Speaker 3: like the last basically a month and a half, so
Speaker 3: to uh. I also learned from him, but not not today. Yeah,
Speaker 3: learned this before.
Speaker 1: Yeah, is like finance TikTok Like there, they've got heavy,
Speaker 1: heavy meme action in finance. Yeah.
Speaker 3: You know, Twitter kind of gotten taken over to by finance,
Speaker 3: and I think also a lot of social media. They
Speaker 3: have their own little pool of memes. I mean, I
Speaker 3: don't know how much of it is fun.
Speaker 1: But your boyfriend, so congratulations, Yeah, yes, I am engaged
Speaker 1: that detailed detective. You are financed, speaking of finance, you
Speaker 1: are financed. Wow, congratulations.
Speaker 2: Ye was good though it was it was a like
Speaker 2: roller coaster. It was really fun.
Speaker 3: I did my pr person did like scam I should say,
Speaker 3: allegedly scam a bunch of us because we're trying to
Speaker 3: deal with this A bunch of clients had the situation happened.
Speaker 2: But so that wasn't cool, Like.
Speaker 4: You hired a publicist who like just didn't follow through
Speaker 4: on the ship you paid them to do.
Speaker 3: Basically, Yeah, I paid like fifteen hundred pounds and he
Speaker 3: charged other people this much and then like he Basically
Speaker 3: what we discovered is he's allegedly funding funded his own
Speaker 3: show with our money because he still did a show
Speaker 3: on day one and a friend he emailed. He messaged
Speaker 3: me on WhatsApp because I was trying to get a response,
Speaker 3: but he emailed a bunch of people the same copy
Speaker 3: and paste same. Basically due to like stress and health
Speaker 3: concerns from doing my own show, I cannot deliver like
Speaker 3: so sorry. I intend to pay you guys back at
Speaker 3: the end of September, which is also when box office
Speaker 3: comes in. But we tried to get more info from
Speaker 3: him and we get the red flag kind of feeling
Speaker 3: that he might just be putting it off. Apparently he
Speaker 3: was Scotland government some money, so we may not get
Speaker 3: the money back anyways.
Speaker 4: Scot who doesn't who you really have you traveled if
Speaker 4: you don't own the Scottish government some man.
Speaker 3: Oh But also this it got even worse because I
Speaker 3: came home and I was looking him up and curious
Speaker 3: to look up like stuff in old Facebook forums for
Speaker 3: Edinburgh because that's how I found him. And apparently he
Speaker 3: did like a whole show and yellow face that wow
Speaker 3: from years ago. But I'm like okay, Like so there's like.
Speaker 1: Not the character he was doing characters. It was just
Speaker 1: probably not a yeah yeah, they were bowing a lot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: my god. We are going to get to know you
Speaker 1: a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going
Speaker 1: to tell the listeners a couple of the things that
Speaker 1: we're talking about today. We all have to learn the
Speaker 1: name Mark Robinson now because uh, you know, he's he's
Speaker 1: like he was known. I guess, yeah, we're terrible discussion
Speaker 1: in North Carolina lieutenant governor who's straight up like a
Speaker 1: Holocaust denier, anti semi, anti women and everything science, anti yeah,
Speaker 1: everything anti blackie. But anyways, there's some people who used
Speaker 1: to he was basically like the norm of Cheers. If
Speaker 1: Cheers was a twenty four hour video porn store where
Speaker 1: people go to jack off. He was there every day
Speaker 1: of the week and they're always glad you came. Literally exactly.
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about, speaking of finance on TikTok.
Speaker 1: There was a TikTok trend over the long weekend that
Speaker 1: really fucked a bunch of people over. So we'll talk
Speaker 1: about that plenty more. But first, t t we do
Speaker 1: like to ask our guest, what is something from your
Speaker 1: search history that's revealing about who you are?
Speaker 2: Okay, this was from yesterday.
Speaker 3: I searched fake clothing website data harvesting because I don't
Speaker 3: know if you guys already talk about this on.
Speaker 1: The show, but you're trying to start one of those yeah,
Speaker 1: cloth harvesting guys. I have a Pi.
Speaker 3: Mere years and your wallet. No, but I've recently just
Speaker 3: because just trying to shop online. I'm okay, I've been
Speaker 3: looking at wedding outfits and reception dresses and it's all
Speaker 3: insanely expensive. And I was had a friend who did
Speaker 3: hers on like taubaw, which is the Chinese website, but
Speaker 3: she's Chinese so she hadn't made and I know that's
Speaker 3: a way to do it, but I get so like
Speaker 3: my Chinese isn't perfect, and like it's sort of sort
Speaker 3: of still foreign to me to shop on those sites
Speaker 3: because there are a lot of scams. So anyways, I've
Speaker 3: been getting a lot of ads for like sites that
Speaker 3: like this doesn't this looks like a really beautiful website
Speaker 3: and it's like, oh, made in Frankfurt or whatever, and
Speaker 3: it's like it looks legit, and then it's like the
Speaker 3: prices don't make sense, like sixty nine dollars for you know,
Speaker 3: a gown whatever. So I've discovered, as I'm sure you
Speaker 3: guys can probably guess, a lot of these are fake
Speaker 3: sites from China, but I've dug deeper and I'm actually
Speaker 3: surprised there are not a lot of US like articles
Speaker 3: about this, but like the Guardian did an article about
Speaker 3: it about how like there's a Chinese network behind like
Speaker 3: sort of like they're a little more organized. They create
Speaker 3: these like fake fronts to data harvest and some of
Speaker 3: them will just some of sometimes they're smaller where they'll
Speaker 3: actually try to make a version of the shirt that
Speaker 3: you bought that's completely fake, and you know they put
Speaker 3: a picture of a.
Speaker 2: Designer right, But there's full on ones.
Speaker 1: I saw one.
Speaker 2: I was like this, I google like it was called
Speaker 2: v val. I was like, is this legit?
Speaker 3: And all those pictures were taken from another fast fashion
Speaker 3: site called baby Boo, which is also pretty like data harvesting.
Speaker 3: But they'll just straight up Instagram. They advertise on Instagram
Speaker 3: and then you put your credit card info in. Sometimes
Speaker 3: they'll send it, sometimes they won't, but it's all just
Speaker 3: stolen photos.
Speaker 2: It's all just harvesting, right.
Speaker 3: Anyways, I was very surprised by this how big it is,
Speaker 3: because I've had the hunch that this is happening. But
Speaker 3: I'm not seeing a lot of literacy.
Speaker 1: On this in against America.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, sorry, well I saw so apparently fraud
Speaker 3: online fraud went up, shopping front went up thirty percent
Speaker 3: in the US and four three percent in the UK
Speaker 3: from twenty twenty two, and that's pretty sizable. So I'm
Speaker 3: very like, Yeah, so anyways, if you guys know what
Speaker 3: cheap wedding dress, feel free to send them my own.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I know, I can send you some cup
Speaker 1: I way.
Speaker 2: Maybe one of those jerseys behind you Miles.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, this was big enough you might be
Speaker 1: able to cut into a gown. Yeah. But for sure,
Speaker 1: for sure, there they are those Halloween stores that are
Speaker 1: about to start popping up that you can get a
Speaker 1: really cheap oh yeah, wedding dress.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Frankenstein Haunted Bride.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was a bride when I was like seven
Speaker 3: years old. Maybe I'll find that costume and try to.
Speaker 2: Slim down.
Speaker 1: Now to get to my seven year old body too.
Speaker 1: But yeah, they're basically making the Internet unusable. It feels
Speaker 1: like we're I don't know if it's by design or
Speaker 1: if it just like got away from them, but well,
Speaker 1: I think it's also just they're really and I think
Speaker 1: this touches on the story we talk about later. It's
Speaker 1: there's a mix between like the technology getting better and
Speaker 1: people's financial circumstances becoming worse and worse. So the desperation
Speaker 1: lends itself for people to be like, oh fuck, thank god,
Speaker 1: I can buy this thing for like a fraction of
Speaker 1: the price, and then it's like, oh, wait, they've taken
Speaker 1: my data or that other like a lot of like
Speaker 1: app optimization sort of scams where people think they're getting
Speaker 1: a job, Like I know a couple of people who
Speaker 1: fell into that. We're just people are desperate for work,
Speaker 1: and they're like, you can you help us with app optimization,
Speaker 1: but you end up like giving them crypto to unlock
Speaker 1: more money that they send. It's like really fucked up. Sorry, guys,
Speaker 1: I have like some stuff to undo real quick. Yeah shit, no,
Speaker 1: but you're right.
Speaker 3: It's well because even on LinkedIn, I get messages from
Speaker 3: a lot of like sometimes they're legit, but I instantly
Speaker 3: don't trust anything I get if I'm not reaching out.
Speaker 3: And there was one like I did a gig like
Speaker 3: last year for a Chinese company that ended up being
Speaker 3: like a real job, but there was like the way
Speaker 3: they did it, there was a lot of data involved
Speaker 3: with how they run their content, so like it's set
Speaker 3: off my alarms, but the company is legit. It's just
Speaker 3: they also have like a kind of a more fan
Speaker 3: fic sort of literature publishing, so that's how they get
Speaker 3: all their data because there's billions of readers in China,
Speaker 3: and then they like create content that way. But just
Speaker 3: the way they reach out, like so many of these messages,
Speaker 3: they're just like, oh, you know, it just feels everything
Speaker 3: feels so fake and I don't A part of this
Speaker 3: is like maybe I'm becoming illiterate in this, like and
Speaker 3: I do want to. I feel like take classes on
Speaker 3: like data because I think it's gonna pass me by
Speaker 3: and I'll be like an old MAGA person being like, bro,
Speaker 3: the world's changing because I don't know, Like I don't
Speaker 3: imagine everyone is this confused, but I feel so confused sometimes.
Speaker 1: But I like, yeah, it's not our fault. I like
Speaker 1: there's just no. This the way the system is set
Speaker 1: up is that there's actually nobody looking out for consumers.
Speaker 1: So it's that this isn't normal. Like the way that
Speaker 1: it's set up now is the result of like only
Speaker 1: corporations having the government like working with them. No consumer
Speaker 1: you know, there are consumer like organizations that are set
Speaker 1: up to protect consumers, and they're like drastically underfunded, and
Speaker 1: so yeah, we're just like in a atmosphere that's like
Speaker 1: completely one sided, and you know, it's totally bent in
Speaker 1: the direction of whoever can make money off of a thing,
Speaker 1: and that thing happens to be consumers and like just
Speaker 1: private individuals who have nobody taken care of them.
Speaker 3: Now, it's like what you were talking about, like like
Speaker 3: price gouging too, because you should just I mean in
Speaker 3: my head, I'm like, I'll just go to the retail stores,
Speaker 3: I know, but those prices are so expensive, so you
Speaker 3: do get stuck in like, oh, is there a newer
Speaker 3: brand that might ben yeah, something we like, but then
Speaker 3: some of these are so low it's just sets off
Speaker 3: alarm bells for me. But but you're right, it's like
Speaker 3: people getting desperate, like oh, I'll buy a designer knock
Speaker 3: off because it's cheaper.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's completely fake and.
Speaker 1: It's just yeah, and it's tough. But didn't. Yeah, there
Speaker 1: there are many people willing to separate you from your money. Yeah,
Speaker 1: very very low price. What is something the you think
Speaker 1: is underrated?
Speaker 7: Okay?
Speaker 2: So for these, I asked my fiance because I feel
Speaker 2: like I've done a.
Speaker 1: Lot of these.
Speaker 2: So these are his answers? Wow, I said, what things underrated?
Speaker 1: Your did your homework? Okay?
Speaker 2: He said, okay, Well, I don't know if you like
Speaker 2: these answers. I said, what's underrated? He said my dick.
Speaker 1: Okay, and then overrated?
Speaker 3: He said, Ai, So look, well I needed It's fine.
Speaker 3: This is first his first time answering these questions.
Speaker 1: Uh huh.
Speaker 2: We'll get them to a more new ways place.
Speaker 1: Under there are two waits. So underrated his dick overrated? AI?
Speaker 5: AI? AI?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Can can? Is he available to speak over in the
Speaker 1: room with us? The room in the room? Okay?
Speaker 3: For the record, I don't think his dick is underrated
Speaker 3: depending on who's writing it. I feel like I've rated
Speaker 3: his dick quite favorite properly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but when did that cost some alarm bells?
Speaker 4: You're like, hold on is there are there other people
Speaker 4: who are involved in the adjudication in valuation upset dick
Speaker 4: that I don't know, maybe his doctor.
Speaker 2: Maybe his doctor's raiding his dick.
Speaker 1: Yeah, doctor has so many notes on my dick. It's
Speaker 1: so annoying.
Speaker 4: I'm just like he said, he said, I wish I
Speaker 4: had more hands. So you give that four thumbs down,
Speaker 4: and it's like it's an old Chippell show line. Why
Speaker 4: would you say that about me?
Speaker 1: Doctor? Could be better, could be better? I mean, look,
Speaker 1: you want pointers. Yeah, so a TikTok finance person thinks
Speaker 1: AI is overrated. We we happened to concur on this podcast.
Speaker 1: We're not We're not big AI fans here?
Speaker 2: What what?
Speaker 1: What are? What are the reasons for AI being overrated?
Speaker 3: Yeah, he does have more legit reasons for that, But
Speaker 3: it sounds like an easy line to say. But part
Speaker 3: I think part of it is just I guess the
Speaker 3: short version is sort of what we're talking about, Like
Speaker 3: most people don't use AI. For most people talking about
Speaker 3: how exciting AI is aren't using AI in the way
Speaker 3: that it should. Like everyone's just talking in the chat
Speaker 3: GPT or having them right an essay. But it's really
Speaker 3: the people using AI are the villains, right, like these
Speaker 3: fake websites data harvesting, But most of us don't know
Speaker 3: how to use it like that, And so it did
Speaker 3: make me think, though, if we all got more literate,
Speaker 3: we could be using AI to fight things like that.
Speaker 2: But I think we're so far right now.
Speaker 4: More interested, I mean, because we're talking about finance. Is
Speaker 4: there a way to invest in your partner's dick if
Speaker 4: it's underrated?
Speaker 1: Interesting? Yeah, that's there's underrated? Yeah, nd Yeah.
Speaker 2: I'll consult with him. Yeah, okay, you want to get
Speaker 2: in the ground floor of his dick.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I'm always looking for I'm always looking
Speaker 1: for the next thing, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: We are looking to take his dick public.
Speaker 1: Immediately. Fortunately, there are some laws. Yeah, I went to
Speaker 1: the New York to take my dick public.
Speaker 4: They arrested me immediately because you're not supposed to do
Speaker 4: that with the gabble.
Speaker 1: With Yeah, I mean, that would be an impressive dick,
Speaker 1: if you could ring the bell with his dick. Yeah.
Speaker 2: We'll be discussing this in congress.
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, All right, let's take a quick break. We'll
Speaker 1: come back and we'll talk about another person's Dick Lieutenant
Speaker 1: Governor Mark Robinson, We'll be right back, and we're back.
Speaker 1: We're back, and it's not been a great week for
Speaker 1: Republican extremist and bootleg VHS porno connoisseur Mark Robinson. Dude, Like,
Speaker 1: just to run down the horrific things that have been
Speaker 1: said by him would take too much time, and like,
Speaker 1: just trust us that he's like, like we said, up time,
Speaker 1: anti semi misogynist, anti science, anti LGBTQ.
Speaker 4: Plus, anti MLK, anti MLK, not a fan, he's got
Speaker 4: it all. We touched on him, I feel like early
Speaker 4: in his campaign because this guy was saying such wild
Speaker 4: shit or like yeah, they think they're gonna win with
Speaker 4: this nonsense, and just purely be like, well he's black, maga,
Speaker 4: that might help. No, there is one clip I'll play
Speaker 4: this one thing that happened in July where he was
Speaker 4: just saying, like, you know, liberals just might have to die,
Speaker 4: people might just have to die in talking about political violence.
Speaker 4: This is like at the end of June, and he's
Speaker 4: giving a bunch of weird examples from like World War
Speaker 4: Two and sort of correlating that with like and yeah, man,
Speaker 4: if people fuck with us, maybe like evil just has
Speaker 4: to be destroyed. Here's Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson with a
Speaker 4: nuanced take on a good versus evil.
Speaker 7: When the Japanese bob Pearl Harbor, what do we do?
Speaker 7: We flew to Japan and we killed the Japanese army
Speaker 7: in night. We didn't even quibble about it. I didn't
Speaker 7: start this fight. You did. You wanted to be left alone.
Speaker 7: You should left me alone. We didn't argue and capitulate
Speaker 7: and talk about, well, maybe we shouldn't fight. The Nazis
Speaker 7: that hard, No, they're bad.
Speaker 1: Killed him.
Speaker 4: I will note that he did do a fundraiser with
Speaker 4: a Nazi though, So yeah, he seems to have mixed yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: he vacillates on that point.
Speaker 7: Some liberals somewhere is gonna say that sounds awful, too bad.
Speaker 1: The liberals is gonna like, I want to kill you.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna like it.
Speaker 1: The liberal is gonna say it sounds awful that he's
Speaker 1: being mean to not man.
Speaker 7: If you want to some folks need killing, Okay, it's
Speaker 7: time for somebody to say it anyway.
Speaker 1: So that's who was he talking about in that moment?
Speaker 1: Who what folks need killing?
Speaker 4: It was essentially about political violence, like where we shouldn't
Speaker 4: be shamed over this idea of political violence.
Speaker 1: It was kind of like his inroad here to that
Speaker 1: this is not long before the Trump assassination. Well it's
Speaker 1: like two weeks before. Yeah, the mainstream media like ben
Speaker 1: tover backwards to be like Biden made a metaphor about
Speaker 1: putting Trump in a bullseye? Could that have been? It
Speaker 1: could one of the thing that remember when Trump did
Speaker 1: that with a judge. No, all right, never mind, keep
Speaker 1: it moving.
Speaker 3: It's still it's all like very like still like white
Speaker 3: supremacist dog whistling. But they when did they get very
Speaker 3: excited when they're like, oh, he's a black man, so
Speaker 3: you can say all these things. But ultimately he's saying
Speaker 3: all these things.
Speaker 2: We know what.
Speaker 3: He's a champion the message of white supremacy. Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: I think that's why they love him so much. But yeah,
Speaker 3: that's wild.
Speaker 1: He called reports of the Holocaust hogwash. But yeah, to
Speaker 1: your point, he like does it in a folksy way
Speaker 1: like hogwash. It's not like really like Holocaust denialism is
Speaker 1: not a big deal if you use like good old fashioned,
Speaker 1: folksy down home where it's like hoppy cock and indoorsed.
Speaker 1: A host remarks that Jewish bankers are one of the
Speaker 1: four horsemen of the apocalypse, and Donald Trump again has
Speaker 1: full throated endorsed him and been like, this guy is
Speaker 1: the future of our party. Anyways, he's he has these
Speaker 1: very strong beliefs because he's, you know, a born again
Speaker 1: Christian who just like can't stomach like the filth that
Speaker 1: he lives amid rock and so h. It was a
Speaker 1: surprise to all of us. I know, it was a
Speaker 1: big shock to me that a new report has come
Speaker 1: out alleging that Robinson was a regular at two twenty
Speaker 1: four hour porn stores back in the nineties and early
Speaker 1: two thousand's, when you know such a business could actually exist.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm actually not sure if they still do exist.
Speaker 1: I know when I lived in Missouri, the drive between Columbia,
Speaker 1: Missouri and Kansas City, Missouri is like a two hour
Speaker 1: drive one highway, and there are twenty four hour video
Speaker 1: porn stores every ten miles, like on the side, just
Speaker 1: for truckers to jack off in, Like just they need
Speaker 1: to jack off every ten miles, like every ten miles, yeah,
Speaker 1: making it that's the law. Yes, But according like he
Speaker 1: was there so often that that you know, the second
Speaker 1: he pops on the news, they're like, oh, Ship, that's Mark.
Speaker 3: That's surprising and impressive that they remember him, because Mark, yeah,
Speaker 3: you have to go so often for them to know
Speaker 3: who you are. He did.
Speaker 4: He was going five days a week at minimum like this,
Speaker 4: because this story comes out from the guy who worked
Speaker 4: at the video store and he's like, yeah, he was
Speaker 4: actually a pretty regular dude.
Speaker 1: Like he's like, I'm surprised he kind of went the lines.
Speaker 1: I didn't.
Speaker 2: So I hadn't.
Speaker 3: I hadn't connected who he was, and all my head,
Speaker 3: like the headlines this morning were just like Mark Robinson
Speaker 3: loves porn, says poorn guys, he likes porn.
Speaker 2: Poorn guys say.
Speaker 1: Porn, right, Yeah, yeah, he bought in addition to being
Speaker 1: there five days a week is so much. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: I mean you just think about like what he like.
Speaker 1: He apparently needed that because this was years ago, and
Speaker 1: now instead of doing that, presumably he gets up and
Speaker 1: says horrifying things about Hitler being cool. You know, so
Speaker 1: some people need porn. Yes, get him to a porn store.
Speaker 1: Stat He allegedly bought hundreds of bootleg porn tapes, which
Speaker 1: the clerk sold on the side. So I think I
Speaker 1: read somewhere and I haven't fact checked this, but that
Speaker 1: North Carolina you can't buy porn, so you have to
Speaker 1: like they need these stores because you like go there
Speaker 1: to view porn and jack off because you can't take
Speaker 1: the porn out. It's like the you know, the the
Speaker 1: dictionary encyclopedia part of the library, you know, the books
Speaker 1: that you like can't take home with you. That's what
Speaker 1: That's how porn is regulated in North Carolina. But he
Speaker 1: was such a avid consumer that the guy at the
Speaker 1: porn store, whose name is Lewis Money by the way,
Speaker 1: was selling him porn on the side and sold him
Speaker 1: hundreds of porn tapes. Yeah, because a porn tapes.
Speaker 4: The guy was saying, who worked at the store, quote
Speaker 4: instead of buying them, instead of them buying a fifty
Speaker 4: dollars movie for one, because I think it was just
Speaker 4: it was a price thing too. This guy would throw
Speaker 4: three porno's onto one VHS and somewh to Mark Robinson
Speaker 4: for twenty five bucks.
Speaker 1: And that's mean he was making his money. And he says,
Speaker 1: just good capitalism.
Speaker 4: I did that up until about two thousand and four,
Speaker 4: which is when Mark owed me the money because apparently
Speaker 4: Mark Robinson still owes him twenty five dollars for one
Speaker 4: of these porn.
Speaker 1: Tapes that he never paid him, and that's what Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is why he's coming through is because he just
Speaker 1: did pay him the twenty five five dollars. Yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: So they you know, got this information from Lewis Money,
Speaker 1: and then they went a little deeper and asked Lewis Money,
Speaker 1: like can anybody else corroborate? And he's like, yeah, I
Speaker 1: got these like five guys who either worked there or
Speaker 1: patronized these two stores, and they've just like got yeah,
Speaker 1: the cast of Cheers, but for a pornography store where
Speaker 1: people jack off together.
Speaker 5: Like they all were like, oh yeah.
Speaker 1: Mark is Mark's a friend, Like we need Mark, doesn't
Speaker 1: matter him going and be like, oh, have my usual usual.
Speaker 1: He definitely had a usual where they're like they probably
Speaker 1: like have his name on like a barstool in one
Speaker 1: of the jacks vhs. Yeah, one of the guys.
Speaker 4: This is the article from the ASSEMBLYNC dot com who
Speaker 4: did the original reporting of this. The article is amazing
Speaker 4: because they talked to all these guys like what was
Speaker 4: the deal what was he like? One guy said, Robinson
Speaker 4: usually came in with a pizza, purchased a preview, and
Speaker 4: went into a private booth to watch it and eat.
Speaker 4: So he was bringing pizzas with him into the booth
Speaker 4: and sometimes like hook because I think at the time
Speaker 4: he worked out a Papa John's or something, so he
Speaker 4: would hook people up with pizzas too from.
Speaker 1: Time to time, one guy said.
Speaker 4: One man described the future governor as funny quote, I
Speaker 4: mean like hilarious. He would have like five or six
Speaker 4: of us upfront, dying laughing at four in the morning,
Speaker 4: almost like a stand up routine. Not copying Andrew dice Clay,
Speaker 4: but almost like doing an Andrew Dice Clay comedy bit.
Speaker 1: In the morning, eating pizza in a jack of boitting
Speaker 1: a cigarette or over his head like Andrew days Clay.
Speaker 4: Oh but.
Speaker 1: Watching dick a reduct. Yeah exactly.
Speaker 4: But yeah, this is the guy who's out here talking
Speaker 4: about how he was saved, how important it is, how
Speaker 4: like what you know, mass shootings or karma for people
Speaker 4: having abortions. Yet here this man is like hiding his
Speaker 4: his his sinful side, yet accusing.
Speaker 3: This is in Greensboro, North Carolina, Carolina and I did
Speaker 3: a comedy festival there once, and someone had told me
Speaker 3: a comedian who does goes to like sex party was saying, like,
Speaker 3: that's apparently a place that surprisingly has great healthy sex party.
Speaker 1: Yeah scene, Yeah, all right, I love to hear that.
Speaker 1: Money noted that Robinson might have a problem with gay people,
Speaker 1: but I don't think he has a problem with lesbians.
Speaker 1: So all these people they got for quotes are just
Speaker 1: killing it with their lives.
Speaker 4: Who wrote clay material coming in with free pizzas for everybody?
Speaker 1: He took Andrew Dice clay bits, but he made them
Speaker 1: his own, right, Yeah, this is he would hit the
Speaker 1: cigarette under his leg instead of around his head. He
Speaker 1: would go between the legs with the smoke. Yep, yep, yep. Obviously,
Speaker 1: watching porn isn't a big deal. It can be very
Speaker 1: good sometimes. Maybe it, you know, relieves this person from
Speaker 1: having wild, horrible thoughts and going out and getting elected governor.
Speaker 1: But he has used evangelical posturing to demonize the sins
Speaker 1: of other people, which included banning books featuring LGBTQ characters
Speaker 1: from school libraries claiming that they were pornographic. He's the expert,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, he's like, and I know you're trusting me.
Speaker 1: I'm dropping money.
Speaker 4: The other thing people said was like, this guy was
Speaker 4: spending a lot of money on the porno, and he
Speaker 4: also has a lot of stuff that he says in
Speaker 4: his speeches about how the Democrats destroyed the economy and
Speaker 4: it ruined his businesses, and like when he juxtaposed that
Speaker 4: with all these people, like, dude, this guy was buying
Speaker 4: so much porno, You're like, was it really the Democrats
Speaker 4: that wreck the economy or your love of the of
Speaker 4: the bootleg.
Speaker 2: Don too much money on porn?
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the interesting not I mean not to give
Speaker 3: any validity of the but just to dissect the statement
Speaker 3: that like Republicans will use about like oh, like queer
Speaker 3: characters or LGBT equals pornographic when you find out so
Speaker 3: many of these guys secretly are watching a lot of
Speaker 3: porn and the only they don't have gay friends, and
Speaker 3: the only times they see men kiss or you know,
Speaker 3: it's like super sexual hyper sexualized in porn because important
Speaker 3: you have every situation right hyper sexualized. But that's what
Speaker 3: they're looking at. I imagine a part of their brain
Speaker 3: connects that to porn, right, like that only they see
Speaker 3: a you know, a romantic, you know, innocent first kiss
Speaker 3: on you know, a c W show, and then they're like,
Speaker 3: that's porn because they only ever see anything like that
Speaker 3: in a very extreme way.
Speaker 2: It's very fascinating.
Speaker 3: I mean it's not I don't know if they'll ever
Speaker 3: correct themselves, but I'm like, yeah.
Speaker 2: Maybe there's I feel that's where maybe that's coming from.
Speaker 1: Yes, maybe if you engaged with women as human beings
Speaker 1: and set of as like characters in your porn, like
Speaker 1: in your porn addiction, then like you would have less
Speaker 1: fucked up opinions about what they should do and like, yeah,
Speaker 1: what your role is with h with regards to their body.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And this is what's wild though, too is like
Speaker 4: a few weeks ago he was down fourteen percent in
Speaker 4: the governor race against Josh Stein, and now he's cut
Speaker 4: that lead to about four between four and six.
Speaker 1: Percent somehow, well after the story broke.
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's no after this story broke,
Speaker 4: but just over the past weeks, like you people are.
Speaker 1: Like, oh shit, that's Mark Mark from the front. Hious.
Speaker 4: I like how he used to call himself Jamal Dice Clay.
Speaker 4: He would kind of like the black urban version of
Speaker 4: Andrew Dice Clay. We loved all, we loved, we loved,
Speaker 4: we loved it.
Speaker 1: That's unbelievable, all right, So we'll keep an eye on
Speaker 1: that one.
Speaker 5: Hopefully he loses.
Speaker 1: But I mean there are other people have said that,
Speaker 1: like they think that this is going to hurt Trump's
Speaker 1: chances in North Carolina because he is profoundly unpopular in
Speaker 1: North Carolina for being a Republican, and maybe there's a
Speaker 1: chance that that drags Trump down as well. There's also
Speaker 1: like these reports that we talked about on trending yesterday,
Speaker 1: but like that, a lot of Republicans are now like
Speaker 1: we actually want to lose now, so we have a
Speaker 1: party going forward.
Speaker 4: This is it's so funny though, it's like so American too,
Speaker 4: where it's like no one's willing to do the work themselves,
Speaker 4: Like the people in power are never willing to do
Speaker 4: the work themselves. Like no, no, you could have fucking
Speaker 4: ran this pull out on a rail, but that would
Speaker 4: have took you know, you weathering the outrage mobs online,
Speaker 4: and they're I mean, I think the best thing is
Speaker 4: for them to lose really bad and then we can
Speaker 4: come in like little political roaches and inherit the earth.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, well we'll see, we'll see because oh, also
Speaker 1: there's another scanned with Robinson that I don't want to forget.
Speaker 1: Recently obtained public records showed that his wife bought three
Speaker 1: thousand dollars worth of Girl Scout cookies in two thousand
Speaker 1: and three, which overlaps with his porn usage, and then
Speaker 1: tried to get out of paying for them after the
Speaker 1: check bounced. The Girl Scouts had to sue and win
Speaker 1: the case after nobody attended on behalf of the defendant.
Speaker 1: But so they were trying to.
Speaker 2: Have so many cookies and all, and also to.
Speaker 1: The Girl Scouts, I know, yeah, what are they going
Speaker 1: to five a box? They had it? Yeah, two thousand
Speaker 1: and three Girl Scout cookie prices. I can't imagine, Like
Speaker 1: what that. That's almost like when you find out how
Speaker 1: much drugs somebody had on them and you're like, well,
Speaker 1: they were clearly planning to like deal drugs, Like nobody
Speaker 1: consumes that much drugs.
Speaker 2: You know, trying to sell her own cookies.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like juice WRLD when he passed away on that flight,
Speaker 1: Like the amount of weed he had. People like, wait,
Speaker 1: that doesn't make sense, and then they like speculate that
Speaker 1: he was trying like bringing it to friends as like
Speaker 1: a gift for them. They could then deal it like
Speaker 1: did he have his own Girl Scout cookie operations? Was
Speaker 1: the Juice World reference? My god, the fuck are we
Speaker 1: right now? I'm looking two thousand and four? He said,
Speaker 1: three fifty a box?
Speaker 2: Three fifty, Yeah, that's around how much they were when
Speaker 2: I was, I think I was.
Speaker 1: That was like garage full, a thousands boxes.
Speaker 5: Box.
Speaker 2: What's the boxes?
Speaker 1: Wow?
Speaker 3: Girl Scouts have always been LGBTQ friendly, So maybe that's
Speaker 3: she was trying to teach them a lesson.
Speaker 1: That's right, right, right, right right? Yeah, I had to
Speaker 1: turn her back on them exactly. She's like, oh, but
Speaker 1: those those dosey doves, though, hit different? Which are the
Speaker 1: dosy does? Are they the gingerbread?
Speaker 2: They're the are they the peanut butter? They're different names.
Speaker 1: Now there's two distributors. It's the oatmeal with the oatmeal
Speaker 1: with the peanut butter. Isn't that oatmeal with peanut butter?
Speaker 2: No, that's not even.
Speaker 1: With the Oh wow, my, like, am I in a
Speaker 1: different Is that not what they were?
Speaker 2: Peanut butter?
Speaker 1: Miles of a I now. So sometimes just the two
Speaker 1: thoughts like blend in his brain. I have hallucinations with
Speaker 1: the peanut butter the green, but that really there's a peanut.
Speaker 1: Damn was it called something else? Because you know, we
Speaker 1: have different because it only comes from like two different bakeries.
Speaker 1: We've talked about this too.
Speaker 3: Where there were tagalongs or something, but we I liked
Speaker 3: we had then the best ones are the chocolate covered Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Anyway, all that to say, Mark Robinson is the bad guy. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm not on trial here. I'm not on trial here,
Speaker 1: Mark Robinson is. Let's take a quick break.
Speaker 5: We'll be right back, and we're back.
Speaker 1: We're back, and uh yeah, there was so there was
Speaker 1: a trend over the weekend that I saw cropping up
Speaker 1: about having to do with Chase Bank. We covered TikTok
Speaker 1: trends here every once in a while because we're young,
Speaker 1: you know, talking about Juice World. Yeah, I'm talking to
Speaker 1: Juice World. The amount of weed that was on his planet.
Speaker 1: All right? When I don't remember this, all right, I
Speaker 1: believe you. You do the story, Miles, and I'll uh,
Speaker 1: I'll look up how much weed was on Juice World. Plain. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let me let me put my v loan hoodie on
Speaker 1: because I'm a vlone thug.
Speaker 4: All right, So yes, the TikTok trends usually, like when
Speaker 4: we talk about him, they're mostly harmless, like marinating cans
Speaker 4: of diet coke for like optimal flavor, or we're like
Speaker 4: it's if once it's refrigerated, and it just means refrigerator. Yeah,
Speaker 4: for many days, and this one's hitting so good and
Speaker 4: you're like, whatever you gotta do to get through.
Speaker 1: The day until they're crispy. Sometimes you can put a
Speaker 1: little crystallized lime in there. Yep, yep, yep. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: was seventy pounds of marijuana in forty one vacuum sealed bags.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, seventy one piece. That's a lot, yeah yeah,
Speaker 4: yeah right. But then sometimes there are these trends that
Speaker 4: come in the form of like terrible financial advice that
Speaker 4: usually just ends up being some form of fraud.
Speaker 1: Case in point.
Speaker 2: Sounds like good financial advice, yeah exactly.
Speaker 1: Like let me just play commit.
Speaker 4: This one was from like last year, where this dude
Speaker 4: was basically saying, like, just get some business cards and
Speaker 4: you can buy fucking hundred rack jeweled out watch I
Speaker 4: stout watches this is again already looks this guy looks
Speaker 4: twelve till he's twelve.
Speaker 1: He's shirtless and has a gold chain on.
Speaker 4: Two gold chains are actually I stop, bro and wait
Speaker 4: till he pulls out his bus down on his wrist. Anyway,
Speaker 4: this is this is some sick ass financial advice on TikTok.
Speaker 8: How personal credit works. Let's say, for example, you'll get
Speaker 8: a car or credit card in your personal name, you're
Speaker 8: personally held responsible.
Speaker 1: Personally, if you were to.
Speaker 8: Go get a credit card in your personal name, and
Speaker 8: you were to go max the card out, you're gonna
Speaker 8: be held liable if you don't make that payment back,
Speaker 8: the bank could come and sue you. No, what makes
Speaker 8: us different about business credit? Well, business credit, you are
Speaker 8: not personally held responsible for that line of credit. So
Speaker 8: let's say, for example, how I got this watch. I
Speaker 8: was able to open a business that I didn't really
Speaker 8: give a shit about.
Speaker 1: I went open.
Speaker 8: Business credit cards in that account. I then proceeded to
Speaker 8: go on buy this four hundred thousand dollars. I'm gonna
Speaker 8: turn around and sell it to a jeweler for eighty
Speaker 8: thousand dollars in cash, which now gives me the cash
Speaker 8: I'll file bankruptcy on the company. I'll never have to
Speaker 8: actually pay it back because I'm not personally liable for
Speaker 8: that American Express card.
Speaker 1: It's anyways goes on. Yeah, see, we're so sorry to
Speaker 1: we we didn't realize that was your fiance. Yeah that yeah,
Speaker 1: me to put him out. He looks great though, he
Speaker 1: looked at you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's that easy because finding for that that will
Speaker 4: have no effect on you in any way either.
Speaker 1: So just yeah, go ahead, none of it. It's that
Speaker 1: start business, and I really give a shit about well,
Speaker 1: I got a fake watch on. You could be like me,
Speaker 1: all right.
Speaker 4: And then this time last year there's also the cash
Speaker 4: app glitch where people were able to send themselves like
Speaker 4: huge sums of money because there was some shit going
Speaker 4: on with the cash app that wasn't working, and people
Speaker 4: were immediately spending it on stuff like door Dash, and
Speaker 4: they're like wild videos where people were like doing spending
Speaker 4: thousands on food and drink and like throwing wild ass
Speaker 4: house parties and ship like that. The clips were very interesting,
Speaker 4: a lot of fun, but once the company patched things up,
Speaker 4: many people found themselves and shipped like five figure debt.
Speaker 4: Because that's not your money.
Speaker 1: Then over Labor Day weekend, another quote glitch.
Speaker 4: They always call them fucking glitches, trend like this trade
Speaker 4: chopped up exactly, dude, glitch in the matrix glitchen capitalism,
Speaker 4: where like capitalism doesn't fucking come for your ass somehow,
Speaker 4: it always does. Basically, people were able to deposit like
Speaker 4: fake checks and got access to a significant portion of
Speaker 4: the funds that they deposited at an ATM and pull
Speaker 4: that cash right out without any holding period. So the
Speaker 4: videos made it look super simple. People were fucking throwing
Speaker 4: cash in the air. They're like, I can't believe this
Speaker 4: shit is working, and the TikTok algorithm blasted this shit
Speaker 4: all over people's for you pages. Then the same story here,
Speaker 4: Chase fixed the problem and the people that had glitched
Speaker 4: their accounts found themselves looking at huge negative balances by Monday.
Speaker 4: And many of the people that fell for this obviously
Speaker 4: like young people who aren't super financially literate or financially
Speaker 4: literate at all, and they just couldn't believe that there
Speaker 4: was a way to get free money. And the platform
Speaker 4: has so many influences already that are like criminally financially
Speaker 4: illiterate and they're building audiences off of like disaffected young
Speaker 4: people who are willing to take a gamble on shit
Speaker 4: like this just to try and you know, get their
Speaker 4: piece too, and tragically just putting them into a deeper
Speaker 4: financial hole. Because again, these aren't these aren't fucking glitches.
Speaker 4: This is you trying to defraud the country's largest bank.
Speaker 4: This aint grand theft auto where you stumbled upon a
Speaker 4: fucking loophole to fucking get your way to Lambu.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: They a fax errors so fast when it's against them,
Speaker 2: but when it's against you.
Speaker 1: Oh, it takes years.
Speaker 2: It takes so long.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: They're double paid on a sorry. Oh I double paid
Speaker 3: on a chased card once because I was like I'm
Speaker 3: gonna pay, like I had a fairly large balance and
Speaker 3: I was like, I got paid and I paid it once,
Speaker 3: but then I didn't go through. I thought, so then
Speaker 3: I paid it again yea, and then it went through
Speaker 3: twice and I was like, oh, I didn't mean to
Speaker 3: pay this twice because it was like too much and
Speaker 3: I was like, no, I need the cash. And it
Speaker 3: took them like three months to actually reverse it, which
Speaker 3: was very annoying because it was like.
Speaker 1: Standard. They are again like just you know, human beings, consumers,
Speaker 1: individuals do not have government backing they we we do
Speaker 1: not have anybody creating laws to look out for us
Speaker 1: in this country. Corporations have people, they have laws to
Speaker 1: protect them, They have well funded legal departments who are
Speaker 1: going to figure out how to get your ass. Do
Speaker 1: not try to scam corporations because they will get you.
Speaker 1: Don't scam people because it's fucked up and immoral. Don't
Speaker 1: scam corporations because they're gonna they're they're you're you're not
Speaker 1: going to get.
Speaker 5: Away with it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, if anyone's figured out a glitch, it's
Speaker 1: the corporations. They're like liability glitch. Watch this.
Speaker 4: I will fleece these people of their money and there's
Speaker 4: nothing you can do about it, or you will have
Speaker 4: to go through lengthy legal processes that you just can't endure.
Speaker 1: So we win.
Speaker 4: But like I don't blame these kids for trying, you
Speaker 4: know what I mean. Like our society has like glorified
Speaker 4: billionaire culture, and social media has like amplified our ability
Speaker 4: to compare our life situation to others completely unrealistic situation.
Speaker 4: So you know, like they're countless stories too, you see
Speaker 4: a people who were scamming PPP loans at the start
Speaker 4: of the pandemic for their own personal gain.
Speaker 1: So I'm sure none of these people are like why
Speaker 1: wouldn't I try and get mine through some glitch?
Speaker 4: But sadly, again there I felt like this was a
Speaker 4: lesson I learned so early on that like was drilled
Speaker 4: into my head, which was there is no such thing
Speaker 4: as free money.
Speaker 1: Just so you know, anybody is offering you free money,
Speaker 1: run until you have like millions of dollars, and then
Speaker 1: you get free money via like yeah, yeah, you just
Speaker 1: buy a slum like apartment against yeah, against it man,
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. So that's the only free money there is.
Speaker 1: But like this sort of thing, it's not going to
Speaker 1: work out for you, and if it's going viral on TikTok,
Speaker 1: it's too late.
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah right.
Speaker 3: But that's interesting you're talking about like the because it
Speaker 3: is kids doing this, and I think even during because
Speaker 3: I'm bringing my fiance back, but like when he was
Speaker 3: trading during the pandemic, a lot of the kids on TikTok,
Speaker 3: they would post their gains and of course some of
Speaker 3: them get into a crazy debt, but like they also
Speaker 3: start with nothing so some of the ones that make
Speaker 3: them most and they you know, exceptions, but it's exciting
Speaker 3: when you see one because they post it and everyone's like,
Speaker 3: maybe that could be me. They're not afraid to overleverage
Speaker 3: and make stupid decisions, which I would not recommend, but
Speaker 3: you do see them succeeding sometimes because they're like, you know, twenty,
Speaker 3: and they're like, have nothing to their name, and they
Speaker 3: overleverage and they take advantage of a glitch and then
Speaker 3: suddenly they're like up a million, and then they overleverage
Speaker 3: that and then they're willing to lose everything because they
Speaker 3: have nothing right And yeah, it's kind of wild, like
Speaker 3: I wonder what the future is going to be with
Speaker 3: all these kids who kind of had their young youth
Speaker 3: like this, Like this is not how I thought about.
Speaker 4: Money at all when I was well right, because there's
Speaker 4: also this all this hustle culture bullshit too that has
Speaker 4: people just in this like really unrealistic frame of mind
Speaker 4: for how anything works. And again it's fucked up because
Speaker 4: already the reality, the financial reality for most young people
Speaker 4: is so bleak that you would end up being like, well,
Speaker 4: fuck it, Like why don't I just fucking steal if
Speaker 4: it looks like everybody's just fucking stealing or not getting
Speaker 4: it properly. And the sad thing is there are plenty
Speaker 4: of people who like have sound financial advice on TikTok
Speaker 4: or things like that. So rather than like learning about
Speaker 4: like I don't know, fucking index funds or like properly
Speaker 4: budgeting and shit like that, you fall into something we're
Speaker 4: like a nineteen year old.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, so this is how I have an
Speaker 1: estyle lambeau or toilet.
Speaker 4: Every time I flush it, VVS diamonds come out, you know,
Speaker 4: and like it's all through a glitch called my grandfather
Speaker 4: was you know, Andrew Carnegie.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the same as the lottery though. It's like,
Speaker 1: I mean that's been working the same way for a
Speaker 1: long time. That like the only it's good content as
Speaker 1: long as you're looking at the winner and your brain
Speaker 1: is to remember the winner. It's not gonna remember like
Speaker 1: the people. Well, first of all, they're not even gonna
Speaker 1: cover it on the news, like and these thirty people
Speaker 1: all spent way too much money on lottery tickets, right,
Speaker 1: and now look at the awkward silence at the dinner
Speaker 1: table after they're having to just eat that and sit
Speaker 1: sadly and eat spaghetti out of a can.
Speaker 4: It's just there's there's this one video I put like
Speaker 4: this screen cap of it in there where like this kid,
Speaker 4: you know thought it thought it was a glitch, but
Speaker 4: you can tell like he's like dueting, you know, like
Speaker 4: a video like it's it's not really a duet, but
Speaker 4: he's like green screening himself into his own bank balance
Speaker 4: where he owes forty thousand dollars from doing the chase thing.
Speaker 1: And dude, this kid is so fucking upset like ours plays.
Speaker 4: You can kind of hear just this kid keeps rubbing
Speaker 4: his face like he can't believe how much he just
Speaker 4: fucked this the whole thing up.
Speaker 1: Just can't believe it. Yeah, oh man, it really told
Speaker 1: me to tap in next day. It was supposed to clear.
Speaker 1: Look at my account, yo.
Speaker 4: Uh, Like I can feel this kid's pain, you know
Speaker 4: what I mean, Like, that's so much fucking money. I
Speaker 4: don't know how old you are, where you're at in
Speaker 4: your life, but nobody can. Nobody's eating a forty grand
Speaker 4: like that and that and everything that you're gonna earn
Speaker 4: has to go towards I mean, obviously there might be
Speaker 4: a way to work this out. But like you can,
Speaker 4: you can see just like the highs and lows of
Speaker 4: it were like a few days but earlier everyone was
Speaker 4: like laughing their asses off at the atm they couldn't
Speaker 4: believe their good fortune. And then the fucking hammer of
Speaker 4: reality comes down on your head and you're left there
Speaker 4: following victim to like, you know what you thought was
Speaker 4: free money when there is no such thing. Yeah, it's
Speaker 4: it's it's really fucking it's it's a it's like an
Speaker 4: encapsulation just like kind of everything. That's how happening because
Speaker 4: people's you know, like your economic or financial recourse, Like
Speaker 4: you have no financial recourse, so it's easier to dive
Speaker 4: into some shit like this. But anyway, so yeah, and
Speaker 4: for anybody with younger or you know, young people listening
Speaker 4: anything that's a glitch, stay the fuck away from that. Yeah,
Speaker 4: you know, there's no such thing as a glitch.
Speaker 1: And I think that's again, unless you are a corporation,
Speaker 1: and we do have a lot of listeners to our corporations,
Speaker 1: you are able to take advantage of a glitch or
Speaker 1: an inefficiency over and over and over and over again,
Speaker 1: and that that is how a lot of people became
Speaker 1: billionaires that you just need to do it and get
Speaker 1: rich enough so that by the time they catch it,
Speaker 1: you're rich enough to like have your own legal department basically,
Speaker 1: right exactly, and then you're like, fine, man, I'll eat that. Fine,
Speaker 1: what is it? Like a fraction of what I stole?
Speaker 3: I don't have the sec finds a company and it's
Speaker 3: like comical comparaisons.
Speaker 1: Three million dollars, It's like, what was their revenue last year?

Speaker 3: there's just videos of him talking about like the difference
Speaker 3: between like September Virgo and August.
