Coming at you from Columbia Heights Heights. Uh? 15 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: And is there because that that city changes based on 16 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: like the administration? Right? Absolutely? Yeah, I moved. I lived 17 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: in DC for a really long time. I moved here 18 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 1: at the tail end of the Bush administration. Was here 19 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: for both Obama administrations and the Trump administration. So I'm 20 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: definitely the city definitely changes based on the current administration. 21 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: I can tell you that in when I was here 22 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: for the Bush administration, you would see dudes walking around 23 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 1: with like, um, cowboy booths and like cowboy hats and like, um, 24 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,479 Speaker 1: what do you call those? Yeah blow ties that there 25 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: was a real weird Texas vibe because of George Bush. Yeah, 26 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: so the city definitely changes based on who is in 27 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: office and like what kind of people are moving to 28 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: the city for what kind of administration?

Maybe the vineer movement is finally going 32 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: to down. Yeah, it has the changeover happened yet, Like 33 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: have u the maga folks vacated people are just jubilant, 34 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 1: like I think it is. You know, when you live 35 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: in d C, it's like you see these assholes around, 36 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 1: like I saw Ivanka Trump outside of the soul cycle ones. 37 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: You know, you see these people like I don't imagine 38 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: that me and a lot of Trump administration officials were 39 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: going to the same places. But every now and then 40 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 1: you'll see them. If you go to like a fancy 41 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: restaurant or something, you'll see officials. Like all my friends 42 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: have planned out, Like what would you say if you saw, 43 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: you know, Jared Kushner around on the street, what would 44 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: you do? Like would you yell at? What would you do? 45 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: But the vibe in d C is pure jubilant. I'm 46 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: talking people spraying champagne on the streets, people hanging out 47 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: of cars screaming, we cannot wait to be rid of this, 48 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: their fucker and all of his croonies. So we're just 49 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: so happy. Yes that were you in DC on election 50 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: or not election day, but day of the day they 51 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: called it.

The only thing that I could even 59 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: compare it to is I happened to be in Paris 60 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: when France won the World Cup. It was like that 61 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: level of of collective joy, like strangers high fiving in 62 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: the streets, banging pots and pans, is my favorite because 63 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: it's just like so just infantile and just like I'm 64 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: happy banging.

Um, this 68 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: is a little crazy, but I looked up. I tweeted 69 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: this late last night that the mega church that I 70 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: used to work at that I grew up with this. 71 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: I guess this has happened in the past couple of years. 72 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: I just wasn't paying attention, but the senior pastor, who 73 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: is brilliant was a brilliant preacher and stuff like that 74 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: kind of stepped aside so his son that I grew 75 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: up with could take over. And his son is one 76 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: of the worst preachers I've ever seen in my life. 77 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: I knew he was bad. I knew he was bad 78 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: twenty years ago. He's a year older than me. I 79 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: grew up with this guy and the the same draft class. Basically, 80 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I know this guy. I know his ex 81 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: wife now and then his My first girlfriend was the 82 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: sister his sister too.

I can tell 89 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: you all the reasons about why it's bad too, But 90 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: if you know preaching, it's even worse. But any layman 91 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: could look at it and say, this guy's out of control. 92 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: And I what I actually the search history was.

The dad lives 170 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 1: in Newport Beach and they used to just come into 171 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: West Covina and preach and go back to Newport Beach 172 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: some some Devin noonas ship tons of they started doing 173 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: tons of getting tons of plastic surgery. It's a whole thing, 174 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: I know. I mean, the reason why I'm so hyperbout 175 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: it is just I'm so mad they gave it to Dan, 176 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: like I was gonna let it go, and this thirty 177 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: million dollars seems so fishy to me. They're gonna break 178 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: apart the megachurch, and they said they're gonna start a 179 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: bunch of smaller churches, but I just don't see them 180 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: doing so. I want to look this energy. It's like 181 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: it's the kind of it reminds me of when I 182 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: used to be on Facebook and I would see some 183 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: ship about somebody like I kind of halfway fucked with, 184 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: But then you see some up there like this, and 185 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,439 Speaker 1: then I would be like, hold on, come here, sir, 186 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: let me tell you about this person right here on 187 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 1: my laptop. And they're like I don't know them. I'm like, yeah, 188 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: but wait till I tell you about I love it. 189 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: I love it. Yeah, that guy, what something you think 190 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: is underrated? Lazy? I'm I'm in a big Netflix wave 191 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: right now, so you're gonna get a lot of Netflix takes. 192 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: It's catching on now and it's getting popping. But Queen's gambit, Yes, 193 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: I almost didn't watch it because I was like, oh, 194 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: more White Lady TV. And but then I was like, 195 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 1: I love chess, like I haven't played in years. When 196 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: I was a kid, I would play with my dad, 197 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: and as I grew up, someone said this on Twitter 198 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: and I was like, damn, maybe my dad did scammed me. 199 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: Because my dad taught me how to play chess, and 200 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: then we would play against each other and he always 201 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: be like one of bad and I'm like, yeah, I 202 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: bet twenty dollars. He's like, I bet you watch my 203 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: golf clubs. And I always had to watch his golf clubs. 204 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,839 Speaker 1: I was bad. Yeah, wait, lay, I played with you. 205 00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: I don't know if you were playing the same because 206 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: I remember the way you were moving the rook around 207 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: the board. I was like, everything, do everything. That's a 208 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: grand Master. That's the whole grand Master new rule. People 209 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: don't know about the rook candle, which which grand masters 210 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: you study under? Grand Master Flash, Flexive, Freddy. They taught 211 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 1: me everything. You don't even need a king for real, Like, 212 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 1: if fact may go down, you can keep playing. I 213 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,079 Speaker 1: don't know who's saying that he still got pieces left 214 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: playing with her? I hate playing with her. Okay, Yeah, 215 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: they basically just created a like rock star chess expert 216 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: like that. That's sort of the idea behind the show. 217 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: But I love it because it is does give me 218 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: a second way feminism vibes. But it is like there's 219 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: a moment in the show where the girl is signed 220 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 1: up for her first competition and the men are like, oh, 221 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: you're not ready for that. What's your rating? Blah blah blah. 222 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: She's like, I want to be in that tournament. They're like, 223 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: but nobody ever does that there. She was like, is 224 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: it gets a rose and they were like, no, it's 225 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: put me in their beach. Anyway, I'm gonna take my 226 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: drugs so that's the one thing if you're in recovery 227 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: or yeah, trying to get sober is very triggering because 228 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: she takes drugs that make her better at yes, and 229 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: I won the tournament. Also, like when she gets clean, 230 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: it's not realistic because it's like she goes on a 231 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: full fucking binder for like what seems to be a 232 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: month and then she just gets clean, and it's like 233 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: she would have had withdraw there would have been a 234 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: bad period of like feeling horrible. So like if you, yeah, 235 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: if you're dealing with substance abuse issues or just not 236 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: even issues, but like you know, the challenge of the 237 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: quarantine is pushing everybody hard right now. So maybe don't 238 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: watch Queen's Game because that ship makes drugs look fun. 239 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:54,319 Speaker 1: I was like a chess board on the ceiling. Yeah, yeah, 240 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: like that's the way to play. Yeah. Although there is 241 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: somebody who dies of alcoholism, uh or like dies of 242 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: what's the disease that turns your eyes yellow? Yeah yeah, right, 243 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: hepatitis from alcoholism. But they don't like dwell on it. 244 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: They're just like dash sh it, just like moving well. 245 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: But Jacka didn't make me think of the episode that 246 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: we had when we talked about people randomly dying um 247 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: in the Dominican Republic because it was like they were 248 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: on vacation, so they kind of made it like a 249 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: vacation death. We talked about where it's like, oh, you 250 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: have lots of fun and then you die, So y'all 251 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: watch out if you got to do it Thanksgiving, don't 252 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: go too hard on the right. And then when she 253 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: passed away, I would I would now that I know 254 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: what I know that a k now that I read 255 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: one book about the history of the CIA, I would. 256 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: I would assume that she was murdered by the CIA. 257 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: They have a heart, they have a heart. Yeah, they 258 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: were just like, she's too she's too powerful. We have 259 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: to take somebody she loves out tertiary option. You got 260 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 1: to do it undercover, you send in the genitals. It 261 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: all right, let's take a quick break and we'll come 262 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: right back and we're back. What is something from your 263 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: search history that is revealing, that is embarrassing that you 264 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: don't want us to know about. Well, I don't know 265 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: that I would say it's embarrassing, but um, something that 266 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: I have dedicated a lot of time to researching and 267 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: reading every single comment about is Janet Huber the original 268 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: aunt viv on Fresh Prince of bel Air. They just 269 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: had a re union on I think HBO Max, and 270 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: I remember thinking like, oh my god, are they gonna 271 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: break out Janet Huber. I don't know if y'all watched it, 272 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: but Janet Huber and Will Smith finally buried the hatchet, 273 00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: and so I have been doing some deep googling. I 274 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: need to know every every detail of this few to 275 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: remind myself she has held a grudge against him for 276 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: like since the you know nineties, This is this is this, 277 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: this beef has really aged and they realized that was 278 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: still an active beef. Well, they buried the hatchet just 279 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: this week. But it's been like if this beef was 280 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: a child, it will be like twenty years old. I 281 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: will be old. Yeah. Maybe it's like I wonder if, 282 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: like Will Smith is in the reconciling mood because of 283 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: his journey at the Red Table, remember that just like 284 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: just dragged me, you guys, just yeah, I mean it's interesting, 285 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: Like the clip that I saw, she really you know, 286 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: was open about she was like you said, I was 287 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: difficult and that really damaged my career. Like that's not 288 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: a thing that somebody, a star can say about a 289 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: woman of color and not have it like really damage 290 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: her career. And like the fact that's kind of I 291 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: don't know that that's the sort of reconciliation that you 292 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: don't usually get. Usually it's just them being like, yeah, 293 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: but we're past it, and like not like actually like 294 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: bringing the the actual damage to the foreground. I don't know. 295 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: I'm really excited to watch the reunion now, Yeah, you 296 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: should definitely watch it. It is. I mean, I'm not 297 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: gonna lie. I cried it's it was. And also it's 298 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: like quarantine vibe, so like everything is like hitting up 299 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: at least me. Everything is hitting me emotionally in ways 300 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: that it maybe wouldn't before. But I think you're right. 301 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: I think I was happy to see the conversation take 302 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: that turn of like, well, what does it mean when 303 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: you call a black woman difficult in Hollywood? And actually 304 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: it means a lot. It's not you're not just casually 305 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: doing that. Um. But then also it really got me 306 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: thinking like a lot of us, myself included, like grew 307 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: up on Fresh Prints, like they kind of weirdly even 308 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: though it's a television show and they're fictional, they felt 309 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: like family to me and a lot of ways, and 310 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 1: watching them reunite now and then talk about Uncle Phil 311 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: who passed away, like you really see, like, oh wow, 312 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: this is like I feel like I grew up with 313 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: them in a kind of way. I don't think it's 314 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: very cheesy, but it was just really hitting me and 315 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 1: all the emotions that I didn't realize that that was 316 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: the grounds that their feud had been on. I just 317 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: knew that they didn't like each other for some reason. 318 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: I have to watch this. Yeah, you should definitely watch it. Yeah. Yeah, 319 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that either. And I applaud her for 320 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: like coming out and you know, be like saying that 321 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: to like one of the biggest, most powerful stars in Hollywood, 322 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: and also him like leaving that in because it is like, yeah, 323 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: I think people realized a little bit more like the 324 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: depth of what happened there. Yeah, I didn't realize that 325 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: just this is all just from the trailer, but that 326 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 1: Uncle Phil was like a Shakespearean actor. And after the scene, yeah, 327 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: after the scene where Will was like why what does 328 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: new love me? Or and like Uncle Phil like hugs 329 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 1: him like he said into his ear. Now that's acting 330 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: that was that's awesome. That was acting. That was so good. 331 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: Not that you say he was a Shakespearean actor. Everything 332 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: about like his voice, his like the way he carries himself. 333 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: That his Shakespearean down that back wall with that voice. 334 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: He really had a presence. And uh. And then Carlton 335 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: when he did the Carlton dance, he walked up to 336 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: and said, that's dancing. That's not true. A couple of scams. 337 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: I wanted to get your thoughts on Lacy scam goddess. Um. 338 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: So there's a new scam where it's kind of a 339 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: two sided scam, a mutually beneficial scam where small countries 340 00:18:54,880 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 1: like Cyprus are offering something called citizenship by investment, which 341 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: is where where rich people like donate, you know, hundreds 342 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: of thousands of dollars to the country and can then 343 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: become citizens of that country. And you know, so basically 344 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: citizenship becomes something you can buy as opposed to something 345 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 1: that has to do with like where you were born. Um. 346 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: And the idea is like this used to be a 347 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: big deal for countries like you know, Pakistan, where that 348 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: might be on like a travel advisory list or some 349 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: ship like that. And now that the US is crumbling. 350 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: Rich people in the US are starting to buy the 351 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: ship up to so that they feel like, first of all, 352 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: they can flee if the taxes get too much, but 353 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: also they can flee once we come for them. Okay, cool. Yeah, 354 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start selling passports as well. Yeah, like try 355 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: and find it. It's not on any of these lists, 356 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,640 Speaker 1: so you can go anywhere you want with that. That's 357 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: what you want, is something that's not on the map, 358 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: and it's made of vibranium, so be careful with that. 359 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: The other thing, I mean, they have this in the 360 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: U s too, right, like because you know, I think 361 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: a lot of countries like it's like you spend like 362 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 1: two million dollars or some ship and then it's like 363 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: all right, well, we'll we'll relax our immigration laws. But 364 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 1: it's interesting, like in the context especially of the US 365 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: passport being like a fucking scarlet letter in terms of 366 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: trying to travel around the world and like, fuck, bro, 367 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: like I'll drop fucking three million for a Cypress passport 368 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: just so I can go to fucking you know, the 369 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 1: Argentine wherever the funk people go on these whimsical jets 370 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: center vacations and then one other scam that I hadn't 371 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: really thought about, but people somebody who's like a political 372 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 1: historian for NBC tweeted the question of like, where will 373 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: President Donald Trump's presidential library be located? Uh? And obviously 374 00:20:54,720 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: it's the whole whole host of responses. Somebody he created 375 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,640 Speaker 1: a fake website that had like stuff like the right 376 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: auditorium and like just very detailed layout of what his 377 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: uh and like a COVID nineteen victim reflection pond where 378 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,719 Speaker 1: you can reflect on all the victims of that disease. 379 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: It's just a mirror where it has an outline of 380 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: Trump's hair, so when you look at it, you can 381 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: just kind of frame your face with Trump's hair. Yeah, 382 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,360 Speaker 1: that in his library, the victim reflection pond is a 383 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: mirror for him. It's not anything. His library probably be 384 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: the most fun of all the presidential libraries, because I 385 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 1: bet you would be like a bar and a bitch. 386 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: You could probably score some adderall get anything over there. Yeah, 387 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: So that is so that's something like I had always 388 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: heard of presidential libraries. I knew they were a thing. 389 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: I didn't realize they just happened like starting in the 390 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: twentieth century because FDR like they needed to store his 391 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: presidential papers, like all the papers he left behind, and 392 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: so they were like, yeah, we'll do a library where 393 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: you can like look through all of his ship and 394 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: like from there it ballooned into this thing where now 395 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: it's just like a propaganda it's like a Disney attraction 396 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: that is a propaganda win for like how that president 397 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: wanted to view their own presidency, Like Richard Richard Nixon 398 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: up until a few years ago had like his account 399 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: of the Watergate scandal was a coup perpetrated by his 400 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 1: rivals um at the Nixon Library um because it like 401 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: the Hater section, it's just like all the c i 402 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: as like yeah, exactly. It's kind of a great scam 403 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: that you just like get to create an entire like 404 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: physical location that is just a propaganda like Disney attraction. 405 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 1: Like Reagan has a whole air hanger with like the 406 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: Air Force one. Have you been like a bunch of 407 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 1: the helicopter Now I haven't like a trip you take. 408 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: I remember the thing when I was like seven or 409 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 1: some ship or some sometime in the nineties, like what 410 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:17,239 Speaker 1: is this in California? Right?

But 500 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: that was about it. But apparently that's what it always 501 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: looks like after it's been transported for two days and 502 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: it's just like all bundled up and ship, and so 503 00:28:55,440 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: it looks like vacation weed. I'm like, are you sure? 504 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: But yeah, I guess. I mean look at the one 505 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: from like it looks like ship. Some arborists on to 506 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: tell us if our our tree ship talking is on 507 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: point or are we missing some nuances Like I don't know, man, 508 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: check out that branch, those branch clusters looking pretty good. Yeah, 509 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 1: but I don't know. I I guess one way to 510 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: interpret it is that like we just don't usually look 511 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: at the tree right when it's hauled out, like without 512 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: any decorations on it for like a sign of the 513 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: year to be like ah, see the whole year is 514 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 1: fucked a that thing. Look at a tree that was 515 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: all wrapped up and shipped on the right. Um, I 516 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: would never look like that if I was bound and 517 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: laid on a truck for two days. Are you gonna 518 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: Are you gonna get a tree this year? Jack? Yeah, yeah, 519 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: we're going to uh probably this weekend. That's usually when 520 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: we do it. Got my ship up last night. Yeah. 521 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: I bought a fake one for the first time because 522 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: I was like, I A, I like the I love 523 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: a tree, you know, because I love this scent. That's 524 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: really the only reason I get it is just to 525 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: basically a big gass potpourri dish in my home that 526 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: smells like, you know, like a fir tree or whatever 527 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: that is that pine scent. But then like that, when 528 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: the needles start coming off, and I got pets, so 529 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: that should just like start scattering everywhere, and then the 530 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: pets want to drink from the little bowl where the 531 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: fucking tree water is at, and I'm like it's just 532 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, fuck it. Let me just get the cheap 533 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: sixty dollar joint that I just have to put in 534 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: a box every year and bring that back. I'm actually 535 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: liking it. It was it was nice. It has the 536 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: nice shape because like to your point, when you buy 537 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: them and like you get them at a tree lot 538 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: and you're not getting the one that's like they're all 539 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: sort of already on stands and stuff. They're like, okay, yeah, 540 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: let me pull a six fruit from you that's already 541 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: wrapped up. You're like, fuck, is this gonna go? And 542 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: then you actually yeah, and you got like work the 543 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: branches and ship to try him even and sap on 544 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: your hand, and then like papers are sticking to that 545 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: for like three weeks exactly, and then then you're disbarred 546 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 1: because the judges saying you're making specious legal arguments. It's all. 547 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: It's awful. I think, Uh, I think I don't normally 548 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: like to get I don't have kids. If I have kids, 549 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: then I'm doing all this ship right away. But I 550 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: don't normally like to buy one. But I think I'll 551 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: buy one this year just because I just want I 552 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 1: like the real one.
