But 168 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 1: it does seem like, I don't know, it's not an embarrassment. 169 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 1: It's certainly like I'm sure he doesn't mind people googling 170 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity throwing a football expecting to see Connor McGregor 171 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: throwing out a first pitch and then you know, it's fine. 172 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: It's just fine, but it's not gonna it's not gonna 173 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: deliver on the on on our expectations if we're expecting 174 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: to see just a joke, you know, in honor of 175 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: do your own research Day, I think people listening should 176 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: just go and see it for yourselves. You know, it's 177 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 1: on YouTube. It's like in slow motion, so you could 178 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: really look at it frame by frame and observe the technique. 179 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 1: I don't think it's that bad, but you know people 180 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: might disagree. Well, I mean because also what his other 181 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: thing to be like a macho every man is his 182 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: m m a share right, like where he like fights 183 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: in an apartment. Like I've seen that footage where he's 184 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: like training, but it's like not at a gym, and 185 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: it looks like a day's in like business, Like what 186 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: is this place you're ting and Sean?

Yeah, popping every day? 189 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: Oh man? What is something you think is overrated? I 190 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: thought long hard about this because I listened to the show, 191 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: and I'm like, what the hell is overrated? It's got 192 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: to be Hunter Biden's art. I don't know why he 193 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: sold five pieces for like what was it? No, he 194 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: just sold all five that he put on almost instantly. 195 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: And The New York Post is writing raving reviews for 196 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: some reason, which is totally confusing because they've been calling 197 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: him a crackhead for like the last year. Now they're saying, actually, 198 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: he does pretty good art if you check it out 199 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 1: and actually look I feel like this kid, he just 200 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: like ripped off somebody off the Dvan art. He's not 201 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: He's just making splatters. It's not it doesn't look good. 202 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: And I feel like because there's only something because of 203 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 1: his name, give one presidency, one presidency later, just wait 204 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: that like four years, whoever bought that art for seventy 205 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: five thousand's gonna be looking at themselves like, why the 206 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: hell do I have this thing? Their kids gonna be like, Dad, 207 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: can I go to college? Do I have a college fund? 208 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: To be? Like, Sorry, son, we just didn't pan out 209 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: like we wanted it to. Sorry, wild Like this ship 210 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: is bad. I mean, look, I'm look, maybe I'm mad 211 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: because you know, my father is an artist, so I 212 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: like pretty critical art. I not that it's based in 213 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: anything reasonable, but this ship is something for seventy is 214 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: an affront to people who are like actually dedicating themselves 215 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: to making art. And the fact that he had an 216 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: opening at Milk Studios in Hollywood that is such industry ship. 217 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, I think some I think they're laundering money 218 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: with this ship. They have to be. It's it's like 219 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: that painting where they somebody some poor woman in Spain 220 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: tried to fix the painting of Jesus, and she's like 221 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: smudged the lips and made it look like this crazy 222 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: cartoon look at things when it made it look worse, 223 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: but at the same time it made it more valuable 224 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: because of the story behind it. To think with like 225 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: a Banksy piece or banks he tried to subvert to 226 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: industry by selling a piece that was going to self 227 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: destruct when it sold. Did you guys see that? Like 228 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: the frame itself was a shredder, and so as soon 229 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: as they sold it for whatever, much like shredded itself, 230 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: but that only made it worth more. It's like all 231 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: about being viral that they've basically been selling n f 232 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: T s. That's that's right, right, which again great way 233 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: to launder money. Hey, I sold myself a n f 234 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: T from with bitcoin I got off of like a 235 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: hacking operation and that's trace, so I bought it as 236 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: an n f T and now it's all clean. Yeah, 237 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: they probably had to do the Hunter Biden. I want 238 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: to be surprised. Yeah, either that or cash in an envelope? Right, 239 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: is this the right? Like doing sort of co and 240 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: tell pro like type ship like just like really like 241 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: four D chest ship where they're like Sean Hannity can't 242 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: throw all football. So people google that and they're like 243 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: he's okay, or Hunting Hunter Biden's art is good and 244 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,559 Speaker 1: then like we have to go look and be like 245 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: not really, but they're just like trying to seed low 246 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: or high expectations anything too is just like with art right, 247 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: Like it says that the people who bought it were 248 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: like close like personal friends of the person who owned 249 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 1: the gap, like whose gallery was putting on the show, 250 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: which I mean, you know there is there is some 251 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: type of ship where you say you bought the ship 252 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 1: for seventy five, you didn't and the artist says that 253 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 1: they sold it for seventy five they didn't. But that 254 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: helps in the long run because then it could get 255 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: that much or make you know, following works of art 256 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: worth more because you've set like a baseline for what 257 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: his work is worth. But I don't, I mean, I 258 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: just don't know, like an art collector who's like, and 259 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: this is a Hunter Biden original, Yes, I know I 260 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: have I have a couple other ones. That is a 261 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: George O'Keeffe right next to it, but this is just 262 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: one of a kind. Hunter Biden nightmare piece. I mean, 263 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: this actually has a basis in history of like presidential 264 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: failed son or fail brother like memorabilia, because like Billy 265 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: beer was a thing that came out during the Jimmy 266 00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: Carter presidency, like his brother, like really east a beer 267 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: that was like kind of a joke and it tastes 268 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: really bad, but everybody it was it was like the 269 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: baseball cards of the time. Everyone's like, oh, if you 270 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: just keep one of these and like don't open it, 271 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna be a millionaire one day. And then like 272 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: there was just a really a bunch of really shitty 273 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: beer that that never got open, uh, and it didn't 274 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: growing value. So maybe maybe this is like just a 275 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: in that tradition part of the I can't imagine like 276 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: in a generation people are even gonna know who Hunter 277 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: Biden is. It was like the biggest non story for 278 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: the people who are not at the center of the story. 279 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: I'm looking at this artwork. I'm looking at this artwork 280 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: and I'm saying, they're not gonna know who Joe Biden is. 281 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: They're gonna know who Hunter Biden is because his work 282 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: is gonna overshadow everything. I'm looking at the fucking Guernica 283 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: right now, Okay, it's a fucking masterpiece. You. I also 284 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: feel like you need to give me one painting where 285 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: you do something like a realistic or something, because it's 286 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: all abstract ship that like I don't know, I'm not 287 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: I'm not seeing anything that's like but you know, like 288 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: Andy Warhol was a great artists, like he could paint 289 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: like things that looked like what they were supposed to 290 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: look like and also do like pop art. I feel 291 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: like I need I need to see that to appreciate 292 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: Hunter's artwork because it's also like it's a bad version 293 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: of like Murakami Taka. She's like work like it's very 294 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: It's like it's like he it's like Hunter Biden saw 295 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: like one of his pieces, like yo, that's kind of weird. Yeah, daddy, 296 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: I want The only way this is gonna make sense 297 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: is if Donald Trump Jr. Also had like a painting 298 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: career he was trying to drop in. Hunter was like, actually, 299 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this first and steal all. That's the 300 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: only way this would make sense to me. Then the 301 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: sad part is like his art's like really good because 302 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: he's so tortured from like like not because having a 303 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: relationship with his father, and it's so vivid his work, 304 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: it's paint portraits of him in his bathroom. There, that's 305 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: the right. Did they want to actually listen to that 306 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: fight commentary from September eleven where Trump and Trump Junior, 307 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: because it was apparently like his disdain for Donald Trump 308 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: Junior was like palpable, like like like tell him to 309 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: shut up kind of ship. Yeah, yeah, like he ignored 310 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 1: him other than to correct him. And there was another 311 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: person doing the broadcast with them who was an actual 312 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 1: m M A fighter, and Trump was, you know, as 313 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: he as he is wanted to be like very impressed 314 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 1: by big strong men and was just like deferring to 315 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 1: him and basically implying that Donald Trump Junior should shut 316 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: the funk up. He's like, I'm sorry about my kid. 317 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: He's kind of an embarrassment. He speaks out of turn 318 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,719 Speaker 1: of life. And you see you see his arms like 319 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 1: two big Christmas hands. As I said, bick note buddy, 320 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: the secrets and toll his room energy. You just have 321 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: to ignore everybody, just only time in to correct them. Yes, 322 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 1: he would never call Junior buddy. By the way, what 323 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 1: is what is something you think is underrated. I would 324 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 1: say the Capital Riders, man, you know, I was there. 325 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: I think we talked about this last time. I keep 326 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: thinking about how insane it is that more almost all 327 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: of them walked in after the cops had already given up, 328 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: did their little tour, and left, And I keep thinking 329 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 1: back to that, and I'm like, Yo, honestly, that's like 330 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: the dream for some of these protesters, Like if the 331 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,400 Speaker 1: Women's March, we're able to just kind of storm in 332 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: after all the violence that ord occurred, so their hands 333 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: are basically cleaned. They're basically being allowed in because the 334 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,479 Speaker 1: cops had given up and they don't want to die 335 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: for the building. That's kind of an amazing feat. So 336 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: I don't know, I feel like everyone's been, including myself, 337 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: just talking about these people like they're crazy, sickos and 338 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: psychos and they all live in like a shed in 339 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,239 Speaker 1: the middle of the woods like the bomber. But they 340 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 1: got it done then, they got it done right. Yeah, 341 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: that strategy works. And a white supremacist country, when it's 342 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 1: a bunch of white people fighting for white supremacy, what's 343 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 1: your reason first storming the capital today? If it's something 344 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: anti capitalist, we will shoot you in the face immediately 345 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: white supremacy right this way, Yeah, to the left. We 346 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: have windows that we failed to reinforce with any kind 347 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 1: of safety measures. They're right underneath the building. If you 348 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: just smash those out, you'll get right in right. It's like, honestly, 349 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. And I mean to your point about 350 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: them being underrated when you look at that. We I 351 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: talked about this all the time. The sentences that are 352 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: being handed down to these people are like the lightest 353 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: slaps on the wrist. Dude, they're getting to go home. Yeah, 354 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: they're attacking cops and they're like, oh, it's okay. You 355 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 1: can do like you're serving you can you can basically 356 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: serve your term at home. You're lucky you don't get 357 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: shot if you're you're the wrong color, right, or just 358 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: do and there And to think that in places like Minneapolis, 359 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: like we're talking about last week, they were using words 360 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 1: like we're hunting, we're going out hunting that they were 361 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: like a game. Yeah, I mean, do you think because 362 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: I was it was funny before we came on. I 363 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: was talking about like I always I always read your 364 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 1: work in Slate, and I remember one of the around 365 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 1: the time of the what was it like the September eight, 366 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: the Big Justice for j six wet fart of a rally. 367 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: You had written a piece about how like they don't 368 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: really need to and they don't need to gather in 369 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: physical space anymore. Like they've they they've already seen that 370 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 1: they have each other out there, and now it's more like, 371 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: let's shift our focus on actual ways to exert kind 372 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: of power than just showing up screaming. And that's the 373 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 1: scary part is that they've they've kind of learned their 374 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: lessons from the capitol right where they they just discovered 375 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: what's the benefit from doing something like that and what 376 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 1: they can lose. And maybe some of them had the right, 377 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 1: the right uh, the right reaction, where like, yo, we're 378 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: actually losing the middle ground here. But we can go 379 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: to these school board meetings and scream our asses off 380 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: about wanting to save the children, and anybody who screams 381 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 1: against us looks like they're trying to kill kids on purpose. 382 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 1: That's sort of an easy win. And they know that 383 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: those people are not going to be protected. They can 384 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: follow them home and they can threaten them with guns 385 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: or whatever they want, and they're gonna be fine and 386 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: doing so, and so I think they've learned their lesson 387 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: and they realize that they can actually get those people 388 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: to quit and run unopposed and get their jobs and 389 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: just basically start grooming the next generation by red pilling 390 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:37,360 Speaker 1: them before they even know what's what. Yeah, and it's working. 391 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: It's working. It's I don't think anybody's really figured out 392 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: a how to stop them from doing that and be 393 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: how to get people to hold these positions. You know, 394 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: how do we get people who are going to be 395 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: stucked and threatened and have their families threatened with violence? 396 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: How do we tell them hold your ground? Otherwise these 397 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 1: people are going to be rewriting your kids textbooks. It's 398 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 1: sort of a lose lose situation, right, Yeah, it's like that. 399 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,399 Speaker 1: It's sort of like, I mean, in a terrible like analogy, 400 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: but like you're trying to get into like the big club, 401 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 1: like the Sormu of the capitals, like yo, that nice 402 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,719 Speaker 1: club you know where the celebrities go, and they're like, no, man, 403 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 1: you can't get in here, Like fuck it, We'll go 404 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 1: to this dive bar. I know we can get into where. 405 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: That's how they're like, okay, well we couldn't exert power there. 406 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 1: There's places where it's the easiest point of entry into 407 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: decision making positions, like in our communities, and that's where 408 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: we'll go instead because nobody's checking there. Yeah, did you 409 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: guys see what happened in Tennessee? Now what happened like 410 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: Q and On conspiracy woman is now head of textbooks 411 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: in Tennessee, and so now she's gonna be the one 412 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: deciding what textbooks kid bought and what's being taught in 413 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: these classes across the boards for the whole state. And 414 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 1: she's like this conspiracy Q and On person. It's it's like, 415 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 1: that's the ground that we can't see. We're already losing it. 416 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: And this is where I know I'm not shipped because 417 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: I'm immediate, like I need to write that motherfucking textbook 418 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 1: and get rich.

It 421 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: began with Bill Clinton's Lewinsky affair. Yeah, exactly, that was Yeah. Actually, no, 422 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: I guess Ronald Reagan would have to be the founding father. Okay, Okay, 423 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 1: my bad. I'm I'm a workshop. There you go, all right, 424 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll come back. And 425 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: we're back, and let's talk about some of the people 426 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: that you know, we've covered a few stories about how 427 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: like outrage healthcare workers are refusing to get vaccinated, cops 428 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: are willing to walk out, and so there we're starting 429 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: to see like some results from overall, like you know, 430 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 1: companies that had put in place vaccine mandates and it's 431 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: like it's seems to be generally like one only one 432 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,679 Speaker 1: percent of people refused to be vaccinated and have to 433 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 1: be let go. Yeah, I mean there's like sexier numbers 434 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: like in New York, like we're four hundred people, we're 435 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,919 Speaker 1: going to be terminated and things like that. But you 436 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: know there's places like United where they have sixties seven 437 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: thousand employees, only six hundred ended up leaving, or like 438 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: a healthcare system in North Carolina that employees over thirty 439 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: five thousand, it's only like a hundred and twenties something 440 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 1: that left again like less than one percent. And I mean, 441 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: I think there's like this, you know, clearly there's a 442 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: there's a like schadenfreud to aspect. I think to it 443 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 1: because the majority of the nation is like, we can't 444 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: just let these people like hold us back. So the 445 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: idea that it's like, oh they're taking elves with their careers, yeah, yeah, yeah, 446 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,479 Speaker 1: we want to see that. But I think it's also 447 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 1: it's giving people a very skewed idea of like just 448 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: how like what the resolve is of many people to 449 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 1: be like yeah, like I'm I'm all about freedom. I 450 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 1: don't need a job. It doesn't seem just like that. 451 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: There was a CNBC story that was like about Northern 452 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: Illinois University, like vaccine mandates are like causing people to 453 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: like drop out, but if you read the article, it's 454 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 1: only like two people. So you spent all this, you 455 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: spend all this, all these resources to write a story 456 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: with this headline, but yet when it boils down to it, 457 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, two people of the thousands took off, 458 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 1: and where I don't know, it's it's just kind of 459 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: a just a moment where I'm like looking at Okay. 460 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: So clearly I know conservative media is incentivized to keep 461 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: the outrage about vaccine mandates, you know, like brewing as 462 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: long as possible. But then even like on just other media, 463 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 1: sites just seems like even you know, left or centrist 464 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: sites still a very similar thing to like very much 465 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: focus on this, and I think it gives people a 466 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: very different idea of what's happening. Yeah, and you know, 467 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: you were pointing out it in kind of your right 468 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 1: up here, that this is something that we've seen every 469 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: Like I've actually heard people specifically have this question, be 470 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 1: like there's no way that like when the smallpox vaccine 471 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: came out, or when the polio vaccine came out, like 472 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: there was this much resistance, like we're we are at 473 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: a uniquely dumb time, and you know that that's not 474 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: the case. There was resistance. It just wore down over time, 475 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: and we were able to you know, use vaccinations to 476 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: eradicate smallpox by you know, after it was over the 477 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: course of like fifty years, but it did at the 478 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 1: time right now. Yeah, but but yeah, like there were 479 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 1: people like marching on schools to be like, we don't 480 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,920 Speaker 1: want our kids to get the smallpox vaccine, like back 481 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,479 Speaker 1: back at the beginning of the twentieth century, and cities 482 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: and town towns all over the U S face backlash 483 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: over the mandates, but it just didn't gain as much 484 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 1: traction as people being like, yeah, this appears to be 485 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: working because their friends movements, you know, in their estence. 486 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 1: You know, this is like a microcosm of exactly what 487 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: the hell is wrong with the way that we consume 488 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: news and the way we even write about news. You know, 489 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 1: I hate talking about media as a pejorative, especially someone 490 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: who's like in the media as a writer, because there's 491 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,640 Speaker 1: so many people who disagree, and you know, it's it's 492 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 1: the way we decide on what gets written about has 493 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: nothing to do with what stories we think are the truest. 494 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: It's like, what do we think people are going to 495 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 1: engage with? Right, That's just how everybody in the media, 496 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 1: no matter big or small. That's how we think of 497 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: what's the successful piece. And that's a problem. I'm saying. 498 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: That's like, well, that's what's wrong with it. But then, 499 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 1: you know, based on the way we consume news media, 500 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: we're sort of piecemealing whatever our reality is, and so 501 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if we write about the the fifteen 502 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:55,479 Speaker 1: that quit or the hundred and fifty who didn't. You know, 503 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: even though the clear majority, depending on how you feel 504 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: about the vaccine in the first place, that what you're 505 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: gonna see that's what you're gonna attach yourself to. You know. 506 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys saw the there was 507 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: like a death last week. There's this woman out in 508 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: Seattle named Jessica berg Wilson who lost her life, uh, supposedly, 509 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: because this is all we know is what was written 510 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 1: in habituary. Supposedly because she took the J and J 511 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: vaccine and got symptoms and eventually died and lost her life. 512 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: And she was like this young, healthy person, and so 513 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: she's if that's true, that's the fourth person in America 514 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,359 Speaker 1: who died after taking a vaccine. The fourth person, and 515 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: there have been millions of doses that have been handed out, 516 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: but that fourth person is enough for all of these 517 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: anti vaccine pundance and mouthpieces or even news websites that 518 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: are they're going to attach themselves to the story and 519 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: pump out like four or five six articles just about 520 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: those four just about though that family that now doesn't 521 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: have a mom in their life because of what happened 522 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: to her, which is a real thing and it's a 523 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: tragic thing. That's four out of millions, So it's it's 524 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 1: really got. It really just comes down to what you 525 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: already think, which is really scary. Yeah, yeah, right, and 526 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: who's how are you? How will it affect your confirmation bias? 527 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: That's the that's the problem with doing your own research. 528 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: I think that's why it's so scary to throw your 529 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: weight behind it, because it's like doing your own research 530 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: really in this day and age where there's so much 531 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: information and it's impossible to tell what's real and what's 532 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: wrong because sometimes what's wrong is has a grain of 533 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: reality attached to it, And so do you do your 534 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: own research and you're basically looking for what validates what 535 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: you already think. And that's why it's so easy for 536 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: some of these people to say, do your own research, 537 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: and they expect you to find what they're finding, which 538 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: is the stories like Jessica burg Wilson's and not the 539 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: millions of others that have had no symptoms and then 540 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: now going to ban because they have a vaccine. Right, 541 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: it would be wild if they just do like a 542 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: versus battle of like uh, like you know, microbiologists, epidemiologists, 543 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: tagg team versus like Robert F. Kennedy and some other 544 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: like anti vax truth or and like this is what 545 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna do it's gonna be a fair one. Okay, 546 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna bring up points, you're gonna let them say 547 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: some wild ship. Then scientists will speak, and then the 548 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: audience from there will decide. I feel like in that way, 549 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: you could be like, can you agree to that? Like 550 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: if we put your person up against some experts, that 551 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: that would be cool. You could just watch them go 552 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: toe to toe. But maybe then they're like, yeah, they 553 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: were cheating. They were cheating the whole thing, Like they 554 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: were cheating scientists. You can't cheating versus what happens happens, 555 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: And that's the that's the law exactly as Dips it. 556 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: There's the thread of this doctor like talking about how 557 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: he talks to people are skeptical of the vaccine that 558 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: I brought up a couple of times on the show, 559 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: but he the main kind of takeaway from me is 560 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 1: that he's amazingly patient with like every single one of 561 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: the counter factuals that people like bring up to him, 562 00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: and also acknowledges the fact that yeah, there have been 563 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: like reactions to the vaccine, just like there are any vaccine. 564 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: Here are the numbers though, and like kind of getting 565 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 1: ahead of that and that that seemed really smart to 566 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: me to just be like and then here are your 567 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: chances if you don't get the vaccine, of contracting COVID, 568 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: which is like hundreds of times higher than having a reaction, 569 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: and then of dying from COVID, which are still like 570 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: dozens of times higher than having a reaction, probably still hundreds. 571 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. Anyways, we have to get to important ship. 572 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 1: Matthew McConaughey has spoken. I'm seeing pick up for this 573 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: like everywhere in the media. The Hollywood Reporter just sent 574 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: me a notification being like here, Matthew McConaughey would be 575 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: risking at all with the governor run, but he'd also 576 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: stand to gain a lot. And it's it's like, why 577 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: is this right a millionaire? Like but yeah, so we've 578 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 1: all been speculating, like what, like just the idea of 579 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: Matthew McConaughey gubernatorial run seems very strange. We have no 580 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: real idea of what his platform would be and we 581 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: still don't um but he talked about it. He said 582 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 1: some words kind of at that question. It's like, is 583 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: he gonna is this gonna be a reality based campaign? 584 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: Will it be a sick ass character study character bit 585 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: he's gonna do, and just based on his answers, it 586 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: kind of sounds like both is what this thing is 587 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: going to be like because he went on Karat Switcher's 588 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: podcast and he he had ideas, he had thoughts. First off, 589 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: just on the abortion band SBA in Texas. He was like, 590 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: it's ruthless, it's terrible, Like he's like the trickery involved 591 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: with the like legal wording is despicable. Six weeks is 592 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: not enough time for anyone, for anyone to make a 593 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 1: reasonable decision, as it would relate to that. So that one, okay, 594 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: seemed like he was on the reality based, reasoned sort 595 00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: of crew there on masks, he said, we were all 596 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: more afraid of the word mandate than we were the 597 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 1: damn mask And I think our pride trumped and stamped 598 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: down our honor there. We chose privilege over principle. Starting 599 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: he's starting to heat up though, getting a little McConaughey here, 600 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: and then he really then they were like, okay, so, like, 601 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: what how do you think about your relationship to politics 602 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 1: and like where you fit in and all this stuff. 603 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: He says, I'm working on what I'm trying to understand 604 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 1: politics to beat WHOA, Okay, I think we've got to 605 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: redefine politics. If each party is only about preservation of party, well, 606 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: I'm almost arguing that's undemocratic. I mean, there's something to that. 607 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: And then he says, if you're only there too, you know, 608 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: by hook or by crook, preserve your party, you're leaving 609 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: out fifty of the people. So I think politics needs 610 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: are redefining. Can only okay, okay, what else you got? 611 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: Then he said, look, I'm not a man who comes 612 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: at politics from a political background. I'm more of a statesman, philosopher, 613 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:09,240 Speaker 1: singing poet. I don't talk I talk people, statesman philosopher, 614 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: folks singing poet. Thank you. That's what I was waiting for. 615 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 1: I was waiting for something something like that. And I 616 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 1: don't know, Yeah, I guess I'm not sure what his 617 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 1: philosophy is. Aside from him, I think he's also on 618 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: that young like radical centrist ship because he's like, the 619 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 1: way I look at it, there's six people out there 620 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: that's the majority, and we have to find it from 621 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: the center. Man, And you're like, oh oh boy, trying 622 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: to fuck me with this answer. That's like just like 623 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 1: the ship that a boy was at a party like 624 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: trying to fuck you, just like are you brushing my 625 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: hair back? I'm more of like a statesman, philosopher, folksinging poet, 626 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: if you okay, sir, thank you? Alright, alright, alright, alright. 627 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't know, well this is I mean, 628 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,879 Speaker 1: only from that last only of Texans are like yeah, yeah, yeah, 629 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: maybe maybe maybe. I mean, it doesn't seem like the 630 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: right state for that sort of thing either, Like I 631 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: mean he I know he's from Texas and like is 632 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: a proud Texan that Texans are proud of. But I 633 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: do feel like there's a there's also like maybe mayor 634 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 1: of Austin would work, but you feel like, yeah, you know, 635 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,760 Speaker 1: he reminds me of man, he reminds me of somebody 636 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 1: like joining a random club and thinking they have it 637 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 1: all figured out and you just feel like, oh, you're 638 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 1: that kid is so naive. He's stepping into It's like 639 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: if you actually think about what people vote on and 640 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: like how they vote, they rarely, they rarely look at 641 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 1: like trying to solve the problems that we have. They're 642 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 1: just like thinking of the one issue they care about most, 643 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: and they're like, well, how does this politician think about 644 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 1: this one issue? How do they care? What do they 645 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 1: think about Texas? And they're just gonna vote whoever is 646 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: going to make their taxes cheaper, or you know, there's 647 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 1: some people to voters on, like abortion and only abortion. 648 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: You know. So it's like, I don't know, man, I 649 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: don't know how many people are really convinced that politics 650 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 1: can be redeemed and that there can be a like 651 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: utopia America or people politicians aren't slimy scumbags. It's like, 652 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: that sounds great, that sounds nice. I think everybody who 653 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 1: gets into politics might think that at some point, But 654 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: then you get there, then you just like people doing 655 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,280 Speaker 1: favors for each other, and it's like people, I don't know, 656 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:35,839 Speaker 1: it's not it's not that clean. I got involved right 657 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 1: when Obama was running and I was like, here we go. 658 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 1: So there's this lobbying firm and I'm like, yeah, bro, 659 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: we will help get this fucking healthcare. And then you're like, wait, 660 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,279 Speaker 1: who's paying my wait? Who cuts my checks? And I'm 661 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 1: like wait, we work for this industry, what the fuck? 662 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: And then I'm like na, dude, I can't I can't 663 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 1: keep doing this ship this is like but very idealistic 664 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: because you have this belief you're like, yeah, it's just 665 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,840 Speaker 1: like the right amount of people, but you're playing a 666 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: rigged game, and so until you can like change the rules, 667 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 1: there's not much that can be done. So I think 668 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: that's why the emphasis really needs to be a little bit. 669 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: People need to zoom out a little bit more and 670 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,359 Speaker 1: be like, it's not just the people that you get 671 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: in there, Like it's fundamentally you're sending them into the 672 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 1: terror dome. So there's pretty much only one outcome. Yeah, 673 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 1: any any one of these experienced politicians will just eat 674 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 1: him alive, man, and they're just gonna get him to 675 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 1: say what they want him to say on like the 676 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 1: condition they help him with something else. And that's just 677 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 1: how politics works behind the scenes, you know, even someone 678 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: like AOC who everybody is like she's the only principled one. 679 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 1: I see it all the time. People believe that, right, 680 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 1: and then you see that she's like voting absent on 681 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 1: something she really fast very hold on, we're on that 682 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: iron dome funding, right, and she's just gonna sit quietly 683 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 1: because she feels like she has to. M I don't know, 684 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: And I'm like yo, just flame out, do you and 685 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 1: if they vote you out, then go out a legend 686 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 1: because you could probably come right back in. But like 687 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: it's but there aren't many politicians and who are willing 688 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 1: to go I will I will ride this ship till 689 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 1: the fucking wheels blow off and I'm voted the funk out. 690 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 1: And Yeah, when you start seeing people triangulate and do 691 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:14,359 Speaker 1: ship like that, you're like you're starting to become You're 692 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 1: you're understanding the hill a little bit, and you're trying 693 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: to survive the hill. You're doing hill survival moves. I 694 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 1: do wonder what the like there there were all these 695 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: uh stolen Facebook numbers that indicated to Bannon and you 696 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: know what whatever that data firm was that they're that America, Yeah, 697 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: Cambridge Analytica. That America was like right for an outsider candidate, 698 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: Like I think it was a couple of years before 699 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: the presidential election, and that's why they backed Trump kind 700 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:46,320 Speaker 1: of reluctantly. I I wonder what those types of numbers 701 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 1: say about the country now, because it does seem like 702 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: we're still kind of, you know, disillusioned with politics as 703 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: it currently exists, but we're also disillusioned with the presidency 704 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: of the outsider that they chose last time, So I 705 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: don't know, I'd be curious. That's what I gonna I 706 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 1: was like, here's all the ways that Bernie could still win, 707 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 1: Like this is how you do it right. I'm one 708 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 1: of those people too where I'm just like sort jaded, 709 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 1: and I get why people say they don't want to vote, 710 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 1: because it feels like we don't really have like we 711 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: don't get to choose we want to vote. We get 712 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 1: to vote against the person we don't want, and that's 713 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: just the system we have and it sucks, but that's 714 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,320 Speaker 1: what we got. And it's hard to start there knowing 715 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 1: that that's what the situation is, trying to convince someone 716 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 1: to to vote with you because you know that this 717 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,280 Speaker 1: person isn't perfect. It's like all the people who wanted Biden, 718 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 1: and it was the purpose was to get Trump out right, Yeah, 719 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: I hope. I'm not like shattering anyone's reality by saying that, 720 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: But that's really why I want to bite it in. 721 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 1: I was like, Yo, Trump is gonna kill us all, 722 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: and I don't want to end up on a list 723 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 1: because he like floated that idea about Muslims. I was like, 724 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: I gotta get this guy out of here before he 725 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 1: started doing that. And you know, that's the that's the baseline, 726 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,439 Speaker 1: that's what we're already. And so when you have someone 727 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: like Matthew McConaughey come in and say like, look I 728 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 1: can fix this, it's like, really, you're you're you're not 729 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 1: selling us on anything new. You're coming in and you're 730 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 1: gonna say I'm going to be the right person. That's 731 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 1: what they all say. And then they come in and 732 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 1: then something happens and then now all of a sudden, 733 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: Gauantanomo is not getting close, and now a sudden, we're 734 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 1: gonna do healthcare, but it's gonna look like this. It's 735 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,799 Speaker 1: not gonna be free. It's everybody's making compromises. Everybody's making 736 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 1: compromises because they had that one issue they got to 737 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 1: get through. So I don't know, I almost rather him 738 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 1: come in and say, look, we gotta fix the wealth 739 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: gap and everything I'm gonna talk about, I'm gonna bring 740 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: back to the wealth gap. Okay, that's a serious that's 741 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 1: a serious strategy. Yeah, all the all the pain you're 742 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: feeling is because of inequality. So that's what I'm here for. Everything. 743 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: I can watch say anything any topic right now, I'll 744 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 1: bring it right back to inequality for you sucking anything 745 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: go and no one talks like that. I mean that's 746 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: the other thing is that I think just the way 747 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: people are communicating to it's still like this hybrid of 748 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,319 Speaker 1: like old Gate bell Way talk, but also just like 749 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: with trying to be somewhat more conversational when really these 750 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: people need to speak directly at the ills and how 751 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: to solve them. But everyone's different. Because I was like, 752 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: this person just hates America. It's like, no, I'm identifying 753 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:17,360 Speaker 1: issues and they're fucked. But my kind might be like, 754 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: I can fix it, man, unlike a Buick Enclave one 755 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 1: that will not ever need any fixing because they're seventy 756 00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 1: two more quarantine serial percent are financing for qualified borrowers. 757 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:33,959 Speaker 1: I mean, we're looking at a new adventure. Sales pitch 758 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: is always like yeah right, it's just so wild they 759 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 1: start encore the Buick Encore g X. Your point on 760 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,840 Speaker 1: people voting for Biden because because he was against Trump 761 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: is interesting. I maybe in the minority here. I actually 762 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,320 Speaker 1: voted for Biden based on the art of his son Hunter, 763 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 1: But I don't know like that, that's a sensitive man, 764 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 1: that artist. Yeah, exactly, we need more news articles about 765 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: the people who voted for Biden, only for right. All right, 766 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. 767 00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 1: And we're back, and there is a new conspiracy theory 768 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 1: that is circulating on the right that you've actually seen 769 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: evidence of if you saw or heard Joe Rogan talked 770 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 1: about how he thought that Joe Biden didn't actually get 771 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 1: the booster shot and that that was like a fake 772 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,279 Speaker 1: booster shot that he got right because he might have 773 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: freaked out on camera. Yeah, he was like he could die, 774 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,400 Speaker 1: He could have died of the of the reaction. Die. 775 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: So that is actually was first forwarded by a bunch 776 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 1: of people who think that Joe Biden has built a 777 00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,920 Speaker 1: fake sound stage on which he appears and pretends to 778 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 1: be in the White House. And they uses this evidence 779 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:08,839 Speaker 1: where he he is photographed in front of windows that 780 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,480 Speaker 1: like have you know, projections of the Rose Garden on them, 781 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:16,720 Speaker 1: and they are like, this is clearly a sound stage. 782 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,720 Speaker 1: He isn't actually the president. We are watching a movie 783 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,840 Speaker 1: with a fake president and Donald Trump is the real president. 784 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: Is what one Q and on one Q and on 785 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: thought leader claimed other people are just using it as 786 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: like sort of a brought like jack uh posts o 787 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:38,720 Speaker 1: Biac is calling it the Truman Show Presidency, which quickly 788 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 1: got pulled bubbled up onto Fox News where was quote 789 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:47,640 Speaker 1: Truman Show presidency. Biden ridiculed for using fake White House set. 790 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: And first of all, that's that's published on Fox News. 791 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 1: Those words out, What do they even mean? What is 792 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 1: that article? Even like, I'm sorry, I'm still hung up 793 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 1: on the thing that you're saying. People are using his 794 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 1: evidence that there was was he actually were there actual 795 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 1: projections of the rose garden in the window or they 796 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 1: mistaken the fact that like the windows they are like 797 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 1: so bulletproof, like it distorts things when you look through it. No. No, 798 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: So there is a building in the White House complex 799 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:22,560 Speaker 1: where lots of presidents have had made appearances. He is 800 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 1: doing most of his appearances from there because it is 801 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: a bigger room than the rooms in the White House. 802 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,800 Speaker 1: And apparently, and I haven't confirmed this, but we're in 803 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 1: the middle of a global fucking pandemic, and so they 804 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 1: don't want a lot of people like a you know, 805 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 1: press swarm of a swarm of press people in the 806 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 1: same room as are like nine year old president during 807 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 1: a global pandemic, and so it's like this big kind 808 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:52,799 Speaker 1: of room in the Eisenhower Executive Office building connected to 809 00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:57,359 Speaker 1: the White House. The press is fully like there are 810 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 1: many photographs that show that it is just a back drop, 811 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 1: like the faux White House aesthetic was created for the 812 00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: Global Coronavirus Summit, but it's in no way looks like 813 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:16,720 Speaker 1: what would fool anyone. And in fact, the the the 814 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 1: projection in the window had the words built back better 815 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 1: floating in the middle of it, which should have been 816 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: a dead giveaway. But uh yeah, yeah, yeah there. There's 817 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:34,800 Speaker 1: so many pictures where it's clearly he's in an auditorium 818 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 1: for policy announcement because it's bigger, and he's not trying 819 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 1: to die from the pandemic, and he's not trying to 820 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 1: kill a bunch of press people from the pandemic. And 821 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: it's just so easy to fact check, like Fox News 822 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:56,759 Speaker 1: knows it's laughably bullshita like untrue, because they are invited 823 00:45:56,880 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 1: to these events. There there, Yeah, they're right there. They 824 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 1: know nobody's trying to pull one over on them, but 825 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,600 Speaker 1: they can report on I mean this kind of ties 826 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: into the theme of the episode, they can report on 827 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:17,320 Speaker 1: the social media response, which makes it like technically true, 828 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 1: despite the fact that the response happens to be a 829 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,799 Speaker 1: bunch of bullshit and they know it. Dude. Have you 830 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 1: have you scrolled down to look at the comments on 831 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 1: the Fox News website. Dude, there's so much despaired going on. 832 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: Someone's like, I feel like we're living in a simulation. 833 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:35,240 Speaker 1: Things are just getting more bizarre by the day. Someone 834 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 1: else is like, I can see this coming from a 835 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 1: mile away. Biden's approval of ranking is falling. Oh my god, man, 836 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:47,960 Speaker 1: they believe they believe this. I mean, the q and 837 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,719 Speaker 1: On kind of conspiracy theory is funny because one person 838 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: is like, in case you need any more proof, you're 839 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 1: definitely watching a movie with a fake president, look no further. 840 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 1: And then they said, I challenge you to find me 841 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,439 Speaker 1: one picture like this while Trump was at the White House. 842 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:07,439 Speaker 1: I'll wait, and it's like, no, they built that song 843 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:11,120 Speaker 1: for this other thing. But also somebody like a q 844 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:14,880 Speaker 1: and On believer was like, but like, so, who if 845 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,280 Speaker 1: if Trump is still president, who's making all these terrible 846 00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 1: decisions that we disagree with? They were shut up, They 847 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:28,880 Speaker 1: didn't say, but I do think that that there is 848 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 1: some interesting questions for the like go just I mean, look, 849 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:35,320 Speaker 1: if if you can see the fucking matrix, then explain 850 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 1: the fucking matrix. Don't just go we are watching a 851 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:44,600 Speaker 1: movie right now, folks, and who is producing the film 852 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 1: and for what goal exactly and what and so if 853 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 1: it really and that's I think that's what's so I 854 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,840 Speaker 1: think alarming, you know, is the energy, the mental energy 855 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,719 Speaker 1: spend that's going into saying things out loud. He's like, no, man, 856 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 1: we're watching a movie. This is all fake. Man, Like, 857 00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: that's a that should be a really scary place to 858 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 1: be more than thinking that Trump isn't the president, but okay, 859 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:15,240 Speaker 1: go on, damn. They need to believe that he's both 860 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,040 Speaker 1: like weak and sleep and doesn't know what's going on, 861 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 1: but also has like this elaborate conspiracy where he's pulled 862 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 1: the wool over everyone eyes and he's just pulling lever 863 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:27,719 Speaker 1: behind the scenes as the strang country. It's I mean, 864 00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:30,879 Speaker 1: I'm curious to just hear your thoughts on like as 865 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,400 Speaker 1: as somebody who is kind of part of the media, 866 00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 1: like where you think we're headed in terms of like 867 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:41,480 Speaker 1: Trump running again, and you know what what support for 868 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 1: him is gonna look like and you know what, what 869 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:48,840 Speaker 1: are the vibes within vie vive check, what do you 870 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 1: do you think? Like he he had that um rally 871 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,040 Speaker 1: over the weekend, but that like seems to indicate he's 872 00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 1: going to do it again. But like, how do you like, 873 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:02,160 Speaker 1: how are you thinking about it right now? I mean, yeah, anybody, 874 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 1: any reporter who was paying close attention to Trump during 875 00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:08,600 Speaker 1: his whole regime the last four years, it feels like 876 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 1: we haven't had a break yet, which is crazy. But 877 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 1: I mean it's obvious to anyone that he doesn't even 878 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 1: know what he's doing yet, and that right now he's 879 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: testing the water, so he's dropping a little couple of 880 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,279 Speaker 1: hints and seeing how people react. He's waiting for the 881 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 1: polling to get back in because he's so terrified of 882 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 1: the embarrassment of the humiliation of announcing that he's running 883 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: again and most people not getting getting behind him. You know, 884 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 1: he's not going to run unless he knows for sure 885 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: that every Republican congressman is not gonna either not going 886 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 1: to run against him or get steamrolled by him. He 887 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:42,200 Speaker 1: needs to know for sure before he risks his brand 888 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:45,080 Speaker 1: like that, and you know, that's kind of how he 889 00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:46,880 Speaker 1: was president. You know, it's it's hard for me to 890 00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:51,520 Speaker 1: believe that he had some big, mystifying plan and the 891 00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 1: whole thing was set up to push America in a 892 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: certain direction. He doesn't know, he doesn't know what he's doing, right. 893 00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:01,200 Speaker 1: He's shooting from the hip, trying to just see, like, 894 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,719 Speaker 1: what what's going to please the magaverse the most, what's 895 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,000 Speaker 1: going to make them the most engaged and the most 896 00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:10,239 Speaker 1: excited for the next election cycle or whatever. So that's 897 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:12,479 Speaker 1: that's what's going on right now in Marilago. He's sitting 898 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 1: around asking his yes men, is now the right time? 899 00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 1: Should I do it? What are people saying? How do 900 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 1: I How do I know for sure? Right? And I'm 901 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,719 Speaker 1: sure he's getting getting it from both sides. There's that 902 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: poll that came out that showed that only of Republicans 903 00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 1: want Trump to run. So who knows how that poll 904 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,479 Speaker 1: is going to change between now and it becomes time 905 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 1: for him to announce, or what if that time is 906 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,880 Speaker 1: going to happen, Because say that number goes down, that 907 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 1: could probably indicate to us that it's not going to happen. 908 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 1: The number goes up, I think it's gonna indicate that 909 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,200 Speaker 1: he will. So that's that's where he's at. But on 910 00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 1: the other hand, you know, I think he wants to 911 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,800 Speaker 1: run mostly because he's still trying to get on Twitter. 912 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:57,760 Speaker 1: He's still trying to have some sort of White House 913 00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,719 Speaker 1: prestige that he's holding onto. We saw that when he 914 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 1: was doing his like random press releases where he was 915 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: like typing in all caps. It's still him wanting to 916 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,360 Speaker 1: be president. He wants people to care about what he thinks, 917 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:11,440 Speaker 1: in the same way that Tucker Carlson wants people to 918 00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,240 Speaker 1: care about what he thinks. It's it's crazy, it almost 919 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 1: He should honestly just disappear and be glad that he 920 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 1: had to run, and who knows, if he's disappears forever, 921 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 1: his reputation might improve based on how bad people think 922 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:28,200 Speaker 1: of a job that Joe Biden is doing, or whoever's 923 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 1: gonna come next, maybe it's the Santists or whoever. You know. 924 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 1: It rehabilitated George Bush's reputation. So my take is this, 925 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,920 Speaker 1: he should disappear. He won't because he needs people to 926 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 1: know what he's up to and he needs them to 927 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:43,839 Speaker 1: think that he's got a plan when he doesn't. I 928 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:46,680 Speaker 1: feel like his kind of disappearance to this point has 929 00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:49,759 Speaker 1: been helpful to him because those numbers that you know, 930 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 1: support him running again, Like I think it's two thirds 931 00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 1: of Republicans think he should like be involved like heavily 932 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: and the future of the party, and like that's up 933 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 1: I think from January six. So it's like moving in 934 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:11,560 Speaker 1: the right direction for him with with him being artificially silenced, 935 00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:15,000 Speaker 1: and it'll be interesting like once he was able to 936 00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 1: figure out how to start spouting off again. To January 937 00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,799 Speaker 1: six is the perfect indicator for this man, because when 938 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: January six happened, there was this sweep of consciousness that 939 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 1: it was just running wild through the Republican Party. Then 940 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:33,359 Speaker 1: you had loyalists like Nicki Haley saying we've gone too 941 00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 1: far and we need to reel it back. But just 942 00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 1: this week she was on TV saying that January six 943 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 1: didn't happen and that racism doesn't exist in this country. 944 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 1: And so the more time we we have between like 945 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 1: January six and the Trump presidency, now, I think the 946 00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:55,239 Speaker 1: MAGA versus going to romanticize how good they had it 947 00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 1: when Trump was running, even though they had the all 948 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,440 Speaker 1: three branches of the government, but still weren't able to 949 00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:05,320 Speaker 1: do anything because they don't really have a plan. But 950 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,879 Speaker 1: they're still going to romanticize it and think, well, Dan, 951 00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:10,320 Speaker 1: we had everything, the country was on track, the economy 952 00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 1: was booming, and then as soon as they're the Democrats 953 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:14,880 Speaker 1: took over, it all went to ship. So they're going 954 00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:19,240 Speaker 1: to tell themselves what they need to to imagine. Trump 955 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,319 Speaker 1: is like this hero and you know, you ever see 956 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 1: like the Trump flags of him, his Rambo and he's 957 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:26,759 Speaker 1: like rams and stuff like that's going to become That's 958 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 1: that's gonna be what they remember of Trump. So yeah, 959 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: if he stays quiet as a problem when you but 960 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:35,399 Speaker 1: when I look at the polling, right almost a third day, 961 00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:39,560 Speaker 1: he should not remain a major political figure right among Republicans, 962 00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 1: and twenty two percent said they would support another presidential 963 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,960 Speaker 1: candidate that shared his values. To me, I see more 964 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 1: of like a schism there where I think the people 965 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 1: who are like like newly minted conservative wonks, I guess 966 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:55,880 Speaker 1: think like, no, man, like we're not going to be 967 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,359 Speaker 1: able to win with Trump, Like that's clear, like if 968 00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,200 Speaker 1: we really want to go full steam with this like 969 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:04,520 Speaker 1: fascist ethno nationalist agenda, then it has to be someone else, 970 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 1: and it seems like if that's people's aims, there's on 971 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:10,840 Speaker 1: some level they understand that it energizes people to be 972 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 1: against Trump. So if they're thinking about it that way, 973 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,680 Speaker 1: it's like, we like someone with the same fucked up 974 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:19,960 Speaker 1: core beliefs, just not that brand because that's going to 975 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:23,120 Speaker 1: be harder to win. But then you know, there's also 976 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:27,399 Speaker 1: a lot of like operatives and people that he consults with. 977 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 1: Apparently the reporting is that like many of them are saying, 978 00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:33,880 Speaker 1: wait till after the fucking mid terms, because the second 979 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 1: you start going out there saying like I'm gonna run 980 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 1: and ship, it may funk up everything. And they're definitely 981 00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 1: people who believe that. So, I mean, on some level 982 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,719 Speaker 1: there's is like this sort of half reckoning with trying 983 00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:50,799 Speaker 1: to understand like from a purely electoral strategical standpoint, what 984 00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 1: does it mean to have Trump anywhere near an election? 985 00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 1: But then they're clearly there's who are watching a movie 986 00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:03,279 Speaker 1: right now? Did in I hope he's shook enough by 987 00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 1: the people who boot him forgetting the vaccine that he 988 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 1: just like loses it like Chappelle and like just can't 989 00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 1: focus on anything else. But like the people who disagree 990 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:16,120 Speaker 1: with him and like his starts, uh you know, focusing 991 00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 1: on that is that even the maga people like like 992 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,919 Speaker 1: old Chappell faars like damn he used to have it man, right, Yeah, yeah, 993 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:25,480 Speaker 1: he just won't stop talking about this fucking this election 994 00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 1: and just focuses only on like the one piece of 995 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:32,239 Speaker 1: negative feedback that he's gotten in ten years, and like 996 00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,480 Speaker 1: that becomes all he talks about. Or however he just 997 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:39,279 Speaker 1: loses whatever confidence and like pocket he was in with 998 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:41,759 Speaker 1: the mega thing. But I think, like anything, if like that, 999 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,399 Speaker 1: you're gonna kick, You're gonna purge those people who are 1000 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 1: making you feel those icky things. Yeah, yeah, you know, yeah, 1001 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:50,440 Speaker 1: I just really want Trump Junior to run so just 1002 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,480 Speaker 1: so we can watch him do this whole campaign and 1003 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:57,440 Speaker 1: not get his own dad's endorsement. He really wouldn't. He 1004 00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 1: fucking wouldn't completely fun sit up for him, Like I'll 1005 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:04,480 Speaker 1: be honest. I mean, he's he's completely unproven. He's he's 1006 00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:09,600 Speaker 1: an amateur. He's a lightweight, so weight, total lightweight, that 1007 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:14,359 Speaker 1: kid u puny stick arms. I asked him to roll 1008 00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:16,399 Speaker 1: up his sleeves next time you see him. Check out 1009 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:21,239 Speaker 1: his dry step definition nothing nothing, no Christmas hands, scantist 1010 00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:26,160 Speaker 1: horseshoes back there, big old horseshoes. All right, let's talk 1011 00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:31,440 Speaker 1: really briefly about deep fakes. Justin Bieber was folwed by 1012 00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:34,799 Speaker 1: a Tom Cruise deep fake. I know this isn't like 1013 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:39,160 Speaker 1: the CIA being full Beaver is not error sharpest celebrity, 1014 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 1: but Canada ry American North America's sharpest celebrity. But I 1015 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:50,320 Speaker 1: find it's still interesting because it's someone who wields immense 1016 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 1: power online like fold for multiple hours, even created a 1017 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 1: video so it was like a video of Tom Cruise, 1018 00:56:57,120 --> 00:57:00,080 Speaker 1: like playing the guitar Tom Cruise from like twenty years go, 1019 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 1: because he looked like way younger than he does now, 1020 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:05,759 Speaker 1: and it was very convincing, and people was like, whoa, 1021 00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:09,560 Speaker 1: you're shredding, but like I still can. Apparently he's like 1022 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:12,480 Speaker 1: offered to fight Tom Creu like box Tom Cruise, so 1023 00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 1: like there was some of that. He became a thing. 1024 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:18,240 Speaker 1: And then people are like, hey man, that's that's that's 1025 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:21,640 Speaker 1: from an account called deep Tom Cruise. Like you it's 1026 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,600 Speaker 1: a deep think, but you know, sixty Minutes did a 1027 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 1: report yesterday where they like it was about this. It 1028 00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 1: talked to a bunch of experts who are like, this 1029 00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 1: is going to be the biggest story of the next 1030 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,840 Speaker 1: like ten years it when it comes to media. And 1031 00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:40,640 Speaker 1: it wasn't like somebody who just invented like a new 1032 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:43,080 Speaker 1: technology trying to like boost there. It was just like 1033 00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 1: somebody who pays attention to disinformation for a living. But 1034 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:50,240 Speaker 1: the things sixty Minutes did with it was they d 1035 00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:53,440 Speaker 1: aged the reporter by thirty years, which is like a 1036 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 1: suspiciously cool thing for the reporter using this like cutting 1037 00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 1: edge technology to make him like look more fun.
