00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of the

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:08,559
Speaker 1: Weekly Zeitgeist. These are some of our favorite segments from

3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 1: this week, all edited together into one NonStop infotainment laugh stravaganza.

4
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:26,120
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, So, without further ado, here is the Weekly Zeitgeist. Robert, Oh,

5
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 1: I want to hear from you. What is something from

6
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 1: your search history that's revealing about who you are? How

7
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: to make dick candle? Nicey? How to make your own

8
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,319
Speaker 1: dick into a candle? Ho, that's the goal is how

9
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: to like how to like mold it in like this

10
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: put in the hole. It's been like a lot of

11
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 1: time with the doctors to be it's a favorite kind

12
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 1: of video. Yeah. Wait, so you're trying to make a

13
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: real penis impression? Taken any steps, but I was curious

14
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: about it, how it's even made, and so I've been

15
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: looking into the process. Did you see a penis candle

16
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, no, I can make one. It

17
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: was just an idea that sometimes when I'm trying to

18
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: fall asleep, that's usually when I do stuff when I

19
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: when I google things that aren't like specifically related to

20
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: my job, where it'll just be like I wondered, how

21
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 1: would you do that. It's like when I looked into

22
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: how to make liquor out of blood, Like, that's that's

23
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 1: what I google, like one thirty in the morning when

24
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: I'm trying to fall asleep, that you can make liquor

25
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: out of blood. Well, no, I was just I wanted

26
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: to know if you could. I found I found a

27
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,759
Speaker 1: discussion as to have it. You can, if you can

28
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 1: out of another human bodily function. You can absolutely make

29
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: liquor out of poop. You can make liquor out of

30
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: a lot of things. Yeah, So hey, gang out there,

31
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: keep trying, keep trying for the moon. So you just

32
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: like I just want to get a shoot for the

33
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: poon that I was trying to make. That means something

34
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:58,559
Speaker 1: unfortunate incident, Yeah, really, just trying to get into your mind,

35
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: which is a terrified place to be. But you were

36
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: just drifting off. And then a candle shaped like a dick,

37
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 1: like a photo realistic dick, Like, what are we talking about?

38
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 1: I thought it would be funny to give as a

39
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 1: gift to like, particularly male friends and colleagues of mine,

40
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,239
Speaker 1: Like a candle that's just like my penis, but a candle,

41
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,679
Speaker 1: Oh it's your penis. Yeah, that's what I was looking into,

42
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: you know, what would be involved in that process because

43
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: Christmas is just around the corner um, and I figure

44
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 1: I should start like figuring that out now. And I

45
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 1: didn't learn much because I fell asleep had some weird dreams,

46
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: but I might get back into it. Cool. Well, what

47
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: is something you think is overrated? This ties into that

48
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: video we were talking about. But TV news, I think

49
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: it's a bad idea. I've come to the conclusion that

50
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 1: like maybe there's no benefit to daily TV news. Maybe

51
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: it's it's or more toxic to just like our national

52
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: discourse and the whole country. Maybe it's almost impossible to

53
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: liver like like reasonable, well thought out, accurate information in

54
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 1: the format that TV news currently exists within. What is

55
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: it about TV? Because this is something like I've seen

56
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 1: really talented people have to like be forced into a

57
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: TV format and it like they just like funk it up,

58
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: something like they just make them worse versions of themselves,

59
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: like I've seen. It's just like something about TV that

60
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: really doesn't work except for the Simpsons. Yeah, it's the

61
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: strict time constraints. I think that's part of it. I

62
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: think it's partly the ad supported thing, although you know

63
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: you have that with newspapers too. I think it's like

64
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: just the amount that they try to cover, so you

65
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,839
Speaker 1: can't like some subjects like you're talking about the fucking

66
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: Syrian Civil War, there's nothing useful you can deliver to

67
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: people in thirty seconds, which is what you're going to have.

68
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: Like it's also this conventional wisdom that took over that

69
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: was just like no, you got yeah, you gotta keep

70
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: their eyes and brains buzzing, like with new changes in

71
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: bright flashing ship for seconds. Wasn't that anecdote about Bill

72
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: Shine when he was working at Fox was just like

73
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: there was a I are at a building and he

74
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: just made all the coverage just about the fire and

75
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: like just show the fire, just show that they want

76
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: them out. It's because it's really not about informing people,

77
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: just about how do you tap into their fears or yeah,

78
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: well it's yeah, it's one of those things like the

79
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: fucking Momo thing that like came right like that was

80
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 1: like a big TV news thing. I don't think if

81
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: like it was all newspapers and online articles and stuff like, yeah,

82
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: there would have been some sensational bullshit, but like none

83
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: of like the legacy like the legacy TV media ran

84
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: with that to an extent, like The New York Times.

85
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: Any reporter who's worth a salt who starts looking at that,

86
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: it's going to learn like twenty seconds, Oh this is nothing, right, right, Okay,

87
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: well that's the story that this is nothing. Yeah. I mean,

88
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: I think from a cultural perspective, momo was interesting because

89
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: it was a monster face that you got to put

90
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 1: on something that really is out there and terrible, which

91
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: is like the children's entertainment on the internet is really fucked,

92
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: and so they were just like, yeah, oh that was

93
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: the thing that was allegedly a video that was convinced

94
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: and kids like murder their families, which is a thing

95
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: that people on YouTube have tried to do. It just

96
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,159
Speaker 1: wasn't real with like momo at Nothing. It wasn't a

97
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: weird Japanese art piece. Nobody's been hurt or killed or anything.

98
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: But there is just not just heaps and heaps of

99
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: garbage that know exactly how to hypnotize two year old

100
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: and their parents are just like, yeah, here you go,

101
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: here's the smartphone. Yeah. That feeds into my issue more

102
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: than just TV news is just like the amount of

103
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: poison that people ingest via their eyes that we're all

104
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: just like, yeah, this is just the way it is. Yeah,

105
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: how else could it be? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, okay, yeah,

106
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: your brain diet. We've talked before. We've talked we've talked

107
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 1: before about how like people think about their diet a

108
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: little bit more constructively now, but we should also be

109
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,840
Speaker 1: thinking about our media diets. Yeah, I don't think about

110
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: like yeah, because I watched a lot of trash shows

111
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: and I realized too, like I'm mainlining just a lot

112
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: of vapid conflict, like on its surface, the energy that's

113
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: coming off the screen is just negative. Yeah, That's why

114
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: I was, like, I was having starting to triage my

115
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 1: garbage TV, and I'm like, I can't just keep giving

116
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 1: it that, like I have to balance it out with something,

117
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 1: because I realized I'm actually in the midst of an

118
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: experiment to see, like if I just only keep it

119
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 1: to messes, okay, I like messy drama on a reality show,

120
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: but ship where just like people being like this person

121
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: sucking sucks it like that ship. I realized I'm like,

122
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 1: the more I watched that subtly, I mean not that

123
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: like I'm I think I'm more stupid for only figuring

124
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,239
Speaker 1: this out now or just or sort of being aware

125
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: of it. How much that sort of can affect my

126
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 1: mood a little bit, even on a very subconscious level,

127
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: even though I'm not like fully buying into what I'm seeing,

128
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: It's just that that's what I'm giving myself. So you know,

129
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: that's what stood up. Then I watch uh, you know,

130
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: Bumpets and Ship. Yeah, now I only watch Mr Rogers

131
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: Neighbor Got to It feels relaxing, yeah, you know, but

132
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: there's definitely giving yourself, you know. Yeah, Like I I've

133
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: noticed there are certain podcasts that if I watch, I

134
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: feel like you listen to them? Uh no, I watched them. Wow,

135
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: just watch the cursor sixth cents over here. There are

136
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: certain podcasts that if I listened to them, I will

137
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: feel like garbage after. It's just yeah, it's the same

138
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: thing as fast food. It's just like you have to

139
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: pay attention to how different things you're putting into your brain,

140
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: like you feel and like, affect you. Because I went

141
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: on a streak of watching old date Line episodes on

142
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: YouTube like like two years ago. It was all I

143
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: was watching for like like maybe three week period because

144
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: I was just like, yes, bro more more and it

145
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: had me fucking all kinds of fun, Like I became

146
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: a little more susceptible to paranoia or just like or

147
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: my confirmation bias was a little more centered around like

148
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: the really dark ship and I was like, oh, yeah,

149
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: because I'm just eating That's what I'm eating. Yeah, I

150
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: can say, like people ask me all the time because

151
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: behind the bastards, I'm always reading about like terrible people,

152
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: like doesn't that funk you up? And I joke about

153
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: like yeah, so I do a bunch of drugs, but

154
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 1: that the reality is that like reading a good book

155
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: about like a guy like Hitler or a guy like

156
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: Stalin or one of these terrible people, that doesn't put

157
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: me in a bad place. If it's really good work,

158
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: like it's it's it's edifying, you learn something. I feel

159
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: better after it. I feel bad on Twitter right in

160
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: YouTube and stuff like those make me feel like shit.

161
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: Like nothing has convinced me to go buy more guns

162
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: than like bad Twitter benches where I'm like, oh my god,

163
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 1: everything's falling apart right the right, and that is sort

164
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 1: of your vice or one of your that is definitely

165
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: one thousand no gun buying. I mean shooting is a

166
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: relatively healthy hobby. Consider it like it's it's like a

167
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,319
Speaker 1: technical skill. You get out of the house, you do something. Um.

168
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: Gun buying is debatably healthy, but like the actual act

169
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,199
Speaker 1: of getting better at a physical task, I think he's

170
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,839
Speaker 1: usually a good thing. But the fact that, like your

171
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: backyard looks like that bunker from terminator to that the

172
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: the people have been building up, well, you know, ready

173
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,079
Speaker 1: for the coming of They haven't found the mailman. So

174
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 1: technically no one can connect that to anything I may

175
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,119
Speaker 1: or may not have fired on in the night. Uh,

176
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: you know, there you go. I have no idea what

177
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 1: you're talking about. All right, guys, let's get into April

178
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: Fools jokes. Huh, the best time of the year for

179
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: those of us in comedy right aware of what's happening today,

180
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 1: Holy sh it, Miles, you want to just go micro

181
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 1: machine man on this ship. So you know, the Washington

182
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: Post was throughout days going here's an updating list of

183
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 1: all the April Fools things are happening. And by the

184
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: time I got to the thirtieth thing, I was like,

185
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 1: why why are we doing this? So, for example, DJ

186
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: Khalid isn't TikTok's new Chief motivational officer, Spotify turned its

187
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: Discover Weekly custom playlists into Disco Cover Weekly, a playlist

188
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: of disco covers. Uh, let's see. Shutterstock isn't opening a

189
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: brick and mortar library for stock images. Roku isn't introducing

190
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: a remote for dogs. Let's see Halo Top isn't launching

191
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: an edible ice cream face mask. Yeah, I get it.

192
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 1: It's just all like, well, can I say one said,

193
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 1: I know about disco because I just watched the studio

194
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: documentary Plane. I didn't realize like how transgressive and cool

195
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 1: discos origins were, and that the backlash discos kind of

196
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: like what's going on now with like the like Trump

197
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 1: is um Like the backlash disco was like Midwestern people

198
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,119
Speaker 1: getting like angry at like kind of like tolerant, inclusive,

199
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: like lgbt Q friendly. The most famous style, the most

200
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: famous anti disco event was like the disco record burning

201
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: like an Indian like I think, yeah, but I didn't.

202
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 1: I didn't realize like the symbolist and something like I

203
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,679
Speaker 1: think we actually have to bring disco back and not

204
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: have it to I'm not a hater on disco at all,

205
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,839
Speaker 1: especially like when you think about people who listen like

206
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: Justice or daft Punk, you're like you're listening to spend

207
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: up disco samples. My man, they're not really doing much.

208
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: That gets a good point that the sort of sensibility

209
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,719
Speaker 1: of all these pranks is, you know, they're trying to

210
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: reach the largest possible audience. So it's all like pranks

211
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: as conceived by like the j leno Ish, right, I

212
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: mean there's all kinds of weird stuff. There's a Lockheed

213
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: Martin there. They said they had a perfume that smells

214
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: like outer space. Tinder was introducing a height verification badge. Um,

215
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: let's see, there was a mr AVO head right they

216
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: verific like that. That's I think, just come up with

217
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: a good idea that like you can't necessarily get off

218
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 1: the ground, but you would if you could, and like

219
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: those are those at least they proved that the brand

220
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: is like interesting or like has like is in touch

221
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: with them, where it's like the halo top thing like

222
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: edible ice cream mask is just stupid, or like STD

223
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: verification would be cool, right right, yeah? But then what else?

224
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: Someone said there was like a mineral water popsicle, like

225
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: it was just really just lame ship and one thing

226
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 1: that I think just ice but on a stick, so

227
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,719
Speaker 1: it felt like a uh, you know, dessert. Then there

228
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 1: was a weed flavored cottage cheese. Anyway, it's this guy.

229
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: I'm just like, what are we doing? And then what

230
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: I'm surprised wasn't on here was Elon musk over the

231
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,439
Speaker 1: weekend was like became a SoundCloud rapper and no one

232
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: is treating this like an April Fool's joke. Is it

233
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,679
Speaker 1: a joke? Well, I don't. According to him, he's like,

234
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: this is a new thing. I'm trying out Emo G

235
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 1: records um and the song he dropped is called r

236
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: I P harambe Um and it's like so it's like

237
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: at the moment, it's like she's clearly up. He just

238
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: got that. What it was it was Robbie or some ship. Yeah.

239
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: The annoying thing is the song is has like a

240
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: really catchy hook, so like he played it for us

241
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: and like immediately got in my head. So which isn't

242
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 1: surprising because he's like super rich and he also has

243
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 1: Yeah he also like can like probably date him line

244
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: whatever is in your head? Right, yeah, yeah, yeah that's true.

245
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: It's like I using machine learning. I've already created like

246
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: who you are. And another thing, someone said that there

247
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: is going to be a pasta air freshener, which I

248
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: thought again on its face, like you gotta do better,

249
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: Like the point is to fool us. Yeah, your miister

250
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 1: making bonds now is like what? Yeah, gives the ship again?

251
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Their pivoting baby? But which

252
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: makes sense because a lot of alcohol companies are trying

253
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: to be like I think weed is the next wave.

254
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to worry about alcohol, right guys, time

255
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 1: x is launching a watch with a new twenty five

256
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: hour on it. How did it come up with? Not

257
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: just that movie Time Come On, Yeah, which is a

258
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: great movie by the way, and underrated and about our topic. Yeah,

259
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: all right, let's bring back to analogy. Where was everybody,

260
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: Uh seriously, where was everyone in high school those flights?

261
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: It was so young. I don't remember it. I was

262
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: working for the Pentagon at the time actually, so I'm

263
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: very old. All right, Well, fuck April fools. Um, yeah,

264
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: just blanket April fools. Just blanket fuck April fools. Blanket

265
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 1: April fool. That didn't come out right, Yes, guys, it's

266
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: not easy going through the news every day and me like,

267
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 1: we have extra streential threats over and I'm gonna just

268
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: laugh about him, right, But we do. But we do.

269
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: And we also go through the news and find out

270
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 1: stuff like people are doing drugs and having sex including

271
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: and get this hold onto your skys alcohol. They're they're

272
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: taking alcohol and then doing sex with one another. Is

273
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: this an anecdote? This is yeah, this is something so

274
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: I've been observing my neighborhood. I think this is no.

275
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: So there's a studying Gizmoto that superproducer and a Josie

276
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: it was like read out loud to us and we

277
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: were like, oh, that makes sense that that's a study.

278
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: But then the more of it that she read, the

279
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: more it was like just the dumbest like, I don't know.

280
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: It sounds like, uh, these are aliens who are just

281
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: finding out how human species work. Oh so, but they're

282
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: just sort of assertion was like, there's a growing number

283
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: of people who do drugs before they even saying there's

284
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: a growing number or there there's a large number of

285
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: people who do drugs before doing stuff. The headline is

286
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: these are the drugs people like to mix with sex

287
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 1: and one of them is alcohol. Then they treat that

288
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: like a surprise, right, and like even the other ones

289
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 1: like yeah, that probably means you're drunk, and then you

290
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: don't again, all of these things like whether it's M

291
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: D M A or you know, poppers or fucking weed

292
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 1: or I'm just finding out about poppers. A detailed Jack

293
00:15:54,080 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 1: was bragging about how much he's learning great pipe cast

294
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: by the way, people should check it out. But it's

295
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 1: like one of those things. I don't really know people

296
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: who are like, yo, we're about you want to have sex,

297
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: all right, let's smoke some weed. But they do say

298
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: that weed is mixed with sex. It really seems to

299
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: me like it's more like you're high and then you're like, right,

300
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 1: because people have smoke weed are cool and cool people

301
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: have sex, that's right. Yes, I mean some of us

302
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 1: are ankst written okay, yeah, and we need the weed

303
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: to have a sort of veneer of cool. Yes, I

304
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: know you do. I have found that it's hard to

305
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: have sex while having a panic attack, So I never

306
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: mixed mariland in my experience. But other people, you know,

307
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 1: more power to them. It really seems like it's more

308
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: of a general survey of like how what percentage of

309
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: the population uses these drugs and then sure sometimes sex

310
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 1: happens on them, and then they're the ones that are

311
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: explicitly drugs you take to have sex, like MDMN, ecstasy

312
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 1: and crystal and poppers. Yeah, and viagra. They talk about

313
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:10,239
Speaker 1: viagra like just the whole thing. Yeah, right, because I mean,

314
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: because right, you have to. I mean I've heard my

315
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 1: number of sexual partners would be half easily. I feel

316
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 1: like that would be true for most people. Yes, I

317
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 1: will say, uh, in high school, you know the thing people,

318
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 1: everyone was telling you to it like, dude, you should

319
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: have sex when you're having when you're on ecstasy, you

320
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 1: should or should you should not because it would be

321
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: so good that you'll never have rag sex again. You're

322
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 1: only gonna be chemming it up, right, and you don't

323
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: want to be in this they call it sex. No,

324
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,400
Speaker 1: I never even heard that. Sounds like a cop. Yeah,

325
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: it sounds like a cop is like, hey, guys, that's

326
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 1: what you are going to meet down the dare officers

327
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: telling He's like, no, kids, don't want to worry about

328
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: kem sex chemicals. Right, you have sex with chemicals? Right?

329
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: Did you listen? Yo? It's so funny. One of like

330
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 1: the first times I did ecstasy in high school. My

331
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: high school girlfriend, who was an athlete, she wasn't really

332
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 1: doing ecstasy, so like I was like my sort of

333
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 1: scumbag friends and like like these kids who did the

334
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 1: drugs in my high school and we just got fucked

335
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 1: up on ecstasy. And then I called my girlfriend and

336
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,120
Speaker 1: because she was like she was just finishing like a

337
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 1: volleyball tournament or something, and she's like, Oh, are you

338
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 1: guys partying or whatever? So she came with some of

339
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,199
Speaker 1: her friends and I was like, I was like, I

340
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,439
Speaker 1: don't know if I can have sex because I was

341
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: just like so fucked up on ecstasy. I just like laid.

342
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: I was just like just rubbed my bag. So I

343
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 1: wasn't even in a place to be like that. No,

344
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: it wasn't because I was just like peeking and I'm like,

345
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: I didn't even have a bud light till I was nineteen.

346
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: Don't worry, man, I'm not like to make me a

347
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: better person. I definitely like when I got to college,

348
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,919
Speaker 1: and like after college, thinking back, I was like jealous

349
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: of the people who were just starting to drink in college.

350
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,159
Speaker 1: I feel like that's like probably the way to do it,

351
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: even though when I was in high school, ass like

352
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: come on, like a bunch of losers, okay, and that way. Yeah?

353
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: Why why later on? Like why what was envious about

354
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 1: someone drinking? I was already like because I was already

355
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,919
Speaker 1: in a bad place by freshman year, just like you

356
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:29,439
Speaker 1: had hit like terminal velocity, Like didn't remember most of

357
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: my freshman years. When did you came to drink your

358
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 1: first beer? Well, I was, I guess I was eighteen.

359
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: I I drank like the first night of college. I

360
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 1: had like SIPs in high school, but like we did right,

361
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 1: And then I got really into vodka my freshman year,

362
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: but like whipped cream like it was with cream vodka

363
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 1: if I could find someone to buy it for me

364
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 1: slash if I could afford it. And then other than that,

365
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 1: my roommates and I had this leader of Mr Boston,

366
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: which was like the shitty Boston vodka Mr Boston. It

367
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: was just called Mr Boston and it would only come

368
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:10,479
Speaker 1: inside gigantic and it was just like we just like

369
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: nurse a gigantic like gallon of Mr Boston. I know

370
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: that I took my anti free sized like handles of it,

371
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,640
Speaker 1: and then We're just like hide it so that A

372
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 1: Russell wouldn't find us. R A Russell was addicted to

373
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,360
Speaker 1: drugs that didn't matter. But like, but yeah, I don't

374
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 1: think it were drinking Pinnacle vodka. I was drinking, yeah,

375
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 1: because I remember that being the one where they came

376
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: out aggressively with like flavors and I was like, whip

377
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,199
Speaker 1: the whim cream vodka. I liked the what was the

378
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 1: thing that was? My mom liked that ship that was blue?

379
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: What was that? Oh? Ye, your mom was hypnotic. My

380
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: mom lovedic rap video. She's mixing it with Hennessy. She's like,

381
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 1: I only drinking incredible hulks. My dad's been sober since.

382
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: And then when he and my mom split up, my

383
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: mom was all like she was always fine with drinking,

384
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: but we just didn't have it in the house. And

385
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: so when she moved away, she was just like, I

386
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,479
Speaker 1: got this thing. It's called hypnotic. It's blue. Like she

387
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 1: that was like single mom drinking like Alisa before that,

388
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 1: because Alisa was the gateway to hypnotic. No, I don't

389
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 1: think she was drinking. I think she was basically like,

390
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: what's that blue one? I think she she her whole

391
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: thing is she's like a it's like a basic mom

392
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: where she says like I like the beach, I like

393
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: blue because and so so she like she was like

394
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: it's blue. Yeah. She loves shout out to hypnotic h

395
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: Y P N O T i Q, the most nineties

396
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: spelling of whatever. But like, I don't know, drinking. Starting

397
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: to drink in college was bad in a different way

398
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: because then I was just like I got drunk so easily,

399
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 1: and then I would stay drunk forever, Like I was

400
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: drunk during Like I remember being drunk during my my

401
00:21:55,760 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: Film History final, my freshman purpose sort of. But like

402
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 1: I just didn't I underestimated the staying power of Mr Boston.

403
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: Mr Boston. It's weird that like the cheapest vodkas in

404
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: the world have like their regional because like pop Off

405
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: as the l a cheap vodka, But then people on

406
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,880
Speaker 1: the East Coast have never heard of pop Off and

407
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 1: they just a'll drink Mr Boston. Check it out, Mr Bos. Yeah,

408
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: it must be the same, like they just rebrand it. Yeah,

409
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: when you first said Mr Boston, I thought you were

410
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: talking about the contestant from I Love New York. Remember

411
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: that trash all right, we're gonna take a quick break.

412
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back. I do want

413
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 1: to talk about the possibility of a second American Civil War.

414
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: This is the subject of your new podcast That Could

415
00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 1: Happen Here, which people can go subscribe to now on

416
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: their podcast listening platform of their choosing. But so can

417
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 1: you kind of talk I mean, this seems like a

418
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: thing that I'm hearing more and more from, like people

419
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 1: on both sides of the divide, like talking about Okay,

420
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,360
Speaker 1: I thought it was crazy a couple of years ago,

421
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: and now like I think it's less crazy basically, um,

422
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: and what one of the things that jumped out to

423
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 1: me in the first episode is just like some of

424
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 1: the audio you have of people on the right, Like

425
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 1: I don't think people literally calling to murder their political animazing. Yeah, yeah,

426
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: it's it's it's pretty wild. Yeah, that's a thing. Yeah,

427
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:44,439
Speaker 1: I've so much kind of did it implicitly, like a

428
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 1: week ago when he was saying that like the Bikers

429
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 1: for Trump, he has the Bikers for Trump and the military,

430
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 1: and if they pushed too far, they're gonna it's gonna

431
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 1: be very, very, very bad. And there's just a little

432
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 1: story behind that. When we were going through the drafts

433
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: of the first episode, I didn't actually have a lot

434
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: in there about the potential of the president calling on

435
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,880
Speaker 1: militias and his armed supporters in order to keep him

436
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: in power. And you were like, you should talk a

437
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: little bit more about that. And I felt awkward writing

438
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 1: it because I was like, this just seems like a

439
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 1: step too far. And then he said that, and then

440
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: he did it. It was like, oh, well, I guess

441
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 1: I guess I could just pop this all in. I

442
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: guess what do you say right to people who are

443
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 1: kind of like, Okay, everything seems very stable, now, what

444
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,199
Speaker 1: is the road map or what are the events that

445
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:33,920
Speaker 1: could possibly lead to it? Because I think the whole

446
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: point of your show, right, like the idea of that

447
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: it could happen here, is that as Americans, we tend

448
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 1: to think of civil wars and things like that as

449
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: things that are happening like they're developing world or and

450
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 1: just I mean, come on, it's it's the US, Like,

451
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: you know, people people like there shipped too much to

452
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: try and fight each other in the streets. But what

453
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: are the I guess the different versions because I think

454
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 1: a lot of people think like is there going to

455
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 1: be like coastal versus whatever, Like you know, like what

456
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,679
Speaker 1: are the divisions that you see? It would be a

457
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: bunch of different small groups popping up different chunks of

458
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 1: the country, carrying out attacks with the goal of making

459
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: the country ungovernable, because that's how war works. Now. That

460
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: was essentially before they seized a bunch of territory. Um.

461
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: The sort of book that isis is whole fucking thing

462
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 1: was based off of that, like led to the tactics

463
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: that led to them seizing an area larger than England

464
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 1: in Syria and Iraq is a book called The Management

465
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,880
Speaker 1: of Savagery, And the idea is that you don't try

466
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 1: to oppose a national military by just starting off by

467
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,639
Speaker 1: trying to raise an army and fight it in the

468
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 1: field like the South did back in eighteen sixty one.

469
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 1: You try to render the country ungovernable so that order

470
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,959
Speaker 1: breaks down and then you can seize control. And like

471
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,919
Speaker 1: that actually works pretty well. And I think the United

472
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,439
Speaker 1: States is in a situation where as stable and as

473
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 1: much money as we have, we also have a lot

474
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 1: of ingredients that could lead to a really ugly insurgency

475
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 1: that could render the country ungovernable, Like they try to

476
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: think about, like how a bunch of guys would air

477
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: fifteens could fight the U. S. Military, And like, my

478
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,439
Speaker 1: answer to that is a fucking Afghanistan and not think

479
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 1: about Appalachia. Think about what a couple of thousand guys

480
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: who are really committed to fucking with the government could

481
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 1: do just in that one chunk of the country, and

482
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 1: how hard it would be to route them out, how

483
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,120
Speaker 1: much money it would cost, how many civilians would die,

484
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 1: would that would do to people's faith in the federal government,

485
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: their ability to trust it, Like the repercussions that would

486
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,199
Speaker 1: have around the country, the other groups would inspire. They

487
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 1: just arrested forty Neo Nazis in Florida with a rocket laundry,

488
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: Like there's groups of people who have that, like the

489
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,719
Speaker 1: the physical infrastructure necessary if other people in the country

490
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: were doing it. And yeah, I was just gonna say,

491
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 1: if people were talking about white supremacists as like a

492
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: unitary block the way they think about Islamic terrorists, then

493
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 1: I feel like they would sort of recognize them as

494
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: a bigger danger than than they are. But because the

495
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: American media and the American brain has a tendency to

496
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 1: just be like, oh, a white terrorist, well that's one

497
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:56,920
Speaker 1: of just a random guy that happened, right exactly. It's

498
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 1: always treated as a as a one off instead of uh,

499
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 1: vanilla isis yeah, great great term. Wow, that's ka yeah

500
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: um oh. But we're here real quick though. I do

501
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,919
Speaker 1: want to hear because, like you have some quotes in

502
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: here from people who like the right is openly saying

503
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: they will kill liberals if they try to impeach Trump.

504
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: And I think we have a clip of that. Yeah,

505
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: we have a clip of one of the more extreme

506
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: people on the right. Yeah, Alex certain, Mr Alex Joness,

507
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,160
Speaker 1: you're trying to start the civil war with people. You're

508
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: taking our kindness for weakness. Do you understand the American

509
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 1: people will kill all of you if you want a

510
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:56,880
Speaker 1: real war a seventeen seventy six I'm not the one

511
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: that's called from violence. You're gonna get wrecked bad. I

512
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 1: don't a war. I don't need some you know, coming

513
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,399
Speaker 1: of age deal to kill a bunch of liberals. I

514
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: just can't. But I also feel like I'm in dereliction

515
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 1: of as a citizen of my duty not saying we

516
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 1: have to start getting ready for insurrection and civil war

517
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: in that instance, what are the sides, the diametrically opposed

518
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 1: sides that Alex Jones like, is it liberals that he's

519
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: just thinking people with their MPR bags are gonna just

520
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 1: pull up and try and you know, bore him to

521
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 1: death with. I think he's talking about like the potential

522
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 1: of like what if they try to impeach President Trump

523
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,119
Speaker 1: or try out what if you know, they he voted

524
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 1: out of office and what surely the far right would

525
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 1: consider to be an illegitimate election. You know, think one

526
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: thing even more than Alex Jones, because his popularity is

527
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: a little bit on the wayne, although he still speaks

528
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: to hundreds of thousands of people every month. I think

529
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 1: one thing you have to really take seriously is the

530
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,239
Speaker 1: growth of the Q and On conspiracy as journalists called

531
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: Bill ben Collins, who's been covering it pretty heavily, who

532
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 1: just posted pictures from outside of a Trump rally where

533
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 1: they were like a hundred someon people are all in

534
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,479
Speaker 1: Q regally out there, And the easiest thing in the world,

535
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: even easier than finding Alex Jones talking about wanting to

536
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 1: kill liberals, is finding Q and On fans talking about

537
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,239
Speaker 1: wanting to murder people like wanting because they believe that

538
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 1: like everyone against Trump is part of a vast pedophilic

539
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 1: conspiracy that's also like the reason why they're not rich.

540
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: Like it's it's this whole multifaceted, weird cult, but like

541
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: it's growing, it's not stopping, it's spreading outside of the

542
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: United States. I have friends in London who are talking

543
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 1: to me about seeing fucking more que stuff at protests,

544
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: Like it's this this new kind of cult that like

545
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 1: we haven't really dealt with before, where there's like no

546
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: head and no organization, but like these groups of people

547
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: radicalizing each other. I just found my neighborhood papered and

548
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: like q and On flyers um, like it's fucking scary um.

549
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 1: And I will guarantee you all of those people own guns. Yeah,

550
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: well not I think we even I don't know if

551
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: we spoke about it, But there was that one q

552
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: and On conspiracy theorist who is really getting frazzled over

553
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 1: the lack of a that were happening because they were

554
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: like we were promised, like things were going to happen,

555
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 1: and and her worry was like if I'm afraid if

556
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: these arrests don't come, We're going to have to go

557
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 1: and knock down John Podesta's door, Right, So they think

558
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: that Robert Mueller is going to come in and arrest

559
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 1: was able to definitely n these people, and John Podest

560
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 1: is part of it. I think that's what they're saying. Like,

561
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: so she was saying, if Robert Mueller doesn't start arresting

562
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: the Clintons and the Obama's and John Podesta not, I

563
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: will therefore realize my conspiracy theory is insane. It is

564
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: I will then have to go start killing people myself.

565
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 1: It's like that guy who blocked one of the numerous

566
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: now terrorists or attempted terrorist attacks that almost ended in bloodshed,

567
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: was the guy who like parked his armored vehicle on

568
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: the Hoover Dam filled with guns and tried to block

569
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: off access to the Hoover Dam until President Trump unleashed

570
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: these sealed indictments he believes exists. And the President retweeted

571
00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 1: one of these people a couple of days, you know,

572
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 1: was and about a Q and on thing, but it

573
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 1: was and it's like that was on that weekend where

574
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 1: you like what he's playing with, Buddy, did you just

575
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: not notice it or are you fucking playing with something

576
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: really goddamn dangerous, Like I don't, I don't know what

577
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: that dude, right, No, I think he is perfectly willing

578
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 1: to like create a huge civil war sized conflict or

579
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 1: like you know, a civil insurrection if he thinks it's

580
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: an existential issue regarding his like claim to power. And

581
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: I really think, I mean Michael Cohen during his testimony

582
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 1: specifically said he does not think there's any chance that

583
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: there will be said, give my experience working for Mr Trump,

584
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: I fear that if he loses the election in that

585
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: there will never be a peaceful transition of power. Yeah,

586
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows him better than that? And like

587
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,239
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's a thing to be scared of,

588
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 1: and it's probably I wear when people like Elizabeth Warren

589
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 1: says stuff like I don't know even know if he'll

590
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: be a freeman because it's like like fucking Nixon. I'm

591
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: sure he deserves to be in prison, but like that's

592
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: why we don't do that in this country. We don't.

593
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: We don't jail or even when they commit crimes. And

594
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 1: like you can argue that maybe we ought to, but

595
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: also like part of why we don't is because that's

596
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 1: why we've had so many peaceful transitions of power, because

597
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: we know we're not going to go after you even

598
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: if you do commit a bunch of war crimes. Like

599
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: that's just and like it's fucked up. But maybe maybe

600
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: it's better than having all the civil wars that the

601
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: Romans used to have when they would do ship like that.

602
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: Like I I don't know, but there's an argument to

603
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 1: be made. And like I think everyone, like right now,

604
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: we're all hanging out and like a warehouse filled with

605
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 1: gasoline soaked rags, and everybody's playing with matches and yelling

606
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: at everybody else we're playing stop playing with matches, as

607
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: they like as they together, Hey, you stop it right?

608
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: So yeah, and you get into a lot more detail

609
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: and like you know what the various verons of a

610
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: civil war could look like in America because it wouldn't

611
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 1: look like you've spent time in active war zones in

612
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: other countries, and it doesn't look like one side versus

613
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 1: the other, right, No, I mean mostly just looks like

614
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 1: a bunch of people trying to go about their day

615
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 1: and sometimes things explodes. Yeah, and like or that you're

616
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 1: just there's always shooting going on nearby, and you're just like, well,

617
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: it's been pretty nice in my neighborhood for a while.

618
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 1: I hope that continues. I gotta go pick up ship

619
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 1: from the store, Like yeah, Like, it's just life for

620
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: most people. And like, unless you've got some sort of

621
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 1: like hardcore plan and desire to go go out shooting, like,

622
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: most people will probably just try to keep their ship together,

623
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 1: like keep your eyes low and yeah, don't make a

624
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 1: big thing and hope it ends um, which is why

625
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 1: so many civil wars end with a dictator in charge,

626
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 1: like in Syria, where eventually enough people are like I

627
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: just wanted to be over, Like yeah, they're like, find

628
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: this guy promised no more shooting. Yeah right. Look, when

629
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: I listened to the episode the trailer, I was freaked

630
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: the funk out. I mean not because it's a very

631
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 1: very troubling idea to try and have to wrestle with that,

632
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 1: like that level of instability and violence could actually just

633
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 1: break out in the United States and your I know

634
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 1: your intention is not to freak people out of just

635
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,279
Speaker 1: be necessarily fear mongering, but I think it's it's a

636
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: what is sort of your goal? I think in presenting

637
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 1: people with this information I'm trying to think of. It's

638
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: sort of like a like a vaccine in the hopes

639
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: that like if you if you talk about this enough

640
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: and get this out enough to people and like get

641
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: this idea in people's heads of like how much of

642
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: it and rather than just talk about a civil war

643
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 1: and like this like yeah, and you should buy you

644
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:31,799
Speaker 1: should buy this, you should buy that is like this

645
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,879
Speaker 1: sort of aspirational thing which has been on the far

646
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: right for a while. You talk about how much it

647
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: would suck, exactly what would happen, exactly how difficult it

648
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: would be to contain once it gets started, and when

649
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: like at the end, like the last episode is going

650
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: to be trying to talk about the concrete actions people

651
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 1: can take try to make it less likely. Like the

652
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: goal of this is to inform people of the danger.

653
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:54,879
Speaker 1: Like it's not fearmongering in the way that like if

654
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: I see that you're looking at your phone while you're

655
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 1: driving and you like turn a corner and are headed

656
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: towards a wall, if I say there's a fucking wall,

657
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 1: Like that's the goal, Like, that's the goal is to

658
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 1: be like, there's a fucking wall out there, and like

659
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 1: maybe maybe look at the wall and see about see

660
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 1: about pumping them brains, because I think that's sort of

661
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 1: the the effect it has is because it's sort of

662
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: you're able to sort of concretely see what a reality

663
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: like that could look like, and we already do. I

664
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: think as Americans you try and not to ever entertain

665
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 1: that because it's just a chilling thought. But when you

666
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 1: look at sort of the kind of rhetoric that's happening,

667
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: it's something definitely that like people have increasingly become, you know,

668
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,880
Speaker 1: afraid of, especially with the increased number of like violent

669
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: attacks and the sort of ideology of the of these people. Uh,

670
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 1: I mean, the the idea that this is kind of

671
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: a first time that somebody is really bringing up the

672
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 1: possibility of a second American Civil war in like sort

673
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 1: of center to left media is like not first time

674
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: anyone's bringing it up, but really like about that cracked artist. Yeah,

675
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: but this is something that has been talked about on

676
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 1: the right constantly four years and years since I was

677
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 1: fucking eighteen and going to gun shows in Texas, Like

678
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: they have only thing people they've been horny for a

679
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 1: civil war for so long. So that's also something that

680
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 1: your show helped me realize. And it's it's a real

681
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,959
Speaker 1: win win for me from a content creator standpoint, because

682
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 1: if there is a civil war, then I'm I'm the

683
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 1: guy who called it. And if there's not a civil war,

684
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 1: then I get to take credit for their not being

685
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: a civil war. I saved everybody's lives. So it's really

686
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,879
Speaker 1: it really works out great for me one way. Also

687
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 1: the one who's most well prepared, since you have that

688
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:43,280
Speaker 1: stash of heavy artillery, I'm gonna say, I'm sorry, Robert,

689
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: but like, if there is no civil war, I'm gonna

690
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: have to give that up to Kendall Jenner. And she

691
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: did hand that copa Pepsi And I'm just saying, and

692
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 1: I know you might want to point to this podcast

693
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: is maybe being there, but I see that as the

694
00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 1: real image llians in like years and that's the point

695
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: at which Earth began to heal. We're like we're worshiping

696
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 1: a golden statue of Kendall Jenner and the Pepsi commercial

697
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 1: that did change things. Man, Like when can you picture

698
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 1: the Pepsi like ad executives talking like thinking about like

699
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,320
Speaker 1: twenty years from now, man, this is going to be

700
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 1: a moment. This is gonna gonna be a cultural watership.

701
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 1: It's like when Apple stopped nineteen eighty four from happening

702
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,520
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty four by doing that at a commercial,

703
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: we broke the funk out. Yeah. Unfortunately smartphones have saved

704
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: us and made us completely impervious to authoritarian oversight and

705
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 1: so happy, super super cool utopia they brought us. Yeah,

706
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 1: super cool utopia your next podcast. There's another scientific study

707
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: not nearly as informative where as important as the one

708
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 1: on kem sex, but people that are fucked up might

709
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:57,239
Speaker 1: have sex. Right, There's one about how counties with more

710
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: trees spend less on bare Yeah, it makes I like

711
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: this study. Okay, So they analyzed nearly every county in

712
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:11,240
Speaker 1: the continental United States, and they showed that like medicare

713
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: costs just tended to be lower in these places that

714
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: had more forests and shrub lands than ones that were

715
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:18,879
Speaker 1: just sort of like that had other types of land

716
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 1: cover like just straight up concrete jungles and ship like

717
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: so like better air quality. Yeah, and I think you know,

718
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,360
Speaker 1: they also found that like urban and rural counties with

719
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 1: the lowest socio economic status appeared to benefit the most

720
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 1: from increases in forests and shrubs. And they also just

721
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,919
Speaker 1: found that this relationship like persists even when you look

722
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 1: at economic or geographic factors, and it was just sort

723
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 1: of like, wow, Okay, where there's more green people tend

724
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 1: to be a little bit healthier. Now, they don't go

725
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:49,760
Speaker 1: and say that this is necessarily arguing that the presence

726
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:55,439
Speaker 1: of the greenery directly lowers healthcare costs. Go breathe next

727
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 1: to a tree and you will be saved. Right, we

728
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: should knock down a couple of targets and make some

729
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 1: you know, we need we need more forest people. There's

730
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 1: all these forest people in Europe right in the in

731
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:11,240
Speaker 1: the black forest. Oh yeah, that's my favorite drinking coffee.

732
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of forests the forest experts loft. But no,

733
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,919
Speaker 1: but it does add to like this sort of there's

734
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 1: a growing body of evidence that's saying, like, green spaces

735
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:26,479
Speaker 1: are actually really good for just health outcomes. So there's

736
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 1: like there are studies that have shown that people in

737
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 1: um I see you, uh, they recover more quickly and

738
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 1: have fewer complications after surgery if their hospital rooms look

739
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 1: out over trees rather than parking lots. And also they

740
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 1: say other studies, they're found that forest walks can influence

741
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,959
Speaker 1: potentially health promoting hormone levels or anti cancer immune cells

742
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 1: in the blood. I think this is good to be

743
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,839
Speaker 1: in nature just in general. Yeah, I think this is good.

744
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's good for your mental health,

745
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 1: good for your physical health. I used to there is

746
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:54,879
Speaker 1: no woods where I grew up, and the only place

747
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,800
Speaker 1: where there was like even some woods was the big,

748
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,279
Speaker 1: big graveyard. So my mom would be like, go take

749
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: a walk around the fresh air. We would just we

750
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: would just trespass on golf courses. Oh that's nice, yeah, night,

751
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 1: because nobody's out there. Yeah, that's all you can do

752
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: in La. Yeah. Well we would do it because the

753
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: fairway was like the grass is nice and loan we

754
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 1: play soccer room. It was like a better like a

755
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: professional pitch. All right, let's take another quick break. We'll

756
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:33,760
Speaker 1: be right back. Okay, and we're back. What is a myth? Finally?

757
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 1: What is something that people think it's true? You know

758
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: to be false? Okay, you know what's false? Those bars

759
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 1: when you're in a hotel that like you're supposed to

760
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: protect you from people barging in. Okay, this is what

761
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,240
Speaker 1: do you mean the bars, you know, the security bars

762
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: those like. So I checked into a hotel in Palm

763
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 1: Springs this weekend, and when I went up to my

764
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 1: room to open the door, the latch was already close.

765
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:00,320
Speaker 1: When I went down to the front desk goes like,

766
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:03,720
Speaker 1: the latches closed. She went up with this like tool

767
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 1: to open the latch so that I could get into

768
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 1: the room. And it was booked out, booked up hotel,

769
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,399
Speaker 1: so I couldn't. She didn't have another room for me.

770
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: So the latch, the whatever, the metal key thing that

771
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: she has broken the door. And so she finds out

772
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: from this other hotel guy that you can just use

773
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 1: your plastic card the key card. Put an envelope kind

774
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,279
Speaker 1: of like Jimmy it in there and like lift up

775
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: the latch, which makes me think, like, wait, which, what

Speaker 1: and it like if you just cracked the door a

779
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:40,799
