Yo. These 211 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 3: are not great. These these sneakers are the because they 212 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,839 Speaker 3: have like a photograph printed on them.

All right, 563 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 3: So we still don't know much about the motive at 564 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 3: this point of the person who the twenty year old 565 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 3: Matthew Crooks. No, Matthew Crooks is his dad, right, his 566 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 3: Thomas Matthew Crooks. Thomas Matthew Crooks. That's how you know 567 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 3: three names. Yeah, But we continue to learn little bits 568 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 3: about him, like that his dad was like highly targeted, 569 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 3: highly indexed by the Trump campaign back in twenty sixteen 570 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 3: because of he had all the all the factors you 571 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 3: look for in a Facebook like data profile. He was 572 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,719 Speaker 3: like I think number seven of like thousands of people 573 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 3: in his town. 574 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 1: Like they're order to point ninety nine on a scale 575 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: of one point zero in terms of like what they 576 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: figured as like a voter who would be like especially 577 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: open to targeted messaging around gun rights. Yes, so I 578 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 1: mean all that really does is show that like crooks 579 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: came from a conservative home, but like really nothing else 580 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: about his motives. But meanwhile both sides continue to point 581 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: fingers and come up with all kinds of shit. There's 582 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: like it was Biden pulling strings with the Secret Service 583 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 1: to get Trump got or. 584 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 3: Trump definitely seems like by the way, like right now, 585 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 3: he seems like somebody who's just behind everything, pulling the strings, 586 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 3: super confident. 587 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: Sure sure, sure yeah. Or a lot of liberals are 588 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: coping by saying like this is Trump had to have 589 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: staged this to help, you know, really cement his candidacy. 590 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:33,959 Speaker 6: Uh. 591 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: Then other people like this is retaliation from the deep state. 592 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: Then there was like the Secret Service was trying to 593 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: make it look like an accident and they was gonna 594 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: get Jfkate or whatever. Then another person like it's the 595 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 1: fact that there were women that exist in the Secret Service. 596 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 3: That's that's why. 597 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 2: And fun that's clearly the problem. 598 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, the DEI bullshit is so on point, like for 599 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 1: the right, because everything is DEI now like it's whether 600 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: that's their way to be like not at this point, 601 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: not really coded racism but you know they're just like, 602 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to say the N word, saw say DEI. 603 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to say I outwardly hate women. I'll 604 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: let the policies speak for that, but I will I 605 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: will summon DEI as a way to cast dispersions on 606 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: the Secret Service. But like even Eric Trump was on 607 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: CNN like fully putting his support behind the Secret Service agents. 608 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: He said, quote, one of the females on the stage, 609 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: she's with me for three years. I know everything about her. 610 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: She would take a bullet for me. She would take 611 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: a bullet for him, as courageous as they come. Same 612 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: with everybody else who is around him. The head of 613 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: his detail was on that stage too, So according to 614 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: Eric Trump, quote the female one is okay. 615 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 2: The best way to know that you're an ally to 616 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 2: women you call them females. 617 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the females on this stage, I'm like, 618 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: are you on a men's rights podcast right now? What 619 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: the fuck are you talking about? And it was also 620 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: reported that earlier this week that the Secret Service was 621 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: actually became aware of a plan that the Iranian government 622 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 1: had a plot to potentially assassinate Trump said this quote, 623 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 1: secret Service learned of the increased threat from this threat stream. 624 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: The National Security Council directly contacted the Secret Service at 625 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: a senior level to be absolutely sure they continue to 626 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,479 Speaker 1: track the latest reporting, and they said as a result 627 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: of this quote, Secret Service surged resources and assets for 628 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: the protection of former President Trump. All of this was 629 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 1: in advance of Saturday. That means law enforcement was apparently 630 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: beefing up their presence and had were being extra vigilant. 631 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: Yet this person was able to climb on the roof 632 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: of a building that had law enforcement inside of it, 633 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: just to add insult to injury. 634 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 3: So wait, there is law enforcement in the building that. 635 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 7: He was on. 636 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 3: Yo, what does that sound? 637 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: It's like squirrels or something. But I think it's also 638 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: entirely possible that, like the police are not good at 639 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: their jobs. 640 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 2: WHOA. Obviously I don't say it with your whole. 641 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 7: Chiest Sorry, I don't know if I can, But maybe 642 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 7: I could also be true here because I've seen a 643 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 7: lot over the last few years that would suggest they're 644 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 7: not the best at preventing crimes. 645 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: They're usually really good at violating people's rights and personhood 646 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: or you know, ending their lives tragically. That seems to 647 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: be something that they have demonstrated high efficiency at. But yeah, 648 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. That's not the conversation being had right now. 649 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: It's either DEI or it was staged. Those are your 650 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: two options, Democrats and Republicans. I actually see no signs 651 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: of societal rot here at all. 652 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 3: We do not like incompetence as the explanation for a 653 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 3: historical event. Generally we will just write the incompetence out, 654 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 3: whether it be Hitler oversleeping on D Day and like 655 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 3: everybody being too scared to wake him up, and that 656 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 3: the thing that like helped the Allied forces win D Day, 657 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 3: or you know, the version of the jfk assassination, which 658 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 3: I think is the most reasonable explanation that a secret 659 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 3: service agent actually fired the third shot that actually struck 660 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 3: him in the head and killed him by accident. But 661 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 3: when you raise that possibility to people, they are hostile. 662 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 3: They're fucking they want you to shut up. Human error. Yeah, 663 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 3: they don't like that shit at all. I don't know. 664 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:28,239 Speaker 4: This sounds like a great topic for me to bring 665 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 4: up this Thanksgiving with my father. 666 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, we just don't want to admit that it's 667 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 3: a bunch of dummies out there. 668 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: What would the response be from your dad if you said, 669 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe they messed up and aren't that good? 670 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 2: Past the gin? 671 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: All right? 672 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 3: Well that is my favorite Thanksgiving side, is the gin? 673 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: The gin? Sure? Sure, sure, yeah, all right. 674 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 3: I do want to just touch on because the reasons 675 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 3: to replace Joe Biden have not stopped rolling in. There's 676 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 3: been some high profile moments, obviously in the aftermath of 677 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 3: an attempted assassination on one of the presidential candidates. He 678 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 3: had a couple of speeches that he gave. The one 679 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 3: where he said we saw resolve our differences at the 680 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 3: battle box and injured and. 681 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 1: He was seriously injured. 682 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 3: He was seriously injured, and the differences at the battle 683 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 3: box and seems to recognize it and then go back 684 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 3: and say battle box again. But that was pre taped, right, 685 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 3: That wasn't That wasn't like a live press conference in 686 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 3: front with an audience. It was like him at his desk. 687 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's him at the desk. But I don't know, 688 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 1: I honestly don't know the nature of whether it was 689 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 1: fully live or pre taped. Either way, he. 690 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 3: Just couldn't pull it off. He couldn't do the thing. 691 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 3: There's there's like this interview with Complex magazine where he 692 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 3: just like can't do it. It's like nineteen minutes. He 693 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 3: you know, it might seem like, oh, well, he doesn't 694 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 3: give a shit. He's like with Complex, but like that 695 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 3: he needs to nail every interview first of all, and 696 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 3: also you know, it's like a young audience who he's 697 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 3: really struggling with, and he just like can't maintain his 698 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 3: train of thought. Like there's one part where you know, 699 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 3: the first question the guy, the first question is like, 700 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 3: so you're getting up there, man, like a lot of 701 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 3: people think you're too old. And he I tried to 702 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 3: transcribe this, but he says, I didn't plan on running 703 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 3: because in twenty twenty, when Barack asked me to be 704 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 3: vice president, which was a tremendous honor, I joined him, 705 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 3: which was a great honor. But after that I became 706 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 3: professor at the Universe. It's just like the timeline is 707 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 3: like all fucked up. 708 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: And then he like brought up Charlottesville and you're. 709 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,839 Speaker 3: Like yeah, and that like all he had to say 710 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 3: was like, well, I did want to run, and then 711 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 3: Charlottesville happened and that's when I decided. But like he's 712 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 3: just he can't stay on point and eat. Like there 713 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:13,320 Speaker 3: are multiple times in this interview where this like eighteen 714 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 3: year old kid, I don't I don't know how old. 715 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 9: Speedy's speedy Speedy Speedy is bailing him out, Like multiple 716 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 9: times he's like okay, So that's later he's asked why 717 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 9: Trump has support of people in the hip hop community, 718 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,839 Speaker 9: and like Biden talks about his work on civil rights 719 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 9: in high school, I think, he says, but then like, 720 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 9: can we just play the ending of this, yeah, because 721 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 9: it's just he just shorts out. 722 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: And the number of folks participating didn't slow down because 723 00:36:54,200 --> 00:37:03,839 Speaker 1: it didn't reduce. So look, I you know Trump, there 724 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: are some people who've made their mind and they decided. 725 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 1: He said, oh, never mind. But you know, Trump, what 726 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: is it with Speedy doing interviews where people get like 727 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 1: the famous oh he's the Ray J indestructible su Yeah, 728 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: He's like, go ahead, Speedy, break them. They're come on, 729 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:31,879 Speaker 1: I don't care. And now Joe Biden is I here, But. 730 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 3: You know Trump pause pause pause. 731 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: He did a similar thing at the NAACP convention too. 732 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 3: It's just not working, Like it's just he's not like 733 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 3: this is alarming to anybody who's not lying to themselves right. 734 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:50,240 Speaker 2: Now, anyone who has a pulse. 735 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 3: So I don't know. So immediately after the assassination attempt 736 00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 3: on Donald Trump, people, we're making this argument that, well 737 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 3: that this stops the attempt to replace Biden in its tracks, 738 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 3: like the like they we can't that thing, that idea 739 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:17,359 Speaker 3: is dead and it doesn't make like there there's no 740 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 3: argument there, Like the only argument I've seen is that 741 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 3: Trump is like the attempted assassination is taking up all 742 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 3: the media attention, but like, we're not asking for you 743 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 3: to make a great TV moment, We're asking you to 744 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 3: do what is best for the fucking country. 745 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 4: And well, I think it's the same thing of like 746 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 4: all the dumbs are just stuck and pillaying respectability politics. 747 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 2: They don't want to they don't want to rock the boat, 748 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 2: like they don't want to. I don't want to change anything. 749 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, but wouldn't when everyone's distracted be a good time 750 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,439 Speaker 3: to admit, like to go ahead and do the thing 751 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 3: that you need to do with this candidate. 752 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,399 Speaker 2: And they're going to seize a good idea, right. 753 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well this is the thing with the d n C, right, 754 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,840 Speaker 1: Like they're just so fully controlled by like that donor class, 755 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,839 Speaker 1: and they do a great job, as we've seen over 756 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: the many years, at just outright ignoring public sentiment fully 757 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 1: and like for some reason, the conversation only got frantic 758 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 1: until after like the celebrity George Clooney in that New 759 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,879 Speaker 1: York Times breakup op ed was like, Yo, this dude 760 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: is a fucking scale. What are we fucking talking about here? 761 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 1: And not like it wasn't all the people saying he 762 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:31,280 Speaker 1: is too old for this shit for like literal years now, 763 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 1: like you know, like they did everything they could. They 764 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 1: nuked the primary debate schedule and pretty much forced this 765 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,359 Speaker 1: bad choice on everyone and hardly what I would call 766 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 1: a you know, like democratic process. Yet we're being like 767 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: beaten to death with this messaging about the fate of 768 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 1: our democracy. It's really frustrating. And it's the DNC, like 769 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: specifically that is like protecting Biden, and that's why we 770 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,919 Speaker 1: are now hearing talks of like a virtual role call 771 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: to accelerate his nomination right and basically have him be 772 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 1: the not Aye, like well over a month before the 773 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,320 Speaker 1: actual convention happens. And if that happened, that would effectively 774 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,920 Speaker 1: just make the actual convention meaningless. Like at the end 775 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: of August, the whole point, even though it is very ceremonial, 776 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: it's like to get a sort of you know, it's 777 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 1: like we're moving out of the primary season and now 778 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 1: we're into the general election season. Everybody's together, they're united 779 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 1: around the candidate. But if they're like, sorry, assholes, we 780 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,240 Speaker 1: did this one behind your backs. This is your fucking person. 781 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: Now you get to hear you know, Oprah make a 782 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 1: speech or something, it's a very different, different, very different vibe. 783 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,399 Speaker 1: And I think again that's sort of how the DNC works. 784 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: So it's like, we don't want anyone, we don't want 785 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: any debate. We're go, don't want to discuss anything. We don't 786 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,320 Speaker 1: want any dissent. Because you also think about the thirty 787 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: six delegates that are the uncommitted delegates in states that 788 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 1: we're able to have delegates be uncommitted, like in Michigan, Minnesota, 789 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 1: other states like that, that was that's a big moment 790 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: for those people to really air their grievances about what's 791 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 1: happening in Gaza and potentially get some kind of concession 792 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: from the administration or potential new administration. But if it's 793 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 1: all said and done, there's really nothing to be fucking 794 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: worked out at all, and it just becomes like a 795 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 1: foregone conclusion. And yeah, they just really don't want any 796 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: open descent on the convention floor. And this is just 797 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: sort of part and parcel of what they're doing. And 798 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: now they're just fully just doubling down on this terrible 799 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 1: fucking hand and demonstrating, you know that the lack of 800 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: awareness that has plagued them. 801 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 3: I mean they're actively pushing back against some of their 802 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 3: biggest donors right now, which you know, like that is 803 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 3: that's very UNDNC is to be like, well, what the 804 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 3: fuck do you know? Like your donors, Like they're donors 805 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 3: who are withholding funding from candidates like down you know, 806 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 3: down ballot, down ballot, local candidates, they're withholding funding from 807 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 3: them if they don't openly call for Biden this episode, 808 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 3: like they're like you that we need you to do that. 809 00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 3: I don't know if we're getting a you know, outsize 810 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 3: amount of attention on the people who want him to 811 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,880 Speaker 3: step aside, because that is the more interesting like news angle, 812 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,759 Speaker 3: and therefore it just seems like it's the consensus when 813 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,720 Speaker 3: it's a small portion of the consensus. But it does 814 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 3: seem pretty straightforward. But I don't know how you run him. 815 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 3: I just don't know how he continues to run the 816 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 3: country and run for president. 817 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, if like, if the decline was this series 818 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 1: between twenty twenty and now, right, that's it going to 819 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: look like between now, it doesn't get better even twenty 820 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 1: twenty six, like the mid terms, and then you're fully 821 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:41,279 Speaker 1: dealing with like a meme president where people like, dude, 822 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: this guy like the spooky Ghosts from Indiana Jones movie 823 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: in a super like No, it's like not gonna work. 824 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 1: It's just a and yeah, it's really It really hinders 825 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:55,320 Speaker 1: any kind of ground swell of support that could occur 826 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:57,680 Speaker 1: if there was a candidate where at least people are like, well, 827 00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:01,840 Speaker 1: at least that person could formulate a sentence coherently in 828 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 1: a debate consistently for the next four years. 829 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 3: Ish. Yeah, I mean Biden has said like his logic 830 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 3: is that he would only step aside if there was 831 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 3: a health thing, which buddy, I don't like, but I 832 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,439 Speaker 3: guess he needs the doctors who gave him a clean 833 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 3: bill of health like a few months ago, to come 834 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 3: back and be like all right, we're fucking around like 835 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:29,399 Speaker 3: you're you're a mess up there. Or he also said 836 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 3: if he thought there was no path for him to win, 837 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 3: not if he thought someone else had a better path 838 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:38,279 Speaker 3: to win. It's just if he thought he had no 839 00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 3: path to win, which is pretty wild. Like, so his 840 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 3: logic is entirely self centered, Like in that respect, it's 841 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 3: only the only thing that matters is that he has 842 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 3: a small chance at winning. They're trying to get us 843 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,359 Speaker 3: all on board with think about the collective good, Like 844 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 3: that's all I'm thinking about, is like what could possibly 845 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:02,359 Speaker 3: stop Donald Trump being a next president? Like that, you know, 846 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:06,560 Speaker 3: that's what everybody else is thinking about. And he's like, 847 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 3: only only if I can't possibly win, which seems. 848 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, just just wild. Well, this is the mindset that's 849 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 1: like so pervasive and dc just in general and politics. 850 00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 1: It's just you have some of these people who are like, 851 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:22,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna die holding on to power and that's like 852 00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 1: my right, and it only leads us to just again 853 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 1: nothing inspiring, more of the same and at worst seeing 854 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: this thing unfold in like a really grim way, while 855 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:37,400 Speaker 1: they continue to be like everything America will end and 856 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 1: you're like and we're counting on. Okay, okay, wait, as long. 857 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 4: As they can continue to just bang out the you 858 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,800 Speaker 4: need to vote, that's the only way you'll see change 859 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 4: party line. You know, it's just the assumption that everyone's 860 00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 4: going to get in the line because it can't get. 861 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 1: Worse, right, right, Yeah, it's yeah. Then that they've they've 862 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: done an amazing job at making this all like, I'm 863 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,359 Speaker 1: pretty I need to look at his website, but ago 864 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: there weren't really there wasn't really anything policy wise on 865 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 1: their campaign website. It was just like issues, which I'm 866 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 1: also like, come on, man, like where's the policy, Like, 867 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,799 Speaker 1: let's talk about policy rather than like, yeah, we know 868 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 1: body autonomy is important. What's your fucking plan? We know 869 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court is fucking corrupt and completely politicized. What's 870 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:26,520 Speaker 1: your plan? And it sounds like there he was supposed 871 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 1: to make an announcement on that about on Monday, actually 872 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:33,760 Speaker 1: about Supreme Court reforms, but again, the assassination attempt completely 873 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 1: has sort of derailed the speaking schedule. 874 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 3: So but they are expecting, like by the time you 875 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 3: hear this, there might be a plan out. It's supposed 876 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,480 Speaker 3: to be announced fairly soon. He's been working he's been 877 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 3: in the lab talking to constitutional scholars about about like 878 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 3: term limits and you know, various Supreme Court reforms. But 879 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 3: I think it would be pretty tricky to pull off 880 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 3: based on what I've read to this point. 881 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:01,399 Speaker 1: But yeah, what that plan is on Joe Biden dot 882 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:04,320 Speaker 1: com like under issues like it'll be things like protecting 883 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 1: and strengthening our democracy, growing the middle class, fighting the 884 00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 1: lower costs for working families. It's more just like and 885 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 1: it's always juxtaposed with like what the campaign believes and 886 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 1: then what Trump would do. And it's never thinking like 887 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 1: substantives like yeah, we need good high paying jobs. Okay, 888 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 1: talk about how that becomes reality. It's like we we 889 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:24,880 Speaker 1: we believe in good high paying jobs. And it's like 890 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:30,840 Speaker 1: but Donald Trump doesn't, Oh okay, give a little bit more. 891 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 1: Rather than just merely again they've this is like a 892 00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,360 Speaker 1: gift on the curse. It is the gift in the 893 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 1: curse and running against Yeah, it's the gift in the 894 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: curse of running against Donald Trump. As we've seen is 895 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: that the entire DNC strategy is just to merely just 896 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 1: gesture to the Republicans as their entire platform and be like, 897 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:54,480 Speaker 1: well that no, and it's just it's completely that well 898 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,400 Speaker 1: has run pretty dry. At this point, I feel like, yeah. 899 00:46:57,560 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 3: All right, well let's take a quick break and we'll 900 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,800 Speaker 3: come back and we'll talk about Twisters. 901 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 5: Okay, and we're back. 902 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 3: We're back, and you know, finally we have We're going 903 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,600 Speaker 3: to have resolution to all those pesky unanswered questions left 904 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:27,320 Speaker 3: dangling at the end of nineteen ninety six as Twister, 905 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 3: there's you know, is he his father? Will will they won't? They? 906 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:39,359 Speaker 1: Will he kiss the Twister? We'll see, we don't know, 907 00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:40,440 Speaker 1: a lot of tension. 908 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 3: But yeah, So we're seeing the release of the blated sequel, Twisters, which, 909 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 3: as mentioned, I was surprised to learn as directed by 910 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,920 Speaker 3: Lee Isaac Chung, the guy who made the acclaimed family 911 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 3: drama Manari a few years ago. 912 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:57,040 Speaker 1: Did you guys see Manari? I actually saw the like you. 913 00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,719 Speaker 1: It was like, I saw the first forty minutes of it. 914 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 1: I think something with the baby, and I was like, 915 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 1: I'm getting back to it. 916 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:05,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I watched the whole thing. 917 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,760 Speaker 4: I haven't seen the original Twister, but I've certainly seen Manari. 918 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:12,480 Speaker 1: Well, between the three of us, were covered. We're covered. 919 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:13,720 Speaker 1: We're covered. 920 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, we see Cinema. 921 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: Right, yeah, enjoy your little funny tornado movies. Okay, we 922 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,239 Speaker 1: like Christie Cinema. I get it. 923 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 3: But reviews seem to be mixed. Better than I was expecting. 924 00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 3: I guess. Before I knew that le Isaac Chung was 925 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:32,880 Speaker 3: the director, I was like, well, this is going to 926 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 3: be a turkey right, like this will this won't be 927 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,799 Speaker 3: a good movie by any means. The original was not 928 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 3: a good movie, and this is a sequel that came 929 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:45,399 Speaker 3: out twenty some years later. Those don't usually work out. 930 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 3: The only way it could be more I could be 931 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 3: more skeptical, as if it was a prequel somehow, like 932 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 3: Twister minus one. It's about the first Twister that ever happened. Yeah, 933 00:48:56,680 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 3: dirt Devil, Yeah right, right exactly, that's right, Twister. But 934 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,279 Speaker 3: the reviews seem to be mixed, with critics noting that 935 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 3: the tornado based thriller prioritizes and this is gonna surprise 936 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:12,799 Speaker 3: you guess spectacle over plot. Wait have they seen the 937 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 3: first one? Right? 938 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:19,440 Speaker 1: It was a movie about just running away from a tornado. 939 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:22,600 Speaker 1: That's all the movie is. And it's made to look 940 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 1: like it's basically a bunch of chase scenes of the tornado. 941 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 1: But yeah, I get it. 942 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 3: There's no plot tornado chase, tornado, fuck the movie. 943 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,799 Speaker 1: Running from the running from the tornado too is what 944 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:37,359 Speaker 1: essentially with this movie I think will be. But we'll see. 945 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:38,239 Speaker 1: I'm about to go see it. 946 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 3: And they're like, they don't run from the tornado. That 947 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 3: that's what's different about these folks the tornado. Other people 948 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:53,200 Speaker 3: they run from this guy he ride tornadom Anyways, the 949 00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 3: one detail that some people are pointing out is that 950 00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 3: none of the characters ever utter the words climate chair. 951 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:05,720 Speaker 3: This being a weather based action spectacle, you might assume 952 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:12,400 Speaker 3: that because in the real world tornadoes are becoming more 953 00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 3: widespread and more clustered, like they're more twisters scenarios where 954 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:23,640 Speaker 3: multiple tornadoes are happening around the same place and time, 955 00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 3: that it would be kind of right or even like 956 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:31,320 Speaker 3: weird not to mention it because it seems like such 957 00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 3: a tie in. But Chung has said that he doesn't 958 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 3: think films should be message oriented, which I don't like. 959 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:46,759 Speaker 1: What it's a choice, How do you I mean inherently 960 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 1: there is a message in some level. 961 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 3: There shouldn't be messages or meaning. 962 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 10: Even long legs, right, did Minari have a message to 963 00:50:57,280 --> 00:50:58,360 Speaker 10: you as you watch that. 964 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:04,239 Speaker 2: Yes, no, no, no, maybe I'm just like it. 965 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:06,840 Speaker 3: Was in a different language. So I was just. 966 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:12,840 Speaker 1: Seriously, I mean, as people who saw it, like, I 967 00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:16,920 Speaker 1: imagine there is he's getting at something in that film. 968 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, like I know. So he says he 969 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 3: claims his film is a reflection of the world, and 970 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,360 Speaker 3: pointed to one scene in which a local farmer complains 971 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,400 Speaker 3: that storms are more frequent, making the price of wheat 972 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:33,839 Speaker 3: more expensive. So like it seems like he's like, this 973 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 3: is a reflection of the world. This is how people 974 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:39,520 Speaker 3: would talk about this. They would not come out and 975 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 3: have a conversation about climate change. Maybe they wouldn't. They 976 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:50,440 Speaker 3: wouldn't have an explicit political message embedded in their conversations, 977 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:53,840 Speaker 3: which I don't know if that's true necessary, but I would. 978 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 2: Totally disagree with it. 979 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 4: There was an interview on NPR a couple of months 980 00:51:57,640 --> 00:52:00,000 Speaker 4: ago with a farmer I think from like an Oklahoma 981 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 4: who was talking about, you know, things that we're worried 982 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 4: about is you know, there's we're experiencing more dry spells, 983 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 4: hotter summers. 984 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 2: But he's like, I would never vote for a Democrat, 985 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 2: Like I don't believe in climate change. 986 00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 4: So it's I don't think it's like off topic, but 987 00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,080 Speaker 4: you know, to your point, like a film's the opportunity 988 00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 4: to do it. 989 00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:21,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, but I think part of me just knowing 990 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,879 Speaker 1: what the original was like and the reason why I'm 991 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:26,920 Speaker 1: even attracted by the proposition of a sequel is that 992 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 1: it's there is no message. You go to see a 993 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,960 Speaker 1: big ass finger of God as they call it, like 994 00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:38,359 Speaker 1: F five tornado touchdown and they run two or from it, 995 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:40,799 Speaker 1: and I don't know, like part of me is like 996 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:45,240 Speaker 1: I think maybe because the existential dread of climate change 997 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 1: is so pervasive that it's like, man, just even in 998 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:49,399 Speaker 1: this one, let me just watch the fucking twister blow 999 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,640 Speaker 1: truck away man and a cow flies up into the thing, 1000 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 1: and like let'sten talk about climate change and like let's 1001 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:54,760 Speaker 1: just let it be funny. 1002 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:57,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, you're not watching Jaws to be told that, like 1003 00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:01,879 Speaker 4: the water, the ocean waters overheating and are driven close. 1004 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 3: I have that exact thought that, like, if you know, 1005 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 3: Jaws had like a moment where they were like and 1006 00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 3: this is actually because of nuclear proliferation, I might be like, well, 1007 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:15,680 Speaker 3: that right feels a little weird. But at the same time, like, 1008 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:19,880 Speaker 3: I don't know, it seems you have tornado scientists, you 1009 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,960 Speaker 3: have like weather experts, and do we really. 1010 00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 4: Think that like meteorologists are like weather experts. This is 1011 00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:29,920 Speaker 4: my hot take, Like meteorolog or meteorologists real. 1012 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:32,320 Speaker 3: Do they even exist? 1013 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:34,879 Speaker 2: Can they predict anything at all? 1014 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 9: Like? 1015 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 2: What is the science there? 1016 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:36,879 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1017 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 1: I mean I feel like people who work in the 1018 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:42,720 Speaker 1: atmospheric sciences certainly, yeah, but like the weather person maybe 1019 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 1: a bit of a different bar scientifically to clear for sure. 1020 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:48,439 Speaker 1: But I mean like there's also like like obviously yes, 1021 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 1: they're like the logic of climate change would suggest that 1022 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,800 Speaker 1: they are linked, but even the people who are studying 1023 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:56,200 Speaker 1: this or like there, they still haven't found what they 1024 00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: would consider like a definitive link. And I'm not defending 1025 00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 1: climate change or any like that, but I think just 1026 00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:03,719 Speaker 1: part of me too is just like I don't think 1027 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 1: Twister might is the movie to fucking talk about that, 1028 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 1: because it's so stupid to begin with that. I think 1029 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,520 Speaker 1: they would just go in one ear and one out 1030 00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:13,799 Speaker 1: the other. 1031 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:14,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1032 00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:17,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean again it's I think it's I think 1033 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 1: would all come out in the wash either way. 1034 00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:22,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, I mean I think, like I'm sure there's 1035 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 3: like pressure from on high from you know, producers and 1036 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 3: studios being like, don't mention that because it's gonna first 1037 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,800 Speaker 3: of all, we as billionaires don't believe in climate change, 1038 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 3: and second of all, it's just gonna alienate some of 1039 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:40,920 Speaker 3: your view in public. But it's just across the board. 1040 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:45,080 Speaker 3: Like a recent report found that two point eight percent 1041 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,439 Speaker 3: of movies and TV shows from twenty sixteen to twenty 1042 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:51,760 Speaker 3: twenty include any mention of climate change. The word dog 1043 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:55,840 Speaker 3: was mentioned almost thirteen times as often as all thirty 1044 00:54:55,920 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 3: six climate keywords put together. So like just pulling a 1045 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:04,320 Speaker 3: random word a random. 1046 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 4: Subject, and you feel like that's a fair comparison, like 1047 00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 4: pull in like other policy issue. 1048 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:10,800 Speaker 2: Everybody loves dogs. 1049 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 1: Yeah right, right, yeah, I think And also like very 1050 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 1: American too, like yeah, we know this is America. People 1051 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 1: care more about dogs than fucking people here right, let 1052 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 1: alone their own. 1053 00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:24,520 Speaker 2: Earth right down here in Texas, than I do. 1054 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 1: Right exactly, So I mean, but it does show like 1055 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:33,120 Speaker 1: just generally too, like it most most films are really 1056 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:36,360 Speaker 1: not wanting to confront I mean, most films don't confront 1057 00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 1: a lot of serious issues in the way that arises 1058 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 1: to the mainstream, but are like you know, getting to 1059 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,879 Speaker 1: like the top, like the tent pole type movies. But yeah, 1060 00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 1: I think there there's certainly a way to have that 1061 00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:50,279 Speaker 1: in media that isn't being like that isn't going to 1062 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:51,959 Speaker 1: make someone feel I mean like there are always people 1063 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 1: are gonna feel like, oh, you're preaching to me merely 1064 00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:58,320 Speaker 1: because you acknowledged the changing nature of like our client, 1065 00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 1: like our Earth death. But you know, fuck those people. 1066 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 1: Just if it's relevant to your story, you can still 1067 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:07,520 Speaker 1: you know, feature that kind of concept in it without 1068 00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 1: it being anathema to people who are you know, don't 1069 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:11,319 Speaker 1: want to hear stuff like that. 1070 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I mean the movies that do reference climate 1071 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:17,320 Speaker 3: change tend to be like pretty apocalyptic in nature, like 1072 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 3: The Day After Tomorrow and stuff like that, So you 1073 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:25,279 Speaker 3: know that that's also probably leads people to down toward 1074 00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:29,520 Speaker 3: a direction of thinking that it's all hopeless and or unbelievable. 1075 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean. Like I remember 1076 00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:34,480 Speaker 1: going to see The Day After Tomorrow in the theater 1077 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,960 Speaker 1: and be like, holy shit, dude, you see the ice 1078 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:40,520 Speaker 1: just fucking like froze that wolf like in as it 1079 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:43,680 Speaker 1: was running. That's fucked up. And in my mind, I'm 1080 00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 1: never like Wow, this could be the Like, for whatever reason, 1081 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 1: Water World fucked me up more than The Day After 1082 00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:54,680 Speaker 1: Tomorrow and that movie literally doesn't mention climate change at all. Yeah, 1083 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:57,839 Speaker 1: but in my mind conceptual, I was like, what if 1084 00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:01,359 Speaker 1: they all melt? It's all water Now I didn't know that. 1085 00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:03,759 Speaker 4: My brain went right to Interstellar just because of the 1086 00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:07,879 Speaker 4: whole you know, dust bowl intro. Yeah, but that's I mean, 1087 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:12,040 Speaker 4: equally as unbelievable as you know, time nonlinear. 1088 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:14,000 Speaker 2: I'm not going to talk about the science. There's no 1089 00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:16,120 Speaker 2: way I can figure that. 1090 00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:20,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, okay, I think I think those are 1091 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:25,439 Speaker 3: both good examples of like how like a very specific thing, 1092 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 3: like you just take one of the things that could 1093 00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 3: happen and focus on that. Like, I agree, those are 1094 00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 3: the two examples that really stuck with me in the 1095 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 3: Day after Tomorrow. Seems like the dumbest possible approach, where 1096 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 3: it's just like ice laser is gonna come from space 1097 00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:45,120 Speaker 3: and freeze people where they stand, right, But. 1098 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 1: Like I think of it, like how Squid Game was 1099 00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:50,400 Speaker 1: such an effective critique of capitalism because they're not actually 1100 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:53,040 Speaker 1: mentioning it, but they're they're kind of setting it up 1101 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 1: like in this metaphor and like the stressors that like 1102 00:57:56,400 --> 00:58:01,440 Speaker 1: affect the character's lives where people immediately go like, oh yeah, dude, exactly, man, 1103 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,160 Speaker 1: it's like fucked up. And some people like arrive at 1104 00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:07,480 Speaker 1: WHOA like they have that moment. 1105 00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:09,800 Speaker 3: Because it's packaged, and some of us are just like 1106 00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:12,880 Speaker 3: that looks sick as fuck. I wish I could play 1107 00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 3: that game. 1108 00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:16,040 Speaker 4: Well, that's a great example because we took something that 1109 00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:19,040 Speaker 4: was meant to be, you know, a conversation about capitalism, 1110 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,120 Speaker 4: and turned it into a real thing that real people 1111 00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:21,760 Speaker 4: were competing. 1112 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1113 00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:27,760 Speaker 3: Last month, a environmental organization released a Bechdel Test esque 1114 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:32,800 Speaker 3: climate reality check, which evaluates whether a climate change exists 1115 00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:36,840 Speaker 3: in the universe of a project and b if a 1116 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 3: character knows that it exists. So it's like you can 1117 00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:43,640 Speaker 3: tell that a character is aware of the existence of 1118 00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:47,520 Speaker 3: climate change. And the numbers weren't great. Of the top 1119 00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 3: twenty box office earners between twenty eighteen and twenty twenty two, 1120 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 3: only four past this test.
