Jack? 66 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: It doesn't even matter anymore. And you were asking about 67 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 1: the long ponytail I'm growing out. Yeah, it's in prep 68 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: for I mean, let's not let's call it what it is, 69 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: rat tail at the moment. Yeah, it's a it's a 70 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: love tale if you remember how things right. But so 71 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: some information on the Batman the Matt Reeves Robert Pattinson 72 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: starring new Batman movie. Uh, that looks very moody. Um, 73 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: this motherfucker is going to be almost three hours long, 74 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: what seven minutes without credits come on, So it's not 75 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 1: the longest com book movie because like Endgame, but Endgame 76 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: and you know those other Avengers movies that were like 77 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: pulling together plot lines, those like Moved, and we're just 78 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: like packed with like storylines, Like this feels like a 79 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: different kind of creature. So it's interesting that it's gonna 80 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: be that long. I mean, I can't. I'm honestly, I 81 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: don't know what's happened in the pandemic, but I can't 82 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: even like when something is like just two hours in 83 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: one second, I'm like, this is this? This is too much? 84 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: And I used to always before that, I was like, oh, 85 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: look at this weak ass movie an hour and fifty 86 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: and now we're talking about two hours and forty seven minutes. 87 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: The poster, the marketing should actually look cool. I was like, 88 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, I'm I'm into on this one. 89 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 1: I am fine with it being this long actually, to 90 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: be honest, And I don't say that to be like 91 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 1: it can't be good and that long, But it's just 92 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: more like I don't know, because I think it's most 93 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: because like I watched movies high and in the back 94 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: in the days of going to the theater, like I 95 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: can't make I can't make a blunt stretch two hours 96 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: and forty minutes, like I gotta leave right and smoke 97 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: up again to get back in there. And if I 98 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: take edible, I'm less sleep Like what happened to me? 99 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: A Fast and Furious nine? Did that really? Or eight? 100 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: That's the one that had all this that makes more sense. Yeah, 101 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: I don't think I even saw it. But nine, there 102 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: is no falling asleep during that one, my friend, No, 103 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: I trust me. There is when you eat fifty milligram edible, 104 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: and I think it's just gonna make it look cooler 105 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: rather than when when I eat milligram edible. There would 106 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: be no falling asleep for six days. I would just 107 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: be uh, you know, in a shame spiral. But I 108 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: don't know that like the moodiness, the fact that like 109 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: I really like Pattinson and like Dano playing the Riddler 110 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: and Colin Farrell playing the Penguin, like or weird version 111 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: of the penguin.

Moving Um. 133 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: The also in the in the realm of people, So 134 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: the CIA has come out and said they think Havana 135 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: syndrome is not a vast network of you know, foreign 136 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: adversary attacks. Uh. Yeah, well we've known for a while 137 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: now that CIA is z gang. That they listen to 138 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: the show and share a lot of her opinions, and 139 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: they give us a lot of interesting takes to share 140 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 1: with you. The listener, Um, like that one about the 141 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 1: man that I just yeah, it's not clear yet how 142 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: that supports capitalism's in visible army, but it's there's a 143 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: lot going on. But by seeding this vigilante hero into 144 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 1: people's minds, like, we are going to create a type 145 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: of American who's more willing than ever to take things 146 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: into their own hands, and for billionaires and for billionaires 147 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: like Chris Patt did because he's also a not yeah. Um, 148 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: but so it's an internal report by the CIA, uh, 149 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: and they basically said there's no evidence linking Havannah syndrome 150 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: to a vasts foreign government attack on spies and diplomats. Um. 151 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: This is like, this sucks for the sufferers, who I 152 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 1: believe are not lying but simply suffering from a functional disorder. 153 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: Um symptoms, the symptoms are real. They're very real to them. Uh, 154 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: it's just not caused by an external attack and more 155 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: likely caused by you know, a stressful event and a 156 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 1: version of post traumatic stress that in the past has 157 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: been called massister area. But maybe Jack Malle, I think 158 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: maybe the seat we're rubbing off on the CIA, Yeah, 159 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: I think that mostly what it is, because they're not 160 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: like the pre eminent pacifists of our time. So this 161 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: is maybe they're all right, Langley, way to take that 162 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: one and not uh put a little quarter in the 163 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: Military Industrial Complex machine and get it vibrating again. You 164 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: saw their uh, their AD where they're recruiting, like the 165 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: for the woke CIA. Wasn't that the CIA where they're 166 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 1: like it was one of them?

Yeah, that must be frustrated. And 177 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: I do get some of the spycraft I used to 178 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,959 Speaker 1: sneak up on you from our good friends at the CIA, 179 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: from the nineties Toy brand spycraft made by Milton Bradley. 180 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: It's also just I mean that I don't know if 181 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:30,559 Speaker 1: this is an algorithm doing this but the way that 182 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 1: this headline is being worded, at least in this NBC 183 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: News thing, CIA says that the mysterious symptoms known as 184 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: Havana syndrome are not the result of a sustained global 185 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: campaign by a hostile power aimed at hundreds of American 186 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: diplomats and spies that not is doing the most work 187 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: that are not can possibly do. It's like still keeping 188 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: in the air, though, yeah without that not we're at 189 00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: war with a magical supervillain from the future. But it like, 190 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: it just seems like there's probably a clearer way of 191 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: covering that, right. It's like, again, Judge determines the Black 192 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: Lives Matter movement is not a vast global conspiracy to 193 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:17,599 Speaker 1: dethrown white think what the fun That wasn't even the question. Okay, 194 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: we get though that that's what you wanted people to 195 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: think for the whole time though, okay, thank you. Yeah, 196 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: it's just like they're addicted to the sensational like aspect 197 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: details of the story, so they have to get those 198 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: in the headline, so they just have a little knot 199 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: and then talk about the really sensational thing that it's 200 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: not like what it's like, this is such a funny 201 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: like construction of a sentence. You're like, you're just basically 202 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: you're still trying to cast dispersions by saying it's not 203 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: the thing that they think it is. But still I 204 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: don't know, it's not that. But that's scary, right, but 205 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: scary it was in your mind. Keep that in your 206 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 1: mind because we take two is going to be a 207 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,320 Speaker 1: little more intense. Um, all right, let's take a quick 208 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: break and we'll be right back. And we're back, and uh, 209 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell is um talking about voting rights. And that's 210 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: who better? Who better, Miles, Who better than old turkey 211 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: neck McConnell to go gobbling on about voting rights. Um, 212 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: this is he's he's he's trending right now because he 213 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: was asked a pretty direct question about you know what, 214 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: what's his message to voters of color who are like, 215 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: pretty sure the GOP is is trying to nullify our 216 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: voice in elections, And this is this is what he said, 217 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: very telling, very telling. Well, the concern is misplaced because 218 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: if you look at the statistics, African American voters are 219 00:13:54,080 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: voting in justice higher percentage as Americans. Oh m hmm, Okay, 220 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: take your mask off, take a clan hood off. We 221 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: get it. I mean, if you look, they're also wardners 222 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: statistically as hard numbers as uh human beings what the 223 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: other unrelated group. Yeah. So in addition to like that 224 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: clearly demonstrating how he thinks about, you know, voters of color, 225 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: it also suggests that they shouldn't be allowed to vote 226 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: in higher percentage than the average. Like, well, what a 227 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: what the fuck a man is that? It's a it's 228 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: such a strange, strange argument. Yeah, it's basically saying, don't worry, like, 229 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: people can vote, but will that vote then be counted? 230 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know like that part um, 231 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: and it's yeah, I mean again if if, if it 232 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: wasn't clear enough, what what direction that ship is headed in? Uh, 233 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: just just keep listening to the words of the leadership 234 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: of that party.
