3
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: at Sophie's horrified face. You know, Sophie, my grandpa had

4
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 1: a saying my co host today are Katie Stole and

5
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 1: Cody Johnson. How are you all doing? Grandpa? It was weird.

6
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 1: We all thought he was going senile when he would

7
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: just shout that out. But twenty years ago, but then

8
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: I met you Bothie, Sorry, Grandpa Evans? How are you

9
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: guys doing today? All right? A plus good? Right on time? Yeah,

10
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: Cody is only thirty seven minutes late to record, which

11
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 1: I have to say. Normally there is a calendar invite

12
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,599
Speaker 1: that tells me what time we are recording, and there

13
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 1: was not this time, and so I did not know

14
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 1: there was another calendar invite that said one thirty, which

15
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: is what I was expecting. Cody is ready for coming,

16
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: so quick quick check, Katie? Were you on time? I

17
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: was on time? Hey, Robert, quick check? Were you on time? Maybe?

18
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 1: Here's the thing? Were I checked? Chris? Were you on time?

19
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 1: I do normally give Cody a little reminder, and that

20
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 1: is my fault because you are no no, no, absolutely not,

21
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: absolutely no, Sophie. There's nothing woker than letting a woman

22
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: take the blame for a man's I want all of

23
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,680
Speaker 1: our listeners to know. I did not mean that. Seriously.

24
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: It was Katie and Sophie's fault. They collaborated like Barack

25
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: Obama and Pete Bota. Katie called Sophie and was like,

26
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: should I remind Cody? And Sophie was like no, Should

27
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: I send an email invite like I normally do? And

28
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: Katie's like no, And then they laughed and laughed and laughed.

29
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: I was on the email thread with them. I thought

30
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: it was messed up. It's or or perhaps you fucked up.

31
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: Continue Robert with your show. So, guys, you remember how

32
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: last year we had a couple of fun moments where

33
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: we got together as friends as as as colleagues, as comrades,

34
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: and we randomly page through terrible books. How could I forget?

35
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: We learned about what an Edgregor is, which is the

36
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: collective satan that the Jewish people have created with their

37
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 1: own their own seared into my memory. That was a

38
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: good one. Yeah. I remember the science book science book

39
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: we read You Were the Q and on book we

40
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: read We learned a lot of good information science Part Science,

41
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 1: Part two. Today I got a little bit of a

42
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: different book because sometimes reading through random books at random

43
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: points in time means I don't have to prepare as much,

44
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: which can help us to get a head over here.

45
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: And I love that for you and for us for

46
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: our show. And today we're going to read a book

47

Speaker 1: Shapiro book today. This is fun because I've novelist Ben Shapira.

53
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: I've been muting him more avoiding him on Twitter. So

54
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: it's been a minute. You've been taking care of your

55
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: mental health, and I'm ready to tarnish it right now.

56
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: Just light it on fire. There's only so much room

57
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: we have on our day to day. That can't have

58
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: been easy for you. It wasn't. Everything he says is wrong. Now,

59
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: I wanted to talk a little bit before this about

60
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: what we do when we have a book by a

61
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: terrible person that I don't want to support financially, but

62
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: I want to read because there's a trick and I

63
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: wasn't telling people the trick before, but now, like, fuck it,

64
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: what's what's the worst that could happen? The key is,

65
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: The key is as far as I know, this isn't illegal.

66
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: The key is purchase the book on Kindle, right, you

67
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: download it to your device, you disconnect your device from

68
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: the Internet, you apply for a refund from Kindle, and

69
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: then you finished doing what you're going to do in

70
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: the book before you reconnected to the Internet and removes it.

71
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: Great is legal to me? Actually it does sound very leegal,

72
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,360

119
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: That's a good call. Because you might not believe what

120
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: you learn about Brigadier General Brett how and the prisident.

121
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 1: He only cares about Obama, I mean not Obama, and

122
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: he's a he's a he's a different president. Right, all right,

123
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna start with I think chapter one

124
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: looks like it's opening with, like, you know, we were

125
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: starting with like a terrorist attack going on in New

126
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: York City. Wait wait, wait what year was this? Did

127
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: you say that two thousand sixteen this came out? Yeah,

128
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: I would have had to. Yeah. Great, so the president

129
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: obsessive legacy would be Obama, not the president. Yeah yeah,

130
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: it is also obsessed with his legacy in a different way,

131
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: in a different way. All right, Oh no, it doesn't

132
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: start Okay, so the first episode doesn't start with a

133
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: new terror. It starts with like nine eleven. Uh. And

134
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: I think the character who's going to grow up to

135
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: be our our our ranch militia leader in New York

136
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: at nine eleven, seeing the towers at the building. So

137
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: that that seems like what we're going on with this

138
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: this prologue here. So that's good. We're kicking it off

139
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 1: with the nine and eleven and then we move right

140
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: in with chapter one to Brett Hawthorne in Afghanistan, Brigadier

141
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: General Bret Hawthorne looked at his M nine magazine and

142
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: cursed to himself empty. He was set up against a

143
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: mud brick hovel in the city's poor part of town.

144
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: Even in Kabul there was a large income gap, and

145
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: felt the sweat trickle down cold between his shoulder blades.

146
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: He hadn't been alone for years. General has always had

147
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 1: a personal security detail, but things had gone hellishly wrong.

148
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: Hawthorne was a bear of a man, six three in

149
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 1: his bare feet. And let's talk about this a minute.

150
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: I've gotten criticized in the past for making fun of

151
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: Ben Shapiro's shortness. And it's true that you shouldn't make

152
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: fun of people for being short. Some people in this

153
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: very room short, most of us, most of us, most

154
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: of us except for you and myself. Yeah, I'm not tall.

155
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm There are more there taller people than me in

156
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 1: this room. There are there are, And it's fine, there's

157
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 1: nothing nothing, It says nothing about the personage. But also, well,

158
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: so here here's the other thing. For many, many, many

159
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: many years, Ben Shapiro claimed that he was my actual

160
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 1: height five eight I did, I was unaware of He

161
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 1: is not we as we all know. Um. So it's

162
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: just one of those things where, Okay, you're gonna lie

163
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: about this a lot something I don't know. I don't

164
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: know I'm making that up, but I've heard that. But

165
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: he's been lying about his height for years. It is funny,

166
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: and it's funny that his clear self insert character Bret

167
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: Hawthorne is a bear of a man, six three in

168
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: his bare feet and two pounds in his underwear. So, yeah,

169
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: what I'm struck by this is like, there's all these

170
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: stories Ben Shapiro, Sorry, no, no, it's fine. Um uh.

171
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: Ben Shapiro wanted to be a Hollywood screen run and

172
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,479
Speaker 1: he's film to add of that, There's just these few sentences.

173
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: I just can feel him being like this would make

174
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: a great movie, you know, like he's writing it, Like

175
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: those guys of Hollywood won't make it. I'll write this,

176
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah. Yeah, I'm also wondering as a gun guy.

177
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: So the M nine is the nine millimeter Bretta side

178
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: arm that was up until recently, the standard side arm

179
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: of the military. It says he looks at his M

180
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: nine magazine. Now there's a couple of things that that

181
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: makes me think. So, if you're actually shooting a handgun

182
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: like that and it's empty, the slide locks back, and

183
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 1: you can immediately tell that it's empty because the slide

184
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: is locked back. Uh. At no point, if you're in

185
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: a firefight, would you reject the magazine and look at

186
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: the magazine to determine whether or not your weapon was empty? Um?

187
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: And I'm not I'm not sure how Brett Hawthorne combat general.

188
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: That doesn't make any sense as an opening, Like it

189
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: makes sense if he was like looked like the slide

190
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: locked back of Brett Hawthorne's M nine magazine and he

191
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: cursed to himself empty like that makes gun sense. I

192
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: can explain this to you. Ben isn't know he's talking.

193
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: Thank you for that, Katie. Um, I have to back

194
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: up real quick. We're doing really well. I need you,

195
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: Robert real quick to read the blurb at the beginning

196
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: one more time with Iron Rand. Oh about Iron Rand. Okay,

197
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: that's the whole thing. We're scrolling back. We're scrolling back

198
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: true allegiance, Meet our new Iron Randy by Salon dot Com. Okay,

199
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: that's it. So here's the thing, folks. Uh, if you

200
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: were to go to Salon dot com Salon dot com

201
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 1: and you were to look for that phrase, you'd find

202
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 1: an article. That article is called meet our New Iron

203
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: Rand colon. Ben Shapiro's ham fisted propaganda fiction is even

204
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 1: worse than you guessed. Subheader the wingnut pundit resents the

205
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: liberal tone of TV but turns out cartoonish, right lenning

206
00:11:55,320 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 1: prose unreal? Thank you for looking up? That is that

207
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: lead of somebody's can you can do whatever you want?

208
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: It's amazing. It's the funniest thing I think Ben has

209
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: ever done. It's the it's it's everything about him. We

210
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: need regulation of book blur. Taking that blurb like no

211
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: one would want to be like, oh I'm the new

212
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: Iron Rand, Like already it's like, that's not like praise

213
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: that you would want to promote. But the fact that

214
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: it's just pulled from this really really mean headline is

215
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: so good, you guys, there's so much more to say

216
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 1: about combat. General Bret Hawthorne. Okay, okay, oh my god, okay,

217
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: So so Bret Hawthorne, who is pounds in his underwear,

218
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: has a graying blonde crew cut and a face carved

219
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: of granite Um God, not not a face that looks

220
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: carved of granite, but a face carved band whatever, horrifying

221
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: reality for him. I know what a nightmare for Brett Hawthorn.

222
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm kind of into this. It's like a

223
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: fantasy thing now, toxic masculinity. He can never change his face.

224
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: Feel like he's touching himself when he writes about Bret Hawthorne,

225
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,839
Speaker 1: combat general and not at all a Ben Shapiro stand in.

226
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: So it's so Brett is looking up at the blown

227
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 1: up buildings of Kabul and he he could see the

228
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: Kabul Serena Hotel burning. The new coalition government had bragged

229
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 1: about the hotel is the standard bear for the modernization

230
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 1: of the city with its historically imitative Islamic architecture, satellite

231
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: TV and wireless internet. Now the flames looked at the

232
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: windows as ashes floated down on the city, and I

233
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 1: feel like he brings up that it's Islamic architecture for

234
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,599
Speaker 1: a reason to make it seem like even more of

235
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 1: a bad idea. No, I'm just being specific in my pros,

236
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: like I'm sure that if knows what Islamic architecture looks

237
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: like for one thing. Um, No, I'm sure if you

238
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 1: were to control f that file and just type Islamic,

239
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: it would come up as like a descriptor for so

240
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 1: many things they do not need that word. I bet

241
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: you're right, we're indexing right now. I'm gonna move right

242
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: along to uh. So it goes on to him talking

243
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: about how a few short this is pretty great too. Actually,

244
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: a few short years ago, Afghanistan had seemed to be

245
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 1: on the up swig. The talent had been on the run,

246
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: hiding in the mountains of the Tora Bora region sally Forth.

247
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 1: Every so often it hit a supply chain. The coalition

248
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: forces had been sustimate. So a few years ago everything

249
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: they'd been great in Afghanistan. The arrogant president and Hathor

250
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: knew all this because he had designed the strategy, and

251
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: now the strategy had gone to ship. Well, Bret Hawthorne

252
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: thought to himself, at least I can tell those stupid

253
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: bastards I told you so. It is delightful to see

254
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: who thinks that he is. Oh boy, you guys in

255
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 1: Islamic is fewer times than I thought. But I'm already

256
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: seeing some religion of peace talk that I'm sure is

257
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: going to be fun. Oh boy, the all the words

258
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: that are available in in like the little search, because

259
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: you only get the few words around it that late

260
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 1: stage Islam is peace, pussy shit. That's that's that's a

261
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: sentence for you. I don't know the context yet, but

262
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: I'm sure we'll learn. I love the idea that has

263
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 1: been is writing this. He's like his des typing and

264
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: he has a cigar in his mouth that he will

265
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: never light. No, he's just because it hurts his lungs. Yes, exactly. Yeah,

266
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: he hates the taste and hates what it does to him.

267
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: He's got to have the cigar and like a glass

268
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: of scotch that is mostly ice that he doesn't sit

269
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: from cost him three dollars, you've got to savor it.

270
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: So um, we're gonna talk about Bret Hawthorne's background now

271
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: because we start like a great writer. He starts in

272
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: the action se right, pinned down under fired, Islamic hotel

273
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: is burning. He grips your right away. You're like exciting, like,

274
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: oh yeah, it's like die hard but iron Rand, Yeah, dying,

275
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: dying Rand. And now now we go back to let's

276
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: learn about Bret hawthorn'sground. Bret Hawthorne was the youngest general

277
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 1: in the American military. He'd grown up lower middle class

278
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: in Chicago. His mother a teacher, his father a salesman company.

279
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, at some point you got his search how

280
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: many times he mentioned Chicago? Oh? Boy? Is he Is

281
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: that a thing for him? Um? It's a thing for

282
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: him because of Obama's thing for him, because of guns.

283
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: Is a thing for him, because of black people in general. Um. Boys.

284
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: So half of the time Chicago's mentioned in this book,

285
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: it's the South side of Chicago, which is the baddest

286
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: part of town. And if you go there, you better

287
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 1: be aware for a man namely Roy Brown, bad, bad,

288
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: bad man in the hole damn town, madder than a

289
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: junkyard dog. That's right, Katie, That's absolutely correct. What that's

290
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: a great So he'd been a shy, gentle quiet kid,

291
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: built like a read but he learned one skill pretty

292
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: quickly at Thomas Edison High how to talk his way

293
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 1: from a bad out of a bad situ. O good lord. Okay.

294
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: So he learned this from Derek Um because Brett, Yeah,

295
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: I think Derek's gonna be a black inner city kid

296
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: who teaches him how to be cool. That's my guess.

297
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: So Brett sat by himself a lot at lunch because

298
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: he wasn't one of the Irish kids. He wasn't one

299
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: of the Italian kids. He made the mistake of trying

300
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,360
Speaker 1: to befriend a couple of black kids that hadn't gone well.

301
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: He'd ended up with a black eye and a few

302
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 1: new vocabulary words. I'm sorry, it'll be any shaps. It is,

303
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: this is, it's every single thing, he says. You're like, so,

304
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: did this literally happened to you? You had a bad

305
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: experience in this in your life. No, I don't think

306
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 1: this actually happened. No. I think he imagined that if

307
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 1: he had tried to talk about it's the thing that

308
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: you do where you like imagine conversations with people and

309
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 1: you get into an argument about them, like, well, this

310
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: is what I would say, then that's what this is.

311
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 1: This is his Yeah. So, because I'm trying to befriend

312
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 1: black kids is a bad idea, he said, because of

313
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: the words you'll learn. He sat alone until he made

314
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 1: the mistake of a city of looking up one day

315
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: and standing standing above him, glaring at him, was a behemoth,

316
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 1: a black kid named Yard. Nobody knew his real name. Everybody,

317
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: he just called him Yard because he stood on played

318
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,679
Speaker 1: on the school football team, stood six ft five, clocked

319
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: in in a solid two hundred pounds. He's it's very funny,

320
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 1: but I'm sorry. Uh, nobody knows his name, but he's

321
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,679
Speaker 1: on the football team. Yes, no one knows his name.

322
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: What's on his jersey? No one knows his name Yard,

323
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: No one knows his dis blame, unbelievable. Then he's just

324
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 1: number twelve. Nobody knows the star football player's name. No,

325
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 1: he's Yard. Never mind, I'm not mad where he goes

326
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: and nobody even cared to find out where he got

327
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 1: that nick, I'm not mad, you're mad. You're the ones.

328
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: How we all doing great? Never been better? So Yard

329
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: stood six ft five, clocked in in a solid tune

330
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 1: at eighty pounds, and looked like he was headed straight

331
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: for a lifetime of person work. Oh jesus, are you

332
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: kidding me? Excuse me? What does that look like? Then?

333
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 1: Don't be off put by his laughing. Just how we

334
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 1: deal with this pain we're to We're not even two

335
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 1: pages into the chapter one. This is absolute trash, headed

336
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: for a life. Why is he headed? Five? Because he's

337
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: a tall black man. He's the star football team, Ben.

338
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:29,719
Speaker 1: Maybe he's not for prison. The coach loved him, everyone

339
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: else feared him. Okay, all right, Yeah, So Brett looks

340
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: up and this causes Yard to attack him. Um, oh

341
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 1: my god. I thought that Brett was a vehemoth man

342
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 1: as well. I thought he was. That's a good point, Katie.

343
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: But he was small in school. Okay, he had a

344
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: growth spurt once he started using gud. Okay, that makes sense.

345
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: At some point he turned from Ben Shapiro literally into

346
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: Ward Jim roll right. It's just like this, like eventually

347
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 1: he turned into a bear. Right. Ben's just waiting like

348
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: my dad didn't. He's just watching Brave on a loop,

349
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: just like that's going to be me one day. I'm

350
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 1: going to be the bear. No, that's liberal propaganda. Also Frozen,

351
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:25,160
Speaker 1: definitely liberal propaganda. So guys, this is I looked ahead,

352
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: and it's very bad. So Ben's Brett is sitting down

353
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: at school and and Yard looks at him and he

354
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: makes the mistake of looking up, and then Yard mumbles

355
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 1: something in his face. What said Brett? I said, Yard?

356
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 1: Groud growled, did you just call me in word? Because

357
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: I just heard you call me inward. Yeah, did you

358
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 1: call him N word? No? I don't think he did,

359
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 1: but I mean in his head Ben Shapiro did when

360
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 1: he came up with this character, Like he's like thinking

361
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 1: this and oh my gosh, okay, you know what isn't

362
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: headed for a lifetime of prison work outs. I can't

363
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 1: begin to imagine the products and services that support this podcast.

364
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: I was going to guess Yard. Actually, Yard probably makes

365
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 1: millions of dollars as a as a talented football player

366
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 1: who just got angry because Ben Shapiro absolutely called him

367
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: the N word. Cool. It still counts even if it's

368
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: under your breath, Ben, Yeah, even if it's under your

369
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: breath every waking hour of the day. All right, products,

370
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 1: we're back, and we are just slowly making our way

371
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,640
Speaker 1: through this book. We did the we did the blurbs.

372
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 1: We did we got the description, the physical description of

373
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 1: the main character. I don't think we're going to get

374
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: far through this book, you guys. I don't care because

375
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: the next chapter is the President. But I want to

376
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 1: know how this situation with Yard works. Oh good God.

377
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: Yard's hand came down on Brett's shoulder, heavy is doom.

378
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 1: Brett could feel his bowels begin to give way when

379
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:06,719
Speaker 1: a smallish hand emerged on emerged on yard shoulder. Oh

380
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 1: my god, what a bad right, so bad? You remember

381
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,199
Speaker 1: when you we've all had a hand emerged on us,

382
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: just punches right through like the chest burster. Oh my god.

383
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 1: Ben Shapiro writes the way monks fuck just like badly, badly,

384
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: but also constantly apparently. Yeah, yeah, boy, okay. Uh so

385
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 1: a hand emerchuse on a black hand. Yards swiveled ponderously

386
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:52,880
Speaker 1: to face down the person connected with the hand ponderously ponderously. Yeah,

387
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: this is his black friend Derek, who defends uh Ben

388
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 1: Shapiro for not saying the INN word. Yeah, yeah, so

389
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: it's good. It's it's it's good. So Derek, Derek is

390
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: his friend, Um who such an obvious stand in for Ben. Yeah,

391
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: it's incredibly obvious. And Derek is a stand in for

392
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: the friend that been, the black friend. Ben Shapiro has

393
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 1: never made a wish that he had so that these

394
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: situations could be avoided, and who would stand up for

395
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,639
Speaker 1: him every time on Twitter he got called out as

396
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: a racist. Actually, my friend Derek defended me when I

397
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: thought the N word a couple of times at the

398
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 1: definite future prisoner. Unbelievable. Oh my gosh. Okay, so, uh

399
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: one thing I want you to do at some point

400
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 1: is uh do a search for the word honky, because

401
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,920
Speaker 1: I feel like, yes, definitely. But first we have to

402
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:56,679
Speaker 1: talk about Brett's growth spurt. It's going to happen between

403
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: his junior and senior years of high school. Brett finally

404
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 1: hit his growth spurt. Like his dad, he bloomed late,

405
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: but when he did, he put on muscle and height

406
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: like a racehorse. He sprouted five inches to six ft two.

407
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 1: He broadened through the chest, filling out to a healthy

408
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: to fifteen. The coaches that ignored him in high school,

409
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,680
Speaker 1: but at the Citadel he goes to military school, he

410
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: quickly became their favorite. Yeah, it's a real sad inside

411
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,400
Speaker 1: into his psyche of what he desperately wants. I feel

412
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 1: like I've learned so much more about Benny Shap's just

413
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,360
Speaker 1: from the first couple of pages. Not hate him, Look,

414
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 1: I mean that it's sad. We're all we're all suffering

415
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 1: from the same problem, we just express it in different ways.

416
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 1: And Ben has done this since then. Um. I uh,

417
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: I've thought about this before, um, specifically with Jordan Peterson

418
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: doctor doctor George Yes Um, Jordan Bumblebee Peterson, uh in

419
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: that he so he tries to explain things to people,

420
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 1: and he like slips in some I think odious views,

421
00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: and he does it language that seems like demic, but

422
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: it's also kind of contradictory. It's like it's it's if

423
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 1: you pass what he says, it's not great. Um, and

424
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: he just sort of talks and talks and talks. I've

425
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: always wanted him to stop what he's doing and write

426
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: a novel because I know that if he writes a novel,

427
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 1: then his views will be very revealed and a tremendous

428
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 1: here not like not intentionally necessarily, it just it'll lose

429
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: out of him, like here's here's what I think about

430
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 1: everybody on the page. He will write a novel that

431
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: he thinks is about like a decent man running for

432
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: president and saving the country, and everyone will point out

433
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 1: ten minutes after it's released, like, oh, you wrote mind

434
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: com exactly exactly. You'll be like all these all these

435
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,879
Speaker 1: emotions and feelings you're talking about, and like what you

436
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: think needs to like to take taking the chaos and

437
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 1: turning into order everything you're writing about there will be

438
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 1: like a three page part where Jordan Peterson talks about

439
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,159
Speaker 1: seeing his first acidic jew and it will be like

440
00:25:54,400 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: a word for word almost what Yeah, and one will

441
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 1: know it until it's published. He won't know it. And uh,

442
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: I definitely want him to do that. And I'm glad

443
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: that Ben has done that. It shares a lot. So

444
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna skim the next couple of pages because

445
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 1: we've got to move on to the president. Um. But yeah,

446
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 1: so when he was twenty two, he got sent to

447
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia and and and missed Operation Desert Storm for

448
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: the most part. Um, and he was really bummed that

449
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: we let the curds die, which I didn't hear Ben

450
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 1: speak up a whole lot when we abandon them in seriously,

451
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: why not in a position he's changed. Yeah, it's interesting. Um,

452
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 1: he meets someone named Ellen, who I don't care about. Um,

453
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 1: they have a kid together. Um, he's in Kosovo as

454
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: a captain. By September eleventh, he's a major. A major.

455
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 1: By September eleventh, he was a major, a major who,

456
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 1: by simple coincidence, knew Peshtow. So one of the most

457
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 1: simple coincidence, a simple coincidence. He learned one of the

458
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: most complex and difficult to master languages on the face

459
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 1: of the planet, just as a coincidence, Like you do, I,

460
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 1: I was just drawn there. There was no reason. Here's

461
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 1: the best part. He's one of the first one on

462
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 1: the ground in Afghanistan. And uh he knew little of

463
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 1: the country's culture, but his knowledge of the language made

464
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: him a valuable commodity. So do you know a little

465
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: of a culture but noah language, How did you learn

466
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 1: that language? Yeah? How do you learn Pashto? And nothing

467
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: about Afghan culture? Fans view of the world. It's amazing,

468
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 1: it's like and it's like, yeah, he did like a matrix.

469
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 1: He like he like jacked into the matrix and he

470
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 1: learned the language. But nothing, but nothing at all, not

471
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 1: a goddamn thing about Afghan culture. So he hangs out

472
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,120
Speaker 1: with the Northern Alliance. Some rotton there's a Rosetta stone,

473
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:50,640
Speaker 1: the Pashto Rosetta stone. Coincidence, missed all the culture stuff. Cool? Uh, Yeah,

474
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 1: he hung out with the Northern Alliance and it was

475
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 1: all very Lawrence of Arabia, Brett thought, except that Peter

476
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: O'Toole had never had to deal with roadside bombs or

477
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 1: donkeys laden with explosives or the were of the opium trade.

478
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 1: Such a good point, and it's interesting he describes it.

479
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 1: Is he like is he tempted? Right? There's like half

480
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 1: it is what I think about the world, and half

481
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: it's like what if it's like could I do? Ah?

482
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'm sorry. It's so good, it's so good. Okay. Um,

483
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 1: so yeah, the administration makes a terrible deal that that

484
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: dooms the effort in Afghanistan, and Brett Hawthorne is there

485
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 1: as it's all falling apart and he's with a CNN

486
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: crew and he saves the day. Um he's he'd been

487
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 1: ushering the CNN crew around because, as he told his wife,

488
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: got to keep those schmucks from reporting that we eat Muslims.

489
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 1: What wait wait Robert, So he's he's digging. He's making

490
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: a dig at the mainstream media, obviously, but admitting the candidates,

491
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 1: but like the yeah, like doing saying the awful things

492
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: like a good thing. He doesn't because CNN would report

493
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: that American soldiers eat Muslims because they hate American soldiers

494
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 1: and don't, for example, respond worshipfully when we fire missiles

495
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: at an empty air base in Syria and talked about

496
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: the beauty of our weapons. They don't do that. They

497
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 1: hate the American military. Oh then I hate them exactly,

498
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 1: all right. So a little dig in here about how

499
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: lazy the CNN people are. And then Brett turned to speak.

500
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 1: This is after the camera says they've had eno footage.

501
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: Brett turned to speak, and from behind the cameraman he

502
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 1: saw a child on a donkey about three feet away.

503
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 1: His service weapon, a Baretta M nine, was in his

504
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 1: hand before he even felt it leave. He's a kid

505
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: on a weird little racist So I bet he's right.

506
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,080
Speaker 1: I bet he's right. Oh, he's absolutely right. And and

507
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: the evil scene and cameraman zooms in eagerly as the

508
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 1: situation degenerates, because he wants to wants to capture the

509
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 1: kid being shot by Yeah, okay, we're going to go

510
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: on to the president here. I don't need I don't

511
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: need more of this description of the child dying. No,

512
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: I don't know that the child. I'm sure he saves

513
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 1: the child. And the evil scene and cameraman is angry

514
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 1: at this. President Prescott. Okay, that's a good name. That's

515
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: a I mean, that's a solid. President. We simply he

516
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: didn't do like a very like African uh oh rock

517
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 1: bo bomb something like that, President black Man, No, he's

518
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: Mark Prescott. Alright, okay, solid solid. We simply can't pay

519
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: for it, Sir. White House Chief of Staff Tommy Bradley

520
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: was standing over the President's desk in the Oval Office,

521
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: a sheaf of budget papers in his hand, crumpled wrinkled

522
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 1: papers covered in red notes. Than members just didn't add up.

523
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 1: President Mark Prescott didn't care listen to be tom Oh

524
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 1: my god, oh how transparent can you be? That's so

525
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: that's like it's also really poorly written. It is because

526
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 1: we go from like, yeah, the President's chief of staff

527
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 1: standing over a sheaf of budget papers in his hand,

528
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: crumpled wrinkled papers covered in red notes. That's not even

529
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: a sentence. Crumpled wrinkled papers covered in red notes is

530
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 1: not a full sentence. There's no action in that sentence.

531
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 1: It is a creative So it's like a it's like

532
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: palauk style. Yeah, he's got that, like it's like two

533
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: words sentences, you know. And yes, I was going to

534
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: say this has a very Palinuki right, yeah, Palu palanukish

535
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 1: way too generous. So, um, listen to me, Tommy said,

536
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 1: the president, my reelection relies on our ability to secure

537
00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: funding for this action. You know that, I know that

538
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: the Poles it. We don't have a choice in the matter. Okay,

539
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: so what's this what's this action about? Yeah, Oh, he's

540
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 1: afraid of becoming a Jimmy Carter was like, what's he

541
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 1: alluding to? With like, like regards to Obama, I'm still

542
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: we're awhile into this kind. I can't figure out responsibility

543
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 1: what they can't pay for? Um. I wonder if we'll

544
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,479
Speaker 1: ever find out there was a stock market crash that's

545
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 1: apparently this Democratic president's fault, just like the stock market

546
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 1: crash in two thousand and eight didn't start in the

547
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 1: Bush minutes stration because it was a Bomba's fault that

548
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 1: it crashed in the Bush administration. I mean, it's a

549
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: Bomb's fault for being black. That is absolutely true. And

550
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: I bet if they'd been at high school with Ben Shapiro,

551
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,440
Speaker 1: they would have had an interaction. Yeah. I bet if

552
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: uh him in high school, be like, you're gonna go

553
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 1: to prison, prison, and nobody knows your name and nobody

554
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 1: knows your name Star football player that everybody knows unreal,

555
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 1: so good. The uemployment rates crap climbed me on ten

556
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: percent and is headed towards the mark if you counted

557
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 1: those who had stopped looking for a job. The real

558
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 1: unemployment rate was closer to which was the unemployment rate

559
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: during the Great Depression UM and never was close to

560
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 1: that during Obama's administration. UM cool. So Prescott did what

561
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: Prescott knew how to do. He survived the easiest way

562
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: to survive in his predecessor's wars, no matter what the cost,

563
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: and then pump up the spending at home. There was

564
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: no glory to be one on the poppy fields of Afghanistan.

565
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: Ever Lasting glory didn't come in the form of military

566
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:38,080
Speaker 1: victory in this day and age. It came in the

567
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 1: form of everlasting social programs that grew and inured to

568
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 1: the benefit of all Americans. He's saying, that's benefit. He's saying,

569
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: not fighting a hopeless wars that waste all of our

570
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: money and and benefit national security not one iota, and

571
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: instead spending the money to help Americans is bad. That

572
00:33:55,360 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 1: it's cowardly. This is unbelievably every pundit should before to

573
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 1: write a novel like I want to know what's in

574
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: your soul. I want to know what's in there. Yeah,

575
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: I've read one and it's bad. I run for president.

576
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:15,240
Speaker 1: I will publish my bad novel. Just like spooky stories

577
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: and animalphous parodies, Cody, it's not fair to call them

578
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,879
Speaker 1: animorphs parodies. They are animorphus erotic fiction, and I think

579
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:27,799
Speaker 1: you know what I will say, erotic literature. I don't wait,

580
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 1: you've read it and I haven't. Thank you so much,

581
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:37,959
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for saying it is. My book

582
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,919
Speaker 1: is going to be just for kids, for kids about

583
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: being It's going to be a girl in her imaginary

584
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 1: friend Donkey. That's a good size. That's a good idea

585
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:54,360
Speaker 1: for a book less thirsty than Cody's book, which is

586
00:34:54,640 --> 00:35:00,760
Speaker 1: drier than the Sahara. It's desperate. But he was thirty

587
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 1: seven minutes late. We can we can rise him a

588
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 1: little one note, Cody, Uh, there's actually no such thing

589
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: as a funk panther. Prove it. I dare you to

590
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 1: prove that. Somehow, I think there's a fun panther in

591
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 1: this book. Yeah, several couple of type in panther. Let's

592
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: see how many time? Um, I wonder if the word

593
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:24,840
Speaker 1: funk disappear in this at all, I bet not. I

594
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 1: bet he. Oh my gosh, no, nineteen matches. He is

595
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 1: Brent asterisk bred badass, is a military loose cannon off.

596
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 1: He doesn't give a fun Oh boy, fuck you, motherfucker.

597
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 1: Get the funk out of my hood to get him

00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: in the funk off my border. Fuck these animals, That's

599
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 1: what I was looking for. Unless he's actually talking about

600
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,399
Speaker 1: fucking animals, and I'm going to pop right over there

601
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:52,800
Speaker 1: and see if it's Oh, the Taliban had used the

602
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:54,800
Speaker 1: hangar as an execution post. There was a line of

603
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: bodies lying on the floor, and many of them wearing

604
00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: American uniforms. Those bodies have been mutilated obscenely. They done

605
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 1: it slowly, that they'd enjoyed themselves. Animals, he said softly,

606
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 1: fuck these animals. Okay, so not actually fucking animals. Yeah,

607
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:17,720
Speaker 1: that's cool. I was gonna comment on the poorly written

608
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,919
Speaker 1: aspects of it. Is badly written. All. Yeah, more about

609
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 1: the president. Okay, FDR was worshiped not because of World

610
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: War two but because of social security. Wait, who's speaking

611
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 1: right now? The president? This is just a rant. Bins

612
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 1: going on it again. About the president who can't afford

613
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 1: something that we haven't been told what it is yet.

614
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,919
Speaker 1: I love this is just like one of his town

615
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 1: hall dot com like essays that he's like, they're not

616
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: going to publish this, I'll put it in my book.

617
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 1: Oh my god. So Prescott spent he spent on green technologies,

618
00:36:52,160 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: on education programs, on food stamps, and highways. It's fucking highway.

619
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: He's going to use this so the pores can drive

620
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 1: to work the pavos. I I love that. So far.

621
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,720
Speaker 1: The message of the first page of the President Prescott

622
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 1: chapter is that he's a coward for spending money on highway?

623
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 1: Is it not Afghanistan? Were you scared of the guns?

624
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: I am, Why don't you invest in human beings? Lies? Unbelievable, unbelievable.

625
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 1: So yeah, this obviously spending money on Americans rather than

626
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 1: Afghanistan destroys the economy. He's making a great point. Yeah,

627
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: he's making a very important point. Um and yeah. And

628
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 1: so President Prescott starts to doubt whether or not he's

629
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:44,320
Speaker 1: going to win a second term, and then a miracle.

630
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 1: In the middle of the night, Prescott woke up with

631
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 1: a phrase ringing in his brain over and over. It

632
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:51,360
Speaker 1: was as though a higher power had placed them in

633
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 1: his mind. He grabbed a pin from his bedside drawer

634
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:57,280
Speaker 1: and wrote it down, work freedom, the work freedom program.

635
00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 1: That's how God's or yesterday. Yeah, he woke up with

636
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,279
Speaker 1: the melody in his head and he had to write

637
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,479
Speaker 1: it down. So he kept going to all his friends

638
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 1: and me like, does this is this anything? Okay? Wait?

639
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: What this is? Like a really gross Ben thinks he's

640
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,919
Speaker 1: being smart, but this is a Holocaust reference that he's making.

641
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 1: He's comparing social welfare programs to the Holocaust. Let me

642
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,319
Speaker 1: let me read you this paragraph. Everyone recognized the value

643
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 1: of freedom, but what did that mean other than the

644
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: right to a job? Freedom and nothing? If you couldn't

645
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,320
Speaker 1: put bread in your children's mouths at night? And America

646
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 1: was a country of workers. Freedom was work, and work

647
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: was freedom. Work freedom, simple, easy, repeatable, genius. What was

648
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: stamped on the gates of Auschwitz and a number of

649
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 1: other death camps are bite mocked. Free work brings freedom.

650
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 1: That's literally what he is literally compared jobs program. Yeah,

651
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 1: I'm fucking believable. Yeah, it's believable. It's believable that you

652
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: won't who won't you know who won't make ghoulish holocaust

653
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,360
Speaker 1: comparisons to score a cheap political point against a fake president,

654
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:03,319
Speaker 1: Jordan Peter And wait, never mind, Hine Rand, no ship

655
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:12,959
Speaker 1: uh would be products and services, Katie. I can't believe

656
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 1: that was right. That was a real nailed it. You

657
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 1: nailed it. These products and services will in fact bring

658
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: freedom to view work freedom, the work freedom products that

659
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 1: advertise on this show. We're back, gang. It's time for

660
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,400
Speaker 1: me to admit something now forty or seven minutes into this,

661
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 1: which is that um, when we when we decided we're

662
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:40,840
Speaker 1: going to do another one of these, I really agonized

663
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 1: over which book to choose, and I really frustrated Sophie

664
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,279
Speaker 1: by going back and forth. We had a number of

665
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:49,799
Speaker 1: contenders for this, and I was worried that the Ben

666
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 1: Shapira book wouldn't be a good idea because I was like,

667
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 1: it's probably just like a really lame thriller like he

668
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 1: wrote like the like he had like a script for

669
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,799
Speaker 1: a generic action movie and he wrote it, and we're

670
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 1: just gonna be like reading through turgid prose about shooting

671
00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 1: people and it's just going to be very boring. I

672
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,439
Speaker 1: would have to be like twenty minutes and be like, Okay, guys,

673
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, we gotta like revamp and figure out something else.

674
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 1: I've learned so much about it. I believe that this

675
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: was a script he pitched around and then, and I

676
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 1: am certain that in his head his dream was that, like,

677
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to pitch this script and myself as a screenwriter.

678
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 1: But once they meet me, they'll be like, the only

679
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 1: person who can play play Brett's like John Wayne was

680
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 1: short and built the sets around him. You got to

681
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: change it. So Brett's actually a short, obnoxious guy. It's

682
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:40,320
Speaker 1: actually better and you're short on camera. It's better for

683
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 1: lighting purposes. Man. Then we love the script, but the

684
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,719
Speaker 1: protagonist needs to be more unpleasant to listen to. All Right,

685
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 1: give us some more all right, I we only have time.

686
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: We we we will not get through enough of this.

687
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,319
Speaker 1: You know what, Robert, that's fine. You know, I think

688
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: it's disgusting. I think it's I think it's embarrassing that

689
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:02,279
Speaker 1: we haven't gotten through this whole thing anything. That's fine,

690
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 1: But we gotta do like a ten part series. So

691
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:08,280
Speaker 1: we finished it, Okay, So what should we what should

692
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,239
Speaker 1: we what should we go through next? I feel like

693
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:13,239
Speaker 1: going through chapter chapter, We're just gonna get bogged down.

694
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,279
Speaker 1: Is there anything you want me to search for? Try

695
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,359
Speaker 1: to We'll have a question. So when when he ran

696
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:24,360
Speaker 1: into that future prisoner? Um, and he didn't say the

697
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 1: N word, but he thought the N word? Yeah? Was

698
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 1: it typed out? Was the word type? Oh? Yeah? Oh yeah,

699
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,400
Speaker 1: So I would say search for the other instances. I

700
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,320
Speaker 1: also wouldn't mind hearing about this. What was the woman character?

701
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 1: What was her description? What did she do? Um? Oh,

702
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: do you mean the militia leader? Yeah? Well I know

703
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 1: that her first chapter starts with her baking cookies for

704
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:50,400
Speaker 1: a swat team that's coming after her. Yes, no, I

705
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 1: mean mind checking that Outum, all right, are you absolutely

706
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 1: if there? I will lie about a lot of things

707
00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 1: to Cody, the coronavirus, for example, Yeah, but I will

708
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: never lie about Ben Shapiro's pros Sola Dad Central Valley, California.

709
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 1: The swat team didn't expect it the first time she

710
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 1: brought them cookies. Nobody brings the swat team cookies, but

711
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:18,320
Speaker 1: Sola Dad Ramirez Dyes, well, Solad Dead Ramirez knew the

712
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 1: value of good press, and she baked mean chocolate chip cookies. No,

713
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,800
Speaker 1: oatmeal raising here, she said, good naturedly, handing out the

714
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 1: meltingly hot treats to them in wearing full military here

715
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 1: and carrying M force set to burst number one. Ben,

716
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:36,600
Speaker 1: does he mean they were about to come? No? Um,

717
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:41,920
Speaker 1: So military grade M fours and similar weapons based off

718
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 1: the A R platform UM have a burst fire mode

719
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: which does a three round burst in in addition to

720
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 1: semi automatic. No one would use it in that situation

721
00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: if you are a semi automatic is primarily for killing,

722
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 1: like for actually trying to take aim shots. So if

723
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 1: you are entering a building in the thought that you

724
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 1: might have a gunfight, you're not going to have your

725
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 1: rifles set on berts. Sorry, it's just very Yeah. Also, um,

726
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 1: if just this is nitpicking, meltingly hot, something is melting

727
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: we as we the reader who assume that they're hot.

728
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:17,759
Speaker 1: You don't need to me. Yeah, it's very awkward. Um,

729
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 1: they all eat the cookies, which I feel like it's

730
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,400
Speaker 1: a bad call for a swat team entering a hostile

731
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:33,760
Speaker 1: You got to take the food the person you're rating.

732
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 1: Um is this Wait? So okay, so this woman, um

733
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:44,399
Speaker 1: is the cookie maker? Because also there's the other woman

734
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 1: right there was like his wife that a kid. Yeah,

735
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,759
Speaker 1: she's unconsequential, right, So that that's what like, there's nothing

736
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 1: else about So she's a right wing militia leader, I

737
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,920
Speaker 1: am going to guests, But she also knows her gender

738
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: role and how knows her way around a kitchen. Yeah,

739
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 1: meltingly hot cookies. It seems like she's a ranch owner.

740
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:06,719
Speaker 1: And there's the e p A ruled that there's a

741
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 1: type of rare fish um that was in danger from

742
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 1: water over use in the river and they were stopping

743
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 1: her from from doing her important farm work. Um, and

744
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 1: we're we're going to confiscate her property if she didn't

745
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 1: start stop watering her plants. Um. So h that's a

746
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:24,920
Speaker 1: way to frame it, I think. So. I think it's

747
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:26,200
Speaker 1: a mix of that and like what happened with the

748
00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: Bondi's god, yep cool. But yeah, but she she does

749
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 1: know how to bake, and that's important for a woman,

750
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 1: she protested. She sued it didn't matter, according to the government,

751
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,040
Speaker 1: that her husband's father had bought the farm worked it

752
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: up from nothing. It didn't matter that her husband had

753
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,760
Speaker 1: worked his heart out, almost literally on the farm, keeling

754
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 1: over at the ripe old age of fifty two while

755
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 1: grazing those damn cattle. It didn't matter that she had

756
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 1: fifty some employees and their families depended on her. All

757
00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 1: that mattered was the smelt that damn fish. It's definitely

758
00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:01,959
Speaker 1: the exactly yeah it is, it is, and it kills

759
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 1: all her cows. So she Oh my god, there's even

760
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: a reference to you guys ever done like a lot

761
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: of driving up the Five from Los Angeles nurds. You

762
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 1: know how they have all those like Congress made dust

763
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 1: bowl Pelosi even there's even a direct reference to that.

764
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 1: They're making her the character who put those signs up.

765
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: You know what I've always wondered. I have to drive

766
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,760
Speaker 1: up there frequently because my family lives in the Bay Area,

767
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 1: So I make that drive a lot, done a dozens

768
00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 1: of time, and I'm always wondering, who did this? Are

769
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:36,440
Speaker 1: there any ones that say, stopped by for my meltingly

770
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 1: hot cookies? Nope? I wonder how solidad Ramirez feels about immigration.

771
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 1: Oh boy, well, good news, Katie. She was a week

772
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 1: away from filing I think for bankruptcy. Yeah, yeah, filing

773
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 1: for bankruptcy when she received the letter. It came from

774
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,760
Speaker 1: one of her former employees. Emilio. He'd immigrated from Mexico

775
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 1: decades before, across the border illegally. She'd paid him well,

776
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:04,359
Speaker 1: sponsored his citizenship, and brought his family over to join him.

777
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,320
Speaker 1: He's a valuable employee, she told her skeptical friends, and

778
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:08,799
Speaker 1: if you were living on that side of the border,

779
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 1: wouldn't you jump it. He's not taking money from anybody

780
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 1: except me, and I'm paying him for work. He was

781
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:15,120
Speaker 1: one of the last men to be laid off as

782
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: the ranch died. She cried the night she told him

783
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,359
Speaker 1: the cash had run out. He thanked her, hugged her,

784
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 1: and moved his family to Los Angeles. So he writes

785
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:26,839
Speaker 1: her a letter, Well, that's a good immigration story. I guess. Well,

786
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:31,280
Speaker 1: I feel like if you do a search for Emilio,

787
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 1: oh good Christ. Oh no. He became almost almost so.

788
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:42,320
Speaker 1: He and his family had been forced to take a

789
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:46,279
Speaker 1: small apartment in East Los Angeles, and Emilio had gotten

790
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,040
Speaker 1: a job at a factory, a local one of those

791
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: classic East factors, so their sun. Juan had been enrolled

792
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 1: at the public high school that's where he'd been killed.

793
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 1: One of his classmates apparently had tried to recruit him

794
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: into a gang when he refused, several of the gang

795
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 1: members found him in the bathroom. They started punching him. Yeah,

796
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 1: they beat him to death for not joining a gang. Yeah,

797
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: they did. Uh, Football, gangs and factories. It's just so

798
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 1: he's so simple, he's such a simple boy. So she

799
00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:27,600
Speaker 1: she refuses to pay her tax bill and instead sends

800
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 1: the money over to Emilio so we can bury his

801
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 1: his his boy, um who didn't said no to gangs. Yeah,

802
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,279
Speaker 1: and then that's why the swat team comes after her

803
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:39,120
Speaker 1: because she's not paying her taxes because she had to

804
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: help Emilio bury his gang killed boy. And that's what

805
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,440
Speaker 1: starts the standoff. Let's stand him for the Bundy standoff

806
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:49,160
Speaker 1: that happened when the bundees refused to actually pay mandatory

807
00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 1: grazing fees that were very clear and very fair for

808
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 1: more than a decade until finally there was an action

809
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,840
Speaker 1: that was then stopped because the government got scared because

810
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:03,399
Speaker 1: we don't, or at least didn't live in a Yeah,

811
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 1: this is a rich tapestry. There's a lot that brings

812
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:12,320
Speaker 1: up really important moral questions and we shouldn't mock it. No, No,

813
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,320
Speaker 1: it's good, you're right, it's good. I don't mean anything.

814
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:19,360
Speaker 1: I just said, Oh, he talks about there's a character

815
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 1: named Levon. There is he talks about. Oh my god,

816
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:29,880
Speaker 1: Levon not a white character. Really, No, Detroit, Michigan is

817
00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:35,480
Speaker 1: where Van and the first sentence of Levan's chapter is

818
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 1: Detroit was a ship hole. But it was his ship hole.

819
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:41,680
Speaker 1: I hate this so much. That's the way Levan Williams

820
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 1: had thought of it. He'd grown up in this ship

821
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: hole right near eight mile Road along stretch. It is horrible.

822
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 1: This is horrible. Oh my god, I will not have

823
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 1: Detroit and like, just write a book you like saw

824
00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:01,800
Speaker 1: eight Mile with Eminem and it takes place your dorm

825
00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 1: room when you were in law school. That's the world,

826
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,839
Speaker 1: you know. Oh my god, he must right, he must

827
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 1: talk about rap baddles. Let's I'm just gonna see. Oh

828
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 1: my god, there's no Let's see if there's hip hop

829
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,080
Speaker 1: or like I'm trying to think of like, it's not

830
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:22,360
Speaker 1: his vernacular, the words like man, why are you doing that?

831
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:26,320
Speaker 1: What are you? Yeah? Yeah, yeah it does. It doesn't

832
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:29,399
Speaker 1: look like we have that problem. Thank God for small miracles, Yeah,

833
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:34,800
Speaker 1: thank God for small miracles. Well, guys, I don't know

834
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,919
Speaker 1: how much more I mean we could, we could, we could,

835
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 1: we don't seme for hours, um, but we can't because

836
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,840
Speaker 1: time is Yes, Cody, could you real quick just search

837
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 1: for the word Marxism. Oh my god, of course, thank you,

838
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: of course, let's just see marks. Yeah yeah, Marxism. Oh no,

839
00:49:54,880 --> 00:50:00,239
Speaker 1: only once where um the president's plan to uh, actually,

840
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna read you with the President's plan because this

841
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 1: is what Ben essentially calls Marxism and socialism. This is

842
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:11,359
Speaker 1: the president speaking, the evil president who doesn't want us

843
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 1: to be in unemployment. I premise you right now that

844
00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:19,160
Speaker 1: you will not pay one additional dollar in Texas for

845
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 1: this program. You will not lose your job, and if

846
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 1: your employer should selfishly fire you, we're establishing a business

847
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,120
Speaker 1: trust to which our businesses will contribute, which will pay

848
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 1: your salary during rainy days. Businesses may try to scare you,

849
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,239
Speaker 1: but people are always frightened of what they do not understand.

850
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:39,560
Speaker 1: Selfishness must not be allowed to trump the vital liberties

851
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:42,760
Speaker 1: of the American people. And this action will not contribute

852
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,800
Speaker 1: to our national debt. It will contribute to our collective wealth.

853
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:49,840
Speaker 1: With the entire American population working, produce and creating, not

854
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:53,320
Speaker 1: just eight percent or ninety percent or even nine. We

855
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:59,279
Speaker 1: will boost our gross domestic product exponentially. Is like, what

856
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:04,120
Speaker 1: if there was a social safety net? Horrible? Damn you

857
00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:12,759
Speaker 1: amazing one? Last one? Yep, do a search for um

858
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:19,479
Speaker 1: I Q Oh boy, oh Cody, maybe just a shot

859
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:23,759
Speaker 1: in the darkness. Nope, nope, no, no, okay, that's for

860
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:29,360
Speaker 1: his other book. This has been not that illuminating. I

861
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,360
Speaker 1: mean it has been eliminating, but only in affirming the

862
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:35,400
Speaker 1: things that we know. Um, just for a number for numbers,

863
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:41,359
Speaker 1: sick patriot? Oh boy, yeah, let's see that only two? Yeah?
