It's a real ye, the Paris Commune, if 68 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:36,559 Speaker 1: you will. A lot of three gorgeous kind thinking comes 69 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 1: out of there.

Obviously we're 74 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: gonna get to know you even better, Blair, but let's 75 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: talk about, you know, just a quick preview what we're 76 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 1: gonna divulge or discuss today. First up, a little bit 77 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: of good news because big oil, the fossil fuel earth fuckers, 78 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 1: they're starting to take else kind of and I mean 79 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: it feels insignificant, but when you actually think about it, like, oh, 80 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: this is actually significant. So we'll have a little bit 81 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,559 Speaker 1: of good news on that front. Then we're gonna talk about, 82 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: you know, the vaccine incentives seem to be working, the 83 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 1: vac Similian thing in Ohio. They had their first winner. 84 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: I guess these incentives are working to the point where 85 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: now Republicans are introducing bills to stop vaccine incentives because 86 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: if they're evil. Um okay uh. And then we'll talk 87 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 1: a little bit about a new development and Instagram likes 88 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: and sort of what came out of the research from 89 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: Instagram saying like do we need likes? Do people need likes? 90 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: Is it healthy? Is it unhealthy? So we'll get into 91 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: that and also just talk about, you know, just a 92 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: little bit of the origins of Cruella Deville, which I 93 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: did not really understand or know about. Our fabulous writer 94 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: jam has given us a piece of that and says, 95 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 1: you know what, yeah, you know, they were doing Cruella 96 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: pretty dirty, So you know, maybe this movie can be 97 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: a good chance to create a human being who isn't 98 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: just a depiction of a woman in a car that's dangerous. 99 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 1: I've been saying for years I should be allowed to 100 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: kill dogs, and it's not to say that I shouldn't 101 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: be doing that. Okay, Okay, we're going to get into that. 102 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: But first Blair hit us with something from your search 103 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: history that you know reveals a little bit about you. Okay, 104 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: So I clicked up my Google search and the first 105 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: things that came up were black, tormaline, crystal, and then 106 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: the second was what has post Malone been up too lately? 107 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 1: What's the answer to that question? I don't know. Like 108 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: what I love about post Malone is that he's constantly 109 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: just like trying new things. You know, He's very unbound 110 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: by any sort of convention or genre, Like you know, 111 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: he did that the whole Nirvana thing, and he's always 112 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: in crocs or like weird brand partnerships. He just beats 113 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: to his own drum. And I love that about him. 114 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 1: Do you. He's a big Dallas cow Boys fan too, 115 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: Like that's a huge part of his brand. He's always 116 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: I feel like the lasting I saw him in was 117 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: like the most ridiculous Dallas Cowboys suit. Yeah. What I 118 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: love about him is he's just like a melting pot 119 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: of like so many things that you would never know 120 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: could go together right, right, he contains multitudes with like 121 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: all the brand collaborations. I feel like, like Jamie, that's 122 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: even something you I could see you be like, yo, 123 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: Jamie's got this.

It's not a product issue. I've 131 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: never gotten sick what they It's a trust barrier, theft 132 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: to overcome.

It's 144 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: a solid movie star investment to make. It's like when 145 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: Mickey Rooney invested in Circular Hot Dogs once and oh 146 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: that's yeah. He tried to make Circle Hot Talks happening. 147 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 1: He also tried to make Soda for Dogs happen. Hold 148 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 1: on circu like like you take off Frank and just 149 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 1: make it like a halo like Hamburger, like Hamburger and 150 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 1: by you kind of it's kind of like it's like 151 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: a real these skinny meat doughnut, is how I would 152 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: describe what he was trying to do. It was like 153 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: in the eighties and he was just like, what if 154 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: so you can put it on a Hamburger bun? I 155 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: think was the idea. The middle part is all like, 156 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 1: ain't nothing in the middle empty? It didn't. The business 157 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: didn't work, and Soda for Dogs. Soda for Dogs was 158 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: another failed business venture of Mickey Rooney's. I forget why 159 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: I know this, but he had a lot of fun 160 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: businesses that that just totally ate. Ship soda for dogs 161 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: sounds like it could be a good idea, But I 162 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: did just say that it should be legal for me 163 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: to kill dogs, but dogs for years and you're merely 164 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 1: just posing a question to what it means to be 165 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,599 Speaker 1: able to or not able to do something. But we 166 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: all are dog lovers here, right, I just want to 167 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: make sure we're on the same page. Oh yeah, okay, 168 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,719 Speaker 1: So have you ever thought like, oh, I want my 169 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 1: dog to know this because that this dog soda things 170 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,839 Speaker 1: sounds good thing where you're like you think you know 171 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: what a dog wants, and you're like, dogs, man, they 172 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: want the soda, and I feel like they need a dog. 173 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: I've never wanted to I've wanted to give people things 174 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: to sunny, but soda is not one of the things. 175 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: I felt like sad that dogs can't have chocolate. It's 176 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: like I have felt like actual sadness about that before, 177 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: like just walking around, like on the street and be like, damn, 178 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,719 Speaker 1: they can really never have that, you know? But I 179 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: guess we don't. We are ego like mine thinks we 180 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: know what's best, but really we have to give these 181 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 1: dogs the dignity of their own experience, fantastic, Thank you 182 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: so much the insight. Yeah, that because chocolate is even 183 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 1: like one of those things when people like I don't 184 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: like chocolate, I'm like, really like you dislike I guess 185 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: if you're not saying it's your favorite thing. When people like, oh, 186 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: I don't, I don't like it. I don't like it, 187 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: I feel my heart. It feels like when people say like, 188 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: I don't really like me music, and it's like, even, like, 189 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: what are you talking about any music? That makes no sense? 190 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: That gang? I know we have a broad coalition of listeners. 191 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 1: If you are one of these people who says I 192 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: don't really like music, can you explain what that means 193 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: to me? Like you do, You're like, please turn that off. 194 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,599 Speaker 1: I don't like it because I know some people just 195 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 1: ambivalent towards music. They're like, I don't feel like, don't 196 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: keep up with stuff or whatever. But like different though, 197 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: don't you think? Yeah? I think honestly those people that 198 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: say they just don't like music as like a whole. 199 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 1: When there's i mean, maybe one million different types of 200 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 1: strains in genres, it's really sort of a lack of 201 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: vulnerability issue. In my opinion, they're unwilling to open up 202 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: to something that could really deeply move them. Yeah, they 203 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: maybe haven't heard post malone yet. I agree with you. Yeah, 204 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: oh man, a good idea. Okay, so let's move on, Blair. 205 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: What's something that you think is overrated? Okay, overrated? I'll 206 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: the gate. I'm gonna have to go us and tell 207 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: you guys. I have a really visceral reaction to when 208 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: people use the word epic, probably because I am from 209 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: Orange County and so like for me, it is when 210 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: you like, sort of like when you drank too much 211 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: tequila when I in high school, so you can now 212 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: never have Jose Querbo again. But anyways, Yeah, the word 213 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: epic just makes me sort of shiver, quiver in my bones, run, 214 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: it runs a little chill down my spine. You know, wow, 215 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: what like is there any is it in that sense? 216 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 1: You go, oh, it was fucking epic? Yeah. I reject 217 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 1: the the ironic reclaiming of epic two. I have no 218 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: interest in the reclaiming of epic and random in the year. 219 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: How are you seeing the use of epic Like, I'm 220 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: I'm more narrow in my experience with that word, and 221 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: it's always been like bro vernacular. Yeah, you know what 222 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: it gives off a strong um senior copywriter, like very 223 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: confident um guy who works at like a marketing agency vibe, 224 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: you know, and he's like, yeah, I was, we are 225 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: an epic weekend like out on the water and it 226 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: was epic anyway, Blair, thanks for covering for me and 227 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: working all weekend, man, because honestly, if you saw the picks, dude, 228 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 1: Rod fucking did a back flip off his sea du 229 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: and landed that ship. Dude, it was fucking e p 230 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 1: I C. It's like a word used to describe in 231 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: a weekend where boys get really hurt, like yeah, got injured. Yeah, 232 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: there's nothing, there's probably crimes committed. When someone saying it 233 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,959 Speaker 1: was epic, I must acknowledge like the general hypocrisy of me, 234 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: you know, having a version to that word when that 235 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: sort of is the whole um vibe in which I talk. 236 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: But you know, the word itself, I I really don't 237 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: like that much. Yeah, but your your energy transcends what 238 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: we could ever, you know, pin to some kind of 239 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: word or way of speaking, So I wouldn't I wouldn't 240 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 1: worry about that. Thank you so much. Yeah, that's true. 241 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: It's true. That's we only have transcendent guests on here. 242 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: That's okay. And finally, Blair, what is something that you 243 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: think is underrated? Okay, guys, I just got to be 244 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: straight up with you. Chip clips are incredible. Okay.

Chip Clips 248 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: are the silent, subtle assassin of adding overwhelming value while 249 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: asking for little to no recognition. Chip clicks are the 250 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: Scott be pipping how old kitchen? Where? Yes? Yes, cereal? 251 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: That's totally is it?

Yeah, that I've never I've never sealed 253 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: the cereal outside of like the box. That's brilliant. One 254 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: day I just was walking by in the store and 255 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: it was like a little thing sticking out in the aisle, 256 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: you know, and I just grabbed like a whole like 257 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: a um, it had like a whole bunch of them 258 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: on one thing. And from that day on the amount 259 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: of just my life improved skyrocketed. And it's like I'm 260 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: putting those chip clips on on frozen disks and chips 261 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: and cereal, and it's just incredible. It really is, Like 262 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: which is it the ones that you it's like the 263 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: straight bar so it's like a hairclip one, or the 264 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: one that's more like a binder clip, because you know, 265 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: there's there's different chip bag clipping technique, different one. I 266 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: think if the second one is kind of like elegant 267 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: where I was like, oh, this is it's that kind 268 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: of it's a binder click. Yeah, mine is actually not 269 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: like a binder one. It's more um fastened like a clothespin, 270 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: but just um really sleek plastic and wow it works 271 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: really good. Yeah. I remember as a kid, I think 272 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: because the frequency at which I would eat cereal, it 273 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: wasn't really time for it to get stale, you know, 274 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: because like it would probably be like a boxing cereal 275 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: probably be done within a week or so. And then 276 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: I remember like going to kids houses and like you know, 277 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: like their parents had like the ship in like the tupperware, 278 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: and like they would pour it out of like a 279 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: and I would always be like, you don't even know 280 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: what you know what the box on the other fuck 281 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: is stupid. And then I'm like, yeah, that ship is 282 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: way fresher. How am I supposed to know what that 283 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: is if there's not a cartoon. I know, but that 284 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: just shows you by the child brain at the time. Like, man, 285 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: it's like cocoa crisp. I can't I can't tell about 286 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: the robbers on it. I like the taste of stale food, 287 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: and so sometimes I'll like not clip the chips, and 288 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: then it creates how alsehold issues because Isaac will be like, 289 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: you're a little mouse, like why are you doing this? 290 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: Why are the chips like soft? But I kind of 291 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: like when the chips are soft, wow, so you like 292 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: you're not You're down with a little bit of stale chip. 293 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: I love.

Yeah, much week for RuPaul and 328 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: the Oh my god, my favorite wait is Ruler Sorry 329 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: and his husband are notorious frackers. I think that came 330 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 1: out at like the beginning of the pandemic, where like 331 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: everyone found out that RuPaul was fracking, but then we 332 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: kind of had bigger fish to fry. But RuPaul notorious practice. 333 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 1: March one is when they came out, and then rumors, 334 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: what's the timeline of the ridiculous rumors came out in August? 335 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: Oh wait, no, no, that's after the fact. Man, I'm 336 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 1: so bad with numbers right now. I still think it's 337 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: sometimes okay, but yes, in this instance, just let's just 338 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: check in with Exxon Mobile. Okay, heard of them? Probably 339 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 1: they're one of the worst polluters on the planet. An 340 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 1: epic polluteric that's where you know that shareholders meeting is 341 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: just a few dudes who are you know, waiting to 342 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: just say how epic the fucking the profits are. But 343 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 1: from the end on annual fishing trip, I fucking love 344 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: that weekend, favorite week in the year, dude, So sick, dude, 345 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: we through like spent plutonium rods into this lake to 346 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 1: see what it would do the fish and it was 347 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 1: a boil into the ocean used as a fucking slipping slide, 348 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 1: my dude. So at X on Mobile, like a group 349 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: of rogue shareholders were able to install two independent directors 350 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 1: to their board of directors. Like this was a math 351 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: sive campaign because for the whole time, a lot of 352 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: these shareholders they're like, uh, you know, just we own 353 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,719 Speaker 1: a lot of stock in this company, and just as 354 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 1: a matter of a business practice, we think ignoring climate 355 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 1: change is a terrible strategy because there's like things like 356 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: people's retirement and pension funds wrapped up in it. Like 357 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,640 Speaker 1: they're trying to be like response, like, if we're gonna 358 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: be putting money in this, it has to last. So 359 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: there was this an entire campaign too, essentially get like 360 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: when these elections were happening, get this massive ground Sowil 361 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: of support, but behind two of these new directors on 362 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: their twelve person board, and this is like again it 363 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: sounds like, okay, well it's fucking two verse ten. But 364 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: this is the first time there's ever been like people 365 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: who are there to be like, I completely disagree with 366 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 1: everything you're saying, and I'm also on this board like 367 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: it was all it was either done you know, light 368 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: touch or whatever, but never to this extent. So you know, 369 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: a bit of discomfort for them. That's I mean, that's 370 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 1: generally positive. It's so I mean, this is also fucking 371 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: bleak in general, where they're like, wait a second, we 372 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 1: need the earth to last a little longer. We're going 373 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 1: to continue to profit off the earth, so I guess 374 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: we can't blow everything up. So like I I mean, 375 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: I guess that this was going to have to happen eventually, 376 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: but I don't know. This is the other ridiculous thing. 377 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: The amount of money spent before this these votes were tabulated. 378 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: It was like a full on, like millions of dollars 379 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: were spent just to change the makeup of the Border 380 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: directors to get two people who were less inclined to 381 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: shoot on the earth for more money, they're more money. Yeah, 382 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 1: it's like they'll they'll make that money back in seconds, 383 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 1: to the point where like ex On Mobile, they declared 384 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: a recess in the middle of like the like the 385 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: meeting because they were like a funk, man, I don't 386 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: know if we got like enough votes for the people 387 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: we want, and they were trying to like stop the 388 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: vote again. And I think that's as signed to show 389 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: how fucked up in ghoulish all of this stuff is 390 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 1: like the inner workings that it even costs millions to 391 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: sway people to make more millions by abandoning a practice 392 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 1: that is like just extracting minerals from the earth that 393 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: are finite rather than you know what about unlimited seem 394 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: like a good business decision. I don't know. I mean 395 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: my assumption. I don't know anything about the the board 396 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: of Exile Mobile, but my assumption is they're all old 397 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: as ship and don't care what happens in twenty years 398 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: because they will have died. Yeah, I wonder, yeah the 399 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 1: age makeup what what that looks like. And then Chevron 400 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: they also had something, they had a little bit of 401 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: h us that shareholders smacked their little greedy hands back 402 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 1: cast their support to get behind the proposal asking Chevron 403 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: to cut its greenhouse gas emissions. They're like, look, I 404 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: don't know, like whatever you said is happening, Like it's 405 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 1: not good enough for us, and like, well we could 406 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 1: do this, and and we said we're doing this, and 407 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: they're like, no, no, you've you've been You've been just 408 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: dragging your feet too long. So here it is, please 409 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: do this from all the way down from your operations 410 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: to supply chains. This has to come down significantly. So again, 411 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: I don't know, it seems like people, I guess the greedy, 412 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 1: you know, the people who are even have these shares 413 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 1: and are willing to do this. They're even realizing there, 414 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: I guess money is at risk. So shout out to 415 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 1: oil companies in the eleventh hour realizing the Earth needs 416 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: to exist to make money on Earth. Really incredible work, 417 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: you guys. I mean, what do you think. There's there's 418 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 1: so many things, and you read about climate change, like 419 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: it just become so disheartening because like the last thing 420 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: I read was like satellites have been grossly underestimating the 421 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: heating of the Earth.

And 491 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: sometimes I have that thought in my head where it's like, oh, 492 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: like that like comedians who are like Earnest, Oh my god, 493 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: And then I'm like, fuck you. I give you, guys, 494 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: so many jokes and stuff. I can be sincere and 495 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: my real, true sensitive soul whenever I want. But you're 496 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: reminding me that I'm not being votable. Yeah, now I 497 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: feel guilty. Their epic fail of a post your Instagram 498 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: is is such good vibes player. That's so sweet. Thank you. 499 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 1: Oh God, I would say to all people, you know, 500 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: we're again. We're facing omni crises all over in many 501 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: different turns. Um Unfortunately, like apathy around climate change is 502 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 1: the is the thing that is probably the biggest problem. 503 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: But at the same level, it's like I think it's 504 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: about figuring out how I think you know whether it's 505 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: more people can't just symbolically do shit anymore, and we 506 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: need like real answers, real regulation. And as much as 507 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 1: they want to be like whoa or your fucking lightbulbs twisty, 508 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, your straw's paper, I'm like, hey, asshole, I 509 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: don't generate the fucking power. Oh my god. When that 510 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: like the straw thing came out, it was hard for 511 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: me to accept because I love a straw. But also 512 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 1: I was just like, okay, great the straws, but why 513 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: aren't we getting rid of dodge rams? You know he 514 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: first since first straws over here because someone drives past you. 515 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: When the hummer is like, excuse me that straw is 516 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: it slams the brakes hold on. Yeah. It's like I 517 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: I am concerned about the turtles and it's like good, 518 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: I want their turtles to live. But like we do 519 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: also have to reckon with humankind as well. Um well, 520 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: speaking of reckoning with humankind, I just want to talk 521 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: about vaccine incentives. It's been you know, just all the rage. 522 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: You know, we know in Ohio they're doing vax Similion 523 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: where you know a few people could If you're vaccinated, 524 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:14,479 Speaker 1: you are eligible to win a huge million dollar cash prize, 525 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: and last week they picked their first winner and it 526 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: was twenty two year old Abbe Bulginski from Cincinnati, who 527 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: when two year old, got a million dollars. She was 528 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: on her way to buy a used car when she 529 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: got the call from the governor to be like, hey 530 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: you want It's like, are you fucking what is this joke? Dude, 531 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: I gotta go buy a used car. And they're like, no, no, no, seriously, seriously, 532 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: you know that you won the vax Similian thing. She 533 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: says she doesn't know how she plans to spend the money, 534 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: but some will be donated and some will go to 535 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: the new car she's been wanting, and the rest will 536 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 1: probably be invested. So god, what a levelheaded, incredible young woman. 537 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: I was kind of like, yeah, what a sensible what 538 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: a sensible gal? Or she knows how to just say 539 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,959 Speaker 1: the right things. She's like, yeah, donated to my baller 540 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 1: fund and then the wrest will go to my new 541 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 1: asthma sick as Mercedes. I'm gonna pull up in. But yeah, 542 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: she won, and now many other states have realized, yes, 543 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: the thing that America does in American culture, like we 544 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: incentivize shit to get people to do things. That's like 545 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: how everything's built. Really, what do I get? Yeah? What 546 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: do I get? So because of that, California is gonna 547 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: be doing something where they're we've got like over a 548 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen million for certain incentives. I don't know 549 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 1: what that's going to turn out to be. There's the 550 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: governor of West Virginia. He did a thing with like 551 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 1: his little dog, who's like this bulldog, and he's like, 552 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: look at, look at little baby dog. How are you 553 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: gonna say no to my dog? And it's just like this, 554 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: look at And they're doing things they know how to incentivice, 555 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: ship over their cash prizes, college scholarships, intend pickup trucks. Okay, 556 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: so everybody's got their version. Now. I feel like that's 557 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: I mean, there's a bleak way of looking at it. 558 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: But it's also like, I don't know, I mean, we 559 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 1: we should have been paid to fucking stay home last year. 560 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of the reason that people 561 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: are so like would would be down to get vaccinated 562 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 1: for a chance at a million dollars is because of 563 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: all these other failures. So I don't know, I'm like, yeah, sure, 564 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: like whatever vaccine lottery, let's go do what you gotta. 565 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: I mean, look as the numbers stall out and they're like, 566 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: there's you know, who knows what else is going to 567 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: come around the bend in terms of variances and things 568 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: like that, that like, we want to be able to 569 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: get some semblance of normalcy back. Obviously never the same, 570 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: but sometimes like well, no one's been incentivized to deal 571 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: with the pandemic for well, like by the government at least, 572 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly, because if everything was hey, we 573 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: get it. We had to shut businesses down. Therefore, we're 574 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 1: stopping your bills because how the funk could you pay 575 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: them if you're not working. We're not animals or months. 576 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: Oh wait, no we are. So they're gonna have to 577 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: figure it out. You're gonna face a huge bill in 578 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 1: about two years. Good fucking luck. I love the idea 579 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: of like one of these like quing on people that's 580 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: like no, not no, what you're not getting the back 581 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 1: seeing and then he's like, wait a minute, pickup truck. Okay, 582 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 1: cap me in, I'm getting me a new truck. Forget 583 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 1: everything I said, Because for a lot of people it's 584 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 1: just like a take that you're on the side of 585 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 1: or you're just sort of uninformed. So some people might 586 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: feel like, at the end of the day, you're like 587 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: my weird like own the lips ideology isn't as great 588 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: as my passion for a dodge ram. Yeah, own the lips. 589 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: But give me these truck nuts. Yeah, oh god, wait 590 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 1: truck nuts. If you get vaccinated, hold on, Okay, I'll 591 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: take the prick shot. But I think you know, it 592 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: all depends because some people they want money, some people 593 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: want trucks, some people want hugs. But at the end 594 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: of the day, what we do know is the anti 595 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: vax rout is very angry about this because the legislators 596 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: over there have introduced a fucking bill that is like, 597 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 1: dick there, you can't make anyone get a vaccine. You 598 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 1: can't even say the word vaccine. You can't even like 599 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: ask someone to get one. Like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa? 600 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: What is this? So let me just read the description 601 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: the legislation with band vaccine requirements on customers, employees, or 602 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 1: students from business as, hospitals, and nursing homes, k through 603 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: twelve schools, colleges, daycares, or others. It would also prevent governments, insurers, 604 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: or businesses from offering incentives for people to get vaccinated, 605 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 1: or even requesting that people get vaccinated. Under the bill, 606 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: of small business owned by asthmatics or cancer survivors, both 607 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: of whom are at higher risk of serious COVID nineteen complications, 608 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 1: would have no legal right to require even requests that 609 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 1: employees or customers who come inside be vaccinated. You know, 610 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 1: people love to if you have a business, aren't thought 611 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 1: you can tell everybody? You could do what you please. 612 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 1: But I guess this is very I guess logic because 613 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: sometimes you hear anti vacs people say, well, it's about 614 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: personal choice too, but like to then completely vilify the 615 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: vaccine that isn't gonna work, That's not that's I don't 616 00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,359 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not sure what that outcome you're looking 617 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 1: for is, aside from just being like stop it. People 618 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:06,359 Speaker 1: are agreeing with this. That logic is so interesting though, 619 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: and like I do understand that it's I I know, 620 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: I've heard a lot of people say that it's about 621 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,800 Speaker 1: the idea of being forced in the loss of freedom, 622 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 1: But I mean, like, what about like all of those 623 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 1: vaccines that we all had to get to go to 624 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 1: school when we were three or four, Like what about 625 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,800 Speaker 1: those you know, Well, I never had them and I 626 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: never take flu shots and I never get sick. So 627 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: because that's the other ideology too, which is main character syndrome, 628 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 1: where you think every single person has the same immune 629 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,479 Speaker 1: system you do. And maybe because you've not met people 630 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: who've had complications. We've had guests on this show who 631 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: have dealt with COVID complications in the past, like you know, candidly, 632 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 1: and we're like, oh God, that's awful. It's not the 633 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 1: same for anyone, and to have that like singular mindset 634 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 1: is so awful. Meanwhile, there are millions of people dying 635 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: all over the world. And if you look at even 636 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: just generally, right, I think as Americans, people don't realize 637 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 1: the benefit of the decades of your genetics being like 638 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,320 Speaker 1: having an American infrastructure behind it, what that does for 639 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,399 Speaker 1: your health outcomes over the years, because it's very clear 640 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 1: in America the people who don't have easy access to healthcare, 641 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: especially people of color, their health outcomes are much different 642 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: than people who have grown up generationally you know, middle 643 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 1: class or just in just out of poverty. Um. And 644 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 1: to think that that would apply to other places is 645 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 1: like totally absurd and takes for granted, like the process 646 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 1: to which you even become something here. Yeah. And on 647 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,839 Speaker 1: top of that, like the dissonance of people saying like, oh, 648 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: well I didn't get vaccinated and I never got like 649 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 1: the momps, And it's like, well, yeah, because everyone around 650 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 1: you got fucking vaccinated, Like what are you talking about? 651 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: What I thought we had to get those like for school, 652 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:52,799 Speaker 1: like vaccines. Yeah. And there's a thing that always makes 653 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: me cry. And I remember Dr Carter. He would always 654 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 1: give me a lollipop that he would I remember this 655 00:37:58,040 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: as a kid. He would take the thing off for 656 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: me and then give it to me, and I was like, 657 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 1: I wanted to eat this at home, and now you 658 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: give me an unwrapped lollipop And what a loss of 659 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 1: your freedoms? Yeah, and that's why I'm anti VAXX. Yeah. 660 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: I just the only reason I got vaccinated so I 661 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,279 Speaker 1: can go to the Laker game philosophically though, you know, 662 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: y'all know where I stand and for the free truck nuts. Okay, 663 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back 664 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 1: to talk a little bit more about Cruella and Instagram Okay, 665 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 1: let's uh, we're back. Sorry. I didn't mean to just 666 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: say okay, we are back, just like okay, sorry, I'm sorry, 667 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Sorry for apological the apology apology accepted, sorry 668 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 1: for saying sorry. So you know, in I don't know 669 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 1: if everyone remembers. Remember, there's like the discussion of like, 670 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: does should Instagram have likes? Any likes? Are likes poison? 671 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 1: Are they poisoning everyone's minds? And like, what are we 672 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 1: gonna do about it? Well, for the last two years, 673 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 1: Instagram has been doing, I guess a lot of research 674 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 1: and testing to figure out like what the best outcome is. 675 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 1: And it's a little anticlimactic. This is from a post 676 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: that they just put out. It says, quote, what we 677 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: heard from people and experts was that not seeing light 678 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 1: counts was beneficial for some and annoying to others, particularly 679 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 1: because people use the light counts to get a sense 680 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,839 Speaker 1: of what's trending or popular. So we're going to give 681 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 1: you the choice, meaning as a user, if you for you, 682 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 1: it's better to be like yo, I don't give a 683 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: funk and I don't Actually I'll be more free if 684 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: I can just post and not be tethered to like 685 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 1: this idea of a numerical like count based on what 686 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,280 Speaker 1: I've submitted to the earth from my own brain and soul. 687 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 1: You can turn the light counts off, and then for 688 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: others if you if you just have to know and 689 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: you've got to know what's popular, you can keep them on. 690 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 1: But it turns out like when this is announced, it 691 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,919 Speaker 1: was super polarizing, like from people really being like talk 692 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, I thought I think I would. I 693 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 1: will probably turn it off. I mean I haven't posted 694 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 1: to my grid in like a year or something, but 695 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: I probably would do that because I've always just had 696 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 1: I think my relationship social media is like morphed in 697 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 1: a weird way over time where I'm like, let's like, 698 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: I feel like we've been hearing rumors about the likes 699 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 1: disappearing for the past five years. I've never seen it happen, 700 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:28,400 Speaker 1: or I don't know if it's something that's still coming, 701 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 1: this mythological thing that would happen. I have now adopted, 702 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 1: probably in my geriatric age, the idea, the very very 703 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 1: clear idea that Instagram and social media is so bad 704 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 1: for our mental health and our hearts and our souls 705 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:51,240 Speaker 1: and you know, after watching that movie The Social Dilemma 706 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 1: that everyonet you know talks about the idea of like 707 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: children getting because like kids get Instagram at like ten 708 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: in ship now, and you know, they're sort of value 709 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 1: and currency is so visually measured at a tender age 710 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 1: where everyone is so ugly and uncomfortable and like just 711 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: feeling so already that way, and to have it just 712 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: I don't know, I think it's really sad. It made 713 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,720 Speaker 1: me really sad and worried for kids that like even 714 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 1: more than it already is in that developmental stage that 715 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 1: it's like all our value is outsourced and not coming 716 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: from insider. So it really worries me deeply. Well, this 717 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,359 Speaker 1: is the thing. So there have been in the last 718 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 1: few years a lot of research has gone into this, 719 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 1: like a lot because that again, I think everyone was 720 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: on some level being like, yeah, I know, I feel 721 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 1: this doesn't feel good all the time. But it turns 722 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 1: out there was a just at the first thing did 723 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 1: a thirty year study of teenagers and technology to just 724 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,360 Speaker 1: sort of see like what this intersection of smartphones, social networks, 725 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: and changes in mental health work. And there's another one 726 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:03,439 Speaker 1: too in the New York Times I was just looking 727 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 1: at what the effect is on the you know, mental 728 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 1: health of children when they're interacting with these things, and 729 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 1: they found that there isn't It doesn't move the needle 730 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: that much. Like there's a lot more factors that affect 731 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: that going into it than the social media itself. Now 732 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 1: they're not saying relax, it's fine. They're like, it's a 733 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: it is a spectrum of results, but it's they said, 734 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 1: through their research, very hard to pinpoint like say, oh, yeah, 735 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,399 Speaker 1: there's the connection right there, and I think it's because yeah, 736 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,439 Speaker 1: I think I just don't think that's true. I think 737 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 1: just I just don't think that's true. And I would 738 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 1: be very curious to see, like for whoever's outcome that 739 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 1: was determined by whose results those were, because it's just 740 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: so clear, Like if you just talk to anyone on 741 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 1: earth and say, Okay, how do you feel when you 742 00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 1: go on Instagram? And then when you get off do 743 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: you feel better having looked at it? No, almost everyone 744 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 1: would say like, no, I don't feel great after, even 745 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,920 Speaker 1: if it's very low level, you know what I mean, 746 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 1: there's some so I mean I think that's the truth, 747 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 1: to be honest, that's you you know, what I mean. 748 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 1: I think. I also think there's something to the environment 749 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:23,880 Speaker 1: because poor kids don't have smartphones and their outcomes are 750 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: different to like based on what your emotional socio economic 751 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 1: environment is like when you're a kid who has a 752 00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 1: lot of an effect on like how you navigate life. 753 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 1: But yeah, I do. But I definitely agree with you 754 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 1: Blair that on some level there is like some slight 755 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:40,800 Speaker 1: debt I don't know, And I think maybe this is 756 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,279 Speaker 1: this could be generational or just because when you look 757 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: at the world in similar ways that like it does 758 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,320 Speaker 1: have an effect from like it did, I feel like 759 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: a slight deficit sometimes on like on some level. Well, 760 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 1: it's also always just a thing about even inadvertently without 761 00:43:56,160 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 1: realizing it, unconsciously work in almost steady, ceaseless state of 762 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: consuming instead of being in our own like uh, singular 763 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,800 Speaker 1: energy like it's I don't know, I find it. I 764 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: find it alarming. Yeah, but I think that's why I 765 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: think people have over the years you've especially on this show, 766 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 1: we hear constantly how everyone says social media is overrated 767 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: with some connection to it being like it doesn't do it. 768 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:28,759 Speaker 1: I used to be so annoyed when I would see 769 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 1: tweets or like by people like shooting on social media. 770 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 1: I would be like, just get off it then, But 771 00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 1: then and now, especially after seeing that that movie, it 772 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 1: really scared me for young girls, and like that two 773 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 1: hundred percent increase in suicides or something like that really 774 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 1: freaked me out. And also I think all those um 775 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 1: filters for faces are really scary for young kids, Like 776 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 1: we're all just morphing into like homogenized like Instagram face. 777 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:04,919 Speaker 1: It's it's scary, I think now that I've bummed out everyone. Yeah, 778 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 1: I I don't really know.

Yeah, to everyone's point, 829 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 1: I think everyone on some level has been examining their 830 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: own relationships to social media and like what that does 831 00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,360 Speaker 1: for their themselves and what that may mean for like 832 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,080 Speaker 1: reinforcing a sense of identity or feeling good about what 833 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 1: you do, and then you just figure out what maybe 834 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 1: I don't need it maybe, And I think to your point, Blare, 835 00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 1: like we live off of these fucking screens, man, Like 836 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:12,240 Speaker 1: we don't live on Twitter, we don't live on Instagram. 837 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,760 Speaker 1: And I know some people do or think that everything 838 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,920 Speaker 1: that happens there is their life.

Especially 844 00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:40,480 Speaker 1: in Quarantine, I really did renegotiate my entire relationship to 845 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 1: social media, and you know that's always an ongoing process. 846 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 1: But like I think in the beginning of Quarantine, I 847 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 1: took my first two week break in like eight years 848 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 1: or something, and it was like my brain completely just 849 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:57,360 Speaker 1: like like regenerated. It was just like it felt like 850 00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 1: it was like gas, like when you come up from underwater. 851 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 1: It was like getting air for the first time. And um, 852 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:08,600 Speaker 1: now what I do is I basically only use it 853 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,800 Speaker 1: from my laptop, and I um deleted from my phones, 854 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: but the for the during the day and unless I 855 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 1: have to repost something that I am forced to download 856 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 1: the app, but that has been How many times have 857 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 1: you downloaded and deleted? Redounded? Because oh my, I do 858 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:28,720 Speaker 1: it every day. Yeah, I love it. Yeah, you're like, alright, 859 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 1: just one small barrier though, for me to take back 860 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:36,400 Speaker 1: some of my goddamn freedom because I'm always you know, 861 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 1: we do it unconsciously. It's like I realized like half 862 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,719 Speaker 1: the time that I'm looking at it, it's just like, um, 863 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:45,279 Speaker 1: some habit. It's not like I consciously thought, you know, 864 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,360 Speaker 1: what I'd really like to do right now, have a 865 00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:49,759 Speaker 1: look at it Instagram. You know. It was just an 866 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:54,800 Speaker 1: unconscious action. Yeah. It is such like a individual journey 867 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 1: of like navigating like how is this going to be 868 00:49:57,600 --> 00:49:59,200 Speaker 1: able to? Like how am I going to have a 869 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 1: life outside of this? And what are I don't know 870 00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,360 Speaker 1: because I know people who love it and aren't like 871 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 1: based to me, seem completely free of the ills of 872 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 1: social media, and I'm like, huh, how are you are 873 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 1: you lying? They could be lying, Yeah, they could be. 874 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: But you know, sometimes you can tell with someone's like 875 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:18,840 Speaker 1: low key like spooky and sad underneath it all. Yeah, 876 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:21,840 Speaker 1: I mean if I wasn't a comedian, I would delete 877 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:26,719 Speaker 1: it today. I would delete it today, babes, I will 878 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,960 Speaker 1: be gone, disappeared, you'd never see me again. But you're 879 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:33,440 Speaker 1: more than a comedian player, I wouldn't. That's like I 880 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:35,560 Speaker 1: wouldn't delete. I don't know. I feel like there are 881 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 1: some ways where it's like social media has like fucked 882 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 1: my brain up irrevocably, and then other ways where I'm like, 883 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:44,160 Speaker 1: there are ways that I communicate better through those channels 884 00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:47,239 Speaker 1: or like talk to people I feel like more cogently 885 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:49,839 Speaker 1: or like whatever, talk to people you'd never be able 886 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,000 Speaker 1: to meet or talk. I don't know. It's so it's 887 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: so tricky. And then I also feel like there is 888 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:59,880 Speaker 1: this pressure to like perform having a better relationship with 889 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,400 Speaker 1: social media. Then you actually do, like I know that, 890 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:06,279 Speaker 1: like anytime someone's like whatever, posting to Instagram about how 891 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 1: they're not going to be on Instagram as much, and 892 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:10,320 Speaker 1: then I'm just like, I think you're lying, Like I 893 00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:13,399 Speaker 1: don't know, it's it's so that's what I think. That's 894 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 1: why it's so fucked up is because it's this way 895 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: where you think you can read like people can now 896 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,640 Speaker 1: see who you are and derived from that like a truth, 897 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,320 Speaker 1: and then your even questions like is this performative? Is 898 00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:27,560 Speaker 1: it not? Because? And I think that's sort of like 899 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,200 Speaker 1: the thing, the sort of momentum of questioning or inner 900 00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:32,800 Speaker 1: monologue that happens and I'm like, oh my god, I 901 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 1: kid like I just wanted to look at a picture 902 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 1: and now I'm like, is this person like well we 903 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:42,480 Speaker 1: I mean the truth is they'll even we like download 904 00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 1: ideas of what is acceptable and unacceptable through our mirror neurons, 905 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:50,920 Speaker 1: like that's our first access point in psyche, through our 906 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 1: rentin us. So it's like, I mean, these things do 907 00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:57,239 Speaker 1: have a big impact on us with subconsciously without us 908 00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 1: even realizing it. Like when I see the this is 909 00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 1: just a small example, but when I see women posting 910 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:07,480 Speaker 1: pictures like with their cellulite and stuff, like, I'm like, 911 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 1: that is fucking cool. It seems like a really small thing, 912 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 1: but they're doing it deliberately, and I'm like, oh, that 913 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:17,319 Speaker 1: makes me feel more comfortable with myself. Then when I'm 914 00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:21,800 Speaker 1: following only airbrushed models, you know what I mean, or 915 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:25,720 Speaker 1: just I mean, that's just one example of like many, many, 916 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,720 Speaker 1: many different facets of it. But it is a weird, 917 00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,360 Speaker 1: very weird thing because I think that's the version, like 918 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,399 Speaker 1: the insidious part is like the manicured version of life 919 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,160 Speaker 1: that is unattainable and really not close to reality. And 920 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,360 Speaker 1: then people who want to like sort of shift the 921 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 1: paradigm and be like things you need to be more honest, 922 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:49,719 Speaker 1: like rather than fantasy town because it's okay, let's talk 923 00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 1: about somebody from the Disney first, someone who I don't know, 924 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:57,360 Speaker 1: I just thought was somebody with a cool haircut and 925 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:01,120 Speaker 1: wild behind the wheel. But Cruela of Ville, the Cruella 926 00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:04,479 Speaker 1: film came out over the weekend, and yeah, people seem 927 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,239 Speaker 1: to be enjoying it. It's not getting like, you know, 928 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 1: panned or anything, and it's a It's an interesting moment 929 00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 1: because I think on some level I was like, oh, 930 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:15,279 Speaker 1: they're doing more origin stories. But you know J M. R. 931 00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:17,680 Speaker 1: Writer sort of went down of how this evolution of 932 00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 1: Corrolla Deville went down. You're like, oh, yeah, maybe this 933 00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:22,960 Speaker 1: humanized version is something useful considering how you know, Disney 934 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:26,560 Speaker 1: has a habit of being like, oh my god, evil 935 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:30,320 Speaker 1: lady or coded gay evil guy, what are we gonna do? 936 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:34,080 Speaker 1: So this keeps an opportunity for them to possibly do something. Now, 937 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,960 Speaker 1: I haven't seen the film, but I do we do 938 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:39,719 Speaker 1: know what has happened before.

Are people really remembering 944 00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:57,360 Speaker 1: Kuella Deville like to be its own character. There's a 945 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 1: thing though that like kids are attracted to the villains 946 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,560 Speaker 1: like we like like when you're young, there's something interesting 947 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 1: or you're like, oh, like there's something more energizing when 948 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 1: the villain comes on.

A lot of those like murderous plot 974 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:44,600 Speaker 1: lines where like when you think of Bambi, you're like, 975 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 1: holy sh it, it's just like the heaviest plot line 976 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:50,840 Speaker 1: to point in the psyche of a child like you 977 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:54,560 Speaker 1: could ever see. But I I also I'm like, yeah, 978 00:55:54,680 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 1: these are badass stories. I like ulla Honestly, I'm not lying. 979 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:05,400 Speaker 1: I saw a bandy fucking once. Okay, we had that 980 00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:08,400 Speaker 1: VHS and that soft ass case you know back in 981 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:10,160 Speaker 1: the day, and the Disney movies all came in that 982 00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:15,440 Speaker 1: padded case because I guess likes and I remember yo, 983 00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:20,840 Speaker 1: the second the Mango capt I was in tears, shattered 984 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:23,320 Speaker 1: and like I made my mom turn it off and 985 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 1: that was it. I couldn't even go past that. I 986 00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:27,279 Speaker 1: was like, I'm off this mom. I think for the 987 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 1: I think for a lot of children, like especially our generation, 988 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:35,440 Speaker 1: that was that moment was the first moment of realizing 989 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:42,520 Speaker 1: like parental mortality that in The Lion King. Yeah, we're like, yeah, 990 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:46,000 Speaker 1: for sure, The Lion King was there's my friends who 991 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,719 Speaker 1: have kids, like I heard. I was like catching up 992 00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 1: with with friends from home the other day and they 993 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:53,000 Speaker 1: were like trying talking about like, oh, when are you 994 00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,440 Speaker 1: going to be comfortable showing your kid The Lion King? 995 00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:57,920 Speaker 1: Because of like the whole move Faucel thing where I 996 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 1: was like Oh, my parents didn't think and twice they're 997 00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:05,640 Speaker 1: just like life is short, watch it now. But I 998 00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:09,239 Speaker 1: used costumes from roller rinks, right right? So I think 999 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:12,400 Speaker 1: I turned out fine. I think so, I mean, did 1000 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:14,320 Speaker 1: you stop at the moment you saw it? Because I 1001 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,000 Speaker 1: think there's version I. For whatever reason, the Bamby thing, 1002 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 1: I could not go on as I just could not 1003 00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:22,760 Speaker 1: go on. But I think maybe because Bamby was my 1004 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 1: first Disney based trauma. When I saw a lion king, 1005 00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: I was a little bit older and had already like 1006 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:30,400 Speaker 1: had like family members passed away and had dealt with 1007 00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:32,960 Speaker 1: something that I was like, that's sad, but I didn't 1008 00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 1: maybe it didn't hit me as hard. The other thing 1009 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:39,200 Speaker 1: is this whole thing with Corella Deville. It's a derivative 1010 00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:42,000 Speaker 1: work from a book that was written by Dodie Smith. 1011 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:44,760 Speaker 1: A Hunter one Dalmatians. Oh, and I for the record, 1012 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 1: I love the animated series. I I My first dog 1013 00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 1: was a Dalmatian that we bought in Simar. That was like, 1014 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 1: these dogs are so inbred. But that was like that. 1015 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 1: I remember my dad saying that, And I learned what 1016 00:57:56,200 --> 00:58:00,439 Speaker 1: inbreeding was at six years old because my dad he's 1017 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 1: like and I'm like what, He's like, they're inbred. And 1018 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, what does that mean. He's like, it means 1019 00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:07,800 Speaker 1: the brothers and the sisters or the mom they all 1020 00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:10,120 Speaker 1: have to have sex to make the new ones, to 1021 00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:13,840 Speaker 1: keep the dogs looking that way. And let's bring our 1022 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,960 Speaker 1: dog home. And now I'm a guy who hosts a 1023 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:20,920 Speaker 1: podcast and talks about used costumes. FM roller ranks. In 1024 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 1: my opinion, honestly, I want to give you a like 1025 00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 1: a kudos, thank you, thank you, thank you. So this 1026 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:32,440 Speaker 1: book by Dodie Smith. You know, it's been argued that Smith, 1027 00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 1: who herself had no children and it was a successful author, 1028 00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 1: she had adopt a male pseudonym just to get in 1029 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:42,480 Speaker 1: the business, which I've never heard of. This what someone 1030 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:44,440 Speaker 1: faking it to get in. I've never heard of this. 1031 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:47,160 Speaker 1: So she had to use a pseudonym get in and 1032 00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 1: then made Cruella essentially a satire of male paranoia that 1033 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:55,880 Speaker 1: there could be this independent, wealthy, rebellious woman with no 1034 00:58:56,120 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 1: children and therefore must be pure evil, and was sort 1035 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:02,960 Speaker 1: of like the wink of that character. But you know, 1036 00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 1: the epic Bros of nineteen fifty six, we're not as 1037 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:12,040 Speaker 1: clear on getting that nuance because once Disney bought the 1038 00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 1: I P and gave it over to a group of 1039 00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:17,240 Speaker 1: guys who like they called like the Nine Old Men, 1040 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:19,520 Speaker 1: Like not even a joke, like that's what this group 1041 00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 1: was called. That turned the character completely like on its 1042 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:26,400 Speaker 1: head and made it something completely different and just being like, oh, 1043 00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: she's an evil woman and she's wacky and rich. So 1044 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 1: oh no, kids, you've seen this. Yeah, just like any 1045 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 1: I mean, that's like Disney's full of like villains that 1046 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:40,080 Speaker 1: are like women over forty that like are not mothers 1047 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:43,200 Speaker 1: that have just stopped breastfeeding moments before the scene. Like 1048 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:46,760 Speaker 1: it's so yeah. It is like in the same thing 1049 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 1: happened in the nineties six remake Glenn Close, Right, isn't that? 1050 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,080 Speaker 1: Isn't that the ninety was that ninety Yeah, that was 1051 00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:56,360 Speaker 1: nineties six. I rewatched that movie not too long ago. 1052 00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:59,720 Speaker 1: It's bizarre, but Glenn Close is really good. It sounds 1053 00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:03,640 Speaker 1: like because in this one it wasn't about being like 1054 01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:09,040 Speaker 1: a wealthy, independent woman who had no children. This version was, oh, 1055 01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 1: successful women are fucking dangerous suddenly. Relativeville is like this 1056 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:19,120 Speaker 1: fashion executive and right, it makes like evil like these 1057 01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:22,080 Speaker 1: speeches that are about quote the talent killing dulness of 1058 01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 1: marriage and child rearing. Oh wow, that's a little on 1059 01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:28,800 Speaker 1: the fucking nose bone. And then even the reviews are like, 1060 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:31,400 Speaker 1: we're calling the film out is quote for it's pretty 1061 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:36,000 Speaker 1: retrogressive tone where everyone's like what is what? What happened 1062 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:39,040 Speaker 1: to this thing? And then there's like the other thing, 1063 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:41,040 Speaker 1: the road rage. You know, I think a lot of 1064 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:45,480 Speaker 1: people think remember from the film or the animated version 1065 01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:48,280 Speaker 1: when she's driving around that like dope OUs hot rod 1066 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:50,520 Speaker 1: and ship and she's got like the demonic face and 1067 01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:52,560 Speaker 1: all this ship going on. So that was the other thing, 1068 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 1: a huge thing that a lot of people like. This 1069 01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 1: is um, I think this speels like if it's the 1070 01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:01,880 Speaker 1: Nine Old Men. Perhaps this has something to do with 1071 01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:06,280 Speaker 1: the anti suffragette movement, where you know, essentially for women 1072 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:09,479 Speaker 1: looking for who are trying to have the right to vote. 1073 01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:13,080 Speaker 1: The arguments were like like after the fact, like these people, 1074 01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 1: these women want to have the right to vote and 1075 01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,800 Speaker 1: all this only they're The whole idea of women driving 1076 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 1: cars was like a political symbol could even drive. It's like, oh, 1077 01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 1: these brods are hysterical, look at them, Look at him 1078 01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:28,840 Speaker 1: to get behind the wheel. It's wacky. You see what 1079 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 1: happens when a woman is mobile. I remember it's so 1080 01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:39,960 Speaker 1: funny because both the Henchman Goon guys and her. I 1081 01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 1: recall so deeply feeling so much anxiety when both of 1082 01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:47,960 Speaker 1: them were in the driving scenes because they're like semi 1083 01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 1: flying out of the cars the entire time in the cars, 1084 01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:53,760 Speaker 1: like going like that in all the scenes. It was 1085 01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 1: just chaos. I mean, Laurie is one of the guys too, 1086 01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:01,680 Speaker 1: in the nineties one. He's like one of the what's 1087 01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:04,960 Speaker 1: from a call it the Bad the Bad Guys? Right, Oh, 1088 01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:11,120 Speaker 1: this is an all star cast. Um. So yeah, I mean, 1089 01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:12,920 Speaker 1: like looking at all this now, I haven't seen it, 1090 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 1: and I'm definitely down to see it because I remember 1091 01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:16,720 Speaker 1: even seeing the trailer when it came.
