Speaker 1: and you are moving. I am not moving. My partner

14
00:00:55,520 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: is moving. That's right. Okay, So lots of moving pieces,

15
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: lots of moving pieces. We dig at the couch and

16
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: though so exciting stuff. Did y'all do that together? Like

17
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: carry the couch? Are Floyd couch? So it is known

18
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 1: to be like very easy to like take apart and

19
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: put back together. But we did use his jeep, so

20
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: we had to like do I think two trips between

21
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: like the old apartment in this apartment unloading loading all

22
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 1: the pillows he built it. Who But yeah, I remember

23
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: the last move I did without help was from Missouri

24
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:43,639
Speaker 1: to New York and there was it was it was long,

25
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: you know, driving a U haul across all those states.

26
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: Finally got there, like had to like sit in traffic

27
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: for three hours because we chose the wrong way to

28
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: get across Manhattan. And there was just a point where

29
00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: we were carrying a couch up the apartments airs um

30
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: like to get to our apartment, and like, uh, my

31
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: wife's knees buckled and I was like, come on, you

32
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: can do it, and like she like got up and

33
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: we're like pouring sweat and we got up there and

34
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: we just like both looked at each other. We're like

35
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: never never never. Well, I feel like the last move.

36
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: I like this is again the first move in a

37
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 1: while that we are doing it ourselves. I got movers

38
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: the two times I've moved in New York, and then

39
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: I had movers when I did the cross country. But

40
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 1: I got some like really botched movers and they almost

41
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: like stole all my stuff. And yeah, that's the other thing.

42
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: Well we got movers the next time. It was really

43
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,679
Speaker 1: vet them, like, yeah, that is the thing they don't

44
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 1: tell you is that you have to pay a lot

45
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 1: of money if you don't want your ship stolen. Like

46
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: you just have to know that you're working up like

47
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: seven grand for good movers. Often times you have just

48
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 1: created an officially sanctioned hostage situation where they're like, yeah, no,

49
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: we could get there in a day if what's it worth. Yeah,

50
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, yeah, we'll do it in three weeks.

51
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: My stuff doesn't come for two months and stuff is missing,

52
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: everything's wet, and I was arguing with them every day

53
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 1: to be like where is it? So it wasn't learned

54
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: less and learned on the cross country move anyways, I

55
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: am Jack. That is supercuse Rebecca. And it's a bad day.

56
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 1: It's it's like uniquely I think bad because we're getting

57
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: bad Supreme Court decisions ahead of the like main course

58
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: Bed Supreme Court decision, like the nightmare scenario, darkest timeline

59
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: Bed Supreme Court decision where they're gonna overturn row Um,

60
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: and we're getting like the apparative right now where they're like, uh,

61
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: just so you know, like where we're coming from, so

62
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: that you guys can like kind of better understand our

63
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: whole ship. Um, we are going to overturn the ability

64
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 1: basically of cities to prevent people from carrying guns wherever

65
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: the funk they want, like concealed carrying. Um. Yeah, and

66
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: they did this in New York right, like in New York. Yeah,

67
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: that was it was a concealed carry law in New

68
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: York City. Which, mind you, in the climate right now,

69
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: as someone who lives in New York City, like we

70
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: have had three different shootings in the past couple of

71
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: months in the subways from you know, non police, the

72
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: police did not help, Like we don't know how many

73
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: police shootings there have been type of shooting statistic, They

74
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: absolutely do not. Yeah, So you know, I'm not loving

75
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: this as someone who is a New Yorker who it

76
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: has been I don't think more historically dangerous in years

77
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: than right now to be on public transit, to be

78
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: out at night in this city. You know, I'm in

79
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 1: Brooklyn and I feel pretty good most places I go,

80
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: but the energy is very different on the trains now

81
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: like it has been, especially those last couple of shootings,

82
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: both of them being in Brooklyn, like it is. I

83
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: it's like you're you're checking in on your friends. You're like, hey,

84
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 1: did you make it home on safe? I need you

85
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: to tell me because it's just it's bad. So this

86
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: sucks all that to say, Yeah, I don't I don't know.

87
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: They are overturning like common sense, modern laws built specifically

88
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 1: by people who live in New York for the City

89
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: of New York, um in favor of the Second Amendment,

90
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: which you know was written before the invention of bullets. Yeah,

91
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: like that back load your gun with gunpowder? Yeah, you

92
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,679
Speaker 1: have to like bite something I think and like spit

93
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: it down the barrel of like gun. Um. Yeah, so

94
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: Andrea Junker at strand Junker tweeted in nine, the Second

95
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: Amendment was written in seven the bullet was invented. Uh so,

96
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: thus the Second Amendment only applies to muskets like this

97
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: is but this that is the deal with this the

98
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: Preme Court and been the deal with all of the

99
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: you know, I think gun rights conversations we've been having

100
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: for many years, right especially after all Day, right, like

101
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: it it's like you guys are fighting for an amendment

102
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: that no longer applies to the you know, fuel power

103
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: that exists in the arms weapons world that we live in.

104
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: Like it's just like when that thought like law was

105
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: created and thought of, you could not buy, you know,

106
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: a fucking semi automatic gun that could shoot a hundred

107
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 1: rounds and under two minutes. Like just not the same,

108
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: not the same. So it sucks. It's more proof that

109
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: you know, even after something like all Day happened, that

110
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: we are still not taking you know, the issues we're

111
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: havings with gun laws. Seriously. Yeah, the constitution is broken,

112
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: like we there needs to be and probably will be

113
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: within a generation, a strong movement to fucking tear up

114
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: the US Constitution. It's fucking broken. It's from a different time. Like,

115
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: shut the funk up, everybody and just overturned, rip it up,

116
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: restart anew. I'm sure it's going to be a very

117
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: bloody fight, but that's what needs to happen. Yeah, the police, Um,

118
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: like in a in another Supreme Court decision, you know,

119
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 1: just a good day for police and police advocates out here. Uh,

120
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court is like that you can't see the

121
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 1: cops if they don't read you your Miranda rights anymore, um,

122
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: which is going to make the tone the substance of

123
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: Law and Order episodes very different. UM also just gives

124
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: police more power, like just really you know, putting power

125
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: in the hands of the already extremely powerful. It seems

126
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: to be the goal of this court. UM. Also, Stacy

127
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: Abrahams for some reason was like, we need to pay

128
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: police more, which I thought that's been our as the

129
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: you know, far left people's argument isn't like we don't, right,

130
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: Like they're getting so much to do so little. Like

131
00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: that has been a huge conversation here in New York

132
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: City because you know, the police are getting even more

133
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: funding and like being able to spend more people on this,

134
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: like more police on the subways and things like that,

135
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: and it's been arguably more and more dangerous every day.

136
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: So that is crazy, isn't the random right the whole

137
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: case claim from a Supreme Court case? If I vaguely

138
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: remember doing policy of UM and I took police say

139
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: in college, Uh, like, I don't understand how you can

140
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: like create a Supreme Court law for it and then

141
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: basically take it away. Yeah, Well, because they the Supreme

142
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: Court is just a political institution that gets changed with

143
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: you know, whoever uses their wields their power more wisely

144
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: to fill it up with idealogues. And I don't understand

145
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: how we're like presidencies for for your terms, like and

146
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 1: you can only do it twice and how then on

147
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: the flip side, we have fucking Supreme Court life long

148
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: uh you know positions I don't, I don't. I and granted,

149
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: like I said, I took one semester of policy. I

150
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 1: did not go to law school or study up on this,

151
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 1: but it is confusing to me with yeah, like producer

152
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: Brian said, no age cap, Like, I don't understand why.

153
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: It's like these are lifelong terms with no age caps,

154
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: like I don't, I don't can do pushups and clean like, yeah,

155
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: it's a fucking nightmare. It's a It's an absolute nightmare.

156
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: Very frustrating. I'll tell you what's not frustrating. The new

157
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: Drake album is UM. Now, apparently it is pretty frustrating.

158
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: Gonna say, are you potentially frustrating? It's I've had this

159
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: thought before when listening to Drake music. UM, but now

160
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: I haven't listened to the new album. But super producer

161
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: Brian is is like worried about Drake. Like he's not

162
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: a stand or anything, but he's like that he's suffering

163
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 1: from depression, right, you put that super ruser Brian is

164
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: worried about how superstar Drake. No, it is like I

165
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: think very telling that how do I put this? You

166
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 1: have so much money, you did it all right? Like

167
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: he I think so much of his music as we

168
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: were talking off air before we got on, like he

169
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: is angry, right, he's so angsty, and a lot of

170
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: his music at the beginning made sense, right because he's

171
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: like coming up. He's like trying to prove himself. He's like,

172
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: you know, y'all are y'all ain't see me yet, right,

173
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: But it's like now we have now you are like

174
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: record breaking, you know, number one rapper in the world

175
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 1: right now and have been for you know, many years

176
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: at this point, and not because of potentially like your

177
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: creative ingenuity. You know, it's He's not Kanye, He's not

178
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: you know, Kendrick, but he is so parkinable. He knows

179
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: how to play the game. He knows how to be big.

180
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: He knows how to make you know, hits, he knows

181
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: how to be every summer song. You know, Drake knows

182
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 1: how to turn out a summer hit. But you know,

183
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: at this point, now it just feels like there's something

184
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: broken in his music, Like it's sad, it's stale. It's

185
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: like no one's asking for the new album and you're

186
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: giving it to us, and it's like all of us

187
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: would love to hear some good work from you, Like

188
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: you can sit on it, like you can incubate it.

189
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: We are good if you like took some time and

190
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: if the album would most appropriately be titled honestly never mind,

191
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,719
Speaker 1: um the most depressed thing you can utter, unless you're

192
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: being passive aggressive, in which case it's just a very

193
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: past aggressive thing. Yeah. It's like there's a lyric on

194
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: money to the Grave or money in the Grave whatever

195
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: that song is with Rick Ross where he's like he's

196
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: been on top for so long and like he's just

197
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: worried about like the drop, and I think that really

198
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 1: feels like he's like he's just like I don't know,

199
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 1: I'm just like board and like but like I don't

200
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: want to fall because it would be like slightly uncomfortable,

201
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 1: so I'll just like keep churning this ship out. But

202
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: it just seems genuinely like a great embodiment. We've got

203
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: two great embodiments of the emptiness of our current system

204
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: of capitalism. We got Drake who's like on top, and

205
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: his like, I just don't want to like not be

206
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: on top, I guess. So I'm just gonna keep like

207
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: churning out empty like simulacrum of my previous work, and

208
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: people will keep buying it, and we'll just keep doing

209
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 1: this what well, because I I don't want to feel

210
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 1: like I don't want to jump in the pool and

211
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: feel that momentary like discomfort of like the surprise of

212
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: like the body temperature change that that. I think that's

213
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: like basically what his leering, what he says is like

214
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: how how he talks about his success in that in

215
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: that song. Yeah, it's just it's uh pitchwork. Put it

216
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: really um simply And I agree. I didn't read the

217
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: whole review, but they give us six point six, which

218
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: I feel like it is, like I give it a

219
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 1: six point six for what it was. Um, A breezy

220
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: Drake dance album sounds great in concept, but the half

221
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: measure house beats and lackluster songwriting keeps it from really

222
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 1: popping off. And I agree, I think that is a

223
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: great submention of what the album really is. You know,

224
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: it's like we were talking. More Life had like it's

225
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: like what this album should have been, you know, like

226
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 1: the certain essence of certain songs and More Life like

227
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: the um do Better, you know, like it's just like

228
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 1: that is what I wanted out of this album, and

229
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: this album sounds like that one song, just over and over,

230
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: but like not the lyrics aren't the hooks aren't as good,

231
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: and honestly, Drake is known for his hook, so I

232
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: was kind of disappointed that it was like, even if

233
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: it was at a base level, not as like lyrically

234
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: inclined or you know, we all know Rake isn't a

235
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 1: strong singer. Uh, you know, I just felt like Drake

236
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: having a great hook is what he's known for, and

237
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 1: it was just very blow. I can never get over that,

238
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: whichever one it is because I did not memorize the

239
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: track list. I'm sorry, y'all. Uh, the one that's like

240
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: the Pussy one, it was just like so uncomfortable every

241
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: time I hear it, I'm just like, I call him

242
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: my name, your pussy is call him my name. It

243
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: sounds weird when he's singing it. It sounds bad, and

244
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: I have to listen to that song at least I'm

245
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna do that because that sounds Bruce and

246
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: Brian gave it to us. It's calling my name, that is,

247
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 1: and I should have known by the second half of

248
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: the hook says it's a non song. It's it's the

249
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: one going viral on TikTok. It seems like the most

250
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: like unremarkable lyrics. So the fact that like there's something

251
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: about the delivery where you're like, oh, this feels like

252
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 1: the death of something. Yeah, yeah, all right, let's take

253
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: a quick break, come back and talk about the second

254
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: great example of just the emptiness of capitalism and like

255
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: what what success looks like in this world? Um with

256
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 1: with regards to Brad Pitt and what he spent an

257
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: entire year doing. And we're back and Brad Pitt. Uh

258
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: So there's a g Q article that some people have

259
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: been like their reputation laundering for Brad Pitt. You know,

260
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: there was some unfortunate things that happened, and now he's

261
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: in recovery and uh it was really ill, wasn't he? Um,

262
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: I don't know, like like in recovery like um like addiction. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

263
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: So one of the details in this GQ magazine I

264
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: just had to call out because it is it's just

265
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: such a like Drake getting to the top of like

266
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: music in a in a way that is like people

267
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: are like he has more hits than Michael Jackson and

268
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: ship like that, um and being completely depressed, like openly

269
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: like the incapable of like even generating an emotion. Uh,

270
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: that is like identifiable. Is it is a great illustration

271
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: of just like yeah, we're we're all in this um

272
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: system that like gives us a motivation, like has the

273
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: carrot dangling in front of us that keeps us going.

274
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: And when the very few people who actually catch the

275
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: carrot like realize that like that it's meaningless and immoral

276
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: and it all sucks and they lose lose their mind

277
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 1: and soul oftentimes, and it's it's not it's not good.

278
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: And also they can't complain, like they can't be like,

279
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: oh guys, this actually sucks because um, yeah, they got

280
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: everything that we think we want. Um. But anyway, so

281
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna read directly from page six. Who's talking

282
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: about a revelation. In this g Q article, Hollywood superstar

283
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,959
Speaker 1: Brad Pitt has admitted spending a year on a quote

284
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: foolish dig for buried treasure, just to realize it was

285
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: all a ruse to get him to invest in a

286
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: radar company. The moneyball star told GQ magazine that he

287
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: was told gold worth millions of dollars was known to

288
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: be buried under Chateau mirav All, his one thousand acre

289
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: estate im Provence. I got obsessed, Pitt told the Meg

290
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: Like for a year, this was all I could think about,

291
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: just the excitement of it all. To the Missouri raised actor,

292
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: maybe it has something to do with where I grew up,

293
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: because in the Ozark Mountains there were always stories of

294
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: hidden caches of God. He lives on a one thousand

295
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: acre estate in France, um and is looking for buried gold.

296
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: He lives there with like a family he loved and

297
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 1: he's still looking for goal. Like his his house is

298
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 1: worth so much money. What what are you? What are

299
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: you doing? And and like there's just like something I

300
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: don't know there. I like the fact that we don't

301
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: really know anything about Brad Pitt and he's been famous

302
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: for forty years has always made me like suspect, like, well,

303
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 1: they're hiding something, and I've always hoped it's kind of

304
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: just that he's like sort of a you know, dull

305
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 1: puppy dog type, you know, stoner guy who's not quick

306
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: on his feet, and then like, I don't know, like

307
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: this is just it's it's so depressing, not like I

308
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 1: feel sorry for Brad Pitt as much as like our

309
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:59,160
Speaker 1: version of reality at like hyper capitalism is so thoroughly

310
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: rough and just like existentially boring and pointless. Yeah it is,

311
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: I mean, and it's it's kind of amazing, not in

312
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: a good way, but just in an astonishing way. How

313
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 1: this because the whole reason that it happens because the

314
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: man that had targeted him wanted him to be a

315
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,959
Speaker 1: potential investor in a big radar company and obviously successfully

316
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: pitched all this material, which is bananas, you know, to

317
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 1: be able to pray on somebody's like I guess, I

318
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: don't know, emptiness like you said, like it's like you

319
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,239
Speaker 1: can tell this man is like so lost in his

320
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: life that you're like, oh, I know, I can dope

321
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: him into spending millions of dollars on equipment to search

322
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: and play treasure hunt in his house because he has

323
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 1: nothing better to do. It is, it is such a

324
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:54,119
Speaker 1: state of inequalities. Country but able to like have the

325
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 1: money and the time to do that and then also

326
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: still be so empty. It's wild. It is just like

327
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: it's it's like, obviously I don't like feel necessarily bad

328
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: for Brad Pitt, but it is just such an existential

329
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 1: dread of like the haves and the have nots. Like

330
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 1: You're it's like almost Great gats B esque. You're like, Wow,

331
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: your life is that way, and I'm over here and

332
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,239
Speaker 1: crazy to think what our problems are and they're so

333
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: different and how you know, I'm honestly grateful that I

334
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 1: don't know what it's like to be that rich, because

335
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: I I don't think I'd love to be that empty.

336
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 1: And I think that is like the spectrum of like

337
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: the more money you have, the more empty you end

338
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: up being. Yeah, I mean he seemed he seemed to

339
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: still find it. I mean he did. I'm sure he's

340
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: like the most upsetting part is probably the money he

341
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 1: lost and all that equipment. But now he has all

342
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: that equipment, maybe he'll go find somewhere. Isn't that where

343
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 1: Like all I think all the radar equipment was developed

344
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: by people looking for oil in Texas, So maybe you

345
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: can go wildcat and all right, well, those are some

346
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 1: of the things that are trending on this Thursday afternoon.

347
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 1: We are back tomorrow with the whole last episode of

348
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 1: the show. Until then, be kind to each other, be

349
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:13,160

350
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: white supremacy, and we will talk to y'all tomorrow. M
