Speaker 1: can all remember back in March fields, like when things

50
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: first started getting a little crazy. I actually so, I

51
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: was supposed to move into this new apartment on April

52
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 1: one in Los Angeles, and about a week before moving in,

53
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: I get a message from my friends saying, hey, my

54
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: roommate actually decided he's not going to move out anymore.

55
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: And I was like, I'm screwed, Like that's come on, man,

56
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: you can't do that. A week before I'm like, my

00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 1: my roommate at my current apartment already are already found

58
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: a new roommate for the apartment. Like I, I got

59
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: nowhere to go. So I called my buddy and I

60
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,919
Speaker 1: was like, hey, could I just you know, crash at

61
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: your place for a couple of weeks or a month

62
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: and I'll you know, I'll pay for your A C

63
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: bill or whatever. I'll pay for half your rent just

64
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: until I find a place. He was like, yeah, no problem.

65
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: And then two weeks into staying there, NEWSOM shuts down

66
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 1: the state and then all of a sudden everything starts

67
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: shutting down, and the guy who screwed me over, I'm

68
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 1: actually like, hey, thanks. You know, I didn't have to

69
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: sign a your lease. I wasn't stuck in a lease

70
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: like a lot of people have been unfortunately. And uh.

71
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 1: And so then I decided to go to I called

72
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: my aunt and uncle who live out in bumble fuck

73
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,240

76
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: They they live in bubble fuck New Hampshire. And I

77
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: was like, well, that's probably the better place to be

78
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: right now with everything going on just around nobody. And

79
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,679
Speaker 1: they also had my dog because when I was filming

80
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: um the movie Half Brothers Uh last year, it was

81
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: in New Mexico for three months, and I don't want

82
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: to put them in boarding and they love dogs, and

83
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 1: so I brought him there to New Hampshire and so

84
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: I hung out with them for what I thought was

85
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: gonna be like a month. I think we all were like, Oh,

86
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: this will be a month and then this Corona thing

87
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: will be gone, and but we all didn't know what

88
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 1: we were talking about. We're all confused. I think a

89
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: lot of us still are, but hung out New Hampshire

90
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: for three months. And then I'm from Chicago, born and

91
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: raised in Chicago, so I came to Chicago after that,

92
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: and I've been in Chicago since June just kind of

93
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: all my family and closest friends are still in this city.

94
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 1: So this is where I've been hunkered down and you know,

95
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: trying to find the positives and things. Yeah. Yeah, the

96
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: real sampling of the different ways that the nation, different

97
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: parts of the nation shut down, deal with with quarantine.

98
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: Any any any insight to share how Chicago doing in particular,

99
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: Chicago is doing well in New Hampshire, you know, my

Speaker 1: My aunt and uncle are very they're scientists. They're all

101
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: for mask wearing all that stuff. And when I would

102
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: have my mask on everywhere i'd go, I'd get a

103
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 1: lot of dirty looks and things at gas stations wherever

104
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: I was. And uh, and then in Chicago it's you know,

105
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: obviously completely flipped. Um. People have been really smart about

106
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 1: it here. They supported it. Um. I also got here

107
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: in the beautiful summer, so it was it was nice

108
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: because people, oh my gosh, yeah, that's one of the

109
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: best cities in the world. To have a great summer,

110
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: you have to have an awful winter. People don't. People

111
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 1: don't take it for granted here. But so it was

112
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 1: kind of nice, man, Honestly, Um, it was really beautiful

113
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,960

115
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: cases were okay. And I have friends who work in

116
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: hospitals and they're always updating me saying, no, it's fine.

117
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: You know, it's not bad at all. And March it

118
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: was really bad. You know, the people who don't like

119
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: to believe in this stuff just talk to like the people,

120
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: you know, those are the people I trust the most

121
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: the ones who are actually they're dealing with this. Yeah,

122

Speaker 1: and it was hell for them healthcare workers who are Yeah,

123
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: it blows my mind. We were recently talking about how

124
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: the nation has turned its lonely eyes to you as

125
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,440

Speaker 1: Chicago is having a mom um. Yeah, the Chicago Wednesdays

129
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:03,800

130
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: whole night dedicated to it. Yeah, I don't watch them.

131
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: You live it, man, We watch it to see how

132
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: you're living. Thank you. All right, Connor, We're gonna get

133
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: to know you a little bit better in a moment. First,

134
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna tell our listeners a few of the things

135
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: we're talking about. We're gonna check in with the Florida

136
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: whistleblower who checked in with early on in the pandemic

137
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: when she was fired for building out data that was

138
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 1: too responsive to the facts. Her house was just rated

139
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: like a dissident in a post apocalyptic movie. So we're

140
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: talking about that and how CBS News is covering that

141
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 1: mainstream media nailing it once again. We're gonna just do

142
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: some COVID stuff. William Shakespeare got vexed in the UK.

143
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that, um and how confidence in the

144
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: vaccine is increasing. We'll talk about whether we're allowed to

145
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,719
Speaker 1: call this damn thing a coup despite the fact that

146
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 1: it uh seems to be more slapstick comedy. Uh, there's

147
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: been some interesting articles about why it's still more dangerous

148
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: than you would think based on the comedy of it all.

149
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: We'll talk about the fact that the former head of

150
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: Israel's NASA basically the NASA equivalent in Israel, says Aliens

151
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: are already here kicking it with us, no big deal.

152
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,599
Speaker 1: But before we get to any of that, connor, what

153
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,319
Speaker 1: is something from your search history that's revealing about who

154
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: you are? All right? You know? I was like, should

155
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: I remove this? But I'm just gonna go for it.

156
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: The last thing was if you fell from a high

157
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: building on top of a person, would you live? Huh

158
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,319
Speaker 1: okaya fight what? Yes? So if you fell from a

159
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: high building on top of a person, would you live?

160
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: But I couldn't word it in the way I was looking.

161
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: What I wanted to find was if you fell with

162
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 1: a person. Let's say you fell with a person and

163
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: then you kind of were holding to them on top

164
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,439
Speaker 1: they hit the ground with the inertia, still kill you

165
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: as well. That's more my question, but I couldn't find

166
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 1: the answer. Is the person Batman? Because Dark Knight, I

167
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: think answers that when Rachel and Batman right right, the

168
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: person is not Batman. Yeah, I think you both die,

169
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:32,199
Speaker 1: then both die. Yeah, unless they're really uh you know,

170
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: large and squishy. I would imagine like a person made

171
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: of mattresses. Yeah, yeah, I guess that's the only way.

172
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 1: It would have to be the only mattress, some manner

173
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,719
Speaker 1: of beached whale. I feel like you'd be okay, like

174
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: one of those carcasses that from back in my crack days.

175
00:10:54,880 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: We did a like action movie myth busting article that

176
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: I think we we were specifically focused on the idea

177
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: of jumping off of the building into a dumpster, because

178
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:17,199
Speaker 1: that seems to be the standard small breaking awnings. It

179
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 1: seems too obvious that you would just tear through and

180
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: uh you know, create modern art with a doorman and

181
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: your own inside. But but even the even the um

182
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: the trash dumpster, it seemed like people were saying that

183
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: if it's beyond I think it was. It was a

184
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 1: surprisingly low number of stories that it's just deadly. It

185
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. You're gonna because there's something specifically engineered in

186
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 1: there to uh slowly break your fall. You're you're gonna

187
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: get turned into putting. What if you're holding an umbrella

188
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: well as you descend? Yeah, exactly, it's a prettier fall.

189
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: Take that science, I think. But also I think the dumpster.

190
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 1: I mean you have to like swish, your body has

191
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 1: to swish that. I mean to be perfect, the heel

192
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: of the rim your spinal explode. Yeah, you have to

193
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 1: before you jump off, you have to say lebron hopefully

194
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: into that because hold up your goose neck shooting hand

195
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: waiting for it to go in. Still all right, so

196
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: you die? So okay, yeah, wait what brought on that search? Exactly?

197
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: Like what were you really were having a discussion and

198
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 1: you just be like, God, this dream may be real.

199
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 1: I was writing something, I want to say, I was

200
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: writing something and trying to figure out if that would

201
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 1: you want to the science? Yeah, I want to honor

202
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,079
Speaker 1: the science. Yeah, I mean I've also like when I

203
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: would take elevators. I don't know if everybody thinks this way,

204
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: but before you hit, right before you hit it, do

205
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,719
Speaker 1: you jump right before you hit and you like do

206
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: it on your side? You know, you go huh, but

207
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 1: I think the nurses still takes you. Yeah, it still

208
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 1: takes you down. I think so because your jump is

209
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,839
Speaker 1: relative to the ground. So just like you're hitting the

210
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 1: ground at the same speed that you were traveling when

211
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: you jumped on a on a like stationary. I think

212
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: about this ship all the time, man, I know, I

213
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:31,839
Speaker 1: get Yeah. The other thing I think about is like

214
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: if you jump off of a building, like running as

215
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,959
Speaker 1: fast as you can, like how far out can you

216
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: make it? Um? Because yeah, that's just not that far. Yeah,

217
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: not that far, that far, not that far. Um Anyways, Uh,

218
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: fucking elevators, Man, you gotta watch out for those things. Uh.

219
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 1: At otis guys always trying to take you out. What

220
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 1: is something, uh that you think is underrated? Uh? Something

221
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: I think is underrated is uh the Leftovers series? This

222
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: television series. For some reason, it just went nobody watched it.

223
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: But that was like that's probably at least in my opinion,

224
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 1: and I think a lot of critics and other people.

225
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: I think it's like one of the greatest written shows

226
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: of all time. Like I was just I just talked

227
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: to somebody last week who was just swearing up and down.

228
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: I think Jack, you first started talking about it when

229
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: we started watching watch Men. I think because you were like, Yo,

230
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: Lindeloff in The Leftovers is was like fire and and

231
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: I think my conception was season two was really good,

232
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: season one is whatever, Season two is like unbelievable. And

233
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: someone else came at me with the same things, like

234
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: you gotta funk with him in season two and through

235
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: like there there, it's next level. Yeah, damn. It was

236
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: interesting on the Watchman front because he basically started with

237
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: season two of of like season one of Lefto is

238
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 1: the book, and then season two they keep going and

239
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 1: like he gets to like write what happens after Yeah,

240
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: and that's when it gets really really good. And so

241
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 1: with Watchman, he was just like, let's just start here

242
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: that Usually most of the time it's the opposite, like

243
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: once people lose the source material, then all of a

244
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: sudden it downgrades. Yeah. Yeah, the Leftovers just what your

245
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: friends said. I mean, it's a heavy show. It's a

246
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: hard show, and I could see why a lot of

247
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: people maybe couldn't get in tune with it. Uh, But

248
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: that second season is like the writing is just like

249
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: a sweater that's been threatening, Like I see that's I

250
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: love writing like that. I think that makes sense because

251
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: I was a stupid Lost fanboy like up until season

252
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: three or four, and then like it completely was like,

253
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: oh I don't like it too much, but I will

254
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: stick around to be upset. I mean, especially that last

255
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: season with straight disrespect um. But yeah, and I think

256
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: then but like watching Watchman as well, where you go

257
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: seemingly from like this is all chaos and then you're like,

258
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: oh my god, it was the fucking pieces where I

259
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: was eating the puzzle pieces the whole time I didn't know.

260
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: That's one of one of my favorite ways of like

261
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: enjoying like long form TV content. So yeah, that's also

262
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 1: one of those uh places where we like got the duo,

263
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: we like gave j J Abrams all the credit, and

264
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: then Lindeloff was back there actually like turning out to

265
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: be the dude who I don't know. I guess they're

266
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: both talented in their own ways. But I feel like

267
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 1: when when Lost first hit, people are like Abrams He's

268
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: gonna be the future, He's the next Spielberg. And then

269
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: I feel like, what about Carton Ques Brood about that

270
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: guy on last year? I'm just thinking that, Like I was, like,

271
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: I only remember J J. Abrams. Yeah, um yeah, Lindeloff

272
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: is the band though. I think he's like one of

273
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: the best show runners and creators on TV right now.

274
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: He's awesome. I love the pilot of The Leftovers as

275
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: one of my favorite pilots of any show. Um. Then

276
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: the rest of the season one wasn't crazy about and

277
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 1: didn't really watch it beyond a certain point. But season

278
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: two is incredible. And then for some reason I never

279
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 1: watched season three. It's great. It's great. Season two is

280
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 1: definitely like the Pinnacle, I think. But but season three

281
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: is wonderful. I think it has a perfect ending and

282
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: just great acting, great writing, great cinematic, great music, great everything.

283
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 1: It's just great, great, great great. What is something you

284
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: think is overrated? Coconut water? Coconut everything? What is up?

285
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: What is up? Come on? Man? I think I honestly,

286
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: I think coconut water tastes like like severed decayne feet

287
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: sitting in a swamp filled with trash, and like zombie

288
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: decomposed beavers swimming around in it. Like, I don't understand

289
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: the love for coconut water, especially in Los Angeles. That

290
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: is like it's holly there, coconut water, cocon I just

291
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,719
Speaker 1: don't like coconut everything. The aftertaste is awful, It's awful.

292
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: Some coconut waters I've liked because the ones that are

293
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 1: kind of taste good to me are the ones that

294
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: kind of smell it. Their tastes like old corn flake milk.

295
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: Like there's like a feeling of old cereal milk to it.

296
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: Is that kind of coconut water. I drink and I'm like, oh,

297
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: this ship kind of tastes like an old bowl of cereal.

298
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 1: And then I'm like, why do I pay five bucks

299
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,159
Speaker 1: for this? I don't need this funk with it? Like,

300
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: I really like it. I think it's very refreshing, and

301
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: even I admit that it tastes like bad breath time,

302
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,159
Speaker 1: Like when it's when it's warm, it just feels like

303
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: the inside of a mouth that hasn't been rushed in days. Yeah, yeah,

304
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 1: that's the flavor of coconut. Yeah. The the oil, I

305
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: like the oil, you know, good for my dog's coat,

306
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: my skin. You know, those things I think are undeniable.

307
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: But yeah, the water I just remember to like, you

308
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: know what, maybe eight years ago is when it was

309
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: like it was started. It was perco Laton, like the

310
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 1: coconut water just trend and to the point like where

311
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,639
Speaker 1: everyone in l A like it almost felt obligatory that

312
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 1: you went to some at least one event that was

313
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 1: sponsored by a coconut water company. Uh. And now I

314
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 1: feel like we're I think, I don't know, like what,

315
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened. I don't know who this.

316
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,359
Speaker 1: I don't know as many hardcore coconut water people as

317
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: I used to, or it's just normalized now right right,

318
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: It's just they just call it water, I guess in

319
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: defense of I am a big coconut head from the

320
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 1: day I was a child. I remember like still fucking

321
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 1: with like the coconut candies and a coconut or in

322
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: a like love Mound's Love Almond joy Um and coconut water.

323
00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:01,120
Speaker 1: I there's this anecdote that I think is true that um,

324
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: during World War Two, when there was a shortage of

325
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 1: blood plasma, they would use coconut water because it's identical

326
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: to human blood plasma. And could be safely injected directly

327
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 1: into the bloodstream according to body ecology. Uh so don't

328
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 1: do that, uh needlessly. But that's why I when I

329
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 1: drink it, I have the feeling of like, and it's

330
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 1: probably mostly mental, but I have the feeling like, ah,

331
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: this is going directly into the old veins, making that's

332
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: like minimal cannibalism. The way you phrase that you're just

333
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: drinking human when you can't drink human blood is what

334
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You've gotta go just go for the coconut.

335
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 1: Ever since you and Peter Deal have been on the

336
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:57,440
Speaker 1: outs here, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, like Lacroix.

337
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: Whenever I see somebody who has Lacroix coconut, I'm just like,

338
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 1: it was a hard sell that. I mean, I like, like,

339
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: coconut cold is the only way to I have a

340
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 1: friend shoutout Nurse Brittany, who loves coconut. Lacroix drinks the ship.

341
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: I've seen her drink at room temperature, and I'm like,

342
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: oh my god, sun tanned lotion that sounds like coconut

343
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,919
Speaker 1: always available. That flavor is always available in the aisles.

344
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 1: When you look at Lacroix I'm just saying it's the

345
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: one that's always there, Yeah, the one that's vaguely brown

346
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 1: on the can, which is always an enticing flavor when

347
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: you're reaching refreshing seltzer. Yeah. I don't funk with coconut

348
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: flavored like things. Just okay, ump, except noah imitation. I've

349
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: always said that. All right, let's take a quick break.

350
00:21:47,080 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back. So there was

351
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 1: a news story yesterday warning that Rebecca Jones, who we've

352
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: checked in with before because she built that uh lit

353
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: Florida database or was in charge of populating it, was

354
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: key instrumental in building out this Florida database early on

355
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 1: in the pandemic that was just updating with data and

356
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 1: like making contact tracing uh seemingly possible, and then got

357
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: fired because she was not like telling the party line

358
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 1: of not nothing to see here. So her house was

359
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 1: just rated. The police came in with guns drawn to

360
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: take her computers and phone because they think she sent

361
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: a like hecked the system and sent an email to

362
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: people saying, like, you know, encouraging other people to be whistleblowers.

363
00:22:56,560 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: She claims it wasn't her, but regardless, it seems that

364
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: they would come in with guns drawn and point them

365
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 1: at her children. Uh, like two and eleven are Um.

366
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 1: It just has a very like dissident in a post

367
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 1: apocalyptic movie vibe to it, like where they're dealing with

368
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 1: the people who and without any you know, it's a

369
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,120
Speaker 1: it's a Santist joint. This, this is a de Santist joint,

370
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 1: brought to you by the the artist, the director, Ron

371
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 1: de Santis. But it was weird because I was I

372
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,719
Speaker 1: was reading through the coverage of this, and CBS News

373
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:44,479
Speaker 1: took a a strongly skeptical view of Rebecca Jones. They

374
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,439
Speaker 1: were like Since her firing, she has lit up social

375
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 1: media with post criticizing de Santis and his state agencies.

376
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: For months, she has tried to promote herself as a

377
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: victim who was fired for telling the truth, although there

378
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: is no evidence that supports her claim, which is just

379
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: I think a good reminder that the mainstream media is

380
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: in the business of like gaining access to people in

381
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: power and exchange for you know, favorable coverage and posing

382
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 1: up to the people in the know, um, and that

383
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 1: their point of view is irrevocably warped by you know

384
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 1: and tilted in favor of the people with access and power.

385
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:31,120
Speaker 1: Just seemed really disgraceful that that was like their point

386
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: of view going into this thing where a person who

387
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: you know, has a social media platform is going up

388
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 1: against the fucking government and they're pulling guns on her

389
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:47,119
Speaker 1: and her family. They're like, yeah, Okay, she's been hella

390
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: thirsty on social media's it's like, what are you this?

391
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,719
Speaker 1: The wild thing to me about her is too when

392
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 1: they when they say there's no evidence that like, you know,

393
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 1: this could be retribute or whatever they say, there's no

394
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 1: evidence that supports her claims that she was like a

395
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: victim who was fired for telling the truth. I mean,

396
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure she has documentation around the idea that

397
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: they were saying, we need the numbers to look a

398
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 1: certain way, even if they don't, so we don't have

399
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,960
Speaker 1: to lock down. Like the official party line is that

400
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 1: she was insubordinate, Like it's like what we're talking about,

401
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 1: and yeah, the gun thing is so unnecessary. Like the

402
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: police like sort of pushed back on the idea that

403
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 1: they did drug guns. Cut to her video that shows

404
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: them with guns in hand the stairs, and then yeah,

405
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: the Miami Herald article was like, there's no evidence from

406
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: the video that says that uh authorities pointed weapons at

407
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: anyone in Jones's home. What the funk are you talking about?

408
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: So they were just like vaguely pointing them up the

409
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,959
Speaker 1: stairs where her and her kids were. But see they

410
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,400
Speaker 1: put in new audio that sounded like police were there

411
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,399
Speaker 1: and saying get your hands up whatever. And really it

412
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 1: was like a part the Season party sort of scene

413
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 1: where they were like, hey, if you're in the building,

414
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: get your guns up, and they were kind of doing

415
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: that thing. And see that was a total of deep

416
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: fake video that they did on there. But it's just

417
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 1: all it's all trash. I mean, the even like the

418
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: way that system is set up. I was reading that

419
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,239
Speaker 1: that whole COVID like thing that she had set up

420
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: that's used by the state. They used the same user

421
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,359
Speaker 1: name and password for the entire thing. So even if

422
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: she was booted out, like they didn't even change the

423
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 1: information after Like the I T security is absolutely laughable.

424
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: But then they want to act like, oh, these people

425
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: are hacking in or like using this information or whatever.

426
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 1: It's like this is all like it's such a clear

427
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: cut case of harassment. Um, And I mean, I don't

428
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,400
Speaker 1: know I mean, we don't know if she left that message.

429
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem like that's the most effective way to

430
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: get your point across. If you know, you're a data scientist,

431
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: but you know that's that's that's where we're at right now.

432
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 1: Then De Santis has made his state like like intentionally

433
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: hostile to people who are either exposing the truth, standing

434
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: for the truth, or in opposition to any kind of discrimination.

435
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:15,160
Speaker 1: So this, this, this all seems on brand for the state. Yeah,

436
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 1: and it's terrifying. I mean it's terrifying. You're right, it's

437
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,919
Speaker 1: on brand. But I just don't understand, Like, if okay,

438
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,360
Speaker 1: you're you want to get a cell phone, you want

439
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 1: to get a computer, why do you have to even

440
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: start with the raid of the house. Why does that

441
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: have to be the start. Why can't you have a

442
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: megaphone outside? Like, if you're gonna do this this little

443
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 1: mafio so thing that they're pulling off, why not have

444
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: everybody stake come outside. Everybody comes outside. You don't have

445
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: to have your guns drawn, especially since there's children. They

446
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 1: they if they know where she lives and they know

447
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 1: all this information about her, they know she has children,

448
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: they know what age, they are you know, tried to

449
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: do and they said she ignored them. The cow minutes, Yeah,

450
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: the cops knocked on her door and she was like, Okay,

451
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get arrested, so I should get dressed and like,

452
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: you know, because these are COVID times, not everybody is

453
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 1: like camera ready the second the cops decide to randomly

454
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 1: make a house call. So and during this yeah, and

455
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 1: then during those twenty minutes, uh, they took that as

456
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 1: her you know, the police were picturing her in their

457
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: barricaded with weapons instead of just like putting you know,

458
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:34,400
Speaker 1: getting her hair ready for rest or whatever the fuck. Um. Anyways, meanwhile,

459
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: just another story about who de Santis has put on

460
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: his actual uh you know, data analysis COVID team. Uh

461
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,479
Speaker 1: is a young man, not a young man, old man

462
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: by the name of Kyle Lamb, forty year old who

463
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 1: is a sports blogger spent several years writing about Ohio

464
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: State University for Ohio State Universe. I apologize that is

465
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: my bad. Um. I remember being so confused on Monday

466
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: night football. I'm like, why the fund do they all

467
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 1: have that energy for the university? Does that go back

468
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: to like a feud with oh you or something where

469
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: like Ohio University was like claiming they were Ohio University

470
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: the state anyways. Uh, anyway back to the cluster. So

471
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: Kyle Lamb has then recently gained a Twitter following for

472
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 1: doing the easiest thing to get yourself Twitter following and

473
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: amplifying conspiracy theories about COVID nineteen uh, including his belief

474
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 1: that masks do not prevent the virus from spreading and

475
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: that the pandemic might be part of a bio war.

476
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: And De Santis brought him on as a yeah, as

477
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: a member of his team to replace you know, I mean, yeah,

478
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: these are all attempts that legitimizing this kind of outlandish

479
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: talk of saying, well this is my expert, okay, and

480
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: I'm ordaining them as being on my panel as governor.

481
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: That now suddenly people be like, well, I don't know

482
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: why they if this guy is on the governor's panel,

483
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: Like maybe we do need to think about this whole

484
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: bio war nonsense. It's fucked up, Like it's completely you

485
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 1: know that That's why everyone's faith in or in science

486
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:25,239
Speaker 1: and medicine is like, you know, vacillating between like uh

487
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: faith and like what the fun is going on and

488
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: it's his. Uh, I feel like it's his. It's the

489
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: santisist way of just trying to throw as much you know, um,

490
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: like garbage in the middle of the floor that people

491
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: have to clean up before getting to him. Flood the

492
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 1: you know, flood the zone with ship is ship before

493
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: they can blame me and take me out. You know.

494
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: It's that is a bet. That's something from his playbook.

495
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: It's uh, it's terrifying. Man's so it's so awful, Like

496
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 1: that's why I'll I will always I'll always go with

497
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 1: the scientists. I mean, luckily, you know I had There's

498
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: there's quite a few in my family. Shout out to

499
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 1: my cousin Elliott Stanford working at a lab making masks

500
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: for people around the world out of old Scoopa mass

501
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 1: And I mean she's been working since March Man Cameron

503
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's uh. I've heard he's converting some scuba

Speaker 1: some ship to like the wildest dad rig you've ever seen.

506
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 1: There were some scholars in my family. I did like

507
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: two weeks of community college and was like it's not

508
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 1: for me and UH and left. You know, all my

509
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: community college students out there, they'll keep going. Man, get

510
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 1: to get to get to get to get it. Uh.

511
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 1: Let's talk about, um, some ideas for police reform that

512
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: are being put forward in California. There's a bill being

513
00:31:54,440 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: discussed that is kind of incrementalist the way that basically

514
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 1: all of the ideas for police reform that are endorsed

515
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: by uh the police are attend to be. But yeah,

516
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: this one is basically saying that becoming a cop should

517
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: require you to have a bachelor's degree and be twenty

518
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: five years old, just based on statistics about what police

519
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: officers with those attributes, how violent they are versus otherwise. Yeah,

520
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: the legislator who's putting it, who's who wrote the bill, UH,

521
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: is referring to like this study in twos ten that

522
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: that basically says that college educated officers typically typically typically

523
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: use less force often and fewer complaints filed against them. Now, okay,

524
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: that's a good thing to identify that group of people. UM,

525
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 1: but this is you know, like we're saying this is

526
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: incremental change when we know what the real issues are.

527
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 1: But you know, this isn't the issue here. And like,

528
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 1: the reason this bill is coming out isn't because we

529
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 1: have a problem with you know, not enough cops who

530
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: studied abroad in Bartarlona. You know, we have fucking real

531
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: issues here. This is an issue within policing that is

532
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 1: anti black, anti poor, anti fucking everything. Uh. And they're

533
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 1: protected by powerful unions that can keep any kind of real,

534
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 1: meaningful like legal repercussions from ever you know, getting close

535
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 1: to them, as well as like the financial consequences via

536
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: these like ridiculous retirement plans a lot of these people

537
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 1: have where it's like, dude, you get fired and then

538
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 1: you're fucking set, like no matter what, even if you

539
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: straight to murder somebody twice. Uh. And this is just

540
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 1: you know, these are the kinds of things that you'd

541
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 1: wish the legislators were actually looking at, because this is

542
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 1: a good way of legislator being like, well, this is

543
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: this is an improvement. Yes, that would be great because

544
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 1: right now you just need to be I think like eighteen,

545
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: or have an equivalent like eighteen with an equivalent in

546
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 1: a high school diploma to begin your training, and it

547
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 1: can be I think twenty. If you're in the California

548
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 1: Highway patrol. But yes, this is that's a good way

549
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: to try and weed out other people. But it's really

550
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: a disingenuous attempt at real reform, and we just need

551
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: to look at how much money is going to these

552
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: departments and actually just having this conversation about reinvesting in communities,

553
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 1: because the perception in law enforcement in this country is, well,

554
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: people commit crime because they're black, rather than seeing the

555
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 1: full picture of how black and brown Americans have been abandoned.

556
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,280
Speaker 1: And we're merely just branding this failure of governance as crime.

557
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,879
Speaker 1: You know, it's not, oh, it's crime. It's not we've

558
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 1: failed these people. They have no recourse. They're so desperate

559
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 1: that they commit crime. People commit crimes out of desperation.

560
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 1: You know, nine times out of ten. There are some

561
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 1: people who just do it for the jollies. But let's

562
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 1: be real, like a lot of this is about survival.

563
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 1: Like you deal drugs not because you've got to kick

564
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: out of dealing drugs. You do it because that's the

565
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: only employment available to you that has the kind of

566
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: income that are looking for. Unfortunately, or things other things

567
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 1: like that. Gang people don't want to be in gangs.

568
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 1: Like this is all these are all you know, fact,

569
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: these are all byproducts of this failure. Um. And I

570
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: just want to also point out that this study that

571
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: the legislator uh is using to say like, oh yeah

572
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 1: look check this out, like you know, people who have

573
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,359
Speaker 1: been to France and college, you know, murder less. Uh.

574
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 1: It was done by the National Police Foundation, which I

575
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: just want to point out that they love community policing

576
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 1: like solutions, and they love putting forward the broken window

577
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 1: policing strategy, which is totally fucked up and completely wrong

578
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: and backwards and biased. So it's already like you know,

579
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 1: it's we're we have an imperfect thing, drawing from an

580
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,800
Speaker 1: imperfect place, trying to you know, be presented as you know,

581
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: meaningful change. Uh. So it's just I think, just well,

582
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 1: we will continue to see things like this that look

583
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 1: good and are good, but I think are avoiding what

584
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,839
Speaker 1: all the outcries were from the public over this last year,

585
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 1: over what is necessary to change the relationship between the

586
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: community and law enforcement. Yeah yeah, I mean, I you know,

587
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 1: I grew up in in the city of Chicago. What's

588
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,320
Speaker 1: Chicago public schools? Very diverse schools and all that, and

589
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,400
Speaker 1: I I can't tell you enough. I mean, there are

590
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 1: people who I've met and who I've known a little

591
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,799
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, I'm becoming a cop. In my head,

592
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,399
Speaker 1: I'm like, they're letting you become a cop, right, They're

593
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 1: they're allowing, and I'm like, I'm like what, And so

594
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: I don't. It's like there's so much about character and

595
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 1: personality that matters, I think with becoming a cop that

596
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:39,240
Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of thing you could create

597
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 1: to figure that out of how you get the best

598
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: character and personality to become a cop, because it's it's

599
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 1: it's it's a humanity job. It's dealing with people. It's

600
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 1: having empathy for people, Like you need to have empathy

601
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,240
Speaker 1: for people. You need to want to work for people.

602
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 1: I think even to your point about like the character

603
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: that of you know, of the kinds of officers that

604
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: need to be out there on street is I think

605
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 1: you start that by just having like reinforcing the fucking

606
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 1: rules so the ones who don't act with humanity in

607
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 1: mind are quickly just booted the funk out and it's

608
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 1: made known to people. It's like, yo, yea, this isn't

609
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 1: the place, like if you want to funk around and

610
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: do that go to Florida or whatever fucking other you know,

611
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,319
Speaker 1: police department. But I think for police departments this whole

612
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,760
Speaker 1: idea of like, well, a couple of bad apples or whatever.

613
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 1: It's like, well, then tossed out all the fucking bad

614
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 1: apples then and then see what you're left with and

615
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 1: then figure out what the real problem is. But they're like,

616
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,479
Speaker 1: there's no even sort of the energy for that isn't

617
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 1: even there. So we get all these sort of like

618
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 1: half measures that have the like on paper are police reforms.

619
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:47,399
Speaker 1: But we are we are well, and we are way

620
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 1: past the time for these small things like those things

621
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 1: should happen sixty years ago if you want to like

622
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: start that little incremental process. But now we're looking at

623
00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 1: the situation and we need, you know, we need to extinguish. Yeah,

624
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,879
Speaker 1: I mean, the more you know about history, like that's

625
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: that seems to be something that like the like, it's

626
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 1: not just that black communities are abandoned, it's that they're

627
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 1: actively imprisoned through redlining in communities where the you know,

628
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 1: official government policy is to deprive them of resources and

629
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 1: then they're only interaction with the state. Like that ten

630
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 1: year old who's riding by on his bike. Is only

631
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 1: interaction with the state is violent racist police, Like it's

632
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,720
Speaker 1: it's not a problem that can be addressed through incremental change.

633
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about the pandemic. What's going on

634
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 1: with the vaccines? The UK started giving out the vaccines

635
00:38:54,040 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 1: and we get to see people get yeah, there's it's sick, dude,

636
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: we're getting vaxed. So where did they specifically choose someone

637
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 1: named William Shakespeare, like for for the purposes of just

638
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,800
Speaker 1: like good good marketing. They're like, guys, Bill Shakespeare is

639
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 1: getting the vaccine, y'all, come on, UK, where are you

640
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 1: at it? Just you know, it began with like some

641
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: elderly people and yes, they're just happened to be this

642
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: eight year old man legal name William Shakespeare who got

643
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 1: vaccinated on Tuesday. And I think that's been getting a

644
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 1: lot of attention. I think, ay, just this story because

645
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: like we're seeing like massive rollout of immunization programs happening,

646
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 1: and like that's I think I think that most like

647
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 1: oh fuck, hope on some level please now soon. Um

648
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 1: So because of that, they're getting a little more attention here.

649
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: And then the story within this area that got the

650
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 1: like the first rollout of vaccines in the UK, you

651
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,320
Speaker 1: got an old guy named Bill Shakespeare. The literally the

652
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 1: first person and or technically the person who first got

653
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,399
Speaker 1: it is a ninety year old this nine year old woman.

654
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,720
Speaker 1: But I think Bill Shakespeare is just getting the shine

655
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,720
Speaker 1: because of the name um in the in the difference

656
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,320
Speaker 1: in photos like the photo of I posted in the

657
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: dock of like Bill Shakespeare. He's very like stoic and

658
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 1: he's like, I'm getting vaccinated. And the woman who is

659
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 1: actually the first person to get it, she looks like

660
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,919
Speaker 1: god funk at all. Like her energy is like she's

661
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 1: wearing a mask. She's got like a cheery Christmas shirt on,

662
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 1: but her face is like says, this is such a

663
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 1: fucked up year, even though I'm getting vaccinated. I feel

664
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 1: like her image really sums up like where people are

665
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: where it's like, yeah, this good things happening, I guess,

666
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: but like I'm I'm fucked inside from the last nine months.

667
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: Also such a perfect encapsulation of what we see with

668
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 1: the old white guy, or just the white guy not

669
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 1: wearing a mask. Uh, he's just like why would I

670
00:40:56,520 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 1: of course, yeah, but I'm vaccinated right, Um Yeah, I

671
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,480
Speaker 1: mean it's nice to see that this happening. Like it's

672
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,239
Speaker 1: weird how I'm getting a secondary high right yo. Yo,

673
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 1: the vaccine, Yo, they're getting it over there. But I

674
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 1: don't know if like we're after hearing that Trump turned

675
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: down for like the opportunity to buy more vaccines from Fiser,

676
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh fuck, so that was over the summer

677
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: before we knew. It was like, hey, things are promising,

678
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 1: let's buy some Let's buy some of these these vaccines.

679
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,839
Speaker 1: And he was like, nah, yeah, well I don't think

680
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,000
Speaker 1: it's fiscal restraint more than his just like I don't

681
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,839
Speaker 1: know if I who gives this ship. It's it's it's

682
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 1: not real, but yeah, this is. But seeing this happen,

683
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,399
Speaker 1: I think it should bring great joy to at least

684
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,359
Speaker 1: the people of the UK and then whenever the funk

685
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 1: it happens in the US. There was a super producer

686
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 1: and sent around like a link to be like figure

687
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 1: out your place in line for the COVID vaccine in America,

688
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 1: like based on like the county you live in, in

689
00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,879
Speaker 1: your age, and I'm it's it's gonna be a while

690
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: before I get to the top of that list. Yeah,

691
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 1: but you're right though, it is nice. It is that. Uh.

692
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,240
Speaker 1: I think it's that light at the end of the tunnel.

693
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 1: I think some people are starting to think that tunnels

694
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 1: like really short. I'm like, no, we still got a

695
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 1: ways to go, you know, but there is one from

696
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 1: the darkness to light. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, it's not like yo,

697
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 1: I can I can make out a tree in the

698
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 1: tunnel's mouth. It's like it's a pinhole. Yeah, a couple

699
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 1: of times. Yeah, we got Yeah. I mean we're seeing

700
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:35,840
Speaker 1: just steady increases in the number of people who feel,

701
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 1: you know, willing to get vaccinated, who are going to

702
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 1: be who think they'll be willing to get vaccinated. Uh.

703
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:48,279
Speaker 1: The numbers were very discouraging earlier in the vaccine or

704
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 1: in the pandemic there I forget. I think back in

705
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:55,359
Speaker 1: September it was about fifty percent of Americans said they

706
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: were down to get the vaccine, and now that numbers

707
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:02,320
Speaker 1: up to sixty three. Uh so, yeah, it makes a

708
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: difference when I wonder how much of it has to

709
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 1: do with Trump losing two that, like in general, they're like, well,

710
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 1: if you're asking me in this administration in this context,

711
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 1: I'm not really but the number started going up in October.

712
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,359
Speaker 1: So I don't. It seems like it's a It could

713
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 1: be many different things. But in terms of Democrats, they

714
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: said SI said they would be open to it in

715
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 1: September and now it's at seventy. UM. When it comes

716
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 1: to independence, just over sixty of Independence say they would

717
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 1: be willing to get it, and fifty percent of Republicans

718
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 1: reported that they were willing to be vaccinated and that

719
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 1: hasn't changed. So I don't like if Trump is, I don't.

720
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,200
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out what their logic is that

721
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,160
Speaker 1: if it was Trump's they were still at fifty because

722
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 1: all of the misinformation has themselves fucked up that even

723
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: if it was their d your leader being like, here's

724
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:06,399
Speaker 1: your vaccine, they're still like, I don't know. Meanwhile, there's

725
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,960
Speaker 1: movement on the other side being like yes, please, like

726
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 1: we need health, we need safety. I think wondering too, Sorry,

727
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: keep going. I was just I think I think his

728
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,920
Speaker 1: leadership has just been so like this seems pretty intuitive

729
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 1: to me that that as you know, the person who's

730
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,880
Speaker 1: in charge, or as there's even light at the end

731
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,920
Speaker 1: of the tunnel, as like the media seemed to come

732
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,400
Speaker 1: around to the fact that he was losing the election,

733
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:36,839
Speaker 1: like I feel like and as the you know, vaccine

734
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 1: and the pandemic response got dissociated from his administration, but

735
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:48,680
Speaker 1: I mean his his leadership has been you know, undeniably bad.

736
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:52,919
Speaker 1: So like the idea when when you're at first associating

737
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 1: it with a world in which he is the person

738
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: who is like leading the charge versus like a world

739
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,440
Speaker 1: where he might not be, I can fully understand that

740
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 1: that shift. Hmm. I wonder too though, like this is

741
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 1: maybe this is like an off ramp from the main topic.

742
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 1: But this whole like disinformation thing is So did you

743
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:19,800
Speaker 1: guys read the talking to strangers by any chance? But Gladwell,

744
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:24,360
Speaker 1: there was this, uh, there's this interesting portion of the

745
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:28,040
Speaker 1: book that talks about like that outlier, like everybody in

746
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 1: society can say, let's you know, forty years ago, let's

747
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 1: say of people say yeah, I'd take a vaccine. I'm

748
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,360
Speaker 1: all four vaccine, that's the science. I support it. And

749
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 1: then you have one person who's like, now I'm going

750
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 1: to question this a little bit. I'm gonna go on

751
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,759
Speaker 1: the other side of it. You know, what, what can

752
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:46,400
Speaker 1: does a vaccine due to your body? Do we know

753
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 1: the long term effects? All these things right, and you

754
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 1: have that one person, that outlier, and he talks about

755
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 1: how it's always important to have, you know, at least

756
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,279
Speaker 1: one person who kind of goes against the majority to

757
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,719
Speaker 1: kind of just question things right. But then he talks

758
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:03,000
Speaker 1: about what happens if everybody starts to become that kind

759
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:07,879
Speaker 1: of outlier, idealist and personality who's questioning everything, you don't

760
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 1: you have a society that can't function because everybody's just

761
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,840
Speaker 1: like going off the walls with their ideas and what

762
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 1: they believe in. And I feel like that's kind of

763
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,240
Speaker 1: what he talked about is kind of what's been happening

764
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 1: with social media and this mass amount of disinformation and

765
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: people not people find it hard to I think, believe

766
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,800
Speaker 1: anything at this point, and I think some people have

767
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,240
Speaker 1: a hard time believing Bolsa either side of the yell.

768
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 1: Then you have people like Jake Paul who then are like, yeah,

769
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 1: of news is fake. Like no matter who you're getting

770
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:42,759
Speaker 1: here from, you're like, oh wow, I'm glad you have

771
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:46,040
Speaker 1: the eye for that two of real news. And it's

772
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,920
Speaker 1: twenty million people right who follow this guy and and

773
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 1: and listen to that platform, which just scary. So it's

774
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:54,799
Speaker 1: like is this Are we on this like indefinite path

775
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: of disinformation? How do we does this? Does this cease

776
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 1: to exist as this administration slowly becomes a ghost. And

777
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:04,840
Speaker 1: I think I'll always just point to the fact that, like,

778
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,840
Speaker 1: until we take care of people's needs, they're gonna be

779
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:11,640
Speaker 1: willing to believe whatever explanation someone just slightly a few

780
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,319
Speaker 1: ticks smarter than them is going to offer them. Um.

781
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 1: And I don't think like even if we do get

782
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:18,879
Speaker 1: a hold of it, like if you don't get people

783
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,120
Speaker 1: like like to work or like the ability to support

784
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 1: their families or to have a life and to have

785
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,320
Speaker 1: health care or an education, I think like that's probably

786
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 1: gonna be the biggest tool to melt away like the

787
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 1: you know, that sort of mentality of being so contrarian

788
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 1: to like, you know, or feed these fires of misinformation. Um.

789
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know, it's it's I think we're

790
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 1: experiencing like we're just at the beginning of it, Like

791
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,279
Speaker 1: we're just at that stage where everyone's like, I think

792
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 1: it's a problem. Yeah, and that's where we're a yeah, yeah,

793
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,680
Speaker 1: crazy man. The And I think also we need to

794
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,440
Speaker 1: figure out what we're going to do with regards to

795
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:02,799
Speaker 1: social media idea and how that is policed, but at

796
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 1: all I don't know a good solution to that, because

797
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 1: they're good value, valuable things that it brings in also

798
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:16,480
Speaker 1: just nightmarish what happens if you have no replies, no arties,

799
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:20,960
Speaker 1: no likes on Twitter. Well, it's also like the level

800
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:25,279
Speaker 1: of control that we're asking the social media networks to

801
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: exercise is not when you look at like the story

802
00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:35,719
Speaker 1: about how the Facebook spreading misinformation that led to like

803
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:40,000
Speaker 1: race riots that killed thousands of people, Like the that

804
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,799
Speaker 1: was a story that was on their radar, and they

805
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:47,640
Speaker 1: just didn't do the necessary things to like monitor they're

806
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:51,800
Speaker 1: not they didn't create like the team that was necessary.

807
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 1: It's just there's no incentive. So I guess like one

808
00:48:55,600 --> 00:49:00,080
Speaker 1: answer would be that like just trying would be a

809
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,399
Speaker 1: good first step, because we haven't even tried. It has

810
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 1: just been a complete fucking free for all in terms

811
00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 1: of like letting these uh networks operators just ad networks

812
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 1: who are only there to monetize the interactions and have

813
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 1: no actual responsibilities. All right, let's take a quick break

814
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:34,080
Speaker 1: and we'll be right back, and we're back. What one

815
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 1: thing that I've noticed is there's been a flurry of articles.

816
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:38,759
Speaker 1: We've been talking on the show for a while now

817
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:46,520
Speaker 1: about how the it's hard to take the Trump administration, uh,

818
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:51,240
Speaker 1: their attempt at, you know, overturning the election seriously because

819
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:56,319
Speaker 1: of just how surface level farcical it is um at

820
00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:59,719
Speaker 1: every turn. Um. But there does seem to be you know,

821
00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 1: we like when you describe in broad and general terms

822
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:08,239
Speaker 1: what they're trying to do, it's actually very scary. So

823
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,319
Speaker 1: we were kind of wrestling with that over the past

824
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:12,759
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and the mainstream media seems to be

825
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:17,560
Speaker 1: at least having the conversation about how to you know,

826
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:22,359
Speaker 1: take some of the stuff seriously. Hopefully not too late

827
00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 1: that they're having this conversation, but like there there's a

828
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 1: bunch of articles on whether it can be called a

829
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:32,239
Speaker 1: coup or not because it's so incompetent, Like is does

830
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 1: it belong in that category of attempts that overthrown government.

831
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:41,320
Speaker 1: I don't think style treatment of talking about this is

832
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,200
Speaker 1: going to help. It's like, can he even call it

833
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:45,839
Speaker 1: a coup? Like really, you know, like it's like, um,

834
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:50,839
Speaker 1: let's not laugh at like the smoldering fire in the corner. Yeah,

835
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 1: I mean, so recently, yesterday, the Arizona Republican Party at

836
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:01,440
Speaker 1: easy gop so, the actual you know Twitter handle of

837
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:05,279
Speaker 1: the Arizona Republican Party asked their followers if they were

838
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:09,160
Speaker 1: willing to die for the cause of stopping the steel

839
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: in a retweet of an anti Semitic right wing extremist

840
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 1: who tweeted, I am willing to give my life for

841
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:21,360
Speaker 1: this fight, and there's on a Republican Party retweet and

842
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:26,319
Speaker 1: said he is are you? Um is the gatorad commercial? Yeah,

843
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 1: exac like what um So? They took that down when

844
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:38,759
Speaker 1: it started getting some backlash. Uh. And then immediately after

845
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 1: posted a tweet that was a picture from the movie

846
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:47,200
Speaker 1: Rambo with Rambo pointing an arrow point blank at somebody's

847
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 1: like face, like the tip of the arrows in the

848
00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:52,840
Speaker 1: person's face and he's pulling it back, getting ready to

849
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:55,399
Speaker 1: just do a point blank headshot with an arrow, bow

850
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: and arrow and says uh. And the tweet is in quotes,

851
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 1: this is what we do who we are live for

852
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:06,000
Speaker 1: nothing or die for something American flag again from the

853
00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 1: official Arizona Republican Party. Um, this is how like extremist

854
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:14,320
Speaker 1: groups also recruit martyrs like people. It's the same language

855
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 1: of like die for this, you down to die for this,

856
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 1: and I mean i'd luckily, like I mean somewhat luckily,

857
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:26,400
Speaker 1: Like a lot of other Republicans are pushing back on

858
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 1: these tweets, which is what when they were getting ratio,

859
00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:31,719
Speaker 1: They're like, Okay, maybe a bad idea, but nonetheless that's

860
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,680
Speaker 1: still creating this environment still exists. Like people showed up

861
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,480
Speaker 1: to the Michigan Secretary of State's house. Yeah, I mean

862
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 1: protesting on this stop the steel nonsense with weapons while

863
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 1: she was trying to decorate her house for Christmas, or

864
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:52,239
Speaker 1: a real war on Christmas moment. Uh, will not get

865
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:56,720
Speaker 1: covered by Fox, i'd imagine. So just on a longer

866
00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 1: term and like more circumspect view, you know, I've also

867
00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:04,520
Speaker 1: seen the response even from like people who I think

868
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 1: are smart on the left, who it just seems like

869
00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,800
Speaker 1: from a posturing perspective, don't want to seem like they're

870
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 1: the boy who cried Wolf, or alternately just want to

871
00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:18,400
Speaker 1: seem like cool enough and like worldly enough to be

872
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 1: like this isn't a coup. You think this is a coup,

873
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,920
Speaker 1: This is nothing like are idiots? You should have studied

874
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:30,719
Speaker 1: Barcelona in me right stuff? Yeah, but this writer in

875
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:36,439
Speaker 1: the Atlantic who's a popular, really talented academic name named

876
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 1: zep tufik Chi wrote, So, she grew up in uh Turkey,

877
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:48,600
Speaker 1: and she writes about how basically like if you are

878
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 1: from a place where coups are common, Um, this definitely

879
00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 1: feels like a coup, and the question of whether it

880
00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:01,880
Speaker 1: should be called a coup seems somewhat silly and beside

881
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:05,800
Speaker 1: the point. And it's more important to just talk about

882
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:11,160
Speaker 1: in specific terms, like what is actually happening, because these

883
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:15,279
Speaker 1: are all norms that are being toppled that make it

884
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:19,400
Speaker 1: so that you can do a coup with impunity. Like

885
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:24,200
Speaker 1: just because this particular time is incompetent um, it does

886
00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 1: not mean that we should be ignoring. Like at one

887
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:34,120
Speaker 1: point she uh just lays out all the things that

888
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 1: are happening. Um, and you know, viewed from the perspective

889
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 1: of someone who grew up at the whims of you know,

890
00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:46,120
Speaker 1: five major coups throughout her lifetime, pants a pretty stark

891
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 1: picture like that. The president has repeatedly and baselessly claimed

892
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,960
Speaker 1: the election was stolen and continues to do so daily,

893
00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:56,960
Speaker 1: effectively charging the election officers around the country being involved

894
00:54:57,000 --> 00:54:59,600
Speaker 1: in a dangerous conspiracy. The president is key. Allies have

895
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,880
Speaker 1: repeated really called for Republican state legislators to steal the

896
00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:05,759
Speaker 1: election for him. The president, who has the power to

897
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:10,560
Speaker 1: appoint judges, is asking for Supreme Court nominees to UH

898
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:14,480
Speaker 1: or Supreme Court to steal the election for him UH

899
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,320
Speaker 1: and has asked the court to throw out valid votes.

900
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:22,440
Speaker 1: Right after the election, a legal advisor to the president stated,

901
00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:25,480
Speaker 1: we're waiting for the Supreme Court to do something and

902
00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:30,320
Speaker 1: hopefully Amy Comy Barrett will come through. High profile allies

903
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:35,680
Speaker 1: of his are physically intimidating George's Republican government or governor

904
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:40,759
Speaker 1: for backing the actual vote count, amplified messages that call

905
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:43,440
Speaker 1: for people to fight back hard, and then his election

906
00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 1: lawyer said that the entire election and all swing states

907
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:52,120
Speaker 1: should be overturned, like it's just yeah, it's all there, yeah,

908
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:57,400
Speaker 1: And then they said that Christopher Crebs uh should should

909
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:02,000
Speaker 1: be shot at dawn, like that's all the sort of

910
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 1: thing that you would have in a coup. It's just

911
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:10,279
Speaker 1: that because the president didn't do the planning necessary and

912
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 1: the political maneuvering necessary, he isn't capable of doing it

913
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:18,239
Speaker 1: like his team. They're saying like Basically, the incompetence of

914
00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:21,440
Speaker 1: the whole coup is why people aren't stating that this

915
00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:24,080
Speaker 1: is a coup. It's like this, it's like that's it's

916
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:27,520
Speaker 1: like you know, fucking crocodile Dundee ship where by trying

917
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 1: to rob you with a knife and you're like, that's

918
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:33,120
Speaker 1: not a knife v season knife and you're like you're

919
00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:36,480
Speaker 1: you're laughing off. You're the transgressor because the attempt is

920
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:38,520
Speaker 1: so whacked and you're like, I'm gonna call the cops

921
00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 1: on that idiot that would and it's like the mentality

922
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:44,440
Speaker 1: when it's like, well, hold on, that wasn't attempted robbery,

923
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:47,880
Speaker 1: So really, if we won't put this on paper, this

924
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:51,279
Speaker 1: motherfucker attempted to rob you. To be clear, that is

925
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 1: not an advisable way to deal with a mugging because

926
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,520
Speaker 1: they could just go and get a gun, right, but

927
00:56:57,600 --> 00:56:59,920
Speaker 1: either way, But to that point is maybe some other

928
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:02,040
Speaker 1: goon saw them be like okay, so you can't stick

929
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:04,359
Speaker 1: them up with that knife. Okay, so I need something

930
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 1: bigger than that knife, and you're setting it like again,

931
00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 1: were the real thing here is also in her article

932
00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,600
Speaker 1: is talking about you know, treat I think what was

933
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:15,279
Speaker 1: that I put the quote at the bottom she like,

934
00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:17,200
Speaker 1: this is your first coup. If you want to be

935
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:20,680
Speaker 1: sure that it's your last, exactly like treat this like

936
00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:25,040
Speaker 1: a robbery and fucking golf and and and bring the law,

937
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:27,280
Speaker 1: bring them to just like you can't do this ship.

938
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:29,400
Speaker 1: And I think that's why there's this other debate that's

939
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: also brewing, is what is Joe Biden going to do

940
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 1: when he becomes the president because this like hand holdie, well,

941
00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:39,680
Speaker 1: we don't want to like we want to heal the country.

942
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 1: That's not healing my man. That is not going to

943
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,480
Speaker 1: be healing That is saying yo, y'all can get away

944
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 1: with this ship if you do it slicker, and that

945
00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:49,640
Speaker 1: is a terror, like you have to we have to

946
00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:53,840
Speaker 1: actually put an end to it by actually exercising or whatever,

947
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 1: using the legal system, justice system to try and hold

948
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:01,520
Speaker 1: these people to account. But I I seriously doubt that

949
00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 1: that would ever happen because you know, Democrats are the

950
00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:07,800
Speaker 1: party of like where this is a smoke free environment,

951
00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:09,560
Speaker 1: even if the smoke is necessary for the good of

952
00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:12,680
Speaker 1: the country and the you know, she talks about how

953
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:16,440
Speaker 1: one of the coups that overthrew her government and that

954
00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:20,479
Speaker 1: was very dangerous and led to hundreds of people being

955
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 1: tortured to death. Was like basically the remnants or the

956
00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:29,680
Speaker 1: aftershock of an original coup that was laughed out of

957
00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:32,680
Speaker 1: the building, like like this one is being like it

958
00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:36,840
Speaker 1: was not seen as serious. And she also points to

959
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:42,960
Speaker 1: Napoleon Bonaparte, the third Napoleon bonapartes I guess grandson like

960
00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 1: did did a coup that was like called beyond comedy

961
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:50,440
Speaker 1: by uh the French press, and then eventually like ten

962
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:54,120
Speaker 1: years later overthrew the government and remade it in his

963
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:58,480
Speaker 1: image for you know, thirty years and completely altered the

964
00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:02,960
Speaker 1: course of history after or unattempted coup that was absurd

965
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 1: and hilarious. The wild thing is this isn't even hilarious,

966
00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:08,640
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like it's in a way

967
00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:12,120
Speaker 1: like sure, Rudy Giuliani sweating and black from his head

968
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:14,360
Speaker 1: and you know, smear and snot on his face and

969
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:17,840
Speaker 1: stuff like that, but like the but when you're looking

970
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 1: at it, it's truly like we're saying, like it's the

971
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:24,800
Speaker 1: fourth quarter for white supremacy as like a form of governance,

972
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 1: or there's attempts to try and fight fight back against it,

973
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,919
Speaker 1: and it's like they're not gonna fucking just lay down,

974
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:33,400
Speaker 1: Like the whole country was built on this. So there,

975
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:36,800
Speaker 1: I think it's it's it's a dangerous thing to like

976
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 1: I think on one level, like we laugh about it

977
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:40,320
Speaker 1: too on this show, but that's more of like out

978
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:43,880
Speaker 1: of existential dread, but at the same time wanting to

979
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:45,560
Speaker 1: keep an eye on this ship because I think we

980
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,800
Speaker 1: as we talk about it, you there will always be

981
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:52,760
Speaker 1: somebody who's trying to improve upon the last person's contribution

982
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 1: in like every field, you know, like there is somebody

983
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 1: who's knuckling up, like see Trump did it wrong this way,

984
00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:01,120
Speaker 1: Like if you're gonna bring in a ethno state, it

985
01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:02,800
Speaker 1: has to happen this way. And that that that that

986
01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:05,400
Speaker 1: that that like there are people whose gears are moving

987
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,560
Speaker 1: to and I think that's why it's it's it's important

988
01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:10,520
Speaker 1: to not to also have the mindset that this doesn't

989
01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:14,400
Speaker 1: it's not over January twenty, like this is this is

990
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,240
Speaker 1: the beginning of the new the next phase of whatever

991
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:20,720
Speaker 1: this country's history is, and it's going it's pivotal, right.

992
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,640
Speaker 1: I also think too, in uh, just America in general,

993
01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:26,480
Speaker 1: of American people and even I think to an extent.

994
01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,800
Speaker 1: I'm I've certainly thought this way. Sometimes. I think there's

995
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:33,720
Speaker 1: like disillusionment of like, oh, that wouldn't happen in America

996
01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:36,840
Speaker 1: though like Turkey, you know, tanks like running over civilians

997
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:40,800
Speaker 1: and helicopters shooting at buildings like that, that wouldn't happen here,

998
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,160
Speaker 1: That could never happen here, And I think I think

999
01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 1: it's important to keep in mind that that absolutely could

1000
01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:47,919
Speaker 1: happen here. I mean, I to be honest, I didn't

1001
01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:50,120
Speaker 1: even I used to think a coup is only defined

1002
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:56,360
Speaker 1: as uh like a general military. Yeah, I didn't even know. Yeah,

1003
01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,600
Speaker 1: I had no idea that it could be. I mean,

1004
01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:00,480
Speaker 1: and it totally makes sense obviously that it can be

1005
01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:04,320
Speaker 1: defined as an administration just kind of refusing to down

1006
01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 1: there's no it's it's wild because that specific definition, and

1007
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 1: like the it really seems strange that there would be

1008
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:15,560
Speaker 1: so much energy on being like this isn't a coup

1009
01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:18,040
Speaker 1: and defining what a coup is and like making sure

1010
01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:21,760
Speaker 1: that uh, something that isn't that like doesn't get because

1011
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:24,240
Speaker 1: there's been like tons of articles. There's a Washington Post

1012
01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:27,160
Speaker 1: op ed that is like all about how this isn't

1013
01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:29,560
Speaker 1: a coup and you shouldn't call it a coup um.

1014
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:32,640
Speaker 1: But like the the US government has been subject to

1015
01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:36,600
Speaker 1: coup's from like within, from the CIA, Like you know,

1016
01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:39,880
Speaker 1: you have these governments within the government that are taking over,

1017
01:01:40,560 --> 01:01:45,880
Speaker 1: uh doing underhanded black state, black ops ship and you know,

1018
01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:48,760
Speaker 1: because we're not willing to like when you actually read

1019
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 1: the history of these things, uh, it's like, oh, yeah,

1020
01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,440
Speaker 1: they created the reality that we grew up in to

1021
01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:59,840
Speaker 1: favor them. But like it's that there's a whole of

1022
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:04,840
Speaker 1: their history of like uh things that just we didn't

1023
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 1: view as a coupe because it was happening under the surface. Yeah, again,

1024
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:12,840
Speaker 1: it's a coup on paper, so treat it like you know,

1025
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:16,760
Speaker 1: And I think that's why the next administration and even

1026
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:20,200
Speaker 1: now they need to be talking like this. But again

1027
01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:23,440
Speaker 1: it's too spicy. It's it's okay for the people on

1028
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 1: the right to be calling for whatever the funk they're doing,

1029
01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:30,840
Speaker 1: but it's but it's like just a bridge slightly too

1030
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:34,040
Speaker 1: far for democratic democratic leadership to be like they are

1031
01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:36,520
Speaker 1: attempting at coup. I don't know, I don't care what

1032
01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:38,760
Speaker 1: they want to call it. This is straight horse shit.

1033
01:02:39,520 --> 01:02:41,840
Speaker 1: But it's more just like, well, we'll let the courts

1034
01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:45,800
Speaker 1: handling him. That was a nice try. Um, finally, I

1035
01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:49,520
Speaker 1: want to talk about a story that would have I

1036
01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:53,200
Speaker 1: don't know it's it seems like it's way too important

1037
01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 1: to cover in three minutes, which we're going to try

1038
01:02:55,040 --> 01:03:00,680
Speaker 1: and do. But the former head of Israel's uh what

1039
01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:05,120
Speaker 1: what's his official title? He ran and he ran into program.

1040
01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:09,680
Speaker 1: He was the program. Like there's no, he's not some

1041
01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 1: guy with a cool Twitter handle that you know bb

1042
01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 1: Net and Yahoo like Fox with It's like, you know,

1043
01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:17,840
Speaker 1: he's he's I think he was running it from like

1044
01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:22,200
Speaker 1: the eighties to like or something like that. And but

1045
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:25,880
Speaker 1: for a context, he's saying, if I had come up

1046
01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:28,760
Speaker 1: with what I'm saying today five years ago, and we'll

1047
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:31,320
Speaker 1: get to what he's saying, I would have been hospitalized.

1048
01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:34,600
Speaker 1: Wherever I've gone with this, in academia, they've said the

1049
01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:38,320
Speaker 1: man has lost his mind. Today they're already talking differently.

1050
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:42,240
Speaker 1: I have nothing to lose. I've received my degrees and awards.

1051
01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:46,280
Speaker 1: I'm respecting universities abroad where the trend is also changing.

1052
01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 1: That trend he says that, uh, we have made alien contact,

1053
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:56,320
Speaker 1: the US government and Israel in particular, that we are

1054
01:03:56,480 --> 01:04:00,720
Speaker 1: in communication and in fact, in a legal contract with

1055
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:05,920
Speaker 1: the extraterrestrials. Um. I mean, I'm glad of one of

1056
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:10,640
Speaker 1: his quotes. I'm glad that the Aliens respect contract law.

1057
01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:14,520
Speaker 1: That's a good sign. He said, quote, there's an agreement

1058
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:18,160
Speaker 1: between the US government and the Aliens. They signed a

1059
01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:22,840
Speaker 1: contract with us to do experiments here. They too are

1060
01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:27,280
Speaker 1: researching and trying to understand the whole fabric of the universe,

1061
01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:33,640
Speaker 1: and they want us as helpers. Um. I I just

1062
01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 1: the signed a contract is where it goes a little

1063
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:41,160
Speaker 1: too far. I was on board agreement maybe you know

1064
01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:44,560
Speaker 1: contract where they were they redlining? Did they get the

1065
01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:48,480
Speaker 1: lawyers involved? Are the Are the Aliens their own legal counsel?

1066
01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 1: They're like, sorry, this this is actually a poison pill

1067
01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:53,240
Speaker 1: in this deal. We will not do it if it's

1068
01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:56,840
Speaker 1: if it's contained in the contract language. I don't, um,

1069
01:04:57,480 --> 01:04:59,920
Speaker 1: but they're saying one of the first hubs of cooperation

1070
01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:04,080
Speaker 1: is a base on Mars, where, by the way, astronauts

1071
01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:08,480
Speaker 1: have already set foot, American astronauts, and the basis underground.

1072
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:13,240
Speaker 1: That's why you can't see it. I love Aliens. Two allions.

1073
01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:16,680
Speaker 1: My uncle has a ten telescope in New Hampshire and

1074
01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:19,320
Speaker 1: he was showing me Jupiter up close. I've I've said

1075
01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:21,240
Speaker 1: this before, I'll say it again. If I have a family,

1076
01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:23,800
Speaker 1: six kids, I need to be there for my family,

1077
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:26,080
Speaker 1: and aliens come to me and say, hey, we'll take

1078
01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:27,720
Speaker 1: you with us. You can never come back here see

1079
01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:29,640
Speaker 1: anybody again, but you'll get to see the galaxy for

1080
01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:33,760
Speaker 1: what it is. I'd be like, let's go. I would go, okay,

1081
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,240
Speaker 1: I want to prolog with that. But I will say

1082
01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:39,640
Speaker 1: this guy lost me when he plugged his book. He's

1083
01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:42,880
Speaker 1: coming out, he's got coming out, and that's where he

1084
01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:47,200
Speaker 1: lost me. You know, I know it. And even in

1085
01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:49,360
Speaker 1: a way though it's like you don't want this guy's

1086
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:51,800
Speaker 1: book though, you know, even like as a thing off,

1087
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:53,680
Speaker 1: like if he was talking that real ship, he's like,

1088
01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:56,480
Speaker 1: you know, it's so complex, like to say it used

1089
01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:59,840
Speaker 1: the word agreement would completely betray the forms of communication

1090
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,000
Speaker 1: these life forms used. I would be like, whoa, okay,

1091
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,040
Speaker 1: But when you're treating it like a fucking like just

1092
01:06:06,440 --> 01:06:09,320
Speaker 1: you know a funny comedy film where they was like, hey,

1093
01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:15,960
Speaker 1: let's collab on some research, fam like okay, and then

1094
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:19,040
Speaker 1: even like his his explanation, it's like what what, where

1095
01:06:19,160 --> 01:06:22,320
Speaker 1: y'all been, Where the aliens been? What's going on? He

1096
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:24,960
Speaker 1: mentioned Trump in there too. Yeah, he did say that

1097
01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:28,040
Speaker 1: Trump was on the verge of revealing all of this

1098
01:06:28,280 --> 01:06:31,920
Speaker 1: path Aliens in the Galactic Federation, which I think is

1099
01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:36,200
Speaker 1: literally a term from Star Trek, but maybe not. Aliens

1100
01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:39,040
Speaker 1: and the Galactic Federation are saying, wait, let everyone calm

1101
01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:41,880
Speaker 1: down first. They they don't want to start mass hysteria.

1102
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:44,920
Speaker 1: They want to first make us saying and understanding. So

1103
01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:49,320
Speaker 1: here's why, Like, obviously I want to believe, and I'm

1104
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:53,200
Speaker 1: going to always error on the side of yeah, this

1105
01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:57,400
Speaker 1: could be possible. The thing about the contract. So one

1106
01:06:57,440 --> 01:07:00,240
Speaker 1: of my theories on aliens is that they might end

1107
01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:03,200
Speaker 1: up being a lot more similar to us than we

1108
01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:07,680
Speaker 1: expect them to be because of parallel evolution and the

1109
01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:12,000
Speaker 1: fact that like when you look in Australia at like

1110
01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:16,000
Speaker 1: the wildlife that evolved there, and it like looks almost

1111
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:21,360
Speaker 1: identical to wildlife that evolved independently in the US. It's

1112
01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:25,360
Speaker 1: like there, when you have the conditions of life in

1113
01:07:25,520 --> 01:07:29,880
Speaker 1: two different, seemingly different places, like they do end up

1114
01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:35,000
Speaker 1: cohering similarly. So I don't know, like, maybe maybe that

1115
01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:39,560
Speaker 1: is something that eventually always comes up and when when

1116
01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:42,880
Speaker 1: there's a civilization that has evolved to a certain point,

1117
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:45,040
Speaker 1: maybe they're like, well, you gotta have contracts, man, I

1118
01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:49,480
Speaker 1: mean otherwise and then nothing separates us from the single

1119
01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:52,920
Speaker 1: cell to organisms. Please, I didn't come all this way

1120
01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:55,800
Speaker 1: to not have the legal paperwork and to protect my

1121
01:07:56,000 --> 01:08:00,520
Speaker 1: interests in this agreement, Earthling. But I'll so just like

1122
01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:07,520
Speaker 1: picturing the process of getting from respected in academic circles

1123
01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:14,640
Speaker 1: has this hugely powerful uh career, and now what makes

1124
01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:19,600
Speaker 1: like just selling books just being like yeah, like it

1125
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:22,600
Speaker 1: just seems I don't know, I have I have a

1126
01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:28,879
Speaker 1: hard time imagining that evolution, like unless he was always

1127
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:32,920
Speaker 1: all along, like had some suspicion that there was alien contact,

1128
01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,200
Speaker 1: Like he just given his mouth shut because it's going

1129
01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:37,000
Speaker 1: to cost him his job all the time. They're like, dude,

1130
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:40,559
Speaker 1: you gotta knock that shut off, like like we're serious

1131
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:43,200
Speaker 1: scientists and he's just using like the same ship that

1132
01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:46,800
Speaker 1: UFO heads in the US used, Like I'm just saying

1133
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:51,840
Speaker 1: roswell though, dog look at this viral video, Dude, what

1134
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:54,080
Speaker 1: about that beam of light above tel Aviva just shot

1135
01:08:54,160 --> 01:08:56,200
Speaker 1: up in the sky? What was that? I have it

1136
01:08:56,240 --> 01:08:59,000
Speaker 1: from multiple angles. It's like that was doctored. We already

1137
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:02,120
Speaker 1: talked about this doctor alright, it did a great job

1138
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:03,800
Speaker 1: on it, you know, yeah, no, I mean it looks

1139
01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:06,559
Speaker 1: like it looks like I wonder if to like yeah,

1140
01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:08,400
Speaker 1: like at a certain point, you know, this is like

1141
01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:10,640
Speaker 1: his like breaking bad like kind of thing was like,

1142
01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:14,760
Speaker 1: fuck it, I got nothing on this alien ship and

1143
01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,160
Speaker 1: get a book deal and get my little check. So

1144
01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:20,360
Speaker 1: I can, you know, just buy my retirement cabin and

1145
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:23,680
Speaker 1: live life comfortably because my government pension is running out.

1146
01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:26,439
Speaker 1: So I gotta exploit that position to say some wild

1147
01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:29,400
Speaker 1: alien ship. I don't know that would be a smart

1148
01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:32,200
Speaker 1: move though, because instantly right like it's a it's this

1149
01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:36,120
Speaker 1: has been a global headline because of because of the

1150
01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:39,320
Speaker 1: position he helped. So it's like just if so if

1151
01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 1: you just have that former title to give you any authority,

1152
01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:45,240
Speaker 1: keep in mind, anybody in any position with authority, you

1153
01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:47,800
Speaker 1: can do this. Come out with some outlanders ship. That

1154
01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:51,040
Speaker 1: would just be like up end the general accepted knowledge

1155
01:09:51,080 --> 01:09:54,040
Speaker 1: of your industry, and people like what the formerhead of

1156
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:57,840
Speaker 1: what said? What but this huh? And then people will

1157
01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:00,439
Speaker 1: laugh you out, but you'll get your little shine. Yeah.

1158
01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:05,080
Speaker 1: So you're you're officially on this guy's uh lost it

1159
01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:08,439
Speaker 1: or is just trying to sell books ship, I don't know.

1160
01:10:08,680 --> 01:10:12,320
Speaker 1: I mean I like the energy. I love I love

1161
01:10:12,400 --> 01:10:15,680
Speaker 1: the energy of someone who's gonna like completely change the

1162
01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:18,120
Speaker 1: game on us like this and be like, no, y'all

1163
01:10:18,160 --> 01:10:23,799
Speaker 1: not listening. They have signed fucking contracts, okay. And Trump

1164
01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:26,760
Speaker 1: almost sucked it all up. And then the aliens were like, nah,

1165
01:10:26,840 --> 01:10:29,360
Speaker 1: found just dead that for a second because the people

1166
01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:32,080
Speaker 1: are not ready for us to do our grand reveal.

1167
01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:33,960
Speaker 1: So if you could just sit on that, we would

1168
01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:36,439
Speaker 1: appreciate that. And Donald Trump was like bet, and you

1169
01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:39,439
Speaker 1: know that's basically who our president is. He respects the

1170
01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:44,720
Speaker 1: you know, agency of these aliens to themselves. I just

1171
01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:48,080
Speaker 1: love it. It's like it's also tough down too, because

1172
01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:50,840
Speaker 1: we're we're like having this conversation in society right now

1173
01:10:50,880 --> 01:10:53,080
Speaker 1: about believing the scientists and buying any of these people.

1174
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:55,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, this guy is an academic, super respected. He

1175
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:57,320
Speaker 1: ran their space program, So this is somebody who we

1176
01:10:57,400 --> 01:11:02,240
Speaker 1: should buy into, right, Like we should say like I

1177
01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:04,000
Speaker 1: need like for something like this. It's like, yo, you

1178
01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:05,920
Speaker 1: need I need you to bring another few friends with you.

1179
01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:08,080
Speaker 1: The ratios aren't good here for a thing like this,

1180
01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:11,120
Speaker 1: I need better ratios. I need like five other people

1181
01:11:11,200 --> 01:11:13,400
Speaker 1: who like y'all can actually be like yo, yo, Okay,

1182
01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:16,080
Speaker 1: we're not going to tell y'all, but that one mission

1183
01:11:16,520 --> 01:11:19,280
Speaker 1: look into that, and then I would be like, oh oh,

1184
01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:24,760
Speaker 1: but if the aliens are out there trying to get

1185
01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:27,360
Speaker 1: us to be more reasonable, you know, I'm just saying,

1186
01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:29,720
Speaker 1: where did this vaccine come from? It's all of a

1187
01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:34,639
Speaker 1: sudden we got a vaccine this accurate or effective. Come on, dude,

1188
01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:37,400
Speaker 1: you think they aliens didn't give that to us? What then?

1189
01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:40,800
Speaker 1: Did you think I was talking about Operation Warp Speed.

1190
01:11:41,800 --> 01:11:44,600
Speaker 1: I was on the fucking USS Enterprise, motherfucker secure in

1191
01:11:44,640 --> 01:11:48,600
Speaker 1: the vaccine. There's no way he was down. I was

1192
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:52,880
Speaker 1: in the hospital. I was doing deals in fucking zebulon

1193
01:11:52,960 --> 01:11:56,120
Speaker 1: three six nine das Z. There's no way he'd be

1194
01:11:56,200 --> 01:12:00,160
Speaker 1: able to uh not brag about that ship I know,

1195
01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:06,240
Speaker 1: actually brokering this deal right, because he's gonna do. We've

1196
01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:09,040
Speaker 1: heard about his negotiating tactics. He's gonna be in. There's like,

1197
01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:11,960
Speaker 1: nice to meet you alien people. I'm surprisingly calm in

1198
01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:14,040
Speaker 1: this negotiation, but I just want to shut up by

1199
01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:20,639
Speaker 1: saying fuck you and he walks out. That's right, That's right. Ship.

1200
01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:23,559
Speaker 1: That is the main thing that keeps me from believing

1201
01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:25,800
Speaker 1: this is the idea that Trump would be able to,

1202
01:12:26,439 --> 01:12:29,800
Speaker 1: you know, put his own behind the greater good of

1203
01:12:30,400 --> 01:12:37,800
Speaker 1: the species relationship to our alien leaders. Um yeah, well, uh,

1204
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:43,000
Speaker 1: stay tuned, I guess also stay tuned to what Trump

1205
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:46,120
Speaker 1: has to say when he's out of office. Connor, it

1206
01:12:46,240 --> 01:12:49,280
Speaker 1: has been fun having you, ma'am. Where can people uh

1207
01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:55,120
Speaker 1: find you and follow you? Hey? Twitter or Instagram. I'm

1208
01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:57,800
Speaker 1: not super involved in Twitter, so it's you do need

1209
01:12:57,840 --> 01:12:59,920
Speaker 1: to follow me on Twitter. I'll just make my random

1210
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:03,240
Speaker 1: sports tweets that are useless. You can you can follow
