00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:25,920
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, So, without further ado, here is the Weekly Zeitgeist. Really, Katie,

5
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 1: what's something overrated? What some of you think is overrated?

6
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: And I would say growing basil for your own pesto?

7
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you why. Row. Yeah, you grow basil. Look,

8
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: you get little seeds, you put them in the dirt. Wow,

9
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 1: you start growing basil. It's great. You're now the mother

10
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 1: to basil. And you love it and you take care

11
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,959
Speaker 1: of it, and it grows big and strong, and you're

12
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: really careful, and you you know, you're like, Okay, I

13
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: gotta wait until you're big enough so that I can

14
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: make pesto because I don't want to, you know, kill

15
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 1: the plant because it's my baby. Can only shave off

16
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: a little bit of the leaves for the pesto. And

17
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: it grows big and strong, and then guess what happens?

18
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: A fits happens. Now you got a fan's on your plan.

19
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: You're like, all right, every day is a battle. Every

20
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: day I'm going in trying to get these fits off

21
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 1: the basil, and then a heat wave comes and then

22
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 1: it kills some of your basil, and then you're like, well,

23
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: at least maybe the heat wave will kill the aphans,

24
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: but no, the epans are alive. The basil is dead.

25
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: So now you got a fid pesto. And this applies

26
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: to everyone, I believe, And no, yeah, I'm very relatable.

27
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: Um not even a reference to the recent heat wave.

28
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: I think we're still in the midst of in the Southwest. Yes, okay, well,

29
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 1: I'm I support you in the battle against a fits.

30
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 1: How do you fight a fits? Like you gotta pluck

31
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: them off and you just shake the ship. Get a

32
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: Tweezer situation. Yeah, you get a pair of tweezers and

33
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 1: each one and you hold it aloft to the rest

34
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: of them, and you're like, this is what's going to

35
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: happen to you. You're gonna get just and yeah, curse

36
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: each individual one. Put them on like get a needle

37
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: and just like like a head on a pike. They Yeah,

38
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: I'm in the terrible esque situation. No, I think ladybugs.

39
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: I might sort of recruit some ladybugs for them online.

40
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: They eat them yes, oh, yes, you're right. They them

41
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 1: justticuffs with the apens, the mid combat that the the

42
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: But yes, we like these ladybug battles. Yeah, I might

43
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: get some ladybugs. I've heard things like, uh like, I

44
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: think cayenne pepper on it, So I tried that, but

45
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: then I just got spicy afid basil now, which you

46
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: know doesn't make it. I will say it's not the

47
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:48,119
Speaker 1: worst pesto I've had, right, gives it a bit more protein. Anyway. Yeah,

48
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: I think I was just thinking about your thing about

49
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: ladybugs gave me a random memory of Huelhauser Houser. Did

50
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: you ever watch that California's Gold episode a ladybug Farm?

51
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: In one of the episodes, Huell goes to this ladybug

52
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 1: farm and he's like, wow, so this is where they

53
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: go to cultivate the ladybugs. And then they're like and

54
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: the guys like very not like as enthusiastic about his

55
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 1: job as a ladybug like farmer. And he's like, so

56
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 1: how do you get him? And he's like, well, they

57
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: just sort of we give them a place to sort

58
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: of proliferate there, and and they're sort of like, if

59
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: you if you sort of lift up that pile of leaves,

60
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: you'll kind of see where they're, like the colony is.

61
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: And he's like just just under there. Wow, And so

62
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: he's like, I'm gonna do it. He lifts it up

63
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: and goes and he's just his mind is blown. He

64
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: even goes to the guy was like, there's ladybugs under here,

65
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: and he's like and he's sort of like, yeah, motherfucker,

66
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: I just told you that's where they were. And bro,

67
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: like I got along okay, and like these these your enthusiasm.

68
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if you're working with me or not,

69
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: but it's a very like pure Huell Housers moment just

70
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: about ladybugs. I think there's a video of hill Houser

71
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: sing it over a dog eating an avocado. He can't

72
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: he can't deal with it. He's like he loved also

73
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: like asking the like the owners like is that okay?

74
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: Is that? Sayeh? That makes me so happy? That is

75
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: some good regressive content. Damn, I need to I need

76
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: to remember Huelhauser in these In these dark times, there's

77
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 1: a Mandy Patinkin clip I I turned to pretty frequently

78
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: to lift my spirits where it's like he's doing an

79
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: interview about Homeland, and then the middle the journalist's wife

80
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: goes into labor and he's so excited. He's like, wait,

Speaker 1: I can't stop thinking about this baby. He was damn,

85
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: we need we need a repository of these feel good clips.

86
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 1: It's almost like it probably has that. It's on Reddit already.

87
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's fine going around on Twitter today of

88
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: like I think a BBC newscast where this guy is

89
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: talking about a remote education and then it's cat's tail

90
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: pops up in the frame. He's like, Rocco, please put

Speaker 1: your tail down. Please your tail down, Rocco. I've I've

92
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,880

Speaker 1: Rocco chat. Would you mind tail of a good Chatroco Charlotte,

94
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: let's talk about your underrated what's something you think is

95
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: underrated working for yourself? What's that like? I have not

96
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: worked in a writer's room since last since the end

97
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: of the last year, and um, this has been like

98
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: the longest stretch of me just working on my own

99
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: projects and then also the bitter sweet blessing I call

100
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: it of the pandemic, which has slowed the world down

101
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: to a crawl and which has just like made my

102
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: life so quiet and just let me think for such

103
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: a long time. Um, and it's just made me really

104
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: love this time sounds really terrible what's going on in

105
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: the world. Like, I've just had a lot of time

106
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: to work and think on my own projects and imagine

107
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: what my life might look like if I wasn't working

108
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: for somebody all the time. And it's been really cool,

109
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: and I want to do more, like more of that,

110
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 1: So more of that. Yeah, it's just kind of getting

111
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: more in touch sort of like with your own creative capability,

112
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: and it's like not beholden to the expectations of someone

113
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: else's Like I need this product and I will use

114
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: all of your combined intellect to make it for me.

115
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. Yeah, it's it's all I think. The

116
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,559
Speaker 1: other thing too, where you're saying it's like it feels

117
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: bad to say that because I know, like like when

118
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: you're empathetic, like there's there is this like survivor's guilt

119
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: of like and like i'd really it if knowing there's

120
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 1: so much suffering is so difficult, and then like sometimes

121
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: I take it. I don't give myself enough space to

122
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: not be completely consumed by it and not get completely

123
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: dark and down by So it's like, I think, to

124
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 1: your point, it's also like really good to have those

125
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: moments where you can just see, like within your own

126
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: immediate life experience that you you can carve out these

127
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: moments to give yourself some kind of you know, stability

128
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: and solace. Because we got to keep our batteries charged

129
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: for a fucking long time, so get those charges whenever

130
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 1: you can. I learned a long time ago how to

131
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: compartmentalize this kind of thing, you know, like yes, because

132
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: the world's always gonna do some fucked up ship, Like

133
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: I think there's always going to be something. Nothing's going

134
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: to be perfect, And I like I was talking about

135
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: acceptance earlier of like being able to just accept your sweat,

136
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: and this is part of that, like just being able

137
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: to accept that the world is not perfect, people are

138
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: not perfect. But I can still have genuine moments of

139
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: joy during the pandemic and not feel guilty about my

140
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: joy and like really be in the moment and present

141
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: and grateful for being alive, not not having a situation

142
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: where I'm struggling, where my family is struggling, Like I

143
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: feel like really really grateful, um, because I know it

144
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 1: could be so much worse, and so I'm not going to, like,

145
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: I don't let what's going on make me just like

146
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: make me not be able to fully enjoy my life,

147
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,839
Speaker 1: will also be becoming like apathetic or disaffected by everything else. Yeah,

148
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 1: it's true that you, Yeah, like we can hold many

149
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: realities and I have those moments of course, but you

150
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: know I can only do that for so long. Ye

151
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 1: shout out to my therapist. I highly recommend like a

152
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 1: very dumb person's understanding of Buddhism and the concepts of

153
00:08:56,120 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 1: Buddhism because I've just like started to think of out

154
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: like the very most basic ideas of like, yeah, when

155
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: you have stress, just experience the stress and don't be

156
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: like stressed out by this stress. But like you know,

157
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: they're that is part of the human experience and like

158
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: observing the stress. Uh. And I got all that from

159
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 1: this new book. I got Idiot's Guide to Buddhism. Uh

160
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: and uh No, I just like picked it up in

161
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: a couple of different places, but it really is like

162
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 1: just a very spent basic idea that I feel like

163
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 1: in the Western world where so much is about control

164
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,959
Speaker 1: and to experience emotions that are sort of run counter

165
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: to like, you know, satisfaction or just like sort of

166
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 1: like this flatlining stability, like yeah, you're like you, You're

167
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: like I don't want to be stressed, and now you're

168
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,199
Speaker 1: stressed because you don't want to be stress, And there's

169
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: your point. It's just be like, yo, you know what

170
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: these are tools like over millions of years, this like

171
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: physical corps I'm in like developed these weird ways of

172
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: figuring shit out through the brain and eyes and ears

173
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,679
Speaker 1: and all that ship to stay alive. And some of

174
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 1: that ship is a little dated. So sometimes the alarms

175
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 1: go off when they don't need to. But it's about saying, like, okay,

176
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 1: so the alarm went off on the back door, it

177
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: was just windy. It's not the right and there's something.

178
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,079
Speaker 1: There's not somebody to break in. It's just windy and

179
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: it doesn't close all the way. So sometimes it goes

180
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,599
Speaker 1: off like that and just be able to And I

181
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: think the most important part is telling yourself that you

182
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: consent to feeling that way. That's an important step in

183
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 1: sort of dealing with those emotions, being like taking a

184
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: breath and be like, I'm like, I consent to being

185
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: stressed because I know that's not solely what my existence is.

186
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,439
Speaker 1: That's just a sensation I'm feeling, and I consent to that.

187
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: That just started being able to enjoy Sundays because Sundays

188
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,839
Speaker 1: used to be the I would be the fact that

189
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: my happy, relaxing time was coming to an end. So

190
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 1: it's like I'm stressed by happiness because the happiness is fleeting,

191
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: and it's just like that's that's something that like when

192
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: even joy, uh gives you anxiety, Like that's a problem

193
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: it until you can experience enjoy on Monday, like when

194
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: it comes on Sunday Mondays here it's doing some stuff

195
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 1: I don't want to do. Have you guys ever watched

196
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: Midnight Gospel? Yeah it's old. Yeah, I feel like it

197
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: came out a while ago, but I literally just started

198
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: watching it like last night, and it's amazing so much

199
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: it talks about like very profound It's an animated show

200
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: that talks about these really profound issues. Yeah, it's dunk

201
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: and trustle uh talking to he's like kind of a trippy,

202
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: like what what would a psychonaut like? He has done

203
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: a lot of you know, thinking and experimenting with the

204
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,599
Speaker 1: psychedelic things and just has really interesting thoughts and so

205
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 1: it's like a it's what it's one of the rarest

206
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 1: type of shows and that like you can you can

207
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: totally enjoy it as a purely audio experience. You can

208
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: enjoy it purely as a visual experien your aunts and

209
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: then like when they link together, it's pretty cool too.

210
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: It's excellent. I love Katie. What is something? What's a myth?

211
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: What's something that people think is true? You know, to

212
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: be false or vice versa vicey Versey rather Yeah, so

213
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: I actually kind of I think something that a lot

214
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: of people are thinking about more now that we're all

215
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 1: in quarantine is our interaction with wildlife, especially backyard wildlife.

216
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: And people will often find like little birds, baby birds

217
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: on the ground and there's this panic of like, well,

218
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,679
Speaker 1: I can't touch it because then the mother will reject it.

219
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: And but it's like on the ground and I see

220
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: its nest. So what do I do? Like, how do

221
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: and I want to reassure people you can pick up

222
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: a hatchling and put it in its nest, and the

223
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: mother is not going to reject it. The mother they

224
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: don't really like the In general, birds don't use their

225
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: sense of smell that way. They don't like smell human

226
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: on their chick and then reject them based on their smell.

227
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,439
Speaker 1: They but they may like avoid if they see you

228
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,199
Speaker 1: near the nest. They may like keep their distance for

229
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 1: a little while because they see a human around, but

230
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: they'll come back. So if you see, if you see

231
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 1: a hatchling on the ground, or even like a whole

232
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: nest that's fallen on the ground, just kind of like

233
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,079
Speaker 1: try to figure out where it came from and put

234
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: it back as close as you can to where it

235
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: seems to have come from. If you find a fledgling

236
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: on the ground, you may not need to like actually

237
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: interact with it. It kind of depends. So if you

238
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 1: see it's like a small bird, but it's got its

239
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: feathers coming in and it kind of like can hop

240
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:35,719
Speaker 1: and fly her out, like if it's got that like

241
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 1: furry feather phase. Yeah, like if it's kind of actively

242
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: trying to escape, you don't chase after it, alright. Translucent

243
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: skin hatchling, that's like, don't inflict early trauma on but yeah, yeah,

244
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 1: but I mean if it's if I mean, if you

245
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: can't tell the difference between a hatchling and a fledgling,

246
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,719
Speaker 1: don't stress too much. Basically, if it just lets you

247
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: scoop it up, you can scoop it up and put

248
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: back in its nest. But if it's like running away

249
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: and it's then I think you can leave it alone.

250
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: But I'm trying to help you driff. Have you seen

251
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 1: those videos though, like where people like like a funerals

252
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: like the pastures holding a dove to release, but they

253
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: hold it too tight and they're like and if his

254
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: spirit will fly like this dove and like you throw

255
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 1: it up and it just like flops right back down.

256
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: You're squeezing it too hard during the like following a

257
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: little dove funeral. Yeah, and it's like there's some that

258
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: are so epic because like there's a one where there's

259
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: this pastor launches it and it just struggs up in

260
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: the air and just like the arcs like oh no,

261
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: just you know, just some hophazard. You know, you hate

262
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: to see it, but just a little relief. Sometimes the

263
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 1: um wait, So where did that myth come from? Because

264
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: I always grew up started thinking like that's the worst

265
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: thing you could do for that little bird, is like

266
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: it will fully be abandoned. Like what is that based off?

267
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: With something like mammal or something? Probably, I mean, I

268
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: think it is true with some animals, like mammals, you

269
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: don't necessarily want to get your smell on the babies

270
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: or mess with them because it may kind of freak

271
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: out the parent a little bit. I don't think it's

272
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: I just don't think there's going to be a lot

273
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 1: of cases where merely having sort of a slightly different

274
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: smell is going to mean the parent is going to

275
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: reject their offspring, right. I do think like it may

276
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: come from the fact that sometimes animals do you reject

277
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: their offspring for mysterious reasons. Yeah, like not making varsity

278
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: basketball exactly exactly, for trumpet, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yetter,

279
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: yeah exactly, not getting a five on your ap chemistry

280
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: yeah exactly, yeah yeah yeah cosplaying Yeah. Um, but so

281
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: I got it. Ye, mammals, we know that because that's

282
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: how mammals are, and we you know, we know that's

283
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: how that looking like a quote unquote little tool as

284
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: you're playing French horn. Yeah, we all relate to this. Yeah,

285
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 1: the giraffe on the dance team. You know, it's like

286
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: all universal mammalian experiences universal mammal yes, exactly, but kind

287
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 1: of second part of the myth is I think people

288
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: take it to the other direction where they're like, say, like,

289
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: don't worry about picking up nestlings and fledglings because birds

290
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: don't have a sense of smell. And that's actually not

291
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 1: true either. Some birds have don't really have that great

292
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: of a sense of smell, but other birds actually do,

293
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 1: and so that's it. It's an over generalization to say

294
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 1: no bird can smell. I'm sorry, but uh sorry, not sorry.

295
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: We don't deal with absolutes here, right exactly. Only sith

296
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: deal in absolutes um and uh. Turkey vultures are so

297
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: good at tracking smells of like decaying flesh because they're scavengers.

298
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: There have even been cases where oil pipeline engineers will

299
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: ump a chemical that smells like rotting meat and then

300
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 1: they watch where the turkey vultures go and congregate at

301
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: and you said, it's like, oh, there's a leak right there,

302
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: because they can smell the rod. Oh shit, Wow, yeah,

303
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 1: I like that facts and knowledge. This is why Katie

304
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 1: comes on and blesses us with her knowledge. Every people

305
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: who don't know you're not just a hobbyist. You enjoy

306
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 1: this is a bit of an area of study, at

307
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 1: least just generally in the biology of the sciences. That's

308
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 1: why we can That's why I call you for medical advice,

309
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: and you keep I'm not the person to tell you this,

310
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 1: and I'm like, but if you could smell this scab,

311
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: I feel like you would tell me what to do it.

312
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 1: Does it smell like almonds because that's gang green or

313
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: you spilled almonds on natural uncooked almonds? Is it if

314
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: you taste toast you're having a stroke? Which one is

315
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 1: the one when you're heading It depends, like, are you

316
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 1: eating toast at the time. I'll tell you this, this

317
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:04,879
Speaker 1: scab doesn't taste like almonds. I mean, does it tastes

318
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: like toast? Though, oh no, no, no, God would be

319
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 1: absolutely a weird scab at that point. It's very like

320
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 1: salty and said we'll get into that later while our

321
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 1: listeners dry heave. But first we'll take a quick break

322
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: and we'll be right back. And we're back and all

323
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 1: this convention talk, I just want to take a moment

324
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 1: to spotlight some of the thinkers, uh, some of the

325
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 1: luminaries from the right that will be speaking at the

326
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: Republican Convention. UM, because it's truly truly an impressive roster

327
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 1: they've put together. Um, since it is the racist fourth quarter, uh,

328
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 1: and it's time to just bring out all the all

329
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: the tools to try and win this game. Uh. It

330
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 1: turns out that actually the the rooster of speakers looks

331
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 1: more like it's just stacked with culture war icons and

332
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: people that symbolize the violent rejection of our pleas for equality.

333
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: So uh, the first one of the first people we

334
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: caught wind of that is going to be speaking at

335
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 1: the convention is the Maga team himself, Nicholas Sandman, who

336
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 1: was the boy who wore the Maga hat and then

337
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: was in a face to face confrontation with a tribal

338
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 1: elder uh and then sued CNN in the Washington Post,

339
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: who he just settled his multimillion dollar lawsuits with. I

340
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: don't know how much how he settled. CNN settled his

341
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 1: two seventy five million dollar case. The Washington Post settled

342
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 1: his two hund fifty million dollar case. We don't know

343
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: what the settlement was for, but they settled. Um. So

344
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what he is going to bring

345
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,360
Speaker 1: to this presidential convention. Um, but maybe he will talk

346
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 1: about how hard it is to go to private school

347
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 1: and then maybe scared the rest of America being like, well,

348
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 1: you know, Kamala Harris will make everyone start using s

349
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: curl in on their hair in this country, uh and

350
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 1: texturizer if she is in the White House. I don't

351
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: know exactly what everyone is getting. It's like and if

352
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 1: your baby hairs aren't laid, you will go to jail.

353
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: So the other thing, I really don't know what it's

354
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 1: what the point is of him, um, but I think

355
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 1: it's really just this whole thing of like you you

356
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,439
Speaker 1: put a kid up like that who They're like, they

357
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: completely got it wrong because the full context of the video, granted,

358
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: like shows a little bit more than like what was

359
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: sort of cropped out. But the fact is they're going

360
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 1: to just prop him up there to be like you see,

361
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: liberals hate our great nation, uh and they hate everything

362
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: about America. And I think that's the sort of the

363
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: the you know, role he will serve can we when

364
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: was that video because in my mind it was like

365
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 1: seven years ago already. Yeah, the Magoteen. Honestly, it was

366
00:20:55,200 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 1: probably last summer. I mean, um, in addition to all

367
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 1: of the other larger atrocities, I also would like to

368
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: say relevance. Yeah, it's so we have him going. I

369
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,719
Speaker 1: just want to say quickly, we made him famous. Liberals

370
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 1: made him famous. Um, And it's our fault, you guys.

371
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: We have to stop trying to freaking We talked about

372
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 1: this on this podcast before. Stop trying to dunk on

373
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: Republicans and and you know racist because you're giving them money.

374
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 1: We just gave this boy millions of dollars and he's

375
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: a piece of ship. And it's our fault. Stop retweeting

376
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: the stuff so that you can dunk on somebody. You're

377
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 1: making them rich. So how do you how would you

378
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: what would you do? Nick the maggotine shows up? You

379
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: just it's it's about like what you're saying is to

380
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 1: resist that temptation to just sort of have like the

381
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: ego stacking of being like if he's down here racism,

382
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be up here for having a take on

383
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 1: his racism, because what good does it do? Racists aren't

384
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 1: reading um, you know, white fragility. They don't give a

385
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: funk about being better. So you're not teaching anybody anything.

386
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: If you're at the actual protests and you want to

387
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: come up to the liberal boy and I don't know,

388
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,360
Speaker 1: give him a shake and then absolutely. But if you're

389
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 1: on Twitter, all you're doing is trying to get likes

390
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: and retweets. And guess what, you're getting him likes and

391
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 1: retweets too, And now you just got the little boy paid.

392
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: We all have to stop that. The blonde woman autumn,

393
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: blond women who say stupid stuff, that black lady with

394
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 1: her dry ass hair. We gotta stop talking about her.

395
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 1: But we have to stop. Yes, we have to stop

396
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,439
Speaker 1: empowering them. You know, she is a she's got more

397
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: fire patrol. She should more fire patrol than like California,

398
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 1: like in our brush fires. Her hair is drier than

399
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,640
Speaker 1: the brush. Honey, it can go up and flax. See

400
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: what I'm doing it right now? We have to stop.

401
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 1: See But that's what I'm saying to your point, though,

402
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 1: can you do it? Because I'm and I'm not trying

403
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: to put you out there, but I have a feeling

404
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: if you saw some ship. You knew you could have

405
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 1: a funny take on, you would be tweeting that ship too.

406
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 1: I really don't do it when it comes to white

407
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 1: racist I stopped doing it a long time ago. You'll

408
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: never see me retweeting them. I think I have dragged

409
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 1: miss dry Hair once or twice. UM and Terry Crews obviously,

410
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: because he can't just sit there and eat his dar Roy's.

411
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: He always got to be talking. But even that, I'm

412
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:07,120
Speaker 1: trying to limit it. All right, let's talk about Steve Bannon.

413
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 1: I've missed. I've missed just seeing his face plashed all

414
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: over the news. Uh. And he apparently is as sloppy

415
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: with his embezzlement and uh fraud as he is with

416
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: getting dressed in the morning. The way that he puts

417
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: on like four shirts. Do you think that's intentional or

418
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,439
Speaker 1: do you think he just like forgets that he's already

419
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: got a shirt on from He probably read like some

420
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: article from like, yeah, two thousand and six. I was

421
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 1: about layering and he just talked that like concept very literally,

422
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: and he's like, yeah, just stacking up. Yeah, I'll wear him.

423
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: I'm wearing eighteen shirts at a time basically anytime. So

424
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 1: who's a joke on because you look like a regular guy. Yeah,

425
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: the whole thing was that whole campaign if you remember,

426
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: I think it's back in when it was the whole like, well,

427
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,719
Speaker 1: if the damn's are gonna try and use money less recklessly,

428
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: than maybe we should fund our own build the Wall campaign.

429
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: It was like, we build the Wall go fund me

430
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: raised over twenty five million dollars for this ship, uh,

431
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: just for their you know, wonderful monument to white supremacy.

432
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 1: And so the four men involved in sort of like

433
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 1: orchestrating this campaign. One they're all facing one count of

434
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,919
Speaker 1: conspiracy to commit wire fraud and one count of conspiracy

435
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: to commit money laundering. Uh, and each charge carries a

436
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: maximum prison sentence of twenty years, which we've seen doesn't

437
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 1: really matter when people in orbit of Trump face these

438
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: kinds of consequences. But either way, we've been keeping up

439
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 1: with this story as it developed, because first it was

440
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: like how the everyone was like, how the funk are

441
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 1: you going to even do that? Like you can't just

442
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: build a fucking border wall because you have the money

443
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: for like there's all this like these environmental impact reports,

444
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: is all these permits that have to be pulled to

445
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 1: be done properly, and they're like yeah, yeah, we're good,

446
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,880
Speaker 1: Like we can figure it out. We can figure it out.

447
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: At one point he was like enlisting like the Oath

448
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: Keepers and other like right wing militia is to like

449
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 1: help out they kind of like like trespassing into or

450
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 1: like passing over into Mexico. Like that was the last

451
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:14,360
Speaker 1: time we checked in on them. Was international fucking dilemma,

452
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: where like the Mexican government is like, you're knocking debris

453
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: into Mexico. Also like this is part of Mexico and

454
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: you absolutely don't own this land. And we're also talking

455
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 1: about like disrupting again the flow of like wildlife or

456
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 1: water and things like that. There's nothing you can't just

457
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 1: do this because you have the money, alright, alright, right,

458
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: all right, well figured out we figured out Cut two.

459
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: Now they have just been exposed where apparently what they

460
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: were doing was after that twenty five million was raised

461
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 1: go fund, he was like, you have to actually designate

462
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: the recipient for this money. It can't just be like

463
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: all right, we raised the money like or else. You

464
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 1: can't use this platform like that. So what they did

465
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: was create their own nonprofit called we build the wall,

466
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: sent all the money over there. Then at that point

467
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: they're like, and this is obviously, this is because we

468
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 1: care about the safety of America and keeping Browns the

469
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: funk out. So what we're gonna do is we're not

470
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: going to take any kind of salary or anything like that.

471
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: Cut too. We're finding out the amounts of money like

472
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,959
Speaker 1: the grand went to the head of it through all

473
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: these different shell game companies and being like, let's give

474
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 1: it to this nonprofit, then put in this bank, and

475
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: then we'll do a wire transfer to this one. At

476
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,399
Speaker 1: one point Bannon was like held like a million dollars

477
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: in one of his nonprofits and then gave a huge

478
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 1: chunk back to the founder of the group, but then

479
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 1: saved had a ton of the money for his own benefit,

480
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: and so that's how he got pulled into this whole thing.

481
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: So they were just doing a little bit of old

482
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: shell game in but it really is the most American

483
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 1: scam where you're sort of like, hey, the threat of

484
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: the Browns, look over there, white people, and then be like,

485
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: you know, right, Brian Cole Fadge, that's the name of

486
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: one of the other guys who got arrested that I

487
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 1: remembered from that's the guy who got checked in on

488
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: Arrested Me. Like they got a text on their phone

489
00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 1: while they were in their mansion. They're like, yeah, it's

490
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 1: like the first text they get is w y D.

491
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 1: Who's this from? That's the city attorney. Are you in

492
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 1: a place to receive like a little bit of bad news? Yeah,

493
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,880
Speaker 1: it's gonna be fine, but oh okay, well then yeah,

494
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: why don't you message me after your therapeutic don't don't

495
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: want to interrupt that. He's like, I'm actually out to

496
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 1: eat without a mask on Can I call you back? Problem?

497
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 1: Wasn't this the plot of season four of Arrested Development.

498
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: They're a whole thing, like a whole scheme with building

499
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 1: the border wall, but it was all like a shell game.

500
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 1: I feel like that was that the Netflix version? Yeah?

501
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:46,359
Speaker 1: I love that show so much and something, but that

502
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: brings zero bells to me, and I'm like, did I

503
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 1: even watch it? Yeah? That's like that had to be

504
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,679
Speaker 1: the Netflix one because I only committed the Fox version

505
00:27:54,880 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: to memory. Yeah that was Fox. Yeah, isn't that That's

506
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: blowing my mind? Because I had it on DVD. It

507
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: was given to me like as a Christmas gift because

508
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 1: I asked for it. Yeah, I remember. It was like

509
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: a thing where commedys be like, dude, do you know

510
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 1: about Arrested Development? Funny, here's here's the Blessed DVD you

511
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: can pass around. Was I I was at Rick Fox

512
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 1: is like UM gaming yesterday. Yeah it was Rick Vanessa.

513
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 1: I'm there. It was his E Sports company. I think

514
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 1: he's out of it now, but I was with Jared

515
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: Jefferies doing like an interview. Um, he used to play

516
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: for the Nuggets and then he became a recruiter for

517
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: like E sports. Anyway, that's just the background and has

518
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,239
Speaker 1: nothing to do with what I'm about to tell you. Um,

519
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 1: I go to the bathroom, go to the bathroom at

520
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 1: this company, women's maybe, it says maybe and yeah, Like

521
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 1: the women's bathroom says maybe, and the boy's bathroom says

522
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: George Mike. Like, it doesn't say the women's it doesn't

523
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: say like women's. It just says maybe and then the yeah,

524
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 1: George Michael. It's so funny to think about Arrested Development

525
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: as a Fox show. There was like a period Fox show.

526
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: But yeah, there's the connection. I mean, now, Who's night.

527
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: Obviously it's all. But there was a period where like

528
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 1: Fox was the only channel where you could have a

529
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: protagonist that wasn't like the same guy like it wasn't

530
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 1: wasn't just like some like very kind like good person um,

531
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: like the anti heroes and stuff. Oh like with the

532
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 1: shows that they had the show everybody else it had

533
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 1: to be like this guy's a doctor and uh he

534
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: has like daddy issues but ultimately deep down a very

535
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: good guy. I feel like Jack Bower's violent is fuck

536
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: and he's trying to kick heroin like the that's as

537
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: edgy as we got in the nineties guys. Um, and

538
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 1: he acts extra judicially coming to Fox. You're gonna love it,

539
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: doesn't He bite someone's a word at one point and

540
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 1: one of the same Remember that show was popping up.

541
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 1: I just could not get into it because I don't

542
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 1: know why I didn't bite me the same way. Yeah

543
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: everyone else, Like I was like, I don't know, man,

544
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: I was like over here on Gray's Anatomy ship. Yeah,

545
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm gonna just smoke twenty four joints and

546
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: like watch like music videos on a loop. It's like

547
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: that was like so much of my media diet back

548
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: four was the same writers as Homeland, and they wrote

549
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 1: it as they went along, and so it just got

550
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 1: so absurd. I think it's love to see that though,

551
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: and they're like, it's getting away from us. I felt

552
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 1: like they can't do anything about it, right. Uh yeah.

553
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: I think it's the same thing as like soap operas,

554
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 1: where they're just like, we got no roadmap here. We're

555
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 1: just like, what would be the wildest ship to happen

556
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 1: this episode back from the Dead, that happened that happened

557
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 1: in season one at Homeland. I was like, wait, what

558
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 1: the fun I looked it up and it was the

559
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 1: same writers as twenty four. I was like, that's making sense.

560
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: We know that we said their brother and sister, But

561
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 1: now what if something you think is overrated? I mean,

562
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: I've been on this show a bunch of times and

563
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: I can't remember what I've said at this point, but

564
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 1: still if I said it before once again, the police,

565
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: wait what happened now? Oh, just you know regular ship.

566
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: I think that Massah Jerry video, you know, reignites the rage.

567
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 1: I mean, not to mention the like, you know, even

568
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: the pandemic we're seeing statistically, police shootings have not gone down.

569
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: They have gone down. Nothing's also I saw that like

570
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: the largest police union endorsed Trump or like sent him

571
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 1: a bunch of or donated to his campaign or something

572
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: like that. Um. But just the police like even after

573
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 1: being kind of you know, called out on their racism

574
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: and in action, have just doubled down. After whining of course,

575
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: just and and you know, denying, denying culpability, they've just

576
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 1: like doubled down and like insisted that their douches and

577
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: that they want to align themselves with this kind of

578
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: um ideology, which we always knew the entire time anyway,

579
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: but it's just like it's just more surreal watching them

580
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: do it openly in the daylight, and it's just like

581
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 1: wild to see like the violent thrashings of white supremacy,

582
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 1: like as it's dragged out into the sun. More When

583
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: it was just like right of in the shade and

584
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: people knew it was there, it was like, well, they're

585
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 1: at least not on the sun. But now it's being

586
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: dragged out and it's like everything in Canada just like

587
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: fuck you up for doing that. But that's the thing

588
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: is like we're we have to endure this process because

589
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: this is not something this is not an ideology that

590
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: just came up on like TikTok overnight. This is it

591
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 1: did not come up overnight. And I was seriously just

592
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: thinking about the fallacy in the danger of that of

593
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: UM cooperating with white supremacists under the guise of like

594
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: reaching across the aisle under the guys like working together

595
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: in partnerships UM, And it's just like reaching across the

596
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 1: aisle to what I remember like watching this stuff on TV,

597
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: and I'm just like, you're literally you don't negotiate with terrorists,

598
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: like you're literally reaching across the aisle to what supremises,

599
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: Like You're not going to compromise with this person. You

600
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 1: legitimizing their stance in the first place is bananas and

601
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 1: bonkers and absolutely ill fated. It's never going to work.

602
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: And it's just like, you know, you just ruminate it

603
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: as you watch what happens in the country, and it's

604
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 1: just like this that is the fallacy of like the

605
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: white liberal mindset of let me stay in the middle,

606
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 1: let me not rock the boat, you know what I mean.

607
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:14,919
Speaker 1: And it's just like I think, like you know, moderate democrats,

608
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: you know, people who followed Trump but insisted that they

609
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,760
Speaker 1: were not racist. They have to they have to reckon

610
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: with this as much as white supremacists have to, you know,

611
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: like your white supremacists like coddling and soft glove stance

612
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: with it is also should also come into question. You know,

613
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: these people don't do it alone. They're not on an island.

614
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 1: They have help, they have accomplices. Yeah, I feel like

615
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 1: it's more and more that line is being drawn. That

616
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,919
Speaker 1: doesn't it's taking a really long time, but it's it's

617
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: finally happening, And I'm just like, maybe it just took America.

618
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: Maybe we have to really really it had to get

619
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 1: down to this, We had to get real bad for

620
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: people to understand what's at stake, and glad it's finally happening.

621
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: It's like also this like continuum of of people who

622
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 1: live here and the timeline on which they begin to

623
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 1: see how bad things are in the country and how

624
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,320
Speaker 1: bad the policies have been since time immemorial. And I

625
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: think for if you're part of a mar marginalized group

626
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 1: whose history already intersects with the brutal nature of this

627
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 1: country and its government, then you've probably you're a little

628
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 1: bit quicker up the timeline of being like I don't

629
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: really I don't have like star spangled lenses on at

630
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 1: this place. I'm looking like, yeah, like I'm hurting, my

631
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,879
Speaker 1: family is not doing well. I have people who don't

632
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 1: have health insurance, people who don't know if they'll ever

633
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,879
Speaker 1: go to college, people who will never own a home.

634
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 1: That's one lens people look at it through. And then

635
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: there are people who, through their privilege and the hand

636
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 1: they're dealt, are blessed enough that those those ills might

637
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 1: not be as close to them. So they're all kind

638
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 1: of looking like, what's everyone complaining about? It's not that bad.

639
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,399
Speaker 1: And that's the moment we have to say, please take

640
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: a moment to just just take a moment. Don't think

641
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 1: what's wrong with these people? Just think is it possible

642
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 1: that the country could be that bad experientially for some

643
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: people that live here. Is that if you can acknowledge that,

644
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 1: then you have to be able to begin taking those

645
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,800
Speaker 1: next steps of like, okay, well then there's something we

646
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 1: can do to ask for better. Because of this, I

647
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 1: feel like our mistake for so long was this um

648
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: like assuming that Americans were more morally exceptional than they

649
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: actually were, that people could see this without it personally

650
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: directly affecting them. And I kind of just feel like, Okay,

651
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 1: it just took your country, your democracy literally crumbling, and

652
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: you understanding that my liberation is also your liberation. You

653
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 1: understanding that if you watch the police murder a black

654
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,800
Speaker 1: person in daylight, that affects you to Sandra Bland is

655
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 1: also you, so is Eric Garner. It's not just some

656
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,439
Speaker 1: black man. It is a human being with human rights.

657
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 1: And when you let that person's human rights go, yours

658
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 1: are yours come into question? And two and I feel

659
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 1: like everybody's blinders, you know, these um, this false sense

660
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 1: of security that people have had that's had to come

661
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 1: crashing down um and put us all in danger, you know,

662
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: like so so it just also feels just like, yeah,

663
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 1: like we all have to literally come to like the

664
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,839
Speaker 1: crossroads if we might all like it might get really,

665
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: really bad, just for people to realize that, hey, um,

666
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 1: a black life matters, and just to be and to

667
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,879
Speaker 1: be honest enough to say it's bad. It's really bad

668
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 1: and it might not be my fault, but the first

669
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 1: step is just to acknowledge that it's bad for many

670
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: other people. And then you know, nobody again why say

671
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 1: why did you do this saying we need more people

672
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: to realize that it's bad. So when you see things

673
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 1: like Medicare for all our student debt, really feel like, no,

674
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:52,399
Speaker 1: we're not going to get to that, be like, we'll

675
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 1: hold on because even though my debts are paid off,

676
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,320
Speaker 1: or I have a six figure income in which I

677
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 1: don't have to rid of my students that dot dot

678
00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 1: dot dot, there are people who are in the complete,

679
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,400
Speaker 1: the antithetical possition of them opposite position of me, and

680
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 1: they do need help, and there isn't anything wrong for

681
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 1: advocating on their behalf because you should be like, well, yeah,

682
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 1: I'm chilling. I would like everybody to be chilling. I

683
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 1: think like even putting it in the terms of like,

684
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: you know, let's pay off everybody's debt, which I feel like, okay,

685
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 1: that would be if we paid off people's federal student loans,

686
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: that would be amazing. But even if we don't pay

687
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: off everybody's debt, you know, making it so that literally

688
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 1: anybody could go to college, that is, to me, is

689
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 1: is what we're talking about. It's not talking about like

690
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 1: giving people letting people off scott free, which people don't

691
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: like to see. If that's the case, and it's like,

692
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 1: all right, fine, if we don't want to see people

693
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 1: off scott free, just make it so that nobody should

694
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 1: have to worry about the cost of going to college.

695
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 1: Nobody should have to get into crushing debt to go

696
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 1: to college. Why can't we have free state college. Why

697
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: can't we have free public college. You know, you can

698
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: still have your Harvards, you can still have your insanely

699
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: overpriced colleges. But as long as everybody has access to education,

700
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: that's that's the point. Yeah, it's and it's about just

701
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 1: like beginning to reform at this idea of things that

702
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 1: we've culturally been like shovel fed, the idea of like

703
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 1: our privileges, Like it's a privilege to go to the university,

704
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: it's a privilege to get healthcare, it's a privilege to

705
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: be able to live. Like, we have to begin shifting

706
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,360
Speaker 1: these things for the like normal thing to say is

707
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,320
Speaker 1: these ships, these things are right, and these things should

708
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: be free. Like and if we got to break it

709
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 1: down for gen Z, it should be like the new

710
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 1: campaign is that ship should be free. Taxes that should

711
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: be free. It's just like I'm gonna pay taxes, why

712
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: should my taxes go to a murdering police station. You know, Like,

713
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is also true, but I

714
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: feel like I read I'm not gonna say I feel

715
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,839
Speaker 1: I think I read that. Um, A lot of these

716
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 1: civil suits that families bring against police are paid out

717
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 1: of the police budget. So they're paid out of tax

718
00:39:56,440 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: payers budgets. Yeah, so it's like, aren't they being paid?

719
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 1: Why aren't these uh, why are the taxpayers having to

720
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,840
Speaker 1: foot the bill for murder? That doesn't make any sense.

721
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: We are paying the insurance policy to keep them, Yes,

722
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: at the at the very least like it should it

723
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: should hit their budget in a way that they are

724
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 1: permanently Uh, they get there's a permanent cost to lives

725
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 1: lost for no reason. It's just nothing makes sense. I

726
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:28,839
Speaker 1: was just gonna talk about this Brianna Taylor thing because

727
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 1: I keep saying like I feel like this call to

728
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,400
Speaker 1: you know, arrest the cops, It's like, why are we

729
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 1: talking about arresting copts? These guys are following orders? What

730
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: about the mayor? What about the what about the people

731
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,440
Speaker 1: who who called for who let the note no not

732
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: warrant happen? The state A g Like, it's just like

733
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: you know, we it's to me, it's the same thing

734
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 1: as like blaming individual white people for racism, which which

735
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 1: nobody is doing, but white people sometimes seem to think

736
00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,719
Speaker 1: that that's the case. It's like, it's not this individual thing.

737
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: It's like this very structural thing that could change so

738
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 1: that when individuals don't follow you know, protocol, when individuals

739
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: hurt other individuals, they you know, we have structure set

740
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 1: up so that they pay exactly, so that they pay

741
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: consequences for it. And I think everything that we'll kind

742
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 1: of get into that sentiment too with this sort of

743
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 1: like I G. Activism thing, because it's taking something that's

744
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 1: really complex that makes sense, which is arrest the people

745
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 1: that killed like, yes, very narrowly. Absolutely these people murdered her,

746
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 1: so get them. But there's also this thing where we're

747
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 1: taking like that, whereas activists are thinking on a much

748
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,920
Speaker 1: larger scale. But we have this thing where we were

749
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 1: starting to distill it down to these really oversimplified sort

750
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: of sentiments, and we're losing the real thrust of what

751
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:47,960
Speaker 1: we are. What we've been screaming for. What we're screaming

752
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 1: for is policy, fundamental structural change. That's what we're screaming

753
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,880
Speaker 1: for yeah, but they're like, oh, but this, but this

754
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 1: precinct captain break can break dance like he was in

755
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 1: Breaking two. It's like and he kneeled and he did

756
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,400
Speaker 1: the Black Power fist, and he took a picture with

757
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: some little black kids on a basketball court. It's like,

758
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 1: get out of you. And I feel like on the

759
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 1: other side of that line that's being drawn, the like

760
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 1: what when we saw it when we looked at that

761
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:20,800
Speaker 1: clip of the New York UH Police Union representative like

762
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 1: just having a yeah, absolute tantrum like this this is

763
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 1: there's been this underlying sort of alliance between white supremacists

764
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:35,320
Speaker 1: and the police, and a feeder system of you know,

765
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 1: back and forth white supremacists becoming police, police becoming white supremacists.

766
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 1: There's there was an open white supremacist gang in the

767
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Sheriff's Department. UM, and I just I can't

768
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: easily just like looking at the next ten years, whether

769
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 1: Trump wins or loses and claims the election was rigged

770
00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 1: or UH loses convincingly, but everybody's mad about it. Like

771
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: I could really see this sort of you know, the

772
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:10,320
Speaker 1: developing fascist wing of our country allying itself with this

773
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:15,919
Speaker 1: sort of temper tantrum police force that feels like it's

774
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 1: losing power, and like that just needs to be something

775
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 1: that we're prepared for because America is not above that.

776
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 1: And that is how you know that, how things just

777
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 1: completely fall apart and it seems like it's happening in

778
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,360
Speaker 1: real time in front of us. Yeah, our president is

779
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:37,880
Speaker 1: stoking that fire actively daily. Yeah. Yeah, and now that

780
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 1: he's stoked it, I just don't know how you put

781
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 1: it out without just completely abolishing the existing police force.

782
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 1: Um like and then and then just again, like you said,

783
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 1: you drag all this white supremacist ship out into the sun,

784
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna start thrashing, same thing it's gonna and like

785
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,359
Speaker 1: we're not even beginning to see what that thrashing looks

786
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:00,359
Speaker 1: like with laungement, because like right now, they're just dealing

787
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:01,799
Speaker 1: with a lot of people who are saying a lot

788
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 1: of things and municipalities. Some are acting quicker than others,

789
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,800
Speaker 1: but it's not quite getting to that existential point. And

790
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 1: I can only we've only seen the kind of underhanded

791
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,320
Speaker 1: bullshit tactic. But they put a tampon in my frap

792
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 1: or whatever the fake ship is, Like what that looks

793
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 1: like when they need that they need more hardcore narratives

794
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,960
Speaker 1: to justify their abuse and all that this this is

795
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 1: all being caused by like the only reason we have

796
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:32,720
Speaker 1: these conversations around these specific incidents is because we're able

797
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 1: to see specifically what is happening on video. Without that,

798
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 1: without that objective evidence, like, none of this happened. So

799
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:45,399
Speaker 1: it's just them being caught and then being like fuck

800
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:49,680
Speaker 1: you for catching us. Um, White supremacy is kind of

801
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 1: like sucking like Narnia or some ship, like only the

802
00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 1: people that have seen it believe in it, and other

803
00:44:55,000 --> 00:45:00,359
Speaker 1: people were like, come on, and I'm like, look look

804
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:03,600
Speaker 1: in my fucking eyes, I have been to motherfucking Narnia. Bro,

805
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,920
Speaker 1: I'm not lying. This ship is Please believe me. Look

806
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 1: at all these other people, millions of us have seen

807
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 1: it and just trust us. And look, even your friend

808
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 1: who you thought would never have been to Narnia, he

809
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 1: had also been to Narnia. Can you can you please

810
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: understand this is not some fake ship. It's like there's

811
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 1: levels where you almost you have some people just if

812
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,360
Speaker 1: they haven't experienced at firsthand, they're just so unwilling to

813
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:29,399
Speaker 1: just acknowledge the sort of the dark depths that these

814
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 1: institutions can go to. I wrote this essay called the

815
00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: Absurd Reality of Being Black in America, just this one

816
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,719
Speaker 1: essay after I was devastated after George Floyd. But I'll

817
00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 1: share it with you, guys, because that's what it's talking about. Oh, fantastic,

818
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 1: awesome online, So we can link off in the footnote.

819
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:54,439
Speaker 1: Everybody's going to see it in the footnotes. Um, all right, guys,

820
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:56,879
Speaker 1: let's take one more break and we'll be right back.

821
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,759
Speaker 1: And we're back. What is something you think is underrated? Um?

822
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:15,760
Speaker 1: Something I think is underrated? Sorry, being in the shower.

823
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,359
Speaker 1: You know, you looked at us and noticed and knew

824
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: that we were doing it. Look like pee in the shower.

825
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 1: But I guess i'm saying what you know. I don't

826
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 1: even know why. I'm sorry. I think we're in the majority. Yeah, yeah,

827
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:37,760
Speaker 1: look we are everything. You know. Speaking of the next topic,

828
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:40,719
Speaker 1: I think it's a myth that women can't aim for

829
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 1: the drain, okay, or point their team. I've seen it, Yeah,

830
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,960
Speaker 1: I've seen it. You know. I actually had a moment

831
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 1: where I basically had my four year old. He was

832
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 1: taking a shower, and he was like, I gotta get

833
00:46:57,719 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 1: out to go to the bathroom, and I was like,

834
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:03,000
Speaker 1: do you in my bathroom? I just tell him, I

835
00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 1: just tell him. Now, like your your wife busts down

836
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:11,360
Speaker 1: the door like the cool man. She's like, you're wearing

837
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 1: the bathroom. So the bathrooms all around us people who

838
00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:21,279
Speaker 1: really get incensed by the idea of like urinating in

839
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 1: the shower. And I understand if like very narrowly, it's

840
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 1: like it's urine everywhere, but on the other side of it,

841
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:33,279
Speaker 1: it's like it's being immediately flushed down with water. And

842
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 1: also like I'm not I drink enough water. I'm not

843
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:40,240
Speaker 1: doing like the wild highlighter yellow peas the whole building.

844
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: Like don't they say it's it's sterile? Is that is

845
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,720
Speaker 1: a myth? It's sterile. Yeah, it's not like you shouldn't

846
00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:51,720
Speaker 1: drink it. It's not good for you. But it's sterile

847
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:53,760
Speaker 1: in the sense that it doesn't have any like living

848
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,839
Speaker 1: bacteria or virus is in it, so you can get

849
00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 1: sick from drinking peak. I think it's just not good

850
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:05,920
Speaker 1: for you. Yeah, even if it's your own Miles. This

851
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 1: is time we talked about this five minutes ago, or

852
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:11,400
Speaker 1: the last time we talked about this at last and

853
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 1: forty five minutes. No, no, I actually don't get ss like, yeah, man,

854
00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:19,760
Speaker 1: He's like, even if it's your own and what Harrilson

855
00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 1: just looks in like what the fun? And he's like, uh, sorry,

856
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 1: I steal most of my materials from Shitty Fairly Brother's movies.

857
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 1: That which one was that I just watched it recently,

858
00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:38,880
Speaker 1: King Pim Uh And so your myth is that women

859
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,080
Speaker 1: can't an I just added that in there with my

860
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:49,360
Speaker 1: moth is the myth of Jiffy peanut butter. There is

861
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:56,320
Speaker 1: no Jiffy peanut butter. There's Jiffy and Skippy, but no Jiffy.

862
00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,799
Speaker 1: Oh what the fun? In a way I can prove

863
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: it weird. I never critically thought about that because when

864
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 1: he said, I'm like, yeah, there's Jiffy, and I'm like

865
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 1: and then I'm like, wait, no, it is Jeff. That's

866
00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:12,960
Speaker 1: like one of those barons stand bears or Shazam, the

867
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 1: movie Shazam with uh is it sinbad? What was scause?

868
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,960
Speaker 1: Because I am I am Kazam. There's like this merging

869
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,480
Speaker 1: that happens in people's mind where they think that there's

870
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 1: a movie called Shazam. I mean they're sad with what's

871
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,560
Speaker 1: his face? A recent one? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, recently recently

872
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:43,319
Speaker 1: with Chuck from the TV from the Right, Zachary Levi. Yeah, yeah,

873
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 1: but yeah, that that's so weird. I hadn't even thought

874
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:50,280
Speaker 1: about that. That Jiffy. I have definitely believed that Jeffy

875
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 1: is a peanut butter and based my entire life around it. Yeah,

876
00:49:56,120 --> 00:50:03,359
Speaker 1: oh altered. Let me just google how much is gonna

877
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:07,840
Speaker 1: take cover? It's all off center because they take the

878
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:12,680
Speaker 1: F and the Y. They're like, why isn't left? Oh?

879
00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:15,400
Speaker 1: I like, what's that one? Laura scutters? Is that how

880
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:17,879
Speaker 1: you say that one? The natural one? I haven't even

881
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,440
Speaker 1: heard of that. That's the one in the clast one

882
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 1: that like separate you because it's just straight up salt

883
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:27,719
Speaker 1: and peanuts. I think it's called Laura Scudder's that separates

884
00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:30,680
Speaker 1: and that you have to stir together and then drips

885
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:36,560
Speaker 1: out much because I was always like, it's one of

886
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:40,920
Speaker 1: those things. I think also because give me that Scudder.

887
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 1: She was a Yeah, the woman was an entrepreneur, like

888
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,680
Speaker 1: she has like a whole backstory starting to Monterey Park.

889
00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:48,160
Speaker 1: I think maybe that's why I like, I don't know,

890
00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:52,439
Speaker 1: I remember that was like the my my dad would

891
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:54,880
Speaker 1: always buy the peanut butter like and it would never

892
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,120
Speaker 1: be jiff because I guess not peanut butter. And my

893
00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,040
Speaker 1: mom didn't care because he's from Japan, soel it didn't

894
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 1: matter to her. So I was that's what I had,

895
00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:02,960
Speaker 1: and I was like, man, I wanted to be smooth,

896
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 1: not like this rough ship. And then as I got older,

897
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, this has like that good as peanut flavor.

898
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:12,239
Speaker 1: So isn't it funny the things that change his age? Yeah,

899
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 1: that's when I haven't been able to change my allegiance

900
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,760
Speaker 1: to breakfast cereals, Like I can't do the like Cashi

901
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:25,160
Speaker 1: or like you know, the actual national the bullshit, the

902
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:29,279
Speaker 1: sticks embark I still need. I still need like the

903
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 1: name brand cereals that I grew up with, and I

904
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 1: still need the like, you know, chemically derived jiff and

905
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 1: Skippy peanut butter, which I definitely would have said Jiffy

906
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 1: if if you hadn't just busted that myth. But what's

907
00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 1: your favorite brand? Now? I have to talk to my

908
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 1: financial advisor because so much my money is is in

909
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:56,760
Speaker 1: Jiffy peanut butter. I like, I'm trying to think here's

910
00:51:56,760 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 1: the thing, um Justin's. I would eat Austin's peanut. But

911
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:02,400
Speaker 1: it's also the kindly I get the little packets and

912
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:05,719
Speaker 1: in the airport when I would travel and then put

913
00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:07,560
Speaker 1: it on like put it on the apple, take a

914
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:09,720
Speaker 1: bite like that was my plane on the road smack.

915
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:17,960
Speaker 1: But there's nothing like a wonderbread jiff peanut butter and like, uh,

916
00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 1: I guess Smuckers, I would say, strawberry or do a

917
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:31,239
Speaker 1: halapeeno jelly? What he like your California bullshit, I'm telling

918
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 1: you get that jelly. I remember red pepper sandwich. Yeah,

919
00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,360
Speaker 1: red pepper jelly is fine. Hallpenio jelly, superroducer and Hosnie

920
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:41,840
Speaker 1: loves it too. She blessed me with a jar recently

921
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,800
Speaker 1: that I've already used up because I love like pepper

922
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 1: jellies great for you know, eating anything really. So the

923
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,799
Speaker 1: one thing domestic thing my dad was like really good

924
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,360
Speaker 1: at was peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Like he because

925
00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 1: he he look, it's it's not a high bar. But

926
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,200
Speaker 1: he would put the peanut butter on both sides and

927
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:10,600
Speaker 1: then the jelly in the middle. So it was so good.

928
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 1: It does risk a bite and at the bottom, but

929
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:24,000
Speaker 1: kind of something I'm into. The like one thing my

930
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:26,880
Speaker 1: dad was good at was looking at me every now

931
00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 1: and then, just like every fifth time. I was like, Dad,

932
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:39,880
Speaker 1: look on the diving board. You had the WAP tactics

933
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 1: for eating that exactly. What is something you think is

934
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,160
Speaker 1: over it? Something I think is overrated. It's a little

935
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:53,840
Speaker 1: bit personal, which is grad school. I am a PhD

936
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:56,839
Speaker 1: school dropout, And while cleaning my apartment, I found an

937
00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,279
Speaker 1: old journal from when I was in grad school and

938
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:02,800
Speaker 1: reading it, I was, y'all, I was so broke and

939
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:05,799
Speaker 1: I hated my life so much. So I'm gonna say

940
00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:09,680
Speaker 1: grad school overrated. How long ago I dropped out of

941
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:13,200
Speaker 1: grad school? I had like ten years ago, so kind

942
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:15,000
Speaker 1: of a while ago, kind of a while ago now,

943
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:20,600
Speaker 1: um and yeah, and then to University of Maryland, College Park,

944
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:23,400
Speaker 1: and I was trying to get a doctorate in African

945
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:28,719
Speaker 1: American women's literature. Um. Yeah, it was looking back like

946
00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:32,120
Speaker 1: I really reading reading this whole journal injury, I had

947
00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:34,879
Speaker 1: a flood of all these memories of just being very

948
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 1: broke and also working as an adjunct And in the journal,

949
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 1: I described going to a meeting with like actual professors

950
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:44,320
Speaker 1: and adjuncts where the professor at the end of the

951
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:46,080
Speaker 1: meeting was like, Bridget, would you like to take these

952
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:48,880
Speaker 1: bagels home? Because I know you're I have no money,

953
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 1: and he was right. That would be the same way

954
00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:54,520
Speaker 1: if I look back on like when I was a

955
00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:57,000

Speaker 1: don't know, but just I'll yes, I'll take everything loose potatoes.

968
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:36,160
Speaker 1: I remember very specifically. This was another well. First of all,

969
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:37,799
Speaker 1: when I used to work on Hell's Kitchen the Gordon

970
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:40,840
Speaker 1: Ramsey Show, they would let the uh, they would let

971
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:43,120
Speaker 1: the production staff, they would let us have at the

972
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:46,279
Speaker 1: ingredients that they would use for the night's challenge every day.

973
00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 1: So like I remember one night I brought home, I'm

974
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:52,319
Speaker 1: not joking, a motherfucking hefty like construction shopping bag full

975
00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:56,279
Speaker 1: of shohido peppers. That's too many, Like it's not even

976
00:55:57,120 --> 00:56:02,719
Speaker 1: how can one man have so many peppers? Yeah, but

977
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,480
Speaker 1: like that was like the vibe there and but there

978
00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:07,839
Speaker 1: is an excitement when you get The potatoes was from

979
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:10,440
Speaker 1: another shoot, uh, and that was to do with California

980
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,880
Speaker 1: Chicken Cafe, and they were like roasted potatoes, and I

981
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:15,400
Speaker 1: was like, I can just make like little potato patties

982
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:17,440
Speaker 1: out of potato pancakes with these when I get home,

983
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:19,839
Speaker 1: put him in the food processor. That's what I did.

984
00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:22,400
Speaker 1: Oh my god. I don't want to derail the episode,

985
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:24,960
Speaker 1: but I'm obsessed with Gordon Ramsey and I have so

986
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:28,719
Speaker 1: many questions. Episode has no rails, by the way, I

987
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:32,200
Speaker 1: think you heard the intro, right, Can I can I

988
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:38,080
Speaker 1: just kids this show? But thank you so much. Yes,

989
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:43,040
Speaker 1: normally we are so focused, um, but for this one moment,

990
00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 1: I will indulge your question. Brissie. Yes, Okay, is it so?

991
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:51,200
Speaker 1: I've watched all the Gordon Ramsey properties. On the kids show,

992
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:53,560
Speaker 1: he's so sweet to the kids. It's it's adorable to

993
00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 1: watch him intact with the kids. But as you know,

994
00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:57,400
Speaker 1: on the on the adult show, he's his whole thing

995
00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 1: is like being kind of mean. Is it an act

996
00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:04,200
Speaker 1: or is he actually kind of a gruff person? He's well, okay,

997
00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:06,279
Speaker 1: So I didn't work on Master Chef Kids. I know

998
00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:09,239
Speaker 1: someone that did and says he's he's I mean, he's

999
00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:13,480
Speaker 1: overall a kind guy. He turns it on when you're cooking.

1000
00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:16,120
Speaker 1: Then you enter his world where now he has a

1001
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:17,760
Speaker 1: take on the ship you're doing, Like if you're just

1002
00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:22,920
Speaker 1: walking around, he's gonna be like, it's not like you know,

1003
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:25,480
Speaker 1: it's like when So, for example, on the one of

1004
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 1: the seasons I worked on two seasons of Hell's Kitchen Um.

1005
00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:31,200
Speaker 1: On one of the seasons, he changed the craft services

1006
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:35,080
Speaker 1: company h Too, I think three times in the season

1007
00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:37,160
Speaker 1: because he felt the craft meal wasn't up to his

1008
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,600
Speaker 1: standard for what the crew should be eating. So like

1009
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:42,880
Speaker 1: he would come by and just taste like like sort

1010
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:45,040
Speaker 1: of make a small plate of whatever the crew was eating,

1011
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 1: and then the next day, there'd be a new crew

1012
00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 1: there and we're like, what happened to Like he didn't

1013
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:50,600
Speaker 1: like the food. Let me ask you this. Have you

1014
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:54,000
Speaker 1: ever seen that video of of him having another chef

1015
00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:56,600
Speaker 1: taste his pad tie and he's so he's so excited

1016
00:57:56,640 --> 00:58:01,680
Speaker 1: to get Yeah, it's the best. Yeah, because it's like

1017
00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:03,640
Speaker 1: a Tai chef who's like, bro, this is something like

1018
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:05,680
Speaker 1: this is whack. I don't know what this is for,

1019
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,080
Speaker 1: but like, don't this is I'm gonna take any sad.

1020
00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:13,560
Speaker 1: It's so sad. The guy, the guy, he's like, he's like,

1021
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:14,960
Speaker 1: what do you think about it? Do you like it?

1022
00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: Do you like it? And he goes and then he's like, well,

1023
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:19,680
Speaker 1: you know, what do you think? And the guy's like,

1024
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:21,440
Speaker 1: what do you want to know about it? He's like,

1025
00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:26,000
Speaker 1: what do you what do you want to know about it? You?

1026
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 1: Because like tables, it's so it's such an inversion of

1027
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:32,320
Speaker 1: power of what you used to seeing in any kind

1028
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:37,040
Speaker 1: of Gordon Ramsey clip. That's so funny. Um, the most

1029
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:40,720
Speaker 1: delicious food has ever been to me is working as

1030
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:43,840
Speaker 1: like a bus boy or a dishwasher in the kitchen,

1031
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:46,880
Speaker 1: seeing like all this delicious food and just being broken

1032
00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:49,960
Speaker 1: hungry and then like getting a plate of French fries

1033
00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:53,920
Speaker 1: with hollandaise sauce or something like that. So another thing too,

1034
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:57,520
Speaker 1: Hell's Kitchen, So you know, I don't know it's it's

1035
00:58:57,560 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 1: it's a reality show, but you know, quote unquote reality.

1036
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:03,280
Speaker 1: So like sometimes like the servers like walk away from

1037
00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:05,280
Speaker 1: the past, like as if they're going to put food

1038
00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:07,760
Speaker 1: on the table, but they aren't, and it's just for

1039
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:09,800
Speaker 1: the shot and they walk straight through the set and

1040
00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:11,560
Speaker 1: go to this other back corner where they will just

1041
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,720
Speaker 1: put the plates down and the knife fights that we

1042
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:17,520
Speaker 1: had over those plates that they're like, I mean, you

1043
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:21,520
Speaker 1: got you gotta taste last night. I've never had duck.

1044
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:23,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try it. And then you're like the ship

1045
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:24,800
Speaker 1: is so good and then you just but it is

1046
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:27,560
Speaker 1: like that moment where you're like when where do I

1047
00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:29,720
Speaker 1: have to be to eat like this all the time.

1048
00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:32,520
Speaker 1: But that's still like affects my taste and food is

1049
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:35,880
Speaker 1: like I love French fries with hollandaise sauce. I love

1050
00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:38,640
Speaker 1: Italian food because I worked like when I was in

1051
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:41,040
Speaker 1: high school, I was a bus boy and a dishwasher

1052
00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 1: and an Italian restaurant where they had like solid food,

1053
00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 1: but like that food just looked just like yeah, just

1054
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 1: the dream of that. That's the reason why I love

1055
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:53,880
Speaker 1: Dominoes is because when I worked at the Laser Tag

1056
00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,480
Speaker 1: Plays doing kids birthday parties, that was the pizza place

1057
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:57,680
Speaker 1: we had to deal with. So if you had the

1058
00:59:57,720 --> 00:59:59,720
