So Gabrielle Union's incredible, 79 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: Jessica Simpson, I think it's out there that it's incredible. 80 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: It's really great Demi Moore probably one of my favorites, 81 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 1: if not my far And it was reading that producer 82 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: on as that was a uh that was an event 83 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: for our workplace. When she was reading that, we had 84 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: a new harrowing stories every day. The most secondhand book 85 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: club experience I've ever had was when Anna was reading 86 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: that book where she's like, oh my god, so y'all 87 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: fucking drinking problem? Like what who are we talking about 88 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,239 Speaker 1: right now? I'm sorry to me more of the book. 89 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: I caught some real secondhand uh hate for Ashton Kutcher 90 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: off of Anna's reading experience of that book. Oh yeah, 91 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: based on his really futuristic ideas of how alcoholism worked. Yeah. 92 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: Speaking of celebrity memoirs that superproducer on Hosny has gotten 93 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 1: us up on. She is reading or just finished reading 94 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: the Mariah Carry One? Are you in on that one? 95 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: Oh you guys, please please? There was one to ever 96 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: cop immediately. It's the Mariah Carry One. Not only did 97 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: I copy immediately, I forgot I pre ordered it twice 98 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: this morning? Was put on? Really that for sure? Put 99 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: on a mask, risked the pandemic. Went to Barnes and 100 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: Noble was like, do you have them Maria harry Memoir, 101 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: Are there any copies left? And they read it on 102 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: the floor. Grader reading the latest Harry Potter book just 103 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 1: read it right there on the floor, right there in 104 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: the floor of Barnes and yeah, I I. And then 105 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: you know the audio book Not to Be slept On. 106 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: It's one of the best, with her narrating book, yeah, narrating, singing, 107 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 1: doing impressions of her mother. I've only read maybe one 108 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: celebrity biography because Miles Davis is because that one is 109 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: wild and my namesake. So I figured I'll owe it 110 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: to Miles Davis to read about that, which is very entertaining. 111 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 1: But I think the next one I'll probably dabble in 112 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: is like one of the managers of Arsenal has one 113 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: where he's narrating it and I missed his voice, So like, 114 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: tell me about your life, Arson, please. I love that. 115 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: Here's the thing, though I like autobiographies. It don't like biographies. 116 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear it from someone else's point 117 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: of view. I want you to tell me what was 118 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: going on in your head, Yeah, from your unbiased perspective 119 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: of how you're like, Yeah, what, Jake, is something you 120 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: think is underrated. I was thinking about this actually, and 121 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: this is kind of a bit of an abstract one, 122 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: but I think it's underrated going on websites to aren't 123 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: social media. Like I was talking to someone the other 124 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: day and I was like, you know, I mentioning, and 125 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: they're like, why do you even have a website? Like 126 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: what's the point anymore? I was like, what, Like, there's 127 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: so many you know, there's so many cool websites still 128 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: out there, but all anybody does is just go on 129 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: social media. Now, Um, so I think that's definitely underrated, 130 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: Like you can find some cool message boards and stuff. 131 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: I I you know, I grew up on the internet, man, 132 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: and I hate the way social media is just ring 133 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: fenced it all into this like argument, but yeah, underrated 134 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: going on other websites that aren't social media. Yeah, what 135 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: kind of websites are you trafficking? Like? What time? What 136 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: are you heading to it? After social media? Um? Horn 137 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: herb No, I'm joking now, like all sorts of stuff. 138 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: Like I was reading a message board the other day 139 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: about Baufing radios and ham radio and stuff like that, 140 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: and it's really nerdy, but I was just looking at 141 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: it and it was so cool to just see them 142 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: in their own little community, completely detached from anyone else, 143 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,119 Speaker 1: like there's no one chirping in and like real fucking 144 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: nerds or like vote now or whatever.

I was like, 173 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: Twitter is not the place to ask anything, man, Nah, 174 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: absolutely not. I thought one of the best metaphors of 175 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: the of that show, that movie, The Social Dilemma, was 176 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: them talking about um how like imagine if when you 177 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: went to Wikipedia, like the page just changed depending on 178 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: what they thought you wanted to read. Like that's and 179 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: that's what your social media reality is, and that's all 180 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: anybody uses anymore. Like that's that's right. There are times 181 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: when I was like I thought I used to be 182 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: more into like street cars, and I'm like, that's just 183 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: because at a moment I was scrolling a bunch of it, 184 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: and it kept giving giving me like this information. It's 185 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: weird how I found, like after watching the Social Dilemma, 186 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: trying to realize how much it was informing like what 187 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: I was getting interested in, like even very passively. Not 188 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: that it was like I was getting you know, radical 189 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: lives on the internet, but I was like, oh, I'm 190 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 1: more into like, you know, Nissan Skyline, GTR picks or 191 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: things like that. And then suddenly and now it's like, oh, 192 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: do you like like fantastic throw blankets because I'm I 193 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: was like cold in my house and a little blanket. 194 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: But I'm like, what happened to my Skyline content? Don't? Yeah, freaky, 195 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: it's freaky. Your taste in Nissans has always been a 196 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 1: little radical. Well you know that's the thing, you know 197 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: because in the Japan the Skyline people don't know this. 198 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 1: They don't have them ships in the US, they don't 199 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: know the beauty about that car. The old Japanese ones, 200 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 1: I love them, you know, like the old Japanese right 201 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: hand books ones. Yeah, yeah, And I'm like, fun, that's horrible. 202 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 1: I see one of them old school nineties books and 203 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: nissans love it. Yeah, with you on those tails, the 204 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: circular tail lies baby who matmobile on a budget? Definitely? 205 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: What is something you think is underrated? Okay, look my underrated, 206 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: overrated or basically not one of the same. There's two 207 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: sides of the same coin. I don't know what the 208 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: expression to use. But texting and calling, Okay, I think 209 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: hauling is underrated. Calling your homies is underrated, and texting 210 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: is fine because I do it all the time that 211 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: I also call all my friends. But I hate, I hate, 212 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 1: I hate people that are just like especially on Twitter. 213 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: You see it all the time.

I love talking on the phone. 225 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: My friends all know. My close friends know that I 226 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: just love. I'll call them all the time. Not all 227 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: the time, but frequently. Time flies on a phone call. 228 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's so fun. It's like it's time traveling. 229 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: One of my boys called me over the weekend. Uh, 230 00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: and I was like, next thing, you know. He's like, damn, 231 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: We're just talking for fifty minutes.

And I think also 239 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: because of social media, people think that they're seeing their friends, 240 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: you know, like, oh, yeah, I've seen you haven't talked 241 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: to this person so long. You need to call each other. 242 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: Hearing each other the voices is so nice. That's also 243 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: White people like listening to podcasts. It's like they're hearing 244 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: their friends talk right right to the listener right now. 245 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: Especially you, Uh, we are talking to you and you 246 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: Rebecca the uh.

Um, I I have to just say, because 251 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: they're maybe listeners who are like me, or maybe I'm 252 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: uniquely fucked, but I time for me, when I'm on 253 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 1: a phone call goes actually much slower, and I don't 254 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: know why.

Um underrated. I think um 349 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: The Bachelor and Bachelorette as a cultural clock on America. 350 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: I think I think we could predict elections off of 351 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 1: this franchise. I think watching The Bachelor should replace Nate 352 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: Silver Um. I think it is a more accurate look 353 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: at what's going on in our country, and it doesn't 354 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 1: get enough attention for for the work it's doing. So 355 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: what if we tell us what you've learned? Did the 356 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: Did the Bachelor Bachelor At predict the election? To me? Yes? 357 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,959 Speaker 1: Because I was watching it and I was like, okay, 358 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: so The Bachelors is one of the number one shows 359 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: in America and sort of the way when Trump was elected, 360 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: they were like fifty of white women did what? Like 361 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: they did what? And if you'd been watching The Bachelor, 362 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: you'd be like, yes, of course they voted for Trump. 363 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 1: You've not made attention to them. Um, And so you know, 364 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: in that year, it was Caitlin Bristow was the Bachelor 365 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: at right before the election, and this was a season 366 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: where it was you know, when the woman is picking 367 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 1: the men, she's in the position of power. And that 368 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: season they brought in another woman and made the men 369 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: vote on which woman they wanted to pick them, so 370 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: immediately it was like we still shipped on women. And 371 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: then her season was all about she like has sex 372 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: with one of the dudes early on and again and 373 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: they were like tripping right, and she's like, y'all the 374 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: funk who I want to?

I'll just say that right there. I'm about 428 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: to talk about these experts who have been predicting that 429 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: was like when we would dissolve into civil war basically 430 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 1: since but they've been saying that the civil war will 431 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 1: be fought with crank radios. Yeah, just arm yourself with 432 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: crank radios.

And these 436 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: people are definitely on the in the minority who think 437 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 1: that we're definitely headed for a civil war. One thing 438 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 1: that makes it kind of eerie is that they've been 439 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: saying around America is going to be really poised for 440 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 1: a civil wars for ten years. That's like long before 441 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:03,360 Speaker 1: Trump was even on the scene. And yeah, they've basically 442 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: been saying that inequality is the is the thing that's 443 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: going to drive America to some sort of like violent conflict. 444 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: That one of the two experts is in nine four, 445 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 1: the U.

We have Netflix shows 496 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: with really strong female leads and they couldn't really yes, 497 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: spiritually it's going to be Yeah, well I mean there's 498 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: also the uptick and like gun registrations has been coming 499 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: from the left both sides. Yeah, but especially like they'll 500 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 1: exponentially people in the left or was like I don't know, 501 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: like I guess I need to be able to clap 502 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: somebody if it goes down. Um, but like it's definitely, um, 503 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: the tension is there. I don't know if it's going 504 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: to be like door to door neighbor versus neighbor or 505 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: more like these things where you see these groups like 506 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: Patriot Front who like their chat logs just came like 507 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: BuzzFeed released some of their chat logs or they're talking 508 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: about like we have to prepare for violence, uh, no 509 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: matter who wins, and like they're they're groups like that 510 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: that are organized who aren't even aligned with the left 511 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: or the right. They're purely there for like the establishment 512 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: of or just re establishing the United States as an 513 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: ethno state. Um. And why are they going to just 514 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: fight against local governments? Is it like that what we're 515 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: seeing with Gretchen Whittmer where people are going to just 516 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 1: go after very specifically politically It's who knows. But yeah, 517 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: like the sheriff, there was a local sheriff who was 518 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: on board with the Gretchen Whitmer thing, and like that 519 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: that's the thing. I think that the degree to which 520 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: the police are ready to enact violence, not just on 521 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: people who are protesting, but just ready to do it 522 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,719 Speaker 1: because they feel like they're being attacked, is someone underrated. 523 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: But the BuzzFeed article about these two experts does end 524 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: on sort of a hopeful note because they said that 525 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,719 Speaker 1: America was going through a very similar thing in the 526 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: twenties into the thirties, as like a lot of Europe 527 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 1: was sliding into fascism, the US was flirting with fascism. 528 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: A lot of like Hitler's ideas came from the US. 529 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: But then the US elected FDR, and you know, he 530 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: was able to enact like kind of socialist policies that 531 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: I I do think, like what to your point, Miles, 532 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: like that if everybody just understands, oh, it's like the 533 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 1: inequality is what's causing all of this, and inequality can 534 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: be addressed, then I think we're back on the right path. 535 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: But this means believing Biden is our new FDR, or 536 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: at least he he can hold things off until the 537 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: new FDR comes along, or or really it's about putting 538 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 1: pressure on him constantly if he's elected, so he can 539 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: cave to the progressive wing because the progressives are more 540 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: mobilized to try and get out there there, you know, 541 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: like like limousine. Liberal class people are not hitting the 542 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: streets because their needs are fully met. But there are 543 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 1: so many people who are realizing what the stakes are 544 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: in this country and what the pathway there, which is refreshing. 545 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: But yeah, it all depends on if you know, it's 546 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: just about these competing explanations for your disenfranchisement or your 547 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: lack of opportunity. And I think some people who are 548 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: progressive can see that there's a very the way this 549 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: country is set up is meant to benefit a very 550 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: small number of people while having the rest suffer. And 551 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people on the right are 552 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: sort of disconnected from that reality. They just see suffering 553 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: or lack of opportunity without wanting to explore it much 554 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: further and just say, voice, I trust, what's the explanation. 555 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: And it seems like even now, like those explanations are 556 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: they're like wearing thin a bit, you know, like they're 557 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: not they're not as captivating as ship used to be 558 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: when you can be like it's the damn immigrants, Like 559 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: that's kind of like dwindling to like that's not as 560 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 1: like oh right, because you can even tell like when 561 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: Trump even says that he's even tired of being like 562 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: and you know, these people come here and they don't 563 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 1: pay taxes and uh so they're a drain what else 564 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: spidering like right, yeah, because I think like racism can 565 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 1: only explain ship to a certain point, like where you know, 566 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: because racism isn't like a logical thing, like it can't 567 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 1: it's hard to really explain. Yeah, it's like how do 568 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: I make that jump though? It's like a Disney character, 569 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: It's like we're okay, oh yes, my racist, I'll open 570 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: my racist heart to the possibility that this nonsensical explanation 571 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: is how I will better in my life. But yeah, 572 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: when people's needs are met, they're less likely to look 573 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: around in anger at people around them. I think that's 574 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 1: the bottom line to your point about like the thing 575 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: that can save people is have people's needs met. If 576 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: you are not starving, you're less likely to be trying 577 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 1: to figure out a solution to that that could end 578 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: in violence. Or if you need employment, or other opportunities 579 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: for upward mobility. Um, so yeah, who knows, maybe we'll 580 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: see you. You just gotta wait for Alec. Don't forget 581 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: what's his name, Robinette Joe Robinette Biden, Yeah, j RB. 582 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: Don't watch The Carry Washington Anita Hill movie, or your 583 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 1: belief in Biden goes down. Yeo, I mean I think 584 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: most people who Yeah, you can also just read the 585 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: real history, but you could also watch the Carry Washington 586 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: and need a Hill movie about it and it'll go 587 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 1: down a little easier, right. Uh, But to that point, 588 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 1: FDR was also a racists like socialite, so um, you 589 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: know people can still enact internment caps policies, policies. Yeah, 590 00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: that's America, you know what I mean, and spurs. We're 591 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: seeing it, and yet we're still like, yeah, man, this 592 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: thing could work, I think so I wh Yes, there's 593 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,760 Speaker 1: articles uh from like I just having to come across 594 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: this like Irish article from like the Irish Times or 595 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: what one of their newspapers where they're like everybody's worried 596 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 1: about this election. They're just like, yo, what is to 597 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 1: these fuckers? Like they who? Because yeah, suddenly you found 598 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 1: out the nicest house on the block was had a 599 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,760 Speaker 1: bunch of all racist hoarders living inside, and the garbage 600 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: is spilling out into the neighborhood, and you're like, what 601 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: the funk? I thought that house had all their ship 602 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: they were the ones going around calling people out on 603 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 1: their ship. Look at all this bullshit spilling out the 604 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: front door. They don't even know how to Oh my god. 605 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: And then I think a lot of people are like, 606 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: holy sh it, we believe that bullshit too. To a 607 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,799 Speaker 1: certain extent, I feel like it has to feel so good, 608 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: like it's it's like going if you went into the 609 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: Kardashian house and it was just full of rotting garbage, 610 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 1: you'd be like, tight, I'm so happy about that. That's 611 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: that's what's everyone's experiencing now. Yeah, it's that Michael Jackson 612 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: eating popcorn gift over and over again. Just yeah, from 613 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:17,920 Speaker 1: around the world, or I'm just I'm sure at a 614 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: certain level it folks with your whole like worldview, Like 615 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 1: if you were buying into like the media propaganda that 616 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 1: was being pumped out of the US for decades that 617 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: you're like, dude, America is like this dope ass place, man, 618 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: where it's all good and to a certain extent. I mean, 619 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 1: depending on who you are in this country, you have 620 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: been experiencing some semblance of a civil war with a 621 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:40,320 Speaker 1: constant assault on your existence. So it's that's why I like, 622 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: when I look at this, I'm like, honestly, though there 623 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: are people out here who really are this, I don't 624 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,800 Speaker 1: know how much worse it could get. I guess the 625 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 1: difference being some stranger is shooting them in the street 626 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: or something. But for all intents and purposes, they have 627 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: no support from you know, the municipalities, from the communities 628 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: and things like that, from the fucking law enforcement, whatever 629 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: you wanna call it. So it's all. It all depends 630 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,359 Speaker 1: on how you're looking at it. It's like when people 631 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: say they're like, who's to say that? Like, if you 632 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 1: say there's no hell, who's to say that this isn't hell? 633 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: Right now? Yeah? That is my favorite Instagram quote. Yeah, 634 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: do that cursive but with that lovely cursive fun on 635 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: like fake parchment core, Who's to say this isn't Who's 636 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: to say this isn't hell? Live laugh, scream, just like 637 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: live laugh, civil war, live laugh. Register for a gun, 638 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:35,360 Speaker 1: even if you're a Democrat. The New York Times recently 639 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 1: reported on a story that we've been checking in with. 640 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: I thought I had my mind made years now, for years, 641 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: literally years. We're three years into this motherfucker. Um. So, 642 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 1: when the Trump administration first started, there were accounts of 643 00:36:55,800 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: CIA agents and diplomats working in Cuba getting attacked by 644 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 1: these like sound weapons. They would like get out of bed, 645 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 1: suddenly a beam of sound would hit them and they 646 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:17,760 Speaker 1: would have concussions concussion like symptoms, and it was wild story. 647 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: People were like, they're using like sci fi weapons on Americans. 648 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: But then like as it went on, like the symptoms 649 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 1: were so vague and they all overlapped with like symptoms 650 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 1: of aging. It was like my hearing is worse and 651 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: my balance is worse, and it just had a lot 652 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: of the hallmarks of mass hysteria. The other reason that 653 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 1: it had the hallmarks of mass hysteria is the broader 654 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 1: context was the Trump administration wanted to pull people out 655 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 1: of Cuba because they wanted to just withdraw and do 656 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 1: away with all the all the progress that the Obama 657 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: administration had made in Cuba. So there's new information that 658 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: is putting a shred of doubt into my thinking on that. 659 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: That is what what was happening, because they're saying that 660 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: there have been these attacks throughout the world, including in Russia, 661 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: UM and in China. And I knew that there had 662 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 1: been some in China around the same time. I thought 663 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,919 Speaker 1: it was all part of like a similar Like once 664 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: they heard what was happening in Cuba, they were like, oh, ship, 665 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 1: maybe the same thing is happening to me get in 666 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: on this. Yeah, but there's also people who were attacked 667 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 1: in Russia. Uh, like they got out of bed in 668 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 1: their hotel and suddenly like they had a concussion, even 669 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: though nothing had happened to them. So now these c 670 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: I agents who were attacked or like pointing out that 671 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: there is a pretty clear theory that you could come 672 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 1: to that this is all Russia, that Russia is doing 673 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 1: it in Cuba because they don't want American Cuban relations 674 00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: to improve. Uh. They did it to see I agents 675 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 1: who were undercover in Russia. Um, they did it to 676 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 1: people in China because they don't want American Chinese relations 677 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 1: get to go well. And the Trump administration is actually 678 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 1: ignoring it everywhere that's not Cuba, because the Trump administration, 679 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: you know, like just does not want to have have 680 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 1: negative interactions with Russia with regards to any any mistreating 681 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: of American you know, it would be of a piece 682 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 1: with um, you know, the Trump administration ignoring the fact 683 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 1: that Vladimir Putin and Russia was putting bounties out on 684 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 1: them on US soldiers. So you're saying you're moving from 685 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: the mass hysteria column because before you were firmly I 686 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: believe that, Like when this story first came out, I 687 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: remember you bringing up a lot of other sort of 688 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: mass hysteria things that had gone on where people were 689 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,719 Speaker 1: all believing something was going on. And now you are 690 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 1: at She's being like, all right, maybe it's microwave weapons. 691 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: Maybe it's microwave weapons from Russia. I don't know. I mean, 692 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: I'm I've always said I'm I'm open to like being 693 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,360 Speaker 1: convinced either way. I think it's it's just a super 694 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 1: interesting mystery. I think the way that the human mind 695 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: can create these mass hyster areas that are in fact 696 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:28,240 Speaker 1: like become physical is really fascinating. That's a super interesting subject. 697 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 1: It happens all the time. It's more common and more devastating, 698 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: more powerful than anybody than people usually give it credit for. 699 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: But I also think that there's now, you know, context 700 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:46,279 Speaker 1: that makes it possible that you know, the reason we 701 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 1: only had the Cuba like details on the Cuba thing 702 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 1: was because the Trump administration is covering for Russia to 703 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: try and you know, keep things quiet because Trump is 704 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,320 Speaker 1: homies with Putin. I had not heard of this. This 705 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:08,759 Speaker 1: is very interesting. Microwave weapons. Wow, super interesting. I'm just 706 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: going from pretty firmly in the this is hysteria camp 707 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 1: to having one foot that like, I'd be perfectly willing 708 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 1: to believe that it's hysteria and one foot in the uh. 709 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: It would also make sense to me if Trump was 710 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 1: covering up for a bunch of Russian attacks, because that 711 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 1: just seems to be what he does. I mean, yeah, 712 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 1: he was willing to ignore you know, bounties, one straight 713 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: up bounties on US troops. How does that? That's another Like, 714 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:42,600 Speaker 1: the more distance I have from the final debate, the 715 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: more I'm like, there's so many things that they could 716 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 1: have brought up that I was just thinking, Like he 717 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: didn't bring up the bounties. He didn't bring up he didn't. Yeah, 718 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:58,399 Speaker 1: like they just democrats just get themselves, like they triangulate 719 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 1: themselves into a corner. Where they just like think that 720 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 1: they have to be you know, delicate and balanced and 721 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: um careful about their wording, and it's like, no, just 722 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,400 Speaker 1: say the thing you think. And I think if Biden 723 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 1: had brought up market wave weapons and a debate, I 724 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 1: think everybody would be like paying attention all those undecided 725 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 1: like what what do my mind? So, yeah, this lost 726 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: opportunity right there. Yeah, I wonder if it's just like, yeah, 727 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: that's all time wasted on fracking. And it's like so 728 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 1: funny how they there's all this concern about there's no 729 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:40,840 Speaker 1: middle class and da da, and yet you you know, mathematically, 730 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 1: if you started talking about things like minimum wage or 731 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 1: the working class, you're immediately going from a topic that 732 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 1: maybe only effects like the people directly involved with fracking 733 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania two millions of Americans across the entire country. 734 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 1: Because then you're like, oh, I don't know what the 735 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 1: fun fracking is, but you start maybe we can talk 736 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 1: a little bit more about this minimum wage and how 737 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 1: even fifteen dollars isn't actually a living wage either, and 738 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:07,800 Speaker 1: maybe we could talk a little bit more about that, 739 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 1: because I don't think there's any person unless you're such 740 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,960 Speaker 1: a craven racist, which means you're like a Trump supporter 741 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:15,839 Speaker 1: where you're gonna be like, I don't want to hear 742 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 1: about how minimum wage should be more money so people 743 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 1: could actually like raise a family on that. I don't 744 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 1: want to hear about, Like what the what? Yeah, I 745 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 1: remember when my my mom would say, like in the seventies, 746 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:27,800 Speaker 1: they would have my she and my dad would have 747 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 1: like these random jobs like minimum wage, but like you 748 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 1: can they pay their apartment, they got groceries, they were 749 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 1: able to, you know, have a family, like all those 750 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 1: things that minimum wage used to do. And now it's 751 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 1: it's nothing. You can't sustain life. So I don't I 752 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: don't know why you like people just seem to forget 753 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 1: what that used to bring. Uh you know what that 754 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:52,320 Speaker 1: used to mean for a family, right, it would seem 755 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 1: like being the party that cares about people and that 756 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:03,320 Speaker 1: once uh the once the majority of people to have 757 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 1: a have a living wage, like all the people who 758 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: are being left behind like that, they would be the 759 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 1: party that wouldn't have to carefully choose every word and 760 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 1: like use political speak. But the Democrats that feel like 761 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: can't get out of their own way a lot of 762 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 1: the time, I mean, forty two percent of Americans make 763 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 1: under fifteen fifteen dollars an hour, So just what you 764 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,919 Speaker 1: could you go from a wedge issue niche niche wedge issue, 765 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 1: you're talking about fracking, and you start talking about minimum 766 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,760 Speaker 1: wage a little bit more, talking about hey, people understand 767 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 1: the pandemics hard. I understand you might have a child. 768 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 1: You know, actually you should probably be making at least 769 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 1: twenty five dollars an hour if you are a single 770 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 1: parent trying to survive in a metropolitan area. But you know, 771 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 1: it's it's all this whatever. I mean, I think that's 772 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 1: I think that's because both parties are just so ill 773 00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:58,920 Speaker 1: equipped to begin talking about those issues because they all 774 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,840 Speaker 1: all those roads ed back to the donor class that 775 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,320 Speaker 1: actually need to be taxed more uh and need to 776 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:07,560 Speaker 1: be earning like making less profit. So it's just always about, 777 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 1: you know, let's talk about minimum wage and then we'll 778 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: just leave it there and then have arguments over like 779 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,839 Speaker 1: what's what what a relative living wages based on where 780 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 1: you live in the country, rather than like addressing the 781 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 1: need of Americans to be able to live in a 782 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 1: way that their labor is uh compensated in a in 783 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:31,880 Speaker 1: a you know, proportional manner, proportionate manner. Yeah, right, Like 784 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:36,319 Speaker 1: they haven't raised the minimum wage in eleven years. That's 785 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 1: never happened since it was first established. Congress has never 786 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: let it go and change for so long. Like, how 787 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 1: how do you not just like be like, yeah, the 788 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,640 Speaker 1: this is this is the problem. We will change. This 789 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:56,759 Speaker 1: guy hasn't and refuses to and is just focused on 790 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,399 Speaker 1: the stock market. All right, let's take a quick break. 791 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back, and let's do 792 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,399 Speaker 1: a little brain bleach news before we get back into 793 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 1: some election bullshit. Quick breath of fresh air. Mind is 794 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:25,360 Speaker 1: giving away tomato blood ketchup via TikTok. That's a headline 795 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 1: on the tap that's also a sentence that's definitely never 796 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,439 Speaker 1: been said before. That's I mean, like, that's the most 797 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:35,880 Speaker 1: twenty headline that is not a doom based headline, you 798 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,560 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like normally you're like, like, is 799 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: your vote transforming into a wuhan bat and biting your 800 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,479 Speaker 1: elderly relatives? I would also be like, guess that sounds 801 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:49,239 Speaker 1: like headline, but this the idea of yes, pretty self explanatory. 802 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:55,160 Speaker 1: Hines rebranding Ketchup as tomato blood and using TikTok to 803 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 1: get the buying of gen Z, and I was just 804 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:00,759 Speaker 1: I mean the bottle. Look, I'm not gonna lie. The 805 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 1: bottle looks cool. I actually prefer the tomato blood aesthetic 806 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: than our typical catchup thing. But they're not like thinning 807 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 1: the catchup or anything. It's actual blood consistency. I would imagine, Well, 808 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 1: I would have to check that out as opposed to 809 00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:21,760 Speaker 1: just being a label like who knows could you handle 810 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,400 Speaker 1: if it was less viscous but had the same flavor, 811 00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:29,800 Speaker 1: if it was the consistency of like Cholula. Yeah, Chula 812 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 1: is kind of a viscous but not quite like thick, 813 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,279 Speaker 1: you know, putting thick as catchup is yeah, I don't 814 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 1: know what. The one thing I think about is like 815 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:41,879 Speaker 1: this is such a non controversial thing or it's like, oh, 816 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: tomato but cool Hines, Like what would happen if Hines 817 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: got political?
