Speaker 1: Kutbooms.
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants
Speaker 2: of the old republic, a sol fashion of fairness. He
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.
Speaker 1: Wow.

Speaker 2: The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now.
Speaker 1: In the a em way The fifth Hour.

Speaker 3: means we're not talking to no one. There's actually someone listening.
Speaker 3: You're the someone. All we need is one person. Well,
Speaker 3: the company would like more than one person, but it
Speaker 3: is the fifth Hour. Happy Saturday, the sixteenth day of
Speaker 3: the month of March. Today's National corn Dog Day. Big
Speaker 3: fan of the corn dog, don't eat them very often,
Speaker 3: love the corn dog, and to me, the corn dog.
Speaker 3: Celebrating the corn dog is almost bigger than Saint Patrick's Day.
Speaker 3: I know that's blasphemy. Is an unpopular take, but I love.
Speaker 3: As a kid eating Wiener Schnitzel corn dogs was a tremendous,
Speaker 3: tremendous thing, a rare and appropriate treat.
Speaker 1: Didn't eat those all that much.
Speaker 3: But Danny G is hanging out with me traveling and
Speaker 3: the traveling Man Danny G Radio.
Speaker 4: That's right. I am live right now from the Graduate Hotel.
Speaker 4: Woke my ass up early to do this. Yesterday's live
Speaker 4: broadcast was a lot of fun. And I even brought
Speaker 4: a carry on. Well the carry on had my clothes,
Speaker 4: I should say. I checked one large Duffel bag and
Speaker 4: it had the water bottles and some NERF footballs in it.
Speaker 4: So I even passed out some swag to the listeners
Speaker 4: who showed up for the live studio audience.
Speaker 1: Nice.
Speaker 3: My famous story in the family my wife's grandfather when
Speaker 3: they used to go to Mexico. I think I've told
Speaker 3: this before, but he would his suitcase. He'd just pack
Speaker 3: a suitcase filled with water bottles because he was you
Speaker 3: know what, you don't drink the water in Mexico. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: that was his thing. He brought like no clothes and
Speaker 3: he just brought a suitcase filled with water.
Speaker 4: You just just gribbed goa's diaper bag. And we didn't
Speaker 4: know this, but you're supposed to take all the bottles.
Speaker 4: And we had one thing that had hot water in it.
Speaker 4: And then all the pre made bottles. They were measured out,
Speaker 4: but the formula wasn't mixed in them yet. But you
Speaker 4: can have a full bag of liquids. But Ben, they
Speaker 4: do this thing where they take these these little sticks
Speaker 4: and they they measure the steam coming out of the
Speaker 4: bottle and then they swab and they check the water
Speaker 4: to make sure it's really water. We stood there for
Speaker 4: about twenty minutes. Well they made sure that baby col
Speaker 4: wasn't a terrorist.
Speaker 1: Well, baby cod does have some tendencies.
Speaker 3: I mean he lets those farts rip, so you know
Speaker 3: that's a he's a fart terrorist.
Speaker 4: I know that, right, Yeah, you're not kidding about that.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, he's got that magic ability we all have
Speaker 1: when your little kids. But man alive. Well, thanks for
Speaker 1: doing this. I know the trip. That's a quick turnaround.
Speaker 1: That is a quick and you'll be back in La tonight. Right,
Speaker 1: you'll be.
Speaker 4: Back Yeah, as quick as we got here. It wasn't quick.
Speaker 4: It was a pretty long flight. It's just a quick turnaround.
Speaker 4: We did the live broadcast and then we're going home
Speaker 4: early afternoon today.
Speaker 1: All right, So on this pot we're gonna start now.
Speaker 3: As you know, Nanny, I am a I'm a bit
Speaker 3: of a fashionista. I'm known in the building as mister Fashion.
Speaker 3: So we're gonna start.
Speaker 4: On clearly, if Costco had a fashion show.
Speaker 3: We're gonna start on the catwalk. Yeah, on the catwalks.
Speaker 3: I was strutting down the catwalk runway doing a little pirouette.
Speaker 3: Now you were traveling, so you probably didn't didn't see this,
Speaker 3: But I debuted my newest hat. I'd mentioned I was
Speaker 3: going to get this hat, but I finally debuted it
Speaker 3: on the pod, which you can see on the YouTube feed.
Speaker 3: There is a YouTube feed of Malor monologues on obviously
Speaker 3: on the internet.
Speaker 1: You can check that out.
Speaker 3: But I made quite the fashion statement this week as
Speaker 3: I debuted my tribute to Canada. Oh come, the Houten
Speaker 3: hat has arrived. The poutine hat has arrived on the scene.
Speaker 3: And if for those her blind listeners though, this is
Speaker 3: a bright yellow cap and then it's got the Hutine
Speaker 3: logo in and I'll say this thing so you can see,
Speaker 3: because I'm sure you we're busy this week. Let me
Speaker 3: see if I can find as I'll hit this button
Speaker 3: here and then if I hit that, that'll probably go
Speaker 3: to you.
Speaker 1: But you're always all all the way Nashville, so it'll
Speaker 1: it'll take you a while, unless it won't because it
Speaker 1: happens instantaneously.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's alien technology or iPhone, so.
Speaker 1: That is true. I believe that to be true. So
Speaker 1: the yeah, the hat, it's a go.
Speaker 4: I'll import to your message.
Speaker 3: So it's got the poutine there. It's got a nice
Speaker 3: picture of fries with the you know, the poutine that's
Speaker 3: putine and then it says under it the Canadian salad,
Speaker 3: the Canadian salad.
Speaker 4: Do you wear this in public?
Speaker 1: I wore to work. I don't know, let I wear
Speaker 1: it in but maybe? Okay, Well, I don't know.
Speaker 3: That's a good looking a hat though, come on, that's
Speaker 3: that's rare now, you know, not many people have a
Speaker 3: poutine hat. And it's got I didn't even notice this,
Speaker 3: but it's got the Canadian logo on one side, and
Speaker 3: then that's the I think that's from Quebec, which is
Speaker 3: where poutine came from in Canada.
Speaker 1: Right, I think that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what it looks like.
Speaker 1: Either that or it's the New Orleans Saints thing. You
Speaker 1: know that thing in the Louisiana is it? What is
Speaker 1: that thing called? I don't know the term point.
Speaker 4: It's like the tip of a barbed wire fence.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, that's it. Yeah, that's it. So I wore that.
Speaker 4: I like that.
Speaker 1: I'm a big hat guy, as you know, so I
Speaker 1: was very happy.
Speaker 3: It's one of the more unique hats I have that
Speaker 3: I've been wearing the big timber hat from the high
Speaker 3: school in Montana, the goat herders, so that's been in
Speaker 3: my rotation here.
Speaker 1: I'm on the trendy train.
Speaker 4: I am.
Speaker 1: I am on the trendy train.
Speaker 3: It's true, man, I am all about it.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter whatever design.
Speaker 3: You know, you talk about fashion, You've got you know,
Speaker 3: different fashion design whatever.
Speaker 4: I'm there.
Speaker 3: I'm like Hollywood glam, I'm mid section, mid century modern whatever.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't even know what those terms mean, by the way,
Speaker 3: but I just said them. So that was the new
Speaker 3: hat there, very very very exciting. And when I wore
Speaker 3: the hat, I drove into the studio in Los Angeles,
Speaker 3: so you could say, Danny I was dodging two bullets
Speaker 3: while I was doing that, depending on what neighborhood in
Speaker 3: Los Angeles I was driving through to get too said
Speaker 3: studio to do the show. In a very nice neighborhood
Speaker 3: that surprisingly has some very strange people late at night
Speaker 3: when I'm doing the show walking around Ben.
Speaker 4: When you think of Disney resorts, you don't usually think
Speaker 4: about death or near death experiences.
Speaker 1: That's not usually in the brochure that they know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, I don't think anybody's died
Speaker 4: on the Dumbo ride. Last week on vacation, we're in
Speaker 4: the hotel room and my wife was changing little Koha.
Speaker 4: These beds were high and I told my wife he
Speaker 4: went I noticed it. I said, boy, we better keep
Speaker 4: a hawkeye on the little one because you know, he's
Speaker 4: moving at the speed of light right now. He's like
Speaker 4: Usain Bolt. You turn your head and he's five rolls
Speaker 4: away from you. He's damn near crawling right now. And
Speaker 4: he does this thing, this ninja move where if you
Speaker 4: think back to the Karate Kid, one of the punks
Speaker 4: that Daniel fought in the competition and did that spider
Speaker 4: slide on his back, co has been doing that. Well.
Speaker 4: She was changing him. She went to grab a diaper
Speaker 4: off the dresser there in the hotel room, and all
Speaker 4: I hear was bunk and then a baby screaming. He
Speaker 4: rolled his butt off the bed, took a dive. I
Speaker 4: think it was God looking out for us Ben because
Speaker 4: he landed flush on his back.
Speaker 1: He didn't mess.
Speaker 4: Oh thank god. I mean, had his head hit first
Speaker 4: or his body hit first, it would have been completely
Speaker 4: bad news, which would have ruined the trip. So you know,
Speaker 4: we pick him up. I think it just scared him
Speaker 4: more than anything. And that's the first time he's ever
Speaker 4: rolled off of bed, and I'm thinking, Man, bad timing here.
Speaker 4: We're trying to have fun on a vacation and this
Speaker 4: kid trying to scare the shit out of us. Fast
Speaker 4: forward to two days later, my wife he goes on
Speaker 4: the Lazy River with her oldest and they leave me
Speaker 4: in charge of Koa in the hotel room. So I
Speaker 4: do this thing where I pile up all his toys
Speaker 4: and he sits up. I prop pillows around him so
Speaker 4: that it's almost like a little fort About an hour
Speaker 4: into playing with toys, he got, you know, like all
Speaker 4: of us, He's like, yeah, what's next. I'm bored with this.
Speaker 4: And I could tell he wanted to stretch, he wanted
Speaker 4: to roll around. I don't want to put him on
Speaker 4: the hotel floor, so I put him right in the
Speaker 4: middle of the bed and I'm like, all right, dude,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna let you roll, but I'm gonna watch you.
Speaker 4: You know you ain't going on the floor again. Ben,
Speaker 4: This little dude did the backslide like a spider. I
Speaker 4: saw it all happening in slow emotion, right before my eyes.
Speaker 4: He slid down the side of the bed. I dove.
Speaker 4: I grabbed him by the waist and was able to
Speaker 4: move his head away from hitting the lip of the
Speaker 4: bed frame. But he was like somebody parachuting and you
Speaker 4: know when they land on their legs really hard. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: that's what he did. Oh boy, he's screaming, bloody murder.
Speaker 4: Holy shit, did he break a leg? Did his fat
Speaker 4: thunder thigh save him?
Speaker 1: Yes? Wow.
Speaker 4: I get him to calm down, and you know, it
Speaker 4: seemed like his legs were a little sore, but no damage.
Speaker 4: About twenty thirty minutes later, he was smiling and playing
Speaker 4: and I was like, man, not only did we dodge
Speaker 4: one bullet, we dodged two bullets. Him rolling off the
Speaker 4: bed twice on the trip, and he avoided injuries both times.
Speaker 4: But now I'm traumatized because anytime my girl has had
Speaker 4: him on the bed even to change them. I go
Speaker 4: over and I like hold him, I pin him down,
Speaker 4: like dude, you ain't moving a little wiggleworhim.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's well, isn't that?
Speaker 3: Remember the comedian I forget who it was probably even
Speaker 3: more than one comedian, and his whole routine was like
Speaker 3: a kid for the first couple of years. Your only
Speaker 3: job is to keep them alive, keep them from killing themselves, right,
Speaker 3: that's pretty much it keep them putting their fingers in
Speaker 3: electrical sockets or you know, falling off beds. You brought
Speaker 3: up the hotel thing, and according to the National Fall
Speaker 3: Safety Institute, I have no idea what that is.
Speaker 1: It sounds important.
Speaker 3: The National Fall Safety Institute, there was a study done
Speaker 3: that claimed hotel injuries accidents at hotels lead to over
Speaker 3: seven million emergency room business have led to over seven
Speaker 3: hundred million or seven million emergency visits and at least
Speaker 3: thirty six thousand every year.
Speaker 4: Damn. You know.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of hotels though, too, And.
Speaker 4: I think part of it is probably because you're not
Speaker 4: used to your surroundings the way you are at home.
Speaker 3: Well, and a couple of years, he will then treat
Speaker 3: the bed like a professional wrestling ring brother, and or
Speaker 3: the floor is lava, and that'll be another fun thing
Speaker 3: when you go to hotels. Right the next my niece
Speaker 3: broke her nose. They were playing on the bed, jumping
Speaker 3: up and down, and they boom and had some mother.
Speaker 4: I always have heard parents tell stories about their kids
Speaker 4: falling off beds, and I thought to myself at the time,
Speaker 4: how could you allow that to happen? Now I know
Speaker 4: because when it was on my watch, he did it
Speaker 4: right in front of my face.
Speaker 1: That's wild. So you did. You did dodge a couple
Speaker 1: bullets there, you did.
Speaker 3: How was the food situation in Hawaii this weekended you
Speaker 3: or not this weekend last week when.
Speaker 4: You were the week Yeah, you know, it was good.
Speaker 4: It was resort food most of the time, super expensive,
Speaker 4: but we expected that. You know, everything has to be
Speaker 4: imported to the islands, obviously, so there's a huge markup,
Speaker 4: and then it's a tourist trap on top of that.
Speaker 4: So a couple of times we went to store plazas
Speaker 4: where more of the locals were hanging out, found some
Speaker 4: good food. And then there were there was the one
Speaker 4: incident with the Mexican restaurant, which maybe I could touch
Speaker 4: on Tomorrow on Tomorrow's podcast, which was a bad meal.
Speaker 4: But other than that, good food, good sunshine. There was
Speaker 4: rain half the time, but the sun would shine for
Speaker 4: twenty minutes. It would rain for twenty minutes, back and forth.
Speaker 4: Off the air, you were telling me Miami and parts
Speaker 4: of Florida are kind of like that when it was
Speaker 4: tropical and the sun was shining. Oh man, it felt
Speaker 4: really good. It was rejuvenating.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Miami.
Speaker 3: I've only been there once, but I was in Miami
Speaker 3: and they would rain in the afternoon. It's one of
Speaker 3: the reasons, like the baseball team, they didn't have a
Speaker 3: dome when the Marlins started playing there.
Speaker 1: Now they have a dome.
Speaker 3: But they started playing like they'd always have rain delays
Speaker 3: because it it would just pass through in the evening time.
Speaker 3: There'd be evening showers for like an hour or whatever,
Speaker 3: and then they'd play it out and be able to
Speaker 3: play the game.
Speaker 1: Somebody reindoler it was a pain. Pain in the ass.
Speaker 3: So large and in charge, Large and in charge the
Speaker 3: one hundred most obese cities in the United States, according
Speaker 3: to a new study. You want to guess where the
Speaker 3: biggest heifers.
Speaker 1: Are, Let's do. We won't do it, and we don't
Speaker 1: do list. We do not do list.
Speaker 4: No, No, I think I know the answer to this though.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 4: I ate at a diner in Idaho, and I have
Speaker 4: never seen so many large people in my life.
Speaker 1: I know I am looking here. I do not see Idaho.
Speaker 4: Really. Even my cousin noticed it right away. Inside this diner,
Speaker 4: it was like, man, and all these people in here
Speaker 4: look like they are packing the potatoes.
Speaker 1: All right, So let's get into this. This is a
Speaker 1: study done. Let me see who did this.
Speaker 3: Wallet Hub measured several lifestyle factors, including activial level, heart disease, diabetes,
Speaker 3: and access to healthy foods to determine which of the
Speaker 3: country is lacking.
Speaker 1: And then there's some other crap in here.
Speaker 3: Let's just do top Ten's see if you can you
Speaker 3: get any You think how many of the top ten
Speaker 3: do you think you'll get on the big board?
Speaker 4: Danny, Ah, well, probably probably three.
Speaker 1: So you think you can get three. That's a three
Speaker 1: hundred batting average, you go to the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3: Yeah, gain three. Okay, So here we go. We're gonna
Speaker 3: play the game here and you can play along. Listening
Speaker 3: to the podcast, The Top Ten most obese cities in America, Danny,
Speaker 3: how many guesses do you get here?
Speaker 2: Dan?
Speaker 1: What are we looking at here?
Speaker 4: So not states? These are cities.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, these are cities.
Speaker 3: I will tell you that they are all pretty much
Speaker 3: in the same region of the country.
Speaker 1: Okay, so there's that.
Speaker 4: Oh I'm going to start by saying Chicago.
Speaker 3: Is not in the top twenty. Forget the top ten.
Speaker 3: They're not in the top twenty.
Speaker 4: So all right, are you thinking of the famous snl
Speaker 4: skit where the Chicago Bears fans are sitting around the Bears.
Speaker 1: Stop Bears, the Bears, not Chicago. There are fat people
Speaker 1: in Chicago. I love Chicago.
Speaker 4: Good where your brother? How about where your brother lives
Speaker 4: in Wisconsin?
Speaker 3: A lot of fat people in Wisconsin. Not on the
Speaker 3: top ten.
Speaker 4: Oh my god?
Speaker 1: Oh for two? Oh for two? Wrong again, idiot, Well
Speaker 1: you're in Nashville.
Speaker 3: Over in Chattanooga. Chattanooga, Tennessee is number ten. Spoiler alert.
Speaker 3: Most of these are in the south. Chattanooga, Tennessee. Baton
Speaker 3: RUMs Louisiana is number nine. Yeah, some savory food there.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Lafayette, Louisiana is number eight. Memphis, Tennessee another Tennessee, but not. Nashville,
Speaker 3: Memphis is number seven. Knoxville, Tennessee is number six. Chicken
Speaker 3: Baby good, Southern food, big portions, Little Rock, Arkansas. But
Speaker 3: this is an attack on the south. This is a
Speaker 3: shot at the south below the Mason Dixon line. Little Rock,
Speaker 3: Arkansas number five, Mobile Alabama, Mobile Alabama, number four.
Speaker 4: Yeah, some of these are towns I didn't even think about.
Speaker 4: Yeah about southern towns.
Speaker 3: Tree Port, Louisiana is number three. So you got that
Speaker 3: on there. Jackson, Mississippi at number two. Think of that
Speaker 3: Johnny Cash song about Jackson. And the number.
Speaker 1: Number one.
Speaker 3: We go to the great State of Texas. McCallen, Texas
Speaker 3: is number one. That is on the southern border with Mexico,
Speaker 3: and it scored an eighty five point five out of
Speaker 3: one hundred and nearly half of.
Speaker 1: The adults or obese.
Speaker 3: It's a city of one hundred and forty four thousand,
Speaker 3: and it has high rates of heart disease and diabetes
Speaker 3: and all of that. So congratulations to McCallum, McCallum, Texas,
Speaker 3: you're number one.
Speaker 1: So the math, let me do the math on that.
Speaker 3: So one hundred and forty four thousand, so that means
Speaker 3: there are seventy two thousand fat people.
Speaker 1: There is half well I said nearly half, so maybe
Speaker 1: not exactly seventy two, but a lot, but a lot,
Speaker 1: you know. But the obese thing, the what's the measurement
Speaker 1: they use? The get the term? I think there's people
Speaker 1: they say that are a beasts that I don't think
Speaker 1: are obese. You know, you know what I mean? Like
Speaker 1: the the fat what's the measurement they use?
Speaker 4: If oh, the doctor punches you in the gut and
Speaker 4: sees how much it jiggles.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like jello. That's a pain in.
Speaker 4: The mister, g you're really jiggling in this visit.
Speaker 1: Pain in the keyster time.
Speaker 3: Now for the phrase all of the week, not to
Speaker 3: be confused with the word the week or the idiom
Speaker 3: of the week. This is the phrase of the week.
Speaker 1: Phrase of the.
Speaker 3: Phrase of the week is rule of thumb. Rule of
Speaker 3: thumb is the phrase of the week. And you might
Speaker 3: have heard this over the years, but yeah, it has
Speaker 3: a very dark, very dark meaning. It goes back to
Speaker 3: the seventeen hundred. You can trace it back to the
Speaker 3: seventeen hundreds. In England there was a judge named Sir
Speaker 3: Francis Buehler, Bruehler. Buehler, Sir Francis Bueller. And in seventeen
Speaker 3: eighty two, this guy determined, he said, you know what,
Speaker 3: if you're married, as a husband, you are legally allowed
Speaker 3: to beat the shit out of your wife, provided that
Speaker 3: you use a stick that is no winder, no wider
Speaker 3: than the thumb. So as long as you do that,
Speaker 3: you're good. That became the rule of thumb. So the
Speaker 3: rule of thumb is, what if you have a really
Speaker 3: wide finger, Danny, Like, what if what if your finger
Speaker 3: is like the size of a baseball bat?
Speaker 4: Like what?
Speaker 3: I don't know what you do with that? But that
Speaker 3: is kind of crazy, isn't it. That's wild that that
Speaker 3: became part of the lexicon, the rule of thumb, all
Speaker 3: because of.
Speaker 4: I would have never thought it came from violence, from
Speaker 4: domestic violence.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I thought it was like, you know how you measure
Speaker 3: with Sometimes with your thumb, you'll measure something small.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. You go with your hand like
Speaker 4: one hand, two, okay, that's thre three hands there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I know this is this is all about
Speaker 1: beaten beating up your wife with a stick. As long
Speaker 1: as it's just the size of your thumb, you're good.
Speaker 3: You're imagine that that judge must have been quite the
Speaker 3: quite the fun hang out with.
Speaker 4: Right instead of the racist drop and play the sexist
Speaker 4: drop right now?
Speaker 1: Yes sexist?
Speaker 3: Uh, let's do a little pop goes the culture. You
Speaker 3: got a little time left? So that means ohio.
Speaker 1: Jug jug.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 3: Quite the story this week, dan It said, developing story
Speaker 3: and didn't talk too much about this on the podcast because.
Speaker 1: I'm not on this platform.
Speaker 3: But a lot of outrage as the United States government
Speaker 3: closing in on a ban some legislation to ban the
Speaker 3: social media app TikTok, and a number of people the
Speaker 3: reactions have been over the top. I'm not sure if
Speaker 3: this came up on Covino and Rich, but TikTokers based
Speaker 3: in America venting their frustrations at the United States Senate
Speaker 3: as they are closing in on this ban for the app.
Speaker 3: These are people that are making hundreds of thousands, millions
Speaker 3: of dollars off TikTok, and they're freaking out. The content creators,
Speaker 3: they're worried they're going to be forced to wait for
Speaker 3: this return to a nine to five job, freaking out
Speaker 3: you have to get a real.
Speaker 1: Job, and they're losing their mind. I don't understand.
Speaker 3: I'm not TikTok. I don't know what's behind this. I've
Speaker 3: read some of the stories. My eyeballs when I get
Speaker 3: bug eyed when I see some of this stuff. But
Speaker 3: it's essentially the Chinese government's tracking everything. And my interpretation,
Speaker 3: Danny is, and I've said this before, it's like they
Speaker 3: don't have a problem if the US government is tracking you,
Speaker 3: but if China is tracking you, that's a problem. They're
Speaker 3: gonna put their foot down on that. Like if you
Speaker 3: have a smartphone, you're being tracked. If you use apps,
Speaker 3: you're being tracked. Like everything's being trapped track even when
Speaker 3: you say you're not. And I get that they have
Speaker 3: a problem with China and all that, but the tracking
Speaker 3: thing in and of itself is not the problem. And
Speaker 3: so Senate's trying to force a split from the people
Speaker 3: in China that own TikTok and all that. But if
Speaker 3: you're riddle me this, Danny, if you're on TikTok and
Speaker 3: you're a.
Speaker 1: Creator, I love that. We're creators, right, we're creating audio, right, we're.
Speaker 4: Creators, We're content creators. We just keep our clothes on
Speaker 4: because nobody wants to see us naked.
Speaker 3: Yeah, wouldn't that be great if there was an only
Speaker 3: fans that would pay a lot of money for radio
Speaker 3: only fans. Anyway, if you're a TikToker, wouldn't you just
Speaker 3: go to go to like Instagram or something like like
Speaker 3: what's the big deal? Couldn't you go to another platform
Speaker 3: and find a way to make money? If your content
Speaker 3: is that good, wouldn't you be able to get money
Speaker 3: on other platforms?
Speaker 1: I don't understand, I'm not that bright.
Speaker 4: Well, I think it's probably because they've already built up
Speaker 4: their following on TikTok and that's what the kiddies use,
Speaker 4: the younger generation uses most, so there's not an equivalent
Speaker 4: to that right now.
Speaker 3: Well, we had a on popcost the culture. We had
Speaker 3: an international outrage incident involving a priest, but not involving
Speaker 3: a young boy. Uh priest sparking outrage. She decided that
Speaker 3: the church needed to be dressed up a little bit, right,
Speaker 3: that's kind of want to you want to keep the
Speaker 3: people coming there, and you need to spruce up the
Speaker 3: church a little bit.
Speaker 1: Not that great, right, you know? Why not?
Speaker 3: And so this this jackass decided, you know what, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna do.
Speaker 1: I am going to touch some things up here.
Speaker 3: A guy named Hector Lunar is his name, and he
Speaker 3: ended up painting over a three hundred year old painting
Speaker 3: that had heritage status to dress up the church. It
Speaker 3: seemed like a good idea to me, but he went
