00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's I think the number one

16
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 3: thing on Netflix.

17
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 1: Maybe it is the number one thing on Netflix. So

18
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: we're not alone. It's not that crazy that we start

19
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: watching it at the same time.

20
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 3: No, the algorithms made us.

21
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: I was excited to watch. My wife and I had

22
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: the had date night last night. I love the Tuesday

23
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: date night. You know, usually we're Thursday, but sometimes we

24
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: push it forward because we got to alternate and a

25
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: Tuesday date night, getting that in early in the.

26
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 3: Week stay at home date night.

27
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:38,639
Speaker 1: So last night we went to a Korean dessert place

28
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 1: with shaved snow and just got a little dessert, had

29
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: some chicken wings before, and then came home and watched

30
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: I thought we were gonna be able to watch the

31
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: new link Later movie hit Man, because I like Richard

32
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: link Later movies and I love the premise of this movie,

33
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: which is essentially that hit men don't really exist, which

34
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 1: is something we kept running into in uh, something we

35
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: kept running into at Cracked when we were like we kept

36
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: finding these stories where people would try and hire hitmen

37
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: and they would always be FBI. It was just always

38
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: FBI stings every over and over again. And so like,

39
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: wait did hit men get invented by movie genres? And

40
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: like they don't actually exist?

41
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: Or like Richard Kuklinsky be like the only person you

42
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: could kind of call it like mobs.

43
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's like mob people for sure, but like in

44
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: terms of people who are just like a set of skills,

45
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: I'm a hit man who's just like all purpose doesn't

46
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: really exist, and so.

47
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: Do they're called our modern law enforcement?

48
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: Hey watch it.

49
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 3: Okay, sorry, gotta go, but this documentary.

50
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: Anyways came home. That movie doesn't come out on Netflix

51
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: until Friday, so we watched The Seven Mulung Walk. To

52
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 1: tell you why I started watching this documentary. Everyone's watching.

53
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: I can say it's in a Korean church.

54
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting because I remember seeing the trailer and

55
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 2: I was like, man, I don't give a shit about

56
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 2: TikTok dancing ship, Like like the trailer sadly, I'm so

57
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 2: fucking depraved. I was like, where's the murder at And

58
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: I'm like the same cult then, like this ain't a

59
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 2: cult I need to fucking know about, Like where are

60
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 2: people getting fucking carved up and served up to the

61
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 2: TikTok lord? But when you watch it, it is a

62
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 2: very interesting look in how, you know, fame and the

63
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 2: pursuit of stardom combined with many other factors like fitting

64
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 2: in and having like you know, financial stability, can turn

65
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: you into a servant of this pastor who apparently is just.

66
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: He takes the kids from their family, and they family off,

67
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: they cut all their old friends out of their lives,

68
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: and he's like, I'm going to make you rich and famous.

69
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's wild too, because some of the people

70
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 2: were like, I mean and I was getting money, so

71
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 2: it was even though I had to give fifty percent

72
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 2: to him and all these tithings and shit, Uh it's it. Yeah,

73
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I think it's really interesting. I'm

74
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: I'm going to finish it. I'm two episodes in and.

75
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: They're like very successful dancers. Like the people who are

76
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: part of the cult have like millions of followers on Instagram,

77
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: and like there there are ads that they show, like

78
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 1: them getting this like Toyota ad where they're like dancing

79
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 1: their way into you know, some some new model of

80
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: Toyota And I was like, that looks familiar, but right,

81
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: I think that seems like look the same now.

82
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

83
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, But anyways, no word on what the seven ms

84
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: stand for. I don't think as of yet. We do

85
00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: have a story tomorrow about three m that you can

86
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: look forward to, but we're just knocking out all the

87
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: numbered m evils in the world.

88
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think it's a yeah, it's just a

89
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 2: it's interesting. I think like it says a lot to me.

90
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 2: It said a lot about like I feel like the

91
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 2: pandemic was also a huge thing that drove a lot

92
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: of these creators into this business relationship because this guy

93
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 2: had a house and it's sort of like, hey, man,

94
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 2: there's not work right now, but we can figure out

95
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 2: a way to do it, et cetera, et cetera.

96
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah.

97
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, cool, we will. I don't know if I'll continue

98
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: watching it. My wife grew up in a Korean church

99
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: and was like, this looks like all the shots from

100
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: inside the cult like look like what she grew up around.

101
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: But obviously they weren't forced to like move into a

102
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 1: giant housing complex together, where like he determined who who

103
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: you like?

104
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 2: A yeah, and I gotta say her the choreography she doesn't.

105
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 2: Her TikTok though, is pretty next level.

106
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, and she did just announce that she signed with

107
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: seven M, but that's more for business purposes.

108
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 2: And the reason Jack is in the videos anymore is

109
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 2: because he's taking a little bit of a break from the.

110
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I still do have the main problem that

111
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,359
Speaker 1: you are mentioning that like this could just be like

112
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: a couple of years of them. Yeah, they're like, yeah,

113
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: they weren't talking to us anymore for a little while,

114
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: but then they got over it, you know. Yeah, like

115
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: the the actual stakes might.

116
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 2: Not be No, but I think you realize I think,

117
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 2: and also for me being like a new parent, like

118
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 2: just when you see like this sort of contorted looks

119
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 2: of pain on the faces of these parents who are

120
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 2: like they're like, my kid literally doesn't talk to me anymore,

121
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 2: and like they shun me because they've now this person

122
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 2: is their new everything. That's I get those steaks. But yeah,

123
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 2: maybe it'll I'm like what I'm like in my mind,

124
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 2: like does it need to be more salacious than that

125
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 2: for you to actually engage with it?

126
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 3: And a part of me is like maybe, but no,

127
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 3: but no, I might stick around.

128
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: There's a wild part where they're like the parents go

129
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: out to California. They're like from Detroit, and they're like

130
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: just going around looking at the background of the videos

131
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: and trying to like geo match it with like this

132
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: neighborhood that they think that she might live in, and

133
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: they like successfully do it. They're like, wait, there's a

134
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: water tower back there.

135
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 3: Google water.

136
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, if you had some shit like that,

137
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 2: I feel like the freaks that I've seen on the

138
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 2: internet who can look at just random street view pictures

139
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: and be like this is Bulgaria.

140
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's wild.

141
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 3: Yeah en listen, then all.

142
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: Right, Spotify is raising their prices again, whereas grocery stores target, Walmart,

143
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: aldi are all lowering prices on some items McDonald's, even

144
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 1: McDonald's even so, I don't know, We've been hearing for

145
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: years now that it's just inflation. These are complicated market

146
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,239
Speaker 1: forces that are beyond our control. And really the only

147
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: person we can blame is like Joe Biden and the

148
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: Fed and and uh you know or whoever's president and

149
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: uh something something balanced the budget. Except we're getting more

150
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:13,119
Speaker 1: and more evidence that prices are going up because they

151
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: the people realize that there's not enough competition to have

152
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: any reason not to raise prices on people. So like,

153
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: basically this is where capitalism stops working. So, for instance,

154
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: it with Spotify. The company underwent three rounds of job

155
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: cuts last year, so people are pointing that, being like,

156
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: so they got to raise prices to get some more money.

157
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 1: You know, you look at that company must be in

158
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: some rough shape, no weight. They reported a record profit

159
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: of one hundred and eighty three million dollars in the

160
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: first quarter of twenty twenty four.

161
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, look, I think

162
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 2: at this point, like we really have to stop even

163
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 2: mentioning inflation as like a thing anymore, because it's just

164
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 2: become so clear. It's just prices have gone up in

165
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 2: so many sectors purely because they kind.

166
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 3: Of looked around.

167
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 2: They're like, hey, man, you raise prices too, and they're

168
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 2: still buying it. Yeah, okay, maybe just let's raise it

169
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 2: a little bit more and just yeah, just start making

170
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 2: more money.

171
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:14,959
Speaker 3: I didn't. I don't think they really know. We just

172
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 3: keep saying it's inflation and shit like that.

173
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're just basically finding out that they will raise

174
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: they will charge you as much as they can get

175
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,839
Speaker 1: away with, not so that they can like pay for innovation,

176
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: but so that their shareholders and executives can take that

177
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: money and put it in their bank account. Right Like,

178
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 1: that's that is what the out of control inflation is.

179
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 1: So for with Target Walmart, I'll de like that nothing

180
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: happened all of a sudden up the you know, supply chain.

181
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: It's just they recognize, Okay, customers seem to be bothered

182
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: by this, so now as an opportunity for us to

183
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: lower prices. I'm not complaining about that. It's just interesting that,

184
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: you know, the media that's to be charting this and

185
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: talking about how it's like out of their control and

186
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: there's nothing that can be done. Is no longer raising

187
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 1: those like out of control, you know, market forces that

188
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: are as unshakable as gravity. Now that they're lowering prices,

189
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, so they're going to try this

190
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,959
Speaker 1: to see if they can get more money. The other

191
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: detail that came out in the past couple of weeks

192
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 1: is that the FBI recently rated a corporate landlord as

193
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: part of an investigation into their artificially increasing rents through collusion.

194
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 1: And so the investigation centers around the use of something

195
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: called reil Page, which is a software that these different

196
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 1: corporate landlords use to set prices for rent. But what

197
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:52,559
Speaker 1: it's doing is technically making it so everybody raises prices

198
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: at the same rate in the same areas, so there's

199
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: no competition. There's one central price setter, and they are

200
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: The thing that is that they're interested in is making

201
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,199
Speaker 1: as much money for landlords as possible. Yeah, and that's illegal.

202
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: That's called collusion. Dude.

203
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 3: They're even telling on themselves like, well, they.

204
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 1: Don't It feels like they don't know that this is illegal.

205
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: They're like, wait, what but right, yeah.

206
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 2: Like the morality aside, They're like, I don't I don't

207
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 2: think I think you can do this.

208
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, and just they turn the volume up on people.

209
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, landlords that are supposed to be in competition with

210
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: each other outsourced daily pricing and ongoing revenue oversight to

211
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 1: real Page and the company allegedly or the company like

212
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: basically says it in their like literature literature. They're like,

213
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: we allow corporate landlords who are technically competitors to work

214
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: together to make us all more successful in our pricing.

215
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 2: Put evil fucking statement, Yeah, to make this all more successful.

216
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 3: And I want I want more success in my pricing.

217
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

218
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 3: You mean fucking squeezing every last penny out of something anyway?

219
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, FBI hope this leads to something.

220
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: But it's just completely lost dollar track of how capitalism

221
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: is supposed to even work because it's just been so

222
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: out of control, deregulated, and all of the communication has

223
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 1: been taken over by the corporate side of the conversation,

224
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: so that yeah, there's nothing pushing back on.

225
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 2: Well except for now people just being fed up and

226
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 2: it's just all going to manifest and just instability.

227
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: But even this massive price fixing like collusion scandal, like

228
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 1: doesn't get picked up that much. It's pretty crazy. Like

229
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: the FBI rated their corporate headquarters and is like this

230
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: is wild. This is not just a local story. This

231
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: is nationally Like this software is being used nationally to

232
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: set prices, and like prices have been going up I

233
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: think thirty percent year over year around the country. Yeah. So,

234
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 1: but maybe good news. Maybe maybe people are getting fed

235
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: up enough that we're gonna people are going to start

236
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: paying attention to shit like this. Let's take a quick

237
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: break and we'll be right back. And we're back.

238
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 2: We're back.

239
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,679
Speaker 1: Just a little detail from the Trump trial. Some people

240
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 1: are floating the theory, most notably Us in the Right

241
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: Now that Trump lost in New York because his legal

242
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: team was constantly bloated and drowsy from the shit diet

243
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: that he forced down their throat. One of his lawyers,

244
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 1: Todd Blanche, just appeared on a legal podcast and described

245
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,839
Speaker 1: how his criminal defense was fueled by junk food, including McDonald's.

246
00:13:55,240 --> 00:14:00,359
Speaker 1: And there's images of just Giant like it looks like this.

247
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 3: Is doing Uber eats.

248
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, Secret services returned from a Costco shopping trip.

249
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 2: Dude, they don't even have like the regular hand Like

250
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 2: these McDonald's bags have fucking.

251
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 3: Handles on them. Yeah, so much fucking each There's like

252
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 3: the quote.

253
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: McDonald's bags, you can possibly have.

254
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 2: Three secret service agents bags in both hands. Some have

255
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 2: multiple bags in each hand. And man, the stress eating

256
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 2: in there must have been fucking out of control. If

257
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 2: like everything was McDonald's. It's like, yeah, I'll hands on deck, man,

258
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 2: just more burgers.

259
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 3: Itzza. You need to be farting, just need to be

260
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 3: farting so I can stay awake, folks.

261
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, this does shed some light into I need to

262
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: fart to wake myself up. But it does shed some

263
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: light into like the thing that we heard about him

264
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: in court was that he was very sleepy and farting. Yeah,

265
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: and hey processed foods to do a body and when

266
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 1: it wasn't McDonald's, it was quote pizza or quote other

267
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 1: non healthy alternatives to McDonald's.

268
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 3: That is such a funny description.

269
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: So the lawyer had to like stop eating. He was like,

270
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 1: so I had to like eat on my way to

271
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: court or on my way home, and I ended up

272
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: losing eight pounds as a result.

273
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 3: Wow, yeah, Yeah, that's wild.

274
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 2: I mean, I just again, I love that they're like

275
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 2: other unhealthy options. You could have just said it was

276
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 2: just other junk food, but just like really being like, yeah,

277
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 2: I wonder what that would have been if he's not

278
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 2: eating what what does he pivot to?

279
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 3: If you're a McDonald's guy, Like, it's not burger king?

280
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you like maybe maybe it is just king?

281
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 3: Mister president? What about shakeshack? What?

282
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 4: No?

Speaker 3: Or remember that when he was running for president, He's.

288
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 2: Like he said, yeah, I love the taco bowl here.

289
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: He really just is richly rich as an adult, Like

290
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: you can't even comprehend that a team of grown up

291
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: legal experts would not want fucking McDonald's three meals a day.

292
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: I know.

293
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 3: And so, but but I mean that's how far.

294
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 2: Like you know, you talk about people who have sick

295
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 2: of fans around them, they completely lose touch, But to

296
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 2: lose touch to the point where you think you can

297
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 2: subject other adults to three square feels of McDonald's And

298
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 2: that's gonna bro, don't even know fucking I don't even

299
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 2: know if I would have done that at my highest

300
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 2: as a teenager, right, but like, yeah, dude, McDonald's breakfast,

301
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 2: McDonald's is McDonald's dinner.

00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: It must smelled like absolute shit in that room and

00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: then in the courtroom too, Like that can be you know,

304
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: they're like all these hacks of like you wear glasses

305
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: on the stand or when you're a defendant and it

306
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 1: makes you look more innocent or you know. But I

307
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: I wonder if they have like smell hacks. But like

308
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 1: just be unleashing fileo fish farts in the court room.

309
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,440

00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:17,400
Speaker 1: I feel healthy. That's yeah, I think.

313
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 2: I mean, that's why I think why I would always

314
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 2: eat subway tuna, because even though it is actually like

315
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 2: calorically maybe like worse, because it's just basically mayonnaise and

316
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 2: yoga mats crunched up together. Mm hmm, part of me

317
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 2: is like, man, it's a tuna, though, that's that's natural

318
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 2: from the sea.

417
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,280
