I 41 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 1: was avoiding looking at some kind of forecasting model because 42 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: it was the same here all over the person.

So but you were 44 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: so I could see in your eyes, like what was happening. 45 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: It was just a flashback to two thousand sixteen where 46 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: I was like, well Hillary still got this in the 47 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: bag all the way to than I did last year 48 00:02:55,240 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: last election, where you know, I had hope right this election, 49 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: I was like, let's be real, but I think we'll 50 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: get the house, you know.

It's the fourth quarter that decides everything. 53 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: You don't stress out until the fourth quarter. And then 54 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: when I was like, oh, somehow people are still voting 55 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: for Ted fucking Cruise, that was when it all made 56 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: me quite women in particular went big to Ted Cruise. 57 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: I guess white men also, did you know what I'm saying, 58 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: hurt using this cast?

It was that or fiance, 68 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: but I do not know anything about dance compromise. We'll 69 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about insane news that people intentionally released yesterday, 70 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: like Amazon dropped their big HQ will be in Queens 71 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: and Arlington news on election day that was just bad 72 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 1: decision making, and the New York Times put up a 73 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: comi op ed which was weird and imped policies honestly, 74 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: like combined by a high person.

We're gonna talk about Fox News denouncing 80 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity because Fox News is apparently still thinks that 81 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: some people think that their objective. And then we're gonna 82 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: talk about the story that I was consoling myself with 83 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: during the time when tracking poll like went wildly in 84 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: the opposite direction. There may be alien life. This weird 85 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: object came into our solar system, and we're gonna talk 86 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: about it. Why why people think it might be alien 87 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: life exactly? But first, Sophia, what is something from your 88 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: search history that is revealing about who you are or 89 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: where are you at? Um? It was mostly anxious political things, 90 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: but also I guess I looked up that Arianta Grande 91 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: ponytail thing because I'm a piece of ship that what 92 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: is it? Yeah? She was like, I do it all 93 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: the time. I put it, put my hair in a 94 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: ponytail all the time, even though it hurts all the time. 95 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 1: Oh no, it hurts. I just remember seeing that this morning. 96 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: I was like, honestly, not today, God, any other day. 97 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: I would love to hear about her poor scalp from 98 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 1: having it in that up. Yeah. Here's the thing about 99 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: that is a couple of years ago, a story was 100 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, listeners, the story was trending. I needed 101 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: something to distract me from the attention. Yeah, so uh. 102 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: A couple of years ago story was trending that she 103 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: was wearing her hair in a ponytail all the time, 104 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: because I google this, I was like, what is that, 105 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: bitches problem? Like why is that the only hairstyle specific look? 106 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: And it was a trending story that basically she was 107 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: doing it because her hair got so ruined from like 108 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: when she was on that Disney show and I got 109 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 1: died all the time. And then I was like, but 110 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: that doesn't make sense, because you put your hair back 111 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: in a ponytail has like more chances of like your 112 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: hair falling out. We would want to kind of just 113 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,239 Speaker 1: leave it loose. So I was like, that doesn't make sense. 114 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 1: But then I was like, Sophia, you've already spent more 115 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: time thinking about this than it deserves. So that I 116 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: shoved that until the story yesterday, which was like ye yeah, 117 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: a couple of years later, and I was like, I 118 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: knew it. I've always been fascinated by her, like her 119 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: ponytail thing and the fact that because we did a 120 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: story back when I was cracked about the fact that 121 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: she basically went back on an entire photography session because 122 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: they photographed her from the wrong side. She was like, 123 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: I only do left side, Like you cannot photographed me 124 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: from the other side, and then I was noticing, like, 125 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: she's the only famous person who like always has the 126 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: same hair do like every time she's seen in public, 127 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: and I was like, wow, she really carefully cultivates her image. 128 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: Like we studied Bruce Willis movie posters and found that 129 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: he like cocks his head to the same like fifteen 130 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: degree angle on every movie poster just because he's like, yeah, 131 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: my head looks good at that angle. It's like the 132 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: famous people are very it looks, but they're experts at 133 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: like very minute details of how they come off to 134 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: other people. When I worked in video will head, yes, 135 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: it's just a a goal circle. And also he looks 136 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: kind of like just a turtle, so what's he worried? 137 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: But very like thuggish one. Yeah, but yeah, no, Ariana 138 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: Granni will not let you show her non dimple side. 139 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: That's what it is. It's her non dimple side, which 140 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: I learned quickly to working with her. And then there's 141 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: like a lot of bands do this, Like there's one 142 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: band called the Neighborhood and they only allow you to 143 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: shoot them in black and white, Like alright, dude, okay, thanks, 144 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: you know, but I guess ay, you gotta be real 145 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: careful about how you present your image out there. So 146 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: that's but it's like funny because knowing that about how 147 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: careful your images makes your image not really and just 148 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: makes slanning. Yet, but maybe it only hurts you two 149 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: people who are paying attention, which, as we'll get to 150 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: there aren't that many of those. There are more people 151 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: who aren't paying attention in this country of errors. So 152 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: uh yeah, maybe it works out in the end. What 153 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: is something you think is overrated? Okay?

You know, just let allow people to 219 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,599 Speaker 1: have their opinions, you know, if they don't like it 220 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: full bore like you whatever, Like that doesn't make that 221 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: doesn't make your point less valid or there's you know, 222 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: I think people just look at it like in this 223 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 1: comparative way. I think it um dumbs down the level 224 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: of our cultural discourse. That's really why I don't like it, 225 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: because I would like to be able to talk about 226 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: a movie or a person or an opinion and say, 227 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 1: you know, hey, I think so and so's politics on 228 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 1: this are great, but I think that is pretty problematic 229 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: instead of every headline being like this person is a 230 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,239 Speaker 1: pile of garbage, or this person is a saint who immediately, 231 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: you know inevitably is going to become um a piece 232 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: of garbage next week when you find out something from 233 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: their browser history that you are disappointed in. And I 234 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,719 Speaker 1: just really want to be able for us to just 235 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: be realistic, and video game fans who are notoriously even 236 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: measured basically threatened to kill someone for giving red dead 237 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: redemption to like an okay score. They were like it's good, 238 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 1: and that was bullshit. People got real mad. This is 239 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: the asshole who's bringing down the meta score. Yeah, I 240 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: told him. I was like, yo, if when I see 241 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: it was ugly, you could bet that, Like that's stupid. 242 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: Y'all reviewer where you go and you're like, oh, this 243 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: restaurant has all five star reviews, but there's this one 244 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: star and you read it, it's like it started on 245 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: four to my daughter was born.

Your use of 255 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 1: the word accommodate in your fake Yelp review is so 256 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: on point. They use accommodate like five times in review 257 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: that the chronic Yelp reviewers they would care about their customers. 258 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: I guess the customer is wrong in this sense. Or 259 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: it'll be like something you could never expect from where 260 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 1: they're at.

Yeah, bitch, someone just pooped in a hole. 264 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: What were you thinking is going to happen? Uh? And finally, 265 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: what is a myth? What's something people think is true? 266 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: You know tobe holes? All right, So I guess I 267 00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 1: want to debunk um. There's like I just feel a 268 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: lot of stuff that goes around that's like Americans pass 269 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: along for a long period of time, is like a truism, 270 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: and then you have to keep referring to it as 271 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: not true, even though it's been a long time, and 272 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: it's like not not ever been true, Like for example, 273 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: that um, black people are who's unwelfare and it's like, okay, 274 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: well there's been statistics for a long time that have 275 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: shown that that is not the case. They're not the 276 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 1: only people on welfare, and proportionally they are not people 277 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: in welfare. Yeah, that's what I mean, the myth of 278 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: the welfare queen and um my mom and I were 279 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: on welfare when we moved here. And I love telling 280 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: people that because a lot of white people's faces will 281 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: change like they've never heard that, and they're like, well 282 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: when did you start bleaching your skin? Which is so crazy, 283 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: And so I just feel like I need to go 284 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: around telling people that we used to be unwelfare because 285 00:16:55,760 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: people divide minorities into like good minorities and bad minorities, 286 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: and like, uh, you know Jews Asians. I'm Russian, so 287 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: like Russian Jews were like model minorities and we're like, oh, Yeah, 288 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna move here, You're gonna go after you know, schooling, 289 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 1: You're gonna get a great career. We love you. What 290 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 1: would like to vilify being poor and right? Exactly and 291 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,360 Speaker 1: it's not. You know, my mom was a software engineer 292 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: where we were from, and then we moved here, or 293 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: she was a computer programmer. We moved here and she 294 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,959 Speaker 1: had to start over. She had to learn English, and 295 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: we used to clean houses together and like, uh, be 296 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 1: on welfare. And that is how it works when you 297 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: move to a new place and you're trying to get 298 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: your life together. We were immigrant refugees, and so many 299 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: white people and so many Russian people I know were 300 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: on welfare when they moved here. So the next time 301 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: you think of the welfare queen, picture my face, bitch, 302 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: because that's who that is. You're talking about me and 303 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 1: my mom.

I loved if 320 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: throughout if you like Adam Sandler, and you loved especially 321 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: if you bought his albums, if you were that level 322 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 1: Sandler person. I had his albums as a kid. I 323 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: was fucking scream crying her majesty. My girlfriend thought I 324 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: was losing my mind during certain parts and it was 325 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: so man, there's just something like it really transports me 326 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: to another time. I think that style of humor because 327 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 1: I haven't been able to laugh at something like that. 328 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,199 Speaker 1: That's not just you know, overtly vulgar or whatever. It's 329 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 1: just his delivery and just the ship that he choose 330 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 1: to talk about. It's so funny, so silly and joyful 331 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: in a way that we haven't seen in a long 332 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 1: ass time. And it reminds me of like when you 333 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: saw Billy Madison for the first time, and just like 334 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: the little lines that are the throwaways and all the 335 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: you know, the shampoo, see the condition I make that 336 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: we all really, we all love that so much because 337 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: it was so simple and joyful and goofy. Yeah, and 338 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 1: I still remember where I was when I first heard 339 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: his first album, like just because of how hard I 340 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: was laughing. It was like my friend's basement, basically like, yeah, 341 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: this felt similar. So I also don't want to like 342 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 1: overdo it. Yeah, I'm just sufficed to say we're I'm 343 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: a Sandler fan, so of course I'm gonna love it. 344 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: But if you're a Saidler fan, I can tell you. 345 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 1: If you were a Saidler fan and you don't like it, 346 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: check your pulse and your weed. But honestly, I was 347 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: worried when I went to see it. I was like, 348 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: oh God, what is this going to be like, because 349 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: we haven't seen him do com a long time and 350 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: it's so by far surprised. Yeah, once more and more 351 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 1: comedians that like who I respect, were like, hey, this 352 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 1: is dope. Yeah we're saying. I was like, oh, ship, yeah, 353 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: because most of the time you would think, oh, Sandler 354 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: Netflix thing is like just something to fulfill his like 355 00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: nine Picture deally totally crab City really or whatever. I 356 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: just haven't been watching his movies for a long time 357 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: because of how panned they are. But like I've also 358 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: I saw a couple back in the day and I 359 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: was like, Oh, these aren't very good anymore, or maybe 360 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: I'm getting older, Like I didn't know what my relationship 361 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 1: with Adam Sandler was like, had his movies got worse, 362 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: had I just gotten like matured out of them? But no, 363 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: it just turns out like, yeah, this is what I 364 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: was missing, was just being took me right back to it. Yeah, 365 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: he's in a stup business person. He was making dollar 366 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: dollar bills, y'all, and that's all he did. And you know, 367 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: it's funny. I've watched every single Adam Sandler movie, Like 368 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: I've watched every Netflix one too. So my friend, so 369 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 1: Dave rankin the other Reality Vice person, we me and 370 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: him have a long standing Adam Sandler joke about the 371 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 1: fact that we won't see the new movies and theaters, um, 372 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: but then whenever they come on TV we end up 373 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: watching them. We're always liked alright. I mean some of 374 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: the Netflix ones are pretty whack, but like I haven't 375 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: seen the Netflix only ones. I just mean the ones 376 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: from yeah yeah, yeah yeah. We should do a dive 377 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,440 Speaker 1: into like the more recent Adam Sandler movies, like ranking 378 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: them as far as like you're gonna be surprised. What 379 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: would be the the sort of demarcation point. I think 380 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: for me it was. I think it was water Boy 381 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 1: was where I was like, this is still Oka but 382 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: about it. Big Daddy would have been maybe I still 383 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 1: I love Big Daddy. But then I watched her recently 384 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: on to me and I was like, it's so sexy. Yeah, 385 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 1: and I was like, holy sh it, not that you 386 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 1: know what like any nineties yea, they are, but I 387 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: feel like we forget oh yeah no, no. No. Standards 388 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: were so different that when even the women were down 389 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: with fucking hating, women were like, stupid, bitche stupid, you 390 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 1: don't deserve ship. You worked at Hooters earning money with 391 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 1: your dumb body, dumb bitch. But the soundtrack was flameing alright, 392 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna take a quick break and we'll talk about 393 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: the election when we come back. And we're back, and um, so, 394 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: I mean you guys, you guys said you weren't really 395 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: paying that close of attention to the projections as they 396 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: were rolling in had a model that like Nate Silver 397 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: came on after like forty minutes of it like going 398 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 1: in the direction that like Republicans were going to keep 399 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 1: the house where he was like, it looks like our 400 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: models being a little too sensitive, Like I wouldn't freak 401 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: out too much yet, And I was just like, yea, 402 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: you probably killed some people with that, Like people probably 403 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: died of a heart. You almost killed me. Yeah. It 404 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: was when I was looking at like political and a 405 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: few other things, I was like, all right, well, you know, 406 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: a lot of these races are tight. Nothing've been called 407 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: in the wrong direction yet, but like a lot of 408 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: things seemed a little bit tighter than we thought maybe 409 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: at first. And the way you were just like going 410 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: on it was almost it sort of unnerved me because like, wait, 411 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 1: why are they so like wholeheartedly being like okay, well, 412 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 1: now the Democrats have a thirty four percent chance of 413 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: winning the House, and this is absurdity. But luckily we've 414 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: got our gears together. We got we got our feet 415 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 1: on the ground and our head of the clouds, and yes, 416 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: well we were able to find a version that worked. 417 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, that that was pretty wild for them to 418 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: be kind of constantly swinging the probability like that on people. 419 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 1: We have PTSD when it comes to looking at I 420 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: think that's exactly what it is. Like, I mean, and 421 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: people can be like, oh, the Libs they're so weak, 422 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 1: like they act like they were traumatized, but yeah, I mean, 423 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: you can call me weak if you want, but I'm 424 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: legitimately traumatized from two thousands sixteen because everything after it 425 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,719 Speaker 1: has been just as bad as I was worried it 426 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: was going to be. On that. It would have been 427 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: great if we were all just being you know, extreme 428 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: in our predictions and like the wall the world is 429 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 1: ending kind of stuff. But now the world's actually ending. 430 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: They have a date. So we were right two decades. 431 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: Just in terms of kind of early reactions to the results, 432 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: it seems like it was basically a return to Nate 433 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: Silver being right about everything like in his in terms 434 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: of the predictions heading in, it was like, Okay, the 435 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: Democrats will take the House, the Republicans will keep the Senate. 436 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: They were off on a couple of the gubernatorial things, 437 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: but just in general, it wasn't a huge broad repudiation 438 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 1: of Trump in the sense of, you know, there was 439 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: not a blue wave, or at least that's how it's 440 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: being covered that there wasn't a blue wave. But it 441 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: was a you know, successful night for Democrats and basically 442 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,880 Speaker 1: enough for both sides to transmit it is a positive 443 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: night for them. Yeah. Oh man, Hannity was really trying 444 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: to spend this as a positive night. He's like, it 445 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: was actually a great night for yeah, for d j T. 446 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh, really, sir, because I think one thing, 447 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 1: you know, as we look at all the returns, i 448 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: mean we've seen most of them, but like as we 449 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: really kind of get a picture of what actually happened, 450 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: I know, I think Colorado completely flipped their state legislature blue. Like, 451 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: there's been all kinds of little things going on. So 452 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: there's a lot of state level things that we've yet 453 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: to kind of fully you know, wrap our heads around. 454 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: But the idea now that with the Democrats in the majority, 455 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: you know, now they're going to have those chair positions 456 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: and a lot of those committees, which means a whole 457 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: new bevy of investigative and subpoena powers that we didn't 458 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: have because you know, being in the majority is a 459 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: tricky thing because you have to do lame shit like 460 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: oversight or hold the president accountable. And I think one 461 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: thing that like among the many things that not not 462 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: just that the Democrats are finally gonna act as a 463 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: check legislatively from a congres sational standpoint against trumb is 464 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: that now we have the ability to start really calling 465 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 1: people in to answer questions and splain things. And you know, 466 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: a few months ago, we talked about how there was 467 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: a spreadsheet going around that the Republicans are putting together 468 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: being like, Okay, remember all the things that the Democrats 469 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: kept asking us for and committee, like whether it was 470 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 1: around Russia? Are these other things? Well, and we kept 471 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: saying no because we were the majority party. Well, they're 472 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: probably gonna do this to us now because these are 473 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: the things they wanted. And I just kind the Republicans 474 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 1: list of things they're scared that Democrats would start doing 475 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 1: if they want back the House. They called it a 476 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: literal hell list, Okay, And This was all meant to 477 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: basically put the like legal team of the White House 478 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: under alert to be like, prepare yourself for like to 479 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: get produce these records. It's gonna be a nightmare for them. 480 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: But again, not that these things that I'm about to 481 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: list are going to be resolved instantly, but it's good 482 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 1: to know that now we do have some ability to 483 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,880 Speaker 1: begin to look into these things. And I'll just read 484 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: off this list, very short list, just to give you 485 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:03,479 Speaker 1: an idea. So, starting in the top, President Trump's tax returns, 486 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: Trump family business and whether they comply with the constitutions 487 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: of moinment cloud, Trump's dealings with Russia, the payment of 488 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: Stephanie Clifford, ak Stormy Daniels, James Comby's firing, Trump's firing 489 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: of you as attorney's, Trump's proposed transgender band for the military, 490 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary Steve Manuchan's business dealings, White House taffs, personal 491 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: email use cabinets, Secretary travel Another misused Burke's discussions of 492 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: classified information at mar Lago, Jared Kushner's ethics law compliance, 493 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: dismissal of members of the EPA Board of Scientific Counselors, 494 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: the Travel Band family separation policy, hurricane response to Puerto Rico, 495 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: election security and hacking attempts, whiteout security clearances are just 496 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: a few, just a couple things. Those are. That's the 497 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: greatest hits list, that is the past couple of years. 498 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: And again, like I say before, these people on the 499 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: right were able to just obscure this nonsense and buffoonery 500 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: and act like we're the whiny people. But when you 501 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 1: look at this, this reads like a list of things 502 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:57,959 Speaker 1: you probably would care about if you were in Americans. Right, So, 503 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: so we'll see MSMB he had the hot breaking news, 504 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: like the moment after they called the House for the Democrats, 505 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: they were like, and this just in. The Democrats have 506 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: informed us that they are requesting Trump's tax returns effective immediately. 507 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 1: So they basically checked off that first box, like right 508 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: off the bat. But they don't have to, virus doesn't 509 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: have to. Uh looks like they could put up a 510 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: fight about handing over the tax returns to So it's 511 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: none of this gonna matter. Is it just gonna be 512 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: like is it gonna be just like well, you never know. 513 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: That's the thing about the way our democracy or quote 514 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: unquote democracy is set up. You know, there's a lot 515 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: of ways, like if you're cheating like they do, you 516 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 1: stack the courts with judges who, like, again, if you 517 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: had to sue to get these tax returns, might be like, 518 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: I don't think, I'm just worried that this government doesn't 519 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: respect the process. Well, of course not. I mean look 520 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: at all the last minute voter suppression ship that was 521 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 1: going down. Uh, and I wouldn't be optimistic. But again, 522 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: I think what we do have here, though, is that 523 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: we can finally formally begin producing information around these things 524 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: in a way that it isn't just us, you know, 525 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: banging outside the shop window being like please let us in, right. 526 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: I just sworry because we have the information like about 527 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: you know, speaking of disenfranchisement, the Stacy Abrams thing, we 528 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: have the information that the votes were being changed, yeah, 529 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: or at the very least yess are being registration. Yeah, 530 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: all of that. So like, and what what the knowledge 531 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: is out there? I think, yeah, a lot of people 532 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: are encouraging her to not concede that race, because you know, 533 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: you have someone who is running the basically the election 534 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 1: also running. I was just yeah, you can't do both, know, 535 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: You're like, I checked it out. I won everything checks out, 536 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: looks right cool, someone had to wait four and a 537 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: half hours to vote and anyway, I don't know whatever. 538 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: So there's this thing that is very important in political 539 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:55,959 Speaker 1: media coverage with expectations going into it, where counterintuitively, you 540 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: want to set your side up as completely inept heading 541 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: into an event so that when it goes in the 542 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: other direction, you seem like you came out of nowhere. 543 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 1: It's basically going against expectations. Like watching the results come in, 544 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: you know, the only stories, the only races that they 545 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: were covering were the ones that were sort of going 546 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: against expectations, and then you'd get the one that was 547 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: like called that was a foregone conclusion. But I feel 548 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: like that's going to work against the Democrats a little 549 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: bit as well, just in terms of how this midterm 550 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: is covered, because I think there are races that were 551 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: being covered like gilhim in Florida, like Stacey Abraham's, like 552 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: betto or probably the biggest one that didn't go the 553 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: Democrats way. But those would have been kind of upsets 554 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: if you were if you were looking a month ago 555 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 1: at what was its insane it got that close in Texas? Yeah, right, 556 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: And that's the thing I think despite that, I know 557 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: we were really pulling for a Betto to pull off 558 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 1: a upset against Speech and Cruz. Guy, I know you 559 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: love Mayonnai's face, but I just like that. I don't 560 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: know again, but I think there are a lot of 561 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: good takeaways from that. Is that, you know, Betto really 562 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 1: did energize the Democrats in the state and also with 563 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: a very progressive platform in the state like Texas, to 564 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,239 Speaker 1: get that close, that's saying something and who knows if 565 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: we're looking at uh, you know, president of work sounds better, 566 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: but you see, and one of the details that was 567 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 1: kind of being papered over by Republicans on these sort 568 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: of talking head shows is you know, they were like, well, 569 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 1: when Obama had his first midterm, he lost a number 570 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: of like x number of seats, like you guys are 571 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 1: only picking up this many, and when you look at overall, 572 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: like how many House votes, they're predicting it will end 573 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: up between six and ten percent Democratic victory, which is 574 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: a pretty big win. Like Bush beat Ducacus by eight percent, 575 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: Reagan beat Carter by nine percent. Those are seen as 576 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: pretty like definitive and era defining victories. But because it's 577 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 1: like people were going in with this idea that there 578 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 1: might be a blue wave, that sort of everything was 579 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: going to be more left than people predicted heading in. 580 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: But I also think that speaks to all the jerrymandering too, right, 581 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: you know, And that's the same thing we have somehow 582 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: winning to almost buy double digits, but it's this close. 583 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, so again, and that's something that governors could help. 584 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: Uh if you know that if the Democrats had one governor, 585 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 1: they are still winning. We you know, we don't know 586 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: the full picture, but the picture, you know, there's there's 587 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: there's things to be smiled about. A couple of things 588 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 1: are frowned about, but overall, like, you know, we did 589 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: the ship that we had we needed to do at 590 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: the very least, which has gained control of the House. 591 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: But the way the New York Times is covering it 592 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 1: ted Cruz to It's better oh Rourke for Senate as 593 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 1: blue wave fails to reach Texas is their headline for 594 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: that race, which is like, yeah, I don't know, And well, 595 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: Pete Sessions lost, so I don't think they were they 596 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 1: were expecting that in Texas also, so that was another 597 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: I mean, there's pet Sessions as a congressman from Texas, 598 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 1: I think the Dallas area, and you know, he's been 599 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 1: around for a long time. But again, you know, he 600 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: had a challenger coming up against him, very handsome, uh, 601 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 1: a man of color, and he did his ship and 602 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 1: then one so there, you know, Texas, as much as 603 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: they want to, you know, we were over here being like, 604 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: come on, Texas, what the fun is going on? At 605 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,240 Speaker 1: least there's we've seen something awakened in in that state. 606 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,959 Speaker 1: But at the same time, come on, white women voted 607 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: for Ted Cruz. Was that a real stat Yeah, that's 608 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:55,959 Speaker 1: what people were reporting on on the TV. White women 609 00:34:56,040 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 1: in in Texas fucking ain't ship. I don't fucking how 610 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 1: much do you have to hate yourself? Or I mean 611 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: literally who hurt you? Like? I just don't understand. I think, 612 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: you know, I think there are some people who just 613 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: so entrenched in the partisan aspect of it where they're like, 614 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: I'm just I don't care. I'm not gonna be suddenly 615 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: better because all the cool people are like, all the 616 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: young people think he's great. And I'm sure there are 617 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 1: also those people who are problematic, you know, they have 618 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,280 Speaker 1: racist views or other things where they like the president's 619 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 1: agenda and that's why they voted for him. But yeah, 620 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 1: you know, things are moving. Yeah, So what what does 621 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: this mean in terms of like what the Democrats I mean, 622 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,439 Speaker 1: is it basically they'll be able to stall things out 623 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: that Trump is trying to push through. I mean, I'm 624 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 1: not going to get anything through the House obviously, you know. 625 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 1: So what are some examples of things that he got 626 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: through the House during the first two years of his administration, 627 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: like the fucking tax cuts, like the attempts at Obamacare 628 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: repeal those things. Now you have no way to legislatively 629 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: do that. So it's gonna be of executive orders and 630 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 1: ship and lawsuits probably, so the things that literally hurt people. Yeah, yeah, 631 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 1: I mean there are gonna be many ways to inflict damage, 632 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 1: as we found, because he is, you know, unstoppable in 633 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 1: that aspect. But you know, the other thing too is 634 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 1: that the Democrats can now begin to pass bills that 635 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 1: are gonna signal to voters coming up in the next 636 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 1: election what the funk this platform is about. And I 637 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:25,840 Speaker 1: think the other it's a double edged sword because on 638 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: the other side, too, we may really find out how 639 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 1: deeply fractured the Democrat Party is. Where you have a 640 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 1: lot of these younger or freshman income in Congress, people 641 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 1: who like ran on really progressive things, and then you 642 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: have someone like Nancy Pelosi with the speaker's gavel who 643 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: might not be down to do Medicare for all off 644 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,800 Speaker 1: the rip, you know, and and expend all that political 645 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: capital you know, you know, probably more realistically stuff like infrastructure, 646 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 1: prescription drugs, and things like that that are just a 647 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: little bit easier to get even get a little bit 648 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 1: of bipartisan support for. Yeah, things like that. And and 649 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 1: also too, uh, just general things like reverse some of 650 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,760 Speaker 1: the damage that's been done now with the Senate being 651 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,760 Speaker 1: in full on Republican control, that's going to be difficult. 652 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: But again that's why that's how Democrats are gonna make 653 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 1: their case. So like, this is what we're trying to 654 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,799 Speaker 1: do on behalf of people, you know, and then this 655 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: is what's the gunking it up at the top, So 656 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 1: please vote correctly. Yeah, At the same time, I will 657 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 1: just say, going against everything I just said about like 658 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 1: expectations setting, this did just feel like from a gut 659 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 1: level to me, like I was back at a place 660 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: the same place I was at in the aftermath of 661 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 1: the two thousand and sixteen election where it was like, Okay, 662 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,439 Speaker 1: so I can get away from the reality of what 663 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,280 Speaker 1: America is like all I want by you know, reading 664 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: actual journalism and you know, talking to other people who 665 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 1: are paying attention to the news. But there's just this 666 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: like hard, immovable reality that you have to come up 667 00:37:55,960 --> 00:38:00,800 Speaker 1: against every time there's an election. And this just didn't 668 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 1: make me like I started thinking forward and just like 669 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 1: pooped a little bit. I mean, there are definitely encouraging things, 670 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: you know. I don't know the specific detailed numbers of 671 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,879 Speaker 1: you know, turnout, millennial turnout, but you know, there were 672 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:24,839 Speaker 1: huge moves to the left in anywhere people basically had educations. 673 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,919 Speaker 1: It seems like so like suburbs and stuff like that. 674 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 1: And basically how Florida broke down and how a lot 675 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 1: of Texas broke down was basically completely based on, you know, 676 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 1: whether you had a college degree or not, and things 677 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: in counties where people have college degrees really moved to 678 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 1: the left in a significant way. But just you know, 679 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: when you are seeing a charismatic figure like betto or 680 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 1: lose a statewide election, even even if it is like 681 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: read Texas, it's when when he's losing to Ted cruizes 682 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 1: just like, wow, Like I live in a different reality 683 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 1: than a lot of people. Yeah. Yeah. But also this 684 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: year over a women, I think we're elected yea, and 685 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 1: that showing you something too. This is we're trying to 686 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 1: have a government that is a little more representative of 687 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 1: what it looks like. It reminds me of my favorite 688 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 1: tweet that I brought. Oh wow, sweet, but you kind 689 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: of jump in the gun, Mr you can Okay, what 690 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: did you say? Now? This is my friend. Um. Alison 691 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 1: Lippert tweeted this on Twitter and she said this gay 692 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 1: kid never imagined that her hometown would elect Charise David's, 693 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 1: an openly gay woman, as the first Native American woman 694 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:46,359 Speaker 1: to Congress. Thanks for giving me new hope, Kansas and 695 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: a picture of her as a little kill gay kid. Um. 696 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:55,359 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think that's something that's giving me hope. Yeah. 697 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: I had the first I think Latina elected to Congress 698 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 1: from Texas. You had the first two Muslim American women 699 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 1: in Minnesota and Michigan. Yeah. Iana Pressley was the first 700 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 1: black woman elected to Congress from Massachusetts finally. So yeah, 701 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 1: a lot of first and yeah, I just hope this 702 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 1: is more indicative and like when a lot of the 703 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: ballot measures that passed to like with restoring voting rights 704 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: to felons like in Florida and things like that. There 705 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 1: are moments where I was like, how are you voting 706 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 1: for that? And then the progressive guy didn't win, and 707 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,959 Speaker 1: I get how some people, you know there some vote 708 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 1: just straight down the ticket for some things. But it 709 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 1: was also it was there were more heartening examples two 710 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: of sort of shifts happening on smaller levels. Yeah, and 711 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: even the bed old thing I was talking about how 712 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: in the Texas governor race, the Republican they called it 713 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: like with pcent reporting just because it was like, oh, 714 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 1: this guy's crushing the Republican is winning by such a 715 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: wide margin. But enough people, enough Republicans defected to be like, 716 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: I mean, look at these two as like who are 717 00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,320 Speaker 1: you going to vote for? Uh that? You know, maybe 718 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 1: that is something to take a little bit of Solacen 719 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 1: and Michigan welcomed to the legalized weed club too, And 720 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 1: now Betto is free to run for president. I guess, 721 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: uh where whereas the Senate would need him uh to 722 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 1: to keep that seat since you wouldn't want it to 723 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,360 Speaker 1: go to a special election. So we'll we'll see what 724 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 1: happens there. Uh, let's let's just a little wish fulfillment 725 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: here at the end of this segment. Of the different 726 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 1: things that Miles read off, of the different house investigations 727 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 1: that can be launched, what is the one that you're 728 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 1: most looking forward to? Oh? God, what is the most 729 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:43,800 Speaker 1: There are so many? How can you pick one? The 730 00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 1: family separation policy and the travel band. There's just gonna 731 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 1: be emails behind the scenes on those that, like you 732 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 1: can just foya and it's just gonna be like wild Actually, 733 00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 1: hurricane response to Puerto Rico, that's my that's that's gonna 734 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:04,879 Speaker 1: be un unbelievable. I think also finding out about what 735 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 1: Trump is doing with all these Chinese trademarks and other 736 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 1: business things that are going on, I think could be 737 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: rem Yeah, the emolument stuff. I think also, you know, 738 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 1: anything around Jared Kushner, because we know he's shady's fun 739 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: So I don't know. Honestly, they're all I'm excited of 740 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: everything again. But I don't mean to say this as 741 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 1: if because of this happens, you know, they're going to 742 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,800 Speaker 1: be marching Jared out in the in the prison orange jumpsuit. 743 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: Or anything like that. But again, it'll be good to 744 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 1: bring some truth out around these things and begin to 745 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 1: call people forward to be accountable, especially people who are 746 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: running departments like FEMA and things like that, and be like, okay, 747 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 1: what what what went on? Exactly? My man. I think 748 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 1: I'm most excited about the ones that like are hurting people, 749 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 1: like what you were saying, Jack, the most directly. You know, 750 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 1: they are all hurting people, obviously, but like the direct 751 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 1: depths from like the horrible response in Puerto Rico and yeah, 752 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:04,360 Speaker 1: and for sure family separation, yeah, or have all the 753 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 1: people in the army come up, who like whose own 754 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,359 Speaker 1: assessment of this migrant caravan. We're like, yeah, this is 755 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 1: not an actual threat, and have those people come up 756 00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,800 Speaker 1: say that out loud and you know, help people realize 757 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 1: what's going on a little bit. But again, yeah, this 758 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 1: could be wish fulfillment and wishful thinking. And we're just 759 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,720 Speaker 1: delirious because we're watching the news all day. Trump's dealings 760 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,319 Speaker 1: with Russia. I'm I'm excited for that too. I feel 761 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,279 Speaker 1: like we were on hold there for a little bit. 762 00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: It's like that part in the Hamilton's where they're like, 763 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: can we get back to politics. Good, Oh, I'm not 764 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 1: doing that. Well. I haven't been able to see Hamilton's, 765 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:42,319 Speaker 1: so you know, it's like, okay, it reminds me of 766 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: the original cast of Hamilton's, not so much the one 767 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: that's out. Did you not see? Oh yeah, Lynne is 768 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 1: a great friend of mine. Remind just performed it in 769 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 1: my living and I was like, oh my god, this 770 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: is so embarrassing. And he's like, Sofia, look, I gotta 771 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:01,279 Speaker 1: just tell you this is going to be big, and 772 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, I guess. But yeah, again, we don't know. 773 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. That. The other thing is because 774 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 1: just because this is happening doesn't mean Trump isn't gonna 775 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 1: do everything in his power to avoid being held accountable 776 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 1: or protecting the people around him. We were enabling him. 777 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,480 Speaker 1: So but again, the very least we have some kind 778 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 1: of a check now, right, they don't. He doesn't have 779 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 1: just an entirely Republican House and Senate. But it does 780 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 1: seem like the Muller investigation went quiet for about three 781 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 1: weeks there and stuff was happening behind the scenes. Well, yeah, 782 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: because he was I think the whole deal is he 783 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 1: wasn't gonna do anything that was gonna become a distraction 784 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 1: during an election. So that's when we'll see now, because 785 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 1: he's been in the lab, you know, in the on 786 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: the cover of darkness, so we'll see what he's cooked up. Yeah, 787 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:48,880 Speaker 1: and I do think, you know, we've talked in the 788 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 1: past couple of weeks about how Trump's approval rating has 789 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 1: slowly inched up a little bit, and I do think 790 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,919 Speaker 1: that probably has something to do with the fact that 791 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: he's only in the headlines for like on his own terms, 792 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,320 Speaker 1: and there's not just this steady drip of Muller news 793 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:07,000 Speaker 1: coming out where it's like this, look at this, Like 794 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 1: even though people are like, oh, the Russia stuff is 795 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 1: just a distraction and it doesn't affect Middle America, I 796 00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 1: still think that when you have this like steady drip 797 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:20,920 Speaker 1: of stories that just show clear evidence that the president 798 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 1: is corrupt, like that has to hurt his approval rating. Yeah, well, 799 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 1: I think it went it dipped again though before today. 800 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, but I guess then like ten points underwater range, 801 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:35,400 Speaker 1: like just more people ten percent disapprove of him than approved. Well, 802 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: he seems very confident because you know, he tweeted just 803 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 1: late at night on Tuesday after the Democrats took control 804 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: of the House, and I mentioned all those things that happened, 805 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:53,759 Speaker 1: this dude was tremendous success tonight, Thank you doll. M course. 806 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 1: But then, you know, but then he'll probably wake up 807 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 1: at like three in the morning, should his pants and 808 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:01,360 Speaker 1: start being like, Paul Ryan is a little fucking loser 809 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 1: and I should have never trusted him, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 810 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 1: I was right, which I do think he was. It 811 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 1: turns out because like all the places where he went, 812 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 1: they did end up winning the Senate seat by more 813 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 1: than was predicted. And yeah, racism still works in America. 814 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 1: Who knew what? Yeah, by the way, I don't know. Uh, 815 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: maybe we can dig into this a little bit more later. 816 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,400 Speaker 1: But you know, the whole idea of not talking about 817 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 1: something having a blackout period on a story that's bad 818 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 1: for the president in the run up to an election 819 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 1: seems like that in itself is a you know, is 820 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:42,160 Speaker 1: a bias. It's not telling a story that is happening. 821 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 1: And the same thing happened, right, and Komy kept himself 822 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:48,759 Speaker 1: quiet because he knew Fox News was going to lose 823 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 1: its ship in the run up to two thousand and 824 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:55,759 Speaker 1: sixteen and actively like made it seem like the investigation 825 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 1: into Russian meddling on behalf of Trump was less of 826 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 1: a thing because he didn't want to be accused of bias. 827 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 1: But being like aware of only one side of the 828 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 1: bias is in itself bias. Well, yeah, and that's what's 829 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 1: led to the rise of right wing extremism. Violence too, 830 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: is because that's another thing that they try and defend 831 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 1: and be like, oh, why are you just trying to 832 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,320 Speaker 1: pick on these people because they have guns and a 833 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:21,919 Speaker 1: violent agenda, military weapons and blew up the Oklahoma city 834 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 1: But you know what I mean, But it's true, And 835 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 1: like they there was an article talking about how that 836 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: did affect UH law enforcements ability to like seriously assess 837 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: those threats because people were going to try and you 838 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 1: know that they would face criticism for doing. We're doing 839 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,480 Speaker 1: a whole section on that this week because, yeah, that 840 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 1: article underlined a lot of stuff we've been saying for 841 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:44,120 Speaker 1: a while that we've been saying, thank you, all right, 842 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna take a quick break and then we'll talk 843 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:59,759 Speaker 1: about how aliens are coming for us all and we're 844 00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 1: bad back, and so there might be alien life terms 845 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:06,359 Speaker 1: if I'm reading this threat, I know, I'm a little 846 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: might be story now, Well, no, I only I exhale 847 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,440 Speaker 1: because the originally, I think we wanted to talk about 848 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,279 Speaker 1: it in the event that things went horribly awful and 849 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,400 Speaker 1: we're just like whatever, due to an alien ship might 850 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:19,279 Speaker 1: just come kill us all and take us out of 851 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: our misery. Muammuah. Okay, that's that's pretty basic to think 852 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:28,080 Speaker 1: that the aliens would want to kill us smile. But 853 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: they are evolved. They are going to take us with them. 854 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 1: Oh you're right. Okay, my bad, my bad. Sorry for 855 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 1: the back quash. But but Jack was pronouncing the name 856 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:41,479 Speaker 1: of this object, this foreign object that they have detected. Sorry, 857 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 1: did I say something? I thought I just blacked out 858 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 1: there for a second. Okay. So to set the story up, y'all, 859 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 1: what happened was like a while back, I think a 860 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:56,000 Speaker 1: year ago or something. Yeah, the astronomers they detected this 861 00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:59,880 Speaker 1: like gigantic object that was very sort of odd looking, 862 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:05,839 Speaker 1: dubbed Jack as you pronounced ah muamua orma or whatever. Hey, 863 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 1: whatever you wanta all right? Uh? Yeah. They say it 864 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 1: arrived from interstellar space beyond the bubble like region that 865 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 1: demarcates the Sun's domain. Yeah, it looks like it looks 866 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 1: like any Claire or a lady finger. Yeah, I think 867 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 1: is what you would call that. But the thing that 868 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,680 Speaker 1: got people sort of interested in it is that, especially 869 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:31,160 Speaker 1: these people at the Harvard Smithsonian Center for astro Physics. 870 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 1: So you know, there's not they're not just lying to 871 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 1: you that they're saying, you know, first like, oh, maybe 872 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 1: there's a comment, but they have a very different theory. 873 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 1: So some of these astro physicists claim that Omoamua could 874 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 1: be a quote fully operational probe sent intentionally to Earth 875 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 1: vicinity by an alien civilization. Omamua deviates from a trajectory 876 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,919 Speaker 1: that is solely dictated by the Sun's gravity. This could 877 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,839 Speaker 1: have been the result of commentary outgassing, but there's no 878 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:01,480 Speaker 1: evidence for a commentary tale around. Did moreover comments change 879 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 1: the period of their spin and no such change was 880 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:07,880 Speaker 1: detected for omama. So they're saying, you know, this thing 881 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,719 Speaker 1: is moving around not like anything else. We know what's 882 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,239 Speaker 1: going on here. Yeah, And there's also also like the 883 00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:15,880 Speaker 1: one of you thought it looked like a dildo and 884 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,400 Speaker 1: the other one like in a Claire, it's like a 885 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:22,840 Speaker 1: free horny situation. Depends on who's got dicks on the 886 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:26,560 Speaker 1: brain and who's got there's a you know, truth be told, 887 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:29,120 Speaker 1: there's no amount of marshmallow fluff you can put on 888 00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 1: a dildo first taste good. So they're they're talking about 889 00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:36,920 Speaker 1: it seeing potentially a light sale. What is that something 890 00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 1: where you're using the speed of light to like transport 891 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:43,239 Speaker 1: yourself at the speed of light. Is that the idea? Well, 892 00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 1: they're saying that they again, this is so science, and 893 00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:49,319 Speaker 1: I did so terribly in science in school. I had 894 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: to cheat to pass. Okay, so I'm sorry, I'm little 895 00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 1: confession for y'all. But the way that it's moving, they're saying. 896 00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 1: Another explanation is that the quote extra force exerted on 897 00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:02,520 Speaker 1: and well by sunlight, that is what's moving it. And 898 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:06,279 Speaker 1: for that to be possible that the actual object would 899 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 1: have to be less than a millimeter in thickness, like 900 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 1: a sale. That so they're saying that this may be 901 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:14,319 Speaker 1: some kind of light sale produced by an alien civilization, 902 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,640 Speaker 1: but it's also kind of a thing that we're kind 903 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:21,600 Speaker 1: of working on on this planet too with h Yeah. Anyway, 904 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 1: first of a light sale, I'm pretty embarrassing. More broke 905 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:29,480 Speaker 1: boy space dart. It actually also comes to the lights. 906 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:34,360 Speaker 1: That's actually the color of your car is light sale. 907 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,120 Speaker 1: One of the theories that I've heard. And by the way, 908 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:40,800 Speaker 1: we'll we'll talk about people who are debunking this because 909 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:47,879 Speaker 1: the scientific community loves themselves a backlash. Yeah, well let's 910 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:52,480 Speaker 1: really look at this object. I mean, essentially, the point 911 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,640 Speaker 1: that somebody made in debunking this was just that a 912 00:51:55,800 --> 00:52:00,600 Speaker 1: theory is just something that you can't prove incorrect route, right, 913 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:03,760 Speaker 1: which is true. It's one of like a thousand possibilities. 914 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 1: But this is a very interesting possibility, so it's worth 915 00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:10,480 Speaker 1: talking about, and uh, you know, it helps explain a 916 00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:14,000 Speaker 1: couple of things that haven't been explained otherwise. But a 917 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:17,160 Speaker 1: theory I saw somewhere was that this is like part 918 00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 1: of a ship that has been like cast off from 919 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 1: another craft that has been like now slowing down and 920 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 1: its approach to Earth. Because like if you had like 921 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 1: our spacecraft, you know, you like shed different parts of 922 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 1: it that are like powering it as you're going up. 923 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,279 Speaker 1: So if you shed something that was like part of 924 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,839 Speaker 1: a spacecraft as you were like slowing down to approach Earth, 925 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,320 Speaker 1: then that thing would go flying by the Solar System 926 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:48,600 Speaker 1: before like the ship actually arrived because they would be 927 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 1: down so like we might be seeing what was actually 928 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 1: coming here. And so that's them ditching the rocket booster, right, 929 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:59,920 Speaker 1: that's the rocket booster that they ditched. The real deals 930 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 1: coming four Um, that sounds like independence And now I'm 931 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:08,200 Speaker 1: it's like I feel like the way you look at 932 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,879 Speaker 1: Aliens is people the same way people were like optimistic 933 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 1: about the election before and after. There are groups of 934 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 1: us who are like, yeah, baby, any signal means Aliens 935 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 1: or means Hillary is gonna win. And then there are 936 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,960 Speaker 1: other people are like, no, even though I'm an expert, 937 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 1: I need the fucking alien to come down on the 938 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 1: planet and me to shake its hand for me to acknowledge. 939 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:33,920 Speaker 1: I just also hope that they love O. That's the 940 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:37,319 Speaker 1: only thing that will be the ultimate ninety fiance is 941 00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:44,160 Speaker 1: coming down to Earth. Idea. Ever, Jack like Bleak was 942 00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:47,680 Speaker 1: way different than we were first chatting online. Right he 943 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 1: said he was a multi cell organism. But actually when 944 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 1: I met him, but I was like, I thought, on Earth, 945 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 1: you guys have gold and go on vacations. This is 946 00:53:57,239 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 1: not what I signed up for. God with flowers, where 947 00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 1: are my flowers? Anyway, we have to figure out how 948 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:09,000 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about this show. One possibility that 949 00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:12,520 Speaker 1: I've always thought was like more likely that I didn't 950 00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:15,520 Speaker 1: understand why people don't talk about more is that like 951 00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,959 Speaker 1: we would encounter an alien civilization that had like died 952 00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:21,040 Speaker 1: off a million years ago, and we're just like seeing 953 00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:24,319 Speaker 1: evidence of it coming to us through space. And that's 954 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:28,240 Speaker 1: something that I saw mentioned while people were discussing this report, 955 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 1: that like it could be a long ago civilization and 956 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 1: it's just like passing by their space ship is only 957 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 1: making it to us now. But like that would be 958 00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:42,960 Speaker 1: fucking dope if we found out about an entire civilizations 959 00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 1: like history and entire species history, but we didn't have 960 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 1: to deal with like getting killed off by them. We 961 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 1: just got to read an entire history. But wouldn't it 962 00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 1: be crazy if it was just our history?
