And it's especially the fourth 111 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 1: hour of the Today Show. It's a middle aged white 112 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: lady and she was I guess which By the way, 113 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: she does have a medicinal marijuana company.

R I 119 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: P Kitty, you're one of the greats. Yeah, I was 120 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: going to say one of the one of the organizations 121 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: actually said that they're no longer going to sell her products. 122 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: I did see that tweeting that, um, there's all sorts 123 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: of great meme memory going around. Danny, you you posted 124 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: a great meme. Yeah, it's of these two little white 125 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: kids selling lemonade. And then I forgot what this guy's 126 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: original meme is from, but he's basically calling the cops 127 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: on them, and it says me all summer long. And 128 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: then another one by j O A which says white 129 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: folks call nine one one like its customer service. Yep, 130 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: it's really, I mean yeah, And and the obviously the 131 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: darker side of this is like we've seen police murder 132 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: children because they called nine one like some white person called, 133 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: and so like this a little bit is like at 134 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: the level, I guess it's not exactly the same thing, 135 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: but this needs to start becoming in a conversation on 136 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: the on par with like swatting, like calling cops on 137 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: black people is adjacent to attempted murder, Like you be 138 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: be ready, be like understand the consequences when you do 139 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: ship like this. I don't know, somebody or some somebody's 140 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: got charged with manslaughter for swatting somebody, probably, I hope. 141 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: So if if a story like this results in somebody 142 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 1: being harmed that that should at least be possible be 143 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: something that you could prosecute somebody for. The little girl 144 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: was actually her mom. U had recently lost her job 145 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 1: and she was selling water to help get a trip 146 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,319 Speaker 1: to Disneyland, which then for a stranger bought them tickets 147 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: to Disneyland after seeing this without a permit. How many 148 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 1: times do I have to say that?

Oh, 152 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: but it's super important that you get a permit from 153 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: the government to sell water, right right? Yeah, So are 154 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: you saying that the right is not ideologically coherent?

And actually Fox and Friends 165 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: this morning reported on this, and I just I really 166 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 1: like the direction that one of the hosts takes this segment. 167 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: This could backfire on Democrats if they keep it up, 168 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: and it can incite violence eventually, if someone is exactly, 169 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 1: if someone approaches your family, you're gonna want to defend yourself. 170 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 1: If they're yelling nasty comments to you about your politics 171 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,959 Speaker 1: in front of your kids, it's humilius. So she's not. 172 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: She's not somebody that they're going to shoot. The Conservatives 173 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: will kill the people protesting them, not not that like 174 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: they're I think they probably had this on the teleprompter 175 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: as talk about the risk of violence, and she was like, yeah, well, 176 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: I mean we might shoot them because we are armed, 177 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: very clearly and we're going to murder them. Uh. So 178 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: that's awesome. But this seems to have started the debate 179 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: the the idea of like people on the left protesting 180 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: powerful people on the right in their private lives. There 181 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 1: have been a couple instances, uh that have popped up 182 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: of you know, people on the right accosting people on 183 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 1: the left that aren't necessarily people of power. There. There 184 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: was a video yesterday where a Mexican gentleman was doing 185 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: yard work and a woman walked up to him and 186 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: just like gave him the finger, and he said, why 187 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: do you hate us? And she said because your Mexicans 188 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: And he said, we were honest people right here, and 189 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: she said, hah yeah, rapists and animals. Uh. And this 190 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: is on the heels of that one woman calling the 191 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: police on a ten year old black girl for selling 192 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: water on the street because she didn't have a permit 193 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: to be selling water. I don't know, it's it's just 194 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: funny to me that we've started this quote like debate 195 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: around civility and it's all centers around you know, how 196 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: the left is treating uh, you know, Stephen Miller in 197 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 1: his private life, as opposed to you know, how right 198 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: wing people and Trump supporters are treating you know, normal, 199 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: not powerful left wing people, were not even left wing people, 200 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: just people like just people being cranky that people are 201 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: exercising their right to protests. I find it very annoying 202 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 1: that people are exercising their rights in my direction. That's 203 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 1: actually very unchill and we should have a fascist government. Okay, 204 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: that's what you're asking. I just hate the false equivalence 205 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: of I mean, everybody who is complaining about throwing Sara 206 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: Sanders out of that restaurant is like, well, uh, my 207 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 1: friend can't has to bake cakes for the gays. You 208 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: guys have to serve her. Uh. And it's such like 209 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: so so dumb. You can't have somebody who's outside yelling 210 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 1: and berating people in the rest run and then come 211 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: in and be like, yeah, we're gonna serve you, right, Yeah, 212 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,439 Speaker 1: And I mean I don't know, she's a pretty awful person. 213 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 1: It's restaurants are like well within their rights to like 214 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,439 Speaker 1: it's just refused service to an individual person. Yeah. I 215 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: think point someone pointed out, like it's totally legal if 216 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: there's if somebody comes into your restaurant and they were 217 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: like a bully to you in high school, it's totally 218 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: okay for you to be like, no, fuck you, I 219 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: don't like you personally, and therefore you can't eat at 220 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: my restaurant. Because she was, right, because she was need 221 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: this woman, right, they didn't serve it because she was 222 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: She's not a nice person, right, she's a bad person. 223 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: So guys, big big news. Trump's travel band has been 224 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: upheld in a five four decision. Oh with that Supreme 225 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: Court that he stole. Yea, yeah, yeah, so yeah, this 226 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 1: is a five four decision that would have definitely gone 227 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: the other way with the Obama nominee with Garland, but 228 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: instead we have a Gorsuch and uh, it went the 229 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: direction of the Conservatives. I don't know. This made me 230 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 1: think of the fact that Republicans are better at this 231 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: than progressives are. They're like, I don't know, they did 232 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: an unprecedented thing to steal the Supreme Court nominee, but 233 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: it was it turns out it's legal, and that's where 234 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: we are. The Republicans know they have to do whatever 235 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: they're legally permitted to do in order to protect and 236 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: like advance their ideology. And they're wrong, and the vast 237 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: majority of the world, uh, and even most people in 238 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: America know they're wrong. So they have to like use 239 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: tricks and like underdog strategies to win. Like they have to, 240 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: you know, find loopholes and you know, to think outside 241 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: the box. A real case against asking for forgiveness instead 242 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: of permit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Malcolm Gladwell wrote this book, 243 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: David First Goliath, where he talked about like all these 244 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: underdog strategies and like how if you have like a 245 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: basketball team that's less talented than the other teams, if 246 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: you do this like one strategy of just doing a 247 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: full court press, you can usually like do much better 248 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: than your talent would suggest. And he also like looked 249 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: at insurgent warfare and like, how, you know, the North 250 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: Vietnamese defeated the vastly more powerful US army, and the 251 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: US Army had them beaten like all the things that 252 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: warfare is supposed to be about, weapons, manpower, technology, spending, 253 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: but like they were able to just you know, out 254 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: scrap them. And I feel like it's a similar case 255 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: with conservatives verse progressive. Like progressives have Republicans beaten every 256 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: category that should matter in politics. They have uh their 257 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: right and people know they're right for the most part. 258 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: Like America is way more conservative than the rest of 259 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: the world because science and reason are the dominant values 260 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: in the modern world, and reason and science support progressive values. 261 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: The left has like a media that knows their right. 262 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: The truth sort of has a liberal progressive bias. Their 263 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: core ideology is helping others in like a Christian nation. Demographically, 264 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: they already win the popular vote and things are trending 265 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: more in their direction. Like Republicans have a shitty hand, 266 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: but they know they have a shitty hand, and they 267 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: they focus on ways of using like loopholes and brutality. 268 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: They're just shameless, I feel like, and they're using a 269 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: mighty ducks strategy to are the ducks politics. Yeah, this 270 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: is a little big league. Yeah, And I feel like 271 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: I feel like Democrats assume, and this is what I 272 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: had kind of assumed that because progressive values are right, 273 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: that they'll win out in the end. Like the whole 274 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: when they go low, we go high sort of has 275 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: an implication that it's just being right will self evidently 276 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: win out in the end. And I feel like that's 277 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 1: not necessarily the case. Like you have to play the 278 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: game and like play it ruthlessly in order to you know, 279 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:23,239 Speaker 1: beat these people who are fucking brutal and just like 280 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: finding every single loophole to steal decisions and steal and 281 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't matter how they're doing it, because 282 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: they are affecting people's lives. Elizabeth Warren needs to watch 283 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: the wire, yeah, or Game of Thrones something where like 284 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: I feel like Game of Thrones is the way because 285 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: Game of Thrones. So Game of Thrones was I think, 286 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: you know, there would be these moments in Game of 287 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: Thrones where the whole world will be like, oh no, 288 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: what happened. And it's because it was like the first 289 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: show that was like okay, So here's where the narrative 290 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: conventions would lead. This handsome underdog would defeat the giant 291 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: like monstrous guy. He's fighting in battle because he has 292 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: truth and justice on his side and he's like the 293 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:13,400 Speaker 1: more fun progressive guy and that guy's head gets squashed 294 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,880 Speaker 1: like a grape. Because it's based more on like how 295 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: history works, and the way history works is that the 296 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 1: people who are willing to use violence and you know, 297 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 1: just you know, kick dirt, yeah, and dragons, like, as 298 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: we all know, people who are willing to use dragons 299 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: tend to win out in history. And this is a 300 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: gibberish to me. I'm not a dweeb who watches game. However, Yeah, 301 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 1: I love this, especially because this Supreme Court decision happened today, 302 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 1: like on the day of primary elections in New York. 303 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 1: It's just such a slap in the face of like, well, yeah, 304 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: enjoy voting. Everyone should absolutely vote, but your vote doesn't 305 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: really matter and people can steal stuff from you anyways 306 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: regardless of what you think, and how like civically engage 307 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: h D are just depressing. Yeah, but I mean it 308 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: should matter. I feel like the people who progress a 309 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: just vote for should be better at their job and 310 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 1: like realize that they're playing a different game. They still 311 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 1: believe in civility, and you know, the right is out here. 312 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: They're just like, no, we're not going to let you 313 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: do the thing that it seems like all indications would 314 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: be that you should be allowed to nominate a Supreme 315 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,959 Speaker 1: Court justice. But we're just not going to do that, 316 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 1: even though it's historically unprecedented. It is crazy. And yeah, 317 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: it does feel like their sense the lefts of the 318 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:40,239 Speaker 1: political representatives of the left all are uh there. They 319 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: are acting like they can't be wrong in the end, 320 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 1: that somehow this is all going to work out for them. 321 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: To this point that like their sense of how to 322 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 1: fight for anything is atrophied. They're so bad at countering 323 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: things that are so clearly bad. Trump couldn't paint bigger 324 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: targets on the things that he's doing, and instead they're like, well, 325 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: let's see what is the rich person care about Kathy Griffin. 326 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: Let's go defend her. Right, Yeah, you're missing the well. 327 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: And he's also good at like figuring out what people 328 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 1: care about and just being realizing people care about you know, 329 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 1: little fucking reality TV wars and ship like that that 330 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: he can. You know, he's running the presidency like a 331 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: reality TV I think, yeah, the average person, the sense 332 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: of civility that we even have among average citizens United States, 333 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: whether we're acknowledging it or not, the president does exemplify 334 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 1: what the civility is of the people, and he's the 335 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: least civil person and everyone else is just acting in 336 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 1: accordance to that. He says terrible things about other human 337 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,479 Speaker 1: beings on Twitter all the time, and everybody was like, oh, 338 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 1: that's how we're talking now, all right, cool? Right, Like 339 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 1: do you guys feel do you ever just think, okay, well, 340 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 1: history will prove us right, Like I sometimes I think 341 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: that about the Trump administration. I'm just like, yeah, but 342 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: that doesn't doesn't help anybody to think that way, Like 343 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 1: history vindicating you doesn't help anyone. And that's just like 344 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 1: the version of history that we've been given, which is 345 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 1: written by the mostly the bad people anyway, So it's 346 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: just like I I don't know, but we don't know 347 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:18,479 Speaker 1: who's been like buried by time's uh good guys losing, 348 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: We're doomed. All right, We're going to take a quick 349 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: break and we'll be right back, and we're back. So 350 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: we wanted to take a look at the whole immigration 351 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: debate has kind of talked around the story of where 352 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: some of these folks are coming from, because you know, 353 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: I think there's been stories about how a lot of 354 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: them are having to cross the entire country of Mexico 355 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: and how that's gotten more and more treacherous as Mexico 356 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: has kind of got deadlier and deadlier. And so we 357 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: had had one of our writers, Sam Rabmin, kind of 358 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: take a look at where most of the people who 359 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 1: are being detained are coming from. And so it used 360 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 1: to be like pent of the people crossing the Mexican 361 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: border where just originally from Mexico, and that wasn't very 362 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: long ago at all. That was like within the last 363 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:24,640 Speaker 1: ten years. But now it's fifty percent people from Central 364 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: America like El Salvador and Honduras and Guatemala, of the 365 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 1: people are coming across the border from there, And a 366 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,959 Speaker 1: big part of it is that during the Obama administration, 367 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 1: there was you know, people talk about how Obama deported 368 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: more people than any administration in the history of the world. 369 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 1: And his administration was deporting like people who had committed crimes, 370 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: but he was deporting them back to their home countries. 371 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: And when he deported all those people back to their 372 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: home country who were criminals, like, those countries got really, 373 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: really bad. And so now you have basically this chain 374 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:12,400 Speaker 1: reaction of the people who aren't you know, horrible criminals 375 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,160 Speaker 1: who weren't just reported there and now fleeing the countries 376 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: because the criminals. Right. So on the one hand, it's 377 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: like not a bad exchange. You know, we're sending them 378 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: the people who have all committed like felonies and murders, 379 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: and we're getting the people who are like the fuck, 380 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 1: but they're really coming from horrifying ship like El Salvador 381 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: became the world's most violent country not at war in 382 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: two thousand fifteen, when gang related violence brought its homicide 383 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: rate to one and three per hundred thousand. In the US, 384 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: it's five point four per one thousand people and a 385 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: lot of the times people who are fleeing and are 386 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: like I'm seeing asylum, I'm in a lot of trouble 387 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 1: back there, please let me stay in America. When the 388 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,639 Speaker 1: United States is like, we don't believe that you're in 389 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: that much trouble and send them back, they do get murdered. 390 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: There's like all sorts of cases of I think the 391 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 1: Columbia School of Journalism identified sixty cases of immigrants deported 392 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: back to their country who were then killed or harmed 393 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,719 Speaker 1: in the way that they were specifically asking to like 394 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,360 Speaker 1: trying to escape. It's nuts that we're keeping better track 395 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 1: of the people we sent back than the kids we 396 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: have here, right, Yeah, So that's that's the other thing 397 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: is there's not really a system to reunite parents and 398 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 1: kids because they just weren't paying that much attention in 399 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: the first place, because it was just a half past 400 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: uh decision that was like yeah, we'll show them. Yeah. 401 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: So also a bummer boy, Yeah, this this podcast is fun. 402 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, am I right? Yeah? But I mean so 403 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: there there's one story of this guy, Constantino Morales, who 404 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: was shy and killed back in Mexico. He was a 405 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 1: former police officer in Mexico who publicly stood up against 406 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: drug trafficking, and like you know, cartels kept trying to 407 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 1: kill him. So he came to the US in search 408 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: of asylum. Uh, and he got pulled over for a 409 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: traffic violation and was found to not have a driver's license, 410 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: which I know people who drive without a driver's license. 411 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 1: They are some of my favorite people drive without a 412 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 1: driver's license. And he was sent back to Mexico for 413 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: a traffic offense essentially and was shot and killed. So man, yeah, 414 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: he was basically given a death sentence for a traffic violation. So, 415 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: I mean, the reason that these countries are in such 416 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: bad shave in the first place is US has a 417 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: pretty heavy hand in a lot of that too. El Salvador, 418 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: all those Central American countries. We that's how we get 419 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: our cheaper nanas and coffee. Man, is that we we 420 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 1: overthrew power so that we could get cheaper food from there, 421 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: and we're like, we'd prefer your government be this instead, 422 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: and it's still having these last and awful effects. And 423 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: then also the drug trade, the drug trade, there's a 424 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: reason it's all moving north. We're all doing drugs here, 425 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: like we want those drugs, and drugs are great, and 426 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: they wouldn't We wouldn't have those. All this stuff wasn't 427 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: going on if everyone in the United States is just 428 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: like you know, either we make drugs legal or we 429 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: just everyone has got to stop doing drugs, so everyboy 430 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: stops getting killed in these Central American countries? Can we 431 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: all agree to stop doing drugs? Guys right getting getting 432 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 1: a resounding no. Yeah, I've been outed as an unlicensed driver. Yeah, 433 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: I'm keeping a list of Jamie Jamie loft Is things. 434 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 1: This Game of Thrones loves drugs. Us does not drive 435 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: with the license. I did not out you. I said 436 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: some of my favorite people I wasn't even talking about. 437 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: Turned myself into the cops on the air. Um and 438 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 1: it's already threatened to arrest me on three different post it's. 439 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, super producer on Josie has been sliding post 440 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: it notes across the table. Been on this sting for 441 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: over five years. Almost has enough, you, guys. Justice Kennedy 442 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: is retiring. He's long been thought of as the swing vote. 443 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: Whenever the liberal side of the court wins a decision, 444 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: it's usually because Kennedy has come over. He is going 445 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,479 Speaker 1: to retire in July, and so there will be an 446 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: open seat for Trump to fill. Uh and that's very 447 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: bad news because the Supreme Court has already been showing 448 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: a tendency towards you know, right wing being right wing 449 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 1: idealogues in the past few days. Really, So here's my 450 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 1: question about this. Why isn't there a fail safe for this? Why? 451 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: I don't because this has been the system for hundreds 452 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: of years, right that the presidents put in Supreme Court judges. 453 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: Is it just like, oh well, it'll be like fucked 454 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: for fifty years until the next person dies, or is 455 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: there like some way to because it does It does 456 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 1: seem crazy that now it's just a majority of people 457 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,719 Speaker 1: who always vote the exact same way. You can kind 458 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: of like just not bother bringing it to the Supreme 459 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: Court because you know which way they're going to vote, 460 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: because they're just right wing weirdos. Uh. So, one thing 461 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: that has been thrown around, and I think FDR either 462 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: did it or was talking about doing it, was he 463 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: had a similar issue where the court was sucking things 464 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: up and holding back progress in America and he was 465 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: going to just start nominating additional justices sort of flood 466 00:28:55,800 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 1: the Court with uh more justices, because there's nothing in 467 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: the law that says you can do nine. Yeah, so 468 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: you he can technically do that or she whoever ends 469 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: up being the president after Trump you mean Trump? Yeah, boy, so, 470 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: I mean this comes on the heels of the Supreme 471 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: Court upholding Trump's travel ban, which the minority decision. So 472 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: do my oor said, is, you know, put in the 473 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: same tradition as the Supreme Court decision that upheld internment 474 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: camps for Japanese people during World War Two. Like, that's 475 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: that's not some left wing rag that is making that comparison. 476 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: That is a Supreme Court justice in the minority decision, 477 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: you know. But then to rub her nose in it, 478 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: they like where it went and like reverse that right 479 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 1: the next day, right, they said in the majority decision, 480 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: they were like, and this has nothing to do with that. 481 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: And in fact, that was a bad decision. We're officially 482 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: coming out of saying that that's a bad decision just 483 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: in time. Yes, So I don't know that. You know, 484 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: this is going to be an ongoing story, one of 485 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: the main ongoing stories for the next couple of months. Uh. 486 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court also decided today to fuck unions over 487 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:20,239 Speaker 1: because they're way too strong in America. Uh so, uh 488 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 1: they they can no longer compel federal employees to pay 489 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: dues into unions, which is going to make unions way poorer. 490 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: So it's an already right wing Supreme Court. Kennedy has 491 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: been on the conservative side. He's been on the majority 492 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: side for these past handful of decisions that have gone conservatives. 493 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: So it's not like he's a reliable liberal vote. But 494 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: he has been a reliable champion of women's reproductive rights. 495 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: He has been a champion of gay rights. Um. So 496 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 1: those are two, you know, incredibly important places where we 497 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: could see things backslide a little bit if everything goes 498 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: according to the horrible fucking plan that the right wing 499 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: will kind of try to hatch here. So, so, does 500 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: that mean that I'll have to pay my sag dues anymore? 501 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: That's a good question. I think that's what it means. 502 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: It could be, or it means that they can't kick 503 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: me out if I don't pay, right, maybe we got 504 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: to get to the bottom of the skirt if Kurt 505 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 1: needs to pay its sag union. Dudes. The first story 506 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: we wanted to talk about is this rolling stone profile 507 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: of one Mr Johnny Depp. It is ten thou words 508 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: on Johnny Depp. And if you could have come up 509 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 1: with a description of an article that I wouldn't want 510 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: to read, that is it. Ten words on Johnny Depth. 511 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: Rolling Stone is notably way more fascinated by Johnny Depth 512 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: than I am. They have had him on their cover 513 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: five times, which is shocking to me because I don't 514 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: know he's an actor and their music magazine, but I 515 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: guess like they always identified him as like bad boy, 516 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: outlaw sort of actor. So they sent a writer who 517 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: did a wonderful job to hang out with him for 518 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: like five days at his at this giant mansion that 519 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 1: he was renting in London, and it is just one 520 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 1: of the darkest profiles of any human being. Like you've 521 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: probably seen photos of him, uh lately, looking like he's 522 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 1: been poisoned by plutonium. Like his face is kind of 523 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: degrading a little bit. It's weird to see someone so 524 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: thin yet so puffy, right, Yeah, exactly, it's like a 525 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: it's like a skeleton was inflated. Yeah. I think that's 526 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 1: basically five years of untreated alcoholism. Because as you're reading 527 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: the Rolling Stone article, uh, like you may be interested 528 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: in this article pops up and it's like two thousand thirteen, 529 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: Johnny Depp, single, sober, and like he looks great. Yeah, 530 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: it's just like okay. And then in this article he's 531 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: talking about how people claimed that he was spending thirty 532 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: thousand dollars on wine a month and or three hundred 533 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 1: thousand maybe, and he was like, that's way too little. 534 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: I spend way more than that on wine. Uh So, 535 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: and he's just like staying up all night. He like 536 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: wakes up at like when the sun is setting and 537 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: like just stays up all night watching movies and cracking 538 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: up a bunch of yes men. Basically what we were 539 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: just talking about. Um, everything that you've just described up 540 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: and until this point is a description of a vampire. 541 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: And that's my new conspiracy theory, that Johnny Depp was 542 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: bitten by a vampire. Well that's his band, right, the 543 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: Hollywood Vampires. He is fully aware that that's what it 544 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: seems like that is the the That's the weird thing too, 545 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: where he he he drifts in and out of seeming 546 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: like he has self awareness in this And that's what 547 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: I think is the most interesting thing about reading that 548 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: because I read the whole thing too, and I was like, 549 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: this is like course, like one eighth of the way through. 550 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: I was like, this has got to be over soon. 551 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, I saw the little 552 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,360 Speaker 1: bar on the side. It's just a tiny speck in 553 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 1: the upper right hand corner. Uh. And So that's the 554 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: thing that's fascinating to me about it. It's like you 555 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 1: lose that outsider perspective. Also, what I wanted to know 556 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: is how did that writer is amazing, like did that 557 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,760 Speaker 1: writer do drugs? Because how is he staying up until 558 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: dawn eight am with this guy every night without doing drugs? 559 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 1: That's what I don't understand. I mean, he keeps talking 560 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 1: about how he's tired. That is a It's Steven Stephen Rodrick. 561 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: He does frequently. He's like and I was on the 562 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: verge of passing out sitting up. But like I had 563 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: to tell Johnny Depp finally that I had to leave him. 564 00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 1: But Johnny Depp is constantly just like making people hang 565 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 1: out with him and you know, telling bad jokes and 566 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 1: he like has this sense of humor that's really awful. 567 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: There's probably the most damning line. And the thing is 568 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: Roderick writes depth considers himself a funny man, and then 569 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: like one of his jokes is, h he's bragging that 570 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: he said dirty Sanchez in Pirates of the Caribbean and like, 571 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: but it was too real for Disney and they had 572 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:33,759 Speaker 1: to like cut it out and too dumb y. He 573 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: also like plays a Don Rickles joke from Sugar Ay 574 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:43,760 Speaker 1: Robinson's roast from the seventies that's like just openly racist 575 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: and he's like, man, that was ballsy. Huh uh yeah, man, 576 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: I guess um, but yeah, it's it's really I don't know, 577 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: like there hasn't been a great portrait of you know, 578 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 1: this sort of the logical extreme of sort of the 579 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 1: pathological narcissism that Hollywood sort of encourages and that you know, 580 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,240 Speaker 1: even just American culture, we all sort of worship fame 581 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 1: and like fame as a religion sort of thing. Uh, 582 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: there hasn't been a great portrait of what that looks 583 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 1: like when it's just uh totally running on empty, like 584 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: just completely fucked in a long time. Like it reminds 585 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,800 Speaker 1: you of like Sunset Boulevard a little bit, the old 586 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 1: movie where a writer like his car breaks down, like 587 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 1: next to the mansion of a silent film actress, like 588 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 1: thirty years after people stopped making silent films, and she's 589 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:46,439 Speaker 1: just like completely bonkers. That's where the line I'm ready 590 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 1: for my close up. Mr. Devellas from Grey Gardens h 591 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: is another example of just sort of opulence in decline, 592 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,840 Speaker 1: and this is I think one of one of the 593 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 1: great portraits that I've seen. What is interesting too, is 594 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: that he does have he has fourteen houses, and like 595 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 1: he has such money problems that he's like in this 596 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:15,320 Speaker 1: giant lawsuit with his old management company. But like, imagine 597 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 1: just selling one house of fourteen. How can you have 598 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: an emotional relationship with a fourteenth house? Do you know 599 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: what I mean? Like, it's like it's like it's like 600 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 1: having an emotional relationship with a hotel you stayed in 601 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: ten years ago, you know, just like, no, I can't 602 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: give up the experience of ever staying in that hotel. Agam. 603 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 1: I know it's my fourteenth most valuable house, but it'll 604 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 1: always be my ninth favorite. So it's like, well, okay, 605 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,359 Speaker 1: So there's a great line by Bono actually of all 606 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: people who says about fame, if you sit down to 607 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,959 Speaker 1: dinner and you realize that everybody who's there is being 608 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: paid by you, that you're probably an asshole. And there's 609 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: a moment towards the end of the r where the 610 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 1: writer goes, I want to go home, but feel reluctant 611 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 1: to leave. One of the most famous actors in the 612 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: world is now smoking dope with a writer and his lawyer. Well, 613 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,879 Speaker 1: his cook makes dinner, and his bodyguards watch television. There 614 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 1: is no one around him who isn't getting paid. Like 615 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,600 Speaker 1: that's that's just what his life is. Now. His best 616 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 1: friend and like it seems like his only friend is 617 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: his lawyer, who is like just you know, seeing him 618 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 1: through all these like financial lawsuits, and you know, he 619 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 1: he just hasn't paid attention to money at all ever, 620 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,439 Speaker 1: and is in all sorts of debt. And the only 621 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 1: weird thing is that they don't really focus on the 622 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 1: Amber heard thing. But I think it's probably because there's 623 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:45,360 Speaker 1: enough horror to go around without it um And I 624 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:49,320 Speaker 1: mean they mention it, but I think he's probably reluctant 625 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: to talk about it, But I mean that is sort 626 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 1: of an important background. All of this is just the 627 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 1: scenes from that marriage are like straight out of a 628 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 1: horror movie X up to like a really pathetic one. 629 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 1: There's one part where she talked about how he cut 630 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 1: off the tip of his finger and wrote easy Amber 631 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: on a mirror and blood and then wrote starring Billy 632 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: Bob Thornton because he thought Billy Bob Thornton had sex 633 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 1: with his wife. But it was like but like it's 634 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,839 Speaker 1: like easy Amber is such a seventh grade like so 635 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 1: it's like, dude, what is wrong? Um so, But also 636 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: that's what's interesting too that you learned through the article 637 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: is that the reason he it seems, the reason that 638 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:37,399 Speaker 1: he is in this um, like this specifically dark hole 639 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:41,399 Speaker 1: is because he lost like contact with his sister, who 640 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,319 Speaker 1: stopped talking to him when he wouldn't agree to do 641 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: a pre nup with Amber or heard right, And so 642 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: now that he doesn't have the person he grew up 643 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: with anymore, is when he really goes with this vampire 644 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: spire who managed all of his belongings. And yeah, yeah, 645 00:39:56,560 --> 00:40:01,280 Speaker 1: I mean it's literal, like vampire ism was originally seen 646 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 1: as like a metaphor for like capitalism, like sucking the 647 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 1: life force out of things, and like it really almost 648 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 1: is a actual living metaphor that in this article, Yeah, 649 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 1: but his sister like that that that's a really good 650 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: point that it was his sister who was running his 651 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 1: career prior to all of this ship going wrong for him. 652 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: All Right, so things are bad for Johnny Depp, but 653 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,360 Speaker 1: unfortunately for the rest of the world, everything's going great. Guys, 654 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 1: We're gonna take a quick break and then we'll be 655 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: right back with just terrible news and we're back. We 656 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 1: also want to talk about the lack of civility, the 657 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 1: uncivility war that's going on between the left and the 658 00:40:54,520 --> 00:41:00,800 Speaker 1: right right now. So the left has been accosting, uh, 659 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,800 Speaker 1: you know, the people of power in the Trump administration 660 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 1: at restaurants. They've been making Sarah Sanders get up in 661 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 1: the midst of her cheese plate and leave their restaurant. Uh. 662 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,800 Speaker 1: So you know, all at war has been declared. Um. 663 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:20,920 Speaker 1: And you know, there was a protest at Stephen Miller's 664 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: house yesterday or his apartment outside of his apartment and 665 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 1: they put up wanted posters. Uh. And actually Fox and 666 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: Friends this morning reported on this, and I just I 667 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 1: really like the direction that one of the hosts takes 668 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 1: this segment. This could backfire on democrats up and it 669 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: can incite violence. Eventually if someone is exactly, if someone 670 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: approaches your family, you're gonna want to defend yourself. If 671 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 1: they're yelling nasty comments to you about your politics in 672 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 1: front of your kids, it's humilious. So she's not. She's 673 00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: not somebody that they're going to shoot. The Conservatives will 674 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 1: kill the people protesting them, not not that like there. 675 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,799 Speaker 1: I think they probably had this on the teleprompter as 676 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,359 Speaker 1: talked about the risk of violence, and she was like, yeah, well, 677 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 1: I mean we might shoot them because we're armed very 678 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,439 Speaker 1: clearly and we're going to murder them. Let's talk about 679 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: big dick energy, guys. So this is something that was 680 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 1: uh in honor of Matt uh. You know, this is 681 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 1: something that when Jamie was guest hosting two episodes ago. Uh, 682 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:35,280 Speaker 1: this was just starting to make ripples around the web 683 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 1: because Ariana Grande uh said that her fiance Pete Davidson 684 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:46,879 Speaker 1: has big dick energy. And she said that ironically like 685 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 1: this is or maybe she said he had a ten 686 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 1: inch dick, and then people were like, he has he 687 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 1: has big dick energy, so it makes sense. Um, I 688 00:42:56,520 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: don't think. Yeah, So that's where I saw headline is 689 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 1: about like he's so big and she's so small, and 690 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 1: I thought it was purely stature. I had no idea 691 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 1: that's what people were talking. Well, yeah, I mean there's 692 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 1: that too. That Yeah, it doesn't seem the lore surrounding 693 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 1: this term has evolved quite a bit in the past 694 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: forty eight hours, Like there's now there's now a whole 695 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 1: uh like fink tank consisting of me and Jack. Yes, 696 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,719 Speaker 1: constitutes energy. Yeah. So we spent all morning that we 697 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 1: should have been preparing and doing research on the talking 698 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: about who qualifies as having big dick energy, because I 699 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: think that's probably the best way, uh to figure out 700 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 1: what big dick energy is, is by interrogating actual people 701 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 1: and they're you know, possession of it or not. So 702 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:50,400 Speaker 1: we talked about three of the last four presidents, Bill Clinton, Obama, 703 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: and Trump. Jamie, You and I were saying Obama and 704 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:58,879 Speaker 1: Trump both give off big dick energy, which proves which, well, 705 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: big dick energy isn't necessarily a good thing, which is 706 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:07,759 Speaker 1: I think misconception. Maybe explain it to me so well, 707 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,040 Speaker 1: BT is just all confidence. It's all confidence, and sometimes 708 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,960 Speaker 1: like unjustified confidence, sometimes the confidence can be unjustified. But 709 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 1: like with Obama, it's like his he's like beyond confident, 710 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,840 Speaker 1: like even though he you know, deserves to be confident. 711 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 1: He's like incredibly smooth and like just carries himself like 712 00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 1: he has a huge dick Trump like just you wouldn't 713 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: he He has this unnecessary or like undeserved confidence about 714 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 1: him that's like it's got to be coming from somewhere. 715 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 1: Well it's but it's not an overcome. It's kind of 716 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 1: that dumb guy I don't know, like Bill Clinton haveless. 717 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton is very confident, but I don't think he 718 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 1: has big dick energy. I think he has like mediums 719 00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: dick energy. I agree. And it's also like you can 720 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 1: have big dick energy and then also physically have like 721 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: a withered chude like the current president. Right. So it's 722 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 1: a vibe, it's not a description there. And and the 723 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 1: yardstick that I've been using is, Okay, if you have 724 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:18,680 Speaker 1: big dick energy, if when people meet you they think that, 725 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 1: how does that work? If people are like, oh, I 726 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 1: thought you were going to be taller. If if people 727 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 1: think you're gonna be taller, you have big dick energy 728 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: because you carry yourself like a bigger presence. Right, if 729 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 1: you're me and you're six ft tall, and everyone's like, 730 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 1: she's no way, she's taller than five seven. You got 731 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 1: no dick energy? Do you? Completely less? Jamie Fox is 732 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: has huge dick energy. We decided this morning. Jamie Fox 733 00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:47,920 Speaker 1: is a very small man, but you would exactly, but 734 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,359 Speaker 1: you would never expect him to be as small as 735 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 1: he is because of the way he carries himself and 736 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:56,280 Speaker 1: he just has a certain swagger. But we were saying 737 00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 1: Will Smith does not have big dick energy, even though he's, 738 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,319 Speaker 1: you know, a very talented actor, he just doesn't have 739 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:08,399 Speaker 1: We were talking about Drake versus Kendrick. Now this was controversial. 740 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:12,880 Speaker 1: I said Drake has big dick energy because so I 741 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 1: think Drake's uh, sort of self conflicted, sort of lack 742 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 1: of confidence is actually something he puts on like he 743 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:25,960 Speaker 1: projects vulnerability and like an actor would project vulnerability, and 744 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 1: the fact that he needs to pretend to feel vulnerable 745 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 1: suggests that he has big dick energy. I think he's 746 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 1: Canadian and a former child star, and both of those 747 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 1: don't bow well for big dick energy. Yeah, but Haley Joels, 748 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 1: So this is the thing though energy can't yeah, for sure, 749 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: but can't the fact that he's working against those two handicaps, 750 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 1: child actor and a Canadian, and yet has gotten where 751 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 1: he's going. Wouldn't that suggest that he's being carried forth 752 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:56,480 Speaker 1: by some ineffable energy. There's a way to control test 753 00:46:56,520 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 1: this with Atlantis morrisset How what would you consider Atlantis 754 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:03,439 Speaker 1: Morris saying, I don't think she's big Dick. I don't 755 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 1: think so. I don't think. Maybe there you go, But 756 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 1: I mean it is a compliment in that way. It's confusing. Yeah, 757 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 1: I'm a little confused over analyzing big Dick energy is 758 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,799 Speaker 1: not big Dick energy. However, you coming in today, Matt 759 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:21,399 Speaker 1: not knowing what big energy? But now that I know, 760 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,879 Speaker 1: have I lost? I am? I don't have big dig 761 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:29,440 Speaker 1: energy and Dick boy, what a What is like sad 762 00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:33,279 Speaker 1: paradox that you can't once you become self aware, you 763 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 1: lose big dig energy. I think most rock band lead 764 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 1: singers have big Dick energy. It's almost like a unwarranted confidence, 765 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:41,919 Speaker 1: is how I think about it. Like we're talking about 766 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 1: Pete Davidson kind of being the perfect person for this 767 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 1: coalesced round because he even though he's very funny, Like 768 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:50,120 Speaker 1: in conversations Jamie, you were saying he was like really 769 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 1: funny on a talk show the other night, because peek, 770 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 1: big Dick energy is Pete Davidson going on a talk 771 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 1: show next sitting next to Robert Attinson and instead of 772 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 1: promoting his own movie, showing a clip from Robert Pattinson's 773 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 1: last movie. Right, And so he's not like, even though 774 00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:11,799 Speaker 1: he's funny, he's not like very talent forward, but he 775 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,720 Speaker 1: like carries himself in a very confident way. And that's 776 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:17,080 Speaker 1: why I think he has big dick energy. But I 777 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 1: might just be trying to explain something that words can't 778 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 1: do justice for. Maybe it's a confidence in spite of 779 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 1: yeah something else, right, Right, Johnny Knoxville, big Dick energy. 780 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,839 Speaker 1: H Dana Carvey versus Billy Crystal. We have on here 781 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,920 Speaker 1: Billy Crystal, big dig Dana Carvey, not no dick, no 782 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 1: dick energy because energy, but almost because he's so talent forward, Yeah, 783 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: I think cause he's good at stuff, he's got that 784 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:47,879 Speaker 1: big turtle energy turtle like seriously self deprecating, right, yeah, yeah, 785 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 1: that's also do you think that's a projection or real? 786 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 1: I think Dana Carvey is not like outwardly confident, so 787 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:55,840 Speaker 1: he can't have big dick energy. Okay, what about Justin 788 00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 1: trudeou I think, yeah, yeah, I guess that kind of 789 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 1: us my whole Canadian Yeah, I think. I mean we 790 00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 1: were talking child actors. That's a small subset. That's a 791 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:09,280 Speaker 1: subsect that's it's hard to find a Degrassi cast member 792 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:13,279 Speaker 1: with big dick energy. But I would argue that the 793 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:15,719 Speaker 1: actor Jake Epstein, who played Craig Manning, does have big 794 00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,520 Speaker 1: dick energy. Um, and everyone can attack my mentions if 795 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 1: you most controversial take in the history of your time 796 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,799 Speaker 1: on this show. Uh, can we just talk about the 797 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 1: turtle factor real quick? This is my favorite It's my 798 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,600 Speaker 1: favorite fact. It's also my favorite thing about you that 799 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,320 Speaker 1: you love this fact so much. So can you explain 800 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:42,320 Speaker 1: to people what? Okay, so the Master of Disguise, Dana 801 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:46,879 Speaker 1: Carvey's starring vehicle that uh was just a big old 802 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:49,200 Speaker 1: train wreck. You gotta watch it. It's a sixty eight 803 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:55,319 Speaker 1: minute movie where twelve of the minutes are credits and bloopers. 804 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,360 Speaker 1: Uh So, there's a famous turtle Turtle scene from the 805 00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 1: trailer Turtle. It's the only scene in the movie basically, 806 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:06,760 Speaker 1: And uh so, the day that was filmed was September 807 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 1: eleven one. It was shooting in Los Angeles.
