We are gonna talk about just a cool 171 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: thing I read about about. How you guys seen this. 172 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: You heard about this. Most of the creatures in the world, 173 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: on the planet Earth are part of a bioluminescent galaxy 174 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 1: that exists uh below the twilight zone and like the 175 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: pitch black part of the ocean. I thought they were 176 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: like the occasional fish that lit up. Apparently when you 177 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: go down there, it's like a constellation of just tons 178 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: and tons of animals that laid up. So we'll talk 179 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: about that. We'll talk about the box office, we'll talk 180 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: about why a quiet place too is frustrating hearing impaired viewers, 181 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 1: all of that plenty more. But first, Melissa Ali, we 182 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: like to ask our guests what is something from your 183 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 1: search history? Oh, well, mine is so stupid perfect. I 184 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: just occasionally I'll like pop in or something I'll pop 185 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: in my brain, like a memory of like someone I 186 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: met or like I hooked up with, and I was like, oh, yeah, 187 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: what happened to that guy I hooked up with, like 188 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: when I was in high school? And it was that 189 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: I met in an A O L chat room And 190 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: so the only thing I remember about him was his 191 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: name was Alex. He spoke Russian. He went to Western 192 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: Michigan University. So I googled Alex Russian, Western Regian University. 193 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: Clearly did not result in anything. And why I like 194 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: thought that was gonna work. Yeah. More importantly, do you 195 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 1: remember the screen name? No. I tried to actually see 196 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: if I could log back into my old AOL emails, 197 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: but I haven't checked it in fifteen years. So it's like, 198 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: this is the count has been suspended due to inactivity. 199 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: Damn it. I would kill the log into my old 200 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: AOL email. Oh man, yeah, I feel like that's I've 201 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 1: tried to look for people based on screen names and 202 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: it never worked. But never it gave me hope for 203 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: a second, because like sometimes it will be like search 204 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: screen names, email addresses, whatever to find somebody in it. 205 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: Now you always have to end up paying the last 206 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: status you have to pay exactly is it is it 207 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: worth seventy dollars to find out if someone, when it 208 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: is to me is married and has a family? Now? Cool, 209 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: good for them. You pay enough. You can just look 210 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: at their webcam right there in the moment, what they're 211 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: doing right now. I bet you that would be if 212 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: in a in a near future, that's probably an option, 213 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: Like for more, do you want to access their ring cameras? Oh? 214 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: It definitely that. Then you pay the money in they're 215 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: like like, can't do that, Ali, what's something from your 216 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: search history?

So I started putting out food outside 363 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 1: my house at the beginning of quarantine because like I 364 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: saw like a couple of cats walk up by, like 365 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 1: I want to put out food now. I have a 366 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: cat that I named Skeletor that basically lives in my 367 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: front yard. I feed it three times a day.

Possums are adorable. I know 372 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: they look like scary, like pointy cats with like teeth inside, 373 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: but they're so nice and they eat a lot of ticks, 374 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,880 Speaker 1: and they don't have brabies, and they don't have brabies. 375 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: My mom is the same the same crew as you. 376 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 1: She's been. She had started off with her seeing a 377 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: possum once and she is like the North Hollywood possum Lady. 378 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 1: She's a card carrying member of like the North American 379 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: like Opossum Society, and she's like a possum of it. 380 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: And at the first time, like, I'll feed them nasty 381 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: what they're fine, Their dusts out, they have brabies. The 382 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,239 Speaker 1: scars on their faces because they don't see well, and 383 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: they go around the world using the front of their face. 384 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: That's why it gets all scarred up. It's not because 385 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: they're nasty and getting fights. That's just how they make sense. 386 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: And they carry their babies on their backs. Yeah. Yeah, 387 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 1: they'll have like five little possums like just hank like 388 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 1: carrying around on their backs until they're big enough own carries.

Cold showers instead of hot showers really 391 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: good for you, actually good for your nervous system. It's 392 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: like people do those like cry oh you know, like 393 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: you go in that like freezing chamber and it's just 394 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 1: easier and you can do it from home like a 395 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 1: cold plung should just rejuvenating gives you more energy than 396 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: hot shower. You'll be surprised. Try it out. Doesn't have 397 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: to be a full cold shower, just like go cold 398 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 1: for fifteen seconds at the end of your shower and 399 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: it will. I love doing that. I love doing that. 400 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: Yeah I see see to a cold water floater on 401 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,360 Speaker 1: top of your hot shower. Hell yeah baby, And then 402 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: I take a dose of that oxygen and I'm ready 403 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: to go. It's funny one of those things that Seinfeld 404 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: really influenced for me. And now like I'm just realizing 405 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: that as you say it, Like I think when I 406 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: was younger, like cold showers because they like wake you up. 407 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: And then there was that part in Seinfeld where somebody 408 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: claims to take a cold shower and Seinfeld's like cold 409 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: showers their first psychotics. And there I was like, yeah, 410 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 1: that's right, like that just resonated with me, and right, 411 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: guy who kids, right exactly. I just I need to 412 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: go through and just remove all Seinfeld assumptions from my 413 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 1: brain because I could have been the president galaxy brain 414 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: and all of sudden, what if airport peanuts aren't too small? 415 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break and we will 416 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: be right back to talk about the news, and we're back. 417 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 1: And the Biden administration has been a little strange for 418 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 1: the lack of kind of scandals coming from the right, 419 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 1: Like they I haven't heard about him wearing a the 420 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 1: wrong suit to anything the way that we we did 421 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: when Obama was empowered. That you know, Fox News just 422 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: could bring up anything about him, and like their majority 423 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: racist viewership was just ready to hate him. But Biden 424 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: looks exactly like their majority racist viewership. So now they 425 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: and I think also his policies are pretty popular, right well, yeah, 426 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: I mean they don't remember they didn't want to talk 427 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: about the stimulus because You're like, yeah, I need money 428 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: from the government. Are you kidding me? I don't I'm 429 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: not working right now. So they're like, talk about Mr 430 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 1: potato Head, you know how they have to talk about 431 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: Mr potato Head. Dr Seuss And the big one these 432 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: days isn't that critical race theory? Yeah, and it's it's 433 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 1: it's completely like like you said, it's we're in a 434 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: whole new environment where they can't even focus on even 435 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: the low hanging fruit, which would be like, what is 436 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: Joe Biden actually done from his campaign promises? Because I 437 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: would if you're looking for something to be critical of, 438 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: that's something you could go down and listen, like, well, 439 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: where is that student debt relief? Where was that that 440 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 1: weird math where certainly turned into a different amount of 441 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: stimulus money. But now it's critical race theory. And we've 442 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 1: talked about before how this has been a conscious effort 443 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: to create this like outrage over it. And the numbers 444 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: I think are starting to show that this is very clear. 445 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: Fox News mentioned critical race theory five fifty two times 446 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: in the previous eleven months, and then it ramped up 447 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: in the last three which there's another number that's like 448 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: over six hundred and it's only gotten more and more. 449 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 1: Last week, they've shoehorned it into coverage one five times 450 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: in five days. And then so then you see, we've 451 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: seen all their coverage or a lot of coverage in 452 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: the media of this has been you know, people in 453 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: Florida or Texas, like governors and legislators trying to be like, 454 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: we gotta stop teaching this, or like scenes of like 455 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 1: outraged like racist parents at these school board meetings being like, 456 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: don't teach them history? What is this? It's destroying us? 457 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: And yeah, the biggest thing, that's just the biggest miss 458 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: of all of this, at least in the reporting, is that, 459 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 1: first of all, it's a decades old academic discipline, but 460 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: on top of it, it's just taught at the graduate level, 461 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: like when you are in university. This isn't we didn't 462 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,719 Speaker 1: grow up with, like alright, kids, and now open up 463 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 1: your critical race theory books. Is like first graders. So 464 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: all of the energy is completely misplaced. And this is 465 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 1: all by design because they just need this catch all 466 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: outraged topic to get people sort of, they just need 467 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: an energy to exploit. And yeah, I think the more 468 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: you you hear, what how people talk about it, You're like, 469 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,199 Speaker 1: do they even know what this is? Or this is 470 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: just the new dog whistle that can play a bunch 471 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,959 Speaker 1: of different tunes, right, didn't like one of them was 472 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: one of the conservative politicians was asked to describe, like 473 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: what critical race theory is and the person whose last 474 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: name is Pringle appropriately enough. It basically teaches that certain 475 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: children are inherently bad people because of the color of 476 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: their skin. Period. H that's a lot to unpack these 477 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: people whose perspective, these people when they were doing the 478 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: training programs and the government. If you don't buy into 479 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 1: what they taught you, they sent your way to a 480 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: re education camp. Huh, what do you mean? The white 481 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: male executives are sent to a three day re education 482 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: camp where they were told that their white male culture 483 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: wasn't there. Okay, let's just let's there, sir. Are you okay? 484 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: Because this is like just hearing that in the in 485 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: the wake of the uprisings last summer, there were companies 486 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: saying like, we need racial sensitivity training because they're clear 487 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: blind spots from a corporate culture that needs to be addressed. 488 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 1: And then this is now turned into they're what they're 489 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: fucking their heads are bagged and they're thrown into a 490 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: fucking van and then driven like the dark side of town. 491 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: For like how their eyes peeled open to watch like 492 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: a bunch of fucking rap videos. I don't know what 493 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: the funk they think this is. And it goes on 494 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: still like the other like attacks are people saying, quote, 495 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: minority students are going to suffer the most from this. 496 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: When you teach students that the system is against them, 497 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: they have no motivation to learn. They are not going 498 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: to try to work, They're not going to try to 499 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: improve themselves. Seeing that part, what are you talking about? 500 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 1: You even I'm going to improve themselves, he says. I 501 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: mean this whole idea that it's like, oh, thank you 502 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: the savior person for saving me from being defeated by 503 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 1: acknowledging that I'm surviving in a racist construct, Like what 504 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: what exactly is the concern there? And I think this 505 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: has been going it's it's just gaining more and more momentum. 506 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: But I think this is the part where you really 507 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: see what it's all about, because underneath it, it's just 508 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: like the other threats are that it will lead kids 509 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: to Marxism, and this is the last thing that this 510 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 1: guy Pringle said, he said, quote, this is still the 511 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: greatest country that ever ever been in the history of 512 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: the world. Okay uh, and the radical left is trying 513 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: to destroy that and tear us apart and divide this 514 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,239 Speaker 1: country based on racing class, which is exactly what they 515 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: do in communist countries. Hum, I don't so you don't. 516 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: So you don't know what communism is either, Okay, cool? Goddamn. 517 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: They love comparing things to like concentration camps and like 518 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: just implying, did you see that? What's her face? Marjorie whatever? Yeah? 519 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: I was just gonna say, like as one of them 520 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:23,959 Speaker 1: is apologizing for comparing masks to Yeah, she's like I 521 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: had like, was she not forty years to go to 522 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: a Holocaust museum? Like? Yeah, have you not taught that? 523 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: Was she not taught that? And this is why we 524 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: need better education because she didn't know what the Holocaust was. 525 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: And it's like, y'all, I was just in that museum. 526 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: She literally said, hey, it happened, Like are you what where? 527 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: They just don't know. I saw this. I saw this 528 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: TikTok the other day for this like Republican lady was 529 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: complaining about the Quaker oats guy on the canister and 530 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 1: is like, if we're gonna change anti mimah, we should 531 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: get rid of this slave owner around the this can 532 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: of votes. And like someone was like, that's not a 533 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: slave owner, that's a Quaker, that's a completely different that's 534 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: not a slave owner. You just no one knows what 535 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: they're talking about, right, Yeah, I mean, and I think 536 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: even with that Marjorie Taylor Green comment, it's like it 537 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: just shows you how much of a threat these kinds 538 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 1: of people are when this is their worldview. And then 539 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: they enter the halls of Congress too, you know, drum 540 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: up legislation that is trying to reinforce their worldview where 541 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 1: maybe the Holocaust I don't know, I don't know there 542 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: were you there, Yeah exactly. That's like her. So I 543 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: went to like a shitty public school in Michigan, and 544 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: I know about the Holocaust. Like at the very least, 545 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: we didn't have parents at home that we're saying, you know, 546 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: it didn't happen. The teaching because in eighth grade we 547 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: took a trip to d C. I may have told 548 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 1: this story before before we're going into the Holocaust Museum, 549 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: our teachers, before we got off the bus, said Hey, 550 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 1: I just want to let you know we got a 551 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: letter from a parent that said that the Holocaust never 552 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: happened and that they didn't want they didn't want your 553 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: classmate in to go to this museum. I just want 554 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: to let all of you know. I'm not going to 555 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 1: say who it is, but I just want to let 556 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: you know that there are people who are going to 557 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: deny what all of the things you are about to 558 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: see in this museum. And it was really a pointed. 559 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: It was like it was like everyone's like, yo, what 560 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: the funk? And I'm growing in l A. Were like 561 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: we saw a Shimmler's List, it was best picture. But 562 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: like then we go in and that was sort of wow. 563 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: That was my first time even hearing that. People were like, 564 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:50,719 Speaker 1: what do you but that ship happened? Like what are 565 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: you talking about? Holocaust deniers? Until maybe like ten years ago, 566 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: I had no idea it was a thing, right, yeah, 567 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: all right, very cool, cool time. Marjorie Taylor Green, what 568 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: let's talk about the police real quick? Uh they're back. 569 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: And then it was easier, so uh one just kind 570 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: of smaller scale thing. But the manager from the shake 571 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: check that's supposedly poisoned the milkshakes. A poison is suing 572 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: the NYPD because yeah, they arrested him, interrogated him for hours, 573 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: like continued, Yeah, and this was this was after they knew, 574 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: like after they had happened. Yeah, they went to the 575 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: emergency were on the emergency people were like, you did 576 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: not drink bleach, Like that's just not a not a 577 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: thing that happened to you. So they came to him, 578 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: were like this tastes a little off, and he was like, 579 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: oh my god, I'm so sorry, and gave them vouchers. Uh, 580 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 1: they come back two hours later and arrest him after 581 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 1: going to the emergency room, and then their union immediately 582 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: like reports that they were poisoned on and it like 583 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 1: goes viral because again, the right just needs something to 584 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: complain about. But onto kind of the bigger stuff is 585 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: just the general reaction backlash by the police to just 586 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: the fact that they were criticized, openly criticized. There are 587 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: now like more and more documented examples of police refusing 588 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: to answer calls for help and being like, well, you 589 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: should have not defunded us, then come on. And there's 590 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: this argument that conservatives have been making since Ferguson. It's 591 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:54,240 Speaker 1: called the Ferguson effect, and it claims that because people 592 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 1: protested the police, there was a spike in the murder 593 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: rate and that's because like the police were scared or something. 594 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: And the facts sorry that the police when their protests 595 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: just disassociate just like check out and will not protect 596 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 1: those people. Like I I've talked about how I've like 597 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 1: anecdotal cases where somebody was robbed and called the police 598 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 1: and they were like came the next day and we're 599 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: like sorry, but you guys shouldn't have like talked to 600 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 1: your council person and tell them they shouldn't have defunded us, 601 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: and like the funding change is tiny, it's like almost 602 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 1: non existent. It's not real. It's just the police being 603 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:41,479 Speaker 1: fucking petulant. And yeah, I don't know, and I feel 604 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: like this story is being covered in the margins. But 605 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: it's not like there's evidence that MYPD response time to 606 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 1: like crimes in progress has dropped since the protests, even 607 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: though ambulance response time has like gotten quicker because they're 608 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,439 Speaker 1: fewer cars on the because of the pandemic. And it's 609 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 1: not a like the police are like yeah, because people 610 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:09,399 Speaker 1: were retiring because they their feelings were hurt. It's just like, well, 611 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 1: fucking hire new people, like what these aren't good if 612 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: you if you're feel that's that means you aren't the 613 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,760 Speaker 1: kind of person who should be protecting or serving fucking 614 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 1: anybody rather than your own like racist fantasies that you've 615 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: you entered the force with. And I think it's also 616 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: just when you see things like that too, you're like, well, 617 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 1: what is what is? What do the police really? Do? 618 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Because do they prevent crime? 619 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: I'm not sure? Is that is that how we prevent 620 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: crime by having the police? I don't think so. I 621 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:39,240 Speaker 1: think it's because people are destitute and resort to extra 622 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: legal things to survive, or because the nature of trying 623 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,280 Speaker 1: to survive puts people in a different mindset. Your behavior 624 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: is completely different. It's this example. Always say, it's like 625 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 1: the same reason why you don't see a lot of 626 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 1: cops in Beverly Hills, the same reason you don't see 627 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 1: a lot of cops in Burbank unless you're brown and 628 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: you're driving down Magnolian your system is too loud. But 629 00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 1: like that whole idea is those areas are well supported. 630 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: So because of that there's not the same sort of 631 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,399 Speaker 1: forces acting on people to commit crimes. And I think 632 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: that to to think like, oh man, you just gotta 633 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 1: have more boots and they're just brutalizing people. That's that's 634 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: it's all. It's all fucking it's all. It's just a myth. 635 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: And yeah, I wonder why there is less sort of 636 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 1: energy to cover this, because it felt like if this 637 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: came out sort of last summer, this would have been 638 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 1: reported more. But I think it also shows how the 639 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: media how's up a role to play in upholding these 640 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 1: systems of oppression by saying like, well, we can make 641 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: it hot to a point and then we'll ease off, 642 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,479 Speaker 1: and then we won't really give substantive reporting on this. Right, 643 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: there's this writer Thomas apt A BT who just released 644 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: a book called Bleeding Out that's sort of a manifesto 645 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: for targeting violence. And the book points out that basically 646 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: all the methods that the police used to police neighborhoods 647 00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 1: where a lot of murders happen our counter productive. And 648 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: we're seeing like Biden's infrastructure bill, which is going to 649 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: get watered down, but like, at least it started out 650 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,879 Speaker 1: with a lot of this guy's ideas like really well 651 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: funded in it. And I know that at a local 652 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 1: level a bunch of different city councils past funding for 653 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 1: non police like emergency response, which is something we've talked 654 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 1: about on the show as like yeah, there's a mental 655 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: health issue or basically any issue that doesn't involve somebody 656 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 1: who is physically harming somebody, like send some there should 657 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 1: be an option to call somebody who's not the police, basically, um, 658 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 1: And that is we're we're starting to see a little 659 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 1: bit more funding. So there is small victories, but it 660 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: just isn't really breaking through to the mainstream just how 661 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: toxic the police response to those protests have been. But 662 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 1: we'll have a lot of articles about this in the footnotes. 663 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,879 Speaker 1: It should be like most disqualifying, you know what I mean, 664 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:06,399 Speaker 1: Like if that's your behavior to say, like it's like, well, look, honey, 665 00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,800 Speaker 1: I didn't I couldn't clean the gutters because you asked 666 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 1: me to to get the garage tidy. If I have look, 667 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 1: if you asked me to do that, I could have 668 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: done the other thing. So like it's that same shitty 669 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:20,359 Speaker 1: logic of well you inconvenience to me, So now I'm 670 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:24,760 Speaker 1: gonna just be I'm gonna have this resentment and completely 671 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: disengage from my work. And it's just like that in 672 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 1: and of itself should be such a horrifying thing for 673 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,800 Speaker 1: people to learn that these people are like even exercising 674 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 1: that kind of agency, to be like, nah, while we're 675 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: still paying them too. Yeah, yeah, with ceremony with our 676 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: real American dollars. I mean, the fact that there is 677 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: one type of person is allowed to just go up 678 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: and shoot someone based on their judgment and not face 679 00:40:55,760 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 1: any legal repercussions. You would think that that would be 680 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: the most you know, scrutinized group of people in the world, right, 681 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: Like we would, we would be all over those people. 682 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: And when we even try to like give them a 683 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:19,720 Speaker 1: modicum of like responsibility for the actions of their worst 684 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: the people who are just wantingly killing people, they react 685 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 1: like this. It's just such a broken system. Like it 686 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: really makes you realize why people are asking for the 687 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 1: abolition of of police. It's because they helped protect the 688 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 1: property from the billionaires that don't actually pay their salaries, 689 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 1: which is the whole irony of it too. Right, All right, 690 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll come back and 691 00:41:47,760 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 1: talk about a cool thing I read, and we're back. 692 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,760 Speaker 1: And every once in a while I read an article 693 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 1: in The New Yorker and it makes me really proud, 694 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,239 Speaker 1: and so I have to like tell everybody about it 695 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 1: that read something in the New York Yeah. Sometimes I'll 696 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: just do a whole segment on a cartoon that I've 697 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: read and like why the joke was funny. Um, sometimes 698 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 1: I don't even get it. I'm informed later by the 699 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 1: listeners like, no, that actually wasn't the joke, but um, anyways, 700 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 1: I just had my mind blown by this article about 701 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,839 Speaker 1: kind of the deepest parts of the ocean, which we've 702 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 1: actually been talking about on the show in the context 703 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: of like unidentified aerial phenomenon and submerged phenomenon, because you know, 704 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,359 Speaker 1: these like white tic tics that people keep seeing tent 705 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,360 Speaker 1: to be around bodies of water and around the ocean, 706 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: and so some people speculate that that's where they're coming from, 707 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:56,320 Speaker 1: is like the sea floor. But this just kind of 708 00:42:56,560 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 1: blew my mind just in general, with without any context 709 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: of of aliens that so the they're only only the 710 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 1: top layers of the oceans are illuminated. There's the sunlight zone, 711 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,879 Speaker 1: which extends about seven feet the twilight zone, which goes 712 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:17,880 Speaker 1: down another feet and then everything below that there's just 713 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 1: no there's no light. And down there, like every the 714 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 1: light is created by the animals themselves. There's like bioluminescence. 715 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:30,320 Speaker 1: And apparently bioluminescence has developed in like fifty different ways. 716 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:33,720 Speaker 1: It's not like everybody figured out the same trick evolutionarily. 717 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: It they all developed like in different ways using different methods. 718 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:42,399 Speaker 1: And it's super cool. So this explorer like goes down there. 719 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 1: It's apparently really really hard to get to that depth 720 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,560 Speaker 1: because you know, you have to lower a camera, you 721 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 1: would be like crushed as a for the most part. 722 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: And when they get down there, explorers are always like 723 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 1: it's like a firework show down there. It's not. It's 724 00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: not like every once in a while there's there's a 725 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 1: glowing animal. It's like they're just everywhere because some avatar 726 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: type ship. Yeah, it's really it's like some avatary ship 727 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: and it's and there's so many animals down there that 728 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:18,320 Speaker 1: are are bioluminescent that this scientists says that she estimates 729 00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 1: that it's most of the creatures on the plant, like 730 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,800 Speaker 1: most of the organisms on the planet Earth are down 731 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 1: in that zone, and we'd like, yeah, because we don't 732 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 1: know what's down there. Yea, we just don't know. There's 733 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 1: aliens down there. People are like there's aliens in the sky. 734 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, guys, have you been in the ocean. There's 735 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 1: aliens down there. I don't even know what's down there. 736 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,360 Speaker 1: Look outside the planet? Is this like? Because I always 737 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:45,879 Speaker 1: see like whenever I've seen like those Planet Earth type things, 738 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,839 Speaker 1: those are always the most fascinating sections for me because 739 00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I've seen birds and other stuff, but 740 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 1: like all of this, I don't know technology or these 741 00:44:56,360 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: evolutionary traits that they've developed. It really is. It shows 742 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: you like we they're so little we really know. And 743 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 1: but when you say that most of the organisms, you 744 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:10,359 Speaker 1: mean like numerically in terms of the number of like 745 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 1: different species like that, I think it's the number of animals. 746 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 1: The number of animals, like there's so many down there, 747 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 1: And yeah, so that's like the thing that Yeah, I've 748 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: seen the you know, the David Edinborough nature documentaries, and 749 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 1: I always got the impression like, yeah, there's like a 750 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 1: handful of these like really cool like bioluminescent creatures down there. 751 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 1: But for the most part, it's supposed to be like 752 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: a desert down there, and this scientist is like, no, 753 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:45,080 Speaker 1: it's incredibly like active and full of life and full 754 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:49,319 Speaker 1: of like glowing just whild It's like a it's like 755 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 1: a light show down there. Yeah, you know who um 756 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 1: is just recently hosted a nature show and it's like 757 00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 1: the most distracting thing of all time ross from Friends, 758 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,279 Speaker 1: David Schwimmer, and it's like I cannot get through it 759 00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 1: with his voice being the one it's like the beautiful gazelle. 760 00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 1: Like it's so bad. Wait what it's all like Discovery 761 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: plus or something. Yeah, that's a Joe bad. I thought 762 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,400 Speaker 1: it was a joke and it's so serious and I 763 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:26,920 Speaker 1: was like, who is this for? I guess friends fans. 764 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 1: It's so bad. Wow, Like yeah, I don't think, you know, 765 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:35,880 Speaker 1: great scientific commentary. When I think David Swimmer, I'm greatly 766 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 1: because he was a paleontologist on the show, so they're 767 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,400 Speaker 1: like he should do I don't know, to have some 768 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,799 Speaker 1: fucked up data that suggests like this like ven diagram 769 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 1: overlap of friends fans and people who like the like 770 00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 1: like nature ship too, maybe aith type combo or like, no, 771 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,840 Speaker 1: it sounds stupid, but they're just doing numbers. Yes, I 772 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 1: mean that makes total sense. So like Friends is one 773 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,879 Speaker 1: of the most popular streaming shows of all time, and 774 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 1: people like Nature Diet, Like I think a lot of 775 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,800 Speaker 1: people watch nature documentaries on there. So George stands and 776 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:19,920 Speaker 1: narrated a nature documentary. Yes, that's literally I made a 777 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:23,839 Speaker 1: reference to that yesterday and yesterday's episode. Well, my god, 778 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 1: there you go a lot of a lot of time 779 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:32,760 Speaker 1: felt references. Alright, let's let's talk about the box office. 780 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,239 Speaker 1: I was very disappointed to see that the movie and 781 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 1: the Heights bombed, Like I think people were saying, like, 782 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 1: at least they were expecting at least twenty million at 783 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,760 Speaker 1: the box office, and it made eleven. And also nobody 784 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 1: watched it on HBO Max. It had fewer people watch 785 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: it than Cruella and Cruella costs like thirty dollars, and 786 00:47:56,120 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 1: in the Heights was free, more people paid to see. 787 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:07,879 Speaker 1: Karl was good. I'm sorry, Karl was good. It's really bad. 788 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:09,879 Speaker 1: I don't think that's the hot tap. It was bad. 789 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 1: It was it was ridiculous, but I was entertained the 790 00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,359 Speaker 1: whole time I heard it tells the truth about those 791 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 1: fucking Dalmatians, right, They're evil and will kill your mother. 792 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 1: They should have been dead. Yeah, Ellie was furious. Elie 793 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 1: said it as a joke where I was like, what 794 00:48:27,239 --> 00:48:29,279 Speaker 1: is the origin going to story going to be that 795 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 1: Dalmatians killed her family? And then that was the origin story? 796 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 1: Sorry spoiler alert in the first scene, right, yeah, it's 797 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:45,399 Speaker 1: a person that's like her Bruce Wayne moment. My god, 798 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 1: these hundred and one Dalmatians family. I haven't watched it, 799 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 1: which I should have like wanted to watch it. It 800 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,799 Speaker 1: was like a in a dark period of my life 801 00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 1: for real Hamilton's dork. I saw The Heights on Broadway 802 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 1: loved it. Was really like rooting for this movie, and 803 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,560 Speaker 1: I just think they fucked up the marketing like they 804 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 1: it just seemed like the marketing, all the ads I 805 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: saw for it just it seemed like it was just 806 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:21,160 Speaker 1: another like West Side Story type thing, like or you know, 807 00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:25,360 Speaker 1: a musical set in modern New York, and it was 808 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,279 Speaker 1: like they were The thing that's cool about it is 809 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 1: the way that like the rapping like carries the story 810 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 1: forward and it has like, you know, a momentum of 811 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 1: its own, and they just like don't have that in 812 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 1: almost any of the trailers or commercials for it. It 813 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 1: reminded me of like when they released Frozen and like 814 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,560 Speaker 1: just made it made the first trailer about Olaf the 815 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 1: Snowman because they were like scared that people would see 816 00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 1: that it had two sisters at the center instead of 817 00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 1: like a guy and a girl and would like wouldn't 818 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 1: watch it. They were like hiding the thing that was 819 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 1: good about it because it was unorthodox. Basically, yeah, I mean, 820 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure that all the sort of controversy around like 821 00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 1: the colorism and things like that that's consumed like a 822 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:16,919 Speaker 1: lot of the coverage recently more than me even hearing 823 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 1: what people thought of the film apologizes you know, for 824 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:25,360 Speaker 1: the lack of representation of like Afro Latin XT people 825 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:27,040 Speaker 1: that could have been in the film and things like that. 826 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:30,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't And the trailers almost seemed like 827 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:33,440 Speaker 1: it was like it didn't register to me that it's 828 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:35,160 Speaker 1: a musical. I know it's a musical, but when I 829 00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 1: watched this stuff didn't I'm like I didn't know either, 830 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,280 Speaker 1: but like a very high energy action film with dancing 831 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 1: or something, that's what I thought, and it was like 832 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 1: a yes, there's also like something that felt sort of 833 00:50:56,080 --> 00:51:00,880 Speaker 1: Obama administration era about like how I don't know. It 834 00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:03,920 Speaker 1: was just like really on the nose, like he's wearing 835 00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:08,399 Speaker 1: a shirt that says Nueva York and the trailer like 836 00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 1: it's like, yes, we're in New York and we are 837 00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:16,960 Speaker 1: part of the community. Yes, the way by York. But yeah, anyways, 838 00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 1: the marketing just felt like it was kind of selling 839 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 1: it short according to people who have seen it, which yeah, 840 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 1: is the problem. Bummed to see it didn't do better, 841 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 1: and then When's West Side Story come out, like it's 842 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:34,920 Speaker 1: like what the fuck? Who planned out their release schedule here? Like, hey, 843 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,839 Speaker 1: you're going toe to toe with Spielberg's West Side Story. Well, 844 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 1: I think the pandemic planned it out, like maybe, but yeah, 845 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:43,560 Speaker 1: I do think they were supposed to come out in 846 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:46,799 Speaker 1: the same year during the pandemic, because I remember during 847 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,799 Speaker 1: the oscars when we began, that was when I begin 848 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,680 Speaker 1: to see even more West Side Story and in the 849 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:57,520 Speaker 1: Heights like footage. I was like, this is confusing to me. Yeah, 850 00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm mixing up the two in my head 851 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,640 Speaker 1: right out, and I don't. I'm certainly that doesn't help. 852 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:06,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, again, something that if you showed the rapping, 853 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:10,800 Speaker 1: would have like made it a very like the wrapping 854 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:12,959 Speaker 1: and west Side story is supposed to be not very good. 855 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 1: I've been told it was all written by Maclamore, right, 856 00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 1: Alan Menkin and Maclamore. Also just checking back on something 857 00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:33,800 Speaker 1: we've speculated about, the idea that like streaming shows aren't 858 00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: really as popular as we treat them. I guess a 859 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:40,839 Speaker 1: lot a lot of the time, like that low key 860 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,200 Speaker 1: show that everyone was talking about a week ago. This 861 00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:46,319 Speaker 1: guy Scott Mendelssohn from Forbes, who I think is one 862 00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:49,759 Speaker 1: of the smartest people writing about kind of the entertainment industry, 863 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 1: was pointing out that like the equivalent of eight million 864 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:56,319 Speaker 1: dollars worth of ticket sales saw that show like the 865 00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 1: opening week, like for a Marvel thing, it would have 866 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 1: been a complete like disaster. But people treat it like, oh, 867 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:07,719 Speaker 1: Loki is like a big show, and it's like no 868 00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:11,719 Speaker 1: nobody nobody really watches that ship, but we treat it 869 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,440 Speaker 1: like it's a it's we treat it like it's another 870 00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 1: Marvel movie or something. So anyway, so you'd luck good 871 00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 1: luck to them, good luck to those, good luck to Disney, 872 00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:26,520 Speaker 1: good luck they make it. They make it. Hope they 873 00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 1: I mean they're they're they're so uh they're they're known 874 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:35,759 Speaker 1: for being very economic. I think they'll survive. Yeah, No, 875 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 1: I I do have high hopes for that company. I 876 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:42,840 Speaker 1: think they're going they're going places. The only reason that 877 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:44,960 Speaker 1: I want to watch that is for what's his name? 878 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:49,319 Speaker 1: Ohm Wilson? I miss you know, Wilson and Wilson. What's in? 879 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 1: What's he in? Yeah? What things? Oh? Yes? Oh yeah? 880 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:56,240 Speaker 1: And uh. There was like a little piece of viral 881 00:53:56,280 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 1: marketing where Tom Hittelson did a oh and Wilson impression 882 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:05,919 Speaker 1: to like add a press junk hit and people are like, oh, 883 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 1: I'm so here for this like Owen Wilson impression, and 884 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:11,840 Speaker 1: it was like so bad. It was just him doing 885 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:17,560 Speaker 1: a fucking American accent. I'm like, what's happening? Alright, Let's 886 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:21,359 Speaker 1: talk about the movie people are actually watching was which 887 00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:24,560 Speaker 1: is a quiet place to which, Yeah, it kind of 888 00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 1: became the first pandemic era movie to make more than 889 00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:31,520 Speaker 1: a hundred million dollars at the U. S. Box office, which, again, 890 00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:33,520 Speaker 1: like you talk about people that we root for here, 891 00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:38,880 Speaker 1: John Krasinski's designer sock vendor business, that's we were always 892 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:42,439 Speaker 1: concerned that that's making enough money, so happy to see 893 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:46,360 Speaker 1: him have good things happen for him. So there's a 894 00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 1: minor controversy in the UK about the lack of subtitled 895 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:54,319 Speaker 1: screenings offered to the public on this movie, which is 896 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:59,040 Speaker 1: like the protagonist of this movie is a deaf character 897 00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:02,720 Speaker 1: played by a deaf actress, um and like a huge 898 00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:08,840 Speaker 1: breakthrough and like creating a role model for hearing impaired viewers, 899 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:14,040 Speaker 1: and they just like aren't showing it in a format 900 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: that would be like possible for deaf people to watch. 901 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 1: And this kind of story, like jmr Writer kind of 902 00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:28,440 Speaker 1: did a deep dive into just what the whole process, 903 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,320 Speaker 1: like what it means when they say, okay, closed captioning 904 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:35,319 Speaker 1: devices are available, Like that's just a little screen that 905 00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 1: they give you the plugs into your cup holders some somehow, 906 00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:41,719 Speaker 1: and it just like says the words on it, but 907 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 1: you have to like look back and forth between the 908 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,879 Speaker 1: screen and like this tiny little screen in front of you, 909 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:52,280 Speaker 1: which sucks. Like that's people are like this is awful, 910 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 1: like and it's also like all of it is like 911 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:59,560 Speaker 1: based off the dumbest presumptions on how people watch movies 912 00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:02,320 Speaker 1: or would repel someone from going to a movie or 913 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:05,200 Speaker 1: attract someone to going to a movie. Like the idea 914 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:07,239 Speaker 1: is like, well, we can't, we can't have more open 915 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 1: caption films. People don't go, right, That's why. So in 916 00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 1: the UK they do open caption which is like putting 917 00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:16,640 Speaker 1: the captions on and just on the screen, and like 918 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:19,799 Speaker 1: there's a certain number of movies that have them, which 919 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 1: seems to be the better option for everybody. But there's 920 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,359 Speaker 1: a controversy because they're just not doing enough of them 921 00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:30,279 Speaker 1: in the UK right now. But so there's been a 922 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:35,359 Speaker 1: push to do open captioning in the US, and like 923 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:40,920 Speaker 1: theater owners have basically like just sandbagged any efforts to 924 00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:44,040 Speaker 1: do this. Like they they'll be like, Okay, yeah, we wanna. 925 00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:46,480 Speaker 1: We're gonna do a study where we like do open 926 00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 1: captioning and see if it like changes the box office. 927 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 1: And then they'll like put open captioning on like Cats, 928 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:59,160 Speaker 1: like on a Thursday morning, and then like put not 929 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:03,440 Speaker 1: open been captioning on Avengers End Game on a Friday 930 00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:05,760 Speaker 1: and night and be like, well, I think that speaks 931 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:08,960 Speaker 1: for itself. Guys. We can't Yeah, we can't do We're 932 00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:11,960 Speaker 1: gonna be drowned. We're gonna drown, and just the loss 933 00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:15,799 Speaker 1: of profit from doing this. Like I watch I my 934 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 1: wife and I keep the close captioning on all streaming 935 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 1: content that we watched. I always have my TV like 936 00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 1: that's that's the thing. There's a lot of like just 937 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 1: analysis that shows people who like watch even TV shows 938 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:36,720 Speaker 1: or Netflix with it on aren't hard of hearing or 939 00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 1: hearing impaired. Like it's because a lot I remember, like 940 00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 1: I first started doing it when Deadwood came out because 941 00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:45,680 Speaker 1: like the dialogue is so dense and like you know, 942 00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 1: colloquial and of the time that I was like I 943 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:52,439 Speaker 1: need to see the words they're saying it. And it's 944 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:54,920 Speaker 1: been a thing that carries on, like certain things. Sometimes 945 00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:57,440 Speaker 1: I'm like sometimes they'll distract me from actually like looking 946 00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:00,919 Speaker 1: at like the cinematography and whatever. But for the most part, 947 00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:03,800 Speaker 1: I don't mind it. And that's what's like so bizarre 948 00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:06,520 Speaker 1: because there's not it doesn't seem like there's a sentiment 949 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 1: from people who would it require open caption to be 950 00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:11,880 Speaker 1: like I would never Yeah, I don't thin people are 951 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 1: vehemently against it. I don't think there's going to be 952 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 1: like protests outside a MC like right, you know, with 953 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 1: misspelled signs because you actually think about it actually, And 954 00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:30,400 Speaker 1: there's even like this thing with like during the pandemic, 955 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:32,680 Speaker 1: like a lot of child development people were saying like, 956 00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 1: if your kids are gonna watch TV, like put the 957 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:39,080 Speaker 1: captions on because it's reading when they're very passively begin reading. 958 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 1: Like it's not a bad thing to do, so to 959 00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:49,680 Speaker 1: send my kids to school for the rest. Yeah, I 960 00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:54,520 Speaker 1: mean apparently Game of Thrones was a big people have 961 00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 1: looked at. There's a huge uptaking people who just leave 962 00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:00,520 Speaker 1: the subtitles on for Game of Thrones because it was 963 00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 1: like hard Dick kind of figure out, Okay, that person 964 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 1: is actually different from that guy with a white beard, 965 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:13,040 Speaker 1: and should have had that for Mara beast Town, right, 966 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,720 Speaker 1: they actually had to. This would also be really helpful 967 00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:22,440 Speaker 1: for Christopher Nolan movies. Oh my god, I feel like 968 00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:26,400 Speaker 1: he intentionally fucks up the sound he does. I couldn't 969 00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:30,760 Speaker 1: cared tant right. So there's a there was a theater 970 00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:35,200 Speaker 1: in Milwaukee that just made it exclusively open caption screenings 971 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:40,920 Speaker 1: because it was so hard to understand. Yeah, it's impossible, 972 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 1: it's really it's so you have you seen it. It's 973 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,080 Speaker 1: so impossible. The music is so loud, like the action 974 00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:53,600 Speaker 1: is so mixed it's terrible. But I literally thought something 975 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:56,480 Speaker 1: was wrong with my TV, right all right, this has 976 00:59:56,560 --> 01:00:00,920 Speaker 1: been since being in Dark Knighted Rises, like they like 977 01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:04,600 Speaker 1: kept having to like funk with the mix because it 978 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:07,480 Speaker 1: was just completely often nobody could understand what he was saying. 979 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:12,520 Speaker 1: Dun Kirk was fucking violent, like the sound and that 980 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:17,760 Speaker 1: was like aggressive and like damaging.

To be fair, 983 01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:28,360 Speaker 1: nobody knows what's going on in that movie, so right, 984 01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:30,800 Speaker 1: but you would think that you would make sure people 985 01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:34,360 Speaker 1: could understand the words that people were saying. But that's 986 01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:41,600 Speaker 1: sort of the experience, that disorienting situation where you know, 987 01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 1: Chris Well, I walked out because I didn't know what 988 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 1: was happening.
