00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: A for the short show title or whatever we're calling it.

5
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 1: I'm Miles. I'm joined by super producer Becca. What's up Becca? Hello, Hello, hello, hello, hello,

6
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: Hello to you the listener. Uh, let's talk about what

7
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 1: is trending. First thing is trending is easy Day because

8
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 1: and look, that's not an actual national day because you know,

9
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: I would have actually described it as such at the

10
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: top of the Daily Show. This is just I think

11
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 1: Adidas basically saying, yo, man, by all this easy ship

12
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,319
Speaker 1: we got, and I think that's you know, yeah, yeah, sure,

13
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 1: but they don't have like a Jordan's Day. You know,

14
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: we're clearly they're like because they're rolling out a bunch

15
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: of easy stuff I guess today or whatever. And oh

16
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: you did you? Okay, I just saw like the headlines

17
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: and I was like, okay. But Kanye apparently was saying

18
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: he does not he has nothing to do with this.

19
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: Actually he's very upset about it. Yeah, he said, yeah,

20
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: I was gonna say this DM that someone sad screen capped.

21
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: I don't know where this is this real? Do we

22
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 1: know this? I mean it keeps circulating, like many news

23
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: sites have posted this DM so like it seems legitimate,

24
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: but who knows, because I mean he does have problems

25
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: with He's been talking about, like, you know, a little

26
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: spicy about Adidas because he definitely felt slighted after like

27
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: there were some images of some slides that came out

28
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: that looked easy ish and he's like, this is me,

29
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: y'all are just doing with my ideas? I need to

30
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 1: have a conversation with the CEO yesterday. Um so this

31
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: fits into what I see that being the tension between

32
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: Kanye or Yea or Easy or Jesus Christ or whatever

33
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: we're calling him, uh and Adidas. But yeah, part of

34
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: me is like, I'm sorry, is that what your if

35
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: your contract says that, sir you, I'm not really sure

36
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: what the fun you can do? This is you may

37
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: have got out corporationed by the massive corporation And it's

38
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: like did you read it? You know, like it's like

39
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: and look, I think that sucks, you know because I

40
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, ship your lawyer should have got that, um,

41
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 1: unless you were to do behind the deal. You're like,

42
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: I will be my own lawyer. Um, in which case

43
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: who knows? But uh whatever, go ahead, but be mad.

44
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 1: But the d M is wild, it's long. I don't

45
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: want to read it. But there's like not one period

46
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,360
Speaker 1: in this DM and it ends with God step in,

47
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: so you know, yeah, step in the name of love

48
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: if you can't. Um. Actually it's not a good song

49
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 1: to talk about anyway. Let's talk about w W three.

50
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: World War three is trending because Nancy Pelosi is in Taiwan,

51
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: and the build up to this trip, to lead up

52
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: to this trip, like military visions at the Pentagon are like,

53
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: we suggest not going there as the third highest ranking

54
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,040
Speaker 1: member of the United States government, only second to a

55
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,119
Speaker 1: vice president in terms of like chain of command or

56
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: the succession because the last time a Speaker of the

57
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: House went was and that was New Gingrich and he

58
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: did that because Bill Clinton was the president, So it's

59
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: hard to look like this was like a coordinated thing

60
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: from the presidency. China, on the other hand, is like,

61
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: you know, there were there was one Chinese official who

62
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: was like, if she comes through with military planes, that's

63
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,519
Speaker 1: an invasion in our book, and a lot of people

64
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: are like, this isn't why are you You don't need

65
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,519
Speaker 1: to do this. The the relationship is very complex, and

66
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, a lot of people

67
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: are like the Republicans loved it because they're so anti

68
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: anything outside of the US are like, yeah, you're not

69
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: soft on China. Provoke them. I meanwhile, other people like

70
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: this could mean, this could mean, this could give China

71
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: a reason to do something a little bit out of

72
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: step with things to sort of re estate say oh

73
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: you want to puff your chest up. Okay, here's what

74
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: we're going to do. Maybe we'll test some missiles around

75
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: around Taiwan. See what happened there. So I don't know,

76
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: um does That part mostly was people tweeting about World

77
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: War three because they said I want to see I'm

78
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: just hoping the world will end. And I was like,

79
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: oh my god, come on, y'all listen to get to

80
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: Emil right now. Twitter with the World War three takes. Honestly,

81
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: Twitter is kind of a scary I mean, I am

82
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: only on Twitter for the show, famously, but as I

83
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: was looking at things for the show, I was like,

84
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: it was like New York City trends gore, and I

85
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: was like, is it Al Gore, let me click some

86
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: of the most disturbing images I've ever seen in my life. Um,

87
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: if you saw my Facebook like this, yeah, it's because

88
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I should have never clicked that.

89
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: So you know, Twitter is a darkness? Yeah who thought?

90
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 1: Who thought? Um? World is in a bit of a

91
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: bit of emotional flux constantly. Another thing that's trending is

92
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: immunity because guess what. Um it has to do with

93
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: immunity and police, but not in the way that you'd

94
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: like it. A federal judge in d C basically dismissed lawsuits.

95
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: Refused to dismiss lawsuits brought by Capitol police officers against

96
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 1: Trump because they were saying, I got sucked up on

97
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 1: January six. I'm coming after this dude who set the

98
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,799
Speaker 1: whole thing off and told people to act goonishly. Uh

99
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: and guess and Trump was like, I have absolute immunity,

100
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: and this is like, no, no, they can, they can

101
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 1: they this, I will let these lawsuits go forward. So, um,

102
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,799
Speaker 1: I'm sure Trump is not feeling that famously loves immunity famously,

103
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: but not not this time. All right, let's take a

104
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 1: quick break. We'll be right back to tell you about

105
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: some more stuff after this, and we're back. Airbnb is

106
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 1: trending because I don't know if people heard about this.

107
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: Maybe it did, maybe it didn't. You may have seen

108
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: this viral TikTok video of this person calling out a

109
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: very interesting Airbnb listing known as the panther Burn Cottage

110
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 1: at Belmont Plantation, and people are like, huh okay. This user,

111
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: I feel his name is Lawyer Winton, this black guy.

112
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,799
Speaker 1: He's start of green screening himself behind the Airbnb listing,

113
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: and what this is is described as this. This is

114
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: from the Airbnb listening quote. This particular structure, the panther

115
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: Burn Cabin, is an eighteen thirties slave cabin from the

116
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: extant panther Burn Plantation to the south of Belmont. It

117
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 1: has also been used as a tenant, sharecroppers cabin and

118
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: a medical office for local farmers and their families. Um

119
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: this place has four point nine for like a four

120
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,840
Speaker 1: point nine rating, and this lawyer was going to be like,

121
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 1: just look at his sixty eight reviews all from white

122
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: people who are describing this structure, that that was how

123
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: enslaved people. That's quote memorable. Highly recommend watching the Sunset

124
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: enjoyed everything about our stay, the cottage, the history, the tour, breakfast.

125
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: It was great, said Christen Um. Another one said a

126
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: quote delightful place to step into history. And as lawyer

127
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: Winston points out, this is just you know, or lawyer

128
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: Winton apologies pointing out, this is more about like the

129
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 1: you know, how do I put this Airbnb washing of

130
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: terrible history, like to just reduce this slave quarters to

131
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: be like, it's really great, it's part of your history.

132
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: Slavery wasn't a brutal, awful thing that in my mind,

133
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: this isn't a structure that has the worst energy in

134
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: it anywhere in the country aside from a few places

135
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: from history. Um, And I think that's I get why

136
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: that would make a few people outraged, But the listening

137
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: has been brought down. I mean, I'm looking at some

138
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: of the images of the airbb inside. I'm like that

139
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: because they of like basic yeah, well they like that

140
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: they have the two bunks, and they've basically restored it

141
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: to be like the slave quarters, but like a little

142
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 1: bit nicer like it is that is so dark. And

143
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: also I thought, maybe I'm misremembering news stories, but when

144
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: Pinters had that big um pull out of all the

145
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: plantations on the wedding boards or whatever, like they removed

146
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: all plantations from winning boards. I thought Airbnb also acted

147
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: and was like yeah, like we're taking plantations off Airbnb,

148
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: but maybe I'm misremembering that. And this is bananas, this

149
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: is uh. And Greenville, Um, Mississippi is like such a

150
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: historic place in terms of like Southern history when it

151
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: comes to like slavery, Like I actually remember learning about Greenville, Mississippi,

152
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: like in my you know, youth of college of like

153
00:08:56,120 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: learning about American history. So it's just so dark, like yeah,

154
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: and it's a place where the like white people of

155
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: America can go to have the history obscured and completely

156
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: whitewashed and into like a fun place to check out

157
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: the sunset rather than this was a structure that you know,

158
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: created untold trauma for many people. But the ratings are great,

159
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: though you really should you have to take a bath

160
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: in the claw foot tub and check out the sunset,

161
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 1: like I'm sure some of the previous tenants say. It's

162
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: like I can't imagine the people that were like saw

163
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 1: that listing was like lit went stayed put a positive review,

164
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 1: Like who those people are? Like I can envision them,

165
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: and they are quite and they are racist, but it

166
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 1: is just such a wild like it is so crazy

167
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: how history does not affect you. You know, it's like

168
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: it's like this very disassociative like wow, like it is yeah,

169
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: like what greater? Yeah? What what? What greater way to

170
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: deny the atrocity of chattel slavery then to vacation in

171
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 1: a place that was the scene of the crime and

172
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: be like it's actually fantastic. It's to the point something

173
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: that you founded by a ghost. I hope you did.

174
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 1: Some sharecroppers that I'm sure had it real easy. They

175
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,680
Speaker 1: must have loved it. I wonder what the rent was

176
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 1: for them, Like can you think about how bad the

177
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: rent is or I live so actually to them a

178
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: favor because they you know, they gave them that little house,

179
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: you know, to live where they work, and they got

180
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: paid like sounds like forty acres. But you know, like

181
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: we're not going to have you know, just monumental change overnight.

182
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: So anyway, um, don't please please don't have it. Don't

183
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: don't get don't celebrate shit at a plantation unless you're

184
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: watching it burned down. Sir Brian put A really good

185
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,319
Speaker 1: point in the chat here. These people have never thought

186
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: for a second how terrifying it would be to a

187
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: white person to actually be working on a plantation. Absolutely,

188
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 1: just and I'll leave it at that. Yeah, I think

189
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: the yeah, I don't even know if they concept exists,

190
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 1: and it must because that's like sort of helps drive

191
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: like the idea that you know, there's everything is so fragile,

192
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,479
Speaker 1: like but what if we do what if we experience

193
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,599
Speaker 1: the things we perpetrated against other people? But then that

194
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: would you wouldn't be putting those positive reviews to like

195
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: like to them, it's like going to a haunted house,

196
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like like the fantastical element,

197
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: like the the mystery, the like, um, the fiction of it,

198
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 1: right is how it feels to be showing up at

199
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: one of those plantation homes. Like to them, it's like,

200
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: who's go kokie? Like ghost stories are spooky, but not

201
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: like this is actual history that has created like generational

202
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: trauma for many Black Americans, all black Americans in this country. Yeah,

203
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: I mean there was something that like the people who

204
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: like run the foundation of the former plantation or like,

205
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: well we've identified some of the people who work there,

206
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 1: and we dedicated a square to them. It's like and

207
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: it's like, what give all your money to them? Literally

208
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 1: you should be mainking, zero income and all of it

209
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: should go to those people. Yeah, you should actually sell

210
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: it to them. They have that back. M hmm. Not

211
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,719
Speaker 1: gonna do that. Can't do that, Just not when we

212
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: got these reviews flying in that are so positive. Next up,

213
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,079
Speaker 1: monkeypok State of emergency. California just declared a state of emergency,

214
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: joining Illinois and New York as well. But yeah, it's

215
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: still very very difficult for people to get vaccine appointments.

216
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: The messaging around it is still very homophobic. The qualifications

217
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 1: are oddly specific and exclude whole swaths of people that

218
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 1: are equally exposed. We'll talk a little bit more about

219
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: the naming quagmire that, like the World Health Organization is like,

220
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: I don't know, monkey pox is like racist that too,

221
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,719
Speaker 1: But I just want to give a warning, like if

222
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: you have prisis or exema or an autoimmune disorder, be

223
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: like extra cautious. I have really really bad ex am

224
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: out of my hands, Like right now I have like

225
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 1: open blisters on my hands. Um, they say, you know,

226
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 1: obviously monkeypox is transmitted through open sores, through skin to

227
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: skin contact through pores. So like you having an autoimmune

228
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: disorder like EXIMA or sirisis you are more susceptible no

229
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 1: matter what l G B, t Q or not affiliation

230
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: you have. So just be very cautious. If you live

231
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: in a very highly populous city you take public transit,

232
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 1: like try to not touch you know, use Clark's wipes,

233
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: just stay vigilant. I know, I'm personally pretty freaked out

234
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 1: for that reason, Like I'm like, where you to go

235
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: to the gym or you know, be on public transit

236
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,199
Speaker 1: because like those are areas that are highly populous, and

237
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,479
Speaker 1: you don't have to be gay to be in those spaces,

238
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: so you know, but you do have to be queer

239
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,839
Speaker 1: to get a vaccine in New York. So yeah, and

240
00:13:54,920 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: just like that very overly myopic focus on like who

241
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: gets vaccinated when it's like like many virologists are pointing to,

242
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: it's like it's allowing things to spread a lot quicker

243
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 1: and sooner, the like Biden can declare of national emergency,

244
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 1: the better like funding that will be begin to flow

245
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: to the operations that are trying to stem the wave

246
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: of infections. Uh, and hopefully doesn't become endemic. Yeah. I

247
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: went through the the I guess like Preventative Care on

248
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: the CC the New York City c set website or whatever,

249
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: and it was so wild, like from all the research

250
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: I did and then reading that, I was like, this

251
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: is so homophobic. It hurts. Like it's like basically like yeah,

252
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: like try not to have sex partners, and like you know,

253
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: it's like it's not labeled an s t I yet potentially,

254
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: but like it's like everyone's like it's not an s

255
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 1: t I ever and s t I like you don't

256
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: need to be having sex to get it. Like obviously

257
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 1: having sex you're exchanging lots of fluids of course, but

258
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: like it is not requirement to get it. And it's

259
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: like yeah, just like make sure you're wearing conda, Like

260
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: if you have a sex partner that has monkey pop,

261
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: just like make sure they're covered up. And I'm like none,

262
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: like literally none of the preventative care talked about it,

263
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: like it had nothing to do with not sex, Like

264
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 1: all the preventatives like sex related, like it's s t I.

265
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: It was so fucked up anyway, because you know, maybe

266
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: if you could not have sex for a little bit.

267
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: Maybe you wouldn't get it. When are you people? Like

268
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: a whore? You are? Like that was the mind reading,

269
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 1: like who wrote this? Someone's like the ghost of their

270
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: conservative grandmother anyway. And then finally, Jake Novak is trending.

271
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: Beck you put this and I said, what is Jake Novak?

272
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 1: And what is happening? I feel like, you know in

273
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: my little TikTok corner Internet news. So a few weeks ago,

274
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: I think like six or eight weeks ago. Um, Jake

275
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: Novak went viral on TikTok because he made this audition

276
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: video for the next SNL cast member. It's very musical,

277
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: like theater kid asked. It's like giving Linmo and Miranda

278
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: like like um rap rhyming style. Um. It's a little embarrassing.

279
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: It's a little cringe e but you know, harmless by

280
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 1: all means, Like it's something that you watch the video,

281
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 1: you go, oh, and it's him. It's him wholeheartedly of

282
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: trying saying like SNL notice me yeah, and he like

283
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: obviously he is a theater kid, like he enjoys the stuff.

284
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: He you know, his videos are high quality content, like

285
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: he it's clear he works very hard on them, like

286
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 1: he has a really nice camera set up. He you

287
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: know edits all of them and himself. So and I'm

288
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 1: sure this children die in the school that's in that's

289
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: from the video. Yeah, that's from Yeah. So he's talented,

290
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: he can sing. It's just like he's definitely not for everyone,

291
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: right and like is he for SNL? Probably not. But

292
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: the way the Internet took that video and just destroyed him,

293
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: it was so depressing. It's very reminisce of um, what

294
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: was the story we were talking about early, not couch guy,

295
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: but also couch guy. Like that's a great example too.

296
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: It just goes into this history of many oh West Elm,

297
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 1: Caleb Western, Caleb Couch and I similar things. It's different

298
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 1: for those two because they you know, questionable on the

299
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: morals of those men in those videos. But you know

300
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: this kid simply you know, he has a passion. It's

301
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: clear he's trying to make it as a content creator

302
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,199
Speaker 1: like many people are out there. But TikTok can be

303
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: such a like toxic place and put you where Unlike

304
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: old Internet, you could have your niche, you could stay

305
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: in your niche area of the Internet and be praised

306
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 1: in your niche. But like TikTok can be so expansive

307
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: and viral that you end up on the wrong for

308
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: you page and then all of a sudden, it is

309
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 1: just like hate vitriol for no reason. And the Internet

310
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 1: has made people so brave in a way that they

311
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 1: never would have been if they were confronted in real

312
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 1: life about the things they say online to other people. Right,

313
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 1: it's just disturbing what has happened to him, since I

314
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: feel really bad that, like people I've seen videos lately,

315
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: people bothering him at work. He works at Disney. He's

316
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: a cast member at Disney. Like people are harassing and

317
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: being like SNL's next cast member and filming him while

318
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,880
Speaker 1: he's at work. People, according to this article he did

319
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 1: with Vulture, I've been damn ng his family members telling

320
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: them that he's dead or like other handful things like

321
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,439
Speaker 1: it's just like what did he do to you? Right?

322
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: Just was a guy trying to make it as an

323
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 1: SNLS next casser. Because there's like also the because the algorithm.

324
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: It's like Twitter too, right, where like if you start

325
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: talking about the topic to JR on the platform, it's

326
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 1: an easy way to get more followers, like if you're

327
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: because if someone like likes a topic and you're the

328
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 1: one going off on like the Beyonce album or whatever.

329
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 1: Just by virtue of the conversation. You can get a

330
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: lot of traction by just commenting on what's happening. And

331
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: you see that, like on TikTok. I noticed it a

332
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: lot when people do at videos and things like that

333
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: to be able to be like, okay, let me jump

334
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: in on this trend and it just sounds like that's

335
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: just that can just go completely out of whack and

336
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,479
Speaker 1: turns into oh okay, so now we're dog piling on someone.

337
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: That's the way to get on the algorithm. I don't

338
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: know who this human is. I don't give a fun

339
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 1: because I'm trying to get my ship going because them

340
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: they made this video saying can tell me why um

341
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 1: children dying in the school? And it is catchy and

342
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: like his content like and it is catchy, yeah it's

343
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: and its content isn't like like it's high quality content,

344
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 1: but and it's probably better than most of the things,

345
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: like the people teaching him, you know, aren't making quality content.

346
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: But just have anything. Leave this man alone, Leave people

347
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: the internet alone. Sometimes you're if you're typing something, maybe

348
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 1: think like three times about it before and then just

349
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: delete it. So there's your voice is sometimes very much

350
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: unnecessary in the comment section. Most can tell you of

351
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: the time the it is unless you have something positive

352
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: to say or whatever. But that's the nature of our like,

353
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 1: you know, our world, where people feel increasingly powerless, and

354
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 1: at times the most potent you feel is just to

355
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: be able to dunk on somebody who's I get it, like,

356
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: it's probably there's annym that what do you think you're

357
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: going to get on? Motherfucking so fuck you? But man,

358
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 1: people are just trying to live. Yeah, leave him alone.

359
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 1: I came around to Jake Novak. But watch if this

360
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: guy is on some like alright ship, like we find

361
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 1: out he returns, it's like an al right commentator because

362
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 1: of this this hurt that he's experienced. Get me off

363
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 1: that train. But we'll see, let's hope not. He just

364
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: seems like a you know, just a theater kid trying

365
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: to make it working at Disney, and just let him be.

366
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: Leave him alone. If you don't like his content or

367
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 1: anyone on the internet that matter, unless it is hateful speech,

368
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,080
