And I think there's just like 89 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: a real seasonality to the rhythm that we consume, like 90 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: because this would normally be the NBA seasons, people are 91 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: watching it.

There was just like I only 169 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: my only issues. Whether it wasn't like, oh this movie 170 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: is awful, it's like there were just a couple of 171 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: plot holes that like for me, I was just like 172 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: getting fixated on because like I love comics stuff. And 173 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: then I was just like what al right, well uh? 174 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: And then her majesty, who's not a comic book person, 175 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: was also confused by this like one element. But other 176 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: than that, I mean, ship, it's it's basically free. You 177 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: complaining about it. That's again it's like airplane ship. I 178 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: was like, cool, new for the thing I have not 179 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: seen that was supposed to be in theaters. I will 180 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: just sit on my couch and press this triangle button. 181 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: Great Crispine apparently comes back uh in a body switching 182 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: a switch eru respect method, which I think people are 183 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: mad about. But it definitely, like just all the sounds 184 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: of it sounds like it has like a very like 185 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: intentionally goofy eighties movie vibe to it. Yeah, probably, And 186 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: I think it just doesn't. I think it's a steady 187 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: didn't nail all of that to put you in the 188 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: mindset to go, oh, the rhythm is such that I'm 189 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: watching an eighties sort of funny version. But Christin Wigg, 190 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: I think was probably was really enjoyable to see her 191 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: like play this other role that she's in, like rather 192 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 1: than just being like, you know, a sort of more 193 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: straightforward comedic character. Yeah, I feel like, yeah, I can't 194 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: I can't wait to see where Kristen Wigg goes because uh, 195 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, she's so funny and she's such 196 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: a like, yeah, she's so good and when she's got 197 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 1: the right role, but then there's like a lot of 198 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,439 Speaker 1: times she just like pops up randomly. Yeah, But I 199 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: think it's like a lot of things like you see 200 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: some comedic actors, because you know a lot of actors 201 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: will tell you comedy is harder than doing dramatic acting. 202 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: That to do comedy at at a level like where 203 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 1: the highest do. It is something that they all are like, no, 204 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: that that ship is harder than me, crying like I 205 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: don't know, and I think, but vice versa. But we 206 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: also see how many comedians actually end up being really 207 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:06,319 Speaker 1: solid dramatic actors because their foundation so fuck ship. I mean, 208 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: will like Kristin wigg be the nude fucking Meryl Street 209 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: who knows close I don't know mcgrouber, her turn in mcgrouber, 210 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: one of the guys still pull like a Jonah Hill. Yeah, 211 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: like I'm not a comedic actor. Yeah, it's like no, 212 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: and then we're like, we'll hold on, Kristen, don't don't 213 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: go all the way there. I mean not to say 214 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 1: that you aren't a good dramatic uh performer, but you 215 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: are very much a comedian who's at the top of 216 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: their games. Yeah, that should be the something that you 217 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,319 Speaker 1: wear as a badge, because a lot of comedy or 218 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: a lot of dramatic actors can't pull off what y'all do. Um, 219 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 1: Yeah except for us. Yeah, yeah, triple threat over here, 220 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: I cast us and he'll Billy Elegy exactly. Uh into Yeah, 221 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: what was that? That's of that thing they made you 222 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 1: looking like shallow May. Oh yeah, that was that was 223 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: ordered by Theresa Lye, the very funny stand up Treasaly. 224 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: She was like, yo, because I think on a on 225 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: one of our year end episodes was talking about me 226 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: having like how I would look with Timothy shallow May vibes. 227 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, and uh he made it so it 228 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: was haunting. Let's talk about John Mackie. He is the 229 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: CEO of Whole Foods and he solved America. Uh so 230 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: that's that's cool. Moving on hearing anything that the CEO 231 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: of Whole Foods is trending, I'm like, what kind of 232 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: take what happened? Because it's not like because the Whole 233 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: Foods is Amazon, so it has nothing to do with 234 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: really whole foods like that. So I'm curious where what 235 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: got this man's name trending? All right, I'm just gonna 236 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 1: read you the quote. I mean, honestly, we talked about healthcare. 237 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: The best solution is not to need healthcare. The best 238 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: solution is to change the way people eat, the way 239 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 1: they live, the lifestyle and diet. There's no reason why 240 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: people shouldn't be healthy and have a longer lifespan. A 241 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: bunch of drugs is not going to solve the problem. Um, 242 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: so come spend your entire paycheck at at Whole Foods 243 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: unless you work at Whole food in much case, you 244 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: can't afford to what the fuck the whole thing is? 245 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: You don't need it. You just need more health Then 246 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: you don't need healthcare. Okay, Please solve poverty. Next, eat 247 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: your way out of poverty and disease. You just need 248 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: more money, So do that. I okay, then easier said. 249 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: That's a very nice way. I mean, it's it's funny. 250 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: We've we've we've crossed paths with people of this mentality 251 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: of like, dude, what you eat supersedes everything else, and 252 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: everything you're experiencing is because of the food you eat, 253 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: not your genetics, not because of hormones, not because of 254 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: any other internal thing that could be going on that 255 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: differentiates one fucking corpse to the next. Uh. And it's 256 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 1: like this, I'm curious if John Mackie has that thing 257 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: where like we always say, you hit the genetic lottery 258 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: and now you're you're you're putting everything on the fact 259 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: that you drinking this shot in the morning, rather than like, yo, 260 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: you might just have really good genetics that are responding 261 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 1: all this. The genetic the circumstantial. This dude probably did 262 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: not pull himself up out of an orphanage by his bootstraps, 263 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: will be my guess. I don't know. I don't know 264 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: the story about John McKie, but I don't know. Yeah, 265 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: it's just it's very American, you know, American approach to everything. 266 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: We also, yeah, I'm like, I wonder, what what are 267 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: the health benefits like for your employees? If you're out 268 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: here being like, we don't need healthcare, I know that 269 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: I got ahead of that healthcare. You can take as 270 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: much celery home as you want. I do think that 271 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: they are notoriously or not notoriously. I think they're like 272 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: above average maybe to work for. But then there's also 273 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: you know, you hear the complaints. But then they're also 274 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: part of Amazon, which is has turned treating and paying 275 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: employees like ship into a you know culture. Yeah culture. Um. 276 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: And finally, uh Maria Bakalova, Maria Barkalova, m hmm, Maria Barkalova. 277 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: And then they called me missed al Bakalova.

That ends well. 325 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 1: One note on the whole back on the Whole Food story, 326 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: uh that this is not an up to date story. 327 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: But as for one of the possible reasons why the 328 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 1: CEO of Whole Foods might have been being asked about 329 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: healthcare uh when he tried to shift gears there, uh 330 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 1: is that in uh they were planning to cut healthcare 331 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 1: coverage for anybody working, uh for part time workers, basically 332 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: people who were working between twenty and thirty hours. So uh, 333 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: you know that would be nineteen thousand or sorry, nineteen 334 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: Whole Foods workers. We're gonna lose their healthcare benefits in 335 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if that ended up going through, but 336 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: that is probably a reason why, uh somebody might have 337 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: asked him so shout out to them, Oh wow, maybe 338 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: I mean just eight better and pay for more I 339 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 1: mean ten dollars aspara guess cups, Jack, put your fucking 340 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: helmet on and getting near your fainting couch. Because it 341 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 1: turns out he is what a self identified free market libertarian, 342 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: of course, ship it says as a As as a 343 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: beginning businessman, he was challenged by workers for not paying 344 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: adequate wages and by customers for overcharging. During a time 345 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: when he was having difficulty breaking even, he began to 346 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: take a more capitalistic worldview and discovered the works of 347 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 1: Ludwig Oh my god. Like, it's just he's just all in. 348 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 1: And also, I mean, I don't have to tell you 349 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: what comes after this if I told you he's a 350 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: he's a free market libertarian. You know who his favorite 351 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 1: author is already? Bah yeah, yeah, is so correct. I 352 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: ran he loves the novels of Iron Rand, so of 353 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 1: I mean, why are we fucking ever surprised? Like he's 354 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: just a fucking pair city of himself. Oh man, that 355 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: is shout out to shout out to that man. Although 356 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: in college was a democratic socialist. For the record, the 357 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: people who are right wing love to act like, you know, 358 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: I used to be left wing. But it's impractical. Oh 359 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: my god. Why of course, I mean, we've this is 360 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,479 Speaker 1: the thing, we've known. This guy sucks. But the more 361 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:30,120 Speaker 1: I'm reading he called Obama care fascism m M instead 362 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: of socialism, stating quote technically, oh my god, this is 363 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:38,360 Speaker 1: him defending Obamacare is fascism. Obamacare is just ineffective and 364 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: and bullshit and just you know, it's good for the 365 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 1: healthcare industries regardless. His take is quote technically speaking, it's 366 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: more like fascism. Socialism is where the government owns the 367 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 1: means of production. In fascism, the government doesn't own the 368 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 1: means of production, but they do control it. And that's 369 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: what's happening with our healthcare programs and these reforms. Um. 370 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it makes sense that he'd be a libertarian 371 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: because he is just somebody who went out there on 372 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: his own in the wild, was just born into the 373 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: wilderness without any advantage, and built himself a home from 374 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: just kindling. Uh no, actually his father was a professor 375 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: of accounting and CEO of Life Mark. Yeah. So he's 376 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: just been mainlining this bullshit and also that if you're 377 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: describing communism you funk with Yeah, all right, well that 378 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: is an appropriate cross section of this for people who 379 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: don't know the workers control the means of production and socialism. Yeah. Um, 380 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: just if you if you're a cross paths with John 381 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: big Mac, Mackie big Mac, how much you want to 382 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: bet his college or not, I don't know, but he 383 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 1: tried to get it going.
