Speaker 1: Not only am I going to do this, I'm going
Speaker 1: to record it and post it online. It's one more
Speaker 1: thing I'm I think if someone were somehow covertly videoing
Speaker 1: people having post electoral freakouts and weeping and gnashing their
Speaker 1: teeth and screeching completely insane things, uh, that would be
Speaker 1: that would be unethical. That would be untoward. It would
Speaker 1: be unacceptable. On the other hand, when people do it
Speaker 1: themselves and post it happily online, let it roll. Now
Speaker 1: we have a collection of election night freakouts for you.
Speaker 2: Yes, Jack, I have so hard a time wrapping my
Speaker 2: head around the idea of being the kind of person
Speaker 2: that falls to pieces over things like this. It's just.
Speaker 3: Well and then take a video of the process and
Speaker 3: puts it online for everyone to see.
Speaker 4: I feel like that's just proof that.
Speaker 1: Being unable to cope is celebrated in certain, you know,
Speaker 1: facets of modern society. Not just tolerated, but celebrated.
Speaker 2: I feel like that if I lost my job today,
Speaker 2: as the sole breadwinner of a family with two kids,
Speaker 2: I would feel bad about myself if I broke down.
Speaker 2: I mean, you gotta soldier on and figure it out.
Speaker 2: Let alone an election, I mean, come on.
Speaker 1: That very thing happened to me in nineteen ninety six,
Speaker 1: two babies. How about weeping and carrying on and screeching
Speaker 1: at the internet which didn't really exist.
Speaker 2: It's too bad because you could have sat in your car,
Speaker 2: which is the way you do it, and lighting and
Speaker 2: did a TikTok video about how awful capitalism was or something.
Speaker 4: No, just got to work.
Speaker 1: Anyway, let's begin with you know, I was thinking of
Speaker 1: having a vote for everybody's favorite freak out. Now these
Speaker 1: are visual discs, gript doors, just so handsome and everybody
Speaker 1: could communicate on who is editing what script, and they
Speaker 1: include some racial references and stuff like that. I don't
Speaker 1: think it's significant, but so just to make a note
Speaker 1: everybody of which one you like the best, and we'll
Speaker 1: have a vote at the end.
Speaker 4: So this is a clip eighty one Michael, black woman
Speaker 4: in car.
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, no, no, no, why why? Why why do
Speaker 5: you really.
Speaker 6: Have you that bad?
Speaker 4: Okay? Well, so the yeah, the doing my scoring.
Speaker 2: The real problem here is the are you just mentally
Speaker 2: ill or not?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 2: Is it mentally ill?
Speaker 3: Or is this like rage bait that people post to
Speaker 3: try to get other people to comment.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I know I know people who are
Speaker 2: this upset, so I know it's real for some people.
Speaker 4: Woman in room, real quick? Are we ranking him one
Speaker 4: to five, one to ten? You use whatever scoring system
Speaker 4: you like. This isn't entirely for you to to pick
Speaker 4: your favorite. All right, I'm step wake up a mother way.
Speaker 1: Okay, black gal, I'm afraid to go to sleep. I
Speaker 1: might wake up a mother blank and slave. Well, it's
Speaker 1: gonna take probably at least a week to get slavery
Speaker 1: go ahead again. And just thinking about some of the logistics.
Speaker 2: They will have to pass the legislation.
Speaker 3: Trump works pretty quickly.
Speaker 2: Thus, yeah he's efficient.
Speaker 4: Yeah, boy, that's a strong contender. Let's go on to
Speaker 4: mom on couch.
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, she had a baby while finding out the
Speaker 2: election results.
Speaker 1: Right, Oh, that's unfortunate. This one a bit more to enjoy.
Speaker 1: Attractive forty eight year old gal with tattoos.
Speaker 4: I am forty eight.
Speaker 6: Years old, and I have never experienced anything like this
Speaker 6: and never thought I would in this country. It's like
Speaker 6: it's like I can feel.
Speaker 5: The bean and the fear.
Speaker 2: She's doing the fake crying thing that I hate so much,
Speaker 2: or coke where she's upset but she's not quite like
Speaker 2: fully crying, but so she's got to keep the voice going.
Speaker 2: Because I kind of got together a little bit.
Speaker 4: I watched it. Look legit to me.
Speaker 2: I am very cynical about all hot chicks on any
Speaker 2: social media that they're not just trying to get attention.
Speaker 4: This one's simply labeled young woman. Is anyone else helping
Speaker 4: a meltdown? I don't know how to do this. I
Speaker 4: don't know how to wait. I'm so stressed now.
Speaker 6: You can't look out into the world, into the people
Speaker 6: of this country and see what's happening and how hard
Speaker 6: we're all fighting for rights not to be taken away
Speaker 6: from people.
Speaker 4: Oh, I know, makes my ass tired.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's if I could be completely serious for a while.
Speaker 2: It is a serious mental health problem. We've got that.
Speaker 2: We've convinced so many people that the more upset you are,
Speaker 2: somehow you get a you know, a merit badge for it, or.
Speaker 1: The more importantly your opinion should be taken. And then
Speaker 1: the idea, in fact, I think there is a and
Speaker 1: you know what, we're taking the fun out of it.
Speaker 4: We have Girl and Shining Shirt. Michael played Girl and
Speaker 4: Shining Shirt.
Speaker 6: We may not.
Speaker 5: Have rights tomorrow.
Speaker 3: Boy, this is really not making a good case for
Speaker 3: women to be strong enough to run a contray off.
Speaker 2: Let me just what did she say? We may not what,
Speaker 2: we may not have right.
Speaker 1: We have rights to me, We might not have rights
Speaker 1: to me. We might not have rights tomorrow. You will
Speaker 1: not be able to speak freely, or assemble or have
Speaker 1: a religion. You will find yourself quartering troops. Just try
Speaker 1: to assemble. Good luck with it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm kidding, all right.
Speaker 3: Are they just getting this way from the mainstream media?
Speaker 3: Is that how this is all drawn down their heads?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 1: No, I mean we're listening to social media posts, are
Speaker 1: getting it from social media to our content to reinforce.
Speaker 1: But Jack, anyway, you're trying to make a fun killing
Speaker 1: serious point.
Speaker 2: Well, actually, Katie's point is pretty good. I'm surprised there's
Speaker 2: not more of a pushback among women, because, like, I've
Speaker 2: never believed a woman can't be president, what about when
Speaker 2: it's her time of the month or anything like that.
Speaker 2: But these women, all these women who post, which it
Speaker 2: seems to be mostly a female thing, are making the
Speaker 2: case for misogynists that women can't handle real life. So
Speaker 2: I would think to be pushed back among normal women. Hey,
Speaker 2: knock it off, all right, you're giving us a bad look.
Speaker 1: Wow, what an interesting thought. Yeah, I would think that
Speaker 1: actual and feminists. It becomes so loaded with various meetings.
Speaker 1: I mean, just women want to make sure that women
Speaker 1: are taken seriously and have the rights and all.
Speaker 4: Where are you on this?
Speaker 1: Where are you on saying the girls, Hey, being emotional
Speaker 1: is fine. Emotions are wonderful, but you got to quit
Speaker 1: acting like a six year old.
Speaker 3: Well, they're the same ones that are vouching for boys
Speaker 3: to be playing in women's sports.
Speaker 2: They're all same umbrella.
Speaker 4: They're so convinced that that is the righteous thing. But
Speaker 4: getting back to the idea of.
Speaker 1: Your idea is taken more or less seriously based on
Speaker 1: your level of hysteria, and that there is a strong
Speaker 1: disincentive to present an opinion calmly and rationally because that
Speaker 1: gets you nothing. That is a cultural value that will
Speaker 1: lead to only one place, and that is crazy Ville.
Speaker 2: Crazyvill Yeah, Nuttyaton, Yeah, how we made the switch from
Speaker 2: if you were going to get emotional, you tried to
Speaker 2: hide it, or you might go in another room because
Speaker 2: you didn't want to break down in front of people.
Speaker 2: How we made the switch from that, which is what
Speaker 2: I grew up with and still practice myself. How we
Speaker 2: made the switch from that to I want as many
Speaker 2: people to see me crying as possible.
Speaker 1: Is an interesting thing, right, right, and again, I actually
Speaker 1: hate sexism, but I think we've just gone way too
Speaker 1: far toward mommy and completely lost daddy. Yeah, in society
Speaker 1: where fathers have been systematically pushed out of the family,
Speaker 1: and indeed all masculinity is toxic masculinity according to a
Speaker 1: lot of people, and as I said during the radio show,
Speaker 1: the great motherly impulse when the kids falls and skins
Speaker 1: his knee is oh sweetheart, oh honey, oh hugs, and
Speaker 1: Daddy's is yeah, you'll be fine, go play, You'll be great,
Speaker 1: and that that's one of the greatest things you can
Speaker 1: do for a kid is tell them setbacks are not permanent.
Speaker 1: Pain doesn't last, You're great, You're fine. And having raised
Speaker 1: three children and coached hundreds of others, when you say
Speaker 1: that they are fine and they go play and they
Speaker 1: have fun, and to have removed that from our children's
Speaker 1: lives is obscene.
Speaker 2: Were most of these people you said one of them
Speaker 2: was on the couch? Were some of them in their
Speaker 2: car doing the Oh yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there are there are a few car camera people yet.
Speaker 2: And that's because the lighting, you think, Katie, that's how
Speaker 2: it caught on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's the word on the Instagram street is
Speaker 3: the car is the best lighting?
Speaker 2: Got you?
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of muted and it surrounds you and yeah,
Speaker 4: oh well.
Speaker 2: I am not optimistic about the future based on this stuff.
Speaker 2: Hopefully it's fringe element that one loses their s and
Speaker 2: then two I guess as a podcast, I could say
Speaker 2: shit that loses their shit, and then then another subsection
Speaker 2: on the diagram that feels the need to record it
Speaker 2: and post it, and and then what is I actually
Speaker 2: don't know this? So then you get feedback from people
Speaker 2: who are feel bad that you're upset, or encourage your
Speaker 2: upset or we're in this together, be brave, we're in
Speaker 2: this together. It's that feeling of being part of a
Speaker 2: close knit, nurturing mini community. Because you are threatened, they
Speaker 2: sign very pleasurable they co sign your insanity.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: Other thing about these videos is that since they've gone viral,
Speaker 3: they're for sure all being monetized now because people are commenting.
Speaker 3: And then you get that engagement and you know.
Speaker 2: Well, that's a tough one. You could be just seriously
Speaker 2: one legit upset and that's all you were doing was
Speaker 2: expressing your consternation about the results. And then you get
Speaker 2: a check for eight hundred dollars in Wow, me being
Speaker 2: me crying on his little video made me ain't orn bucks.
Speaker 1: That's weird because when I calmly presented three arguments in
Speaker 1: favor of the Harris Walls ticket, I didn't get check.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 2: Shit, let me think what should I do next time? Hmmm,
Speaker 2: I think I'll lose my shit. What was I going
Speaker 2: to say? I was gonna say something, Oh, I know
Speaker 2: my favorite of all those.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Again and again you sucked all the fun out of
Speaker 1: it by bringing mental illness into it. At what point
Speaker 1: does well you got neurosis and psychosis. Those are old
Speaker 1: style terms, but I've always found them useful to be like, really,
Speaker 1: neurotic is crazy?
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you can I don't know, there is there
Speaker 2: is definitely can turn that around. There There are people
Speaker 2: so crazy they can't help it. But there's an awful
Speaker 2: lot of get your act together, and you can get
Speaker 2: your act together, or you can, like you know, roll
Speaker 2: around in your despair and make it worse.
Speaker 4: That's what you're assuming.
Speaker 1: There is no psychosis for the sheer ridiculousness of it.
Speaker 1: I've got to go with I'm gonna wake up a
Speaker 1: slave lady.
Speaker 2: That's my vote.
Speaker 7: Due wake up another Yeah, I mean, come on, how
Speaker 7: do you top We're gonna wake up swaves.
Speaker 1: It's gonna take at least until mid December to reinstitute.
Speaker 4: Good lord, come on, come on.
Speaker 3: Kind of like Mom on the couch, because once we
Speaker 3: started talking about her shooting a baby out while she
Speaker 3: was screaming, the visual made it funnier for me.
Speaker 2: It's a boy. Yeah, so I could use that during
Speaker 2: the show.
Speaker 4: I like, that's my favorite.
Speaker 2: Eh oh man. I was having my compound fracture, reset
Speaker 2: had a baby and found out that Gamala hairs lost
Speaker 2: at the same time.
Speaker 4: Rough night.
Speaker 2: It's wort's about eight hundred dollars.
Speaker 4: I can learn to scream.
Speaker 2: Well, I guess that's it.
