This motherfucker dude. 0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:58.120 I don't don't share. 0:09:58.160 --> 0:10:00.680 It shouldn't matter, but I I'm just saying, when I 0:10:00.679 --> 0:10:03.480 try to cross the borders getting out of the country, 0:10:03.559 --> 0:10:05.920 they I get flagged. 0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:09.520 Govin this dude disappointed a kid, a guy that allegedly 0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:13.719 like slept with a minor as what defense secretary? I mean, 0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:15.280 come on, bro, No, it's a little weird. 0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:18.480 Well just not start. The Defense secretary is some guy 0:10:18.520 --> 0:10:22.920 you've seen that that sells some products like online and 0:10:22.960 --> 0:10:25.480 not not the pillow guy, but this this guy from 0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:29.160 Fox News who's literally just a morning Fox News guy. 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:32.080 So he kind of looks the part. He's got some 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:36.400 good looking tattoos, I guess. And uh, and so Trump said, Hey, 0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:41.000 that's my Defense secretary to lead the world's most fierce 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:45.960 and proud military. So he's a guy you got Gates 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:50.040 to your point, who resigned from Congress before the Ethics 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:54.040 Committee report can come out because reports don't come out 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:56.920 for ex congressman, and it was about to come out 0:10:57.200 --> 0:10:59.960 on the allegations that you just suggested as a really 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:01.240 it's to underage girls. 0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:05.920 And no, I just got reggae shit, all that weird 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:07.480 ass shit. I ain't for all that. 0:11:07.600 --> 0:11:12.160 Man, these are allegations. There was an independent a review 0:11:12.640 --> 0:11:17.200 and the Speaker of the House, Johnson, saying, uh, as 0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:20.679 you know, a man of total objectivity and faith, uh 0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:24.880 and devotion to you know, decency and and the principles 0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:28.120 and the Foundations and the Ten Commandments, said we're not 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:30.080 going to allow that ethics port to be public. 0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:32.800 So he reformed something, is what you're talking about. 0:11:33.160 --> 0:11:36.200 No I did well. I'm saying he preaches a lot, 0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:38.360 but he sure as hell doesn't seem to be practicing 0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:41.560 here as it relates to trying to hide some of 0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:43.800 the facts of an ethics report, there's nothing to hide. 0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:46.480 He should release the ethics report. He's not doing it. 0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:48.439 So but you got all that, and then you got 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:50.679 the guy who you know believes in a lot of 0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:53.760 conspiracy theories across the spectrum of issues in RFK juniors 0:11:54.400 --> 0:11:57.520 being proposed to HHS secretary. You got Christy nom the 0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:00.960 South Dakota governor to be head of Old Man Security. 0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:03.360 Don't even get me started there. It's a hell of 0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:05.200 hell of a group. So you talked to me about 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:08.719 Bennett and Sherman. I'm feeling pretty good about Oakland right now. 0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:10.800 That's why I was saying that. Sound like I need 0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:12.959 to say, you know, the mayorshit is cool, but I 0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:15.040 probably need to go to the White House and go 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:16.040 get a job up there. 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:18.080 Hey, Gavin, since Trump hasn't called you back, you leve 0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:20.839 posted note saying hey, hey Donald or President, call me 0:12:20.880 --> 0:12:22.640 when you get in or on the chairish like. 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:27.880 That, just so he came in. It was a hell 0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:31.360 of I will say, just spending time with Biden, comparing 0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:35.840 contrasting our notes in terms of how he felt about 0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:38.559 the election, all this stuff I can't share, God, I 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:39.320 wish I could share. 0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:41.040 Well, you have a safe space here, Gavin. This is 0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:41.760 a circle of trust. 0:12:41.880 --> 0:12:44.559 Yeah, no, I trust me. I'm so tempted. But it 0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:48.520 was a hell of a thing to be able to 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:51.880 spend time with him in an honest, and it put 0:12:51.920 --> 0:12:56.959 it this way, unfiltered, honest discussion about not just what's happened, 0:12:56.960 --> 0:12:58.720 but what he needs to do in the next seventy 0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:01.120 days and what we need to do in California the 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:04.160 next seventy days to lock things down before Trump gets 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:07.400 into office. Because this stuff got very very real, very 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:08.040 very quickly. 0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:11.320 Did you ever really tell Biden, hey, hey, Joe president, 0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:13.959 you unbelievable career, just like when you're done, just go 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:15.920 you moved to an island somewhere, or go to a 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:18.720 fishing village in Portugal. Anything's like that. You think he 0:13:18.720 --> 0:13:20.520 shuts it down, he just disappears or what. 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:24.320 Not a chance? He's hardwired for for public service, been 0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:27.160 at it for half a century and uh and it's 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:28.560 it's isn't his blood. 0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:31.200 About to say that? Can't just leave? He got hell 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:33.920 of secrets and ship they need to know where out 0:13:33.960 --> 0:13:36.480 all the time. They had to activate that nigga like 0:13:36.520 --> 0:13:39.640 the KGB is some say that secret rad and he 0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:43.320 started turning to a roboty you know what I mean? 0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:44.840 Hardly that. 0:13:45.200 --> 0:13:47.640 Yeah, they bring his ass back when he needed. 0:13:47.480 --> 0:13:49.640 Well, Gavin, there was there was a by the way, 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:52.000 there was a uh there was something in the media 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:54.240 that someone saw you getting on the plane carrying your 0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:56.439 own back, sitting in the middle seat and economy.

I had, like 0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:13.360 a you know, rod twenty nine f or so. 0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:13.599 It was. 0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:14.840 Anybody yelled you on the plane. 0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:18.160 It was only one person, so it was a great day. 0:14:18.160 --> 0:14:18.760 It was amazing. 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:22.240 Only one It's fabulous, literally yell.

Don't back 0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:10.040 me to corner more, Shawn. You know that I'm a fighter, the. 0:15:10.160 --> 0:15:12.760 Young Baker fighter in the corner. They come off swinging. 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:15.360 I love this so people. One of the things we're doing, 0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:16.640 which I think is great, and it's great to be 0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:18.880 able to check in on the audience and folks listening. 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:22.440 We were able to get a bunch of of emails, 0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:25.360 folks that wanted to ask some questions. We solicited that 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:27.640 last week and Doug, you got it. I think you 0:15:27.720 --> 0:15:28.720 got the handful of them. 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:31.040 I am gonna be Ernie Johnson. I got Shocked to 0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:33.120 my left, I got Barkley to my right. I will 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:37.000 be the moderator Govin Okay. I'm not sure who was 0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:40.000 Shock or who was Barkley. But here here's the uh. 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:45.320 Here's the first question I got from uh uh Tom Okay. Uh. 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:48.680 I can't vote yet, but as a Democrat, I've noticed 0:15:48.680 --> 0:15:51.840 that my peers male athletes are drifting towards Trump views 0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:55.000 at school boys my age. Here a lot about empowering girls, 0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:57.560 but not much about boys. It seems like Trump is 0:15:57.600 --> 0:16:01.040 filling a vacuum. His emphasis on string winning and dominance 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:03.240 is appealing to boys my age and young men in college. 0:16:03.600 --> 0:16:06.680 What can we do to reverse this trend? I think 0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:07.640 that's for you, Gavin. 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:14.400 No, No, Marshawn, I want to know, because No, that's 0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:19.080 anything that comes through with Trump that is meant for you, 0:16:19.160 --> 0:16:22.120 because we kind of hot with you too, because you 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:24.720 didn't go and run for president. No. No, but it's 0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:27.520 it's by the way, the question is fran beautifully and 0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:30.000 it's deeply accurate. And we talked, I think a little 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:31.520 bit last week right on the pole. We talked a 0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:33.320 little bit about this sort of man o sphere. We 0:16:33.320 --> 0:16:37.120 talked about all these bro plot podcasts and some I 0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:40.280 think I read some article that suggested, aren't we one 0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:44.360 of those bro podcasts ourselves? But there there is something 0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:47.560 about you know, he talks about power and dominance and aggression. 0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:50.680 Uh And and for a lot of young kids, they're 0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:53.560 they're sort of they're they're feeling on more men, in 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:57.000 particular young boys a sense lack of a sense of 0:16:57.040 --> 0:17:00.720 meaning and purpose and mission, and so that strength, that 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:03.560 sort of masculinity that is exuded by a lot of 0:17:03.600 --> 0:17:07.280 these podcasters and in that quote unquote manosphere connects to people. 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:09.560 And you've seen this crisis of belonging. It's been a 0:17:09.560 --> 0:17:11.760 trend line for the last few decades as it relates 0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:14.439 to what's happening with men all across this country. And 0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:17.320 you've seen that a graduation rates, suicide rates. You're seeing 0:17:17.320 --> 0:17:20.600 it in a deaths of despair, people that are overdosing 0:17:20.680 --> 0:17:25.240 drug use, alcohol use, the disproportion you're impacting men and boys. 0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:28.080 So it is a legitimate crisis in the country. And 0:17:28.840 --> 0:17:31.720 the question is what's the prescription to address it. Is 0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:34.920 it that what some perceive is the toxicity of Trump 0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:39.240 others would disagree, or is it you know, trying to 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:43.080 sort of align with what Trump may be selling, which 0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:45.000 clearly worked in this election. 0:17:45.359 --> 0:17:47.159 I'm not sure if you answered that question, Gavin, but 0:17:47.240 --> 0:17:49.560 I appreciate the you. 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:51.560 Said a whole bunch of words.
