This 41 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: clip of Bill Burr on his show kind of went 42 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: viral again because like Bill Burke, he's like, dude, like 43 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: because at a point he's like, you know, I'm wearing 44 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: a mask, bottle. Joe's like, you wear a mask, bro, 45 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: and he's like, I'm not doing this with you, Joe, 46 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: just you're not a fucking medical expert. I'm not a 47 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: medical expert, and we're not gonna just start talking about 48 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: ship we don't know about. And it was just and 49 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: again you just saw like sort of this back and 50 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: forth between them. But yeah, it's Joe. But it's funny 51 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: because Joe Rogan has this like very cynical laugh throughout 52 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: it when Bill Burke calls him on a bunch of 53 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: ship um where you're like, yeah, ship had like on 54 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: some level, you know what you're doing. But that's what 55 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: people tune in for to hear me speculate about ship 56 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: that I don't understand. And even though I'm looking at 57 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: you going like, I know, dude, I'm kind of bullish it, 58 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: but you know, like you're like, but that's truly wild 59 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: that he claims to have taken the horse de warmer 60 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: because you got to man, are you are you even magavul? Yeah. 61 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: Rogan also said he had received a vitamin drip as 62 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: well as inver mactin, a drug primarily used as a 63 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: veterinary de warming agent. Uh. This is a quote from 64 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: the New York Times. That's that's where we're at. He 65 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: is he is a story that's covered in the New 66 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: York Times. I mean it got to the point where 67 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: like a woman sued like a hospital to make them 68 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: treat her husband with ivor mactin, and you're like, they're like, 69 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: I guess you win. But then like doctors like, what 70 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: are you fucking talking about? Like you might as well 71 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: just say, beat them with a fucking read stick or something, 72 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: not a treatment. Yeah, no, I think that works. Actually 73 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: I heard the beating with the read stick works. It does. 74 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: So on this morning's episode, we were talking about the 75 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: fact that the Preme Court failed to intervene and you know, 76 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: acknowledge out loud that the Texas Abortion Band was unconstitutional. 77 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: They hadn't said anything yet at that point, so we 78 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: were like, well, they ultimately like realize what a bad 79 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: idea this was. Even so that would be horrifying because 80 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 1: it just proved that they're like doing this as a 81 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: weather balloon for when they do decide to overturn row. Anyways, 82 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: they went all in. They in a five four ruling 83 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: decided to let it ride. Let a abortion band ride 84 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: in Texas. And the way they're getting around it is 85 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: by making it so that people can sue each other 86 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: for tens of thousands of dollars for or either getting 87 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: an abortion or being party party aiding in the betting one. 88 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: As they would say. Yeah, I mean, a lot of 89 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 1: people pointed out, it's like, oh yeah, this there was 90 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: I remember another time when this was happening. It's when 91 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 1: people could report slaves that had freed themselves. Yeah. Um, 92 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: in a similar fashion of reporting on people for a bounty. 93 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, and and the other thing we're 94 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: saying yesterday was just about how, you know, these laws, 95 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: once they are allowed to rock like this, other states 96 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: copy very quickly. And I believe Florida had already announced 97 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: that they're looking into applying this you know, version of 98 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: the Texas law in Florida. Yeah. Then meanwhile, we were 99 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: just hearing very little inspiring, you know, words from the 100 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: leadership of this country as it relates to people's access 101 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 1: to healthcare. I know Biden was like, we have to, 102 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: you know, do something. But it's like fullier the president, 103 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: like what what are we going to do? What are 104 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: you going to do? He just said, I'm instructing agencies 105 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: to quote, see what steps in the federal See what 106 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: steps the federal government can take to ensure that women 107 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: in Texas have access to safe and legal abortions. You 108 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: can make real v. Wade an actual law with Congress. 109 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 1: How about that? How about that? About that point? But again, 110 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: you look at the these fucking ghouls and goblins like 111 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: in the in both parties, who just have no idea 112 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: like what is at stake or they do know, they 113 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: just don't care because they've you know, they've sided with 114 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: much larger powers like the Koch Brothers network or something 115 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: like that to just get in the way of the 116 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: simplest things like voting rights or you know, abortion acts. 117 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: And this again ultimately like puts the ultimate line of 118 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: the idea that the Supreme Court is an impartial, like 119 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: purely legal entity. This is by anyone's standards, completely unconstitutional 120 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: based on like all the things that Supreme Court is 121 00:06:55,120 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 1: supposed to consult the minority opinion was like, huh, how 122 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: the fund are you all doing that? And but it 123 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: doesn't matter because they're an ideological political body. Uh that 124 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: anybody you know that. We we talked before about how 125 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: the democratically appointed elder Statesman of the Supreme Court um 126 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: was talking about how like, well I think that always 127 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: other justices like have fairness in mind. When I'm talking 128 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: about why he wasn't going to retire, Well, you know, 129 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: Biden could ensure he was replaced by a liberal justice. Anyways, Uh, 130 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: completely fucked. Nancy Pelosi seems to say that when they 131 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: return from their break, they will bring up Judy cho. 132 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,239 Speaker 1: She had a bill called the Women's Health Protection Act. 133 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: Say we'll take that up to make this a law, 134 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: right exactly, to make really codify that and we'll see 135 00:07:55,440 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: what happens. You know. In the segment bodily autonomy, a lah, Yeah, 136 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: I decided by a bunch of geriatrics. Al Right, Well, 137 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: and less important news adults, Swim is trending because it 138 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: is twenty years old. I gotta say, uh, put me 139 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: onto a lot of obscure comedic comedic comedics like Aquitine 140 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: was one of my was my favorite shows um. And 141 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: you know, more than that gave people like Flying Lotus, 142 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: you know, a start too, because like those interstitial ads 143 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: were like always the kind of things like kind of 144 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: gave me an imagination for like cool music that I 145 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,839 Speaker 1: was not interacting with on the radio. And I was like, no, 146 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: man like adults swim like I remember, I'd YouTube like 147 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: adult swim music, um, because they were just so forward 148 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: thinking with the kinds of music they had playing those bumps. 149 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be 150 00:08:50,880 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: right back. And we're back. Let's check in with the 151 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: funory going on in Congress currently, Joe Mansion just like 152 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: we're talking a piece of trash allegedly, especially as it 153 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: relates to this law in Texas that's banning abortion everyone. Like, 154 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: I thought Democrats had the Senate, the fucking House, the 155 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: fucking White House, but it looks like the Conservatives are 156 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: just running ship. And you know another indication of that 157 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: is when you're trying to pass a fucking infrastructure bill. Um. 158 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: During you know, as you can tell, both coasts of 159 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: this country are going through hell, whether it's fire or flooding. Um. 160 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:47,559 Speaker 1: And you know, just again underscoring our climate crisis. Um. 161 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: You know, there's still no infrastructure is like a fucking 162 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: hot topic issue. And Joe Manson said he won't support 163 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: the three point five trillion dollar bill. He said just 164 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: basically said, I can't support it or anywhere near that 165 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: level of additional additional spending without greater clarity about why 166 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: Congress chooses to ignore the serious effects inflation and debt 167 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: have on existing government programs. Get the fuck out of 168 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,839 Speaker 1: the fucking Senate, you turn, what are you talking about. 169 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: We're like, you're we have the most severe ship going on, 170 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: but this person, because they're still insulated by their wealth 171 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,599 Speaker 1: and status, it's like it's a fucking it's an abstraction 172 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 1: to them. It's like a thing that they can just 173 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: scroll past on a fucking news feed or someone on 174 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:36,319 Speaker 1: an app, rather than human beings lives being adversely affected. 175 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: And not only that, we have terrible issues with people 176 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: about to lose unemployment benefits. Uh, Eviction moratoriums are only 177 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: really around in a handful of states. Yet we're talking 178 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 1: about if you're if you're worried about debt, how about 179 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: you actually put your head in the game here. But 180 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: it's all just fuck nons. Somebody got to them clearly 181 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: like this, it's the brothers. It asked for the Chamber 182 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: of Commerce. I don't know, but him in Cinema. You know, 183 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: like if you're if you're a real shysty political maneuver 184 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: like and you know how to maneuver, you look at 185 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: the math and you go, who can I put the 186 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: squeeze on to really stop shipped up? And you're like, 187 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: because if I can get two people just to disagree 188 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: on this one bill, then I got something. And it's 189 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: probably a very efficient use of their influence to do that. 190 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: But I mean, this has to be I don't know, 191 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,559 Speaker 1: you you'd hope that the media could then zoom out 192 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: a bit and rather just being like, oh my gosh, 193 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 1: I mean Cinema and Manson said that they were him, 194 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: but now they're not doing it. Why don't you go 195 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,439 Speaker 1: a little bit deeper and try and actually discuss what 196 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: would what what it would take for a senator to 197 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: be such an obstacle to this kind of thing and 198 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: the influence of outside money. But it's just easier to 199 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: be like, there's just there's just real stubborn hume and 200 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: avoiding a deeper conversation about like said, our debt and inflation, Like, 201 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: can he point to a specific like that's such a 202 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: such a fucking just vague, Like, Okay, I'll say this, 203 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 1: your biggest concern should be that Americans have what they 204 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 1: need to survive. These are concepts for you as a legislator, 205 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: for sure, to think about. But when you're talking about 206 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: what this is uh in service of to say, I'm 207 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: going to obstruct this because I think inflation and debt 208 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: are a bigger deal. Who do you answer to and 209 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: whose day to day realities and struggles are you actually 210 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,599 Speaker 1: taking into account to make this determination whether or not 211 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: you're going to support a bill like this? And I 212 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: think that's when you really see your like, dude, this 213 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: like he couldn't even articulate probably that unless he's gonna 214 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: be so paternalistic and be like, well, you guys, I 215 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: know you're saying you don't have jobs, and an infrastructure 216 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: bill could create a lot of jobs and things like that, 217 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: but you've got to think about inflation and debt on 218 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: existing government programs, Sonny, And I think that complicated economic 219 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: phenomenon like that kind of turns people's brands off. So 220 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: it's just like a hypnotism trick where you like when 221 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: I say inflation and debt, you will your brain will 222 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 1: shut off and you'll choose to stop paying attention right when, Like, 223 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: really working people need to know that it's people like 224 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 1: this who do the bidding of the wealthy that are 225 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: the fucking real threat to any upward mobility or sense 226 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 1: of autonomy or agency. You know that that we have 227 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 1: very social fabric of our country. Let's talk about Canadas 228 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: els a bit of good news. This is chock full 229 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 1: of I mean, you know, she wanted to go get 230 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: a COVID test and she was denied a COVID test. Uh. 231 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 1: They basically she I think she's somewhere in Colorado. And 232 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 1: someone wrote this, um it just said I've just learned 233 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: of this testing request, and as the owner of this business, 234 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,599 Speaker 1: I'm going to refuse this booking and deny service. We 235 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: cannot support anyone who has actively work to make this 236 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 1: pandemic worse by spreading misinformation, politicizing and discouraging the wearing 237 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: of masks, and actively dissuading people from receiving life saving vaccinations. 238 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: The only other local testing option is the free kiosk 239 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: by city Hall. They mail their tests to Texas and 240 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 1: have inconsistent result times do not take appointments, so it's 241 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: walking only mid day, midday weekdays in their back alley. 242 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: My team and myself have worked overtime to exhaustion, unpaid 243 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: and underpaid this past year, spending our own capital to 244 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: ensure that our community remains protected. It would be unfair 245 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: to them and to the sacrifices we have all made 246 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: this year to serve. Shout out to them that was 247 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: well put. Yeah, And it's funny because then Candice Owens 248 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: suddenly is like there, I was refused it because I'm 249 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: I'm a black woman and they're discriminating against me, and 250 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 1: I've seen takes like that. They're like, zoom out for 251 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: a second. This is about a woman who has denied 252 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: healthcare access. Um. You know, she's able to get it 253 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: other where other places. But for someone like Candice Owens, 254 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: who herself says ray Sism does not exist, I don't 255 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: understand how suddenly that this construct is something she's now 256 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: agreeing to. But again, it's always selective outrage and there's 257 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: no consistency to any of their philosophical beliefs. So it's 258 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: hard to have any kind of empathy for someone who 259 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: says racism doesn't even exist. Um, and it's just it 260 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: seems like they're intentionally trolling the world and everybody's sense 261 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: of justice by complaining that a woman is being denied 262 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: healthcare as they're overturning row Like but yeah, it's like, really, 263 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: are you your energy is going to cape for Candice 264 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: Owens because there's an entire state of people who are 265 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: being denied healthcare access. And yeah, anyway, okay, nice try 266 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: all right, let's talk briefly about some of the images 267 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: coming out of New York, New Jersey, South Jersey, Philly 268 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: area where to my people are. And it's pretty it's 269 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: pretty wild. There was like a massive tornado in the 270 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: Philly area. Um, and in Jersey. The flooding that we're 271 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: seeing in New York City is just wild, like just 272 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: water like pouring up out of the out of the ground. Uh, 273 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: Like manhole covers like blowing up, like blowing off because 274 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: of like the pressure changes underneath. Uh. But Postmates are 275 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: still out there delivering food. So that's good. You saw 276 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: you you saw that, yeah, of that guy fucking like 277 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: delivering a meal in fucking two and a half three 278 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: ft of water. It was the most dystopian ship, didn't 279 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: postmates like send it or tweet it. Maybe maybe I 280 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: might have that wrong, but it seems I don't. I mean, 281 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: it seems like a tweet someone would do satirically, but 282 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: you'd also believe it because this is hell. Were still 283 00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: they're making sure you get your food um and underpaying 284 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: people and trying to miss categorize them as independent contractors 285 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: so we don't have to give them any benefits. But 286 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 1: they say about twenty seven people UM in the Tri 287 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: state area. So it's man, it's it's really harrowing. And 288 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: again like what this is such an emergency and again 289 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 1: we're we are in the hands of leaders who, like 290 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is saying like yeah, yeah, yeah, just to 291 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: get up to get up to getting more drilling and 292 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: stuff like that. Let's not really get too focused on 293 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: changing the energy makes of what our investments are because 294 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: this is all fucking not real. Yeah, absolutely, it's just 295 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,479 Speaker 1: it's just like odd. And again we're like, it's just 296 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 1: an omni crisis constantly where we're still in the pandemic 297 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: and we still have we're trying to cut off benefits. 298 00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,160 Speaker 1: People are made to feel that it's over and don't 299 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: have the ability to take care of themselves and continue 300 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: to like experience this ship and still clock in and 301 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 1: all this other stuff. It's fucking you know, it's tough. 302 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: Like That's why I feel like every day there's a 303 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 1: tweet on like there's a tweet that goes like it's 304 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: hundreds of there are a ton of likes, because it's 305 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: mostly like being like everything's fucked up and we're just 306 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 1: still meant to keep going. Like that constructive tweet is 307 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 1: like very common, and I feel like resonates with a 308 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: lot of people. But it's I don't know, it's just 309 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: a tough situation too, where even like the media discourse 310 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 1: around it is through the lens of people who this 311 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: these aren't really existential threats. Yet more evidence that this 312 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: is not normal. Manhattan Central Park saw the most amount 313 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 1: of rain ever to fall there in a single hour, 314 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: and New York experienced the first flash flood emergency ever 315 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: issued by the New York Office. New York has been 316 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: there for a while, it's been up and running for 317 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: a while. I I hear yeah. Any Ways, shout out 318 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 1: to the people of New York and New Jersey and Philly. 319 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: Stay safe out there. Yeah, please do awful and I 320 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: I hope you can return to some sense of infrastructural 321 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: stability soon. All right, that's gonna do it for this 322 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: Thursday afternoon. We are back tomorrow with the whole last 323 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: episode of the show.
