First up, the Sturgist 98 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: bike Rally is happening again. I don't know if you 99 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: remember last year, and he was also in the pandemic. 100 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: They're doing it again this year, and just a couple 101 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,679 Speaker 1: of things to just sort of consider when we think about, 102 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: you know, close to three quarters of a million people 103 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: converging on a single place at one time. We'll talk 104 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: about the California governor's recall, because if people sleep on 105 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: this one, we might get a real weird governor for 106 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: the next couple of years. So something to keep our 107 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: eyes on. Although you know you have me do something. 108 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: You might have to come with it though to inspire 109 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: people to keep you in office. Or the other thing 110 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: is we're checking on the GOP. You know they remember 111 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: they were suing Nancy Pelosi from you know, her mask 112 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: mandate because so many of them are not vaccinated. We'll 113 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: talk about them. We'll also talk about Moe Brooks, who 114 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: we touched on who you know, he's being sued by 115 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: fellow congress person Eric Swalwell for inciting a riot on 116 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 1: January six. He's representing himself in court and that's, uh 117 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:29,799 Speaker 1: spoiler alert, is hilarious. And then we're gonna talk about 118 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: LaVar Burton. Turns out he's not getting it. Looks like 119 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,119 Speaker 1: he's not getting that Jeopardy gig I'm we'll talk about 120 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: that because it feels like a bit of a bait 121 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: and switch there. And also again Dolly Parton, she stays goaded. Okay, 122 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: we're again, Like Lydia was saying she might have done 123 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: ship seventy years ago that we didn't know about that 124 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: we're now reaping the benefits of today. I mean, she 125 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 1: already helped pay for a vaccine to be developed.

One doesn't have a name yet. 207 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: The boy, his name is Bruce Dwayne, and that's because 208 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 1: her partners, Yeah, I wants called Batman. And I was 209 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: just like, I can't have a cat named Batman. I 210 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: just can't. So I was like Bruce. But then he's black, 211 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: so we're like, he's de Wayne. Brust Awayne likes, that's 212 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: our little brucet a Wayne. And then the girl, I'm 213 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 1: I thought your name in him after Dwyane Wayne from 214 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 1: a different world, but now it's also I am it's 215 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 1: not it's not Deweezy too, you know, not deezy. Yeah. 216 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 1: And then the other one, she's sleeping in the funniest 217 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: position right now. She's literally like this, like put her 218 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: hands back up right now. I don't know what to 219 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: call her yet. I wanted to be an old lady name, 220 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: so I've been cycling through. Like my first idea was 221 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: Judy because Dolly Party's best friend's name is Julie Ogle. 222 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 1: And I was like Judy and then there's also, you know, 223 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: my best Judy also known as your best friend, and 224 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: she's gonna be my best friend. So I was really 225 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: considering calling your Judy also, Bruce and Judy sounds really 226 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 1: cute together. I love it, but I'm not sure. I've 227 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: been yelling Judy like, you've got to make sure that 228 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: the pet name like yellot, you know, And I'm like Judy, like, 229 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: it feels weird to yell itt. So I'm not sure. 230 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: Surely I like Shirley. Surely good Shirl Shirley. And she's 231 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: all white. She's a lightlac point siades. So I was like, oh, 232 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: I'm an old white lady would be good. And then 233 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: mill drink. Oh that's good, that's super old. Sound like that. 234 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: I'm going back in time with you. But Petty Betty 235 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: has been sticking because she's a little hissy, so we 236 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: keep pulling her Petty Betty White, but Petty Betty Bruce 237 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: and then you have you. I've been denying it just 238 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 1: because I'm I don't mean I'll respect to Betty White. 239 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 1: I think she's wonderful, but I don't really like it, 240 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: like that she's not my white lady. It's so it's like, 241 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: but I don't know. I was like, and then I 242 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 1: was like another friend of mine was like truth, I 243 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: was like, no, that's like a little too obvious, which 244 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: was Star Parton's character. And still like anius, But I 245 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 1: don't know, Petty Betty might went out. I might just 246 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: like hold and just petty Betty is fun to say, 247 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: and she is petty. She's very petty. So aside from 248 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: just real lame cat names, what is something you think 249 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: is overrated? Overrated? Graceland? I went to Graceland last Monday 250 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: for the very first time, and I was really excited 251 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: about it, you know what I mean. Like, I'm not 252 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: a huge Elvis fan, but I am a fan of 253 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: kitchy furniture and bad taste, which that man had in spades. 254 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: So I really thought Graceland was going to be like 255 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: the ship like that, that was really going to be 256 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 1: the situation.

Like, if anything, 330 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: I want to show me a beated jumpsuit. That man 331 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: had plethora's of beated jumpsuits he's known for. Basically, Like 332 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: what's going on?

I have no idea. I'm just like I 343 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: just I was just starting to be disrespectful. At one point, 344 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: I was like, can you show me the room where 345 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: he kept the contracts? But the people he sucked over? 346 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 1: Can you show me the room? Yeah? I was. I 347 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 1: was not happy. It was. It was a waste of time. 348 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,239 Speaker 1: I could have never bet it again. If I can 349 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: save anybody from going to Graceland, don't go. Don't unless 350 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: you're like a super fan and you need to be disappointed. Don't. Yeah, 351 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 1: right to see it for yourself and be like, but 352 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 1: I had to do it, but I had to do it. 353 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 1: But I had to do it. You know what, something 354 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: that you think is underrated, you know what. And I've 355 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: been struggling with this, But if I keep on thinking 356 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: about it every time, I tried to enjoy myself as 357 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: great weight service, wonderful waiters. Like. It sucks right now 358 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 1: because all these restaurants are trying to stay open, right 359 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: and they're trying to kind of like make money and 360 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: trying to like make the most of a bad situation. 361 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 1: Like I know it's wrong. It's hard to go out 362 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: to eat, you know what I mean, And people aren't 363 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: going to work, and so they're overworks these restaurants. You know, 364 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: these people aren't even having the chance to be good waiters. 365 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: Like I forgot how nice it is to go out, 366 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: but it's not nice to go out unless you have 367 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: good weight service. And it's not these people's fault, you 368 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like they're stretched so thin there 369 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: across four or five tables, they're trying to do stuff. 370 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: It's like I ate out several times this past week 371 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 1: because I was going to grace Land and spending some 372 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: time with some friends, and every time we went to 373 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: go out to eat, it was just a nightmare. And 374 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 1: I was like it was never It didn't used to 375 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: be like this, Like you used to have to go 376 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 1: in and like great get great service. And now these 377 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: people are just like exhausted, and they're also terrified for 378 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: their lives, right because they're in places with people and 379 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 1: it's just difficult to like I'm really just being a 380 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 1: good waiter and working at a place that values you 381 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: and being able to provide great weight service and to 382 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,360 Speaker 1: have those interactions and a dining service. It's just like, 383 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: I think something that we all take for granted, and 384 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: we all really really need to appreciate people that are 385 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: out there that are working or doing it the job 386 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: and you're trying their best to get that food. And 387 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: then I think some of these restaurants just need to 388 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: like close down and reduce their service and like have 389 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 1: quality service instead of just the time. It's just government, Like, 390 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 1: let's get rid of this wage salary. Yeah, there's two 391 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 1: four dollars whatever it is. Don't live up that you're 392 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: not making enough in tips. So many people just choose 393 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: not to tip. Some people have three dollars I had 394 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 1: in my purse. I guess you could have that. The 395 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: reason we started that was because we ended slavery, and 396 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: then we had to figure out a way to not 397 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: pay these people but pay them, and then for some 398 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 1: reason we just kind of kept doing it. I don't 399 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: know what the heck happened there. Yeah, it's terrible, and yeah, 400 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 1: you really feel for like just all people who again 401 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: were considered essential, right and had all this praise and 402 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: like these selfless people and no sucking financial acknowledgement of that. Yeah. 403 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it's it's it's tough times. And it's 404 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: really true. Like wherever you go, especially like in the 405 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 1: hospitality industry, like a business, you will see them. They 406 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: are plastering all of the benefits like on the door, 407 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: like to be like we're looking for this, this is 408 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,400 Speaker 1: what it caused. We'll hook your teeth up, we'll hook 409 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: your your eyes up, whatever you need or your body 410 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,919 Speaker 1: what what like, we're good. But the one thing you 411 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: see is like the way, the ways is never really 412 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 1: go above like fourteen fifteen and then like and I 413 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: get especially if you're running a small business that might 414 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: not be feasible. But for places that are doing high 415 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 1: volume and making millions in revenue, god, like you do better. Yeah, 416 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: And in a way, it's like I don't know, I 417 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 1: don't know how we expect people whose the whole reason 418 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: for living in terms of like the people who run 419 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: these companies to suddenly be like, you know what if 420 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: we made less money. So unless the government man dates something, 421 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 1: it'll be very interesting or you know more, maybe a 422 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 1: general strike, maybe the October fift maybe maybe maybe that, 423 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: maybe that might happen.

Everyone loves it. It's like if 512 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: you're biking and you want to yeah, look, this is 513 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 1: me just this is me just doing my version of 514 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 1: what the Governor Christie Nome would say in South Dakota. 515 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 1: It's a great opportunity for all lovers of the open 516 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: road to converge on our state. Last year, the Sturges 517 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: bike Rally took place in the middle of the pandemic, 518 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: and you know the funny thing is, we saw something 519 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 1: happen there. It seemed like that was a bit of 520 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 1: a super spread er event. I mean, there's definitely different 521 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: takes on how just how many people were infected. The 522 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 1: conservative numbers are like seven hundred ish and then up 523 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: upwards of maybe in the tens of thousands, if depending 524 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,479 Speaker 1: on what you look at it. One German sort of 525 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 1: economic think tank and analyzed like what the spike of 526 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: infections after Surges did, and they said it cost about 527 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,880 Speaker 1: twelve billion dollars in healthcare costs. So when you look 528 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: at this year we're looking at something that is going 529 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: on that they project will be possibly seven hundred fifty 530 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: thousand attendees this year, so many people. Yeah. Yeah. And 531 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: the other part of it is when you look at it, 532 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: I mean, the culture that you see with a lot 533 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: of bikers tends to be on the anti vax side. 534 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: So a lot of health experts are like, the delta variant, 535 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,239 Speaker 1: you know, it's really can is even more contagious than 536 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 1: the one last year. Plus you have a lot of 537 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: unvaccinative So a lot of people are praising themselves. Some 538 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: like local like nurses are like it's all good, Like 539 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 1: we'll deal with it whatever has to happen. Because it 540 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 1: seems like residents of sturges are sort of like, we 541 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: like it because it's like an annual tradition. It brings 542 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 1: money into the town, and for that we like it, 543 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: while there are others who are like, it's like the 544 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: bane of my existence, and also like like all kinds 545 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: of reckless stuff happens. You know, last year only four 546 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: people died. Normally about ten people, like around ten people 547 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: will die at sturges from like various accidents like on 548 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:36,360 Speaker 1: motorcycles and things like that, or just other accident related injuries. 549 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: And not only that, Like this year, dude, these people 550 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: came to party because the the drug bus Yo, they 551 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 1: caught these people with seventy two pounds of meth and 552 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: pounds of co caine, six pounds of heron six thousand 553 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: counterfeit fednel pills, and like a bunch of cash and 554 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: guns thirteen guns. This was on one bus, like right 555 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 1: before the whole thing kicked off. That's wild. Like I mean, 556 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised by the amount of pounds of amy 557 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,360 Speaker 1: and like that that tracks, you know what I mean, 558 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: Like seven hundred and fifty thousand people seventy two pounds 559 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: of metamy whatever. If I was good at math, I 560 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: could break that down. Whatever. That's like you know, seven 561 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,199 Speaker 1: grams seven ounces per person or something like that. Like 562 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: you know what you need for a weekend, you know everyone? 563 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: You know, I mean, I need a little bit more 564 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 1: than I mean. My friends came for Hollywood and I 565 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: was like, bring weed, and then bring more weat, and 566 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: then bring more wet and they only brought more weed 567 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: and they ran out, and I was like, I told 568 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: you you know what I mean. You know, so I 569 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: give them, you know, a pound for realizing that they 570 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: needed seventy two pounds but right, and heroin and cocaine 571 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: and Ventinille didn't even give you weed numbers. Yeah, I 572 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 1: mean who cares about weed? Like we got yeah, oh 573 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: my god. And you know it just sort of like really, 574 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 1: when you look at all this stuff, like it really 575 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: makes all the like reopening fanfare that occurred like in 576 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: June feel real fucking dumb now, Like we were really 577 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: on that ship. You know, all the cities were like, 578 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: you know, like was like New York is back baby 579 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: mandating vaccines and wearing masks indoors because the delta variant 580 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: is just spreading too quickly l a very much. People 581 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: were like, let's go and then suddenly, like most people 582 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: are like, oh no, actually bad because when you look 583 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 1: at you know, transmission rates being low, but vaccination rates 584 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: even low. My empathy alarment is going off. I think 585 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: I mentioned a couple of weeks ago on this show 586 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: how like my ideally I would be empathetic in all situations. Right, 587 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not the I'm not an evolved person, 588 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: but ideally I want to be. And if I'm trying 589 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: really hard to step into the ideology of just constantly 590 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: leading with empathy. Then I understand missing traditions, right, those 591 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: things you do annually. I love the Toronto International Film Festival. 592 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: All my gals are up there. It is fun. Toronto 593 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: is a bomb mass city. I would give anything to 594 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: go there. I want to go to New York New 595 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: York levels of money. Now I can like actually spend 596 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: like people. Right, I can go to people got New 597 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: York money, But can you stay in New York? Okay, 598 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: I'm a cousin from out of town. Show me a 599 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 1: good time. I'm ready, So I get I get it, 600 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: being like, no, man, this was this was supposed to 601 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: be our summer. We stayed inside. I mean probably not 602 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: all the people attending this, but like some portion, some 603 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: percentage of these people did stay inside all year. We're good, Okay, 604 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: some of them got intact that I just want to 605 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: see my friends. God damn it. Uh, it's so hot. 606 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: I want to be outside. But at the same time, 607 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: it's I don't understand officials who could just be like 608 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 1: shoulder shrug. I can't. I can't do anything about it. 609 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: I just don't understand how like they must be able 610 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: to do it as these deaths are not my responsibility. 611 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: And I can't I can't that. I can't, I can't 612 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: understand that. Oh, I mean that's exactly Christie Nome. I mean, 613 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: she's her own grandmother passed away and uh like a 614 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: convalescent home and like it was real murky because there 615 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: was a COVID outbreak there but they never really said 616 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: what happened and she acted like nothing, it was all 617 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: good grandmother. Okay, Well she's just not shipped person because 618 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: I'll go to warfare my grandma. What. Yeah, And it's 619 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: so yeah, it's alarming. And yeah. The one thing that 620 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: a lot of the people locals say is like, look, 621 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: this is gonna happen either way, Like so whether you 622 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: cancel it, these people are gonna come and they're just 623 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: figure some ship out on their own. The fact is, 624 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: if it's not officially held, then there's a lot of 625 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: local resources that aren't there in case when if and 626 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: when someone injures themselves, that means less e m s. 627 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: That means less any kind of care that might be 628 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: needed or whatever in an official capacity. So it's a 629 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: really fucked up situation. And I mean even look at 630 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,479 Speaker 1: like when the Milwaukee Bucks when the NBA Finals, they 631 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: were wilding out and like you know, all together watching 632 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: the games. That led to about five hundred infections. And 633 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm sure there was a decent amount of people who 634 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: were vaccinated in those crowds too, but we're talking about 635 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: possibly seven hundred fifty thou people and it's it just 636 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,959 Speaker 1: kicked off over the weekend, So we shall see. But 637 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: that's the kind of things that are going. But listen, 638 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 1: I mean, these people have been inside unable to wear 639 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: leather clothing in public, you know what I mean, like 640 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: wearing a leather vest with fringe with no shirt and 641 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: like it was like just like exaggerated old twenty year 642 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: old maple piercing just like doesn't hit the same. Like, 643 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: you need to be able to get on that bike, 644 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You need to be able 645 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: to fill that fringe hit the rest of your back, 646 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You need to get that 647 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 1: bear just like that. You gotta get flies and stuff 648 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: in there, Like you can't get flies in your beer 649 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: just hanging out of the ground. You know, there are 650 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: grossing enough. Yeah, well, I mean not the same as 651 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: the open road though hit the same. Yeah, that was 652 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: definitely speaking of governors and what they can do or 653 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: can't do. I want to quickly just touch on the 654 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: California governor recall. Gavin Newsom. He is sweating right now 655 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: because the polls are in and my darlin, uh, it 656 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: looks like more people are interested in having you not 657 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: be governor than people who want to keep you in 658 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: office by about six points. Now, look, a lot can 659 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: be said, what like what Gavin Newsom has done and 660 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: like some of the better things that have happened during 661 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: the pandemic. But I think progressives would also like a 662 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 1: lot more from Gavin Newsom just in general. I think 663 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 1: you know, there's there's a lot of work that can 664 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: be done. So right now, there's said to be a 665 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: recall ellection in September. Okay, Like we're very close to 666 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: this recall ellection happening. And the way the ballot works 667 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 1: is first the first question just like, hey, you think 668 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom should be recalled? Yes or no? And if 669 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: that first question reaches over fifty saying yes he should 670 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: be removed, then they go to the second part of 671 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 1: the ballot where people have to shooes from forty six 672 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 1: candidates and said, okay, if not him then who and 673 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: no matter what, the second that thing goes over, whoever 674 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: has the most votes out of those forty six candidates, 675 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: that's who the fucking governors? How how does this like 676 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: what like, yeah, this is Seneger became governor? Is democracy? Huh? 677 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly? This is that big d energy, big democracy energy. 678 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: And so if you just look, this is where he 679 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 1: gets interesting, right because if he is recalled, these candidates 680 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,280 Speaker 1: like these are people like who are running Caitlin Jenner, 681 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:43,919 Speaker 1: conservative radio host Larry Elder or even this dude, John 682 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: Cox who lost to Gavin Newsom in the first election. 683 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: He this dude went he did a publicity stunt where 684 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: he toured the state with a fucking one thousand pound 685 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 1: CoDIAK bear just for why, just because California, you know, 686 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: are behind me and we have a mascot. People like mascots. 687 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 1: M I feel like this is a logic of a team, 688 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: you know, it's symbol of the states. We're gonna talk 689 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: about it, especially animal rights activists who are like, what 690 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 1: the funk are you doing? And we don't like them 691 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 1: and our people don't like them. So I mean, did 692 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: they have a little hat, did they do a dance? 693 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: Because I do like a dancing there now there chained 694 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 1: up on a very short chain and it was sad. Yeah, 695 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: everyone was like this is fucked up, Like I don't 696 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 1: know what this supposed to be, but the stunt worked 697 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 1: or you know, if you go down the list, I 698 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: mean there's more fucking YouTubers and ship this isn't this 699 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,799 Speaker 1: could be fucking bad. I mean, whether or not you 700 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: like Gavin Newsom is one thing, but I just this, 701 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,479 Speaker 1: these are the steaks, right because regardless of your stance 702 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: on Gavin Newsom, let's let's just let's just play out 703 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: what happens. A Republican wins, and let's say it's Caitlyn Jenner, okay, 704 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: and we have Governor Caitlyn Jenner making history. For example, Now, 705 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: Democrats have a veto proof majority in the state legislature, 706 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: so there's not much that the governor can do, like 707 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 1: to funk around with legislative stuff. However, the governor can 708 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 1: absolutely do stuff like, you know, take out department heads 709 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: or other executive appointees to essentially skull fuck pro programs 710 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:11,839 Speaker 1: that he doesn't like much in the same way Trump did. 711 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,799 Speaker 1: Its like, well I don't like this, so I'll put 712 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,879 Speaker 1: a fucking dummy in there and just let them funk 713 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 1: the whole thing up and it will implode and even freakier. Right, 714 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: Let's not forget if there were ever to be a 715 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: congress person or a Senator Diane Feinstein who may retire, 716 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 1: become ill, and no longer be able to carry out 717 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 1: the you know, the duties of the office. The governor 718 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 1: is the person who picks the fucking replacement, So that 719 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:44,240 Speaker 1: could be a could be some interesting congressional math going down. 720 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's a bit of a like damned if 721 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,400 Speaker 1: you do, damned if you don't situation. I mean, this 722 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 1: is the kind of the problems I have with sort 723 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 1: of like official government, right, because there's fearmongering, right, and 724 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: then people get all worked up, Oh I hate this, 725 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: I hate this. Guy shouldn't be here. I should be here. 726 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 1: But like the follow through of that thought like cool, 727 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 1: you don't like it, you but have a solid backup plan, 728 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: Like you can't just start like pushing to change something 729 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: without really understanding what the fallout is gonna be. Like 730 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 1: how can people get so worked up? And like the 731 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 1: media just gets you so worked up on the fact 732 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 1: that like Gavin's not doing a shot. It's not doing 733 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 1: this shot. It's not doing you's gotta get about it. 734 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 1: You've gotta get about here. I'm even with Trump. It 735 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: was the same problem. Not that I want either of these, 736 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: you know, I have a stance on it, but it's like, 737 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 1: know where you're going, make make understand the fallout of 738 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 1: what you're doing here, Like you can't just complain. It's 739 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:36,920 Speaker 1: like going to the movies. I want to go to 740 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: the movies, but then what you get at Joel because 741 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,319 Speaker 1: you can't figure out the movie you want to watch 742 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 1: it all. That's basically what's happening. Like you know that 743 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: movie you know, you know that governor, you know that 744 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 1: one that does everything right, that's perfect in its galaxy. 745 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: I want back by Do you know who he is? 746 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 1: Do you know who he is? Do you know where 747 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 1: she is? Do you know where they are? Like I 748 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: feel like that it's not necessarily media's job to point 749 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: us in the right direction for you. Oh no, no, no, 750 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:03,919 Speaker 1: no highlight folks. But I'm the Democratic Party would be like, 751 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 1: all right, here's the like these we have to go 752 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 1: back and waits. But just the basics of it is this, 753 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 1: we should not have a two party system, and the 754 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 1: fact that we do in neither party is in a 755 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 1: position to adequately like support its base is bonkers to 756 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: me because they can't support their base. The wealthy people. 757 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: For both sides, they're doing fucking great. I mean the 758 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: people people, the actual the actual people people just trying 759 00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 1: to make a da when those people used to matter, 760 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 1: or at least in rhetoric, if they matter, Yes, we 761 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: don't vote, so they don't give a funk about us. Well, 762 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:43,919 Speaker 1: this is what and this is what stands to happen 763 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: because in these elections, people like the people who have 764 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 1: the momentum are all of these angry Republicans who are 765 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: held bent on getting some kind of electoral vengeance this 766 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: go around, they are fired the funk up. So yeah, 767 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's a little bit different though this 768 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,320 Speaker 1: time too, because when Gray Davis was recalled and Arnold 769 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: Schwarzenegger was elected, there was another prominent Democrat running like 770 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 1: like as a possible option, So that did kind of 771 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 1: split sort of the votes whether or not to recall, 772 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: because I think it was Cruiz Boostamant, someone who was 773 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 1: running at the time. And so this is a little 774 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 1: bit different since it's only report like but it's pretty 775 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: much like there's no prominent Democrats that would potentially take 776 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 1: any of Newsom's thunder. But at the end of the day, 777 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 1: I mean it's yeah, like to your point, it's so 778 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: empty or short sighted where it just like I don't 779 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: like that I have to wear masks because like, so 780 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,319 Speaker 1: have you thought about what you want and also how 781 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: that's all gonna work? Are you just elevent on saying 782 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 1: I don't like masks? That thinking that has there's so 783 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 1: much other ship that goes down that way. It's like, well, 784 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 1: what the funk happened to my uh? Like medicaid is 785 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 1: the medical Well the reason, well, you voted for that 786 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: recall and they put somebody in who's all magged out 787 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: and they don't want any kind of public benefits for people, 788 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 1: So did you think about that? Part two? So it's 789 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: very frustrating, But anyway, keep your eye on that, especially 790 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,720 Speaker 1: California voters. Moving on, just to talk with the GOP 791 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 1: checking in really quick. We talked a little bit about 792 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 1: how Representatives Norman Major League, Tainted, Gang Green and Thomas 793 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,239 Speaker 1: Massey were suing Nancy Pelosi because they were they were 794 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 1: like they were getting fines for not wearing masks on 795 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,879 Speaker 1: the house floor because ups like, there's a thing called 796 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:26,919 Speaker 1: the delta variant and none of y'all are most there's 797 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,360 Speaker 1: many unvaccinated people in here. They had appealed these fines, 798 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: they ultimately lost. So they were suing Pelosi to be like, 799 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: this is a statement of my First Amendment rights and 800 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: also it's my body and my choice. I have body autonomy, 801 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: and you're like, fuck ODDI here, y'all, what are you saying? Well, 802 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 1: so we do know what my bodye mean in this instant, 803 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 1: this instance uh popular graze in order and then like 804 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 1: not also not acknowledge the truth of it in a 805 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 1: in a broader scope like that is wild. Yeah, they 806 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: they're gonna switch my body, my choice to your body, 807 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 1: your fucking problem. Pretty soon. We just found out that 808 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,799 Speaker 1: Representative Norman has contracted a breakthrough case of COVID and 809 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 1: wouldn't you believe it? He's like, well, luckily I'm vaccinated, 810 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: so the symptoms are mild. You're like, what the widdle? 811 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,360 Speaker 1: You're teamed up with MTG who is so ANTIQ what 812 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,799 Speaker 1: are anyway? That's where they're at, and I think this 813 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,799 Speaker 1: is just a lot of the the weird ship that's 814 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 1: going around with COVID, like especially Joe, while you're saying 815 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 1: in Texas schools too, it's very bizarro over there. T 816 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 1: which is the Texas Education Agency, just released uh last night, 817 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 1: it's new COVID guidelines for schools here we go. Schools 818 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: don't have to inform parents of a positive case. Schools 819 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 1: don't have to conduct contact tracing, and if they do 820 00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:56,160 Speaker 1: do it, parents can still choose to send their children 821 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 1: to school even if they are in close contact with 822 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 1: an infected per sin. So basically we are not have 823 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: no intention or drive to stop the spread amongst children, 824 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 1: many of whom cannot be vaccinated and or are immuno compromised. Yeah, 825 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: the children literally die from this. What the fuck? I 826 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,959 Speaker 1: don't would do they are? They do? They think they're 827 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 1: like fully shielded from like any like legal liability or 828 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 1: because you know, this is the thing you you we 829 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: would hate to see if someone loses their child because 830 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 1: of these kinds of reckless fucking policies, and then what 831 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 1: is that parent left to do? You know what I mean, 832 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:44,320 Speaker 1: what is their recourse? Two? I have recourse? Having in 833 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 1: a wild word you use right, because like you can't 834 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 1: read like what do your child is gone? Yeah, right 835 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: right right, Like you can't do anything. You know, what 836 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 1: can you respond to it? Yeah? Where can you find 837 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,879 Speaker 1: any sort of sense of being made? I mean, you'll 838 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 1: never be made hold losing a child, But how can 839 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 1: you approach something that feels like restitution or whatever, because 840 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,800 Speaker 1: clearly these guidelines are It's like it's just so weird 841 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:11,400 Speaker 1: to like articulate those points on paper like that, because 842 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: they might as well just say, look, we don't give 843 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 1: a funk, bro, Yeah, whatever's gonna happen is gonna happen. 844 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: That's on y'all to fucking send your kids to these schools, 845 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: because we're telling you this is on y'all. We aren't 846 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,640 Speaker 1: going to do a fucking thing to help with this. 847 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 1: Well it it goes back to what we were talking 848 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 1: about earlier, just about people not having jobs, Like this 849 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: is also like very much designed to impact people who 850 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,359 Speaker 1: are not doing well. Some people do not have the 851 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,879 Speaker 1: option of not sending their children to school because they 852 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 1: can't afford to stay home, you know what I mean. 853 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,759 Speaker 1: Like we've had a whole year where people have been 854 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 1: saying home, people need to go out and make money, 855 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:47,640 Speaker 1: people need to go get that fourteen dollars an hour, 856 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 1: and people are throwing them, you know, into doing it, 857 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,319 Speaker 1: and now it's like so great. So now we're gonna 858 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:54,800 Speaker 1: have all these lower income people that don't have the resources, 859 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,799 Speaker 1: that don't have an option to take care of their 860 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 1: kids out into an alternate situation and they have to. 861 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 1: And then imagine being that person. I have to go 862 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:04,839 Speaker 1: to this job, I am risking my life, and now 863 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: I have to send my child to risk their life 864 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: and then hopefully nobody comes home when nobody dies right 865 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 1: exactly or or you or you say, oh fuck it, 866 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,879 Speaker 1: I can't I can't afford to have my kids get sick, 867 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 1: and I also can't afford to put them somewhere else. 868 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,839 Speaker 1: You say, y'all aren't going to school because I just 869 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,440 Speaker 1: want to happen. And then you have you know, CPS 870 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,880 Speaker 1: or something coming through because they're saying you're being negligent 871 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: and not putting your kid in school, or they're truant 872 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 1: or something. It's yeah, you can totally see that all 873 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 1: the angles in which they're trying to squeeze people to 874 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 1: completely get through the most horrific pandemic we've seen in 875 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 1: our in our lifetimes or our small lifetimes and not 876 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 1: do anything to create more of a public benefit for people, 877 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: Like that's the they're like, fun, man, if we can 878 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 1: get through this pandemic and not give people more fucking 879 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 1: insurance and not give people more like a real living ways, 880 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 1: We've done it, y'all, We've done And that's how a 881 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 1: lot of these greeding motherfucker's are thinking.

Yes, 884 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to, because there's a millions of people 885 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 1: who were not even the ideating. I mean, there are 886 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,879 Speaker 1: definitely people in the legisla are in Congress that are 887 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 1: trying to but for the most part, it's not a 888 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 1: big ticket item for the fucking president who can just 889 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 1: indiscriminately start wars and ship but can't figure out how 890 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 1: to cancel people's rent. Yeah, yes, it's so. Yeah, but 891 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 1: the cruelty of the world, especially this country, comes into 892 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: bigger focus. Okay, just in some slightly lighter news, even 893 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:39,120 Speaker 1: though it's still about the January six insurrection. Um, I 894 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 1: want to talk about Moe Brooks, who is that representative 895 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:45,839 Speaker 1: who was screaming at the Capitol rally before the insurrection, 896 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:47,520 Speaker 1: and he was saying like it's time to kick cash 897 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,040 Speaker 1: and take names and then talking about people like making 898 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 1: the ultimate sacrifice and ship like whoa easy easy, and 899 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,360 Speaker 1: he's like, oh you guys ready. Also he had a 900 00:45:56,400 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 1: body armor on when he was giving that speech. Side note, well, 901 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 1: he got sued by fellow Congressman Erik Swalwell and had 902 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 1: been ducking the process servers. We talked about this and 903 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:08,439 Speaker 1: like was just really trying to be like no, can't 904 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,400 Speaker 1: get me, can't get me, can't get me. He finally 905 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:13,920 Speaker 1: got served and now he's in court because he also 906 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:17,000 Speaker 1: failed to prove that the Department of Justice should represent 907 00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,839 Speaker 1: him in the case, because he was saying like, well, 908 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 1: I'm a congress person and that's in my official duties 909 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,360 Speaker 1: as a congress person. If there's like a torch suit 910 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 1: going on for like some kind of personal injury, like 911 00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:29,320 Speaker 1: then the d o J has to represent me. Typically 912 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:33,359 Speaker 1: that is true. However, his defense because he said I 913 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:36,319 Speaker 1: wasn't trying to get people all, you know, turned up 914 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 1: to go storm the capital. I was talking about the 915 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 1: mid term elections and the next presidential in that technically 916 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,320 Speaker 1: made it campaigning, which completely takes away his idea that 917 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 1: j could represent them, so he could have pressed it more. 918 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 1: A lot of people, a lot of legal people, are 919 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:56,160 Speaker 1: saying like he might have been able to press it 920 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 1: more and actually figured out a way to do it, 921 00:46:58,360 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 1: but he just went and said, fine, I'm gonna do 922 00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:03,319 Speaker 1: it my own. So he's his own fucking lawyer right now. 923 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,719 Speaker 1: Which I just want to say, Well, no, ever in 924 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 1: the history of anybody who is wanting to represent themselves, 925 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 1: it's never. It's not like never. I mean, I'm sure 926 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 1: maybe it's worked out somewhere, but we've never heard in 927 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 1: a movie. In a movie, never happens, not in real life. 928 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,320 Speaker 1: First of all, Brooks hasn't practiced law in many years, 929 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 1: and he's rushed as ship because you can tell by 930 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 1: the stuff that he's finally in court. He doesn't know 931 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 1: what court is or how federal courts work. First of all, 932 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,760 Speaker 1: he's like, I want to throw out all the lies 933 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 1: that the plaintiff is trying to accuse me of of 934 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,359 Speaker 1: of any kind of wrongdoing. They're all lies. I would 935 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 1: like them struck from the right. They're like, huh, that's 936 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: not a motion you could Okay, he still tried to 937 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:51,839 Speaker 1: file it. Then he submitted this list of basically saying 938 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,799 Speaker 1: like since all Eric Swallow saying lies, I'm not going 939 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 1: to tell you some truths about me. Number one and 940 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 1: this is written in you know as as legally so 941 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 1: it's in the third person.

Similarly, Brooks has 948 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,759 Speaker 1: never settled any litigation against him by payment of any 949 00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,279 Speaker 1: funds to any plaintiff. Five Brooks has never had a 950 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 1: d UI or directless driving ticket or even this beating ticket. 951 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,480 Speaker 1: Six Brooks has never had a motor vehicle wreck in 952 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:38,400 Speaker 1: which anyone claimed Brooks was at fault. Seven This is 953 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 1: the best one.

Together, they 955 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: have raised four children, all of whom are married, none 956 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 1: of whom have been divorced, all of whom are law abiding, 957 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 1: none of whom have ever been arrested for anything, all 958 00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 1: of whom have college degrees and jobs.

It's 974 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,760 Speaker 1: just it's a very weird defense, like and it reads 975 00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:48,960 Speaker 1: smacks of someone who has not actually figured or understands 976 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:53,960 Speaker 1: like the weight of the accusation how to actually properly 977 00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:57,280 Speaker 1: defend against that. If you're just being like when I'm 978 00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 1: boring and never did anything bad, why would I start? 979 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:09,360 Speaker 1: Now what? Why would you not hire a lawyer? Because 980 00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 1: they're fucking expensive and if Donald Trump is not going 981 00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 1: to help you, then I don't know. And also they should. 982 00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 1: Brooks also doesn't have a lot of money to hire 983 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 1: a lawyer. Brooks does not enjoy catch its. Brooks such 984 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 1: a weird like, Brooks stinks Fresco is an abomination. Brooks 985 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: sinks sort is the superior grape fruit soda, Like what 986 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:33,480 Speaker 1: the everything for the Yankees books that's never ingested? Newt 987 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 1: for sweet O. Brooks doesn't care who has the best 988 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 1: fried chicken sandwich because he prefers cheese burgers. Brooks is 989 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:45,320 Speaker 1: an all American, like unless just Chick fil A, because 990 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 1: Brooks believes Chick fil A's defending the Christian rights identity. 991 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:56,279 Speaker 1: Like okay, thank you, Brooks. They're going to convince you now, yeah, yeah, alright, exactly, 992 00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,640 Speaker 1: all right, Let's uh, let's go pay some bills real quick. 993 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: We'll be right back after this, and we're back. Let's 994 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,319 Speaker 1: touch on LaVar Burton. A lot of people thought he 995 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,120 Speaker 1: was supposed to be the A lot of people wanted 996 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: him to be the Jeopardy host, myself included, and I 997 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,919 Speaker 1: will say since Alex Trebeck's passing, there was a lot 998 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:25,080 Speaker 1: of diverse hosts that were sort of paraded in front 999 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,160 Speaker 1: of the audience. You're like, look like we're trying all 1000 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:29,600 Speaker 1: kinds of like men, women, people of color, Like we're 1001 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 1: trying everything. Yeah, exactly. Ken Jennings did great. So a 1002 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 1: lot of people saw like, you know, LaVar burn Like 1003 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 1: LaVar Burns, he's nailed on. This guy is taught us 1004 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:44,600 Speaker 1: to love books and ship, taught us what you know 1005 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 1: that the power of wearing cool like unigoggles as Jordie LaForge, 1006 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:50,759 Speaker 1: I mean, we know what's up. But it turns out 1007 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 1: after all this, we find out that Mike Richards, who's 1008 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:58,399 Speaker 1: one of the show's executive producers, is the one now 1009 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 1: in advanced talks with the show to be the new host. Okay, 1010 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:06,200 Speaker 1: so let's dive into why this is god awful decision 1011 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:11,800 Speaker 1: making one LaVar and smile as radiant, like his energy, 1012 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: positive and glowing. You want to learn from him, and 1013 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:18,360 Speaker 1: he would make him like in the way that Alex 1014 00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 1: made everyone feel welcomed and okay if even if you lost, 1015 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:26,000 Speaker 1: that's the same spiritual energy right made you feel welcome 1016 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 1: if you were illiterate here, he didn't care because he 1017 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:31,239 Speaker 1: loves you and he love knowledge and he wanted to 1018 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:35,080 Speaker 1: those things together. That is a beautiful person who deserves you. 1019 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:36,879 Speaker 1: But we can also have Ken Jennings is the most 1020 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,960 Speaker 1: winning ist Jeopardy person ever, and it would have made sense. Instead, 1021 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: they brought in a producer who hasn't even been there 1022 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:45,680 Speaker 1: for a year. And on top of that, like, it's 1023 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,480 Speaker 1: not a legacy. It's not like, oh man, he's been 1024 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 1: with Alex Radbeck in the dirt. This guy understands the show. 1025 00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 1: Everyone loves him, Like there's a lot that could be 1026 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:56,359 Speaker 1: said about in an executives coming from behind to lead. 1027 00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:58,400 Speaker 1: I get that, and I wouldn't have had a problem 1028 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,759 Speaker 1: with it except for the fact he's only been there 1029 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 1: for a year and multiple multiple people have claimed that 1030 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 1: he's been discriminatory at work, mostly to women, many of 1031 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:12,279 Speaker 1: whom were pregnant. He four worked on the prices right 1032 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 1: and would just kick models off and they got pregnant. 1033 00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:19,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it's unemployed future mothers. Horrible combination of things. 1034 00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 1: It's like Donald Trump. Yes, here's some things. So. Coutrane, 1035 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 1: who's one of the models, alleged that she put off 1036 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:31,520 Speaker 1: trying to have a baby because she had witnessed producers 1037 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:34,520 Speaker 1: harassing to fellow models who had become pregnant. While making 1038 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 1: the show. Richards, the producer, decided that models skirts should 1039 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 1: be shorter and said that he like models to look 1040 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,319 Speaker 1: as if they were going out on a date, and 1041 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,719 Speaker 1: at his suggestion, models were but Teni's on the show 1042 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,760 Speaker 1: more frequently. One time, he burst into a model's dressing 1043 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,120 Speaker 1: room despite their being a please not sign hanging on 1044 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:58,320 Speaker 1: the door. She's half naked, and began berating her about 1045 00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:01,439 Speaker 1: like just literally nothing. It's just it's crazy too. There's 1046 00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 1: like I think there are four full suits against him 1047 00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:06,720 Speaker 1: about these kinds of Is this the kind of person 1048 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,880 Speaker 1: we want on Jeopardy? My grandma's friends time with Jeopardy 1049 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:11,879 Speaker 1: every day. I don't want her subjects to this white man. 1050 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:19,640 Speaker 1: Get him out of here, goodbye. He hosted Beauty in 1051 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 1: the Geek in two thousand five. Let's not let's not 1052 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:27,319 Speaker 1: forget that. What was the appeal here? I really want, 1053 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,520 Speaker 1: I really have to ask, like what was the appeal? 1054 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 1: Like as somebody who hires and looks at hosts all 1055 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,239 Speaker 1: the time as somebody who's constantly who works with a 1056 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 1: ton of different types of hosts. Who were you appealing to? 1057 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:42,320 Speaker 1: You are Jeopardy genre? Didn't they not check social media 1058 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:44,239 Speaker 1: and see who was trending and what was going We 1059 00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:47,280 Speaker 1: don't have the Nielsen reports yet for LeVar Burton's shows, 1060 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:50,319 Speaker 1: but listen when that happens, it's gonna be great. And 1061 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,960 Speaker 1: I really hope that the numbers proved that they need 1062 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:56,280 Speaker 1: to move in a different direction. Uh. Salon TV critic 1063 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 1: Melanie McFarland did a great twitter said about this the 1064 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:02,080 Speaker 1: other day, since Richards selection represents a smooth transition strategy 1065 00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:06,040 Speaker 1: and which the show's calm and comforty familiarity isn't entirely upended. 1066 00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:08,759 Speaker 1: In other words, white folks who watched Jeopardy are gonna 1067 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:10,919 Speaker 1: be comforted by this new white man. Rich is what's 1068 00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 1: the rich was selected despite the many cases made for 1069 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 1: Jeopardy to display some commitment to diversity by selecting a 1070 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 1: woman or a person of color, because the job was 1071 00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:23,759 Speaker 1: always his. In other words, they did what every corporation does, like, 1072 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:28,719 Speaker 1: here's a bunch of brown faces. Great enough, Yeah, we 1073 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 1: gave it to you. Why are you complaining.

It's insulting. 1076 00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,440 Speaker 1: It's a problem, and I hope Jeopardy fixes it because 1077 00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 1: this is it's demoralizing. Boom.

Okay, 1116 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:38,760 Speaker 1: Lyddy's come, Okay, let's talk about this. I will say 1117 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:41,200 Speaker 1: that this is all having to do with the story 1118 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 1: about Whitney Houston's performance of I Will Always Love You. 1119 00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 1: It's probably the most iconic songs of the nineties for 1120 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 1: a lot of young people. They think it's actually a 1121 00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 1: Whitney song, but it's actually gotten by Dolly back in 1122 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:55,280 Speaker 1: and because of that, Dolly Pardon made around ten million 1123 00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:59,000 Speaker 1: dollars from that, just off the strength of writing that 1124 00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 1: song and the and and then just where Whitney took it. 1125 00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 1: Here's the great thing, though, she was like, She's like, 1126 00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:07,160 Speaker 1: what do I do with all this money? I just 1127 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:09,800 Speaker 1: got very passively. I mean I wrote the song and 1128 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 1: Whitney made it a hit, or what what shall I 1129 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:15,840 Speaker 1: do with it? She invested in a black neighborhood in Tennessee, 1130 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 1: purchasing a property. Okay, she said this on watch what 1131 00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:23,320 Speaker 1: happens life. She said, quote it was a whole strip mom, 1132 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 1: and I thought this is the perfect place for me 1133 00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 1: to be, considering it was Whitney. So I just thought, 1134 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:29,720 Speaker 1: this is great. I'm just gonna be down here with 1135 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:31,960 Speaker 1: her people, who are my people as well. I love 1136 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 1: the fact that I spent the money on a complex, 1137 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 1: and I think this is the house that Whitney built. 1138 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:40,320 Speaker 1: She did this in on the low. I didn't say 1139 00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:43,560 Speaker 1: shit about it. Didn't say shit about it until now. 1140 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 1: That's non performative activism, when you are consciously thinking about 1141 00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 1: how you are reinvesting your money, how you are reinvesting 1142 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 1: your time. This woman has dedicated her life to reinvesting 1143 00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 1: into the state of Tennessee as a whole, and now 1144 00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 1: in her later years, she's doing for the world. People 1145 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 1: have no idea how like revered Dolly Parton is here 1146 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:07,680 Speaker 1: in Tennessee. I didn't. I thought I knew until I 1147 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 1: moved here, and then I really realized, like, you cannot 1148 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 1: say a bad thing about Dolly Partner in this state. 1149 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:15,440 Speaker 1: Someone will jump out of a bush and cut Give me. 1150 00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 1: Give me an example of how you went from well, 1151 00:59:17,600 --> 00:59:19,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure they funk with Dolly in Tennessee to then 1152 00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:22,120 Speaker 1: you being here and you're like, oh, it's different here, 1153 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 1: like literally every single person. So in the state of 1154 00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 1: Tennessee you can do several different license plates, and unlike California, 1155 00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:31,320 Speaker 1: when you go to register your car, they literally hand 1156 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,880 Speaker 1: you your plate like in that instance. So I want 1157 00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 1: to go register my car, and I was so excited 1158 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:37,720 Speaker 1: because they came out with a Dolly Partner plate about 1159 00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:39,400 Speaker 1: six years ago. And then when they came out with 1160 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 1: that plate, I was like, I'm gonna buy a car 1161 00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 1: registered in Tennessee just so that when I've been Tennessee, 1162 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:44,800 Speaker 1: I can drive it in a car with the Dolly 1163 00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:47,200 Speaker 1: Parting license plate because that is gig stuff. So when 1164 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 1: I moved here, I was like, hell, yeah, I want 1165 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 1: my Dollar Partner license plate. So I walked up and 1166 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:52,880 Speaker 1: I went in there and she's like, oh, I only 1167 00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:55,120 Speaker 1: have one lapt I'm so excited. She's like they've been 1168 00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 1: very popular. She's like we've had a lot of people 1169 00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:59,959 Speaker 1: moving here from California. And she's like everybody loves Solid Parton. 1170 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:01,880 Speaker 1: That's like our great being Viru. She's like, Dolly Parton 1171 01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:03,960 Speaker 1: is the great.

You know, 1173 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:08,840 Speaker 1: we wrote letters to Dolly and told her how much 1174 01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:10,960 Speaker 1: she loved her, and Dolly wrote us a letter back 1175 01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:12,880 Speaker 1: and told us that she wished that she could come 1176 01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 1: and sing her a song, but she couldn't, but she 1177 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:17,800 Speaker 1: hoped that she got better soon. And I was like, what, 1178 01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:20,120 Speaker 1: like when was it. She's like it was eight seven. 1179 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 1: Like this lady is returning letters to cancer patients of 1180 01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:26,920 Speaker 1: people who work in the d MB in the nineteen eighties, 1181 01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:30,000 Speaker 1: at the height of her startup. Like you could be 1182 01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 1: in a gas station, you could be in a Kroger. 1183 01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:34,920 Speaker 1: If it's a person is five years old or they 1184 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 1: are four hundred and fifty five years old. If you 1185 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:38,680 Speaker 1: say that we're Dolly Parton, people perked up and they go, 1186 01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:42,920 Speaker 1: I love Dolly Parton.

Everybody it's like, oh, 1197 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:14,440 Speaker 1: that woman is an angel. She is great, she is perfect, 1198 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:18,440 Speaker 1: and it's just incredible, like to your point of like 1199 01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:21,480 Speaker 1: how it's non like she had she had the intent 1200 01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:24,080 Speaker 1: to invest this money in this part of Tennessee because 1201 01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:27,560 Speaker 1: a lot of people, like from some realtors that were 1202 01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:30,080 Speaker 1: talked or like interviewed or like gave a comment to 1203 01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:32,640 Speaker 1: this Washington Post story about it, they said in nineties seven, 1204 01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:35,720 Speaker 1: like no commercial realtor would have shown her that property 1205 01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:39,240 Speaker 1: at all. They would have shown it to her at all. Now, unfortunately, 1206 01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:41,240 Speaker 1: those neighborhoods and I know which should just like she's 1207 01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:43,720 Speaker 1: talking about East Natural for the primarily for the most part, 1208 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,960 Speaker 1: and also out south our neighborhoods that are becoming extremely 1209 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:52,480 Speaker 1: gentrified Germantown, East Tennessee, dwell South out South, all of 1210 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:56,360 Speaker 1: those are traditionally black neighborhoods. And to see the juxtaposition 1211 01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:58,480 Speaker 1: of cultures right now reminds me a lot of what 1212 01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 1: was happening to Oakland in the two thousand's. It's really 1213 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:03,960 Speaker 1: interesting and it's really sad because you see these black 1214 01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 1: communities that are holding on. You know, a lot of 1215 01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:09,400 Speaker 1: these people are the first homeowners. This is the first 1216 01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: time their family owned a home, and they are being 1217 01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:14,320 Speaker 1: priced out and pushed out of their neighborhoods. And in 1218 01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:16,520 Speaker 1: some cases it's working for them where they're able to 1219 01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 1: like sell their house for five hundred, six hundred, seven 1220 01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars. But for the most part, those people don't. 1221 01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:23,640 Speaker 1: Some of them don't own their homes, so the people 1222 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:25,680 Speaker 1: who own them are selling them right underneath them. They 1223 01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:27,800 Speaker 1: could have been renting for the last twenty seven years, 1224 01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:30,000 Speaker 1: and they're being put out in the street because some 1225 01:02:30,120 --> 01:02:32,240 Speaker 1: asshole like meat from California wants to come and move 1226 01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:34,080 Speaker 1: here and buy that house. I mean, I didn't buy 1227 01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:35,480 Speaker 1: a house any Nashville. I bought it out in the 1228 01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:38,680 Speaker 1: six But it's a real problem right now. So the 1229 01:02:38,720 --> 01:02:41,640 Speaker 1: fact that she decided to invest in by by bringing 1230 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:45,400 Speaker 1: money into by doing business there, and she has her basically, 1231 01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:49,200 Speaker 1: she's has her management firm, her label, her song publishing 1232 01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:51,800 Speaker 1: kind of company. She has a whole like creative complex 1233 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:53,960 Speaker 1: that she creates things at and the fact that she 1234 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:55,680 Speaker 1: does it there and she did it so long ago, 1235 01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:58,439 Speaker 1: is like, dude, she's a HiCon. Like people aren't thinking 1236 01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:00,760 Speaker 1: about that and another thing. It's all it's like she 1237 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:03,800 Speaker 1: said no to Elvis, I will always love you. Elvis 1238 01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:06,280 Speaker 1: wanted to buy that song from her before Dolly Parton. 1239 01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 1: You wanted to record that song, and she told him 1240 01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:11,920 Speaker 1: no because he and Colonel whatever, the Colonel Sanders whatever 1241 01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:16,520 Speaker 1: his manager's name was, refused didn't want her to have publishing. 1242 01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:18,840 Speaker 1: They wanted her to give up her publishing part. And 1243 01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:22,720 Speaker 1: so that's why she said no to Elvis of a 1244 01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:26,440 Speaker 1: generation and you all want to deny her actual pay. 1245 01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:32,040 Speaker 1: You're out here, she wrote, And that's what she said 1246 01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:34,400 Speaker 1: because most and honestly, most women were not in a 1247 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:37,720 Speaker 1: position to be selling catalog or to be selling songs. 1248 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:39,840 Speaker 1: And the fact that she wrote that song, and you 1249 01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:42,680 Speaker 1: also think about that song and its totality. She wrote 1250 01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:46,439 Speaker 1: that song as a break up letter to get out 1251 01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 1: of her situation where he is oppressed by a man 1252 01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:51,000 Speaker 1: like she needed to get out of there, to get 1253 01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 1: out of a relationship with Porter Wagner. So she wrote 1254 01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 1: the song. That's how she convinced him to let her 1255 01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:57,640 Speaker 1: go and to live her life and not just be 1256 01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:00,320 Speaker 1: a girl singer in her band. In his band wrote 1257 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,760 Speaker 1: the song, she gave it to him and he said, okay, 1258 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:04,600 Speaker 1: I'll break your contract and let you go, but only 1259 01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:07,200 Speaker 1: if you let me produce this song. Because it was 1260 01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:09,000 Speaker 1: that fucking good. And she wrote it on the same 1261 01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:13,560 Speaker 1: day as Joline, by the way, which is bonkers to me. 1262 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:18,080 Speaker 1: And then to have right, having such longevity, to say 1263 01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:20,200 Speaker 1: no to Elvis and then to write wait flight person. 1264 01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:22,000 Speaker 1: And I don't know if either of you have ever 1265 01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:25,000 Speaker 1: heard or read Dolly Parton talk about what it was 1266 01:04:25,040 --> 01:04:27,400 Speaker 1: like for her when she heard Whitney's version the first time. 1267 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:31,520 Speaker 1: It's like this beautiful story where she basically she knew 1268 01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:33,680 Speaker 1: a Whitney used someonere She thought she had a beautiful voice. 1269 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:36,000 Speaker 1: The deal was right, she said, go ahead record the song, 1270 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:37,800 Speaker 1: but she never heard any of the cuts. So the 1271 01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,080 Speaker 1: first time she heard Whitney's version of it was on 1272 01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:42,560 Speaker 1: the radio. She said she was driving in her car 1273 01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:45,600 Speaker 1: and then she heard it and she was like, is 1274 01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:49,160 Speaker 1: this my song? Is this thy song? And then she 1275 01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,640 Speaker 1: said she didn't recognize it because what Whitney had done 1276 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:54,200 Speaker 1: to it was more beautiful than she could ever imagine. 1277 01:04:54,240 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 1: That she had to pull her car over because Whitney's 1278 01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:00,920 Speaker 1: voice was so strong and so perfect, and she felt like, well, 1279 01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be able to sing this song again 1280 01:05:02,600 --> 01:05:07,040 Speaker 1: because this is a whole new song. I have soul 1281 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:09,560 Speaker 1: into this song. And so she sat in her card 1282 01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:11,440 Speaker 1: and she listened to the whole thing on the radio 1283 01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:13,880 Speaker 1: and then went home and like wrote her a letter 1284 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:15,680 Speaker 1: and told her how beautiful she thought was. Because Dolly 1285 01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:18,880 Speaker 1: is also famous for she doesn't email. She needs faxes. 1286 01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:22,400 Speaker 1: To this day, she faxes or she types up. She 1287 01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 1: has her own stationary and so she will write it 1288 01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 1: all up and she will type it up and then 1289 01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:27,920 Speaker 1: she will sign it with her big girly handwriting, and 1290 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:29,400 Speaker 1: then she will give it to someone and say fact 1291 01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,560 Speaker 1: this to song and so, and they will fax it 1292 01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:33,360 Speaker 1: or they will scan it and then email if someone 1293 01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:37,840 Speaker 1: because nobody got facts no more. But Dolly, do you 1294 01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:40,480 Speaker 1: have a fax machine? Just so in case if she's like, 1295 01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:42,200 Speaker 1: oh can I fax, You're like, oh, you bet, I 1296 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,440 Speaker 1: got a motherfucker.

It was not for me. 1324 01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:04,520 Speaker 1: It was it's it's a horse farm. It's a horse show, 1325 01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:08,240 Speaker 1: so like it smells like horses, and like I was 1326 01:07:08,280 --> 01:07:12,520 Speaker 1: just like, oh yeah, like real civil war theme before 1327 01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:14,680 Speaker 1: they had to alter it. So it still kind of 1328 01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:16,440 Speaker 1: has a civil War theme, but it's like light, like 1329 01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:18,560 Speaker 1: they've definitely cleaned it up, like there's now it just 1330 01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:21,560 Speaker 1: makes no sense. They also now have like an appropriate 1331 01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:24,040 Speaker 1: like an appropriate thing about like Native American culture that 1332 01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:25,800 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, guys, no, this is it's going 1333 01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:27,520 Speaker 1: to be a matter of months before they come for 1334 01:07:27,560 --> 01:07:29,280 Speaker 1: you on this like you've got to stop this fortion 1335 01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:33,440 Speaker 1: of the show. They've got trained buffaloes. That was depressing. 1336 01:07:34,400 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 1: The only thing it was that feels so violent. Yeah, 1337 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:40,919 Speaker 1: they're like little baby buffaloes that like come and run 1338 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:42,480 Speaker 1: out and do it like a circle and come back. 1339 01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:45,440 Speaker 1: The only thing that I will say that was badasses 1340 01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,000 Speaker 1: that they have three black cowgirls that are like on 1341 01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:51,440 Speaker 1: the teams and they are the writers, the strongest horsewriters. 1342 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 1: This one woman was incredible. She was riding two horses 1343 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:56,000 Speaker 1: at once. She was riding them upside down. She jumped 1344 01:07:56,040 --> 01:07:59,280 Speaker 1: through a freaking flaming circle like she was badass. So 1345 01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:04,640 Speaker 1: birth counts. They do have a diverse, you know, cast 1346 01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:06,600 Speaker 1: of people that are doing things, but the whole concept 1347 01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:09,440 Speaker 1: is just like so wild.
