Okay, I'm gonna say 26 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: two things. One. Yesterday, one of my friends, Um, she 27 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: posted an Instagram story where she was like, I logged 28 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: into musically for the first time in a couple of 29 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: months and realized I have over a hundred thousand followers. 30 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: Here's a couple greatest hits, and I was just like, what. 31 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: This girl is not a performer. She just like I 32 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: guess did this on her off time. And then I 33 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: looked at If you guys don't know what musicality is, 34 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: it's like Twitter, except all you do is lip sync 35 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: to music. That's all it is. And then you move 36 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: the camera like really annoyingly. And if you can get 37 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: that work, and that's how you become real. Is it 38 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: musicality or musically musically it's whatever it is. Um And 39 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: uh shoot, So I searched it because I was just 40 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: like what and uh, it's it's Sophia Grace honey h 41 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: u n n y. And I wasn't able to look 42 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 1: at it on a laptop because I think you maybe 43 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,519 Speaker 1: have to have the app to view. And then I 44 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: went on this whole like rabbit hole of seeing people 45 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: who become famous through musically, and it's a lot of people. 46 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: It's like a new discovery thing. It's like the new 47 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: vine or you know, yeah, it is like the new vine, 48 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: and like can't you tip them live like it's a 49 00:02:54,000 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: switch or twitch twitch tik pappy twit. I mean, you 50 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: know how you know how funny thing is really a 51 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: couple of years ago. I feel like it's getting up 52 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: there as a platform to the point where Donald Glover 53 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: is going to use it to release some sad notes. 54 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: I thought musically was washed though I thought it was done. 55 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: Is it Is it done? I don't know. I remember 56 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: when it was peak like a probably because I remember 57 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: when I was making digital content like everyone's like, well 58 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: that's the kids, the things kids love. But that was 59 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: and it's pure lips thinking you can't like musician, can you? 60 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 1: That's the thing is, can you just go on there 61 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: and just be like leave a thing with no music. No, 62 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: I think you has to be with a song, because 63 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: the whole point is just to like act out. I mean, look, 64 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: probably some young person will correct me, but from my 65 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: understanding is like, yeah, you're just sort of lips thinking, 66 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: and then you have those options of like recording it 67 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: slow so then you can play back quicker, so everything 68 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: is more dramatic. And you know that app they say 69 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: that in the Kendrick Lamar Humble video, there's like a 70 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: shot on this automated crane arm that's like a very 71 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: expensive shot because like from production standpoint, that shot must't 72 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: cost a lot of money because that arm they use 73 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: is like program Anyway, there's just a scene in the 74 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: video where it looks like he's trying to do the 75 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: musically type ship with the camera like going around him, 76 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: and that's like a non to musically, So yeah, I 77 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: mean maybe it's like and it's just like, let me 78 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: get a nod to music, Kelly, Yeah, musically, I love it. 79 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: What else do you have in your search history to 80 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: give us to Oh this is just crazy. Um, no 81 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,799 Speaker 1: one's going to be able to find this link because 82 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 1: I only found it because I was looking at like 83 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: Deadpool two news. But um, and you screenshot. Yeah, I 84 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: screenshot it, and they still haven't changed it. So there's 85 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: a website. It's called Age of the Nerd dot com 86 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: and its headline is twenty century Fox releases a n 87 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: e g. A ton of Deadpool two images. So twentieth 88 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: century Fox releases a negaton of Deadpool two images. And 89 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: I just couldn't stop laughing at this because it's been 90 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: like three days and it's still not corrected, and it 91 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: just is like, how much is a negaton? You know? 92 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: That's like that's like one of those questions that the 93 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: owl from the TUTSI old commercial asks how many times 94 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: neaton an offensive amount? Yeah? Yeah, I mean negats you 95 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: can fit in a Volkswagon. We don't know. I mean, 96 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: it doesn't sound like it sounds like a lot. Negaton 97 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: sounds like more than a megaton. Well, I mean, as 98 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: I searched it, it it sounds like a negatively charged electron. 99 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: That's true. Yeah, that's probably a real word. Yeah no, 100 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: I mean it's in wiktionary, so I don't know if 101 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: that's a thing. But look, and I hated chemistry and 102 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: all that. Ships, don't ask me about valance electron. Yeah, 103 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: but Wtionary is where most scientists go to. Absolutely Scott 104 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: Pruet's favorite website. What is something you think is overrated? 105 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: So you guys have probably covered this about Kanye and 106 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: the tweets and stuff what's going on, But here's my 107 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: position on it. Since when do we care what our 108 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 1: rappers political beliefs are? Like John Lennon was like an anarchist, 109 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: and I'm still listening to imagine, Like who cares? You 110 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: brought that about Morrissey to like this isn't this isn't 111 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: new to artists with fucked political views. I think the 112 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: problem is, you know, his music like is nearly antithetical 113 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: to like this ship leading up to this point seemed 114 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: diametrically opposed to what Donald Trump stood for us. It's like, wait, 115 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: what the what is going on? I mean, I don't 116 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: think he's making any good points. Like I listened to 117 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: that t I song. I think it's trash. Yeah, it's 118 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: not even like it's a cool format to be like 119 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: we're having a conversation overbeat, but it's bad. I hope 120 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: it's not on the album. And and also Connie doesn't 121 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: come up with any good counterpoints. Yeah, we talked about this. Yeah, 122 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: we talked about this yesterday. It's like he did us 123 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: all a favor because we were like, well, like, maybe 124 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: he's gonna come out with like something we haven't thought 125 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: about before because he's on some like next level ship 126 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: and like has lost his mind and then put it 127 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: back together. Maybe he has like some crazy new way 128 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: that you know, the maga hat makes sense. But then 129 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: he just like gave all the like washed shitty points 130 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: that like conservatives make when they first like come around 131 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: to that. But I mean everyone's like it mostly seemed 132 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: like he was is saying like like t I would 133 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,239 Speaker 1: be like, don't you know that if you support person 134 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: who has like and then Kanye was just like I'm 135 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: a free thinker. It's like, what does that answer my question? Man? 136 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: Don't you feel you have a responsibility to people because 137 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: of your platform? Hey man, I took the maga hat, 138 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: give you empathy and shut. So here's the thing I 139 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: think is overrated is that I don't think his wearing 140 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: a maga hat is going to have an effect on 141 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: actual politics. Like I then maybe I'm wrong, but I 142 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: don't think like Donald Trump is now going to have 143 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: all these black people supporting him because Kanye wore this hat. 144 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: But the problem is you start seeing in his comments 145 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: there are people of color starting because they're such Kanye 146 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: fans and they are divorced from the reality of politics 147 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: and oppression in this country that they're like, they're just 148 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: standing for let him do that or whatever. And that's 149 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: not good because you don't want to say, you'll let 150 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: this person's like alignment with someone who's racist. Let that rock. Nah. 151 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: I can't. I can't stand for that. I'm torn because 152 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: there's a part of me that's, yeah, whatever, I'm gonna 153 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: listen to his music. If he wants to say that, 154 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: let's let him say whatever, you know, And I'm like, 155 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: I understand. Maybe later are on the same side as me, 156 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: where they don't think the ramifications are that much or 157 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: that well. I think it has an effect for people 158 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: who might not be as educated on things that if 159 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: Kanye West is your source of like understanding things, because 160 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: think about how like people like her crack music. We're like, 161 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: oh my god, have your crack music? And I'm like, yeah, 162 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: have you read a book? Uh? But at the same time, 163 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: you know, like when you have someone like that, people 164 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: listen to him, and that can already that can disarm 165 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: people from actually really understanding how nuanced this whole thing is. 166 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: But I agree to your point that Kanye does have 167 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 1: very little effect, I think on the greater picture, but 168 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: to his fans, I see something that's potentially not great. 169 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: And also did you see the behind the scenes that 170 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: he put out to the people versus Ya or like 171 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: t I was like they show like a conversation t 172 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: I had with him and He's like, what the fund 173 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: is going on? And Kanye is like, look, I don't 174 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: agree with half the shit he does. And then he's 175 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: and so Tias like, Okay, well, what's the ship that 176 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: you like? Exactly? Because I'm not understanding like that, He's 177 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: like me the same personality. We both loud. Well, the 178 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: thing the basis was, he's just essentially like the fact 179 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: that everyone told Donald Trump he couldn't be president and 180 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: he did, and he's a living at Deida's commercial impossible. 181 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 1: It is nothing. So I think he was just like 182 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: he did the impossible and that's what I funk with. 183 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: And then he was like I wore the Maga hat 184 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: to show like I could wear it and transform it's 185 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: about equality, and like I I can wear it too, 186 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,199 Speaker 1: and it's like, no, people don't. It's not that black 187 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 1: people are dying to wear a Maga hat, and it's 188 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: people of colors just feel like, oh, we don't have 189 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: access to that, or like we can't wear it. That 190 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: is just a symbol of a part of our culture 191 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: that we do not vibe with. So why the funk 192 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,439 Speaker 1: would we want to wear that. They're not people out 193 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: here being like, hey man, I wish I could get 194 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: a clown hood. Here's a real question. All these people 195 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: who are like pissed the Kanye and Da Da Da 196 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: Da and he's, oh, you disappointed me. I think all 197 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 1: of them are still gonna listen to his album? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, 198 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: I will. And the thing is his politics are just whacked. 199 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: That's why I'm like, I don't like, we don't need 200 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: to give this guy the kind of weight to what 201 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: he's saying because he's like every other person who doesn't understand. 202 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: And the probably a problem is he has a platform 203 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: to do it, and that's why we have to talk 204 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: about it. And if his album has any of the 205 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: political content that his second song, the yea Versus the 206 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: People song, if it has any of that in the songs. 207 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 1: Then I will listen to his album exactly once and 208 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: then I won't listen here because I can't deal with that. 209 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 1: Like it's the same ship with Like on Life of Pablo, 210 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: there are some songs that are fucking great, but the 211 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: ones where he's like rapping about, like getting bleach on 212 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: his T shirt porn star in the end, it's just like, so, 213 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, it's like, man, you're you're a 214 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: little bit lost. I don't know, but lost his north. Yeah, 215 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: not his child, but his true I mean that song 216 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 1: is so frustrating because it's like it's really cool. So honestly, 217 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: the most fire ship, and I'll say this again was 218 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: lift Up or lift us Up or whatever. Yeah, whoopy 219 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 1: d scoop scode. This is hilarious. This ship knocks to 220 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: me and I like it because you know what, Yeah, 221 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: the thing is, your genius comes out when you don't 222 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: intend to use it, because you could literally probably create 223 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 1: a rap album of all jibberish and I would probably 224 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: rock that because that would be so good. That's how 225 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: he recorded. So there was a journalist who went about 226 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 1: five days before he was going to release Late Registration, 227 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: his second album, and they were like listening to a 228 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: demo and they said half of the tracks were him 229 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: just basically doing that, like him being like that rhythm 230 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: because he didn't he hadn't filled in the lyrics yet. 231 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 1: He just knew how he wanted it to say, so like, yeah, 232 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: I mean that's and that's what a good artist. That's 233 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: he's trying to be musical rhythm, But like, don't fill 234 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: that ship in with stuff about how you love an 235 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 1: underdog story is just like Maga hats hats exactly, and 236 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: it's just like whoa still bad? What's something that's underrating? Yeah, 237 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: So I don't know if anyone remembers this movie. This 238 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: came out in like two thousand and thirteen ish start 239 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: Aubrey Plaza. It's called The to Do List. It's a 240 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: pretty much female version of super Bad in the sense 241 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: that it's like a teenage girl. She wants to lose 242 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: her virginity and she has like a to do list 243 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: literally of like I want to like and their sexual 244 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: things like I want to try this, I wanta try that, 245 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: I wanta try that. And it's a and it was 246 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: and like Don Glovers in it and some other cool 247 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: people are in it and it's such a funny movie 248 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: and for some reason it didn't get pushed out.

What's something they're saying? 281 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: As an Ethiopian person, This is a myth that's been 282 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: going around forever and ever, and it's that Ethiopian people 283 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: are starving. I mean, we first of all know this 284 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: isn't true because there's like a whole row people are starting. 285 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: There's like an Ethio there's a whole row of Ethiopian 286 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: restaurants that people go to. Then the joke everyone always 287 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: makes it like Ethiopian food. Ah, thought that was the problem, 288 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: Like that's like that's the go to, but just the idea. 289 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: Like I know so many fat Ethiopians. Okay, I can 290 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: count twelve uncles off top. Every fat Ethiopian has shaped 291 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: like the dude from Despicable Me. Ye yeah, well you 292 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: can just tell like they weren't meant to be chubby, 293 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: because like it'll be like skinny arms, skinny legs, and 294 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: then they just are all concentrated like the Despicable Me 295 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: dude and and there.

Yeah. 431 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: And also not to mention because may day the people 432 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:42,959 Speaker 1: in Puerto Rico are also in the streets too, because 433 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 1: as we have we've mentioned here, but we will have 434 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 1: to continue to mention the situation has not really improved 435 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 1: in Puerto Rico since her came Rea hit in September. 436 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: And again we have to remember these are American citizens 437 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: that we are neglecting now. If this was sucking Rhode 438 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: Island or Connecticut that had no power for however many months, 439 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,199 Speaker 1: oh we will be up in arms. But because this 440 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 1: is in an island and we're talking about brown people, uh, 441 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: there is not much of an emphasis on their struggle 442 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: right now. And a lot of it has to do 443 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 1: too is because you know, Puerto Rico, because their commonwealth, 444 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: the mainland government here has basically big daddydum been like, look, 445 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to figure out how to get rid 446 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: of your debt. You can't do that alone, so we're 447 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,880 Speaker 1: going to tell you how to do it. So Congress 448 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: set up like a financial oversight Board, which basically was 449 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 1: just going to tell Puerto Rico how to handle their spending, 450 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: and that basically caused a bunch of protests as well, 451 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: because it's like just this overreach of our government and 452 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: you know, they're pushing measures like doubling tuition at universities 453 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: or cutting people's pensions, or consolidating government agencies and reforming 454 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 1: labor laws. Like it's just a lot of bullshit to 455 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 1: save money. That really strips away the humanity of the 456 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: Puerto Rican Like someone's house burns down and you go 457 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,360 Speaker 1: and you're like, all right, let's restructure your finances instead 458 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: of being like, yeo, man, you need a place to sleep, 459 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: right exactly, and like not to mention that, you know, 460 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 1: a lot of the struggles of the Puerto Rican economy 461 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: has been exacerbated by the government over here and Wall 462 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: Street as well, who is like packaging up you know, 463 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: selling bonds and things like that, and a lot of 464 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: people are just saying, like, you know, one solution would 465 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 1: be like can't we just like forgive Puerto Rico's debt? 466 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: Like I mean, like, what's the problem. The problem is 467 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,959 Speaker 1: because money rules the world. There is a lot of 468 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: investors like mutual funds, pension funds. They are basically tied 469 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: up in a lot of these bonds, so fucking those 470 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: up would mean losses for some of these people who 471 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: are these investors. So again, uh, you know, let's just 472 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: please look at the solutions. I know some people, you know, 473 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: want to talk about statehood for Puerto Rico or independence. 474 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: I mean, those are kind of very complex roads to 475 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: go down. But at the very least, we need to 476 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 1: begin treating Puerto Rico like they are Americans and not 477 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: to mention the last time the US bomb their own 478 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 1: people was in Puerto Rico. So this is just a 479 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: kind of like basic question about capitalism. But why every 480 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 1: year do I think nations feel the same way too? 481 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: In all companies you have to post growth and profit. 482 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: Why can't you be equal each year? Why does it 483 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 1: have to be constantly growing? I don't get that. That's 484 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: a good question. Man. When I was at a cract, 485 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: that was a thing, like we hit a level and 486 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: we were like, man, we're way bigger than we had 487 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: ever expected to be, Like this is great. And then 488 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: the people we answered to were like, all right, so 489 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 1: we're going to project like growth and it's like, no, 490 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 1: that actually hurts us, and makes sense over extend, but like, yeah, 491 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: there's no plan beyond just grow, grow, grow, grow. I 492 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 1: mean homeostas like looking looking at this when it says 493 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: like they can't forgive the debt because that would mean 494 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 1: posting a loss. Oh my god, it doesn't even mean 495 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: like an over It just means probably like a smaller growth. 496 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 1: It doesn't even actually mean there's plenty of money. But 497 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: again growth. Uh. We are a capitalist country, you know 498 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 1: what I mean, That's just how this ship works. And 499 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: you know, and that's another thing too, is that, like 500 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: you know, people like Standy Hoyer from Maryland are talking 501 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: about like this really isn't in line with the beliefs 502 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: of the country as a like a democratic republic as 503 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: it were, because we are treating Puerto Ricans like subjects 504 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 1: of an empire rather than citizens. And that's another huge 505 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: thing to look at. It's like they can't vote either, 506 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 1: can they not an our mainland elect which is yeah, 507 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: so again, predatory lending is like a dark secret of 508 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 1: capitalism that you know, a lot of these people who 509 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: get wealthy are are getting wealthy off of the backs 510 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: of people who are disadvantaged. And I forget there's one 511 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,719 Speaker 1: hedge fund or company that owns like eighty or nine 512 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: of Puerto Rico's dead. It's like disgusting and that that's 513 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: like I should probably research that because I know a 514 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,479 Speaker 1: lot of people are trying to divest from that company 515 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: or not work with that company because they're like the 516 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: ones who also present a major stumbling block. We will 517 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: tell you who that company is in the footnotes. All right, 518 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 1: we're gonna take a quick break and we will be 519 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:09,159 Speaker 1: right back.

But if you're not listening 536 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 1: to Ethnically Ambiguous, I have to say once again, you 537 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: should be. It's one of the great podcasts being made currently. Alright, guys, 538 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: let's get into the news of the day. Mueller his 539 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 1: questions for Trump have leaked. It's a list of what 540 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 1: us questions that the effect these questions had on me. 541 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 1: It was like almost a reality check where some of 542 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: the things that I had digested and moved on from 543 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: like a while ago are sort of put into the 544 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: context of like a baseline of normalcy, like of what 545 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 1: an investigation would look like in and just like stuff 546 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: he has questions about behavior, He's like, so, why did 547 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: you do that? Why did you fire, why did you 548 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 1: fire call me? Why are you be rating your attorney 549 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: general in public on Twitter all the time? Just like 550 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: asking those questions. It's like, oh, yeah, these events that 551 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 1: I have just like normalized in my mind are fucking 552 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: crazy and like completely the behavior of somebody who you know, 553 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 1: in the cold, sober lighted morning is behaving like an 554 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: actual guilty criminal. I mean, this kind of sucks formula though, 555 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: because it just gives Trump. Would Trump already get these? 556 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: So this is so. The way this worked is Mueller 557 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: sat down with Trump's lawyers and said, here in order, 558 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: we we want you to like have Trump meet with us, 559 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 1: so we're gonna give you the questions ahead of time. 560 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: And they read these to them. And what did they 561 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: read them? Though? They told them the questions, and Trump's 562 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: attorneys were taking them down basically trying to write them 563 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: down as fast as possible. So people are speculating because 564 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: of the way the questions are worded. Uh it's not 565 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: fully like legal and uh there's also grammatical inconsistencies. But 566 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: so they think that these aren't actually from like Mueller's 567 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: list of questions. These are Trump's attorneys sort of version 568 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: like what they heard. Well, they said yeah, because the 569 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: way that probably happened was that they sat with Mueller 570 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: and he just broadly outlined these topics and then that's 571 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: when they're like, Okay, these are probably the questions that 572 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 1: are going to be asked. Yeah, but that's why. Yeah, 573 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: the I mean again, he's not but like that's he's 574 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: not trying to do a gotcha thing. He's just saying, 575 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: this is what I want to know. Man. Like that's 576 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: why John Dowd quit because remember he was trying to 577 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: be like, dude, we cannot have Donald Trump answer any 578 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: of these fucking questions because he will self own and 579 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: just lie his way through this thing, and it will 580 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: be a major fucking problem. Yeah. And I can't even imagine, 581 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: like these are such specific questions, like what did you 582 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: mean when you told Russian diploets on may tent like 583 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: probably doesn't even remember that. I bet, Like he's just like, 584 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: I mean, they're gonna tell him what to say, but 585 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 1: even if they tell him what to say, he's gonna 586 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 1: go off book like crazy. He likes to jazz, like 587 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: to go off top. Yeah. So I mean there's many 588 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: ways to you know, kind of take this in. I 589 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: think one thing is that it clearly again underlines the 590 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 1: fact that Robert Muller, I mean, he's got a plan. 591 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: We've seen it with the way he's been seeding these 592 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: investigations in other offices through like throughout New York and 593 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: and Virginian things like that. But yeah, these the it 594 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: seems like it's just it's just getting hotter for Trump, 595 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 1: and the fact is their defense to these kinds of things, 596 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: it's getting worse and worse because like Trump's like, well, 597 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: these just proved like there's no collusion or anything. It's like, motherfucker. 598 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: Their questions directly talking about what knowledge did you have 599 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: of any outreach by your campaign to Russia about potential 600 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: assistance to the campaign. I was just doing very broadhand, 601 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: I mean interlocking my fingers things like that. He could 602 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: just be like I hadn't he just lie I had 603 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: no whatever. But things like this are so hard where 604 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: they're like, what did you mean your interview with Lester 605 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: Whole about Mr Comey and Russia. It's like I'm trying 606 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: to think how his yeah, defendable position. Yeah, there is 607 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: no way. Yeah. Trump's bonds in Twitter was so disgraceful 608 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: that the questions concerning the Russian witch hunt were leaked 609 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 1: to the media, leaked in quotes for some reason, because 610 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: he's like, I don't know how to use the means 611 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: that he leaked them. People are speculating it must have 612 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: been from his side because they are basically a moron's 613 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: version of what these questions would be like, so they're 614 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: clearly not like how Mueller would have written them. Then 615 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: he says, no questions on collusion. Oh, I see, you 616 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: have a made up phony crime collusion that never existed, 617 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 1: and an investigation begun with illegally leaked classified information. Nice. Also, 618 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: the other one of it would seem very hard to 619 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: obstruct justice for a crime that never happened. It's like 620 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: his idea of obstruction to that. It could be like, well, 621 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: crime has to be committed, and then that's when you obstruct. 622 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: It's like, no, you're you're trying to avoid justice, so 623 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: you obstructed so it doesn't touch you. Yeah, you can't 624 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: just be like, well, you didn't get me for that 625 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: other crime, so I couldn't have been obstructed anything. Okay, Well, 626 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: crowd interview saying what other crime? Oh? Nothing, I'm just 627 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: saying hypothetically, uh, what I would be doing, right, But yeah, 628 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: he asks him about the Lester whole thing. It is 629 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: really just like if you had asked me to spend 630 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: a month just going back over the details of the case. 631 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: A lot of these are like the questions I would 632 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: have had, like Okay, so that clearly guilty thing. You said, 633 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: What did you mean by that? Just very like open ended? 634 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 1: I mean, right now, can we think of a way 635 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: his lawyers could tell him to answer that. He's well, 636 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 1: I said, always thinking about Russia when I fired him. 637 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: But I was just like thinking about like literally, I 638 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: was thinking about it as I said that, Not that 639 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 1: I was considering that as a motivation to him, like 640 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: I'm saying, it was just on my mind, yes, exactly, 641 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: like I don't know, Yeah, it would be really weird. 642 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: And that's too complex of a logical dance. That's that's 643 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: a form of logical jiu jitsu that Trump has a 644 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: white belt in. He's not ready to Russia and the 645 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: Napoleonic Wars for some reason. That's uh. One question. So 646 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: a lot of these are things that he's making reference to, 647 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: things we already knew about, but you know, putting them 648 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 1: in the context of oh yeah, these are these are 649 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:13,959 Speaker 1: things you would want to know about if you were 650 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: trying to find out if a crime happened. One one 651 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: question that I was especially intrigued by. He asks what 652 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: Trump knew about campaign aids, including the former chairman Paul Manafort, 653 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 1: seeking assistance from Moscow, which implies that there is actual, 654 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 1: like knowledge of some form of contact from Paul Manafort 655 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: and campaign aids like asking Moscow for assistance, which we 656 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: don't have any evidence of. We don't know of the 657 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 1: existence of any evidence of, but that question implies the 658 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:50,479 Speaker 1: knowledge of some evidence of that. Again, they must know 659 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: so much, because if you look at like people like 660 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: vander Swan or whatever, that one lawyer and Rick Gates 661 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: who like lied thinking Robert Muller doesn't know everything, and 662 00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 1: he just comes back, He's like, fam, I know you lied, 663 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: has already have on the information. Like, I can't imagine 664 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 1: how close to the chest these cards are that even 665 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: if like with these questions being asked, you know what 666 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 1: the direction of this investigation could truly go? And really 667 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 1: Robert Mueller really is the only person that knows. I mean, 668 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: do you think that the play here is that he 669 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: like commits perjury in this interview and then that's how 670 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 1: he takes him out. I don't even think that's going 671 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 1: to be the way it happens. I mean, it's not 672 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 1: clear what could happen. Yeah, I don't know. Would Congress 673 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: be willing to do anything? You know, because their whole 674 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: strategy is, now, just make sure the Democrats do not 675 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: get the House so I don't get impeached or an 676 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: impeachment debate doesn't even begin. So what do you guys 677 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:42,359 Speaker 1: think of how kmy was like, I don't want him 678 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,959 Speaker 1: to be impeached. I want the American people to vote 679 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,919 Speaker 1: him out, so that that's like, like, yeah, it's it's 680 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 1: a tough pill to swallow, but it's kind of like 681 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,839 Speaker 1: there's like a wise dad aspect of that of sort 682 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: of like, let's not use this as a get out 683 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,359 Speaker 1: of jail free card, because I think also for people 684 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,080 Speaker 1: who support Donald Trump, that will give them motivation to 685 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: begin to cook up all kinds of conspiracies and whatever. 686 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,479 Speaker 1: Whether he can just be you know, somehow we can 687 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: hamstring him by making sure that the Republicans no longer 688 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: control Congress, and that way there's a better check on 689 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,879 Speaker 1: his power. That could be a good thing. But yeah, 690 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 1: I can also see like by letting the process work 691 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: in terms of voting amount might just be a more 692 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: It's like, look, people fucked up and voted for him. 693 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: You made your bed, now sleep in it. But at 694 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: the same time, god, fucking so many more years to do. 695 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: I see what he's saying, and part of me wants 696 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:35,879 Speaker 1: to like be on board of it, but the other 697 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: part two is like, yo, I don't even I don't 698 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: want to even know what the worst of this presidency 699 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: could be. And that's that's the other part of it. Yeah, 700 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I could definitely see a scenario 701 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: where nothing fully gets done, like even if Mueller could 702 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:55,359 Speaker 1: completes his investigation, but the GOP just refuses to, right, 703 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,879 Speaker 1: you know, do do anything about it. I could see 704 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: a version of this where he only gets in trouble 705 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 1: once the Democratic Party controls both branches of the government. Basically, yeah, yeah, yeah, 706 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 1: well we'll see. Hey, we'll see because obviously, you know, 707 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnelly and he's not gonna cocaine, Mitch. So what 708 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: what was that? So we are officially six months out 709 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: from the mid terms. Uh, we talked last week about 710 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 1: this weird thing, uh that's happening in the Democratic Party 711 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: where uh, you know, the people seem to be extra motivated. 712 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: There's supposedly this blue tsunami coming, but they're motivated by 713 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 1: progressive politics, like the idea of counterbalancing this huge sort 714 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:50,320 Speaker 1: of nationalisticticful autocratic wave with a progressive wave that seems 715 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: to be where most of the energy is coming from 716 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: on the Democratic side. And the Democratic Party is this 717 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 1: old machine sheen that is used to you know, the 718 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,359 Speaker 1: way they determine whether somebody is a good candidate is 719 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: how much access they have to fundraising essentially, And so yeah, 720 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,360 Speaker 1: just the old old don't want to do anything party, 721 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:19,760 Speaker 1: Like Michelle Wolfe accurately pointed out Democrats not really interested 722 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: in rocking the boat too much because again there's this 723 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 1: fear of that will always happen, because there's this idea 724 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,760 Speaker 1: of like the McGovern effect that basically the democratic nomination 725 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,839 Speaker 1: process you know, can be if it's controlled too much 726 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: by the far left. Uh, you know, then it's harder 727 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: to win a general election because it's too far left right. 728 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,720 Speaker 1: McGovern was a candidate who ran against Nixon when Nixon 729 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: cheated with the whole Watergate, right, but he got smashed 730 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 1: in the election. It was the biggest electoral landslide ever 731 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 1: because people think it was because McGovern, the Democratic candidate, 732 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 1: was too far left. Yeah, and so that that's created 733 00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: this in fighting where man, the one thing that actually 734 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 1: funk up the Democrats taking the House, is this fucking 735 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: in fighting where they will consume each other in primaries 736 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,360 Speaker 1: because you will have the D n C or D 737 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 1: triple cy spending against other Democrats who are too far left. 738 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: And that's the problem is that, you know, the people 739 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 1: definitely are receptive to a very progressive agenda. But you know, 740 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 1: I think the establishment Democrats are just like, but we 741 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: can't mess this up, and oddly enough, you might mess 742 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 1: it up by not just going with the floop right. 743 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: But you know, the good news is it's also happening 744 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 1: on the right too, because Don Blankenship, who is like 745 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 1: the old mine owner from West Virginia who we've talked about, 746 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 1: who spent four years in prison because he killed twenty 747 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: nine people with just uh you know, cost cutting and 748 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: letting his mind be incredibly dangerous, even though he had 749 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 1: like there were literally five hundred uh safety violations in 750 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 1: the years leading up to this mind collapse, and he 751 00:38:56,400 --> 00:39:00,280 Speaker 1: just actively was like ignore, ignore, ignore, and then twenty 752 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: nine people died, and it's totally on his head. Yeah, 753 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: And he's going up against Joe Manchon, who used to 754 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,439 Speaker 1: be the governor of West Virginia and like the Republicans 755 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 1: just hate Blankenship because his his his reputation is just 756 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 1: terrible in the state, and they're like, dude, we're gonna fun. 757 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 1: There's no way we're gonna claim this seat with this 758 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 1: guy in there. Recently, this guy Don Blankenship has becoming 759 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 1: through with some fire takes. First, I think he actually 760 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,800 Speaker 1: related to Uh. You know, so Miss McConnell's wife a 761 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 1: lane Chaw their Chinese and her father like owns a 762 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 1: large shipping company, a Chinese Chinese shipping company, and Don 763 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 1: Blankenship referred to him as a quote wealthy China person, 764 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: really a PC term uh. And then recently he's starting 765 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: to call it like he was saying, we need to 766 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: ditch cocaine. Mitch uh and Pe were like, what the funk? 767 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 1: What the fund does Mitch mcconaugh do with the ya. 768 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 1: Apparently this is tying to a story that was saying 769 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: that the shipping company that his father in law owns 770 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 1: was implicated in like a smuggling scheme from Colombia to Europe. 771 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:07,320 Speaker 1: They were hiding a bunch of yea like on these ships. 772 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: So that means that Mitch McConnell is now the new 773 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: Yea Yo Kingpin, which is all it takes. I mean, 774 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,280 Speaker 1: if Bill Clinton is the new Scarface, then I guess 775 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell is the new uh Frank White. I mean, 776 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: just the possibility that story is true makes me like 777 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell like eight times more, which just says mostly 778 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: about how unlikable Mitch McConnell is, because it's just such 779 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: a That was my favorite Michelle Wolf joke of him 780 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:33,479 Speaker 1: getting his next circumstance. I mean, I'm just sitting here 781 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,800 Speaker 1: trying to imagine him doing a line of coke without 782 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: his neck getting I feel like he would do it 783 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: through his mouth now, he would he would have to 784 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 1: use like a like a spoon. He can't down that 785 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,720 Speaker 1: that his throat. Would He would get it mixed into 786 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: a nice pudding it like I'll prefer to bouffit. Uh So. 787 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: An example of the democratic conflict that we've been talking 788 00:40:56,560 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: about is happening in the Georgia primary campaign right now. 789 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,400 Speaker 1: So there's a woman, Stacy Abrams, who is the former 790 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: minority leader of the Georgia House of Representatives. She is 791 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:13,280 Speaker 1: running for governor right now, and they have their primary 792 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 1: and she is, you know, this forward looking you know, 793 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: lots of popular support, and the Democratic Party has its 794 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 1: eyes fixed on winning the white swing voters. She is 795 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 1: a person of color and she would be the first 796 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 1: black woman in the nation to be would be the 797 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:35,400 Speaker 1: first black woman in the nation getting the way of that. Yeah, 798 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 1: And the Democratic Party is like, na, she's too progressive. 799 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 1: We need to win those white Trump voters back. And 800 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: uh actually recently heard a political operative talking about this 801 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: strategy and being like, get this. There are some people 802 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 1: on the left who want to just forego trying to 803 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 1: win back the Trump voters. And it's like, no, but 804 00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 1: you don't want to make that your policy is just 805 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 1: like trying to focus on, like to appeal to them 806 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: when you have appeasing to white racist because he could 807 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,359 Speaker 1: just lose everyone right, right exactly, And like you have 808 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:13,240 Speaker 1: this huge wave of you know, enthusiasm that you could 809 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 1: be trying to surf, but instead you're like paddling against 810 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 1: it and trying to fucking get to these people who 811 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 1: aren't going to vote for you, like no matter what, 812 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,799 Speaker 1: because they have somebody who is just appealing to their 813 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,799 Speaker 1: basest instincts, right. And I think when you look at her, 814 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: you know her background, Stacy Abrahams like, she's like a 815 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 1: real person. She's not a bureaucratt, it's not a billionaire. 816 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: The thing that people probably were really yearning for is 817 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 1: not like they want an outsider, but they need an 818 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 1: outsider of this class of elite people who are entitled. 819 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 1: You need people who have come from planet Earth, who 820 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 1: understand the value of one dollar, who understand what is 821 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:53,840 Speaker 1: that steak when you lose your job, who understand what 822 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 1: is that steak when you're trying to raise a family 823 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 1: if you're a single parent or whatever. So many of 824 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 1: these candidates are disconnected from that on both sides, and 825 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,399 Speaker 1: I think that's really what we you know, I'm I'm 826 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: really I'm liking to see people who are like social 827 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:07,839 Speaker 1: workers who are starting to run now, because these are 828 00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,600 Speaker 1: people who are actually interacting with the the the actual 829 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 1: of the country, who are affected by you know this, 830 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 1: Like this is the bottom of this New York Times 831 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:17,720 Speaker 1: article about her, where it says the math is clear. 832 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 1: Black voters are a quarter of Democrats, and black women 833 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 1: have the highest turnout. I didn't know that. Yeah, black 834 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:28,600 Speaker 1: women are the highest percentage of Democratic voters of their whatever. Yeah, 835 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 1: people of color have come out in droves, especially these 836 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:33,080 Speaker 1: last couple of special elections, I mean especially when it 837 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 1: comes down more like that was huge. And I remember 838 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:39,320 Speaker 1: that because everyone was like thank black women. Yeah, yeah, 839 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,839 Speaker 1: because and I feel like the Democratic Party is just 840 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,400 Speaker 1: taking them for granted. And it's also it's also one 841 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 1: of these things they they you know, they have to 842 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: make themselves important. So these are fundraisers and they are 843 00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: trying to see who can raise the most funds and 844 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 1: so you know, they've found this woman, Stacy Evans. Uh, 845 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:06,400 Speaker 1: they were like, we'll find our own Stacy. Stacy Evans 846 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 1: is a millionaire, so they are running her against Stacy Abrams. 847 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,959 Speaker 1: So anyways, Stacy Abrams is a good candidate. We told 848 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,879 Speaker 1: you guys, we'd tell you about some really dope Democrats. 849 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,759 Speaker 1: Check her out and uh, we're gonna take a quick break. 850 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:33,399 Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back. And we wanted 851 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,760 Speaker 1: to go out on a couple of foods stories. Whole 852 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:41,760 Speaker 1: Foods is partnering with a chain, uh called Yellow Fever. 853 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 1: Oh cool. What kind of food do they serve? My own? Man? 854 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just saw the tagline is like 855 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: Asian Bulls for your soul or some ship. This ship 856 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: yellow fever. I don't know what the first of all 857 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:56,879 Speaker 1: their defense is is a crane American chef, and she's 858 00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: trying to take back the phrase, which obviously slee is 859 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: a reference to the fetish fetish fetishization of Asian women, 860 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:08,879 Speaker 1: typically by white men, or the terrible disease that will 861 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 1: give you jaundice hence yellow fever, or like the fact 862 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 1: that people will be like the black white yellows Asians yellow. 863 00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 1: It's like the one like people don't say that out loud, 864 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:20,359 Speaker 1: like you'll be like you're black, you're white, brown, even 865 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: for Indian people, but yellows a weird one where you 866 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 1: don't because it's like weird yellow. Yeah, I don't know, yeah, yeah, 867 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 1: but yeah. The controversy basically started once this Whole Foods 868 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: three five, the Whole Feats for broke millennials, uh still 869 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 1: you know anyway, but they were basically had in their 870 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 1: new Long Beach store in California. They built like one 871 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 1: of these yellow fevers inside of the store and then 872 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 1: they tweeted it out like oh, come check ou yellow fever, 873 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 1: and people like, wait, what the funk is this? Because like, 874 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 1: I mean, this place has been around apparently since uh, 875 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 1: and so I don't know, I never really crossed my radar, 876 00:45:58,160 --> 00:45:59,959 Speaker 1: but yeah, when I see that, I'm sure most Asian 877 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 1: Americans who are like fam this is this is part 878 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 1: of a trend I've noticed in the Los Angeles area. 879 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 1: Southern California has some wildly problematic sushi restaurant names. There 880 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 1: was one near my house called me So Fishy. I 881 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:19,479 Speaker 1: swear to fucking guy, fishy like Miso, like the Miso soup, 882 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 1: well and fishy. But it was a play on the 883 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 1: Miso Horny line from Full Metal Jacket. Wow. When I 884 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: was in Little Tokyo, I saw a therapist office called 885 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:30,799 Speaker 1: Miso Sally Uh and that was really no. I mean, 886 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I mean their the rationalization is 887 00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 1: similar to what black people used when saying, like, that's 888 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,839 Speaker 1: why we say the end work, taking the power back 889 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:43,839 Speaker 1: from it, you know. But if we're going to use 890 00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:46,279 Speaker 1: that logic for this, that would be like if I 891 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: opened a restaurant called Nigga Soup or would people be 892 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:54,799 Speaker 1: okay with that? I don't think so Nigabooze Barbecue. Yeah, yeah, 893 00:46:55,680 --> 00:47:00,160 Speaker 1: it's like it's weird, and internalized hate is weird. As 894 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 1: the same ship we were talking about even with like 895 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:03,919 Speaker 1: the black dude who goes to the Trump rallies who's 896 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 1: like blacks for Trump. He called himself Michael the black guy. 897 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:09,120 Speaker 1: And it's like a way to you know, you're you're 898 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,959 Speaker 1: tapping into like what white people be Like, why can't 899 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 1: I say that? He says, it's okay. So we got 900 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: that co signed. And so if you got a co 901 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 1: sign from Asian person saying yellow fever, then everyone like, well, 902 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 1: what's the problem. And I get it. Maybe that's her 903 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,880 Speaker 1: prerogative to try and you know, use yellow fever as 904 00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:27,439 Speaker 1: a way to take back the power. But like even 905 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: as a name for food, I don't want a sickness. 906 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 1: I'm not walking into a place gross. Yeah, So it's 907 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 1: like me so fishy. That's the thing that always bothered me, 908 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,920 Speaker 1: is like you don't want your food to smell fish? 909 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 1: Yet like nobody is like I want to I want 910 00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 1: some sushi that smells fish. That's some Like that's some 911 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 1: like first draft marketing idea right there. And again it 912 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 1: was open for like a year and a half. And 913 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:49,840 Speaker 1: again it shows you, right, just like the H and 914 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 1: M bullshit of these other companies, when this dumb racist 915 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:54,919 Speaker 1: ship gets through the fucking pipes. You know, there were 916 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 1: meetings after meeting. The whole food is not gonna be like, oh, 917 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,080 Speaker 1: that was a decision of this one guy in Long Beach. No, 918 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 1: this went through many layers of approvals and discussions within 919 00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 1: the company internally, and that ships still got through. No 920 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:11,960 Speaker 1: one said, yo, the name is fucked right, full disclosure. 921 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: Does everyone know that you're half Asian? I don't know. Yeah, 922 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 1: I'm half Asian. I talked about it. I think most 923 00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 1: people do.

I kind of stopped. 956 00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:17,959 Speaker 1: I don't even know what that is. That's the old proof. 957 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:20,239 Speaker 1: Let's see, that's let the old men talk about hydrocks over. 958 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:23,360 Speaker 1: So Hydrocks is a cookie that looks exactly like Oreos, 959 00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:26,640 Speaker 1: except like the imprint on the cookie says hydrocks instead 960 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,319 Speaker 1: of Oreos, and they taste a little bit worse. And 961 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:32,960 Speaker 1: people assume that Hydrocks copied off Oreos. Hydrocks was around 962 00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 1: first Oreos copied off of Yeah, I mean, I feel 963 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 1: like Oreo just killed them because hydrocks sounds like a 964 00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:42,600 Speaker 1: horrible chemical. No, it does. It sounds like you would 965 00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:46,799 Speaker 1: use to like disinfect a or it sounds like the 966 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:52,479 Speaker 1: Enemies of g I Joe right, exactly small soldiers that movie. 967 00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:55,279 Speaker 1: Shut up Tommy Jones. But yeah, I think, I mean, 968 00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:58,919 Speaker 1: I like them. I used to be obsessed with them. 969 00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 1: Out full disclosure, they I would eat them is I 970 00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 1: would do the deferred gratification where I would just eat 971 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:07,320 Speaker 1: the top cookies and then finish off just the bottom 972 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,360 Speaker 1: half with the cream. So I'll get that out of 973 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:10,919 Speaker 1: the way, because I like the cream. I would take 974 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:14,000 Speaker 1: the top half off one do a sandwich big Max style, 975 00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:18,200 Speaker 1: so it's like three cookies, two creams. Yeah, that's the 976 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,640 Speaker 1: perfect one. And then you got that loose one. All 977 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:23,359 Speaker 1: sad about it. I haven't eaten Oreos in like ten years, 978 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:25,239 Speaker 1: so I don't. Well, let me tell you something. You 979 00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:28,839 Speaker 1: you're about to jump back on. Oreos is coming out 980 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:33,120 Speaker 1: with the fucking craziest flavors in China. So the thing 981 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 1: was is when Kraft introduced uh Oreos to the Chinese market, 982 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:41,080 Speaker 1: and let's just say it was a total flop. People 983 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,760 Speaker 1: really weren't working with them, and it was like quite literally, 984 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:46,400 Speaker 1: Craft was losing money on literally every cookie because like 985 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,279 Speaker 1: it was just nobody what was into it. So they've 986 00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:50,919 Speaker 1: had to go back in the lab and figure out, 987 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 1: we need to we need to tune this up so 988 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,160 Speaker 1: it's more appealing to the palette of the Chinese people. 989 00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:58,440 Speaker 1: And so now they're rebranding and the new style is 990 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 1: called Jeff Jeff uh And let me tell you, man, 991 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 1: these flavors are going to blow your socks off. Now. 992 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:08,359 Speaker 1: The first one, now in the advertising there, it's weird. 993 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:11,440 Speaker 1: They're they're giving each flavor of personality. So there's the 994 00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:14,799 Speaker 1: Macha character, which is calm and sen like. Then there's 995 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 1: a chili flavor which is a thrill seeker, and cheese 996 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:21,840 Speaker 1: is a ladies man. So I don't know how you 997 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:25,760 Speaker 1: you start eating cheese filled oreos, but guys, brace yourself. 998 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 1: So the cookie is still chocolate, I think. I mean, 999 00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 1: look at these right here. I'm looking at the I 1000 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:34,800 Speaker 1: just clicked through to this and it has the commercial 1001 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,759 Speaker 1: and it's like chocolate and the middle of cheese. Let 1002 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 1: him know. I mean, I guess this, like I was 1003 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,000 Speaker 1: thinking a chocolate and cheese a weird combo, but then 1004 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,359 Speaker 1: I guess we have cheesecake that has chocolate on it, 1005 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 1: So it's not so crazy, but we just haven't seen 1006 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 1: It's not like the bite of like a cheddar. You know, 1007 00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:53,760 Speaker 1: you're not paring cheddar with like a nice Swiss chocolate chili. 1008 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:57,839 Speaker 1: We're way more into sweeter things than I think a 1009 00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:02,080 Speaker 1: lot of Asian countries are in their palette. I don't know, man, Japan, 1010 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 1: we know there's ship out there that I went to 1011 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:09,160 Speaker 1: diabetic shock eating one bite. Oh yeah, I means do 1012 00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 1: not fun with sweet stuff. Chili is a flavor, so 1013 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:15,960 Speaker 1: chili in between chocolate. I don't it's as chili as 1014 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,120 Speaker 1: a kill seeker. Yeah, I hope it's like a chili pepper, 1015 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Because I like the spicy babe, Yeah, 1016 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 1: the pepper, babe. I like the spice with the chocolate, babe, 1017 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 1: like well Hopkins chocolate with the little chili. But if 1018 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:32,760 Speaker 1: it's like Ben's like, I'm not eating like fucking Tommy 1019 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 1: Burger with the way that The way it looks like 1020 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 1: in this commercial is like it's like not actually like 1021 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:40,040 Speaker 1: chili as in like a bowl of chili, but like 1022 00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:42,440 Speaker 1: the chili pepper. So it's red or something that's just 1023 00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:44,400 Speaker 1: red and hot. All right? I mean I eat a 1024 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 1: hot oreo. I feel like that could have a market 1025 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:51,400 Speaker 1: here because people want hot cheetos. They like hot oreos. Yeah, 1026 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:54,640 Speaker 1: if they want like red hots, like those candies that 1027 00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 1: are like like you did that, because no, I don't 1028 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 1: know they're they're terrible, but they did to oreos that 1029 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:03,920 Speaker 1: were Swedish fish, the filling with Swedish fish? Did you 1030 00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: ever try that? I went to this place. Have you 1031 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 1: guys been a museum? A failure? Before Jack raised both 1032 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 1: of yours? Have you guys? Have you guys been there 1033 00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:14,200 Speaker 1: a museum of Failure. No, it's an exhibit. I think 1034 00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:18,160 Speaker 1: it's still open. It's over it's my childhood bedroom. It's 1035 00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 1: over on Hollywood Boulevard, like near the mall over the island. Yeah, yeah, 1036 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,200 Speaker 1: Hollywood Highland. It's in there, and they have a whole 1037 00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:27,520 Speaker 1: wall that's just every oreo flavor and Swedish fish was 1038 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:28,719 Speaker 1: in there, and there were some other ones where I 1039 00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 1: was like gross, Yes, Swedish fish was gross, but it 1040 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:33,720 Speaker 1: basically tasted like you put an oreo in a Swedish 1041 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:35,319 Speaker 1: fish in your mouth at the same time, like they 1042 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 1: nailed the Swedish fish flavor. It was just not a 1043 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,879 Speaker 1: flavor that you want mixed with oreos. So that's kind 1044 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:44,919 Speaker 1: of maybe oreos are vegan, right, I'm pretty sure oreoles 1045 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:48,320 Speaker 1: are vegan. Probably they probably. That's how that's how unnatural 1046 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,279 Speaker 1: this ship is. We have you thinking there might be 1047 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 1: dairy just some some emotions we cooked up, And do 1048 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:56,800 Speaker 1: you think, like, is there anyone who's vegan who's like, oh, glad, 1049 00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,880 Speaker 1: oreos are vegan. Are a big part of my diet 1050 00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:02,719 Speaker 1: because I mean, you need to have the ability to 1051 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:06,480 Speaker 1: just murder yourself with some unhealthy ship. I love that 1052 00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 1: there's people that are like, just because I'm vegan doesn't 1053 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:13,439 Speaker 1: mean I'm healthy.
