00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to Season two thirty two,

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: Episode four of Hi Guys production of by Heart Radio.

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: This is a podcast where we take a deep dive

4
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 1: into America's share consciousness. It's Thursday, April fourteen, which of

5
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:21,639
Speaker 1: course means that it is National ex Spouse Dead. Yep,

6
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: shout out, give a little hello. How you going to

7
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: the ex spouse in your life? I guess this sounds

8
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,480
Speaker 1: it sounds like, you know how, because all these things

9
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,599
Speaker 1: are made up by people, and it's just you can

10
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: tell by the way this holiday is written, it's by

11
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 1: a haunted divorcee because it says very few marriages and amicably.

12
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: Each year on April fourteenth, National Ex Spouse Date encourages

13
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 1: those who have dissolved the marriage to forgive their former

14
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: spouse and move beyond any anger of bitterness that may remain.

15
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: And even those that do aren't free from angster regrets. Yeah, okay,

16
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: I cheated on you with your sister, but like have

17
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: some forgiveness and like very few marriages and amicab like

18
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: that's let's just start that out. Like, don't behold made

19
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: to some crazy made up standard when I think there

20
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: are only two successful marriages in the history of human kind.

21
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: So yeah, well, if you go back, you said. The

22
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: person who created it, Reverend Ronald Coleman of Kansas City,

23
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: created this holiday in seven as a way to dissolve

24
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: the bitterness that has often associated with divorce, and it's

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: inaugural year, he handed out buttons that read I'm okay

26
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 1: your history. I'm okay your history. So it's for people,

27
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: probably for people who are holding onto the pain of

28
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: a divorce, got it, you know. I like it from

29
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: the perspective of you're the person who has guilt from

30
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: doing the other person wrong, and like you need to

31
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: let it go. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean that's sounds

32
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: It sounds like his heart was in the right place.

33
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: But the way the way it's been co opted as

34
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: tend to be the wording also sounds like we're celebrating

35
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: the expose, which are like yay my ex husband or

36
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: wife or a partner or whatever, rather than like, hey man,

37
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: let go of the pain day anyways, shout out to

38
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:19,280

76
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,320

Speaker 1: Who are we looking at? Behind you? What's that? What's that?

94
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,279

00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna get to know you a little

98
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: bit better in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our

99
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: listeners a couple of the things that we're talking about,

100
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: I mean, right right up top, two more freaking weeks

101
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: of masks on planes? Are you serious? Bro? Are you serious?

102
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:21,799
Speaker 1: Come on ever come off? As the Drug Reports headline stated,

103
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: this is people. People are still still real mad about

104
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: masks on planes. I'm surprised that two weeks is the

105
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: time frame they're talking about. That seems a little short

106
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: for people who have to take multiple flights a day

107
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: as part of air crews. But so we'll talk about that,

108
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: We'll talk about Don Jr. We'll talk about just a

109
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,479
Speaker 1: little check in with a copaganda of the past few days.

110
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: So so we're gonna talk about that plenty more. But first,

111
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: c J, we do like to ask our guests, what

112
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: is something from your search history. Guys had a lot

113
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 1: of fun with this because it just realized and this

114
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:01,799
Speaker 1: is in the first time, But I'm trying to find

115
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: the longest iPhone cord that like actually works, that's a

116
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 1: long iPhone cord because I usually just type us in

117
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: the Amazon, but now I was like, I gotta hit

118
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 1: the internet streets, I gotta go outside that giant corporation,

119
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: and I gotta find the longest iPhone cord. Like with

120
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: it's like because I just I'm a person who lets

121
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys are like this, but

122
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: you let your phone die, and I just again, I'm

123
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: gonna be a father. I can't be having that. But

124
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: also so when I'm home and I'm I'm chilling, I

125
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: just need I can't be losing jewice while I'm at

126
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: home with some outlets nearby. But I also need to

127
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: move freely with it. So trying to invest in the

128
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: longest I've found that's worked for me has been twelve feet. Yeah,

129
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: I love to find. I think that would be a

130
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: game changer. Okay, you know be wild though is they

131
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 1: make you know how like back in the eighties and nineties,

132
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: people had that kitchen phone that had the long chord

133
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: on it so you could and like take that ship

134
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: through half the winding one. It's like bring that back

135
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 1: as an iPhone. Yes, so you're like, yo, it coils

136
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 1: back up. It's right there. If I need to fucking

137
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: take it on the go, I can. That was like

138
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: chord has like kind of completely gone away, Like what

139
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: the what? What? What is the pasta version? The pasta

140
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: equivalent of I was gonna say, it's like a curly fry. Yeah. Yeah, yeah,

141
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: it's the curly yeah. And I feel like that was

142
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: like the basis of so many eighties movies scenes where

143
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: it was like a parent on the go who had

144
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 1: to like run around to every room in their house

145
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: while still being on the corner right kitchen phone, or

146
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: like a great scene where it's a parent trying to

147
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: get the kids out of the house while they're on

148
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: the phone and everyone's like limboing around the cord and

149
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: ship and it's like, I'm sorry, and you get twisted

150
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: up in it. The scene ends where they run just

151
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: too far and get yanked yeah, and it's like parenting

152
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: is hard, and then the phone goes in the oatmeal

153
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: and you're like and the dog goes like this. Yeah.

154
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: But why do we think that, like that was a

155
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: pretty efficient chord. The fact, I mean, I guess it

156
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: got tangled a lot, but the fact that it could

157
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: stretch but generally would like take up less space seems

158
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 1: like a benefit, like a beneficial design. We have so

159
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: many chords in our life. I don't have a single

160
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 1: one that has shaped like that. Well, maybe because like

161
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: a power chord, it's hard to coil a power chord

162
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 1: and like have it go through like that constant stress

163
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: and then it probably gets fucked. I don't know. I'm

164
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: playing engineer here for a second, but yeah, that's that

165
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: could to me the only be the only reason, right.

166
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: I just feel like we became anti chord over the

167
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: last two decades. Yeah, like we we just we ditched

168
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,839
Speaker 1: the basics, the cord of it all, and it's like

169
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: just the spring recoil was great. Yeah, absolutely, Well look,

170
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 1: Zike Young, if you know where to get a even

171
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 1: a fucking a thirty footer, h's j up because I'm

172
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 1: at I'm with you, like I'm at that phase two.

173
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: I'm like I plant chargers around my house, so like

174
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: by my couch now, I gotta fucking twelve foot or

175
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: like just peeking out the cushions. So if ever I'm

176
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: on there, I can be like, fucking I can charge

177
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 1: right here. Open the freezer. There's a charger right there

178
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: under the sink. I got one, you know what I mean?

179
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: You never know? Yeah, the don't let your phone run

180
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: out thing has something been something that I've become religious

181
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: about since having kids, because first of all, like there's

182
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 1: the obvious stuff. You don't you want to be able

183
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 1: to capture a precious moment, and you want to always

184
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: have have your phone ready if there's like an emergency. Well,

185
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: it's also like something that you don't hear as much

186
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: as like there's a lot of downtime, like especially in

187
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: the early days, like that you're both like constantly doing

188
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: something and also very bored a lot of the time.

189
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 1: So it's good to have that thing there just in

190
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 1: case you need to in case you need to scroll

191
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: while the baby's does. And I spend probably on average,

192
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: since my kids were born, like two hours a day

193
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: like just waiting for them to fall asleep, like just

194
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: sitting next to them them waking up. I'm bad at

195
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: sleep training, but that's you know, just waiting with them

196
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: as they fall asleep, so you're not doing anything. I'm

197
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: not neglecting them. But I like, yeah, let me ask

198
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: you this about being a new parent. Is there a

199
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: lot of like is this normal googling? Um? Like, I

200
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: feel like one of the biggest fears every every new

201
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 1: parents tells me it's like they check and see if

202
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: their kid is breathing every you know, five seconds. Yeah,

203
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 1: which is really scary. I still I still struggle with like, yeah,

204
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: they like I'm not a person who has like intrusive

205
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: thoughts of like my own safety and stuff, but with kids.

206
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 1: With our kids, it's definitely a struggle and there's just weird,

207
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: weird stuff that comes out of their body. Should my

208
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: babies head be spinning around? You know? My babies belly

209
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 1: button d as big as their head? Yeah? Yeah, so

210
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 1: I need my phone to be charged to Google. Youngest

211
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 1: had a thing coming out of his belly button that

212
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: was like, well, this can't be good like that. That's

213
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: that seems like most of his body like that seems

214
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: like that most of his body weights in there, and

215
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: the doctor was like, nah, it'll go away. We're like,

216
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: there's no way this is going away this child and

217
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: then the body just swallowed it up as he grew.

218
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 1: It was he didn't throw it, like, we didn't actively

219
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 1: watch it as it like sucked it in like Linguini,

220
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: but like like here goes, here goes, here goes Oh

221
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 1: my god. Also, just an alternative if functionalities all you're

222
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: looking for in the long chords is extension cords underrated.

223
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 1: You can always get you can get a fifty foot extension.

224
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 1: They're just dragging around with you. If you want exactly

225
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: trade orange, you know, like you're on a construction site.

226
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: Just yeah, just right in the middle of your mid

227
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: century home, just hit thick orange, white and black and

228
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: you know brown. Have I talked about the time when we,

229
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 1: like I just moved to Missouri and my wife wanted

230
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: to like be eco conscious and so and we had

231
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: a yard like this was like our starter home. And

232
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: in Columbia, Missouri, and everybody, no matter how small your

233
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: yard was, had a riding lawnmower. And we we bought

234
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: an electric lawnmower that needed to be plugged in the

235
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: whole time, and so that that was a crash course

236
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,119
Speaker 1: and extension cords. I mowed through like three of them,

237
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: and any time I was out there, I was I

238
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 1: looked like I was just doing some vacuuming because it

239
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: was like such a slight and you have like you

240
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: have one hand and I'm having the one hand on

241
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: the cord doing it back and forth and like to

242
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 1: the point that people would stop and like look at me,

243
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: and it was they thought it was cute. I mean

244
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: it was at that point. Your gardening looks more like

245
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: being like an encourt NBA cameraman were like when you

246
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: got the camera and then you got the cord wrangler

247
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: behind you doing a lot of whipping it around to

248
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: make sure neighborhood kids are jump roping, like holding your

249
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: arm real highs. Keep it away. Yeah, what is something

250
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: that you think is overrated? Sita? I don't know if

251
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: you guys are TikTok heads like myself and I might

252
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 1: be oldness, might be like late, but that Tom's diner covert,

253
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: do you guys notice? And maybe I should have linked it? Yeah,

254
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: which is a gray Eat song, and then these like

255
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: two Hosier wannabes come in and they do like this

256
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: hiccup singing, and then it's become like the you know,

257
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: the the process of TikTok songs, at least our Sounds

258
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: is like, Hey, everyone who wants their video to go

259
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: viral will make it their background music. So now my algorithm,

260
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: my feed is just every single category of a viral

261
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: video with this awful cover behind it, and I just

262
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: and then I saw it. It's like on the Billboard

263
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: charts or on the Spotify charts, and I just can't

264
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: escape it. I can't even imagine trying to bring Hosier

265
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: level like to the like that is supposed to be

266
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: just like that that they seem like they're at the

267
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: opposite ends of like intention from the artist from the vocalist.

268
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: Definitely a take, you know. It's like, you know, it's

269
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: like they're not gonna go viral covering it like the

270
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: Smooth I don't even know who the original artist is,

271
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: so like, yeah, they're in their raspy their raspy voice,

272
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, okay, this is jarring. And then

273
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: some people were like, it's so jarring. I like it,

274
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: and I should put a trick shop video the sounds

275
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: of this. Let's let's listen to it really quick, so

276
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: we have an idea of it justin I'd imagine we're

277
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: not going to put in the show, but just for

278
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: our reference. Ah, alright, I just don't know if they're serious. Alright,

279
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: we're back. We just listened to it in the month.

280
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: It like, what the fun is Tom Waits is ship

281
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: coming in here? The the original feels like it is

282
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: like the artist is disappearing like that. That feels like

283
00:16:57,880 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: that's what that song is about. That artist is just

284
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:05,120
Speaker 1: appearing from the boredom of like the situation, and that

285
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: cover is being like fucking look at me right right now,

286
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: my emotions. Watch me take liberties with this, and it

287
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: feels it Before I even argue, he is looking out

288
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: the window like it sounds like a coffee house open,

289
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: like prank, Like everyone is just trying to mind their

290
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 1: own business and persons like I'm gonna turn this place

291
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: upside down. And it's just all of the flame from

292
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 1: his stomach upright. The reaction of the other patrons in

293
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: the coffee shop, they're like, okay, can a little trumpet?

294
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 1: That's okay? And they're like, oh when it starts iron

295
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: in the morning and they're like, what the funk? And

296
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: then you get hit with that. Yeah, I'm like, this

297
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: is this This coffee shop has gone downhill Tom's Diner?

298
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 1: What happened to you? Yeah, it's funny. I was just

299
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: talking to producer Beck the the day I was at

300
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 1: the fucking liquor store. Do you ever see this ship

301
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: where people start bumping TikTok tunes out their car like

302
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: it's fucking you know, the summer of O two and

Speaker 1: at the liquor store this woman, but I'm not joking,

306
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: Like thirteen mini shooters of flavored vodka got in her Honda,

307
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: her Honda CRV, rolled the windows down to start playing

308
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: that one track from TikTok goes that one. She was

309
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: black you want to bumba out her fucking car. Let

310
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,439
Speaker 1: that ship cook, and then slow motioned out of the

311
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 1: parking lot like we were like, yo, there she goes

312
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: drink it in Wow, that's um you want so? And

313
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: is the song starting right where the TikTok like videos

314
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: start using it? Or has she gone and done the

315
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 1: research found the song and it's just like playing the song,

316
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:04,920
Speaker 1: that's my question. Okay, yeah, like almost like oh yeah,

317
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 1: like I funk with this, but like she had the

318
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 1: vibe of someone who, like by osmosis, kept hearing it

319
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 1: because someone else is using TikTok or she's so TikTok brained,

320
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 1: like I've fallen into that ship to her, like I'm like,

321
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: I really liked this song and then I'm listening to

322
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: it very quietly in my AirPods. What is something you

323
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,679
Speaker 1: think is underrated? M This one might just be me,

324
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: but the Fly on the Wall podcast, and I don't

325
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: want to promote other podcasts and other networks. But David

326
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: Spade and Danna car Let's just this off nek SNL

327
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: Nostalgian History. The podcast is here for that. David Spay,

328
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 1: Dana Carvey, they just talked about SNL and and we're

329
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 1: like losing some some big comedians, I feel like in

330
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: the last few months, and so I'm like, we're really

331
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 1: cherishing hearing David Spade talked about behind the scenes of

332
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: Joe Dirt and so it's truly my one escape and

333
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: I'm like recommending it to everyone, and not many people

334
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 1: are really enjoying the recommendation, but um yeah, I just

335
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: I'm I'm finding it a lot of fun to listen to.

336
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: So that's my underrated selection for today. That's do we

337
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 1: ever talk about the development team on this podcast, Miles,

338
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: because that's one that I think we knew about a

339
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: while back before it launched, and I was like, yeah,

340
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: this is gonna be great, Like listen to these two

341
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,360
Speaker 1: dudes talk to each other is a lot of fun. Yeah,

342
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,400
Speaker 1: I mean, And that's just such a good format because

343
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: like some things just don't have like the kind of

344
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: like director's commentary or something you'd like on the DVD

345
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:39,919
Speaker 1: or some ship like I would listen to like a

346
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,239
Speaker 1: oral history of like in Living Color, you know what

347
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: I mean, like imagine that ship. Well that's so if

348
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 1: you if this, if you guys passed on this, the

349
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: Living Color one is some like you guys got to

350
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 1: get a move on on it. Yeah, I don't think

351
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: we passed on it as did not got to have

352
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: have the budget with financial might but worth it. Uh,

353
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 1: what have you learned anything? Like? Because I I kinda

354
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 1: like I've read The Life from New York and all,

355
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 1: you know, the oral histories and used to like basically

356
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 1: listen to podcasts like a genre of podcast was like

357
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:23,359
Speaker 1: listening to comedians tell stories about their SNL trials basically

358
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 1: for a while there. So I mean just the I

359
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 1: like hearing more about like SNL character movies are such

360
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 1: a thing in the past. Um, and there were like

361
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: attempts that were you know, more recent than we recall

362
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: or like knew about so like even today that the

363
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 1: Bill Hayter episode dropped, and um, hearing like the possibility

364
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,919
Speaker 1: of like a Stefan movie would have been incredible. But

365
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 1: then like then Dana Carvey started talking about the Hans

366
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: and Franz movie and like they're all The biggest hurdle

367
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: for all of these is that, like, yeah, you take

368
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 1: Hans and Frans out of a gym, it does not work.

369
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 1: You take step On behind like they're like Melany and

370
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: and Hater. We're saying that Steffon didn't work as a sketch.

371
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,159
Speaker 1: It only could be at the update death. So but

372
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 1: every that's how we all know the success of these

373
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,439
Speaker 1: characters and taglines like can can Lauren make a movie

374
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: of it? And for the most part no, because like

375
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: even the ones that came out and no one liked,

376
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:19,479
Speaker 1: even though I loved the Ladies Man movie so funny

377
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,679
Speaker 1: because that was that hit DVD when I was like

378
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 1: a freshman in college and that was a that was

379
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 1: heavy rotation, as was d Roxbury and then I mean

380
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,919
Speaker 1: McGrew the movie. I think it might be the movie

381
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 1: that most like shouldn't have worked, and like the gap

382
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 1: between how well it should have worked and how well

383
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: it does work. The largest might be mcgrouber personally a

384
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: big fan of that movie. Well, that has such a

385
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,640
Speaker 1: specific perspective even for it to be like a really

386
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: condensed kind of quick sketch, like you knew how to

387
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: like extend that, whereas, like to your point about steff On,

388
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: like that was more of a bit between Molaney and

389
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: Bill Hayter to get in the crack at the desk,

390
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: and that was like the fun of it. We were

391
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: also kind of witnessing, So it's a little bit hard

392
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 1: to like transpose that too. Yeah, like mc grouper was

393
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: able to if they had decided in in general, let's

394
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: make a really good action movie parody, you know, and

395
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: like they were able to do that, plus a lot

396
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: of very sketchy elements, but like stuff on, it's like, well,

397
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,160
Speaker 1: I guess, yeah, what what sort of format can you

398
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 1: can you use um to carry out ninety minutes? And

399
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, right the yeah, I mean mc grouper.

400
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: The sketch though, let's let's remember was making fun of

401
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 1: a single trope from the show Mcgiver that like no

402
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: other show really used that much. And then it was

403
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: just it was the same ship over and over like

404
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 1: and that was the joke. And then they turned that

405
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: into like the best kind of over the top parody

406
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: of an action movie I think of their time personally,

407
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean who who knows, But that's that's

408
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: amazing that they tried to make a Stefan movie. I

409
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: would have liked to have seen what they came up.

410
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,440
Speaker 1: You would you watch a ninety minute him just saying

411
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 1: this place has everything, and he goes build, All right,

412
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. And

413
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: we're back, and you know, the the media has announced

414
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 1: that we're gonna be wearing masks on planes for two

415
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 1: more weeks, and they are reacting like children have been

416
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: told like that they have to I don't know that

417
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 1: that their birthday has been delayed by two weeks, Like

418
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 1: it's just that it's never gonna come off. Then what

419
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: the fuck? Like Mike, like the My response to two

420
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: more weeks is, wait, how the funk is they're going

421
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: to ever be like a busy travel industry with flight

422
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:17,400
Speaker 1: crews flying multiple times a day, jammed into a small

423
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: tube with people not wearing masks, Like how how is

424
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 1: that going to work? And we have two weeks to

425
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 1: figure that out? But everybody else's response seems to be

426
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,239
Speaker 1: like fucking kidding me, guys. I want to look at

427
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 1: the bright spot of this, and it means two more

428
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: weeks of people being taped to their chair like that,

429
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: it got it got so crazy like these Karen videos that,

430
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 1: and like airline people are like flight attendants or whatever

431
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: having to fight people by taping them to their chair

432
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 1: and taping their mouth shut. Like we've gotten to that

433
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 1: and that's okay. Yeah, and so yeah, like I'm never

434
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 1: not going to wear a mask in a flight. Yeah,

435
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,719
Speaker 1: me too, say I, I like not get it not

436
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: being sick and free time I get off a plane.

437
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: In my mind, the mask can come off when therapeutic

438
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,919
Speaker 1: drugs are so good that like if the second you

439
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:11,479
Speaker 1: have COVID you can just go get like tailing all

440
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: COVID and then it's like it's really like that. But

441
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 1: until then, like I really it's it's really difficult to

442
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 1: like feel safe knowing especially on the plane. You know,

443
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 1: you're I get that the air is circulated and like

444
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: transmission rates are not super high on airplanes and ship

445
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,360
Speaker 1: like that, but it's like, well, I guess the positive

446
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: to CJ's point is I'm looking forward to three weeks

447
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: from now because then maybe we don't need them anymore.

448
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,120
Speaker 1: Is that to do when they say, all right, two

449
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: more weeks, okay, then it will be figured out by

450
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 1: the third week, like they got this, they got that.

451
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: That's the implication here, which I like, but the I

452
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 1: guess it's an A p article is saying the mask

453
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: manday is the most visible vestige of government restrictions to

454
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 1: control the pandemic. There's been a slight increase in cases

455
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 1: in Reese weeks driven by this new strain, and because

456
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: most positive tests are at home tests, it's not we

457
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 1: don't know how many people are testing positive, so the

458
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 1: numbers aren't going on the only time we're gonna know

459
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,919
Speaker 1: how severe this wave is is when people start dying

460
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 1: in a couple of weeks, and hey, maybe we should

461
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 1: wait for that. And the majority response seems to be like, no,

462
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 1: the masks are fucking chin diapers. Fuck you okay, and

463
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: like what ah man, people have too much energy, uh

464
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 1: and they're putting in the wrong fucking place. I'll tell

465
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: you that. Well, speaking of energy in the wrong place,

466
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 1: let's talk about Donald Trump Jr. Yeah, what's what's going

467
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: on with this man? And you? So we every act

468
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: like every week we get these cool text leaks. You know, Oh,

469
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 1: guess who was telling Mark Meadows about q and on

470
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 1: this week? Or guess who was begging him to fucking

471
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 1: overturn the election. Well, last week we got just like

472
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 1: the such clear, like even more clear evidence, as if

473
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 1: like existing between November and January six wasn't enough to

474
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: be like they are fucking are they're trying to do

475
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: some ship we we have now we got the fucking receipts.

476
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 1: So well, even if that matters, because I think most

477
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 1: people are like, what's the do O J doing here?

478
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: But the recent drop has to do with Mark Meadows.

479
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 1: And this time though, he was getting messages from the

480
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: president's oldest son, Key Bumps. So key Bumps is texting him.

481
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 1: This is two days after the election. Key Bumps is

482
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: texting Mark Meadows saying this is what this is exactly

483
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: the Texas quote. It's very simple. We have multiple paths,

484
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: we control them all. We have operational control, total leverage,

485
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: moral high ground. Podus must start second term. Now, that's

486
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: like just making like he feels like he is in

487
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: US and do order like the apparatus of the US government, right,

488
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 1: or he's like that friend when you before you go

489
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: out to the club and he's too funked up on drugs,

490
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: or Alcon's like yeah, man, and then we're gonna go

491
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 1: in there and we're gonna get these bitches, man, and

492
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: then we're gonna party with him, and you're like, okay, man,

493
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: thank you. Just it's just somewhere else that's not reflecting

494
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: the reality of the situation. Let's be real, we're gonna

495
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 1: sit in this room and then complain about life by

496
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: ourselves as single men. But now this plan that we

497
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: see that he had, quote unquote, we saw it all happen, right.

498
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: The primary goal was just so chaos and swing states

499
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 1: and lean on the secretaries of state to not certify

500
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 1: the results or try to get their own slate of

501
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 1: sham electors, which we saw like in Arizona, or like

502
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 1: these group of Republicans are like, we are the real

503
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 1: people certifying certifying the election in the courts of like

504
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: please get the funk out of here. And since that

505
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 1: didn't work, we saw what plan there's you know, step

506
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: two was, or their fall back, fallback plan was, which

507
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 1: was to try and get the Congress to nullify the

508
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 1: results and get Pence to you know, do the thing

509
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 1: that he couldn't do. So honestly, this doesn't sound like

510
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 1: people who really believed that the election was being stolen

511
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 1: and they were writing like acting out of like righteous

512
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 1: morality to try and like fight this off. It's all

513
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 1: clear of here, they're using burner phones. This guy's like,

514
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 1: we control everything, total leverage. We can make it all happen.

515
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: We have multiple paths, we control them all. I just

516
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: didn't I mean, I'm not following this too closely, but

517
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: didn't Trump a few weeks ago admit that the election

518
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: wasn't stolen and then like everyone sort of didn't care,

519
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 1: like was like cool, And then now I feel like

520
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 1: he got bored of like looking sane for a minute,

521
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: and then it's now back to this. I feel like

522
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 1: if he had said that, that would have been I

523
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: don't know, nothing he says is really that much of

524
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: news anymore, aside from like when he's like trust trying

525
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: to be like this is the best candidate for this state.

526
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: But I mean it's clear that he's he's trying to

527
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: figure out what the funk to do too, because I meanwhile,

528
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 1: you also hear him he's like begging Ron to Santists

529
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 1: to not run for president, and Loki being like, it'd

530
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: be great if you can announce you're not going to

531
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: run against me, and then I'll endorse to you. How

532
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: about that, Donald Trump Senior. Yeah, yeah, yeah, not key

533
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 1: bumps Joe. Donald Trump sr Uh is out here like

534
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 1: begging to santists to be like, let's do some tip

535
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: for tap, Which will be interesting how that plays out,

536
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 1: because it'll you know, you'd love to see De Santis

537
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: and Trump just rip each other apart and see who

538
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 1: comes out. But either way, we're looking at a very

539
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 1: very stinky situation. And the wild part is despite those texts,

540
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 1: key bumps lawyer is saying, uh, look, quote after the election,

541
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: Don Jr. Received numerous messages from supporters and others. Given

542
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: the date, this message likely originated from someone else and

543
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: was forwarded. So this is this is essentially a soft

544
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: affluent defense, right, Oh yeah, this is people were saying

545
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: stuff to him. You can't you just gotta let understand,

546
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 1: like he's just repeating what he heard and he's a

547
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 1: real dipshit. You're honor my client, who is a fucking

548
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: angel child from heaven. There's no way that could have

549
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 1: been his eight ball or whatever it's called. Of cocaine

550
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 1: in the car. It must have been in there from

551
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 1: a previous occupant. Now, can we go to the golf

552
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 1: course you're on or we're gonna lose our tea time.

553
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: Like it's like you like, it really does have that

554
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 1: like let me just say this, you'll agree and we

555
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 1: can move on. But a lot of people have pointed

556
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: out though, like this main story about these texts was

557
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 1: a story that was breaking from the New York Times,

558
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 1: but they put that ship all the way back on

559
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: page A fifteen mm. Whereas like you know, many people

560
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: like I remember Hillary's emails being like above the fold

561
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: on the front page. But you got this guy out

562
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: here being like we got all the fucking paths man

563
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 1: and control the leverage roll like let's do this and

564
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: at But anyway, the New York Times stays taken notes,

565
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: is there any scenario on the horizon where like this

566
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: investigation prevents him from running again? In four? Like what

567
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: have people talked about? Like what? So let's say just

568
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 1: they keep finding like just closets full of smoking guns

569
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 1: like this just like opening doors and getting like buried

570
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 1: by smoking guns, like it's fucking Scooby Dook cartoon. What

571
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 1: is like the best case scenario for the future of democracy?

572
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: Uh my god, that's a hard one to know. I mean,

573
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure if he's like actually indicted and convicted. Yeah,

574
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 1: I just think he's like we saw during his presidency,

575
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: like he was so absurdly committing so many like crimes

576
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 1: or like you know, impeach and whatnot. But like these

577
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 1: rules are so loosely written and they have just all

578
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: the money in the world to hire these weird ass

579
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: lawyers that they will find a path to run. And

580
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 1: it's just like it makes me feel like this whole

581
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: thing is like all this stuff is fake, all these

582
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 1: structures are like and it's just it's a dark it's

583
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 1: a dark thought or like path I go down to

584
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: my brain. Yeah, it's it's hard, right because there's nothing

585
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 1: that constitutionally bars someone even if they're convicted. You could

586
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: run for president from jail. Yeah, technically, you know what

587
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: I mean. So the other thing people say is like

588
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 1: the fourteenth Amendment maybe because that's the same thing they

589
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,279
Speaker 1: were trying to get Madison Cawthorne on, which is like

590
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: you know, if you were sucking around and like because

591
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: you know that's all after the Civil War, being like

592
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,479
Speaker 1: you know, if you're working around an insurrection, you can't

593
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: hold office. That's disqualifying. That is more clear, and its wording.

594
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 1: But again, I'm not a legal scholar or constitutional scholar,

595
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 1: but from my understanding, there aren't many things I'd imagine

596
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: if he were in jail, you know, he'd probably still

597
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 1: run from I don't know, that would be even more wild,

598
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: you know. But the short and there is it all

599
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,760
Speaker 1: looks pretty bad, and I think is a very clear

600
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 1: indictment on how terribly this country is set up to

601
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: prevent things like this from happening. Because everybody's kind of

602
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 1: in on a scam on some level, within some you know,

603
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:18,359
Speaker 1: vertical or silo of the government. So we're not good

604
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 1: at actually being able to like legally keep people out

605
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 1: of office unless, like you know, there's a real concerted

606
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 1: effort from most people in d C. I feel like

607
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,479
Speaker 1: there's so many things where we went from like I think,

608
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:36,280
Speaker 1: I think the you know, New York Times reading public

609
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,239
Speaker 1: in New York Times reading and believing public went in

610
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: the last ten years from like it can't happen here

611
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: to like it could happen here, just like so many

612
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: different things could happen here, and probably more easily than

613
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: in most other countries. Right. Well, yeah, and their Democrats,

614
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:55,399
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, like you look at the people

615
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 1: who are the people who support the Times, you know,

616
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: because they went more to like a subscription based moll

617
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 1: for their business. It's the same kind of kind of

618
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 1: person who's like a well to do or like people

619
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 1: someone earning a decent living who's liberal living in a city,

620
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 1: and so it's just kind of running away and like

621
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:17,240
Speaker 1: and you see how they're trying to bring younger people

622
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: and like that's why they bought Wortle or they bought

623
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: the Athletic and trying to be like, yo, we do

624
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 1: other stuff too. But I mean until like the editorial

625
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:29,439
Speaker 1: perspective changes, like they're gonna just I don't I don't

626
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: see them expanding their audience most of time, Like, yeah,

627
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: there is good reporting, and then you have to you

628
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 1: juxtapose that with some of the awful fucking takes that

629
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:38,879
Speaker 1: are in there too, and you're like, I don't even

630
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,880
Speaker 1: like this ship is like hitting twenty of the time. Alright,

631
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.

632
00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 1: And we're back and we're talking about the story. We're

633
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 1: gonna skip because it's still gonna be here in a while,

634
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 1: but it's it's just too crazy. Then we then we

635
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 1: just started talking about how we need to talk about it. So, uh,

636
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 1: there's an l A p D thing. Well, we'll get

637
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,879
Speaker 1: to the it's just a copaganda update. There's a bunch

638
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 1: of good ship being done by Alec Karrick Santis on

639
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 1: the New York Times and how their coverage of the

640
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 1: subway shooting just really they used that as a as

641
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:30,880
Speaker 1: a way to feed into all these these bullshit capaganda narratives.

642
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 1: But we wanted to today talk specifically about this l A.

643
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: P D story that dropped just yesterday warning residents that

644
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 1: seventeen gangs are sending out cruise to conduct follow home

645
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: robberies and the only source they site for and like,

646
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 1: this is a crime that is definitely happening in l

647
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 1: A in the in the past six months. I've heard

648
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 1: of you hear about it. How I definitely don't suppose

649
00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 1: that with the overall statistic that crime is going down,

650
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,439
Speaker 1: prime is going down, that's you know, and I think

651
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 1: that's the thing we would like. I think Alec points

652
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,879
Speaker 1: out really well in his thread. He's like, even even

653
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 1: if you these things are reported, it's still adding to

654
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,400
Speaker 1: this fucking myth that the crime is crime rates are

655
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 1: going up when we're experiencing fucking lows and the only

656
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: source they say for the like this is a major

657
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,240
Speaker 1: problem side of the story as an l APD task

658
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 1: force that presented this narrative at a press conference, and

659
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 1: it is clearly politically motivated. And it's like they just

660
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: call out the progressives by name. They call out a

661
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: unconvicted person that they've arrested by name, being like this

662
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 1: person has been arrested like three times, and they keep,

663
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,439
Speaker 1: you know, the d A keeps putting them back out

664
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 1: on the street. But I just want to talk about

665
00:38:55,440 --> 00:39:00,920
Speaker 1: the specific examples of the crimes that they are talking about,

666
00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 1: because the strategy here and has the strategy has been

667
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 1: in l A for the past I'd say, you know,

668
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:12,720
Speaker 1: three months, four months has been to get the ultra

669
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:18,800
Speaker 1: ultra wealthy scared. That's so that they continue to push

670
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:23,800
Speaker 1: progressives out of politics and bring in your ricks con

671
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:27,959
Speaker 1: so and you know these people who are real estate

672
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 1: developers who can just make l A more of a

673
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:35,280
Speaker 1: place where you can get rich, don't funk my money

674
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 1: up party. Yeah. So they talk about one guy who's

675
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 1: arrested on gun charges let go because they didn't have

676
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,959
Speaker 1: ship on him other than him having a gun still

677
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 1: having hasn't been charged. They reveal his full name and

678
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: his crimes are. He's tied to this, these crimes where

679
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 1: they're robbing people who are wearing watches or carrying property

680
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 1: worth more than the average Americans annual salary and two

681
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,840
Speaker 1: x the median income, which is thirty dollars. I'm just

682
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 1: gonna read directly. Adams, according to More, was involved in

683
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 1: eight separate follow off robberies over a six month period

684
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,800
Speaker 1: starting last fall, including one in which two U c

685
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 1: l A. Students were robbed of two watches. Me to

686
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,719
Speaker 1: watch it. Okay, just wait for this part and then

687
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 1: watch worth nearly one and forty five thousand dollars. Funk

688
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: out of here? Why, yeah, students, how why are you

689
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 1: in college if you are able to wear a watch

690
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: that yeah, worth that much? Exactly like, funk out of here, bro, Like,

691
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 1: I know how you're in college because you're your resume

692
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,359
Speaker 1: on the water polo team was fucking lit even though

693
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:51,279
Speaker 1: you've never been in a pool before. But so, yeah,

694
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: so this is a tale. Now again, this is a crime.

695
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,239
Speaker 1: I understand that's a robbery, but well we know we

696
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 1: know this in the culture, or is just getting God. Yes, um,

697
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:05,319
Speaker 1: there's a most death song about this very specific thing

698
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: that says, come on, now, what you expect got a

699
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,920
Speaker 1: month's pay check? Dangle linn off your neck? That's right,

700
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 1: because people are rubbing their mints looking at you. Another

701
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 1: line is Mr. Fashion that's down never lasts long. The

702
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:24,840
Speaker 1: harder you flash, harder you get flashed on. And that

703
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 1: was a month's salary. A month's salary. I don't know

704
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 1: anybody who makes what you expect, got a person's nine

705
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: years worth of salary? Dangle lin off your neck? I

706
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,719
Speaker 1: mean that's a fucking you're you look you look like

707
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: a mark. Maybe they're on their way to pay for

708
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 1: their tuition with it, like they're on their way to

709
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 1: the admissions office and being like, hey, we just want

710
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,879
Speaker 1: to jazz up. This really sour experience of paying six

711
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,839
Speaker 1: figure college tuition. So here's our chains worth that much.

712
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 1: But right here, just here take that. I mean, this

713
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: was this they got. They got like they got spotted

714
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 1: at a club, right, wasn't that they are So it

715
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: was a hundred forty five where two watches worth nearly

716
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 1: a hundred forty five thousand dollars after leaving a club

717
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: a second in which to foreign tourists were robbed of

718
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 1: watches worth seventy three thousand dollars, and a third in

719
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: which fifty one thousand dollars in property was stolen. So

720
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 1: my question is, are they talking about this because they

721
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 1: want the ultra wealthy to get scared and you know,

722
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 1: get Rick Cruso elected, or you know, get gas going

723
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,279
Speaker 1: out of out of like the progressives out of politics,

724
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,920
Speaker 1: that sort of thing, which seems to already be the movement.

725
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 1: Or are they talking about this because these are the

726
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:45,800
Speaker 1: only crimes that they've actually addressed, because they only address

727
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:50,400
Speaker 1: crimes that affect the ultra ultra wealthy, would be my question.

728
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 1: I mean, and I get it, you know, wealthy people

729
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: should be scared. You just want to wear your bus

730
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 1: down auto Mars to fucking you know the pet code

731
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:03,759
Speaker 1: and now you've got people. This town is a fun

732
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 1: I have to like get a driver and a security

733
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 1: guard to drive me around. That was the literal quote

734
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:13,439
Speaker 1: from a lady when an l a magazine article it's

735
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 1: becoming Brazil. To be honest, I'm pretty soon going to

736
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: have to just take a helicopter everywhere because the streets

737
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,319
Speaker 1: are so fucking dangerous it l A P. I mean

738
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:24,399
Speaker 1: we can get to l A magazine. That place has

739
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 1: completely embarrassed itself. I follow the motherfucker's on Instagram. Every

740
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: story they put out, they put when they're like Yavin

741
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 1: Newsom hangs out with rushing aligarks and ship and you

742
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 1: read the story like has nothing really to do with

743
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,399
Speaker 1: any of that ship and all they do or talk

744
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 1: about these crime stories, which again are all there to

745
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 1: ignore the basic fact first right that most crime is

746
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 1: near historic lows in the country and also at that

747
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 1: crime like across academic disciplines, crime, like the consensus is,

748
00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: crime is caused by inequality. It is not caused by

749
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:04,759
Speaker 1: a lack of police or more police, which seems to

750
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: be the only argument being presented in the New York

751
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: Times and the l A Times on these stories. It

752
00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: is fucking wild. It is unbelievable, Like it's straight up

753
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: propaganda for the police, and it is the only perspective

754
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:24,520
Speaker 1: that is being presented in like what is seen by

755
00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:28,319
Speaker 1: most people as like the the major like the all

756
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 1: the reason that's fent to print, and it shows you, man,

757
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 1: if you if you repeat it enough, it becomes fact.

758
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,919
Speaker 1: Just despite the fact like we're saying crime is down,

759
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,440
Speaker 1: but you keep saying, just look at all the shoplifting

760
00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 1: blah blah. Don't talk about why people even steal ship,

761
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, people don't steal ship because

762
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: they have everything either. But and even sociologists like the

763
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 1: way we stay off fascism is through like addressing inequality.

764
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: But it's very like taking advantage of the clickbait. Like

765
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 1: it's clickbait right almost like, hey, here's a direct correl aation.

766
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:02,600
Speaker 1: We need more guns, and we need that money to

767
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,479
Speaker 1: pay for guns and more cops, and like we're gonna

768
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,799
Speaker 1: keep like you you scare rich people. What do they do?

769
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,360
Speaker 1: They go and buy more security systems, and they like,

770
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 1: we need more police surrounding our our neighborhoods. And it's like,

771
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:18,960
Speaker 1: but read past the headline, read like go search for

772
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:22,319
Speaker 1: it elsewhere from your like notifications you're getting from like

773
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 1: you know, these very very like click baity type sites.

774
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 1: And and it's just it's unfortunate that it hasn't worked

775
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 1: in the last two decades. Why not try something else,

776
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 1: Why not look just a little bit further that we

777
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 1: need to stop funding the cops. Right, It's and I

778
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: can't it's not journalism if you don't ask multi facinting

779
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:44,440
Speaker 1: you have a multi faceted approach to something like this.

780
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,279
Speaker 1: If you're just asking the police commission or what their

781
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 1: take is, it's going to lead them to as Alec

782
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,840
Speaker 1: was pointing out right ship, like they're writing ship in

783
00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 1: the New York Times, or they're trying to say that

784
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,919
Speaker 1: because four thousand people were arrested in March that they're

785
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 1: or declines in shooting incidences in January and February. Yeah,

786
00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,400
Speaker 1: that was that is an argument that was linked off to,

787
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 1: like so they some they summarize it as like a

788
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 1: surge of arrests has led to like so the New

789
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: York Times, like it's laundered into something that sounds reasonable

790
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,920
Speaker 1: in New York Times in the text of the New

791
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:24,360
Speaker 1: York Times. But then they're only go off to an

792
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 1: article that basically makes the claim that a decline of

793
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 1: nine homicides in March or sorry in January and February

794
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 1: was the result of arrests made in March. Yeah, and

795
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,239
Speaker 1: let me and let me explain that because this guy

796
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 1: was like, man, I'm I'm gonna fucking I'm gonna use

797
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 1: my gun today. Actually, you know what, Nah, because I'm

798
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,399
Speaker 1: gonna get arrested in a couple of weeks. So let

799
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 1: me put let me put the let me put violence

800
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:53,920
Speaker 1: away today. What are what's how how are we supposed

801
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:58,280
Speaker 1: to process that? Yeah? And it's the you know, America

802
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: is spend money on policing and on the caging of

803
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:07,800
Speaker 1: human beings at unprecedented levels in the history of the world,

804
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 1: and we don't have unprecedentedly low crime. We are. Crime

805
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,799
Speaker 1: is low compared to where it was in the nineties,

806
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:21,480
Speaker 1: it's not unprecedentedly low compared to other countries that don't

807
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,880
Speaker 1: spend this much on policing and don't have like truly

808
00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:30,080
Speaker 1: historic like bi historic standards like that. This is what

809
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,319
Speaker 1: the United States is going to be viewed as. Like

810
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,040
Speaker 1: thousands of years from now, they'll be like, oh that

811
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 1: was that planet is going to be fun. You know,

812
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 1: there will still be well they aliens. They'll be like, oh,

813
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 1: that was a society that like caged their humans like that.

814
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:54,359
Speaker 1: That is what is there, Like what is noteworthy about

815
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 1: the United States? They didn't see the fundamental sickness of

816
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,720
Speaker 1: their culture that they invest more in car storl technic

817
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 1: and death generating technologies than the well being of their

818
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 1: own people. And then we're curious as things began to degrade. Yeah,

819
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,759
Speaker 1: fuck anyway, I mean, I guess we might as well

820
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:16,520
Speaker 1: talk about the New York Times side of it, because

821
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:20,520
Speaker 1: there was a shooting in the Brooklyn subways, and the

822
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:24,239
Speaker 1: New York Times quickly made that a thing. So the

823
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 1: headline started as several people shot in Brooklyn subway station,

824
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,920
Speaker 1: that those are the facts. It was quickly revised to

825
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:36,520
Speaker 1: shooting in subway station heightened simmering fears about public safety,

826
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 1: becomes an article where they talk about Eric Adams, the

827
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:46,799
Speaker 1: new mayor, defending returned to broken window policing that has

828
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:54,920
Speaker 1: been debunkedly, thoroughly, repeatedly debunked. The lead article on the

829
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: shooting did not mention that the US as an outlier

830
00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:01,319
Speaker 1: and the availability of guns, or poverty or inequality or

831
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 1: lack of mental health care, or that the New York

832
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:07,800
Speaker 1: the NYPD had just added more cops to the subways,

833
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:11,760
Speaker 1: just because those would seem to be the relevant facts

834
00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 1: which shooting happens. Did they mention that like there weren't

835
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,320
Speaker 1: a lot of death or there wasn't like any deaths

836
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 1: because people like New York citizens were applying tourniquets to

837
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 1: the victims. Like where were the cops saving anyone? It

838
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:30,560
Speaker 1: was just like, well, I can't believe this happened. The

839
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:36,120
Speaker 1: cops just some worry. It's like, oh no, New York

840
00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:39,080
Speaker 1: citizens are saving each other in these situations because we're

841
00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:43,760
Speaker 1: all like no longer able to depend on on the police,

842
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:48,280
Speaker 1: so we all have to have our plans in place ourselves. Yeah,

843
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 1: and I think I mean that, if anything, that only

844
00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 1: hurts the police when people realize that on their own,

845
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:56,080
Speaker 1: you know, when they're like, oh yeah, y'all really don't

846
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,960
Speaker 1: do ship at all for us. You know, Like I

847
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 1: get sometimes people feel safe when they see that squad

848
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:03,279
Speaker 1: car or something and they feel sketched out or something.

849
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,799
Speaker 1: But that's not actually, that's not that's not how we

850
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,279
Speaker 1: derive our safety. That's not where are That's not the

851
00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:11,319
Speaker 1: source of our stability as as people at all. Like

852
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,760
Speaker 1: I've been in movie theaters where there's a police officer

853
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:15,600
Speaker 1: or security guard right when you go to a movie

854
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:18,319
Speaker 1: like on a big weekend or whatever, and I never

855
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,360
Speaker 1: go to the and like, hey, that cops gonna save me.

856
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,239
Speaker 1: I look at that exit and like how fast can

857
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:24,799
Speaker 1: I run out of there if anything. Yeah, you know

858
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:30,240
Speaker 1: that's my instinct now, right. Anyways, the yeah, it really

859
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:33,600
Speaker 1: does seem like, I don't know, a concerted effort. I

860
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:38,320
Speaker 1: don't I'm still of course, yeah, but like, is it

861
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 1: is the thing driving this, the fact that the paper

862
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:47,239
Speaker 1: like is involved in some like back rooms deals. Is

863
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 1: it just that they depend on the police as sourcing

864
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:55,440
Speaker 1: and like the if it bleeds the leads dynamic like

865
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:58,720
Speaker 1: makes it so that that is their most important source.

866
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 1: Like that makes sense to me, But this is it?

867
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:05,279
Speaker 1: Like it to this point that has always been my explanation.

868
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 1: Like the media the police are you know, in a

869
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 1: handshake deal and like that is why we get basically

870
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 1: the police digest in in our papers and and on

871
00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 1: the local news. But this like feels concerted, Like this

872
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 1: feels like they're getting editorial like guidance, right, And I

873
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 1: think really just it all boils down to the fact

874
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:31,000
Speaker 1: that people will not stand up to the police. Ever,

875
00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 1: mayors can't do it it, like no elected official can

876
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,239
Speaker 1: do it. So how the funk is a newspaper going

877
00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:40,240
Speaker 1: to do it? And I get that, Like it starts

878
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 1: off with this sort of like you know, mutually beneficial relationship,

879
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,480
Speaker 1: but like, give me a scoop, I'll write, you're skewed

880
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,800
Speaker 1: version of this reality. But I think now it's like

881
00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 1: almost like reflective, like they're so there's such a habit

882
00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: to not really examine what the role in the of

883
00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 1: like policing or the waste of money is that it's

884
00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 1: like I just will default right to yep, yep, yep.

885
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,120
Speaker 1: We'll go with whatever you got. And I think the

886
00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:08,279
Speaker 1: other hard part about it is when you have just

887
00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 1: in general, a lot of people who are ascending to

888
00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: journalism in these places, they're not as connected with the

889
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:19,240
Speaker 1: reality of like what working people like people in poverty,

890
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,879
Speaker 1: what life is like if that, you know, I think

891
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,800
Speaker 1: they just view it as like, yeah, because poverty is chaotic,

892
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: that it's like and then these people are so it's

893
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:29,480
Speaker 1: just you don't know what's going on out there, and

894
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,880
Speaker 1: we don't really need to examine that further to understand

895
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:34,560
Speaker 1: human beings. Will just take it from the perspective of

896
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:40,879
Speaker 1: more carcer role technology, more spending, more prison and that's

897
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:45,960
Speaker 1: the solution. Yeah. They lead their story about the shooting

898
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:50,000
Speaker 1: with saying that the shooting is reminiscent of a string

899
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 1: of other incidents in recent years, and they don't say

900
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 1: which things are. They don't say up to your reader,

901
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:04,440
Speaker 1: protect your into a trend when the thing that is

902
00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:08,600
Speaker 1: noteworthy is that this is not, you know, a thing

903
00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 1: that happens very often, right, Yeah, zoom out more, you know,

904
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:14,879
Speaker 1: like ask why we have so many people who are

905
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:17,920
Speaker 1: you know, in terrible situations, whether they have lack of

906
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,359
Speaker 1: mental health support, end up becoming a doomsday profit on

907
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:24,319
Speaker 1: YouTube where they're like talking all kinds of wild ship

908
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:29,360
Speaker 1: and you're like, mmmm, as is just not enough cops?

909
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:34,360
Speaker 1: Not enough cops? Also, you should be given a gun

910
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,360
Speaker 1: at the turnstile and heading into the subway. You know,

911
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 1: I'm straight up Jesus. Yeah, well, we'll see, we'll see

912
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:44,480
Speaker 1: what happens. We'll see what kind of genius solutions we

913
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,720
Speaker 1: see coming off after this. Because now a lot of people,

914
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:48,960
Speaker 1: especially in like New York twitters, do you hear that

915
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,840
Speaker 1: everyone's talking about like, oh now they got cops everywhere

916
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: in the subway, like even when they're there, it wasn't working,

917
00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:58,960
Speaker 1: like and and it's weird because a lot of the

918
00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 1: tone from people does feel they're like what the fuck

919
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:05,440
Speaker 1: is this all for? Yeah, you know, we have all,

920
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 1: you couldn't it took you this long to catch them

921
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:10,160
Speaker 1: for these three specific cameras stopped working with all this

922
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:15,160
Speaker 1: tem like nearly eleven billion dollar budget. Mhm alright, c J.

923
00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:16,799
Speaker 1: Before we let you go, though, I want to I

924
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 1: do want to hear a little bit about what running

925
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:24,680
Speaker 1: the brake what like and just NBA fashion from your perspective,

926
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,520
Speaker 1: Like where are we are we at a high point?

927
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:31,000
Speaker 1: Like obviously the high point is like Larry Bird and

928
00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:34,040
Speaker 1: his kind of thing, but like it's mostly gonna be

929
00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:38,960
Speaker 1: Larry Bird and um and Josh Kiddy um, the modern

930
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:41,399
Speaker 1: day Larry Bird. No. I mean it's like we we've

931
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,360
Speaker 1: seen in the last few years how NBA and sports

932
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:46,799
Speaker 1: coverage has gone past the xs and os and the

933
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 1: wins and losses, um so, and into like the league

934
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:53,200
Speaker 1: fits and the hey what you know, the tunnel entrances,

935
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 1: and the coverage begins when a player is walking out

936
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,680
Speaker 1: of their bus in the car and walking into the

937
00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:02,200
Speaker 1: arena from Russell Westbrook to the Kyle Kuzma too shy

938
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:06,239
Speaker 1: gillis Alexander like those guys, and so we we kind

939
00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:08,640
Speaker 1: of thought, you know, there hasn't been daily coverage of

940
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:10,640
Speaker 1: that and like the trends and sort of like the

941
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 1: trend watch and what's going on off the court. So

942
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:15,960
Speaker 1: Running the Brake Is is sort of your weekly coverage

943
00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:18,680
Speaker 1: UM co hosted by Alex Wong, who is a really

944
00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:21,479
Speaker 1: great NBA journalist out of Toronto. UM wrote the book

945
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:24,680
Speaker 1: cover story. But yeah, we're we're sort of adding that

946
00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,640
Speaker 1: dedication and commitment to that sort of pop culture in

947
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 1: fashion and trend coverage to the NBA. What is there

948
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:35,320
Speaker 1: a trend that you're excited about the Is there a dress,

949
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 1: like somebody who's fits are like extra dope, like the

950
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:41,000
Speaker 1: new to the league or that's new to the league.

951
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I'm trying to think who I

952
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,160
Speaker 1: really like it was on the come up, you know,

953
00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:49,880
Speaker 1: because the heavy hitters we see him every time, the

954
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: one this guy is like very close to being at

955
00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 1: the top of the list, Jordan Clarkson. I mean I

956
00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:57,640
Speaker 1: had like a little bit of a bias towards him

957
00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:01,040
Speaker 1: because he's half Filipino. But like I've really think in

958
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:04,320
Speaker 1: fashion in general, skinny jeans do not wear skinny jeans anymore.

959
00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:07,200
Speaker 1: But like and so Jordan Clarkson has just like very

960
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:11,200
Speaker 1: much very baggy and like almost just like extreme norm

961
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:14,040
Speaker 1: core to you know, just I think he was just

962
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:17,759
Speaker 1: recently wearing, um, the Camel Joe windbreaker. Like do you

963
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 1: guys remember the Camel Joe sort of swag and merch

964
00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 1: from back in the day where people would collect like

965
00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:26,319
Speaker 1: the yeah, the camel box office cigarette boxes and they

966
00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 1: were making like legitimate merch. So he's been kind of

967
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,480
Speaker 1: like I think he's like built a collection of this stuff.

968
00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:35,239
Speaker 1: And so yeah, I mean I know myself as like

969
00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 1: a vintage street where collector. I went on Deepop and

970
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:40,640
Speaker 1: eBay and started looking for that stuff. So I think

971
00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,719
Speaker 1: he's he's there's guys who can sort of like dress well,

972
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:46,040
Speaker 1: and I think that's like sort of dictated by a

973
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,760
Speaker 1: lot of fashion people out there, But like Jordan Clarkson

974
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:49,960
Speaker 1: is a guy who I think is sort of like

975
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,319
Speaker 1: leading those movements. I think Russell Westbrook has like led

976
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:55,280
Speaker 1: those moments, uh and movements and and p J. Tucker

977
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,239
Speaker 1: in terms of the type of sneakers and it's just

978
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 1: not like the most expensive stuff. It's you know, what's

979
00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,920
Speaker 1: the story behind some of these pieces? And I hope,

980
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,040
Speaker 1: like you know, running the Break, we can kind of

981
00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 1: just get super super in depth on stuff like that. Yeah.

982
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,319
Speaker 1: I mean, also, you know, I don't every single one

983
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:15,839
Speaker 1: of my Filipino friends. They weren't caught slipping out here

984
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:19,480
Speaker 1: with fashion. So yeah, what's Jalen How's Jalen Green's fashion?

985
00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:21,280
Speaker 1: He feels he seems he doesn't seem like he's taking

986
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 1: big swings, but here he dresses all right, he's getting there.

987
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,840
Speaker 1: I mean. The funniest thing about Jalen Green's fashion, and

988
00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 1: and I think we'll get into this, like the business

989
00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:31,520
Speaker 1: aspect of it is that he signed with Adidas. But

990
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 1: he's clearly a guy who like loves air Forces and dunks,

991
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:38,880
Speaker 1: and so now he has to wear these bape shoes

992
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:42,480
Speaker 1: that are are essentially air Force yeah bass like air

993
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 1: Force bootlegs and knockoffs. And so it's a it's a

994
00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:49,080
Speaker 1: trend that I really love where these these young players

995
00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 1: were like clearly Nike heads growing up, but then they're

996
00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:56,400
Speaker 1: signed that they want like, oh man, I love leaning

997
00:57:56,640 --> 00:58:01,360
Speaker 1: sportswear man. Yeah, could so honored to be rocking their shoe. Yeah.

998
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 1: So it's just it's one seeing these guys just trying

999
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,840
Speaker 1: to like figure out how to how to keep repping

1000
00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 1: that stuff. So yeah, I think it's gonna be episodes

1001
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,280
Speaker 1: like that, covering, covering the silly, and and and not

1002
00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:13,880
Speaker 1: so serious, but with that sort of very like in

1003
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:19,640
Speaker 1: depth focus, right analysis. Yeah, nice man's wearing off light

1004
00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:23,160
Speaker 1: ones in this old picture that better be prepre deal

1025
00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:36,960
Speaker 1: It's almost like reading back someone's joke. But I think

1026
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,120
Speaker 1: it was pretty boy navy. How do they know an
