No, I don't think. I 47 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: don't think I've ever met her. I mean maybe I 48 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: was at the King's game. He was at somebody's big 49 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: hockey fan. We didn't really get into that too much. 50 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: But no, I loved I love talking to her. I mean, 51 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: Earl were kind of close to the same age, and 52 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: we saw our life experiences as kids similar. And he 53 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: loved Jim Healy. That's my one of my inspirations to 54 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: get in the radio. Do you think Jim Healy radio program? 55 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: Do you think Jim would have worked today? Uh? Well, 56 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: he would have worked up until a couple of years ago. 57 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: Now No, Now, oh you're fat shaming that guy for 58 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: what he ate. Yeah, you played the pig sound effects 59 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: when the you know, he did, and as Earle pointed out, 60 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: I mean knew, he knew everybody. And I learned later 61 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: on that, you know, Jim, a lot of his sources 62 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: were the radio report orders that became my friends. That 63 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: would be the eyes and ears in the press box 64 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: and they'd take notes on what what foods were being 65 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: served and you know what was going on, you know, 66 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: the club house. And Jim he was great because the phrasing, 67 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: the phrasing for you know what I'm doing homage again 68 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: to Jim Healy who was an inspiration me and the 69 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: radio guy. If you didn't hear yesterday's podcast in l 70 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: A back in the day. But he'd say is it true, 71 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: which is a great way of saying literally anything, And 72 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: you're not saying it's true, it just could be true, 73 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: Like you know, it's just it's like the plausible deniability. 74 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: It's it's a weasel term. Is it true? Dateline Sunset Strip, 75 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: Tommy little Sorta. Yeah, I remember when the sort of 76 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: was selling spaghetti sauce and like a diet program at 77 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 1: the same time it was he was selling pasta and 78 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: a diet program and heally used to have a field 79 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 1: day with that then. But yeah, fun members everone was wonderful. 80 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: I gotta go out and see Arle do stand up. 81 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: Now that stuff has opened up again, I gotta get 82 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: out there. I got a lot of stuff going on 83 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: right now behind the scenes at the old Mallard mansion, 84 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: so I wan't be able to get out anytime, particularly soon, 85 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 1: but I will. I put that on my list of 86 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: things to do this summer. Like I see Earle at 87 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: the at the comedy club. I love standup. I used 88 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 1: to go to that. What's that place in Burbank. There's 89 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: a comedy club there. I used to go to. It's 90 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: a small one, isn't it. Yeah, yeah, but my wife 91 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: we went there. The guy from MC Curb Your Enthusiasm, 92 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: the Fat Guy. He used to do a gig there 93 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: every Sunday night. I think he moved to actually to 94 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: do a club in Hollywood now, and I used to love. 95 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: We used to go out there. It was fun. So yeah, 96 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: Jay Lennard would Jay Lennon would go to the her 97 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: Most of Beach comedy Store. He didn't do that anymore. 98 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if he does, but on Sunday nights 99 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: he would go there and roll out all of his 100 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: content for the week. Um, I heard somebody told me 101 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: that he's still making a killing on corporate gigs. Leno, 102 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: is that true? You think he's it's this night show 103 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: has been on the air. You know, Ty has been 104 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: good in years, and uh, Kimmel's not Jimmy kim who's 105 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: the Yeah, what's the guy from Jimmy? Yeah he's terrible. Um, 106 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: but but Leno, I heard he's still got a lot 107 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: of gigs. Where good for him if that's true, that 108 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: he's making cash older there, I believe that. Speaking of which, 109 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 1: I watched Saturday Night Live last week congratulated because of 110 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: you and didn't go the way I was hoping. Yeah, no, ship, 111 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: it didn't go the way you're hoping. And uh, all right, 112 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: I'm in the long game, not the short game, not 113 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: in the know. Think of the macro, not the micro boy, 114 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: and I don't be obsessed with it. I remember why 115 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: I haven't watched that show in a long time. It just, 116 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 1: I mean short, doing sketch comedies really fucking hard. But 117 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:54,479 Speaker 1: it was painfully bad and unfortunately. Yeah, yeah, I have 118 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: not watched Saturday and I think I watched. The last 119 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 1: one I watched was when they had I think Eddie 120 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: Murphy came back, remember to Hosted. I watched that one 121 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: and I was not enthralled. I didn't think, boy, this 122 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: is great. You know, this is wonderful. I need to 123 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: keep watching this. Yeah, I think it might be an 124 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: age thing too, I think, but I generally the comedy 125 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: and you're supposed to at least occasionally dabble in the 126 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: third rail. Yeah, we like dark comedy. And that was 127 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: part of the reason why I wrought Earl on, Like 128 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: Earl Earl gets after it and some of the ship 129 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: that went on at the roast battles upstairs in the 130 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: comedy store. No way you'd have someone videotaping any of that. 131 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: But dudes got after guys and girls. And that's what 132 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: I love about comedy. And nobody is safe, right, It's 133 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: like it's like Game of Thrones, like everyone's expected to 134 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: get their head cut off one time or another. And yeah, 135 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: comedy is so careful now. I feel like you have 136 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: all these boxes you can and you can't check off, 137 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: which is unfortunate because it ruins the authenticity of what 138 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: these guys are trying to do and what they write out. 139 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: And hey, everyone gets offended or something. Nowadays, it's unfortunate. Yeah, yeah, 140 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: it was. You know, it was tiptoeing around, right, you know, 141 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: I just wanna I don't wanna offend anyone, you know, 142 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: walking on eggshells and all that, which is, which is, 143 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: which is annoying and um so, yeah, I I agree 144 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: with you on that. And uh, I did not see 145 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: the Elon Musk episode. I saw some clips online, but 146 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: I did not. He was you could tell obviously he's uncomfortable, 147 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: he's raw. But I appreciated it that and he got 148 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: better as the show went along. I thought like his 149 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: opening monologue was okay, but he warmed up, and I 150 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,199 Speaker 1: think the audience warmed up to him later on too. 151 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,079 Speaker 1: I just you you have those all all those reports 152 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: prior to him going live with oh well, certain staffers 153 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,959 Speaker 1: are are now permitted to walk away if they don't 154 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: want to work and work on the show with Elon 155 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: Musk and all that bullshits. Oh yeah, the super woke, 156 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: the snowflake Army. I'm gonna go back in their bunker 157 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: and cut it off and suck the thumb in their 158 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 1: safe space. The oversensitive eye babies that are out there. Yeah, 159 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: it's it's pretty cool, but we do live in the 160 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: age of the professionally offended class. You know that's so yeah, 161 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: I am offended boy, say, how dare you shame on 162 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: you that?

Did tape record 169 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff in the eighth and ninth in 170 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: things from when I here? So yeah, well, actually the shows. 171 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: I don't know we're allowed to say this, but I 172 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: have not done a live show since. That's true. Now, see, 173 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: the CDC came out with a report on Thursday that 174 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: said people that are vaccinated don't have to wear a 175 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: mask anymore in outdoor and outdoor settings. So does that 176 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: mean Ben mallad that you're lazy ass will drive to work? Now? 177 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: Does that mean you will actually get up? I'm not vaccinated, 178 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: so I don't know. I can't kind of you know, 179 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: have you been vaccinating? No? You have not, Well, why 180 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: don't you get vaccinating because I'm young, I'm healthy, I'm 181 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: strong and a good immune system. My FICO scores at 182 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: eight oh seven. I think, by the way, can't you 183 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: just say I'm not I'm vaccinated? And then how are 184 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: they gonna like, what are they gonna do? Before you 185 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: come into the store there, before you go to Trader Joe's, 186 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: you gotta show you your car. How's that car like 187 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: a driver's license? Yeah, how's that gonna work? Papers peppers? Seriously, 188 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: how does that get enforced? I don't know how you 189 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: would enforce that. Do you think we have to get 190 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: a tattoo now? Like we have been vaccinated? We need 191 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: to like they tried that in Germany already. That's a 192 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: good idea. There's the things are at a premium these days, 193 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: ben gas, lumber, food and bullets. Yes, yes, all the 194 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 1: key things and in life, have you mixed those together? 195 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: You get a really good time. All the good time 196 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,559 Speaker 1: bring all that side by side. So on this podcast, 197 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: not that we've already started obviously, but we have how 198 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 1: Low can You Go? And fakery frauds along with along 199 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: with pop quiz and well you've got some other things 200 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: as well. But when we start out with the How 201 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: low can You Go? And I've been in the radio 202 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: business a long time, I guess gan I've had I've 203 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: had some interesting things happen. I've met some fascinating people, 204 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: some people I didn't like, some feeble weaklings. But something 205 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: happened this week that just blew my mind. Am I 206 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 1: gonna name this gutless puke? But somebody, somebody I know, 207 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: put a caller up the calling in the show, a 208 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: planted caller to try to fish for a compliment. I am. 209 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: I'm still shaking. I'm still stunned that someone would have 210 00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: the hutzpah to deputize, to contaminate, pollute a listener, to 211 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 1: force them to call up and dance around for a compliment. 212 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: It really bothered me. Why would someone do that? Do 213 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 1: you think why would someone I'm not saying it's you, 214 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if you or not, I don't know, 215 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: not naming the guilty party, but why do you think 216 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:29,079 Speaker 1: someone would reach out to a listener and plant them 217 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: on the show. It certainly doesn't seem like you know 218 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 1: the proper etiquette. Yeah, I can only assume that you're 219 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: talking about Brian Finley. And if that's the case, I 220 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: think it's for a couple of reasons. One is you 221 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: don't acknowledge him a lot. You undermine him at times, 222 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: You take unprovoked shots at him, his integrity, his work ethic. 223 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: You kind of don't treat him the best that you could. Um. 224 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: You dismissed them on numerous occasions. And I think that 225 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: you know you we mentioned it we live do you 226 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: think it's not Brian Finley? But how do you think like, 227 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: how do you think this would work? Like? Like do 228 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: you think the this? You know someone in radio barely, 229 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: but someone in radio, like, how do you think this? 230 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: Do you think that they just have these listeners numbers 231 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 1: on their phone and they're like, Hey, I'd like to 232 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: get Bend to compliment me. Well, I could call up 233 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: and ask him this question and phrase it this way, 234 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: and then he'll he'll have no no other answer than 235 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: to compliment me. Exhausting much that life be. You know, 236 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: the world that we live in is no longer six 237 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: degrees of separation. It's more like three because of social media. 238 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: And so you would agree with me that the only 239 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: way that certain shows and certain platforms and certain personalities 240 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 1: that are archaic um that have moved platforms from like 241 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: terrestrial radio to something else. They need a little bit 242 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: of a bump they needed, they need support, they need 243 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: grassroots funding, they need grassroots marketing, and they can use 244 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: anything at their disposal. And so I think you would 245 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: actually agree with me that you're probably more encouraged by 246 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: that person's resourcefulness and effort and and longstanding. Where thoughts 247 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: you actually go out there and and have other people 248 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: promote said products. I don't know. I don't know that 249 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: I would use the word promote term, but I would 250 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: just think, like, you know, this's just not how I'm wired. 251 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: I fight my own battles. I don't deputize people to 252 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: fight my battles there. But I would think, like, if 253 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: you're someone that would reach out to a listener, a 254 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: consumer of the Ben Mather Show, and you know someone 255 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: that you you might know I would be aware of 256 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: that doesn't normally call the show and then randomly calls 257 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 1: up maybe hides behind the veil of social media, that 258 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: that wouldn't stand out like a sore thumb. That's the 259 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: first thing. Secondly, UH to think that in that mindset 260 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: that this I know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna 261 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: get a listener to call up and again fish for 262 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: a compliment. You're as close to the stuff on the toilet, 263 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: the back of the toilet and a rest stop on 264 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: the Jersey Turnpike is what you are with that? You 265 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: are rotten eggs. You smell like farts. About that? Not you, 266 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: of course, I'm just in a general sense, not you. 267 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: I would not It's not about you. I don't think 268 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: I would surely hope it's not you. That would be 269 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: very embarrassing if it was you. I think the most 270 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: important thing part of this entire discussion is that whoever 271 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: the individually you're referring to is. I think it's important 272 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: to acknowledge the fact that he or she went directly 273 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: to the consumer, not to like outside agencies and looking 274 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: for all these handouts and looking for all these like 275 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: back slabs and mailing marketing routines. It went right to 276 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: the consumer because that is your direct source of consumption, 277 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: is the consumer. And I applaud the effort. I actually 278 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: commend whoever that might be. It's it's normal, it's important, 279 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: and I don't think it should be lost in the 280 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: fact that that you have people working hard behind the 281 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: scenes um for you, UM and oftentimes it's lost on 282 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: you because, as you said, you're your own man. You 283 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: don't work with a producer. You don't like working with 284 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: your executive producer. You don't like working with a technical 285 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: director or an update anchor that rereads scripts from like 286 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: seven hours ago. Um, you don't like doing things in 287 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: a in a community session, and um you know it's unfortunate, 288 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: but uh, you know, whether you like it or not, 289 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: you don't pick the people you work with. Um, they well, 290 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's really just a you know, moral thing. 291 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: I was really used to fight my own different sixty years. 292 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: Oh you learned? Oh are you admitting that you were 293 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: the person I'm referring to? Did you just admit that 294 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: I did not? I just said you're the way you 295 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: phrase that sounded like you're that's an admission. Well, no, 296 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: I'm just acknowledging that you looked at a different time 297 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: that you brought it up. But I will let the 298 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: listener decide the defense. Rest. I think you've just incriminated 299 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: yourself right there, guess Scot I believe you have you 300 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: snotty nose, cry baby. If you have just you have 301 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: just incriminated yourself, and you can hear it unless you 302 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: first edit that out of the podcast. No, I don't. 303 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: I don't fish for compliments. There's actually a fine promo 304 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: that's circulating across I Heart Media and Fox Sports Radio 305 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: with you promoting yourself and me working on the far 306 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: with Ben Maller. So I don't need any additional that 307 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: was written for me. I didn't write that, and there 308 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,199 Speaker 1: was a gun to my head to read it. So 309 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 1: water gun, well it, super soaker is a gun you 310 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,120 Speaker 1: can drown from a super soaker probably can't be sure 311 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: to catch live editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays 312 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: at two am Eastern eleven pm paciffec.

I have said that social media 319 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: is the matrix. Well, now I have empirical evidence data 320 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 1: that that is that is correct, and that we are 321 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: all being horn swoggled, bamboozled, and led astray, and that 322 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: It really is a case of if you take the 323 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: blue pill, the story ends your way, cup in your bed, 324 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,199 Speaker 1: you believe whatever you want to believe, right, That's what 325 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: Morpheus said in in the Matrix.

It's all the algorithms, 331 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: the box and all that stuff. And I want to 332 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: thank a big fan of the Fifth Hour podcast and 333 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: also the Ben Mallory Show, our guy, Doug. Doug was 334 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 1: a high for Luten executive in the tech industry back 335 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: back and then I think he's retired now, but he 336 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,160 Speaker 1: lives in the Northwest. I don't wanta give exact location. 337 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 1: I don't give me trouble um, not that I don't 338 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: think he would get in trouble for this, but he 339 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: send me this story out of the The Wall Street 340 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: Journal somewhat recently, and I wanted to bring up. I 341 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: actually saved it for the podcast because it, of course 342 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: is confirmation that I'm right. So there's this net neutrality 343 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: battle going on, right, FCC net neutrality. There's a proposal, 344 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: it's out there and the Federal Communications Commission, uh, whether 345 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 1: or not they should roll back internet regulation. Right. It's 346 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: a lot of red tape and and and whatnot, and 347 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: we don't need to get into the minutia of that. 348 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: But the reason this story is interesting and the reason 349 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: I want to talk about it with you right now, 350 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 1: and I think it's very important, is there were let's see, 351 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 1: twenty two million comments, uh that were actually the wait, 352 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: hold it made the math on the there's more than millions, 353 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 1: all right, So i'll deal with you. Let's let's pull 354 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: out the calculator and let's type away. All right. So, uh, 355 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 1: there were a bunch of applies online about net neutrality 356 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 1: with the FCC, and so the New York Attorney General's 357 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: Office went and looked. I think there were twenty two 358 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: million comments. All yeah, So I did have the number 359 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: of twenty two million comments. I wrote some chicken scratch, 360 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 1: I can't rewever. So two million comments, all right? These 361 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: are the bullet points. Twenty two million comments out of 362 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 1: the twenty two The New York Attorney General's Office went 363 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 1: to find out, you know, what is real and what 364 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: is not. What are these bots, what are the algorithms, 365 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 1: what are the real actual human beings? And there's ways 366 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: you can detect that. So, out of the twenty two 367 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,360 Speaker 1: million comments, what percentage of these comments were not legit? 368 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: What percentage of these comments were total bullshit? I'm gonna 369 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 1: say nine percent of the comments were not. No, it's 370 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: not that high, but you're not far off. Over eighty percent, 371 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: over eighty percent of all public comments filed on net 372 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: neutrality to the f c C were bullshit. They were 373 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: they were bogus. Eighteen million fake comments. That's the number, 374 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: eighteen million fake comments, more than eighty percent. There were 375 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: only four million legit. About eight point five million of 376 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: the fake comments to the f CC derived from a 377 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: four point two million dollar camp paying paid for by 378 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: someone named broad Band for America, an advocacy group. This 379 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: is what I'm talking about, these guests on these lobbyists. 380 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: There are what I could right now. I could make 381 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: a few phone calls. I could have three million followers. 382 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: I'd rather somebody buy me followers, but I'm too cheap. 383 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: But there are ways you can. You don't know what's 384 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: legit and what's not. We have buddies of ours and radio. 385 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: Remember this is a great story who overnight they went 386 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: from like two thousand followers to like a hundred two 387 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: hundred thousand followers in like two days because they had, 388 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: you know, open up the bank account or they figured 389 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: out a way to mess you know men and build 390 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: these these body accounts you can make millions of Do 391 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: remember that documentary I watched on HBO about you know, 392 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 1: there was I think we talked about on this show. Uh, 393 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 1: it was about making someone on Instagram celebrity and how 394 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 1: you know you buy these followers and whatnot what goes 395 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: into that. But that's mind buggling. More than eighty percent 396 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: of the comments about net neutrality, we're ridiculous. And the 397 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: reason that's important, let me tell you why that's important 398 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: because these dopey politicians they're older than me. Most of 399 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: these politicians, they don't understand. They must be real. This 400 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: is what the electorate wants. But no, it's not. It's 401 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: what advocacy groups and radicals what they pay for. And 402 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: it it goes back to the matrix, right, you know, 403 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: what is real and what is not real? Yeah, but 404 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: they use this or they use those tools to amplify 405 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: and gaslight their audiences because they know that they have 406 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: a a wing of whatever social media platform or news 407 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: agency will get behind them and preach it as gospel. 408 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 1: All right, don't don't forget that. We had a kid, 409 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: a teenager and Nick Sadman who filed and want a 410 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: massive lawsuit against CNN for what for what they thought 411 00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: was of him talking down the elderly man and in 412 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: some corner some kind of racism and uh, and all 413 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: of a sudden he gets this huge settlement because they 414 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: distorted exactly what was going on there. It's the fucking 415 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: world we live, and everything is is all manipulated, photos 416 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: shopped edited, the videos down, the sound is down, whatever 417 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: it is. It's all about manipulating your eyes and fucking 418 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: with your feelings. That's all it is. It's a deep fake. 419 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 1: We're all being it. We're all in a deep fake 420 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: right now. I had I got into a pretty vocal 421 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: argument last week with a colleague here at Fox. Doug All. Yeah. 422 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: He he asked me during a segment, and I thought 423 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: it was like a throwaway segment, but he asked me 424 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,199 Speaker 1: if I was vaccinated, and I said no, why And 425 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: he said, well why not? And I said, well, I'm, 426 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: you know, a middle aged guy. I'm in good health, 427 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: my immune system strong. Um, well why do I need to? 428 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: And he's like, well, for the greater good, like you 429 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: need to be doing this and that. And I'm like, well, Doug, 430 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 1: are you smoking? Are you drinking? Or you're getting sleep? 431 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: Are you really in your stress? Are you traveling? Um? 432 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: Are you working out? As your vitamin D levels high 433 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: or they low? And it was just this whole thing 434 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 1: about back and forth, back and forth, and I said, hey, 435 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,439 Speaker 1: you know, like these vaccines are administered right now for 436 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: emergency use only. They're not approved by the FDA. And 437 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: he thought they were and I said, no, they're they're not. 438 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: We went back and forth on that, and it's like 439 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: God forbid you question anything. God forbid. I mean the 440 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: box is a perfect example of it. Like you find 441 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:32,439 Speaker 1: out the route, and then you find out where the 442 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: money is coming from, and then you find out the 443 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: influence and someone's behind it because obviously they want to 444 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: push one agenda or another. Well, and the other problem 445 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: is how humans are wired. You want to be with 446 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: the cool people, right, we all want to be with 447 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: the cool people you don't want to be having a 448 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,479 Speaker 1: different opinion with it's out of the the main stream. 449 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: So yeah, that becomes that becomes a problem. Right. You 450 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,360 Speaker 1: wanna you wanna be popular, you want to hang out 451 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: with the cool kids and all that stuff, so that 452 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: you gotta be careful though. I saw him employee who 453 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: wrote a book. I think it was for Apple. I 454 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: don't know if you read about this. He wrote a book, 455 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 1: I think, and it was prior to getting hired at Apple, 456 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 1: and someone complained to like there, I think it was 457 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: like the chief people officer, and they fired the guy. 458 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: Oh is that right? Yeah? I just well, as far 459 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: as me, I haven't gotten the vaccine. I probably will 460 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: get it, just you know, my wife wants me to 461 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: get it. My brother had it. He seems to be 462 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: doing all right, so I'll but my brother had the visor. Well, 463 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: I'm not against obviously vaccines. I just I think it's 464 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: well now that now that they finally said, if you 465 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 1: have the vaccine, you don't have to wear the mask 466 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: and all that, right, how do you again, actually said, 467 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: how do we How do I prove that? You know? 468 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: And that's that sounds like just a bullshit thing. You 469 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: can't actually enforce it unenforceable. And that's the thing. It's 470 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: either one way or they or another. Like Gottlieb called 471 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 1: me an anti vaccine, I'm like, how the funk are 472 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: you getting off like this?

I 480 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: don't know, but you are also at the same time, like, 481 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,479 Speaker 1: if I, you know, get something illness out of this 482 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 1: and something happens, that's on me, right, it's on you 483 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 1: if you don't get it.

Was a Wall Street 494 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: Journal story, and they said that investigators found nine point 495 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: three million comments supporting net neutrality used fictitious identities, most 496 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: submitted by one California college student majoring in computer science. 497 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: It's good, it's good. Do you think there's somebody in 498 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: the mallam militia that we can get? Yeah? I can't. 499 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: I don't think say I want bought fast but but 500 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: or I certainly want to pay for them. But you know, 501 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: if you can do it, boy, that'd be funny. It 502 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't be funny if I all of a sudden woke 503 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: up and there's like, you know eight You know, I've 504 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 1: been pretty solid around fifty thousand, give or take a 505 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: gun up, gone down, whatever, I haven't really I pick 506 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: up a few. I lose if we lost a lot 507 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: when we uh during the because of the third Rail, 508 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: ma man, some of the leftists, Yeah, they got upset 509 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 1: with me, and the snowflakes get upset with they bailed chip. 510 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: But but no, that's what I need. That's what I 511 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: need in the mallam militia. I need a California college student, 512 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: or New York or New Jersey or Massachusetts college student 513 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: majoring in computer science to come up with nine point 514 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: three millions or whatever. Let's say they said, this is 515 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 1: a nineteen year old student was responsible for seven point 516 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: seven million comments generated using websites that create names, he said, 517 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: and physical addresses and email addresses. So there you go, 518 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: as Paul Harvey would say, now you know the rest 519 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: of the story. Remember that. Now. I just tell my 520 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 1: wife this. You know, she loves reading. When we buy 521 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 1: stuff on the internet, look at the reviews on Amazon 522 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 1: or whatever, and see what you know people are saying 523 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,479 Speaker 1: and or Yelp to find restaurants. And I'm always like, 524 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know that that's legit or not. 525 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: I I am so cynical, oh ye of little faith 526 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: that I'm like, well, is that the blue pill or 527 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: is that the red pill? I think that's the red pill. 528 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 1: I don't think. I think we're going further down the 529 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: rabbit hole on that one. Yeah, alright, what else? Something else? 530 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: I wanted to mention before we get the pop quiz. Uh. 531 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: There was a somewhat recent poll from this came from 532 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: the Center for American Political Studies at Harvard University and 533 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: the Harris Pool and it revealed that six of Americans 534 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: believe that cancel culture, you know, the the boycotting, pressuring, 535 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: etcetera of people for their past or current verbal statements 536 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: UH is a threat to their freedom. And seven agree 537 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: that there is a problem of very importance, but no 538 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: one's doing anything about it. So I thought that was 539 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: it was a problem, but you know, everyone's kind of like, yeah, 540 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: it's and on the side of the right, I mean, 541 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: what are you supposed to do it? Though? Right? How 542 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: do you stop? You can't really stop it. You can, 543 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: but it comes with consequences, and there's not a lot 544 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: of people that can do it with reckless abandoned or 545 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 1: have either a safety net or do it with a parachute. 546 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: Like like a guy like um, he's come on the show, 547 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: Leo Terrell. He's he's a Democrat, he's a liberal, but 548 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: he's called out ship that he completely disagrees with. But 549 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: I think in today's world, because he's older and because 550 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: he's an attorney, he can get away with a lot 551 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: of those things, whereas if the individual is younger, and 552 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: I also think if the individual is younger and white, 553 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: no chance. Yeah. Well Leo, like but Leo gets called 554 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 1: out to like you know, and I he he he's 555 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: talked about this, but he's being canceled though. No. But 556 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: when you're a black guy and you're you know, you're 557 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 1: out out there, Oh, you shouldn't be doing that, you know, like, well, 558 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: you come on ridiculous. Yeah, but I mean you can't 559 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: have any you can't have any other thoughts other than 560 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: the group thinking. I mean no, I mean, look at 561 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: what's her name, J. K Rowling's right, Like, she's talked 562 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: about sexual orientation and gender assignments, and god forbid you 563 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 1: get all these fucking groups that try to cancel her. 564 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: It's like, you know, fuck you.

No, you you have to properly wash off 592 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 1: the dishes. Uh, and you have to scrub the dishes 593 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: once in the sink. And then the dishwasher is the 594 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: final nuclear option where it makes everything pure again. But 595 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna actually, I'm telling you when this radio thing 596 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: in this podcast and I'm going into professional dishwashing.

I don't have to be 606 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: a good tipper because no one knows who I am. 607 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: But I'm an adequate tipper.
