But 167 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: that contributes to an overall sense of dread, which is 168 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: the goal of that movie. So yeah, like I can't 169 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: watch that scene now and not have that reaction, Like 170 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: you definitely raise yourself. Yeah, I'm also like a little 171 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: bitter about having my emotions manipulated, which I understand is 172 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 1: like the point, which is the whole point.

Probably Sunshine Cleaning or a Little Sunshine 179 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 1: anything Anything. One is like the movie Sunshine Emily Blunt 180 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: movie where there they are crime scene clean up people 181 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: who are also sisters.

Do 185 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,599 Speaker 1: so do you look up spoilers to like regular TV? No, 186 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: I'm less likely to do it for TV because I 187 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 1: think maybe I care more about to be Also, I 188 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: have more invested in sort of character development TV, whereas 189 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: with movies, like because it's so much shorter, you're like 190 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:26,199 Speaker 1: on an expedited, accelerated track. Yeah, for sure. What is 191 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: something you think is overrated? Christmas? I think Christmas is 192 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 1: extremely overrated? Wow? Yeah, you and I are not like that? 193 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: Oh my god? Is that against Um? It's against Christ? Yes? 194 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 1: Christ Mass? Christmas? Um? What is it about it? Like? 195 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,199 Speaker 1: You just don't like the think it's a lot of 196 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: I think the whole season right, because it goes from 197 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:54,719 Speaker 1: like November one until like just the whole season is 198 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: so wrapped up in expectation and also like capitalism andsm 199 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: and it's it's horrible, and it makes you feel like, uh, 200 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,599 Speaker 1: if you don't have family, if you don't have a 201 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: place to go during those months, right, it makes you 202 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 1: feel like you're not included in the sort of sentiment 203 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: of the season. Right. And it's really just about like 204 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: performatively showing your family how much you love them, even 205 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: if you can't actually stand them, you know. And it 206 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: requires like a lot of travel that I personally find 207 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: pretty stressful. I'm definitely too selfish to take those expectations 208 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: on because when it's Christias and I'm like, this is 209 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 1: my excuse to dress like fuck like sweatpants all day 210 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: and watch a bunch of dumb fucking You're like reclaiming 211 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: it for self care. Yeah. Yeah. Whereas I have like 212 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 1: family all over the place, I'm like running around to 213 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: make everybody happy and like show up to everybody's Christmas, right, 214 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: And that's you know, I think that's my privilege, with 215 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,199 Speaker 1: my dad's side of the family being pretty centrally in 216 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 1: Los Angeles and then my mom everyone on that side 217 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: lives in Japan. Yeah, and they don't look with Christmas, 218 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: so It's not like they're like, you're not coming for Christmas, 219 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: but the New Years are like, wait, you do go 220 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: over to Japan because because New Year's is a big 221 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:09,959 Speaker 1: holiday and I like to see everybody and you know, 222 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,719 Speaker 1: checking on my my aunts and stuff. Yeah. I do 223 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 1: think that probably not having anywhere to travel besides the 224 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: coolest place to travel to probably helps with your Christmas. 225 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: You don't just think of Santa Claus because he needs 226 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: some milk, but drop that's what I want to go 227 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 1: with those cookies. Yeah, you know he needs some milk. 228 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm abusing the soundboard right Nowlarry, is there 229 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: a holiday you really like? No? I have a similar 230 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: feelings around the years, right. I like Halloween a lot. 231 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: I feel like I can funk with Halloween movies. There's 232 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 1: like a lot of camp involved. Yeah yeah, what about No? 233 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,719 Speaker 1: The other ones are just drinking holidays. Yeah, I'm not 234 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 1: also like not a big drinker. I'm just I'm not 235 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: really a holiday of person, do you uh? And you 236 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: have to travel back to is your family still in Albany? 237 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: So this is really about Albany and sort of sort 238 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: of my mom moved to old small town in South 239 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 1: Carolina and my sister lives with her husband in like 240 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: rural New Hampshire. Yes, so it's I'm traveling to a 241 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: lot of red on the highlights. It's a lot of 242 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: And it's just I have a very complicated relationship with 243 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: it because it's I come from like a fairly conservative family, 244 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: and so in l A, I get to mouth off 245 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: like all day long about things that I believe, and 246 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: then I go home and I have to like button 247 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: up a little bit through your tongue exactly you're coming 248 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: out of your mouth. Yeah, I'm bleeding from the mouth. Really, 249 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: I'm sorry about the feudal immigration crisis. Yeah, absolutely. Uh. 250 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: And finally, what's a myth? What's something people think is 251 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: true you know, to be false or vice versa. Um. 252 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: I think the myth that like, with enough hard work, 253 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: anything is possible is like sort of a toxic one, right, 254 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: because it's just it's a ratio of privilege and a 255 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: it's also specifically like in entertainment, it's a rature of 256 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: how often, uh, just like being in the right place 257 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: at the right time comes into it. And it's also 258 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: it's sort of like undermines actual hard work because you 259 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: can get into a cycle where you think that you're 260 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: not doing enough. So I think that's one and all. Yeah, No, 261 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: I think that is one of the biggest and most 262 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: pervasive and toxic myths in the United States. Yeah. Yeah, 263 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: it's also it's a crazy pervasive idea that I think, 264 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: can you can internalize and then uh like weaponize against 265 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: yourself and some pretty harmful ways. Yeah. And then you know, 266 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: people like Steve Jobs as biographers and like all all 267 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: the people who write this who tell the story of 268 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: like huge accomplishments in American history just right, the people 269 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: who helped them and all the all the privilege and 270 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: head starts that they had, they just write those things out. Absolutely, 271 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: people get screwed over, and it ends up giving us 272 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: this ideology of like like where where I don't know, 273 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: like the way I was raised, Like culturally, I feel 274 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:15,479 Speaker 1: like like collectivism is like so foreign to my mindset, 275 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: and that's I think that's a bad thing. Yeah, I 276 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: think absolutely. I think specifically Americans maybe have a hard 277 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: time with um like collaboration the goal in and of itself, 278 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: And that's something I had to learn in working with TV. 279 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: It's like your ideas are not paramount and nor will 280 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: they ever be. The paramount is the collective, right, It's 281 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: about like what we can all do to mold and 282 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: to punch up this one thing that we're working on together. 283 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: And that's sort of like a that's sort of like 284 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: a separate topic from like you on your personal endeavors, 285 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: thinking that if you work as hard as you can 286 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: and like burn the candle at both ends, you'll eventually 287 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: get what you want, which is sort of like setting 288 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: yourself up for disappointment and not taking into consideration the 289 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: fact that people are starting at different points. Yeah. Yeah, uh, 290 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: my bootstraps broke off too hard. Yeah, luckily someone just 291 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: discovering me on the street. Yeah, I mean, give me 292 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 1: this podcast. The idea of pulling yourself up by your 293 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: bootstraps is physical. Yeah, it doesn't make sense, but I 294 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: think the original idea of like, well, yeah, just pull 295 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: yourself up by your bootstraps, it was that that's impossible, 296 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 1: that you need people to help you, and it's an 297 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: idiom we all got wrong, right, Yeah, Yeah, there's tons 298 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: of those two. Yeah, I don't I love thinking about 299 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 1: that that somebody was saying it's sarcastic. Ye, think about that. 300 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: How are you going to pull yourself up by your bootstrap. 301 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: That's my impression with somebody pulling themselves up by their bootstraps, 302 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: I think it's said. Well, they're like, I mean, people 303 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: clearly research this a lot because they're like, what is 304 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: the origin of it? Because it refers, of course to 305 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: boots and the straps that some boots have attached to 306 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 1: help the wear pull them on, and to the imagined 307 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: feet of lifting oneself off the ground. Is not good 308 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: at finding origins of venue. Yeah, they just have so 309 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: many false leads. It's just like, I'm trying to think 310 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 1: of what you could say now that is just as 311 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 1: like completely devoid of any kind of like logic or 312 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,239 Speaker 1: science behind it of lift physically pulling yourself anyway, it's 313 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: sort of like the ultimate platitude, right yeah, right, It's 314 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: enough to get you thinking and then the second but wait, 315 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: that doesn't track my bootstraps, like saying time takes time. Yeah, 316 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: just like no ship. But don't done that. Uh, let's 317 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: talk about Chernobyl selfies, guys, did what does that mean? Chernobyl? 318 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: People are going to Chernobyl following you know, people like 319 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: to go to real life locations from their favorite TV 320 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: shows and takes selfies like the Signfeld coffee Shop, the 321 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: Tanner House in San Francisco, Chernobyl because there was that 322 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: HBO series that we're still discussing in detail. Because I'm 323 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: waiting for Miles to watch, I will watch it this 324 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 1: weekend over I have I have time stocked away to 325 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: go into a very dark place.

It's when I went 369 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: to Emerson College in Boston. There's like a famous museum there, 370 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 1: and two kids were kind having sex inside. No, yea 371 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: in the fucking museum.

Well, 379 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: I think this is why. So for example, this is one. 380 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: Um again, this woman looks really cute.

I think this means like 408 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: planking on the infamous railway tracks. That's what you should be, 409 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: honestly like. But so this this makes me like, this 410 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: makes me despair for you guys, this generation over but yourself. 411 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 1: Z Okay, oh yeah, you probably are. You know, I'm not. 412 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: I'm the last year three generations. But this is actually 413 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: something like our writer jam McNabb was pointing out that 414 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 1: there's like souvenir stands all over Chernobyl, like fridge magnets, 415 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: radioactive ice cream, canned air. There's a canned air. Yeah, 416 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: there's a tea shirt radioactive Wolf Chernobyl. Uh. And then 417 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: the world's most depressing snow globe. It's a snow globe 418 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: of the factory, but then the snow is black, so yeah, 419 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: it looks like yeah, fun, fun gift, fun Christmas gift. Yeah. Yeah, 420 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: so we've been We've been terrible since the beginning, I think. Yeah. Well, 421 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: also the invention of the nine eleven souvenirs, and in 422 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: every place that deals with money, any capitalist place is 423 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: going to monetize anything as we monetize. If we think 424 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: about like the onslaught of true crime documentaries and pedophiliate 425 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 1: doccumentaries like we are we are not, we are almost 426 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 1: constantly trafficking in tragedy. So it's not this is like 427 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: two steps away from that, you know. Yeah, I feel 428 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 1: like some true crime at least you can tell yourself 429 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: you're trying to create meaning from like the truth of 430 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: the situation, whereas snow globe doesn't create as much meaning. 431 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: But maybe it does to some people. I don't know. 432 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think at the end of the day, 433 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 1: like you're using this awful ship and the trauma of 434 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 1: other people to be like you won't see some It's 435 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: basically you won't see a dead body. And imagine if 436 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 1: that dead body was your mother, you'd before you would 437 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: be fighting people. I put the funk out of here. 438 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 1: But again, you know, please have respect at the very 439 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: least at memorials. If you want to do some wild 440 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: at the Statue of Liberty, fine, yeah, you know, but when. 441 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, I gotta do 442 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 1: it for the likes. That's the culture for the Graham. 443 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: All Right, we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be 444 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: right back, and we're back and real quick. Donald Trump 445 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: has liked his first tweet in years. Uh. He's very 446 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,640 Speaker 1: active on Twitter, but he doesn't like things because he's 447 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: I guess dead and empty on the inside. But uh, 448 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 1: the so he liked a tweet and I'm just gonna 449 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: read it to you guys. Uh.

And then it's 452 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: a screen cap of a quote from Rihanna that includes 453 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,040 Speaker 1: the phrase, just like I nurtured my business, and you 454 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: didn't nurture personal time as well. Rihanna told Paulson, I'll 455 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: shut things down for two days, three days at a time. 456 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: On my calendar. We now have the infamous P which 457 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: means personal days. This is a new thing, so it's 458 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: presidential time.

It 465 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: says please after several typos, he's just not presidential material. 466 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: It's like in response to something I think George Popa 467 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: was no. Trump tweeted he liked dude his tweet. He 468 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: likes his own twenty cents Donald Trump. Before that, Donald 469 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: Trump issues statement on Ted Cruise birth certificate, and it's 470 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 1: like a photo of him saying Nixon was a quitter. 471 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: I've done twice the bad stuff he did, but you 472 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: won't see me resigning. Cool. Okay, Yeah, so maybe not 473 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: the best way to gauge in his inner life, but yeah, 474 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: it's just it's just good good to know.

He's definitely aging, 481 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: the least of any president in the history of the president, 482 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,479 Speaker 1: of course, because he's making it work for him at 483 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: the detriment of the rest of the country. The humans 484 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: so incredibly aged, so it's hard to heighten that he 485 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: does have all sorts of smoking mirrors worked out.

And right in 516 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: two thousand and sixteen, the US it just falls off 517 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: a cliff really d more pronounced yeah, interesting, boy, well, 518 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, let's see what happens next year. Can 519 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: you imagine? Do you think we can go lower? You think, well, 520 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: I guess I think the show is still be around 521 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: if the earth is still around? Uh, will we go 522 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: up or down? Injections? Uh? What can we climb up 523 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: the charts? Do you think we can get Yeah? Yeah, 524 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 1: if we don't elect Donald Trump, well by this point, 525 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: I figure it'll come out around this time next year, 526 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: so we'll still be in office. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I 527 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: think a lot because I think I don't think we've 528 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: even seen the beginning of the fun he can do. Yeah, 529 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: is going to be a nightmare already, it's already a nightmare. 530 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: But if he loses, I don't think he's going to 531 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: leave peacefully. And I don't know. This is something that 532 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: you can like just kind of generally feeling the ether 533 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 1: of like day to day life that you're like if 534 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: you travel abroad and like there's just a sense of 535 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: peacefulness or like you're not physically threatened or that's like 536 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: you don't have to assume one in every twenty people 537 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 1: you've passed is armed. Like there you can like feel 538 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: that and oh yeah, just like your day to day life. 539 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: It's wild when you go to countries like that and 540 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: you're like, damn, there's no like collective tension, Like you 541 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: just step off and you're like, there's a tangible dread American. Anyways, 542 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: let's talk poliosis. Yeah, uh, let's that's a new segment 543 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: we're gonna do talking about the pulse um and and 544 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: also scoliosis awareness. But yeah, so politically, just did a 545 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: new poll testing people on these hypothetical head to head 546 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: matchups just to see kind of okay, like if it 547 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: was today, who's gonna win? Oh man and not good 548 00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: for Trump. But again, we don't know what this really 549 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: means because it's still what fucking eighteen months away, Yeah, 550 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: our thirteen months whatever it is. So head to head 551 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: Biden and Trump percent said they would choose a former 552 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 1: vice president said they'd vote for Trump, Um said undecided 553 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: against Sanders forty two percent against Trump who had UM 554 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: and then against Elizabeth the warrant against Elizabeth Warren statistical tie. 555 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: Then even when you go down to some of the 556 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: other candidates like Kamala Harris and Corey Booker better or 557 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: work Um, they're like just small leads, nothing significant. And 558 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: you know this uh. They also note that in any 559 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: and all of these matchups, Trump never got over thirty 560 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: three percent, even though some of these Democrats Democratic candidates 561 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: were getting into the forties. And you know, there's a 562 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: couple of things to keep in mind. Biden is not 563 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: going to keep this momentum of the whole time as 564 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 1: people put him up next to other people, and they're 565 00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: gonna be like, say words about your beliefs this time, 566 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: being like landy presidential in people's memories is not something 567 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: that's going to hold up well when I'm not sure 568 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 1: who the funk thinks he's he's going to bring revived 569 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: bipartisanship to d C. Like what again, Like all the 570 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: people he's pointed to is like I worked with so 571 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: and so. I'm like, you're talking about thirty years ago, right, 572 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: this is a new game, baby, they don't play it 573 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 1: just age based people who most of their life was 574 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 1: before it went terrible. And also the other thing you 575 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: know to keep in mind is that people are about 576 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 1: seventy satisfied happy about where the economy is right now. 577 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: Tie the economy to the presidency in a way that 578 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: just is not actually true or reliable, right, Like they 579 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 1: associate the two things, even though they almost never sink 580 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: up and have not so much to do with one. 581 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 1: An it's weird they'll connect it when it doesn't need 582 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: to be and then not make the connection when it's 583 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 1: absolutely imperative that you understand that there's no connection there. 584 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: Like I remember, like you know, Obama came in there like, well, 585 00:34:58,200 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: well look what he did the economy, but he just 586 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: start like, that's not how the economy works. Shift just 587 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 1: started and he came in with a mop and was 588 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: like what the funk happened in here? Very similarly when 589 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 1: Trump got an office and people like, oh, the economy 590 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 1: is turning around, but that's because of Obama's policy, Like 591 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: if we wait a few more months and see what 592 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: happens with the tariffs, it's going to go down, right. 593 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: And now you have Trump being like, okay, we'll look 594 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: at the economy. Now. Now he's really trying to make 595 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,799 Speaker 1: that connection. I mean, so we'll see what like if 596 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I doubt he's going to actually kind of 597 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: have any kind of coherent messaging around like how good 598 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 1: he is. Yeah, I'm actually very interested to see like 599 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: what his campaign because it looks like at this point 600 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: there's no other Republican nominee. But like, I'm very interested 601 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,720 Speaker 1: to see what the Trump campaign looks like going forward, 602 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,320 Speaker 1: specifically because right now, pretty much any of the Democratic 603 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: candidates could run against him, and we could have an 604 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 1: election and it would be competitive, which is saying a lot, 605 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: because they're like people running. Yeah, so many. Well that's 606 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 1: why the you know, we'll see those two debates. It 607 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 1: will be two days of debates just to fit in 608 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 1: like those twenty people that actually get in. The Other 609 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: thing though, too, looking at a lot of the stories 610 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: around this polling is that, you know, this isn't good news. 611 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: Especially on top of that, there's even more polling that 612 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: was showing that he's losing his grip on some of 613 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,680 Speaker 1: those swing states that delivered him those electoral votes. Um. 614 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: And this is from the New York Times said quote. 615 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 1: After being briefed on a devastating seventeen state poll conducted 616 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,280 Speaker 1: by his campaign poster Tony Fabrizio, Mr Trump told aids 617 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: to deny that his internal polling showed him trailing Mr 618 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: Biden in many of the states he needs to win, 619 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: even though he is also trailing in public polls from 620 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 1: key states like Texas, Michigan and Pennsylvania UM. And when 621 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 1: the top line details of the polling leaked, including numbers 622 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: showing the president lagging in a cluster of critical restbelt states, 623 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: Mr Trump instructed AIDS to say publicly that other data 624 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: showed him doing well. Also, Democrats have about a six 625 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: point lead on a generic congressional ballot, So yeah, I mean, 626 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 1: oh boy, this is what I'm saying, Like, there's a 627 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 1: lot of ship going against him. At the same time, 628 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 1: the only incumbent to lose an election was George H. W. Bush, 629 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,839 Speaker 1: and that was when the economy went to ship um. 630 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 1: At the on the other hand, at this point during 631 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:12,839 Speaker 1: his presidency, George H. W. Bush's approval was plus fifty six. 632 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: Trump's is minus eleven right now. So hey, man, you 633 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: know chin up? Chin's up? My man, I don't I 634 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: stopped tweet I used to just ask him if he 635 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 1: eats pieces of ship for breakfast every time he tweeted. 636 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: But it was too much not didn't it old I'm 637 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: very juvenile and I'll die doing a terrible bit. Uh Yeah, 638 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 1: I just didn't have the energy to keep up with 639 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 1: all the ship that it was being tweeted. But yeah, 640 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: I think Again, that also points to when you look 641 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,800 Speaker 1: at this, right, he's losing those pieces of the puzzle 642 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 1: that helped to keep him in office, which keeps the 643 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: threat of all his legal troubles you know at bay um. 644 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 1: And that's why I'm curious, like as because clearly, like 645 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 1: when you read things like this, he's now in that 646 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 1: part where he's slowly entering the denial phase of being like, 647 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 1: m like, don't tell me that, I don't want to know. 648 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: But and then that's what I'm curious to see. As 649 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 1: things become more desperate, how even more desperate, that kind 650 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 1: of should he'll do to distract and try and keep 651 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: some kind of hold. And again, as he said before, 652 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: he's always talked about, he's teased going to war as 653 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 1: a way to stay in office. And that is frightening thought. Yeah, 654 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 1: I mean that is why bush One's approval was so 655 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: high at that time. It's because he just started a 656 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: war because the media at the time was calling him 657 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: a whimp literally, right, and go to him into it 658 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:35,800 Speaker 1: and show you whim. I'll show you whimp to some 659 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: war crimes. Let's talk about at week, guys, we we 660 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: look to them for any you know, reporting about millennials 661 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: and young people in general. At Week generally has their 662 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: finger on the pulse. Yeah. Uh, so they published an article. 663 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna read the headline and subhead too. It's 664 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 1: so aggravated this whole that this is even an article 665 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: on ad Week. Yes, why targeting millennial consumers might not 666 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: be such a hot idea after all. And then subhead, 667 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: a growing body of evidence shows why gen y consumers 668 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 1: aren't ideal because many of them are broke, that's the subhead. So, uh, 669 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 1: they're ruining We're ruining everything because we're broke and can't 670 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 1: buy anything. But then I like even how ad week 671 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: is like, here's the deal. They're the problem because they're broke. 672 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:35,399 Speaker 1: Otherwise the consumer machine could run fine if they weren't. Yeah, 673 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 1: it's really interesting to read all these things that we've 674 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,239 Speaker 1: known are true and have talked about for the past 675 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: two years, but written from the perspective of like a consumerist, 676 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: like advocate earlier. You know. So they're they're talking about 677 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 1: how this new survey of four thousand American consumers determined that, 678 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, millennials are just not spending as much money 679 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: on random ship basically, And then they said the problem 680 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,800 Speaker 1: is not their size, as millennials represent a larger consumer 681 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 1: group than the baby boomers, and it's not the block 682 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: of money they control. Millennials spend about six billion dollars 683 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: a year. Uh. The problem rather is that millennials are 684 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:21,879 Speaker 1: saddled with very larger and unavoidable expenses that reduce their 685 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: spending power when it comes to discretionary purchasing that gets 686 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: marketers so excited, expenses like what they write. Data from 687 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: Deloitte and other sources point to at least two major 688 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,800 Speaker 1: factors that are impeding millennial spending power right now, housing 689 00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: in student debt. What I there more obvious? It's so 690 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:45,840 Speaker 1: weird to hear like a capitalist assessment of the fucking 691 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 1: the machinations of the the terrible ship that happens in 692 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: this stage of capitalism, Like they're the people who sell 693 00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: the ship. And then they're like, huh, we're it's interesting, 694 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: we're noticing that this system that we're perpetuating has led 695 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 1: to this consumer group not having enough money, and now 696 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 1: we're kind of rubbing our chins about it, like right, 697 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: But to have any other take would require self awareness 698 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:09,840 Speaker 1: about their their position in capitalism. Exactly exactly what it 699 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: means to be foisting expectations of expenditure onto your consumers 700 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:18,359 Speaker 1: when your consumers are literally under the thumb of systemic debt, right, 701 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: And it's like if you're trying to eat and survive. 702 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: It's it's like all of those articles about how millennials 703 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,399 Speaker 1: are killing certain industries when in fact those industries don't 704 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 1: exist to serve them and they should be changing their models. Yeah, 705 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:33,399 Speaker 1: if you didn't need a sandwich all the time, you'd 706 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 1: have enough money for a house. Yeah, that is that 707 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: is like an art that really yeah. Yeah, and it 708 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:42,120 Speaker 1: also that's an argument that really like boils my blood 709 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 1: because it's like life is so difficult if you need 710 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,440 Speaker 1: to have a sandwich out do it? Like your nine 711 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 1: dollar sandwich is not going to even the playing field 712 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: as far as generational wealth goes, do you know what 713 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: I mean? Like the people who can buy houses in 714 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 1: Los Angeles are from intergenerational wealth that like, honestly they 715 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: should be redistributing into the community and instead are investing 716 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,759 Speaker 1: in like assets, which is neither here nor there. But 717 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:09,279 Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, it'sh god, and that none of 718 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 1: them ever take the time to say, well, why is 719 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 1: why is someone even forced to decide between a sandwich 720 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: and healthcare. I want to use zoom out a little 721 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 1: bit like the context of the Yeah, it's it's like 722 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 1: an examination of the symptoms that has no lens on 723 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 1: the causey right, It's it's a really important point that 724 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 1: you don't see covered a lot in the media, is 725 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 1: that millennials have, like they spend a lot of money. 726 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 1: It's just they're spending it on things that cost more 727 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: to their generation, housing and student debt, Like student debt 728 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,399 Speaker 1: has gone like the cost of college has gone way 729 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: up compared to previous generations, and so is housing just 730 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 1: erased that all that fucking debt Now, Yeah, I think 731 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 1: like what is actually like necessary as an examination of 732 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 1: like why college costs of risin so exterminately, Like what 733 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,879 Speaker 1: point does it become almost predatory lending, right, like giving 734 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 1: student loans out to eighteen year olds who may be 735 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: like do or do not have a co signer, don't 736 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 1: really know what's going on, making sure that they're like 737 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 1: knowing the difference between federal and private loans. So it's like, 738 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: at what point is that sort of like a predatory 739 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: housing loan? Yeah, Well, and I think that's also just 740 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,880 Speaker 1: I think fundamentally we just also don't. When I think 741 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: about the presidential race, I'm like, I'm more interested in 742 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: candidates who question why things like health and education are 743 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 1: profitable revenue streams for companies rather than like, these are not. 744 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: These aren't things that need to generate revenue exactly. But 745 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: I would argue that under capitalism, there's sort of the 746 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,840 Speaker 1: idea that anything and everything is available for purchase and 747 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:46,240 Speaker 1: available to monetize, and if that incentive exists, there's always 748 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 1: going to be corporations and people who wanted to exist. 749 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 1: Like if we think about the pharmaceutical industry specifically in America, Uh, 750 00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 1: we experience drug prices that in other country does because 751 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: of things like you know, patent and there's just like 752 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 1: no incentive to stop doing it because there's so much 753 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:04,879 Speaker 1: money inside of it. Yeah. Well, I think that's why 754 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 1: we're having this these like moments where we're having to 755 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 1: really examine like the sort of systems we're living under them, 756 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: Like how long can this go before completely flame? Yeah? Absolutely, 757 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,239 Speaker 1: and before it cannibalizes it? Yeah, Because I mean that's 758 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 1: what's happening now with all this kind of private privatization 759 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 1: of public works and things like that. So yeah, that 760 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,239 Speaker 1: drives me nuts, especially like stories about like kids who 761 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,359 Speaker 1: will fill in potholes for free in the city will 762 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: just like send them a check and it's just like 763 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,959 Speaker 1: that is a broken state, right, Or there's like another 764 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 1: one of like kid uses his like uh fucking chore 765 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 1: money to pay unch. Did you I read one of 766 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:42,839 Speaker 1: those stories and the lunch that was like seventy four 767 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: dollars and it's like your local government, I'll send seventy 768 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 1: four dollars, Like your local government can't cover that, like 769 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 1: what is right? But instead, the way that that gets 770 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 1: turned into a news story is if a private individual 771 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 1: has to cover it for the people, like that's yeah, 772 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,800 Speaker 1: but we all to lift those stories up and celebrate 773 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 1: them in a way that becomes like toxic, like we're like, oh, 774 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 1: that's so sweet, instead of being like that's actually super 775 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: fucked up that they had to do that, Like where 776 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 1: where are any of the governmental support system? Yes, I 777 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,279 Speaker 1: don't blame us though, I think that I think like 778 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,360 Speaker 1: we're going to find the glimmers of hope where we 779 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: can like the people who built the system should be 780 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 1: But I think at the same time, you can cover 781 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 1: that and you can say acknowledge that this person is 782 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,879 Speaker 1: something good, but also in that article because most arts, 783 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:32,120 Speaker 1: and I mean six year old Stephen really went out 784 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 1: of his way to make things were fair, rather than 785 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 1: like he did that because he operates in the escape 786 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 1: where we put all this ship on this six year 787 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 1: old kid or however old this child is Like, what 788 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 1: the fuck is how that article should end?

They put 807 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 1: out about sixteen hours of unreleased material from around the 808 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 1: time they were recording Okay Computer. And if you're a fan, 809 00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,360 Speaker 1: you'll be like, wow, that's got to be great, and 810 00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:03,439 Speaker 1: the backstory is kind of interesting.

According to a statement from guitars Johnny Greenwood, 814 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 1: the band never wanted to put these recordings out, but 815 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 1: once they realized someone had stolen a cash of mini 816 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 1: discs from Tom York's archive and was reportedly demanding one 817 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,080 Speaker 1: dollars to not release them, they decided to upload everything 818 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,719 Speaker 1: onto band camp themselves. You can stream it all for 819 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 1: free for the next eighteen days only, or pay eighteen 820 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:31,760 Speaker 1: pounds for downloads, with the proceeds going to the environmental 821 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:36,239 Speaker 1: organization Extinction Rebellion UM.

Check it out there's I mean, 824 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 1: I was listening to some of the stuff if you're 825 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,279 Speaker 1: a fan, um, I don't know how many of you 826 00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:50,880 Speaker 1: are Radiohead fans in here, but like it's interesting to 827 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 1: see some songs go from like not that great to 828 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 1: like what you heard Okay Computer. It's worse versions of 829 00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:59,800 Speaker 1: the songs that I love, but it's like a behind 830 00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:02,759 Speaker 1: this scenes. Yeah, and it's really interesting to see how 831 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,800 Speaker 1: like the vibe of Okay Computer was like is totally 832 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 1: missing from a lot of the songs, Like what what 833 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 1: was the one that we were listening to that sounded 834 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 1: like kind of lounge e and like jazzy and like 835 00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 1: Motion Pictures soundtrack, which is like the most like stark 836 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 1: and just dark song on that. I don't know, they're 837 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,399 Speaker 1: all pretty stark and dark, but yeah, it like has 838 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:30,160 Speaker 1: like a lounge e like, yeah, it's fun vibe, but 839 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:31,960 Speaker 1: in a way, you know, like if your creator, it's 840 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:33,759 Speaker 1: one of those things to see. It's like even people 841 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 1: you hold up to be geniuses, like, yeah, it took 842 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:38,840 Speaker 1: they had to walk through some ship to get to 843 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:43,319 Speaker 1: where they got zing transparency, you know what I mean? 844 00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:45,480 Speaker 1: And I think watching the homework, Yeah, and I think 845 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 1: that's kind of the value as was listening to, because 846 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:50,760 Speaker 1: they're even moments where like Tom's like like just demoing 847 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 1: stuff on guitar by himself and you're like, whoa, I 848 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: think this is him like in the process of writing 849 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 1: like one of these songs, and then you can kind 850 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,759 Speaker 1: of tell your like okay, and then it takes a collective, 851 00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,279 Speaker 1: takes the Johnny Greenwoods and everybody in the world to 852 00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 1: be like this idea, let's flush it out, let's make 853 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,400 Speaker 1: something better. But yeah, I think it does demystify. I 854 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: think it's good for creative people, especially because for me, 855 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 1: especially when I was like first getting into anything music 856 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:18,080 Speaker 1: or comedy, at a very like skewed perception of what 857 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: it meant to be creative. Like I thought people were 858 00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:22,480 Speaker 1: just geniuses and sat in a room and just want 859 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 1: like blacked out and made ship. And I had no 860 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:28,759 Speaker 1: appreciation for a process or respecting my own process. And 861 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 1: I think things like this help you see like yeah, yeah, well, 862 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 1: I mean the whole thing is processed right, Like it's 863 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 1: sixteen hours. That's like, yeah, I mean it's It can 864 00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:39,799 Speaker 1: be painful too, especially when you're first starting. It can 865 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 1: be painful to see the kind of work that you 866 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:43,479 Speaker 1: want to make in the work that you are making 867 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,360 Speaker 1: right and not understanding like or even as you I 868 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 1: think like mid level people experienced specifically something where it's like, Okay, 869 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 1: I know what my taste is and I know the 870 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:54,759 Speaker 1: things I like, and I know what I what I 871 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:55,880 Speaker 1: want to make, but I don't have any of the 872 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:57,880 Speaker 1: tools to make it. And so I think like stuff 873 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,080 Speaker 1: like this helps us remember that like a lot of 874 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 1: it is trial and error and to be like more 875 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:06,000 Speaker 1: gentle with ourselves. Yeah, yeah, and take this thing out 876 00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 1: of the word failure or even what failure is yea, 877 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:10,800 Speaker 1: or celebrate failure right where it's like that's just another 878 00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 1: avenue that I don't have to bother going down. It's 879 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:16,239 Speaker 1: an iteration whatever it is, or it's more information, really 880 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,359 Speaker 1: is what that is? Like failure? Oh my god, I mean, 881 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,320 Speaker 1: we can start a podcast this time off embracing failure. 882 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 1: But some of the early drafts of like some classic 883 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 1: movies like Star Wars or like Batman or Spider Man, 884 00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:31,320 Speaker 1: like some of the early attempts to Back to the 885 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 1: Future was like stupid as fuck. In some of the 886 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 1: early drafts um more stupid than hey, Chuck, it's your cousin, Marvin, 887 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 1: Marvin Barvan Barry. That sounds you're looking for. Whenever I 888 00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:46,839 Speaker 1: feel really bad about myself, I read the California Cation 889 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 1: pilot script and everything feels better in a really enjoyable way, 890 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 1: surely enjoyable way. Wait, in a way that you're like, 891 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,479 Speaker 1: it's so bad, it's good. Yeah, it comes back around 892 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,320 Speaker 1: on it. So, wow, he has sex with that sixteen 893 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:03,680 Speaker 1: year old and she punches him in the face. Yeah, 894 00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,920 Speaker 1: you should not read it. It's good. Does he have 895 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 1: a sex with a sixteen year old in the show? Yeah, 896 00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:10,839 Speaker 1: but she doesn't know, he doesn't know that she's sixteen. Yeah, 897 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 1: so it's okay, it's fine. That show in my memory, 898 00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:18,200 Speaker 1: I was just like, oh wow, that show was super 899 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 1: fucked up. But I haven't really thought about it in 900 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 1: a long time. That was another show on Showtime. I 901 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 1: didn't see it because in the show Time I watched 902 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 1: it in like later, like once it was on or whatever. 903 00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:34,200 Speaker 1: You Yeah, I only saw it like maybe three years ago. Guys, 904 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 1: let's talk about the most important story that we have 905 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:41,839 Speaker 1: covered in our time doing the dailies. I guess there 906 00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:50,759 Speaker 1: is a new flavor of sweet sweet lightning it sounds 907 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:54,320 Speaker 1: like I can already tell just by the look that 908 00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:58,279 Speaker 1: kind of Okay, so first we have to discuss I 909 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 1: think Baja Blast came out like fifteen years ago.

There's 915 00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 1: a yellowish one that they have a taco bell that 916 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 1: I don't I usually get. I just did the regular. Yeah, 917 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:33,520 Speaker 1: you know, that's the one time I don't know why 918 00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 1: I'm going to Taco Bell. I got to drink because 919 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 1: I'm trying to just fully destroy my insights. Since I 920 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:42,120 Speaker 1: went miniature golfing at a place with that blue water, 921 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:48,440 Speaker 1: I've always wanted to drink something that looked like that. Yeah. 922 00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 1: Do people still have those blue toilet water cakes in there? 923 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,680 Speaker 1: I felt like that was a very nineties eighties thing. Yeah, oh, 924 00:52:55,760 --> 00:53:00,719 Speaker 1: you have one to sup our toilet actually have them? 925 00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 1: Uh after the cleaners come sometimes No, but that's them 926 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 1: putting in like there's like a cleaner versus like the thing. 927 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:11,360 Speaker 1: Ever that blue water comes out the whole time, and 928 00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,360 Speaker 1: then I always remember being like, why is this necessary? 929 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,960 Speaker 1: Because my pup was just turning green? Wait? Sorry, real 930 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:18,919 Speaker 1: quick question.
