I've also been in meetings where older people are 536 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: doing this, and I think sometimes there's like the prompt 537 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 1: like not the promptness, but like their image of themselves 538 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 1: is over to that side and they keep looking. Yeah, 539 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: they look, they're checking out themselves even though the camera 540 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: is over on this side, or or she's reading a statement, and. 541 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 3: Just because the angle, yeah, the angle. 542 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 2: Because the other thing is sometimes people have a webcam 543 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 2: that's completely off away from where their computer screen is, 544 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 2: so everything's happening on one screen and you almost kind 545 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 2: of look to the camera. 546 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 3: So you're like, oh, hi, I'm acknowledging you. 547 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 2: But this looks like a laptop set up, and she 548 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 2: doesn't strike me as someone would like a matrix style 549 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 2: multi screen setup. So anyway, there's that Let's skip ahead 550 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 2: another twenty seconds. 551 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 4: I'll just stand out there and accept and be responsible. 552 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 3: Good good, good. 553 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 4: And there's a huge question of the why why am I? 554 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: That's not what we care about. 555 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 3: I just like, go ahead, twenty second. 556 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: Maybe are you going to keep doing it? 557 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 4: Scales? And I thought, if we could go on during 558 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 4: a global pandemic, this is my part, and everything that 559 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 4: the world is experienced through twenty twenty, why would this. 560 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 1: Sideline us a strike? It's a strike, it's a labor action. 561 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 4: I want to just put one foot in front of 562 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 4: the other and make a show that's there for people, 563 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 4: oh of anything else that's happening in the world. 564 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Drew, did you think your show was the oh? 565 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 1: All right? Well, this is just wanted to make a 566 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: show that was there for people insensitive times. And I 567 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: weighed the scale, and I thought, if we could go 568 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: on during a global pandemic and everything that the world 569 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: has experienced through twenty twenty, why would this sideline us? 570 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: So I want to just put one foot in front 571 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: of the other, make a show that's there for people, 572 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: regardless of anything that's happening in the world, because that's 573 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: when I think we all need something that wants to 574 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: be there for being very realistic in very realistic times. 575 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: So that is my why. 576 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 2: Oh okay, now I guess she did she end that 577 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 2: by saying well here? Did she end that by saying 578 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 2: I'm not going to make the show? Or she's just 579 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 2: saying sorry. That video is just saying sorry. No. 580 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: This was like one of a series of shows where 581 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: she was looking for the magic, whereas they were going 582 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: to make it better better each one, people were like, 583 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: shut the fuck up, like what are you talking about? 584 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: Just just quit?

Uh. So, 696 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:24,760 Speaker 1: the United Auto Workers are continuing to strike through the weekend. 697 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 1: Negotiations are ongoing, but they're there's this political article that 698 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,439 Speaker 1: was all about like how this is the Republicans chance 699 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 1: to like actually side with union workers and labor or 700 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,880 Speaker 1: like it was all like very performative. It was like, 701 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 1: this is their chance to seem like they're sympathizing with them, 702 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 1: although we know Republicans will never actually side with labor 703 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: because yeah, and and so one of the key points 704 00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: of the strike is that electronic vehicles uh can be 705 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 1: made by non union workers, right, because we like ramped 706 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: into making EV's during a time of like very weak 707 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 1: unions and immense capital power of the last you know, 708 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 1: ten to fifteen years. And so the easy answer is 709 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,800 Speaker 1: for the Democrats and power to end that loophole and 710 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 1: tell companies they need to like make all automakers you know, 711 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:36,760 Speaker 1: part of the union. But that option obviously isn't even mentioned. 712 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:40,759 Speaker 1: Like it's more, they could end the loophole that like 713 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,879 Speaker 1: the workers are bringing up. That is like the main point. 714 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 1: So like, yeah, the Republicans are like what about that? 715 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 1: So they're they're basically weaponizing the fact that EV's EV 716 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,840 Speaker 1: workers are treated like shit to be like, well EV's 717 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 1: are bad then, and like we need to go back 718 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 1: to like making guests powered automobiles because those are union protected, right, 719 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: And it's it's just a wild article to read because 720 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: like there's no mention, no idea that like either side 721 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 1: can exercise the political power to make auto exactly. I 722 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:27,720 Speaker 1: loved your look. I like someone editing this piece. 723 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,920 Speaker 3: I love the article. I love what you wrote about it, 724 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 3: except for the part. 725 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 1: When you're saying that there's something that corporations could do 726 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 1: to somehow like make things easier, or that maybe some 727 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 1: of the regulations need to be in that direction. 728 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 2: Let's let's avoid any talk of that. We don't want that, 729 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 2: we don't want that in the reality of the minds 730 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 2: of our readers, that there's somehow any action that the 731 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:53,439 Speaker 2: corporation could take to make this better, because they don't. 732 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:55,880 Speaker 1: We know they can't do that, and we don't want to. 733 00:42:56,160 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: Just look Ev bad EV's bad Republicans.
