Speaker 1: and some footie drama. But for Sophia, we like Tasker.

77
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: I guess what is something from your search history. That's

78
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: revealing about who you are. So I just went to

79
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: Mexico City with my podcasting partner Courtney Cosack, our podcast

80
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: Private Parts Unknown, and it struck me that I might

81
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: want to get a tattoo for every city we go

82
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: to for the pod. Um do you have to choose

83
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 1: to choose? Yeah, I have four to tooth um. They're

84
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: real small, they're more like tatties, tatties tatties um. But yeah,

85
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: So I was thinking what would be a good way.

86
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: I don't want to do like flags or whatever. Yeah. Um.

87
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 1: So I was thinking like what if I do a flower?

88
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: And then I'm like, but then I would get it

89
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: for the country because the city doesn't have a flower.

90
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 1: So I googled national flower of Mexico. It's the dahlias, um, dahlia.

91
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 1: They have like a lot of petals. Yeah, they're really

92
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: they're really pretty. Also, look like what's that like almost

93
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: like sunflowers but a different color. Pink? Oh ship Yeah

94
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: yeah this thing? Yeah that's Tripp. He looks like ikea lamp. Yeah.

95
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: So anyway, I was like, should I get a dahlia tattoo?

96
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: That was my last I didn't know anything about the

97
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: Dahlia other than the Dallia murder. And then I finally

98
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: saw one at a farmer's market and they're really pretty.

99
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: Butts on for our house. Got a lot of compliments

100
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: on them. They're pretty flower jack. That is the cutest story.

101
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: A lot of our guests really felt welcomed. The roma,

102
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: I would say, was very pleasing. Compliment. Yeah, curately, it

103
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: goes along with the color story. And what is something

104
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: you think is overrated? CBD oil what everybody says to

105
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: use it for everything? Literally, I want to believe in

106
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: it because I love the idea of it, But every

107
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: time I give it to anyone or tried for anything,

108
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: that ship does not work. Like my mom was having

109
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: pains and I bought this fucking fancy CBD EMU cream.

110
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: They're like, it's made with EMU fat, it penetrates deeper.

111
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: They're like, here's it's a million dollars. I was like,

112
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 1: all right, it's for my mom. I'm like, did it

113
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: do anything? She's like no. Anytime I'm like oh, people

114
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 1: are like yeah, it helps with anxiety. I'm like you

115
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: should try it and they're like no, I don't really

116
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: know what the funking does do well? I think the

117
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: most effective case for it was with anti seizure applications

118
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: because I remember that was like one of the big

119
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: things where there were children who I saw that video too, well,

120
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: not even the video, I mean it was like it's

121
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: a it was like a whole thing. But there's like

122
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: a bunch of videos that have gone viral showing of

123
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: people putting CBD oil on like the feet, the bottoms

124
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: of the feet of people are having seizures and helping

125
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: and stuff on the bottoms of their feet. Yeah, and

126
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: I've heard that it helps in like Parkinson's in my

127
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: husband's dad has Parkinson's, so we've been I've been giving

128
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: them all the CBD and that ship does not do

129
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 1: anything for your point being that cbdo. Like people are

130
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: constantly like, oh, have you tried CBD oil just in conversation,

131
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 1: And that's rarely a illness or like a malady that

132
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: people are bringing up conversationally, Like, man, I keep having

133
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: these seizures. Don't know what to do to saying that

134
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 1: it doesn't work for anything. I'm just saying I don't

135
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: think it works for first of the things we're trying

136
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: to use it for casually being like, oh, yeah, try

137
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 1: for any of the ten things with you. Yeah, well

138
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: people love it, you know, because there's so many CBD

139
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: drinks everywhere too, And does this really how many of

140
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: these have to drink to like catch the spirit? Is

141
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: that what you take medicine for to catch catch the spirit? Yeah,

142
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: everybody knows that. Everybody knows from my praise band, I

143
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: was in Catch the Spirit. Yeah, you love to wear

144
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 1: white linen when you perform. It's like, what's about purity?

145
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: And it's about talking about coming to Jesus? Is in?

146
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: You know? You know what you tell me, I've only

147
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: ever seen you as a God's virgin. Has that white

00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: linen church ever been buttoned up? No, it didn't seem

149
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: like it. Well, you know, it depends on how I'm feeling.

150
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 1: But that's how he gets new additions to the church. Yeah,

151
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: that's how to bring him in. But only those who

Speaker 1: are pure of heart, and he will find a gust

177
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: That's how I get to the grocery store. What is

178
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: a myth? What's something people think is true you know

179
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: to be false. Um. So here's something that I thought

180
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: before going to Mexico City. I thought that because Mexico

181
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: is such a Catholic country, that Mexico City probably wouldn't

182
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 1: be a good place for to be queer. And I

183
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: was totally wrong. Um. I met like a bunch of

184
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: trans people, a bunch of gender queer people, and they

185
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: feel super safe living there. And um, one of the

186
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 1: really interesting ways that they put it there, Like, you know,

187
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: family is really big here, so uh, if you say

188
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: no to someone in your family because of like their orientation,

189
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: then like it's really hard to cut off like a

190
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: part of yourself like that. So sometimes people still do do.

191
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: It's not that there aren't any religious people, but I

192
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 1: think because family is so important, people of each other

193
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: so much, it's actually progress. Yeah, and I thought that

194
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 1: was really cool and um, I mean progressive as fuck.

195
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 1: And the artists are doing really interesting stuff. I talked

196
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: to like a performance artist, uh who like does stuff

197
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: where she puts like lipstick on her body and then

198
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: has people rub it off. And she's like it's you know,

199
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: it hurts my body and like it leaves a mark

200
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: and like that's what patriarchy is, and she's just sucking

201
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: dope and so all these yeah, Mexico cities just insanely interesting.

202
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: So many artists are like flocking down there too. So

203
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: I definitely know it's got a scene. Is there? Mean

204
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,079
Speaker 1: Mexico cities like gang? Let us know if there are,

205
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 1: maybe you can show me. There's a lot you should,

206
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 1: as I learned to call it in parton me. How

207
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: long are you guys down there? Um? Pretty short? Like

208
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: a long weekend Friday to Monday night. Oh ship, a

209
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: little quick weekend work. Yeah, but I mean we did

210
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: a ship kind of stuff at that time and now

211
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 1: we can't wait to come back. And we met so

212
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,960
Speaker 1: many interesting people that are like, oh yeah, I'm a

213
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 1: pleasure activist, I work with sex workers. Were like, everybody

214
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: we're meeting is the fucking coolest person. Dan. Do you

215
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: feel like you like we're in a particularly progressive pocket

216
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 1: or you feel like they were kind of talking about

217
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 1: overall like Mexican culture. Well, I think because of what

218
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 1: we do for the podcast and when we were looking

219
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 1: for people to interview. We specifically are like, who is

220
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: interesting love and sexuality stories in Mexico City? So and

221
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 1: then because of who our friends are and who their

222
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: friends are, I think you kind of a little bit

223
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: self selecting, you know, because we're progressive people, and you know,

224
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: we have friends that are trans and non binary and artists,

225
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: Like that's who our friends are going to introduce us to.

226
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: So I feel like that's true, but we asked them

227
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 1: on their own. Yeah, what's it like? Ye? And I

228
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: mean I talked to a twenty one year old who

229
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: as a girlfriend and she's totally cool with him just

230
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: cross dressing and that's all he wants to do, and

231
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: his like point of view on it was like I

232
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: never understood how women felt until I was dressed as

233
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: a woman and got treated as a woman, and it's

234
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: just a real like mind blowing I'm like, this is

235
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: that's the most progressive ship I've ever heard. This twenty

236
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: one year old just like schooling me, right, So yeah, thanks, kids,

237
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: everyone's younger than us and so much cooler than us.

238
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: We're like old fucking phones that will not boot up

239
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: with Yeah, we're like there's no pictures on this. I'm interested,

240
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: Like that'll be interesting to see on your podcast as

241
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: you like look at different cultures, which because I wonder

242
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: how much of America is unique like America because it

243
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: is this culture that doesn't really have a history, like

244
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: a long history. Uh, I feel like they're there's more

245
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: of a tendency towards extreme religion and also like not

246
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: having like strong family. I guess strong family. I think

247
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: those ties typically come from people who like migrate to

248
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: this exactly bringing those here. And that's sort of like

249
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 1: what the you know, the melting pot as alex Oh,

250
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: And that's one thing that also people kept telling us,

251
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: they're like, you know, this is a true melting pot

252
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: of like three different cultures, and they're like in a

253
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: lot of places, you know, um, doesn't happen what happened here.

254
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 1: On the tour guy put it like this, He's like

255
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: everybody came here and everybody fucked each other. He's like,

256
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: it's a true melting pot, like you know, everybody's kind

257
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 1: of tied into everybody else in the history is very

258
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: deep and um and you know, all the food, they're like, oh,

259
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: this is from this country, this is from this country.

260
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: This is how that's got incorporated and it's it is

261
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: a true melting pot. It was pretty pretty insane, and

262
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: it's one of the biggest cities in the world, I

263
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: think second biggest. Maybe it's enormous, huge, awesome. Well, where

264
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: can people here here about that? Um private parts unknown?

265
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 1: We're on a pleasure podcast network Pleasure. Uh all right,

266
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 1: let's talk about something slightly positive to start things off,

267
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: because I came in today really bleak storm cloud. His

268
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 1: hair was a storm cloud. Uh, So let's talk about

269
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: something that somebody's doing that seems like a good idea

270
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 1: using kindness constructively. Well, you know, we talked a few

271
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: weeks ago, maybe a month or two ago about that

272
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: New York Times piece that was a profile on cbb

273
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: CBP not CBD Customs and Border Patrol Agents to sort

274
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: of get a general take on like what it's like

275
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 1: there where many people like, it's fucking terrible. It's a

276
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: terrible place to work as a woman. There are many

277
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: people who are just fucking like terrible people. There are

278
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,199
Speaker 1: also people who are there who hate the fact that

279
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: this is their job. But have they tried CBD oil.

280
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. If I feel like that would maybe

281
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: help someone, I think it's worth worth noting um and

282
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 1: also just the idea that there are people where the

283
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: morality is so low because like they go to work

284
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 1: and they have to interact with children who are just

285
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,959
Speaker 1: crying for their parents and things like that, and the

286
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: psychologically that's taking a toll um and then you know,

287
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: a lot of it. We were also talking about most

288
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: of us sort of the ideas like man, these people

289
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 1: are sucking, they suck or whatever, why can't they just

290
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: do something else? And then you know, we talked about

291
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 1: how you can't not many people just have the ability

292
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 1: to quit a job because the philosophically opposed to it.

293
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 1: Because the way this system is set up, you must

294
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: work to live, and if you're not working, then you

295
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 1: could perish quite quickly or you're like you're living, situation

296
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,719
Speaker 1: could turn very dark very quickly. So the Never Again

297
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: Action group, their immigrant rights group that's spearheaded by a

298
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 1: lot of Jewish activists, about this idea of like not

299
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 1: separating families, you know, akin to the Holocaust. Um. They

300
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:44,919
Speaker 1: were really trying to figure out because they do a

301
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: lot of activities outside of ice facilities and things like that.

302
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: A lot of the people around were thinking, like it's

303
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:52,880
Speaker 1: not a lot of the times they chant quit your job,

304
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: quit your job, and then we're kind of realizing like

305
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: that's just kind of not enough either. So on Monday,

306
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: two of the people themselves, yeah yeah. So on Monday

307
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: they were thinking, like, okay, what can we actually do?

308
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 1: So they launched a website that would match ice agents

309
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: with confidential career advisors like you would in college, to

310
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 1: try and find a way for you to get another

311
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: job so you can fucking quit this disastrous, evil organization. Um.

312
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 1: And they said from that launch, like two people immediately

313
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 1: like hit them up from outside the like Atlanta area

314
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: where they were first trying to like get people to

315
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: like sort of notice this project. But they said, yeah,

316
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: those people who came out, uh, we're just immediately like, yeah,

317
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: I don't want to be I do absolutely do not

318
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 1: want to work here anymore. And they the comment that

319
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: one of the people left who was interacting with the

320
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 1: website confidentially said something like, I'm drowning in this place.

321
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 1: So you know, I think there is this idea that

322
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 1: we think that every person that works there is just

323
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 1: automaton who's hell bent on doing harm. And I think

324
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 1: there are some people who are, but there are very

325
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: much also people who you know, like we were saying

326
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: to like, border patrol certain areas is a very quick

327
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: ticket to meet the middle to a middle class lifestyle

328
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,120
Speaker 1: like with very like you could just have a high

329
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: school education and start making you know, decent money. So

330
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 1: you know, shout out to them for using you know,

331
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: sensible tactics, because again, I think one thing we've learned

332
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 1: throughout this whole week is that money fucking makes everything move.

333
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 1: People don't it doesn't values are they don't matter. They

334
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 1: don't matter because at the end of the day, it's

335
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,400
Speaker 1: nothing works without money. I also just want to say

336
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: that I think the way that like becoming complicit and

337
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 1: evil works because it happens kind of in a certain

338
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 1: way slowly, but then you're like, what the fuck, and

339
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,919
Speaker 1: I think you know it just it does. You're mentioning

340
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: the Holocaust like totally makes you think about the Germans

341
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: that lived Nazi Germany that weren't like gung hoo Nazis.

342
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: But then we're also caught there and I don't think

343
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 1: anybody came and was like, hey, this is your ticket

344
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 1: out of the Nazi Party or whatever, which is one

345
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 1: less is like be a defector or something and a

346
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 1: conspirator conspirator and be executed. Yeah, so, and I feel

347
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: like giving these people a way to leave something that

348
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: is like, so, I mean, someone making you complicit and

349
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,880
Speaker 1: evil is fucked up. So giving someone a way out,

350
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: I think is like actually a real way to work

351
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 1: at the problem, as opposed to just be like this

352
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,679
Speaker 1: is fucked up. Well, I mean it definitely helps weaken

353
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: that agency, but I think, yeah, the real solutions have

354
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 1: to come from further up. But I think that's where

355
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: we're at least giving acknowledging the humanity of people who

356
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: are in a situation they probably also don't want to

357
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 1: be in, and that there are people like that again

358
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 1: and they're also evil. Course we're out here getting off

359
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 1: on watching children cry, yeah, or who are when journalists

360
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: come in and be like, oh, so you write fake news?

361
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 1: Oh right, right, for the fake news. Why don't you

362
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: a propaganda Yeah, you have to admit that that's what

363
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: you do, and you won't and you'll get your passport back. Yeah,

364
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: that's like, I'm sorry to have a journalist named Ben Watson.

365
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: I think at L A X or maybe jfk Um.

366
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 1: So here's some propaganda suck my ship. Yeah, that is

367
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 1: some propaganda for sure. All Right, we're gonna take a

368
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: quick break. We'll be right back. And we're back, and

369
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 1: it's time to sort of check in with a whistleblower

370
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: ongoing my alarm zaga was it was? Did you have

371
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: a flashback to when you had alarms? Yeah? Just well

372
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 1: no on my phone. Oh just in general that was

373
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: always my alarm. It was in the morning. No, Now

374
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 1: it's no diggity, no doubt. Oh, something a little bit easier, yeah, yeah, yeah,

375
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 1: just the beginning whistle does make you feel in a

376
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: good mood though, when you wake right away. Yeah, I've

377
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,360
Speaker 1: had I've noticed when I used to wake up to alarm,

378
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 1: the song that would wake me up was ruined because

379
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 1: I hated my own mad at it. Yeah, that's a

380
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:58,120
Speaker 1: whole other show. What are you saying about our constitutional democracy? Yeah?

381
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: So all right, and I'm just kidding. I feel like

382
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 1: we need to take a step back, like, you know,

383
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: just kind of through osmosis, taking in like what the

384
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: media is saying right now. It seems like they're treating

385
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: this like another Trump scandal, sort of we've were crossing

386
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: the rubicon right rather than this is like even even

387
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:23,640
Speaker 1: on the left, the Democrats are treating it like, I mean,

388
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: this is we've only had three four impeachments, three impeachments

389
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 1: in the history of the country. I don't I don't

390
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 1: even think that's giving it the problem. Like I think

391
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: this is outside of US history, Like you can't judge

392
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: it on the continuum of US history because that's not

393
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,199
Speaker 1: who this is. This is a dictator trying to sweep

394
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 1: to power and end the country as we know it.

395
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 1: And he's not gonna stop until he's done that, or

396
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: he's in prison, like it doesn't matter. I know, like

397
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 1: a lot of people are just like it's really easy

398
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: to under rate him or or just like be like, ah,

399
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 1: he's an idiot. But whether he's you know, just exactly

400
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 1: the right type of idiot for this moment, or he's

401
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: like a genius, he's effective at what he's doing. And

402
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: it seems I just got the feeling in the past

403
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 1: twenty four hours like he's successfully weathering the fact that

404
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 1: he admitted to cheating on an election that's currently going on.

405
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 1: And that's like so stark, like that's that's the whole thing,

406
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 1: that's the whole system, Like and and the things that

407
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 1: are supposed to check him are the media and Congress,

408
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 1: and he's basically rendered them moot at this point, and

409
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: we're still I feel like we're still treating like that.

410
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: That's what seems different this time to me is Congress

411
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,199
Speaker 1: just has proven like there there's nothing that can be

412
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 1: done well because we're we're up against somebody who literally

413
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,159
Speaker 1: doesn't give a funk about the law. Like and in

414
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: that letter right where he was like telling Congress, he's

415
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 1: like I'm not fucking with this and like literally like

416
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: I'm not really feeling this, so go on, like I'm

417
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 1: not gonna do anything. And the way the language that's

418
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:23,640
Speaker 1: being used right characterizing like the impeachment thing he's calling

419
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: in that letter right says never before in our history

420
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 1: has the House of Representatives under the control of either

421
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: political party taking the American people down the dangerous path

422
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: you seem determined to pursue. So that is saying I'm

423
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: diametrically opposed to a constitutionally UH sanctioned UH ability or

424
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: power granted to the Congress, and then saying then to

425
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: try and spend this as overturning the election is another thing,

426
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 1: like we're going into we're not actually acknowledging what's happening.

427
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 1: It's all trying to obscure what's actually going on. And

428
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 1: it's kind of like that idea. I always bring up

429
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: the same thing from history of like when the Vikings

430
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: pulled up to continental Europe. They were used to just

431
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: smashing motherfucker's and taking their ship, and they came to

432
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: Europe and they saw fucking monasteries and ship where there

433
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: was a lot of money, gold or whatever, that we're

434
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: being protected by monks who were like relying on people's

435
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:23,640
Speaker 1: faith or fear of God to deter people from going

436
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 1: into the fucking places and stealing everything and smashing it up.

437
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,160
Speaker 1: The Vikings pulled up, they have they don't have that context.

438
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: They said, this is it. Yeah, watch me smash the

439
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: funk out of y'all. You take this ship. And that's

440
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: where like what the people used to have the fear

441
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: of God in them, and now we are we are

442
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: fully in this mode now where other people might have

443
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: been like, shit, okay, a subpoena that that I should

444
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 1: probably follow that because you know the law and not

445
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: going to respond to that stuff like I don't. I

446
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: don't have a solution other than that. Everybody needs to

447
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: start taking it like way more seriously and recognize it

448
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 1: as the you know, exist anchol threat that it is.

449
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: But he is, He's told us who he is. He's

450
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 1: a dictator. We're going to if he gets away with this,

451
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 1: we're going to be letting him get away with being

452
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,199
Speaker 1: a dictator. Uh, we haven't had one of those in

453
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 1: American history. The president is other dictators and how their

454
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 1: regimes started in other countries. That's who he wants to be.

455
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 1: That's who our institutions are letting him be or you know,

456
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 1: not trying to let him be. But the media, the

457
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 1: mainstream media, like he's basically invalidated them with the whole

458
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 1: multi year fake news thing. Uh, electoral politics he's invalidating

459
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: by being able to use the powers of the presidency

460
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 1: to cheat on the election. And the other branch of

461
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: the government they're just not holding up. And we keep

462
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: expecting them to come in and prove we're different from

463
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: history and we're different from those other countries that became dictatorships,

464
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: and that doesn't seem to be happening like that. There

465
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 1: needs to be a change in order for that to happen,

466
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: because otherwise, like that's he's not going to go away.

467
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 1: If he gets away with this, He's not going away

468
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 1: next year. And I don't think he's able to win

469
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: five years from now if he's still alive. I think

470
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 1: he's going to you know, the more we let him

471
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 1: act like a dictator who gets to strong arm everyone

472
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: and every institution, the more the more rope he's going

473
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: to take, the more he's gonna do that, and the

474
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 1: harder he's going to be to get away, to get

475
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: out of the office. I think the hard thing is

476
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: hearing you know, Republicans or at least Lindsey Graham being

477
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: like I'm trying to get all the Republicans to sign

478
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: a letter in the Senate basically saying we won't we

479
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: absolutely won't take this seriously in the Senate. And I

480
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: think we also need to really really begin looking more critically,

481
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 1: I mean not that people aren't already, but also looking

482
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 1: at who exactly is enabling this too, Because much as

483
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 1: we focus on like why is Trump doing this, why

484
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 1: is this all all this other should happening to we

485
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 1: should be probably demonstrating in front of the offices, in

486
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: front of these Senate Republicans because these are the people

487
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: who truly are allowing this to happen. They're sort of saying, well,

488
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 1: this is my team. I'm because we've gone into such

489
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 1: our own corners and to such an extent where we're

490
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: over not allowing ourselves or they are not allowing themselves

491
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 1: to see the threat that this person poses. Uh, we

492
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: need to begin to hold their feet to the fire too.

493
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: And I think that's something that's actually missing. A lot

494
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 1: of the reporting is like, oh my god, that can

495
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: can you believe the Justice Apartment doing this and this

496
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 1: blah blah blahs, Like well, hold on, what about the

497
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: senators who are still like just standing idly by and

498
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 1: creating this atmosphere for Trump to flourish into. And I

499
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: think that's another point of rot that has to be addressed.

500
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,480
Speaker 1: Um and a little bit more like emphasis on that too,

501
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 1: because you know, this is happening everywhere in the world

502
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 1: right now too. There many countries at the same time

503
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: who are being like, we're pushing back against corruption. We're

504
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 1: seeing it's happening in Puerto Rico, it's happening in Ukraine,

505
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: it's happening in fucking Bolivia, is happening in Haiti, It's

506
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 1: happening in Iraq, it's happening in Hong Kong. It's there

507
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: are fucking so many places where Egypt where they're saying, yo,

508
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 1: y'all are fucking us the people, what what's good here?

509
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: And I think that's a point where I'm not sure

510
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: Americans are quite at that. You know. The beauty of

511
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,959
Speaker 1: this system is that they've deceived us as voters and

512
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,719
Speaker 1: citizens into thinking this is the best thing that's going on,

513
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 1: and everything is pure. And now we're at that point

514
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: now where all that fucking corruption and rot is we're

515
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: now seeing in the form of ineffective governance, ineffective checks

516
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 1: and balances. The only thing they trying to do is

517
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: check their balances, you know what I mean, in their

518
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 1: bank account exactly. But it's this is sort of this

519
00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: is the byproduct of all of this now and we're

520
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: actually I don't know what could I don't know what

521
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 1: kind of sea change could happen among American people, Yeah,

522
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 1: because they're in more danger than the mainstream like sort

523
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 1: of assumption on either side seems to realize we are

524
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 1: well because I think the Democrats seem to be like, Okay,

525
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: you're going to really just focus, say not not on

526
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: to this, but then than they did. Now what I

527
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,400
Speaker 1: just don't think. I mean, people say this all the

528
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: time about the Democrats, like not enough backbone, right, But

529
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: I'm guessing this is the part. Now, what remedies do

530
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: we have within our constitution to have a how do

531
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 1: you swing back on this? Because what how do you

532
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 1: answer illegality with what more illegality? Because the the I

533
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: mean really the only shot we have or people are thinking.

534
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 1: I was like, well, we'll just have to sue and

535
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: then the Supreme Court will ultimately decide. But do we

536
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 1: really have faith to these people because we've seen over

537
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: the you know, the last few decades that just become

538
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: a fucking you know, the the coach staff for the

539
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: new corporatocracy like, yeah, I get get our people who

540
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: you know, vote in our favor there, right, So I

541
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: don't know, it's it's it's does seem bleak. But then

542
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: I'm curious, as we say, with money, what happens when

543
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 1: the money gets weird? What happens when the economy does

544
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 1: really terribly because already the deficits up. What's then when

545
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 1: Trump took office, the farm bailout is already twice the

546
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: auto bailout. But I mean, I don't. I don't think

547
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 1: we can count on the recession to come safe. It's like, well,

548
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. I don't know. And also remember

549
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: how easy it is to spin like ship. It doesn't

550
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 1: really matter what the facts are to this administration the people, right, no,

551
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 1: but but that's what they get sold, you know what

552
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: I mean. So it's like just because um Obama when

553
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: he was in office reduced unemployment and did so well

554
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: for the economy and it transferred over to Trump's term,

555
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,959
Speaker 1: doesn't mean the Trump is good for the economy, but

556
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: they will spin it like that for But I'm not

557
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: It's just this is the same thing that if it

558
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 1: starts failing, they can be like, well, we're dealing with

559
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: the democratic policies still from Obama. That's really what the

560
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 1: problem is. I'm not talking about how you spend the

561
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: recession to voters. I'm talking about the moneyed class in

562
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 1: this country that are truly at the levels of power,

563
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: the people who are like, yeah, let me get those

564
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: tax cuts, the people who are really pillaging like the country.

565
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: And I think there's a lot at stake for those

566
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: people too, because at the end of the day. Their

567
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 1: god is money. We saw that with the NBA, we

568
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: see that with other video game cover all the China

569
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: stuff that's going on. No one wants to threaten their

570
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: revenue streams. So I'm curious if at a certain point

571
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 1: those have been the moments where people have been like, oh, jeez,

572
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 1: this trade wars sucking us up. What are we gonna do? Like,

573
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: is there a point where that moneyed banking class, the

574
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 1: investment bankers of the world, the corporations of the world,

575
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: it gets becomes untenable for them. I don't It seems

576
00:33:55,840 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 1: like everything he does is ends up actually benefiting the very,

577
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: very wealthiest and most powerful people, Like, yeah, it's fucking

578
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 1: the farmers, but it's not necessarily fucking people who are

579
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 1: viewing things from like a macro economic level and just

580
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 1: kind of looking at America as an economic competitor to China,

581
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 1: like they're that's sort of how he's viewing it too.

582
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 1: And you know, his tax cut is bad for the

583
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: overall economy, but uh, it's good for the wealthiest, like

584
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:35,279
Speaker 1: the absolute the forty wealthiest households in America, and they

585
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,759
Speaker 1: so it seems like I don't know, I I did

586
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:47,479
Speaker 1: hear a political scientist talk about how he thinks that

587
00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:51,280
Speaker 1: the only thing that people were reacting to and past

588
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: impeachments was the economy. So like Clinton, we look back

589
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,279
Speaker 1: more like people just didn't care about the sexual more

590
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,080
Speaker 1: is but when you actually asked them about that, but

591
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: we're like not happy with Clinton, but they were just

592
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,879
Speaker 1: the economy was moving in the right direction, and so

593
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: they they're opinion basically followed the economy, and the economy

594
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,880
Speaker 1: is doing well right now. So he doesn't see opinion

595
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 1: changing on this story unless the economy starts going in

596
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,839
Speaker 1: the shipter Uh, And I I guess you know, it's

597
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: debatable whether the economy is doing well. But his take

598
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 1: is that like the stock market and ship like that,

599
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:34,360
Speaker 1: whereas Nixon, like his the big public opinion turn about

600
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,320
Speaker 1: actually happened right as the economy was hitting the shifter.

601
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 1: So it's like those things need to I guess align

602
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 1: with one another. Uh, in order for something to to change,

603
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 1: is his theory. It's also that everything has been at

604
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: an eleven for like a couple of years, so people

605
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 1: have run out of outrage and like, I'm definitely not

606
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: the first person to say that, but people I don't

607
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,399
Speaker 1: know how you get people interested in they're like increasingly

608
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 1: horrible dictator moves that are happening in this country when

609
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 1: they've already been like what the fund is happening for

610
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 1: for years. Yeah, I think that is really a good point.

611
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,799
Speaker 1: I think that is what we're seeing right now is

612
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:23,240
Speaker 1: just that people like there's no sense of proportion anymore,

613
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 1: because we've spent the last year, you know, being told

614
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: everything is life and death, and you know, because it

615
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,880
Speaker 1: kind of is, but he just has a a tendency

616
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 1: to just take up all the oxygen in the news cycle,

617
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 1: and so it's it is exhausting. And we've talked before,

618
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: just from a historical perspective, how in the early thirties,

619
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 1: when the Nazi swept power and we're doing all this

620
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: outrageous stuff, all the headlines were about that. But by

621
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 1: the time they you know, started the Holocaust and started

622
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 1: invading other countries, none of the headlines in Germany or

623
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:01,360
Speaker 1: like in even surrounding countries were about that. Because people

624
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,360
Speaker 1: are just fucking tired of it, That's what it was.

625
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 1: And it was just years and years of reading those

626
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: headlines and you can only right the same story. It's

627
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 1: almost like a hack in the time space continuum, where

628
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,399
Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, just keep doing the same ship

629
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 1: over and over and over again. And it's sort of

630
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 1: like Trump's thing where he accuses his enemy of the

631
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: thing that he has done bad so that when they

632
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 1: find out what he's done bad, he you know, there's

633
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,720
Speaker 1: just people have already heard that word a hundred times

634
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: and it's just kind of losing all meaning. Yeah. I mean,

635
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: the one I think, the one thing I can feel

636
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 1: somewhat good about is that some of the other cases

637
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: that are floating through the courts are absolutely not going

638
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 1: Trump's way, and there they are getting orders on certain

639
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 1: things to do, you know, like right now, there's this

640
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,360
Speaker 1: whole idea of them trying to keep the some of

641
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: the grand jury material from the Mother Report away from Congress,

642
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: and their argument the judge was asking like, so do

643
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: you think in wat in the Watergate like impeachment, they

644
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 1: shouldn't have had this material, but like like law enforcement

645
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 1: these other people should And they're like, yeah, absolutely, they

646
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: shouldn't have had that in the Nixon era. And the

647
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:17,880
Speaker 1: judge's response was, wow, okay, that's a very interesting argument,

648
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 1: Like and I can't believe I'm hearing this, so I

649
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 1: think there because that's the thing though, too, when it

650
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: gets to court, there are moments where they are absolutely

651
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: just trying to rewrite the law in a way that

652
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,839
Speaker 1: makes no sense because it's purely a stalling tactic. It's

653
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,360
Speaker 1: not based in any legal argument. A lot of this,

654
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: a lot of the stalling tacts are I mean, I'm

655
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: sure they've they found clever ways to try and maneuver things,

656
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 1: but for the most part, a lot of these things

657
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,840
Speaker 1: are there because they just they're like, look, we'll just

658
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 1: take a ridiculous take. We'll try and run out the clock.

659
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 1: Maybe they won't be able to get a vote on

660
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:49,479
Speaker 1: impeachment until closer to the election, and then they won't

661
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: take a vote because then they don't want some of

662
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,799
Speaker 1: the vulnerable people in the House or Senate to have

663
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 1: to have that on their record and answer for that.

664
00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 1: There's this like, uh, there's just a lot of bullshit. Yeah, um,

665
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:05,920
Speaker 1: but yeah, it's hard to know because clearly the Congress

666
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: is unable to be a check on the power of

667
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 1: the executive at this point. So I guess we'll see

668
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 1: what the judiciary does. Hopefully one of the three, but

669
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 1: if not, I mean, I think it's true. That's something

670
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 1: people really do need to understand, Like what, you know,

671
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 1: this isn't a uniquely Trump thing. This has been America

672
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 1: since you know. It's inception of this sort of imbalance.

673
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,319
Speaker 1: And I think it's easier when like the times were

674
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: really good in the in the middle of this last century,

675
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 1: up until the end of this up until the beginning

676
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:42,400
Speaker 1: of this one, and as people are becoming starting to

677
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: see what is really happening, you'd hope that we can

678
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,879
Speaker 1: tap into some kind of sense of outrage to try

679
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 1: and restore some kind of balance. But that's why it's

680
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 1: important to look at the kind of candidates we want

681
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 1: to run also because ultimately the business as usual type

682
00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 1: people who are here to be like, oh, yeah, I'm

683
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 1: here for you a small government and blah Blahla's like

684
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,799
Speaker 1: that's not clear enough, and I think you're just a

685
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,920
Speaker 1: pod person caping for a corporatocracy. Like we need we

686
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: need to actually put human beings back into these positions.

687
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's a fucking it's a long ass process

688
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 1: and a terrible evolution. We're having to witness install motion

689
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:22,359
Speaker 1: right now. But you know, we've successfully done long processes

690
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 1: that got us things that we then immediately started taking

691
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:29,319
Speaker 1: for granted. But you know, it can be done. I

692
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 1: did want to talk really briefly. There was a chart

693
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 1: that I was talking about earlier this week about basically

694
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 1: the tax rate as it applies to different income groups,

695
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: and it kind of shows the evolution over time. And

696
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: you know, in nineteen fifty it goes up in an

697
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: up direction, so the people who are the richest four

698
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:56,760
Speaker 1: hundred households in the United States are paying the highest

699
00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:01,840
Speaker 1: tax rate. Uh, and then it just steadily goes in

700
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 1: the opposite direction until uh, this past year two thousand eighteen, Uh,

701
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 1: the top four hundred households are paying the lowest tax

702
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 1: rate because of loopholes and just various things they are

703
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 1: able to exploit. UM, and they're The article that that

704
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 1: chart appears in explains how Trump's tax cut has affected

705
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,359
Speaker 1: you know, middle class and poor families basically keeping their

706
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: taxes flat. And uh. You know, meanwhile, wealthier families and

707
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,320
Speaker 1: the wealthiest families have seen just enormous returns. So it's

708
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:45,560
Speaker 1: going even more in that direction. And this is as

709
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 1: America is seeing, uh, wealth and balance and income imbalance,

710
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 1: inequality on level with like you know, developing nations or

711
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 1: third world countries or whatever phrase you use, and that

712
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: guy Hartman is like an economist and you know general

713
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,919
Speaker 1: take machine. I was talking about how you know, there's

714
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:09,919
Speaker 1: a multimillion dollar effort through these news organizations and through

715
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: Facebook to create people who are going to buy this

716
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:18,560
Speaker 1: mentality or this idea that we need wealthy people and

717
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 1: we need to keep their taxes low, and all these

718
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 1: myths that helped to keep right and all these ideas,

719
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 1: whether it's distraction and blaming other people, that keep a

720
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:32,399
Speaker 1: very large group of Americans locked into this mentality that

721
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 1: this is fine, like voting against your interests, that there's

722
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 1: no such thing as voting against your interests. And that's

723
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 1: a very interesting point because that is something that has

724
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 1: been cultivated over time because these are the exact people

725
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 1: who you can say, I know you're you're mad about

726
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: these costs of living in these these this, this, that

727
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: and the other, but are you willing to actually see

728
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 1: who you're voting for and what the policies that they

729
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:56,839
Speaker 1: enact actually do to you? And then but that's part

730
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: of the I mean, to a certain level, it's also

731
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 1: happening on left in terms of just sort of blindly

732
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 1: following your side or whatever, but specifically to be like

733
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 1: voting against your own interests, Like this is also a

734
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,120
Speaker 1: part of the Grand Plan as well. Yeah, and I

735
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 1: mean the left is growing and growing, so I don't

736
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 1: know how much that's blindly following, you know, as much

737
00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 1: as it. I just mean more like there are people

738
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: who are just blindly will take listen to takes of

739
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 1: centrist or neoliberal talking points not begin to examine them.

740
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 1: I think that in and of itself is a form

741
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 1: of people just sort of droning off. But then there's

742
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 1: a very other specific brand too, where it's like, let's

743
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 1: not look about let's not think about corruption or what

744
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,279
Speaker 1: these people were voting in what they do. It's more like,

745
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 1: hey man, we're just trying to make America great. Let's

746
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:43,759
Speaker 1: keep that ship vague. Yeah. But anyways, that chart and

747
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,719
Speaker 1: this op ed is part of a review of a

748
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:50,840
Speaker 1: book called The Triumph of Injustice that is about how

749
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 1: really wealthy people and companies have found ways to not

750
00:43:56,200 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 1: pay taxes and how that is a huge you injustice

751
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 1: that has actual impacts on you know, the lives of

752
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 1: people and people's ability to live happy, healthy lives that

753
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:13,239
Speaker 1: are just not die um. And I think it's being

754
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: released next week, but it's you know, they do have

755
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 1: solutions in the book that are about how to adapt

756
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:23,920
Speaker 1: the tax code, and I think some of the Democratic

757
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 1: candidates in the election are actually adopting some of their suggestions.

758
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 1: I think Elizabeth Warren's tax plan is actually pretty heavily

759
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:38,799
Speaker 1: influenced by these two award winning economists. I think it's

760
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,239
Speaker 1: also an attitude like and a mentality thing because when uh,

761
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 1: when we went to Helsinki for the podcast, like, the

762
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: thing that struck us so much is that the government

763
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,960
Speaker 1: there invests in their citizens. They think that's one of

764
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 1: their greatest strengths is having that and caring about their people,

765
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 1: so providing infrastructure to support that, not to just say

766
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 1: that it that's how their government works. And then it's

767
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 1: not an accident that that that's considered to be the

768
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 1: happiest country in the world. It's because they're not looking

769
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 1: at their citizens as a piggy bank, you know, or

770
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: as a resource to exploit. They're looking at their citizens

771
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:24,239
Speaker 1: as a resource period, right, Yeah, And I mean that

772
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 1: I just think that it's dishonest to pretend that the

773
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:34,319
Speaker 1: you know that America isn't completely different from that, and

774
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 1: that you know, the extremely wealthy are aren't you know,

775
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:43,239
Speaker 1: basically robbing the country blind like that that's what has happened. Well,

776
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 1: if you just look right, like even Inten McDonald's workers

777
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 1: in Denmark made twenty an hour twenty u s d

778
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: an hour, and here we're still out here trying to

779
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:57,399
Speaker 1: be like can we get fifteen? And if you really

780
00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: think it, like you know, back in probably two thousand

781
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 1: eight or something, in this book called Screwed About, how

782
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: like the middle class has been dismantled again by Tom

783
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,360
Speaker 1: Hartman raises this point of like, if you really actually

784
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 1: tied CEO paid a minimum wage around the time he

785
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:16,240
Speaker 1: wrote that book, a minimum wage should have been twenty

786
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:19,040
Speaker 1: five dollars an hour. So probably now at this point,

787
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 1: minimum wage should probably be thirty five an hour. If

788
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: we're talking about if it's if we're if the workers

789
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 1: are going to be paid proportionately to what the CEO is,

790
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,839
Speaker 1: how exponential their growth is in their income, then that's

791
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,399
Speaker 1: what minimum wage should be. And I think a lot

792
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 1: of people don't really take into account that we are

793
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:40,880
Speaker 1: fucking getting suckered by people that are this wealthy it's like, well,

794
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 1: you know, if if people work uh, forty hours a week,

795
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,160
Speaker 1: you gotta give him an hour lunch or something, blah

796
00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,840
Speaker 1: blah blah, Well maybe they'll work thirty eight hours, you

797
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 1: know what I mean? And how these corn people cut

798
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:53,680
Speaker 1: these corners at the cost of our own quality of life.

799
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 1: And I think that's really hopefully people really get in

800
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,839
Speaker 1: touch with the true class warfare that is actually going

801
00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:01,760
Speaker 1: on in this country and a lot of the development,

802
00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:03,919
Speaker 1: and it's signed into the health care system and signed

803
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 1: into the schools and the prison it's all of it.

804
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,200
Speaker 1: Our focus should be on how can we make our

805
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 1: citizens the most happy and have the most enriched lives

806
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,879
Speaker 1: instead of how can we get the most money out

807
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:21,759
Speaker 1: of them. We don't care if they die, We don't

808
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:24,040
Speaker 1: want to take care of them if they're sick. Fuck

809
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 1: you because how much it gonna cost. I'm gonna cost

810
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:30,360
Speaker 1: it comes down, right, because the profits are the fucking god.

811
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:34,120
Speaker 1: But how much it's gonna cost is like, that's an

812
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 1: important part of the thing, is that the reason we

813
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 1: don't have as much money to pay for these things

814
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 1: is because the richest one percent are actually not paying

815
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,480
Speaker 1: their fair share, right, not even close to it. Like

816
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,920
Speaker 1: it's so this book with these two economists suggest a

817
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:53,200
Speaker 1: you know, progressive tax code that's more in line with

818
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: the tax code at the outset of like America's greatest

819
00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,759
Speaker 1: period of prosperity. The last time it was imbalances it

820
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,640
Speaker 1: currently is was right before the Great Depression. So take

821
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 1: that for what it is. But they just say, you know,

822
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 1: bring in the richest one percent would roughly have to

823
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 1: pay double the tax rate that they're paying now or

824
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:18,879
Speaker 1: six which would bring in seven billion dollars a year

825
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,399
Speaker 1: or four percent of g d P, enough to pay

826
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:26,880
Speaker 1: for universal pre k, an infrastructure program, medical research, clean energy,

827
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 1: and yeah, they point out those are the kinds of

828
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:33,279
Speaker 1: policies that lift economic growth because, like you said, you're

829
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:38,360
Speaker 1: treating your citizens like assets, like you know, things to

830
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:41,360
Speaker 1: be invested in, as opposed to things to be exploited

831
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:43,600
Speaker 1: like or barnacles that you need to scrape off the

832
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:48,359
Speaker 1: hull of the SS predatory profit s s U. S dollar. Yeah,

833
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,799
Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna take a quick break and when

834
00:48:51,800 --> 00:49:05,160
Speaker 1: we come back, we're gonna talk about footballers wives. And

835
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:09,840
Speaker 1: we're back, and Myles, let's get right into the footie

836
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 1: drama because I need now, man, It's okay. So in

837
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:21,920
Speaker 1: the UK they refer to the wives and girlfriends of

838
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 1: footballers as wags. Okay, that's what they call them wags

839
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 1: over there, and right now there's where does that stand for?

840
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 1: Wives and girlfriends? Got it? Okay? They call them that

841
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,319
Speaker 1: here too. Oh did they adopt that? Now? For a

842
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,640
Speaker 1: long time they had a wags show on TLC or

843
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:39,319
Speaker 1: BROB or something like that. Hey, um so right now

844
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,719
Speaker 1: the drama is between the wives of two England strikers.

845
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 1: Will not anymore for Wayne Rooney, Wayne Rooney who famously

846
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:49,879
Speaker 1: played for Manchester United and for d C United and

847
00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 1: Jamie Vardy who plays for Leicester City. Uh and is

848
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,400
Speaker 1: a very interesting character. Just some background on Jamie Varty.

849
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,160
Speaker 1: He's still good because he's all right. I mean he's

850
00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:02,200
Speaker 1: not nearly as good as this season when Lester won

851
00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 1: the league in um, but around this guy, he like

852
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,120
Speaker 1: it was kind of the dude at certain points he

853
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 1: had to play with an ankle agle monitor on for

854
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:17,040
Speaker 1: some shit he got into I think may have been

855
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:19,520
Speaker 1: drink driving or something as they call it in the UK.

856
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 1: And also Wayne Rooney also, uh, he's been he's been

857
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:25,759
Speaker 1: cheating a lot on his wife, a lot of drink

858
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:29,400
Speaker 1: driving over there too. Um but interesting fact by Jamie

859
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:31,400
Speaker 1: Vardy there was a in his book he had like

860
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,520
Speaker 1: a dead leg that he couldn't get over, and the

861
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 1: physio was like, what the fund is going on with you?

862
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 1: We're like, we're rehabbing, arresting, and he find out this

863
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:42,719
Speaker 1: dude has just been drinking a bunch of vodka. Uh.

864
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:44,759
Speaker 1: And so what he would do is he would fill

865
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,800
Speaker 1: up like a three leader bottle of vodka with only

866
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:51,279
Speaker 1: red and purple Skittles because he liked the flavor and

867
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 1: that was like his fucking uh. And he also famously

868
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 1: when he would do that before playing or like I think,

869
00:50:57,680 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 1: like whenever, like that was just part of a ship.

870
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 1: I mean he would drink a ton a red Bull

871
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 1: before playing um and famously took a ship while playing

872
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 1: Arsenal in the middle of a match. Wait, what do

873
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:08,799
Speaker 1: you mean like on the field? No? No No, no, he

874
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 1: like left, This isn't a bigger deal on the field.

875
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 1: I need more. Another thing is he would say in

876
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 1: the season that his team won fifteen and sixteen, he

877
00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:22,360
Speaker 1: would drink basically a bottle of like half Gator gade

878
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 1: half port every night that was his pre match me

879
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:29,960
Speaker 1: drink or the night before and then the day of

880
00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 1: he would drink a double espresso and three cans of

881
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 1: Red Bull. Anyway, so he's on his own vibe. So

882
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 1: back to the lecture at hand for you. So Rebecca,

883
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:44,840
Speaker 1: so his wife, Rebecca Vardy and Colleen Rooney, wife of

884
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:48,359
Speaker 1: Wayne Rooney, are into some ship right now because uh,

885
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:50,920
Speaker 1: Colleen Rooney was noticing a lot of ship from her

886
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,840
Speaker 1: personal life was ending up in the sun the tabloid

887
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,319
Speaker 1: over there and couldn't understand because she had her own

888
00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,920
Speaker 1: like private Instagram account that was only for people she

889
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,800
Speaker 1: knew personally. So she was like, how the fuck is

890
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,239
Speaker 1: sh I'm talking about here ending up there? So she

891
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:07,319
Speaker 1: concocted a little fucking experiment to see how where the

892
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:09,920
Speaker 1: leak would go. Yeah, so she started on her stories.

893
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:13,520
Speaker 1: She blocked everyone she followed or that was following her

894
00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 1: except for one woman, Rebecca Vardy. Okay, and was like

895
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:21,360
Speaker 1: and for five months started putting in bullshit stories to

896
00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:23,360
Speaker 1: see if any of them would end up in the sun. Like.

897
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:26,239
Speaker 1: So she's like, oh my basement flooded or this other thing.

898
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:28,360
Speaker 1: Like she went to Mexico to for some kind of

899
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 1: experimental thing where she would be able to select the

900
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,799
Speaker 1: gender of her child when she was pregnant, and these

901
00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:35,640
Speaker 1: things made it into the sun. So then I think

902
00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:40,080
Speaker 1: yesterday she came out with it and was like, so

903
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,400
Speaker 1: let me gather around kids. I've been doing this experiment

904
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 1: because a lot I've noticed a lot of disturbing things

905
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:47,959
Speaker 1: have been shown up in the tabloids. And for five

906
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,960
Speaker 1: months I've been doing this thing, and it's Rebecca Vardy

907
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:56,160
Speaker 1: and her excuse M. Now I will read the defense

908
00:52:56,239 --> 00:52:58,960
Speaker 1: that Rebecca v already tweeted out for this kind of

909
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 1: you know, underhandedness. She says, as I have just said

910
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 1: to you on the phone, I wish you had called

911
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:06,880
Speaker 1: me if you thought this. I never speak to anyone

912
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 1: about you, as various journalists who have asked me to

913
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:11,839
Speaker 1: over the years can vouch for. If you thought this

914
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 1: was happening, you could have told me, and I could

915
00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:16,399
Speaker 1: have changed my passwords to see if it stopped. Over

916
00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 1: the years, various people have had access to my insta,

917
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 1: and just this week I found I was following people

918
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 1: I didn't know, and I never followed in my life.

919
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,320
Speaker 1: I'm not being funny, but I don't need the money.

920
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 1: What would I gain from selling stories on you? I

921
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,440
Speaker 1: liked you a lot, Coneen, and I'm so upset that

922
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:36,600
Speaker 1: you have chosen to do this, especially when I'm heavily pregnant.

923
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:39,120
Speaker 1: I'm disgusted that I'm even having to deny this. You

924
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:42,000
Speaker 1: should have called me the first time this happened. Heartbreak emoji.

925
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,680
Speaker 1: Do we think? I think when you start doing the

926
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:49,239
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm starting to follow counts. I never seen it.

927
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: Come on, it's just, uh, you love to see it though.

928
00:53:55,640 --> 00:54:01,560
Speaker 1: I really do like that. Her story is that somebody

929
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 1: broke into her account found out about this other woman's

930
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:11,040
Speaker 1: Instagram posts, maybe by following her. So someone broke into

931
00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 1: her account to follow someone else, I guess, and get

932
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 1: secrets about their private life, and then sold those secrets

933
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:21,800
Speaker 1: to the sun. Maybe if if we're living in her world. Huh,

934
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:24,320
Speaker 1: it's a it's a tough sell. It's a hard bargain,

935
00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 1: that is. Yeah, I'm not buying it. Come up with

936
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 1: a better lie, Colleen. Well the no, Colleen is the

937
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:36,399
Speaker 1: victim here, Colleen, But you know a victim, don't play

938
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 1: the victim. Colleen Rooney Yo Wayne has been doing her

939
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:41,800
Speaker 1: dirty for a long time pregnant. He was like sleeping

940
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 1: around on her, having like three sims and ship. So

941
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:47,360
Speaker 1: she's been she's been through it. His name is Wayne Rooney.

942
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,800
Speaker 1: This is on her. Yeah, he had terrible hair plugs.

943
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,320
Speaker 1: Did you not marry a guy named that? I thought

944
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,400
Speaker 1: he was in his fifties? You did? Yeah, just legitimate

945
00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:59,040
Speaker 1: based on like I had seen him like many, like

946
00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:02,160
Speaker 1: a decade ago, and I think it was during one

947
00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:03,919
Speaker 1: of the World Cups when he was like the best

948
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:07,960
Speaker 1: player on England's team, and I was like, oh, well,

949
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:12,359
Speaker 1: that guy must be very old at that time, and

950
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 1: now he must be like playing on the seniors Tour

951
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 1: or whatever. This he'll be thirty, I think four this year. Yeah,

952
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:23,640
Speaker 1: he's dominant. He's scored some pretty wild goals in the MLS,

953
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 1: which people tend to do when they come over from Europe.

954
00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 1: But um, so this is like if the Shack Damian

955
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:37,239
Speaker 1: Lillard beef were their wives. Yeah, kind of maybe, I mean,

956
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,080
Speaker 1: and a little bit messier. I don't know what their

957
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:42,040
Speaker 1: beef is to begin with, really, um, but I do

958
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 1: know that there was an interesting stat for the amount

959
00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:46,840
Speaker 1: of minutes Wayne Rooney and Jamie's already played together on

960
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,200
Speaker 1: the pitch. They never created his goal scoring chance for

961
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:51,600
Speaker 1: the other player. Yeah, so that's true, not a lot

962
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 1: of harmony. And that's that three lion squad. That's how

963
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:57,120
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, that's how you know exactly right, Uh

964
00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,960
Speaker 1: And any thoughts on this, Sophia, I mean, just too

965
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:05,040
Speaker 1: many almost. Yeah, it's just a mess. It's a mess,

966
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,680
Speaker 1: and it's I don't I really don't know if Rebecca

967
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 1: already was like trying to make money or she's just

968
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:13,399
Speaker 1: really hated you know, there's got to be something else, right,

969
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,880
Speaker 1: Like if Rebecca I've already really wasn't I believe she

970
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:19,839
Speaker 1: probably was the one obviously the least her friend over

971
00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 1: was it her friend or was it one of those

972
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:25,040
Speaker 1: things where she's like, it's all because you didn't come

973
00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:27,160
Speaker 1: to my baby shower type of ship, or like you

974
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 1: fucking shaded me at this restaurant right there, competitively fucking

975
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,759
Speaker 1: the best soccer player in England. Well, I wouldn't go

976
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:40,000
Speaker 1: that far. You wouldn't know. They're not their peaks weren't

977
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:42,600
Speaker 1: at the same time. So it was hard like Jamie

978
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:44,319
Speaker 1: already had his time a few years ago, and Wayne

979
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,680
Speaker 1: when he had his like seven years ago. So right,

980
00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 1: but I'm just wondering if she was like feeling. But

981
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:53,960
Speaker 1: I guess historically, right, like Wayne Rooney was the man,

982
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 1: and then when Jamie's already had his huge season, then

983
00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:59,120
Speaker 1: he became the man. So maybe since there were two

984
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 1: mans on the Okay, all right, we'll shout out to

985
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 1: the shout out to them. Uh, let's check in with

986
00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:11,200
Speaker 1: the ongoing uh men story. Uh. We haven't checked in

987
00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:17,400
Speaker 1: for a while, but Romean Pharaoh's book is dropping of October,

988
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:21,400
Speaker 1: and it's got some details in it that are horrifying.

989
00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:25,200
Speaker 1: Or is the book specifically about Matt Lower The books

990
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:32,560
Speaker 1: about the whole thing, but the whole Weinstein got it right.

991
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,240
Speaker 1: But he he was the one who broke the Loer

992
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:39,960
Speaker 1: news and in fact, he was at NBC News when

993
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:44,960
Speaker 1: he was building the Weinstein story, and NBC News was

994
00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 1: he was trying to block the story. And there's some

995
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:52,880
Speaker 1: actual amazing quotes from the book and on that subject,

996
00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 1: says from this Variety article. The book paints NBC News

997
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 1: executives as obstructive in his Weinstein investigation, as Pharaoh amassed

998
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:06,880
Speaker 1: his reporting about Weinstein. Oppenheim Noah Oppenheim, who was the

999
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:10,120
Speaker 1: head of NBC News asked him, like, is this really

1000
00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:13,040
Speaker 1: worth it? Oh my god, I suggested, no one knows

1001
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:16,960
Speaker 1: who Weinstein is. Pharah was eventually told to stop reporting

1002
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:20,120
Speaker 1: the story because it was under review at NBC Universal.

1003
00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 1: This is a Steve Burke decision. It's an Andy decision.

1004
00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:27,040
Speaker 1: Richard Greenberg, the head of NBC News is the investigative unit,

1005
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:30,320
Speaker 1: told him, uh, and so, since he didn't believe NBC

1006
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:32,240
Speaker 1: would ever run his story, he took it to The

1007
00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:36,919
Speaker 1: New Yorker and promptly want a pulitzer. So good call

1008
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,440
Speaker 1: on that one. Dip shit. Yeah, well, seeing again, you

1009
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:42,480
Speaker 1: see the kinds of people in positions of power that

1010
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:44,640
Speaker 1: keep this kind of ship in place. All the people

1011
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:46,880
Speaker 1: at NBC News. You have someone who is being like

1012
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:49,720
Speaker 1: this needs to be reported, and people dragging their feet

1013
00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 1: and enabling this ship. Yeah. So you love how good

1014
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:56,240
Speaker 1: Ronan Pharaoh though, is that is at his job. He's

1015
00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:59,000
Speaker 1: like a fucking hound dog. He's like, what's that? The

1016
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:05,440
Speaker 1: scent of injustice solved it? Yeah? Um, so what is

1017
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:09,439
Speaker 1: this new? The our thing basically is it's going from

1018
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:12,080
Speaker 1: he was having all sorts of extramarital affairs all over

1019
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:18,040
Speaker 1: the desks at NBC. UH news to rape allegation the

1020
00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:22,720
Speaker 1: colleague that he's right, so uh and his statement is

1021
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:28,000
Speaker 1: just the smuggist ship that you've ever heard. But so basically,

1022
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,800
Speaker 1: the colleague was drunk and they were hooking up, and

1023
00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:35,080
Speaker 1: she said no to a certain sex act and he

1024
00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:38,600
Speaker 1: just went and did it anyways, And she says, first

1025
00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:41,440
Speaker 1: of all, she was too drunk to consent, and second

1026
00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:45,720
Speaker 1: of all, he you know, raped her. Uh And in

1027
00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:49,280
Speaker 1: his defense is like you was consensual. Basically it was consensual.

1028
00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 1: And here let me describe in detail what sex acts

1029
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 1: were engaged. One of the really brutal details is that

1030
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 1: she was still at NBC News was when Lour was fired,

1031
01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:04,440
Speaker 1: and she was made to sit in meetings where people

1032
01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:08,880
Speaker 1: who probably knew she was the accuser were like casting

1033
01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:13,880
Speaker 1: doubt on her account and defending Lour and fuck yeah.

1034
01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 1: NBC eventually paid her some figure settlement after putting her

1035
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:23,720
Speaker 1: on medical leave, and asked her to release a statement

1036
01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 1: saying she was leaving to pursue other interests and that

1037
01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:30,720
Speaker 1: NBC News had been an example of how to properly

1038
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,480
Speaker 1: handle sexual assault in the workplace. Oh yeah, I think

1039
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:36,840
Speaker 1: the second help you enable guy by installing trap doors

1040
01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:39,840
Speaker 1: in their office, the door lock, the lock button, Like

1041
01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:47,560
Speaker 1: that's like literally some super villain ship. Like no one

1042
01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 1: in real life has a locking mechanism under their desk

1043
01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 1: like that, that's Mr Burns ship. That's so weird and

1044
01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:58,720
Speaker 1: fucked up. Don't bring Mr Burns into this. Don't just

1045
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:03,080
Speaker 1: smirch his good name arch that selfish billionaire. We're also

1046
01:01:03,160 --> 01:01:06,200
Speaker 1: learning some creepy details about James Franco, who sort of

1047
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:08,640
Speaker 1: I don't know like what happened. It was it was

1048
01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:11,880
Speaker 1: almost like he his name got brought up at the

1049
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,600
Speaker 1: very end when people are like, all right, enough with

1050
01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:17,200
Speaker 1: this story, let's move on. I don't know his fun

1051
01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:19,560
Speaker 1: out of that one. Really, yeah, I mean I think

1052
01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:23,000
Speaker 1: he also just like the Earth. But how James Franco

1053
01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 1: hasn't had consequences for all the ship? He want an

1054
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:27,960
Speaker 1: s on l and made fun of the fact that

1055
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:30,680
Speaker 1: he was texting with that high school girl like Instagram

1056
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:34,680
Speaker 1: damning do you remember that? Oh? Yes, Christ? Like what

1057
01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:37,560
Speaker 1: are we doing? What's wrong with that? Like? How good

1058
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:40,960
Speaker 1: an actor do we think he is? I don't think

1059
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 1: he's good enough to ignore him fucking underage girls, but

1060
01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:46,640
Speaker 1: he's got that vibe of a chill stoner and then

1061
01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:49,640
Speaker 1: like I've always thought that his brother Dave Franco was

1062
01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:52,080
Speaker 1: the good one, and he's the trash Dave. Oh, David

1063
01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:54,120
Speaker 1: is the trash one. David I think is the good one.

1064
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:57,760
Speaker 1: He's funny and nice. I hopefully that's that whole James

1065
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 1: is well, Yeah, and all the worries basically because you

1066
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:04,280
Speaker 1: know what, he had to answer questions about the practices

1067
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:07,200
Speaker 1: of his like studio and acting school basically where he

1068
01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:09,280
Speaker 1: was making women do a lot of things they didn't

1069
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:11,320
Speaker 1: want to in the name of like this is an

1070
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:14,920
Speaker 1: acting class. And I remember he was like, you know,

1071
01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:17,520
Speaker 1: like whatever I gotta do, Like I'll do like what

1072
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:20,920
Speaker 1: you know this, I'm not gonna say sorry, but I'm

1073
01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:24,320
Speaker 1: gonna say I'll do whatever whatever else to make amends

1074
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:26,920
Speaker 1: or I'm open to hearing these women and the balls

1075
01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:29,320
Speaker 1: on him to say that that was a class. No,

1076
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:33,880
Speaker 1: you were auditioning women to like force them into pornography

1077
01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:36,840
Speaker 1: for you. Yeah. He had a school, an acting school

1078
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:41,960
Speaker 1: that had a propensity for letting attractive women in and

1079
01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:46,840
Speaker 1: offered a seven and fifty dollar master class for sex

1080
01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:50,120
Speaker 1: scenes right in which they had the video taped themselves

1081
01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:55,240
Speaker 1: simulating sex sign away the rights to the recording. Uh.

1082
01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:58,800
Speaker 1: And in these acting classes, women were routinely pressured to

1083
01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:02,000
Speaker 1: engage in simulated tex acts that went far beyond the

1084
01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:06,040
Speaker 1: standards in the industry. So it wasn't like like there

1085
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:11,160
Speaker 1: there's no claim to what he was doing was uh, educational.

1086
01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:14,200
Speaker 1: It was just you know, him trying to get away

1087
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:17,800
Speaker 1: with whatever he could and making people That's what I

1088
01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:20,120
Speaker 1: was gonna say, and making the women pay for their

1089
01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:23,200
Speaker 1: own humiliation and ship that's so fucked up, right and

1090
01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:26,480
Speaker 1: again again just that abuse of power because that studio

1091
01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 1: set up to be like, look, we make movies, so logically,

1092
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:33,160
Speaker 1: if you really want this, we're gonna sort of leverage

1093
01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 1: that to exploit your desire to succeed by making you

1094
01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:40,200
Speaker 1: self taped these like weird videos that we own. And

1095
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,880
Speaker 1: you know, the lawsuit that they're finding they not only

1096
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:46,240
Speaker 1: just want like the like they're seeking financial damages, but

1097
01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:49,479
Speaker 1: they want the they want those tapes back destroyed because

1098
01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:52,400
Speaker 1: they don't just want this ship out there for their weird,

1099
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:55,840
Speaker 1: like half baked like porn ship they were making. Um.

1100
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 1: And Yeah, when he went on Colbert in January, right

1101
01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,920
Speaker 1: after all of this stuff was coming out, that's he

1102
01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:06,280
Speaker 1: said again his quote unquote apologies said if there's were

1103
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:08,400
Speaker 1: institution to be made, I will make it. I'm here

1104
01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:12,240
Speaker 1: to listen and learn and change my perspective where it's off.

1105
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:19,200
Speaker 1: And then exactly then his lawyer uh claimed that a

1106
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:20,840
Speaker 1: lot of these, like a lot of the people things

1107
01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:23,600
Speaker 1: that were claimed in this lawsuit had already been debunked.

1108
01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:27,240
Speaker 1: What the fund does that even mean? Right? So which

1109
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 1: one is in particular? It's just like the same is

1110
01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:32,400
Speaker 1: like the Trump ship where it's just like, yeah, I

1111
01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:34,080
Speaker 1: mean a lot of this stuff has already been debut

1112
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:37,120
Speaker 1: you know, just like throwing ship out there without like

1113
01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:39,800
Speaker 1: allowing people to follow up and be like, okay, can

1114
01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:42,720
Speaker 1: you talk about specifically what you mean by that? Right?

1115
01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 1: He also did right now that this has any bearing

1116
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:49,320
Speaker 1: on culpability in any of this, But apparently he just

1117
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 1: released a movie, his directorial debut, uh that you know,

1118
01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:56,600
Speaker 1: if you I thought you wanted to go to a

1119
01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:59,800
Speaker 1: film school run by him before, you would see this

1120
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,600
Speaker 1: of you and have some second thoughts because it's being

1121
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:07,160
Speaker 1: dubbed the worst film of two thousand nineteen. It's based

1122
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:09,160
Speaker 1: on a well regarded novel about a guy who comes

1123
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:12,280
Speaker 1: to Hollywood ninety nine and initially gets mistaken for remember

1124
01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 1: the Manson Family. Good call on releasing that right after

1125
01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:20,880
Speaker 1: Once upon a Time in Hollywood, And apparently it's just

1126
01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:25,640
Speaker 1: a real piece of ship, like it's director sound how

1127
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:29,400
Speaker 1: like if he what else he has in like development

1128
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:32,360
Speaker 1: or like production where they're people are still like yeah, yeah,

1129
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:35,480
Speaker 1: like we're still people are obviously still fucking with him. Yea.

1130
01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:40,360
Speaker 1: His roast wasn't even that long ago. His Comedy Central roast,

1131
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:47,080
Speaker 1: like we have really normalized, Oh in the Deuce for

1132
01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:51,400
Speaker 1: guy's in that show? Oh yeah, um yeah, it's it'll

1133
01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:53,800
Speaker 1: be why the fund is he in the Deuce? That's

1134
01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:56,640
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And that's a show about porn, right,

1135
01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:59,080
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, dude, you're just telling on yourself

1136
01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:02,360
Speaker 1: like Louis style. And he's playing Twins, which is such

1137
01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:08,000
Speaker 1: an actorly indulgence. Oh man, when Army Hammer did it though,

1138
01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:13,160
Speaker 1: people loved it in the Facebook network, but as the

1139
01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:20,000

1148
01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 1: Don't call it a film. Yeah, I saw that ship

Speaker 1: mission to kill an international terrorist escaping from his island exile.

1154
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,720
Speaker 1: He teams up with the flamboyant arms dealer and sets

1155
01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:12,960
Speaker 1: out to find the terrorists and rescue the agent's wife

1156

1198
01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:36,960
Speaker 1: to invite activist Greta Tuneberg for dinner, and then she says,

1199
01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:39,160
Speaker 1: I actually would love for Greta to look him in
