Speaker 1: they're like in it, you know. I guess, I mean,

25
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: I guess, you know hillbilly being a hillbilly isn't exclusive

26
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,120

00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 1: there are the artists who are just you can tell

00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,000

42
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: happy someone brought it back to the way. So you're

43
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: just saying it's overrated because the hype around it is

44
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: just you're just just exhausted from it. Me. Yeah, I

45
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,000

Speaker 1: omage ships. It's like fun that it's not even that good.

54
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: Where are the Wire Musicals? You know what I'm saying?

55
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: The funny, funnier Yeah, the Wire Musical and good. Yeah,

56
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: actually got some of the cast. It was awesome. It

57
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,799
Speaker 1: was an actual thing. You should lick it up. They

58
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 1: did do the Wire Musical, Yeah, didn't. It had a

59
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: I think it was just a video that was like, well,

60
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: not the whole thing, but in it wasn't there like

61
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: there was a musical. Would it sounds dope? What's underrated

62
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: underrated as Mine Hunters on Netflix? I decided to go

63
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: with overrated and underrated on Netflix. Mine Hunters. You gotta

64
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: check it out. It's about these dudes who are trying

65
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: to understand like it's like in like the seventies or eighties,

66
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: I think, and they're trying to understand why it was

67
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: the sixties. They're trying to understand why these murders, these

68
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: sequence murders they keep calling them, keep happening. It's like

69
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: before we came up with the term for serial killers.

70
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: And it's the first dudes who came up with the

71
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: idea of profiling serially. Yeah, because like before, everyone's just

72
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: like they're just deprave. Then they're born that way. But

73
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: it's all about is morality something that we're born into

74
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: or is it something that we're taught? And I love

75
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: conversations like that. Where do you come down on that

76
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: it's something that we're taught. Like I don't believe Charles

77
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 1: Manson was born a killer. I think that. I mean,

78
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 1: if you look at his life. It's probably like one

79
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 1: of the most fucked up ways to grow up as

80
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: a kid. Uh. And I think that that leads to

81
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: the kind of repercussions that we get. I think society

82
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 1: plays a bigger role in the monsters that it creates,

83
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 1: that it's willing to accept h nature versus nurture. Yeah,

84
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: I personally think we're all born killers, and then we

85
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: have to not to do that. How do you feel

86
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: about homosexuality? Let us know that sword, Um, well, all right, yeah,

87
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 1: how do I feel about homosexual way to Sarah? Hu

88
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,159
Speaker 1: could be that one. Oh Sarah, Sarah, Sarah so good

89
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: at the dodge. We're just watching her deal with the

90
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 1: fallout from Trump's condolences to military families. Uh, condolences in quotes,

91
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: scared quotes. Yeah, all right, So we're gonna do five

92
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: stories again, five stories were keeping an eye on. We're

93
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 1: gonna start off with driving deaths on US roads are

94
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: up for a second year in a row, which if

95
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: you're not following back to back, right, um, if you

96
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: if you don't follow trends in US road deaths, Uh,

97
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 1: they have been going steadily down for uh many years

98
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: as cars have gotten safer and safer and safer. Um.

99
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: And then for the past two years they just it's

100
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: been sort of an upwards spike and they're trying to

101
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: figure out why this is happening. Um, apparently we are

102
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: speed eating and drinking a little bit more. Uh. Maybe

103
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,239
Speaker 1: in reaction to the safeness of the cars, were like, well,

104
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: we can get away with this ship. No, nothing's gonna

105
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: kill me now. But we're not doing it that much

106
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 1: more than usual. We're not drinking and speeding that much

107
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: more than we did in the past. It's like up

108
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 1: two percent, and the deaths are up way more than

109
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: that umo percent uh year of year, which is crazy. Uh.

110
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 1: So they think it has to do with big surprise smartphones,

111
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: which smartphone use in that time period has gone from

112
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 1: sevent to eight of the US population. Uh. And they

113
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 1: point to the trend that we have stopped talking on

114
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: our smartphones. We we used to talk, and that that

115
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 1: was the thing that you would get in trouble for, right,

116
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 1: like talking on your right But uh, that is apparently

117
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 1: way safer than any of the ship we're doing now,

118
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: which is texting, uh, getting on Twitter, checking Facebook, Instagram. Um, yeah,

119
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: all that ship is it requires way more attention than

120
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: you know, having Yeah, just like yelling at your phone.

121
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's the We can blame it on the millennials. Uh,

122
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: I was worried there for a second, but yeah, it's

123
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: definitely the millennials. Um. And sort of a hidden facet

124
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: of this trend is that the increase in fatalities has

125
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: actually been mostly among people outside of the cars. So

126
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: the cars have gotten exactly you're you're uh serial pedestrian, right,

127
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: I'm one of the only five people that walks in

128
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: l A right that isn't homeless. Um. But yeah, so

129
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: basically the cars have gotten so safe that, uh, we're

130
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: basically indestructible. Go test that theory out. But people because

131
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: they are paying less attention. We pay attention. Like when

132
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: you're concentrating on your phone, you can keep track of

133
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: like one thing with your out of your peripheral vision. Uh.

134
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: And you know, so you can like look at traffic

135
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: that you're in and keep track of like the cars

136
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: that are around you. But you're like, cpu doesn't make

137
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: room for like someone crossing the street or bicyclists or motorcyclists. Um, okay,

138
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: allow me to deposit a question. Yeah, please if you're

139
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 1: texting on your phone and you're not looking up. And

140
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 1: then this dude is texting on his phone while he's walking,

141
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: and then you guys hit each other. Who's that phone? Really? Um? Both? Probably?

142
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean the dude is walking is dead,

143
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: so so he's not he's not around to go to

144
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: prison to litigate, right. Um. But yeah, so I mean

145
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: that's that that's the thing to watch out for. Walk

146
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 1: all the time. Oh yeah, yeah, no, you're you ever

147
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,559
Speaker 1: tripped though you were walking into run into ship. I

148
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: ran into a baby once, like a baby that was

149
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: just on the loose. It was on It was in

150
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: a carriage, and the parents started yelling at me, and

151
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, watch your baby carriage. You did

152
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: the unwalking here speech to the parents. Um. Yeah, so

153
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: pay the attention. Um, what's next? Up next? Trump is

154
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: fucking up comforting military families. All he would need is

155
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: like a script of like, here are acceptable things to say,

156
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 1: and here is the name of the person you're calling.

157
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: I think twenty Americans have been killed in action since

158
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: he became commander in chief in January. Uh, and he

159
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: is sucking it up. He hasn't bothered to get that

160
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: script or learned the names of the people he's calling,

161
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: and he's so wild because the dude is black and

162
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: his name is David Johnson. I feel like Trump could

163
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 1: David Oh, he could have just taken a guess and

164
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: he would have gotten it right. He probably yeah, with

165
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: his racist as he probably would assume the last last

166
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: name was Johnson's, like Lieutenant Johnson, thank you, sir, would

167
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: have been yeah. So like with that story. So basically,

168
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 1: we talked last week about how Niger there was like

169
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: an ambush that killed some Green Berets and Trump has

170
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: not acknowledged it, you know, for what like twelve days

171
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: or something. He finally reached out to the family of

172
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: one of the soldiers who was killed, uh, and and

173
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 1: told the his his wife who's pregnant, that you know,

174
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 1: her husband knew what he signed up for in and

175
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: in his in his call to like to send his condolences.

176
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: So yeah, he's sucking up the most basic ship. And

177
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: then also there are also people who would listening to

178
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: the call were saying he didn't even actually know his name.

179
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: He kept saying, you're a guy, You're a guy. You know,

180
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: it must be sad your guy, Like really yeah, man,

181
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: that's that's insulting. Man. Uh yeah, Like I'm somebody who

182
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: really is bad at remembering people's names and like being

183
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: like you're your guy over there is not that's not smooth.

184
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, trumpet them like your dude, uh yeah, your husband, right,

185
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: you're a guy there, your guy there? Ye. Do you

186
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 1: think he would have gotten away with that? Probably at

187
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: this point, I mean probably nothing can stick to this dude.

188
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:36,319
Speaker 1: If he had said, you know, your husband was the

189
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: realist nig alive, like I think it would be okay, yeah, yeah,

190
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: probably probably fine. He's better than being like yeah, he

191
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 1: knew what he was getting into. Uh. And there was

192
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 1: a congresswoman apparently present with the wife they're comforting her,

193
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: who heard the call and was like, oh, this is

194
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 1: not good and came out and said so. And we

195
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 1: just watched the AS conference with Sarah Huckabee Sanders Huckerbie

196
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 1: uh Sanders just basically saying that the congresswoman is disgusting

197
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: for having a you know, turned politicized this right event. Oh.

198
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 1: I mean I don't know, I lokey kind of. I

199
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: mean I don't agree with Sarah Huckaby sand Is, but

200
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: I don't know this compress woman. She's looking for FaceTime

201
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,200
Speaker 1: just a little bit, you know what I'm saying. Like

202
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: especially that hat that she was wearing. She's got the

203
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 1: Auntie had it. It was blinged out, bro it was

204
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: when cowboy hat was bling on it. But I mean

205
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: she was there comforting the woman. So it's like, I mean,

206
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: at least she was. Her head was in the right place.

207
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 1: She was, she was like, it's not like she showed

208
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: up for you know, like a photo shoot or whatever.

209
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: And also that's like her swag. She's always weren't that right,

210
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: She's just got dopet. But yeah, I mean the other

211
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: issue with a fallen Soldiers was that Trump even dragged

212
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: out John Kelly's son who had was killed in action

213
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: to say Obama never called him, when in fact, like

214
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 1: he had he had hosted like John Kelly, like at

215
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 1: a breakfast at the White House from old Star Families.

216
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: And you know, there's not a lot to know like

217
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: why exactly Trump decided to say something like that. There's

218
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 1: rumors that Sarah Huckaby Sanders may have had something to

219
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 1: do with it, um like you know, uh, suggesting that

220
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,199
Speaker 1: that was something worth saying. But you know, I know

221
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: John Kelly is not fucking happy with having his son

222
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: being used like as a talking point for Trump, especially

223
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: when it's something probably so I mean, man ship is

224
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: it's just fucking insensitive. It's inhumane to do something like that.

225
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: And who knows what those conversations are like now if

226
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: like John Kelly is like, yo, to keep my son's name.

227
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: But I don't know, I'm almost definitely he said that

228
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 1: word for work, Like yeah, like I said earlier, we

229
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 1: were saying he's I know John Kelly, which I don't. Yeah,

230
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: that's probably what he was saying. Um, yeah, and uh.

231
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: Sarah hug Aby Sanders at the press conference was like, well,

232
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: I think the General is just mad about people politicizing

233
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: his son's death, and like it was like, wait, you've

234
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 1: like kind of worked yourself in such a circle that

235
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: you didn't realize you're talking about yourself now, Like you

236
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: guys are the ones who politicize his death every day,

237
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: well not every day, but it looks exhausted. But yeah,

238
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 1: so I don't know. It just seems like maybe Trump

239
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: is a person who doesn't know what to say in

240
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: that situation because he doesn't have any experience with sacrifice,

241
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: like sacrificing for his country. That idea is like totally

242
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: foreign to him, his idea of sacrifices that he gave

243
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: up his career to be president. Uh, but I feel

244
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 1: like he equates everything to a dollar figure, which is

245
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: probably why he apparently offered the father of a different

246
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: fallen soldier twenty dollars, which I guess, like I was

247
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 1: saying he was struggling financially, So in theory, uh, not

248
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: the worst thing in the world all actually kind of

249
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: a generous thing. But then he never followed through until

250
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: the guy told the media that Trump had offered him

251
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: dollars and never followed through, and then he was like,

252
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, I know that checks in the mail.

253
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: So yeah, in summation, even a layup, and even when

254
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: he's like doing the right thing, offering someone dollars who's

255
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: struggling with money, even then he manages to funk it up.

256
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: All right, we are going to take a quick break,

257
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: and when we come back, opioids and we're back. So

258
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: in this segment, I wanted to talk about a sixty

259
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: minutes Washington Post investigation, UH sixty minutes there their report

260
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: on UH Sunday of the Week that this is airing UH,

261
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: and it was pretty incredible. There's been some fallouts since then,

262
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: and this is just a story that we're incredibly interested in, uh,

263
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 1: just because it's an ongoing health crisis in America. It's

264
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: a you know, uh, my wife works in pain management

265
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: and is like dealing with people who were hooked on

266
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: opioids every day. So this is like, you know, a

267
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: battle that she has to deal with on a regular basis.

268
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: And so so the story basically was an interview with

269
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: a x d E, a UH agent who's basically a whistleblower.

270
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: His name is Joe Ramisz. And wait, any relation to

271
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: Steve No, I don't, I don't think so he what

272
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: did he say? It was like a nine eleven. He

273
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: said that he was like almost in a tower or

274
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: something like that, or like almost got on the plane.

275
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: It was something where he lied and then like quickly

276
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: got to anyway side that is such a weird story though,

277
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: so he was just to get more side checked. He

278
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: was on CURB recently and I was like, how the

279
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: funk are you working again? I thought you got fucking

280
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: blacklisted that he did the last season of the league

281
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 1: after that. So anyways, uh, this d A was a

282
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,400
Speaker 1: blower was saying that pharmaceutical companies knew that they were

283
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: pushing dangerous, addictive drugs out in the communities, that it

284
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 1: was killing people, and uh, you know, the DA was

285
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: trying to stop them, and distributors and these pharmaceutical companies

286
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: basically ignored all these requirements that were putting in place

287
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 1: to report suspicious orders, like when a town of a

288
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,719
Speaker 1: thousand people get in order for like five million opioid pills,

289
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 1: was just like yo, dude, Uh that makes no sense

290
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,720
Speaker 1: at all. Uh. So the d A started cracking down

291
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: on these major drug companies, and obviously in America, that

292
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: becomes a problem because major drug companies have lots of

293
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 1: money and really really rich people who whose wealth and

294
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 1: fortune is at stake. So these companies complained to Congress

295
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: and the Justice Department and basically used their money to

296
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: pressure them to get the d e A to go

297
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 1: easier on them. Um. So there were two reactions to

298
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: this and the d e A. So the whistleblower and

299
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: his team are like, well, funk that people are actually

300
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: like dying here, like on a day to day basis,

301
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: people are dying. Um. The other reaction is actually a

302
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,719
Speaker 1: good case study and how impossible it is to like

303
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:40,680
Speaker 1: solve problems in America because these big corporations basically went

304
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 1: after other d e A attorneys and we're like, what

305
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: are they paying? You will pay you double. You come

306
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: work for us and tell us how like tell us

307
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: basically the weaknesses in the cases that the d e

308
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: A is trying to bring, so that like the d

309
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,200
Speaker 1: e A was fucked that, like all these dudes were

310
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: just uh going joining the other side for insane amounts

311
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: of money. Yeah. So in two thousand thirteen, Congress crippled

312
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 1: the d's ability to enforce the Controlled Substance Act, which

313
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 1: is how they were kind of enforcing all this ship

314
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: up to that point. Uh. They characterize it as a

315
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 1: way to ensure pain medication was accessible for patients who

316
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 1: needed it, which was not America's problem at that right there,

317
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 1: like we need the fiends to have easier access, right,

318
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 1: But it basically just took away the DAS ability to

319
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 1: freeze huge suspicious shipments of prescription drugs. And people knew that,

320
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 1: like completely knew that this is what was going to happen.

321
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 1: A two thousand fifteen Justice Department memo said the bill

322
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:48,199
Speaker 1: quote could actually result in increased diversion, abuse and public

323
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 1: health and safety consequences. A K people die. So the

324
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: villain of this story is the key sponsor of that

325
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: bill in Congress is a I named Tom Marino from Pennsylvania.

326
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: He's in his fourth term, who until recently, until like

327
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 1: a few days ago, was actually Trump's nominee for US

328
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 1: Drugs are uh huh, the position that is supposed to

329
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: be in charge of fighting the opioid epidemic the top right.

330
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: That is who sponsored the bill and uh also the

331
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,959
Speaker 1: his other big cause other than making it easier for

332
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: people to get opioids UH in the midst of the

333
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 1: opioid epidemic, is trying to UH is voting against any

334
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 1: marijuana legalization. He voted like tons of times against bipartisan

335
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 1: measures to prevent the Justice Department from going after UH

336
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: legal medical marijuana businesses. Uh. He voted against a measure

337
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 1: to allow veterans affairs doctors to recommend medical marijuana to

338
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: their patients. And like that's you know, my wife used

339
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 1: to work in a veterans hospital, and like they're they

340
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,439
Speaker 1: need all the help they can get because you know,

341
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 1: veterans are coming back from more they need. They have

342
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: like lots of pain they're dealing with psychologically and physically. Uh.

343
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 1: And he also voted against a measure that would have

344
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 1: loosened some of the restrictions on CBD oil, which is

345
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 1: a non psychoactive derivative of the cannabis plant that allows

346
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,640
Speaker 1: that is like seen as incredibly promising for treating severe

347
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:28,239
Speaker 1: forms of childhood epilepsy and also pain pain. Right, it

348
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: gets it gets rid of the thing the one thing

349
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 1: that like they could be objecting to, which is like

350
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 1: it gets people high. It doesn't get people high. Yeah,

351
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: it's it's purely like well, and the thing is too

352
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 1: there are a lot of pharmaceutic comani who are trying

353
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,959
Speaker 1: to synthesize their own version of CBD to try and

354
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 1: get the jump on the legal marijuana industry too, and

355
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: you know, trying to jam people up in court over

356
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: this ship too. Right. So the reason the pharmaceutical industry

357
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 1: is fighting this is because marijuana legalization in Colorado led

358
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 1: to a complete reversal of the opio overdose deaths in

359
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: that state. After Colorado's legalization of recreational cannabis, opioid related

360
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 1: deaths decreased more than six percent in the following two years.

361
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: Um So, it's been shown to be incredibly effective and

362
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: like a good way to treat pain that doesn't involve

363
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,120
Speaker 1: the risk of getting people hooked on drugs that might

364
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: kill them. But why would that make people mad? Jack,

365
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: I don't get it right, that's in the problem. And like, yeah,

366
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 1: the other thing is like and like states with medical

367
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: marijuana laws, they they prescribe less pain pills because people

368
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: are like, oh, I have the option to do something

369
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 1: where I'm not just you know, melted off opioids all day.

370
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 1: They're gonna go for that. And it just shows you

371
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 1: who's really like one of the biggest driving forces behind

372
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 1: this anti legalization movement. It's clearly the pharmaceutical companies, because

373
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 1: we don't know the healing power of weed. Right. Pain

374
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 1: killer prescriptions dropped in the seventeen states that had medical

375
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: marijuana laws in place by two thousand thirteen. Uh, pain

376
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 1: killer prescriptions dropped drastically, so they were making less money. Uh.

377
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: The average doctor in a legal pot state prescribed one

378
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 1: thousand and twenty six fewer doses of pain killers in

379
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: a given year. Um So, Tom Marino, who, like I said,

380
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: up until this sixty minutes report was Trump's pick for

381
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: the drugs are because his main issue is prosecuting marijuana, which,

382
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: by the way, the Jeff Sessions main issue. He thinks

383
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: marijuana should be treated like more. Uh like, we're treated

384
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 1: as a bigger crime than it ever was. What's your theory.

385
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,640
Speaker 1: He's a very small dude, So, like I've hung out

386
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 1: with a lot of small dudes when they get high,

387
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: they get funked up and stupid. I think it's because

388
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 1: he can't hang he can, so he's taking it out

389
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: on marijuana. He like kept trying it, and like I

390
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: thought it would like make him happier and like more

391
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 1: laid back, but it just like made him like really

392
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 1: freaking just end up all the demons he had inside,

393
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,919
Speaker 1: Like you're poking up, Jeff, You're like you look like

394
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,679
Speaker 1: a keyble or health. He doesn't like it, so he's

395
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 1: taking it out on everybody who's having fun on it. Yeah,

396
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 1: and uh so. Tom Arino, like I said earlier, is

397
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: a representative for Pennsylvania, where hospitalizations for heroin overdoses have

398
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: quadrupled since two thousand ten. Overdoses for prescriptions like oxy

399
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: cotton and biking in are even higher. The total number

400
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,880
Speaker 1: of overdoses is nearly four times the number of fatal

401
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: traffic accidents in Pennsylvania. All the fuck, I mean, how

402
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: are you even a fucking human right where you you're

403
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,639
Speaker 1: you're firstancing this in your own state. You can just

404
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,879
Speaker 1: go and be a total shill for the pharmaceutical comies

405
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 1: like this, and it's completely at odds with your duties

406
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: as a representative of Congress for the people of your state.

407
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 1: Because that vacation home in New Hampshire bro exactly so sad.

408
00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: But like yo again, you know money is when he's

409
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,719
Speaker 1: a corrupting force, and you know they're dealing with the

410
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 1: heads of the pharmaceutical like companies who like they're like, oh,

411
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 1: we're friends. You know, he was a good guy to have,

412
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 1: like that good guide network, when he's probably not even

413
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: thinking of like what that what this translate to in

414
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: his state, He's like, well, these people are hooked on

415
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: drugs anyway, right, yeah, And like to give you an

416
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: example of how he thinks about drug use and uh

417
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: drug addicts, he recommends for non violent drug offenders they

418
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 1: should receive criminal charges that will be held until they

419
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 1: agree to force to hospitalization, which the hospital that he

420
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: is like recommending. He has called hospital slash prisons, like

421
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 1: as a verbatim, a hospital slash prison. Uh. Yeah, So

422
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 1: he shouldn't just be withdrawing from the drugs Are nomination.

423
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: He should withdraw, resign from representing Pennsylvania, and you know,

424
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: be forced to work for free and like a rehab

425
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: center for the rest of his life. Yeah. But I mean,

426
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 1: so it's not all bad news. Uh. There is a

427
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: PBS documentary that was just released on uh, southern California

428
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: pain clinics that are actually doing a good job of

429
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: fighting back against the opioid epidemic. It's actually the Kaiser Permanente.

430
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: It's like the company my wife works for, and they're

431
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: you know, using all these other ways of treating pain,

432
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 1: like they're they're trying to go after it. Basically opioids

433
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: like mask the pain, whereas you know, the pain has

434
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:42,199
Speaker 1: a cause and so like a good pain physician is

435
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 1: supposed to go after the cause of the pain, not

436
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: just like sort of cover it up. Uh. And it

437
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,400
Speaker 1: was only ever supposed to be used for like surgical

438
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,679
Speaker 1: pain or broken bones or like pain that you know

439
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: is going to eventually be over. And the problem with

440
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: like the way it's being used currently is that people

441
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: will like use it for a bad back or something

442
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: like don't do yoga or like pain, like just take

443
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 1: these pills and you know, right off the rest of

444
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 1: the day. Right, growing up Adventus, like I would always

445
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 1: get taken to these health seminars and ship like that,

446
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 1: And I remember at one of them, this woman said

447
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 1: something and put up this image that like stayed with

448
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: me when she said, like, American medicine is this. It's

449
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 1: mopping the floor while the water is still running. And

450
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 1: it's like an image of like a sink that's overflowing,

451
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: and it's just like doctors like wiping the floor. And

452
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: and I was like, listening to this fucking epidemic, is

453
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 1: that's exactly what it is. Is Is they're prescribing this problem

454
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: rather than trying to get to the actual cause of it.

455
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: And it's just leading to just a ton more of bullshit,

456
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 1: like because just making so much money right exactly, rather

457
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: than solving the issue. Yeah, I had an eighth grade

458
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,360
Speaker 1: history teacher who was like, you know why potts illegal

459
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 1: and alcohol isn't. It's because you can grow a great

460
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 1: batch of weed without the government's help. But you can't

461
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: like alcohol that you brew in your bathtub is going

462
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 1: to taste like ship. So they can't ensure that they're

463
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,640
Speaker 1: the ones making money off of pot, whereas they can

464
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 1: make sure that they're making money off the alcohol. And

465
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 1: I think like that, I think about that uh so

466
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 1: often because it really like applies to so many things,

467
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 1: like the government can't make money or like these you

468
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 1: know Fortune five companies can't make money off of yoga.

469
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,360
Speaker 1: Uh they can make money off of you know, these

470
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 1: pills being overprescribed. Well, it's interesting that that whole debate

471
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 1: too is part of like inside the legalization argument, especially

472
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 1: in California, is sort of like some some people are

473
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: weary of legalization because that would suddenly open the door

474
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 1: to corporations to begin mass producing marijuana, mass growing operations

475
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: and just like blowout entire warehouses and just get like,

476
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 1: you know, a huge harvest that would eventually that that's

477
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: what small time growers are like, Yo, this is not

478
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: this is not the legalization opens up us. It's a

479
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: slippery door too, because that allows for what you're talking about, Jack,

480
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: is where Congress are these companies rather are saying, hey, well,

481
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: we're making like this super lab weed, Like that's so

482
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: fire like you're and we're gonna make it so cheap

483
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 1: because we can grow it in mass So it's yeah,

484
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 1: it's it's a very it's a it's a complex thing too.

485
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: Still smoke mom and pop weed our tea and the

486
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: weed for like, yeah, that's silver like weed. Yeah. We

487
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: I don't spoke anymore, but the last time I smoked

488
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: weed had gotten like so fucking strong. I was just

489
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: like completely I went Jeff Sessions, Uh, yeah, it's definitely

490
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 1: whoever the comedian is who is like, we're smoking cancer medicine,

491
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: Like that's how strong it is. That was definitely felt

492
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 1: true the last time I smoked. All Right, So that's

493
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: that's all I've got on opioids. Anything else before we

494
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 1: go to another break. I think what's interesting is when

495
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: you've talked about in the past about how your wife

496
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 1: deals with a lot of people who are hooked on

497
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 1: opioids and how it's it's even a very difficult situation

498
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: for doctors when you have to tell somebody who is

499
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: addicted to opioids that you are no longer giving them,

500
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: You're no longer prescribing them that drug, even though it's

501
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: for their own benefit, Like I'm sure that that's a

502
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 1: very tough thing for someone to deal with, and you

503
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 1: get I'm sure very aggressive. Oh yeah, they're they're inheriting

504
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: a patient population who are already hooked on these drugs

505
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: and who got hooked on them by doctors prescribing them.

506
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: So like they're not gonna be happy like somebody who

507
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 1: is a literal drug addict. And this is me talking

508
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 1: like this isn't what she says. Uh she can't like

509
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: talk about specific patients obviously because of uh doctor patient confidentiality,

510
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 1: but like just observing myself, they're inheriting a patient population

511
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: who are like drug addicts there, you know, the people

512
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: who like rob people on the street and ship and

513
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: like break into cars to steal the car stereo to

514
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: boost it at a Are you talking about anybody walking

515
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,959
Speaker 1: around with the big boom box you know I'm talking

516
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 1: about like yeah whatever, But like so it's like drug

517
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 1: addicts can be scary people and so like standing in

518
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: standing in between them and being like, yo, you can't

519
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: have your drug, and yeah, like it can be a danger.

520
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: Especially the pattern that they're used to is go to doctor.

521
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: Doctor gives you drugs and then you're like good nah,

522
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: and then if the pattern has changed, like, my god,

523
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 1: I can really imagine that kinds of I mean, fun man,

524
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: I get mad when I don't eat, you know what

525
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah, No, Miles as a monster

526
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 1: when it doesn't eat. I mean, it's really scary. I

527
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 1: think my final thought on it is that I feel

528
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,719
Speaker 1: like every black barber is vindicated right now because for

529
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 1: years they've been telling us that the government is behind

530
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: the drug problem in America, and they're like, hell, yeah,

531
00:31:56,560 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 1: I told you what I say. Yeah, you know what

532
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: I've been saying. I've been saying it for years. And

533
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 1: the now sixty minutes does it all of a sudden

534
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: everyone wants to believe sixty minutes, I think, go to

535
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 1: your black barbershops. Don't bind of CBS is bullshit. So

536
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: just now that uh Marino has, you know, withdrawn his

537
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:21,719
Speaker 1: name from consideration as uh US drugs are, that means

538
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: that we have no head of the d e A.

539
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: I think there's like an acting administrator, but there's no

540
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: head of the d e A. Uh No, drugs are

541
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: no head of Health and Human Services. And that's in

542
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: the midst of you know, one of the worst drug epidemics.

543
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 1: I think they say it is the worst drug epidemic

544
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 1: in the history of the United States in terms of

545
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: lives lost. Um. And Trump, you know, he had like

546
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: Christie was in charge of what was it a panel

547
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 1: because yeah, yeah, and the Opioid Commission. And he came

548
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 1: out and was like, Okay, this is a huge emergency.

549
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: There's a nine eleven every week and a half, putting

550
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 1: it in terms that a East Coast politician can understand,

551
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: and uh, how many how many people fit in Yankee Stadium? Uh?

552
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 1: And so Trump came out of that meeting and was like,

553
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: all right, I am calling this a national emergency. We

554
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 1: are in a state of emergency. But he didn't like

555
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: officially declare it. I don't know if he even realized that,

556
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: like he needed to officially like that it was an

557
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 1: official declaration. Michael Scott in the office and they're like,

558
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 1: you have to declare bankruptcy, and he just goes out

559
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: the office like, I declare bankruptcy and right, right, it's

560
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 1: an official declaration that like frees up funding and uh,

561
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: he still has yet to do that. Um. I guess

562
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: the good news is that it is being prosecuted at

563
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 1: the local level. Uh, you know, they're arresting doctors who

564
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: are you know, just prescribing the ship out of these

565
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: pills and actually like having people die. Um. Two thousand fifteen,

566
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:08,399
Speaker 1: we had our first doctor convicted of murder um, which

567
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:12,479
Speaker 1: is that's wild man, Yeah, being convicted of just straight

568
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: up murder, not even like manslaughter. Second again, but at

569
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:20,399
Speaker 1: the same time, like that is a really localized way

570
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 1: of attacking the problem. We're just letting the companies who

571
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: are you know, providing the pills continue to do so,

572
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: and just getting mad at the doctors who are you know,

573
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: like we said, dealing with drug addicts who are fucking

574
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: angry and like you know, physically threatening and you know,

575
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: saying like give me the drugs that are my right,

576
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 1: you know. So just like I was saying earlier, you know,

577
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 1: Stranger Things doesn't talk about this, but a show that

578
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: does is The Wire, and they talk about like how

579
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: like the police keep focusing on like those low level,

580
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,120
Speaker 1: low level, mid level drug dealers and that's never gonna

581
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 1: solve the problem. That's kind of what these doctors are, right,

582
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: Doctors are your bodies. We can keep putting Bodie in jail,

583
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,760
Speaker 1: but god, there must be a new Bodie. Rest in peace, Bodie.

584
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna take a quick break and we'll

585
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 1: be right back, and we're back. Uh. So I wanted

586
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 1: to talk in our last two stories. Uh, I wanted

587
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 1: to talk about the sweepstakes to be the location of

588
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 1: Amazon h Q two. Uh. And then Edgar, you wanted

589
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: to talk about Gordon Haywards. Oh, I'm gonna talk about it.

590
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:47,760
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I don't know. So I got that base ready.

591
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 1: There are all these towns like from Denver, which probably

592
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: heard of two, uh, down to Frisco, Texas that are uh,

593
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: part of the sweep steaks. Amazon has announced that they

594
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 1: are going to open their second headquarters, their first headquarters

595
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 1: obviously in Seattle. They're like, we're looking for the location

596
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: of our h Q two and you know, come at

597
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 1: us with your offers. And they've kind of opened up

598
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 1: this public bidding process where people are trying to woo

599
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,720
Speaker 1: them via viral videos. Uh. We actually have a clip

600
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:26,479
Speaker 1: from the viral video from Frisco, Texas. Uh city you've

601
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 1: probably never heard of, but that thinks that they can

602
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 1: get the second headquarters of Amazon. There. Amazon, you're growing

603
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,759
Speaker 1: your business and we want to grow with you. That's

604
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 1: why we think Frisco, Texas is the perfect fit for

605
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:47,240
Speaker 1: h Q two. Here in the city of Frisco, we live, work,

606
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 1: and play by our motto we have called the Energy

607
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 1: of Frisco. We've we've got it the flu, the Frisco flu.

608
00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:00,840
Speaker 1: Best place, best place to raise an athlete, best place

609
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: to relocate your business. According to my mom, Frisco is

610
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 1: primed to have you prime like Amazon Prime. Hey Alexa,

611
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 1: what where should Amazon located HQ two in Frisco, Texas?

612
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:21,359
Speaker 1: Oh shit, Frisco. What an idea. So by the way,

613
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 1: literally every viral video created by every city ends with

614
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: that exact same bit where they're like, hey, Alexa, it's

615
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,240
Speaker 1: just like this sort of it reminds me of early

616
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 1: twentieth century, Like America is being sucked dry by these monopolies,

617
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 1: and you know these small towns like they they've like

618
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: shut down all these mom and pop stores and uh,

619
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: you know, basically drank everyone's milkshake from you know, taking

620
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: all the resources from these small towns and what do

621
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 1: you what's going on pulling them from pulling them to

622
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: like Seattle in Arkansas. So this is what we're left

623
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,960
Speaker 1: with is like a sweepstakes to get the big monopoly

624
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:06,879
Speaker 1: to like come to your town and matter again. Yeah right,

625
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's like a twenty one century version

626
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,879
Speaker 1: of like Willy Wonka or like some Dickensie and Tail,

627
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 1: where like people are just like hoping against hope that

628
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 1: they get like the golden ticket that is about you

629
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: just hit me hard right now. I never thought, Yeah,

630
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:28,400
Speaker 1: everybody's super poor. And then there's this like one giant

631
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 1: like corporate headquarters that is like a you know, golden

632
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,959
Speaker 1: kingdom that you gets to. The movie version makes Willy

633
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 1: Wonka the hero. That's not right. You tear down my

634
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 1: tear down that myth. Well yeah, but I mean that,

635
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: you know, these monopolies are literally like sucking all these

636
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:53,080
Speaker 1: towns across America dry. They're like bleeding them dry by,

637
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:56,320
Speaker 1: you know, to putting all their stores, all their local

638
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 1: commerce out of business. So all we have left is

639
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,399
Speaker 1: like hoping one of them will like come close by

640
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:06,239
Speaker 1: and you know, shine a little light on on your

641
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: sad little town. If water Burger came to my town

642
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: and made like a water Burger park, I play there

643
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:19,840
Speaker 1: every day. Well, So the other issue is that parts

644
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: so the other issue is no such thing as a

645
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: water burger park. But also so Amazon, Like, I don't

646
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 1: think these towns are going to get as much out

647
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:33,280
Speaker 1: of this as they think they're going to. Uh. In Seattle,

648
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: Amazon being located, there's driven rapid gentrification. Uh So now

649
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:42,880
Speaker 1: it's like instead of being like the place that birth grunge,

650
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: it's just a bunch of like rich dorks. Uh and

651
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 1: you know they there will be also lower paying jobs,

652
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 1: but that means that people who will work those lower

653
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 1: paying jobs will be have to move like further and

654
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 1: further out into the exer until uh. You know, there

655
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 1: was this story in the New York Times about a

656
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,840
Speaker 1: person who worked for one of the big tech companies

657
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 1: in like a low wage job and she had to

658
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 1: wake up at two fifteen, take two trains and a

659
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: bus to get to work by seven am because she

660
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 1: couldn't afford anything nearby like where those companies are located.

661
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 1: But what if she wrote the water burger bus, the

662
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 1: water Burger Express, the water burger coaster that just takes

663
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 1: you to the Yeah, I mean much too far. So yeah,

664
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: and again like these jobs are like I beat also

665
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,799
Speaker 1: too very like white collar or like like there are

666
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,279
Speaker 1: many highly skilled jobs that I needed at these companies too,

667
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 1: that might not necessarily serve the communities that it'll make

668
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 1: the mayor super rich, so I understand why the mayors

669
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 1: are like super psyched about this, But good for everybody else.

670
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:57,280
Speaker 1: And also Amazon is demanding and probably gonna get tax

671
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 1: breaks from wherever they end up getting located, so it's

672
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: not like it's the city is gonna get a lot

673
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 1: richer um. So yeah, I mean, obviously it'll be good

674
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,959
Speaker 1: for property values, so you know, there are people who

675
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 1: will get rich besides the mayor, I guess. But a

676
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 1: lot of it just feels like the you know, when

677
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 1: cities are pitching themselves as the location for future Olympics

678
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 1: and then you know, they end up with you know,

679
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 1: people getting displaced and a bunch of uh soccer stadiums

680
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 1: that are just crumbling and uh, you know, uh gondola

681
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 1: tour going over the favelas so that rich people can

682
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 1: ride over the ghetto and like point to all the

683
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: poor people. It's just something that you know, people are

684
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 1: writing about that is I don't know, I find it

685
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,919
Speaker 1: more depressing than other people seem to. Other people seem

686
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 1: to be like what a fun story. Everybody's competing for one.

687
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: It's like, no, everyone's been destroyed by this massive corporation.

688
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: And then ironically they're begging them to be like, okay, well,

689
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 1: can you just show us a little give us something

690
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: short of hope? Yea. I was excited for the start

691
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 1: until you bummed me out and I no longer have

692
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:19,319
Speaker 1: Frisco fever Frisco Yeah, the Frisco flu Frisco fla. But

693
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: despite that sad story, has that changed your enthusiasm about

694
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,800
Speaker 1: talking about Gordon Hayward's horrific leg break? Absolutely not dropped

695
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: the base. Let's end with some fun stuff. Uh. Two

696
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,560
Speaker 1: days ago was my Holy Day, which was opening day

697
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,720
Speaker 1: for the NBA, and I was very excited to watch

698
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 1: the Celtics play the calvs UM. I don't think that

699
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 1: it was an accident that those two teams played each other.

700
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: I think it was intentional, even though the trade didn't

701
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 1: happen yet. I think Adam Silver knew all along. So

702
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: I was very stoked for this high stakes game. Shout

703
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:53,920
Speaker 1: out to young Asparato and then uh, in like about

704
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 1: five minutes into the game, Gordon Hayward landed on his

705
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 1: foot pretty awkwardly and his ankle twisted in the opposite direction,

706
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 1: and they showed it on live television and he's pretty

707
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 1: much out indefinitely, like a hard indefinitely with what they're

708
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 1: calling a fractured ankle. Yeah, but his ankle was pointing

709
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 1: the other direction. Um, it was one of the more

710
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:23,080
Speaker 1: gruesome injuries, like in the history of nationally televised sporting event. Yeah,

711
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 1: they showed it on the jambotron and had to stop

712
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 1: the game for twenty minutes because there was so much

713
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: pandemonium in the stadium. I'm sure people are like dry heaving.

714
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, no one watching horrific leg breaks is like,

715
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,840
Speaker 1: it's like the worst ship to see because you like,

716
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 1: I mean, because you have to imagine, it's hard to

717
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: look at someone's foot twists all day backwards and not

718
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: immediate things like look at your own foot. Who was

719
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,320
Speaker 1: announcing that game, I want to say it was Kevin Harlan.

720
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 1: They knew immediately, but the way they were processing it

721
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,479
Speaker 1: like live was like, oh, he's gone down. Oh god, yeah,

722
00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 1: he's broken his like Gordon Horn, like you want you

723
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 1: knew he was just trying to scream up, Oh my

724
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,840
Speaker 1: fucking guy. But he knew, Like, let me have some

725
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: sense of the most calm person here. All the players,

726
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 1: like you know, like how when someone's injured you try

727
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 1: to go down to like reach out to him. They

728
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 1: did that, saw the injury and just all dispersed, running

729
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:20,840
Speaker 1: away screaming like it was the most insane. Well, it's

730
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,319
Speaker 1: like he knew immediately because when Jaylen Brown still went

731
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,480
Speaker 1: up for the put back dunk and almost landed on

732
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:28,320
Speaker 1: it and then you need to see him like jump,

733
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 1: like hopping on his butt. It was just the most

734
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 1: insane scene. Uh. But that being said, all my friends

735
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 1: showed up late. So with with each person that showed up,

736
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 1: I would stop the game and be like, dude, you

737
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 1: gotta check this shot. And I've been doing that for

738
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 1: like the last two days of showing people. Why are

739
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:49,959
Speaker 1: you obsessed with the horrific? Like what is it about

740
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: it that you're like that they showed it on live television.

741
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 1: It's insane that they were, like, you know, everyone needs

742
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,880
Speaker 1: to see, like the guy had a perfect shot of it,

743
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 1: and it was like suddenly a war in injury happened

744
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 1: in the middle of the sport. It was just like

745
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 1: his leg was not there. I've never like I've never

746
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 1: seen that before. Yeah, I mean the Paul George one

747
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 1: was equally horrific, but they didn't show it like you

748
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,239
Speaker 1: have to like zoom in to see it right. Well,

749
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:16,799
Speaker 1: and you know that also happens pretty frequently, like in

750
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 1: professional soccer to like some fucking nasty's not gonna You're

751
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 1: not gonna get me to watch soccer, Miles. I'm sorry

752
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:24,960
Speaker 1: even not even for the leg breaks, because I can

753
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 1: show you someone's if you thought, if you thought that

754
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 1: Gordon Hayward one is bad, I can show you one

755
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:30,279
Speaker 1: is that you're gonna be like, oh, that was the

756
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,800
Speaker 1: Pixar version of a leg break. I mean, I'm interested.

757
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 1: I got the Darren Darren Aronoski version of a sports

758
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,319
Speaker 1: leg break. I'm going to be confused at the end

759
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: and realized that it's actually a religious movie. It just Darren, Yeah,

760
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:48,240
Speaker 1: it was a mother reference. Um, it's about the creation

761
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 1: of a man. Yeah. I think the other issue is

762
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:54,759
