1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of Happy

2
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:10,719
Speaker 1: one hundredth Birthday. Jimmy Carter. Oh wow, Yeah, my name

3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 1: is jack gimme car Trent, my name is Jackie.

4
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 2: Get over.

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: There is Miles that hey, gimme carteron. Rolls off the

6
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: rolls off the tonu. And this is the episode where

7
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,800
Speaker 1: we tell you what is trending in America's share consciousness.

8
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:32,239
Speaker 1: Obviously the big story right now Iran launched about one

9
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty ballistic missiles at Israel. And yeah, I

10
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: mean we've conducted some interviews with experts and international relations

11
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 1: and this seems bad. Yeah, is the conclusion.

12
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:52,520
Speaker 2: It's just the constant escalation the US again, like we

13
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: refuse to exert any kind of leverage over Israel as

14
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 2: it just looks like they're they're seeking some kind of

15
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 2: massive regional war. Is just again like for all the

16
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 2: talk of like safety of people, this is and I

17
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 2: don't see how this is making anyone safer. And like

18
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 2: you're pointing out, I think on Monday about just sort

19
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: of this idea of like escalation to de escalate, which

20
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 2: is sort of like rhetorically what Israel is saying is

21
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 2: not effective. It's only inflaming things. You now have missiles

22
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,320
Speaker 2: heading into your country because of the expansion of all

23
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: this aggression, not just in Gaza in the West Bank,

24
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 2: but now you're in Lebanon and displace like a quarter

25
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 2: at least, I think they're saying at least one million

26
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 2: people have been displaced internally in Lebanon and others are

27
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 2: going to Syria. Just like and we talked about this.

28
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: You hear about this tomorrow show, like you know, a

29
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 2: lot of like in Michigan, there are concerns about what

30
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 2: this is doing to the Harris campaign's ability to actually

31
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 2: win in Michigan because of the lack of any movement

32
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 2: in a different direction from what Biden is doing, which

33
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: is sort of like looking the other way. And I

34
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 2: just yeah, at the beginning of the year, I remember

35
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 2: when we were talking about predictions, I was just like,

36
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 2: there's the fact that the United States is not doing

37
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 2: anything tangible about the genocide and the occupation is going

38
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 2: It's some there's some something is this isn't just going

39
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: to come to pass.

40
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 1: It's not gonna blowover.

41
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, no, in some way, there is going

42
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: to be some kind of a reaction to the lack

43
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 2: of action. Uh, and yeah, and you're just saying this

44
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 2: now with the constant just escalation escalation you had, you know,

45
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 2: at the UN, you had foreign ministers of like these

46
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 2: Arab countries saying like, look we have we're offering a

47
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 2: diplomatic off ramp here, like it doesn't need to be

48
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 2: this way. And for all the talk that you hear

49
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: from net and Yahoo is like we're surrounded by nations

50
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 2: that want to kill us. They're saying, like as the

51
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 2: nations you're saying like want this, we're telling you we

52
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 2: can guarantee peace. Just it's just very clear, like just

53
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 2: everything stop stop.

54
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, please stop killing innocent people. Yeah, escalation to de

55
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,639
Speaker 1: escalate is a theory that only makes sense if your

56
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: end game is just and then they do whatever we

57
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: tell them to do.

58
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 2: Right, it'll deescalate because we've overwhelmed you with our escalation.

59
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:17,119
Speaker 1: Yeah. The reporting of the Mythile attack has been revelatory

60
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: in the sense that CNN is able to notice when

61
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: a missile attack is on a civilian target and seems

62
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,839
Speaker 1: designed to inflict the maximum loss of innocent life, which

63
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: is how they're describing this Mythile attack. They don't seem

64
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: capable of making that same deduction when it's happening in

65
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: any of the countries that Israel is attacking.

66
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 2: And it's also just generally like Americans don't want fucking

67
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 2: more war.

68
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: No, and.

69
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 2: The polling is so clear that arming Israel and allowing

70
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 2: them to run this campaign of like genocide and displacement

71
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 2: is not good. Like these aren't people with foreign policy

72
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 2: acts where they're just merely observing things as human beings

73
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 2: saying no, this is this is really, this is terrible,

74
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 2: Like this is not the direction of a world that

75
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 2: I want to be living in, alongside the many other

76
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 2: things that Americans don't want to be a part of

77
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: going forward in the future. But it's just so frustrating

78
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 2: again because you see all of these things that potentially

79
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 2: could add up to Donald Trump winning again when a

80
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 2: lot of these things seem pretty simple. It's just that, yeah,

81
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 2: you kind of have to go against the momentum of

82
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 2: the military industrial complex and like lobbying on behalf of

83
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 2: Israel to be able to achieve that. But that's where

84
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 2: you're looking for something that is inspirational in terms of leadership.

85
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's not easy, but it is simple, Like

86
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: that Yeah, that's what we need to be done in

87
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: this case.

88
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 2: Sure, and yeah, exactly and easy is definitely a subjective thing,

89
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 2: especially for lifelong politicians who live in a world where

90
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 2: you can get phone calls from people and you're like,

91
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,679
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, I think I shouldn't I shouldn't

92
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 2: support this bill or shouldn't do this thing, But holy shit,

93
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 2: we need some kind of actual, lasting, permanent ceasefire at

94
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: a minimum, without just being tethered to, you know, like

95
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 2: what what Israel is doing and inevitably having to be

96
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 2: drawn into some larger conflict that is going to cause

97
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 2: an even increased amount of innocent people being killed. So yeah,

98
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 2: it's right there, it's right there. For the Harris Waltz campaign, please,

99
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 2: you may be surprised at what happens if you do

100
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 2: the thing that you know over three quarters of your

101
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 2: your voting base is asking for.

102
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, but given the tenor of the Western mainstream media,

103
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: it feels like that outcome has become less likely to write.

104
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 2: And I think that's why so disorienting, and I've said

105
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 2: this so many times for people who they observe something,

106
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 2: they read something, Oh that's awful, But then like the

107
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 2: tone of the media is like, yeah, I don't know, man,

108
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 2: like they they got to defend themselves. And Joe Byron,

109
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 2: Joe Byron's down for that, so and onto our next

110
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: story kind of a thing. But yeah, this is how

111
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: we see how you know, mass media is just essentially

112
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 2: a larger tool of the larger imperialistic project. But yeah, yeah,

113
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 2: let's see some kind of diplomatic action. Let's see some

114
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 2: use of leverage. It's right there, really low hanging fruit.

115
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 2: All right.

116
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 1: Speaking of lifelong politicians, Jimmy Carter is old as hell today.

117
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: He just turned one hundred, which is the longest a

118
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: US president has ever lived. He's previously said that he

119
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: wants Joe Biden to eulogize him at his eventual state funeral,

120
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: but it does seem possible that Carter will outlive Biden

121
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: at this storm, Like who knows. Carter has been in

122
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: hospice for nineteen months, and his grandson Jason Carter, has

123
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: said that the foreign presents quote eager to cast his

124
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: ballot for Kamala Harris in a Guardian article one hundred

125
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: years old.

126
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 2: For some reason, they like his son Vince Carter.

127
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: My son Vince Carter has said, but also incredible longevity.

128
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

129
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: He has previously attributed his longevity to his wife Rosalind Carter,

130
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: but she passed away in twenty twenty three before we

131
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: had a chance to you know, extract her blood and

132
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: synthesize so as to give us all whatever. Jimmy Carter's

133
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: death defying powers of the peanuts.

134
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 2: Man, it's the peanuts. Yeah, it's all about peanuts. Yeah,

135
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 2: I mean this has been there's so many I mean, like, yeah,

136
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 2: happy Birthday to Jimmy Carter, and then like you know

137
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 2: on Monday, yea to Kimbe Matumbo and Pete Rose passing away.

138
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 2: There's just a lot of and then John Amos also today.

139
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: You know, there's a lot of life and death. It's

140
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 2: always happening around us. But yeah, Jimmy Carter one, well,

141
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 2: one hundred years old.

142
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter, as one account online at History Calendar pointed out,

143
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter is now too old to play with legos

144
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: because legos ages listed four to ninety nine.

145
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 2: So could you imagine you put legos in front of him.

146
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 2: He's like, what are these their legos?

147
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: Jimmy dies right away choked on a lego.

148
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 2: He thought it was gum yeah, all right, And.

149
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: Ted Cruz is back in the news. So every once

150
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: in a while I get a little news flash that

151
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: Ted Cruz his race is getting closer and closer to

152
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: the point that he is now. So he was like

153
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: he I think won his first race by like sixteen

154
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: points back in twenty twelve, and then in twenty eighteen

155
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: against Beto O'Rourke it was like a two point six

156
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: point win. He's now up by one percentage point in

157
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: his race against Colin Allred, a Democrat. Yeah, in Texas

158
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: in a state wide election.

159
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 2: I think the ones that have him up the highest

160
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 2: is like at most three points and the closest one

161
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 2: percent like one point, so that is that is very

162
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 2: close for a Texas race. But again, I think a

163
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 2: lot of people who are you know, Democrats in Texas

164
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 2: always point to the fact that it's like, no, no, the

165
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 2: voter suppression is just really good here. That's that's why

166
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 2: it seems solidly right. It's not that these people don't

167
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: exist that are progressive or liberal whatever, it's just that

168
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 2: the voter suppression is real good. And we've heard people

169
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 2: like Ken Paxton, you know, the Attorney General, brag about

170
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 2: how He's like, yeah, man, I basically like like caused

171
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,839
Speaker 2: so much chaos in Houston that I'm pretty sure that's

172
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 2: how Trump was able to win. So yeah, this is

173
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 2: now he's doing the thing that you know you're in

174
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 2: trouble when suddenly, like a month and a few days

175
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 2: out from election, like, I'm actually really bi partisan now

176
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 2: me right?

177
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: Yea Cruz bipartisan. Yeah, he's attempting to rebrank. He's trying

178
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: the rebrand, and he saw what it did for Mark Zuckerberg,

179
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: and he's like, maybe I just like getting Look did

180
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: you see.

181
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 2: That tweet about Mark Zuckerberg talking about how you thought

182
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 2: like wearable glasses or like the next future tech? And

183
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 2: someone quote tweeted and it was like, damn, how when

184
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 2: did Donnis get so old? Breaks kid? Yeah, so stupid?

185
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 2: What's that floppy? He went floppy hair with the chains.

186
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 2: I'm still really unsettled by.

187
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: He rebranded as like gen Z even though he's a

188
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: forty something person.

189
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 2: I think he's forty.

190
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: But yeah, so Ted Cruz came out and said, uh

191
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: that he's always passing bipartisan legislation and the mainstream media

192
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: just doesn't report on it. A very sweaty pivot by him.

193
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 2: You were always by partisan?

194
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's always been bipartisan.

195
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 2: He ranked as a bipartisan. What's your biparty? Yeah, you

196
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: must be like top five bipartisans.

197
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: So, uh yeah. The Lugar Center and George Shown University

198
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 1: m the Court School of Public Policy actually really least

199
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,719
Speaker 1: to report in May ranking senators by how bipartisan their

200
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: vote were in the most recent session of contr Yeah,

201
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,319
Speaker 1: so he is bottom ten actually out of ninety eight

202
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: senators on the list, he ranked eighty ninth. Wow, which

203
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 1: he's actually become less bipartisan recently because on the previous

204
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: list he ranked eighty fifth. But he's always down there

205
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:23,559
Speaker 1: at the bottom.

206
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 2: Yeah. Political I think was initially reporting this story and

207
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 2: like they even asked like, oh, so, like if you're

208
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 2: so by, then why did you vote against that horrific

209
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 2: bipartisan border bill, which many people were like Jesus Christ,

210
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 2: Joe Biden is laying down and basically putting in a

211
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 2: bill that was written by like James Lankford, who was

212
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 2: like this, no, this is it, bro, like he we

213
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 2: got the concessions we want. And then because Trump was

214
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 2: sort of like, no, I need to be able to

215
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 2: say that the border is a mess. So no, none

216
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 2: of you fucking vote for this, even the ones that care,

217
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 2: and it is our wish list, so cruises risk. Response

218
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 2: to that, I was like, so what happened with that bill?

219
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 2: Which was bipartisan quote? The bill was an absolutely terrible bill.

220
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 2: It was a Chuck Schumer bill that was designed to

221
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 2: make the border crisis worse. It was such a bad

222
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 2: bill that any Republican reading it said, this is terrible

223
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 2: and I can't support it, except for one of the

224
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 2: most right wing senators when it comes to immigration, who

225
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 2: was like, yeah, this is good. Good for me. Good here,

226
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 2: all right, man, keep keep doing your thing.

227
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 1: I just can't wait to see his new haircut. It's

228
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: going to be dope. He's going to get like, throw.

229
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 2: The beard out. Does he have the beard still? He

230
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 2: might do that.

231
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: I think he with him and walk in it.

232
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 2: At the RNC he did have his little beard going,

233
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 2: so maybe he maybe it'll be like full on Confederate

234
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 2: mutton chops for the election.

235
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,439
Speaker 1: This bill is giving Chuck Schumer just how he should

236
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: have said it. All right, let's take a quick break,

237
00:12:48,600 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: we'll be right back, and we're back, And so Taco

238
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:07,079
Speaker 1: Bell is taking a couple of new items, the Kalian

239
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 1: Calientage Cantina chicken burrito. You were insane the Calienteina chicken burrito,

240
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 1: and I was riffresc gostring ah. So just overall, how

241
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 1: do we feel about like, I mean, personally, we all

242
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: have our like Taco Bell orders, you know, yeah, yeah,

243
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 1: I'm probably not coming up off of the Cheesygordida crunch,

244
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: but what what is your.

245
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 2: I look at it as like an artist that I

246
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 2: love when they start doing new kinds of genre stuff

247
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 2: to bring in more fans into them, Like, yeah, I'm

248
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 2: good with expanding the imprint of the brand, but at

249
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 2: the end of the day, I am bro I only

250
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 2: eat like three things at Taco Bell and I will.

251
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 2: I don't know why even when I see them like

252
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 2: that looks good to my mouth eyes as I look

253
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 2: at it. But then you get me to a Taco Bell,

254
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 2: it's I'm always gonna drink bah bah blah. I'm always

255
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 2: gonna get some kind either soft Taco supreme or have

256
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 2: like a Mexi melt reverse engineered and like a chicken

257
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 2: spicy spicy chicken casey dea. That's it. I don't need

258
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 2: anything else. I don't eat anything else. So that's why

259
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 2: party was like, am I bad because I'm I don't

260
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 2: even I'm not even interested or I'm just so.

261
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: It also appears to have lettuce in it, which I

262
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: am not a I cannot uh deal with lettuce in

263
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: my burrito personally. Really, Yeah, I don't. I don't fuck

264
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: with it. Yeah, I mean, I don't mind.

265
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 2: And again, my soft Taco Supreme has gotta lettuce in it,

266
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: you know. And even like the fucking Jack in the

267
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 2: box deep fried ones where you get like these be

268
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 2: like two for.

269
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: A buck, Yeah, those do? They have like warm, wet

270
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: lettuce and I love.

271
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

272
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah.

273
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 2: I think someone tweeted some but I was like, yeah,

274
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 2: it's technically a vegetable because it has that lettuce.

275
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 1: In it in terms of salad.

276
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the logic, guys. I guess of all the things,

277
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 2: I would be open to a different drink, Like I

278
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 2: love Baha Fresh, but I like I like sweet drinks generally.

279
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 2: I'm they say Baha Fresh, Well.

280
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: Yeah you do Baha Fresh, And you think it hasn't

281
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 1: gotten any worse.

282
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 2: No, no, not at all. They've actually gotten better over

283
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 2: the years. But yeah, I was frescas. That looks I'll

284
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 2: I'll take a punt on that.

285
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: How fresca? Do we think these? A?

286
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 2: That's the that's the real thing, because like if you

287
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: go to real like TAKEETI or something like a real

288
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 2: taco stand or joint, like it went in like those

289
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 2: obviously like those big plastic jugs where you can see

290
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 2: the fruit in it, and you're like, I know it's

291
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 2: a lot of sugar, but I'll see pieces of fruit.

292
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 2: Is this going to just be a syrupy bag type

293
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,359
Speaker 2: thing that they're calling it? I don't know. That's yeah

294
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 2: with TBD TBD. But again, I don't go to Taco

295
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 2: Bell for fresh ingredients. I go for just terrible consistency.

296
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, TBD, Taco Bell do it. I don't know why

297
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: they left the ie off.

298
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 2: I don't know.

299
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: I you can come up with a D. Damnit it did?

300
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 2: Is stuck stick the landing there, But that's all right.

301
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: They're also bringing back the cheese It crunch Trap Supreme,

302
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: this time with an exciting twist to cheese it to

303
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: cheese it? Wait, what do you mean what the first

00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,560

00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: little goop shovel, which we all need when we're eating

327
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:31,640
Speaker 1: taco bell.

328
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:32,639
Speaker 2: Yeah.

329
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: Not to be confused with the three thousand dollars diamond

330
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: encrusted goop shovel that Gwyneth Paltrow sells on goog All right,

331
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 1: and finally, Netflix cancelations recently spiked thanks to Trump supporters

332
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:54,199
Speaker 1: of the Mega Action, or maybe not so this is

333
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: kind of being widely reported that Netflix cancelation spiked in

334
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,719
Speaker 1: Lie after Netflix co founder Read Hastings endorsed Kamala Harris

335
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: and donated seven million dollars to her campaign. Cancelations dearly

336
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: tripled in the month of July.

337
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: But it wasn't directly to her campaign, right, It was

338
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,199
Speaker 2: to like another It was like a Republican accountability like

339
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: indirect hit. But I think they're like, what Republican account

340
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 2: you're her? But again I get it. It's the money

341
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 2: still against the same person, essentially Bloomberg.

342
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 1: The New York Post Fox business all came through with

343
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: the Netflix cancelation spiked after Reid Hastings donated to Kamala Harris.

344
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: Netflix cancelations nearly tripled after co founder Read Hastings endorsed

345
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, so he stepped down as a Netflix CEO

346
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three, and also he donated seven million

347
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 1: dollars not to Harris's campaign directly, but to the Republican

348
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: Accountability Pack. But yes, news of the donations inspired calls

349
00:18:55,840 --> 00:19:00,160
Speaker 1: for a boycott at the time, and Netflix was previously

350
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: trying to keep his politics quiet, probably because of stuff

351
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 1: like this. However, like people who actually follow Netflix subscription

352
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: numbers are like. That was also when they announced that

353
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: they were phasing out the cheapest, non ad supported tier,

354
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: like the Basic Plan, right, which so they were like,

355
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 1: we expected a huge spike in cancelations at that time.

356
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 1: This is just basically a made up story to make

357
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: it seem like mega alive and well and powerful. Yeah,

358
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 1: they're coming for your ass. Netflix.

359
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 2: This is every time they love to be like, dude,

360
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 2: don't piss off the Remember what they did to Volvo,

361
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 2: Remember what they did to cure eg, Remember what they

362
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 2: did to what and put to car heart. They were

363
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 2: like full car heart and all this.

364
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, and all those businesses promptly went out of business

365
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 1: and no longer exist.

366
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean I look at my car and I go, God,

367
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 2: thank god I have that, because they don't have it.

368
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 2: They don't they're not making it anymore because they have

369
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 2: business so hard.

370
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 1: Nike socks, they don't even sell Nike socks. Anymore. They

371
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: just sell the socks with the hole where the Nike

372
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: logo used to be from where het out the Nike logo.

373
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 2: And Nike is not doing well. But that's that's for

374
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 2: a myriad of other reasons that have nothing to do

375
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 2: with maga outrage about Colin Kaepernick. But it is funny

376
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:26,199
Speaker 2: how like you get these like conservative outlets being like,

377
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 2: all right, man, what are we doing? The maga consumer

378
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:34,120
Speaker 2: myth article, let's go Netflix cancelations spike. Netflix cancelations nearly

379
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 2: tripled netflix highest day of cancelations this year, even though

380
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 2: like Netflix is preparing their own investors to be like, look, bro,

381
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 2: this am I get a little dodgy when we have

382
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 2: to raise the prices. But it's happening because line must

383
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 2: go up.

384
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the new CEO gets to come in and

385
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: be like, fucking read ah, yeah he's serious, man.

386
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 2: What he did. Look what he did to me.

387
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 1: Guys, we got rid of him, so don't worry about that.

388
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 1: That's not a going forward problem. That problems in the

389
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,160
Speaker 1: rear view. Yeah, the review but yeah, all those articles

390
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: with the headline being like the mega consumer half spoken, uh,

391
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,120
Speaker 1: then admit in the body of the text that it's

392
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 1: really just because Netflix shot themselves on the foot by

393
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 1: discontinuing their most affordable option. They just can't, you know,

394
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: they don't put on the headline.

395
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, rather than the headline being Netflix cancelation spike after

396
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 2: discontinuing their most affordable option. Uh, they're like, nah, man,

397
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 2: say it's because they don't like, uh, I don't know

398
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 2: whatever the news they don't arrive. Yeah, that shows a trip.

399
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 1: Oh did you finish behind it?
