Speaker 1: y'all may know. I'm an avid coffee enthusiast enthusiast enthusiast.

19
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: I like coffee and just working on a couple of projects.

20
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: Last year, we did a idea like a a collab

21
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: drop you know, with a roaster call Onyx, A little small,

22
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: a lot things. So now I got this other partner

23
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: I'm working without in Atlanta out here, So I was

24
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: doing what's called a cupping, which is just basically like

25
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: you've everyone that like a wine tasting. Oh yeah, like

26
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: that for coffee. Oh yeah, you spit it out, you do,

27
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: because it's a lot of coffee, Like you should definitely

28
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: spit it out because wait, so what a cupping? How

29
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: many like how many coffees are you trying in the city? Okay,

30
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: so usually it depends on how big the cupping is,

31
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: but like usually there's you try to go clockwise, so

32
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: there's four per round per round, yes, no you yeah,

33
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: it's getting That's why I was like, yeah, spit it out.

34
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: And first you like you grind it, you smell it dry,

35
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: you know, and then you're writing, you know when you

36
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 1: buy a bag of coffee, as all those flavor notes

37
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: written on there. Yeah, so this is where those come from.

38
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: And then there's a number there's actually like a at

39
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: out sounds like I'm deep in the hole. Here, but

40
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: it's sounds. There's a an actual, like agreed upon like

41
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: standardized number of ratings for like a quality of coffee.

42
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: For something to be considered like specialty coffee, it's got

43
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: to be like an eighty an eighty or above. It's

44
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: on a scale of like one to dred. So you know,

45
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: if you're gonna do like the specialty like coffee shop coffee,

46
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 1: not like the like you know, jab a chip, you know,

47
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,839
Speaker 1: the those are that's more like second wave usually those

48
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: are like those are more rated in like either the

49
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: high seventies or very low eighties. Did they ever just

50
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: throw some folders in there to funk with you? Yeah,

51
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: you're gonna catch it immediately, I'm saying. And what's funny

52
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: about folders is like it's because by the time it

53
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: got into the can in that in the in the

54
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,519
Speaker 1: little plastic can that they air tight sealed, it's like

55
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: that copies like a year old before it even got

56
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: to the shelf, you know, saying yeah yeah, so uh yeah,

57
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: so it's folder score. Yeah, Folgers is like what's left

58
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: on the table, We'll buy all of it. Oh, so

59
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,519
Speaker 1: it's it's the shape what's left broke? Yeah, after you

60
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: broke the pound down whatever, fols. Yeah, that top five percent,

61
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: those like nineties and ninety five and like ninety eight rates.

62
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: They don't even make it to America, like do buy Qatar?

63
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: Like the Middle East buys all those. So we're not

64
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: even getting the best coffee, you know what I'm saying.

65
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 1: It's really just like drugs. We're like, no, you're not

66
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: actually you're not even gettings. It gets on its way here. Yeah,

67
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: you don't even get that. They don't even show it

68
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: to you, Like if you're an American buyer, like the farmers,

69
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: not even gonna show it to you because like I

70
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: can't just don't even don't worry about it. Hey, you

71
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: can try to folders though. We got the C minus grades. Yeah,

72
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: all right. So I've been doing something lately. So for

73
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 1: a while I switched off to tea and was doing

74
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: some macha. Then I went down to Guatemala had to

75
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: partake in the coffee there. Have not backed off of

76
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: the coffee since then, but I have been putting half

77
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: water half coffee in my cup in the morning, and

78
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: I just want you to tell me how disgusting and

79
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: stupid that is. Listen, man, there's a bell curve of

80
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: I mean that sounds awful, but there is, there is,

81
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: there is a bell curve of like like anything, it's

82
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: like when you first discover it, you're like a new

83
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: Christian about it, you know, so you're like evangelizing with everybody.

84
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: And then you hit like a snob a tea, right,

85
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: and then that's where everybody's like, got that's everybody knows

86
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: the coffee snob. But then you come down the other

87
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: end of that to where you're just like, look, dude,

88
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: you like what you like? You know now, and an

89
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: Americano is that it's an espresso shot that you add

90
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: water to. You know. Now, granted, if you're just brewing

91
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: a regular drip cup of coffee and then adding water,

92
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 1: I'm like, hot water. Yeah, there's probably a better way

93
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: to do this, but but uh, but if that's how

94
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 1: you like it, that's your cup. I'm pretty sure. Five

95
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: you know, Michelin Star chefs will still go to like

96
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: Fenway Park and get a hot dog, you know, and

97
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: it's like, I love it, you know what I mean?

98
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:44,359
Speaker 1: You know, but I am I am almost You've almost

99
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: given me a new assignment to pull up on you

100
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: and be like Okay, let me make this cup for you. Yeah,

101
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: because what you're just because you want less caffeine, right,

102
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: is that the idea? You just want less caffeine. And

103
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm drinking it black in the mornings, like

104
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: I've I've moved off of my coffee mate days, which

105
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: I realized was killing me, probably faster than I anticipated.

106
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 1: And so now now I'm doing black coffee. But black coffee,

107
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: if you drink too much of it gives you a

108
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: little like you know, you can get sores in your

109
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: mouth if you're if it's too strong, if it's that

110
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: starbust stuff. So I'm just trying to keep it real,

111
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 1: and I just like it better to like have it

112
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: be kind of a little smoother, Yeah, a little. And

113
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 1: the thing is like, yeah, I mean we're way off

114
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: the rails here, but like that's like because I'm I mean,

115
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I could I spend a whole hour talking

116
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: about this stuff. But like I think that there's I mean,

117
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 1: first of all, like I'm I'm I know y'all got

118
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: doctors into building, so let me be careful when I

119
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 1: say this. But like deluting it doesn't doesn't remove the caffeine.

120
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 1: You're still drinking the same amount of caffeine, you know,

121
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: just as long as you know that. But I will say,

122
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: there's there's a different ratio where you can brew it

123
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: to the to the delution that you like, to the

124
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: parts per you know it parts per centimeter. I don't

125
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: know that you like, that's not you just brewing a

126
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: cup coffee and adding water to it. Like there's a

127
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: way that we can make your ratios to be exactly

128
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: what it is. So that way, like you're still not

129
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: so you're so like now I'm like, but you need

130
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: to taste the be like like you know now you're

131
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: not tasting it, you know what I'm saying. And I'll

132
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: bet you, like if it's the main right, you could

133
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: be tasting it. You mean to be fair, My my

134
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: coffee might have been too strong in the first place,

135
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: Like my teeth would be black when I joined the call,

136
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: like just completely black, and like one time I spilled

137
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: a little bit on the table and it melted through

138
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: it like alien blood. So it might have been it's

139
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: clearly a user error there. Yeah, it sounds like Brian,

140
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: we like to ask our guest, what is something from

141
00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: your search history? All right? So I was searching Orville

142

00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,679
Speaker 1: ever heard in Orville Peck song. Um. I recognized the mask.

146
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: Somebody was giving away a ticket to a show for free,

147
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,600

150
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: You didn't even know it was a single vibe. Yeah,

151
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: it's like Orville almost like see in a way, what

152
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: if it is? Are there any do people have theories

153
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: about this, like who the real Orville Peck is? Or

154
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 1: is it? Probably? This is probably just an artist who's

155
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: deciding to do this to get some droump up some interest.

156
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: I saw one picture and it looked just like a guy.

157
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: You know, who's gonna say, wait, just look like any

158
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: old guys? What you meant? It kind of just looked

159
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: like a guy. Okay, Okay, so we're not yet. There's

160
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: nothing like super Subverse. It's not riff raff the rapper

161
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: out here, you know, what other people think. There's small

162
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,079
Speaker 1: kinds of theories about this. No scar, no scar right

163
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: right not right missing, like a nose which seems to

164
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: be the only facial feature that is is not featured

165
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: well underneath the mask. No eyebrows brown sometimes that that

166
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: looks great. A lot of a lot of people can

167
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: pull off the no eyebrows. So do you think Orville

168
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: Pecky's gonna pull like an Aaliyah like get get the

169
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: get the mystery up up up. They're like, oh, what's

170
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: going on behind the mask, What's what the mask? What's

171
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: going on? And then take it off and then be

172
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: like nothing was wrong. Y'all that do that with their bangs,

173
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 1: were their glasses. Everyone she was always wearing glasses covered

174
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: in one eye and everyone's like with her eye, what's

175
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: up with her eye? Remember being a teenager, he always

176
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: been like yo, school Aliah's eye And then she's unspeakably

177
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: like all the time, what do you want? Or maybe

178
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: he's got terrible face tattoos. Yeah, the eyebrows is an

179
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: interesting theory because it is so it's like a lone

180
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 1: ranger mask with like a fringe hanging off of it,

181
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: so like that I could see that as like compensation

182
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: for a lack of eyebrows, you know, like he's trying

183
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 1: to I'm seeing some I'm seeing some eyebrows peeking through

184
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,719
Speaker 1: on some of these other shots. Yeah, but like it,

185
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: like you would do oh fake eyebrows to be part

186
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: of the mask? Yes, thank you? Okay, Like whoa, maybe

187
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 1: he just wants you to envision whatever you want it. Yeah,

188
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 1: every want him to be it is brilliant marketing shows

189
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: incredible restraint, you know, and like foresight to be like,

190
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 1: all right, so I'm about to become famous and I'm

191
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 1: gonna make it so that there is not a trace

192
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: of my face on the internet. Could I do this

193
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: for a comedy? That would be incredible? Anyone? Does anyone

194
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: do that? Right now? No, I'll do it? Yeah, has

195
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: anyone ever done it? There's the masked rapper, right, I mean, yeah,

196
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: we got M F. Doom. I mean I think I'm

197
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: I'm not doing was one of our most famous masked rappers? Yeah,

198
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: and what cool? Keith used to wear a mask too,

199
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: I think so, I think that's right ghost face originally,

200
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: but but he wasn't really like hiding his face like that.

201
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 1: But that was the that was the origin right legendarily

202
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: apparently probably apocryphal, but ghost Face was wearing a mask

203
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: because he was wanted at the at their first show,

204
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: and that's how how he became ghost Face. What came

205
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: for his ghost Face the Rapper, a ghost Face the

206
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: Killer and Scream the Rapper. Yeah, yeah, so you might

207
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: have a case, Yeah you might. You might have to

208
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: sue Dimension Films. I mean, we should talk about the

209
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 1: fact that the Kendrick album dropped. I mean, we've kind

210
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,199
Speaker 1: of referenced already. It's a lot is a double album

211
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: at a time when that just means, you know, it

212
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: doesn't mean two discs so much as it means a

213
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: lot of songs and the track numbering starts over halfway through.

214
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: That seems incredible upon first listen, and I'm only halfway

215
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: through it. It's a lot to get through. But then

216
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: Radiohead dropped a new album on the same day, kind

217
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 1: of There's a band called The Smile that is Tom York,

218
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 1: Johnny Greenwood, and one other member of Radiohead, and it

219
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: sounds like a Radiohead album. It sounds like I've only

220
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: listened to a couple of songs, but it sounds awesome.

221
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: That's that's a lot. That's weird being showered. Also, my

222
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: chemical Romance dropped in your song yesterday. Yeah and then

223
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 1: isn't It's not like another Tailor's Shift album coming out,

224
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: because like I feel like music Twitter is like it's

225
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: so many camps are like you either mc MCR, Taylor

226
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 1: Swift or The Smile Slash Kendrick. There's like so many

227
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 1: verticals for parts of Twitter. They're like, it's the best

228
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: music time ever right now? Yeah, Summer, Who do you

229
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: think is gonna have songs of summer? Taylorville? Who knows?

230
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: Orville Peck Orville Pack. Yeah, let's say it right now.

231
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: Orville Peck's coming out with something nothing like a leather

232
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: fringed mask that says, you know, Layton Summer. Do you

233
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 1: think his mask just stinks or he's always got a

234
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: new one. I feel like there's a lot of masks. Yeah, Okay,

235
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: it's not smelling like a mascot in there, I'm sure, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

236
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 1: although probably after like a long live show, I'm sure

237
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: it smells a little bit like, you know, beer and sweat.

238
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 1: I'm surprised he doesn't get Hella styes, right, well that

239
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:02,439
Speaker 1: maybe maybe he he stops wearing the mask and they're like,

240
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: did you finally decided to share your face with us?

241
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: Horrible nom? I was getting terrible sties. My my optomics

242
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: said I have to take it off where I could

243
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: do serious damage to my vision. So constantly it's like

244
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 1: it's easy to find out who Orrible is because he

245
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: has it's the guy with the stye right and the

246
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: really specific tan line on it. Hey are you horrible? No?

247
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: I'm not, man, can you leave me alone? Okay, just

248
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: so I was flew to New York to get eye surgery.

249
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: I speaking of sties. Whenever I was in New York.

250
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: It was the only time I ever, like really on

251
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: a regular basis, got sties because I think it was

252
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: just you know, public transit and just the touch of

253
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: my eyes. I do I do like to give butterfly

254
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: kisses to every you know, hand holding spot on a

255
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: subway train, So that could have been the issue. But okay, yeah,

256
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 1: that was probably. I feel like there's a lot of

257
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: lot of stuff in the gets in your eyes and

258
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: why and why is it easy to get a sign

259
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: in your eye? Let us know or don't you know? Yeah? Twitter?

260
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: And yeah, maybe it was an aside that I shouldn't

261
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: have even brought up. But you know, it's yeah, like, dude,

262
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: you're touching your eyes too much. I know, clearly. But

263
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: then when I got out to l A, I didn't

264
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: get any sties. So there you go. Yeah, what what

265
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: is something you think is overrated? So this is a

266
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: little bit of a complicated answer. I so I love

267
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: our culture's recent fascination with cults and cons and all

268
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: of the documentaries and documentary series on on Netflix and

269
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: the other platforms that are focused on on these criminals.

270
00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: But I think the documentary series are overrated and way

271
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: too long, and I wish that they would all just

272
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: be movies, like dramatic feature films. You mean, no, even

273
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: if it's a documentary, just yea, just condense it into

274
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: ninety minutes and tell us the story. I feel like

275
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: it doesn't need to be a series, and they they've

276
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: gotten too too long. And I watched a really good

277
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: one that that's you know, probably ninety minutes, and it

278
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: it like really helped me realize how long the other

279
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: ones are. I watched Our Father, which is about this doctor,

280
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: this fertility doctor who swapped out his sperm and fathered.

281
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 1: I won't say the number because then it's kind of

282
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: a spoiler. But he fathered all of these children, and

283
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: he even swapped out the sperm of like his best

284
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: friend and and and used his instead, and it's like

285
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: it's insane. In the beginning, I was watching it and

286
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: I was like like, is this so bad? Like how

287
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: is this gonna get interesting? And then it's like got

288
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 1: totally crazy. And the craziest part about it is that

289
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 1: this all took place in Indiana and in the end

290
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 1: he wasn't really convicted of a crime and him and

291
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: his best friend are still tight to this day. There

292
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: the water under the Bridge. Yeah, wow, Yeah. I was

293
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: watching that other documentary about that guy in the UK

294
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 1: who was like convincing all those people that they were

295
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: like on the run from like am I like from

296
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 1: m I five because they were caught up in ship?

297
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 1: Do you know that documentary? I forget what it's called.

298
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: It's it's another one where like the premises really interesting,

299
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 1: but it's like, yo, this is it's like fucking four episodes.

300
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 1: I feel like you could have told me the whole

301
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,120
Speaker 1: thing in like two hours, probably, But yeah, I do.

302
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 1: I do find myself being like, okay, you found that

303
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: This is a way to stretch people's viewing time a lot,

304
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 1: because I think they realize, oh, like we've got like

305
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: a you know, lost type cliffhanger ending sort of pattern.

306
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: We can get people in to where it's like, oh

307
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: and you gotta you gotta watch the next one now

308
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 1: to learn who the detective is. That's gonna look into

309
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: it because that's a whole episode. And yeah, it gets

310
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 1: a little tiring for sure. I love this overrated. I

311
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 1: think that's right. I think that the default should be

312
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 1: docuseries and then like if necessary, like the Staircase. Probably

313
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: I think earned it's it's a long running time, even

314
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 1: though I only watched like three of them and then

315
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 1: got bored. But it does seem like it's very twisty,

316
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: turney and they were learning things other went. But for

317
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 1: the most part, yeah, don't don't stretch it. And albums too,

318
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: Like albums don't need to be as long as they are,

319
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:47,120
Speaker 1: and movies make movies, all right, People got people got

320
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: naps to take. You know, we went from two to

321
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: now forty five minutes. What's something you think is underrated?

322
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: This feels very specific to me, But since it's summer,

323
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if I got this wrong, I apologized,

324
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: but something that I think is underrated. So I'm a

325
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: big snow cone guy, and I think, listen, no one

326
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: has ever agreed with me, and neither will you. I

327
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: like a plain snow cone. That's not a thing. That's

328
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 1: just what. Sometimes you just need texture and and and temperature,

329
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 1: and you don't need taste. Sometimes I'm mature. Okay, so

330
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: I'm mature right people chewing gum after it's lost its flavor? No, yes,

331
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 1: So for me, a a a snow cone, it's just like, oh,

332
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 1: I'm consuming water in a new fun way. I get

333
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: to feel the coldness. I get to feel the melt.

334
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 1: I love the feeling of the melt, and then the

335
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 1: little slashy part at the bottom. I always get it,

336
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: and I can slushy. It's but it's not just ice,

337
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 1: it's not just water. And I can see every snow

338
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 1: cone person I've ever asked. They go, they go, they say,

339
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 1: what play? Right? Say, oh, just playing? And they go

340
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,679
Speaker 1: they act like I said, can you shove it up?

341
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 1: My ask like they look like I said something so obscene,

342
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 1: And and then I go to pay and they go,

343
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: you can pay whatever you want because I didn't get

344
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,679
Speaker 1: the one thing right. They're like you, all right, you

345
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: know this is it's on the house man. But that

346
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 1: tool that they used to cut the ice, it's very

347
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 1: expensive and I don't have blocks of ice at home,

348
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: so I can't make this on my own. Really, I

349
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: love it and you should all try it if you

350
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: want a nice healthy snack. That just makes that just

351
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 1: like textures, so underrated, in fact, not even rated it

352
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: at all, because no one's even given it a shot. Okay,

353
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,239
Speaker 1: a couple of things here. One, they do make icy

354
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 1: machines for your children, so if you want to get one,

355
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,479
Speaker 1: so they have to go to the guy and get

356
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: the judgment every time you order the icy goone. You

357
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: could just make it in your heart a little shaped.

358
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 1: It's cute. I think they're like thirty dollars. The second

359
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: when you have red or blue, and I feel like

360
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: it's kind of a quintessential, Like it's not even flavored.

361
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,360
Speaker 1: They ask you what color you want when you get icy?

362
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: What when did the plane? I see, I have to

363
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,439
Speaker 1: like deconstruct your childhood now because wasn't do something terrible

364
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 1: happened and then you were like no flavors exciting. Yeah,

365
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: it's snow coades. This snow coat. Listen, last the terrible

366
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 1: things happen. I don't know what relates to the snow cooked,

367
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 1: but but it really did start like I didn't all

368
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 1: the flavors were too sweet for me. I just didn't

369
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 1: like flavors. I don't know what it was. And so

370
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 1: I one day I got for a child's palate even

371
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: for some reason I like some sweet things, but something

372
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 1: about that that I didn't like it. And U sometimes

373
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: they have melted or condensed milk on a plain snow cone. God,

374
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 1: is there anything better on this earth? This sounds like

375
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 1: a treat my grandmother would have been like. Now it's

376
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: back in the day. Really exactly chips for dessert, if

377
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: we were good chips. They're delicious. That's that's so good.

378
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 1: Just try it once. I will. And because I have

379
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 1: eaten bare snow off the ground before, it's amazing. It

380
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: tastes so good. Yeah, I mean, once you get the

381
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: asphalt stuff off of it, whatever it's it's pretty exactly tasty.

382
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: But I kind of half understand. There's this thing in

383
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: in Japan, right shave ice is a big thing. You

384
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 1: call it pretty goody out there and like Joel, like

385
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 1: you're saying, there are little machines you can buy that

386
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 1: you can like just manually crank and you'll get really

387
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: good shaved ice and you can then flavor it however

388
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: you want. So if you're into that thin shaved ice

389
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: actually just doing that, you can freeze your own little

390
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,959
Speaker 1: water disks and then just grind them out on your

391
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: own and you got exactly what you're talking about. But

392
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: there's also this other Japanese like confection thing that they have,

393
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: like that they sell in the freezer aisle. I think

394
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: it's called ice box, and it's a little cup with

395
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,959
Speaker 1: little chunks of ice, but they're lightly flayed first, like

396
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 1: very lightly flavored, like grapefruit ish flavor, like sweet. And

397
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,239
Speaker 1: that's a fun thing because when it's hot, it's like

398
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: eating ice cubes that have a little bit of sweetness

399
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 1: to it. So it's kind of splitting the difference between

400
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: what you're talking about. And I get the appeal of

401
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: something like slightly simple, but when it's hot, like there's

402
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,880
Speaker 1: something really enjoyable about union eyes. But if I'm getting

403
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 1: the snow one, you know, I'm going I'm going up.

404
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: It's just it's red or it's tiger blood or whatever.

405
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 1: The flavors they got that red in that orange that's

406
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 1: but hey to eat obviously, like a pur fall mixed

407
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:41,880
Speaker 1: the red and blue. You are you like purple? Absolutely? Okay? Everything?

408
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,439
Speaker 1: Well everything. That's how little we know about these flavors.

409
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 1: We keep calling them colors all they are. They taste

410
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: the same, except when you close your eyes and you're like, no,

411
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 1: this is definitely a purple. Yeah. Well it's because they

412
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 1: don't mimic anything that's actually natural, you know what I mean. Like,

413
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: I ain't never taste a cherry that tasted like what

414
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: was told to me is cherry flavor sup red? Fuck it?

415
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: I want red, Give me red, give me blue. I

416
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: don't give a ship as long as it's sugar good.

417
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break. We'll try some

418
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: plain ice and we'll be right back. And we're back

419
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 1: and full disclosure. We were talking about the Kendrick album

420
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:32,199
Speaker 1: over the break. I think we're all on board. I'm

421
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,400
Speaker 1: taking it. Takes a little while. I get to after

422
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 1: I dropped the kids off, I get to like dig in,

423
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: but they're they're still on there, uh, you know, trying

424
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 1: to think what what their favorite song is right now,

425
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 1: but they're they're back to after having a brief dalliance

426
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: with the new Push album, they're back to wanting to

427
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: listen to just very basic pop music and that they're over.

428
00:24:53,960 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, hopefully you don't have nin your kids in

429
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,160
Speaker 1: your house. No, we don't have ninjy kids yet. Good yeah,

430
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: thank god. So, like, his albums take me a long time.

431
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: All albums take me a long time, but like I

432
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: feel like I'm the first two songs are now like

433
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 1: fully in my blood and are incredible. I feel like

434
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 1: I can confidently said, yeah, yeah, I approach his work

435
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 1: like well any mostly most hip hop stuff, but I

436
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 1: approach his work from like three different positions. There's just

437
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,640
Speaker 1: me as a fan of hip hop, doesn't me as

438
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 1: like an l a native also, and then there's me

439
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 1: as a also a professional rapper. You know, so there's

440
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 1: like so like you. For me, it's like I'll listen

441
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: straight through top to bottom twice, you know, and then

442
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: go back and be like all right, let's go one

443
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: by one. So it takes me a while too, but

444
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: like you know, and then there's the and it's something

445
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: it's like it seems absurd, but like, you know, if

446
00:25:54,560 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 1: you're talking about one of the three most large as

447
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: artists in the world, you know that you still have

448
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 1: a competitive streak about like I probably would have done

449
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 1: it like this, say it and it's absurd to say it,

450
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 1: but it's like you're still the competitive part about you. Like,

451
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,680
Speaker 1: damn it, he said that way better than I would have. Right,

452
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 1: how does he do it? Damn it? All right, I'm

453
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,360
Speaker 1: taking I'm going a seminar with that cart tolling. Now

454
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: it seems like that's the secret of the I mean

455
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: when I listen to that, I'm like, Wow, you sound

456
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 1: like me when I graduated college and I got the

457
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: power of now for the first time, I'm like, are

458
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,639
Speaker 1: y'all reading this ship? Yeah? That's you know what's funny.

459
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 1: It's crazy because like I'm here at this record label,

460
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 1: like we were all talking about the idea that like

461
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 1: he he sounds thirty five, which is what he is,

462
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 1: which is perfect. But it's like somebody who just discovered

463
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: that you were full of ship. I'm saying, yeah, yeah,

464
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,439
Speaker 1: and we all remember the day we discovered we were

465
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: full of ship, and like you said, were you just like,

466
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: oh my god, right, you need therapy. Hey, guys, did

467
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: you know you need a therapy? And we're like, yeah,

468
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 1: we know, but it's cool to hear him, to hear

469
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,120
Speaker 1: him get to the moment to be like, yeah, man,

470
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: you got a young brother. You know what I'm saying.

471
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: We know. You know what if that person who was saying,

472
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: oh my god, you guys, we need therapy was a

473
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 1: once in a generation genius, Yeah, then it's that yeah, yeah, yeah,

474
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: whose creative abilities far surpasses any other human own the

475
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: planet right now? Yeah, alright, let's let's talk about you know,

476
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 1: there was a terrorist attack mass murder in Buffalo over

477
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: the weekend by a white supremacist who you know, the

478
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: first thing they cited was also the same thing the

479
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 1: first thing the Pittsburgh synagogue shooter cited. Also the first

480
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: thing the l Paso Walmart shooter cited, which is, uh,

481
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: this replacement theory, which is now like a we we

482
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,120
Speaker 1: have to have a name that sounds serious around this ship.

483
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: That is just straight up white supremacy and wait, people

484
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 1: are should be left to rule without any anybody around,

485
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: like they should be protected by laws and if they're not,

486
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: they're going to murder people. Essentially. Yeah, yeah, it's I'm

487
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 1: I'm curious so many things. I'm curious if the Democrats

488
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: use this again, like another thing where they're like, well,

489
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 1: at least we're not them, and not offer any solution. Yeah, yeah,

490
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: you know, or if we're going to see I mean,

491
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: we've already seen conservatives double down there. There's some Republicans

492
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 1: who are already saying things like this was a false

493
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 1: flag event, you know, put together by you know who,

494
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: George Soros type ship, and continuing to try and you know,

495
00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 1: pretend that there is no there there um. But I

496
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 1: mean yeah, as it stands, I'm like mmmmmmm um. Like

497
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: I you know, Dick Durbin said, you know, like we

498
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: need we need increased gun control, and I'm like, yeah,

499
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 1: that's true, But are we I'm talking, are we talking

500
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:14,239
Speaker 1: about the real engines that's driving this violence to like

501
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 1: guns or guns make like the problem worse because that's

502
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: the environment that these people are in where they have

503
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: access to guns. But these people, where they are turning

504
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: is from their radicalization, whether that starts at home or

505
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: online or whatever. But this is white supremacist terror. And

506
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: I think the lone wolf ship. I'm tired of hearing

507
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 1: that there's like there's a total media, you know, ecosystem

508
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: for these people to like learn from each other, get radicalized,

509
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: shareship with each other. It's just a very thin, disingenuous

510
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 1: like description of this problem that is just clear as day. Yeah,

511
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 1: I mean there's there's the like the the the parts

512
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: of this story that I've been like kind of avoiding

513
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 1: for like my own rate each in the sense of like, yeah, yeah,

514
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: like being being a violent like white man. Somehow it's

515
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 1: there's a force field around your body, like you're just

516
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 1: nothing can never happen to you. Like the idea that

517
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: like this man, this man told the internet what he

518
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 1: was gonna do, wrote it down on the paper and

519
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: then drew on his gun and then live stream the

520
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: thing and somehow another there's still a question about this

521
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 1: man's motives and the fact that he that he didn't

522
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: get shot on site like this, like you you have

523
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: a your you're a mutant, like you have a force

524
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: field like that? Why are you not how are you

525
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: able to actually be brought to justice? So I'm like

526
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 1: avoiding that part because it's it's frustrating, you know what

527
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But I think you know the history of

528
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: like what it meant, you know, all the way back

529
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: to the sixties and seventies of of this movement being

530
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: like we're gonna it's gonna be a leaderless movement, totally decentralized,

531
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 1: like there's no main figure, so that as we enter,

532
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: you know, act out these things, we all seem like

533
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 1: lone wolves because you can't track how we've been talking

534
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: to each other. The only problem is we could track

535
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 1: how you've been talking to each other, and the and

536
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: that we know that this was your plan, right, not

537
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: only that I'm like it the replacement theory stuff, Like

538
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: the part that frustrates me about the media is like,

539
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: is the idea that like y'all acting like this ship

540
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: is new, Like they haven't been telling us this is

541
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: the way they felt for a long time, you know

542
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And that when people when the experts

543
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 1: were ringing the ringing the alarms way back in two

544
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 1: thousand fourteen, two thousand fifteen, two thousand sixte and being like, hey, listen,

545
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 1: we're not headed for a civil war, We're already in one.

546
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 1: They're at war, don't you understand, Like they're at they

547
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: are believed they are at war. And this was just yeah,

548
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: listen to how they talk. That's what you're trying to

549
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 1: tell you. He telling you he had war because you

550
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,479
Speaker 1: think you have a fear of becoming a minority. And

551
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 1: it's like and you you're also revealing your cards, which

552
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: we already know who you are, because it's like, well,

553
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: what's so bad about being a minority. Well, it's because

554
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 1: you're assuming that the majority is gonna treat you the

555
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 1: way you treated minorities, you know what I'm saying, So like,

556
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 1: that's why you'll want to be one. So I'm like, uh,

557
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 1: like the why y'all acting like y'all I know this

558
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 1: is y'are acting like y'all didn't know? Like how you

559
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: acting like you so surprised about this, you know, because

560
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: there's this thing of like never wanting to talk about it.

561
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't n till the summer when the

562
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: media was like white supremacy like out loud. You know,

563
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 1: it's like, wow, that fucking took decades to normalize the

564
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: use of that term is always racially charged or all

565
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 1: this euphemistic bullshit, And you know, now it's like we're

566
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 1: another thing that they were unable to the media is

567
00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: unable to say white supremacist terror and if I'm them

568
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 1: and if I'm if I'm those dudes, I'm frustrated. I'm like, fam,

569
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: we keep telling you where we stand, right, Like we're

570
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: telling you exactly what we think. What is y'all's what

571
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 1: is y'all's questions? Just what we out here do it?

572
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 1: I wrote it a live streamed it. What is your question? Right?

573
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: It's and that's I'm like, you know, that's I'm curious

574
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 1: to see what happens with the tone of like talking

575
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 1: about you know, Liz Cheney, right, who's a Republican who's

576
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 1: been outsted by her party, but she decided to take

577
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 1: the same approach, or at least the human one to

578
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 1: be like, man, this is a real problem within the

579
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: party has to be discussed, like this is there's too

580
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: much anti semitism, anti black race, and just all kinds

581
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 1: of senophobia. It's bad. But I don't see the Republicans

582
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 1: haven't take any interest in this and trying to, you know,

583
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: say you know what, this is bad? This is this

584
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 1: the rhetoric that comes out of people in the party here,

585
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 1: from people on Fox News, it's contributing to this environment

586
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: because the message that's being sent to white voters or

587
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: white people who you know, or conservatives are hearing, Oh

588
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 1: you see whether the immigrants are coming. That's where the bus,

589
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: where the baby formulas gone. That's why you don't have

590
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 1: a job. That's why the factory shut down. It's that

591
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: just feeding on itself. And there's something really interesting on MSNBC.

592
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: There's this guy who was a m Brendan Buck. He

593
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 1: was an adviser to both speakers Ryan and Bayner, right

594
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 1: GOP Speakers of the House, and he basically said, you

595
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: know when he was asked like, you know, what's the what,

596
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 1: what's what do the Republicans have to do here? Like

597
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: what do they need to do to start getting things together,

598
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 1: to start cleaning up the House. And he said, it's

599
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,399
Speaker 1: kind of tough. And he said something that I don't

600
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: think he realized how like honest it sounded. But he said,

601
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,240
Speaker 1: you know, Republicans, they don't want to go after anybody

602
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: else except Republicans. And when you do that, you can't

603
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 1: afford to lose the racist vote. You just can't. Oh

604
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 1: you can't. And he said it in a way that

605
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 1: was like pained or whatever. But I was like, yeah,

606
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: that's who said, literally, huh, Brendan Buck, he's an advisor.

607
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,720
Speaker 1: He was an adviser to Speaker the House John Bayner

608
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,720
Speaker 1: and Tim Ryan. So Republicans speaks like that's whose office

609
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 1: he was in, and he just said, that's the problem

610
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 1: with where the Republicans are going. They don't care about

611
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 1: independence or trying to bring anybody else in. So all

612
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 1: they have to do, and this is what we talked about,

613
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 1: these have to double down on the racism because they

614
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 1: cannot have that. That's money on the table to them,

615
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 1: because the policies are a certain way. That's why you

616
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,439
Speaker 1: always hear them having to mainstream this ship like whether

617
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 1: it's at least deponic who is a Member of the

618
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 1: House from New York who on Friday was saying the

619
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 1: same ship, great replacement theory type nonsense about they're just

620
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: they're you know, that's there. They've got a silent revolution happening,

621
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: Joe Biden where all the immigrants are going to come

622
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 1: in and that's who's going to be voting that that's

623
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,800
Speaker 1: what America is going to be. Without using the words,

624
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 1: but you know that, like looking at all of that,

625
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 1: it's very difficult. Like Republicans aren't going to touch it.

626
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 1: And now at this point, I feel like the way

627
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 1: the media should write about them be considering the rhetoric

628
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 1: that comes out of there is like, you know, this

629
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: is a group that's you know that is a openly

630
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:17,760
Speaker 1: supports domestic terror. Yeah, there's nothing about what they're talking about.

631
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: From what I'm looking from congress people or senators or

632
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 1: state senators or local legislators. You know, they're they're saying

633
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: straight up neo nazi bullshit. All right, let's talk about

634
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: Jesse Waters. The Jesse Waters Show Must watch TV if

635
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:36,439
Speaker 1: you just want to feel your life just led out

636
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,400
Speaker 1: of you, your will to live, just a true piece

637
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 1: of ship. I remember, like the first time I saw

638
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 1: this motherfucker on TV, he was like Bill O'Reilly's like

639
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: intern and I was just like, oh, this motherfucker is

640
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,719
Speaker 1: going to be a problem, Like right away he just

641
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 1: so confident and so dumb and yeah, sure of his racist,

642
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 1: horrifying worldview, but he waited on critical race theory as

643
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: he just want to do. Yeah, um, first off, got

644
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 1: it again for everyone knows this, but the disclaimer that

645
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 1: critical race theory is not being taught anywhere outside of

646
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 1: a college lecture hall so let's put that on the side. Now.

647
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 1: If you're just mad that teachers are talking about just

648
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 1: general inequality and you just want to call that this

649
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 1: other thing, man, find you know, to do your thing. Um.

650
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: But in this Jesse Waters clip that was just going

651
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 1: around on Twitter, it's one of the more like pathetic

652
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 1: appearances I've seen from like a concerned parent quote unquote

653
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 1: who's like, I'm here to help you know further. This

654
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 1: narrative that you want to keep broadcasting on your television,

655
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: which is critical race theory, is ruining my child. And

656
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 1: in this clip, there's a concerned mother from Virginia of

657
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 1: a biracial child who she the mother is white, the

658
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 1: father is black, and she is in a state of

659
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: utter shock because her fourteen year old son is starting

660
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 1: to form an identity at fourteen. I don't know what's

661
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: going on here, Jesse. Is it this critical race theory

662
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,359
Speaker 1: stuff or is it puberty? I don't know, but I'm

663
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 1: gonna say critical race theory and let's just listen in

664
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 1: because it's uh yeah, just just hold onto your butt.

665
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,280
Speaker 1: Your your son is uh the father's black, you're white

666
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 1: and he had never mentioned issues with race before. You're saying,

667
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: what exactly changed? Right, we didn't have issues before. He's

668
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: in eighth grade. They introduced this critical um program, and

669
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 1: now he's having racial issues there before. What kind of

670
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: racial issues is he have? Well, he's seen himself just

671
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: as a black man. He's seeing things that don't go

672
00:38:56,480 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 1: his way as racism, um, and he's fine in safety

673
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 1: and numbers. Now, so what you're saying, he gets a

674
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,280
Speaker 1: bad grade at school, he blames racism, or a girl

675
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: rejects them on a date racism? Are those kind of

676
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 1: things you're seeing? She's smiling. Yes, I asked him to

677
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 1: clean the house. Racism. Yeah, you're kidding, right, Are you serious? No,

678
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: I'm serious. They have totally changed his perspective. They have

679
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 1: put him in a box. M hmmm mmm. So your

680
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: fourteen year old son is talking back, yeah, m hmm.

681
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 1: And again that that's never happened before. That's weird that

682
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 1: a teenage some would talk back to their to your mom,

683
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,439
Speaker 1: who told you to clean your room? I've never done

684
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,320
Speaker 1: I remember when my mother said that as a half black,

685
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 1: biracial child. I didn't say that. I didn't say it

686
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: was racism. I just said I don't want to do it.

687
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:50,799
Speaker 1: Mom and I run out the house, but we didn't

688
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 1: have the same vocabulary to use, I guess as these

689
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: kids do. But then also, man, you are a racist.

690
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,479
Speaker 1: So he's right when you when you just uh when

691
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 1: he says the it's racism, but not when other parents

692
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:09,240
Speaker 1: ask their kids, but you are racist and give some issues.

693
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 1: The program that he was participating in was one that

694
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: was around encouraging students to have open discussions around RAI

695
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 1: race now. And this was in the like aftermath of

696
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: the George Floyd murder. So they're like, we want to

697
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:24,959
Speaker 1: have you know, brave conversations about race. So it wasn't

698
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,959
Speaker 1: something like kill your master's type ship. They were just saying, hey,

699
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: we want these young people, we want to facilitate, you know,

700
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 1: healthy conversations so these young people can begin to have

701
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: a reckoning with our country's culture of discrimination. Pretty easy

702
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: stuff like it's not again not in the extreme that

703
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 1: this woman is sort of making out to be and

704
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 1: naturally like everything we see the backlash of it and

705
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 1: time and again, and so a couple of things. You know,

706
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 1: he's this kid is fourteen, So the little baby that

707
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,360
Speaker 1: you were used to like, you know, is absolutely in

708
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 1: the period of their life where these questions are being asked, right,

709
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,760
Speaker 1: you begin to explore who you are, what that means

710
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,320
Speaker 1: to you, what's your own identity, is what race means

711
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 1: to you? You know what she I think she may

712
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 1: consider her son, I think half white, and she looks

713
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 1: at it that way, but he is also half black,

714
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 1: and I'd imagine he isn't completely white passing. So he like,

715
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 1: even though she may see her son is this, the

716
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 1: rest of the world does not. That's just that's just

717
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: the facts, And there's no matter. There's no amount of

718
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 1: proper speaking I could do or polo shirt wearing I

719
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,359
Speaker 1: could do to suddenly look different to somebody who has

720
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: a bigoted perspective on race. That's just unfortunately the stakes

721
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,880
Speaker 1: of how you know it means to be not white

722
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,040
Speaker 1: in this country. So there's just kind of this whole

723
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 1: thing where I'm like, do you even I'm curious that

724
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 1: this mom clearly is probably very disconnected from the idea

725
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: that what it means to raise a black child in

726
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 1: in Virginia even and what all of that means just

727
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,520
Speaker 1: in America in general. And that's when I'm like, Jesus,

728
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 1: we just watched you come out here and use your

729
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,399
Speaker 1: son as like a fucking pond in an optics when

730
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 1: for bigots like what the fund was? That that's where

731
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 1: I'm like, really, it's disheartening for me to see that

732
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 1: about like, Wow, you really have no idea what your

733
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 1: son is about to go through or is going through, right,

734
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 1: because you're like, I don't she referenced like he was

735
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: never having racial issues. M h yeah. I mean even

736
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:26,400
Speaker 1: if your classmates aren't bigoted, you know, outwardly, there'sn't. The

737
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,760
Speaker 1: fact of the matter is he's existing in a country

738
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 1: that is sending a lot of signals to him, and

739
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:34,320
Speaker 1: he's probably beginning to see when you say he's finding

740
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: comfort in numbers or something like that, what the fund

741
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:39,760
Speaker 1: does that mean that he's hanging out with other black kids?

742
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 1: Is that wrong? Ye? That that was weird, And also

743
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 1: like the insistence that you know, a time where people

744
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:56,040
Speaker 1: are wrestling with just systemic and like murderous, like violent

745
00:42:56,200 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 1: racism in the country, that his response to that would

746
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: be first of all, like incorrect for him to like

747
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:08,359
Speaker 1: have feelings about that, but also that it would be

748
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: like the school's fault and not the fault of like

749
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,880
Speaker 1: what what is actually happening the reality like that's it

750
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,359
Speaker 1: just assumes that there's no such thing as racism, So

751
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 1: like they must be getting this idea from school because

752
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,879
Speaker 1: that's the only place they could have learned. It is

753
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 1: a very blinded perspective. Yeah, and he's fourteen, so it's

754
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 1: not like he's first discovering his identity. Now. This has

755
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 1: been a process and he probably just never felt comfortable

756
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 1: speaking with her about it because of the environment that

757
00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 1: she created. Like, if you think that people start discovering

758
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,359
Speaker 1: who they are and forming an identity at fourteen, that's

759
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,760
Speaker 1: not the case either. I don't I feel like whatever

760
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 1: was going on at school maybe finally made him comfortable

761
00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:59,319
Speaker 1: to say something to his mom about it. But I

762
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,919
Speaker 1: also like, I don't understand how they always have these

763
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 1: parents on roster to speak on these shows where I mean,

764
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure they find them on Facebook now, but they've

765
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 1: always had disgruntled parents just ready to go on all

766
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 1: of these shows about whatever the topic might be. But

767
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 1: it's so crazy to me. It's typically like these law

768
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 1: firms will look for aggrieved parents so they can represent

769
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: them in a lawsuit, and that's kind of how they

770
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 1: end up to that next level where the Fox producers

771
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 1: end up saying, oh, like okay, like you know, like,

772
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,239
Speaker 1: hey man, we got this. Mom. She's suing the State

773
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 1: of Virginia for critical race theory because like her, her

774
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: son who is black now realizing he's black. So that's

775
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:42,760
Speaker 1: that's pretty that's all kinds of sucked up, right, that's

776
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 1: because I'm sure I'm pretty sure that was sort of

777
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,840
Speaker 1: like the segue or the introduction to this pieces that

778
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 1: she's suing, you know, on behalf of her son or

779
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:55,040
Speaker 1: her her own rights as a parent. But yeah, the

780
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 1: it's it's really disheartening to see a parent like that.

781
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,240
Speaker 1: Who you She even said, she's like he sees himself

782
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:06,879
Speaker 1: as a black man. Mm hmmm, I'm sorry. What can

783
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,359
Speaker 1: we can we unpack that a little bit? Like from

784
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,120
Speaker 1: your perspective, miss, what does that mean? And what is

785
00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 1: wrong with it? He is he not? And in your

786
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 1: mind are you telling him he is not? Is that

787
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,880
Speaker 1: why you're upset? Because you've been conditioning him to deny

788
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 1: that he's black and that he's living in some post

789
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 1: racial like utopia that actually doesn't exist. I'm That's what

790
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 1: I'm really curious about, Like it really feels like my

791
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: son was not black before this, And there's also like

792
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,840
Speaker 1: a patron like there are parts where she's like grinning

793
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 1: and laughing and like, like you said, it's a parent

794
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:44,919
Speaker 1: who is having a difficult time getting their mind around

795
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 1: the fact that it's that's not your like eight year

796
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:52,840
Speaker 1: old child anymore and they are like growing up. But

797
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:56,560
Speaker 1: like that just that is so fucking toxic. And yeah,

798
00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 1: or I don't know if maybe she's completely scared the

799
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 1: idea that, oh my god, that's right, my son is

800
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 1: black and he's living in America in two and subconsciously

801
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: that's making you uncomfortable. It's coming out this way. I

802
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 1: don't know. That might be an overly charitable, you know,

803
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,399
Speaker 1: analysis of where she's coming from. But you know, it's

804
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,279
Speaker 1: clear that she was not thinking about this at all

805
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:23,040
Speaker 1: until her son was, you know, probably articulating things where

806
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: he was like, I'm identify I can I see my

807
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 1: blackness and I see how people like me or treated

808
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:31,759
Speaker 1: in this country. It hurts me because that is me.

809
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 1: I am part of this group of people. And yeah,

810
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 1: now I'm realizing how much how much things I may

811
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:42,399
Speaker 1: be ignored up until fourteen that now I'm realizing we're

812
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 1: actually pretty fucked up. But you always told me, don't

813
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,480
Speaker 1: worry about it, don't worry about it, don't worry about it.

814
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 1: But it gets to a point where you actually you

815
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 1: can't ignore that anymore. And I think you credit to

816
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,799
Speaker 1: him on his journey figuring out who he is and

817
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 1: you know, the the culture that he's part of. But wow,

818
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 1: what a shitty mom. Yeah, yeah, you already think your

819
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:07,839
Speaker 1: parents are the worst when you're fourteen, even when they're not.

820
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,280
Speaker 1: But when you do have the worst mom in America,

821
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,480
Speaker 1: that's that's gonna be tough. I'm this poor kid is

822
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,879
Speaker 1: probably getting flame. They're like, yo, is that your mom

823
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:21,040
Speaker 1: on Twitter? I saw on that Jesse Waters clip and

824
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:25,239
Speaker 1: he's like, bro, I told you that's why. Like I'm just, uh,

825
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 1: it's hard growing up in that house with that mom

826
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:31,839
Speaker 1: or whatever. But that's I can't I can't imagine that

827
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,880
Speaker 1: her appearance there did any good for him either. You know,

828
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 1: I'm not a TV Like the fact is already already

829
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: you're already suing the state or the school district, so already,

830
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:43,680
Speaker 1: Like I remember being in school and you knew when

831
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 1: somebody's parents was like doing some wild ship trying to

832
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 1: like cause a problem at the school, or like like, yo,

833
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,040
Speaker 1: so and So's mom is so in the school because

834
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: the seesaw was like to wobbly and said, that's why

835
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:56,319
Speaker 1: his little sister like heard her wrist and everyone's like

836
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,239
Speaker 1: like people just like that ship gets out in the

837
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 1: ecosystem of the schoolyard. So I can really imagine at

838
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 1: this point you're on Fox News too, that that's probably

839
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:10,000
Speaker 1: not creating more friends for him. No, in my school,

840
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 1: that was always about sex, said, like, we always knew

841
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:17,160
Speaker 1: the students who weren't allowed to take sex, said they

842
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 1: had to go to like study hall or something during

843
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 1: and and I grew up with like basically abstinence only

844
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:27,560
Speaker 1: sex said anyway, but still, and that was because of

845
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 1: parents complaining. But even so, we always knew about the

846
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,080
Speaker 1: parents who were coming up to school and yelling about something,

847
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 1: and it was almost always that, and uh yeah, it

848
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:42,799
Speaker 1: definitely it didn't make it easier for those students, which

849
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 1: I haven't really thought that much about, but they probably were.

850
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:48,080
Speaker 1: So they're probably embarrassed that they weren't allowed to go

851
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 1: to sex and I just didn't really think about it. No.

852
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 1: I went to a Lutheran K through eight school and

853
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,359
Speaker 1: I remember in sex Said, like there were those kids

854
00:48:56,360 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 1: who like absolutely couldn't be there for the outdated slide

855
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: show from the sixties, were like the like female reproductive

856
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,480
Speaker 1: system was like triangles and circles and lines, like not

857
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 1: even close to looking medically accurate, Like like, we've had

858
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:15,439
Speaker 1: this like fucked up, vague version of sex said. Were

859
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:18,360
Speaker 1: like the parts were named, but I couldn't. I couldn't

860
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 1: accurately tell you what anything looked like because it was

861
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:22,840
Speaker 1: like and then there's uterus and also, guys, it doesn't

862
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 1: matter because y'all shouldn't be having sex anyway. Yeah, we

863
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: watched Philadelphia to learn that if you have sex, yo

864
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 1: getting it's God. Yeah. Yeah, and I had I ended

865
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 1: up writing a show about this, and I hosted the

866
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 1: show mostly in New York, but now I've done it

867
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:45,799
Speaker 1: in l A two called adult sex Said. And it's

868
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 1: because I had this sex Said in school and then

869
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,399
Speaker 1: my mom was the opposite. She was actually a sex

870
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 1: said teacher, not mine, but she was, and and we

871
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:55,920
Speaker 1: had this really open home and so I had this

872
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 1: totally missed mixed experience. But I feel like the way

873
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 1: that these parents are being interviewed on TV now about

874
00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:08,000
Speaker 1: critical race theory reminds me a lot of in the

875
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:11,080
Speaker 1: eighties and nineties, they would have parents being interviewed about

876
00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 1: sex said and how that's going to ruin children's minds, right,

877
00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:17,359
Speaker 1: Not that they're not doing that today too, but it's

878
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,520
Speaker 1: like the generational thing. It's like, well, back then they

879
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 1: weren't taught about sex, so then when it comes up,

880
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,120
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, But then parents, now we're like, man,

881
00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 1: we're fine with sex, and like we're so online porn

882
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:30,360
Speaker 1: brained like that, that that chat that being chased idea

883
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:33,840
Speaker 1: isn't necessarily as pervasive. But now it's a generation of

884
00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:36,839
Speaker 1: people who have never had a reckoning with racial relations,

885
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:39,279
Speaker 1: and so that's the thing. It's like, well, I've never

886
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,760
Speaker 1: talked about that, and that ship makes me so fucking scared.

887
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:43,680
Speaker 1: Much like how my parents, who never talked about sex

888
00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 1: or how satisfying sex thought it was the end of

889
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:48,200
Speaker 1: the world if we learned about sex. That It's like,

890
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,399
Speaker 1: now this is the next cycle, which is like, well,

891
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:53,000
Speaker 1: we didn't talk about our race. I don't know if

892
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:57,320
Speaker 1: this is good because it makes me uncomfortable, but yeah,

893
00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:00,359
Speaker 1: it's it's wild to hear because like I we were

894
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 1: constantly just so just don't have sex. I grew up

895
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,040
Speaker 1: with this idea that like, yeah, if if you ever

896
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,759
Speaker 1: had unprotected sex, you're going to get sick and have

897
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 1: a child immediately. Like there's no there's no fucking middle ground.

898
00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:14,239
Speaker 1: And I like through my life, I was like I

899
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:20,240
Speaker 1: was like scared shitless. The movie scene progression is unprotected sex.

900
00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:24,239
Speaker 1: Woman holds stomach and then woman throws up and that's

901
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,359
Speaker 1: those are the three steps to prove the okay, there

902
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 1: there's a pregnancy happening here. Yeah, I will I will

903
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:35,640
Speaker 1: say I I grew up in the wild early nineties,

904
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:40,319
Speaker 1: and sex had really radicalized me. Also really turned me

905
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 1: into a freak. Those medical diagrams I was onto fallopian

906
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:49,359
Speaker 1: tube picks. Those medical diagrams are about as sexy as

907
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:54,200
Speaker 1: like the diarrhea diagram and pepto commercials, Like they're just yeah,

908
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:58,439
Speaker 1: they're just like the human body like and I feel

909
00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 1: like that parents should have been like like for me,

910
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 1: like at the time, a bunch of teenagers like kids

911
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 1: that they're like most sexually curious or just like they're

912
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:08,600
Speaker 1: like even looking at that, like this is so confusing

913
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:10,359
Speaker 1: to me, and I don't think it's doing what you

914
00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:12,920
Speaker 1: think it's gonna cause some perversion in us, or like

915
00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:17,279
Speaker 1: looking again at drawings from the fucking early sixties that

916
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:21,320
Speaker 1: you're putting up on a stupid slide projector and the

917
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:25,120
Speaker 1: and like like the colors are like like not even human.

918
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:28,719
Speaker 1: It's like the uterus is blue and like the ovaries

919
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 1: are green, and you're like, man, this looks like a

920
00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:33,919
Speaker 1: bunch of geometric looks like a Mandreon painting. Let alone

921
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,200
Speaker 1: anything I can have some like functional knowledge of anything. Yeah,

922
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:40,080
Speaker 1: Dare worked, though we do. We can't say Dare worked.

923
00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:42,719
Speaker 1: Oh what was it? Because you know how they're they're

924
00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 1: out in the streets again, Dare. Yeah, that's right. So

925
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:47,480
Speaker 1: I was out and I was out the other day

926
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 1: and they're like, hey, hey, hey, you want to hear

927
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,799
Speaker 1: about Dare. I was like, actually, I do. What's going on?

928
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,480
Speaker 1: Like why are y'all out here? Because it's like I

929
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,760
Speaker 1: thought the drug ship was a wrap, like y'all remember

930
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: y'all lost the drug war and all that. And they're like, yeah,

931
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 1: I mean it's about that too, but it's also a

932
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,680
Speaker 1: lot about mental health now. And we're like, oh, interesting, okay, well,

933
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:08,359
Speaker 1: I don't know what other subversive messaging you might have,

934
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,279
Speaker 1: but that's that was sort of what they're pivoting to. Like, look,

935
00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:13,440
Speaker 1: we get it. We completely lost on the drug front,

936
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:15,000
Speaker 1: but now at least maybe we can be a force

937
00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:18,560
Speaker 1: for good first by the police. I have no idea.

938
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 1: At that point, I was just like, what's that? What

939
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:21,840
Speaker 1: are y'all pivoting to it? They said mental health, and

940
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:25,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, thank you. I have to were they like

941
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 1: high school students? Who were? They look like they look

942
00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,319
Speaker 1: like normal people who are like signature gathering, like you know,

943
00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: like mid twenties, early twenties type people, buzz buzz, haircut,

944
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 1: chewing gum, backwards, had on motorcycle. All right, let's take

945
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:54,800
Speaker 1: a quick break. We'll be right back and we're back.

946
00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:58,360
Speaker 1: Video games have been very important for being throughout my

947
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 1: life outam. I know they're huge part for you, Matt,

948
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,839
Speaker 1: are you? Were you a big child of the game.

949
00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:08,480
Speaker 1: I played video games, um, when I I played PC

950
00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:11,320
Speaker 1: games when I was in high school and college. Uh,

951
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:14,960
Speaker 1: and now I play U PSPs four. There you go.

952
00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:17,399
Speaker 1: So I love I love video games. I love them.

953
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:21,359
Speaker 1: They're great. I play everything, man, I play all the time,

954
00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:24,920
Speaker 1: and I'm still working through Elden ring, which is enormously long.

955
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:28,400
Speaker 1: Um But yeah, I mean I follow video games more

956
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:31,320
Speaker 1: closely than I follow anything else. I listened to probably

957
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 1: spend more time listening to podcasts about video games than

958
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,680
Speaker 1: I do playing them. But you know, I've started collecting

959
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 1: retro video games. I gotta fucking cr team Monitor in here.

960
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:47,800
Speaker 1: So and I both play Monitor. Okay, I didn't know

961
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:52,520
Speaker 1: they made the critical race theory monitors. Yeah, turn it

962
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 1: on and it's like and it's like, whiteness is false.

963
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:58,839
Speaker 1: White just does not exist. It doesn't display white at all.

964
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:04,920
Speaker 1: It shades of grid. Um. So, I don't know if

965
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,120
Speaker 1: I definitely heard this growing up in the you know,

966
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 1: being a growing being born in the eighties and in

967
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:12,480
Speaker 1: the early nineties, have always from my mom and like

968
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,880
Speaker 1: grandparents were like, I don't look at the TV. Is

969
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,600
Speaker 1: gonna rot your brain. You're playing video games all the time.

970
00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:20,160
Speaker 1: I's gonna rotch your brain. Why are you playing Super

971
00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:22,560
Speaker 1: An Intent? Why are you playing Mario Paint? I'm like,

972
00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:25,920
Speaker 1: because this ship is dope, okay. And it came with

973
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,560
Speaker 1: a mouse that I plugged into my Super Nintendo Funk

974
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:35,080
Speaker 1: with me. Oh yeah, Mario taught me typing. Thank you

975
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 1: do you guys have heard at school, dude, Mario teaches type.

976
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:44,040
Speaker 1: I had that on my Mac when I in Yeah, man, okay,

977
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:46,799
Speaker 1: not the Falintendo released, so I kind of object to it.

978
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: But yeah, okay, got you. It's not cannon funk licensing

979
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:53,279
Speaker 1: deal um. But yeah, I think we've for a while.

980
00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: I think that was like sort of like the accepted

981
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:57,240
Speaker 1: thing that parents would be get really sort of nervous

982
00:55:57,239 --> 00:56:00,000
Speaker 1: about it too much. Video games is gonna it's actually

983
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:05,440
Speaker 1: bad for you. Well guess what. The Carolinska Instituted in

984
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:09,640
Speaker 1: Sweden has conducted a pretty lengthy study on thousands of

985
00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:12,240
Speaker 1: kids in the US to see how playing video games

986
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,440
Speaker 1: affected their intelligence. In this case, they're just their general

987
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:19,320
Speaker 1: cognitive abilities, not like did their vocabulary expand or whatever,

988
00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 1: just testing their general cognitive abilities. So they looked at

989
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,920
Speaker 1: nine thousand kids an aged nine in ten and had

990
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:28,520
Speaker 1: them do a battery of tests just to sort of

991
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 1: set a baseline. Then they followed up with about five

992
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 1: thousand of these kids about two years later to run

993
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,160
Speaker 1: the tests again and to see if there were any

994
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,200
Speaker 1: differences that they could find. And here's something they found. Quote,

995
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:41,720
Speaker 1: on average, the children spent two and a half hours

996
00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 1: a day watching TV, half an hour on social media,

997
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,719
Speaker 1: and one hour playing video games. The results showed that

998
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:49,880
Speaker 1: those who played more games than the average increased their

999
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:53,879
Speaker 1: intelligence between the two measurements by approximately two point five

1000
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:57,240
Speaker 1: i q points more than the average. No significant effect

1001
00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:59,920
Speaker 1: was observed positive or negative of TV watching or soul

1002
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,160
Speaker 1: for media. So they said, okay that, but maybe that

1003
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 1: tracts me because TV social media seems pretty passive now,

1004
00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 1: not to say, who knows the toll that takes on

1005
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:11,440
Speaker 1: someone's emotional well being, because they do say, Look, we

1006
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,719
Speaker 1: were we were not checking for the effects of things

1007
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 1: like on things like physical activity, sleep well being, or

1008
00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:21,720
Speaker 1: school performance, very narrowly on their cognitive ability. But the

1009
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,240
Speaker 1: results seem to be in line or are in line

1010
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:26,720
Speaker 1: with other studies that claim that screen time doesn't impair

1011
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:29,840
Speaker 1: children's cognitive abilities and in fact, gaming can't help him

1012
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:34,520
Speaker 1: boost things. I have a theory about this study, yes here,

1013
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,640
Speaker 1: But first of all, it comports with my own experience

1014
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:40,120
Speaker 1: because one thing that I read years and years ago

1015
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:42,200
Speaker 1: is that the main thing video games help you do

1016
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:46,520
Speaker 1: is that they teach you how to navigate human design

1017
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 1: software systems. Right, So when you you when you play

1018
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,240
Speaker 1: a video game. Right, You used to playing a video game,

1019
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:54,880
Speaker 1: you don't generally need to read an instruction manual. Right.

1020
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:57,000
Speaker 1: You can turn the game on if you played them

1021
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 1: a lot, and you're like, Okay, what are the verbs

1022
00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:00,920
Speaker 1: that the game designer game of me? How can I

1023
00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:03,400
Speaker 1: use them? And then you know you're in a level

1024
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:05,360
Speaker 1: and you're like, the game seems like it wants me

1025
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:07,840
Speaker 1: to go this way? Right, Like you start to you

1026
00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:10,080
Speaker 1: start to understand, this is a whole playground that someone

1027
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:12,920
Speaker 1: is created for my benefit. Here's the goal, and so

1028
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 1: I can poke around and figure out how I'm supposed

1029
00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: to achieve the goal. Right, Well, there's two paths. One

1030
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:19,840
Speaker 1: of them probably leads to a treasure chest. The other

1031
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,240
Speaker 1: one probably takes me towards the final boss. And that's

1032
00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 1: the critical path. You used to understand things like that, right,

1033
00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:27,160
Speaker 1: And so the theory that I read years ago was

1034
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:31,480
Speaker 1: that that makes children less intimidated by technology generally, right.

1035
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 1: And I experienced that myself, like when I The reason

1036
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:37,440
Speaker 1: I'm working in comedy today is because when I was

1037
00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 1: in college, I taught myself photoshop, and I taught myself

1038
00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 1: video editing on Final Cut Pro, and I was in

1039
00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 1: a college sketch group, and I became the post production guy,

1040
00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:48,000
Speaker 1: you know, who did all the video editing. And I

1041
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:49,960
Speaker 1: just taught myself video editing by like, all right, let

1042
00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:52,760
Speaker 1: me pop open the final cut and like start rooting

1043
00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:55,320
Speaker 1: around those menus. What does this menu do? What does that?

1044
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:57,720
Speaker 1: What does that control panel do? Like, I'm I'm not

1045
00:58:57,840 --> 00:58:59,480
Speaker 1: scared of it. I don't need someone to teach me

1046
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:00,880
Speaker 1: how to do it. I can just sort of figure

1047
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:02,760
Speaker 1: it out. I read the manual too, but you know,

1048
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 1: so it gives you that sort of fluency, and that's

1049
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:10,120
Speaker 1: something that like comes in really handy in America nowadays,

1050
00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:12,960
Speaker 1: and especially I bet that helps you do better on

1051
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:15,440
Speaker 1: an i Q test. Now, i Q tests are bullshit.

1052
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:18,280
Speaker 1: I did a whole segment about them on Adam Ruins Everything.

1053
00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 1: They don't measure, you know, any sort of like that.

1054
00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:23,680
Speaker 1: You shouldn't take them as an objective measure of intelligence.

1055
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 1: They're they're measuring how well you do on that particular test,

1056
00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:29,880
Speaker 1: but they're not measuring like anything inherent about you. However,

1057
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:32,520
Speaker 1: I have taken one recently, and it's a whole lot

1058
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:36,000
Speaker 1: of like how quickly can you fit the you know,

1059
00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 1: can you like what are they called tan grams or

1060
00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:40,640
Speaker 1: tessellations or something where you fit like the little polygon

1061
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 1: pieces like into a square and stuff like that. How

1062
00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:47,240
Speaker 1: well can you remember numbers backwards? Things like that, And like,

1063
00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:49,960
Speaker 1: if you've played a lot of video games, it's very

1064
00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:52,640
Speaker 1: video gamey stuff. You're like, oh, okay, this is what

1065
00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:54,360
Speaker 1: it's trying to get me to do. This is the

1066
00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 1: challenging part. I can if I focus on this, I

1067
00:59:57,600 --> 00:59:59,720
Speaker 1: should be able to, you know, do better on it.

1068
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,200
Speaker 1: So I really enjoyed doing the i Q test for

1069
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:04,400
Speaker 1: the same reason I like playing video games, and so

1070
01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:06,160
Speaker 1: I feel like this is I feel like it's not

1071
01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:08,280
Speaker 1: making you more intelligent, but I bet it does make you.

1072
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:09,560
Speaker 1: If you play a lot of video games, I bet

1073
01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:11,200
Speaker 1: you do better on an i Q test. I think

1074
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 1: it's more like in line with playing an instrument. Right

1075
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:16,480
Speaker 1: that you grew up playing an instrument, you're in you're

1076
01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:19,480
Speaker 1: gonna be. You're just developing different skills than if you weren't.

1077
01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:23,440
Speaker 1: Like music. There's timing your hand eye coordination to read music,

1078
01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:26,680
Speaker 1: to know music theory, and like the relationships between notes

1079
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:29,560
Speaker 1: and things like that help a lot. And I even

1080
01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,680
Speaker 1: just even subtly, right, I just noticed for me like

1081
01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 1: I you know, I'm I'm, I'm also Japanese. So growing

1082
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,480
Speaker 1: up in the in the US, the my or my

1083
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 1: Japanese education mostly came from my mom speaking to me

1084
01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:44,880
Speaker 1: and mostly only speaking to me in Japanese to build

1085
01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:48,040
Speaker 1: my ability to speak two languages. Reading was a little

1086
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,320
Speaker 1: bit different because when I turned the TV on, it's

1087
01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:52,440
Speaker 1: always English, and like I would, I would have to

1088
01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:56,480
Speaker 1: seek out Japanese material to begin reading. When Game Boy

1089
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:59,280
Speaker 1: came around, they were like and I was playing Japanese

1090
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:01,480
Speaker 1: game Boy games so many, you know, because back in

1091
01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:04,720
Speaker 1: those those days, like there was no spoken audio dialogue

1092
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:06,560
Speaker 1: that played out of the TV. It was all text.

1093
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:08,640
Speaker 1: You had to read and hit a to continue the

1094
01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 1: fucking dialogue. And that very quickly got me to begin

1095
01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:15,439
Speaker 1: reading Japanese at a much quicker pace than I did

1096
01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:17,800
Speaker 1: if I was like using a book or whatever, because

1097
01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:21,200
Speaker 1: I was so inherently rather being like I don't know how,

1098
01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:22,920
Speaker 1: I don't know what this says or whatever, I was

1099
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:25,160
Speaker 1: like fuck it. Through the repetition of trying to read

1100
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:27,160
Speaker 1: this over and over, it gave me those skills. So

1101
01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:29,560
Speaker 1: there's these little things that you do pick up and

1102
01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:32,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's necessarily the secret to you know,

1103
01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:36,120
Speaker 1: having you know, having super brain. But it's like, I like,

1104
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:39,040
Speaker 1: we're all saying, like we can all connect these little

1105
01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:41,320
Speaker 1: dots to little things that we picked up for skills

1106
01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:44,080
Speaker 1: we picked up. I'm so jealous of you for having

1107
01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:47,240
Speaker 1: that childhood experience with Japanese because I mean, obviously I

1108
01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:51,320
Speaker 1: grew up like so many American kids did with Japanese

1109
01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:55,880
Speaker 1: imported culture being you know, just like video games were

1110
01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,520
Speaker 1: like the entry point and then also you know, anime

1111
01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,760
Speaker 1: and everything else. But like, god, I have had the

1112
01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 1: ability to play Japanese video games growing up. Like oh,

1113
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 1: it also had to me an insufferable prick because I

1114
01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:11,360
Speaker 1: was like, y'all are late to Pokemon, y'all are late

1115
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,680
Speaker 1: to Power Rangers, y'all are late to this, And I'm like,

1116
01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:18,040
Speaker 1: I'm onto the next ship. Y'all are late to him Tie.

1117
01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:24,360
Speaker 1: Y'all are late. Y'all are late to Yeah, been watching

1118
01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:29,080
Speaker 1: women have sex with octopuses exactly. Also, y'all are late

1119
01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:32,480
Speaker 1: for old enough too. That ship as old as fuck. Yeah,

1120
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:36,919
Speaker 1: them kids doing them toores decades ago. Kids are forty now,

1121
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:39,960
Speaker 1: funk out of here. But yeah, it is it is

1122
01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:43,360
Speaker 1: like an interesting thing that video games also were, like

1123
01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:46,480
Speaker 1: mo like a motivating force for me because because my

1124
01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:49,600
Speaker 1: mom insisted or my parents are like, you gotta focus

1125
01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:52,320
Speaker 1: on and studying. I'm like, I'm doing fine in school.

1126
01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:54,080
Speaker 1: If I can do fine in school, let me play

1127
01:02:54,160 --> 01:02:57,200
Speaker 1: video games. And that's all I want. Like my you know,

1128
01:02:57,240 --> 01:02:59,840
Speaker 1: my parents weren't would never buy me video games, like

1129
01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:02,600
Speaker 1: and they were only they only came around every report

1130
01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:05,760
Speaker 1: card if I did if I had straight a's, then

1131
01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:08,360
Speaker 1: they're like, fuck it, fine, you could have one game,

1132
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:10,440
Speaker 1: you could rent. You could go rent a game. And

1133
01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:12,640
Speaker 1: that sort of feedback loop was sort of my way

1134
01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:14,600
Speaker 1: of being like, oh, I'm getting this fucking game. The

1135
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:17,960
Speaker 1: die Hard Trilogy just came out on PlayStation. Watched me

1136
01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:21,280
Speaker 1: mark my fucking tests, and so you know, there was

1137
01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:23,400
Speaker 1: a bit of a that's the game you wanted to play.

1138
01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:26,920
Speaker 1: Die Hard Trilogy. It was so bad, oh man. It

1139
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:29,000
Speaker 1: was like a three part game that was like a

1140
01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:33,200
Speaker 1: multi genre game where the first level is like a shooter,

1141
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:35,840
Speaker 1: and then I think the first two levels are like

1142
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:38,000
Speaker 1: like shooter games, like sort of like Area fifty one

1143
01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:41,200
Speaker 1: style shooters, and then the die Hard with a vengeance

1144
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,880
Speaker 1: like node within the trilogy game was like a crazy

1145
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:47,960
Speaker 1: taxi kind of thing where you were like driving around

1146
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:51,880
Speaker 1: New York exactly, and like like the worst Sam Jackson

1147
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:54,480
Speaker 1: voice actor, Like actor is like, you know, saying all

1148
01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:56,000
Speaker 1: kinds of wild ship. But I remember at the time,

1149
01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:58,080
Speaker 1: I love die Hard with a Vengeance. I was like, sure,

1150
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:01,280
Speaker 1: I need this game, need to game. Yeah, And it

1151
01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:03,479
Speaker 1: was terrible. That's how I know who Chester A. Arthur

1152
01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:06,880
Speaker 1: was and what President twenty first President of United States

1153
01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:09,400
Speaker 1: exactly learned that from Die Hard movies. Let me let

1154
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:12,800
Speaker 1: me offer a cautionary tale for any parents or future

1155
01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:15,480
Speaker 1: parents out there who are like, video games are bad.

1156
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:17,960
Speaker 1: TV is bad. It's uh, it's all gonna rob my

1157
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:21,680
Speaker 1: kid's brain. My parents took out our TVs when I

1158
01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:25,040
Speaker 1: was in fifth grade because my brother started getting bad

1159
01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:28,080
Speaker 1: grades and on our my grades also, and my sister's

1160
01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:30,080
Speaker 1: grades were starting to suffer a little bit. We had

1161
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:36,120
Speaker 1: no TV from like from fifth grade until eleventh grade

1162
01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:39,080
Speaker 1: until nine eleven. Nine eleven was the day we got

1163
01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:41,720
Speaker 1: our TVs back because nine eleven had happened and my

1164
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:44,560
Speaker 1: parents wanted to watch it. So sad day for America,

1165
01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:48,760
Speaker 1: good day for the lead family. But I uh, in

1166
01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:52,080
Speaker 1: that intervening time. I didn't get to play video games,

1167
01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:53,360
Speaker 1: I didn't get to watch it. I had to go

1168
01:04:53,440 --> 01:04:56,520
Speaker 1: to other friends houses to like fucking watch you know,

1169
01:04:56,680 --> 01:05:01,240
Speaker 1: TV and ship. I came to everything late, and uh,

1170
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:04,880
Speaker 1: I will say, what instead happened is I just discovered

1171
01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 1: drugs and started Uh in like sixth grade, I started

1172
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:12,720
Speaker 1: smoking weed. Uh, you know, I started doing hardest stuff.

1173
01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:15,640
Speaker 1: A little bit later after the TV was gone. TV

1174
01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:18,360
Speaker 1: was gone, and I was like, well, because so what

1175
01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:21,000
Speaker 1: what do I what what's left to do? And I

1176
01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:23,120
Speaker 1: was like, I'll just hang out with you know friends,

1177
01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:26,760
Speaker 1: and um, a lot of times those friends had weeds,

1178
01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:29,720
Speaker 1: so we started smoking it. And I'm just saying, I

1179
01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:32,720
Speaker 1: think that more harm was done to me by not

1180
01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:36,680
Speaker 1: having TV and video games in my life then when

1181
01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:39,440
Speaker 1: we actually you know, you know, then yeah. So I'm

1182
01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:43,840
Speaker 1: just saying, Uh, the TV made me, I think, you know,

1183
01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:48,760
Speaker 1: not as dumb as the drugs made me. So keep

1184
01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:51,120
Speaker 1: that in mind, everybody. I mean it looks also, look,

1185
01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:53,520
Speaker 1: you knew who the twenty one president was not because

1186
01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:56,000
Speaker 1: of school, exactly because of that actor who played that
