workers than normal 444 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 1: because they want to incentivize their existing staff to work more. 445 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: Hell yeah, And they're saying that's working because they have, 446 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 1: like you know, they're they're saying, like we have an 447 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: education them that will help people go through college, and 448 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: like these other sort of sort of supplemental programs to 449 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: help employees. It's working because Target is really a family, 450 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: and who better you want to spend time with around 451 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: the holidays than your family. Yeah, so you can sleep 452 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: here now, asshole. Then Macy's they're giving existing employees like 453 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: a five dollar bounty for like any new blood they 454 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 1: bring in. They're like, hey, you convinced your friend, all right, 455 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean that's bounty on that. Like recommendation bonuses are 456 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: like kind of their their thing. They're pretty normal. Yes, 457 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: big lots. They're extending their holiday hours and they're making 458 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: up for it by giving employees a fifty dollar gift card. 459 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 1: So all this to say, it seems like, you know, 460 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: companies have done the math, and this seems to be 461 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,360 Speaker 1: like the Black Friday version of like their labor costs, 462 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 1: where Black Friday is like, I know, it looks like 463 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: it's a deal. He's like, but look this is still 464 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: it looks like more to you. But trust me, we're 465 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 1: still making a profit off this. And it feels like 466 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 1: just with these sort of increases in wages and stuff, 467 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: they've done the math. They're like, we can do this. 468 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: It appears we're moving closer to this thing while still 469 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: making the money that we need to without going too far, 470 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: you know, too far afield, and you know, it's it's 471 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: just sort of like it goes back to this idea 472 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: of people.

And just a couple of people were like no, yeah, 503 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: I think of the C suites and there it went. 504 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 1: So yeah, a bit disappointing, but yeah, yeah, it's it's 505 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: it's interesting to just watch how these companies are, like here, 506 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: here's anything but a living wage. So much of the 507 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 1: country's minimum wage is still seven twenty five Jesus. Yeah, 508 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 1: because it's like at the federal bottom. You know, wow, 509 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: m a lot of people are starting to work in weed, 510 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: are getting interested in working in cannabis, so maybe check 511 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: that out. Yeah, like in terms of like helping with cultivation, 512 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it's legal for adult use in nineteen states 513 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: and for medical and thirty six states, and like the 514 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 1: numbers I was telling you last year and the two 515 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: days around Thanksgiving, like hundred and seventy five million dollars 516 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: worth of weed was sold and there but tenders and 517 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 1: cultivators and all kinds of things. So it's a it's 518 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: a really fast growing employer as an industry in the country. 519 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: And yeah, it's funny because like some of some people 520 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: in my family, you know who pre prohibition had developed 521 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: skills that many in our family like, man, they're never 522 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: gonna get a job.

But yeah, that good point. 528 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: I look into it because I mean it's there's especially 529 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: like in I feel like in l A, there will 530 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: always be a poll of people to go up to, 531 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 1: you know, up north when it's time for some trims, 532 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 1: and suddenly they're like, yeah, man, I just go up there. 533 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: I can knock out, you know, or work for like 534 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: three weeks straight and I'm good for a while, you know, 535 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: living minimally, but still there's the opportunities abounded. All right, 536 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,479 Speaker 1: let's check in with like the Trump you know, line up, 537 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: who is he endorsing these days? What what are they 538 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: all about? It seems like we're starting to see a 539 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: trend here. Yeah, I mean, he's his hold on the 540 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: GOP is pretty clear, and he butts heads with Republicans 541 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: that are like only like ninety three percent racist. So 542 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: there's definitely like a type that he prefers. And it 543 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: seems like especially for the people that he's endorsing. When 544 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: you look at some of the people he's endorsed recently, 545 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: they all have a very similar pattern of allegations of abuse. 546 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: You know, like Herschel Walker, who's running for Senate in Georgia, 547 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: has been accused by his ex wife and a former 548 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: girlfriend of like, you know, threatening their lives or like 549 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: pulling a gun on them. Max Miller is a former 550 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: Trump aide who was briefly dating Stephanie Grisham, who was 551 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: the Press secretary during their time at the White House, 552 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 1: and she had accused him of you know, physical abuse 553 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: and had also been arrested like for like fighting at 554 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: hookah bars and all kinds of just like just general 555 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: you know, like he likes to punch people in public. 556 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: It's like brown shirt ship. Yeah. Then there's this guy, 557 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: Sean Parnell. This this guy most recently, Sean Parnell, who's 558 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 1: running in Pennsylvania, got Trump's blessing, and many people yeah, 559 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: and many people like, what's going on here again? Accusations 560 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 1: of abuse from people in his past, physical violent stuff. 561 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: And then he made his worldview like really clear on 562 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: a Fox and like. So then after this stuff came out, 563 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: people like, I'm not sure if you saw him when 564 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: he was on Fox and Friends and started going off 565 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 1: about like tyrant women and just to give you an idea. Again, 566 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: not to be label the point, but this is a 567 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: SoundBite of him sort of. This is sort of his 568 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: general vibe as a man and how he sees the world. 569 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: I feel like the whole happy wife, happy life nonsense 570 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: has done nothing but raised one generation of woman tyrants 571 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: after the next. Maybe it's just now there's an entire 572 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: generation of men that don't want to put up with 573 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: the bs of a high maintenance, narcissistic woman. I also 574 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: think that modern day feminism is driven a wedge between 575 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: men and women. The idea that a woman doesn't need 576 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 1: a man to be successful, the idea that a woman 577 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: could live a happy and fulfilling life without a man. 578 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: I think it's all nonsense. I've already had one failed marriage, 579 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: and you know I've been there, I've done that. But 580 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: I look at women on Instagram when I stumble across 581 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: their pages, and the number one thing that turns me 582 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: off the most is all the duck build selfies, the 583 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 1: narcissistic duck build selfies. From an evolutionary standpoint, it used 584 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: to be, you know, women were attracted to your strength 585 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: because you could defend them from dinosaur. I feel like 586 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 1: there is dinosaur Dad. He's running for senate. He's running 587 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: for fucking senate. But I when you look at sort 588 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: of what the platform is with Trump at the helm, 589 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 1: it really is like this eddle to the metal, like 590 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: fuck progress ship, Like we want a guy who's literally 591 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 1: evoking prehistoric man which as part of his pursuit of 592 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 1: a better America. And I mean this is the thing 593 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: like we've seen Trump cons you know, it's pretty similar. 594 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,760 Speaker 1: He surrounds his people of a similar disposition or shitty character. 595 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: So now when you see that, this almost seems like 596 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: a litmus test to get an endorsement from him, you 597 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 1: can only imagine where the rhetoric and the policies are 598 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 1: headed when this is the stuff that he's like, we 599 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: have to get behind this. We have to get behind 600 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 1: the guy who says women who take selfies are like 601 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 1: narcissistic monsters and I've already had one field marriage. Just 602 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: throw that in there as an aside. I mean, we 603 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: do seem to see this a lot that a comorbidity 604 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: between like violent misogyny and a lot of problems in America, 605 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: whether it be like mass shootings, just murder, or you know, 606 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 1: this fucking white supremacist you know movement. And it makes 607 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 1: sense because being afraid, feeling threatened as in your manhood. 608 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:17,920 Speaker 1: I feel like undergird's a lot of you know, the 609 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: character profiles of the people who are causing a lot 610 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: of the problems in this country. Right because conservatism now 611 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:30,879 Speaker 1: just means go backwards, there's nothing there's at this point, 612 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: they have completely stopped contributing any kind of idea that 613 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: somebody like, yeah, did you hear that thing? Met Rounney said, 614 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: if that were a policy that would make our lives easier. 615 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: It's just been like, man, taxes are too much for 616 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 1: us millionaires and were regular people huh folks, And it's 617 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 1: everything else is just about chipping away at fucking any 618 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: semblance of progress, whether that's for like bodily autonomy or 619 00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 1: reproductive rights or or lgbt you civil rights, anything like this, 620 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: Like no, no, no, we gotta fucking take everything back back, back, 621 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: back back.

And I 623 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: know many people feel like we got to get back 624 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 1: to like simpler times in America. Was this or that, 625 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 1: and we didn't have any idea of things like runaway 626 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 1: misogyny or racism.

Yeah, mine is very 657 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,919 Speaker 1: shadowy at the moment. Yeah, you're look at that ship 658 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: is strong Jack. It looks like a young person trying 659 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 1: to grow a mustache for the first time, right, like 660 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 1: you're about to buy your first pack of cigarettes. Cigarettes, 661 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: please one cigarettes. But people are looking into the psychology 662 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 1: and I guess physiology of beard growth. Yeah, you know, beards. 663 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 1: Beards were pretty big there for a while. I have 664 00:38:55,480 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 1: been noticing, as I am proudly and not at all 665 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 1: being forced to grow mustache this November, I am noticing 666 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: like I'm paying more attention to their facial hair. It 667 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:13,400 Speaker 1: seems like the clean shaven look is in vogue these days. 668 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 1: I think it's a pendulum. Ellen, what's your what's your 669 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 1: take on beards? Are you? Because I felt like at 670 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 1: a time, everyone's like beard. It was like the fucking 671 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: beard era. Everyone's like, oh, look at that beard. Look 672 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: at the instagrams of like buns and beards. Look at 673 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 1: this man with a man bun in a beard? How 674 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 1: How how did you did that poison your brain at all? Well, 675 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 1: my husband has had a beard at different times, and 676 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: not how to beard, and so he's the one who 677 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 1: I pay the most attention to. And we did have 678 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:49,280 Speaker 1: a few conversations where I said, I'm cool with the beard, 679 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: but I needed to look nice, so I needed I 680 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 1: needed to get it trimmed. I need like, do you 681 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: want me to I'm just like I said, I'm sort 682 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 1: of the sorcer in the family. I was like, do 683 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 1: you want me to get to a product? And he 684 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 1: wasn't that excited about a product, but he did go 685 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: and find a place and get beard trimming. Um. But 686 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 1: during COVID, I feel like a lot of people grew beards, 687 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:15,720 Speaker 1: just the way everyone grew all of their things, beards 688 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,840 Speaker 1: and everything, and so maybe the pendulum shift is people 689 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,799 Speaker 1: had them throughout COVID and now it's just I need 690 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 1: to do something that feels not like COVID and remembering 691 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,479 Speaker 1: being at home all the time, because like I feel 692 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 1: like facial hair and like not getting haircuts was sort 693 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 1: of like the dust settling in the offices we weren't 694 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:37,720 Speaker 1: going into anymore, but like manifesting like on our bodies 695 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: or like it's just piling up because mething matters and 696 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: no one's here to see it. And now maybe I think, yeah, 697 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,279 Speaker 1: people like funk Man, this is we're a little less 698 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 1: in survival mode to a certain extent. But I didn't 699 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: realize that the take of or the perception of beards 700 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 1: was that like, it's more I mean, I guess on 701 00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 1: a very basic levels that it means your way more 702 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: masculine and you're way more dominant because you've got a beard, 703 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,879 Speaker 1: and your beard, the fact that you can grow such 704 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:10,760 Speaker 1: a beard are indicators of such virility. Well, it turns 705 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: out it might not be, according to a study is 706 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 1: the Archives of Sexual Behavior Check. They really wanted to 707 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:20,959 Speaker 1: get in. They said, look, we were examining quote, whether 708 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: beards are honest signals of biological in terms of testosterone 709 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 1: levels and psychological self reported dominance traits. So they got 710 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:33,279 Speaker 1: a group of like young healthy men based on you 711 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 1: know what the metrics they were using, and they measured 712 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: their beards like regularly using digital calipers, Like they were 713 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 1: being like, let's really get in here, let's try and 714 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 1: be as scientific as possible. And then they also would 715 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: provide saliva samples like before and after working out, just 716 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: to see like how they're like testosterone and cortisol levels 717 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 1: were and they also like had to report their dominance 718 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 1: on this five item scale. Well, they looked into all 719 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 1: this and they've found that beard length was not related 720 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: to testosterone levels or dominance. Thus, no evidence was found 721 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 1: to support the hypothesis that beards are honest signals of 722 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 1: the beard owner's testosterone levels and dominance. Thank you, I 723 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: rest of my case. I have no beard. My testosterons 724 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: through the chart. That's why I'm bad. Who was brobot? 725 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:25,919 Speaker 1: Was this a bro Bible like study? Like what? I'm 726 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 1: so confused as to like where this. I think it's 727 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 1: maybe just that's exactly I was surprised. But I think 728 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,239 Speaker 1: maybe that's just I think generally, right, it's just the 729 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:40,800 Speaker 1: visuals of like masculinity, right, or being like a lumberjack. Visually, 730 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 1: It's like, look at this big fucker with the flannel on, 731 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: He's got to have testosterone shooting at his face. But 732 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: I think maybe that's where it came from. But I 733 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 1: or like we just all miss our dads from the 734 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,319 Speaker 1: eighties when they may or may not have had a 735 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: beard at the point. I mean, I just think it's 736 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: so fashion like based, zeitgeist based, and also like just 737 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 1: dependent on like how you feel about the strength of 738 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 1: your chin. Like, I feel like a lot of people 739 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 1: grow beards too, you know, give themselves a little bit 740 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,280 Speaker 1: of a chin, and that's that's fine, and that's great, 741 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:23,320 Speaker 1: but like to to assume that it's based on like God, 742 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,399 Speaker 1: I can't I can't help grow this fucking beard. It's 743 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 1: just it's just bursting out of my face because I'm 744 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:34,239 Speaker 1: so damned dominant. It's like, right, and it's not that 745 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:38,320 Speaker 1: much fun to kiss someone with a beard. No, So 746 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 1: I've never thought of it as a manly I guess 747 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 1: I've never really thought about it that way. But kissing 748 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: someone with a beard is clean, shaven's kind of nicer. 749 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:53,920 Speaker 1: I think it reveals sort of the perception of the 750 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 1: beard grow. Like to your point, you're like, I don't 751 00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 1: really I'm not to say that you're speaking for every person, 752 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 1: but that like you're like, I didn't really think about it, 753 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 1: whereas someone who's growing the beers like, fucky, man, I'm 754 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:06,400 Speaker 1: gonna look like a fucking like a like a Spec 755 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: Cops fucking Navy seal in Afghanistan with this beard. Zero 756 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 1: dark thirty like started a big part of the beard trend. Right, 757 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,080 Speaker 1: we'll consider now, right, like on the far right. A 758 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: beard is almost standard battle dress for these people, for 759 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 1: proud boys and those gropers and that whole fucking group 760 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 1: of people like where you're like, of course, y'all have 761 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:33,879 Speaker 1: to do everything as outwardly masculine as possible because you're not, 762 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 1: because you believe in your own masculinity and dominance. I'm 763 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,279 Speaker 1: sure that beard is not compensation. And mean, listen that 764 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,319 Speaker 1: it was just talking like in the last that guy 765 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 1: is masculine as fucking has no problems being insecure about 766 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 1: his masculinity, right, And so there's like there's something I 767 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 1: think to that, and it maybe it is in the 768 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 1: eye of the beard holder m what they believe themselves, 769 00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 1: or maybe that's what I'll do to tell myself it's 770 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 1: okay that I couldn't. I'll be honest. I think when 771 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: growing up though, like in puberty, I was telling my 772 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: other friends fucking growing wild ass facial hair, I'm like, 773 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:09,800 Speaker 1: what the fuck?

I can't when will I get 775 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 1: there is something a matter with me? And then I 776 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:20,160 Speaker 1: think that's just because I've mainlined too much American pop culture, 777 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 1: where I think weird again, fetish steady diet of beards 778 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 1: over our lifetimes.

But okay, So Stacy Spike, one of 790 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,359 Speaker 1: the co founders of Movie Passes, announced that he is 791 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,280 Speaker 1: but the remnants of the company in hopes of restoring 792 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 1: it to its wildly unsustainable glory of Yeah, baby, I it. 793 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:35,240 Speaker 1: I'm still so confused about this because, as we all knew, 794 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 1: on paper, we're like, Hi, how you can make it 795 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 1: work for ten bucks a month? Does that work? Because 796 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:45,720 Speaker 1: the ticket is okay whatever? But yeah, as Stacy Spikes said, 797 00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,759 Speaker 1: he came out and said, I can confirm that we 798 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 1: acquired movie Pass out of bankruptcy on Wednesday. We are 799 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,400 Speaker 1: thrilled to have it back and we are exploring the 800 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 1: possibility of relaunching soon. Our pursuit to reclaim the brand 801 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,880 Speaker 1: was incur reached by the continued interest from the movie 802 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:07,359 Speaker 1: going community. We believe, if done properly, theatrical subscription can 803 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 1: play an instrumental role in lifting movie going attendance to 804 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 1: new heights. And here's the thing. He started this in 805 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:18,719 Speaker 1: two thousand eleven, or co founded it with this other 806 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 1: dude in two thousand eleven, and they got bought in 807 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:26,600 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen by Helio something whatever, the company that completely 808 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,359 Speaker 1: bankrupted them. That's when like we sort of I think 809 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,880 Speaker 1: in the mainstream we're like, wait, movie Pass what because 810 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,720 Speaker 1: that's when they launched out the ten dollars a month 811 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 1: all you can watch sort of plan, and within two 812 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 1: days they went from twenty thousand to a hundred thousand 813 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,799 Speaker 1: subscription subscriptions, and then in less than a year they 814 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 1: had over three million subscribers. And I think that's when 815 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:53,759 Speaker 1: they were like, fun, wait, so he preceded that explosion 816 00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,680 Speaker 1: or yeah, they were trying to they were struggling to 817 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 1: get it off the ground and since eleven they're like, 818 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: I mean, we liked the idea. They're big movie fans, 819 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:03,680 Speaker 1: and they figured that this is something that could work. 820 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 1: But then these two big dicks came in being like no, no, no, 821 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 1: you got it all wrong, Like I know the people 822 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,279 Speaker 1: over there will do something wildly unsustainable and it'll look 823 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 1: cool for a second. Maybe we can sell the thing 824 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 1: before they re there onto the fact that this is 825 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,799 Speaker 1: a sham. But the funny part was the two guys 826 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 1: who took over the company, Like Spikes was still sort 827 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 1: of involved, and then he in he was fired because 828 00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: he raised concerns internally about the sustainability of the ten 829 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 1: dollar price point. Get out of here, you fucking hater, 830 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:41,399 Speaker 1: So he watched it all fall apart. I don't know, 831 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 1: I'm still unclear on how it's going to be sustainable 832 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 1: in any way, Like aren't the price is going to 833 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: have to go up? Will't it be like you can't 834 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:55,240 Speaker 1: be unlimited anymore? And at the same time, I feel 835 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:58,400 Speaker 1: like places like AMC have caught on and they're like, no, 836 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 1: this is actually this is a good way to kind 837 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:03,160 Speaker 1: of keep up constant flow of money coming in. And 838 00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,759 Speaker 1: sometimes they might not go see movies. But I'm just, yeah, 839 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:08,719 Speaker 1: I don't know, how how do we bring how do 840 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 1: they bring it back? If they bring it back, it's 841 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,239 Speaker 1: it seems like his plan is to bring it back 842 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 1: at a higher price point, right, Like his his whole issue. 843 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 1: Like he was like, the ten dollars thing is a great, 844 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:24,280 Speaker 1: like kind of limited time offer. We hit our goal, 845 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 1: all right, turn it off like that that that was 846 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 1: the goal. And they were like what if this was 847 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,879 Speaker 1: the price though, and he was like, well then we'd 848 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,719 Speaker 1: go out of business really fast. And they were like, 849 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:39,600 Speaker 1: you're fired, get out of here. So it's just it's 850 00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:44,440 Speaker 1: just a question of how much the kind of offering 851 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 1: is contingent on. Like I think I would only do 852 00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 1: it if it was like tennish dollars or like the 853 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:54,400 Speaker 1: price of a movie ticket, because then I could like 854 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:56,200 Speaker 1: get my mind around, Okay, I'll have to do is 855 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 1: average a movie a month, which I'm totally planning on doing, 856 00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 1: and I would be you know, saving money. But if 857 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 1: the last time I went to a movie, I thought 858 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 1: it was like twenty bucks a ticket, Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, 859 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:16,000 Speaker 1: it's absurd. I'm just I'm but Jack, what you're saying 860 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 1: is like you'd pay for one movie a month, so 861 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,200 Speaker 1: that's twenty bucks, so that's already doubling. Yeah, that's true. 862 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: That's a really good point. That would make their business 863 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:28,120 Speaker 1: a little better. Yeah, I know, I feel like honestly, 864 00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 1: like isn't there? When are we going to see? And 865 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 1: I guess this is a question for you, Alan, because 866 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,880 Speaker 1: you you have your ear to the streets cannabis wise, 867 00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:40,840 Speaker 1: when our movie theater is going to be a venue 868 00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 1: for consumption, you know, like, what do you think is 869 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:45,800 Speaker 1: getting in the way? Because like in l A, you 870 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 1: see these little places starting to pop up to like 871 00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 1: the Lowell Cafe and stuff, or you can eat and 872 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:57,920 Speaker 1: smoke and pay ridiculous rental costs for like water pipes 873 00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 1: and ship But is there, like where are we there? 874 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:05,920 Speaker 1: Because I'm always curious about that as as things progress. Well, yeah, 875 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:08,360 Speaker 1: I love the idea because movies and we'd go together. 876 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 1: So well, I mean, the first thing that comes to 877 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: my mind is smoking issues, and so probably have to 878 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 1: be outside because I don't think you can smoke inside 879 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 1: in a lot of places anyway. But I mean, you 880 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:22,640 Speaker 1: look at all the people who built movie theaters in 881 00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 1: their backyard with a screen during COVID, it's not right now, 882 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:28,720 Speaker 1: you could throw it on if you have any type 883 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 1: of outdoor space, right, that would be fun. Like sin 884 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:36,400 Speaker 1: Espa was doing that in l A for the like 885 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,080 Speaker 1: Hollywood Forever screenings, Like you would see sort of like 886 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:41,600 Speaker 1: weed delivery company sort of set up shop and then 887 00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:45,160 Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, man, litter, we're in a cemetery. Yeah, 888 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 1: old pal, did that remember hearing about that? Yeah, So 889 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 1: outdoor things I think probably, I mean movie theaters with alcohol. 890 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 1: I think that the chain that was here just went 891 00:51:56,640 --> 00:52:01,400 Speaker 1: out of business during COVID whatever, the like arc Light. Yeah, yeah, 892 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 1: And I don't like to drink during movies because it 893 00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 1: makes me tired and yeah, and then I want to 894 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:12,480 Speaker 1: all sleep. So weed and movies seems like a better mix. Yeah. 895 00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 1: I could also see like if it was indoors, it's 896 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:19,160 Speaker 1: just so smoky you can't see the screen. You're like, man, 897 00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:21,839 Speaker 1: like this movie maybe would have been a little bit 898 00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 1: better if it wasn't a goddamno. Maybe you need a 899 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,600 Speaker 1: subscription to a dispensary service and you just walk in 900 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:30,040 Speaker 1: and it's sort of like the fumes for five bucks 901 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 1: a month, you just you don't even have to bring 902 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:35,080 Speaker 1: your own weed. It's just a oh yeah, or like 903 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,319 Speaker 1: a do edibles if you can't smoke. They're like here 904 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 1: going the edible pit for a little bit, give yourself 905 00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:43,359 Speaker 1: about forty minutes and then the show will start you going, 906 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,800 Speaker 1: and maybe it starts uh knocking on your door. And 907 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 1: now suddenly the new Cruella filmsable. I wouldn't call it 908 00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 1: in edible pit because that makes me think of a 909 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:57,359 Speaker 1: ball pit that's just full of edibles. The kids are 910 00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 1: playing in edible pen.

Yeah, Well, what I 928 00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 1: did learn is that cannabis increases your like it makes 929 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:11,160 Speaker 1: food smell and taste better. That's what the receptors are 930 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:14,839 Speaker 1: connecting with your body. So anytime food tastes and smells better, 931 00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,480 Speaker 1: that sounds pretty awesome. So yeah, that's the word that 932 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:20,799 Speaker 1: we are going to be talking about in Thanksgiving and 933 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,880 Speaker 1: in general for our show.

You know. The 936 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 1: show is called how to Do the Pot because when 937 00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:35,760 Speaker 1: I was talking to friends about what I was doing, 938 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:37,719 Speaker 1: I would kind of be like, oh, yeah, we're going 939 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:39,560 Speaker 1: to teach how to do the pot and everyone would laugh, 940 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:41,799 Speaker 1: And I thought that was a pretty good place to 941 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 1: start because you can kind of you know, and I 942 00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:49,160 Speaker 1: also think that for people who intuitively call it pot, 943 00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:52,600 Speaker 1: you kind of have some stigmas and fear and propaganda. 944 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: So I'm sort of like speaking to those people a 945 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,640 Speaker 1: little bit and just being like, it's we'd have fun, 946 00:54:57,880 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 1: but also you need to know how to do it, 947 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:02,920 Speaker 1: because is there's so much to learn about cannabis. I mean, 948 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:06,080 Speaker 1: the employment stuff is super fascinating, the social social justice 949 00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:09,480 Speaker 1: side of it is incredibly important and interesting. But also 950 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,799 Speaker 1: if you just don't know to wait an hour when 951 00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 1: you've eaten inedible before trying another one, like that's also 952 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:18,879 Speaker 1: super critical. So we try and cover all of it. 953 00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:22,120 Speaker 1: And we actually have a show, a series that comes 954 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:24,479 Speaker 1: out weekly that's called The First Time I Bought Legal Weed, 955 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,600 Speaker 1: and women from all across the country send us their 956 00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 1: voice memo and tell us the story of the first 957 00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:33,839 Speaker 1: time that they bought weed. And it started because I 958 00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:35,760 Speaker 1: was just talking to a lot of women who were 959 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:39,520 Speaker 1: curious and wanted to try it but really just couldn't 960 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,319 Speaker 1: get themselves there. And so I thought by building this 961 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,200 Speaker 1: like tribe of friends basically who are telling you. And 962 00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 1: it's not that all the stories are great. I mean, 963 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:49,360 Speaker 1: my first time in San Francisco, I went to a 964 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: dispensary that had bulletproof glass and did not feel good. 965 00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:53,480 Speaker 1: And then I also want to one that seemed like 966 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 1: a restaurant, and I want everyone to know that there's 967 00:55:56,520 --> 00:56:00,040 Speaker 1: a range. And so yeah, we're really just try in 968 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:01,920 Speaker 1: to make you feel like you have a friend in 969 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 1: Weed who you can ask the questions that you have 970 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,800 Speaker 1: in a in a discreet way, so you don't have 971 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:11,160 Speaker 1: to tell everyone that you're super curious, but you can 972 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,399 Speaker 1: learn what you need to know. And your theme song 973 00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 1: is the toy Store. You got a friend in Weed? Right? 974 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:20,839 Speaker 1: My god? Randy Newman is like nails in a talk 975 00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 1: word to me, and my husband loves him. So you're saying, 976 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:29,360 Speaker 1: like people, you can kind of tell something about people 977 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:33,720 Speaker 1: if they call it pot? What about smoking dope? That 978 00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,800 Speaker 1: I mean? The first vision in my head is definitely 979 00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:40,000 Speaker 1: somebody over sixty. Yeah that's what That's what my dad 980 00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 1: calls it. Hey, if you want to smoke dope throughout 981 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:48,280 Speaker 1: your life away, you know what's so funny? Oh my god, 982 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:50,000 Speaker 1: I just remember this day. I don't know why didn't 983 00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,399 Speaker 1: tell you. I feel like and my mom, I don't 984 00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:54,239 Speaker 1: know if my mom listens sometimes And if you're listening 985 00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 1: to mom whatever she talks about when like she caught 986 00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,440 Speaker 1: me smoking weed once. She's like, don't have smoked weed before, 987 00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:02,960 Speaker 1: you know, back in the seventies, And I'm like, oh yeah, 988 00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 1: I was just like, yeah, I remember we smoked me 989 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:08,200 Speaker 1: your aunts and then we watched Jaws, and that's so 990 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:14,400 Speaker 1: scary scary. But I'm curious, like when you when you 991 00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:17,280 Speaker 1: talk about sort of the like the barriers to entry 992 00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:19,240 Speaker 1: as you see it, for people who are like I 993 00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:21,520 Speaker 1: don't know about this weed stuff, what are what are 994 00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:24,960 Speaker 1: like the common things that you've realized are like like 995 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 1: the common obstacles that people have to sort of get over, 996 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,520 Speaker 1: and then they're like, oh shit, right, I actually enjoyed this. 997 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:33,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I think the first thing is that it's 998 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:35,800 Speaker 1: just been illegal for so long, and so a lot 999 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 1: of people just are scared of what could happen to 1000 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 1: them and scared of breaking the law or know someone 1001 00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 1: who got in trouble. So that feels like the first 1002 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:46,960 Speaker 1: thing that you have to come across. I think the 1003 00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 1: second thing is a bad experience where you got too 1004 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:54,320 Speaker 1: high and just had a really bad time and basically 1005 00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 1: never wanted to touch it again or didn't have a 1006 00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 1: terrible time, but it just didn't feel great, and it 1007 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 1: was a hassle to get and kind of a paint, 1008 00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 1: you know, all of those barriers. So I think those 1009 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:10,040 Speaker 1: are the two things that I hear about the most. 1010 00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 1: And now though I have to say most people just 1011 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:17,320 Speaker 1: seem really curious and and and the question I get 1012 00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:20,880 Speaker 1: the most now is what should I buy? Oh, what's 1013 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 1: a good entry point for me? Exactly? Like maybe some 1014 00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:27,280 Speaker 1: low low t C just to kind of get it 1015 00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:31,600 Speaker 1: see where you're at that I tell people, you know, 1016 00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:35,480 Speaker 1: there is definitely weird that feels kind of like glass 1017 00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:39,760 Speaker 1: of champagne. So maybe start there and add some CBD 1018 00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:43,320 Speaker 1: and take it slow, and don't be afraid to cut 1019 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,440 Speaker 1: the edible into fours. There's no shame. Some of these 1020 00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:50,640 Speaker 1: edibles on the market are strong. So it's kind of 1021 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 1: just think about this like something that is worth being 1022 00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 1: curious about because you will get some answers that then 1023 00:58:57,560 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 1: you won't have to think about again. You know, it's 1024 00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 1: sort of binary like once you kind of know what 1025 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,800 Speaker 1: the right amount of a THHC edible is for you, you 1026 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,280 Speaker 1: you can choose different brands, you can play around, but 1027 00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:10,200 Speaker 1: you're not going to have to go back and be like, 1028 00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:19,680 Speaker 1: do I like five melograms or ten melograms? I'm I 1029 00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 1: need what should I do? Ellen? Why? Why? Why am 1030 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:27,479 Speaker 1: I at twenty? Because it's your endocannabinoid system. We all 1031 00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:30,400 Speaker 1: have one. It's the system in our body that balances 1032 00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:34,120 Speaker 1: all the other systems and the tolerance that you have. 1033 00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how much weed you have 1034 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:38,520 Speaker 1: in your body at any different times, and there is 1035 00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:44,800 Speaker 1: I am we great words of machine gun Kelly, but 1036 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 1: like if you you know, if you have a headache 1037 00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 1: and you're going to take something over the counter, like, 1038 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:54,080 Speaker 1: are you the person that definitely needs to advill or 1039 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,480 Speaker 1: with like half an advill work for you? Because I 1040 00:59:56,520 --> 01:00:00,040 Speaker 1: think that all of our systems metabolize things coming in 1041 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:03,080 Speaker 1: at a different rate. I'm super sensitive to all medicine 1042 01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:06,320 Speaker 1: and always have been. So I think that that's part 1043 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:08,440 Speaker 1: of what I know about myself, and I bring that 1044 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:11,280 Speaker 1: into when I consider what I what I want to 1045 01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:13,840 Speaker 1: be consuming with weed. Yeah, Miles, you don't like even 1046 01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:16,240 Speaker 1: feel the effects of caffeine really, so like I know, 1047 01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:18,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't feel the effects of caffeine 1048 01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:25,520 Speaker 1: unless I'm drinking like undiluted like cold grew concentrate. I 1049 01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 1: typically synthesize things a lot slower, like if it if 1050 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:34,480 Speaker 1: I'm you know, taking anything like everybody else is there already, 1051 01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:38,040 Speaker 1: Well TikTok, what's going on? But yeah, that is true 1052 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:40,600 Speaker 1: with like stuff like that, though I don't take a 1053 01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:43,000 Speaker 1: lot of like advilla or whatever. But I think that's 1054 01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:44,960 Speaker 1: just more born out of growing up with an immigrant 1055 01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 1: mom who said, you don't need that crap. Yeah, I 1056 01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:49,200 Speaker 1: was just it was the first example that came in 1057 01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:51,440 Speaker 1: my head. But any kind of like caffeine for me, 1058 01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:55,200 Speaker 1: I can't drink it. It makes me so even one 1059 01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 1: cup of coffee. I switched to tea, and and like 1060 01:00:57,800 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 1: even caffeine and tea I have to be super careful 1061 01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 1: about because I just get that jittery feeling. Yeah. That's 1062 01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:09,400 Speaker 1: called the endoca endocannabinoid endocannabinoid system, and it was discovered 1063 01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 1: about almost thirty years ago in Israel, and it's the 1064 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:16,240 Speaker 1: system that balances all the other systems in your body, 1065 01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:19,080 Speaker 1: much like the nervous system of the cardiovascular system. But 1066 01:01:19,160 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 1: no one really knows about it and it's not really 1067 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:24,720 Speaker 1: taught in medical school. So luckily there's some amazing cannabis 1068 01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 1: doctors that are studying it, and I think this is 1069 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:30,080 Speaker 1: all part of my constantly just saying please, can we 1070 01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 1: have more research about this because I think there is 1071 01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:37,240 Speaker 1: so so much to be discovered that will be incredible 1072 01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:40,720 Speaker 1: and will really benefit from. That's super interesting. Hit me 1073 01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:46,320 Speaker 1: with one paranoia practical tip because I smoked weed a lot, 1074 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 1: but I'd say fifty to seventy percent of the time 1075 01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,440 Speaker 1: I would have a panic attack. But I just really 1076 01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:54,000 Speaker 1: liked the idea of weeds, so like I would keep 1077 01:01:54,040 --> 01:01:55,960 Speaker 1: saying kind of smoking it, but I wanted to be 1078 01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:59,320 Speaker 1: friends with these kids, just like, yeah, this is a 1079 01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:03,960 Speaker 1: great wow. Jack, you're bending your car keys in your 1080 01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:10,640 Speaker 1: hand again from your handy fist being so tight. Like well, 1081 01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:12,880 Speaker 1: the best tip I have is, if you get too high, 1082 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:16,840 Speaker 1: have a CBD tincture around and it can be a Hempteri' 1083 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:19,640 Speaker 1: CBD tincture. You can buy it online. They're easy to get. 1084 01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:22,920 Speaker 1: And put a dropper under your tongue and hold it 1085 01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:25,920 Speaker 1: there for thirty to sixty seconds and about fifteen minutes 1086 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,440 Speaker 1: you will be You will feel more like yourself and 1087 01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:33,160 Speaker 1: less high. That's an awesome trick, and tell everyone because 1088 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:35,040 Speaker 1: I feel like it does give people like if I 1089 01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:37,480 Speaker 1: kind of watched your shoulders drop a little, you were like, oh, 1090 01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:40,160 Speaker 1: that might be better, And that's the kind of tip 1091 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:43,760 Speaker 1: it is. So yeah, CBD tincture. You can also smoke 1092 01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,320 Speaker 1: CBD if if that's what you're into. You need a 1093 01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 1: fast acting form though, so a tincture or smoking is 1094 01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:53,800 Speaker 1: what's gonna basically counteract the th HC and then you know, 1095 01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:57,560 Speaker 1: for your specific experience, I would say probably never smoke 1096 01:02:57,640 --> 01:03:03,800 Speaker 1: cannabis with HC. Just like watch the percentages because we 1097 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:06,560 Speaker 1: have receptors in our brain that connect to the th 1098 01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:09,320 Speaker 1: HC and it sounds like yours are sensitive and it's 1099 01:03:09,360 --> 01:03:11,600 Speaker 1: really just high th HC that can bring on those 1100 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:14,840 Speaker 1: feelings of paranoia. Yeah, I was smoking at a time 1101 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:17,960 Speaker 1: where you just smoked whatever your cousin could get at 1102 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:20,960 Speaker 1: that given moment, and it was it was also at 1103 01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 1: a time when like some weed was still really bad 1104 01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:26,160 Speaker 1: and some was like the some would come through and 1105 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:32,040 Speaker 1: you're like, right, so, yeah, like did you hear my 1106 01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:37,080 Speaker 1: mom call my name?

So I am not 1119 01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:22,240 Speaker 1: on Twitter very much, but I could not ignore this 1120 01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:26,560 Speaker 1: Elon Musk tweet where he decided to ask his followers 1121 01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:28,800 Speaker 1: if you should sell Tim percent of his Treestla stock, 1122 01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 1: and he did, and he sold five billion dollars with 1123 01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:33,560 Speaker 1: the stock. I used to work on Wall Street. I 1124 01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:35,640 Speaker 1: worked on a trading floor, and it it just like 1125 01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:40,040 Speaker 1: I I saw this heading come across my news wire 1126 01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:46,280 Speaker 1: and was like, wow, trading is different now. So it 1127 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:48,440 Speaker 1: was very I I don't I don't even know if 1128 01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 1: I have an opinion. I just kind of said, wow, 1129 01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:54,680 Speaker 1: this actually happened, Yes, you know, I don't know. It 1130 01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:57,440 Speaker 1: was like five million people that came in and and 1131 01:04:57,480 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 1: gave him an answer, and then two days later he 1132 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:04,320 Speaker 1: sold five billion dollars worth of Tesla stock. Yeah, what's 1133 01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:07,600 Speaker 1: he doing with it? Though? He's gonna have to pay 1134 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:09,160 Speaker 1: some taxes, so that's going to be part of it. 1135 01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:10,840 Speaker 1: This is like selling before the end of the year. 1136 01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:13,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know what he I I don't 1137 01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:16,480 Speaker 1: follow him that often. Um really, I'm just not on 1138 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,960 Speaker 1: Twitter very much. But my dad mased Tesla and loves it, 1139 01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:23,680 Speaker 1: and he also loves to trade stocks, and he's so 1140 01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:26,360 Speaker 1: mad at the Tesla stock. So it's just kind of 1141 01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:28,919 Speaker 1: a funny thing for me to see that Elon Musk 1142 01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 1: is creating this company with products that people love, and 1143 01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:34,000 Speaker 1: then he's doing things in the market. And I think 1144 01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:37,600 Speaker 1: Tesla was the most googled stock of the year. I mean, 1145 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:42,160 Speaker 1: he's getting amazing press and three and it's just it's 1146 01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:45,200 Speaker 1: a lot. And it all started on Twitter.
