00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: Hello Internet, and welcome to this afternoon edition of the

2
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:06,399
Speaker 1: Zeit Wing.

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 2: Is pretty weird. Huh? That is our trending episode title,

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 2: because yeah, this is just so stupid.

5
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 1: The weird shit, the weirdo stuff is still got them

6
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 1: and just they don't know what to do. The couch

7
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 1: fucking shit is still continuing to run amok on the right.

8
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 2: It's everything we love to see. Anyway.

9
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: I'm Miles. I'm joined by Brian the Editor. Brian the Editor,

10
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: what's going on?

11
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 2: Hi? Hits me, Brian the Editor. I'm here, you're here.

12
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,480
Speaker 1: And we're here to tell you what is trending today.

13
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: On this Tuesday, July thirtieth, twenty twenty four, Joe Biden

14
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,880
Speaker 1: is trending because he announced some major Supreme Court reforms

15
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: via Washington Post op ed. He wants to limit justices

16
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: terms to eighteen years, introduce a binding code of ethics,

17
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: and is also proposing a constitutional amendment called the no

18
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: No One is Above the Law Amendment, which basically reverses

19
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court's recent presidents can just do whatever the

20
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: fuck they want to ruling.

21
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: No. I know this is a podcast, but if you

22
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 2: hear like a weird noise in the background. That's me

23
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: rolling my fucking eyes. Oh wow wow. Yeah.

24
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 1: I mean look, this is definitely like one of those

25
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 1: things where you go, that's a I like the sentiment,

26
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 1: but maybe this is something that could have happened, you know,

27
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: like earlier in the term, because right now there's really

28
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: I don't know where there's the political capital or will

29
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 1: to actually get this done. But again, we like the

30
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: sentiment because at the very least that is something that

31
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: needs to happen, like we need actual term limits, like

32
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: we need a way to you know, rein in the

33
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: Supreme Court. But like the Code of Ethics thing, it's

34
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: hard to know, like it has to truly be binding

35
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,559
Speaker 1: because right now they have a code of Ethics which

36
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: they just roll their eyes at and they're like yeah, yeah, yeah,

37
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: more on that later. I'm taking this RV money, try

38
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: to do something to me, So yeah, this is what

39
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,239
Speaker 1: you know. He even agrees that these are mostly symbolic,

40
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: but again that's that's it's kind of tough to hear

41
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 1: symbolic change.

42
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: When you Needreame Court literally said presidents can do whatever

43
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: the fuck they want, and he's just not really taking

44
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 2: the queue, don't I don't get it.

45
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean, I think this is one of

46
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: those things. It's like you need to say something because

47
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: it's bad. But again, you functionally, where how does this happen?

48
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 1: How do you make this actual law? How do you

49
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: get these constitutional amendments passed?

50
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 2: How do you make motherfuckers stop running wild? Yeah? How too?

51
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: We just don't know yet, But this is the monster

52
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: that has been created in the Supreme Court. Uh So,

53
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: at least the at least maybe he's trying to normalize presidents,

54
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: saying that we need term limits. Sure, but then we

55
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: need people who will actually turn that into tangible action.

56
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: So then we don't have to worry about the Supreme

57
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,959
Speaker 1: Court taking bribes or you know, whatever you want to

58
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 1: call it, gift pains and then not recusing themselves from

59
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: relevant cases or just you know, basically doing whatever they want.

60
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: But anyway, that is why Joe Biden is trending. The

61
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 1: other thing that's trending Disneyland. So we talked about their union,

62
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: fourteen thousand members strong union for the people that work Disneyland.

63
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 2: Everybody but Gary voted.

64
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, ninety nine percent voted to authorize a strike if

65
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: they don't ratify a contract or get the contract that they.

66
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 2: Felt was fair.

67
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: Well, guess what Disney knows that this is like the

68
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: height of the season for people to be coming in

69
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: the summer, you know what I mean, like with kids

70
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: out of school, and to shut down would be a

71
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: disaster financially. And on Monday, it turns out the resorts

72
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: unionized workers ratified a three year deal that includes a

73
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: twenty four twenty four dollars hourly minimum wage this year,

74
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: more for some other jobs, regular wage increases, seniority increases,

75
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: more flexible attendance and sick leave policies, and other benefits.

76
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: Most of these employees will be receiving an increase of

77
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 1: six dollars and ten cents per hour over the next

78
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: three years, and the contract goes into effect immediately upon ratification.

79
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 2: So look, hey.

80
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: Man, unions, there're it's like it's it's like when you

81
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 1: get together collectively, things can be achieved, like to see

82
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: Disneyland have to figure out.

83
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 2: Look, man, yeah, you actually we rely on them to

84
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 2: make the billions of dollars.

85
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 1: Some people are wondering if this will result in higher

86
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: ticket prices, because that's a lot of things you always

87
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: hear out of C suites to be like.

88
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 2: Well, you know, if we do that, then everything's going

89
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 2: to be more expensive.

90
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: But as of now it seems that the ticket prices

91
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: are stable. But this is only again after I mean,

92
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: it's only gone up since the pandemic. Yeah, because their whole,

93
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: their whole business strategy was well, let's just only appeal

94
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 1: to the people that can just.

95
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 2: Waste tons of money here at a time and other people.

96
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 2: May I remember with the whole that that's Star Wars Hotel.

97
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 2: Do you remember that? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, and it's

98
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 2: like it didn't work. Prices on that yeah, were so

99
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 2: wild for like a weekend, and you know that they

100
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 2: have they still have that kind of pull with certain

101
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 2: types of people where it's like, yeah, we'll empty our

102
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 2: bank accounts for this experience.

103
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 1: Good people take loans out to go do that because

104
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: it's sort of like embedded in American culture of like

105
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: the Disneyland trip or Disney World trip. So yeah, good

106
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: to see them paying. People love to see workers win.

107
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: Bless y'all. And before we take a break, Beyroot is

108
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 1: trending because Israel has bombed a target in Bairut, Lebanon

109
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: in retaliation for what they said was an attack from

110
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: Hesbola over the weekend, where twelve young people were killed.

111
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 1: This seems like a pretty big escalation. The Israeli government

112
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: has said that this is the end of it. This

113
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 1: is their response. They're not looking for a larger salation,

114
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: but it I don't know. Again, I think violence begets violence, uh,

115
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: And I don't see how this will end things. And meanwhile,

116
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: there there there's a lot of unrest happening within Israel

117
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: over the arrest of Israeli soldiers who were accused of

118
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: you know, sexually abusing detainees, torturing detainees. Uh. These are

119
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: Palestinian prisoners that they've taken from Goza. Many are just

120
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: people who get caught up in sweeps. And the arrest

121
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: of these Israeli soldiers has kicked off a lot of unrest,

122
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: you know, for people even arguing on Behalf that what

123
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 1: these soldiers did was heroic. So a lot happening there

124
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: right now. And I we'll see, we'll see, we'll see

125
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: how diplomatic channels are able to I don't know, quell things.

126
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: But as it stands, I don't seeing the footage of

127
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: of the bombing that happened in Beirut, that's not doesn't

128
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: doesn't fill me with feelings of peace. But yes, that's

129
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: the current state of things at the moment. Fun, let's

130
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: take a quick break. Yeah, because meanwhile, evangelicals are like

131
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: they're they're like raw ring, They're like, please use nuclear

132
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: arms against Gaza so we can defeat.

133
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 2: Like they're really trying to this whole Christian Zionism. They're

134
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 2: they're they're trying to they're trying to bring the rapture.

135
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: I know. That's what's so wild, is like they're like,

136
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: it's so hard for the rapture and yeah, and then

137
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 2: no one will just say it, no one will just

138
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 2: say out loud. It's like, yeah, we're like, look, we

139
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 2: need to set certain things in motion so that Jesus

140
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 2: can come back, so Jesus could come back.

141
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: Or it's like the leftovers, we'll see one of the two,

142
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: just one of the two his wrinkle, piles of clothes everywhere. Yeah,

143
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: but yeah, let's take a quick break. We'll be right

144
00:07:51,000 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: back with some more stories after this, and we're thank you.

145
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: Hey man, what I tell you about that? Bro, don't

146
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: sun me on the on the show and it makes

147
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: me look bad when I'm sorry. All right, edit this

148
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: part in and we are back authoritatively. Nothing happened before

149
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: what you just heard.

150
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 2: Please edit that out. Let's see.

151
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: Oh, the American Flag Act is trending because just past

152
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: the All American Flag Act Serious business, basically a new

153
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: rule that will ensure that all US flags be completely

154
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 1: manufactured domestically. Senator Susan Collins claimed that this will quote

155
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: honor the flags significance while also supporting American jobs.

156
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 2: Versions of this hill Susan, what is the flag significance?

157
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:57,199
Speaker 1: Okay, America, and we love America, don't we.

158
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: I just want to kiss the flag, don't you. That's

159
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 2: I think that's what it means. It's not the American

160
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 2: people sjuggling, but hey, where do we get the cheap flag?

161
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: So this is something that has been happening since like

162
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 1: two thousand and three where people are like that it's

163
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 1: an outrage that our flags are not being made in

164
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: the United States, and like, there have been proposals going

165
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: back to the eighties. There was the American Flag Fidelity

166
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: Act that was banning the imports of foreign made American flags.

167
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: In twenty eleven, it was reported that ninety four percent

168
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: of flags imported into the United States came from China.

169
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 1: Oh and the jingoistic paranoia around China made flags, I think,

170
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: as people expect, is stupid because while the vast majority

171
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: of flags imported into the US are from China, there's

172
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,439
Speaker 1: still a small fraction of the flags that are actually

173
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: sold overall. And the you know, quote unquote typical American

174
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: flag that is coming from China or like the little

175
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: plastic ones that people wave at like parades and shit

176
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: like that, not the ones that they use for are

177
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: very important ceremonies and football games.

178
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, those are made in Bangladesh.

179
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: Right, So yeah, it's not really I mean, I guess

180
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: a problem aside from you know, saying like this, this

181
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 1: is about America and patriotism, so the flags should be

182
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,079
Speaker 1: made in America. It's like Republicans are really passionate about this,

183
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 1: but it's also the Republicans who are responsible for this

184
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:25,959
Speaker 1: issue in the first place.

185
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 2: So, like one of the things that led to this.

186
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 1: So you know, when Trump had all these tariffs on

187
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: Chinese goods, for some reason, he didn't include American flags

188
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: on the list of Chinese imports that would be affected.

189
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 2: Especially Yeah, yeah, he's just like.

190
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's like, uh, you know, maybe stuff with

191
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: anchovy products, stuff with zinc in it. What about the

192
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: American fan, I don't worry about that. Don'try about that.

193
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: Don'try about that. And back in the eighties, the House

194
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: and Senate passed a bill to protect the domestic textile industry,

195
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: with foreign made flags being like a big talking point

196
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 1: at the time. But Reagan vet told it because he

197
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 1: said it was you know, he's I'm acting in the

198
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: best interest of consumers and workers. So that is why

199
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,199
Speaker 1: the boy nixed that bill.

200
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 2: And here we are. It's about free trade, baby.

201
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's always funny to me when like people

202
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: talk about like it's made in America, like in wearing

203
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: like these maidens. Like this is something that was pointed out,

204
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: like of especially like Maga hats too, that it's all

205
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: about making America great again. But they're seldom made in America.

206
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, all those political slogan t shirts that you see

207
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 2: in uh, let's be real, most parts of America. Yeah, yeah,

208
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 2: they're all they're all made in China. They're all drop chipped. Yeah.

209
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 2: And you know, most of those people who like do

210
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 2: those things, it's like they're playing both sides. They make

211
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 2: anti Trump and anti Biden shirts. Right, so everybody, oh yeah, yeah,

212
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 2: they know how to sell baby, they know how to

213
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 2: sell those phrase t shirts. But yeah, I've seen a lot.

214
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 2: It's weird that it's like, it's a funny issue to

215
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 2: me because one of the things that you could take

216
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 2: pride in in your country is like your industries. Yeah,

217
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 2: but all of ours have been yeah, bounced on out,

218
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 2: sent away, right, And yeah, it's just like that that's

219
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 2: like a huge potential point of actual pride, because pride

220
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 2: is it's it's a sense of you know, accomplishment. Yeah,

221
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 2: something to be proud of. Yeah, yeah, merely being born

222
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 2: somewhere is not something to be proud of, right, you

223
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 2: had no choice in the matter, but yeah.

224
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: Well you know this is I guess the boomerang of capitalism.

225
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: You know, it's cheaper to have stuff made elsewhere, so

226
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: we'll do that. Oops, now, were mad the flags aren't

227
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,839
Speaker 1: made here? And but hey, but you know, the people

228
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: who owned the businesses have made a lot of money,

229
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: so maybe it doesn't matter to them.

230
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 2: It's such a prevalent things like I don't want any

231
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 2: I remember I was looking up a slide whistle because

232
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 2: I think I think they're funny. I've always just wanted

233
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 2: to carry a slide whistle, but I don't have that

234
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 2: kind of rihiz. That's and that's that's next level. That's

235
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 2: like final boss level. People people were straight up like

236
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 2: where was this made? I don't want anything made in China?

237
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 2: In my mouth? Like I'm just like, holy shit, wow,

238
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 2: that's very specific. It's very specific, Like what, yeah, what

239
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 2: is do you think? I'm sorry, sir, you're probably typing.

240
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: There's on a fucking iPhone, right, Yeah, nothing made here? Yeah,

241
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 2: there was nothing to take pride in.

242
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: That's the irony of our education and most people's awareness

243
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: of what is happening here. That yeah, that you could

244
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: be like everything, everything's probably made here. Wait no it isn't.

245
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 1: Oh huh huh. Didn't think of that. And then just

246
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: to I've gotta circle back on the gift that keeps

247
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: on giving.

248
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 2: Does J d Vance have sex with couches? And what

249
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 2: kind of couch?

250
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: And is he weird? This is currently taking up so

251
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 1: much of the oxygen on the right. It's baffling how

252
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 1: the defense is against being weird or jd Vance does

253
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: in fact not do sex. Stuff with upholstered items is

254
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 1: a huge talking point. Jesse Waters yesterday had a real

255
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: hard time dealing with this. It's just wild to hear

256
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 1: like these pundits like dignify what was just a joke

257
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: tweet that's not real but has captured the minds of

258
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: people on the internet, and how they have to push

259
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: back against it. So this is Jesse Waters. Just here's

260
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: Jesse Waters having to talk about it on his show.

261
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: They're accusing jd Vance of having sex with a couch.

262
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 2: Yo. You know, like tangentially reminds me of of Like

263
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 2: it kind of reminds me of I guess the philosophy

264
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 2: of a rap beef since we just had such such

265
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 2: a big rap beef. Like it's like the Drake situation.

266
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 2: All it has to be is believable. Yeah, it doesn't

267
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 2: have to be true true, but all people have to

268
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 2: do is like believe that you're weird or something's off

269
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 2: and it will just stick. Yeah, the brand Isa, you

270
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 2: can't get it off of you. Yeah, true, it's there's

271
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 2: no there's no way to rebut someone calling you a weirdo,

272
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 2: what do you think There's nothing you can say? Yeah,

273
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 2: and just going.

274
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: No like they are. It's again, it's it's so true.

275
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: The economy of language there is is is mind blowing. Anyway,

276
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: I'll let Jesse Waters continue is is upset monologue.

277
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 2: Not on account with the count. It's a weird thing

278
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 2: to do. That's a weird thing. They're calling him weird.

279
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: I don't think Kamala Harris is going to pick anyone

280
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: as weird and creepy as Jade Vance.

281
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 2: Frankly, jd Vance just dumb Vance is pretty weird. It's

282
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 2: not just a weird style that he brings. It's that

283
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 2: this leads to weird policies. They're just weird. Donald Trump

284
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 2: and is Weirdo running made We're extreme, more weird, more erradical.

285
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 2: The agenda, the way they talk to people, the way

286
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 2: they address people, it is bizarre. It's weird.

287
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 1: It is weird.

288
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 2: Well, it's just plain weird.

289
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: Democrats made up a story about jd Vance having sex

290
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: with a cow and called them weird one hundred and fifty.

291
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 2: Times this weekend. Wow, they got the weird counter.

292
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this is called and well did you inherit

293
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: this apartment because you are living rent free?

294
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 2: What is going on here? What is going on? They? Yeah?

295
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: And it's also interesting to see how like they're also

296
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 1: saying that it's from that is the reason, like it's

297
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: the couch thing that makes it weird. And rather than

298
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: summing up all of their like hateful rhetoric, all of

299
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,439
Speaker 1: their regressive worldviews, their hateful world views and merely just

300
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 1: branding that as weird, to say, like that is actually

301
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 1: not the norm for people, that is not the normal

302
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: way to view a person who's in the LGBTQ community,

303
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: or an immigrant or a woman of color or women

304
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: is just weird. And that has been a huge thing

305
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 1: because a lot of it for the longest time, you know,

306
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,199
Speaker 1: Republicans wanted to say, like we're the ones who are

307
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: upholding what is normal. This other shit that's going on,

308
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: that's the weird stuff. That's We're not weird, they're weird,

309
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: and to be painted with this brush is wow uh

310
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: completely causing much cock nittive discomfort for them.

311
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 2: So Jesse, Meanwhile, the rest of the world is like

312
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 2: America is fucking weird. I know, they're like, yo, what

313
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 2: the whole country all of y'all are weird?

314
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,359
Speaker 1: They could stop wars over there, and they're talking about

315
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 1: a dude having sex with.

316
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 2: A couch, Like, are these people for fucking real.

317
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: Sorry on serious country. Sorry, this is an unseerious place.

318
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 1: And for everybody who I mean so much is resting

319
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: on this election, then this is where the discourse is.

320
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:31,199
Speaker 2: That's just where we're at.

321
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 1: This is America, and these are the vibrations or the vibes.

322
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 2: I do have to say, I attempted watching somebody that

323
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 2: work was talking about Veep recently and I was like, oh, yeah,

324
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 2: I never watched that show. Let me check it out.

325
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 2: And man, political satire does not hold a fucking candle

326
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 2: to real life. Real life is so much funnier, right,

327
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 2: It's so much funnier. And it's just like I'm like, wow,

328
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 2: this is this is well written, this is it's a

329
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 2: good show. But watching Trump try and give a speech

330
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 2: is ten times funnier. Yeah, And that's truly, it's disturbing

331
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,679
Speaker 2: and hilarious. Truly.

332
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 1: Oh man, Well, they continue to struggle with it, maybe

333
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 1: because like you're painful, rhetoric and stuff like that is

334
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: off putting to a lot of people. You don't want

335
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,440
Speaker 1: to These are not the people that you want to

336
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 1: lead the country. And again, Democrats have found a way

337
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 1: to just do the thing where they label the right

338
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: and it's like not, it's still really not about I mean,

339
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: it partially is about policy, but rather than being like, damn,

340
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: they're weird, huh, like the their the favorite movies, like

341
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 1: well what about over there? They're right used to be

342
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: like they're scary, they're fascists, now like pretty weird huh.

343
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 2: And Ite's like, yep.

344
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: It's wild how much this is taking up our discussion

345
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,400
Speaker 1: about the election. And I don't think it's it's going

346
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: to end because there are like on Twitter, dude, there's

347
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 1: so many people trying to like figure out like what

348
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 1: someone said. It's some dude tweeted weird is the n

349
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: word for independent thinkers.

350
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 2: And you're like, yoh, why do white folks have such

351
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 2: a like an oppression boner, Like I mean, because he's

352
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 2: literally vying for at least like damn it, we need

353
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 2: it slur.

354
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,439
Speaker 1: No, truly, because I think if you're contending with the

355
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: history of the United States, that has always been the

356
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: oppressive group, uh, the oppressors, and what's embrace.

357
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 2: That that there's never been like a like a slur

358
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 2: for white people that really hits. Yeah, there's never been one. Yeah,

359
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 2: it's hard, but they still pretend that like oh, this

360
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 2: or that. It's like yeah, they're like, really, that's all

361
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 2: we got. Yeah, I mean I think that's why they point. Well,

362
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 2: it's uh, I don't know.

363
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: I wish there were I think just merely calling Republicans

364
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: weird at the moment is I think the closest I've

365
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 1: seen to something like that. But anyway, that's twenty twenty

366
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: four America, and here we are November. Take your time,
