Please welcome 8 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: back to the show, Ellen Scandling. Hi, I'm so happy 9 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: to be here again. Oh yeah, yes, thanks for coming back. 10 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: Thanks for coming back. What's new? How are you doing? 11 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 1: I'm good, I'm good. Do you have the group joint roller? 12 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: I don't have the group joint roller. I'm sort of 13 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: a pre roll buyer. Sorry, well, no, I buy pre 14 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: rolls too, because there are ones that are okay. This 15 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: is the thing. I usually wouldn't buy pre roles because 16 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: the flower that was in pre roles was just like 17 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: the cast it off shake and like not yeah exactly, 18 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: go Like I'm trying to eat chicken tenders, you know, 19 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: real meat. So I would always buy the flower and 20 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: roll my own. But now there's a lot of pre 21 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: roles that are pretty pretty potent. But also there's some 22 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: trouble because these dudes in California like suit this company 23 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: because they're like, yo, you're lying about the percentages on 24 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: your fucking pre rolls, because that is another are hiding 25 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 1: a percentage, You're hiding a less potent pre roll behind 26 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: these numbers. But yeah, what's your with I feel like 27 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: a lot of people and they're going to dispensary shorthand 28 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: is like how high the percentages? But I've also experienced 29 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: things like that the percentages aren't necessarily indicative of what 30 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: how I'm gonna you know, take that in what's what's well, 31 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: how do you determine, you know what what pre rolls 32 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: right for you? Well? I think the first thing that 33 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: I learned after being in the industry for a while 34 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,239 Speaker 1: is that Sativa indica hybrid is not really going to 35 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: help you very much. And it's tough because that's kind 36 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: of what's available and that's the classification and that's usually 37 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 1: how people will start. But it's it's more of a signal. 38 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: I think, like if you say I want an indica, 39 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: the bud tender is sort of triangulating that to say, 40 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 1: like this person wants to chill out. This person wants 41 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: to be mellowed, stiva. You want something energizing, have intrusive 42 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: thoughts in my case, right, yeah, you know, I tell 43 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: them how I want to feel. Um, I just go 44 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: in with a handful of cash and you're like hid 45 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 1: like one happy please, a happy giggly day please, no 46 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 1: stress and one mild panic attack. That was my order. 47 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: Damn I shouldn't have ordered that. That's what sucked me up. Yeah. 48 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: I think you'd just be chill and not panicked. Oh okay, 49 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: well they you should go to this side of the store. 50 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: Oh fantastic. So I start there, and then we have 51 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: we created this list of the twelve essential strains that 52 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: we think, you know, everyone should have in their stash. 53 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: And you don't have to have all twelve, but maybe 54 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: two or three. And so I kind of use that 55 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: as a guide, like, you know, if you like O. G. Kush, 56 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: then tell them that if you like. If you like 57 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: a strain, then usually I say I like that. What 58 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: else do you have? I have some brands now that 59 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: I like to so I get a little brand specific. 60 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 1: But it's tough. I mean, walking in it's like you 61 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: are a kid in a candy store. But there's so 62 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: much candy and you don't really know what any of 63 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: it tastes like, and so it's a little bit hard. 64 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: The shopping part is still evolving. I think for sure, 65 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: what are we going to start getting days international days 66 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: for for a specific strain? The way that what what 67 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: was the wine that had is today? Which like, no 68 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: matter what kind of wine you drink, the drunk is 69 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: the same. I know, like alcoholics like to be like, no, 70 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: actually I was white wine drunk and was feeling very bubbly. 71 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't believe any of that ship, but 72 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: like weed is much more different. It should have more 73 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: like knowledge of the strains than all the knowledge around 74 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: different wine types. I mean, yeah, it's yeah, where is 75 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: our wake? Where is our fucking O G Cush Holiday? 76 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: I proclaim August eighteen, eight one eight as O G. 77 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: Cush Day to celebrate the O.

I'd love to give you a candy cigarette. 82 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: You can have a drink a little grape juice and 83 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: have a nice candy cigarette and I'll sit and I'll 84 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: be sipping lean and smoking up blunt. What is something 85 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: from your history? All right?

Keep this overload it. 98 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: So when a new Pokemon game is released, there are 99 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: new pokey like individuals Pokemon's who are introduced, so that 100 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: that's what is exciting.

Yeah. 116 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: I'm I'm personally in the in the process of like 117 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: the Pokemon wave is coming with my four year old 118 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: and six year old, Like my six year old friends 119 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: are talking Pokemon. He just hasn't gotten interested in it, 120 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: and so I'm just like, I'm gonna have to do 121 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: a deep dive. I'm gonna I'm gonna, you know, have 122 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: to know what any of this ship means in the 123 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: not too distant future. But for now, I am enjoying 124 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: the brain space that I get to devote to things 125 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: that are not Pokemon. Don't be the dad that calls 126 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: everything Pikachu. Okay, there are many different versions. You should 127 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: learn at least fifty of them, and maybe give him 128 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: like an old school game boy so he can really 129 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: get down on some of the classics. But also des Okay. 130 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: Card shops all over l A. There's a ton of 131 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: them here. You can go and get like vintage. Some 132 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: people still like your whole binders.

Give him 134 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: some cards he don have the actual game, and he'll 135 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: be hooked, and then you'll have a fun way to interact. 136 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: You can teach you the game. You could just play it. 137 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: It's fun, you know, it's not looking at another screen. 138 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: It's also a good introduction to predatory capitalism because when 139 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: you're like six, there's like the seven year olds who 140 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: are like, yo, let me uh, let me see that 141 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: card here?

I'll be I'll be studied up 145 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: the next time this comes up on the daily said geist, 146 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: or maybe I won't. Maybe they'll just go in a 147 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: different direction. Minecraft is the other thing, but sure, what 148 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: is it?

Part of the fun of eating real food, 335 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: eating real fruit is yeah, yeah, you're playing apple roulette 336 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: every time.

I do want to 338 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: hear from any listeners if you if you are a 339 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: mushy apple person, I don't just don't just take the opinion, 340 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: but like, really, if there is a mushy apple that 341 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: you funk with, like you're a I feel like red 342 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 1: delicious tent to be on the mushier side. If you're like, 343 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: red Delicious is actually the best apple, but let me know, 344 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: because I'm I am confused about the persistence of the 345 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: red Delicious and some of the other kind of mushier 346 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: types of apple. All right, well, now that we've got 347 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: the important stuff out of the way, let's take a 348 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: quick break and we'll come back and talk about election 349 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: results and how different parts of the country are taking them. 350 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: And we're back, and I think it's time to check 351 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: in with Fox News again. It's it's always nice and 352 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: look how they're reacting to bad news for their party. 353 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: I love a little fascist freak out. I think we 354 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: can have a little Fox News rage as a little 355 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: treat for everybody this Friday morning. Why not, because they 356 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: are still angrily dealing with what the heck happened in 357 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: these mid terms. I thought it was a red wave. 358 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 1: Here's a fantastic supercut from Katabu on Twitter. I can't 359 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: believe John Federman wall this is in fact bad for 360 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,360 Speaker 1: the Democrats. They're gonna misread. This is like, oh, we 361 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: want Joe Biden was not punished morning. Had there been 362 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: a big red wave, everybody would be going blame Joe 363 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: Biden can't say that. You can't say that right now, 364 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 1: it's still a win for pro lifers. This new generation 365 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: is totally brandwashed. When we just owned the Libs, we 366 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: didn't win those races. This is not a surprise. We 367 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: knew it would be extremely tight. I got the red wave, 368 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: the red tide, whatever it was. It doesn't matter at 369 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: this point. They're always going to spend things against this. 370 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: Single women and voters under forty have been captured by Democrats. 371 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 1: So we need these ladies to get married. Okay, I've 372 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: been saying that for years, right, Yeah, So that's they're 373 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 1: they're starting like they're having a they're having an interesting week. 374 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: There was one where Tucker Carlson, I think night last 375 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 1: night or the day before, he was like, now, what 376 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: happens to all these people who we gave millions of 377 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: dollars to? Like he's he's so mad at like going, 378 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I think he I 379 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: think he's more speaking on behalf of probably these mega 380 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: downers that he convinced to go all in on these 381 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: mid terms, like this terrible fucking plan and is now 382 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: trying to put put it at someone else's feet. When 383 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: let's be real, like him and Hannity have some pretty 384 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: outsized power in terms of how the GOP might speak. 385 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,199 Speaker 1: I mean, can we also just have a moment to 386 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: recognize that. I guess it's gen z. They do not 387 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,959 Speaker 1: do surveys. Too many surveys, too many surveys already in 388 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: their life. They're like, I'm not, dude, a survey. Yeah, 389 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 1: like I don't pick up calls from my fucking gramm. Yeah, survey, 390 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 1: we'll show up. Yeah. I mean, although I you know, 391 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: I do think just yelling, yelling at your viewers is 392 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: the way that they've always energized their party, So I 393 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 1: would really which I feel like it's all part of this, 394 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,679 Speaker 1: you know, basically dominant submissive relationship they all have with 395 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,239 Speaker 1: each other, and now they're just it's like, how do 396 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: you what are you doing? You guys? Bad bad bad bad, 397 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: and so could be like okay, and like it will 398 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 1: it will actually energize them. So I'm a little bit. 399 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: I just see that, and I get I want to 400 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: revel in it, but it concerns me. Well. I think 401 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: it is interesting, though, is how few people who like 402 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: Republicans actually did lose elections. They didn't go straight to 403 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: the full shit thing, which is interesting. I'm like a 404 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 1: lot of people suspect that it could be because of 405 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: like the lawsuits that are hanging around and like potential 406 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 1: other legal issues that might arise from that kind of 407 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 1: like election denialism, that may have hampered the appetite to 408 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: do that. But that was one thing I was fully like, okay, 409 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: because before we heard like people in certain countries like 410 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: we already want an audit of the vote, like before 411 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: election day, So that felt like a preview of things 412 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 1: to come. But it hasn't quite materialized in the way 413 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,199 Speaker 1: I had feared. Yeah, and that's super cut. I forget 414 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: who said it, but just the and Biden wasn't punished 415 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: totally sounds Yeah, that was totally sounds like when the 416 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: Grinch is mad that the Christmas still went on it 417 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 1: came with no ribbons came. Here's the sound of singing. Yeah. Right, 418 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: So let's talk about because I also feel like there's 419 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 1: a inability to cope with what we've seen in some 420 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: you know, more local but very like yeah, I guess 421 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: also in the Fetterman race, but like progressive values had 422 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: a really good day at the pole, and specifically like 423 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 1: the crime wave narrative that I think a lot of 424 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: the mainstream media, even though they're supposedly liberal, they really 425 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: bought into this that like crime wave is going to 426 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: scare voters. We must Democrats, must double down on police, 427 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: must do this, And like it's been just a persistent 428 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: narrative ever since Chase A. Bootine in San Francisco, like 429 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: was recalled. The media has been like progressive politics is 430 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: a loser. It's a it's a wave of we're all 431 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:05,360 Speaker 1: fun and that that just really hasn't born out. But 432 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: we're still not really seeing that messaging breakthrough. No, it's 433 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 1: it's interesting again, no one's really talking. There were a 434 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 1: lot of progressive days that either were elected or reelected 435 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: across the country, you know, like this is like like Philly, Chicago, Iowa, Texas, 436 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: Oklahoma City, like a whole assortment of states from red 437 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 1: to purple to blue. You know, they had it all. 438 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: And Oklahoma City, I just want to point out to 439 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,919 Speaker 1: not necessarily a place or like Iowa, Texas where the 440 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 1: shorthand of the media is like, oh, woke bastion, Like 441 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: you know, San Francisco, although like that one with Boudine 442 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: was a little bit of an out liar, because San 443 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: Francisco is like a little more of a unique quantity. 444 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: When you look at electoral politics, billionaires like per square 445 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 1: mile of any locations. Most people are like, it's all dreadlocks, 446 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: and so like, no, it isn't. But anyway, in many 447 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: of these areas though where progressive days were elected or 448 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: reelected there, these they also have significant minority populations, and 449 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: those are the communities that tend to experience much of 450 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 1: the crime firsthand. So they are truly the ones too 451 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: when they're voting, are the ones seeing like, man, this 452 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: kind of fucked up policy does not work. In fact, 453 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: it's so regressive it actually just feels like people are 454 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: just held in captivity for money, which they are. I 455 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: want to put this quote from law professor Laura bas Alone, 456 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: who's from the University of San Francisco, was on Democracy 457 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 1: Now this morning. She said, was sort of describing what 458 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: is happening. Is this quote this understanding said, I think 459 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: what all this tells you is that this experiment, this 460 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 1: experiment with criminal justice reformed this understanding that we can't 461 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: incarcerate our way to safety. That the kind of cruelty 462 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: that some of these punishments are exerting on people to 463 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: no good effect. And then the other additional problems like 464 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: wrongful conviction or just criminalizing poverty so that rich people 465 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: who are dangerous can buy their way out but poor 466 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: people have to stay inside. That there are a lot 467 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: of voters who realize that none of these policies are humane, 468 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: just or effective. Yeah. Well, and I think just also 469 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: like just let's turn a complete blind eye to all 470 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 1: the white color crime, like it is so focused so 471 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: specific on you know, basically a poor person, a poor 472 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: or a crazy person is going to shoot you. That's it, right, 473 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: rob you and shoot your assault you and shoot you 474 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: whatever that is, and that that's it, and and why 475 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: is that? You know, Well that gets a little muddy. 476 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: But all all of the white color crime, all of 477 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 1: that is just always sort of like no, no, that's 478 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: under control, which is because you could, yeah, like you could, 479 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: you could probably drop pretty interesting lines to like corporate 480 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: profit hearing and poverty to the people they're like, and 481 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: then those people are like, oh, I'm poor and violent. 482 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: I think the real violence is actually happening in the 483 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: cease weeks of a lot of these corporations. But I mean, 484 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: I was just in. I was in, took my son 485 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: because it was day off school to the mat and 486 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: just looking. You know, there's still some of the galleries 487 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: are the Sackler galleries, and we all know about the 488 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 1: Sacklers and their involvement in profiting so highly off of 489 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: oxycode and and selling opiates and marketing that, and you know, 490 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: I think there was there was definitely something talked about 491 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: were those people? Yeah, is why isn't that a story 492 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: every single day? You know? Of course I think, yeah, 493 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: when we have such like media consolidation with the billionaire class, 494 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: like they know, it's like, dude, that's the people, the 495 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: guys who owned this place, they might not want stories 496 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: like that coming out of exact talk about the poor people, 497 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: all right. They affectively marketed and created a problem that 498 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: is still killing hundreds of thousands of people, like killing 499 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,239 Speaker 1: people every day in the local media. And instead the 500 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: local media is focused on like too much shoplifting and CBS. 501 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, And I obviously I live in New York, 502 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: so that is a place that is the story of 503 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: crime always exists. And I know people who some of 504 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: my families in Canada, but even other places, they're always 505 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: like God, I got New York must be so scary 506 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: right now, and I'm like, it is that. That was 507 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: one of the social media responses. I saw the people 508 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: on you know, l A had a lot of progressive 509 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: candidates do very well and progressive ballot measures and the 510 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: existing sheriff get voted out, like definitively, and I saw 511 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: a lot of people being like, well, you must be 512 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: the only person from l A who hasn't been mugged 513 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: or robbed this year.

Okay, 544 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 1: you're visiting seriously, but so the New York Times I 545 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: want to specifically call out for their lack of coverage 546 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: and not not just lack of coverage of like this 547 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: progressive movement and grassroots movement that we're seeing like come 548 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: through and start to show real promise in some of 549 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: these local elections. And you know, in the big what 550 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: was supposed to be like the focus of the election 551 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: night with with Fetterman defeating Oz, but like there, I 552 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: don't I don't feel like they've really figured out how 553 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 1: to spin that. And to that point, The New York 554 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: Times the day after the election published a piece in 555 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: the opinion section, but it was very much couched in, 556 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: like here statistics and here are the facts, and we 557 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: talked to posters and a Harvard sociologist. The article is 558 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: titled for Republicans, crime pays, no matter what else happens, 559 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: and the entire premise of the article is that the 560 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: Republicans really doubled down on crime in this election. I'm 561 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: just gonna read a quote like they quote a Democratic 562 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: polster is reinforcing this point that like it's a winning 563 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: it's a winner for Republicans and a loser for Democrats. 564 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: And this is a quote from a poster. The mid 565 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,239 Speaker 1: terms will be remembered as a toxic campaign, but an 566 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 1: effective one in labeling Democrats as pro crime. Greenberg wrote 567 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 1: in how Democrats Mishandled Crime, a November three American Prospect article, 568 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: when voters in our survey were asked what they feared 569 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: the most if Democrats win full control, and then like 570 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,719 Speaker 1: just chose crime and homelessness out of control. You know, 571 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 1: all all of the talking points that go along with this, 572 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 1: But the article just I think they they wrote it 573 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: before the election result and just removed a couple of 574 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: the more strongly worded parts because they even mentioned Pennsylvania. 575 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:10,280 Speaker 1: The Republican focus on crime is reflected in spending data 576 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,320 Speaker 1: on November three and the reason Republican attacks on crimer 577 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: so potent, Lee Jao, a reporter at Fox, Republicans have 578 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: spent a hundred and fifty seven million on crime related ads, 579 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 1: and the breakdown is even starker in the Pennsylvania Senate race, 580 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 1: where Republicans have spent nearly twelve million on crime ads 581 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 1: compared to two point five million on the economy and inflation. 582 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 1: And they don't go on to mention that that was 583 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: a loser, that was a losing strategy, and it just 584 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: it goes down like they go they go down to 585 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 1: interview like Paul the gala and be he's like it 586 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,479 Speaker 1: worked for Clinton. They just need to be really tough 587 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: on crime and double down on policing and the death 588 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 1: penalty and just all these like old school like nineties 589 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 1: political to work after the riots, Like you know what, 590 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 1: I mean, what the what then are we talking? Yeah? 591 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,479 Speaker 1: Then maybe when people were ignorant, is ship like it's 592 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: so weird. I'm wondering when the new like when all 593 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: corporate media, like, I mean, they're never going to be 594 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: like they've really shown they are so out of touch. 595 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: Nothing they said is just is in touch with anything. 596 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: The amount of red wave coming, red wave come in 597 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: coverage on the New York Times like this was this 598 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 1: was an article from what October nine Democrats feared Red 599 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: October has arrived. Many Democrats hoped it would be a 600 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: weird election. But with election day just three weeks away, 601 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 1: the make terms aren't shaping up that way. And but 602 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: let's pretend that motivated people. Let's just pretend that it 603 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 1: was there was some potential. And let's just pretend you know, 604 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: even in New York, where if you were a Democrat, 605 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 1: people are always like, oh, your vote, and you know, 606 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: it counts, but it doesn't really count. You know. I 607 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: was at a show with a bunch of people that 608 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: work in politics and they were like, you, every vote 609 00:35:56,680 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 1: is going to count tomorrow, Okay, yeah yeah. And I'm 610 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 1: a new devoting so I just became an American citizen recently, 611 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,239 Speaker 1: but I was definitely gonna do it. Thanks. But I 612 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: do feel I haven't seen the note the numbers on 613 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: the turnout, but I felt like it was really good. 614 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 1: So I don't like that we are driven by fear. Yeah, 615 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 1: I mean New York was a little different. It wasn't 616 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: great for Democrats, which a lot of people were surprised 617 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 1: because the party ended up fighting a bunch of like 618 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 1: left like candidates on the left, like spent more energy 619 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: fighting candidates on the left than like attacking like this 620 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:38,360 Speaker 1: crime like Lee's Eldon's crime Wave insistence, which motivated a 621 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: lot of Republicans to come out like in an interesting way, 622 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,240 Speaker 1: because I think that's where New York is a little different, 623 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 1: because it is so blue. Every Republicans like exactly get 624 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: them all out, like they fully turned up. While I 625 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: was like, it's fine, I don't know, New York is 626 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 1: not that blue. By the way, New York is, first 627 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:59,279 Speaker 1: of all, historically like there they've been like they were 628 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 1: pro slabor at the beginning of like they when it 629 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: was you know, the duchy East Indie colony founding it, 630 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:09,720 Speaker 1: and like that kind of reverberated down through the politics. 631 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot of Republican mayors and ship there's a 632 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: former chief of police mayor, like New York City has 633 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 1: like very you're you're right, it's like very specific and 634 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 1: unexpected politics that don't really fit into the overall narrative. 635 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: I mean more in the sense of like for the 636 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 1: Republican voter, they can look at a Democrat governor, senator, 637 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 1: other leaders in that sense to say the leadership is 638 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: blue and that is a motivating force for people to 639 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 1: come out. But I'm wondering, like, you know, so there 640 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: have been so many bad takes and shout out to 641 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 1: the people on Twitter that I've just been collecting everyone's 642 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 1: terrible bad faith arguments prior to the election, because we 643 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: really should be like what's your strategy for like having 644 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: better like a better way to engage with like the 645 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 1: stories that are happening, rather than seeing like what the 646 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 1: herd is doing them, Like, well, here's my take on 647 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: the herd mentality just all editorial, just all editorial. Yeah, 648 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,879 Speaker 1: it's all covering it like it's a sporting event and 649 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: when when Like so, this article doesn't explicitly do this, 650 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 1: but it does essentially do this, which I think is 651 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 1: sort of the mainstream Democrat and mainstream media apparatus sort 652 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: of I don't know conception of how Democrats can possibly 653 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 1: conceive of crime. They can either double down on like 654 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 1: like basically be a Republican about it and be like 655 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: we need to fund like extra fund the police and 656 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: support the death penalty like Clinton did. We can ignore 657 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 1: that crime is a problem, or just say defund the 658 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 1: police and offer no further context. Like those are the 659 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: three options that they're dealing with in this article, and 660 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 1: it's just like a Tucker carlson Ian bad faith argument 661 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: of like how how to even approach this? And so 662 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 1: they published this article after this overall strategy was shown 663 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 1: to backfire in a lot of like really significant ways 664 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: for the publican party, and they completely ignore anywhere where 665 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: there is like this alternative messaging that came through and 666 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: worked like at a local level that you know, we 667 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:17,799 Speaker 1: talked on yesterday's episode about Kenneth Mahia, who ran a 668 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 1: campaign that was he's like thirty one, just really focused. 669 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 1: He he was a defund the police candidate and that 670 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: was like his most explicit position, and he outperformed both 671 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 1: mayoral candidates, both the like very mainstream Democratic candidate and 672 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 1: also the you know, fake Democrat Republican Rick Cruso. He 673 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: vastly outperformed them by just giving specifics, by just being like, 674 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: here's like when when you say defund the police, look 675 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 1: how much they are funded compared to everything else. And like, 676 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 1: so all you needed to do was speak honestly and 677 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 1: respect people's intelligence on the sub jack instead of like 678 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 1: this whole Paul Begala James Carville thing where it's all 679 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,759 Speaker 1: this like smoking mirrors and we have to message it 680 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: this way and people don't understand. You can't get them 681 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:15,760 Speaker 1: in touch with their safety unless you do a real horrible, violent, 682 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 1: active front of them and in front of the police. 683 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 1: Dumbest thing I heard since my mama tried to put 684 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,640 Speaker 1: a boot on my head and call it about what 685 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 1: the are you talking about? I think it all you're 686 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: what you have to say, They're all broke down when 687 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 1: you said and respect their other person's intelligence. That is ridiculous. 688 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: We do not do that. Okay, can do that, that's work. Like, so, 689 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,760 Speaker 1: I I do think this goes like each generation gets 690 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,279 Speaker 1: a little bit savvier at dealing with the media than 691 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,800 Speaker 1: the previous generation. But the media is run by older 692 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 1: generations and they are working with assumptions that like people 693 00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 1: are different than they actually are. And that's what Like 694 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 1: we saw gen Z actually come out and vote and 695 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,360 Speaker 1: they didn't vote the way that anybody in the mainstream 696 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 1: media expected them too. And it's like, yeah, they voted 697 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: in a way that seems like they're just getting at 698 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 1: the problem right, aligned with their values and based on 699 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,440 Speaker 1: policies and based on you know, all the stuff that 700 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: we're trying to actually talk about in a real way 701 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 1: instead of yeah, is all the smoke and mirrors and 702 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 1: the this is gonna happen. Just wait, you're gonna wake 703 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 1: up and all your rights are gonna be stripped away 704 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 1: and then what are you gonna do? Yeah, And it's 705 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,280 Speaker 1: I keep comparing it to like that m Night Shamalan 706 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 1: movie The Village, where they really think you just keep 707 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: telling everybody the same ship over. You don't want to 708 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: go out there, you don't want to see what's out there. 709 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 1: But guess what, most people are living out there. You 710 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: don't actually live, so your village asked messaging doesn't resonate 711 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 1: to somebody village lives who lives in the area. Or 712 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,799 Speaker 1: they're like, yeah, that's the motherfucking airplane. Yeah you didn't 713 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,320 Speaker 1: hear about it that in the village. Well that's on y'all. 714 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,840 Speaker 1: And this whole election, I feel like it was really defined, 715 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 1: at least to me, is what I'm seeing, like broadly 716 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 1: by just people beginning to feel the disconnect between policies 717 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 1: that uphold the status quo and what their actual day 718 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 1: to day lives are like, and from they're using their 719 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 1: own intelligence to be like I see somebody who's destitute, 720 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 1: or I look at my own situation where I can 721 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,959 Speaker 1: barely afford housing, and I don't think the plan should 722 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: be Yo, get kicked these people out to the Mojave 723 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,439 Speaker 1: desert where they can just expire in the sun. It's 724 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:31,279 Speaker 1: I think we need more affordable housing, right, you know, 725 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: they're like the funk is going on? These woke people 726 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 1: know what about tax cuts for luxury planes? I do? 727 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,959 Speaker 1: I do have to call out this Harvard sociologist though 728 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: for they they made this claim, so they were like, 729 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: democrats want to claim that crime isn't a problem, but 730 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 1: that ignores that crime is a problem in you know, 731 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 1: black neighborhoods and poor neighborhoods. So you know, not funding 732 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 1: the police is racist, is essentially the argument that they make. 733 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: And it's like, like, to your point, Miles, we saw 734 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 1: that people who live in neighborhoods that are affected by 735 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 1: higher crime are not buying into this bullshit and narrative 736 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: that like the way to attack this is by fucking 737 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 1: funding a police force that acts like an occupying army. 738 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 1: Like they know that this is bullshit and getting Paul 739 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:28,720 Speaker 1: Begala and a Harvard sociologist to tell them otherwise, isn't 740 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:33,319 Speaker 1: isn't tricking anyone? Yeah, well yeah, give them all don't 741 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: remember That's how we saw Thanks good mall guns. Why 742 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 1: does the name one have a gun? Yeah? Exactly. And 743 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 1: then even then a lot of people are like, no, 744 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:43,759 Speaker 1: I don't, I don't even think that what they also, yeah, 745 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,280 Speaker 1: they quote that so because this is a crime article, 746 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 1: they had to like quote the crime statistics, which are 747 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 1: very like complicated and they point in different directions and 748 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 1: different parts of the country, and they were like, but 749 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 1: the one thing we're seeing is more gun violence and 750 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,399 Speaker 1: more murders. But they don't mention like, because there are 751 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 1: way more guns, and anytime there's more access to guns, 752 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: that's what happens in in this country, because again, that's 753 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: just seen as a I guess, childish argument because it 754 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,719 Speaker 1: doesn't take into account the reality that like, well, you know, 755 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,720 Speaker 1: gun manufacturers own all of us, so we can't actually 756 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 1: say that, were you a child, Go the funk out 757 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:28,399 Speaker 1: of here, right exactly, Quiet daddy's listening, right exactly.

There's recently a Cinemark map, 793 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 1: So Cinemark the theater chain created one of those maps 794 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 1: where like, this is everybody's favorite movie theater candy by state, 795 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 1: and it is one of those maps that actually seems 796 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:12,880 Speaker 1: to be based in fact. You can tell because the 797 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: results are pretty boring in some cases, like there a 798 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 1: big chunk of the country is just like, yeah, we 799 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,920 Speaker 1: like eminem peanuts, just just like you would expect because 800 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 1: eminem peanuts are good. Somebody writing about it was like, 801 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 1: is it do they like eminem peanuts because they come 802 00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 1: in yellow rappers and that's the easier, easiest snack to 803 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 1: see in the dark. It's like, no, have you ever 804 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:38,720 Speaker 1: eaten in a movie theater? It's about no, look eating 805 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 1: the whole time.

Who is putting that thought into it is 808 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,360 Speaker 1: being like which of these is going to be easiest? 809 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: For me to see in the dark.

You take your raisinnuts, you sprinkle them 816 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 1: on top of that popcorn. You sit in the dark, 817 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 1: and handful is like a bite of a burst of 818 00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 1: surprise and joy. I just I've also had major stomach 819 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:35,800 Speaker 1: pains and vomiting after it's do not sit well in 820 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:39,400 Speaker 1: my stomach. But when oh, they're so fun going down 821 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 1: and tastes like I don't like their taste at all controversial. 822 00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,919 Speaker 1: Mainly I have not gone to the movies yet. I mean, 823 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 1: you should come here. You could just drive up and 824 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,439 Speaker 1: we should go see um Wakanda together. We can see 825 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,399 Speaker 1: it three times. We're going I'm going purposefully to the 826 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:02,760 Speaker 1: blackest theater in Oakland at Grand Lake. Grand Lake Theater. 827 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:07,080 Speaker 1: That's where we're going to go see it. And mine 828 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:17,479 Speaker 1: is whoppers here chocolate, they're balls. Thank you very much. Yes, 829 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 1: although they crunch and that's not ideal for a movie situation. 830 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 1: I realized that still it's love whoppers. Mine's also not 831 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 1: on here. But Miles, you do yours first. But what's 832 00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:36,359 Speaker 1: going on? You're really nonrepresentative. I'm telling you. It's like 833 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,919 Speaker 1: the elections. Thank you very we're out here. Just look, 834 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 1: we contain Malta. This is America, you know, don't just 835 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,799 Speaker 1: reduce us to one logo on the state. I would 836 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: eat like nerds ropes if they have them, Yeah, fantastic, 837 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:53,600 Speaker 1: or like Twizzler. I think I had some recently that 838 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:55,839 Speaker 1: you could like split apart. Though no, it's like our 839 00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 1: think it's like a sweet and oh you know what, 840 00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 1: it could be sweet and tart ropes. Sweeteart ropes are 841 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 1: the number one Aska theater in Alaska. Now that's next 842 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:12,400 Speaker 1: to eating Dungeoness crab in the theater. But yeah, I 843 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:15,800 Speaker 1: like I like the fruity, kind of like sour candies. 844 00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 1: Like I'll go crazy if I'm like on four twenty 845 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 1: when I went a couple of years ago, I got popcorn. 846 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:23,680 Speaker 1: I get a little bit bit of a cup of 847 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 1: nacho cheese to dip my popcorn in. Wow, okay, because 848 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 1: I'm a savage. Then I get the like the candy 849 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:33,880 Speaker 1: ropes or whatever, and then I got to have some 850 00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 1: kind of peanut butter situation. It could be recent, it 851 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:40,440 Speaker 1: could be peanut Eminem's. Can I just say Red Vines 852 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:45,839 Speaker 1: headquarters is five minutes away from me? Okay, So let's 853 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,319 Speaker 1: say I realized that we never we just started in 854 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:51,440 Speaker 1: talking about our favorite, but we should say so at 855 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: the number one answers, Eminem peanuts and Eminem peanuts are 856 00:50:55,080 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 1: dominant from Texas and every state surrounding Texas. Essentially, it's 857 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:04,359 Speaker 1: also Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, like a bunch 858 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:06,879 Speaker 1: of a bunch of those states or not New York. 859 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 1: Actually New York is cookie dough bites. So Eminem peanuts 860 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:14,200 Speaker 1: have like a big stronghold in big chunks of the 861 00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 1: country that are very populous, and also Wisconsin. And then 862 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:22,800 Speaker 1: there is a big divide. It was mentioned before Miles 863 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,719 Speaker 1: said red vines. One of you said red vines or 864 00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 1: Twizzlers or twizzlers or red vines, they are separate. They're 865 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:33,440 Speaker 1: different candies and Twizzlers are the East Coast, and then 866 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:37,040 Speaker 1: red vines are so red vines are the number one 867 00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 1: candy Washington, ore again, California, Nevada. It's it's the most 868 00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:46,800 Speaker 1: it is holding down an entire Idaho, Colorado, it's holding 869 00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,760 Speaker 1: down that entire chunk of the map and nowhere else, 870 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,400 Speaker 1: nowhere else. Yeah, but red vines. So red Vines started 871 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:58,319 Speaker 1: in Chicago and Twizzlers I think started in New York. 872 00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:02,359 Speaker 1: And it's been that way since day one. That they're like, 873 00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 1: you know, regionally, it's either you know, either the Mississippi 874 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:11,360 Speaker 1: or west of the Rockies. We we don't know where 875 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:15,879 Speaker 1: exactly to divide. Red vines are dominant on one side 876 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 1: of the country and Twizzlers. Wonder what the story is there, Yeah, yeah, 877 00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:23,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, I wonder if like if you 878 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:27,840 Speaker 1: went into like a movie theater and like fucking Maryland 879 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 1: or something, and you're like, let me get some red 880 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,880 Speaker 1: vines and they're like red vines, Like if they would 881 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 1: if it would be like that kind of an outward thing, 882 00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:36,799 Speaker 1: because when I didn't know about red vines when I 883 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 1: grew up on the East Coast, I only knew of Twizzlers. 884 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:43,319 Speaker 1: I didn't know about I knew about Twizzlers from the commercials, 885 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:46,360 Speaker 1: but I never saw Twizzlers in the store. Growing up 886 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,239 Speaker 1: in l A. I always saw red vines. That big 887 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 1: tub of red vines. I've always like, I don't know, 888 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:54,239 Speaker 1: that used to be a thing we would rink root 889 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 1: beers out of. So Twizzlers is owned by I think 890 00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 1: Mars or Hershey, and so I think they're Twistler's headquarters Lancaster, Pennsylvania. 891 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 1: Red Vines headquarters a five minute walk from me, So 892 00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 1: maybe it's just shorter trucking times. Yeah, I mean. Twizzlers 893 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:18,080 Speaker 1: origins are traced to New York's Young and Smiley confectionery 894 00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:21,080 Speaker 1: firm in eighteen forty five, which was bought by her 895 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:25,640 Speaker 1: She's in nineteen seventy seven. And then the American Liquorice 896 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:30,280 Speaker 1: Company of Chicago premiered it's black liquorice vines in nineteen fourteen. 897 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 1: And then the classic Raspberry Vines, which is what Red 898 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:38,439 Speaker 1: vines original name was, made their debuts six years later. 899 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:42,920 Speaker 1: Our red vines raspberries. They're supposed to be raspberry, are they? 900 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:47,040 Speaker 1: I don't funk with either really, because they're they're not 901 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:49,759 Speaker 1: tard enough. I need them to like nerd ropes are 902 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 1: the are are the rope that was promised, like I 903 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 1: needed to be like sweet and tart. I don't. I 904 00:53:56,600 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 1: don't like they're just both so dull. So yeah, that 905 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 1: that is my preferences. The sour Patch kid, my teenage daughters, 906 00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 1: Welcome to the world candy. Yeah, I think they mixed 907 00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 1: the best with popcorn too. I love to dump my 908 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 1: Sarura Patch kids. They also so I was gonna say 909 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 1: the raisin nets, I said earlier when you're talking about 910 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,160 Speaker 1: raisin nets that you can dump the whole box in, 911 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,360 Speaker 1: but actually raising nets, they all go to the bottom, 912 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:30,400 Speaker 1: so you have to do a layered thing. You have 913 00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:34,799 Speaker 1: to do like an Sara Patch kids, though like for 914 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 1: whatever reason, they don't always fall all the way to 915 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:39,759 Speaker 1: the bottom. You can, you can dump. Can I ask 916 00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:43,239 Speaker 1: a question, why are there states that have none Like 917 00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: Maine apparently has no favorite candy They refused to report, 918 00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:53,359 Speaker 1: Like Cinemark doesn't operate there. Maybe yeah, I think that's 919 00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:57,560 Speaker 1: probably a Cinemark doesn't have any chains there. Oh, they 920 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:03,400 Speaker 1: operate New Hampshire, but not Vermont. Huh okay being drawn 921 00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:07,239 Speaker 1: but and like, yeah, twizzlers are also like I know 922 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 1: people who are like you gotta get a fresh batch 923 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: of Twizzlers. You gotta get a fresh batch of Twizzlers. 924 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 1: I just got someone I know like got a like 925 00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:18,439 Speaker 1: a shipment of Twizzlers recently, and they're like, I got 926 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:25,720 Speaker 1: fresh ones, come triumph.

It's better like when 936 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:56,640 Speaker 1: when it's kind of new, like when you're eating Halloween candy, 937 00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:59,400 Speaker 1: like in the New Year, that that ship is not 938 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:02,359 Speaker 1: is no longer any good right for the most part. 939 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:06,040 Speaker 1: I mean, the neighborhood kids took everything but left the 940 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:09,439 Speaker 1: tutsie rolls, which really surprised me. I loved to see rolls. 941 00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:18,920 Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of or the candy. I like it. 942 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 1: It's good, but they kept they kept like moving literally 943 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:28,960 Speaker 1: moving them aside and looking for the sour stuff like Jack, Yeah, 944 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:32,240 Speaker 1: I like this so our stuff the kid kids these days. 945 00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 1: That's that's how you know we're a young hip podcast. 946 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:39,719 Speaker 1: We say, yeah, they like the sour candy, that's for sure. 947 00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:42,840 Speaker 1: Nine Boys, the six nine Boys should have done a 948 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:47,239 Speaker 1: collab with the makers of the Tutsi role. They never did. 949 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 1: There's probably some commercial somewhere. I mean, what happened to 950 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:54,840 Speaker 1: Quad City?

It was like, really 962 00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:50,360 Speaker 1: is a hard moment. I think it's probably because we've 963 00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 1: worn it out, but it's still wow. They really don't 964 00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 1: so they can't brutal they so they cannot dig it.
