Speaker 2: Keep the keep the good vibes going.
Speaker 1: That's the only thing. It's like, very very cold.
Speaker 2: And my comment that your song gave me a powerful
Speaker 2: erection was a reference to a story that we're gonna
Speaker 2: be covering maybe later. I now, now we have to
Speaker 2: get to it.
Speaker 1: Oh definitely, but I'm exhausted, so I can't, like, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna do some show takeover or any kind of
Speaker 1: thing like that.
Speaker 2: All right, Chris, we're gonna get to know you a
Speaker 2: little bit better in a moment. First, we're gonna tell
Speaker 2: the listeners a couple of things we're talking about. We're
Speaker 2: definitely gonna talk about that Brian Johnson guy the like
Speaker 2: I want to live Forever guy who you know used
Speaker 2: his eighteen year old son is a blood bag and
Speaker 2: now is tweeting out images of the like metrics from
Speaker 2: his from an app. He uses to track both his
Speaker 2: boner and his eighteen year old son's boner nighttime erections
Speaker 2: and he's just like flexing on everybody, being like, you
Speaker 2: can't even tell the difference. We both have great nighttime Boners. Anyways,
Speaker 2: I just want to look at that story and ask
Speaker 2: the question, should Democrats have maybe stuck with these guys
Speaker 2: are weird thing? I don't know they see it seems
Speaker 2: like I was resonating for a reason. He's not really
Speaker 2: connected to the Trump thing. He's just like a tech
Speaker 2: built you know, tech oligarch weirdo. But I just feel
Speaker 2: like there is a overall consensus that in addition to
Speaker 2: being corrupt, that like it feels like we should be
Speaker 2: able to just be like, look.
Speaker 1: At how what But anyway, yeah, no, this is the
Speaker 1: Nazis were strange. Yeah, yeah, and that's but of course
Speaker 1: none of this is rational. It's all just about control period.
Speaker 1: White people wanting to be in control and not having
Speaker 1: to be told that they can't be mean to women
Speaker 1: and all these crazy things that they think are God
Speaker 1: given fucking rights.
Speaker 2: Given right, Yeah, that's taken away for you know, some time,
Speaker 2: or even being threatened, they get so mad. They're so many,
Speaker 2: they're so mad they can't stop their their body from
Speaker 2: doing a Nazis like they're trying to hold it in
Speaker 2: and they just like can't stop it.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 1: For like one year, yeah, people were like, you should
Speaker 1: stop doing mean jokes about women, and they were like,
Speaker 1: we will overthrow the world, destroy.
Speaker 2: To overthrow everything, become full Nazis. Because you said that,
Speaker 2: we'll talk about that. We'll talk about I just want
Speaker 2: to talk about this one thing that Biden like tried
Speaker 2: to do. I said, like, I suspect that Biden had
Speaker 2: like a futility fetish or something, because like he just
Speaker 2: he loved to like do things and then have them
Speaker 2: like not work out, it seems like. And so there
Speaker 2: was just this one thing he did on the way
Speaker 2: out with the evil rights and then yes, exactly, he
Speaker 2: want like he thinks he gets all the point, he
Speaker 2: gets full credit for at least I tried. Hey I tried.
Speaker 7: Jack, try buster jack buster Jack.
Speaker 2: No malarchy there. So we'll talk about that and all
Speaker 2: that plenty more. But first, Chris Croft and we do
Speaker 2: like to ask our guests, what is something from your
Speaker 2: search history?
Speaker 1: Well this is not if you get we can't like
Speaker 1: play it, but do you remember yesterday I was remembering
Speaker 1: that clip from a long time ago viral video from
Speaker 1: before like so I think it was long enough ago
Speaker 1: that it wasn't like viral properly, but it was just
Speaker 1: got passed around was that on video of the two
Speaker 1: people jogging in Portland in the snow, those two white people,
Speaker 1: and they're both like, this is the ideal kind of
Speaker 1: snow to jog in. And they're like it's just dry
Speaker 1: snow and and and it's just perfect. It cushions you
Speaker 1: just right. And then they on camera they jog away
Speaker 1: and and the lady.
Speaker 2: Falls down, the lady in the perfect snow. Yeah, And
Speaker 2: it's like.
Speaker 1: For me, it was like a metaphor for like, these
Speaker 1: people just like to hear the sound of their own voice.
Speaker 1: And some local newsperson asked them what they were doing
Speaker 1: jogging in the snow, and they made up this unbelievably
Speaker 1: pompous and absurd explanation for how they knew this snow
Speaker 1: was the best snow for jogging. And then and I
Speaker 1: think that's sort of like people really like the sound
Speaker 1: of their own voice and and and made up narratives
Speaker 1: like this snow is perfect for jogging, and we're not
Speaker 1: going to fall down because we're white. And then and
Speaker 1: also just because and they're like also just like sort
Speaker 1: of superior because they're like, you know what, most people
Speaker 1: think running and snow is a bad idea but we like,
Speaker 1: we went to Brown University and our parents are both
Speaker 1: rich and we're hot, so.
Speaker 2: We can like snow doesn't apply to the way they
Speaker 2: talk is important. I think we need to play this. Unfortunately,
Speaker 2: so good folks.
Speaker 1: Find the short version though, because there's a long version
Speaker 1: where they have a have the too much Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: it's great.
Speaker 3: While you're pulling that up. I also love the idea
Speaker 3: of somebody truly thinking, you know, there is people that
Speaker 3: think this that the reason I can't slip in snow
Speaker 3: is because my foot.
Speaker 7: Grip is superior to negroes. Actually they slip too easily.
Speaker 7: Mm hmm, definitely because they didn't stay long enough for me.
Speaker 1: It's like it's like them saying the same thing about fascism,
Speaker 1: like actually, fascism is perfect to jogging.
Speaker 3: It's like you don't until they're proven wrong.
Speaker 2: All right, here we go.
Speaker 3: I can't say I buying.
Speaker 2: We're nice to just stop for a quick second and
Speaker 2: I said, what are you doing running? And you're saying
Speaker 2: it was really good out.
Speaker 1: It's the perfect texture for running, very low impact on
Speaker 1: its dry snow, so youre if you don't get wet.
Speaker 1: What have you seen while you've been out running.
Speaker 2: It's been a lot of fun. There's a lot of
Speaker 2: other runners and more skiers than runners, for sure. I
Speaker 2: think they've got a little bit of the advantage with
Speaker 2: the whole stride and glide thing.
Speaker 3: But it's too nice to not be out here.
Speaker 2: Keep on the run. That's sorry to have kept you,
Speaker 2: but I appreciate you guys talking with us. All right, thanks.
Speaker 8: We've seen a lot of people out here, like you said,
Speaker 8: running sledding, just enjoying it.
Speaker 3: One thing, I can't believe you've never seen this, Jack,
Speaker 3: I've seen it so good.
Speaker 2: Okay, I've seen it. I just I needed the listener
Speaker 2: to hear the context of their answer to understand.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's just.
Speaker 2: Just the perfect footfall, the perfect It reminded me of like,
Speaker 2: you know, like sorry, and then for the description takes
Speaker 2: like an amazing fall, like slip feet fly out from
Speaker 2: under her.
Speaker 1: She could have broken a bone, like it was not
Speaker 1: a small.
Speaker 3: Straight on her back and neck and head.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, like all all parts of the back
Speaker 2: of her body all at the same time.
Speaker 3: And it was perfect too. Because the camera didn't stay
Speaker 3: on the newscaster, it followed them on their run, you know,
Speaker 3: this lady's like, let's just see them, you know, take
Speaker 3: off of the first ten yards and in that perfect
Speaker 3: ten yards, she ate every amount of ship, that every.
Speaker 2: Piece of ship.
Speaker 1: Yeah, make it like out of sight and she could
Speaker 1: have fallen down like eight times and they still would
Speaker 1: have been fine, but they just had she made it
Speaker 1: five more feet. And it reminded me of like Hillary
Speaker 1: Clinton or something being like you know, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it just it just kind of resonated, like the same
Speaker 1: kind of talking that like we need to like all
Speaker 1: we need to do is say this ship and then
Speaker 1: we'll get elected and like, you know, magical thinking.
Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, smug.
Speaker 3: To be clear, when she fell, yeah, it looked like
Speaker 3: it hurt. And she laying on that ground like it hurt.
Speaker 3: So let that be a warning. Yeah, stop talking at
Speaker 3: ass ship people, because when you fail, it's hurt. Mostly
Speaker 3: because I'm gonna come punch you in the nuts.
Speaker 2: Chris, what is something that you think is underrated? Oh?
Speaker 1: Underrated? First, I was gonna say, recognizing Nazi salutes?
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. And I what is that in the kind
Speaker 2: of Is that a reference to something I've missed in
Speaker 2: the news.
Speaker 1: I not familiar recognizing Nazi salutes. Then I also said
Speaker 1: acknowledging death, because I just can't believe we're letting all
Speaker 1: these eighty year olds who are like with their last
Speaker 1: breaths abuse us, like I don't, I just don't, all
Speaker 1: because all because capitalism doesn't want to acknowledge death is
Speaker 1: bad for business, like and and and and the fact
Speaker 1: that we are that someone accumulates four hundred billion dollars
Speaker 1: is such a disorder, such an obvious illness. Yeah, it's,
Speaker 1: it's it's and it's and it's. You know, when I
Speaker 1: got a health scare this year, I thought I had
Speaker 1: lung cancer. Everything halts. All your money is useless, all
Speaker 1: your I mean, all it takes is a like acknowledging
Speaker 1: that you're a human to understand how stupid it is
Speaker 1: to hold enough wealth that you are ruining the whole
Speaker 1: planet's lot, I mean, destroying. I mean, it's just we don't.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just all I'm thinking about is how
Speaker 1: big these villains are, and how much, how how how
Speaker 1: unfortunate it is that humans are so easily deceived. But
Speaker 1: that's part of our, part of our you know, we're
Speaker 1: what here to be easily deceived, I don't know how to,
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know what's the plan here. I mean,
Speaker 1: death is obviously like the whole thing's of a crazy
Speaker 1: equation what we're living through.
Speaker 2: But perfect storm now that they've like tech has linked
Speaker 2: up with like the capital you know, the the rich
Speaker 2: old money like power, and now it's just like this
Speaker 2: perfect storm of like we're going to solve all the
Speaker 2: problems that capitalism hasn't been able to solve up to
Speaker 2: this point. We're gonna fly to Mars so that we
Speaker 2: don't need the environment. We're gonna fix death so that
Speaker 2: we live forever, and we'll like it really is.
Speaker 1: But in the meantime, we're just really stealing money because
Speaker 1: none of those things are gonna fucking happen. We're not
Speaker 1: anywhere near any of those things. Elon Musk is so
Speaker 1: firmly on the ground, he's everywhere on the ground. He's
Speaker 1: nowhere near Mars. He's not even he's no those rockets
Speaker 1: he has doing flips are nowhere near Mars.
Speaker 3: None of it.
Speaker 2: It's one of those guys.
Speaker 1: It's all a grift by people who are fucking insane,
Speaker 1: like but I mean clinically insane.
Speaker 2: And and and Uh, anyway, sorry, I'm going to like
Speaker 2: Doctor Strangela. I do just want to like I I
Speaker 2: I it's a it's a well known movie, but I
Speaker 2: feel like if you're out there and you're like, this
Speaker 2: movie is black and white, I've not watched it because
Speaker 2: it's black and white and old and like, it's it's
Speaker 2: wild how many things, Like I think about it every
Speaker 2: day now because of something that's happening in the news.
Speaker 2: But ultimately, like it's about they find themselves in this
Speaker 2: situation where like it's they're in control of a decision
Speaker 2: that would like end life on the planet, and they're
Speaker 2: ultimately like, we should end the life on the planet
Speaker 2: and like repopulate things ourselves in a cave because then
Speaker 2: we get to have sex and be like powerful. But
Speaker 2: also the performance of the titular character is so reminiscent
Speaker 2: of what Elon Musk is physically doing on that stage.
Speaker 2: It's it's so fucking weird.
Speaker 1: Well, you can look at those things, Yeah, that movie
Speaker 1: is amazing that and you can look at like you
Speaker 1: can actually look we've been around long enough, or technology
Speaker 1: has been around long enough that you can look at
Speaker 1: like newsreels from like the eighteen hundreds like late eighteen
Speaker 1: hundreds of like people you know, wearing tall hats, like
Speaker 1: walking around Paris or whatever on cobblestones, and you know,
Speaker 1: you can realize that every single person in that video,
Speaker 1: every single one of them is dead and uh yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know, like so there will be a time
Speaker 1: where you know, you don't this isn't there's no urgency.
Speaker 2: That's the thing.
Speaker 1: Is just this urgency, this false urgency, like we need
Speaker 1: to do this now, and we need to we need
Speaker 1: to of AI. We can't like we can't let everybody
Speaker 1: like get ahead of us on AI.
Speaker 3: And it's like get.
Speaker 2: Ahead of what.
Speaker 1: You guys are the ones that, well, you're there's no urgency,
Speaker 1: there's no one competing. You're the same five guys in
Speaker 1: every country pushing this AI. There's no competition. You guys
Speaker 1: are just pushing a grift where you get tons of money.
Speaker 1: You know, there's no AI is not essential to anything.
Speaker 1: It doesn't help anybody. It's garbage that you guys are
Speaker 1: pushing because you can get funding and it may or
Speaker 1: just like it's just a startup. Everything's just a scam
Speaker 1: to raise money for these five dudes that are completely
Speaker 1: unevolved and and I know we're at a point where
Speaker 1: that's starting to dawn on everybody, which you know, I
Speaker 1: wish it just you know, I wish I wish it
Speaker 1: could have happened before they already had all the money.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think we're maybe underestimated like how powerful
Speaker 2: they are and how like this is like that they're
Speaker 2: you know, Elon Musk is the richest person who's ever lived,
Speaker 2: and probably like at a certain point, people are going
Speaker 2: to be like that, you know, we can't do this anymore.
Speaker 2: So it's gonna be generationally his name is going to
Speaker 2: go down in history like that because of this like
Speaker 2: one like the un Yeah, because of like this one
Speaker 2: period in history where like we didn't have safeguards in place,
Speaker 2: and the tech industry just like created these people who
Speaker 2: were richer than entire nations. And it's gonna like shape
Speaker 2: the next one hundred years.
Speaker 1: I wish I could be a like I think the
Speaker 1: fun of is the fun of this is going to
Speaker 1: be a thousand years from now going over like this
Speaker 1: period'll be really fun because they'll just be like, holy fuck,
Speaker 1: these people are fucking stupid disaster. I mean, look at
Speaker 1: these fools. Yeah, all because they got a machine that
Speaker 1: takes pictures in their pocket.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is pretty cool.
Speaker 1: And they love images of themselves. And I guess they
Speaker 1: never read the story of Narcissus the myth, but you
Speaker 1: know who, I don't.
Speaker 2: I didn't really either, I just know the outline. Like
Speaker 2: there's all these like weird historical coincidence, like not coincidences,
Speaker 2: but like, for instance, like all these religious figures were
Speaker 2: alive around the same time, all these like scientific figures
Speaker 2: were alive around the same time. Like so like Jesus
Speaker 2: and like Confucius, and like all these people around the world.
Speaker 2: You know, like there were just like forces that made
Speaker 2: it possible and made it make sense for them to
Speaker 2: all like kind of come about at the same time.
Speaker 2: And I feel like we're dealing with like the worst
Speaker 2: possible version of that, where we've got these like tech generation,
Speaker 2: like literally generationally wealthy tech figures who are going to
Speaker 2: be like generations from now are going to have to
Speaker 2: be dealing with the shit.
Speaker 1: Let me just tell you quickly that Jack past ten
Speaker 1: to fifteen years, just to back up. I want to
Speaker 1: tell you in case you're not familiar with the story
Speaker 1: of Narcissus. He pushed a huge rock up a hill. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the one, and it just kept going back down.
Speaker 1: And then he had this painting in the attic that
Speaker 1: got old, but he didn't get old.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and yeah, yeah that's the one. So I just
Speaker 2: want to I thought you hadn't read it. That's your something,
Speaker 2: you're an expert.
Speaker 1: I wrote it, good memory.
Speaker 2: Let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. And
Speaker 2: we're back, and Chris, we do like to ask our
Speaker 2: guests also, what's something you think is overrated? Oh? Did
Speaker 2: I do that? Man?
Speaker 1: I forgot that that was so deep or so sad.
Speaker 1: When I just brought up that, I forgot that was
Speaker 1: your underrated. Yeah that sucks dad or whatever. Oh oh
Speaker 1: good death overrated. First of all, I'm thirteen years sober today.
Speaker 1: If anyone wants to reach out to me about sobriety,
Speaker 1: I'm always.
Speaker 2: Open to that.
Speaker 1: I also used to have a really good time drinking,
Speaker 1: so I'm not you know, I just can't do it anymore.
Speaker 1: But I'm not like, if you do drink, you know,
Speaker 1: and you're having fun, that rules. I wish I could drink,
Speaker 1: because now seems like it'd be a really good time
Speaker 1: to drink.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you were good at it, but I'm not.
Speaker 1: So I've been it's sober for thirteen years, and so
Speaker 1: I'm very grateful for the support. I'm grateful for the
Speaker 1: zeitgeist for allowing me to talk about it, even though
Speaker 1: it's not the most entertaining topic all the time. I'll
Speaker 1: never forget that. Remember the live one, Jack, where we
Speaker 1: had that one about the year two thousand. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: you asked me like it was in person, and and
Speaker 1: and we had the chat in front of us on
Speaker 1: a big screen and it was like blazing by all
Speaker 1: the like hello Jack or whatever, just a covert remember
Speaker 1: the fuye like all this shit going by, Yeah, ohelming
Speaker 1: And I said, Jackie's I said. They said what's overrated?
Speaker 1: I said alcohol and some I just saw a comment
Speaker 1: that just said I paid ten dollars to go to
Speaker 1: an AA meeting, which I saw and I said, I
Speaker 1: am so sorry. If I was still drinking, I'd be
Speaker 1: so angry right now. So anyway, but if you are
Speaker 1: having any trouble, please dm me on Instagram or whatever.
Speaker 1: I'm happy to talk anytime. Yeah, but overrated, I would say,
Speaker 1: looking at maps, because I will tell you I went
Speaker 1: to I did a show on the way to chicag
Speaker 1: go in Kirksville, Missouri, and it was absolutely a blast.
Speaker 1: But if I had known where Kirksville, Missouri was, I
Speaker 1: would never have gone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I don't.
Speaker 1: I was like, Missouri, how far can it be?
Speaker 2: So faced like I'll stop by that state on my
Speaker 2: way to others. State is uh, yeah, Well.
Speaker 1: Here's the problem. Was like, it's not how far Kirksville was,
Speaker 1: but that I I just on my own decide it
Speaker 1: was on the way to Chicago.
Speaker 3: It's not.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I like, they kept saying, and we can't
Speaker 1: believe you came. We can't believe you came. And I
Speaker 1: was like, I don't see what the big deal is.
Speaker 1: It's on the way to Chicago, and they said, no,
Speaker 1: it's not. When I found that out, but it ended
Speaker 1: up being because it was eight hours to Kirksville from Nashville.
Speaker 1: I was thinking Saint Louis was like the top of
Speaker 1: the state or something, so that's five hours. So I
Speaker 1: had no idea it was eight hours, but I don't care.
Speaker 1: I'm down for an adventure. That's the other thing is
Speaker 1: like I want to kind of know where I'm going,
Speaker 1: but I find out when I put it in the machine,
Speaker 1: you know, so eight hours. But then I didn't check
Speaker 1: what happens from Kirksville to Chicago. So I said to
Speaker 1: my friends in Chicago, like, I'll be done in Kirksville
Speaker 1: like probably morning of Thursday, so i'll be.
Speaker 2: Up You think that's like thirty five forty men or
Speaker 2: whatever it is Monday.
Speaker 1: I was like, I'll be up there in like three
Speaker 1: and a half hours or whatever. And then I looked
Speaker 1: at the thing. It's like six hours.
Speaker 2: Another six yeah, yeah, And that's when it really get
Speaker 2: to you, the second leg of the trip. But it
Speaker 2: was so great.
Speaker 1: And I don't want to hype Kirksville, but everywhere I go,
Speaker 1: I want to move there if there's like one nice
Speaker 1: person there, because especially I'm so fucking mad at Nashville.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, oh boy, oh boy, this place rules.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'll move here.
Speaker 2: And they're like, well, yeah, there's the cool things you
Speaker 2: should know.
Speaker 3: For her, They were like, all forty people want to
Speaker 3: move out.
Speaker 1: All forty people. The forty people in this room are
Speaker 1: the only cool forty people.
Speaker 3: This time.
Speaker 2: We all know each other by name.
Speaker 4: Also, if you come, you have to bring a woman Jesus.
Speaker 4: They're like, there are no do not come here single.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like a club. They're like, I mean, they're just.
Speaker 1: Telling filling me in, like, hey, this isn't near Chicago.
Speaker 1: You don't want to move here. But I had so
Speaker 1: much fun because it's a farm town that has a
Speaker 1: university and and they had a great college radio station
Speaker 1: that was like playing M and M and ship. It
Speaker 1: was fun, so fun, you know, it felt like it
Speaker 1: felt like and I am not opposed to finding small communities,
Speaker 1: like moving somewhere where you can feel fucking sane, you know.
Speaker 1: So I I I don't think that that is self preservation.
Speaker 1: There's no shame in like being like Nashville is becoming
Speaker 1: a you know, a venture capital nightmare. If I'm just
Speaker 1: trying to figure out, like I could fight that I
Speaker 1: ran for office, but I'm not gonna win. I am
Speaker 1: not gonna win that battle. Nashville wants it to be.
Speaker 1: The powers that be in Nashville are not this is
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna nobody's turning this around. So I was
Speaker 1: just like Kirksville, maybe not, you know, it's not as
Speaker 1: close to Chicago as I thought.
Speaker 3: But but anyway, maybe maybe you have a nice little
Speaker 3: apartment there where rent is two hundred and seventy two dollars.
Speaker 1: Yeah, six guys got together and rented a storefront in
Speaker 1: the old like town square that used to sell like
Speaker 1: grain and stuff. And they just rent a storefront and
Speaker 1: have shows in there. They just put up some Christmas
Speaker 1: lights and they have a coffee maker and it was
Speaker 1: amazing and they had a great band that played. And
Speaker 1: it turns out that Truman University in that area is
Speaker 1: like a liberal arts college. Like it was a public school,
Speaker 1: so it was cheap, but it was a liberal arts model,
Speaker 1: so it was like kind of like a waiver people
Speaker 1: who couldn't afford a fancy you know, go to fucking
Speaker 1: Harvard or I don't know.
Speaker 2: What a liberal art school is, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Like it was like an artsy college for at a
Speaker 1: public price. So that's interesting. And then on top of that,
Speaker 1: an hour away in Iowa. That's how close I was.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I'm right by No, it's right
Speaker 1: near Nashville.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Iowa.
Speaker 1: So Iowa has this town called Fearfield, Iowa. That's the
Speaker 1: center of transcendental meditation. It was like built around that
Speaker 1: that was an hour away from Kirksville. So I didn't
Speaker 1: really know there was like these little like sort of
Speaker 1: intellectual outposts in like I mean, there aren't that many,
Speaker 1: you know, and they're like the outpost is forty people,
Speaker 1: you know, and they're all here and they're all dudes.
Speaker 2: Yeah. But anyway, there are cool towns, So don't reck
Speaker 2: the map great Land that aren't like the big three
Speaker 2: like cities and that have amazing people in them, you know.
Speaker 1: So load up your debit card and don't look at maps.
Speaker 1: There you go, just just drive extra couple of tanks
Speaker 1: of gas that you didn't know about.
Speaker 2: All right, let's uh, let's get into just real quick.
Speaker 2: I wanted to talk about We're at the one week
Speaker 2: anniversary of Biden's last minute Equal Rights Amendment statement, his
Speaker 2: like big flourish as he left office. That feels like
Speaker 2: it's kind of a good metaphor or for his whole thing,
Speaker 2: his whole administration. So he declared that the Equal Rights
Speaker 2: Amendment is now quote, the law of the land, guaranteeing
Speaker 2: all Americans equal rights and protections under the law, regardless
Speaker 2: of their sex. And so a lot of people pointed
Speaker 2: out that this implied in this was that he was
Speaker 2: then going to order the Archivist of the United States
Speaker 2: to publish the Equal Rights Amendment. That was like the
Speaker 2: actual like physical thing that needed to happen, like the
Speaker 2: follow up to be like, yeah, so this is what
Speaker 2: I'm doing. A lot of people have also pointed out,
Speaker 2: like Trump would have probably found a way to overturn this,
Speaker 2: and he like couldn't have necessarily gotten away with it,
Speaker 2: but like making the statement suggested that he had like
Speaker 2: thought through that and like done some legwork to make
Speaker 2: these things possible now, and instead, not only had he
Speaker 2: not done that leg work, not like worked with because
Speaker 2: his own Department of Justice had previously ruled like that
Speaker 2: he couldn't do this, and so when he made the statement,
Speaker 2: people are like, oh shit, he like worked with the
Speaker 2: dj and like got them to like on board. So
Speaker 2: didn't do that. So hadn't even like done that work
Speaker 2: and then didn't do the follow up call with the look,
Speaker 2: I don't know what the fucking archivist is, Like, I
Speaker 2: don't know anything about that, but like presumably the Biden,
Speaker 2: the top people in the president's cabinet and staff should know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they were like, our position is he said it, so
Speaker 2: the archivist should just publish it because of that thing
Speaker 2: he said, just shirking all responsibility for what happens next.
Speaker 2: So essentially he made this big statement to quote. I
Speaker 2: think it was a Jezebel article. The declaration quote doesn't
Speaker 2: mean shit, and nothing happened, and it just I don't know.
Speaker 2: It seems like he has a futility fetish, Like I
Speaker 2: remember multiple times during his presidency where he would like
Speaker 2: say he was doing a thing and then not be
Speaker 2: able to do the thing and then be like, what
Speaker 2: the well, you know what am I supposed to do?
Speaker 2: My hands are tied, And in this case, I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't know, like I remember it. With regards to
Speaker 2: student debt forgiveness, I know he did do a lot
Speaker 2: of student debt forgiveness, but when it came to like
Speaker 2: predictable pushback from the Supreme Court and Republicans and businesses,
Speaker 2: and then, you know, the place that it was most
Speaker 2: obvious was like with Israel, where he spent the year
Speaker 2: and a half like talking about how poed he was
Speaker 2: that net and Yahu wouldn't listen to him, Like it's
Speaker 2: like he thinks he's getting like a's for efforts on
Speaker 2: all of these things, and yeah, I think this is
Speaker 2: how you get to a place where not just the
Speaker 2: extremely rich think authoritarian authoritarianism is a good idea because
Speaker 2: it like allows them to be corrupt and continue getting richer.
Speaker 2: But like, also it seems like a bunch of people
Speaker 2: think authoritarianism is a good idea because you have just
Speaker 2: lived through a bunch of presidencies where as the world
Speaker 2: literally burns, the president keeps like throwing his hands up
Speaker 2: and being like what am I supposed to do? Or
Speaker 2: in the case of Obama, like bailing out Wall Street
Speaker 2: and like making fucking people pay for the bailout with taxes,
Speaker 2: while after running as like the Hope and Change candidate,
Speaker 2: Like it's.
Speaker 1: That I cried when he was elected.
Speaker 8: I'm so happy, Yeah, and then I felt totally rip off. Yeah,
Speaker 8: I mean, it's just it's been bad, bad times for
Speaker 8: the brand of like the US president getting shit done,
Speaker 8: and so with like I just I think that's important
Speaker 8: context for like what we're seeing now where Trump is
Speaker 8: just like, yeah, I'm going to be a fucking dictator,
Speaker 8: and you know, a bunch of albeit racist people seem
Speaker 8: to like be like hell, yeah, lets it, let's let's see.
Speaker 2: Where we're going with it.
Speaker 1: Well, it also feeds into conspiracy theories, because why in
Speaker 1: the world, if this, if the Democrats were so upset
Speaker 1: about Trump being an existential threat, why in the world
Speaker 1: didn't they go all out to pass every executive order,
Speaker 1: every single possible thing in the last few months. And
Speaker 1: they didn't. They didn't do fucking anything. They've packed up,
Speaker 1: and I think the Democrats kind of acted like, well,
Speaker 1: we tried to teach these dumb ass racists and idiots
Speaker 1: what it's like, you know. We tried to show that
Speaker 1: this is the most pragmatic way to be, is the
Speaker 1: way we are being. We have to like, you know,
Speaker 1: like but see later. You know what we did our part.
Speaker 1: We can't help if everybody's an idiot, Like see you
Speaker 1: guys later, have fun, Like we're just going to retreat
Speaker 1: to Martha's vineyard where we already lived, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think it's pod Save America, which I'm I'm even mad.
Speaker 1: I'm so mad at Podsave America. And I don't even
Speaker 1: ever watch it or really have never seen it. I've
Speaker 1: seen just bits of it, and I want to fuck
Speaker 1: I just want to I just can't believe, you know,
Speaker 1: you can't say podsave America when you're the ones who
Speaker 1: fucked America, right, you're the guys who fucking put Obama
Speaker 1: in office, and and as in a in a trick,
Speaker 1: like as a trick. I mean, I don't know if
Speaker 1: Obama was used, but they wouldn't allow him to do
Speaker 1: hope and change if he was really wanting to.
Speaker 3: You know, I just feel like a combination. It feels
Speaker 3: like it was a combination, but it does. I do know.
Speaker 3: Like one of the things that it's annoying about our
Speaker 3: Democratic leaders and also what we see with the Republican
Speaker 3: leaders that come into office, whether it is through Congress
Speaker 3: or the presidency, is the fact that you know, it's
Speaker 3: a lot of it feels like it's a lot of
Speaker 3: talk talk talk, talk talk for your side apparently, and
Speaker 3: then on the left side with the leaders that are
Speaker 3: in office, it's all to talk, no follow through, and
Speaker 3: they're trying to placate to both sides in a way
Speaker 3: that doesn't work because you they're never gonna they're never
Speaker 3: gonna like what you are doing, like and I know
Speaker 3: it's more complex and nuanced than that, but what that
Speaker 3: allows them to do is to just like what Biden
Speaker 3: did throughout this whole administration is I'm gonna do this
Speaker 3: and then make a hot half ass try at it
Speaker 3: and then never fucking do it or it doesn't go
Speaker 3: all the way through. And it's like, Nigga, you've been
Speaker 3: in office for ninety five fucking years. You know how
Speaker 3: this game is, Like you know, you know, like this
Speaker 3: isn't new to you. So and so what that means
Speaker 3: is like if I if I do something and I
Speaker 3: know what the outcome is, but I'm doing it to
Speaker 3: make the people who are ignorant to the process think
Speaker 3: that I'm doing something, I'm manipulative. Yeah, Like, and that's
Speaker 3: what it feels like. That's what Biden did for four years.
Speaker 3: It was just like mass manipulation to the people who
Speaker 3: put him in office.
Speaker 1: And was that his intention?
Speaker 2: Do you think?
Speaker 1: Or was that something that he just couldn't help but
Speaker 1: do because he was too in front.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm trying to figure out, Like is
Speaker 2: it maybe is it like a thing where he's letting
Speaker 2: himself off the hook by being like, look, I just
Speaker 2: did this thing, and I tried, I tried my best,
Speaker 2: and like he's I'm gonna go down in history as
Speaker 2: that tried my best president, or if he was literally
Speaker 2: thinking that he could get up there and people were
Speaker 2: so like not savvy and checked out, that they would
Speaker 2: just be like, there he did the thing, you know,
Speaker 2: Because here's the thing with Obama.
Speaker 3: And I'm not excusing Obama. Look, I love you. I'm
Speaker 3: a black man. We had a black president. I'm from Chicago.
Speaker 3: We had a Chicago president. That will always mean something
Speaker 3: to me, Like, it will always mean something to me,
Speaker 3: and anybody who says it shouldn't consuck the deepest levels.
Speaker 2: Of my dick.
Speaker 3: But like, and they're saying levels and some deep levels.
Speaker 3: And that's not me excusing all the bullshit that he did.
Speaker 3: Like two things could be true. So like he also
Speaker 3: was severely disappointed. But the one thing about Obama in
Speaker 3: relation to Biden is that Obama, a lot of people forget,
Speaker 3: had just hit the political scene four to six years
Speaker 3: before he was elected president, which is a very short
Speaker 3: time in politics. Now. The reason I'm bringing that up
Speaker 3: is when you talk about a Biden and you talk
Speaker 3: about somebody who's been in politics since eighteen forty two,
Speaker 3: like you would think that he knows how this works,
Speaker 3: and you would think that he's entrenched in in a
Speaker 3: way where he's above the games and the manipulation of
Speaker 3: the politics around him, as opposed to an Obama Like Chris,
Speaker 3: you brought this up, was he used in a way,
Speaker 3: And like I do think there's some elements of that
Speaker 3: because he was brand new in politics. He wasn't a
Speaker 3: career politician at that point. Now he learned it really
Speaker 3: fucking quick, but he wasn't like a career politician like
Speaker 3: Biden was. And so Biden when somebody like Obama runs
Speaker 3: on the hope and change and then like the rug
Speaker 3: is pulled out from underneath you, like there is an
Speaker 3: element of maybe that's where you were, and also you
Speaker 3: got played by the people around you. When somebody like
Speaker 3: Biden runs on hope and change and this nigga's been
Speaker 3: in office for seven decades and then you pulled a
Speaker 3: rug fromount under us, then you are the problem.
Speaker 2: With my friend, Like you should know.
Speaker 3: You know this game. You're supposed to have all these
Speaker 3: relationships like people who were born and you were a
Speaker 3: senator and now are working with you, like he like,
Speaker 3: come on, bro, Like the reason.
Speaker 2: He talks like that, like says malarkey and shit like
Speaker 2: that and calls people jack is because like when he started,
Speaker 2: that was the equivalent of like riz and like you know,
Speaker 2: cool gen zealing go like that was that was cool
Speaker 2: stuff that people were like, man, this guy's pretty edgy
Speaker 2: corn pop story. Never yeah, that was him just like
Speaker 2: reverting to like straight and he first came in sounded
Speaker 2: out of like it was out of a literate little abner.
Speaker 2: They were like this new generation of politicians like Joe
Speaker 2: Biden grew up, you know, with their fancy, new fangled
Speaker 2: habits of like hitting a hoop down the street with
Speaker 2: a stick, like he's you know, he says things like malarkey,
Speaker 2: his his smack is.
Speaker 1: So I forgot about Hideo who.
Speaker 2: Never forget?
Speaker 3: Who knows if I'm not mistaken, Like if he's not
Speaker 3: the longest, he's in the top ten of people who
Speaker 3: have been in politics the longest, Like he was came
Speaker 3: in and it was the youngest senator when he was
Speaker 3: elected and the oldest dirt when he left politics finally
Speaker 3: a week ago so or six seven days ago, and
Speaker 3: so like it was just so distant. If it was,
Speaker 3: it's more upsetting, uh, because you know, we put him
Speaker 3: in office, nobody expected him to like be hope and change.
Speaker 3: But we put him in office off the things that
Speaker 3: he said he would do, and then he went in
Speaker 3: knowing how the game works and just played the fucking
Speaker 3: game and expects us to be like, well he tried, man,
Speaker 3: fuck you.
Speaker 1: Well that's that's the part I wonder. I was, like,
Speaker 1: you know, I was okay with the idea of like, oh,
Speaker 1: I can understand his presidency in the sense that like
Speaker 1: he's trying to show that the dignified, incremental way as
Speaker 1: opposed to like, I'm not some guy like Trump who's
Speaker 1: like just gonna go crazy. So that's like the choice,
Speaker 1: like I'm showing you how the system works in a
Speaker 1: way where we just do things the way they're supposed
Speaker 1: to be. But what I don't, which is what makes
Speaker 1: me think of like conspiratorially, is I don't understand the
Speaker 1: last few months since he lost the election why he
Speaker 1: didn't do anything. That's the part where I'm like, I
Speaker 1: do not get it, Like if I was doing in
Speaker 1: his uh you know, resentment about being replaced on the ticket.
Speaker 1: His theory is he would have won the election and
Speaker 1: we got sucked, and which is insane.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally so I just.
Speaker 1: Don't I don't know how to I don't know how
Speaker 1: to think about him.
Speaker 3: You know. It feels like he didn't do anything because
Speaker 3: he didn't want to do anything.
Speaker 1: That's that's my that's my suspicion, because even if he
Speaker 1: didn't want to do it, the people around him, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, well the obvious example is Israel Palestine. I mean, like,
Speaker 1: you know, they didn't want to do anything, and everyone
Speaker 1: knows that now and you can't undo that. So that's
Speaker 1: where the Democrats have nothing, no brand anymore. They don't
Speaker 1: have any trust, you know, and I mean, no one
Speaker 1: trusted the Republicans. But that's why people like the Republicans,
Speaker 1: because they're just like, oh, well, they're the real thing.
Speaker 3: At least they say madness of course, and they and
Speaker 3: and they even in an underhanded way at the very least,
Speaker 3: you know, seemingly care about their base, to the point
Speaker 3: where Trump was like, I'm gonna do all this ship
Speaker 3: and then this motherfucker is like doing it, like in
Speaker 3: a way that he was like I don't care if
Speaker 3: I push it through. I don't care, like if you
Speaker 3: if you're a senator who was not on my agenda,
Speaker 3: like go like jump in the river, uh and like
Speaker 3: as bullshit. But like I know, like a lot of
Speaker 3: Democrats be like I wish our side could be like that. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but there's an element where I wish our side could
Speaker 3: be like that sometimes because like, you know, instead of
Speaker 3: making all these promises in these half ass attempts, yeah,
Speaker 3: we want you to do shit. We want you to
Speaker 3: like push it through and be like this is for
Speaker 3: the better of the fucking people.
Speaker 1: Did you see the mayor of Chicago's statement about the
Speaker 1: other day about about like how he's not gonna let
Speaker 1: ice come in here and all this sort of stuff,
Speaker 1: like and the way he spoke, that's like I was like,
Speaker 1: that's the kind of talk we needed on the campaign.
Speaker 1: Like he was just like fuck these people, Like fuck
Speaker 1: these people. I mean, he was just saying friggin and stuff.
Speaker 2: But I mean like that's.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's why I feel like, you know, I
Speaker 1: feel like the Democrats, you know, I'm I don't feel
Speaker 1: like they're they're not like they didn't want they were
Speaker 1: more comfortable with fascism than than changing one fucking thing
Speaker 1: about their their own corruption.
Speaker 2: They're yeah, Like so the reason that Trump had a
Speaker 2: campaign in the first place in twenty fifteen. Like how
Speaker 2: it was brought together is because like there was you know,
Speaker 2: Steve Bannon and like other really wealthy donors had this idea,
Speaker 2: like had this data that said Americans wanted an outsider candidate,
Speaker 2: which is like exactly what we're talking about, this idea
Speaker 2: that like somebody could come in and just like fucking
Speaker 2: force things to get done. And both sides wanted it,
Speaker 2: and like Bernie Sanders got a lot of support and
Speaker 2: like almost beat Hillary Clinton, the most establishment candidate, like
Speaker 2: on the Democratic side, and Trump on the Republican side
Speaker 2: did beat the you know, all of the establishments, and
Speaker 2: now like that this is like this is the result
Speaker 2: of that, Like the Democrats kept doubling down on establishment
Speaker 2: and going back to the establishment stuff. But like the
Speaker 2: reason that Trump is popular and that Sanders had like
Speaker 2: that upswell of support is because people recognize that something
Speaker 2: is broken and fucked about the system, and the Democrats
Speaker 2: are a institution that is like specifically designed to not
Speaker 2: recognize that. And so it just feel it feels like
Speaker 2: we're going to as long as I don't know what
Speaker 2: the way is out of this, because it feels like
Speaker 2: the Democrats are going to find a way to like
Speaker 2: double back down on whatever. The establishment oh the answer,
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, because that's all they are that they
Speaker 2: are the establishment.
Speaker 3: So here's the thing too. I know we got to
Speaker 3: move on, but like to another topic or take a break, sough.
Speaker 3: But here's another thing too. When at you know, twenty
Speaker 3: sixty to side in twenty twenty, the talk in the
Speaker 3: media at least or amongst people was, what is the
Speaker 3: Republican Party now? After Trump, you know, got booted out,
Speaker 3: anybody got elected, They're broken. Who's the leader, Who's this,
Speaker 3: who's that, who's this? Like nobody knew the direction of
Speaker 3: the Republican Party and all these things. And that was
Speaker 3: the talking in the media on so online and everything
Speaker 3: like that. And what they were quietly doing in those
Speaker 3: two to three years until it was like time to
Speaker 3: start launching campaigns Eason and Trump came back and rolled
Speaker 3: a wave to victory was they were quietly assembling like
Speaker 3: the tech industry and like going on social media and
Speaker 3: like actually like using the tool that they hated in
Speaker 3: the previous four years to their advantage and doing a
Speaker 3: lot of things to like shore up the fact that
Speaker 3: no matter what was going to happen. Trump was going
Speaker 3: to get elected, and like the leadership and the vision
Speaker 3: and the structure of the Republican Party came together quick
Speaker 3: as fuck, yeah, because it was crazy. Right now, we
Speaker 3: are saying the same thing about Democrats. What's the direction,
Speaker 3: who's the leader, where are we going, What's gonna happen? This, that,
Speaker 3: and the other. The hope is that maybe behind the
Speaker 3: scenes something that's happening. Unfortunately, the faith that I have
Speaker 3: in that is almost zero. And like that's the problem. Like,
Speaker 3: you got your asses handed to you, and it was
Speaker 3: partly mostly your fault. What are you doing now?
Speaker 2: You got too?
Speaker 3: Like jay Z when he retired and like he had
Speaker 3: his first song and like when he was coming back
Speaker 3: and at the end of the song, he was like,
Speaker 3: y'all got two months to get y'all shipped together. Good luck.
Speaker 3: Like that's how he ended his first song after his
Speaker 3: retirement in three like I want, like the Democrats to
Speaker 3: be in that mindset. I've got two years to get
Speaker 3: y'all shipped together, good luck. Like we're we're we're building,
Speaker 3: we're we're getting ship ready, and I just don't think
Speaker 3: that's happening. And that ship pisses me off more than
Speaker 3: anything else.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, Yeah, I don't know how it can
Speaker 2: have Like I'm at the point where I'm just like,
Speaker 2: I don't know how how an organ an organism that
Speaker 2: is like specifically designed as a like anti change, self
Speaker 2: sustaining power machine is gonna is going to create change
Speaker 2: and I don't know, not do something that would undermine
Speaker 2: its own ability to sustain itself. It's uh, I I
Speaker 2: don't know, pretty bleak on the democratic side. Let's take
Speaker 2: a quick break and we'll come back and talk about
Speaker 2: tech guy and his son's boner contest will be oh no,
Speaker 2: and we're back.
Speaker 3: And this is why I requested to be on this episode.
Speaker 1: That yeah, speaking up over here, I'm like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: sex up my commentary.
Speaker 2: Yeah, making me feel like.
Speaker 1: Just a damn prude over here. Prude that's the oldest
Speaker 1: word in the world. That didn't help. That didn't help,
Speaker 1: all right, go ahead.
Speaker 2: So I don't know, Just like with the tech the
Speaker 2: tech industry, who are now you know, Mark Zuckerberg's trying
Speaker 2: to convince us like he's just a guys guy, always
Speaker 2: has been. You know, he's he's into smoked meats and
Speaker 2: uh threw his hair. Du Yeah, oh Zuckerberg, Yeah, cool dude,
Speaker 2: But like, I don't know, I think that whole these
Speaker 2: guys are weird. Thing for the Democrats stumbled on with
Speaker 2: Tim Walls and then immediately you know, left left behind.
Speaker 2: I think might have been on this thing, you know,
Speaker 2: after watching Ela Musk go full Doctor Strange Love, where
Speaker 2: his body seems to be like giving a Nazi salute
Speaker 2: despite itself, like he can't help it. He just like
Speaker 2: his body like bursts out of his body, or like
Speaker 2: you know part of the movie where the person like
Speaker 2: can't stop their body from dancing, like where they're like,
Speaker 2: I don't want to dance, but then they're like shoulders
Speaker 2: starts like moving to the beat. It like feels like
Speaker 2: it was that except Nazi. Wait a minute, he was
Speaker 2: bursting forth.
Speaker 1: That I haven't seen Doctor Strange Love in a while.
Speaker 1: There is like a character that can't stop giving the
Speaker 1: Nazi salute.
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, exactly, Doctor Strange Love himself can't stop. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he has like alien hand syndrome where like the hand
Speaker 2: is you know, doing the thing, and then his other
Speaker 2: arm is like trying to fold it.
Speaker 1: I forgot about that. Yeah, yeah, I was imagining the
Speaker 1: guy riding the bomb, which is also relatable.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's that's all of us. But anyways, we have
Speaker 2: another rich tech guy stretching the limits of how weird
Speaker 2: all arcs can be. So I don't know. Brian Johnson
Speaker 2: is officially like connected to the conservative movement or what,
Speaker 2: but he's a tech multimillionaire. I think he sold his
Speaker 2: company for like three hundred and fifty million dollars and
Speaker 2: he's famous for investing all of the money into defeating
Speaker 2: his own death, like putting using his son as a
Speaker 2: blood bag, sleeping in hyperbaric chambers, meticulously documenting his penis health,
Speaker 2: and like deaging his penis is a thing that he
Speaker 2: likes to talk about. Like it's not exactly the same
Speaker 2: as Elam Musk's long term plan to like kill the
Speaker 2: earth but then like terraform Mars with a bunch of
Speaker 2: his own children. But it's like same universe. You know,
Speaker 2: It's like the thing Chris, that you were talking about
Speaker 2: of tap, like the inability to accept death and mortality
Speaker 2: and you know, the fact that human existence is finite.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and just making up stories which people have made.
Speaker 1: You know, long people have been how long rich people
Speaker 1: have been trying to extend their lives unsuccessfully. Guess what
Speaker 1: they're not. Look around and see how many fifteenth century
Speaker 1: rich people are around.
Speaker 2: Yeah, none one. Who's one. Who's Joe Biden? Yeah, Joe Biden,
Speaker 2: count orlock but anyway, yeah, yeah, but this is just
Speaker 2: so he posted yesterday some charts that to the naked
Speaker 2: eye might seem like just like weird metrics on you know,
Speaker 2: it could could be like readouts from like some some
Speaker 2: business spreadsheet. But in fact he helpfully provided the context
Speaker 2: that this is nighttime erection data from my nineteen year
Speaker 2: old son at and then like tags him and me.
Speaker 2: His duration is two minutes longer than mine. Raise children
Speaker 2: to stand tall, be firm, and be upright. This is
Speaker 2: just it's over be in jail. Yeah, it's is very
Speaker 2: very strange. This also like ties back to like we've
Speaker 2: talked before, the Speaker of the House, the Republican Speaker
Speaker 2: of the House, Mike Johnson, has it like publicly talks
Speaker 2: about using the app Covenant Eyes with his son, who
Speaker 2: is a teenager, which effectively means like he's talking about
Speaker 2: like having a not jacking off contest with his son's
Speaker 2: child abuse.
Speaker 1: The other thing is too it's all child abuse. That's
Speaker 1: not fucking You can't do that to your kids.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they do. I don't, So I don't know,
Speaker 2: like what weird, like how this keeps coming up for them,
Speaker 2: that they keep getting focused on their sons boners and
Speaker 2: like publicly bragging about them. But it is a strange
Speaker 2: little glimpse into like what what this version of oligarchy
Speaker 2: is going to look like?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Jack, you have children, I do, uh huh.
Speaker 2: Tell the people what I like where this conversation.
Speaker 3: Jack, you guys you got a son, right, yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 3: and Jack, you're a fan of technology. Tell the people
Speaker 3: what the things that we should be worried about from
Speaker 3: our sons, you know, give me the top three things
Speaker 3: that we should be worried about with our sons besides
Speaker 3: their boners, besides their boners, besides their bonus one. But
Speaker 3: you can take that off.
Speaker 2: I can't talk about their penises at all.
Speaker 3: No, I would, I would recommend not.
Speaker 2: Let me just change a couple of things around the
Speaker 2: Changers straight Changer spreadsheet.
Speaker 1: Let me turn off this monitor.
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna make the Rose one through eleven disappear
Speaker 2: on there you go high.
Speaker 3: Right click hide Rose.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's so many things to be worried about with
Speaker 2: children to technology, like having them lose their free will
Speaker 2: to technology, you know, being like that, like the weird
Speaker 2: toxic parts of our culture don't like leach into them
Speaker 2: through the soil of just like everyday life. Yeah, there's
Speaker 2: just so so so much which you can only focus
Speaker 2: on it if you do, like find a way to
Speaker 2: ignore focusing on their boner health.
Speaker 3: Like to the thing. You know, like since the dawn
Speaker 3: of time, men have been toxic and you know, uh,
Speaker 3: and we passed that on to our sons, and we
Speaker 3: for some reason view their manly hood as a reflection
Speaker 3: of our manly hood and all these things and YadA YadA,
Speaker 3: YadA blah blah blah. It's just so funny to me.
Speaker 3: And I kind of mentioned this earlier, thinking about like Obama, right,
Speaker 3: and how Obama had the cool factor and like how
Speaker 3: like our last Democratic president before that, Bill Clinton. And
Speaker 3: I'm not talking about politics, I'm just talking about the
Speaker 3: charisma and the cool factors. Yeah, yeah, Like these dudes
Speaker 3: didn't need money to be sexy and people and people
Speaker 3: wanted to like be them and be around them, andlah
Speaker 3: blah blah blah, blah. And then you look at the
Speaker 3: Republican side where a lot of them are jealous of
Speaker 3: that because you know, for the most parts, they weren't like,
Speaker 3: you know, like they weren't viewed as like charisma magnets
Speaker 3: and attractive and blah blah blah. And you know, especially
Speaker 3: with like a lot of people in tech. I'm not trying,
Speaker 3: I'm just generalize. I know there is different people and everywhere,
Speaker 3: but a lot of people in tech probably would say
Speaker 3: when they were growing up, depending on how they grew up,
Speaker 3: they weren't always the most popular people in the class
Speaker 3: or you know, the most charisma blah blah blah. And
Speaker 3: it feels like everything now is geared toward the people
Speaker 3: with the money and like the everything that they have
Speaker 3: the tech world and shit like that. They are trying
Speaker 3: to tell us we've been men all along and we're
Speaker 3: manly men. Like Zuckerberg, Dude, you started Facebook because women
Speaker 3: thought you were gross r and so you wanted to
Speaker 3: like that's where it was hot or not, like that's
Speaker 3: why you started Facebook. Like let's let's not get it twisted.
Speaker 3: You were a dork and that's okay, that's fine, that's cool,
Speaker 3: Like but like this notionality. He's like, I'm a man's man,
Speaker 3: and like I'm going to track my son's boner and
Speaker 3: he's not doing that. But this person like, it's just
Speaker 3: so fucking it's just so fucking weird, like and it's
Speaker 3: just so weird, and it's stemming from the fact that
Speaker 3: for most of their lives they were told that, you know,
Speaker 3: you're not a desirable option. And in their mind that
Speaker 3: was because of different reasons, but what it was really
Speaker 3: because it was because you're just bad people like Mark.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of Mark Zuckerberg. There's a lot of
Speaker 3: people who looked like you, who get like partners and
Speaker 3: have riz and blah blah blah. It's not because how
Speaker 3: you look, it was your personality, bro like, and that's
Speaker 3: what a lot of these people don't get. It feels like.
Speaker 1: Also like a lot of these people come from Evangelical Christianity.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a Christian theocratic movement where you're
Speaker 1: not allowed to be gay. You're literally not allowed to
Speaker 1: be gay. That community is no joke. I've been in
Speaker 1: I've been in the South. I grew up in Catholicism,
Speaker 1: which also was much milder about saying it, but they said,
Speaker 1: you know, it's a sin to be gay. They did not,
Speaker 1: and they're telling children that. So that makes you paranoid
Speaker 1: about performatively being straight. But the irony that the Christians
Speaker 1: they have a heavy, heavy, heavy code about homosexuality, which
Speaker 1: makes homosexual like makes it you know, it's a they
Speaker 1: say it's you know, you get it. I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: just saying that these people are doing like I have
Speaker 1: a my penis is healthy, my penis is healthy. Is
Speaker 1: just their way of saying, Daddy, I'm straight.
Speaker 2: I do just want to note that he posted the
Speaker 2: erection metrics and I saw his son's like is leading
Speaker 2: him in one category total duration of erection episodes, but
Speaker 2: has lower quality average erection quality. So he was actually
Speaker 2: like doing this to like flex on his like to
Speaker 2: make himself look like he had the best boners.
Speaker 1: I'm not gay and my son's not gay. I'm not
Speaker 1: gay and my son's not gay, even though I'm monitoring
Speaker 1: my son's dick.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which isn't.
Speaker 1: Such a complicated topic because it's like I don't want
Speaker 1: to you know, it's just it's just but it's like
Speaker 1: these guys are a lot of times like they're just
Speaker 1: trying to prove how masculine they are in this way
Speaker 1: that's just like really connectable to Christian theocracy.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think he grew up in the LDS Church.
Speaker 1: Are you serious?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah, Like you know, you're not allowed to
Speaker 1: fucking I mean whatever.
Speaker 2: You're allowed to soak.
Speaker 1: It's tough to talk about it, you're allowed to do.
Speaker 1: I feel like it's hard to talk about. But but
Speaker 1: but it's, uh, you know, anybody who grew up heavily,
Speaker 1: heavily religious, it's yeah, it's it's they're they're doing this
Speaker 1: to kids. I mean they're telling kids very serious stuff
Speaker 1: when they are little. Kids like that there's a hell
Speaker 1: and you go there if you're gay. That's fucking to children.
Speaker 1: They tell them that you believe shit when you're a child.
Speaker 1: You believe shit when you're five years old. When my
Speaker 1: dad told me that there was no point to leaving
Speaker 1: the house and everyone should sleep all the time, I
Speaker 1: took them seriously. And I've been asleep most of my life.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm religious. I grew up very religious. I
Speaker 3: have a lesbian mother or bisexual, but like you know,
Speaker 3: and my grandmother is a very a religious person. And
Speaker 3: I don't want to get too deep into, you know,
Speaker 3: talking about my family, but like I grew up in
Speaker 3: all that I grew up and I was close, It
Speaker 3: was close. Was it was in the household. And yeah,
Speaker 3: you grow up and you hear this and you believe
Speaker 3: it and you're brainwashed and you know, this is a
Speaker 3: whole other episode of a conversation. But like there is
Speaker 3: a thing that we also hope that you know, you
Speaker 3: eventually get out of it, right, And yeah, as we
Speaker 3: you know, folks like us or things like that, like
Speaker 3: try to shift the narrative on a global on a
Speaker 3: global scale or whatever, you know, like where more people
Speaker 3: are at least hearing that there are other options, right,
Speaker 3: there are other ways that there are other things.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, we're having progress happening. We just had this
Speaker 1: because of the progress. We had this fucking like upsurge
Speaker 1: of straight, fucking white Christians just being like we're putting
Speaker 1: a stop to this because you know, because they probably
Speaker 1: think we're actually all going to go to hell for real, maybe.
Speaker 2: Some of them.
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, it's just like you know, it's
Speaker 3: like if something foreign comes into your body, your body
Speaker 3: is going to it attack it, and you know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying, that's what they're doing. Then in their mind
Speaker 3: this is a foreign thing. They have to attack it
Speaker 3: and self preserve, right, And.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it sounds like an allergic reaction that kills the body.
Speaker 2: Is a good metaphor. That's all we can do. Make
Speaker 2: metaphors about the different ways that this is going to
Speaker 2: kill people and the country. But it's great making metaphors
Speaker 2: with you both. Chris, wonderful having you as always. Where
Speaker 2: can people find you? Follow you all that good stuff?
