Speaker 3: tweety bird with him.
Speaker 2: He hates it.
Speaker 3: No, he's like, yeah, he's like I think he's a
Speaker 3: he's a very powerful man. You know, I don't think
Speaker 3: he's anyone. Yeah, you know, he comes on friendly, but
Speaker 3: he is Jeff Tweety and he's got legions of annoying
Speaker 3: white man who follow him around.
Speaker 1: What if you got what if Jeff Tweety had you disappeared?
Speaker 1: That would be the most embarrassing way to get offt
Speaker 1: just Jeff Tweety off to you.
Speaker 3: I can believe it. He would have like he would
Speaker 3: have one of the guys in Less Savvy fav do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's just say a ghost is born after this
Speaker 1: podcast where you were talking.
Speaker 3: Oh god, because exactly. Yeah. Yeah, and now you've revealed
Speaker 3: Jack that you are one of his followers. I am,
Speaker 3: I am legion.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you quick, quick funny story, quick funny story.
Speaker 3: I was in a coffee shop when Sky Blue Sky
Speaker 3: came off out. I've also been in a coffee shop
Speaker 3: when every album came out, but.
Speaker 1: Where you hang.
Speaker 3: But I like the guy behind the counter was like
Speaker 3: one of these guys who loves will go like thinks
Speaker 3: they're like, you know, I don't know really important for
Speaker 3: some reason. Yeah, and I think they're good. You know,
Speaker 3: I think they're good. Yeah, you know, I like them
Speaker 3: a lot. I mean I've gotten a little bit tired
Speaker 3: of them. But but I mean they put out I
Speaker 3: don't know, one hundred records or something like. Yeah, way
Speaker 3: inside projects. Yes, some side project with a son, you know,
Speaker 3: and it's called tweety. I mean the guy's a megalomaniac.
Speaker 3: But anyway, the uh anyway, he I would love to
Speaker 3: get in a feud with him. It would be so
Speaker 3: good for my social media number. Oh my god, I
Speaker 3: could just get to yell at me once. I would
Speaker 3: get I don't know what I would get with something. Yeah,
Speaker 3: probably four or five more followers on on threads who
Speaker 3: just antagonized you the whole time. Yeah. So that anyway,
Speaker 3: I was in this in this store and and and
Speaker 3: sky Blues guy was like a disappointment. And that's this
Speaker 3: guy was like, he just said to me, the guy
Speaker 3: behind the counter. I was like, oh, what do you
Speaker 3: think of this new Wilco record or whatever. I don't
Speaker 3: even know what I was talking. I just talked to
Speaker 3: baristas because I'm lonely. I was like, oh, and he
Speaker 3: said he said, it's it's it's disappointing when you when
Speaker 3: you really when you know what they are capable of,
Speaker 3: which I thought that was really funny to me, like
Speaker 3: really that.
Speaker 1: My parents would have said to me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was just a really weird like and I
Speaker 3: knew what he meant, because like there's a certain class
Speaker 3: of like music fan that likes like when will Cope
Speaker 3: put a lot of computer noises in their songs, like
Speaker 3: they were like, now we're getting somewhere, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean? And then like Skyblos Guy was sort of
Speaker 3: just like regular rock and roll without as much beeping
Speaker 3: or like they're like, yeah, we know that they're capable
Speaker 3: of war. And I'm like, you mean more computer noises.
Speaker 1: More beeping?
Speaker 3: Yeah, like you mean like dusty computer. You mean like
Speaker 3: you think music's advanced if it uses machines. And I
Speaker 3: didn't get into it with him because I just wanted to,
Speaker 3: you know, I didn't want to have a fight.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, cold War kids don't use the machines.
Speaker 2: They just it's just all talent and vocals. You know
Speaker 2: nothing about music. I've noticed that the Cold War kid
Speaker 2: that's my most current reference. Also the Cold War kids,
Speaker 2: the recorder. Yeah, that's right, they never did that ship.
Speaker 1: But anyway, book, this podcast is coldbrew got me like,
Speaker 1: this book is the Advice King Anthology. Uh. He's the
Speaker 1: only person who will go off on a ten minute
Speaker 1: sidebar during his introduction. It's Chris motherfucking crafted.

Speaker 2: Actually I wrote all those you did.
Speaker 1: I told you, I told you guys. Just he has
Speaker 1: a seven point four on pitch for it. H Chris,
Speaker 1: how how are you doing?

Speaker 3: You know, I'm just had my birthday yesterday.
Speaker 2: Hey, Chris crofton to you.
Speaker 3: Thanks turned fifty five, which is like, you know, not
Speaker 3: a birthday you just necessarily out loud. Yeah, you don't
Speaker 3: want to say out loud. There's not like a lot
Speaker 3: of people are going to be like there's a lot
Speaker 3: of people just went you know, but whatever, you know,
Speaker 3: I got to like, I'm an oversharer. I'm not going
Speaker 3: to start lying about my age. I like to tell
Speaker 3: people the real deal. Yeah, like grunge style. I was
Speaker 3: raised by Eddie Vedder, and Eddie Vedder tells the truth.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's no point right there, justin we can
Speaker 1: come back in a year, man, Eddie tell the truth.
Speaker 3: If he doesn't anymore, he doesn't anymore though he has
Speaker 3: a facelift. He has a facelift, Eddie. Did he get
Speaker 3: a facelift? Yeah? Man, come on, I mean it's well done.
Speaker 1: But he's still he got one, you know, oh really.
Speaker 2: Yeah he got I mean I mean, well the best
Speaker 2: one I've ever seen.
Speaker 1: Does he have those like otherworldly eyes that like Wolf
Speaker 1: Blitzer's face lift was just like, all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: his eyes looked like he was like from David Lynch's
Speaker 1: Dune or something like. His eyes just like had these weird,
Speaker 1: like shadowy blue like features to them.
Speaker 3: I think Eddie looks like he just looks like what
Speaker 3: he is, which is like a guy who gave up
Speaker 3: on the whole, you know. I mean he kind of
Speaker 3: gave up on the grunge thing, you know, fighting Ticketmaster
Speaker 3: and stuff like all that stuff like that.
Speaker 1: I was, you know, like, I was like, that's what
Speaker 1: you were here for.
Speaker 2: I like that guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like the guy was all mad. Now he's
Speaker 3: like mister you know, he's just like mister Chicago Cubs
Speaker 3: or whatever his.
Speaker 2: Pro junk feet.
Speaker 3: When I saw it, when I saw he made a
Speaker 3: big speech. I saw him in LA before I moved,
Speaker 3: and he in twenty twenty two and he made a
Speaker 3: speech about how he didn't think that the allegations against
Speaker 3: Bill Murray were true because he's hung out with Bill
Speaker 3: Murray and Bill Murray's rules. He was super nice, and
Speaker 3: I was like, he went on a long thing about that,
Speaker 3: and I was like, man, Eddie, you need to drink
Speaker 3: glass wine on stage, you dumb man.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean you just turned into everything.
Speaker 1: Guy who I've met, you used to.
Speaker 3: Rail against people like what you're Yeah, I mean just
Speaker 3: it was like, dude, you fucking you did it and
Speaker 3: you fucking got too famous in all right. Yeah, So anyway,
Speaker 3: Eddie Vedder would say he was the old Eddie Vedder
Speaker 3: that I used to like. What a set he was
Speaker 3: fifty five. And I'll tell you one thing on a blog,
Speaker 3: on a blog or on some fucking one time. It
Speaker 3: went on that reddit they have for a daily zeitgeist.
Speaker 3: That the subreddit mistake, right, I know, I know, but
Speaker 3: I wanted more. I wanted more praise. I was looking
Speaker 3: for more praise now. I couldn't get enough on the regular,
Speaker 3: on the underneath, the underneath Instagram was enough, propt did
Speaker 3: a good job. All this Craft is number one fever
Speaker 3: or whatever. I said, Yeah, and then I went on
Speaker 3: Reddit and crafted one guy is always put I always
Speaker 3: put that under Sweeping the globe and Instagram, Instagram, it's always.
Speaker 2: There's a past.
Speaker 1: Jack Craft truly couldn't possibly anyway.
Speaker 3: So I went on got damn the subreddit, and the
Speaker 3: subreddit said, uh that they said that it was sad
Speaker 3: that I was fifty three, So I can only imagine
Speaker 3: like this guy was like, I think it's kind of
Speaker 3: sad that he is doing this at age fifty three.
Speaker 3: And then and then someone else said, what's he supposed
Speaker 3: to be doing? I know he's like, what else is
Speaker 3: he supposed to be doing? And then the guy was like,
Speaker 3: I don't know, you know, but I know what he thought,
Speaker 3: because he thinks fifty three year olds have a yacht
Speaker 3: or yeah, you're supposed to have a yacht or some ship,
Speaker 3: and he.
Speaker 1: Should be hanging out of his golf club. Yeah, country
Speaker 1: club and anothers.
Speaker 2: Do that too, But you don't just podcast. You do
Speaker 2: also hang out at your golf club as well.
Speaker 3: Who can you.
Speaker 1: Pull your yacht up to your golf course?
Speaker 3: And yeah, I run, I run a Yeah I run.
Speaker 3: I run a whole network of gambling sites. I do
Speaker 3: a lot of things.
Speaker 2: You do a lot of interest. I would argue that
Speaker 2: wins might be the best thing to drink as a performer,
Speaker 2: like at a rock show where because liquor that will
Speaker 2: take hold of you too quickly, beer will bloat you
Speaker 2: and you'll like burn during your performance. Where wine I
Speaker 2: think might actually be the smoothest thing that you can
Speaker 2: if you're gonna do it.
Speaker 1: Maybe it would have been better if Eddie Vedder had
Speaker 1: been bloated during his speech about how his fellow celebrity
Speaker 1: was cool to him and so therefore it can't be
Speaker 1: a predator.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Also a speech that he didn't even make a
Speaker 2: comment in passing.
Speaker 3: It was rough. It was rough stuff. And he also said,
Speaker 3: like he called a woman a bitch, like he was like,
Speaker 3: he's like he was wearing sparkle jacket and some other
Speaker 3: someone in the audience was wearing a sparkly jacket, like
Speaker 3: he was wearing a sequin jacket, and he said, like,
Speaker 3: don't steal my thunder, bitch. And then he felt so
Speaker 3: bad about it because his old like activist self like
Speaker 3: was he wasn't drunk enough to forget that. So he
Speaker 3: started saying like women needed to equal pay and stuff
Speaker 3: right after that, and it was like, man, you are
Speaker 3: a fucking.
Speaker 2: Mess equal to buy different jackets than me.
Speaker 1: He was just so embarrassed.
Speaker 3: He was so embarrassed he said bitch when I mean
Speaker 3: no one really he was. And then he went on
Speaker 3: and he's immediately said like women's pay was going up
Speaker 3: or something, and it was like, my god, you are
Speaker 3: too drunk, buddy.
Speaker 1: You know you've you've alienated the tweety mafia and now
Speaker 1: the veterans.
Speaker 2: And you've alienated you should take all that out.
Speaker 1: Sorry about that, bitches and sparkly jackets. You can take
Speaker 1: that out coming for your ass.
Speaker 3: But I'm fifty five. I don't know what that means.
Speaker 3: I'm fifty five, so I get to get you to
Speaker 3: fifth the movies or something for half bridan. I don't
Speaker 3: know what happened something. It's the new forty seven. Yeah,
Speaker 3: fifty five is the new forty seven. So you're your
Speaker 3: your threats?
Speaker 1: Is that where we're at now? In the Yeah?
Speaker 3: I mean, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: No one can stop me, no one.
Speaker 1: It's always it's always very convincing when there's a pause
Speaker 1: in between stops.
Speaker 3: No one can stop me. I'm on hinge, right, bab
Speaker 3: I'm on hinge.
Speaker 1: Me. Yes, he's on hinge. I'm gonna add that to
Speaker 1: your intro. Actually, next time, all right, Chris, we're gonna
Speaker 1: get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
Speaker 1: we're gonna tell our listeners some of the stories we.
Speaker 2: Have no concept of who you are.
Speaker 1: We're gonna tell our listeners some of the stories we
Speaker 1: would have gotten to if we had different people in
Speaker 1: our second and third seats, So we would have talked
Speaker 1: about a guy. This one I think we might get
Speaker 1: to because I think Chris, you might be interested in
Speaker 1: this one. This is a story about a guy who
Speaker 1: created an underground eel pit in his basement that one
Speaker 1: of our listeners, Amber at girl who nerds on Twitter,
Speaker 1: shared with us. He has, like you know how basements
Speaker 1: will sometimes have like a manhole cover type thing that's like, oh,
Speaker 1: there's a sump pump or something under there, a rain cistern. Well,
Speaker 1: he had a rainwater cistern under there and converted it
Speaker 1: into a large fish tank for American.
Speaker 2: Eels, not not these, not these foreign eels, wide and
Speaker 2: blue eels.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were caught in Maine. He specifically says, we
Speaker 1: have some good news about Paris changing their culture around
Speaker 1: cars to being a bike city, So we'll talk about that,
Speaker 1: maybe some conversations about rich people getting second passports, something
Speaker 1: about the new Civil War movie an Ai Pin that
Speaker 1: is here to solve none of your problems. All of that,
Speaker 1: not really none of that probably maybe a couple of
Speaker 1: times we'll see, but before we don't get to that stuff, Chris,
Speaker 1: we do like to ask our guest, what is something
Speaker 1: from your search history?
Speaker 3: I got a pretty good one this time. Okay, if
Speaker 3: you've been listening to my podcast, colebrew got me like,
Speaker 3: you probably have heard me talk about this. In fact,
Speaker 3: you definitely have, but I have to bring it up
Speaker 3: just in case you guys familiar with the human zee.
Speaker 1: The human zee. This is like a missing link.
Speaker 3: Type humans the human chimpanzee hybrid, which there is I
Speaker 3: don't think there is one, right, but like cryptozoology, But
Speaker 3: in the nineteen seventies, like these, this group of people,
Speaker 3: like not very many became convinced that this one chimp
Speaker 3: was a half man half chimp because he walked around
Speaker 3: and he didn't walk on all fours like a chimp.
Speaker 3: And he also had like a kind of look like
Speaker 3: a person, kind of looked like me and like me,
Speaker 3: like I don't know, pale, like yeah, maybe pale, I
Speaker 3: was thinking pale. And his face was like hairless, like
Speaker 3: where a shimp's face is hairy, so like he could
Speaker 3: see more of his face, which anyway, he's like Basically,
Speaker 3: these people just decided that he was half human because
Speaker 3: he looked like kind of like half human and because
Speaker 3: he he walked on his let on his hind legs,
Speaker 3: which he was brought up. He was in a New
Speaker 3: Jersey being raised by people who trained chimps for you know,
Speaker 3: to fire cap guns and roller skate and stuff like that.
Speaker 3: You know, like a chimpanzee training camp for like movies
Speaker 3: or TV shows or whatever. And it's always like two
Speaker 3: nutballs who just like you know, who just are nuts,
Speaker 3: you know, have these chimpanzees running around their yard and
Speaker 3: they teach him how to smile and stuff by you know,
Speaker 3: god knows what technique and uh yeah whatever, putting like
Speaker 3: a pose pin on their nuts or whatever and and
Speaker 3: or whatever.
Speaker 1: Or whatever.
Speaker 3: But whatever, it's an unpleasant business, I'm sure. And anyway,
Speaker 3: this this family had these chimps and then they had
Speaker 3: this one named Oliver, and he was like they were like,
Speaker 3: he's half human because he walks in a way that
Speaker 3: we can't teach apes, or we can't teach our chimps
Speaker 3: to walk. We can teach him to walk a little bit,
Speaker 3: but we have to, like, you know whatever, make sure
Speaker 3: they're doing it or whatever, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: We have to like make them be look to be
Speaker 3: next to them, like, you know, with the stick or whatever.
Speaker 3: And I don't know if it's with the stick, you know,
Speaker 3: but not to hit him. Maybe not to hit them,
Speaker 3: but just like to you know, put them under the
Speaker 3: chin and remind him that they need to be walking
Speaker 3: or whatever. Yeah. Whatever happens to chimps when they're in
Speaker 3: New Jersey instead of the fucking jungle. So so, so anyway,
Speaker 3: there's suburban in there's suburban and there in suburban New
Speaker 3: Jerseys sitting and like a lazy boy instead of in
Speaker 3: the jungle where they're supposed to be. So this family
Speaker 3: decides and then somehow this lawyer gets wind of this
Speaker 3: chimp that's supposed to be half human. And I don't
Speaker 3: know how in the world there's like some grapevine in
Speaker 3: nineteen seventy seven where people just like word of mouth
Speaker 3: are talking about this half human anyway, this.
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, you know what it was is this the
Speaker 2: zoologist was probably screaming at the top of his lungs.
Speaker 2: Can we please stop these rumors about him being half human?
Speaker 2: I'm the only one with access to his mother. Can
Speaker 2: we your ruining by family.
Speaker 3: Well there's a freaking yes, there's this.
Speaker 1: This guy definitely fucked a chimp, sucked.
Speaker 2: He sucked it.
Speaker 3: So this documentary is just unbelievable. You gotta maybe I
Speaker 3: can link it or send it to Justin or something.
Speaker 3: It is like, uh, these guys, it's the whole documentary
Speaker 3: is just based on these people who think this thing's that.
Speaker 3: They're like, even after all of the stuff where it's like,
Speaker 3: this thing's there's no proof this thing's anything but a
Speaker 3: chimp with like no hair on his face because of
Speaker 3: some you know, well he's got mange or not mange,
Speaker 3: but like some kind of genetic things born with no
Speaker 3: hair on his face. Just because of things born with
Speaker 3: no hair on his face doesn't mean it's half. But
Speaker 3: they're like, this is definitely a half human half this
Speaker 3: is definitely human z. But nobody offered any proof, but
Speaker 3: they were still like, I still think he is. Like
Speaker 3: there was just like three people trainers. The trainers thought
Speaker 3: he was a half human. This piano player guy, this
Speaker 3: pianist who tried to buy him, but he got out
Speaker 3: bid by a lawyer, and the lawyer took him to Japan,
Speaker 3: where the thing was like, you know, he went on
Speaker 3: TV and more like athletic shorts and ruled an exercise
Speaker 3: bike and like you know, and this guy was like,
Speaker 3: it was supposed to be researched. Those Japanese fucked me.
Speaker 3: I was supposed to get we were supposed to do
Speaker 3: serious research. And they had them on TV.
Speaker 1: You know you like rip anyone's fingers or faces human
Speaker 1: z And.
Speaker 3: They have this British narrator. I don't know what showed
Speaker 3: that this was on the sid it's a do you
Speaker 3: know sci Channels had the Sci Fi Channel.
Speaker 1: Maybe s C I no, I think Sci Fi Channel
Speaker 1: changed its spelling to s Y s Y for some reason.
Speaker 3: Okay, list from like two thousand and two. This documentary anyway,
Speaker 3: it's absolutely wonderful. And then and they really go into
Speaker 3: the main reason this this chimp had to be taken
Speaker 3: out of the out of the training facility which is
Speaker 3: really you know, a ranch house, you know, and had
Speaker 3: to stop drinking wine. He's and also he's a human
Speaker 3: because look he drinks a lot. He drinks a lot
Speaker 3: of liquor. It's like yeah, Murray, yeah, Bill maher. Anyway,
Speaker 3: and then there's one guy says like that he thinks
Speaker 3: that he heard that his uncle worked at a lab
Speaker 3: in the twenties where they definitely produced a human humanity,
Speaker 3: And you're like, that's the same story everybody says about it,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. He's like, in the twenties,
Speaker 3: my uncle worked at this lab in Pensacola where they
Speaker 3: it definitely happened, they made one and they had to
Speaker 3: euthanize it, you know. And it's like you could substitute
Speaker 3: just Richard Gere in The fucking Hamster for any part
Speaker 3: of that story. Whatever. You gotta find this documentary. It's
Speaker 3: really good. It's really good.
Speaker 1: There's a new art film starring Jesse Eisenberg called Sasquatch
Speaker 1: Sunset that it just like follows a family of sasquatch around,
Speaker 1: like Jesse Eisenberg I believe is playing one of them.
Speaker 2: Nobody's just.
Speaker 1: That's right. It's Jesse Eisenberg and his original you know,
Speaker 1: without the makeup that makes him look less like a humanity. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's a I don't know, Like I remember watching that
Speaker 1: Werner Herzog movie about the like Cave art like from
Speaker 1: that's like some of the earliest culture that we have
Speaker 1: of like prehistoric humans, and like one of the first
Speaker 1: things that we ever drew was like half animal half human,
Speaker 1: like I think it was a cat person. And I
Speaker 1: think there's just a like fascination that's like built into
Speaker 1: us that we just like want these creatures that are
Speaker 1: like half human half animal like that that's just there
Speaker 1: and what we will keep making it happen one way
Speaker 1: or another. In our case, I think it's the like
Speaker 1: we're our version of culture is more interested in like
Speaker 1: half human half ape, and that's why we have the
Speaker 1: obsession with like bigfoot and sasquatch and HUMANSI but you know,
Speaker 1: past cultures have given us like were wolves or like
Speaker 1: cat people.
Speaker 2: Was that the documentary where the cave art kills the
Speaker 2: subject of the documentary at the end, was that then
Speaker 2: eats it? Or is that a different that's a different one.
Speaker 2: That's a different one. Yeah, okay, so yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I think I think you're thinking of a horror film.
Speaker 2: Oh no, grizzly man. I was thinking grizzly men. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I apologize.
Speaker 1: Yes, of the Dakota grizzly man.
Speaker 2: Correct.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you said grizzly man. That's interesting.
Speaker 1: That's his family name.
Speaker 2: We should have like Cox it's my given name.
Speaker 3: You ever heard of Cosman? Yeah, they used to say
Speaker 3: in the seventies, like they called like men like who
Speaker 3: were like they called themself. I don't need to talk about.
Speaker 2: What's the one who drives the boat and crew? Is
Speaker 2: that a Coxswain or is that a Coxswain? Con Imagine
Speaker 2: the jokes.
Speaker 3: Imagine the jokes.
Speaker 2: That's why I had to quit crew. I couldn't handle it.
Speaker 2: I was laughing too hard to imagine being the Coxswayne.
Speaker 3: Imagine how many jokes.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, they did do them the good deed of
Speaker 1: making it co x s w A I N and
Speaker 1: so that people like, no, it's not even that it's
Speaker 1: cos right, and then laugh laugh.
Speaker 3: So anyway, check out this. Check out this humansy documentary.
Speaker 3: It's a British guy doing the narration and he says
Speaker 3: humans so many times is so great and it's so great,
Speaker 3: and he just keeps saying that all anyone thinks about
Speaker 3: is human z's and like he's like how scientists are
Speaker 3: constantly thinking about humans's and I don't think that that's true.
Speaker 3: And uh, you know, he just like made this this
Speaker 3: thing like it seemed like that's all on the front
Speaker 3: burner of human You know, all anyone thinks about is
Speaker 3: humansis and uh, you know, I just I never even
Speaker 3: heard of humans.
Speaker 1: I think they're really is a type of person who
Speaker 1: is just born, built in obsessed with human z's and
Speaker 1: like half human half I mean, like, I mean, we
Speaker 1: have ferries, we have people who like identify that way.
Speaker 1: So it's not breaking news. But I just feel like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's something that's just there. It's not unique to our
Speaker 1: like weird time or whatever. We've just always had that.
Speaker 3: I feel like, well, I've thought about like, yeah, I've
Speaker 3: thought about bigfoot plenty, but I don't think about I've
Speaker 3: never thought about humanzi's at all until I saw this documentary.
Speaker 2: And uh now you can't stop thinking about it.
Speaker 3: Anyway, it's like just the one. I think the two
Speaker 3: are related. I never thought about that. No, I never
Speaker 3: considered a big question. I never thought that a bigfoot
Speaker 3: was a was a like the son of a person
Speaker 3: who had sex with a chimpanzee. Oh okay, But anyway,
Speaker 3: I think it's funny when the middle class in the seventies,
Speaker 3: there was a middle class, so people are thinking about
Speaker 3: all these kind of things that are fun to think about.
Speaker 1: One time they got too close to the truth and
Speaker 1: that's why they destroyed the middle class in the eighties.
Speaker 3: Oh, maybe that's what it is. I was just thinking about, like,
Speaker 3: you know, these people could afford, like, you know, to
Speaker 3: bottle feed chimps and stuff like in their ranch house.
Speaker 3: Probably both of them were like driver's head teachers or something,
Speaker 3: you know, they like somehow had enough of an economy
Speaker 3: going that they could run to Chimp Preserve. No one's
Speaker 3: got any money.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've retired at fifty five. I just uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I've been a driver's that teacher for forty years and
Speaker 1: uh it was a good money.
Speaker 3: How is you buy your house?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 3: I'm a driver's ed instructor.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's a good gig.
Speaker 3: What are you gonna do with your extra money? I
Speaker 3: think about I started Chimp Preserve's.
Speaker 1: Chimps out of smile and smokes the gar Yeah, oh
Speaker 1: you got a house down the shore.
Speaker 3: Yeah. What year is this? Nineteen seventy six?
Speaker 2: Yes, And I hate this question, but why do you
Speaker 2: have so many bottles of milk in the back of
Speaker 2: your car? What is what?
Speaker 3: What is that?
Speaker 1: Oh? I'm so glad you.
Speaker 3: Asked heard Have I heard of one. It's all I
Speaker 3: think about a funny.
Speaker 2: The guy too, is the guy who's like, yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: like all these half men, half beasts, like the lockless
Speaker 2: blockness monsters. Someone truly, you know, tried to fuck a lizard.
Speaker 2: And then you know teodactyls. Someone tried to fuck a
Speaker 2: lizard and wait, do you want to a lizard?
Speaker 1: Yeah, dinosaurs are obviously someone fucked a lizard. That's why
Speaker 1: I'm standing up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder who fucked a whale and made the
Speaker 3: lock ness monster.
Speaker 1: Yeah, forcing it in there. I never thought about that
Speaker 1: at all.
Speaker 3: Fifty five is already a good year. That's right, baby,
Speaker 3: I'm thinking about new things. This is this is the direction.
Speaker 3: Things are heavy.
Speaker 2: He truly is.
Speaker 3: I'm thinking about new nonprofit things.
Speaker 1: Let's take a quick break and we'll come back and
Speaker 1: talk about your underrated over it. We'll be read back
Speaker 1: and we're back, and Chris Crofton, we do like to
Speaker 1: ask our guests, and particularly you, especially you, what is
Speaker 1: something you think is underrated?
Speaker 3: I was thinking alcohol or no overrated? Was alcohol? And
Speaker 3: airplanes so underrated? Was underrated? Was how much Nashville sucks?
Speaker 3: See what I did? Yes, how much Nashville sucks because
Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys have been paying attention,
Speaker 3: but the whole world has at this point been paying
Speaker 3: attention to what's happening in Tennessee. And I'm just wondering
Speaker 3: at what point the Justice Department intervenes in a state
Speaker 3: that is violating civil rights or whether that's something that
Speaker 3: at this point would be considered, Oh, we don't want
Speaker 3: to get Republicans mad, you know what I mean, Like, Oh,
Speaker 3: this is no time to make the Republicans mad, which
Speaker 3: is like the whole I guess the whole future is
Speaker 3: gonna be that we can't do anything ever because it's
Speaker 3: gonna make somebody upset and then they'll be worse than
Speaker 3: they were already, which is the whole idea of you know,
Speaker 3: I don't know, we'll just like do some barbaric shit
Speaker 3: at the border, so like, you know, instead of like
Speaker 3: taking a stand against Republican policy, we're gonna, you know,
Speaker 3: this this weird thing where we have to like appease
Speaker 3: fascists as some way forward to get Democrats elected. But anyway,
Speaker 3: I just think what's happening in Tennessee is so disheartening
Speaker 3: that I want to move and I want to move
Speaker 3: in the sense that everybody's gonna want to move out
Speaker 3: of states like this. And I'm not kidding, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean. I'm not kidding. I'm considering like this
Speaker 3: is like Luxembourg, and like I don't know, I don't
Speaker 3: know anything about what lu luxembourgs like.
Speaker 2: Case of Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
Speaker 3: You know who knows the familiar I'm not really familiar
Speaker 3: with South America, So Luxembourg.
Speaker 2: There is an article in cs CNBC Yesimiami dot Net,
Speaker 2: Yes I might where I get all my news.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just as you finished an article. It plays the
Speaker 1: bo theme, but it's all about people being like how
Speaker 1: the uber wealthy are investing in second passports to get
Speaker 1: like to prepare themselves to flee the country. But they like,
Speaker 1: first of all, it's not it's not in a thing
Speaker 1: in an article that's like outraged about this. This is
Speaker 1: in an article called CNBC's Inside Wealth newsletter, where they.
Speaker 2: I subscribe to that, so let me actually just it up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they follow like the behavior of rich people the
Speaker 1: way like gossip blogs report on Arian and Grande like
Speaker 1: they're just like, oh what Peter TiAl do, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: how's he spending his money.
Speaker 3: He bought a pool table that walks.
Speaker 1: And is humiliated when you play pool on it, which
Speaker 1: is part of the fun for him. But yeah, basically
Speaker 1: the luber wealthier collecting second citizenships, and that's you need
Speaker 1: to be either extremely wealthy to afford it, or you
Speaker 1: need to like have relatives who have dual citizenship or something,
Speaker 1: otherwise you're kind of fucked.
Speaker 2: There's like a bunch of countries that make it easier
Speaker 2: than other Like I think Portugal makes it fairly easy,
Speaker 2: but it and by fairly easy, it's relative of in
Speaker 2: order to get us citizenship, it's probably the most difficult
Speaker 2: thing anyone could do in the history of the world.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I have so us. Sorry, but when I
Speaker 2: say that us at the wealthy, we have been doing
Speaker 2: that where it is a thing. We also obviously have
Speaker 2: disposable income to take a the flights to own second
Speaker 2: properties in other countries too. You know, we've been doing that.
Speaker 2: You all have just heard about it recently, but we've
Speaker 2: actually been planning this for quite some time.
Speaker 1: You're Yeah, if you had been paying attention to our
Speaker 1: newsletter about all the cool shit we get up to.
Speaker 2: For my Instagram account.
Speaker 1: It's not just it's not just a second passport. You need.
Speaker 1: What what the wealthy are calling passport portfolios collections of
Speaker 1: second and even third or fourth citizenships. And they specifically say,
Speaker 1: like a relatively small number of Americans do renounce their citizenship.
Speaker 1: So if you're not going to like pay a bunch
Speaker 1: of money and like own a house in a foreign country,
Speaker 1: you need to basically renounce your US citizenship, which most
Speaker 1: people don't want to do. So they're just like doing
Speaker 1: second second citizenships. So Luxembourg here we come, right.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, like Luxembourg, Like I mean, I just mean,
Speaker 3: like yeah, like if Luxembourg was nash was Tennessee and say,
Speaker 3: I don't know, fucking some other country.
Speaker 2: To be really difficult what you're trying to do right now,
Speaker 2: Just I've been in your position before. You just signed
Speaker 2: yourself up for a very very difficult analogy.
Speaker 3: Anyway, I'm not gonna do it. I'm not gonna finish it.
Speaker 3: But let's say you move. It doesn't even need I
Speaker 3: don't even need to say that. All I'm saying is
Speaker 3: I want to move to California because of people are
Speaker 3: in a better mood there. People are in a horrible
Speaker 3: mood in Tennessee, or and this is the thing, or
Speaker 3: they are trying to pretend everything's fine, which is what
Speaker 3: makes it even worse. Right, there's a divide happening between
Speaker 3: liberals with property and liberals without property. Liberals with property
Speaker 3: in Nashville are having the time of their lives on
Speaker 3: one hand, because their property values have tripled in ten years,
Speaker 3: so they all are rich on paper, but they can't
Speaker 3: sell their houses. They can just like leverage it into
Speaker 3: loans and things, but they can't actually move, so they
Speaker 3: have to stay here because if they sell their house here,
Speaker 3: prices in Nashville are going up so high that they
Speaker 3: will immediately be priced out. Like if they sell their
Speaker 3: house safe for nine hundred thousand dollars that they bought
Speaker 3: for two hundred thousand dollars ten years ago, they will
Speaker 3: then like they can't just go ahead by another house,
Speaker 3: like you will not get a house, so you'll have
Speaker 3: to leave Nashville. So they're not gonna leave because a
Speaker 3: lot of them have kids and stuff, and I understand
Speaker 3: that they're stuck here, but that means that they will
Speaker 3: be unrealistically optimistic about what's going on because they just
Speaker 3: have to be because they have kids and stuff. But
Speaker 3: it's not it's insane to watch what Tennessee is doing
Speaker 3: is not light. They are overtly doing very racist stuff,
Speaker 3: like basically racism, like gabbling black people out of their
Speaker 3: rights to speak in the legislature on a regular basis,
Speaker 3: like in laughing in their faces white guys just pounding
Speaker 3: gabbles and not letting procedures go on that are supposed
Speaker 3: to go on for black legislators and they're just doing
Speaker 3: that and laughing and like, and they're also they just
Speaker 3: what is it TSU historically black university here? They the state,
Speaker 3: the state of Tennessee withheld turns out they stole billions
Speaker 3: of dollars that was supposed to go to that university
Speaker 3: and they just took it over. They just they just
Speaker 3: installed a white like they since they installed the new board,
Speaker 3: they took over the college. Like the overt the the
Speaker 3: things that are going on here are not normal. They're
Speaker 3: not normal at all. And I think there is this
Speaker 3: will for people to stay in this is normal. This
Speaker 3: is normal, This is normal because you just don't want
Speaker 3: it to not be normal. But at a certain point,
Speaker 3: when you run away, you're actually smart you know, and
Speaker 3: I'm just saying that that is how it feels in
Speaker 3: Tennessee right now. For me as a person, doesn't have
Speaker 3: any reason to be like sugarcoating it because I don't
Speaker 3: have any I don't have to stay. I don't have
Speaker 3: any family, my family here, but they're my family, you know,
Speaker 3: they're just my regular family. Don't care about them. So yeah,
Speaker 3: they whatever. Every man for himself. That's how my dad
Speaker 3: taught me. That's how my dad taught me. As I've
Speaker 3: many said many times, I.
Speaker 1: Thought you were referring to the fact that the Tennessee
Speaker 1: Senate just approved a measure allowing teachers to carry concealed guns.
Speaker 2: It is that true. That's true, and also that's true.
Speaker 1: And also that's true.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I mean also they like, yeah, I made
Speaker 3: the point today, like they're always talking about how teachers
Speaker 3: are pedophiles, but they also want to arm them.
Speaker 2: It's kind of confusing, right well, it is easier to
Speaker 2: say arm the teachers than arm the pedophiles like that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, certainly, So anyway, I think they should just skip.
Speaker 3: Why don't they just arm the kids. I mean, if
Speaker 3: that's the really the idea, you know, the guns make
Speaker 3: us safer. I mean, why why keep you know, why
Speaker 3: keep incrementally? Yeah, anyway, I just think that's that's it.
Speaker 3: It's just hard to get behind this like sort of
Speaker 3: we're we're like doing progressive, progressive policies in Nashville in
Speaker 3: this smaller and smaller area, and it's like to me,
Speaker 3: it's just like and everyone's just sort of being food
Speaker 3: ease and all these things that they want to do.
Speaker 3: And they also want to get famous. Everyone here wants
Speaker 3: to get famous. Everybody in America thinks they're entitled to
Speaker 3: get famous, and they will not let it be interrupted.
Speaker 3: I don't want to hear about bad news. I'm trying
Speaker 3: to become a famous person. And we have a disease.
Speaker 3: And it's not just America. The whole world is a
Speaker 3: disease because the Instagram America though, but it is. You know,
Speaker 3: it's like, no one's going to interrupt my my you know,
Speaker 3: I'm going to be the next Willie Nelson and no
Speaker 3: one's gonna stop.
Speaker 1: I don't care what beasts beast, mister beast, he's mister beast.
Speaker 2: Economy, He's he's his own economy.
Speaker 1: Who is He's a famous influencer on social media that
Speaker 1: Uh all I all I know is I keep getting
Speaker 1: these Twitter ads for him where he's like I locked
Speaker 1: one hundred people in a haunted grocery store like saw
Speaker 1: saw how long they could survive for? And yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, all right you.
Speaker 3: Does he have a newsletter? I'm sure sign up for
Speaker 3: his newsletter.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So anyway, I just think that there's like I'm not
Speaker 3: feeling like uh and I'm sure this is happening to
Speaker 3: a lot of people, is that they're dealing with people
Speaker 3: who are having varying degrees of a good time because
Speaker 3: of if if if they own property, they're they're getting rich.
Speaker 3: And if you're a non if you're a renter like me,
Speaker 3: you are absolutely miserable. So there's just a divide and
Speaker 3: these are people that used to be on my side.
Speaker 3: And then it gets sort of into this sort of like, well,
Speaker 3: maybe you should have bought you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: It becomes like there's two kinds of liberals. Maybe yes,
Speaker 3: your fucking fault. I mean, it really comes down to
Speaker 3: because they don't want.
Speaker 1: To maybe you should have been a driver's ed teacher.
Speaker 3: They don't want to hear it, you know, at a
Speaker 3: certain point, they don't and they'll just it's getting you know.
Speaker 3: I just feel like at one point one of my
Speaker 3: friends is gonna be like, you just should have made
Speaker 3: more money, man, you know, like it's not really anybody
Speaker 3: else's fault except yours, and that's frightening. Yeah. So I'm
Speaker 3: just frightened that the bootstrapping is going to be the
Speaker 3: next thing that's coming out of liberals mouths. Basically oh yeah,
Speaker 3: and underrated or overrated. I was going to say, is
Speaker 3: alcohol on airplanes, just because I think it's funny that
Speaker 3: they keep selling this thing that makes them have to
Speaker 3: duct tape half the passengers to their seats. I mean,
Speaker 3: I really find that unbelievable.
Speaker 1: It's crazy. I will say, all right, this seems like
Speaker 1: you're slightly uh you know, subtweeting Blake here.
Speaker 3: Why you love to drink on the airplanes?
Speaker 1: He's been he's been duct taped to the last three planes.
Speaker 2: But I do it myself. I ductate myself before I
Speaker 2: ordered the drink style. Yeah, yeah, right, exactly.
Speaker 3: That's a good idea, Thank you. That's a good idea
Speaker 3: you yourself, if you know you're gonna go responsibly, Like
Speaker 3: at the end of those ads for alcohol, where they're like,
Speaker 3: drink some responsibly.
Speaker 1: If they just had somebody duct taping themselves to a
Speaker 1: radiator the first.
Speaker 2: Drink, disassembling their gun and putting in different rooms that
Speaker 2: they're different.
Speaker 1: That's what I would have taken for me at the end,
Speaker 1: to drink responsibly, to chain myself to a radiator.
Speaker 2: And I'm so stupid. I almost conjugated the words safe
Speaker 2: to saves because in my mind, I'm like, wait, it's
Speaker 2: the quarrel of safs saves.
Speaker 3: Am I.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't want to sound like a moron.
Speaker 1: But if you're robbing a bank and you were like
Speaker 1: it is, take me to all of your saves and
Speaker 1: they're like, wait what Yeah, well hold on, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, asshole?
Speaker 2: Yeah, stop stop correcting me in my own home. Are
Speaker 2: you gonna home and bade me? Are you gonna home
Speaker 2: and bade me? I will, Actually I will agree with you,
Speaker 2: Chris that drinking on a plane can be overrated because
Speaker 2: for two reasons, one serious and one kind of this
Speaker 2: is this is why, this is, this is why my platform.
Speaker 3: I like it.
Speaker 2: I like it. You get more dehydrated on planes because
Speaker 2: of the altitude. So if you're drinking alcohol. It does
Speaker 2: hit you and make you your hangover will be worse
Speaker 2: the next day if you're drinking heavily on a plane.
Speaker 2: And then Also one of my favorite stories is that
Speaker 2: I had a friend who uh had was flying across
Speaker 2: the country, got hammered on a plane and forgot that
Speaker 2: he had driven to the airport. So when he got
Speaker 2: off the plane, he was like, oh God, damn it.
Speaker 2: I had to take an uber hobe and then he
Speaker 2: had to uber back the next day to Lax to
Speaker 2: retrieve his car like a true drunk idiot. It's one
Speaker 2: of my favorite things. Yeah, I respect it. I respect
Speaker 2: it too. He didn't drink and drive.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that is admirable. Chained himself to the radiator.
Speaker 1: I want to sleep.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think like it's that's a very funny idea
Speaker 3: that you preemptively like you like a dog putting a
Speaker 3: thundershirt on or something.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're like, listen, I know how I get. I'll
Speaker 3: have I'll have a white wine spltzer. But I I
Speaker 3: am aware of what is coming.
Speaker 1: You just have a mass text that goes out to
Speaker 1: everyone in your phone. It's like I'm about to uh
Speaker 1: so my phone has sensed that I just had my
Speaker 1: first drink, and so everything that comes after this should
Speaker 1: be taken with a grain of salt.
Speaker 2: Thing. I've also locked all my bank accounts and preemptively
Speaker 2: filed for divorce with.
Speaker 3: Drinking on a plane is one of my favorite things
Speaker 3: to do. But I know how I get, I know
Speaker 3: how I get, Like, I mean, how much money do
Speaker 3: they make off it? They have to, like they have
Speaker 3: to do it. I mean they have to. They can't
Speaker 3: let they can't.
Speaker 1: Just be like people who like it like it so much, right.
Speaker 3: But there's like there's like feces flying around the cabin,
Speaker 3: like everybody's choking the flight attendants, like you know, it
Speaker 3: just seems like at some point, like it's fodder for
Speaker 3: fucking Fox News because they're like, look, civilization has gone
Speaker 3: to hell, like you know, it's like and so they
Speaker 3: end up being using these videos all to prove that
Speaker 3: we need a dictator and uh, you know, so like
Speaker 3: they said, just said, lose lose, lose lose situation, like
Speaker 3: let's just stop selling alcohol on planes. I love this
Speaker 3: stance because there's no way anybody like would get behind them.
Speaker 3: Never never know, I know, because like but else somebody's
Speaker 3: already fucking loaded up with Xanax and fucking Nike wild
Speaker 3: shit when they get on the plane anyway, So that's
Speaker 3: why their first drink hits them and they start screaming
Speaker 3: about nine to eleven or whatever they do.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, steroids. I mean I jack myself up on
Speaker 2: an anabolic stero.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're already. People are already all fucked begin with.
Speaker 3: And then they have a fucking white wine and it
Speaker 3: seems like a harmless thing to do, but combined with
Speaker 3: the drug cocktail they've already adjested just to get through
Speaker 3: the flight, they've they go immediately ape shit and try
Speaker 3: and murder everybody. And then so I mean, then they
Speaker 3: go around they would you like a drink? You know,
Speaker 3: you know, like right next to the guys strapped to
Speaker 3: the chair. Can I still get a drink? Yeah?
Speaker 1: You look, you guys look stressed out.
Speaker 3: But I promise I'm not gonna go crazy, So I'll
Speaker 3: have a double jack a double, two doubles.
Speaker 2: I once asked for a double the flight attendant without
Speaker 2: skipping a beat, because how about a single? And then
Speaker 2: handle all right, you can't fight with the flight attendant.
Speaker 2: After that, it's like no I need, I need a
Speaker 2: double double.
Speaker 1: And could you pour it in my mouth so I
Speaker 1: don't have to untape my arms?
Speaker 2: Correct? Thank you. That's all I have.
Speaker 3: Into Let's look into it. Let's look into let's do
Speaker 3: some research on it.
Speaker 1: Like it's all a plan to get a dictator. Yeah,
Speaker 1: look at how out of control all these people. What
Speaker 1: if they weren't allowed to drink? Yeah, all right, well
Speaker 1: that let's take a quick break and we'll come back
Speaker 1: and just blow through all those news stories. In six minutes,
Speaker 1: we'll be right back and we're back, and okay, guy
Speaker 1: installed eel aquarium in his rain cistern. I just something
Speaker 1: I don't even need to talk about this. I just
Speaker 1: wanted to bring it to your attention, Chris. It seems
Speaker 1: like a cool thing, like an underground eel cave that
Speaker 1: you can just like build into your house. I don't
Speaker 1: know if this jog's anything for you as a fan
Speaker 1: of weird underground shit on YouTube.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I'm just I'm just I've gotten so
Speaker 3: hooked on a couple of things now with just the
Speaker 3: mind exploration and the guy who finds the bottles that
Speaker 3: I I don't really I don't need any eels or
Speaker 3: anything like that. But I I respect, like, you know,
Speaker 3: anybody who's uh going to the trouble and I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't. I'm not that kind of person myself. I'm
Speaker 3: the kind of person who has a clip light and
Speaker 3: you know, a milk crate and uh and and you
Speaker 3: know in the YouTube and uh, that was my life,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, like in maybe a banana,
Speaker 3: you know, on the counter. So there's not a lot
Speaker 3: happening like as far as like decoration or anything for me.
Speaker 3: So the idea of like putting an eel farm in
Speaker 3: my basement is like it just from a labor standpoint.
Speaker 3: I just think about it. Yeah, like I could be
Speaker 3: I could be watching television during that time that was.
Speaker 1: A bit of a try hard Whereas like the people
Speaker 1: who you kind of pay attention to are more people
Speaker 1: who have a shovel and notice that there's a little
Speaker 1: dip in a field and go and are like, yeah,
Speaker 1: people used to shit there and drop their bottles.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like to I like to watch them do it.
Speaker 3: I don't want to do it. I don't want to dig.
Speaker 3: I like to sit on my ass. I like to
Speaker 3: write poems. They are one of the least you don't
Speaker 3: need to exert yourself. And yeah, I like those kinds
Speaker 3: of things. I like thinking, I like looking off into
Speaker 3: the middle distance. Yeah, like I don't really want to
Speaker 3: like fuck with eels, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 3: and that's the problem. Is like when you have like
Speaker 3: a significant other, like like a woman who you know
Speaker 3: might be interested in a man that did some stuff.
Speaker 3: You know, like I think that is a good idea.
Speaker 3: Like I think a woman, even if she didn't like
Speaker 3: the eels, might be like, well, this show's an initiative.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and she'd be right guessing this is not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, look at this guy, this guy I just met.
Speaker 3: He has an eel farm in his basement. I mean,
Speaker 3: that's not what I ever really wanted. But I've been
Speaker 3: divorced twice, and you know, slip beckons in this guy.
Speaker 3: I mean, if he has enough money, if he has
Speaker 3: enough money, he has enough money to be raising a
Speaker 3: couple of chimps, and and he has this eel farm.
Speaker 3: So this guy, I mean, you know, he's a driver's head.
Speaker 1: Instructor, so you read on this is this guy just
Speaker 1: built his underground, subterranean eel farm for the ladies.
Speaker 3: Yes, as like a way to show that he is
Speaker 3: motivated or because he's insane and has sex with the
Speaker 3: eels in some way.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, yeah, there's always there's always the chance that
Speaker 1: this is like to him what the moths are to bust.
Speaker 3: Two reasons a man does anything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they are the same reason that it turns
Speaker 1: out it's this same reason.
Speaker 3: Are you having sex with the eels or are you
Speaker 3: trying to obtain sex by having the heels? Yes? All right,
Speaker 3: uh polly hashtag obtained sex obtain Oh god? Oh fuck?
Speaker 1: Should should we talk poly and the biking? Yeah, So
Speaker 1: we've talked before about how a lot of Western European
Speaker 1: and American cities were essentially designed by cars. Like it's
Speaker 1: like a new species came along and was like, we're
Speaker 1: cars and we're just going to have you change everything
Speaker 1: to be as efficient for us to get from one
Speaker 1: place to another. But there have been a couple of
Speaker 1: stories that have made us feel like maybe it's not
Speaker 1: too late to undo some of that damage. Usually those
Speaker 1: things are happening on the Western European side of that,
Speaker 1: not in the American side of that.
Speaker 2: I understand it rarely comes from here.
Speaker 3: It does not.
Speaker 1: On our side, we had like a couple months at
Speaker 1: the beginning of the pandemic where New York was like,
Speaker 1: we're just not going to have like cars around. We're
Speaker 1: going to like let people walk around a little bit.
Speaker 1: And we were like what if they left? And but
Speaker 1: before we could say what if we left, it like
Speaker 1: that like finished that sentence, they had already like let
Speaker 1: the cars back, and.
Speaker 2: All the birds killed themselves when the cars came back.
Speaker 2: It's like, oh, there's nature, Yeah here, why is that?
Speaker 1: But so Paris is showing us like what this would
Speaker 1: look like. They have this very ambitious climate plan that
Speaker 1: includes transforming streets into zones reserved for pedestrians, bicycles, and
Speaker 1: public transport. Like these zones sound like Central Park a
Speaker 1: little bit like what if it was all just you know,
Speaker 1: I guess Central Park has like a couple roads that
Speaker 1: go through, but they're like usually closed and like they
Speaker 1: like there's like one car at a time going through
Speaker 1: it for the most part. And so this plan aims
Speaker 1: to have like thirty thousand parking stands, one thousand spaces
Speaker 1: reserved for cargo bikes, fifty two kilometers of provisional tracks,
Speaker 1: three hundred kilometers of bicycle tracks, one thousand kilometers of
Speaker 1: bike lanes. Just I don't know, it sounds cool to
Speaker 1: me like that that would be how your city is designed.
Speaker 1: Is just like a place where you could like walk
Speaker 1: around without being concerned that your child would be like
Speaker 1: pancaked by a fucking muscle car, you know, which is
Speaker 1: like ninety percent of my mind when I'm walking around
Speaker 1: with my kid is like, well, how do I ensure
Speaker 1: that they aren't they don't run into the street and
Speaker 1: get run over by a fucking car. And it's it's
Speaker 1: wild that, you know, we didn't have any saying that
Speaker 1: it was just like that used to not be the case,
Speaker 1: and then over the past seventy years they were just like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's better for commerce, so we're gonna make it so
Speaker 1: you just have to keep your fucking head on a
Speaker 1: swivel at all times in order to get from place
Speaker 1: to place.
Speaker 2: And the consequences couldn't be fucking higher, by the way,
Speaker 2: if you if you screw up. And as a an
Speaker 2: avid cyclist, I have the lower body of a hippopotamus.
Speaker 2: I am very pro bike. But I've known or I've
Speaker 2: seen that American cities will do something where they'll they'll
Speaker 2: claim that they're very bike friendly, but in that like, oh,
Speaker 2: we have so many bike lanes, but they're not protected
Speaker 2: bike lanes. Yes, so it's like, oh, no, we painted
Speaker 2: a green stripe on the street, so it's on the.
Speaker 3: Side of the highway, on the side.
Speaker 2: Of the other side of the highway. So yeah, which
Speaker 2: with all all the you know, motorists will be like,
Speaker 2: oh shit, there's a green stripe on the ground that
Speaker 2: we no one sees, and yeah, I think that's the
Speaker 2: vernacular around it too, can be often misleading when because
Speaker 2: there's nothing better than a protected bike lane, and to
Speaker 2: your point, it'll get rid of less or it'll cause
Speaker 2: less emissions. People are also you're getting around and exercising,
Speaker 2: like you don't have to be going a thousand miles
Speaker 2: per hour. It's like, oh, like you get your heart right,
Speaker 2: you're removing your body around a little bit. You know.
Speaker 2: It's and it's kind.
Speaker 1: Of ten extra minutes to get where you're going, even
Speaker 1: if you're going like a cross town correct. Yeah, if
Speaker 1: that good for you, you'll feel better. It's such a
Speaker 1: better way to like have a civilization and like this
Speaker 1: they built this shit and now more people commute to
Speaker 1: work in Paris like now as of now, like they
Speaker 1: they've been doing this for the past few years. It's
Speaker 1: like going to get more and more ambitious over the
Speaker 1: next five but as of now, like more people are
Speaker 1: commuting to work on bike than car. And like when
Speaker 1: they started this, that was like unhurt Like they were like, well, no,
Speaker 1: like of course not that's you know, it's it was
Speaker 1: like an American city.
Speaker 3: Did you see the the just quickly that the Paris
Speaker 3: speaking of just not only are they walking or biking
Speaker 3: to work, but they twenty five percent They just had
Speaker 3: a story in the New York Times, twenty five percent
Speaker 3: of Parisians live in public housing. Not not affordable housing,
Speaker 3: public housing, right, And that's what I ran on when
Speaker 3: I ran for city council. I ran for this affordable housing,
Speaker 3: this notion of affordable housing. It's not affordable anyway, you know,
Speaker 3: Like what they're talking about is affordable for you know,
Speaker 3: if you're upper middle class or middle class, Like I mean,
Speaker 3: I don't even know if there's such a thing as
Speaker 3: a middle class, but you know there's there's like affordable
Speaker 3: is like oh fourteen hundred bucks for a one bedroom
Speaker 3: or something that's still out of the reach of most
Speaker 3: people who work in the service industry. And that's most
Speaker 3: was a lot of the certainly the artists who live here,
Speaker 3: and uh and just regular people who work in the
Speaker 3: service industry. I mean that's the gig economies, the service industry.
Speaker 3: I mean, you can't make enough to pay fourteen hundred
Speaker 3: dollars a month rent doing that, no matter how many
Speaker 3: fucking door dashes you deliver, and so like you need
Speaker 3: sub and people are like, oh, what about if we
Speaker 3: don't if we don't want public housing, Look what happened
Speaker 3: to public housing. But that's just like what happened to
Speaker 3: public housing. I mean, yeah, it's like got some crime
Speaker 3: in it, but so does regular housing. And also those
Speaker 3: people still live in Nashville. Otherwise they wouldn't be here.
Speaker 3: They are in public housing, and that's why they're here.
Speaker 3: And uh so Paris unfortunately has like you know, hasn't
Speaker 3: been brainwashed like America into thinking like that the cars
Speaker 3: are in the constitution, you know, right, yeah, yeah, because
Speaker 3: they've been around for one thousand, ten thousand years or whatever.
Speaker 3: We've been around for two hundred. Well, you know, in
Speaker 3: this current incarnation, a couple three hundred years, you know,
Speaker 3: and it seems like most of the time we've had
Speaker 3: cars as far as I noticed.
Speaker 1: Think, yeah, I think it would work, Like I really
Speaker 1: think we could just like car if it just kept
Speaker 1: trying at city in cities around the US, like just
Speaker 1: this is so, this is being done in cities around
Speaker 1: Europe and like this mayor who has instituted this, like
Speaker 1: it's a major part of her platform and she's so
Speaker 1: popular that she's running for president now, like she's like
Speaker 1: it's been done in London, Milan, Barcelona, and those candidates
Speaker 1: have also gotten like huge marks. It's just like an
Speaker 1: easy way too. I mean, I guess not easy in
Speaker 1: the US, but it is like a guaranteed winner if
Speaker 1: you just do it in your city, like because people
Speaker 1: want like walkable, livable cities where you don't have to
Speaker 1: worry about like just you know, taking a step in
Speaker 1: the wrong direction and being killed. Like but we can't,
Speaker 1: like in the US, like we can't do anything about
Speaker 1: it because we're like captive to I don't know, fucking
Speaker 1: chambers of commerce.
Speaker 3: Like Bruce Braingstein's songs about barefoot girls on the hood
Speaker 3: of a dodge. Yeah, yeah, exactly, you know, which I
Speaker 3: love that song. But you know this is we're we're
Speaker 3: just brought up to think cars are as American as
Speaker 3: as as apple pie and fucking freedom. And I mean,
Speaker 3: you're not gonna take You're not gonna take my car
Speaker 3: is the same. You'll get the same resistance like you're
Speaker 3: trying to take it.
Speaker 2: Gun, Well, I keep my gun in my car.
Speaker 3: Cars, Yeah, you can't take my cars? Has got my
Speaker 3: gun in my guns?
Speaker 1: Are? Well? Okay, so why don't you show me what
Speaker 1: my gun rack looks like on the back of that
Speaker 1: ten speed.
Speaker 3: It's it's in various saves in my car. It's in
Speaker 3: my car, and very.
Speaker 1: The only walkable city I'm comfortable with is the Walking
Speaker 1: Dead walk.
Speaker 3: Yes, cars in general. Let's just like cars in general
Speaker 3: were a terrible idea. Like the whole idea. It was
Speaker 3: a bad idea. It's just that nobody everybody likes them
Speaker 3: and that's the problem. So they just like them. So
Speaker 3: that's the you know, but really big picture, cars were
Speaker 3: a terrible idea. And I'm going to say one thing
Speaker 3: real quick because I know we're running out of time,
Speaker 3: but I want to say there's this documentary called My
Speaker 3: Architect on criteria.
Speaker 2: You promoted humans again, like you forgot that you ever
Speaker 2: talked about or didn't.
Speaker 3: I would have the greatest episode ever. But I said
Speaker 3: that also, Jackmans, I don't know the name of it.
Speaker 3: Go to YouTube, put it in HUMANSI there's probably a
Speaker 3: bunch of stuff that comes up. I can't remember it,
Speaker 3: says CI on it. I don't know what channel that was,
Speaker 3: but a sci fi maybe, s C I do we
Speaker 3: talk about this? I'm fifty five, thank you, so h.
Speaker 3: I just wanted to say that there's this this documentary
Speaker 3: called My Architect, and it's about this architect named Louis Khan.
Speaker 3: But it's about his son who didn't know him because
Speaker 3: his dad had three different families that didn't know about
Speaker 3: each other. And his dad was five ft six and
Speaker 3: severely burnt as a child in Estonia, and he came
Speaker 3: to America and became this He didn't hit his stride
Speaker 3: as an artist until he was fifty one, which I like,
Speaker 3: and I'm already kicking his ass. Are so he he
Speaker 3: designed these buildings, he designed the capital of Bangladesh, and anyway,
Speaker 3: he was a terrible dad. But it's this beautiful documentary
Speaker 3: about Nathaniel Khan but Khan is not his real name.
Speaker 3: Is he changed He was Jewish. He changed his name
Speaker 3: in the early his father changed his name in the
Speaker 3: twenties or something. But anyway, Louis Khan is this architect. Anyway,
Speaker 3: his idea for Philadelphia, and that's why I thought of it.
Speaker 3: He lived, grew up in Philadelphia after he came from Estonia,
Speaker 3: and he wanted to He was one of the architects
Speaker 3: that he had a huge proposal for downtown Philadelphia and
Speaker 3: it was to have cars all left outside the city.
Speaker 3: And this is in and he was laughed out of
Speaker 3: town and everybody said, oh, you know, these William F.
Speaker 3: Buckley types. And one of whom's in the documentary's still
Speaker 3: angry about it. He's like, he wanted to leave the
Speaker 3: cars outside of town. Fucking idiot, you know, like we
Speaker 3: have the cars in town in this country, in this country,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So I don't know who
Speaker 3: this fucking guy thinks he is. But anyway, and it
Speaker 3: was just so interesting because he was right. The idea
Speaker 3: was that there would be these giant car parks or
Speaker 3: like you know, like a car garage just that were
Speaker 3: also kind of beautiful that he built all around the city.
Speaker 3: Everybody would walk from them into the city, so there
Speaker 3: would be no cars.
Speaker 1: It's just waiting there for some somebody to put it
Speaker 1: together and become incredibly popular. But it's it's just wild
Speaker 1: that like that that would be so popular with young people.
Speaker 1: It would be popular with with the elderly who like
Speaker 1: can't really drive at this point. But it's like that
Speaker 1: mainstream money making commerce, you know, albatross like it. There's
Speaker 1: gotta be a like if one city pulls it off,
Speaker 1: like it will become such a like tourist hotspot. Like
Speaker 1: I would just like go there all the time just
Speaker 1: to like experience a city without cars. That would be
Speaker 1: fucking wonderful. The Grove is the best example, the closest
Speaker 1: we have to this in the US.
Speaker 3: It's incredible, and they have like an Eiffel Tower that
Speaker 3: sparks out of and stuffy growth. Stunning, stunning.
Speaker 1: That's why we should have elected Caruso. Thank you all right,

Speaker 1: That's not that's not even a joke. That's just a
Speaker 1: fact about Blair strong, so strong it's crazy.
Speaker 3: I mean, I like my own joke. I'll do one
Speaker 3: of my own tweets just cuz do it. It's for
Speaker 3: my birthday. It's for my birthday. Nothing makes me want
Speaker 3: to play less than when a therapist says play is important.
Speaker 2: This is from the Crofton Show. The tweet is today's
Speaker 2: my birthday.
Speaker 3: Today's my birthday, and here's my venmo. But yeah, like,
Speaker 3: you know what therapists say that, you know, they say

Speaker 1: my therapist.
Speaker 3: Oh god, yeah, yeah that's I get it. I get that.
Speaker 3: I understand the concept.
Speaker 1: But it's actually homework about how I should have more fun,
Speaker 1: and I'm reading it because my therapist assigned it to me.
Speaker 2: My house made of twigs keeps falling down when I'm
Speaker 2: reading my book about play.
