42
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 1: of garbage. I'm gonna I'm gonna be honest, hung out

43
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: with some Curds shot giant anti aircraft guns on the

44
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: back of jeeps. It was an anti anti tank, anti

45
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: anti building gun too, Like it was like a giant

46
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: recoilist rifle. But like you see him shoot, like I've

47
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: watched a bunch of people shoot a bunch of rockets

48
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: at this point, I don't think I've ever seen someone

49
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: fire a rocket launcher and not have a little bit

50
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: of a smile on their face, right, Like you can

51
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: tell they're always really digging it, enjoying themselves. Kurds are

52
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: sort of the Appealachian folk of the Iraq conflict, right,

53
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 1: Like they're kind of like scrappy and can rig together.

54
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: A yeah, that would be like that, That would be

55
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: one comparison to make. They live up in the mountains.

56
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: Everybody's constantly fucking with them, um, both in like Iraq

57
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 1: and in Turkey and in Iran like like basically for

58
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: the last like thousandish years, have been fighting everybody who

59
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: lives around them and like hiding in the mountains a bunch.

60
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: But they're nice, they're great at cooking, they're cool guys,

61
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: so half like Appelachian people. Yeah, I won't say which

62
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: half it is. I love my Appalachians cool man behind

63
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: the bastards. We'll talk about it at the end of

00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: the show. But just real quick up top, we're really

65
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: excited about having it on. What what's the basic premise

66
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: of the show Everything you don't know about the worst

67
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: people in all of history. So, like we're talking about

68
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: Saddam Hussein, but we're talking about his career as a

69
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: romance novelist. And I read his bizarre novels and review

70
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: them for the crap, very self si aerious romance novelist,

71
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: Like he thought this was going to be what he

72
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: was remembered for. This, this was his He considered himself

73
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: a writer before he was president of a rat Like

74
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,880

78
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: not a joke, no, no, Well, and also the fact

79
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: that like you see all these guys on like the

80
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: far right, the alt right now who are like look

00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: He always had a big leather coat, leather shorts. Everybody

00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: thought he looked like a weirdo other short leather shorts. All.

87
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 1: He loved his leather shorts. That's a decision, that's a choice.

88
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: And he carried a whip everywhere zam zaddy. Yeah, walking

89
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: around his leather outfit and a whip. Okay, I feel

90
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: like you could rock a leather outfit in a Yeah.

91
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: I could definitely rock the leather shorts for sure. I

00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: mean I have leather shorts. I have leather shorts. You

93
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: have leather shorts. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're real short. Oh

94
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: yeah yeah, I'm hanging out the back of them a

95
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 1: little bit. But you know, I gotta hey, look, you know,

96
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 1: you gotta be proud. You gotta work with what you've got.

97
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: That's a direct Hitler quote. Yeah exactly. I'm guessing you

98
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: haven't warned those in front of your mom or else.

99
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: She tells you she made it for me, and then

100
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: she was like fine. This year, she's like, you're your

101
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: decision to look foolish like this with your legs, but

102
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: I guess I would together. And also you have a

103
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: early episode of Behind the Bastards about Hitler the fanboy. Yeah,

104
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 1: he was a big fan of like this weirdo wild

105
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: West novelist called Karl May and like based a lot

106
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 1: of his strategy in World War Two off of these

107
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: wild West books written by a con man. I was

108
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: also I was comparing Hitler to Kanye and Donald Trump.

109
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: We won't have a whole section about their loving that's

110
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: been happening, but my main point was that Hitler was

111
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 1: a narcissist, right for sure? I mean, yeah, who could be?

112
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody could say. And I think part

113
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: of the Hitler's story, and like the story with a

114
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: lot of these dictators, is that there's nothing more dangerous

115
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 1: than a frustrated artist. Like it's it's a good thing

116
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 1: that Kanye has seen success as a musician, because otherwise

117
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: he would be like leading a revolution or something. Um,

118
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: it was just like a better dressed diamond and silk.

119
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: Right as my voice cracks, I think I assume everybody

120
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: knows about his narcissism, but there there's some great pictures

121
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: of him, like behind the scenes, like posing in front

122
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 1: of like mirrors and stuff, like doing different facial expressions

123
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 1: from his speeches. And he was just he was super

124
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: into himself and his image and stuff. And the reason

125
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: he didn't get married until like right before he died

126
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,279
Speaker 1: is he thought it was super important that the women

127
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 1: of Germany see him as available, because he thought that

128
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: his sex appeal to the women of Germany was a

129
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: critical part of his popular just he could he couldn't

130
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: risk alienating women by getting Married's like this is a

131
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: mustache ride. They can't exactly. They've got to know that

132
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: that that Hitler's open for me? Are open? All right, Robert?

133
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: What is something from your search history that is revealing

134
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: about who you are. I've been looking up a lot

135
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: of Regnar Benson books lately, so I've been reading Man

Speaker 1: Trapping and Man Trapping two, and I've just been trying

137
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: to find out as much as i can about this guy.

138
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: He's this nut who writes books about how to trap people,

Speaker 1: He still writes stuff, but like he keeps. Yeah, he's

148
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,440

149
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: No one knows his real name. This is what I've

150
00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: been looking up online. It's trying to find out about this,

151
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: right because from what I can understand, like you'd expect,

152
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: maybe it's all lies. But like a lot of his

153
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: books wind up in like military libraries because he's like

154
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: he says, his book Man Trapping was based on interviews

155
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: he conducted in like Southeast Asia with like Vietnamese insurgents

156
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: and stuff. So it's not like non he's getting like

157
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: the holistic view of man trapping. You want to trap

158
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: a man? Man Trapping is a great book. Yeah. He

159
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: has two books on how to make homemade C four Jesus,

160
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: what do you do capture? In the first one, he

161
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: didn't capture Man Trapping in the first one, core poaching's

162
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: not not not the bullshit sissy poaching you'll get in

163
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 1: the other poaching books. Um Regunar Benchin is going to

164
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 1: teach you the serious ass poaching. Man trapping that sounds

165
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 1: like aggressive pickup artist book man trapping, and man trapping

166
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: to but I love the complete lack of metaphor here.

167
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: Man trapping is about how to physically trapped. Many you

168
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 1: see that on the bookshelves, You're like, huh, I wonder

169
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: that must be like a book about argument techniques. Nope, no, no,

170
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: this is about how to dig a hole and cover

171
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: it up with leaves style man trapping. M are these

172
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: books just available on the internet. You can down find

173
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 1: places to download them through torrent sites. Sometimes you can

174
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: also buy them all, like, it's not illegal to buy

175
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: these things, although I'm a hundred percent certain, Like if

176
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: I wasn't on a watch list before Anson has gotten

177
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: me on them, I'm sure just googling and it's like, yeah, yeah, no,

178
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: googling your name actually will get right here. Yeah. By

179
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 1: the way, we're talking about Ragnar Benson. How mysterious it

180
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: is that that's not his real name. Robert Evans, isn't

181
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: your real name, which I learned like five years after

182
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 1: hiring you at correct, that is accurate. Yeah, and we

183
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: just won't go into it anymore than that. Yeah, Robert,

184
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: my name is Miles Gray. Yeah, so I'm boring. No,

185
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: I know we had a lot of background checks, don't know,

186
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, well, thank you. I guess, Robert, what

187
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: is something that is over right? It? Oh? Yeah? I

188
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: think fucking bombing is overrated. Bombing Yeah, bombing no, no, no,

189
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 1: like like what the military does, Like we've done it

190
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: every time we've had a conflict. It's never won us

191
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: a war. Like we bombed Vietnam more than we bombed

192
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: all of Europe and World War Two didn't work. Like,

193
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: bombing didn't stop North Korea. Bombing didn't work in fucking Iraq,

194
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: it hasn't worked in Afghanic, Like it never works. But

195
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: we're always like, well we've got a problem, we better

196
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: drop bombs on people, Like yeah, but it's it's the

197
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,559
Speaker 1: humane way to fight a war, right, like to fight

198
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: a war. But I do feel like because of the

199
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,479
Speaker 1: outcry against chemical weapons that we've heard and completely justified,

200
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: there's been this complete skipping over of the fact that

201
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: you know, we bomb someone like people die horrible. Yeah,

202
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I've got friends who are in Mosle

203
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: right now who are going with volunteer teams just like

204
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: digging up the houses that we bombed, like over the

205
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: fighting with isis they're just all filled with dead people. Um,

206
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 1: because it's just it's just that's what bombs do. And

207
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: it's like if everybody's like chemical weapons are terrible, but

208
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 1: like if you look at how most people have died

209
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: in the Syrian conflict, it's perfectly conventional legal explosives like

210
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 1: and yet you know, and I also think movies have

211
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: misled us in terms of what explosions do, because in movies,

212
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: you can actually like surf on an explosion, Like an

213
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: explosion will like push you across the room like a

214
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,719
Speaker 1: wrong gust of wind. Like that shock wave doesn't just

215
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: like push you over like a gust of wind. It

216
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: actually will like it's called full body burst all your organs.

217
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: It just like will shred your skin. It doesn't just

218
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: make you. Like there's that Mission Impossible three trailer where

219
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: he like a shock wave from an explosion hits him

220
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: and he like surfs it over like a gap in

221
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: a bridge or something, and then like keeps running because

222
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 1: he's Tom Cruise, and like he just would have like

223
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: started eating from all his pores and turned into a

224
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: pile of human pudding. Yeah, yeah, it's not that. Yeah.

225
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: An explosion isn't to be used like an air ramp

226
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: in MTV Beach Blast exactly. It will destroy your Yeah.

227
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,839
Speaker 1: I think that that's there's part of us because we

228
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: almost never see somebody like die from an explosion, and movies,

229
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: explosions are just a way to like, uh, you know,

230
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,439
Speaker 1: make a wall come down for the most part, Uh

231
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: that we when we hear that, like we're dropping bombs

232
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: on places we don't we don't realize like yeah, no,

233
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: people's skin is turning black and you know they're blood

234
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: is boiling in their skull and just horrible ship is happening.

235
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,959
Speaker 1: I think the most accurate depiction of how most Americans

236
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 1: view like like bombing is the scene isn't bombings that

237
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: scene in Team America where one of the lady with

238
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 1: the chain gun walks into that bar filled with bad

239
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 1: guys and also women and children and just fires randomly

240
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: and only hits the bad guys right right right, Like yeah,

241
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: it's but you actually, like I've watched the US bomba

242
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 1: city and it's just like, oh, we're just dropping blosives

243
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: on the town. Like they're not just hitting bad guys.

244
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 1: It's just like, oh, you're just just dropping them. Every

245
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 1: you're in a town that that was happening on. Yeah,

246
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 1: I was watching. I was in Mosle. I was watching,

247
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: and I was watching US planes drop air strikes like

248
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: like quarter of a mile away, like standing on top

249
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 1: of a building, watching other parts of the town explode,

250
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: and then walking through them later that day, and it's

251
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: just like, yeah, it's just random almost like it's it's

252
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: I'm sure that they had a target they were going for,

253
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 1: but like it doesn't look targeted when you're actually there.

254
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 1: I think people still cling to that idea of the

255
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: smart bombs, including our president who was like, believe me,

256
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: these bombs are coming and they're they're so smart. Uh,

257
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,839
Speaker 1: they're so smart that they scored. Yeah, they're they're smart

258
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,839
Speaker 1: in the same way that my GPS is when it

259
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: like refuses to route me off the four oh five

260
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: even though it's a parking lot in the middle of

261
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: the day, California, Dude, four oh five. But we thought

262
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: back during the first swar in Iraq that you could

263
00:13:55,200 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: I think a you know, defense depart beneficial was like, oh,

264
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 1: we could deliver this missile through a window. Like that's

265
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: the really evocative thing he said, Like we can like

266
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: choose a window in a building to deliver this missile through.

267
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: And I think that just stuck with people. They were like, yeah,

268
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: we've got these smart weapons. Now nobody has to die

269
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: that doesn't have to And it's like, no, that's not

270
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: how it works actually anymore. No, and none of this

271
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 1: stuff works as well as the movie show, like night

272
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 1: vision goggles, Like everyone thinks that there are like heat

273
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: sensing everyone thinks that it's like this allows for super

274
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: precision work. I have a friend who got shot in

275
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: the leg by Americans, who's an American soldier who got

276
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: shot in the leg by his own guys because they

277
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: panicked and they were using a heat sensing scope and

278
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: they were like, there's guys in that building fire really yeah,

279
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: And they just didn't like there was a funk up

280
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: on the radio over like where people were supposed to

281
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 1: be when our body heat looks like their body heat, yeah, weird,

282
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 1: like different body heat. Star Blue, what's something you think

283
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: is underrated? So my underrated thing I think is and

284
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: this is this is exclusively for men um but it's

285
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 1: getting getting punched in in the face. I feel like

286
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: every time I watch someone like Ben Shapiro on TV,

287
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's a man who's never been punched in

288
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: the face, and yeah, you learned a lot about yourself. Yeah,

289
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: not permanent damage, just like someone else. And I feel

290
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: the same thing about the Trump boys. That's never happened

291
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: to them. Nobody's ever like even if they've been I'm

292
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: sure those guys have been m m a classes, but

293
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 1: nobody's like they're probably getting pay and that means like

294
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: assaulting a really drunk guy from behind a party. Yeah. No,

295
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: I feel like there's a lot of overconfident guys out

296
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: there who have really just one hit in the face,

297
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: it is it widened their world. And we'll also make

298
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: you very aware that you know, people can put their

299
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: hands on you, what that's like, and you might also

300
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: have a little more empathy to know what that is

301
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: like to be assaulted, to be manhandled, to be yeah,

302
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: it's uh face sudden pain and not really be able

303
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: to do anything about it, to be just a little

304
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: disoriented and helpless for then it. It's good God. I

305
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: love that video of Ben Shapiro sitting next to the

306
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: trans journalist who just like stop it, little boy, and

307
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 1: it makes him so scared. Yeah, and he has been

308
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: whining about it for years ever since. What videos is

309
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: he's like, you're not a woman, You're a man. Look

310
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: at you, like to a trans woman. And the trans

311
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: woman is a journalist who also has like a military

312
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 1: background and could like literally fuck Ben Shapiro him right up.

313
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: And Ben Shapiro's just like talks a big game, and

314
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, you're you're not shipped, like I

315
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 1: don't like physiologically, and then like the trans woman just

316
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 1: like leans into him and is like just stop it

317
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: right now. You don't want to go down this path. Essentially,

318
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: It's just it is something. Yeah. I read a column

319
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: of his and I think it the calm came from

320
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: like two that's an eight or nine where he's talking

321
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: about like, I don't see why we care so much

322
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: about civilian casualties in Afghanistan. I don't care how many

323
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: civilians die there. If it prevents one American from dying,

324
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 1: it's worth it. And I was like, yeah, Ben, your

325
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,439
Speaker 1: pars should be punched in the face. Yeah, like you should.

326
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 1: You don't have you don't understand the value of life.

327
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,120
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, so someone should hit you in the face

328
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 1: just a little bit. Yeah, underrated. Think the most pain

329
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,360
Speaker 1: he's been in is like biting into a hot pocket

330
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: too early after bringing it out of the microwave. And

331
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: that's the pain he suffers every morning. It burned the

332
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: tub of my mouth. I'm going to complain about. I'm

333
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: going to complain about the fucking s real law and ship.

334
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: What is something you think is a myth? What's something

335
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 1: people think is true that you know to be false.

336
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that raw meats dangerous? Oh ye, well just yeah,

337
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: eat raw meat, don't wash your hands after using it.

338
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: It will make you stronger. Yeah, yeah, is a lie.

339
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: Every night, this is my beauty secret, and I'm about

340
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 1: to unveil it. Every night I like to go to bed,

341
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,199
Speaker 1: I put a nice cold raw chicken cutlet over my

342
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: eyes and I go to sleep. And that's how I

343
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 1: say youthful and no bags. I'm seeing nos just a

344
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: lot of weird sort of pussy things. But I call

345
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 1: those beauty marks. Yeah, I feel like that's unrelated to

346
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 1: the ra but yeah, I mean like in Japan, like

347
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of raw meat being eaten,

348
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: but it's like then slice, it's like the kind of

349
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: beef that you like. That I'm not saying and be like, yeah,

350
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:20,360
Speaker 1: I want it medium rare medium. Uh yeah, I don't.

351
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can co sign this myth necessarily.

352
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: But okay, woll you've never you don't need a carpaccio.

353
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: You would not have carpaccio. And so I eat my

354
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 1: steak medium rare. I'm okay with that. But your select

355
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 1: circumstances I'm saying freaking out over raw meat is because

356
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: there are people who like, I know, people who know

357
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: you touched the chicken. You deal with it, yeah, or

358
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 1: people who like they say like, oh I love steak

359
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,719
Speaker 1: and they get it so well done, and what are

360
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 1: you doing? Or if they see any things they're like, oh,

361
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 1: there's blood in here. It's like that's not blood. Do

362
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,160
Speaker 1: you think you weren't eating an animal exactly? I wanted

363
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: to be gray and color right. All right, we're gonna

364
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 1: get into the stories of the day. We're trying to

365
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 1: take a sample of the global or national shared consciousness,

366
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: what people are thinking and talking about right now at

367
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 1: the moment we recorded. Uh. And in the past couple

368
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 1: of days, the Sacramento Police Department, I believe has captured

369
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: the Golden State Killer. Uh. Who is that? So this

370
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 1: was a cold case, uh, but it was one that

371
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 1: we had actually written about on Cracked a couple of

372
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 1: years many years back, because it was just like really

373
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: some of the creepiest crimes ever. First, the person started

374
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: out as known as like the East Area ransacker or

375
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: the something ransacker. He would go into people's homes and

376
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,479
Speaker 1: like steal photographs of them, and like just when he

377
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,399
Speaker 1: was caught, he like would start crying in this like

378
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 1: really high pitched voice and then and then run off. Yeah,

379
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: and then basically run off, but like just like really weird,

380
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 1: like almost like uh an alien behavior. But then he

381
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 1: would like hall people and be like I'm going to

382
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,479
Speaker 1: kill you whose houses he had like broken into, and

383
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: like this really creepy. Boys. Then somebody started like raping

384
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: all these people and they started like thinking it was

385
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 1: the same person because of like a couple piece of

386
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: evidence connecting them. And then the person started murdering people.

387
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: And the way he would do it is he would

388
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,360
Speaker 1: like watch them observe them for like weeks, get their

389
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 1: scheduled down, hide in their house until they were asleep,

390
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: and then come out with a flashlight and rape the

391
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 1: women and occasionally kill both the women and the men

392
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: and just really really creepy ship like would just gain

393
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: access to people's homes. And this is like in the

394
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: seventies and eighties. This was late seventies, early eighties. Yeah,

395
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: and then it just stopped and nobody really figured anything out.

396
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: And then, uh, Patton Oswalt's wife, the crime writer Michelle McNamara,

397
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 1: who passed away in I believe two thousand and sixteen,

398
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: you know, tragically and unexpectedly. She died in her sleep

399
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: of I think an undiagnosed heart thing, and you know,

400
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 1: she had a bunch of prescription medication in her blood

401
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: that might have contributed, but overall, you know, it was

402
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: just a weird freak thing. But she basically became obsessed

403
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 1: with this story and she was a really great writer

404
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: and started writing about it and got a book deal

405
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, started writing this book called I'll

406
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 1: Be Gone in the Darkness about this case. And prior

407
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:38,199
Speaker 1: to her writing about it, people hadn't really publicized it.

408
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: There was like a single Unsolved Mysteries episode about it,

409
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: but like they hadn't even like connected all the different

410
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 1: details of it. And she was the first person to

411
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: name him the Golden State Killer. Like prior to that,

412
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 1: they had like some weird acronym like ear or something

413
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 1: like the East Area ransack. Yeah. Yeah, it was like

414
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: nobody paid attention to it until she started getting people

415
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: interested in it, so her book. She died before finishing

416
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 1: the book. Patton Oswald got a couple of her best

417
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: friends who are also crime journalists, to finish the book

418
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: for her, and it went directly to number one on

419
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: the New York Times best seller lists, just like in

420
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: the past month, and like they were on a book

421
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: tour for it, and that's when Sacramento Police solved the case.

422
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,880
Speaker 1: So great marketing. Sacramento Police are saying she had nothing

423
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 1: to do with it, but they're saying this at a

424
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: press conference where they're calling him the Golden State Killer,

425
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: which was like her turn and like, wait, so is

426
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: it conceivable that her book actually did but no things

427
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: together or this was like an investigation that was really

428
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 1: happening for a while. I think it's conceivable and probably

429
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,880
Speaker 1: the actual truth that they were not pursuing the case

430
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: in a meaningful way. That's what she added, like, yeah,

431
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,239
Speaker 1: famous again, So I think that's exactly right. There are

432
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,439
Speaker 1: fifteen thousand murders in the United States every year, and

433
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 1: one third of them go solved. So that's just like

434
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 1: a huge number of unsolved murders that are piling up.

435
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: And you know, they just hadn't looked into this enough, basically,

436
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: and once somebody started looking into it and it became

437
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,120
Speaker 1: a New York Times bestseller or they knew a book

438
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 1: at least was coming out about it, that becomes a

439
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,400
Speaker 1: top priority because you don't want to get fucking embarrassed

440
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 1: the like, uh, I know who it is, and like, okay,

441
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 1: well I'm gonna get a little conspiracy theory ish here

442
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: we go, because this guy, the Gold State killer that

443
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: they've arrested, was a former cop, and so you have

444
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: to think if they didn't know exactly who it was,

445
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: they were probably some signs that this guy might have

446
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 1: been a cop, right, and so maybe they figured, well,

447
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: he's old, it'll be bad pr if we pursue this thread.

448
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 1: So maybe before the book came out, maybe they weren't

449
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: trying all that hard because they were just like, you know,

450
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: we always had a suspicion that this guy was weird.

451
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: And the reason he left the police force was because

452
00:23:55,119 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 1: he got caught shoplifting dog repellent and hammers, which one

453
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: of the key ways the guy killed people with hammers.

454
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: And the thing they could never figure out is how

455
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 1: he would get past dogs, and the way he would

456
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: actually do it is he would just like lay in

457
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: people's yards and like get friendly with the dogs and like,

458
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 1: but sometimes he would have to like spray the dog

459
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: repellent to like keep the dogs speaking out about him.

460
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,679
Speaker 1: So he got caught shoplifting and the police were like, Okay,

461
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,360
Speaker 1: well we'll just like do a trial, like a quick thing.

462
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,239
Speaker 1: This won't be like that big a deal for you.

463
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 1: And he was like, rather than that, I'm just gonna quit,

464
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 1: which was like really weird. They were like, wow, you

465
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:35,479
Speaker 1: just quit? If he right, just like super you know,

466
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 1: suspicious behavior that they just didn't look into. This also

467
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: happened with a crime podcast Up and Vanished, where they

468
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: started looking into this cold case. I listened to I

469
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 1: think the first like eight episodes of that and was

470
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: like certain I knew who had done it. And that

471
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: turned out to not be who had done it at all,

472
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: but they did solve it, like as this podcast was

473
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 1: becoming popular, and I think it's a exactly what Robert said.

474
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: It's that once this becomes a big story, it just

475
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 1: moves that to the top of your pile of ship

476
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 1: to worry about. Um. Yeah, it was funny because people

477
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: were like, how did you not know about this? Like,

478
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: you lived in California. I'm like the early eighties, I

479
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,439
Speaker 1: was in the process of being borned. Okay, so I

480
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 1: didn't know. And also like, I'm not like a huge

481
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 1: true crime person, but it seemed like it was really

482
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,199
Speaker 1: big recently with a lot of people who are my

483
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: favorite m c Yeah. Yeah, I went back to the

484
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 1: my favorite murder archives to like find the Golden State

485
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 1: Killer episode that like I knew they had done an

486
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: episode about it and assumed it was like a year ago.

487
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: It was like three weeks ago they had done it.

488
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 1: And then they caught the guy. But yeah, so the

489
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 1: way they caught him is actually really interesting. They caught

490
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: him because people in his family had sent away their

491
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: d n A to those like DNA database basically stuff. Yeah,

492
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: it wasn't twenty three and me it was a different

493
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: one and not not one of the well known ones.

494
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,880
Speaker 1: I've never plug them because they responsion anyway. Yeah they

495
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: but they could, but but it wasn't one of those

496
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 1: good ones. It was some bad one. But anyway, so

497
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: they were able to basically look at this cluster of

498
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 1: people and be like, okay, the because they had his

499
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 1: d n A from all the rapes he had committed,

500
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: they were like, okay, the Golden State killer is in

501
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: this family. And then just by a like process of elimination,

502
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: were able to be like, Okay, this dude didn't live

503
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 1: in Sacramento at that time. This person you know, students

504
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 1: do repelling. And then so after like doing all the

505
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: process of elimination, they thought it was this guy. They

506
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: went and like staked out his house, basically did what

507
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 1: he did to those families, uh, to his victims. They

508
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: like staked out his house and then like when he

509
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 1: put down a lollipop or like a cigarette or something

510
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: like snuck up got it and took his d n

511
00:26:53,760 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 1: A and it was match, yeah, exactly, take him away toys.

512
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 1: I would like to see them just be honest and

513
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:05,679
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, it made us want to solve the

514
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: case more her book, Like she definitely called out a

515
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 1: bunch of suspects that didn't end up being the people

516
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: who did it. But that's like a valuable part of

517
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 1: catching the guy, chasing leads that don't go anywhere like that,

518
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,959
Speaker 1: that that helps, And like I think Patton Oswald's right.

519
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: Cops are never gonna give a journalist credit for anything,

520
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 1: especially when they're trying to sort of distract from the

521
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 1: fact that, yeah, we caught this bad guy who was

522
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 1: also worked up. Yeah, exactly. I haven't read the book.

523
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: I've read passages of it, and she's a fucking great writer.

524
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 1: She wrote an article about it and I forget, but

525
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: it's it's beautifully rich. She is an amazing right, she's

526
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 1: very gifted, so worth checking out. All Right, we're gonna

527
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: take a quick break. We will be right back. And

528
00:27:55,119 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: we're back, and it is time to talk about Bill Cosby.

529
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 1: Love that guy. What's he been up to? So, yeah,

530
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 1: the Cosby verdict came in. He is guilty as guilty

531
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 1: as this has really hurt my pet theory that he

532
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: was the Golden State. Um he, I don't know that

533
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: this isn't surprising to I think anyone in this room

534
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 1: that he was guilty. We when thirty something people come

535
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 1: forward with basically the same allegation. But I do think

536
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 1: there's like a weird generational thing and sort of a

537
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: changing of the guard story here, um, because he got

538
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: away with doing this, and you know, with their being

539
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 1: accusations that he was doing this for years. Uh. I

540
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: think when in the nineties going into the early aughts,

541
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: when the world was still run by a generation of

542
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 1: people who knew him as America's dead and the Jello guy,

543
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 1: and maybe most importantly for white Americans during the eighties,

544
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: the successful black guy who proved that systemic racism isn't

545
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: a thing and that people just need to like pull

546
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: themselves up by their bootstraps. You shouldn't curse in your

547
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: stand up right. As long as you're just clean and nice,

548
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: everything's going to be all right, right, And you know

549
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 1: this was actually Hannibal Barris kind of brought these allegations

550
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 1: back to the mainstream mindset in a stand up act

551
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: where he was like talking about the hypocrisy of Bill Cosby,

552
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: you know, yelling at everybody to like pull up their

553
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: pants and be you know, respectable and not you swear words,

554
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 1: when like he's been accused of rape by thirty people. Uh,

555
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: and that started along with a Gawker article, started people

556
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: talking about this again. But yeah, I just feel like

557
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 1: there was this sort of myth that American culture really

558
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: wanted to believe in the eighties that like racism was over,

559
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 1: that the Cosby Show helped them believe in, and Bill

560
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 1: Cosby helped them believe in and so you know, they

561
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: just didn't wanna let go of that, and like, well

562
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 1: into the aughts, there were like these things called c

563
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: ratings where they showed you how the public felt about celebrities,

564
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 1: and I think like Jordan's was still like years after

565
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: he had retired, still rated in like the thirties. Cosby

566
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 1: was raided in the twenties, and like nobody else was

567
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: over fifteen in terms of like how trusted they were

568
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 1: as a public persona. So it's like they're the two

569
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: most trusted, most beloved figures, like still years after their

570
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: career had been like super relevant. But I feel like

571
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: we've moved on from that, both in a racial standpoint

572
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 1: and also from like a you know, I think the

573
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: me Too movement has actually made some progress. Yeah, well,

574
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: and clearly, like you say, generationally, like I think Hannibal

575
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: bursts like worth of that age too, that we can

576
00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: look at ship like without the like I guess the

577
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: most tinted lenses of nostalgia and kind of be like, yo,

578
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:05,720
Speaker 1: this is also some dark ship that happened. We don't

579
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 1: have to just dance around it or whatever. Yeah, it's weird,

580
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 1: how Like the generational divide before he got convicted was

581
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 1: between like whether or not people would believe the allegations,

582
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 1: because to me, Cosby was like I had vague memories

583
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 1: of him selling pudding pops and wearing a sweater and

584
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: like Christmas commercials, So I was not like when I

585
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: first heard that, like, oh, people have accused him of rape,

586
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: Like I didn't have any reason not to believe it.

587
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 1: But my parents like love to show when it was

588
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 1: on and my I got had had this big argument

589
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 1: with my mom over like like they were just trying

590
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: to get something out of him. I'm like, there's like

591
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 1: sixty of them. What are they trying to do? Get

592
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: all the wealth and riches that America? Like? Right? And

593
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: that shows you the the sort of perception of him

594
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 1: for people was like, Oh, this man could not do wrong.

595
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: He's the doctor Huxtable, Doctor Huxtable. Yeah, I think there's

596
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: a similar generational thing with how seriously we take sexual

597
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 1: assault allegations. Yea, And I think the Me Too movement

598
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 1: changed a lot of the way that you know, we

599
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: talked talk about these things in public and the ways

600
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 1: we talk about sexual assault and other sort of sexual

601
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: misconduct in public. But the fact that you know, we're

602
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: finally bringing this guy to justice is I think a

603
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 1: good sign at least a good first And I guess

604
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: at least that defense of like they're just trying to

605
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 1: get something out of them is no longer that's seen

606
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: as like a really improper thing to say when someone

607
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: is accusing somebody of this kind of thing. Yeah. I

608
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 1: think one of the most helpful narratives is just that

609
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: we started hearing from victims who are like, look, this

610
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: is the most painful thing for me to talk about,

611
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about this, and just doing

612
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 1: it to help protect other people basically, um so, yeah,

613
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 1: I think what he's good looking at up to thirty

614
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 1: years years, I mean, this has there been a sentencing

615
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 1: day yet or that's hasn't been set yet. I think

616
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: I don't think they have said it yet Uh, he's

617
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 1: looking at six thirty years up to thirty years. The judge,

618
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 1: hope Lee is not to permiss it, like he let

619
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: Cosby call the district attorney and asshole in yesterday. So hopefully, uh,

620
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: he gets a little stricter and I could show you

621
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 1: some softness on the judges part of that generation, things

622
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 1: like but that's old Bill, you know, like, yo, this dude,

623
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:19,239
Speaker 1: he's a fucking criminal. Justice has to be served. Yeah, uh,

624
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 1: all right, And we also wanted to talk about the

625
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 1: uh some changes, some big changes happening on the Korean peninsula. Yeah,

626
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 1: well there are for the first time very long time,

627
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 1: Kim Johnson crossed into South Korean territory for a peace

628
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 1: summit and they were announcing holding hands, like hey, we're

629
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: gonna work together to quote achieve complete de nuclearization of

630
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: the Korean peninsula. And Robbert, you're pointing out that there

631
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 1: have been peace talks before, but this is kind of

632
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 1: significant because for the first time that he's crossing over

633
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 1: to the South because for the longest time, as people know,

634
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 1: the Korean peniszula has been divided along thirty eight parallel.

635
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 1: So that is a big move. It's like peace propaganda

636
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 1: because like everything was so thought out and everything is

637
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 1: so symbolic, and it's very interesting to like sort of

638
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: read about the details or just sort of how meticulously

639
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 1: planned this is. It was like this is the most

640
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 1: Korean thing in the world, like they are these descriptions

641
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: of because of the important of the talks, everything at

642
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: the summit was like loaded with all this minute symbolism. Uh.

643
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 1: The negotiation table is two thousand uh and eighteen millimeters,

644
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 1: commemorating the year of the meeting. The legs of the

645
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 1: table resembled two bridges merging, with the South Korean government

646
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: said was to help bridge the psychological distance. The chairs

647
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,320
Speaker 1: were made of walnut because it isn't prone to bending

648
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: or warping over time, which that one just sounds like

649
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 1: maybe they got a good deal on some walnut chairs

650
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: and tried to propaganda. Yeah, but yeah. And the meal,

651
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 1: like South Korean President Moon Jan is uh, he got

652
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: a John Dory fish to eat, which is a Southeast

653
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,800
Speaker 1: and fish, presumably voiced by Ellen DeGeneres, but it was

654
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 1: one of his childhood favorites. And Kim Jong un had

655
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,800
Speaker 1: a Swiss meal because he spent part of his childhood

656
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: in Switzerland. Uh, and there was this dessert that had

657
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,320
Speaker 1: the Korean peninsula painted on it and it got Japan

658
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 1: hot though. Yeah, it had some islands that Japan had

659
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 1: been like ours on and uh, that they weren't okay with.

660
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:29,760
Speaker 1: It's a point of contention who's claiming these islands or whatever.

661
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, obviously, you know, symbolism is like

662
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 1: a big important thing of how they communicate. So I

663
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 1: guess it culturally makes sense because in America, clearly we

664
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: know what Donald Trump's plan is literally just be like, hey,

665
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: you're comfortable, fuck you and walk out right. So I

666
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 1: guess it's interesting to show that the North and South

667
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,959
Speaker 1: Korean leaders are trying to maybe show that they also

668
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: want to take these kinds of pea stocks into their

669
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,320
Speaker 1: own hands exclusive of the United States and other outside

670
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 1: countries and being like, yo, this is our like we're

671
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: going to figure this out too. That they're on a

672
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: hop in the driver's seat, which could be interesting, but yeah, again,

673
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 1: this isn't the first time this thing has happened, so

674
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 1: we can necessarily just throw up the balloons and say like, oh,

675
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 1: here we go completely denuclearized. But you know, at least

676
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 1: we're seeing something. So North Korea first promised to denuclearize

677
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:19,399
Speaker 1: in they promised again in two thousand five to give

678
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 1: up their entire nuclear weapons program. Two six is when

679
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: they tested their first nuclear weapons successfully. So this is

680
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 1: like they've got a long history of saying like, yeah,

681
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: we're totally down to denuclearization, and then look look at

682
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 1: our nuke. Something seems a little bit different now, yeah,

683
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 1: but we'll see again, because yeah, there is a pattern

684
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,759
Speaker 1: of saying yes, people do nuclearized, and then it's not.

685
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: There's not exactly the most tremendous follow through. Yeah, I mean,

686
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 1: it's tough to say whether the thing that seems different

687
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,919
Speaker 1: is actually a substantive difference or if it's just we're

688
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 1: coming off of our president taunting their president and their

689
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: president then taunting us back and being like your rocket man,

690
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna bomb you. He's like they're gonna die in

691
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 1: the flames of our nuclear weapons and ship like if

692
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 1: it's just like such a contrast that it seems different.

693
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean this is definitely something where Trump

694
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: was out front being like, yeah, because we've had past

695
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,359
Speaker 1: administrations have been played like a fiddle, and but they

696
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: can't funk with us. Anymore. They know that, and so

697
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: they're kind of coming to the table, which doesn't seem

698
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,439
Speaker 1: like that's possibly what's going on, but it does seem

699
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 1: like something has changed, possibly that it's just like, well,

700
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: now both sides know that America is not a leader

701
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: in the region or it's not like they don't have

702
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: America like as strong as a force in the region,

703
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 1: and so they have to like solve shipped themselves, which

704
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 1: might not be great for American in the long run,

705
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 1: but it would be better than having a North Korea

706
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 1: with nuclear weapons for sure, if in fact they are

707
00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:00,160
Speaker 1: willing to, you know, disarm. Yeah, I think, and we

708
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,840
Speaker 1: even talked about last week about and it's even possible

709
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 1: that the new thing is that we've introduced a leader

710
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 1: who we do not know really what they think or

711
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: are not consistent, So that's kind of shaking things up

712
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 1: to that Trump made it be a wild card too.

713
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,359
Speaker 1: I don't know though, but at the very least, I'd

714
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: rather be hearing about them holding hands walking around the

715
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: demarcation line than you know, aiming artillery at each other.

716
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 1: So yeah. Super producer Nick Stump was pointing out that

717
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 1: on NPR John Brennan, who's the x CIA director who

718
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 1: fucking hates Donald Trump and uses some of the most

719
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 1: colorful language to describe how shitty of a leader he is.

720
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 1: He even pointed out that, hey, you know, it is

721
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 1: true to a certain extent that sort of this appeasement

722
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: policy that the US or the West has been using

723
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 1: with North Korea hasn't really been effective. So perhaps you

724
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 1: could point to the fact that Donald Trump's just insane,

725
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: fiery rhetoric is like at least a shift in discourse

726
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 1: that you may be able to say, Okay, maybe this

727
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 1: did change how North Korean's we're looking at things. Yeah,

728
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 1: I do think that there's a risk. And this is

729
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 1: something like that happens in every corner of politics where

730
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: they intersect the US of like focusing on like what

731
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: we did and being like, okay, well, Trump obviously gets

732
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 1: credit for this because it happened when the presidents like, well, no,

733
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: the Koreans have been negotiating the entirety of the time

734
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,839
Speaker 1: since the war ended. This is like a very long

735
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: stand Like it's kind of like us being like, look

736
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: at how important America is. Even when a ship heads

737
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 1: in charge, like we cause this thing to happen. It's

738
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 1: like well, no, maybe this would have happened no matter

739
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: who was president, because they've been negotiating this for decades, right, right, right, Yeah,

740
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 1: it's a similar to like when I think Kim Jong

741
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: un met with like g and China, I think he

742
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 1: was even like, yeah, I see what I did. So

743
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, there's definitely this tendency to want to

744
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: be able to be like he regardless. Yeah, and that's true.

745
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 1: Like even how you say, Robert that we even as

746
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: like Americans from a foreign policy standpoint, tend to think

747
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,399
Speaker 1: that everything is being completely run at every single moment

748
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 1: by the United States when other people do exist in

749
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 1: the world. It's a big world. At the same time,

750
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 1: America is a big and important power in the world,

751
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 1: and especially when it comes to, you know, relationship with

752
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: Korea and North Korea. Yeah, but we can't discredit that

753
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,800
Speaker 1: other people are also putting in work. Yeah, And I

754
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 1: think it's a very specific way of looking at things

755
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 1: to be like, well, they're scared of America, and therefore

756
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 1: it could just be like they're like, well, America doesn't

757
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: really have the same cache that it had before, so

758
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 1: now we can negotiate a little bit more freely. And

759
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 1: also like, why would they be more scared of Trump

760
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: than they were of Bush when their nuclear program was

761
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 1: still getting off the ground and Bush was invading countries

762
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 1: left and right, right, Like, Yeah, no, I don't totally

763
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 1: buy that either, But I just don't know necessarily what

764
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 1: is going on in the Korean peninsula yet, So I

765
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 1: don't have an alternative explanation other than they probably read

766
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 1: the art of the deal and they were like, this

767
00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 1: guy's a genius. We need to say down with him,

768
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 1: and just we saw him in home alone too, and

769
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: we realized we got a star on our hands. I mean,

770
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,919
Speaker 1: there are sanctions obviously that North Korea has been being

771
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 1: starved to death for years and years and years, so

772
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: there's always the possibility that they were just tired of starving,

773
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 1: which I would be, you know, with there are all

774
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:24,359
Speaker 1: sorts of different explanations for it. But you know, if

775
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 1: things are getting better for the world at large than

776
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: more power, we'll take it. We will take it, uh

777
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:33,919
Speaker 1: as we do not need that section of the world

778
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,359
Speaker 1: turning into a war zone. All right, We'll be right back,

779
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: And we're back, and it is Friday, which means that

780
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:55,880
Speaker 1: it's time for Bloyd Um. So the covers of the

781
00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 1: tabloids are overrun with stories about the royal baby. Yeah cool,

782
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 1: another baby. Uh. This one is like what fifth six

783
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 1: then line something like that. Uh, and its name is Louis. Okay,

784
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:16,880
Speaker 1: good for you for they said named after Louis c K.

785
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 1: So timely, well done, guys. It's a weird line royals

786
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 1: to take. I know. I kind of like it though,

787
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,760
Speaker 1: because like when I think royal and I think Louis,

788
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 1: I'm thinking of like the son king, like the most

789
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 1: diva ish male monarch in history's cardinal, wearing some fucking

790
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 1: high heels around the palace and just like, bitch, yeah,

791
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 1: look at what those little calf socks and stuff. I

792
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: would support the existence of monarchies if they still dressed

793
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:49,239
Speaker 1: that way, just to be like, look, but don't wear

794
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 1: regular people. When that one prince is like flying helicopters

795
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 1: in the British Army, he still has to dress like

796
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 1: like scampering over to his helicopter and the little booty shorts.

797
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: Oh man, yeah, new rule. Yeah this is Bill Mark. Yeah,

798
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 1: everything really is. Actually, they're on every cover, almost not

799
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 1: on my cover. Over here at the National End, quiet talking,

800
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:17,839
Speaker 1: we're throwing Michael Cohen under the motherfucking bus. So it's

801
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 1: Trump's fixers, secrets and lies. So this is kind of

802
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 1: an amazing thing that I saw multiple places on the

803
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: National Enquirer is that they're so confident that their readership

804
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,840
Speaker 1: only watches Fox News that they can break news that

805
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 1: is just like the very basic stories that we've all

806
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 1: been paying attention to for like the past six months.

807
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 1: Like they're like, so, Stormy Daniels is a porn star

808
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 1: who Cohen paid a hundred Like, they're just telling the

809
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 1: story of Cohen's role in this wacky Stormy Daniels. Yeah,

810
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: and they also talk about his role in the dossier,

811
00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:00,960
Speaker 1: like and the meeting that Cohen allegedly had with Russian

812
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 1: officials and Prague. So they're just basically throwing him under

813
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: the bus. So I we we always should start this

814
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 1: section out acknowledging that most of these are published, including

815
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 1: The National Enquired by American Media, Inc. Which is run

816
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 1: by Trump's best friend guy named David Pekar and exactly,

817
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,360
Speaker 1: so basically he can use all these tabloids to just

818
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 1: help Trump's like media narratives. So in this case, it's like, oh, yeah,

819
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 1: Cohen's a funk up and Trump really never sucked them anyway,

820
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:37,880
Speaker 1: so yeah, whatever he did is a lie. Uh. They

821
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,040
Speaker 1: also are breaking the news that Facebook and Google know

822
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: a lot about you and you should be concerned for

823
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 1: your privacy. So yeah, it's just what Google, Google clusters

824
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: your favorite treat. It's just basically breaking the news that

825
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:57,400
Speaker 1: we've all known four years. Yeah, on the National Examiner,

826
00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 1: which again I feel like we just stopped buying because

827
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 1: it's only news for people over seventy. It's just like

828
00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:06,399
Speaker 1: the final brave days of Lauretta Lynn or like Queen

829
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:10,239
Speaker 1: Demand Charles divorced Camilla or you know, daughter tells all

830
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 1: the Larry Hagman only I knew who's Larry Hagman, I

831
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 1: do not, I mean, only only that person, Larry Hagman.

832
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 1: Oh he was Jr. Okay, I thought, so, okay, that

833
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:25,640
Speaker 1: makes sense because that's the only reason why my first

834
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 1: thing was like, was he in Dallas? Because he has

835
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:29,360
Speaker 1: a cowboy had in the image Anyway, I don't know,

836
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:32,240
Speaker 1: don't care. Moving on, title should have been the jr?

837
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 1: From Dallas? Then yeah, exactly, But I think if you're old,

838
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,399
Speaker 1: you know Larry, I mean Larry Hagman. So this next

839
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 1: one in touch. Obviously they're doing their coverage of the

840
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 1: little Prince. But on the side they say, Jimmy Fallon

841
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:47,480
Speaker 1: is just drinking out of control. I hope almost definitely.

842
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:49,320
Speaker 1: If they're asking that question, I think we can just

843
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 1: assume yeah. And of course they put a picture of

844
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 1: him mid blink, so it looks like he's all like bleriot. Uh.

845
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 1: And then when they look in there, basically all they're

846
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,759
Speaker 1: saying is someone saw him at a Yankee game. Drink

847
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,759
Speaker 1: to beer is real quick, and that's what they're basing

848
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,720
Speaker 1: it off of. So I mean, they don't quite describe

849
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 1: the pace at which you drink them, like I get.

850
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:10,400
Speaker 1: If you drink two big gas baseball beers back to

851
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,839
Speaker 1: back real quick, then I may be like, oh, you're

852
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 1: trying to get a buzz off those beers. But if

853
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 1: he's just having two beers at the game, maybe sort

854
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 1: of in a spirited way. I don't know if you

855
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,359
Speaker 1: can just say, oh, man, his drinking is oh but man,

856
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 1: they got a great picture for it, right, yeah, exactly,

857
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,880
Speaker 1: which is him sipping a beer. So again, yeah, his

858
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 1: his license shambles. Uh. And I think they point to

859
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 1: the loss of his mother as a possible factor in that. Uh.

860
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 1: And then what else they got on Us Weekly just

861
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: more fucking weird ship to draw you in. Like first,

862
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: Lady Milan, you're doing it her way, so you're like, okay,

863
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:48,719
Speaker 1: so maybe during all the cheating and all these other

864
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,160
Speaker 1: weird things, maybe she's doing something right. It's just about

865
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 1: her life. There's nothing about doing it her way in

866
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: any way. Uh, let's see the other tabloids not very interesting,

867
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,800
Speaker 1: a royal baby. And then really what I like to

868
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,240
Speaker 1: point to as the globe, right, so you can always

869
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,600
Speaker 1: tell because David Pecker is Donald Trump's best friend. That

870
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:11,240
Speaker 1: like how crazy the cover stories are about the Clintons

871
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,560
Speaker 1: typically shows you how bad a shape Trump is in

872
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 1: the news. So a few weeks ago they were like, oh,

873
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:19,359
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton has a brain tumor and she's dying. Uh,

874
00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 1: this week they got it Clinton's cought in double murder investigation.

875
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: Wholely shit. Now when you open this story, it is

876
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 1: insane because what they are trying to say is that

877
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,680
Speaker 1: apparently this guy who has a little rock radio show,

878
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 1: this guy named Doc Washburn, had a former professional wrestler

879
00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,479
Speaker 1: by the name of Billy Jack Haynes on his show,

880
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,719
Speaker 1: and he said that then governor of Arkansas, Bill Clinton

881
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 1: recruited him quote as a muscle for a rogue Cia

882
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,760
Speaker 1: drug running operation and ordered the deaths of Kevin Ives

883
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:54,719
Speaker 1: seventeen and Don Henry sixteen after they accidentally stumbled upon it.

884
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:58,800
Speaker 1: So I guess Bill Clinton was moving crazy weight a

885
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of yo from Colombia in Arkansas

886
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:04,239
Speaker 1: in the eighties. Clearly it's about the Clinton's, right, but

887
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,960
Speaker 1: the way they talk about it is always framed as

888
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 1: about Hillary. So even this thing is about Bill Clinton

889
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: ordering these sort of murders, they say. Last December, thirty

890
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 1: years after the Innocent Kids death, Haynes revealed he was

891
00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:19,360
Speaker 1: hired by a quote criminal politician ensure nothing was stolen

892
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,840
Speaker 1: from an August cocaine shipment uh that he was importing

893
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 1: from Colombian drug king Pablo Escobar. So now you got

894
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 1: Escobar in the many in cartel. And then it follows

895
00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 1: the quote criminal politician Handes swore to Washburn was Hillary

896
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:38,359
Speaker 1: Clinton's husband was also known as Bill Clinton. That's surprisingly

897
00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:41,440
Speaker 1: woke though, because it's always like whenever you've got like

898
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:46,439
Speaker 1: a notable man and woman who are married, woman's his husband. Yeah.

899
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 1: A crime novel written by Patton Oswaltz was actually I

900
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: support their wokeness and that yeah, and then so what

901
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 1: they do is even more shocking. Haynes claimed Clinton gave

902
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,760
Speaker 1: the order to finish off the boys in a chilling

903
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:02,359
Speaker 1: cell phone call. He goes, we can't leave no witnesses, Billy,

904
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 1: you know I gotta get rid of I can't leave

905
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:07,200
Speaker 1: no witnesses, Hayes says, And I heard Hillary in the

906
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:11,000
Speaker 1: background saying the same thing, you cannot leave any witnesses. So,

907
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:15,800
Speaker 1: first of all, how many motherfucker's has cell phones like that?

908
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:17,839
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? That's already like a weird

909
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 1: technological thing. And also the fact that he has to

910
00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:24,839
Speaker 1: add the added incriminating quote from Hillary off the phone

911
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:29,800
Speaker 1: being like witnesses. Make sure he hears me say it too. Yeah, okay,

912
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do. If Hillary Clinton were not the most

913
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:35,719
Speaker 1: boring woman in the world and had been like moving cocaine,

914
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 1: she would have won the election. When Donald Trump was

915
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 1: stocking her ass around that stage, wouldn't like, you go

916
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:43,640
Speaker 1: back the fuck off. She would have pulled out a

917
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,920
Speaker 1: switch play. She's like, I used to move wild White across.

918
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:51,879
Speaker 1: Then you do not want this ship, hablo Escobar's dead.

919
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,359
Speaker 1: Motherfucking me. You know why Bill's hair is white from

920
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 1: what I fucking blow he was doing in the eighties.

921
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,600
Speaker 1: Bro back up. So yeah, that's clearly not going on.

922
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,479
Speaker 1: So again shout out to the Globe for really trying

923
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,239
Speaker 1: to distract people again to point the finger note, it's

924
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,840
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton's husband who is the murderer. Yeah, very clearly,

925
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 1: so cool Bloyd watch this week. Uh, alright, a couple

926
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 1: of the stories we wanted to hit. Yeah, Alexa raise

927
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:21,000
Speaker 1: my kids. The new feature is coming out I guess

928
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:25,359
Speaker 1: called free Time on the Echo, and it's basically optimized

929
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:27,720
Speaker 1: for kids, so you can just leave your children alone

930
00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:30,120
Speaker 1: with a Echo and they can ask it all the

931
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,160
Speaker 1: annoying ship like why is the sky blue? And stuff

932
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 1: like that. So in this new feature, they will basically

933
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,879
Speaker 1: turn your c I a surveillance tube into a child

934
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 1: caretaker now, uh, and like it will you know, it

935
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,719
Speaker 1: can limit access to shopping features or news or other

936
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 1: explicit content. And it also like optimizes the voice detection

937
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:49,719
Speaker 1: for kids voices because they're like higher pitch or like,

938
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,239
Speaker 1: you know, kids they should like Alexa or whatever, so

939
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:55,040
Speaker 1: it'll it'll know how to listen to children and now

940
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,440
Speaker 1: instead of just giving direct answers when you're like, yo, uh,

941
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 1: you know how many grahams in an ounce, it's not

942
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 1: just gonna say eight grahams. It'll give the kids more context,

943
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:07,600
Speaker 1: so it'll you know, it'll give you more details. So

944
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:10,520
Speaker 1: it's like really explaining to a kid answers that they

945
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 1: want to know. So you can just be in the

946
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:14,360
Speaker 1: other room, smacked out of your mind and let the

947
00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:17,840
Speaker 1: machine raise your children. And it also has a like

948
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,920
Speaker 1: magic word feature that will reinforce sort of like manners

949
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 1: because there's been a lot of like think pieces I've

950
00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:26,080
Speaker 1: seen from parents being like, my kids talk so rude

951
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 1: to these AI assistants or whatever. So now it'll make

952
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 1: you say like please and thank you. So hey, parents,

953
00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:34,279
Speaker 1: throw your hands up in the air, waver around like

954
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:39,680
Speaker 1: you just don't care because Amazon has answered your prayers. Yep, yeah,

955
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 1: that can't possibly be a problem. Not letting a little

956
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 1: machine tube It seems like one of those things like

957
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 1: where you know, it seems funny now, but like really

958
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:52,160
Speaker 1: we will see these kids who were raised by, like

959
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:55,560
Speaker 1: not raised by, but got a lot of information out

960
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 1: of an echo from growing up. I feel like the

961
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,320
Speaker 1: more power we give Amazon over the developing minds of children,

962
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,960
Speaker 1: like the better off will all be yes. Yeah, high

963
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:09,360
Speaker 1: school graduation, Ramsey, I'm not gonna fucking deal with this

964
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:14,319
Speaker 1: kid is going to show up at his graduation. Yeah,

965
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,840
Speaker 1: your house is just littered with these new echoes. What

966
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:18,920
Speaker 1: the is this? Jack? Yeah? These are these are my

967
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:22,800
Speaker 1: kids new parents. Talk to me. Uh oh. And finally,

968
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 1: I just want to bring up that Paul Ryan forced

969
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,839
Speaker 1: out the House chaplain out of his job, forced him

970
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 1: to resign. The Jesuit priests who like does prayers and

971
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 1: stuff for Congress, the original s JW Man dude got

972
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,799
Speaker 1: kicked his ass out and people are very confused why

973
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 1: he like suddenly resigned, And it's because other House Republicans

974
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 1: started complaining about him, Like when they were voting on

975
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,279
Speaker 1: like the tax scam, he liked led a prayer that

976
00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:50,960
Speaker 1: basically asked people to get back in touch with their

977
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,520
Speaker 1: humanity and consider what the effects were of this bill,

978
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 1: and they did not fucking like that, so they that

979
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:59,200
Speaker 1: was like one of the first complaints. Then this Jesuit

980
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 1: priest had the nerve to have an e mom come

981
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,279
Speaker 1: in and speak to the House and they were like no, no, no,

982
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,360
Speaker 1: this is bullshit. So all these complaints really had to

983
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,160
Speaker 1: do with the fact that he was a person of

984
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:15,320
Speaker 1: God who was really trying to inspire the teachings of

985
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 1: the Bible and the most basic sense of like being

986
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:21,320
Speaker 1: compassionate and caring about people and not like running immigrants

987
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:24,320
Speaker 1: out on a rail or being you know, homophobic and

988
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 1: other ship like that. And like another thing, apparently he

989
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:29,080
Speaker 1: had an interview in the National Journal where he was

990
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:31,239
Speaker 1: like saying like, yeah, like there needs to be more

991
00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:34,359
Speaker 1: accountability in like Congress for like sexual assaults and things

992
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 1: like that. So these are the kinds of complaints they had,

993
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,799
Speaker 1: and Paul Ryan cave and now this Jesuit priest has

994
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:42,879
Speaker 1: to resign. Well, if I know my Jesus, there's two

995
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:45,960
Speaker 1: things that he was all about. And thing number one

996
00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:49,880
Speaker 1: was taxing the poor, and thing number two was he

997
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:55,399
Speaker 1: loved money changers. That's true. That's watch the tax collector's feet, right, Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah,

998
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:57,600
Speaker 1: he's a big fan of that. Yeah, I guess, so,

999
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 1: you know people he loved loved why people love white Jesus,

1000
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,000
Speaker 1: that's it. And then also they even warned him like

1001
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:06,279
Speaker 1: a few months ago where someone like literally said to

1002
00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,320
Speaker 1: him stay out of politics, pod Ray, stick to the

1003
00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:13,080
Speaker 1: stick to the ghost stories about Jesus bro Goddamn, let

1004
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 1: me fucking steal from the an entire generation of people. Boom, alright,

Speaker 1: you like history and you want to know weird stuff,

1017
00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:00,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I consider myself like someone who likes his street,

1018
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,760
Speaker 1: but Roberts your your ability to dig up this stuff

1019
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,680
Speaker 1: is second to none. So yeah, it's definitely worth those. Yeah.

1020
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:09,640
Speaker 1: And there's something about like bad people, like the bad

1021
00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 1: guys of history. They're just like way more interesting. I think,

1022
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 1: it's maybe because well, first of all, they're crazy, but

1023
00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:17,640
Speaker 1: second of all, we just like have to turn them

1024
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:21,040
Speaker 1: into just complete villains, so we cut all the interesting

1025
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:23,799
Speaker 1: ship out of their lives, and yeah, we dehumanize them.

1026
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 1: Like I've spent most of the last two weeks for

1027
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 1: the episode we're about to record, looking through everything with

1028
00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:30,520
Speaker 1: some of bin Laden had on his hard drives, just

1029
00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:33,360
Speaker 1: hours and hours of watching it, and it's nuts. But

1030
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,759
Speaker 1: it's not like Bond villain nuts. It's like the motherfucker

1031
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:39,239
Speaker 1: had like forty hours of Tom and Jerry videos, right,

1032
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:43,239
Speaker 1: Hey man, I'm sure like because they didn't have like

1033
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:45,920
Speaker 1: access to other like entertainment, so you got to load

1034
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 1: up them hard drives when you hide out. Yeah. Yeah, No,

1035
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,360
Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry very violent. Uh. And I think we

1036
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,000
Speaker 1: can all now say that Tom and Jerry caused not

1037
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 1: eleven for sure. I've been saying that for years. You

1038
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 1: have been saying that to a weird degree, like almost

1039
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 1: every time give us Twitter follow uh hashtag Tom and

1040
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,879
Speaker 1: Jerry trio, hashtag false Flag, hashtag comm and Jerry. Yeah yeah,

1041
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:10,800
Speaker 1: but yeah, it turns out reality is like Batman movies.

1042
00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:15,439
