These are some of our favorite segments 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:14,880 Speaker 1: from this week, all edited together into one NonStop infotainment 4 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:22,440 Speaker 1: laugh stravaganza. Uh yeah, So, without further ado, here is 5 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: the Weekly Zeitgeist. Mona. We do like to ask our guest, 6 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: what is something from your search history? I don't this 7 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,639 Speaker 1: might be really filthy, but I was looking up soaking. 8 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 1: Have y'all talked about soaking yet? No, let's talk about 9 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: little else. To be honest, hold on, don't play around. 10 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,599 Speaker 1: We've never heard of it. Okay, no, what is it? 11 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: What is this technique? Kind of I'm you're actually correct, 12 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: my man. So I I was talking to someone who 13 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 1: was ex Mormon, and she was telling me about soaking 14 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: and my understanding and you can look up, we can 15 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: look at more and soaking. Because some people believe that 16 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: sex is the in and out of the penis in 17 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:22,919 Speaker 1: the person. So some people, to stay holy and good 18 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: with Jesus and all the people upstairs, just put the 19 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: penis in and let it soak, let it ride like 20 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: a fucking tea bag, like a like, let's just sleeping 21 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: and the woman's soaking. Soaking Oh yeah, we're up on 22 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 1: the jump in on soaking. Do you know about the 23 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: jump pumping? Nope? Or someone jumps on the bed so 24 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: it moves, but it's not the thrusting. Yeah, what's this? 25 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: Is there a sin of the jump pumper, like as 26 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: like a pornographer or something like a facilitator of sin, 27 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Yeah, people don't think that 28 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: deep because at the end of the day, they're like, 29 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: we're just trying to literally get it in and leave 30 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: it in. Guys, just let go. You're you know, we're 31 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: all animals.

Just live your fucking life. 33 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: If you're already soaking, you're doing sex, right. This is yeah, 34 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: that's what I the whole time, that for the last 35 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,399 Speaker 1: three weeks when we couldn't stop stop talking about it. 36 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: It's just true. You know, the jig is up. Jig 37 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: is up.

He's not, you know, 51 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: just getting getting it awful. It's it's kind of the 52 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: opinion that if you're just really bad at sex, then 53 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: you aren't technically having sex. It's like, is the is 54 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: the philosophy? There?

Yeah, it's it's I mean, I think it's 87 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: also just like one of these things now to where 88 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: it's just easy to make, so like whenever we see it. 89 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: I feel like my like, my love of fries starts 90 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: from being a kid when I'm like, oh, yes, fries, 91 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: and I'm like I'll just eat fries with anything.

I like them. 100 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: I like them. I think they're usually uh, they're usually 101 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: also put on as like a consolation, where like the 102 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: sandwich can be pretty bad, but they're like, well, guess what, 103 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna give you way too many fries, so you 104 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: have to feel like this whole adventure is worth it. 105 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 1: I think that's also a thing that annoys me, where 106 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: you're like, no, this is just more not good fries 107 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: that sucks.

Yes, the 109 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: sandwich can suck, but we've nailed fries and give them 110 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: away too many of them, and you are a Taco 111 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: Bell fan enthusiasm and stand. You know that tracks like 112 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: that's the one thing that I think people complain about 113 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,679 Speaker 1: when it comes to Taco Bell. The one end only 114 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: thing that they're allowed to complain about is that they 115 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: don't have fries. Not the immediate rhea, not that, don't 116 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: complain that, but yeah, uh, did you guys try that 117 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: chicken sandwich taco thing that they just made. It was 118 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: so good, it was so it was so good, I 119 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: guess say it was taco. It was like it was 120 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: just I don't even it was just a piece of 121 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: fried chicken in like a soft bread that you know, 122 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,679 Speaker 1: it was like scientifically made soft by the greatest minds 123 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: in America some yeah, with some orange Mayo goop and 124 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: it was incredible. Yeah, I thought you were talking about 125 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: the taco bell creation. That was like the it the 126 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: bun was the chicken. Wasn't that a thing where they 127 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: had a taco shell that is made of chicken that 128 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: I couldn't bring myself to think about trying. But they're 129 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: also the chicken chips too that they just cut into triangles, 130 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: like flattened out triangles. That was yeah, that you know 131 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: I could have. I could not for me. Yeah, I 132 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: love I love I love how weird they go. I 133 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: love how they always I don't know, I feel like 134 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: I eat and I'm like, yes, this was actually good. 135 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: This was actually good. All right, let's talk about Rhonda 136 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 1: Santis Greg Abbott. The conservative ship bag off that we 137 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: have been waiting for continues just going toe to toe 138 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: on who can be the shittiest governor in America. And 139 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: Ron is making some serious moves. Yeah, he's making kissy 140 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,719 Speaker 1: face at the anti vax crowd because he's letting people know. 141 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: You know, over the weekend he announced that I want 142 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:56,239 Speaker 1: to make this place haven for unvaccinated cops and first responders. 143 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: I want them to know that Florida is a place 144 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: that will accept them and accept them with arms wide COVID. 145 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: And this dude just listen to his plan. He announces 146 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,839 Speaker 1: like his his really awesome incentive plan to bring anti 147 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: VAXs to Florida, and how cool he is. Just well, first, 148 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 1: I think it's hard to point out on a scientific basis, 149 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: most of those first responders have had COVID and have recovered, 150 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: so they have strong protection. Uh. And so I think 151 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: that influences their decision on a lot of this that 152 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: they have already had it and recovered. Uh. And so 153 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: they're not they're making no accommodations for that. They're still 154 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 1: pretending like that doesn't even exist. Uh. And so that's 155 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: really really troubling when you see that. But I can 156 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: tell you Maria and Florida, not only are we gonna 157 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: want to protect the law enforcement and all the jobs, 158 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: we're actually actively working to recruit out of state law 159 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: enforcement because we do have needs and our police and 160 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: our sheriff's departments. So in the next legislative session, I'm 161 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: gonna hopefully sign legislation that gives a five thousand dollar bonus. 162 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: Then he out of state law enforcement that relocates and Florida, 163 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: So NYPD, Minneapolis, Seattle. If you're not being treated well, 164 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: we'll treat you better here.

I mean 182 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: even he's had the vaccine, right, And it's this like 183 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: really just in your face double speak that no one 184 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: in the base is willing to confront.

It's purple. And also you know, the governor 248 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: there has been trying to do the best by the 249 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: people while you also have a challenger who comes in 250 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: and is trying to do the walk the fine line 251 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: of like being maga. But because it's not a full 252 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: blown red state, like you gotta kind of be like, 253 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't agree with Steve Bannon. I just 254 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: like some of his ideas type ship. And you know, 255 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: messaging can like make or break a campaign, and youn 256 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: can who is running against Terry mccaulliffe, he may have 257 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: found a winning message, you know, as I said, to 258 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: win over especially the even keeled independence in the suburbs. 259 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: As we notice that something the GOP is very concerned 260 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: about is that we don't want to turn off independence 261 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: in the suburbs because you know, they're concerned parents who 262 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: are deeply invested in their children's futures, and they're not 263 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: always into just full blown racism and dog whistling. So 264 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: when they hear about this mother's story and how she 265 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: was just absolutely just destroyed by the policies of Terry mccauliffe, 266 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: I have a feeling that people are going to be 267 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: voting young and so I just want to play this 268 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: clip just so you can understand and just when you're 269 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: listening to this woman speak, imagine someone who claims to 270 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: have had an immaculate conception with the ghost of Stonewall Jackson. 271 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: That's kind of her vibe. As a parent, it's tough 272 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: to catch everything. So when my son showed me his 273 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: reading assignment, my heart sunk. It was some of the 274 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:19,479 Speaker 1: most explicit material you can imagine. I met with lawmakers. 275 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: They couldn't believe what I was showing them or faces 276 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: turned bright red with embarrassment. They passed bills requiring schools 277 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: to notify parents when explicit content was assigned. It was 278 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: bi partisan. It gave parents a say, the option to 279 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: choose an alternative for my children. I was so grateful, 280 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: but then Governor Terry mcculloff vetoed it twice. He doesn't 281 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: think parents should have a say. He said that he 282 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: shut us out, Glenn yuncan he listens, he understands parents matter. 283 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: Join me in voting for Glenn.

No no, no, no, no, no, no no no. 330 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: I think that's a vague thing that I think if 331 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: most people learned learned what the this woman was speaking 332 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,679 Speaker 1: about them, like what the fun like, Okay, most people 333 00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: if they took that class, I had to read that book, 334 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: and people don't have nightmares. It's funny because people look 335 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: checked up on her son. He's he's fine. He had 336 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 1: a wedding announcement in the New York Times a couple 337 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: of years ago, so I think he's gotten over his 338 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: Tony Morrison induced nightmares. That's a very specific type of 339 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: person who has a wedding announcement in the New York Times. Too. 340 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: He's yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, hell yeah, that is amazing, 341 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: And what why is this such an important race? Like 342 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: just catch me up on why I should have been 343 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: paying attention to this. I think a lot of people 344 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: look at it, you know, as a somewhat bell Weather 345 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: kind of state, but more than that, like a serious 346 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: sort of gauge of what people think of the parties, 347 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: given Biden's approval ratings and things that are happening, to 348 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,959 Speaker 1: see if people are going to back a Democrat or 349 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: if they start to see some support slipped towards Republicans. 350 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: It's just it's just the thing to just for people 351 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: for wants to try and sweat over. You know, some 352 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 1: people argue it's like not as important, but this is 353 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: this is like the horse racification of politics. So like 354 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: every single like, no, this one man, you gotta pay 355 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: attention because I was saying before the recall with Gavin Newsom, 356 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: isn't really an accurate depiction of what's happening in the 357 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 1: state or like in the national politics. Like that was 358 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: a group of Republicans trying to sort of game the 359 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: system of like recalling a governor to try and get 360 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: someone else in. More so than like what do the 361 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: people think of Democrats and Republicans at this moment? Yeah, 362 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean, just like from a narrative standpoint in the 363 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: mainstream media, it seems like the two major narratives that 364 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: are like Biden's approval is like in the shitter, and 365 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: but like the Republicans are still fucked. So it's like 366 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: almost like so this gives them an opportunity to be 367 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 1: like one is less fucked than the other one. I guess, yeah, 368 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 1: Or maybe it's like do people care that there's nothing 369 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: on the agenda actually being accomplished, so that's still warrant support. 370 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: I don't know, Like, and this is a very strange moment. 371 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: It's like most people who are like living in the 372 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: harsh reality of America, like things need to happen. And 373 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: then on the hill, it's like I don't know, should 374 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: we tax billionaires? Is that popular? I mean, it's certainly 375 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: not popular with my donors. But from that perspective, like 376 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: would it be better if a Republican one so that 377 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: the Democrats, like I got scared enough to actually everything 378 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: is so reactionary. I don't either way, Like I'm like 379 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: I don't have much confidence in this just general political 380 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 1: system we have in this country to begin with. So 381 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: it's like, I I don't know, sure, maybe, but I 382 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: could also see them being like, see, this is why 383 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,719 Speaker 1: we went too far left. You know, there's always that, 384 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: there's always that logic too. Well, I will withhold my 385 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: donation to young can for now. All right, let's take 386 00:22:49,960 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 1: a quick break. We'll be right back, and we're back. 387 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:07,120 Speaker 1: And the second pipe dream of America, the one that's 388 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: in second place between giving dogs free guns, is the 389 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: idea that one day we might be able to tax 390 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: the rich and use that money to help the rest 391 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: of the country. And it's actually it's actually being discussed 392 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 1: right now. How's that It's a huge and no one, 393 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: no one's fucking on board with anything, these democrats. So 394 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: Joe Mansion recently made it clear that he is just 395 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 1: he's hearing about this new thing is like taxing billionaires. 396 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: He's like, I got concerns about that. I don't know. 397 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: I don't know about targeting people, as he said, because 398 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: it's the seven hundred wealthiest individuals in the country. I 399 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: just wonder his actual quote around it, because he's OMG, 400 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: very here quote. I don't like it. I don't like 401 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 1: the connotation that we're targeting different people. That's a very 402 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: interesting statement. And you know, we have Kirsten Cinema who 403 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 1: has told I think we discussed lobbyists out loud to 404 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: their face straight up, I will. I'm not interested in 405 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: raising taxes on corporations and things like that. But there 406 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 1: seems to be some movement because Senators Widen, Warren and 407 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: King have introduced two bills to help pay for a 408 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 1: potentially transformational agenda. And I say potentially because like anything 409 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 1: that starts out as a bill being introduced, can be 410 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: completely stripped away down to absolute nothing, or it'll get 411 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 1: held up in courts where they will have to redefine 412 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 1: things like income or accountants can just find even better loopholes. 413 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: But putting that aside, let's pretend that, for this moment 414 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,400 Speaker 1: of positivity, that this could potentially go through the way 415 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 1: it is. So, the first bill is aimed at taxing 416 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: the wealthiest companies, who you know, they've been afforded the 417 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: luxury of an absolutely nonsense tax code that allows them 418 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: to basically pay nothing on their profit. It's so what 419 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 1: this bill specifically would do would apply to companies that 420 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: report more. Again, so before you start grasping your small 421 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: business pearls. We're talking about companies who have been generating 422 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 1: more than a billion dollars in profits each year. This 423 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: is who we're talking about, the super wealthy companies, and 424 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: this is over a three year period, and would impose 425 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: and across the board fifteen percent tax right on those profits. Now, 426 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: when you consider things like Amazon, how they effectively pay 427 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 1: less than five percent on their profits through all the 428 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 1: legal fucker like tax trickery, going to fient I think 429 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: would be pretty good place to start. And so that's 430 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: sort of the first dimension is to go after companies. 431 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: The second is to go at individual earners. And this 432 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 1: is where Joe Mansion doesn't like the idea of just 433 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: singling people out, like the seven hundred wealthiest fucking Americans 434 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 1: in the country. Hurt I know, and and listeners, and 435 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 1: I'm sure you, I'm sure all the listeners know someone 436 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 1: like this. We all have a friend who makes more 437 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 1: than a hundred million dollars per year and they have 438 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: more than one billion dollars in assets for three straight years. 439 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: We get that. We're like, dude, that's my neighbor. Relax on, 440 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 1: relax on this guy. So this thing would essentially be like, look, 441 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: this is who need who we really need to make 442 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: sure are paying the fucking taxes. It would require them 443 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: to give the I R. S a detailed account of 444 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: how much of the assets they own or gain lost 445 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: each year. It's called mark to market apparently in Lingo terms. 446 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 1: So like the way that we we talked before about 447 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: how they avoid is that it's a lot of their 448 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 1: money is tied up in stocks, right, and so just 449 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: like keep it in the stock markets and in real estate, 450 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 1: and then they don't have to pay taxes like the 451 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 1: rest of us. And but they can borrow against the 452 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: fact that they have three hundred billion dollars, you know, 453 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: like that that they'll still get any loan at the 454 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: best possible rate, which enables them to just have basically 455 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: unlimited money. Isn't that the That's the funniest excuse I've 456 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: ever heard, Like, I can't be paying all my money 457 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: is tied up in stocks. I don't know what I'm 458 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: gonna do. That's like like I can't pay taxes. All 459 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 1: my money's in my pocket. What do you want me 460 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: to get it out there? I didn't even use it. 461 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 1: Someone took all my money and put it in stocks. 462 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: I don't know how I'll ever, I don't know what 463 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do, because you're not paying capital gains until 464 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 1: they're realized, right until you sell your stocks or you 465 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 1: sell your real estate. That's when capital gains come in. 466 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: So again, like you're saying, Jack, you need some some 467 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: fun money, some funny, fun fun money to go fucking 468 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: p jet around and funk the earth over and spend 469 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: you know, your your luxurious lifestyle. You just take loans 470 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: out against your already massive wealth, and then now you 471 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 1: can take the interest payments that you from that loan 472 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: to offset any other income taxes that you would have. 473 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: So it's just a fucking it's a beautiful setup. And 474 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: the way the really the easy way to sort of 475 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 1: put this into perspective is right because they're able to 476 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: do these things like say, I parked my money in 477 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 1: the stock market so I don't have to pay anybody 478 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: fucking anything, and it just chills there. For example, in eighteen, 479 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 1: the top twenty five individual earners in the United States 480 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 1: were over worth over one trillion dollars. It would take 481 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: over fourteen million just wage earning Americans. Not to say 482 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: that you're on hourly wages, but people who aren't just 483 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: like hyper wealthy fourteen million over fourteen million, just normal 484 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: people to create that wealth, to to get to one 485 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: point one trillion dollars.

So when 572 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 1: like the subject of taxation comes up, we're like our 573 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: brain just turns off. We're just like fuck like or 574 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: we're also like more empathetic to other people who have 575 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,240 Speaker 1: to pay taxes, Like paying taxes is such an awful 576 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,240 Speaker 1: thing that we're just like, yeah, they don't, don't tax 577 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: them more like that's that's mean taxing tax is bad, 578 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: you know, like because it doesn't make sense other than 579 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: just that turbo taxes, like lobbying them.

Like that's you know, I 584 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: think there's like psychological conveniences at work in a lot 585 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,320 Speaker 1: of this ship that they do that kind of keeps 586 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: the system in place. That's one thing that's so weird 587 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 1: with to figure out where you're like, oh, I if 588 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 1: I don't work, I'll die. I'll start and then I'll that.

And then they 592 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: gotta go, we know, we gotta have taxes. So they've 593 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 1: they've managed to convince people, Okay, we need taxes. Who 594 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: should we get it from the people with money or 595 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: the people without it? And they've actually convinced people like, no, 596 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: the people without it should pay, not the people. I'm 597 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,439 Speaker 1: a job creator. Yeah, let me take it from you. 598 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: Like what how how do we not take it from 599 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: the rich guy? What do we do it?

Serious about that? Don't and don't think 604 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,880 Speaker 1: of it it being a proportion of my overall wealth 605 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,400 Speaker 1: either just a million dollars objectively as a numbers too high, 606 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: stupid not doing it all right.

It's central thesis 610 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: is that January six was a false flag. You know, 611 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:19,359 Speaker 1: if it was a false flag, they'd probably looted from right. 612 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: It's like, I'll just kind of go through, Uh it's 613 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: so that people don't have to watch it, but it's 614 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: got like the it says the true story behind one six, 615 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: the War on Terror two point oh and the plot 616 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 1: against the people. They're at titles. Yeah, that is such 617 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,879 Speaker 1: a long title. It opens with like a militant drum 618 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 1: roll and says the domestic war on Terror is here. 619 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 1: It's coming after half of the country. And Carlson then 620 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: is heard saying the helicopters have left Afghanistan and now 621 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 1: they're landed here at home. And then a woman says 622 00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,320 Speaker 1: false flags have happened in this country, one of which 623 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:04,839 Speaker 1: may have been January six, and it's it ends with 624 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:08,839 Speaker 1: like the Battle Him of like the Civil war Battle Him.

Well, that's for brown people, 664 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: that's not for us. That's not for that I know exactly, 665 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: but that American you know what I mean, That's what 666 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: is the most infuriating aspect of just people on the 667 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 1: right with how they are they weaponize things that are 668 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:29,280 Speaker 1: actually being used against other people. It's just so frustrating 669 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: how they victimize themselves. So it does acknowledge like the 670 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: tools of oppression, but then they flip it, you know, 671 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:39,240 Speaker 1: and it's completely illogical. It's just like, it just bothers 672 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: me so much that they do that, and that not 673 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: only you said like Alexander was a grifter, but it's 674 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 1: so many of those people on that side are grifter. 675 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: It's like Tucker Carlson promoting and everybody at Fox News 676 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 1: promoting like anti Bax rhetoric while being vaccinated for the show, 677 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like that's like the the 678 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 1: evil aspect of it that just bothers me so much 679 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 1: because it's been showing that people don't care about hypocrisy 680 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:07,279 Speaker 1: when it comes to like campaigning and all of the 681 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 1: calling people out and stuff. People just don't care about hypocrisy. 682 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 1: It's not something that motivates them. And that's the thing 683 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 1: that they capitalize on because they know that. Yeah, it's 684 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: so so bothersome. It's also wild that this is going 685 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 1: to be sort of like loose change, a documentary, a 686 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: counter narrative about an event that happened almost entirely on 687 00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: live TV, Like, yeah, we we kind of got the 688 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: gist from the fact that there were cameras. They're everywhere, 689 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 1: and you know, but I think I think that initial 690 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: reaction that like, how can anyone take this seriously is 691 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:49,839 Speaker 1: similar to the initial idea that the Internet was going 692 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 1: to make people better at finding the truth rather than 693 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: just better at finding whatever truth they want to find, 694 00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:01,839 Speaker 1: because there's just there's an embarrasment of riches in terms 695 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,800 Speaker 1: of just you know, there's probably there's so much footage 696 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 1: taken by all of the people at that like who 697 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 1: were there on January six, and like, you know, cutting 698 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: all of that down into a convincing, like thirty minute 699 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: package of stuff happening that seems weird or doesn't look 700 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 1: quite right will be like super possible. What's really weird? Though, 701 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 1: It's like the argument that I found there were comedians 702 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: at that insurrection, by the way, there were comedians there, 703 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 1: and their arguments that I've seen was like and which 704 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,879 Speaker 1: other people have made as well, was but we were 705 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 1: like in the peaceful part, and it's like you being 706 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 1: like you being around a drum circle or whatever the 707 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 1: funk you think that is is does not negate the 708 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: fact that people rushed into the Capitol and then our 709 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 1: senators had to hide in bathrooms and ship because they 710 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 1: were afraid they were gonna get Like people were in 711 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:56,719 Speaker 1: full gear with zip ties and you being near like 712 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 1: playing hacky sack, which I don't you were, you know, 713 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 1: doesn't gave the fact that that actually happened and you 714 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 1: were there in a part of it.

But you need a fair trial where you 751 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 1: don't have ers who think anti black racism is bad, 752 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 1: because then that will bias them against an anti blackbody 753 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:12,800 Speaker 1: murdered somebody over. Yeah, the thing that is super infuriating 754 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 1: about the Carlson documentary is it seems like the thing 755 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,040 Speaker 1: what one of the thousands of things that's super infuriating 756 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: about this documentary is that Fox News is the arbiter 757 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:29,719 Speaker 1: of or the representation the main source of information for 758 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:34,319 Speaker 1: the group of people who have generated every panic, like 759 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 1: every moral panic over the last hundred hundred fifty years 760 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 1: in America. And they are claiming that America is in 761 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 1: the midst of a moral panic over white supremacy. So 762 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 1: they're taking the thing that they do like that this is, 763 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:51,280 Speaker 1: you know, what they've been doing since the beginning of time. 764 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 1: But they take the thing they're guilty of and put 765 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,399 Speaker 1: it claim that that's what the other side is doing. 766 00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 1: You know, So rather than being a deeply whites ms 767 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:04,319 Speaker 1: this country coming to terms with just the very tip 768 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,839 Speaker 1: of the iceberg of its white supremacy for the first time, 769 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:11,840 Speaker 1: they're claiming that it's a moral panic over a white supremacy. Guys, 770 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 1: I have to say with all of this, I am 771 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 1: not jiggy with it. So you know, I'm not jiggy 772 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 1: with any of this. And also I also like the 773 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 1: idea that Joe Biden tricked us all by using his 774 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 1: boundless energy and razor sharp mind to create a three 775 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:35,200 Speaker 1: dimensional kinetic illusion of white supremacist trying to murder the 776 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:40,880 Speaker 1: Vice president, Like, yeah, you have a false flag, and 777 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 1: like they keep showing Joe Biden in the it's like, yeah, 778 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:50,040 Speaker 1: he's that smart, Yeah he has so he's mostly it's 779 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 1: mostly dementia, but then he has these moments of lucidity 780 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 1: where he plans the false flag, where you just control 781 00:45:56,320 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 1: space and time to to his whims. All right, let's say, 782 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 1: got another quick break, and we'll come back and talk 783 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 1: about skeletons and other HALLOWEENI stuff, and we're back, and 784 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 1: there there's this mystery that's been making the rounds on 785 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,440 Speaker 1: shows like Last Podcast on the Left, which I really like. 786 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 1: Some true crime fans have been talking about this because 787 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 1: it was very creepy. A young, healthy family was found 788 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 1: dead on a hiking trail, appearing to have all just 789 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,240 Speaker 1: like you know, the the father was sitting down with 790 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 1: his daughter, their dog was like dead next to them. 791 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 1: The mother was just like you know, ten ft up 792 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:49,280 Speaker 1: the trail, and they you know, people were very concerned, scared, 793 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: didn't know what happened. They closed down a entire section 794 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 1: of this park because they thought it might be this 795 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,880 Speaker 1: poisonous algae bloom that was going through the river and 796 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,400 Speaker 1: that they might have taken a drink from that. And 797 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:07,439 Speaker 1: it turns out it was heat exhaustion and hyperthermia, which 798 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:09,840 Speaker 1: is something that we talked about a couple of weeks 799 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:14,640 Speaker 1: back at a hyper hyper thermia, not hypo. This is 800 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 1: already the most common, the deadliest form of like natural 801 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:25,799 Speaker 1: disaster in America is heat death or hyperthermia. More than 802 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 1: you know, floods, freezing, wildfires, like all the ones that 803 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:33,840 Speaker 1: we see in movies. It's this one that we almost 804 00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:39,840 Speaker 1: never see a movie like yeah, yeah, and we don't 805 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,880 Speaker 1: that movie death that like allows us to picture what 806 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 1: this is in our mind. And so when something like 807 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 1: this happens, we just like can't we don't have the 808 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 1: imaginative vocabulary to like make sense of it, and so 809 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:58,399 Speaker 1: everybody just treats it as if, like, you know, it's 810 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:02,400 Speaker 1: aliens or you know, they were talking about poisonous gas 811 00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: coming out of a nearby caves, and it was it 812 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,640 Speaker 1: was a heat death, which is already you know, one 813 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:14,400 Speaker 1: of the deadliest things in the country and only getting 814 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:16,800 Speaker 1: more so. And the reason that the police were baffled 815 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 1: is because this this isn't common or hasn't been to 816 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,920 Speaker 1: this point in history to have like multiple people at 817 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:28,359 Speaker 1: the same time, at the same moment basically died from 818 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 1: the same heat heat death. But that's because things are 819 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 1: just getting worse, you know, because of climate change. Yeah, 820 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,480 Speaker 1: and I think just not knowing. I think also as 821 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 1: people were not used to realizing what we could be 822 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 1: putting our bodies through too. Like I remember in the summer, 823 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:48,400 Speaker 1: like I took a couple of hikes and I carried 824 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:52,920 Speaker 1: way less water than I should have, like way way 825 00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,920 Speaker 1: I was under I just did not hydrate properly. I 826 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 1: wasn't even thinking about it, and part of me was like, man, 827 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 1: it's fucking hot, Like I'm in the direct sunlight. It's 828 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,480 Speaker 1: it's above like eighty it's like ninety degrees, Like this 829 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:07,879 Speaker 1: can't be like the best thing, like to be like 830 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 1: physically exerting myself indirect heat with no water, and like 831 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 1: I had to be like yo, I had to like 832 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 1: turn back and like you know, I need to have water. 833 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:18,799 Speaker 1: And I think just I think it's a thing that 834 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,480 Speaker 1: we don't consider that we could succumb to as well, 835 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 1: because I see it all the time, Like you see 836 00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:26,399 Speaker 1: because these people were like on a trail that used 837 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 1: to be shaded, right, but the forest fires basically completely. 838 00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 1: So it's like factors from climate change that are contributing 839 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,960 Speaker 1: to making the world more dangerous. But ye, shade and 840 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 1: that's what and yeah, and you think like, oh well funk, 841 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 1: I can be in the sun for a little bit. 842 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: But it's there's just a lot to consider. And I 843 00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 1: think it takes like moments at least for me to 844 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 1: act really stupidly to be like you can't go on 845 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:54,240 Speaker 1: a multi mile hike and direct sunlight in the summer 846 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 1: and like not do the minimum to take care of yourself. 847 00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 1: So I can imagine if you're not thinking like you're 848 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,319 Speaker 1: not sperience enough, you think like you can make it 849 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:05,839 Speaker 1: through this, like intense hike or whatever, and very very 850 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 1: hot conditions like bad. That very famous editor who edited 851 00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:14,719 Speaker 1: some Tarantino films, she just passed right away in Griffith Park. 852 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, just on a hot day. Just passed right away. 853 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,759 Speaker 1: And it was just like Jesus Christ. She was like 854 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:25,520 Speaker 1: healthy and and you know, living her life and just 855 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 1: passed right away on a hot, too hot day. Yeah. 856 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:33,800 Speaker 1: I think it's becoming more and more ronson canyon. Yeah, guys, 857 00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:37,840 Speaker 1: we got we gotta we gotta stop. We gotta stop doing. 858 00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:43,760 Speaker 1: We gotta stop hiking, hiking, or maybe stuff fucking polluting 859 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:48,359 Speaker 1: the world. Just knowing the conditions, you know, like if 860 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 1: you see that ship and it looks like you're going 861 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,879 Speaker 1: to be in direct sunlight in ninety plus degree weather, 862 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 1: not many people are built for that like that. Yeah, 863 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 1: like as much as you might think you are, and 864 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 1: there are plenty of people do work in those conditions, 865 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 1: but it's very very difficult. And as as temperatures only 866 00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:09,640 Speaker 1: go up, like you're gonna thinking like, oh, it's only today, 867 00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:13,799 Speaker 1: that's not normal, you know, like so don't consider that. 868 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:16,800 Speaker 1: Uh you know, I don't know. I just the second 869 00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 1: it feels too hot, like you gotta know, like that 870 00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 1: ship can kill you. I've been definitely reckless in the past, 871 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 1: and I'm going like stories like this or making me 872 00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 1: realize like anytime I'm going out there, you just you 873 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,279 Speaker 1: you now you take hikes with a wheelbarrow full of 874 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 1: water like in front of you. You're like like like 875 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:39,719 Speaker 1: all the moisture in my body with them, like a 876 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:43,239 Speaker 1: mile of walking, whether it's a hike or not, just 877 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 1: because through my armpits. You know, that's a pretty guy. 878 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 1: What if we took this solemn, respectful tone and just 879 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:54,919 Speaker 1: turned this into a peloton ad. I guess that's why 880 00:51:55,480 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 1: everyone should consider the low, low financing rates available for peloton. Mean, 881 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:02,880 Speaker 1: you really can't put a price on the life of 882 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 1: your child, but forty a month financing you could own 883 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 1: your peloton biking. Don't like biking, They offer the tread now, 884 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:18,080 Speaker 1: and let me tell you it doesn't kill kids anymore anymore, anymore, 885 00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:25,600 Speaker 1: anymore anymore. Started out. This is a story that I 886 00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 1: feel like the mainstream media kind of blood stream is 887 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,839 Speaker 1: very you know, is craving recently for some reason, and 888 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:38,479 Speaker 1: that is stories about lawsuits where somebody sues a food 889 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:42,360 Speaker 1: manufacturer for not having like the thing that they claim 890 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:48,280 Speaker 1: inside the real ship, you know. Subway tuna was one example, 891 00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 1: and now we have strawberry pop tarts. It's just, you know, 892 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 1: and they fall into some feel like histrionic lawsuits and 893 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:01,719 Speaker 1: others maybe and sometimes certain suits do read like, oh 894 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:05,560 Speaker 1: this person is actually mad. This is not real cookies 895 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:09,239 Speaker 1: and cookie crisp um. But in this instance, this is 896 00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,840 Speaker 1: all around the frosted strawberry pop tart I think is 897 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,959 Speaker 1: a staple thing you grew up eating, is a pop tart. 898 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 1: I barely ever toasted them. I just you would just 899 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:24,400 Speaker 1: take that foil pack. Oh yeah, I'm nasty because sometimes 900 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 1: you will get too hot or the bottom will get burnt, 901 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,120 Speaker 1: and then I'm like fucked. I'm not you know, burnt 902 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:31,880 Speaker 1: burnt pop tart. I remember. I think that's what happened 903 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 1: that a four You get that perfect toasted you know what. No, 904 00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 1: it was like typical like hardcore mom shit where my 905 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 1: mom made a pop tart and I was like, this 906 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:41,879 Speaker 1: is kind of burnt on the bottom. She's like, then 907 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:44,720 Speaker 1: you do it yourself, and I'm like, I will cut 908 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,719 Speaker 1: to me, never toasting them, because I don't respect the 909 00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:50,280 Speaker 1: effort my mother put in it's even trying to toast 910 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 1: a pop tart. But in this instance, in the Southern 911 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 1: District of Illinois, plaintiff Anita Harris quote alleges that Kellogg's 912 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,239 Speaker 1: claims about its frosted strawberry pop tarts are miss eating 913 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 1: since quote they give consumers the impression the fruit filling 914 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:06,160 Speaker 1: contains a greater relative and absolute amount of strawberries than 915 00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,920 Speaker 1: it does the feeling. The filing goes on to state 916 00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:12,960 Speaker 1: that despite strawberries being the products quote characterizing ingredient on 917 00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:16,120 Speaker 1: the actual ingredients list, dried strawberries don't get a mention 918 00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:21,799 Speaker 1: until the contains two or less section, and then they 919 00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 1: go on quote based on a quantitative estimate and analysis 920 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,280 Speaker 1: of the feeling, it appears to or may even contain 921 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:32,239 Speaker 1: more non strawberry fruit than strawberry ingredients to give consumers 922 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:34,920 Speaker 1: the false impression that the product contains a greater absolute 923 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,080 Speaker 1: and relative amount of strawberries than it does. It contains 924 00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:40,399 Speaker 1: red forty, a synthetic food coloring made from petroleum Red 925 00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:43,720 Speaker 1: forty makes the strawberry pear apple combination look bright red 926 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:48,040 Speaker 1: like his own strawberries, or has more strawberries than it does. 927 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,800 Speaker 1: I mean this is like the water Gate of pop tarts. 928 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: I guess I mean more than anything. I just think 929 00:54:55,520 --> 00:55:01,440 Speaker 1: of like America. Hello, we've been eating processed food since forever, 930 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:06,080 Speaker 1: and I hope people out there don't believe that it's 931 00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 1: all just like organic mushed up strawberries in your very 932 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 1: cheap pop carts. That's not what's happening. I have so 933 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 1: many thoughts, like, for one, obviously, American food i Q 934 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 1: is very low, and I think it's lower the lower 935 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 1: your wages are, right, the the less money you have 936 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,319 Speaker 1: to spend at the grocery store, the less you have 937 00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 1: experimenting with new food. Yeah, or you're in a food 938 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:35,360 Speaker 1: desert because of that, and your options are truly limited 939 00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:38,800 Speaker 1: to these things in a box, yeah, right, these prepackaged items. 940 00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:43,200 Speaker 1: And so the idea that it's like definitely silly to 941 00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:45,760 Speaker 1: read because it's like, have you tasted a pop tart? 942 00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 1: There's nothing authentic about what's happening in your mouth as 943 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 1: you eat the pop tarts. Cinnamon sugars were my bag, 944 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 1: and I knew what was happening in there. Okay, it's 945 00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,600 Speaker 1: not even they didn't grind up like fresh cinnamon sticks, 946 00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:02,040 Speaker 1: and it's no um. I also understand this idea of 947 00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:05,439 Speaker 1: feeling tricked. Like when I first started learning about food, 948 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:08,319 Speaker 1: which like mid college of like what's in this and 949 00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 1: how do I prepare it? And and what goes into 950 00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:13,240 Speaker 1: all of these things? Like it was like a mind 951 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:16,560 Speaker 1: freak of just like how how have I been eating? 952 00:56:16,600 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 1: And and what does the future look like for me? 953 00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:21,279 Speaker 1: Because now I have this knowledge, but I have no 954 00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:24,440 Speaker 1: money to correct what I'm considered to continue to eat 955 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,400 Speaker 1: these terrible things just because that's what is within my 956 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:31,040 Speaker 1: financial bracket. And so I get where miss Anita is 957 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: coming from. She's frustrated. She wanted some strawberries. She's trying 958 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,720 Speaker 1: to give her kids a healthy breakfast, you know, serial 959 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 1: company slide. They told her it was part of a 960 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 1: complete breakfast. It's just sugar. Where did she go?
