I'm just very disappointed. I 96 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: did not see my namesake, Miles Tales in it, so 97 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: it is a hard pass for me at right now. Wait, 98 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: I thought you were named after Miles Davis. You were 99 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: named after Tales. I was retroactively named after Miles Tales 100 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: because by that point I think I was already ten 101 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 1: years old when Sonic two came out. But anyway, like 102 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: that's for another show called Why I Changed My Name? Uh? 103 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: All right, but first Ben, we like to ask our guess, 104 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: what's something from your search history that's revealing about who 105 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: you are? Uh? Something from my search history? Alright? So 106 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: I got really involved of last week with looking up 107 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: snacks that have come and gone. And it was one 108 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 1: of those things where I looked up and it was, 109 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: you know, like three thirty in the morning on a 110 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: day of the week I didn't recognize and I was, 111 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: I was. I had been caught in this hole where 112 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: I was trying to figure out what happened to the 113 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: following brands of chips. Keebler had these chips called Pizzeria's 114 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: and Pizzeria's ostensibly where pizza flavored chip. I don't know 115 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: if they actually nailed the flavor, but young Ben Bolin 116 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: thought they were like the Holy Grail in a bag 117 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: and uh and they were. They were amazing. I couldn't 118 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: find them anywhere. I was like, why did they discontinue these? 119 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: Why did Keebler, like some snack spewing icarus fly too 120 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: close to the flavor sun and and uh and so 121 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: anybody who looks at my search history for the past 122 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: week is gonna be it's gonna be like, Wow, this 123 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: guy needs to this guy needs to let the potato 124 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: chip thing go.

The 127 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: anything is possible bring back Pizzerias. That's why I remember 128 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: buying Pizzeria's when I first saw him, because I was like, 129 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: you know what this this looks okay? And it was 130 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: like just a very generic, like more marianera flavored chip. 131 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: It's hard to exactly got it. Um, you know, everything's 132 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: corn out here and jack and what I do. Yeah, 133 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: they look like my favorite type of dorito that was discontinued, 134 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: the vegetable and herbs dorito. Do you remember that one? 135 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: It was like that it was back back. I think 136 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: it was only in the eighties, but there was like 137 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 1: a vegetable Yeah, it was like it was I think 138 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: it was like salsa doritos or something salsa, oh right, right, 139 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: what the funk was that? I think they were the 140 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: first flavored derritos, Like there were doritos that were just corns, 141 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 1: just corn, and then her corns flavored. After I think 142 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: the Salsa verida is still around maybe, yeah, but do 143 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: you do you know the ones I'm talking about?

We can't do a photograph because 150 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: that would lead you to believe that there's actual vegetables 151 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: in here and not just chemically you know, chemical miracles. 152 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: That's why I'm so healthy today.

And 294 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,959 Speaker 1: I just get suckered into reading a three book series 295 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: and then they turns out they don't sew it up. 296 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: Books are overrated books? All right? And everybody can I'm 297 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: glad everybody can co sign that? Uh? And Ben, finally, 298 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: what is a myth? What's something people think it's true 299 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: you know to be false? Uh? Some people think is 300 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 1: true that we know to be false. Well, it's funny 301 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: you ask me, guys, because as you know I one 302 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,880 Speaker 1: of the shows that I create is about critical thinking 303 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: applied to conspiracy theories. So where do you want to start? 304 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: I would say one that one thing that people uh 305 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: think is true that is overrated is the idea of 306 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: a population explosion, you know, the the idea that one 307 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: day they would just be so many many people, uh, 308 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: that the world would break under the resource weight just 309 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: the demand of all the people. It looks like the 310 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,919 Speaker 1: population in a lot of areas is increasing but decreasing 311 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: in in places. So whenever you see someone, you run 312 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: into someone who's like holier than thou and they say, well, 313 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: there are this many billion people on earth, and you 314 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: know next year there's gonna be twenty five billion. Just 315 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: check them. You know, I'm not saying they have to 316 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: read a book, since those are woefully overrated, right exactly. 317 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: And also there's plenty of books that say that, like 318 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: the ma Susian theory of population, like overpopulation. Robert Malthus 319 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: was like, I mean obviously a long time ago, but 320 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: like that that was huge in the seventies. Even like 321 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: very recently people were like, yeah, well like instead of 322 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: climate change, just insert well, the global population is gonna 323 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: overwhelm us and there won't be enough food anyways, so 324 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 1: we're all screwed. Like that's how people talk to out 325 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 1: over population. And then look at us. We've doubled the 326 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: plat since then, still living high off the hog, right, right, 327 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: well so far, I mean, the climate is going to 328 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 1: get us first, but it's but you know there's that 329 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 1: it's a it's a cold comfort. I guess, yes, we're 330 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 1: a warming one. Let's talk about John Singleton, who passed 331 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: a couple of days ago. I had a stroke and 332 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 1: then was put on life support, and then people thought 333 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,479 Speaker 1: he had passed away, and then they said he would recover, 334 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: and then it ended up him just being on life 335 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 1: sport and then making the decision to take him off 336 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: life support. And I mean, man, the films that he 337 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: has made just alone. You know, he was the first 338 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: African American and I think youngest person to get the 339 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 1: Best director nod for Boys in the Hood U and 340 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 1: made a lot of great films to Poetic Justice and 341 00:19:55,040 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: Baby Boy Furious Style. Uh. Lawrence Fishburn from Boys in 342 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: the Hood is one of the great characters of all time. Man, 343 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: So dope. Higher Learning was a learning movie for me 344 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: when I went and saw it in the theater when 345 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: I was like in middle school or whatever. Yeah, I 346 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: was afraid to go to college. When I saw Learning, 347 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: I was like, is Michael Rappaport gonna become a skinhead 348 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,159 Speaker 1: to shoot everybody? Remy? Do it? Remy? And I remember 349 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: he said he called I felt bad when he said 350 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: mud people. He's like, I'm gonna kill all the mud people. 351 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: I was like, yo, I'm not the mud people. Like 352 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: the first time I as a kid, I was like 353 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: thinking about like racism like that. I was like, oh shit. 354 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: Also shout the rhymes. You got a cameo in that 355 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: movie too. Yeah. Yeah, I feel like you know that 356 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: everybody used to be named Remy, but after that movie, 357 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: like just so many people not not as many Remy's 358 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: out there. It was a low key Adolph Yeah yeah, 359 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: looky um yeah man. And I mean, I don't know, 360 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: this is a second uh kind of nineties luminary pop 361 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: culture figure who's passed away from a stroke in their fifties. 362 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: Like that's like because Perry had that same ship happened 363 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 1: like a dude who just yeah Singleton at least, Yeah, 364 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: and Luke Perry another person who was unapologetically black. Yeah, 365 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: that was the thing about Luke Perry, not of that, 366 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 1: but yeah, I think there that's one of the great 367 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: things about what John Singleton's films did. And uh yeah, 368 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: I think he will be missed pretty much absolutely. Man. 369 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: All right, And then finally we just want to say 370 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:33,439 Speaker 1: you're welcome to McDonald's. After they had a first quarter 371 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: earnings bonanza, sales jumped four point five pc in the 372 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: US maybe, which you know, they've been falling for for 373 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: a long time, so now they're bawling. Yeah, I mean 374 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: this is like, you know, they finally figured out that, uh, 375 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: you just need to get the podcast audience. And you know, 376 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: they listened to some Daily Zey guys and they were like, 377 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 1: you know what, I think these guys are tapped in. 378 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: These guys seem like they would like bacon. Their finger 379 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: isn't just on the pulse. I think they're actually setting 380 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: the fucking tempo, these weirdos. So yeah, look, we followed 381 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 1: the development of the bacon being introduced into McDonald's very closely. Okay, 382 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: we talked about it when they were testing it out 383 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: in certain test markets who said, oh shit, is it coming, 384 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: kept our eye on it, full on, rollout, preach the 385 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: gospel high and wide. And now look at now look 386 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,959 Speaker 1: at McDonald's four and a half percent increase, and they 387 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 1: even attribute that to successful promotions including the bacon event, 388 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 1: Daily Zeitgeist and the two for five mix and match. Okay, 389 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: I had I did that last part, but you know, 390 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: I think it's also just yeah, I mean internet bacon culture. Yeah, 391 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: as much as I would, you know what, it's all 392 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: you thank you so much that gang we did it. Uh, 393 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: Now we just need to do more useful things that 394 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 1: will help more people than just increasing the profits of McDonald's. 395 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: I guess she was a case test. Yeah, yeah, I 396 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: guess I will say that maybe it didn't help that 397 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: much that I said it was whack from the beginning 398 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 1: and uh that the ken Jong ads were the just 399 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 1: most cringe inducing uh ads on on TV in the 400 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: past year. But I still think we made that bump pop. 401 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and pat myself on back. Right, Yes, 402 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: it's almos when you think about it. Yeah, all right, 403 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 1: well you're welcome McDonald's. We're gonna take a quick break 404 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: to uh save another business and save another global mega 405 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: corps right with with the advertisement you're about to hear, 406 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:52,360 Speaker 1: and we'll be right back after that, and we're back 407 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 1: and who we were talking about some corporations that we love. 408 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: Over the break, Um, let's talk about the synagogue shooting 409 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: that happened last weekend. Nineteen year old white nationalist terrorist 410 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 1: opened fire at a synagogue in Poway, California, and apparently 411 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: the FBI received a tip from someone that had seen 412 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: a very disturbing post on eight Chan h it was 413 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 1: the shooters manifesto, and you know the tipster quickly sent 414 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: that ship over to law enforcement. That was twenty minutes 415 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 1: before the shooting began. Uh, and the FBI is just 416 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: sucking underfunded, weren't able to catch it. Yeah, I mean, 417 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 1: I think a lot of evidence is pointing to the 418 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: fact that the priorities not on domestic terrorism and like 419 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 1: at every at every instance when there's a chance to 420 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: be like, I don't think we need that. That's sort 421 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 1: of what DHS does. And uh and the FBI has, 422 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 1: I think increasingly having to monitor it because the attacks 423 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: are becoming more and more frequent. But I still don't 424 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 1: know if there's really that actual emphasis on it to 425 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: treat this like like they do extremist Islamic terrorism in 426 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: this country, because they were very quick to thwart like 427 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: a mass casualty attack in Los Angeles with a man 428 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: who had recently converted to Islam, who was seeking retribution 429 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: for the mosque attacks in New Zealand, and he was 430 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 1: basically wanting to attack white nationalists, Jews, churches, military basis. 431 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 1: It was like he was trying to get everybody, but 432 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,360 Speaker 1: on the on the other end though, just to interject here. 433 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: The FBI, as you know, as you're saying where they're 434 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 1: when they're targeting Islamic communities or Muslim communities, they've they've 435 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: totally shot the bed on that several times, like pain 436 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: informants to try to make people radical. Like do you 437 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: guys remember those stories if you like in New York, right, Yeah, 438 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 1: a lot of entrapment going on. So they're going above 439 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: and beyond the rules of justice and logic to you know, 440 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: occasionally in trapped Islamic terrorists in the United States, and 441 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 1: they're so busy focusing on that and spending money on 442 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 1: that that they are not catching some of the white 443 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 1: nationalist terrorists. Yeah, you know, that's a seems like a 444 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: thing that's from the top down. I think we've covered 445 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: recently that they took away funding from d initiative of 446 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 1: DHS and white nationalists and their ability to coordinate with 447 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: local law enforcement on assessing these kinds of threats. And 448 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,679 Speaker 1: you know, when you talk about this kind of uh, 449 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 1: this story, right, like, the FBI is becoming very alarmed 450 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 1: because the time it takes from somebody to begin interacting 451 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: with like these materials and then becoming fully radicalized and 452 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: possibly take enacting some kind of lone wolf attack has 453 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: become like shorter and shorter um and there aren't They 454 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 1: aren't really when people are like, yo, a lot of 455 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 1: this ship is happening at h N. Whyren't you doing it? 456 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 1: The sort of the main thing for the FBI is that, look, 457 00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: you know, hate speech isn't illegal, so they can't really 458 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: open a terror investigation based on activity that's protected by 459 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 1: the First Amendment. And now that's sort of the logic 460 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 1: that's being applied to this, But repeatedly we've seen over 461 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: and over that there's a very much concentrated place where 462 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: a lot of this activity is happening, where people are 463 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: becoming radicalized or interacting with this kind of you know material. Yeah. Uh, 464 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: I mean they should just be monitoring eight Chan like 465 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: Tom Cruise in Minority Report, monitoring those uh press just 466 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: ready to fucking fire out of a can and anytime 467 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: something put the manifesto up because they don't seem to 468 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: be fucking around, uh and they definitely seem to respect 469 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 1: the rights of white nationalists to express themselves more than 470 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: radical Islamic. Well, yeah, now you see it. But it's like, 471 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: you know, the radicalization is just increasing on both ends 472 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,959 Speaker 1: of the spectrum, higher and higher. And you know, when 473 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 1: you think of like the lack of resources or proper 474 00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:00,360 Speaker 1: emphasis from law enforcement, it's like, then what happened? If 475 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,239 Speaker 1: these attacks are people who are perpetrating these attacks, they 476 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: begin outnumbering the ability of law enforcement even monitor these things. 477 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: And then you know, yeah, don't you think that the 478 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: average person just watching television now is even if they're 479 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: not really thinking about it, surely everyone has caught onto 480 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 1: this tendency, right, Like the white shooter is called mentally 481 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: ill or something, and then the other people are called 482 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: a terrorists, right, but these this is this is a 483 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: rise of terrorism. And he's looking at uh some statistics 484 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: recently and already in the statistics indicate that, uh that 485 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 1: if there is a mass shooting uh in this country, 486 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: it's over. It's it's more likely to be a white 487 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: nationalist or a white like racially motivated murderer. So yeah, 488 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: I don't like it's the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Is 489 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: it too much to ask that the investigate just occasionally? Yeah? Well, 490 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: I think I think as the again, I think with 491 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: the frequency, you'd hope that that becomes that if the 492 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: president isn't taking that action that maybe people internally at 493 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: the Bureau are just out of a sense of decency 494 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,719 Speaker 1: to protect the people. But it's not just this president. Uh. 495 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: You know, there was an article about the complete lack 496 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: of preparation in Homeland Security and the FBI for domestic 497 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: terror and you know, right wing terror. Uh, following Charlottesville, 498 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: Like this dude saw that the next place that Richard 499 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: Spencer was going to appear was in his town. And 500 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: he was a cop, and so he like started calling 501 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: around to try and get you know, the information and 502 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: like all the background on Richard Spencer and all the 503 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: people who were like white nationalist terrorists, and he found 504 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: there weren't any. Because the Obama administration early on had 505 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: tried to address this and put out a report talking 506 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,959 Speaker 1: about the rise and right wing nationalism and right wing 507 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: terrorism and the right the Fox News is of the 508 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: world and the Rush Limbi got so bent out of 509 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: shape that they that the Obama administration basically backed down 510 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: and apologized for raising the issue rather than just being 511 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: like no, man, like, no, I'm looking at facts. Yes, 512 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: So they basically had to scrap that. I mean they 513 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: didn't have to, but be acting as politicians. You know, 514 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: the Obama administration just sort of did the thing that 515 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: they knew would cause the least drama and no turbulence. 516 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 1: I don't want to rock the boat too much. And 517 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 1: now we're you know, we're dealing with that, and we 518 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: have a president who thinks there are some very fine 519 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: people who might get caught up if we if we 520 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: start arresting people. And he's even doubling down on that too, 521 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: because again, someone was like, do you still think they 522 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: were good? Was like, oh, yeah, it was perfect. Remember 523 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: he tripled down. Yeah, I know what I mean. I 524 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 1: don't know if he fully remembers what he said earlier, 525 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: but he's been consistent on that point. You know. Well, 526 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: let's talk about the Obama administration because, like we said, 527 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: his grandfather, Joe Biden, just dropped a new ad. So 528 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: I'm it's Joe Biden's campaign ads, so it must star 529 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, right, Well um, well yeah, well here, I mean, 530 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: just listen to this and tell me if this sounds Look, 531 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: listen to Joe Biden's new campaign. This is an extraordinary man, huh, 532 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,479 Speaker 1: with an extraordinary career in public service, somebody who has 533 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: devoted his entire professional life. I remember, I remember him. 534 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: He revitalized American manufacturing as the head of our middle 535 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: Class task Force. He fought to make college more affordable, 536 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: scruded up for our cancer moonshot, giving hope to millions 537 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 1: of Americans. Drums. Joe's Ken counsel has made me a 538 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:59,479 Speaker 1: better president. He let our It's on us campaign against 539 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: campus sexual assault, to protect violence, bad gun violence. He 540 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: could not have been a more effective partner in the 541 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: progress that we've make. All right, I mean, well, then 542 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: Joe Biden get comes in and just starts overseeing. So 543 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 1: like the emptiest stuff reason we need ideas, right, America 544 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: is an idea bigger than any ocean, larger than any giant. 545 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on, my man, man, what's you know, 546 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: say a fucking actual idea? Please? Yeah. I think the 547 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: one thing he did say that like was somewhat on wax. 548 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: Didn't he mention unions Like yeah, yeah, I mean he 549 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,959 Speaker 1: mentioned unions of them and they got they support him. 550 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,479 Speaker 1: There's a lot of there's a lot of Clinton two 551 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: thousand and sixteen in this ad though, Like it's showing 552 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: a bunch of different smiling faces and you know, just 553 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: putting out broad platitudes and you know, just being like, 554 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 1: if you liked Obama, then you will love this gets 555 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: it's literally just being like remember these days? What about that? 556 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: And look, I get all the nostalgia around Biden, um, 557 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 1: but he's very much demonstrated that he has already hit 558 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: peak ideas. UM. And not to say that he doesn't 559 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: have like a worldview that would be positive for the country, 560 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: but it's not forward thinking enough. And like, there are 561 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: other candidates that are also older, but they have ideas 562 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: that are new at least to this system. UM. And 563 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: so those those are a little bit more interesting to 564 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: me than someone who you know, I pretty much get 565 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: what their whole platform and agenda is going to be. UM, 566 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: but is it Isn't he like deep deep like ride 567 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: or die level with insurance companies, a couple of other 568 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: big painters, credit card industry, Hello Delaware, you know what 569 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: I mean? All the credit card companies ran out. He's 570 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: not gonna pull up to them. So again, I get 571 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: everybody the even the sound of Obama's voice I think 572 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: makes most people who are on the left go funk. God, 573 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: I miss this ship. Yeah, I guess you couldn't be 574 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: that And I think that's why his he's pulling so well. Look, 575 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: I do think old dogs can learn new tricks, but 576 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: Joe Biden will have to show me a shipload of 577 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 1: new tricks, Like he would have to be like sea walking, 578 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 1: hitting them folks, mille rocking many new things to show 579 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: me that Joe Biden is up. But you know he's still. 580 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 1: I mean, his polling numbers are out there. Yeah, yeah, No. 581 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 1: People people like a grandfatherly dude who just smiles and 582 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 1: makes it look like he has somewhere there's originalism his 583 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,800 Speaker 1: pocket and is trying to press his head into your skull. 584 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:40,320 Speaker 1: He's like, come on, let me get that. That's the 585 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: thing I gotta ask with that, just just on you guys, 586 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: take here. Oh what what's going on? I have to 587 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 1: admit right now, as the people line up for the primaries, 588 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,879 Speaker 1: I've been a little I don't want to say out 589 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: of the loop, but I've been giving it time to 590 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: develop because I'm like, all right, man, I'm not emotionally 591 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: to you to gamble on one of these twenty people. 592 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 1: Yet get it down to like five and then they 593 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: can make a decision. But why wasn't there more backlash 594 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: about the different stuff with him invading people's personal space. 595 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 1: Is it just the context of politics now because the 596 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 1: president is that times a million or what? Well, I 597 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:22,240 Speaker 1: think the Overton windows completely fucked because of the President. 598 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: So a guy who's just like kind of like hugging 599 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 1: too long and do another weird stuff doesn't seem I 600 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 1: think for the most part, it's the the establishment that 601 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: wants him so bad. They're not gonna they're not gonna 602 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,239 Speaker 1: hold him accountable. The only people that were really raising 603 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 1: the alarm on that were people who are further to 604 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 1: the left than Biden, because those are the people who 605 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 1: sort of get the nuances of people's personal space and 606 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: like this man entering people's per personal space. I think 607 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 1: the backlash to that criticism was particularly strong for the 608 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: reason for the reason Myles just mentioned that like people 609 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 1: want Biden toy. They just want to beat Trump by 610 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: any means nest Sarah, and he seems like the uh safest, 611 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 1: like the biggest hammer that the Democrats can wheeled against him. 612 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: I also heard a lot of people not just like 613 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 1: on Fox News, but even people out in the world 614 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: talking about it was almost like a wilful conflating the 615 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: criticism of Biden kissing people on the back of the 616 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 1: head and you know, doing weird shit with like the 617 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: me Too movement. They're like, well, it's not like he's Weinstein, 618 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: like this is. And I heard like a woman say, like, 619 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 1: you know, this is getting out of hand now, we 620 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: can't even like do And it's almost like where nobody 621 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,399 Speaker 1: was saying what he was doing was the same as 622 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:45,359 Speaker 1: the primes, just pointing that's an invasion of personal space 623 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: that you should be willing to apologize for it. But again, 624 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 1: I think it's it's very it's early days, and you know, 625 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: I think most people really do just think of there 626 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,320 Speaker 1: there's something soothing about the idea of Joe Biden. So 627 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 1: I get this coology of people being really interested in him, 628 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,760 Speaker 1: But I think, yeah, once they're all on the debate 629 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 1: stage and they're actually presenting what their visions are, I 630 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: think it'll be easier, hopefully be easier for people to 631 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,439 Speaker 1: be like, I don't know if he's coming with it, yeah, 632 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 1: but I don't know. Polling suggests, you know, I'm I'm 633 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: kind of an outlier when it comes like to my 634 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 1: own ideology in that sense, but the majority of people 635 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: are very interested. There's this great distinction I want to 636 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 1: make here. For for a while, I don't know if 637 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 1: you guys read this, but for a while the Onion 638 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 1: would run articles on a very different Joe Biden, who 639 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 1: is like this, uh, this burned out former uh met 640 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: hard rock roadie. I gotta, I gotta send you these 641 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 1: things that Joe Biden, the guy who like tries to 642 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: sell dirt weed outside of the White House and stuff. Uh, 643 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: that guy I would vote for in a second. I 644 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: just don't think he's the same as as the bank 645 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 1: buddy from Delaware, you know, so I'm skeptical, yeah, or 646 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: the guy who, by way of compromise, or in order 647 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: to achieve compromise, fuck Anita hill Over when she because 648 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: he's he likes to stay friends with everyone, both on 649 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,520 Speaker 1: the right and the left. Another problem that we haven't 650 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: mentioned yet that Biden is going to have to work on, 651 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: probably not quite as big as the ones that we 652 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 1: were talking about, is that when he gave his first speech, 653 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:29,280 Speaker 1: he sounded somewhat Trumpian, and we we have a clip 654 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 1: of this. I want to thank uh Rich fards Gerald, 655 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,759 Speaker 1: the County executive, val Jetty County Executive, being here and 656 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 1: all my time in public life from the stuff gotten involved. 657 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 1: The country wasn't built by Wall Street bankers CEO and 658 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: Hu Hu's fun manager. If he had a price, it's 659 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 1: hard times. Everybody took a hit. Yeah, so the U 660 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 1: A W. Basically, what you're hearing there is him sounding drunk, 661 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: which is something we've noticed Trump does occasionally in speech 662 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: is and the cause of that is people have speculated 663 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: is that his teeth are probably falling out. Maybe he 664 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 1: got some new chompers. I'm not you know, I think 665 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:12,840 Speaker 1: he's got he's got some loose dentris, but I don't know. 666 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, there's you know, it's just let the manseler, 667 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, it's weird when you isolated. But yeah, yeah, 668 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: it sounds like that was. That was a highlight reel 669 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 1: put together by I think a right wing website. But 670 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: they're like, oh so they didn't mention that Trump slers. 671 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 1: They were just like, is is sleepy Joe drunk on 672 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 1: the job or you know whatever? Like they got dentures? Man? Yeah, 673 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 1: have you ever do you have any you know, elderly 674 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: family who haves dent and you didn't know I have dentures. 675 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 1: Those are dentures. Yeah, bro, why are they all crooked? Yeah? 676 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 1: But I do like the idea that Biden and Trump 677 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 1: were like talking about, who's like I take him out 678 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: back and kick his ass, like before they had any 679 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 1: sort of fist fight. It would like book the teeth out. 680 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 1: Let's not let's not around here's expensive put them on there. 681 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: It's like it's like the old white guy version of 682 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,439 Speaker 1: taking off your earrings and your shoes right right, yeah, 683 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 1: or like an old duel, it's the old glove slaps out. 684 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 1: All right. The GOP has come up with their playbook 685 00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: for it seems like point it plans for expanding Medicare 686 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:37,879 Speaker 1: and addressing climate change and scream socialism. Yeah. I think 687 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: that's good. Yeah. And then also along with that is 688 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 1: to not offer any alternative to that. It's just scream 689 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: at that big socialism. And that should work because they've 690 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 1: been trying it. I mean, it works on their base 691 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,239 Speaker 1: since they're all convinced that that's the reason why Venezuela 692 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 1: is in the condition that it's in now. If you 693 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: look at all the takes on what's happened, like see 694 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: what social um does, see what sociom does not. Economic 695 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 1: blockades put in place by the United States and the 696 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: EU in order to install a leader that might allow 697 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: the plunder of their precious, precious crude oil. I don't know, 698 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:09,400 Speaker 1: but that's a whole other story. Um So, yeah, the 699 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,319 Speaker 1: socialist attack. Look, it did not work in political They 700 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,400 Speaker 1: had an article they're showing like in Pennsylvania that was 701 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 1: like their mid term strategy. It's like, yo, these people 702 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,440 Speaker 1: just hit them on socialism, hit them on that they 703 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: want to talk about healthcare, call them pink o socialist communists, 704 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 1: whatever the new phrases. And that led to double digit 705 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: losses in both like the governor's race and senate races, 706 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 1: and then they even lost like seats in the House 707 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: and Senate, the state legislature, Congress. This is not really 708 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 1: good plan. If anything, it seems to be making it 709 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 1: more popular because I don't know, there's they just don't 710 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: have a they don't have an alternative, and it's just 711 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 1: it's a really odd strategy strategy to just be like nah, 712 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: that's that's lame, uh and that's I don't think that's 713 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:52,799 Speaker 1: going to motivate enough people. But it seems like they're 714 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:56,840 Speaker 1: still really attached to this plant. Yeah. I mean there's 715 00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:03,439 Speaker 1: something about conservatism that rejects or resists moving on from 716 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,800 Speaker 1: the way it was, and you know, their ideal place 717 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 1: is nineteen fifties made up America, like pleasant Ville America, 718 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: where you could still accuse someone of communism and have 719 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,760 Speaker 1: a pretty good chance of getting them put in jail 720 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 1: and burned at the stake for tried for witchcraft. Is 721 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 1: it that the party like the only new ideas are 722 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: about being cruel to people like marginalized people. I think 723 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: those are the only new ideas I see. Well, I 724 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 1: do think that when when you're the incumbent, you're less 725 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:43,360 Speaker 1: pushing like actual policy because you're just like, read it 726 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 1: and weep ladies. Right, But even like in the presidential race, 727 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 1: it was more like I mean, sure there was like 728 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: that fake populism going on too, but even like the 729 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,439 Speaker 1: people in the debate, I don't know, there's just something 730 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 1: about even just the way I see conservative conservativism now, 731 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 1: the only new creative ideas are just about cruelty. Yeah, 732 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: it's populism vague economic populism. Yeah. I would say neo 733 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 1: feudalism is the end goal for at least a lot 734 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 1: of um like the Koch brothers, that that we shouted 735 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,439 Speaker 1: out at the top of the show. You know they're 736 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 1: they're pretty they're pretty blatant and explicit, at least when 737 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 1: when speaking in private fundraisers or when they are not 738 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 1: doing a speech for the Hoi poloi or whatever. There 739 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:32,360 Speaker 1: are two different faces of of the movement or of 740 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 1: the school of thought, and the public is being sold 741 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 1: on this idea of As you said, Jack, this this 742 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: romanticized or largely fictional version of some nineteen fifties society. 743 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 1: But the weird thing is back then, in that post 744 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 1: World War two boom, there were many more uh dare 745 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,800 Speaker 1: we call them socialists like policies in the US, and 746 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 1: they were to the advantage of the people who lived there. 747 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:05,919 Speaker 1: You know, it's just I just I can't do it, guys. 748 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 1: I don't know what the new ideas are. The new 749 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 1: ideas are all like repackaging of old ideas. And I 750 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: don't mean old ideas. Is in just like jerrymandering and segregation. 751 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 1: I do straight up mean feudalism, moving the poor away 752 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: from a um an ownership economy into a service economy. 753 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: You don't own things, you just rent them, you pay 754 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 1: a service, privatizing everything. I don't understand how no one 755 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 1: is I don't understand how anyone is able to avoid 756 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 1: being fucking terrified when you go to something that's like 757 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:43,320 Speaker 1: a government function and you see how privatized it's become. 758 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: Like searching for stuff on DDS or the d m 759 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 1: V whatever they call it in your state, or like 760 00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 1: even paying taxes. The I R S. Dot gov site 761 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:55,360 Speaker 1: refers you to all these privatized sites that are clearly 762 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:59,400 Speaker 1: owned by people associated with Congress. It's it's ship, it's 763 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 1: shipped all the way down. I don't know what we're 764 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 1: gonna do. Sorry, I don't know. It sounds like you're 765 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 1: a socialist. Yeah, that's um and that's the and that's 766 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,800 Speaker 1: the tactic. And you heard that guy man, he's spinning 767 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 1: his other guys socialist talking about Uh, let's talk real 768 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: quick about a place that ben might want to move 769 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 1: and that's Venezuela, because they may be The Venezuela is 770 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,719 Speaker 1: in the news because yesterday there was a lot of 771 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: you know, conflict and uh, Guido essentially it was calling 772 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 1: for the military to rise up. People took to the 773 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 1: streets and you know, the takes came in. Uh John 774 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 1: Bolton and everybody was like, we stand behind the people 775 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 1: of Venezuela or whatever it's They're just basically being like, oh, 776 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 1: we're ready to come in at some point. Uh. And 777 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 1: you know, most people, like has anybody seen our track 778 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,920 Speaker 1: record on intervention in South and Central America? It does 779 00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,719 Speaker 1: not end well for anybody. Uh. And so it's just yeah, 780 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, as as we're recorded now, I mean, 781 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:06,319 Speaker 1: things are I don't I don't know where things stand. 782 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 1: I mean I saw some reports where Maduro was saying 783 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:11,239 Speaker 1: that the or the military said that they had successfully 784 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 1: fought off this coup attempt or as they call you know, 785 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what. I don't know where they stand 786 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:17,880 Speaker 1: right now. I think John Bolton was supposed to give 787 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:22,440 Speaker 1: some kind of remarks from Sesame Street with the other muppets. Um. 788 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 1: But well, yeah, there's supposedly today there's going to be 789 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:29,840 Speaker 1: a bunch of protests. White ohs saying it's going to 790 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 1: be the biggest protests in you know, the history of 791 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 1: the country and a turning point, and you know, basically 792 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 1: promoting the idea that there be an overthrow or you know, 793 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 1: a people's uprising. Uh. And Maduro does not seem to 794 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 1: think that's a great idea. So, I mean it's almost 795 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,280 Speaker 1: it's almost like a scheduled civil war, Like they're like, Okay, 796 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 1: this is when we're all gonna do the thing now 797 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:02,399 Speaker 1: that we all disagree on. Then we'll have guns for Yeah. 798 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,600 Speaker 1: So John Bolton did say we want as our principal 799 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:09,880 Speaker 1: objective a peaceful transfer of power, but quote, all options 800 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:13,840 Speaker 1: are on the table. So yeah, and he says that 801 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 1: the US is prepared to use the military option to 802 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:21,920 Speaker 1: support Juan Guido and Venezuela. Uh, terrible idea. Yeah, but 803 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 1: I think it's economic warfare. I think you guys hit 804 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 1: the nail on the head earlier. I mean, without being 805 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:32,759 Speaker 1: an expert in the internal politics of Venezuela. Looking at 806 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:36,239 Speaker 1: as you said, the US track record, which you know, 807 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:40,359 Speaker 1: our interventions in South America are to a large part 808 00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:43,440 Speaker 1: enabled by the same guy who popularized bacon as a 809 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:48,280 Speaker 1: breakfast food, Edward Burns. So I guess I guess McDonald 810 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 1: should thank him, Venezuela should curse him. I know, I'm 811 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:56,399 Speaker 1: bringing back full certain that that's true. The dude who 812 00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:59,879 Speaker 1: that is true? He was like a marketing genius, right, Yeah, 813 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:03,320 Speaker 1: the father of pr He wrote a book called propaganda, 814 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:07,520 Speaker 1: where the argument is basically like, people tell people what 815 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:09,920 Speaker 1: to think and make them think it was their idea. 816 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: And uh, and yeah, he's somewhere between a genius and 817 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: a monster, not mutually exclusive, but yeah, he did. He 818 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:21,400 Speaker 1: popularized bacon. He's the reason that the US went to 819 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 1: Station Coup's in the nineteen fifties, nineteen fifty four in particular, 820 00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 1: what else do you do? Oh? He popularized smoking tobacco 821 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,919 Speaker 1: with women. He associated with women's suffrage. You guys, would 822 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 1: I mean you guys, would uh find this dude interesting 823 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: to hang out with? He's dead, thankfully, it still sounds 824 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,279 Speaker 1: cool to hang out with. Yeah, definitely seems like a 825 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:48,920 Speaker 1: cool hang Exhumed corpses of story, a lot of stories. Okay, 826 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna take one more break. We'll be 827 00:48:52,120 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 1: right back, and we're back. And a couple of quick stories. First, 828 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:11,440 Speaker 1: Haleema Aiden is making history as the first model to 829 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:15,840 Speaker 1: wear he jab and berkini in Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. 830 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 1: You know, Sports Illustrated came out said we're absolutely thrilled 831 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 1: to announce this making history. Is the first Muslim model 832 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:26,840 Speaker 1: to wear a hejab and berkeni in the magazine, and 833 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 1: you know there's been some I don't know, it hasn't 834 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:36,279 Speaker 1: been exclusively greeted as a breakthrough, right. Yeah. So there's 835 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 1: a there's a website called faith wire dot com, which, uh, 836 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,879 Speaker 1: you might assume is just documents all faiths, all all 837 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:48,319 Speaker 1: manners of faith. Uh. Turns out no. Uh. They say 838 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 1: it's not okay to promote a modesty culture because they 839 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 1: think it's oppressive. But then they also seem to object 840 00:49:56,120 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 1: that they're only promoting Islam when they don't promote Mormonism 841 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:04,880 Speaker 1: or fundamentalist Christianity. So they seem to really be taking 842 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:07,239 Speaker 1: sides for some reason, even though they're supposed to be 843 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 1: covering faith. Um. That that a quote from Lalo Daggitch, 844 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 1: which is a real person apparently at radio host uh 845 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 1: tweeted which religious modesty culture will you promote next? Evangelical, Christian, Catholic, Mormon, Amish, Orthodox, Jewish? 846 00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:27,560 Speaker 1: Or will it just be Islam? It's just going to 847 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 1: be Islam, isn't it. Uh? You know, because he's just 848 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:36,600 Speaker 1: used to as a Christian male white, he's used to 849 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 1: being persecuted, uh in his own life. So it's just 850 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:45,479 Speaker 1: like more of this. Oh yeah, Well let me guess more, 851 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,919 Speaker 1: just you should hang out with Stephen Moore. Yeah yeah, 852 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:52,840 Speaker 1: it sounds like Next Man our wives at our bachelor party. 853 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 1: That's right. This guy sounds like a blasted parties. Yeah. Yeah, 854 00:50:57,760 --> 00:50:59,800 Speaker 1: you know he's like, Oh, I didn't know Sports Illustrated 855 00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:04,879 Speaker 1: uge their name to Sharia Law Illustrated. Oh cool. I'm 856 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 1: sure like we're and I'm sure people on Twitter we're 857 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 1: also having a fucking time about that. What is this? Yeah, 858 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:18,239 Speaker 1: so you know it's a just another little bullshit make 859 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 1: them up in the in the cultural Wars, Sure, Ben 860 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: Shapiro will have somebody saying yeah. And speaking of the 861 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: culture Wars, the another probably the most controversial uh event 862 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 1: of the past week was the dropping of the trailer 863 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:43,359 Speaker 1: for the news Sonic movie Sonic the Restaurant. Yes, they're 864 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: doing a movie about the those two guys in the car, 865 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,880 Speaker 1: just them talking for any of them, uh, the bigger 866 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 1: ices or whatever they got over there. It's a bigger 867 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:58,000 Speaker 1: cinematic universe for fast food. Right. Do you know those 868 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:00,840 Speaker 1: guys were actually the ad executive US who pitched that 869 00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:04,719 Speaker 1: ad and they were like, nailed it, guys, you guys 870 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,840 Speaker 1: are the best really? Yeah? Or they were part of 871 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 1: the ad agency. Well, because they're comedians, right. One of 872 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 1: those one started out as an ad executive and then 873 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 1: tried to launch his career once he became that Sonic guy. Yeah, 874 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 1: what are you talking about? That guy is at the top. Well, 875 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:25,360 Speaker 1: and the reason we're bringing him up is he is 876 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 1: playing Uh no, he's I don't know what he's doing 877 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:33,880 Speaker 1: in his career. But Sonic the Hedgehog actually Miles uh 878 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 1: staple of my childhood. And you actually you said you 879 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,719 Speaker 1: thought it was kind of a well executed I mean, look, 880 00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:45,240 Speaker 1: I didn't have Sega Genesis, so I'm not as offended 881 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:49,200 Speaker 1: as some of the people I see on just the internet. Right. Um, 882 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:51,239 Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna be a good film, But 883 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 1: the marketing is kind of interesting because you're mashing up 884 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:57,839 Speaker 1: all these things like nineties kids would have can recognize 885 00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 1: which is the Sonic the Hedgehog off Sleep. Then you 886 00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,480 Speaker 1: have Jim Carrey, who's you know, robotanic. He's doing some 887 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:08,879 Speaker 1: very Jim Carrey stuff and you're like enjoyably so it's 888 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:13,800 Speaker 1: like it's Ace. It's it's old Jim Carrey Ace Venturis style. 889 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 1: And then to cap it all off, they got the soundtrack. 890 00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:20,720 Speaker 1: They got Gangster's Paradise playing in the trailer, which thematically 891 00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 1: not totally clear how that connects back to Sonic the Hedgehog. 892 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 1: But I guess it never has connected to anything that 893 00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:33,839 Speaker 1: tried to use it, like dangerous Minds. I guess, yeah, 894 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:37,320 Speaker 1: those kids are out there. Yeah, but you know, I 895 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,760 Speaker 1: like there was a seemed like an aggressive Puma product 896 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:43,080 Speaker 1: placement shot when he's like gearing up to go. There's 897 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 1: like a shot from his shoes up and he's wearing Pumas, 898 00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, sod Tumas, Like they could have 899 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:53,319 Speaker 1: made up a cooler shoe for him to wear. But yeah, 900 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:56,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I guess people are people 901 00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:58,759 Speaker 1: are just like weirded out by it. I guess yeah. 902 00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:03,359 Speaker 1: I mean I haven't totally executed like somebody. I think. 903 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 1: Nick Wiger pointed out that his vision of Sonic does 904 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:11,879 Speaker 1: not have two eyes. It has more, uh like ski 905 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:15,440 Speaker 1: goggle eyes, like one big guy with two pupils that 906 00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:20,399 Speaker 1: is like connected by a thinner part of the which 907 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,840 Speaker 1: is how he was always illustrated. And then they create 908 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:29,839 Speaker 1: this stupid looking Sonic that it has us. It looks 909 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 1: really rough I'm watching the trailer without the sound on. Now. Yeah, 910 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 1: when you guys pulled it up, and it's like, it's 911 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,560 Speaker 1: like the version of that old meme where you know 912 00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 1: the kids like, Mom, can we go get some food? 913 00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:46,480 Speaker 1: Can we go out to eat? And they're like, we 914 00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:49,040 Speaker 1: have food at home and the food at home is garbage. Man. 915 00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 1: This Sonic looks read hard and it's like, yeah, we 916 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: got Sonic at home, and it's like, what right you 917 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 1: want to play with Sonic? Sure you do? Here is yeah, 918 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:01,239 Speaker 1: I'll make it. I can make that. Yeah, it's I 919 00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 1: don't know, but they're there. Yeah, it does. It does 920 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 1: look like it's a first draft. Uh. Yeah, it's just 921 00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. I like how some people are just 922 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 1: like this new movie could funk right off this fucking 923 00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:21,239 Speaker 1: what the funk was that? I mean, like some of 924 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,520 Speaker 1: my favorite people on Twitter are like to like a 925 00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 1: pixelated boat is like that, he's not too happy. Yeah. 926 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if anyone could win, because what we 927 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 1: saw as Sonic, based on the Genesis games and the 928 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 1: cover art and even the cartoons was nothing that you 929 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:40,000 Speaker 1: could actually envision what it would look like if it 930 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:42,680 Speaker 1: was meant to be a little more three dimensional, so 931 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 1: you wouldn't know, like what his hair looks like if 932 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 1: it is it hair, because this is like a bunch 933 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,840 Speaker 1: of blue triangles to me, you know. And then like 934 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,480 Speaker 1: so they were it wasn't I don't think a game 935 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:53,880 Speaker 1: they could win. Yeah, just like how how I think 936 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,840 Speaker 1: people were a little weird about seeing the Detective Pikachu rendering. 937 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,160 Speaker 1: But people seem to be coming around to the Pikachu 938 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:01,279 Speaker 1: thing more. I don't know. Yeah, Pikachu I think looks 939 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:04,320 Speaker 1: good like for but I had never really spent a 940 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:06,920 Speaker 1: lot of time picturing what Pikachu would look like in reality. 941 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 1: So you say that now, right, Yeah, yeah, like I don't. 942 00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 1: I don't have fan art, so like it. It's not 943 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,880 Speaker 1: like it. You mean, you don't have a tattoo? Doesn't 944 00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 1: bother me. Miles might look different from my tattoo, but 945 00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't bother me. But that's my version because I'm 946 00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 1: a man, I'm an adult. Now let me have them 947 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:32,759 Speaker 1: pass you. This is what my therapist says, uh, maymes. 948 00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:36,719 Speaker 1: But there's also so some some reasons to not be 949 00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:41,439 Speaker 1: quite so quick to just reject this out right. Ben, 950 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:45,200 Speaker 1: I always want to call him Ben Joseph Ben Schwartz, 951 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:51,160 Speaker 1: the very funny Ralph John Ralphael John Raphael from Parks 952 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 1: and rec That's the only thing, and also BB eight 953 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:58,239 Speaker 1: uh b b It's voice from from the Star Wars 954 00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:02,239 Speaker 1: films is voice sing Sonic the Hedgehog, and there's there's 955 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:06,040 Speaker 1: just some good comedic talent in addition to Jim Carrey 956 00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:10,640 Speaker 1: vintage Jim Carrey. It's written by one of the dudes 957 00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 1: from the dough Boys podcast, not one of the hosts, 958 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:19,560 Speaker 1: but one of the frequent guests and the commissioner of 959 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:27,160 Speaker 1: their annual tournament.

I was 963 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:38,600 Speaker 1: here for it, and I will probably not see this 964 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:42,720 Speaker 1: movie because I don't see movies anymore because I'm a father. 965 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:45,439 Speaker 1: But you know, wow, you blame me your kids, Yeah, 966 00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 1: they because I just don't have any free time because 967 00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:53,040 Speaker 1: of these damned kids.
