Speaker 1: and I bring this up a few times on the show.

27
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: Clothing to me is just merely a way to not

28
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: be naked on a zoom call. Like I've lost the

29
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,320

Speaker 1: I don't know if that's the same for you. You

34
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: still have a little bit of magic when you select

35
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: your outfits. It depends with who I have to There

36
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: have been some zoom calls where I pretended to look

37
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 1: like an adult. I have to admit, oh wow, so

Speaker 1: what kind of fashions are we talking about? When you

40
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: have to elevate the game for a zoom CALLA like

41
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: like like a like a polo or a button up.

42
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 1: Oh shit, you know what. I have not worn a

43
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: button up on ironically since before the quarantine. I don't

44
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,519
Speaker 1: know why, buttons have on a shirt have become my

45
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: arch nemesis. I'm like, way for me, Satan, not today,

46
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: nasty T shirt. I hear you, I hear you. And

47
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: I had a couple of shirts that actually look like you. Ever.

48
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: I have some shirts that look good on top but

49
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: look like ship and like towards the bottom, and I

50
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: and I was able to use those, which made me

51
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: so happy because like, yeah, it fits off top, but

52
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: it does not fit on the bottom. Um, So that

53
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: that made me really happy to get to use those

54
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 1: that I've just been sitting in my closet pretending like

55
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: my body will one day change. I'm loving it. I'm

56
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 1: loving everything from the chest up. What kind of porn

57
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: you're looking for? The vibe right now? You know you

58
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: asked that because I sleepover, naughty sleepover, naughty sleepover. I

59
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: love when two friends are like we are friends then

60
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh wholesome. That's the most adorable porn

61
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:51,119
Speaker 1: preference I've ever heard. Thank you, Thank you so much. Yeah,

62
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: I mean I've always I think it's because I didn't

63
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: I was a chunky. Um, I was just say I

64
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: was chunky, and I was not hitting my I didn't

65
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: hit my sexual prime to like twenty two or twenty three,

66
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: um or I guess do even anything remotely sexual till

67
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: and so I think there's always a part of my

68
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: life that's like wait, people in like high school like

69
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: got to like do stuff that's so that blows my

70
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: mind right right right right, make enough for lost time?

71
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: So um, yeah, I don't know. Not A sleepover is

72
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 1: always cute to me. I like this. So the so

73
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: the format of the scene is always the same. It's

74
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 1: a sleepover. It's starting off friendly like not not going there,

75
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: and then like spin the bottle kind of thing, people

76
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 1: are just kissing, right, that's how it starts. Oh yeah,

77
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: oh yeah. Well, and gay porn has a really interesting slant,

78
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 1: like there's a there's also there's a lot of homophobia

79
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: in gay porn, which is both problematic but also exciting,

80
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: you know, because there's that little twinge of like this

81
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: isn't gay, right, or like we can't force our gayness,

82
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: but we can't help but act on it. And it's

83
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: it's it's a really weird thing that a lot of

84
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: gay porn and involves itself in Well, I think that's

85
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: like sort of the interesting thing of that porn reveals

86
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: about the psyche because on some level that people making

87
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,359
Speaker 1: it are kind of aware of these taboos or dynamics,

88
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: you know, within our culture to like sort of exploit

89
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 1: to make them. That's why I'm like right now, I'm like,

90
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: why the fund is there so much like step sister

91
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 1: step brothers ship on the stream, I'm like, what how

92
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: many families and you just wanted to suck your older stepsister.

93
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: It's well, it's like remember how they did the whole

94
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: thing about where all the different pockets of the country

95
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: which porn is popular, like which porn searches are and

96
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: it's like in the most racist places, most popular porn

97
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 1: is like oh black on white, and then you know

98
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: in these other places it's like step sisters brother and

99
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:05,239
Speaker 1: it's like regionally. I would love to know what's happening.

100
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: I mean, poor hunt. Porn Hub has all that information.

101
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: If if you want to know what the next Cambridge

102
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: Analytica is, is porn Hub because they got everybody. I

103
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 1: just want to know why I guess are the ones

104
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 1: that aren't as easily explained as oh, it's a racist place,

105
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 1: and so they like to google things that they think

106
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: are taboo right or be like cocked over porn or

107
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: something like that. I think a lot of the daddy

108
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: issues I think of, both straight and gay porn have

109
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: to do with like, because I think we're like the kids,

110
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: kids reaching adolescents now, or like children who grew up

111
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: in this like post two thousand eight recession or something,

112
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 1: and I think they're so they're so used to having

113
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 1: like no stability in their economic life that the thought

114
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: of someone's stable who can actually pay your bills is

115
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: like somehow been sexualized. Oh my god, spitting the hot

116
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: fire right about the feet, bro dropping the fucking moab

117
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: on us. Okay, I thought I was like, what daddy's

118
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: right now? And I think that's it. And you hear

119
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: America needs a dad, that's why. Wow. And our dad

120
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: right now is just as bad with money too, and

121
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: a stepdad. He's a stepdad, and we're waiting for our dad. Okay,

122
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: drunk stepdad who crashed his car into the tree and

123
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: he's like it's fine, Yeah, what are you talking about that?

124
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: Tree who put that there is a myth, what is

125
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: something people think it's true, you know, to be false

126
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: or just flipped that on over vice verse um. I

127
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: actually got an argument with a friend because a white friend,

128
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: because they thought that most of the Indians in the

129
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: US are Republican because so many of the famous ones

130
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: are like Bobby, It's like all the like, all the

131
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: famous political Indians are like but like most of the

132
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 1: voting base is Democrat. Is like, we're all Democrats. And

133
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: so like everybody I've interacted with across the country, I've

134
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: met like one Indian Republican and that's it. And I

135
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: don't know, but yeah, I think it was like over

136
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: seventy for Hillary or something like that. But I think

137
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: you see two because the Conservatives love to embrace a

138
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: token minority at any moment. So yeah, it's true, like

139
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: in your mind, it's like, well, politically, I'm thinking of

140
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 1: these people, but yeah, yeah, it's for the most part,

141
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: I think most people come to the United States with

142
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: it like a decent, like at least a different perspective

143
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: on how the world works when they arrive here, versus

144
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: you know, Americans who are just you know, we're in

145
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 1: this one culture that they can tally be like yeah, yeah, yeah,

146
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: I can see what this is going on here. I

147
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 1: prefer this this side over here because I think I

148
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: know where this one goes or vice versa. But anyway, yeah,

149
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 1: and I think also like are like we're not like

150
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: encouraged to like the politicians, so like the people that

151
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 1: are are kind of like outliers, I think, um, and

152
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: also like we are like we're just I think like

153
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: Indians in the US are just realizing that we do

154
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: have like political power after like gaining financial stability here

155
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 1: because it's the immigrant mentality of like the doctor, be

156
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: an engineer, get your ship together. Um. And then now

157
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: like my in Utah, all of these like Indian people

158
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: like donated to the Democratic Party to like oust this

159
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: person who was like uh who was like a Republican

160
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 1: in that seat, and they I think they were able

161
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: to do it. And I'm like fuck, yeah, dad, go off. Yeah,

162
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,079
Speaker 1: I think I think another thing that's interesting. And I

163
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: wasn't I don't know, I wasn't sure how to bring

164
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: it up. Not like that it's uncomfortable, but it was

165
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: something I was thinking about while I was, you know,

166
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: looking for DVDs to bring in to be a substitute teacher. Um.

167
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: A friend of mine works in government in Colorado, and

168
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: you know, he's been looking a lot like what's been

169
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: going on in the country, right. I think we're really

170
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: there is a moment here where a lot of people

171
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: are coming in touch with their power on some level,

172
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 1: whether that's being like I'll be more I'll stand up

173
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: more vocally for the things I believe, or I'll confront

174
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 1: injustice more head on than I used to. I won't

175
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: retreat in the face of these things. Um. But one

176
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: thing that he was mentioning is that there really is

177
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: a problem with our generation even looking at working in

178
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: government as a possibility. Right, not to say that it's

179
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 1: a good or bad thing, but he works with a

180
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: lot of these like people who are of the same

181
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: mindset that you know, the elected officials. That's not going

182
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: to be a problem. Those voices will naturally come out there.

183
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: I think most people would. You know, they look at

184
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: that as being the cool thing of being like front

185
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: and like being an elected official and having like this

186
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: pulpit to preach from. But there's also like this thing

187
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: of like the bureaucracy of it all too because at

188
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 1: a local level. These people are also doing having the

189
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: kinds of ideas of like, well, what do we do

190
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: with this budget surplus? And if there aren't as many

191
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: people who are in the same like social justice mindset

192
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: and things like that, those ideas can fail to materialize

193
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 1: an effective way because of all the you know, all

194
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 1: the hands that are on it on its way to

195
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 1: becoming a reality. So it's just something interesting because they're saying, like,

196
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: especially with gen Z more than millennials even, are completely

197
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: like they don't even give it. Like the idea of

198
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: working in government at all in any capacity is like

199
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: a total like nonstarter. Mm hmm. That's that could actually

200
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: like work against us, is what you're saying. Yeah, or

201
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: you know, like the kinds of because at the end

202
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: of the day, like sure, the policies will be there,

203
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: but then who are the people really putting them to work?

204
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: And are they doing it faithfully? And are there enough

205
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: people who understand what the intent is of these laws

206
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: or whatever to work it out? But you know, I

207
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: just like fuck the system, Yeah I'm gonna do or

208
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: you look at like, oh, I work for the government,

209
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: Like that's literally how I feel like I would think

210
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: about in my head, I'm like, okay, but put on

211
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: my tie and not smoke weed. That's like that's pcent.

212
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: When I was a kid, for some I don't know

213
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: if my parents ever explicitly said it, like they definitely

214
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: wanted me to be an engineer, um, but they like

215
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: they I don't think they ever explicitly said it, but

216
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 1: somehow I knew. I was like, if I go to

217
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 1: the military, if I go to some government positions, I'm

218
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: going to be responsible for killing people. And like I

219
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 1: need to say the funk away from that, Like I

220
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,320
Speaker 1: just knew as a kid. I was like, I'm not

221
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: going anywhere near that. That is not for me. And

222
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: like I there are plenty of people who um, yeah,

223
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 1: like you said, who would like actually like change the

224
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 1: system from within that are being like that just never

225
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: it's never an option for them, which it's protective, but no. Yeah,

226
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: And I have like friends who you know, like work

227
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: specifically on things like healthcare, like for a county or

228
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: something or a state, and they know like what healthcare

229
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,079
Speaker 1: would mean to the people of like of their county

230
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: or state. But then they have other but who are

231
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: still looking at the whole concept of it completely wrong.

232
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 1: And then you end up being like an isolated voice

233
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: in a sea of like this monolithic thinking. Um. So yeah,

234
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 1: not to say that like we have a duty to

235
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,839
Speaker 1: do it, but it is interesting to think about, is like,

236
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: as much as we want all these changes too, like

237
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: there there really needs to be a way that we

238
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: are at the levers at at as many points of

239
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: contact as possible, because I think that's the only way

240
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 1: to optimize a lot of the change. But but I

241
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: don't think it's you know, that's one way of looking

242
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: at it, because I think at the end of the day,

243
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: people are going to do what they want to do

244
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 1: and engage with a system of government that they want

245
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: to or don't. But it's I thought it was an

246
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: interesting idea. It's like it's like really short term versus

247
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 1: long term. Short term like we have to we have

248
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: to have people in there now to like stop the

249
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: damage of people dying now. Long term we have to

250
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: like totally revamp the system, right, because it's like, if

251
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: you're signing up for a life in like any sort

252
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: of government employe and you want to do good, you're

253
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: just signing up for a life of extreme frustration at

254
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: every single turn. And like, yeah, we're how are you

255
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 1: able to balance that? And at what point does it

256
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,439
Speaker 1: become worth it versus because it's like, are you it's

257
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: one way to look at it. Are you working for

258
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,599
Speaker 1: the government. Are you trying to change something internally? And

259
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 1: I think it's a dangerous game to even think you can,

260
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: because God help me, I tried getting up in the system.

261
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: We could do something and I'm like nope. But I

262
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: think I just think just very practically right, like, sure

263
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: a law is put in place, but then those regulations

264
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: have to be written, and then someone's going to have

265
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: to build a website and communicate that to constituents. And

266
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: if those like the people who are in those visions

267
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 1: like aren't up to scruff, then like people are gonna

268
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, what the funk was that program that

269
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: didn't work? Or this is that or the other. So

270
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 1: just just a thinking, just something I think about in

271
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 1: my in my bed at night after drinking a full

272
00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 1: gallon of hose water. Yeah, as I'm having yeah, like

273
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: a weird fever dream from like Giardia. Oh, like dude,

274
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: they are there enough? Are there enough? Who was being bureaucrats? Funny?

275
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: Keep this government going? Or what I'm like, how do

276
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: we burn it? Do we burn it down? And we

277
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: like smolder it down from the inside from all funked up.

278
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 1: So pardon me, guys, blame the l e w ps. Uh.

279
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: Do not also, do not look at those water reports. Okay,

280
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: oh god, I don't want to how much cryptosporidium I've ingested?

281
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: All Right, we're gonna come back real quick. But before

282
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: we do that, let's take a quick break and we're back.

283
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: What is something you think is underrated? Teresa? Um? I

284
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: think vakleff Hovel is underrated. Um, I've been screaming about

285
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: him for a while, but I think that we don't

286
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: study enough about access stories of you know, human rights

287
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 1: and democracy in um foreign countries, and I think for

288
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 1: a reason, you know, patriotism and propaganda. But I've I mean,

289
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: most people kind of know about him through his UM

290
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 1: peace efforts, but I first learned about him through uh

291
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: studying screenwriting at n y U because we read one

292
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: of his plays. So he was a playwright in the

293
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 1: Czech Republic. Well he actually created the Czech Republic, but

294
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: he was there during the Communist USSR time time, and

295
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: he used his plays to sort of you know, kind

296
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: of like the way comedians do, just push um his

297
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: ideas out. But it got so popular that he became

298
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: a dissident and his plays were banned, and then he

299
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: started um distributing his like they're like one act plays,

300
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: a lot of them, so they're short. He distributed them

301
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 1: via like the Just People, and people would put them

302
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: on in their living rooms to spread the ideas. And

303
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: these weren't ideas like propaganda that it was just like

304
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: free thought. Like he really pushed the idea of like

305
00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 1: critical thinking and free thought against the communist regime. And

306
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: he um ended up leading a peaceful protests. Well, you know,

307
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: people still got hurt, but overall it's like a success

308
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: story because it was the most gentle revolution. I think

309
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 1: it was like eighty nine in UM Czechoslovakia, where one

310
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,479
Speaker 1: day they did a general strike with seventy of the

311
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 1: country doing the general strike, and it worked because you know,

312
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 1: everybody thinks with money, so the communists let them have

313
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: fairy elections. He established the Czech Republic, became the president,

314
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: and then went on to continue fighting for human rights

315
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 1: and democracy and want a peace prize. And it all

316
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,199
Speaker 1: started because he was a playwright. Yeah, so and we

317
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 1: just don't. I feel like we think of, um, a

318
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 1: lot of those Eastern European countries as like socialists. In America,

319
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 1: we're almost pushed against them. But he literally defeated communism. Um.

320
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 1: But yeah, to American standards, I would say they probably

321
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: fall on the socialist spectrum. So I think that's why

322
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 1: we don't study that in our school. That's fascinating. That

323
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 1: is first of all, best underrated in such a long time.

324
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 1: Not to not to ship talk anybody else's underrated, No,

325
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: but that's a that's amazing and that's such so interesting.

326
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: Like you mentioned comedians in the United States, I feel

327
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: like the thing that most comedians do with their success

328
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: is just become Republicans, like start trying to protect their

329
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 1: wealth um and that. Yeah, that's so it's almost impossible

330
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 1: to imagine. Yeah, totally, we all aspire to become Republicans,

331
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: like tre and I are actually like running together. Has

332
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 1: there been an example of an artist in the United

333
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:56,360
Speaker 1: States who has like done something that politically relevant and successful,

334
00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: because isn't there another like current and we have the

335
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,639
Speaker 1: version where yeah, we got the dystopian version. Well, I

336
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,160
Speaker 1: think the difference for him was he he didn't um,

337
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: combine the forms, like he was still a playwright and

338
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: in his place, they weren't. I mean, I guess depending

339
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 1: on what side you're on. The Communist could say it's propaganda,

340
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: but they just felt like, you know, intrins had intrinsic

341
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 1: artistic value as place that explored all points of views,

342
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,479
Speaker 1: and you could, you know, you could watch it and

343
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: decide your own. You could decide you like communism after

344
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,239
Speaker 1: watching it. Like his goal wasn't too uh change your

345
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,880
Speaker 1: point of view. His goal was for freedom of expression.

346
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: So then when he became a politician, he was doing

347
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 1: that job. So I like that he wasn't like and

348
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: now I'll just use this to sell my place. But

349
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 1: if people are curious, I did buy his UM because

350
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 1: we read a one act called Protests in school that

351
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 1: I really liked. So I ended up buying the full

352
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: collection and I have that It's only fifteen pages. I

353
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 1: haven't scanned. So if anyone wants to, yeah me, I'll

354
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: email you the PDF. I don't want to post it

355
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 1: because it is still like you know, copyrights, but this

356
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 1: is educational, so I'll send it to you of email me. UM.

357
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 1: But yeah, it kind of um speaks to the whole.

358
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 1: Uh Like at the beginning of these recent protests where

359
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 1: people were arguing within the left about what to do

360
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: to be right. Um, like you know when people posted

361
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,120
Speaker 1: the black squares and then they started yelling at each other.

362
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 1: So his that place sort of speaks to It's like

363
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 1: two people talking but they're both anti communists, but they

364
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: kind of get into this nuance of like, well, I'm

365
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: doing this because I have wealth and I can't totally

366
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: show my cards, but don't worry, I'm on the right side.

367
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 1: Like there's a lot of that sort of Oh my god,

368
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: that sounds v relevant and it's funny. He's he's a

369
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 1: funny guy. Uh. Zelinski is the guy was thinking of

370
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 1: in the modern sense. It was like an actual like

371
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: Ukraine comedian who who became like the head of state, uh,

372
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: who we all now know about because right, yeah exactly.

373
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: And I don't I don't think he's like super progressive necessarily.

374
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: Um Like, it's not like he was their finest artists

375
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: who people were going to study in universities anyways and

376
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: became their leader. But still like they I don't know,

377
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: there's something about American culture that, um, up to this

378
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: point in our history has not allowed like that crossover

379
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 1: from like progressive, thoughtful, artistically valid artists over to the

380
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 1: political sphere. It's just been uh Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ronald

381
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 1: Reagan and Charlton Heston. I think it might be because

382
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: we put so much emphasis on monetary success, and to

383
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: become successful you have to make a lot of money,

384
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: and like that usually dilutes the art. Not always, okay,

385
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,120
Speaker 1: I know it's not always true, but often it dilutes

386
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 1: the artistic value. So by the time you get to

387
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 1: that point, you do dilute the message a bit. Whereas

388
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 1: and I'm not a communist, I'm an American. Whatever you

389
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 1: guys want to say is fine, but I like money

390
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 1: to um. But I also I feel like when you

391
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: get to that level, if your only goal is money,

392
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 1: then it's going to be less about spreading ideas and

393
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: more about just keeping your wealth and your business because

394
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 1: at that point people depend on you, so it's not

395
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 1: like selfish to keep the business going. If you're paying

396
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: people's rent, you sound like a communist, But okay, Cynthia

397
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: Nixon would be like a recent example of someone who

398
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: is like attempted to do that. But I guess, yeah,

399
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 1: there's far less left leaning examples that are successful because

400
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 1: writers stupid. Yeah, well they're not. Their whole goal is

401
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 1: to take on any other character but themselves, and then

402
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: we like erased writers. So I feel like in Europe,

403
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 1: or at least back in the you know, philosophical Enlightenment days,

404
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: it was a lot more reading and focus on ideas,

405
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: and now it's all about appearances. So yeah, I mean

406
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: sin the next thing. I don't know her policies enough.

407
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: I remember when she was running, but she's famous from

408
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 1: an acting role, so it's we don't know, you know,

409
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: how she really feels as a person until she comes

410
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 1: out and says it right. Yeah, that is interesting though,

411
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 1: that that that is what our politicians are is essentially actors. Um,

412
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: it's deep. Man, just fucking nailed him. Bro. Uh, That's

413
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 1: why I'm unsuccessful in Hollywood. What is something from your

414
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,400
Speaker 1: search history that's revealing about who you are? Hilarious? Um, guys,

415
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 1: My searches three lately has been how to move to Canada,

416
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 1: how to move to Netherlands, how to we was in Germany? Um?

417
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,400
Speaker 1: And has there ever been a black writer on the Simpsons?

418
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: Those are the things that I recently searched for. There

419
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 1: hasn't been a black writer on the Simpsons. There has actually,

420
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 1: I don't think there's ever been a black woman. Michael

421
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 1: Carrington is a black writer on the Simpsons, and I'm

422
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 1: pretty sure Mark Wilmore is also. I don't know if

423
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: he's currently but I'm pretty sure he did write on

424
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:24,879
Speaker 1: the Simpsons. But anybody in those first eight seasons, I

425
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know, and I highly doubt it. Yeah,

426
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 1: but yeah, interesting you And so you're also looking at

427
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: some some cool getaway options, some cool getaways, um, some

428
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,879
Speaker 1: refugee situations because Americans have been blocked from going to

429
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: other countries anywhere. I'm not going anyway, um, but I

430
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 1: just want to be prepared because to me, like, I'm

431
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 1: not looking at it just because of what's happening right now,

432
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: because I've been black this entire time and it's been

433
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: dangerous the whole time. So I'm just like, I just think,

434
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: long term, do I want to be in And I'm

435
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 1: thinking like this because of the response that America has

436
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: had to a lot of these crises, um, and I

437
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: it just feels like overall America doesn't seem to have

438
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,919
Speaker 1: the political will at least not yet. And I'm like,

439
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: I don't know how bad it needs to get um

440
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 1: for there to be like, you know, every fucking mayor

441
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,959
Speaker 1: in America, every fucking government in America, like you know,

442
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: standing up and being like this stuff needs to be

443
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 1: passed right now. So so it's that kind of mindset,

444
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: that long term mindset that's getting me to google these things. Yeah,

445
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 1: until the class of people changes that are politics, it's

446
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 1: never going to change because we have people who are

447
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,640
Speaker 1: operating in a completely different realm of existence and their

448
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 1: antena i are are tuned to a completely different frequency

449
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: than the human beings that are their constituents. So they're

450
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: so oblivious to everything and nothing is pressing they're they're

451
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: so oblivious even in the midst of crisis, even in

452
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 1: the midst of every you one in the country becoming

453
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: enlightened to what's really going on, and they're oblivious to

454
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 1: their own bias and they're oblivious to their own ability

455
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: to like, they're still very much tied to these these

456
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 1: um the politics of six months ago, you know what

457
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,159
Speaker 1: I mean. I'm just like, like the way that the

458
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,879
Speaker 1: Los Angeles in particular has put up such a fight

459
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 1: to defunding police doing anything. It doesn't show any real

460
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: moral reconciliation. It doesn't show any real like apology, like

461
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 1: holy shit, we're sorry. Holy shit, we're racist, and so

462
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 1: are our policies. And here's what we're gonna do to

463
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 1: change it. It is an emergency. And it's like and

464
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: also everyone here is poor, um and you know, and

465
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: there's too much income inequality and we need to fix

466
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 1: it right now. What can we do? So I just

467
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 1: I just feel like, girl, I'm tired. I'm just like,

468
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: you know what, go we go somewhere that is not

469
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,719
Speaker 1: trying me mentally constantly. Did you find out is there,

470
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: like what's the easiest place to move to? None of them, Yeah,

471
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: none of them a time getting into Holland Texas. None

472
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 1: of them are easy. None of them are easy. My

473
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: my husband has some family in Canada, which is why

474
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:21,920
Speaker 1: it's eat that's the first option. But otherwise it's like,

475
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: you know, none of them are easy. And I don't

476
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: have any skills, like a television writer in Hollywood, like

477
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,479
Speaker 1: a lot of these high for high skilled workers. You know,

478
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: you can if you get a job there. You have

479
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: to get a job. And also it's just like this

480
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: is like a very I'm very privileged, Like I don't

481
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 1: have ties, I don't have children, I don't have things

482
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 1: that can make me that can make it even harder

483
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: to move. Um, but it's hard to move anyway, It's so.

484
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 1: And I just started looking into it, especially when you

485
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,199
Speaker 1: look at that COVID map of North America and you

486
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 1: look at the like that border wall up north, They're like, bro,

487
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 1: you must be out your mind as in here, right,

488
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 1: And I totally get it. I totally get it. You know,

489
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 1: I'm an immigrant to America, so I get it. But

490
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 1: those were the days h probably wanted to get in

491
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: here instead of the funk out uh the Mexican border. Also, yeah,

492
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 1: they yes, they have said no to us as well.

493
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: I mean not officially though, right Yeah, they're definitely YEA

494
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,959
Speaker 1: border border towns are like please, yeah, and as they

495
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 1: should be, you know, as they should be. America has

496
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: has a completely incompetent response to this crisis. And if anything,

497
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: I'm just like, you know, I don't know, man, Like

498
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: when when Trump won in sixteen, it wasn't to me

499
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: like a Trump thing. It was just like an America thing.

500
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 1: Like I didn't look at like I still That's why

501
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 1: I would still leave, you know, even if Joe Biden wins.

502
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 1: You know, this is an American problem, Like this is

503
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 1: not Trump individually, and the response to this crisis has

504
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 1: shown how incompetent our systems are, you know, structurally, foundationally,

505
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 1: how racist they are, and how hard Like an executive

506
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: the other day, I was pitching a show about a

507
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 1: black family and um, you know, one of the things

508
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: that I was talking about was like, how they're gonna

509
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: how they experienced racism. And he's like, but is that

510
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 1: going to be relevant? You know, because the world has changed.

511
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: And the thing is like this person very innocently said

512
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 1: it because they don't realize, they don't realize really and

513
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: and it is like that to me is so quintessential

514
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 1: of the American problem. Well, we had that, we had

515
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: that march. So isn't it that we had the march?

516
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: People saw the video were painted Black Lives Matter on

517
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: some streets. That was done by a company that cuts

518
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 1: trailers for movies, right, it was that one on Hollywood Boulevard.

519
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: And then they could a deal with the city where

520
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: they were like and can you can power wash that

521
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 1: ship off in twenty four hours? And it's like this

522
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: was just a branding. Yeah, it's yea. The people on

523
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: that company were like, you know, we didn't we didn't

524
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 1: publicize it, but you know we we paid for that

525
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 1: to be We paid for that. There there's an article

526
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: in the Atlantic that people should check out called The

527
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: Three Weeks That Changed Everything. That is by a amateur pilot,

528
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 1: and it compares it tries to do like I guess

529
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: every time there's a plane crash, the National Transportation Safety

530
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: Board does like a deep investigation, and so it tries

531
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 1: to do that same sort of investigation into what went

532
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 1: wrong with coronavirus and the American response, and it's it's

533
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: pretty enlightening. It does suggest that it really is basically,

534
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 1: we had all the systems in place, we just had

535
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 1: the wrong administration. In no way read that. Yeah, it's

536
00:30:55,760 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: worth it's worth checking out. Uh what is a myth?

537
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: What's something people think is true? You know, to be

538
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: false service versa Oh god, everything is so serious because

539
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 1: like she's so funny and she everything seriously, Um, dude,

540
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 1: billionaire fragility is so real. So the myth for me

541
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 1: is like billionaire that billionaires earned their money. They did

542
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: not earn all their money. They exploited other people's labor,

543
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 1: intellectual physical They have vast schemes of not paying taxes,

544
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 1: which allows them to accrue that amount of money their investments.

545
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 1: Then doubled down on that. They didn't earn their billions.

546
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 1: Maybe a few million, Yeah, but like getting into the

547
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 1: billion bezos trillionaire territory. Stop with that. They earned it.

548
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it goes one day, I'm gonna really figure

549
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 1: out this new fangled I don't know, like whatever project

550
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 1: you've got your working on, it's not gonna succeed, Okay,

551
00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 1: nobody wants to fund that. Yeah, the billions though, you know,

552
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: it would be so sweet. That's why I want to

553
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 1: go easy on them because one day, and I don't

554
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 1: want people go hard. Don't go hard on me because

555
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: I could be a billionaire too. So that's why that's

556
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 1: why I praised my corporate overlords. Shout out to bezos

557
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: that worked for a shockingly long amount of time, like

558
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 1: and I do think that history books will look back

559
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: and be like, wow, people were just cool with like

560
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: these five people having all every their money like yeah,

561
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: and just robbing from them. But yeah, you know, and

562
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 1: it's funny because it happened before. Like I love looking

563
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: at these old photos of like the robber barons there

564
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: giant mustaches and like like if billionaires just had to

565
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 1: dress like like curly mustache top hat, we'd all be like, hey,

566
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: that guy's fucking gets way too much money. Like if

567
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: we had all the covered in soot and then every

568
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: every millionaire had to wear a top hat, it would

569
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 1: be a lot clearer the top. Yeah, it's it's there,

570
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: skising it with ath leisure. Jeff Bezels always looks like

571
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 1: he's like coming back from a hike, and so we're like, well, okay, yeah, yeah,

572
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: he's He's one of the people we just need to get.

573
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: We just need to normalize looking at billionaires as criminal activity.

574
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: That's really the difference because right now we look upon

575
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 1: a billionaire, go damn, look at that. That would be

576
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:29,719
Speaker 1: tight unless they spend half their time giving their money away,

577
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: like just actively giving you more than that. If you

578
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 1: have billions of dollars, you're good with ten percent away.

579
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 1: But I think we also like the discourse and be

580
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: like these people are stealing from everyone, um and they're

581
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 1: and like you know, remember when the fucking Panama papers

582
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 1: come out We're like, okay, so rich people have like

583
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 1: sucked the fucking earth dry and then they hide their

584
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 1: cash like in other places, so no one can ever

585
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: touch it because they're like fuck you mind, you can

586
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 1: just die for due to lack of resources. And but

587
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 1: it's still like, oh man, so cool man have like

588
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 1: nine jets and ship. It's like, no, bro, this is

589
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 1: criminal ship. I want to space tank. What's it called?

590
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 1: Space tank? Tesla tank, h cyber truck, cybertruck, cyber tank.

591
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,839
Speaker 1: I like space tank. I mean cybertruck sounds lame too,

592
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 1: But I remember it was in someone's uber or lift

593
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 1: or whatever it was, I don't know, mess and and

594
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 1: he was this guy, the driver was telling me all

595
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 1: about how he's saving up for the cyber truck, and

596
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 1: I'm just like, no, pull over, pull over, bro, pull over,

597
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:41,879
Speaker 1: let's talk. You don't need a cyber truck, nobody, why

598
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,319
Speaker 1: are you saving up? I mean that's the other thing,

599
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: like we buy into this crap, right It's like you're

600
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,839
Speaker 1: driving for lift right now. Like that's fine, but like

601
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: clearly you're not in a cyber truck situation right now. Yeah,

602
00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 1: And the dissonance of having your belongings in something and

603
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: them not being poorly rendered in uh sixteen bit video

604
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 1: game is like it's gonna look really weird in the

605
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,839
Speaker 1: in the bed of that thing. Yeah. Yeah. The fragility

606
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 1: of the people who have power is pretty shocking and

607
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: just constantly on display these days with the way the

608
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:24,439
Speaker 1: police have responded to requests that they because they know

609
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,799
Speaker 1: how they know how bad, they know how bad they are,

610
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And they they're like the

611
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: second everyone is on the same page realizing how bad

612
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 1: this is, then I am in I'm not in a

613
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: good place. So that's why, you know, the same thing

614
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 1: with like the police, it only used to be a

615
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 1: little number of activists and they could deal with that.

616
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah's you know what, mainstream media hasn't caught

617
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: up yet, so we're good and like we can still laugh,

618
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: laugh and smile and act like we're working hand in

619
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:57,440
Speaker 1: hand with the community. But like when the public sentiment changes,

620
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 1: look now they're like, oh fuck, the lights are on

621
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 1: and they're seeing this ship for what it is, and

622
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 1: now like it's just like the lamest defenses, like self victimizing,

623
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 1: like crying at a podium. Because of the work they

624
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 1: do for the communities like it's just bullshit. And I

625
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: think it's the same thing with billionaires. They know it's

626
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,359
Speaker 1: like a pyramid scheme where they're just siphoning up all

627
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,319
Speaker 1: this revenue from people, and they're like, man, one day

628
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: they might figure out that. Like I'm sitting in an

629
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: office and they're breaking their backs out there, but I've

630
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 1: got like a hundred thousand of them doing at the

631
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 1: same time. So I'm like laughing my ass off. And

632
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 1: when people begin to actually put that ship together then

633
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 1: and be like, oh, well, hold on now, because I

634
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 1: started this out of a out of a garage back

635
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,200
Speaker 1: when you know your parents could give you a loan

636
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: to buy a house to start a business out of Okay,

637
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.

638
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: And we're back, Okay, So let's move on to parlor.

639
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 1: The coolest app out right now for for people for

640
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: conservatives who just want who are concerned about freedom of

641
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: speech and sense that this takes signal and it takes

642
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 1: it to in the opposite, the opposite direction. Um, yeah,

643
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: so you know right now, obviously the conservatives favorite sport

644
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: is yelling obscene racist nonsense and then claim censorship on

645
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 1: a privately owned website that is not the government. But okay, censorship,

646
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 1: Uh so that you know, social media tends to be

647
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,280
Speaker 1: like the last place where these like right wing ghouls

648
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: and goblins can engage in their trolling and just overall

649
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 1: poning of the Libs, and but they always find themselves

650
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: on the wrong side of Twitter bands, you know, and

651
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 1: then that's why they was like, you're being censored just

652
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:59,439
Speaker 1: because I'm not even dog whistling, I'm bull horning anti semitism,

653
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: like with these memes I'm posting, I'm just saying it

654
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 1: out loud. I'm like, George Soros is a Jew who

655
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: controls black people to kill whites. Okay, send, I'm like

656
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 1: that is not a dog whistle. That is not a

657
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 1: whistle of any story. That is a very very aggressive

658
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 1: yard sign. Actually, so they all these cries of censorship

659
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 1: has you know, led people to be like essentially, especially

660
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 1: from I think the left, even saying what rip like

661
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,399
Speaker 1: what conservatives say to people when like they have when

662
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 1: they criticize, Like if a progressive criticize the country is like, well,

663
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 1: if you hate it so much, why do you go

664
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: start your own country? Why don't you leave and start

665
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 1: your own country. So, uh, this is kind of a

666
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 1: logical extension where they're right is, now, why don't you

667
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: go start your own Twitter? Then why don't you go

668
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,360
Speaker 1: off do your own thing, and you could just be

669
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 1: you guys, just do your own just not bother anybody,

670
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 1: And they did Hence Parlor Um and just reading their

671
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 1: about page is fantastic. This gives you an idea that

672
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 1: this is such a safe space. It says Parlor is

673
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: a non bio ist, free speech driven entity. Our goal

674
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 1: is to offer the world a platform that protects users rights,

675
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: supports publishers, and builds online communities. Parlor aims to empower

676
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 1: users to control their their social experience. Users can be

677
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: responsible to engage content as they see fit. We are

678
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: not regulators. We are on our governors. We are a community.

679
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: Parlor accepts your right to express your thoughts, opinions, and

680
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: ideals online. Okay, so remember that they accept your right

681
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 1: to see an unlike Twitter. Um, yeah, it just sounds

682
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: like a terrible place to be honest, just like Twitter. There,

683
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's like not that Twitter is a

684
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:40,359
Speaker 1: fun place to be, but it's just there's I mean,

685
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: and there's been a number of apps like this that

686
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,359
Speaker 1: have cropped up in the past as well, and they

687
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,239
Speaker 1: all sort of tend to be done away with kind

688
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: of quickly. I remember there was one called, like do

689
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 1: you remember this is like a couple of years ago,

690
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,800
Speaker 1: but it was called like the Great American App. Sorry,

691
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,359
Speaker 1: I unplugged my headphone. What would you say? There's Oh,

692
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: there was something called I think it was let Me

693
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,319
Speaker 1: Double Chuck, but it was I think it was literally

694
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 1: called the Great American App. That was like another conservative

695
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: you know, just a place where people can be racist

696
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 1: towards each other all day long. I thought that was Facebook.

697
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 1: The thing is like they don't even really need their

698
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 1: own because they're already doing like I think they really

699
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 1: wanted to though, you know what I mean, because the

700
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 1: thing is sort of wait a minute, but like wait,

701
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,759
Speaker 1: The Great America App includes ride wait times for your

702
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 1: favorite rides, an interacting guy, an app though six flags

703
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: right in the wave into the future. Um okay, so

704
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,359
Speaker 1: it's called it's called the Great America was the name

705
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: of the app. I think it no longer exists. All

706
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: that to say, there have been attempts at this before

707
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,799
Speaker 1: and it never works, and it's always really embarrassing right,

708
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,799
Speaker 1: and the problem is right. And this is where we

709
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 1: begin to see what the relationship is of conservatism in

710
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:06,359
Speaker 1: this country to you know, I guess the rest of society.

711
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 1: Um So when they have their own private party, they

712
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 1: go and they're like, oh, finally they go, and their

713
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 1: whole thing is like, well, hey, there's just like I think,

714
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:16,920
Speaker 1: like four thousand people here, there's not that many people

715
00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:20,880
Speaker 1: on here, and everyone is just singularly all maga minded,

716
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: which means there's no libs to fucking pone or to troll.

717
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 1: To the point where this is in this political article,

718
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,120
Speaker 1: they say, quote, the magnification problem is so bad that

719
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 1: CEO and founder John Matt's has openly begged progressive pundits

720
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: to join the platform, offering a progressive bounty quote unquote

721
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,320
Speaker 1: of twenty dollars to any left wing influencer with a

722
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,399
Speaker 1: following of fifty or more users on Twitter who make

723
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:51,840
Speaker 1: an account. He's begging, he's gonna pay, as they see

724
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 1: libs to come on. So they so his like sad,

725
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 1: sad audience has someone to like argue with. That's where

726
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 1: we're at. Will can I pay you to come over

727
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,880
Speaker 1: to play with my child? Is that okay? Because I

728
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 1: know Mike. No one likes to play with Mike. I

729
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 1: will pay you to come over, uh and then maybe

730
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 1: he'll just throw it at you can I Okay, I

731
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 1: was trying to find it. I can't find it. But um,

732
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:21,240
Speaker 1: there was somebody who got on Parlor early two people

733
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: and they made like the real Candice Owens and the

734
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 1: real Tommy larn accounts before Tommy and Candice got on there,

735
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 1: and I was trying to find it. But it's so funny, dude.

736
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 1: They're like progressive people who like just made those accounts

737
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 1: and they had like sixty followers immediately. It's but that

738
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 1: is wonderful. So it's I think it's all to say that,

739
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 1: like their experiment is backfiring, you know what I mean?

740
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:50,240
Speaker 1: Like they even one of these people who's describing Parlor

741
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 1: in comparison to Twitter, Uh, this guy Will Chamberlain and

742
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: just just trash. He says. The question is not pure engagement.

743
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 1: The question is influence. Twitter is interesting because there's so

744
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: many people it in people that can be influenced. Parlor

745
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 1: is not that. So this idea that it's like, so

746
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 1: you need to go to a larger platform to influence people.

747
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:14,480
Speaker 1: But they aren't interested in your bullshit and therefore cannot

748
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: be swayed. So your solution is to keep saying the

749
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:22,880
Speaker 1: thing that is only repulsing people, like the loop is

750
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 1: really flawed. Um much like any kind of you know,

751
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 1: shitty ideology. But it's really like, in a way, I'm like,

752
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: I can't believe some people have to begin connecting the

753
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: dots on some level, right because I mean not that

754
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 1: I count them to think be that critical, but the

755
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 1: maga set has to know, like they can't go beyond

756
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 1: the cis het set in terms of people they can

757
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 1: bring in, So like, what what's gonna give here? It's

758
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 1: just it's like it's interesting because like I think for

759
00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:00,080
Speaker 1: people on the left who are like influencers or activists

760
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 1: or whatever, like we are fighting for people, and it

761
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 1: seems like these people just like very literally are just

762
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: fighting against people. So if you like completely disengage and

763
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 1: don't give them attention, which is what everybody is like

764
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 1: saying to do. With gun Girl and Tommy larn it's

765
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:20,320
Speaker 1: like they're literally just making money being ship bags because

766
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,399
Speaker 1: they know that they can make money doing that and

767
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 1: culture they can get a rise, they'll make money, and

768
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 1: so it's it's like it's more evil than the people

769
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 1: who like actually believe that ship, because it's like, oh,

770
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 1: you're literally just doing this for money. It's not even

771
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 1: some idea that you're right, um, and and so when

772
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 1: you remove their source of income, then they like they

773
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,360
Speaker 1: have nothing. So it's like, oh, it's just very clearly

774
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 1: painting a picture that you are only like adversarial and

775
00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 1: are not part of a community that's fighting for a

776
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:55,440
Speaker 1: greater good. Because like if you take what happened with

777
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,720
Speaker 1: like my Miloonopolis like back in the day, like people

778
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 1: just stopped engaging with him and he kind of had

779
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 1: to disappear like completely d platform, lost everything, and you

780
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:08,880
Speaker 1: should because you can't. You shouldn't be able to profit

781
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,839
Speaker 1: off of hate like that. And I think to your point,

782
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:15,279
Speaker 1: you know, like right wing celebrity is just built on

783
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,839
Speaker 1: unsustainable ground to begin with, because like you say, like

784
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: you gain notoriety by saying provocative ship that is on

785
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 1: the fringes of acceptable discourse or you know, a public

786
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:31,239
Speaker 1: discourse to an audience that is only seeing like destruction,

787
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 1: Like they go there because it's like break some ship,

788
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 1: I want to see, funk it up. There's no interesting

789
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:43,239
Speaker 1: growth absolutely zero interesting growth. It's pure destruction, which is

790
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 1: just like the logical pivot for powerless people is the

791
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 1: next best thing is if you can't build, then you

792
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 1: can destroy, because then at least you can feel some

793
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 1: power in the destruction of something. So when when your

794
00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:00,840
Speaker 1: celebrity is built on something so like you know, chaotic,

795
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 1: you're naturally just gets you ostracized from the mainstream. Yet

796
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 1: they need the whole thing is like their existence is

797
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,319
Speaker 1: purely built on just being in opposition to whatever they

798
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 1: perceive is the mainstream. So it's just like yeah, like

799
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 1: if your whole complaint about a site is that there

800
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: aren't enough people to troll, then like on your own site,

801
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,000
Speaker 1: then you were never interested in freedom of speech to

802
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 1: begin with. You know what I mean, what are you doing, Like,

803
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,799
Speaker 1: how are you spending your time just explaining to people

804
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 1: who agree with them why you shouldn't care about other people?

805
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:36,080
Speaker 1: Just boring very I do just want to because I'm

806
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:39,319
Speaker 1: looking at the basic rules of parlor or listened in

807
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,040
Speaker 1: the dark, and I will just I mean just a

808
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 1: quick well, well, unlike the mental organization in parlor, you

809
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,399
Speaker 1: cannot threaten to kill anyone in the comments section, that's

810
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:56,239
Speaker 1: not in the t os for MENSA. That's why they

811
00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:58,040
Speaker 1: kept threatening to kill me and then and no one

812
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 1: will get killed out kicked out. They kept starting to

813
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,919
Speaker 1: kill you. There was like a guy that would repeatedly

814
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 1: just like yeah, NonStop, and and they you should you

815
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:14,440
Speaker 1: should have been on parlor parlor. You're safer on parlor

816
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 1: on parlor, and then that MENSA doesn't that look at

817
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:24,320
Speaker 1: I mean something supremises organization. But that's another story. But

818
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,400
Speaker 1: but the rules for parlor are your user name cannot

819
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: be obscene, like come dumpster. Like they had to write that,

820
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 1: like like what's the most obscene thing I could think of?

821
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: When he said come dumpster in there, like come comb dumpster?

822
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 1: Can you what about compster? Yeah? Yeah, what about? What about?

823
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 1: What if your come dumpster is your last name? If

824
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:53,919
Speaker 1: you're Michael cum dumpster. No, pornography doesn't matter. Who what where?

825
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:58,799
Speaker 1: When well Ted cruises out? Ted cruises out, He's not

826
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 1: gonna be on parlor? Were the servantive uncle wrote this

827
00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:06,240
Speaker 1: in what realmdud? You know? Why okay? Because you so okay?

828
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:07,719
Speaker 1: Do you know the other one? What was the other

829
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 1: one that said feces h? There's something they had to

830
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: separate that, Yes, this is another one. When you disagree

831
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 1: with someone pushing pictures of your fecal matter in the

832
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: comments section will not be tolerated, but matter someone else.

833
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:26,879
Speaker 1: I like that. They're like, not yours. I'm like, okay,

834
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 1: this is my this is my friend. Yeah, yeah, well

835
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,919
Speaker 1: I think this is the thing. A lot of leftists

836
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: and progressive trolls signed up in numbers also because you

837
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 1: know the trolls patrolling. No matter what side you're on,

838
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:45,800
Speaker 1: you need each other or else. You just what is life?

839
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:49,279
Speaker 1: And a lot of people were like they were they

840
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 1: were like immediately kicked out, and so they were They're like, okay,

841
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 1: cool free speech thing here. You're like, just because we

842
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,200
Speaker 1: come in here to argue with the thing, which is

843
00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 1: what people wanted already. But I'm sure there are people

844
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: doing like the pig ball poop image. They only take

845
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:10,160
Speaker 1: one one type of ship posting. Okay again, it's just

846
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,400
Speaker 1: like that. I mean, I know that we've been just

847
00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:16,080
Speaker 1: but like this time last summer, we were doing this

848
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,360
Speaker 1: to the Jeremy Renner app, and now we're doing it

849
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:22,600
Speaker 1: to fucking the most evil conservative apple. This is the

850
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 1: same way that the Jeremy Renner app was was taken off,

851
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,720
Speaker 1: was with these with these exact tactics and that ship.

852
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:33,800
Speaker 1: If we could take Renter down, take Tarler down, everybody,

853
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,640
Speaker 1: And it was like launched in. The Jeremy Renner app

854
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 1: was meant to be a place to do fun things

855
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 1: and then they got taken Jeremy Render. I mean we

856
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 1: we talked about it basically all last summer. But like

857
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,960
Speaker 1: the Jeremy Render app, you could buy stars, so you

858
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: were giving Jeremy Renner money so that Jeremy Renner would

859
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: see your comment, and then you could also give stars

860
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 1: to other users. But they other you like you're still

861
00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 1: just giving Jeremy Rennery Infinity loops. It's okay, he was

862
00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:13,759
Speaker 1: Renner Apps gone, let's do it to Parlor done. I

863
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,960
Speaker 1: mean parlor. It's just pretty chill, you know. Like they say,

864
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,320
Speaker 1: the biggest complaint is it feels like a Maga rally,

865
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 1: and that's from their own users, and they're like, yeah,

866
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:25,160
Speaker 1: I get it. So it's sweaty and like it's an

867
00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:29,080
Speaker 1: old man ran getting corona. As we speak somehow through

868
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 1: the phone mono, what is something that you think is overrated? Overrated?

869
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:38,600
Speaker 1: Oh boy, okay, I'll go here um, McDonald's. I think

870
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:44,719
Speaker 1: McDonald's is really overrated. What what? What? What triggered this response?

871
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:49,600
Speaker 1: It's just bad, it's not good. Like I just I okay,

872
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:55,399
Speaker 1: mc Fleury's are good. I think Mury Mick Fleury's are good.

873
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:57,800
Speaker 1: But I think I'm just shocked that they're able to

874
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:01,920
Speaker 1: do so well when they're burgers taste like rubber, and

875
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:05,160
Speaker 1: the fries are fine. But I mean, I don't I

876
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:08,440
Speaker 1: just don't get how it can be so successful. I

877
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:10,920
Speaker 1: really don't, you know what. It's the same thing like

878
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:14,400
Speaker 1: with the porn, right, Like it goes back to your childhood.

879
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:17,000
Speaker 1: A lot of the time, McDonald's was literally just the

880
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 1: fucking reward for ship, right, I mean, and then if

881
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,799
Speaker 1: you didn't really expand past that, like you might be

882
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 1: caught in this feedback loop of feeling mother or father's

883
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 1: love because you did good at the tea ball game

884
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:30,480
Speaker 1: and you went to McDonald's And now you're thirty eight

885
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,080
Speaker 1: and you're eating fucking you know, your big Mac, and

886
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 1: it's the same thing. And like, but you mean, because

887
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:40,239
Speaker 1: like I, as I got older, I couldn't really funk

888
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:42,759
Speaker 1: with the burgers anymore. It's just like I like, as

889
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,759
Speaker 1: a you know, drunk at night, there's only the one

890
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 1: place open. Fine, Like, I'll hit a double cheeseburger, no problem.

891
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 1: But as I got olders, like, the breakfast was the

892
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 1: only one thing I could not shake that sag mm.

893
00:51:56,280 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that's like necessarily. I've had better sausage,

894
00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 1: I've had better muffin, I've had better cheese and better egg.

895
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:07,160
Speaker 1: But but I like the little hash browns. See, I

896
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: think the breakfast is good. I think the breakfast is good,

897
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:11,760
Speaker 1: I really do. Or like parts of it are so tasty,

898
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:16,879
Speaker 1: the hash browns unbelievable, so delicious. What was everyone's McDonald's

899
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:21,200
Speaker 1: intake like being you know, not fully American American kids.

900
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 1: I didn't eat any um, any like fast food until

901
00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:31,600
Speaker 1: I was like sixteen or something. And then it was

902
00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:35,400
Speaker 1: like a weird treat because I bought it with my

903
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:37,840
Speaker 1: own money when I was taking classes at the Santa

904
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,879
Speaker 1: Monica College over the summer. So I was like one

905
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 1: famous star please from Carl's Jr. And I was like,

906
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:48,120
Speaker 1: here's my dollar, you know what I mean. But it's

907
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:51,360
Speaker 1: not that it was like good, but I loved it. Yeah,

908
00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:56,759
Speaker 1: um see yeah, I what did I you know, what

909
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 1: growing up, my mom like Taco bellmore, which is amazing,

910
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:04,680
Speaker 1: which now Taco Bells over fu, Taco Bell buye girl. Um,

911
00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:07,879
