13
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: I guess it first came from a Lacy Moseley, which

14
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: brought it to Anna's attention, which then trickled its way

15
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: to our text. I mean when when I clicked on it,

00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: infamous and catch me if you can is exactly the

Speaker 1: the past two and a half million dollars of phony

00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: checks in every US state in twenty six countries. Virgos

71
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: are known for their ability to fly under the radar.

72
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: We are under the radar. They called me the stealth bomber. Yeah,

00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: like which would be the worst one. I mean probably

90
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: college emissions scandal would be the worst one. And it's

91
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: like others. I guess catfishing isn't great, but at least

92
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: like they're successful at what they do. His college emission

93
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: scandal just sucks. And for those interested aries is fire festival, toruses,

99
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,640

100
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 1: me the worst scam and you the Michael Jordan of scamming.

101
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: It's interesting, Miles, you know, I think it's fair. Yeah,

Speaker 1: walked right into the trap. Catch me if you can.

104
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: Let's talk about what I think would be front page

105
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: news if the media was not biased against UFO stories.

106
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: But all right, so we've talked before about these Navy

107
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: videos that were released that showed a tic tac uh

108
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: like flying object that looked like a tic tac that

109
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: was making all sorts of maneuvers in the air that

110
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: seemed impossible, and you have you know, pilots in the

111
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: background being like that isn't possible. Wait, what's it doing now?

112
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: And then it like just zips off and they're like,

113
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: holy shit, moving in ways like our our current technology

114
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: as we know it could not explain. So I'm just

115
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: gonna kick this latest article off with a straight read

116
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 1: of the opening of this article, which is in some

117
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:50,039
Speaker 1: bullshit conspiracy rag called The Washington Post Alight. So it

118
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: opens up A recent uptick in sightings of unidentified flying objects,

119
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: or is the military calls them unexplained aerial phenomena prompted

120
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: the Navy to draft formal procedures for pilots to document encounters,

121
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: a corrective measure that former officials says long overdue. As

122
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: first reported by Politico, these intrusions have been happening on

123
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: a regular basis since two thousand fourteen, so that's UFOs

124
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: flying into military airspace. Recently, unidentified aircraft have entered military

125
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: designated airspace as often as multiple times per month, Joseph Gratisher,

126
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: spokesperson for Office of the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations

127
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: for Information Warfare, told The Washington Post on Wednesday, citing

128
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: safety and security concerns. Gradisher vowed to investigate each and

129
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: every report. He said, we want to get to the

130
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: bottom of this. We need to determine who's doing it,

131
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: where it's coming from, and what their intent is. We

132
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: need to try to find ways to prevent it from

133
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: happening again. Oh man, do you think this escalates to

134
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: you know, next time you see one of shoot at

135
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: the funk down. I think they probably would have already

136
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: done that if the thing didn't wasn't faster than our

137
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: aircraft or any known aircraft. And they're like, I can't

138
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: get a heat signature on it because it's like hold

139
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: his ice and is moving in ways you don't know.

140
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I like to know that there are more

141
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: of these things happening. I mean it adds mystery to

142
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: the universe. I'm all about mystery. Uh like that makes

143
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: the world more interesting. It's just they like I always

144
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: assumed they knew something and weren't telling us, And it

145
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: seems like they were just two stodgy to acknowledge the

146
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: thing that we all kept like having like little trace

147
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,199
Speaker 1: evidence of. They were just like, fine, I guess we'll

148
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: acknowledge that they're these things that, by the laws of

149
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: physics as we know them, don't make any sense. I

150
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: just think aliens are getting really bad at voy are

151
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: porn right, Sorry, they're just trying to flex on airspace

152
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: and I welcome our alien overlords with open arms. Well,

153
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: I mean they seem to be like piste off and

154
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: thinking that it's something like being made by like other

155
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: security like forces or other countries, um right, because you

156
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 1: don't want to just be like, yeah, man, we gotta

157
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: do some about these fucking aliens because you can't up

158
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,959
Speaker 1: to cousively. And I don't think the military mind is

159
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 1: necessarily constructed to make room for aliens, right, Like the

160
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: whole is, you know, country verse country warfare, nation verse nation.

161
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: More from the article. In some cases, pilots, many of

162
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: whom are engineers and academy graduates, claim to observe small

163
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: spherical objects flying in formation. Others say they've seen white

164
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: tic tac shaped vehicles. Aside from drones. All engines rely

165
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 1: on burning fuel to generate power, but these vehicles all

166
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: had no air intake, no wind, and no exhaust. It's

167
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: very mysterious, and they still seem to exceed our aircraft

168
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: and speed, he said, calling it a truly radical technology.

169
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: That's Chris Melon, by the way, a former Deputy Assistant

170
00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 1: Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Staffers. Um oh, he's

171
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: these are official, Like these are official Pentagon dudes just

172
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: being like, yeah, so UFOs are real. They're doing things

173
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: that aren't physically possible. We don't know what to tell you.

174
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: I would just love, like I was telling you earlier,

175
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: that we're so behind in science that like other countries,

176
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: I've just figured out new forms of propulsion and which

177
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,679
Speaker 1: here like aliens. I think probably there's another way to

178
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: explain this because we're number one forever. Yeah, other dude

179
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: who used to run the a t i P, which

180
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: was the twenty two million dollar Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification

181
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: Program which ran from UH two thousand seven to two

182
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: thousand twelve, and you know, used military technology and military

183
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 1: personnel to investigate these things. So you're you're kind of

184
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: hoping he like has some insight and is like, well,

185
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: we have theories that aren't as interesting as the theories

186
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: you have, or aren't as scary at least. Here's a

187
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 1: quote from him. If I came to you and said,

188
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: there are these things that fly over our country with impunity,

189
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: defying the laws of physics, and within moments could deploy

190
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: a nuclear device at will, that would be a matter

191
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: of national security. And he just seems like this type

192
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 1: of activity is very alarming, and people are recognizing their

193
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 1: things in our aerospace that lie beyond our understanding. That's

194
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: the dude who like this is fucking bonkers and like

195
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: it does seem like it should be front page news,

196
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: but there's like a seriousness bias. I guess, so it's

197
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: just like a thing that I mean, it's even surprising

198
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 1: that the Washington Post is acknowledging it. I mean, look,

199
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: let's uh, let's us share in the new era where

200
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 1: we're like, yeah, man, we got these ships flying around. Uh,

201
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: we really no one knows what they are and maybe

202
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: we need to put some serious effort into understanding it.

203
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 1: Or so maybe it's mass hallucinations. I don't know, guy,

204
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: what's real anymore? So they just got to clean off

205
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 1: the windshield a little bit better. Yeah, you see in

206
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: your eye somehow the cameras are seeing them too, and

207
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: so are the radar. Sorry, I'm like very serious about this, guy,

208
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: I'm like, shut up. So the big kind of change

209
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: that is being reported in this Questionton Post article is

210
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: that there's now an official way for naval personnel to

211
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: report these things and that will officially be on the record. Uh,

212
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: and the Navy. You know, it raised a bunch of

213
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 1: interest in those official reports in the Navy was quick

214
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 1: to announce that there will be an open source database

215
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: where anyone can log on and find out all the

216
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: real time information there is to know about all of

217
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: the sightings. Nope, actually they're announcing they won't be sharing

218
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: any of that information with the public because fuck all

219
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: of you. Um So, even though they don't have a

220
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 1: better explanation and have no idea what's on on, they're

221
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 1: just like, sorry, it's secret. Well this is a good

222
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: way to start it. If we can't track it, if

223
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: we can't like break it down, at least we can

224
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 1: have the reports and say, oh, this tic TAC and

225
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,839
Speaker 1: this tictak did this zig zig zag and run off

226
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: that way, so we can build the data. Like, I'm

227
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: not opposed to the belief of UFOs being aliens. Yeah,

228
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,479
Speaker 1: and I don't think the US is so far backwards

229
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: that we're so behind on technology that we can Yeah,

230
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: so it's just more for comedic effect, I think. Yeah, no,

231
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: we're backwards in a lot of ways. Yeah, it would

232
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: be like I think in a script the Future of

233
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: America where like Americans are so confused man, and we're

234
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: gonna blow everything up. But yeah, like you're saying, it

235
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 1: seems like we should be using like putting all of

236
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: the information together, like all of the eyewitness accounts and

237
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: you know, have some X files out there. Maybe they

238
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: do and we just don't know about them. Probably, But

239
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: it's good to know that we have something started so

240
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: we can learn from it slowly, gradually and maybe get

241
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: better in time. What I'm gonna say is this is

242
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 1: great marketing for Tic TACs. Okay, I mean talk about

243
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 1: the Disney marketing people. Tik Tak is fucking crushing it.

244
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: But they should make Alien Tic TACs limited edition. And finally,

245
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: what is a myth? What's something people think is true?

246
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: You know to be false? Uh? What? What's what's the

247
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: deal with kettle corn? It sucks? Right, it's an open eye?

248
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: What deal? I mean? Go on? You like where this

249
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 1: is going? I mean like I feel like there is

250
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: in this out wedge salads. Who's ordering these salads? Are great? You?

251
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: He said He's had a wedge side, not ordering ordering

252
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: one that you pay money for though, right in public

253
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: among other like civilians. Do I have done it? Yes? Often,

254
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: not that often, but probably a few, like maybe five

255
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 1: times in after like winning something or I like blue

256
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: cheese and I like bacon and the rest is just

257
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: just water. Yeah. No, I mean, wedge is fine, but

258
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: like I would never be like, here's my hard earned money.

259
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: Make this. So the myth is at a wedge salad

260
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: is something of value, yeah, or like more than like

261
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: it should be illegal to charge more than five dollars

262
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 1: for a I mean, because all they did was cut

263
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: the head of lettuce into a wedge. They're not even

264
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 1: tossing the ship and they throw it on It's absurd.

265
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: It's which is funny because that's my that's I like

266
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: the same reason as you Jack. I like the of

267
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: the all the components of the wedge salad, but eating

268
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: that ship with a forking knife and like half the

269
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: leaves or like have no fucking nothing on it. I'm

270
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 1: eating all what do you eat? Do you eat it

271
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 1: with a knife too? Yeah? Yeah, you have to pick

272
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: it up and bite it? Why, like an apple? Yeah?

273
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: I like that. I mean at that point just fucking

274
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: dipping it and just like grinding. Holy shit, you know,

275
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: I like this. That's the wave. The myth is that

276
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: you should be eating the ship forking knife rather than

277
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: just a of a wedge of lettuce. I don't understand, well,

278
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 1: because I that's what I figured it was a wedge

279
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: form for. Because you don't you know, I mean, did

280
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: you ever do this? Did you order a wedge shoulder

281
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: in public? And I've had I guess in public I've

282
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: made it in private, mab. Yeah, you know, we all

283
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: have our dirty little secrets. But like I have had

284
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: wedge ingredients I've had. I've never had a wedge salad,

285
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 1: I guess because you eat them with forks. I just

286
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: thought you'd put the ship in it. You cut it open.

287
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: They can you know, like a like a little let

288
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: his hot pocket. Yeah yeah, but I didn't know. Hey,

289
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: everybody news that gang challenge. Go to the fancy restaurant

290
00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: or a wedge eat that ship with your hands and

291
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: post to picture on the first date so people know

292
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: you're about your ship. You know what I mean? I mean,

293
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,400
Speaker 1: does first to go a man of class, a woman

294
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 1: of class, whoever's ordering it like class person over here,

295
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: person knows what they want, and then boom, you could

296
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: eat that ship like you know what you should do it?

297
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: To do it? Like mid conversations like yeah, so I

298
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 1: work in like accounts, you know, unreceivable, and I just

299
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: do the records every day, and I thought we were

300
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: going to split that. Yeah yeah, here, let me take

301
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 1: get some of the tomato. Yeah, because I feel like

302
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 1: I could win an argument about why that's how you're

303
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: supposed to eat it, Because like why would they put it,

304
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 1: keep it all together, why would it be anything? Why

305
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,280

00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: just to see the reaction of other patrons. I don't

309
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,679

Speaker 1: I got San Quentin, dude, probably not the only time

330
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 1: I've ever heard of St. Quentin. That's not a St.

331
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: Quint Like, who is San Quentin? Yeah? Yeah? Who is? Yeah?

332
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,520

333
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 1: him in St. Quentin Otis got a better deal because

334

Speaker 1: Otisville Prison named after him, uh in the cat Skills

335
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: uh is now home to Billy McFarlane. The situation. And

336
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: Michael Cohen just reported Monday pulled up to prison for

337
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: his first day. Um, and you know this is also

338
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: the same place Martha Stewart went to prison, so we

339
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 1: already know it's it's club fed. It's very cushy. Um.

340
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 1: One former inmate who has a like he he like,

341
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: served a ten year sentence for like racketeering like Wall

342
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: Street stuff, his named Larry Levine. He describes it as

343
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: quote a Jewish heaven. Otisville has a commissary list online

344
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,959
Speaker 1: that includes a variety of kosher foods, from mantzi ba

345
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: soup to get filter fish to the Jewish pastry ruggala

346
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: when the reuters. The ground's feature amenities like a botch

347
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: ball court in tennis court. If itmates need spiritual advice,

348
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: the prison employs a full time rabbi amongst other spiritual advisors.

349
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: Inmates are given jobs like cleaning, which they are expected

350
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,959
Speaker 1: to perform for a few hours a few hours a day,

351
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: but most of the time they get to sit around

352
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: do whatever. So for weekends home are commonly granted. There

353
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,640
Speaker 1: isn't even a barrier around the prisons weekends home. Damn,

354
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: I gotta go to prison. Man, Well that's different. Well,

355
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 1: you know I was in this one article is reading

356
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,959
Speaker 1: about this prison. They're also mentioned that, you know, in comparison,

357
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,440
Speaker 1: there was a woman in Florida who was meant to

358
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 1: give birth unassisted in her cell because the guards were like, Na, Na,

359
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: we're not you're being dramatic cut to her giving birth

360
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: in there. So you know, there's a huge disparity in

361
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 1: our prison system. We all know that. Um So I

362
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: don't want to be you know, I don't want to

363
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: gloss over how horrific the other prisons are, but yeah, Otisville.

364
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to make a light of it, but

365
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: it would be really funny if like just one year

366
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: or one one time there was it's like Hordass killer

367
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: that they sent to this prison, like like seventeen bodies,

368
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,199
Speaker 1: just like I don't know if they would let them.

369
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 1: They just like sen him into this atmosphere and he's like,

370
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 1: what the fun It's like when when the Vikings came

371
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 1: to like mainland Europe and they were like, y'all just

372
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 1: got all this gold in this church and there's no

373
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: swords in here, just these monks. Yeah, we're taking this rum. Yeah,

374
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,879
Speaker 1: I mean honestly, like and I don't know, but that

375
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: doesn't sound that great. I mean it sounds great, but

376
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 1: like that because I feel like in all those prison

377
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: articles where they're like it's just like white collar prison.

378
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 1: It's club fed. They're always like and then they have

379
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: masseuses on staff and it's like, you know, they have

380
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 1: like custom meals and it's like you can sell like

381
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 1: kosher food and like tennis. That's like, you know, I

382
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 1: think if I see that they have like California King

383
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: beds or something. Then then yeah, we have some ship

384
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 1: to talk about. Yeah, but I think it's their time.

385
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: Locked down is much less restrictive than other correctional facilities,

386
00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: but I guess that's because they see the nature of

387
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 1: their crimes is how they treat people. So if you're

388
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 1: doing more violent ship, then they excuse treating people like

389
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 1: you know, animals. I was watching This is Louis Thureau

390
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: documentary on Netflix about prison and he went to the

391
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,680
Speaker 1: g this arity in prison system. He went to this

392
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 1: like prison and like fucking like suburban Miami, like hood,

393
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,239
Speaker 1: suburban Miami, you know where it's like. And then uh,

394
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: it's just like twenty black dudes of dreads in a

395
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: like tiny cell and there's like seven beds and then

396
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 1: they're basically just like yeah, So, like the procedure is

397
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: when you when you get a process and you come

398
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 1: in here, oh you gotta like fight in in in.

399
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 1: If you don't want to fight, then we just kicked

400
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 1: the ship out of you. And then that's how you

401
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 1: get a bed. And I'm like, wow, I don't want

402
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 1: to go to jail. You never want to go to jail.

403
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 1: That sounds horrible. No, I'm prison is especially with the

404
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: way that just our prison system is set up, it

405
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,159
Speaker 1: is just it's horrific. And again, the one thing I

406
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 1: do when I look at the commissary list, because that's

407
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: something that's interesting. When you see what is available to

408
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,199
Speaker 1: the inmates from the commissary, the amount of options they

409
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: have at this prison, It's like, I mean, look, you

410
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: can get all kinds of things in commissary at other

411
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 1: prisons too, but like they have like three kinds of

412
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 1: cantuona you can get in case you don't like just

413
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: regular and you're a geisha tun a kind of person.

414
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,360
Speaker 1: So again, you know, they've ever been to a restaurant

415
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 1: where they offer that where they're like three kind of

416
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: either this kind of cantuna, this kind you have never

417
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: been a restaurant where they got canton they don't offer

418
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: they don't offer different like a cartoon alley like cats

419
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: into an arc and in my mouth into your open gullet. Um. Yeah,

420
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: I mean, this is how a lot of countries do

421
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: treat like violent offenders like it do be like that

422
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 1: something and like some of those Scandinavian countries and well

423
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: you have much better rates of recidivism and because Andre's

424
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 1: bread it got like a PS two and he was

425
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: complaining about that, right, He was, well, I mean that

426
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 1: is pretty cruel and unusual and I'm not gonna play,

Speaker 1: you know, anything good on the playing legend of dragoon

Speaker 1: in come on, but yeah, you will see, We'll see

429
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: how he does in there. I mean, before Michael Cohen

430
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: went in, he was like, there's more. I hope the

431
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: whole truth comes out. It's like what we could have

432
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 1: just said it right there, bro, Yeah, why are you

00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 1: how are we going get from place to place without

456
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 1: But the happy meal is McDonald yes. Yeah. So their

457
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 1: answer is the real meal because we're representing the real

458
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,680
Speaker 1: experiences of human beings, of loneliness and things like this.

459
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: So because it's it's absurd, wellmes like yah, yeah, so

460
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,439
Speaker 1: they have that's not a real emotion I've ever felt, right,

461
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: So I guess for starters, they had this video that

462
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: has like bizarre slam poetry up top of like a

463
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 1: guy like in his bed, like all dark and sad,

464
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: and then like a high school. Let's just play a

465
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: little clip of this. You can hear the audio of

466
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: this commercial to understand how you're gonna you're gonna think

467
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 1: this is fake. This is actually real. Not everybody wakes

468
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 1: up happy. Sometimes you feel sad, scared, crappy. Yeah, is

469
00:26:54,040 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: that you let me feel my waye feeling? Boy? Can't

470
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 1: we to leave this close minded town? She like clear throat,

471
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 1: she's crying. Wait that part didn't y, Yeah, that part

472
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: didn't run. And then it's sort of like a montage

473
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 1: of other people who are, you know, just going through

474
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: stuff we can. I feel like they just wanted to

475
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 1: play limp biscuits, break stuff, like they had the same

476
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: kind of beats to it, you know, right there, Sometimes

477
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: you just want so on top of this, right, they'll

478
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 1: give you a little box that will just give you

479
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 1: like pretty standard things as a whopper meal essentially, but

480
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 1: in a box, right, depending on what mood you're in.

481
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: So the moods they're offering are the piste meal, and

482
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: if you're in the UK, that would be something completely different,

483
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: different here too, the blue meal. I think they're consumed,

484
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 1: well pissed in the UK. I'm sure salty meal, the

485
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,159
Speaker 1: yes meal and the don't give a fuck meal, the

486
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 1: d G A F meal, Yes, don't give a fuck

487
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:15,360
Speaker 1: salty and the meal yeah, and so tho's the only

488
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 1: like there's no like do they think yes is like

489
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: is bad everything else? I think that's that's a positive.

490
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: But it's weird, but that the graphic, the main graphic

491
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,239
Speaker 1: is no one is happy all the time. But then

492
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 1: it's like, so I guess, but if you are yes yes.

493
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 1: In their press release. In their press release, are writer

494
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 1: J mcnapp pointed out Burger King states that they quote

495
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 1: understand that no one is happy all the time, so

496
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: they're offering the real meal. So that implies that they

497
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 1: think that the happy meal is McDonald's indicating that people

498
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 1: are happy all the time. Yeah, they're saying, so do

499
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,719
Speaker 1: they think that happy meal is like for anyone but children? Right?

500
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 1: I know? I don't Like they're like, you're like six

501
00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: year olds, like, I want to happy meal. I want

502
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: the moment wanted to was like don't give a Like

503
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: as a parent, I'd be like if my kid was

504
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: like I'm at to piss meal, I'd be like, what

505
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: the fun hear that? Yeah, Like my kid's gonna eat

506
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: just like chicken nuggets. Their understanding of Mental Health Awareness

507
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: Month is that it's a rejection of anything happy or

508
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: like related to happiness. They're like, nah, funk that man.

509
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 1: We're all sad, very one dimensional, like eleven year old, like, yeah,

510
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: can I get the misplaced childhood trauma? Like oh oh yeah,

511
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 1: I guess we do have that one thing they have replaced.

512
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: Have it your way with feel your way. I mean,

513
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 1: what are some better options they could offer than don't

514
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 1: give a fuck? Yes or salty? I think like existential dilemma,

515
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: but let's get more specific, the dsthymia meal, you know

516
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: what I mean? Like on we back back on we

517
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: chicken bucket. I don't know, Wait, what's the sim is

518
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 1: like mild ever present depression? Got it? Yeah? Like from

519
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 1: do sign from a high digger? Sure man? Okay, yeah,

520
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: definitely philosophy dick measuring contest. I never heard that before.

521
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: Jack's old cracked like engineering is like right, the nine

522
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: types of meal? You feel he's a philosopher. Jam was

523
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 1: also pointing out that food high and fat and sugar,

524
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: such as the burger Kingman, you can directly increase the

525
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: risk of depression. So this is them You know, doing

526
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: the opposite I guess of putting their money where their

527
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: mouth is. They're just giving people some sort of mental

528
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: health coding and then feeding them food that will actually

529
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 1: harm their mental health. But it's like, but the awareness

530
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: is to obscure or confuse people about mental like what

531
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: mental health is, and just like mental health means, you know,

532
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 1: like do you know fucking sad people you're like piss

533
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: sometimes yeah, or it's like you know people like this

534
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 1: from our commercial that let me feel crappy, we get

535
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 1: burger king support those people. Like that's not that's not

536
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: raising awareness. It's funny because I feel like whenever people

537
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 1: in the mainstream media refer to mental health, it's always depression,

538
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: and no one's ever like looking up for like the

539
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 1: manic dude. That's like, I'm god, I can fund anybody, right,

540
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: Like where does that mean for that guy? Yeah? Where

541
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: I don't see that. The manic meal is just like

542
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: a pack of condoms and a screwdriver. It's run away. Yeah,

543
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 1: that's very Yeah. I think we do have a very yeah,

544
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 1: very narrow view of like what the spectrum of all

545
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 1: kinds of mental Yeah, what are mental health? Or this

546
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: other one is like where they're trying to say that

547
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: a person who like lives in a town that may

548
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 1: have some kind of toxic culture means they have mental

549
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: health problems or just that like or it's the experience

550
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: of being in that environment what that does to your

551
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: mental See. That's where it's like not clear enough on

552
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: how they're trying to present it is a gray area,

553
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: Like you could a lot of times, you could be

554
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 1: like I have situation little depression where something bad happens

555
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: and that situation makes me depressed. It's like, yeah, that's

556
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: all right, and see and if that's the version where

557
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 1: you're actually trying to put people onto like the nuances

558
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 1: of mental health, then that just seems like an odd

559
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: place for burger King step in. It's also very funny

560
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: me because I know there's a lot of burger Kings

561
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 1: in like very like backwards areas, So like I imagine

562
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: there's some small town like burger King, and like the

563
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: person who this commercial is for is like, yeah, can

564
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: I get like I'm not I'm not kind of feeling.

565
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 1: Can I get to just like don't give a funk meal?

566
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: And then like the persons behind the counters like good,

567
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: you know, right, all right, lame, right, Yeah, you look

568
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 1: like you could use that. The place to seek an

569
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 1: accepting shoulder to cry on and like a fully aware

570
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: of person is at your local burger. Yeah. Probably not, Yeah,

571
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: unless you think that we're siding with McDonald's here. In

572
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: two thousand and thirteen, McDonald's had to apologize for a

573
00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:00,040
Speaker 1: print ed that was basically a parody of mental on

574
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 1: this AD's featuring a helpline that was actually just a

575
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 1: McDonald's customer satisfaction line, and it says you're not alone

576
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 1: with a woman crying and her hands, and it says

577
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: millions of people love the big Man fucking rules. I

578
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: love that. Actually, that is like because it looks steering

579
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: into the Because if I was on the verge of

580
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 1: feeling myself and I called some line and it was

581
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: like Big Max four ninety nine a comboy, I'd be like,

582
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 1: you know what, that's that's pretty good. You know, I

583
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: can't go out like that. And but the whole design

584
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: aesthetic of the ad looks like one of those posts

585
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: you have like in a high school counselor's office too,

586
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 1: And you're exactly looking at like, oh my god, what

587
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: is like? Oh, McDonald's know that particular stock photo has

588
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: been used in many a like you know, guidance counselor

589
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: wall poster for sure. I n G also did something

590
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 1: where they were basically claiming somebody was suffering from RSP,

591
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: which was just like some made up the problem they

592
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 1: could solve. But they shot at like a pharmaceutical ad

593
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 1: for depression, like with the blue tone. What is something

594
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 1: you think is overrated? I think airplanes are overrated? Okay, yeah,

595
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 1: well you prepare buses, train travel just full stop, move on,

596
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: just that. I don't think they're over Um, why no,

597
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 1: I don't have an alternative. I don't yet an alternative.

598
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,879
Speaker 1: The train is nice if you if everything slowed down

599
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 1: to like, but we were the youngest people on the

600
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: train by twenty years. You took you took a train

601
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: from what l A to Colorado, Trinidad, Colorado. It looked

602
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,359
Speaker 1: like it was beauty. It was beautiful. Um, I could

603
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,480
Speaker 1: imagine there might be stretches of time that would feel

604
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 1: a little boring. It's fine because you can get up

605
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,879
Speaker 1: and move, but it's just so time consuming, like if

606
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 1: you're in a like if you're trying to do stuff right.

622
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 1: There's not many people we ran into. That's what's also

623
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:55,879
Speaker 1: I keep thinking about. It was like we probably saw

624
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 1: six people and one of those one of those dudes

625
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,879
Speaker 1: offered my friend coca. Wow, you got one in six

626
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: chance on amtrak for a little train kane. What's also

627
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 1: funny is he looked right at me first and then

628
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 1: walked by me and then went to my body. He's like, nope, Brown,

629
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 1: you have like a stoic Warriors look. Also kind of

630
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: looked like a cop. So it was a hell of

631
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: a game, right, would be like that that guy's a cop.

632
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 1: But hey, you you won't come. Hey, you crazy hair

633
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 1: cop out of the way. I gotta offer this guy coke. Yeah,

634
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 1: this guy looks like he needs some coke. This guy

635
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 1: with the bootleg Bart Simpson tank top looks like he

636
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 1: knows what's up. Oh man, it was I was like,

637
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 1: what is anything ever? So we're basically advocating for teleportation

638
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: or some other jet pack something besides plane travel. Bullet train,

639
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:49,360
Speaker 1: bullet train. Yeah, man, you're like, you know, living in

640
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 1: Western Europe, they have better train systems than we have

641
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 1: over here, and you just like can go anywhere and

642
00:36:56,520 --> 00:37:00,200
Speaker 1: it's not like terrible and it's beautiful. So I don't know, man,

643
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 1: it's yeah, I wish trains were better here in these

644
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 1: United States. I feel like makes me clean toward the

645
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 1: driverless car. If you had the time, though, to do

646
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: like a long winded train thing, I can see how

647
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 1: that would be enjoyable. But it's it's more that you're

648
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: doing it for the experience rather than using it as

649
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 1: a mode of transportation without a doubt. You know, it

650
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 1: was I knew going in and I did. I wasn't

651
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 1: like freaking out. I was just I noticed about, you know,

652
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 1: five hours until the destination until we got there. That

653
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 1: that's when I was like, I'm tired of this. But

654
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:36,879
Speaker 1: I didn't like freak out or anything. But because I knew,

655
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: because I was like, this is one time I'm never

656
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 1: gonna do this. That's how the coke dealers get you.

657
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,360
Speaker 1: They're all right, five hours to go, you want to

658
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 1: make five hours fly? Man? It was like nighttime two

659
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 1: where you're like, we can go sleep. This is we

660
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: have a bed. Also, don't come in here, I'll bloat

661
00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 1: up man, farting up our sleeping boats. So funny are

662
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 1: in the coke car well well? And also breakfast was

663
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,399
Speaker 1: from six am to eight am and then they were done. Yeah,

664
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 1: like like no more breakfast. You had to go get

665
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,759
Speaker 1: like doughnuts or whatever from the cafe. And I was

666
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: like what. They were like, it's packed, and I was like, oh,

667
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: because old people just wake up. Yeah. It's somewhere between

668
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 1: like on a plane or like in an airport. They

669
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 1: have they know they have you captive, and so they're

670
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: just getting they funk with you. But like on a train,

671
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: it's like somewhere in between, they're like, we try to

672
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: make this somewhat amenable, but it's not like you're out there,

673
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,919
Speaker 1: but we will tell you to funk off. You try

674
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 1: and get some breakfast. We live on a train. There

675
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 1: was one yes, there's one server lady, and she had

676
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: this voice where the whole time I was like, where

677
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 1: are you smoking? Hat? How? How? And where on this

678
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: train are you smoke? But in between the cars, her

679
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 1: dining car, and she owned that tree and I respected

680
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 1: her um or blips. We we really gave up on

681
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 1: Blimpse after the Hindenburgh. Let's let's give that to try again.

682
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: All right, Let's talk about Zello real quick. Yeah, every day,

683
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 1: at various points in my life, I've been addicted to Zillo.

684
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 1: Is very interesting to just track every house's like value

685
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,919
Speaker 1: around you. And but it turns out like someone they're

686
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: they're doing some things that suggests they have their eyes

687
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: on a bigger prize. Yeah, because right now we have

688
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 1: so many apps, right it's all about ease, you know,

689
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: brook a vacation within five minutes, all from your phone,

690
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,280
Speaker 1: best price guaranteed, Buy or sell a car in twenty minutes,

691
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 1: you know, get a home loan in eight seconds, you know,

692
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 1: ship like that. And slowly we've made these processes much easier,

693
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 1: which is great on some level. But you know, there

694
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 1: are companies like open Door which want to make your

695
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 1: house like make the process of selling your house very easy,

696
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,840
Speaker 1: where it's like, put your ship on our app, we

697
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 1: can try and get you an offer within four days

698
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: or whatever. Cut the real estate agents out or whatever,

699
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 1: just do it through us, blah blah blah um. And

700
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 1: but they're looking at the more of the sale end

701
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: of the transaction, and Zilo is looking more now at

702
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,400
Speaker 1: the purchasing side of the transaction, which because before they

703
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 1: have like they in the app, I know, you can

704
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:15,880
Speaker 1: try and get like a home loan and things like that.

705
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: But they acquired last year Mortgage Lenders of America, so

706
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 1: now they are going to begin also being the people

707
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 1: who are financing the purchase of homes on their app. Now. Now,

708
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: while it all seems easy, right, like, there's there's something

709
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: about like the process of buying a home that's very

710
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: like laborious and makes people like really think about, because

711
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: buying a home is the most significant investment a person

712
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,359
Speaker 1: who is going to make in their life. Unless you're

713
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 1: Donald Trump and you're so rich, you can buy so

714
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 1: many properties. But like, let's be real, and even now

715
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 1: when we're living in a we're living in an age

716
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 1: where people's wages are stagnant and the home prices are rising,

717
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 1: and that sort of disparity has allowed for a lot

718
00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 1: of corporate landlording. You know, like a lot of banks

719
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 1: have come in, like in Charlotte, North Carolina. It's like

720
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: really bad. There's a lot of banks that own homes,

721
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,360
Speaker 1: they're just renting them out. They're gentrifying these areas, and

722
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: it's pushing people who don't have the incomes into areas

723
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 1: that are making even harder for them to find work.

724
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 1: And it just exacerbates a general problem we have with housing.

725
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 1: So that's why a lot of people are kind of

726
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,520
Speaker 1: looking at Ziones like, oh, are they gonna begin sort

727
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 1: of getting in this world? That yeah, And I think

728
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: that's why, you know, just in general, I think Zilo

729
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 1: aside when we look at sort of this new trend

730
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: after the recession of like banks and investment firms coming

731
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 1: in to buy private properties, renting them, jacking the rents up,

732
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,360
Speaker 1: and keeping people out of houses. That's a huge issue

733
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,439
Speaker 1: to really kind of keep our eyes on. And also

734
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,760
Speaker 1: when you think about anyone who's a first time home buyer.

735
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 1: You let's say you want to put a bit in

736
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 1: on a house and there's a bank that comes in

737
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 1: that has cash on hand and they can actually give

738
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,439
Speaker 1: up and put something more than you can. You're gonna

739
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 1: lose to the bank every fucking time. So this is

740
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 1: something to keep ring on how this sort of market

741
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 1: is evolving to to begin like saying like, oh, these

742
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,800
Speaker 1: kinds of things while they seem like they're easier, or

743
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 1: while it seems like, oh, well, the bank's coming in

744
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 1: and buying these just distressed houses and making them nicer

745
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,600
Speaker 1: and making the neighborhoods nicer. There's also a very very

746
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: significant impact on home ownership in the housing crisis. Home

747
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 1: Ownership is a big way that that America built its

748
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 1: middle class basically, and then you know, have kept people

749
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 1: out of the middle class with redlining. Also, but the

750
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 1: fact that after the financial crash, which was like a

751
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:31,320
Speaker 1: lot the real estate market was heavily involved, that like

752
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 1: the only people who got bailed out where the banks

753
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 1: and they started buying up all the real estate. It's

754
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 1: taking a like that is hurt in the middle class

755
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: as much as sucking anything that conservatives point to. And yeah, man,

756
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: it's scary. And then and then when you tie in

757
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 1: the whole everything being consolidated because ease of use on

758
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 1: your phone, like the same way that like Facebook, it's

759
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 1: for some reason like these these companies that can reach

760
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:02,240
Speaker 1: us through our phones have way of just consolidating everything

761
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:06,920
Speaker 1: just like breaking it down into like very uh you know,

762
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 1: taking all the small pieces and just like owning it all.

763
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 1: So yeah, Zillo, just we need to keep an eye

764
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:18,400
Speaker 1: on the absolutely, I mean really, Zilo aside, you know,

765
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 1: we gotta get the wages right in this country. Yeah,

766
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 1: and address just you know, the predatory banking and all

767
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 1: that other ship. But you know, I guess we'll just

768
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,439
Speaker 1: complain about other ship at the time. No, it's weird.

769
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: I think it's just so weird to be like like

770
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,600
Speaker 1: I live on a pretty developed street. I live in

771
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 1: mid City, and it's like they're building it up a lot,

772
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: and um, I live in more of new apartments, but

773
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 1: like there's so many empty fucking apartments, like so many

774
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 1: there's empty townhouses the next block over, like all like

775
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: super news, super amazing, but like I'm it's just so

776
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 1: weird to see like homeless people walk by stuff, and

777
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 1: I'm like the housing prices are so high, like it

778
00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 1: just doesn't make any sense. Like my rent is ridiculously high, right,

779
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 1: and it's to the point to where even people that

780
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 1: could afford it or even like what then, who do

781
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:06,959
Speaker 1: you think're gonna rent this? Literally? Like what the funk?

782
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 1: Like it was really hard for me to even get

783
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 1: in an apartment because it's so competitive, even just in

784
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:14,160
Speaker 1: the rental market, because if it's just me, okay, like

785
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 1: I want to live by myself. So when I was

786
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 1: going up against couples, I can make just as much

787
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 1: as they do. I can make just as much as

788
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 1: they do as two people, but they'd rather have two

789
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,360
Speaker 1: people on the lease with two incomes. And so I

790
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 1: was getting outbid by all these people, and I was

791
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 1: like this is bullshit, Like this is absolute bullshit because

792
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 1: I gave you everything you asked for and like I've

793
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,320
Speaker 1: got the money and then you still can't live anywhere.

794
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: You're like what the fuck? So it's already competitive enough.

795
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 1: And so when I look at like the amount of

796
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,320
Speaker 1: homelessness and like my friends who all have roommates but

797
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 1: make like a hundred thousand dollars a year, I'm like,

798
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 1: what the fuck is very What the fuck? Well, that's

799
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 1: I mean, because we still we don't treat housing as

800
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: like a right or home ownership is like not that

801
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 1: it has to be like a inalienable right, but it

802
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 1: needs to be something that anyone has access to. And

803
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 1: I think it's now just looked as an investment opportunity.

804
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,279
Speaker 1: And you have people who buy houses who have no

805
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:06,200
Speaker 1: fucking care for the community that they're buying the home,

806
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 1: and they're just like, hey, I could buy up this

807
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 1: block and just begin making a lot of money rather

808
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,480
Speaker 1: than looking at the neighborhood with the impact I'm having

809
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,640
Speaker 1: on the people that live there. Um, And so yeah,

810
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: I mean I think that's just sort of this is

811
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,600
Speaker 1: all just part of late stage capitalism as we get

812
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 1: into it, and it will only get worse. Yeah, eat

813
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 1: the rich, yeah eventually. Yeah. Somebody had a tweet, uh

814
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: a key a k K I tweeted price a loaf

815
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,880
Speaker 1: of bread nineteen seventy seven thirty two cents two thousand,

816
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 1: nineteen a dollar ninety six, median income age thirty five

817
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy seven, thirty four thousand, two thousand, nineteen thirty

818
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: four thousand. So our wages aren't growing, but the cost

819
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 1: of living is. Wait, that was even adjusted for inflation. Yeah,

820
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 1: that's yeah, I mean that makes sense. Everyone should be terrified. Well,

821
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,400
Speaker 1: and that's why people need to take candidates seriously that

822
00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 1: are actually making this part of their platform. Yeah, you know,

823
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:02,279
Speaker 1: not just the Joe Biden's of the world, who like, hey,

824
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,880
Speaker 1: remember Obama, Like that's not enough, bro, because Obama wages

825
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:09,520
Speaker 1: were still fucking stagnant. My man. I saw everyone tweeting

826
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:13,320
Speaker 1: about that level of words used based on how angry

827
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 1: you are when you say, my man, you've had it man. Yeah,

828
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 1: but you know, like that's why when you look at

829
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:21,319
Speaker 1: like the policies of Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders, like there,

830
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:25,840
Speaker 1: they understand the existential threat there is to just regular people.

831
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:28,120
Speaker 1: And that is something that really needs to be taken

832
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 1: seriously because I don't think everybody like people want to

833
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: be able to own homes, establish wealth so they can

834
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 1: their families can thrive, not for fucking bankers, my man,

835
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,319
Speaker 1: my good man. All Right, we're gonna take one more break.

836
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. And we're back. And finally, what

837
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 1: does a myth with something? People take us? Okay, so

838
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:58,000
Speaker 1: here I have some considerable um credit card debt. It's

839
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:01,719
Speaker 1: in the teens. And a friend of mine was telling me,

840
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,800
Speaker 1: here's what you do. You don't have to do. You

841
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 1: don't have to who's your friend? You always want to

842
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 1: take financial advice when it starts out with the phrase,

843
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: here's what you did? I have not good with this,

844
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:20,279
Speaker 1: Greg Barris, hilarious comedian Greg Barris. Here's here's what you're

845
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 1: gonna want to do. Um, don't declare bankruptcy, you know,

846
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,360
Speaker 1: because that screws up for seven years. And um, what

847
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,919
Speaker 1: you do is just don't pay it. And then after

848
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:34,120
Speaker 1: seven years your debt is forgiven and but you don't

849
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 1: suffer the consequences of bankruptcy in the meantime. So you

850
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 1: just dive bomb your credit. Um, I guess. But just

851
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,920
Speaker 1: like it's already fuck. Yeah, do not have good credits.

852
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,200
Speaker 1: They're just like burn it to the ground. And then

853
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:52,600
Speaker 1: from there the new growth was sprout up. Yeah, when

854
00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,719
Speaker 1: we we just moved into a new apartment and we

855
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,000
Speaker 1: had to both give our credit scores, and then Landlord

856
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 1: got back to us and they're like, this, this is bad. Yeah,

857
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 1: and then we said he's like, your girlfriend's credit score

858
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:12,680

859
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:16,000
Speaker 1: emoji I've never seen emoji of your specific mother crime.

860
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 1: It was somehow it thumbs down and a middle finger

861
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 1: at the same time. And then we said, yeah, what

862
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:24,759
Speaker 1: of it, and they're like, yeah, well I guess yeah, yeah,
