00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: history that's revealing about who you are? I have spent

7
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: a lot of time over the last couple of days

8
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:40,200
Speaker 1: looking for curtains for the apartment that I'm living in,

9
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: and I I think I'll never find them. I don't

10
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 1: know why. And I want I want one panel curtains

11
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: for my kitchen, and every kitchen set of curtains seems

12
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: to be like a two piece bathing suit with like

13
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: a little bit at the top and then like a

14
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: little bit in the middle, and uh, and I can't

15
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: believe that. I'm like, this is the height of sickening domesticity,

16
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: where I'm just like, no, those curtains are too are

17
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,119

00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 1: not gonna be able to I need curtains that give

19
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: me privacy and lets the light in. Like it's a

20
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: really unpleasant, shitty errand I wish I had cooler. You know.

21
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: I also spent a lot of time searching the guy

22
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: who wrote the songs Spirit in the Sky. Oh well,

23
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: what's would you learn about him? Well, first of all,

24
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: as much as I want to talk orthodox, June named

25
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: Norman green Baham from Boston area. He uh was He

26
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: heard gospel on television, thought that sounds easy, sat down

27
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 1: and wrote the top charting gospel song of all time

28
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: in thirteen minutes. Us it took him thirteen and then

29
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: he looked at the clock. It was twelve five. He

30
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: looked at the clock, Ghett, it was twelve toy. It

31
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: took him thirteen minutes to write Spirit in the Sky,

32
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: which has just charted more than any It's not the

33
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: best gospel song, it's the highest charting gospel song. And

34
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: people send him angry letters because he says. There's a

35
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: lyric where he says, I'm not a sinner, I've never sinned,

36
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: but I got a friend in Jesus. And people send

37
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: him letters about how we're all sinners, and he writes

38
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: back like I'm Jewish, I don't really give a ship.

39
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't say so gospel song. I was

40
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: thinking of a different song, but that that's the the

41
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: Ghanda Da Da Da to the Spirit in the Sky.

42
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: It's like a seventies like it's like a seventies rock

43
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: song that is about Jesus, right, Like it doesn't feel

44
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: like actual like the genre of gospel music. Right it

45
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: was classified Sorry, I mean I don't I don't know,

46
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: but it was. It's it's listed as it was. It

47
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: was gospel charting. It charted gospel. I mean, I guess

48
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: it's about Jesus, so that's all you need. Right. It's

49
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: the second most requested song at funerals really, yeah, behind

50
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: Danny Better. Um. That's so interesting when so was he

51
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: doing it almost as a It was like here, here,

52
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,959
Speaker 1: these these idiots to love this because it kind of

53
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: feels like he's like, oh, that looks really easy. He

54
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: doesn't it a joke. I think he was sort of

55
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 1: like Captain Beefheart band called like the Eggplant that Ate

56
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: Chicago or something like that, and he wrote this as

57
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 1: a joke and people were like, this is just such

58
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: a great gospel song. He's like, no, it's a fucking joke.

59
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: And that's that's so interesting. That happens so often we

60
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: I've I've talked about it before. But the fact that

61
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: uh that Steelers Wheel Songs stuck in the middle with

62
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: you was them doing like basically seeing that Bob Dylan

63
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: was so successful and being like, we're gonna make fun

64
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: of Bob Dylan with like a bunch of shitty Bob

65
00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:01,839
Speaker 1: Dylan metaphors about clowns and jokers and like do an

66
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: actual shitty Bob Dylan voice during the song. They're like,

67
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: GOLs loved me Joka, and like it's there by far

68
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: their biggest hit, the number one song to get tortured too.

69
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if most people know that, but that

70
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: song is behind Danny Boy is the number. Is the

71
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: number If you haven't seen Reservoir Dogs, that JOKEO Meg

72
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: zero sends to you, but it is. I think everyone's

73
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: seen that. I think we can it's I mean, yeah,

74
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know why they call it the

75
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: gospel maybe just because the lyrics, because I wouldn't say

76
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,679
Speaker 1: like it has like the actual structure of traditional gospel

77
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: music like sonically, but yeah, I guess, I guess like

78
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: in that sense, and they're like, well, if it's Jesus base,

79
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 1: like that's we'll put it in there in the gospel,

80
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: maybe a bit of willns X When they're saying he

81
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: wasn't country, it's a it's a hundred percent of rock song. Also,

82
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: it was issued under the name Norman green Bomb no

83
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: one like is this guy Sam Cook or something like

84
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: it was. Uh yeah, it seems like it belonged squarely

85
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: in the uh in the same category as the Jeremiah

86
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: was a bullfrog. Um, well, what are some other like

87
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: rock songs that are of that genre of like rock songs?

88
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 1: It seemed like they could have been written by a

89
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: five year old, But they rule for sure that's not

90
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: an insult the Mash. The theme to Mash was Robert

91
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: Altman said, Okay, so for the theme music, we need

92
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 1: something that sounds like it was written by a ten

93
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: year old, like literally written by a ten year old,

94
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: and whoever was writing it couldn't do it. So Robert

95
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: Altman's son, Michael wrote the music and he was like

96
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: thirteen years old. And so there was a time where

97
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 1: the thirteen year old son of Robert Altman was pulling

98
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 1: in more money and royalties for Mash than Robert Altman

99
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: was writing music. Is that true? It really is? Well,

100
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I may be messing up the names. Maybe

101
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: it's not Michael Altman, but I think it is. But

102
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: the song is called Suicide Is Painless, and which that kid,

103
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: that's a thirteen year old name. That's a that's a

104
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: thirteen year old coming up with that title, because that's

105
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: some real angsty show. I hate to hate to pull

106
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: some some string like number crunch here he was fifteen.

107
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: Apparently he was fifteen. I'm so sorry. What's his name?

108
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: Michael Altman? Though? Was in the name you did? You

109
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 1: got the Michael Altman two years off on the age,

110
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 1: so and I added some precocity to that kid. Yeah.

111
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: And Elvis also was doing like a bit. He was

112
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 1: doing a fake character to make the session musicians laugh,

113
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: and that's where he got like at first he was

114
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: singing like himself, like he would sing, and then he

115
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: started doing like a who don't like things like that

116
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: and people were like, no, that actually slaps keep doing that.

117
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: And that's how he came up with the thing, after

118
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: like hours of just trying to sing in a straightforward

119
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: with what I was I was. I opened for Beck

120
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: for a little while on the road. Check when people

121
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: star know, but when people still did that, I did

122
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: stand up and it was great. And one of his

123
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: um one of the folks that was Tori with them,

124
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: told me that when you know that Loser, which is

125
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: one of his most famous songs, where he was in

126
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: the studio and he kept sucking something up. And I've

127
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 1: not I've not clarified this directly with Beck, but I've

128
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: had this confirmed by other people, which is that he

129
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: was like he started saying he started saying about how

130
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: he was a loser, and they're like, we're going to

131
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: use that. Yeah, he's like loser babies, Why don't I mean,

132
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: like he's he's unbelievable, So it's not like he's he's

133
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: sunk up. But I mean, yeah, I can imagine that

134
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: people doing ship for laughs. Musicians are so painfully earnest

135
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: that sometimes when they're occasionally not taking himself seriously, maybe

136
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: it's better than the stuff that they're doing because get

137
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: out of their own way, right, and it like just

138
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: get by doing something silly or something, it just like

139
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: gets the it clears the signal for them or whatever

140
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: whatever it is. Also, there's something about the alchemy of

141
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: doing something simple. Yeah, and like you know my favor

142
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: there's a piece by Eric Johnson, who is a great guitarist,

143
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: called Cliffs of Dover, which is like famously like one

144
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: of the hardest pieces to play on guitar, but it's

145
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: got a really simple riff at the center of it.

146
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: And he was like, yeah, I was taking my groceries

147
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: in for the car road in like five minutes. Yeah,

148
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: sweet Child of Mine was a finger stretching exercise that

149
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,559
Speaker 1: Slash used to do. Yeah, there's like a bunch of

150
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: stories like that where it's just like these very simple

151
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: things and like musicians just are are too complicated. They

152
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: get too complicated with it. They're too advanced. You may know,

153
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: customed Over from being the hardest song to playing guitar

154
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: hero but it is very very good. I mean through

155
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 1: the fire and flames on, like theist mode is also

156
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: pretty pretty intense too. Yeah, uh, freaks out there. What

157
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: is something you think is underrated? Underrated? Is the Internet?

158
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 1: I have been without internet for almost a week, and

159
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: let me tell you, absolutely essential to our existence as

160
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: human beings. Now, I'm so lucky. My father sent me

161
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 1: a like terabyte hard drive filled with movies. That's what

162
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: I've had to watch lately. There's no streaming right now

163
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: in my house. I'llgrade my phone plan to a hot spot.

164
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 1: That thing is slow as hell. Uh Internet required for existence. Yeah,

165
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: so I'm guessing your move. The monopoly of Spectrum hasn't

166
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: come to bless your wires listen. So frustrating, I called

167
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: the called the landlord and I was like, Yo, we're

168
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: wired for Internet, right. They were like, no doubt, great,

169
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,199
Speaker 1: we got I've set up Internet since I was four.

170
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: I know how to do this. This is great. I

171
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 1: just set it up. They set it up. I get

172
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 1: the NonStop bleaking lights called spectrum, you know, fixure stuff.

173
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, hey, we're seeing you. You're here, Like,

174
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: we're not here. I promise you I know how to

175
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: do this. Internet not there. So then they send somebody

176
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: over that guy total jerk, was essentially like, oh, we

177
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 1: have to set up an entire new box for you

178
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 1: connected to your phone line because while you have an

179
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: Internet wire, you do not have our internet wire. What

180
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: does that mean? Still not quite sure. But they've got

181
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: to do construction and drill holes and walls and all

182
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: kinds of crazy things like we can come back in

183
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: a week, right, right, My corpse will let you in

184
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: Internet order groceries. What are we doing. I was like, okay,

185
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 1: you know what, Just go ahead, put the date down.

186
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call other companies and we'll see who can

187
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: get here faster. Like while calling A T and T

188
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: and they were like, we can do ten megabytes per

189
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: second equipment. I was like, out the door, do I

190
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 1: ever talk to me again? A T and T. I

191
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: can stream one thing a day my son ever again

192
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: Fiber were cables, but I'm getting ten neg Like oh god.

193
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: It in l A is just yeah, We'll randomly be

194
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: like we can't get to your house. Sorry. It's like,

195
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: oh yeah, I'm in the middle of the neighborhood. My

196
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: neighbor has like very your highest high speed internet. But

197
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: they're like, yeah, sorry, we we can't get there for

198
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: some reason. It's mind blowing. I don't understand why we

199
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: let internet companies. I had an add person come and

200
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: then tell me to get Spectrum showed up. I'm like, yo,

201
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: I need this ship now, like I needed fifteen minutes ago.

202
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 1: Like my whole life is on the internet, and like

203
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 1: I like, whatever has to happen. And they're like, yeah,

204
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you, man, you're probably better

205
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 1: off of spectrum at this point, and I'm like, you're

206
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,199
Speaker 1: not even looking at the thing. He's like, I can

207
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: just tell I'm gonna have to go up there, and

208
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: if your neighbor is not, I'm like, Ship. Then the

209
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: spectrum guy came. It was really nice, which is very

210
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 1: un that's very not familiar on spectrum of him, but

211
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: like it was. Sometimes you have those tech people who

212
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,719
Speaker 1: like actually give a funk about their job and not

213
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: to say like yeah whatever, it is, Like I just

214
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 1: love when someone has enthusiasm about it and it's like

215
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: over explaining like yeah, this is the reason blah blah blah,

216
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: but I'm glad you're almost on the other side of

217
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 1: your Internet list, like one more week, Ship. It's uh yeah,

218
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: it's an indictment any to any time you're dealing with

219
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 1: a telecom company, it's an indictment of capitalism. I feel like,

220
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,679
Speaker 1: because these should all be fucking public services, you know,

221
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: like public utilities that are actually done in a humane

222
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: way and like affordable rather than like how much can

223
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: you afford where they're like, oh, well you can't afford

224
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: to stream your education, you can afford to like look

225
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 1: at static documents, Like fuck off, Joel what movies are

226
00:12:54,200 --> 00:13:00,040
Speaker 1: on the hard drive? What any any forgotten classics? It

227
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: just so, first of every action movie between two thousand

228
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: now is on there. For sure. We watched All the

229
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: Fast and Furious. Is every mission impossible on the Planet

230
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: of the Apes? If it blew up? It was on there.

231
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: But then he also included a lot of like black

232
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: American classes. Glory is on there, and so is the

233
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: color purple. And I'm like, what mood were you in

234
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: when you were were you like? Also things that blow up?

235
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 1: But also education? And then he put a lot of

236
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: girly movies on there for me, which I really appreciated.

237
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,599
Speaker 1: My Atonement is on there um, but also Pride and

238
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: Prejudice is on there, which baborite movie. Watch it over

239
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 1: and over again. Yeah, A nice, A nice combination. I

240
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: will say this a movie for every mood because there

241
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: has not been one time where we're like, oh, there's

242
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 1: nothing to watch on this thing. And I scrolled through

243
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: all of Netflix and found nothing to watch, so I

244
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: was pretty pleased with it. That's some top notch debting

245
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: right there. That's like something if you can, if you

246
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 1: can like put a movie selection together, will entertain your

247
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 1: kids for over a week like that's you go in

248
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: the Dad Hall of Fame, right, no matter if you're

249
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 1: three or thirty. Yeah, you know what I mean. We

250
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: did also watch All the Kunku Pandas and All the

251
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: Chain Your Dragons, So yeah, we gotta send my dad

252
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: an award or something. Yeah. If most dads, it would

253
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: just be a series of liam nesson movies and probably

254
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: some Sigal in there but later yeah, yeah, no, you

255
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: don't understand it in color. Peter Jackson took all that

256
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: World War One footage and made it so real. What

257
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: is something you think is overrated? Um? I had trouble

258
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: thinking of something that's overrated. But one thing that I

259
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 1: think is overrated because I'm scared of it's owning a house.

260
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: I feel like I'd rather prefer to think of it

261
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: as like that's overrated then actually engage in something terrifies me.

262
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: I'm being too honestly, Like Star Wars it said, I

263
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: was like, I don't know, having a baby is that overrated?

264
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: Let's talk about it? Yeah, I'm going to I'm sorry

265
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: the city. Are you in New York? I'm in New York? Yeah,

266
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: Because I feel like, did you where did you grow up?

267
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: I grew up in South Florida though, Okay, so because

268
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: I feel like I know like people who like I

269
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: have friends who grew up in New York who have

270
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: the very like that block of like home thing. But

271
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 1: it has the city changed your outlook on that, Like

272
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 1: has that influenced your feeling of it being overrated? Or

273
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: I think it's more that my parents were bad with

274
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: money when I was a kid, and so for me,

275
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: I was always like, what's the point of doing this?

276
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: It still seems like it doesn't you know, it seems

277
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: like you don't really own the house. Not realizing my

278
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: parents were very bad with money at that moment that

279
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 1: it wasn't like it wasn't just like the bank showing

280
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: up being like, hey guys, we decided we want to

281
00:15:55,880 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: always want to back right, this is overrated mom. As

282
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 1: a kid, that's how I felt like. I was almost

283
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: like why do we all? Why did you buy this?

284
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 1: So I think it's like it's less than it is

285
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: really overrated, But something that like in my head almost

286
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: I always had a mental block on and I'm like, no, nobody,

287
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: that's not real. Yeah, absolutely, I just love that idea. Yeah,

288
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: they I don't know why they kept making the same mistake. Really,

289
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: that's how well. That's also the speaks of the power

290
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: of like how much of our financial literacy and idea

291
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 1: of finances just comes from our parents. Like I have

292
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 1: parents who didn't make a lot of money, but also

293
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: didn't talk about it, so I just grew up being like,

294
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think you work and then and

295
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 1: then like you could have a kid, but I can't

296
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: always have new shoes. So there's levels to it. But

297
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 1: no one's like, you gotta save. And my dad like

298
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 1: lit not until I was out of college, and I

299
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, man, like the second I got married,

300
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: I started to save him for your college. I was like, what,

301
00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: I never you didn't tell me. I'm I'm sitting here

302
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: are with nine thousand dollar sneakers on, and you're telling

303
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: me now I gotta say, fuck, I'm all fucked up

304
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,719
Speaker 1: nine thou dollars. I don't have no nine time. Do

305
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: you think I was at the fucking inauguration and those

306
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 1: deal with Jordan's Uh yeah, I'm fully financially illiterate. As

307
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: we're about to learn when we discuss uh the Wall

308
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 1: Street you might be games to the point that I'm

309
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,199
Speaker 1: very similar with Wall Street. I like Resent Wall Street.

310
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is all just like made up lingo

311
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 1: bullshit fuck off. And I feel like a lot of

312
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: America's that way. And that's where, uh, some of this

313
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 1: is coming from. What is something Alex you think is overrated?

314
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: Franz I wanted to hear an old jew complain. I

315
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: listened to me I and so they're fine, they're basic. Complain.

316
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: Any observations that everyone has, they're not there. I'm actually,

317
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 1: not kidding, more worried about saying this on a recorded

318
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: medium than I've ever been about it saying anything. I

319
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 1: don't want to get canceled for. I like Friendly Woods

320
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 1: a lot. I've read everything she's ever published, which is

321
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 1: like three books, and they're small. I just don't understand

322
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: why someone who's basically been tweeting since nineteen seventy nine

323
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: is this grand joyanne of like curmudgeon liness. It's fine,

324
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: it is the and by the way, everyone's like she's

325
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: such an avant garde figure. Everyone enjoys her. I don't

326
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: know a single like. By the way, I don't even

327
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: hate fran Leewoods. I think Friendly Wits is great. I

328
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: just don't think fran Leewoods needs to be inaugurated into

329
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: the brown paperbag pantheon of New York City, where everyone's like,

330
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: she's just you see her on the street. She's not

331
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 1: a deity. And so now there's like a Martin Scorsese

332
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: documentary where he laughs at her bond mots about how

333
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 1: people walk too slow on the sidewalk, which is the

334
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,719
Speaker 1: same thing everyone's been complaining about since I don't understand

335
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: why she's so famous. Pretended to city is what it's called,

336
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: because that's her. That's her joke. Is pretended to the the

337
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 1: city and act like there are people around you. It's

338
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: one bit, and it's one It's one bit, and I'm

339
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 1: and I'm done with it. I want to see the

340
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: positive friendly but with Spins, I know that she's angry.

341
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: That's fine. I'm angry too. Just show me something. Also, Spice, Tuna,

342
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 1: Crispy rice very overrated. While we're on the Rice tops Rice,

343
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: it's everywhere, it's a, it's a it's wow. I was

344
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: about to say epidemic, but we've got to be careful.

345
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: A it's everywhere, Spicetunia, Christie Rice. And they're not all

346
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 1: created equal. Some are really good, some really bad, but

347
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: as a concept it's overrated. And I like, now there's

348
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 1: a restaurant in Glendale, California, near where I live, and

349
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 1: they have a sign outside this no spice tuna, Crispy Rice,

350
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: which I appreciate, Thank god. I mean it's yeah. Look,

351
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: I know like Nobu did it first, and that was

352
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: like the thing, and they oh, funny you had the

353
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 1: Crispy rice. And then it just became like like the

354
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: cupcake phenomenon of like Japanese restaurants or it's like you

355
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: gotta have a Krispy rice thing, and like like Japanese

356
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,439
Speaker 1: people are like, for who because we don't want that

357
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,199
Speaker 1: like that I ain't. No, I'm not. When I go

358
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,119
Speaker 1: there with like my family or my mom or whatever,

359
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: we're not like, yoh, we gotta get the Crispy rice.

360
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 1: This is a very I think it's like I think

361
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 1: it being at Nobu made it this sort of it

362
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: elevated it to this idea of like fancy Japanese restaurant dishum.

363
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 1: But yeah, sorry, I'm very concerned now about my I

364
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: don't want to be I don't want to have my credentials.

365
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:51,959
Speaker 1: I say, devout new York jew revoked. So please, please guys,

366
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 1: be kind if you are every big Friendly Woods, and

367
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: please as what don't want Friendly Woods to find out

368
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 1: because she's a scary lady. So I think you could

369
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: match wits. Yeah, I think you'd be fine. I think

370
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 1: it would actually be be good for you. I think

371
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 1: you should start a feud with Frandle Woods. It could

372
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 1: be like the West Coast thing now that you're in

373
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: l A. Just like, I don't beef down because I

374
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 1: get your numbers up home beat down. I got, I

375
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 1: got a I got a Martin Scorsese special under my belt. Son,

376
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 1: I don't need you. Yeah, keep doing these grainy g

377
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 1: as podcast, motherfucker. All right, let's take a quick break

378
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:46,199
Speaker 1: and we'll be right back. And we're back. All right,

379
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 1: Let's talk about my favorite subjects. Not really my favorite subject,

380
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,880
Speaker 1: but I got I get a lot of ship from

381
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: bringing it up all the time. The British Cold Gas study,

382
00:21:55,880 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: which I found that basically giving people access to or

383
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:05,400
Speaker 1: taking away their access to, um, you know, methods of

384
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: suicide actually affects whether people kill themselves. That's not a

385
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: thing that like where there's a will, there's a way.

386
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: It's it's named after the fact that they changed the

387
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: type of gas that was used in British ovens in

388
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: the twentieth century, and once the method of putting it

389
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 1: sticking your head in an oven was no longer lethal. Uh,

390
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: the British suicide rate dropped by like a third because

391
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 1: that's how a third of people were killing themselves. They

392
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: just had a box they could stick their head in

393
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: that would end their life. And so that was once

394
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: that went away, people stopped just the suicides one way

395
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: as opposed to people finding a different way. Um, so

396
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: there's more evidence on I usually bring this up in

397
00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 1: relation to gun control, and there's now very speci cific

398
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 1: evidence that proves that that is valid, that that's you know,

399
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,199
Speaker 1: a lot of people bring it up. I don't. I

400
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 1: don't just bring it up, but a lot of people

401
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: bring it up in relation to gun control. And new

402
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 1: research has showed that a temporary decision by Walmart to

403
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 1: stop selling firearms reduced the suicide rate by three point

404
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 1: three to seven point five percent in counties with Walmart stores,

405
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 1: which was an estimated five thousand to eleven thousand lives

406
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: saved or five thousand too close to twelve thousand life saved,

407
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 1: and so you know, this is just one of those

408
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 1: things that it seems like it seems to me like

409
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: the most straightforward case for gun control is like there

410
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: are lives that are being lost explicitly because people are

411
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: allowed to have guns in their house. Yeah, but how

412
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 1: much do Walmart profits fall? Right at a time. But

413
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: beyond even that, I was like, the so many people

414
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: in the pandemic, You're like, well, people die, what can

415
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: you do? They're gonna die, Like, it's gonna be a

416
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 1: lot of that same energy. And if you're things that

417
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: actually heard your should have to take your own minds

418
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 1: and maybe you deserve to die. These just callous and

419
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 1: completely uncaring about like, well, you know, some people are

420
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: sick and need help, and you could we could easily

421
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 1: give that to them as we could have gone, Like

422
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,679
Speaker 1: it's pretty much the same amount of effort goes into

423
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: like helping somebody as it does to just be like,

424
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,959
Speaker 1: well you're on your own, buddy. Comparing it to like

425
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: mental like the connection between mental and physical health, it's

426
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: like if getting a fever killed you, if you are

427
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 1: going through a particularly difficult period of time and you

428
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 1: have access to something that uh, you know, you're mentally

429
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 1: you're not well, and you have access to something that

430
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: locks that feeling in Like that, it's the same. It's like,

431
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: you know that that idea that suicide is a permanent

432
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 1: solution to temporary problem is I think unimportant, Like it's

433
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,679
Speaker 1: kind of a quippy thing. But it's also like these

434
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: statistics bear out that that ends up being what it

435
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 1: is a lot of the time. Like and you know,

436
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: there have been longitudinal studies of people who jump off

437
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: the Golden gate bridge and survive, and there's like, I

438
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: think nineties something per cent of them go on to

439
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 1: not kill themselves. They go on to live normal lives. Uh.

440
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 1: And so it's like the just because you make that

441
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: decision in that moment doesn't mean that two minutes later

442
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 1: you would have still wanted to make that decision. The

443
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: very just rigid view of it, that doesn't didn't help

444
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 1: anyone at all. And having a button that ends your

445
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: life as which is what guns are, is like the

446
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: most permanent and just the most drastic way of you know,

447
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:08,360
Speaker 1: locking in that. What is a sort of philosophical dilemma

448
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: that people you know generally don't down the road, don't

449
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 1: want to have, Like that's what it makes, Uh, the

450
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 1: decision to take your own life so tragic to me

451
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: that so often times the person would have wanted not

452
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: to have done that if you had given them another

453
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,479
Speaker 1: day to think on it, if they just didn't have

454
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: that means right there, Walmart is just like being you know,

455
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 1: for most people know Walmart is just the destroyer of

456
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 1: a company and what it's done to just you know,

457
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 1: most small businesses across the land. But then like to

458
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: add this on top of the thing about how Walmart

459
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 1: and McDonald's, like are the two companies that employ so

460
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: many Americans that still need are relying on public benefits

461
00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:00,360
Speaker 1: because of their unwillingness to actually give people the the

462
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 1: things they need. Um, it's like, like, come on something

463
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 1: that we're having the fifteen dollars an hour argument, How

464
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: is that still a conversation we have? We started that

465
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: conversation when I was in college. Should be twenty five

466
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: let's real, that's at minimum, it should be twenty five

467
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: an hour. And you know the well, how are you

468
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 1: going to pay for that? It's just it's called the

469
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: people who you'll never be as rich as are going

470
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: to be slightly less right, right, or the other argument

471
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 1: we here all the time is like, oh well then

472
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: that will force them to like fire people, it will

473
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: bring more machines, Like that's already happening, Like you're already

474
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 1: having machines taking over people jobs. Like here's I think

475
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: machines don't consume products, So what do you do about that?

476
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: You know, Like it's like, oh, so then you have

477
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: to do you have to have money for people, whether

478
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: it's through a UBI or something, um, because we're not

479
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: going to some weird like the island type vibe where

480
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 1: everyone's and like their white uniform and like here's your

481
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 1: gruel and you know, growing your peloton. It's holding back

482
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: progress by you know, like allowing right, well, because we're

483
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: still like it's still it's like it's just wage slavery,

484
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: you know. And that's because your only options. Okay, so

485
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 1: you're not going to work, then you'll die, right Well,

486
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 1: that's the fucked up Why am I? What's this game?

487
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 1: What's this game set up as? Exactly? So if I

488
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: don't do this, if I don't work and toiled in

489
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:36,199
Speaker 1: my option, I there's nothing to rely on to help me.

490
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 1: So my only option is to be have my labor exploited. Yes,

491
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 1: the goal of capitalism you work or you die, which

492
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: everybody who is physically unable to work or people who

493
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 1: have any kind of barrier to working. This woman, who

494
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 1: it's a brilliant writer, but she's deaf, it was having

495
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: such a hard time finding a job that would make

496
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: any kind of like accommodations for her. She's like, all

497
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 1: want to beat on zoom. I can't hear what you're saying,

498
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 1: and none of you sign So what do I do here?

499
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 1: What is the point? And she can't She literally cannot

500
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: participate in the words, She's proven herself time and time

501
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: again to be good at that kind of stuff. Is

502
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: so frustrating. Um, yeah, we live in a society where

503
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: you you absolutely have to be productive in order to

504
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: be valued, and I think that that's so disgusting. Yeah,

505
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 1: and we're just we're not like shedding that like toxic

506
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: philosophy quick enough, you know, because we still have we

507
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: gotta work hard, even if your hands bleed. It's like

508
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: that's fucking fucked up and cruel. Like there there has

509
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 1: to be some like level that we can all come

510
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: to an agree on, but I think that will take time.

511
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: It's like it's just really we're just watching these companies

512
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: like grind people out to the point where we're just like,

513
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: don't what do we do? But it's like, well, we

514
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 1: have fucking you know, this is all we have to

515
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: be in this together. Um, So that we have to

516
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: look at that and say, that's not a good situation,

517
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: that's not a direction philosophically, societally I want to move in.

518
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: But come on, well, day by day, just gotta keep

519
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: that in the front of the mind because hopefully, you know,

520
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: we'll reach a tipping point of people thinking in the

521
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: same way and we can start I don't know, maybe

522
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: that's a little too optimistic, but hey, the last four

523
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: years have at least got people pretty focused on ships,

524
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 1: so there may be something to do with that. Yeah. Uh.

525
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 1: And just before we got a break, just going back

526
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 1: to the suicide conversation, that it is a public health

527
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 1: crisis in the United States. It is twice as common

528
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 1: as homicide, which is the exact opposite of what people assume,

529
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 1: because homicide gets you know, at least twice as much

530
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: coverage when it happens, and it is that way because

531
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 1: of guns. So it's a public health crisis that is

532
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: being ignored every day in the country and uh finally

533
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 1: written house. Uh finally got like very lightly checked by

534
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 1: a judge after just being out here. You know, he's

535
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 1: been free uh since November off the strength of Mike

536
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: Lindell's connection to uh Lord Jehovah, the one on high. Um.

537
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 1: He's been out drinking, taking picks with proud boys, uh,

538
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: throwing up the okay ak white power symbol. Um. His

539
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: mom's even been selling merch that says free Kyle, which

540
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 1: there's actually I didn't know about this, but Miles, you

541
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: were saying this violates the Son of Sam laws. Yeah,

542
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: they have them on the books in Wisconsin, basically like

543
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: you can't profit off your crimes, Like you can't turn

544
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 1: your crime into some kind of profit thing. And then

545
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: they're like, but it's for his legal bills. It's not

546
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: a profit. Uh okay, right, So the money is going

547
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 1: legs that were taken care of by a go fund

548
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 1: me those legal bills. Well, but but I need more though,

549
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: you see so by your free Kyle logo, padded sports

550
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: brawl in white, it's just it's a it's a ton

551
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 1: of nonsense. Also, I didn't realize, you know, he's nineteen

552
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: and there are those photos of him drinking with Proud

553
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: Boys in a bar. I didn't know that in Wisconsin,

554
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 1: if you're between eighteen and twenty, you can drink in

555
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: a bar if you're with your parents. Cool. Have you

556
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: heard of this law? And I only heard of it

557
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: when I saw those pictures two and I was like, Oh,

558
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 1: that's yeah, dumb law. Yeah, but it's a lot of

559
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 1: I guess it's up to the discretion of like the

560
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: business owner, but still was like, that's a fucking weird law.

561
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: Huh um. But yeah, Like so essentially this one, prosecutors

562
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: were just came to the judge with all this ship on,

563
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 1: something like, what the funk is your man's thinking, your honor,

564
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: can we figure this out? Because not only is he

565
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 1: flaunting his freedom in this really destructive way, but by

566
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: publicly connecting yourself to Proud Boys. The prosecutors are like,

567
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: this could easily translate into voter intimidation, you know what

568
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 1: I mean, like to say like, oh, I'm gooned up Google,

569
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 1: Like what do you think? Oh? You better fucking think twice.

570
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: So the judge like, okay, noted, uh and then came

571
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 1: out today said quote the defendants shall neither possess nor

572
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:14,000
Speaker 1: consume alcoholic beverages. The defendant shall not knowingly have contact

573
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: with any person or group of persons known to harm, threaten, harass,

574
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 1: or menace others on the basis of their race, beliefs

575
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 1: on the subject of religion, color, national origin, or gender.

576
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 1: No weapons, especially firearms, And no contact including like just

577
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: certain people that were either victims or people he was

578
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: in the case with. So yeah, oh cool, um of

579
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 1: a bit of modification to his bond agreement. I can't

580
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: think of Kyle Rittenhouse too long because it just makes

581
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 1: me scratch my head, like i'd still to this day

582
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 1: and blown away. Just in our lifetime, how many people

583
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 1: have taken human life and have been good, and then

584
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 1: how many people have been doing a petty crime for

585
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: something that doesn't affect anyone and in prison for life,

586
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 1: Like it really just makes you realize how funn this

587
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: Just like here's the thing, let's just say, let's just

588
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: say I didn't even want to think about, like the

589
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 1: racial aspects of it. Facts that are known is that

590
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 1: he killed another human being that alone usually people like

591
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: put them under the jail, and now you're out for free,

592
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 1: you know, like and and it's crazy because it's like

593
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,319
Speaker 1: it is true, Like it's not even like someone can

594
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 1: really retaliate and be like oh man, well but you know,

595
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 1: I feel like risk I'm gonna go pop his ask

596
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 1: because then the judge could just be like, nah, we're

597
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 1: gonna put you in prison though, you know, like like

598
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 1: that that like at some at a certain point we

599
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,959
Speaker 1: have to realize like, oh, the justice system is fucked.

600
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: And at a certain point, it's like who who who

601
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 1: is above them? Like it feels like something like you

602
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 1: remember when like a teacher, you always had that one

603
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,879
Speaker 1: teacher who knew they had tenures so they were doing

604
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 1: wild ship and you're like, damn, this seems like a

605
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 1: bad system. I feel like the same thing goes for judges,

606
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,320
Speaker 1: like they're has to be a system where someone looks

607
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: into some of these judges calls and be like, well,

608
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 1: for a black person you put them under the jail,

609
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: and for a white person you didn't. I think you

610
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,880
Speaker 1: shouldn't be a judge anymore. That's bad judgment. You know,

611
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 1: when this yeah, eighteen year old white young man came

612
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: in with attempted murder and murder charges, you quote said,

613
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 1: bring in the kegs and let's get fucking twisted. Yeah,

614
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 1: your honor. I don't that seems like a very lack

615
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 1: of consideration. Yeah, it feels like that sometimes where you know,

616
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,479
Speaker 1: you can look at someone like Tamir Rice is twelve

617
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 1: years old and gets killed by the police, right, and

618
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 1: then you have a little white supremacist that could marching

619
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 1: up and down the streets killing people, and we have

620
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 1: to sit here and stomach watching this bizarre treatment, uh

621
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: and be like, you know, for for certain people, especially

622
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 1: people of color and other people who have have their

623
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 1: eyes open enough in this country, go this is so

624
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,440
Speaker 1: fucked up to see, like this is just so fucked

625
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 1: up and then on, But it works on other levels.

626
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: It just makes it makes me more nihilistic or I

627
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 1: mean not fully black pilled. But you know, in a

628
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 1: way you're like, why do we need these fucked up constantly?

629
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: Is what you cannot do? It really is like it

630
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 1: makes what makes me just scratch my head is it

631
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 1: makes the argument for a lot of these progressive causes

632
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 1: so much easier. But people still can't sink it in

633
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 1: the head, Like like people were like, why would you

634
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 1: defund the police? Why would you defund the police? And

635
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 1: not a couple of months later in Florida, we had

636
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 1: a judge rule that police have no no like like

637
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: cause to protect and serve if they're not in custody.

638
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: Like it was because the parents were obviously trying to

639
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 1: soothe the cops at Parkland who ran away from the shooter.

640
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 1: And and and you look and you're like, so, so

641
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: what are you there for if if you're saying that

642
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 1: if you're scared, you can run away, if you're scared,

643
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 1: you can kill people, Like it seems like if you're scared,

644
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 1: you can do whatever you want. I'm I'm just waiting

645
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 1: on the case where they you know, fuck you know,

646
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 1: sex worker and they're like, well, I was scared for

647
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,760
Speaker 1: my life. And I was like, well, because it seems

648
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 1: like they get out of jail free card literally for

649
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: cops is if they're scared. And I was like, if

650
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 1: you are scared, then you should, like you should get

651
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 1: your badge taken away. I think that's not a hard

652
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 1: thing if you if you cannot in the line of duty.

653
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 1: We are shipping eighteen year old boys off to countries

654
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 1: where people want to kill them, and they still have

655
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:49,360
Speaker 1: to follow rules of escalation in in in a place

656
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 1: where people want to kill them, and we are letting

657
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 1: people off who are with civilians kill you? Are you?

658
00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,959
Speaker 1: That just doesn't add up? And you will grown ass

659
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,439
Speaker 1: man loss of these cops in their thirties, he got

660
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 1: eight year old kids who can process like, okay this

661
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 1: this may be a brown kid in the middle. I mean, look,

662
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 1: they've been sucking up too, but I think you know

663
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: they've been doing war crimes too. But at least there's

664
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: an attempt at a system in place where it seems

665
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,319
Speaker 1: like cops everyone just wants our hands off. They have

666
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: a separate bill of rights so that they cannot be punished.

667
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: But if a doctor'll tell you save my life up,

668
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:35,760
Speaker 1: I could sue his pants off, right. Yeah, yeah, cops

669
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 1: have the they're given the power of God like absolute power.

670
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 1: They can kill you or not. And I can see

671
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,920
Speaker 1: why choked out a cop. I could see why I

672
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: need Trey Songs money because I need to be able

673
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: to choke out a cop and be good. I mean, yeah,

674
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 1: it's truly because you can do anything. And if even

675
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 1: if you do the most heinous ship like assault somebody

676
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 1: who's in custody or murder some one, there's a trillion

677
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 1: and one excuses they can make and somehow like that

678
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 1: guy's on the street again, Yeah, what the fuck? And

679
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 1: it's it's for that reason people should be like at

680
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: the very least if you're uncomfortable with the message, like

681
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: because in your mind defunding the police, you can't nuance

682
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: that enough to say we need a redistribution of resources

683
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 1: to go towards the people rather than the oppressors and

684
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: things like that. Do this thought exercises, is it is

685
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,439
Speaker 1: a cop someone who can find like be protected by

686
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:33,720
Speaker 1: most dimensions of this law to get away with whatever

687
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 1: they please. That's really another just start there. Maybe if

688
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,839
Speaker 1: you don't like that, then you lose that as your

689
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:42,319
Speaker 1: way into looking at the larger picture of what this

690
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:47,319
Speaker 1: all means. Alright, let's talk. Let's talk about this story

691
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 1: about using every last drop of the vaccine is in

692
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 1: the news. There's like something with Fiser and you know

693
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: them saying that projecting that they will get I think

694
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,919
Speaker 1: six doses out of every vile instead of five, which

695
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: is what the health care providers were saying. Um, and

696
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 1: I guess it's like yeah, like, uh, theoretically you could

697
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 1: get six out if we had this like super precise

698
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:18,240
Speaker 1: equipment everywhere in the field and we don't have that. Um.

699
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 1: But you know, so that's like one of the theoretical

700
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 1: conversations that that's happening. Um. And this is just a

701
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: good illustration of how far we are from even that mattering,

702
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 1: even being able to distribute the vaccine. Yeah, not only that,

703
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 1: I mean like they have a choke hold on like

704
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 1: they own the vaccine. So we're at the at the

705
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,879
Speaker 1: fucking will of big Pharma to be like, don't let

706
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,799
Speaker 1: us die or or how much a how much to

707
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 1: not let me die is where we're at with Big Pharma.

708
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 1: They're not. It should should have been like, sorry, motherfucker,

709
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: we need this for the good of earth. Fuck you

710
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: and you sue sue the governments of world. I don't

711
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:03,440
Speaker 1: know how that goes down functionally, but uh, there's just

712
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:07,320
Speaker 1: another dimension of this. But yes, we we see about

713
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 1: constantly there there's trouble with the role the vaccine rollout,

714
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 1: people being like there has to be more efficient ways.

715
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 1: Sometimes people are left with there's leftover lines and then

716
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 1: they're trying to get as much vaccine out so they

717
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 1: don't have to throw it away. But there's just another

718
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,799
Speaker 1: it's nice to see that people understand right that the

719
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 1: vaccine is so dear and finite that it no matter what,

720
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 1: we cannot waste it, just because that's just the situation

721
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 1: where and so in Oregon, there is these group of

722
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 1: health workers who were doing like a rural vaccination operation

723
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:39,919
Speaker 1: and they were trying to get back to like their

724
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,879
Speaker 1: main office, but they were caught in traffic where there

725
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:46,319
Speaker 1: was like they're just in a snowstorm basically, and they

726
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:50,759
Speaker 1: were sat there with about to expire vaccines, and the

727
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 1: New York Times story goes on, quote, uh, they know

728
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 1: they only had six hours to get the remaining doses

729
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 1: of coronavirus vaccine back to people who are waiting for

730
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:01,359
Speaker 1: their shots, roughly thirty mile is away. Normally the trip

731
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 1: takes forty five minutes, but with a jackknife tractor trailer

732
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:05,840
Speaker 1: ahead of them, the crew realized they could be stuck

733
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,919
Speaker 1: for hours. So the workers made the decision to walk

734
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: from car to car, asking stranded drivers if they wanted

735
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 1: to be vaccinated right there on the spot. So they said,

736
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:18,399
Speaker 1: fuck it, we're we're coming. We're getting rid of this ship.

737
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: And fantastic. It seems a little bit sketchy as they

738
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 1: go on to say, quote, and most drivers laughed at

739
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 1: the offer of a roadside coronavirus vaccine and politely declined.

740
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 1: Even though Mr Weber said he had a doctor and

741
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: an ambulance crew on hand to help oversee the operation,

742
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 1: he acknowledged it was not the typical setting for vaccination. Quote.

743
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: It was a strange conversation. Imagine yourselves trained on the

744
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: side of the road in a snowstorm, snowstorm and having

745
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: someone walk up and say, hey, would you like a

746
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 1: shot in the arm. In the end, though they had

747
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 1: enough people who one dude, they said, hopped out his car,

748
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:54,359
Speaker 1: ripped his shirt off and was like like, oh, it's

749
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:58,360
Speaker 1: in your arm. Fam. Because people who are on meths

750
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 1: also get stuck in traffic jams. So let's start. Have

751
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:07,240
Speaker 1: you ever been in a traffic jym and uh, somebody

752
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,360
Speaker 1: knocks on your window, like something walks up. That is

753
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,839
Speaker 1: the most unnerving ship ever. Like I was just I

754
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 1: was driving. I think it was like a cross country

755
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 1: trip or something. There was a I think a jack

756
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,359
Speaker 1: knife tractor trailer like they're talking about in this story

757
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 1: up ahead. So everyone was just stuck there and like

758
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 1: they knew the cars weren't going anywhere, and people were

759
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:31,359

00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,360
Speaker 1: the date, the born on date, and like a buzzer

783
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,319
Speaker 1: Like it's not so I don't know, Like the this,

784
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 1: I would have been skeptical. I would have taken it

785
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 1: just because, you know, I feel like that's a situation

786
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: where it's okay to ask for I D you know

Speaker 1: it's uh, sometimes it's somebody who's got like some crazy offers.

801
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,960
Speaker 1: I did not vaccine related, but I did a few

802
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 1: years ago this uh street called Freedom Parkway here in Atlanta,

803
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,799
Speaker 1: had a guy knocked on my car, uh and like

804
00:45:55,920 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 1: knocked on the window. And it was the middle of day.

805
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 1: He didn't seem like I thought he was going to

806
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 1: ask for money, right, But so I rolled down the

807
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: pass her side window a little bit and his his

808
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 1: opener line is like what if I told you? He's like,

809
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 1: what if I told you? I just got a winning

810
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 1: lottery ticket? And it was like, congratulations, bro, I don't

811
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:25,480
Speaker 1: know in the window up and he was like, I didn't,

812
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:30,400
Speaker 1: but what if I thought? And his whole hustle was

813
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 1: like asked me to give him a dollar so he

814
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 1: could buy the lottery ticket, the winning ticket. Yeah, he

815
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 1: was split with you. He didn't even say it was splitting. No, Oh,

816
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:45,759
Speaker 1: I love that scam. Wonderful, wonderful. You gotta pay money

817
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 1: to make money, man, because in your mind, Jack or Ben,

818
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 1: wouldn't you be weary of like some que and on

819
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:56,880
Speaker 1: group of people pretending to be giving vaccinations and like poisoning,

820
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:58,919
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, and I'm not That's

821
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,799
Speaker 1: where my mind goes into is not healthy. But unfortunately,

822
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:03,600
Speaker 1: when you foot when I'm in a snowstorm and you

823
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:07,319
Speaker 1: knock on my window, I'm not going to be like, oh, hi, vaccine. Well,

824
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,760
Speaker 1: first of all, you're gonna be out doing snow angels

825
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 1: because you're such a because yeah, but yeah, I'm also

826
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 1: like the thing that immediately my my brain goes to

827
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:24,759
Speaker 1: is like I don't know how to judge medical like ideas,

828
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,399
Speaker 1: Like I don't know what the right Like he could

829
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 1: be the fakest idea in the history of medical ideas.

830
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 1: And it's like, yeah, okay, man, you still see the

831
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:40,480
Speaker 1: the original like Blockbuster logo, You're like, this is a

832
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 1: driver's license for a Dolorean from Back to the Future,

833
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 1: Like hey, uh yeah, guys, I'm not a doctor, but

834
00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:52,040
Speaker 1: this does look like off bed bath and beyond bail

835
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:54,080
Speaker 1: and coupon. Yeah, I don't know. It's a good point.

836
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: Like I think this is one of those stories where

837
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 1: really it's surprising that six people said s because we

838
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:06,320
Speaker 1: have this kind of cultural taboo about Bob like knocking

839
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:10,839
Speaker 1: on people's doors. In cars. You know, it's not associated

840
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 1: with good news, right, but people are so desperate in

841
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 1: many cases for the vaccine. Like here, you know here

842
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:22,880
Speaker 1: in Georgia, our the governor who fixed the election to

843
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 1: become governor really shot the bed on on any kind

844
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:33,839
Speaker 1: of vaccination infrastructure distribution. Like yeah, my parents actually went,

845
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:37,279
Speaker 1: they retired, They went and got the first vaccination after

846
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:39,440
Speaker 1: being on a wait three different waiting list for like

847
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:43,080
Speaker 1: two weeks. Uh, they got to a place at Walmart,

848
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 1: a Walmart at four thirty in the morning, uh, to

849
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 1: get an appointment for that afternoon, and they were getting

850
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,359
Speaker 1: the fires are one with two shots. They got there

851
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 1: and they were told they would schedule the second shot

852
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 1: when they got to that afternoon appointment. They showed up

853
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,320
Speaker 1: to the afternoon appointment and the person gave him the

854
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:00,440
Speaker 1: first shot and they're like, all right, when we schedule

855
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 1: the second one, they said, oh yeah, things have changed,

856
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 1: try your best to find one. Yeah, that was it.

857
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:13,799
Speaker 1: That was the camp. Yeah. Good luck, good lum, Yeah,

858
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:17,239
Speaker 1: good luck with that. I'm sorry, good luck with that.

859
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be

860
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 1: right back and we're back. So I read an article

861
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 1: this morning which is where my entire understanding of this

862
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:43,240
Speaker 1: comes from on Bloomberg dot com that covers this story

863
00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:48,200
Speaker 1: from a Wall Street perspective with like amused tolerance. It's

864
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 1: like they keep commenting on the juvenile tone of the

865
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:54,600
Speaker 1: subreddit and making fun of the spelling errors. But zoom

866
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:56,920
Speaker 1: out real quick, let people know what we're even tought,

867
00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:00,439
Speaker 1: because most people like this only started be in people

868
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:02,560
Speaker 1: started talking about the last day, and if you're not

869
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:05,000
Speaker 1: fully your ear to the internet, you might not know

870
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:09,880
Speaker 1: what happened. Right, So, yeah, Miles, the floor is yours.

871
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 1: Why don't you explain? Yeah, as the resident guy who

872
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 1: just admitted he knows funk all about finances, I'm gonna

873
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 1: toss this pot potato over to Michael Drucker. Hello, hello,

874
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:22,440
Speaker 1: uh Now, keep in mind that I'm going to explain

875
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,279
Speaker 1: some of this wrong, so someone will listen to this

876
00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:27,799
Speaker 1: and go, that's not what's happening, and that's okay, you're right,

877
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 1: and so you have been on a podcast before. So basically,

878
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,759
Speaker 1: game stop. The stock itself has been suffering for about

879
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 1: a decade because nobody wants to buy video games in

880
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,120
Speaker 1: person any more. People order games off Amazon, they order

881
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,040
Speaker 1: them digitally. You know people wait in line for a

882
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,440
Speaker 1: PlayStation five, but game Stop if you've been inside a

883
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:46,319
Speaker 1: sort of a dying star. So the stock price over

884
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:49,399
Speaker 1: the last decade or so has gone down super low,

885
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 1: to the point where I think it was somewhere like

886
00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:53,760
Speaker 1: in the single digits at one point, but right before

887
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,799
Speaker 1: this it was I think like seventeen dollars or so.

888
00:50:56,520 --> 00:51:00,239
Speaker 1: And there's this Reddit group called Wall Street Bets, and

889
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:02,799
Speaker 1: what wall Street Bets is is basically them saying like

890
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:06,640
Speaker 1: them picking stock to sort of like an informal Reddit

891
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,720
Speaker 1: group full of stock memes, but they kind of encourage

892
00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:10,120
Speaker 1: each other to do things. And what they sort of

893
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:14,040
Speaker 1: realized was because game Stop stock is so bad that

894
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:18,120
Speaker 1: a lot of hedge funds were shorting it. And shorting

895
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 1: it is where I'm bad at explaining things. Basically, it's

896
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 1: what happens kind of in trading places explanation. They put

897
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: a bet that it will go down, that it will

898
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 1: lose money. It's basically putting your money on them. You're saying, basically,

899
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 1: I will buy it for full price because it will

900
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:40,399
Speaker 1: whatever um. And then the so what they did was

901
00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 1: the Reddit threat. They decided let's all buy it, so

902
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,480
Speaker 1: kind of like a legal pump and dump scam, sort

903
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:48,800
Speaker 1: of like back in the day when people trying to

904
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 1: pump penny stocks up by like everyone buy the penny

905
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,360
Speaker 1: stocks and then they dumped them immediately. Um, that's what

906
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,680
Speaker 1: they did. They pumped up game Stop stock, and because

907
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:58,600
Speaker 1: they were all buying it, everyone starts buying it, and

908
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:00,720
Speaker 1: as is the case with the stock market, because nothing

909
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 1: makes sense, the more people who bought it, the more

910
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,160
Speaker 1: people were willing to spend on it, to the point

911
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:08,640
Speaker 1: where it's now worth like three dollars um. What that

912
00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:11,240
Speaker 1: did was it basically bankrupted a bunch of head funds,

913
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:13,560
Speaker 1: hedge funds that were like, did not expect to have

914
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 1: to owe three dollars per stock Stop Stop that they

915
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 1: bought for seventeen dollars or bought even cheaper or whatever.

916
00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:26,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, they owe a lot of money. Yeah, it's

917
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 1: the hedge funds do. Which now the conversation, uh, that

918
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 1: you're seeing is like the Biden administration is thinking about

919
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:36,920
Speaker 1: like bail or at least considering the question of whether

920
00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:40,000
Speaker 1: they should bail out some of these head funds. Which

921
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,759
Speaker 1: so the thing that is exciting to me about this

922
00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:45,879
Speaker 1: is not I don't think it's a good a good

923
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:50,440
Speaker 1: time to now invest in game stop because it seems

924
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:54,239
Speaker 1: like that's that's how some people are taking it. And uh,

925
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:56,399
Speaker 1: it seems like the jig is up a little bit,

926
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,759
Speaker 1: like the people. Yeah, like once it becomes a no

927
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:04,200
Speaker 1: sational news story, that's when it's probably not a good

928
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 1: idea to to put your money on it. But just

929
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 1: the idea that a stock valuation can be completely independent

930
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:18,360
Speaker 1: from reality is something that I think we It's almost

931
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 1: like it works as a as satire of like what

932
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:26,120
Speaker 1: has happened in the stock market for the past year, uh,

933
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 1: with with the pandemic and businesses like downsize and going

934
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 1: out of business, firing people. Uh, you know, it being

935
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,400
Speaker 1: for the average American one of the worst economic times

936
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 1: ever and then the stock market being at its peak

937
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:47,040
Speaker 1: like peeking and not you know, taking any of the

938
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,359
Speaker 1: damage on. And so like the idea that they were like,

939
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,839
Speaker 1: let's just do that but to one stock and funck

940
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 1: over some of the people who have been benefiting off

941
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 1: of that, like in a very vague way where I

942
00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:04,320
Speaker 1: don't understand any of the dynamics. Uh, super producer on

943
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:08,239
Speaker 1: a Hosnier understands the stock market and has kind of

944
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,319
Speaker 1: tried to explain it to me, and I, uh, my

945
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:16,040
Speaker 1: brain resists it. It's like I'm allergic to uh understanding it.

946
00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 1: But it's uh, they're they're just in a turn in

947
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:25,959
Speaker 1: a broad narrative sense. The idea that they are satirizing

948
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 1: the stock market while putting a bunch of billionaires uh

949
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:34,640
Speaker 1: in financial trouble is is interesting to me. Yeah. The

950
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 1: secondary thing is watching like the fomo play out though,

951
00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 1: because that's where it gets dicey, you know, like like

952
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: I was saying before we went on Mike, Like they're

953
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: also in all the numerous interviews that came out of

954
00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 1: the story, like there were people who saw what happened

955
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 1: Monday when it was like when it was already taking

956
00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 1: off and got in or like I put in all

957
00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:59,920
Speaker 1: my savings and I put fourteen thousand dollars into it,

958
00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:02,239
Speaker 1: and then they realized where they were at and they're like,

959
00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:03,759
Speaker 1: oh ship, they had to sell it off and they

960
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:05,919
Speaker 1: ended up losing like six hundred bucks. But they're saying

961
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 1: like if I hadn't actually realized that, I would have

962
00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:11,799
Speaker 1: lost all of my money trying to just play this

963
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:14,640
Speaker 1: like like not knowing enough about the stock market and

964
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,040
Speaker 1: just seeing what I saw on Reddit and reacting to that.

965
00:55:17,400 --> 00:55:20,680
Speaker 1: So it's definitely it's interesting to see who who can

966
00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:23,120
Speaker 1: benefit from it, who gets sort of like sucked into

967
00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:25,480
Speaker 1: the momentum of like wanting to play the game without

968
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:30,560
Speaker 1: knowing and then yeah, to Anna Josane was trying to

969
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:34,440
Speaker 1: explain to me this morning, like what it made me

970
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:38,759
Speaker 1: think of. So in Shawshank Redemption, when Andy Dufrain like

971
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,919
Speaker 1: locks himself in the office and plays the music even

972
00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:44,120
Speaker 1: though he knows he's going to get his ass kicked

973
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:48,120
Speaker 1: by the warden, it's kind of like that is like

974
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 1: how I think of what they're doing is they're like

975
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:54,399
Speaker 1: fun these people, and we know it's going to blow

976
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:57,920
Speaker 1: up in our face. But there's a lot of people

977
00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 1: who are now getting in and who are going to

978
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 1: lose their their money. So it's almost like if everybody

979
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:05,920
Speaker 1: who heard the music also got the ship kicked out

980
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:08,920
Speaker 1: of them, which makes us scene not quite as cool.

981
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:14,880
Speaker 1: It's like not great if he's risking everybody else's safety, right, No, exactly,

982
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,680
Speaker 1: And also like you know, there's people on that Reddit

983
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 1: threat who were in early enough where they made a

984
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,960
Speaker 1: crazy amount of money and they're probably I would get

985
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,919
Speaker 1: out right now as the fools are coming in. It's

986
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:29,040
Speaker 1: which really it is. There's like I'm not as worried

987
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:31,839
Speaker 1: about those redditors as I am worried about like our

988
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 1: parents and grandparents who are like, oh, I remember games,

989
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,239
Speaker 1: all right, I'll put I'll put eight thousand dollars, you

990
00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:41,440
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like that's what worries me. I mean,

991
00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 1: Wall Street is inherently predatory, and there's always there always

992
00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:49,799
Speaker 1: has to be somebody who's a loser, right, who's going

993
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:54,399
Speaker 1: to lose out And you can almost guarantee that it's

994
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:56,879
Speaker 1: not going to be the hedge fund billionaires in the end,

995
00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:59,960
Speaker 1: like it maybe in the short run, or they cynically

996
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,080
Speaker 1: you start like co opting this reddit to start manipulating

997
00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,560
Speaker 1: the markets through like redditors, you know what I mean,

998
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:07,279
Speaker 1: and really be like, no, but this is how we're

999
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 1: gonna make moves. This is the new game, right, I mean,

1000
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:13,160
Speaker 1: really that's that's possible too, is people just go, Okay,

1001
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:14,640
Speaker 1: this is what I gotta do. I create a person

1002
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:18,240
Speaker 1: online and try to put my own stocks. Yeah, I mean,

1003
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:22,800
Speaker 1: like it is sort of the I think the people

1004
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 1: in that subreddit would hope like, well, they couldn't learn

1005
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 1: to like authentically, Like it's the sort of authenticity thing

1006
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: where that's the thing you can't fake that corporations are

1007
00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:37,480
Speaker 1: constantly trying to fake, like trying to find a way

1008
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:42,880
Speaker 1: to sponsor people who speak authentically and who communicate meaning

1009
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:47,280
Speaker 1: to people authentically. But yeah, I think the overall reason

1010
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:51,640
Speaker 1: people are super excited about this is because it seems

1011
00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 1: like what like a very real, sort of dynamic illustration

1012
00:57:57,360 --> 00:57:59,680
Speaker 1: of the haves and have nots, and like that the

1013
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 1: brain down in what the stock market is supposed to do,

1014
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:08,640
Speaker 1: which is, you know, represent value in some real world way,

1015
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,640
Speaker 1: and now it's currently like a game being played by

1016
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,840
Speaker 1: mostly very wealthy people and they're able to fix the

1017
00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 1: rules to insulate themselves from, uh, you know, any sort

1018
00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:24,600
Speaker 1: of representation the value. I just wanna read what on

1019
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:28,960
Speaker 1: a road like explaining what shorting is, uh, And so

1020
00:58:29,080 --> 00:58:31,600
Speaker 1: she said, shorting is when you borrow shares and then

1021
00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:34,160
Speaker 1: you sell immediately, in which then you can grab them

1022
00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:36,840
Speaker 1: later for a lower price, give them back to who

1023
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 1: you borrowed them from originally, and then you pocket the difference.

1024
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:44,520
Speaker 1: Like that couldn't be further from making sense to me.

1025
00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:49,280
Speaker 1: So dumb when it comes to that this market Watch

1026
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:53,240
Speaker 1: story is not helping when I Google sharing sharing, and

1027
00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 1: that's why I'm like, fuck it, I'm gonna I'm gonna

1028
00:58:55,560 --> 00:59:00,919
Speaker 1: just deal with meme stocks now for the lolls. I Yeah,

1029
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:03,880
Speaker 1: I've had shorting explained to me so many times, including

1030
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:08,480
Speaker 1: in movie form by Adam McKay, and I it's almost

1031
00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:10,440
Speaker 1: like looking at a photograph in West World where I'm

1032
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:12,000
Speaker 1: just like, this doesn't look like anything to me, Like

1033
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:15,480
Speaker 1: I don't understand, Like my brain just goes like, no,

1034
00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:19,440
Speaker 1: this isn't a thing, right, Yeah. Yeah, it's interesting because

1035
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:23,600
Speaker 1: this uh Bloomberg article is like the way they make

1036
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:28,439
Speaker 1: sense of this story is all about like, uh, them

1037
00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:31,800
Speaker 1: having these big breaks where it's revealed that uh, some

1038
00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:37,120
Speaker 1: influential investor was actually long on game stop and that's

1039
00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:40,080
Speaker 1: like where these surges are coming from, instead of like

1040
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:44,520
Speaker 1: they really under under rate the idea that it's just

1041
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:50,520
Speaker 1: like kind of being done, uh like every established power group.

1042
00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:52,800
Speaker 1: It's like that it could be even in politics, like

1043
00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:57,000
Speaker 1: was it activists? I don't know, Yeah, actually I think

1044
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:00,440
Speaker 1: it was actually because Joe Biden was so appealing. You

1045
01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:04,240
Speaker 1: forget about that, So let's let's ignore that. Maybe there

1046
01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:10,400
Speaker 1: are other things that could threaten the power structure, right, Um,

1047
01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:13,200
Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean if they do bail out hedge funds,

1048
01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:17,200
Speaker 1: like I think, then the story becomes more significant because

1049
01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:22,240
Speaker 1: then it becomes even greater affront to the or just

1050
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:26,720
Speaker 1: like a greater illustration of the disconnect there. Yea, and

1051
01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:29,720
Speaker 1: the fact that they are I I forget who wrote

1052
01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:32,640
Speaker 1: it on Twitter, but somebody was like, so they've owed

1053
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:35,920
Speaker 1: us two thousand dollars and I haven't been able to

1054
01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:38,800
Speaker 1: get that out, but you know they're gonna managed to

1055
01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:45,480
Speaker 1: bail these hedge funds out the next week. It's just frustrating. Yeah,

1056
01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:48,360
Speaker 1: So as you guys a like a louder voice in

1057
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 1: these people's ears, you know what I mean? Yeah, that

1058
01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:53,120
Speaker 1: that's what you're competing against. And when you have a

1059
01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:55,920
Speaker 1: ton of people, like when politicians are surrounded by these people,

1060
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:58,800
Speaker 1: they think that's what the world is. Like this saying

1061
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:06,560
Speaker 1: I made up a money talks And finally let's talk

1062
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:12,840
Speaker 1: Disney's Hall of Presidents at Disney World, which is which

1063
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:19,440
Speaker 1: is open. I guess so get out. Well they've escaped

1064
01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:23,760
Speaker 1: and it's bad news for Floridians. So I guess it's

1065
01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:28,240
Speaker 1: closed right now. As they're updating it with a robo Biden,

1066
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:33,280
Speaker 1: but I hadn't really followed, Like the Trump bot has

1067
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:37,160
Speaker 1: already been a huge problem for Disney, and the attraction

1068
01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:43,360
Speaker 1: now requires live human security guards because of the heckling

1069
01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:46,960
Speaker 1: and derision that Trump gets. Um, and they added large

1070
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:52,520
Speaker 1: spikes near the stage to protract to protect the animatronic Trump,

1071
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 1: which is very um wild, Like I mean like anti

1072
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:09,240
Speaker 1: tank hedgehogs on D Day. What I love the idea

1073
01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:14,959
Speaker 1: of the happiest place on Earth installing spikes to It's

1074
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:17,920
Speaker 1: just like they let a tiny little bit of politics

1075
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:23,560
Speaker 1: through and it's just like splodes. Just have like George

1076
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:27,200
Speaker 1: Washington give a little speech and then Abraham Lincoln waves

1077
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:31,280
Speaker 1: and get out, like we don't need the current president speaking. Yeah,

1078
01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 1: they apparently Trump's robot wax is poetically about America, which

1079
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:41,720
Speaker 1: isn't just like a false representation of him as a president. Uh,

1080
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 1: it's not what he wanted to record for Disney. According

1081
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 1: to one of his aids, Trump tried to brag about

1082
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 1: his private real estate business and make inaccurate claims while

1083
01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:53,600
Speaker 1: recording the speech he sent to Disney, and they had

1084
01:02:53,640 --> 01:02:59,200
Speaker 1: to like edit around it. Um. Honestly, the era of

1085
01:02:59,200 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 1: Trump comedies over But that's so funny to me. Imagine

1086
01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:04,600
Speaker 1: a recording booth and they're like, this will take fifteen

1087
01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:07,520
Speaker 1: minutes there, just just say the line and it taking

1088
01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:12,240
Speaker 1: eight hours back and forth. It's like that episode of

1089
01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:14,720
Speaker 1: The Crown where Thatchers like has to give a take

1090
01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:18,000
Speaker 1: on apartheid and they're like, what about this way. He's like, no, no,

1091
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:21,320
Speaker 1: I gotta talk about trump steaks. Gotta talk about trump

1092
01:03:21,360 --> 01:03:25,120
Speaker 1: steaks in this one. Sorry, Like you have fucking Abraham

1093
01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:27,080
Speaker 1: Wily can talk about the Civil War that you get

1094
01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:32,600
Speaker 1: the fucking salesman Trump the robot. Fuck, they're not good

1095
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:36,240
Speaker 1: with politics. Huh. Maybe Disney's just keep the fucking head

1096
01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:40,200
Speaker 1: out of this ship forever. They're thinking of instead of

1097
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:43,320
Speaker 1: doing that, they're thinking of rebranding the attraction. Uh. And

1098
01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:46,600
Speaker 1: there were rumors that they were going to completely overhaul

1099
01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,840
Speaker 1: it with input of Lin Manuel, Miranda and weird Al,

1100
01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:58,240
Speaker 1: which would be yeah, I would take that, please too.

1101
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 1: Talented musicians and a guy who fame actually doesn't say

1102
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:06,640
Speaker 1: bad words like that feels what than fucking anything? Yeah, fine,

1103
01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:10,320
Speaker 1: Disney always gets the great musicians. In the end, they

01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:15,400
Speaker 1: might be giants. They got them. Hot Dog, hot Dog,

1106
01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:25,200
Speaker 1: favorite songs. It's the Disney Mickey Mouse like Clubhouse theme

1107
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:28,880
Speaker 1: song by they Might be Giants? Uh. I wonder what

1108
01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:33,400
Speaker 1: current musicians will will be Disney musicians in the future.

1109
01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:38,400
