But 139 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 3: I think overall this information is relevant. I think the 140 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 3: larger part of it, I don't. I don't think people 141 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 3: are saying, oh my god, people are don't believe in 142 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 3: climate change because of the Zillow listings. That's a I 143 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 3: think a bridge too far. But I do think it 144 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 3: is important. I think for anyone you know, like you're 145 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 3: looking again, I was living in a place that just 146 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 3: got skull fucked by a wildfire, and it was in there, 147 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 3: and I even looked at the maps I remember in 148 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 3: the beginning before we moved in that like showed my 149 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: place was like on the brink of like the dangers 150 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 3: of dangers like a fire. And most people were like, 151 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 3: it would take something like truly horrific for it going 152 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,679 Speaker 3: into like an urban basin like that, And I'm like, Okay, 153 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 3: I think. 154 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: They're making a face like they're doing the jack off 155 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,559 Speaker 1: hand motion. It would take something truly just like once 156 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: in a generation or once every seven years. 157 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 2: Now the climate a few years. 158 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll tell you who does have access to this 159 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: information is insurance companies. So if you're making a big 160 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: per just you should probably check it out. 161 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 2: Is probably a good idea, yeah. 162 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 3: Because also too, like you don't want to know you're 163 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 3: in a flood risk area, and then like do I 164 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 3: need flood insurance or whatever? 165 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? 166 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 3: Trust me, uh as somebody who's underinsured. Shit, bro to 167 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 3: keep your wits about you.

But 330 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 3: I think, like to your point, now that that polling 331 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 3: has come out and his own voters are like, uh yeah, 332 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 3: I think wait, so Trump's the president. 333 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 2: And the Republicans of this and in the House and 334 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court. 335 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually I think, yeah, this, I think this 336 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 3: is Trump's fault now.
