00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of The

Speaker 1: Weekly Zeitgeist. Uh. These are some of our favorite segments

00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: from this week, all edited together into one NonStop infotainment

4
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:22,440
Speaker 1: last stravaganza. Uh yeah, So, without further ado, here is

5
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: the Weekly Zeitgeist Today's Inner Circle Flip. It'll be Friday's

6
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: when you're listening to this. A few days back, so

7
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: there might have been, like we said, Baron and Milania

8
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: might have flipped by now. But on Friday, gentleman by

9
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: the name of Alan Weisselberg, it was announced, it was

10
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: granted immunity is expected to cooperate. And he is a

11
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 1: name that I actually heard for the first time from

12
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 1: Adam Davidson, who was a New Yorker reporter who was

13
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: the dude who like six or seven weeks ago when

14
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: Cohen's office was for rated, was like, oh, this is

15
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: the beginning of the end of the Trump presidency. This

16
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 1: is gonna be like really bad for him, and kind

17
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 1: of called that like Cohen knew where the bodies were

18
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: buried and that this was going to be a big problem.

19
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: So that same reporter yesterday I heard him say that

20
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: Alan Weiselberg will be one of the most famous names

21
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 1: in the history of the country when it's all said

22
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: and done, because he's basically been the CFO for the

23
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 1: Trump organization since the seventies, so he knows literally all

24
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 1: the crimes that Trump has committed. Uh, and Trump has

25
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: committed all the crimes. So it works kind yeah exactly.

26
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 1: So I don't know, it's interesting. It just seems like

27
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: one after another. And also, Weislberg was called by prosecutors

28
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: in a different case and it seemed like he was

29
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: ready to just roll over on Trump. Like immediately he

30
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: was like, I don't like this. He's like, yeah, he

31
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: did it. He did that. If anybody wants the power.

32
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: It was like, he did that. Guilty at foot, he

33
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: crushed my yoker. He The thing is is Adam is

34
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: seventy one? Right, yeah, So I'm like, Trump, why are

35
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 1: you not? What's y'all plan You're gonna murder him? Or

36
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: what make it look like an accident. If we've learned

37
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: anything from this presidency, it is that all conspiracy theories

38
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: must be wrong, or at least any conspiracy theories involving

39
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: these people, because it's just nothing but incompetence. They had

40
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: no plans to get away with these crimes. They had

41
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: no plan in place to actually get away with the crime.

42
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: Trump was like, no, I'll just tell people I didn't

43
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: do it right and they'll believe me as as are

44
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 1: a resident like scam expert. You must just be shaking

45
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: your head. Well, I'm shaking my head at Trump. But

46
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: I'm impressed with Adam Weisberg, because you know, when you

47
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,119
Speaker 1: get offered immunity, it's because you yourself was committing mad

48
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 1: crimes as well. You was, you know what I mean,

49
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: Like you didn't kill the person, but you definitely dug

50
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: up a little bit of the land to put the

51
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: body in, Like you know what I mean. He was like,

52
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: hold on, you get tired, Trump, let me get that shovel. Fam,

53
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 1: I got you involved, you know what I mean. Love

54
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: to see a movie from him about the Trump organization

55
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: from his perspective played by Lacy who I gotta pay off.

56
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: Okay she on Hollywood and what okay Hollywood And okay,

57
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pay it right now here. We got your money, bitch.

58
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: Don't say nothing. It saysn't me. People a right, Like

59
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: all right, Trump, what we're doing now? Russia ship? All right?

60
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: When we get that Goovaco over there, let's go, let's go.

61
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: So I just think he's the best camera because he

62
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: got to commit all the crime adjacent you know. Yeah,

63
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: so he was in the call the sack of crime,

64
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: the CFO for a crime family, right, and he has

65
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: now been granted immunity. That's pretty but that's because then

66
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: he got to live his whole life be as shady

67
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: as fun and now it's never gonna go to jail

68
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: for it. Like, you don't ever want to be the kingpin,

69
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? You want to be the

70
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: hinchman who live in real good, the guy behind the guy.

71
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: So honestly, it feels like you have to send an

72
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: email in the subject that says immunity please, I work

73
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: for Trump, and then you got it and you just

74
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: have to talk. It seems like anyone could get it

75
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 1: at this point, as long as you've got dirt, Like

76
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: this entire organization is filled with people. I'm just like Trump,

77
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 1: why you don't got no muscle? Like you got nobody

78
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: to intimidate people, Like was the guy who was like

79
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: I take a bullet foot, Mr Trump? And then do

80
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: you think Avanka is gonna go for it? I don't

81
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 1: know if she's gonna go for it, but she's in

82
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: trouble if she I think she should. She's got some

83
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 1: issues that she needs to get that immunity for everybody

84
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: protect her uncomfortable lass shoe line. She's like, who's gonna

85
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: put give bit of stress fractures if I'm not in business? Okay,

86
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: have you tried on, yes, a vodka Trump Avoca Trump

87
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,239
Speaker 1: shoes are terribly narrow and they immediately hurt your feet

88
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: as soon as you put them on, and they cheap.

89
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: You can't run from the cops and nose and only

90
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: body heels I can run from the cops in. That's

91
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: incredibly narrows. Who's gonna sell pay for last shoes for

92
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: bit just to sit in? Okay, that's women's shoes for

93
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: running from the cops. That's Jessica Simpsons some real I

94
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: was about to give them scale at least the ten

95
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: foot fence in some of those, okay, because she was

96
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: doing it while pregnant, so she right jest shoe game

97
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: a lot. At first I was laughing. I was like,

98
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: jes okay. Then I put them ships on and said, okay, bit,

99
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: stop saying it, because this is your college and it

100
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: don't sing no more. Don't you ever sing another note

101
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: in your life? I don't want you're singing in the shower.

102
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: But yes, I think that everybody's just rolling over a Trump.

103
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 1: It's it's crazy to me, like there's no loyalty in

104
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 1: this there there. Yeah, And I mean I think people

105
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: are smart enough to see that he has no loyalty

106
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: to anybody. So you know he's not gonna he's not

107
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 1: gonna back anybody up, obviously, but yeah, he it's starting

108
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: into like resivate dogs where they're all pointing. Guys, everybody's

109
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: shooting each other. Does the Spider Man mean they're just

110
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: looking at it like we thought Cohen went back far

111
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,799
Speaker 1: with Trump. But this dude has been running the family

112
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: business since nineteen seventy. He's a CFO, so he has

113
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: all the like literal receipts, and you know, he probably

114
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: has the evidence that Trump has not in any way

115
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: stepped back from running his company and any corrupt ship

116
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: that he did with his company and foreign governments, which

117
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: I mean I would literally be shocked if there weren't

118
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: some of that. So yeah, that's what's going down on Friday, Alright, guys,

119
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: John McCain passed away. We knew that he had stopped

120
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: receiving medical treatment, and then over the weekend he passed,

121
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 1: like almost the day after that announcement was made. It

122
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: was really fast. But he's getting I think lionized as

123
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: probably the proper terminology. And I think he's like a

124
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: complex figure who owned up to his own complexity. Like

125
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: I feel like he owned some of his failures, like

126
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: he was pro Iraq war and he he was frothing

127
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: at the pants from Yeah, he beat the drum for

128
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: every war we've had during his lifetime. And he also

129
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: I think his decision to bring Palin in was an

130
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 1: early precursor to Trump is um and the whole mega

131
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: movement because on like his campaign became all these rallies

132
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: where Palin was out there talking about the lamestream media

133
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: and you know, just basically presaging all the all the

134
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: ship that would go down during Trump's campaign and like

135
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: not gonna give me with gotcha questions, right, Like have

136
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: you read a book, Oh, not hit me with these

137
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 1: gotcha questions? Just one magazine that you've read an article from,

138
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 1: Oh that's what it was. Right. But then he eventually

139
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: came out and said you know, the Iraq War was

140
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: a bad idea, and that Palin was not the right decision.

141
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: And the thing that I think he deserves a lot

142
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: of credit for is trying to reform campaign finance the

143
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: way that the government is financed. Didn't end up being effective. Well,

144
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: that basically put large donors in the driver's seat for

145
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: policy essentially, right, Well, what he did, I mean, no, no,

146
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: but that's but then we've now that's all changed now

147
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: that they were trying to stave off the influence of

148
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: large donors, which is the main like that one of

149
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: the main problems with our whole you know, political system,

150
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: which is a corporate ocracy, right, And he was trying

151
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: to solve that. But I hadn't realized that the reason

152
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: he was trying to solve that is because right when

153
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: he became him, uh congress person, he was implicated in

154
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: a scandal where he passed legislation that was favorable to

155
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: somebody who had donated to him. There was the bad

156
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,559
Speaker 1: and the good on all sides, and I think that's

157
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: important to keep in mind. And like even at the

158
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: end his last speech was like I lived a good life,

159
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: but I wasn't perfect and owned up to his own

160
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: failure and also acknowledge something that I feel like it's

161
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: important for really successful people to acknowledge, which was how

162
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 1: lucky he was. Uh so, yeah, sorry to cut you off, Miles. No, No,

163
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: I'm just you know, I think, yes, there were a

164
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 1: lot of you know, they're these hagiographic descriptions of his

165
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 1: life basically. But on the other side, you see a

166
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,959
Speaker 1: lot of people just sort of being like, this is

167
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: why he's so evil, And yes, I think you can

168
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: give credence to those things. I mean, being the biggest

169
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: cheerleader for the Iraq War, which basically destabilized and entire

170
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: reason it caused massive loss of life and it was

171
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: a total waste of money can't be overstated enough. But

172
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: I think, really what the people are seeing is I feel,

173
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 1: you know, he acted honorably according to what his own

174
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: political beliefs are and who he was as a person

175
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: and his experiences as a man. I can't take that

176
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: away from him, you know. I got into it my

177
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 1: mom this weekend. She was like, I hope to see

178
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: McCain up there one day, and I was like, what

179
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: are you talking about, like on the political on the movie.

180
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think she just mentioned that was

181
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 1: her just kind of waxing poetic that she felt bad

182
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: because in any way, yeah, I think so. I think

183
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: that too, even though she didn't really believe in That's

184
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: why I was like, what what you watch? I understand

185
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 1: that it's a complex thing, and I'm not like out

186
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 1: here celebrating his death or anything like that, but I

187
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: think one thing that's weird is he's sort of being

188
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: held up as like the last bastion of politeness. When

189
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: this man like called his wife a c u nt

190
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: in public, he called Iranyan's monkeys, he called he literally

191
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: sang the song bom Bom bom bom bomb Iran. He

192
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 1: called a teenage Chelsea Clinton ugly, saying Janet Reno was

193
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: her father. She was like thirteen or fourteen at the time.

194
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: So he done a lot of things that aren't plight

195
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: and are not the bastion of platinism, I mean, publicly

196
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: railing against Martin Luther King Day. He's done a lot

197
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: of that's pretty unforgiving of weird stuff. I mean, even

198
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 1: the thing that everyone is spreading right now about when

199
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: someone said Obama is an Arab and he said he's

200
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: not an Arab, he's a decent man, sort of implying

201
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 1: that Arabs and decent men. And I understand that it

202
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: was a cough of spur of the moment thing, but

203
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: let's let's rewrite history. It always scares me as a

204
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 1: person of color to see us like rewriting history like

205
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 1: the bar is so low. Yes, he was like maybe

206
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: the last Republican who tried at least tried to do

207
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: some bipartisan things, because the Republican Party now seems to

208
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: be so down the line sheep um, And we can

209
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: talk about that, but I just get a little weary

210
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 1: of the rewriting of history, yeah, or sanitizing it like that,

211
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: and just sort of looking at that. And I think

212
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 1: one of the reasons too, is he kind of marks

213
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: that death of like the GOP in general, of like

214
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: what it used to look like where these people weren't

215
00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: so caught up in their ideology and unable to look

216
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: at a problem objectively and not in such a partisan

217
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: manner and be like this is not a good thing

218
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: for people, not is this good for my party or

219
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: is this good for my reelection bid or things like that.

220
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 1: You know, there was a shred of bipartisanship to him,

221
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: and I think that's what people are really kind of

222
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 1: lamenting to her or just feeling that they've lost, because

223
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: I don't know who looks like that now. At this point,

224
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: everyone is completely inconsistent. I don't know any people in

225
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: the GOP. Granted, the mistakes that John McCain made were

226
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: pretty major, but he later on in life was able

227
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: to look back and say, Okay, that might have been

228
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: a mistake. But I don't know if anyone has that

229
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 1: sort of a to be, certainly not the current leader

230
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 1: of that party. You know, Donald Trump, which there's a

231
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 1: lot of ways that he's like sort of the anti

232
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: Trump because he did acknowledge his funk ups in some cases,

233
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: and he seemed to like drama when it came to

234
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: like fucking with Trump because he specifically didn't invite him

235
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: to his funeral, and also like the thumbs down thing,

236
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: even though he went on to you know, basically undermine

237
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:12,479
Speaker 1: the individual mandate like six months later when the Republicans

238
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: were very publicly trying to end Obamacare, he did the

239
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 1: big thumbs down things. So it's like, I think it's

240
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 1: natural that they were set up as sort of different

241
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: sides of like some sort of conflict at the heart

242
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: of the Republican Party. And I'm just interested to see,

243
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 1: like we're already seeing that Trump can't deal with people

244
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,439
Speaker 1: paying tribute to McCain or anyone who isn't him. And

245
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 1: what a low bar for the GOP that were like, well,

246
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 1: at least he wasn't a public racist only kind and

247
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: like I mean with the Roy Moore thing in album,

248
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: like what a low bar, like like the pedophile almost

249
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 1: one right, Yeah, it's it's well, at least he's not

250
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 1: a pedophile as an out like the bar for the GOP. Yeah. Well,

251
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: I mean he did say a lot of stuff, McCain

252
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 1: that was he spoke out against the president, but he

253
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 1: voted something like a three percent of the time with

254
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: the party, you know, and even people like Jeff Flake

255
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: and Bob Corker who don't face the existential threat of

256
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: being primaried, who were talking a good game, they still

257
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 1: aren't voting like that. Yeah, And that's the thing I

258
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: take issue with, And and I realized that's just the

259
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: way this fucking system works. Though you're not really gonna

260
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: find even on the left, you're not gonna find people

261
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: like that because everyone sort of lives in this world where, well,

262
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: how am I gonna stay in office? How am I

263
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: going to stay in office? If the polls did because

264
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: I've back this certain bill or I this comment, then

265
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to have to get back in line or whatever.

266
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: I think that's that's always something that has to be,

267
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: you know, considered when we look at the behavior of

268
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 1: a lot of our politicians. But yeah, Donald Trump, watching

269
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: Who Was America on Showtime every now and then, I

270
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 1: watched the clips. I've probably watched three full episodes. I've

271
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: watched all of them, and one thing that's fastened to

272
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: me is he's he went after politicians on both sides.

273
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: And it was amazing to me that for the most part,

274
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: the Barney Franks and the Bernie Sanders and the Ted

275
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: Copples and things like that, we're all like, this is ridiculous,

276
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 1: and they walked out of the interview, and the politician

277
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: on the other side, we're not doing that. They fully

278
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: are going forth and end up doing insane things. And

279
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: I realize there's editing, and I realized there's producers, and

280
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 1: I realized there's a lot of stuff that goes into that.

281
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: But it was very telling to me that the politicians

282
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: saw him on one side were like this is stupid,

283
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: I'm out of here. Yeah. Well another's like, oh, this

284
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: is gonna be a TV where okay, yeah um, And

285
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 1: that's why you know, we have President pettiness who's at

286
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: full turned pettiness up to on the knob. Yeah. And

287
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: he also his tweet was my deepest sympathies go to

288
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: the family of McCain. And also he tweeted a picture

289
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: of himself looking at there was another yeah, like with

290
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: that text, it was like him a photo of him

291
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: on this side, not even if John McCain. And then

292
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: the Potus account just or maybe as the White House

293
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: account just tweeted his face with his life and death

294
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: dates on it like nothing else. And then there's also

295
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: reporting coming out that the White House had fully drafted

296
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: a press release to come from the Office of the

297
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: President that talked about his service as a soldier as

298
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: a politician and calling him a hero, and Trump did

299
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: not like that and was basically put the kai bosh

300
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 1: on that is between some Yeah, so I think it

301
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: makes sense, like I think if as we see people

302
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: lionizing him like that is definitely not completely in keeping

303
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: or fully acknowledging the entirety of his legacy. But it

304
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: makes sense to me symbolically because we're at this point

305
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: where the actual head of the Republican Party is just

306
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: things are going in such a terrible direction, and one

307
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: that you know, after Tuesday of last week, people now

308
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: on both sides are sort of having to knowledge like

309
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: the deal that they made with the devil. So think

310
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: about how many lives are being destroyed or affected negatively

311
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: because of one man's insecurity. Trouble is the most insecure

312
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,360
Speaker 1: man I think I've ever read about. And I don't

313
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:20,360
Speaker 1: know we're in we're in Hollywood, though we've probably I mean,

314
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: this man can't. He's the president. He's literally the most

315
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 1: powerful person. But yeah, he's a symptom of this sort

316
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 1: of system we have where connivers and cheaters win, and

317
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 1: so naturally we get someone like this who ascends to

318
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 1: power because that's sort of been the playing field. And

319
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 1: I think this is the the the punctuation on what

320
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:46,199
Speaker 1: the what I guess, old school gop UH politicians look like.

321
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: And now you have this new crew because then you

322
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: have Kelly Ward, who's running for Jeff Flake Senate seat

323
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 1: in Arizona. She tried to claim that the announcement of

324
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,880
Speaker 1: McCain's family saying we're going to take him off, we're

325
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: stopping the treatment, the cancer treatment. She was like, oh

326
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: they did that to funk with my bus tour. Hmm,

327
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: Like really, like what the funk? And that shows you

328
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,919
Speaker 1: the state the worldview of some of these new incoming

329
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 1: people who are looking to old Donald Trump is in office. Okay,

330
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: now now you're seeing more people of this sort of

331
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 1: ilk come forward, just from pathological narcissists. Yeah, and who

332
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: are just who are trying to make the announcement of

333
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 1: of someone who even you know, despite our disagreement with

334
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: his politics, done more for the you know, as a

335
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: as a politician from the state of Arizona, and you

336
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 1: want to just say, oh, he's sucking up my bus tour,

337
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:35,959
Speaker 1: Mike Cernovich, come on now. Um. So, despite you know,

338
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,439
Speaker 1: as we acknowledged the you know, McCain being flawed to

339
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: awful and certain circumstances, there's also this idea that's being

340
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:49,159
Speaker 1: floated that they should rename the Senate building for him,

341
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: and Miles you're kind of behind this idea. Well, yeah,

342
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 1: of course, I'm Chuck Schumer. I think was the first

343
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 1: person to be like I would like to put forward

344
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: a proposal to rename the you know, the Russell Senate building.

345
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: There's the recented building, so the one specifically named after

346
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: Richard Russell, to change it to name it after John McCain,

347
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: which I think is probably a better idea when you

348
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 1: look back at who Richard Russell was, who was a

349
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: Georgia you know, straight up Southern Democrat, who you know.

350
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: Let me just read you a quote from the campaign

351
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,360
Speaker 1: trail when he was running for office. As one who

352
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: was born and reared in the atmosphere of the Old South,

353
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 1: with six generations of my forebears now resting beneath Southern soil,

354
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: I'm willing to go as far and make as great

355
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: as sacrifice to preserve and ensure white supremacy in the social, economic,

356
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: and political life of our state as any man who

357
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: lives within her borders. So right, that's enough. I don't

358
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 1: have to go yeah, I don't have to go into

359
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 1: it anymore. I mean, okay, let me just say, even

360
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: white supremacists don't say white supremacy. Boy, that's a data

361
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 1: term they try and use. You know, they used dog

362
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 1: whistling now, but he you know, he Philip bustered the

363
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: federal ban on inching twice and called the Civil Rights

364
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 1: Act short sighted and disastrous piece of legislation, and you know,

365
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: he was sort of basically really was one of the leaders,

366
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: you know, led the Southern charge against the civil rights movement.

367
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean that's old. You know. I think

368
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: one of the reasons though, why the building was named

369
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: after him is because he was a very effective politician.

370
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,880
Speaker 1: Like he knew how the Senate worked, and he knew

371
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 1: how to game it. And he was a very astute

372
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 1: student of politics and would read all the agendas and

373
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: things and understand what the next day was going to

374
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 1: look like on the Senate floor and really played the game.

375
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: And I think in that sense, maybe that is why

376
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: they were able to overlook these other things. And like, well,

377
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 1: he was a very effective senator. He knew how to

378
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 1: get stuff me. People believe that. Now. He was born

379
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: in eighteen nineties seven, so people a lot of people

380
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: believed what he was talking about then. Yeah, he probably

381
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 1: had the majority of and a lot of people say,

382
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 1: like it's a it makes sense. You know, Chuck Schumer

383
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 1: is looking at the optics of it, like, oh, change

384
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 1: the name of building. Who is someone who was a democrat,

385
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: and now name it after every publican right, and probably

386
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: everyone will be behind that because he was very was

387
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 1: very well liked amongst his peers. So yeah, it's like

388
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: anything when you look back at half the buildings and

389
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: the statues that we have erected, and people who was

390
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,880
Speaker 1: like these aren't dating well at all. Alright, well, we're

391
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:27,640
Speaker 1: going to take a quick break and we'll be right back. Alright,

392
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: we're back. So I did want to talk about the

393
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 1: year two thousand eight. I think you guys were in

394
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:39,199
Speaker 1: elementary school at that time, but eighteen, But yeah, I

395
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: was in high school when I was back until I

396
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 1: was eighteen, and elementary school. I mentioned that I had

397
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: seen was a very large I mentioned that I had

398
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: seen Crookland in movie theaters earlier, and I just got mercilessly.

399
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 1: I was a kid. It was likely goes in the

400
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 1: movie theaters when the man was playing the piano was

401
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 1: what was the last chapter film? Chaplain was a junius.

402
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 1: So uh. Simon Richard's dad wrote an article about how

403
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: two thousand eight was the year of the American dream died,

404
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 1: and I don't know, he makes some good points like.

405
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,640
Speaker 1: He starts out talking about how if you were standing

406
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 1: in the ashes of nine eleven looking into the future

407
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 1: and you saw that there had been no subsequent major

408
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 1: terror attacks, American troops were not in any ground war,

409
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 1: American workers were enjoying four percent unemployment, you know, the

410
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: stock market was booming up two d and fifty percent

411
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: since September two thousand one, and that the most admired

412
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: person America, according to Gallup, is the nation's first black president,

413
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,679
Speaker 1: a man no one had heard of at that time.

414
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 1: And that comedy, which is the one art whose currency

415
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: is after is the culture's greatest growth industry. That was

416
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 1: his editorializing I'll take it, though for a comedy, but

417
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 1: he was like, what's not to like about that? And

418
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: then you know, he points out that actually the mood

419
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: in America is as dark as it's ever been. Birth

420
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: rate is at a record lowan the suicide rate is

421
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 1: at a thirty year high, and he's basically points to

422
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 1: the two thousand and eight stock market collapse as being

423
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: the time when this sort of rose colored glasses that

424
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: we've had on for the American dream and for you know,

425
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: this idea that just hard work and idealism would all

426
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: lift us up by the bootstraps like that. Those were

427
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: just kind of taken off and everyone was like, oh,

428
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: it's a scam. The whole thing is a fucking scam.

429
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: So sad when that scam unraveled. It was a good one. Yeah,

430
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: it was really had a whole brand white picket fence. Yeah,

431
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:02,680
Speaker 1: which is tacky, just so everyone knows. People still love

432
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 1: that ship though. Yo, it's wild too because like that

433
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,160
Speaker 1: whole time when things like ship was good, I feel

434
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: like everything felt like it was possible, and now we're

435
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: living in a time where I'm just like, oh funk.

436
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 1: Like I saw an advertisement I'm so millennial s advertise

437
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,159
Speaker 1: my Facebook that was like experience everything. Oh nothing. I

438
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 1: was like, damn, that's really what we are here doing.

439
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 1: The like like I'm written everything. You know now you

440
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:30,679
Speaker 1: can ren a dishwasher, you can rent anything. So I

441
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 1: mean because they like, you know, I do my dishes

442
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: in it, and then I passed it to my favor.

443
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: You got an old ship. It's cumbersome. I won't not

444
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 1: like pushing it back and forth, but it's but it's true,

445
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 1: like owning a home is not even something that I

446
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 1: feel like a lot of millennials are thinking about you

447
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,439
Speaker 1: know what I mean, because it's not as possible all

448
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 1: that because the baby boomers won't die. Yeah, I mean, part,

449
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 1: like literally part of the American dream was owning a house,

450
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: like getting the white picket fence. And as he points out,

451
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: that was like the foundation of the collapse in two

452
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 1: thousand eight was homeownership. And it was like, yeah, no,

453
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 1: none of you could pay for those houses what we

454
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,199
Speaker 1: said you could pay for. And the way he put it,

455
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,120
Speaker 1: he said, when talks about how like we believed that

456
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: rising tide lifts all boats, and he said, when the

457
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: tide pulled back in two thousand eight to reveal the

458
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: ruins underneath, the country got an indelible picture of just

459
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 1: how much inequality had been banked by the top one

460
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: percent over the decades, how many false promises to the

461
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 1: other have been broken, and how many central American institutions,

462
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 1: whether governmental, financial, or corporate, had betrayed the trust the

463
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 1: public had placed in them. And then you know points

464
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: out that unlike nine eleven, which there was like the

465
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 1: nine eleven Commission, we were like, you know, they're all

466
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: these really good books Looming Tower that were like how

467
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 1: the fund, did this happen, and like who was to blame?

468
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: We like built a international is in where they could

469
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 1: like torture people, but the Great Recession it was just

470
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 1: like oh yeah, and they all get away with it

471
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: and like nothing, none of this ship gets fixed. Is

472
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:12,959
Speaker 1: also like a reason that I think does that kind

473
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,400
Speaker 1: of feel like we all just got a little too cocky. Yeah,

474
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: we really did. I mean, it wasn't our fault. I mean.

475
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: But also I think that like with all the de

476
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 1: regulation that the Clinton administration did, which was supposed to

477
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,640
Speaker 1: promote growth, all it did was make everybody like, oh,

478
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: scamming is so easy now, like the god dam and

479
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: it's not even a scam that hasn't happened in history.

480
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 1: Before you take economics, you learn about the whole flower

481
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 1: implosion like that bubbly yeah. Yeah. So it's like we've

482
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: done this before, we know what happens, but we get

483
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: greedy because we're American. But the biggest tragedy of two

484
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: thousand eight is really Jesse McCartney's career, you know what

485
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,959
Speaker 1: I mean, Like he was popping, he has songs on

486
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:53,199
Speaker 1: the Billboard charts, and now I mean it's over for him.

487
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 1: Jesse McCartney and Katy Perry. I Kissed the Girl came

488
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: out in two thousand and eight, and now her career

489
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 1: is trash too. She is so annoying. Sorry, Katie. You

490
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: know she got a shoe line too. I just want

491
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: to help her. Check that out, Katie shoes, help help

492
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,359
Speaker 1: a bit out. Okay, she's a good one. But I

493
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 1: mean it's crazy because we're constantly innovating and we can't

494
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 1: really go back. So it's like, what is the future

495
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 1: for millennials when it comes to ownership. We're definitely not

496
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 1: having kids. We cannot afford them. Yeah. No, I mean

497
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,680
Speaker 1: that's why the birth rate is that an all time.

498
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: That's one of my favorite jokes is like my mom

499
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 1: is like, what am I gonna get some grand babies?

500
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 1: And I'm like, do you have grand babies? Money? You

501
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: got grandchildren? Coins or not? Because I don't. I could

502
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:46,120
Speaker 1: barely support my own mouth. I'm supposed to have little mouths. Yea.

503
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 1: Although I will say seeing the only time I've ever

504
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 1: wanted children was when I saw a picture of Kim

505
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: Kardashian where North was in the back and she had

506
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: she took the photo. I was like, damn, Yeah. It

507
00:27:58,080 --> 00:27:59,919
Speaker 1: was like in a bathroom, so you could see her

508
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 1: little hands like this huge phone taking this photo of

509
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: her mom. And I was like, oh my god, You're like,

510
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 1: I want are picture of me? Only I had a

511
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 1: beautiful baby to take photos of me. You can teach

512
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,439
Speaker 1: the baby yet, as you've got plenty of time, so

513
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 1: training up a child. That is the most millennial things

514
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 1: I've ever said. Actually, but I can't afford one. I can't.

515
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 1: Babies are expensive. Jewel is expensive. I love that there's

516
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: so many articles. Somebody like listed all the articles. I

517
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: was just like, are millennials killing this? Are millennials killing that?

518
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 1: Like it's like, just be cheaper, be cheaper. So I

519
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: guess who's back again? Louise back? Uh So Louis K

520
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 1: did a surprise performance and she masturbated in front of someone.

521
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: Shout out to Twitter, where like a dozen of people

522
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 1: made the joke. Isn't surprise performances what got him in

523
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: trouble in the first place? Doing a surprise performance without

524
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 1: the audience's consent sounds like he learned a lot solid

525
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 1: dead joke. Everyone, well done, Twitter, move on to the

526
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 1: next thing, and racism go well. Apparently h Louis didn't

527
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: mention the fact that he, you know, was in the

528
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: middle of this controversy and not really controversy, that he

529
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 1: had done this horrible action and was just like went

530
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: up there and made observations about tipping waitresses and uhs,

531
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: servers he tips over servers, he tips them over, like yeah,

532
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: like cow tippings. Uh and traffic and racism. He was like, racism,

533
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 1: that's not the one that with right, Okay, so I'll

534
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: do commentary on that. But he did it at the Seller,

535
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 1: which is the the venue where I think in the

536
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: opening of Louise credit like that's his what Yankee Stadiums

537
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 1: and Derek Jeter is what the Seller is to Louis

538
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: c k basically, So it's he went into the most

539
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 1: friendly territory. But who knows if they said he got

540
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: a standing ovation, Yes, that's fucking weird. I don't know.

541
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 1: I don't understand that. It's kicked off a lot of

542
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: stuff because I know Michael ian Black was sort of saying, oh,

543
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 1: it's it's good to see him get out there after

544
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 1: you know, he's just you know, caught up in this

545
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 1: stuff and you're like, uh, way to sort of totally

546
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: mischaracterize all this. Well. Also a lot of the conversations

547
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 1: have been around like how will these abusers, like how

548
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: can we reintegrate them into society and how can they

549
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 1: redeem themselves? And it's like, well, first of all, that

550
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 1: should not be the priority. Like the priority should be

551
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: like paying attention to the victims and the people like

552
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 1: the women who quit comedy and like their careers in

553
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 1: comedy are over because they spoke out and then they

554
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: were threatened and you know, black balled and all that stuff.

555
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 1: So like the focus in a lot of these conversations

556
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: has been I'm like, oh, the abusers, and like what

557
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 1: are we gonna do about them? It's turned into all

558
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: abusers basically, is what you can distill a lot of

559
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: that sentiment down what it's been ten months. Once it

560
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 1: gonna be enough, guys, come on, like what the fuck? Honestly,

561
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: like for the ship he did, he would probably spend

562
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 1: more time in jail than nine months if that went

563
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 1: to a trial, right, And you were like you were

564
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 1: like locking people in from a masturbasing I mean an

565
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 1: ideal world, yeah, but our justice system. But I mean

566
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: like if you if you even took by the rubric

567
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: of if most of the time the justice system fails

568
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: the victims of these things. Even if he were to

569
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: do that, it would be more than nine months, So

570
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 1: he's actually even doing less time, just late, keeping low.

571
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: I don't understand, it's been a whole thing. We've just

572
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: seen in the last four months two of a lot

573
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: of people starting to talk about how am I going

574
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: to get back in, already trying to sound out more

575
00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: opportunities for themselves. And I don't think that redemption necessarily

576
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: means Okay, you were on time out long enough, now

577
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: come back to your seat of power and wealth and

578
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 1: there you go, when that was the exact thing you

579
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: were weaponizing to behave in this manner. So at the

580
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: very least, he hasn't even done the bare minimum of

581
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 1: convincing people that he actually understands what he did, right,

582
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 1: he's still not holding himself accountable for what he did

583
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 1: at all. My proposal for if there is any sort

584
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 1: of redemption in these scenarios, and it is your responsibility

585
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: to come up with it as a woman, tell us

586
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: what have you come up with for people like him? T? J. Miller,

587
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: Chris Hardwick, Like they should get rid of all their wealth,

588
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: give it to like rain or something, an organization like

589
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 1: that getting marooned onto that like giant pile of trash

590
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: that's floating around, and then um live on that in

591
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: obscurity until they pass away. Wow. Okay, so that's my

592
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: idea of their redemption justice corner with there probably is

593
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: like enough food out there, like in the garbage that waste,

594
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 1: so much food waste. I mean, just open up one

595
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 1: of those malformed, sun warped bottles of whatever and there's

596
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: probably some kind of nutrients in there for you. Our

597
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: writer J M McNab was pointing out that while it

598
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 1: seems like we are giving Louis parole for good behavior

599
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: or no behavior, Woody Allen is it looks like being

600
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: sort of blacklisted in a good way. I don't know,

601
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: can you blacklist someone in a good way? I mean,

602
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 1: first of all, his movies have never really been financially successful,

603
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 1: and so he always relies on wealthy people to be like, hey, yeah,

604
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: we'll pay for your movie because it's cool for us

605
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: to say we were attached to a Woody Allen movie.

606
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: And now that it is becoming more and more kind

607
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 1: of acknowledged that he sexually abused a child at the

608
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: very least that you know, that's an longer a cool thing.

609
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 1: And so he is for the first time since the

610
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 1: year nine one. He is not going to be releasing

611
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 1: a movie this year, which he really tends to turn

612
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: those out. But he does not have a movie on

613
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 1: the horizon because he can't avoid he can't find any

614
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: back he can't find any financial backers. Yeah, well, they

615
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:24,879
Speaker 1: said he's taking time off to look for financial backers. Like, oh, well,

616
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: I think that means he's taking time off to find

617
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: people with no moral scruples. Yeah, he's what that is, right,

618
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: So I don't fucking like glue. Come on, now, you

619
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 1: got to know this is not right. Going up there

620
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 1: and just like completely ignoring it and talking about tipping

621
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 1: is the worst thing. You can't write. It seems very

622
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 1: I don't know, because you could. That's like being like

623
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 1: an injured athlete, where're like, all right, well, my knee

624
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 1: healed back up and I'm back out there. Nothing went wrong, right,

625
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: I mean, it's like, yeah, okay, you've completely well. As

626
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 1: we said, we're always wondering how long it would take

627
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 1: from these people to think that you get confident enough

628
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 1: to be like, okay, let's dip the tone in and

629
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,279
Speaker 1: see what happens. I hope that there will be enough

630
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 1: public outcry that he will understand that no one, I'm

631
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: certainly not interested in seeing him come back anytime soon,

632
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 1: that they'll that will translate. But again, you think about

633
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 1: all the people that depend on him for a check,

634
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: like publicists and asianthing like that. They're probably thinking, they're like, yeah,

635
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: like let's okay, let's see maybe let's see if this

636
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 1: cash can can can start generating something like that. That's

637
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,760
Speaker 1: a point that I've heard made about, just in the

638
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 1: context of Trump's scandal, that celebrities are entire industries. They

639
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: basically have an industries built around them that are designed

640
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 1: to keep their careers moving forward because lots of paychecks

641
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 1: come from that specific individual. And so Trump has this

642
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 1: whole He's a celebrity first, then a politician, so he

643
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,839
Speaker 1: has this whole infrastructure of people who are covering up

644
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: his crimes to keep the page X coming through. And yeah,

645
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: I think the same goes here. Uh they said, I

646
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: think one person called to complain about him appearing at

647
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: the club that day. I announced too. It would be like, yo'

648
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 1: I'm surprised I guess though, again because it is the seller,

649
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 1: like that's a specific audience, like, yeah, that appeals to

650
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 1: that's gosh, what was this stand? Is? Like? If you

651
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 1: don't stand whatever, we'll see. There is a great list

652
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 1: that I found particularly useful going around of fifty one

653
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 1: comedians who never forced women to watch them masturbate. And uh,

654
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 1: there's some great comedians on their one of our other shows, Uh,

655
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: Couples Therapy is on their, Brandy Posey, Barbara Gray, A

656
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,560
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of great comedians who you have.

657
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 1: Riley Silverman. SA just heard last week Sarah Ashling b

658
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 1: O Jesus and Marrow all right shout out that although

659
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 1: don't no Meryl, he said he was into some scumbag

660
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 1: stuff back in the day. So there's been a couple

661
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:11,399
Speaker 1: of stories now about young folks knocking maga hats off

662
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 1: of classmates. I think this is an interesting debate because

663
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 1: both examples of it happening that I'm aware of, the

664
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 1: students got charged with battery and like there was one

665
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 1: in San Antonio Wendy's I think where a dude like

666
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 1: ripped it off of a kid and then and it

667
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 1: was caught on video. He also I think dumped a

668
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 1: drinking their face. Yeah. And then in this case, a

669
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,320
Speaker 1: young woman named Joe and Butler could face battery criminal

670
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,399
Speaker 1: charges after she admitted to stealing a Maga hat from

671
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: a classmate at Union Mine High School in El Dorado, California.

672
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:54,839
Speaker 1: Why would you admit it? Ding dong? But she was

673
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 1: just like, yeah, I'm tired of having to go to

674
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: class with people who are wearing what is basically a

675
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 1: symbol of hate and racism smell if I can't, I

676
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 1: don't know if I can disagree with that, Like if

677
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 1: if people are wearing like Nazi hats, like yeah, I

678
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 1: think the argument is like, well, just because I wear

679
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: this doesn't mean there's therefore blah blah blah. But I

680
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 1: think at the very least the school should realize that

681
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: this is disrupting the student body by letting people wear

682
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: these things. I mean, I'm sure if some kid was

683
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: rocking Antifa ship there will be some group of ship

684
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 1: heads who would try and funk with that kid in

685
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 1: the same way. Well, I mean, look at look at

686
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,360
Speaker 1: it from this perspective. So like, the schools already have

687
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: a list of things because they're quote unquote disruptive to

688
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 1: the learning process of what students can and can't wear,

689
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:44,920
Speaker 1: like women in particularly, it comes down on like like

690
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 1: we're seeing more and more, more and more young girls

691
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: being sent home because they have shorts on or because

692
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,280
Speaker 1: they wearing tank tops that that you know, the school

693
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:57,240
Speaker 1: is considering that it's too revealing. Black women in particular

694
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 1: have had their hair police for forever. That's crazy. So

695
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 1: it's like you can't say that the school already doesn't

696
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 1: engage in this kind of behavior. And it's like we

697
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 1: are in a political climate where like if you are

698
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,240
Speaker 1: are are from a marginalized community, if you're if you're queer,

699
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 1: if you're a person of color, you know, if you

700
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 1: have a disability, etcetera, cotcetera, etcetera, the way that you

701
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:21,280
Speaker 1: have to navigate life is with caution. And so for

702
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:24,879
Speaker 1: for these maga chud's, it's like, well, you know, I'm

703
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 1: being targeted because you know, because of my hat, And

704
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 1: it's like, well, you have something that you can take off.

705
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 1: For these people, they don't, That is their existence is

706
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 1: a target. And so like learn a little bit of

707
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 1: empathy number one. It's like that that reaction that you

708
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 1: have right there, and then with like well I just

709
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: don't think it's fair because I'm a white male and

710
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: I like chap that I should be treated this way.

711
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:51,240
Speaker 1: And it's like, okay, that right there, you've identified the problem.

712
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 1: Now just extend that to people who don't fucking look

713
00:39:55,040 --> 00:40:00,080
Speaker 1: like you. Yeah, the white fragility is staggering. Well, but

714
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,720
Speaker 1: they have, but they have to become victims of something

715
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 1: to operate properly, because they can't just be full to like, yeah,

716
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 1: we were on top and I can keep this heat on. Well,

717
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,359
Speaker 1: there's there's really interesting conversations to kind of be had

718
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:14,240
Speaker 1: their like a really nuanced way. So I was listening

719
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,359
Speaker 1: to this guy, Michael Kimmel, and he's kind of an

720
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 1: expert on like masculinity, and he was talking about how

721
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: like the promise of America or the promise of white

722
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 1: America has slowly been stripped away because of capitalism, because

723
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 1: of these multinational corporations. It's limited the economic freedom that

724
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 1: white people once enjoyed. And also I think it's just

725
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 1: the function of this sort of a late stage of

726
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: capitalism that the country's into. Where as you're saying resources

727
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 1: dry up, corporations are trying to dismantle the state, and

728
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 1: every way they can and and pick apart the carcass

729
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 1: of what was once a booming economy, and that I

730
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: think limited opportunity. That's what allows now for people to

731
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 1: be like, hey, it's not the corporations, it's these immigrants,

732
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 1: it's not the corporations. Is black lives matter, It's not

733
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: these corporations, it's gay people, you know what I mean.

734
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: And these are all distractions for this diminished opportunity that

735
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: everyone's feeling, when really it's has nothing to do with that.

736
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 1: They're pitting people against each other when oh, you have

737
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: to look up and be like, wait, who's actually doing

738
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:13,040
Speaker 1: better than everyone else? Because you can say, oh, I

739
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: hate all these you can be xenophobic and all this

740
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 1: other stuff, But you asked this person, are you happy

741
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:18,400
Speaker 1: with your job? Are you happy with your income? Are

742
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 1: you happy with your access to healthcare? Education? Probably not? Uh?

743
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 1: And then and really understand who who's at the levers

744
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 1: making those decisions that are affecting you at that level too,

745
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 1: Yeah and so and so you know when we have

746
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:31,879
Speaker 1: like these debates and we have these talks and people

747
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 1: were like, well, it's it's class, not race, and I'm like, look,

748
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 1: it is partially that, but it is also race because

749
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:43,800
Speaker 1: when you give racists money, they don't suddenly become not racist. Yeah, yeah,

750
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 1: the man. I mean, look, it's it's funny too, like

751
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,399
Speaker 1: you said, like in school, Like I went to school

752
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 1: where my classmate he had dreadlocks, and they were like,

753
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 1: for years they were trying to be like, you know,

754
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 1: it's an unnatural hairstyle. It's oh fuck you. There's a

755
00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 1: girl who was just sent home the other day where

756
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 1: she was crying. There was a video of her because

757
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 1: they kept saying, oh, your your hairstyle is unnatural because

758
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,439
Speaker 1: she had you know, she had Yeah, And the same thing.

759
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 1: I remember, I couldn't have a fucking lineup or a

760
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 1: fade in high school because they're like, uh, you know,

761
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,879
Speaker 1: that's that's too edgy or something. I was like, you're

762
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: just trying to do you just don't want me to

763
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,879
Speaker 1: rock my hairstyle the way I had it. I had

764
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 1: a part once in high school. They were like, yo,

765
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,839
Speaker 1: you gotta go to the fucking Dean and ship's here.

766
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 1: I came back with two parts the next week. Um. Yeah,

767
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 1: So let's maybe think about not letting people wear magga

768
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:37,359
Speaker 1: hats to school the very least clearly that it's it's

769
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,279
Speaker 1: causing problems, and people do it to antagonize people. It's

770
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 1: not that's the fascists to antagonize people of color. Your

771
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 1: class fascist statement, I mean fascist EASTA. I mean it

772
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 1: happened right after the election two and these in school

773
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: kids were chanting Trump at brown kids because they knew

774
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 1: it was And that's how it causes distressed. So we

775
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:01,760
Speaker 1: can't even pretend that like, oh, it's just an innocent hands,

776
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 1: just a hat. It's like, no, it's a symbol. It's

777
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,960
Speaker 1: like the dog whistles are gone. Like it. We're talking

778
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:13,280
Speaker 1: like blaring ambulance alarms. We're gonna take a quick break

779
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 1: and we'll be right back. And we're back. And so

780
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 1: is pumpkin spice season. It's that time of year when

781
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 1: we all give ourselves an excuse to basically drink milkshakes

782
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 1: with our morning coffee and take like the level of

783
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: sugar that you get in there and whipped cream. I've

784
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 1: been enjoying the memes where it's basically treated like some

785
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 1: combination of white girl Spanish fly and white girl cat nip,

786
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 1: like in in the meme world. But I guess this

787
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,360
Speaker 1: is in the meme economy. But this is basically I

788
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 1: feel like that and the way I feel about college football,

789
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,839
Speaker 1: where like I don't really like college football or follow it,

790
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 1: but once college football season starts, it like starts to

791
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,240
Speaker 1: feel like faull to me. For whatever reason, I feel

792
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 1: like this is sort of a non sport version of

793
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,319
Speaker 1: that for the consumer culture, consumer based signal that the

794
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 1: seasons are changing. Yes, drinks are brown and this guy

795
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:23,640
Speaker 1: is great. Yeah. I mean that's like the thing where

796
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 1: you go, oh shit, that's right, pumpkin Okay, so it's fall. Yeah,

797
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's how since we no longer have

798
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: seasons because of climate change, it like we there are

799
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: certain indicators like pumpkin spice. Oh, it's fall. It's like

800
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 1: the McRib. Oh it's summer, right, shamrocks shake, It's March, yeah,

801
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: shamrocks in March. It's only March. Right. I'm glad some

802
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 1: things are still respected if they had a year round,

803
00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that to me would be runaway capitalism.

804
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. In this office, there's clearly there's some

805
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 1: people who fucking hate the pumpkin spice lattes people who

806
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,080
Speaker 1: love the pumpkin spice lat day. To me, I don't

807
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: really give a fuck. Drink whatever the funk you want.

808
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,319
Speaker 1: You don't throw your money whatever you want to. But

809
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: we all know that the best seasonal beverage from a

810
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: coffee shop is the winter dream t latte from coffee

811
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 1: bean tastes like mulling spices. I'm a big fan of

812
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 1: the egg nog glattes. Isn't that thing like so calorically so?

813
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,320
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that until I looked at the calories,

814
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: and it's got like a hundred more calories than the

815
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 1: pumpkin spice, like the ones that are already famous for

816
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,200
Speaker 1: being calorically dense. They're like, oh yeah, we put an

817
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: egg yolk and two extra pounds of sugar. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

Speaker 1: following for a while. Do you know about Let me

832
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,359
Speaker 1: tell you a little bit about our man, Paul Gonzalez.

833
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:32,440
Speaker 1: He had a nasty habit of setting up like dates

834
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:34,879
Speaker 1: on Tinder or wherever, just setting up dates and being

835
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 1: like and this is all like in l A, like

836
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 1: near Pasadena and stuff. He was saying, Yo, let's meet

837
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: up for a day, blah blah. He would be at

838
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,120
Speaker 1: the restaurant, the woman would show up. She'd be like, oh,

839
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 1: should we eat? He's like, oh, actually already eight, but like, yeah,

840
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:48,640
Speaker 1: let's have something. He would eat a meal with them,

841
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 1: and then like slightly sneak off to the bathroom and

842
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: just run away and leave the woman there with the

843
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,799
Speaker 1: fucking bill like and sometimes would be like ninety bucks,

844
00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 1: other times two fifty dollars, And sometimes he would just

845
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,440
Speaker 1: be like, no, I'm not really hungry. They'd talk for

846
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 1: a second and she would be at the table, and

847
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,000
Speaker 1: then he would just use that as an opportunity to leave,

848
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,200
Speaker 1: because usually what he would do is like show up

849
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:12,080
Speaker 1: hours before, just eat fucking every like one meal, he

850
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: had four lobster tails or some ship. Yeah, and he

851
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 1: would just fucking then like, the table will be clear,

852
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 1: person shows up, he runs off. They get the bills.

853
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 1: So this person has been arrested and now he's looking

854
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:27,360
Speaker 1: at seven counts of extortion, two counts of attempted extortion,

855
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 1: and one count of grand theft. And like, I think

856
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:31,760
Speaker 1: the bills told up like somewhere near like a thousand

857
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,360
Speaker 1: dollars or something like that, and if he's convicted, he

858
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 1: could face up to thirteen years in prison for that.

859
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,560
Speaker 1: I had a friend who which I keep in mind,

860
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 1: I think Paul Manaford was only looking at whatever out

861
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 1: of just let's all put that into perspective, the charge

862
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:53,879
Speaker 1: of something that's like a decent scale. You just changed

863
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:58,800
Speaker 1: that last name from Gonzalez to Manafort. Roll back. Yeah,

864
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 1: I had a friend who she was like going on

865
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 1: lots of online dates for a while. She's just like

866
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:05,760
Speaker 1: it's so great and like, you know, she's a super feminist,

867
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:07,279
Speaker 1: but she's just like, I haven't paid for a meal

868
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 1: in like a week. She's like, I think I'm gonna

869
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 1: do this for a while. And I was like, okay,

870
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 1: but this is but that was like, you know, the

871
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:15,719
Speaker 1: flipped it on him. Yeah, but like the people she

872
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 1: went on dates with like consented to paying and they

873
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:19,560
Speaker 1: were fine with it. But you just can't be like

874
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 1: even like no, no, no, but yeah, that's what I'm saying.

875
00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 1: But like to sit there for hours before the date

876
00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 1: that's there and then she gets there, that's so wild.

877
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:31,799
Speaker 1: It's kind of genius kind of respect that. I mean,

878
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 1: it's a fucking finas. It's a scam. It's a scam.

879
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 1: Is he cute at least? No? He has a face,

880
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:39,880
Speaker 1: so do you think it's so many people want to

881
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,400
Speaker 1: swipe white on it? Well, he has like those eyes

882
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,919
Speaker 1: that you would be a little bit like this could

883
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 1: be the last thing I see with someone's hands wrapped

884
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:51,799
Speaker 1: around my throat. Oh yeah, but I get it. I mean, look,

885
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:55,279
Speaker 1: he's got that kind of like big eyebrows. We got

886
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,800
Speaker 1: those thick eyelashes, You've got that natural eye. Look you

887
00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 1: know what I mean, blue eyes with real thick dark eyelight,

888
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 1: really got green eyes. I really respect the hustle because

889
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 1: he's just like, you know what, I've already eaten, Like

890
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,120
Speaker 1: he's kind of acting like he hasn't he's not hungry.

891
00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:10,359
Speaker 1: But I can't imagine I went on date with him

892
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:12,359
Speaker 1: and then like he leaves in them saddles like a four,

893
00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:16,560
Speaker 1: like four lobster tail check. I would I would be

894
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:21,080
Speaker 1: pets because also he's not even that cute. Yeah, I

895
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 1: didn't even get scammed by a cute guy. Well that's

896
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,759
Speaker 1: probably because I was wondering why did he do the

897
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:30,239
Speaker 1: eating beforehand, because then like he's putting the risk in

898
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: that they don't show up and he's stuck with the bill.

899
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 1: So he does the eating beforehand because he knows they

900
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:39,040
Speaker 1: might be disappointed when they show up, and so he

901
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:41,799
Speaker 1: needs to get out before they get out, or he

902
00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:43,759
Speaker 1: just feels like or make sure that maybe he does

903
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,319
Speaker 1: a little research, like what's your job? She's like, I'm

904
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:49,719
Speaker 1: a lawyer. He's like, let's meet a mashtros Like I'm

905
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 1: about to go in. The thing was his move would

906
00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 1: be like oh my phone's dying, and he's like and

907
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 1: I got and I'm waiting from a call from my

908
00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 1: mom about my aunt who's really sick. I'm gonna go

909
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:00,759
Speaker 1: to the car to get the charm. You're real quick.

910
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,920
Speaker 1: How did they find him? I don't know. Well, I

911
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:11,399
Speaker 1: mean they have pictures, They have picture so I think there.

912
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:14,080
Speaker 1: I think eventually they probably just like, oh, you live there.

913
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:16,800
Speaker 1: They may be just waited for him and just nabbed

914
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:19,040
Speaker 1: him up. But he also skipped out on a hair

915
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 1: salon bill, so they had a tinder date at a No, no,

916
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:24,960
Speaker 1: no he didn't. He does. He does this ship of

917
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:29,600
Speaker 1: just going in there and sk just fucking sliding on

918
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 1: out of there. Well, respect to you, Paul Gonzalez. If

919
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,600
Speaker 1: only your last name was Mana for it. But yeah, um, honestly,

920
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 1: like they need to have some lower level like the

921
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:41,880
Speaker 1: way that catch me if you can. They took that

922
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,719
Speaker 1: dude who was the real life con artist, and we're like,

923
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:46,919
Speaker 1: we're putting you in charge of the FBI fraud unit

924
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:50,400
Speaker 1: because you're like such a scam gam lord. Like they

925
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:53,960
Speaker 1: should have some lower level version of that where it's

926
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,799
Speaker 1: like this guy has like ingenuity, like they should put

927
00:50:56,840 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 1: him into like some executive and training weird version of

928
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 1: con Air or suicide Squad. But like, whereas because that

929
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 1: takes initiative, there's plenty of people out there just being hungry.

930
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 1: Led by Lacey Mosley, I want to actually want to

931
00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: be staffed on that because I have some ideas. Yeah,

932
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 1: I think it's the same thing where I feel like

933
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:19,839
Speaker 1: sometimes I would be a better detective than detectives are,

934
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:21,479
Speaker 1: Like I know how to read people, like I knew

935
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:23,680
Speaker 1: this person was shady from the jump. I feel like, yeah,

936
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:25,439
Speaker 1: I want to just be on the scams. I feel

937
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,440
Speaker 1: like we have these skills scam Squad. I don't think

938
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:30,400
Speaker 1: I'm a good textive. I think I'm just good at

939
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:33,239
Speaker 1: like thinking of ways to cheat systems because that's yeah, yeah,

940
00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:34,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to expose my parents. But like when I

941
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 1: was a little we used to go shopping and used

942
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 1: to do sam but you remember how back in the day,

943
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 1: like this is a while ago, but like they didn't

944
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 1: really do barcode as much like the registered person would

945
00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:52,719
Speaker 1: like literally type in how much would cost because it

946
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:54,800
Speaker 1: was just like a little sticker of the price. My

947
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:58,240
Speaker 1: mom would like do the sly like stick not because

948
00:51:58,320 --> 00:51:59,960
Speaker 1: she didn't want to pay for but she didn't think

949
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:04,279
Speaker 1: it was worth that much. I like justifications and I

950
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:08,840
Speaker 1: was like yeah, and so I just remember thinking that

951
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:11,759
Speaker 1: being like okay, this is this is okay then, like

952
00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:14,400
Speaker 1: you know, and how didn't do it slightly and like

953
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,399
Speaker 1: get all the residue op or whatever. But we didn't

954
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,400
Speaker 1: do it all the time. It was just like like

955
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: you and also before we're everywhere, what are they gonna

956
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 1: They're not gonna be able to prove that she switched it,

957
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:29,400
Speaker 1: So yeah, just fell off. I just remember like it

958
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:31,239
Speaker 1: wasn't even like she wasn't even saving that much money.

959
00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 1: So I think it's also the high of the scam. Yeah,

960
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 1: or do the ship at the Nike outlet story where

961

966
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:49,279
