The Democrats. The Democrats, that's who we're talking about. 68 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: They failed to win in Virginia, but they succeeded in 69 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: defeating a socialist mayor in Buffalo with a literal rubber 70 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: stamp campaign. So we're just gonna talk about the state 71 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party in the state of progressivism. I 72 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: am gonna vent and and get you guys as thoughts 73 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: on where we're at, where we're headed. We will talk 74 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: about some some things that we learned that aren't necessarily 75 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: the worst, like the critical race theory, fears weren't that 76 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: potent in most of the country, and some nice news, 77 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: some some wins for the city of Boston and Cincinnati. 78 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: We will talk about, you know, the defend the or 79 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: defund the Police movement. The defend the Police movement is 80 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: getting more popular, but the defund the Police movement seems 81 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 1: to be losing popularity. It lost Yes no vote in Minneapolis. 82 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: So we're going to talk about where we had from here. 83 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about Americans food delivery habits, America's favorite 84 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving sides, all of that plenty more. But first, Courtney, 85 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: we do like to ask our guest, what is something 86 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: from your search history? Okay, So I looked up Philip 87 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 1: Rodriguez last night to share a contact with someone, and 88 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 1: he's a documentarian and he does a lot of stuff 89 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 1: on Latin X culture and he was so nice. I 90 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: randomly met him at a bar and he just gave 91 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: me advice, half drunken advice for like an hour. I 92 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: was like, this guy is so nice, So shout out Philip. 93 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: And then before that, I looked up an actresses plastic surgery. 94 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: So one good one bad duality of yeah, this documentarian 95 00:05:55,279 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: and also excellent you're trying to find so you're suspecting 96 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: or you're looking for you were looking for an answer 97 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: whether or not something had been Yeah, I suspected and 98 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: I feel like this woman has gone through a number 99 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: of transformations. So, but I'm not here to police women's 100 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: faces just for your own curiosity. Like, I want to 101 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: make sure my skills of observation, yes, correct, because I 102 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: feel like something has shifted, for sure. I pride myself 103 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: in my ability to detect small shifts like that, right right, right, 104 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: Like does is that a thing the face can naturally 105 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 1: do on its own? I don't think so. But forehead 106 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: get tighter with age, wrinkles evaporate. Yeah, so you you've 107 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: been able to kind of spot these small disturbances in 108 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: the face. Yeah, and Sofia's yeah. I usually am like 109 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 1: turning Sophia onto it. This is I'm terrible, this is 110 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: this is private. That's funny because Sophia, you're talking abot 111 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: Sophia Alexandra, who I do fiance with. There's a there's 112 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: a cast member there where people are hotly debating, like 113 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: what is happening to this person's face, whether it's plastic 114 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: surgery or not, or just less stress or weight loss, 115 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: And it's just like one of I get the energy 116 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: around that. And she's been very like she's like trying 117 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: to send me before and actually I don't know trying 118 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: to it might not be. It might not be people's face. 119 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: This is one of our guilty pleasures. Yeah, it's a great, 120 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: great parlor trick to be able to call it out, 121 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: except for that one time. To me more, remember when 122 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: she came out with her with her new face, right 123 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: before she got with Ashton, and people are like, what 124 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: the funk is this? That machine? Superior work? Right? Yeah? Yeah, 125 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 1: one of the greats. So that was work that wasn't 126 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: just like oh yeah, I feel like they put a 127 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: dollar amount on that. Oh did that nice? Yeah? Yeah, 128 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: it is tough to tell, like because sometimes people just 129 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: some people genetically age better than like palmahyac right, yeah, fuck, 130 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's both. You know, sometimes it's easier just be 131 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: like that has like it's harder to be like some 132 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: people will just be infinitely young looking. I think that's 133 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: a scarier proposition to some people than like, no, that 134 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: has to be work. That has to be worked knsas 135 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: be these genetics or somehow on God mode. Right, what 136 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: the funk happened to me? Yeah? What is quoting something 137 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: that you think is overrated? Well, so I was thinking 138 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: about this and then I saw that Brian Cox shaded 139 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: Johnny Depth in his new memoir, and he called him overrated, 140 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: and I was like, yes, I feel like apropos of nothing. 141 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: He just offered that up and so I'm gonna second 142 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: that that. The things he wrote in that were pretty amazing. 143 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 1: I think we read it on here, but I do 144 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: want to reread it just so some people here. So 145 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: you guys have already discussed. Well, no, someone called the 146 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: tweet out. I think when I first dropped that's right. Yeah, 147 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: his his just shading a bunch of people. But I 148 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: think specifically this quote really seemed to be a incisive observation. 149 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: Brian Cox in his new book says, I mean Edward 150 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,719 Speaker 1: scissor hands. Let's face it, if you come on with 151 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: hands like that and pale, scarred face makeup, you don't 152 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: have to do anything. And he didn't, and subsequently he's 153 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: done even less, which is right. I think that's a 154 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 1: pretty pretty strong takedown of the start of his career. 155 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: I would say that his Captain Jack Sparrow performance is 156 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: definitely not him doing nothing. It's him doing He's doing 157 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: He's right, right, He's just doing a Keith Richard impression. Right. 158 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: I just love too that in reading the quotes from 159 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: Brian Cox. I could hear him, yeah, like it should 160 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: have funk off at the end of every like, yeah, yeah, 161 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: I love did you see that? I was talking about 162 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: Steven signal too. That was great. He studied serenity as 163 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: though he's on a higher plane to the rest of us. 164 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: And while he's certainly on a different plane, no doubt 165 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 1: about that, it's probably not a higher one. Yeah. Yeah. 166 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: The stories about Steven Sage, all behind the scenes are 167 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: truly amazing.

She has 176 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: She wrote a book over the pandemic. It's called My 177 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: Heart's Journey, and it's about her riding on a motor 178 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: scooter across Europe in nineteen sixty four and it's so cute. 179 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: And here's the weird thing about it, is like it 180 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: illustrates how rape the culture used to be. It's like 181 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: she's constantly being chased down by men, or like being groped, 182 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 1: or like just there's all kinds of just subtle things 183 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: in there where you're like, oh my god, you've made 184 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of progress. But anyway, other than that, 185 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: a heartwarming book. I sent it to my grandma this 186 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: and wait, did she write it like it's like a 187 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: retrospective like she wrote it in her eighties. She wrote 188 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: it like, you know, in the last couple of years 189 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: she got bored during the pandemic, and she wrote about 190 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: this amazing adventure she went on and it was really amazing, 191 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: because that's scary. I wouldn't do that getting a motor 192 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: scooter by myself and go across Europe. Sixties across Europe. 193 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: M No, that's a challenge. Is the is the book 194 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: like blowing up?

So if you are interested in a 197 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: story about the sixties or the story that was written 198 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: by an eightiesomething year old woman or prior rape culture. 199 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 1: This is a good book for you.

I like that it might be 228 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: like a wire brillo padna. It's it's going to be 229 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: a cause for concern more than a stash, I think. 230 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: But we'll see. And mine is going to make me 231 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: look like your stepdad. You think it's gonna mess your 232 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: kids up? Yeah, it will.

I 236 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: do I look like a one because I did this 237 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: in college and just looked like I was a forty 238 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: five year old stepdad. And that was before I was, 239 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: you know, in my forties. So I can't. I'm excited. 240 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: It's it's very strong and not not great. It's not great, 241 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: But we are going to be right back and talk 242 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: about some news and we're back. And what was being 243 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: built as the biggest election since Biden defeated Trump happened 244 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: last night in Virginia, and you know, the Republican even 245 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: though Biden defeated Trump by ten points there, a Republican 246 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: came through and defeated the Democratic incumbent. And you know, 247 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: we we've talked in the past couple episodes about how 248 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: this is being covered in the mainstream that like this 249 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: this is the hope for the Republican Party that they 250 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:24,479 Speaker 1: can take the parts of Trumpism that are helpful, discards 251 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: the toxic parts, and win a bunch of seats in 252 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: the mid term, and that seems to have borne out, right, Yeah, 253 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I think one thing to just keep in 254 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: mind is like if you look statistically of Virginia and 255 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: like since the seventies, there's only been one time a 256 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: Democrat has won the presidency and then the governor's house 257 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: didn't flip. So this is pretty much a path like 258 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: this is just a general pattern I think, especially like 259 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: you know, one in eleven that that feels like this 260 00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: was going to be a pretty hard fought thing. But yeah, 261 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, there's there there's a lot of 262 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: work being done in Virginia to not have like a 263 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 1: a real policy for McAuliffe to like run on more 264 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: than being like young Kins are Republican though, so and 265 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 1: like Trump endorsed him, and we're gonna buy a bunch 266 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 1: of ads with the young Kins name on it, just 267 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 1: trying to be like, yeah, so Trump loves him, so yeah. 268 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: And then in Buffalo the Democratic primary earlier this year, 269 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 1: the Democratic Socialist India Walton defeated the incumbent mayor, Byron Brown, 270 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: and so that was unacceptable to the establishment, and so 271 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 1: they started distributing stamps with his name on them for 272 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: people to put in the in the right in part 273 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: so that there would be no like spelling errors and 274 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: just to make it super easy, which seems like this 275 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: sort of thing that you wouldn't get away with if 276 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 1: you are not the incumbent and had been in power 277 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 1: for four terms. But they did get away with it. 278 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: Seems like they pulled it off. And so the Democrats 279 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: are successfully defeating socialists, not successfully defeating Republicans and this 280 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: just kind of sent me down a spiral of I 281 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: think Democrats would rather lose to a Republican than a socialist. 282 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 1: At this point, it seems like because their entire identity 283 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: is defining themselves in opposition to the Republican Party, and 284 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: socialism kind of throws everything out of whack because it 285 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: forced them to answer questions about why they don't normally 286 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:48,159 Speaker 1: do things for their constituents, and so they are willing to, 287 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: you know, get very creative and in the case of 288 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: the Buffalo mayoral race, you know, bring in a bunch 289 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 1: of Republicans to to vote for their candidate in order 290 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: to defeat the Democrats socialist. They think that a lot 291 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: of the votes for the incumbent were Republicans who just 292 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: came in because socialism evil. And yeah, it's it just 293 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 1: makes me wonder, you know, as we're seeing the results 294 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 1: in uh in the Biden administration of the a Democratic 295 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 1: Party that is just defines itself in opposition to Republicans 296 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: but doesn't really stand for anything like it seems like 297 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: more and more there it's becoming clear that there is 298 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 1: a absolute need for another answer that's not the Democratic Party. 299 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: But I don't know. Well, I think a lot of 300 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: the discourse afterwards is it's never going to question the 301 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: party or the manner the way that the government is 302 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: set up, or the system that that we have. It's 303 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: like what, I mean, what happened with progressives are like, Wow, 304 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: white women really swung this thing for young can and 305 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 1: uh and in the in the government or his race, 306 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: rather than holy sh it, I mean, because again it 307 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:08,360 Speaker 1: involves a party completely self owning by being like, man, 308 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: we totally fucked up. We're we promised it and we 309 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: don't deliver. We have a very inconsistent platform. We also 310 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 1: have some of like the least compelling people leading the 311 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: party that really doesn't move the needle for younger people 312 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 1: who are living in a pretty much like antithetical lived 313 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: reality than the one leaders think they're in. Yeah. So 314 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: there's like a huge issue like in terms of just 315 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: even like what the because like the face of the 316 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: Democratic Party is Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden, right, 317 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: that's you know, and to think that they can just 318 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: kind of keep coming back to this and people go, oh, 319 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: like the the speaker goat is back like that that 320 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: doesn't energize anyone at all or anymore. I mean, maybe 321 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 1: it did when they took the house, like in two 322 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: thousand six or whatever was when Bush was in office, 323 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: But at this point they're completely out of ideas and 324 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,880 Speaker 1: don't know how to speak to people and are still 325 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 1: wondering what the problem is. And I think that's what's 326 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: really alarming. It's like they're they just there, I think 327 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: slowly and sloven like, yeah, we don't get it, we 328 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: don't get it. Yeah, I mean that a lot of 329 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: the responses I'm seeing are you know, blaming, like you 330 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: were saying, like white women in Virginia for voting against 331 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: their best interests, And I don't know. I like, I 332 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: think the missing ingredient that I hadn't fully been taken 333 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: into account until like paying as much attention as we 334 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 1: have been while doing this show for the past four 335 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: years is and especially the past year when you have 336 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: a Democrat in power, and also during the election when 337 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: there was a Democratic Socialist candidate that, like the mainstream 338 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: media is really like part of the whole system that 339 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: makes it impossible for there ever to be an alternative 340 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: to the big de Democratic Party, and you're just you know, 341 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 1: they treated the Black Lives Matter protests in genguine like 342 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: aggrievement and energy and grief that was coming from a 343 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 1: nation and that is being murdered with impunity as like 344 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: a radical movement that they're claiming scared people away and 345 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 1: not acknowledging that that's because of the unfair coverage where 346 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: you know, local news and even the New York Times 347 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: is portraying it as you know, radical and leading to 348 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: more murders. And and then also like the way that 349 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: the mainstream media like focuses on the small like culture 350 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: war things about like TV shows removing black face characters. 351 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: I just feel I feel like when you look at 352 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: like if you just take a collage of all the 353 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: New York Times is coverage of the Black Lives Matter 354 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 1: movement since George Floyd was murdered, you would like get 355 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 1: this milange of like radical protests that are that like 356 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: ultimately are about like things that are impossible to achieve 357 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: and that like lead to a higher murder rate. And 358 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: it's just like like and then and then you know, 359 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: just the way that they cover socialism is also just 360 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: a complete disingenuous fun job. Yeah, it's I'm I mean, 361 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: this is also just just beyond the media to the 362 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: pattern of oh, scary people of color. That's just a 363 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,640 Speaker 1: fucking tactic that works all the time in this country. Unfortunately, 364 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 1: Like you know, there's just as you know, especially with 365 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,959 Speaker 1: looking at how the BLM coverage works, it's it's too 366 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 1: if Again it's because all these things forced reckonings, and 367 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: we're the country that cannot have to reckon with anything 368 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: ever at all. So you know, we're at this point 369 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: to where like that we're clearly at the end stage 370 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,479 Speaker 1: here of the most of this two party system can do. 371 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: The wheels are coming off. People need support, and the government, 372 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: even with a party and power of everything, still can't 373 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 1: do it. It's just like because there's all these blocks 374 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: too without understanding it's like, oh, do we really need 375 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: to have a fundamental reconfiguration or renegotiation with how we 376 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 1: see people's healthcare or how we see people's education or 377 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: right to a domicile or shelter, and that just it's 378 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 1: something it's a conversation that's just too difficult for the 379 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 1: established powers. So mhm M, I don't know if this 380 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 1: is gonna be you know, like I think a lot 381 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: of optimistic Democrat pundits are like, hey man, this could 382 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: be this. Now they're seeing what's going on. Now the 383 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: Democratic leadership is going to see what's going on, and 384 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 1: now they're gonna really do stuff. They're gonna they they'll 385 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 1: figure it out. That's the good part of this is 386 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: they can figure it out. And like, really, because it's 387 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: been a lot of opportunity at ease and I haven't 388 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: seen anything like that. Yeah. I mean, you know, we 389 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 1: have a couple of years with Obama having one a 390 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: you know, massive like what what today qualifies as like 391 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: a landslide victory too, when the presidency having both Houses 392 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 1: of Congress and you know, the most he was able 393 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 1: to get through was an Obamacare bill that was basically 394 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: written by health insurance companies. And now we have Biden 395 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: with both houses and unable to do anything. And it's 396 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: just it seems like they're the Democrats are willing to 397 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: fight for their ability to stay in power and then 398 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: do nothing like that seems to be what is ultimately 399 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: their goal, what regardless of what they say like stay 400 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: in power, don't change anything, just keeps the status quo. Well, 401 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: and I think people just need to understand, like really, 402 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 1: the larger point too, is like the like the thing 403 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: that is going to solve things is like the poison 404 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: of the established powers. Now, so they're just in this 405 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: impossible situation where they'll they can't embrace the thing that 406 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: would spell there to mise or their plat their platforms demise. 407 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: And I think that's and that's all we're watching where 408 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: they're like they're unable to connect the dots because then 409 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: they'd have to be like, oh, we suck, we can't 410 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: do this, you know, so instead of like oh, yeah, yeah, 411 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: well hey man paid family leave. Man, Yeah, two years 412 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 1: of community college tuition free, baby, we got this fifteen 413 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: dollar minimum ways now to Biden is pulls back on this. 414 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: Biden pulls back on this. Biden pulls back on this 415 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: because wow, they it's easy to say that, and then 416 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 1: you're like, okay, so to do that, we have to 417 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: kind of fundamentally change some things about the tax code 418 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: and uh, some taxation moments also where our empathy goes 419 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 1: because it can no longer go on the business owners 420 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: and the people who are benefactors in terms of donations. 421 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: So I think that has to be more of the 422 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 1: norm that people sort of need at a baseline, need 423 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 1: to understand rather than getting into like the back and 424 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 1: forth like Wells the Democrats, Republic of the messaging. It's no, 425 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: we're at a point in societally or at a point 426 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: where we need major change. But we have people there 427 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: that are completely They're unable to change their operating system 428 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: and it's incompatible with them. So I think the surprise 429 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,679 Speaker 1: has to end at a certain point and people have 430 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 1: to really like the larger discussion about is this the 431 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: right thing at all, and how can we change that? 432 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 1: Or what do we need to do as citizens to 433 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: figure out how we can ensure these things or exert 434 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: the proper influence to get people to you know, come 435 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,199 Speaker 1: to the table to bring better outcomes for you know, 436 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: just general Americans. Yeah, I think climate is going to 437 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: move the needle, I think the most right because all 438 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: these other things are things that we can ignore to 439 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 1: a certain extent or like just put off no are 440 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 1: you having insurance, or put off minimum wage hikes or 441 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: put off whatever. But when it's like, oh, we're having 442 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: all these you know, severe weather events so or you know, 443 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: all these other negative outcomes, I feel like that is 444 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: going to force the revolution needle a little bit more. 445 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: It's the closest to the for those reasons for sure, 446 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: because it's tangible and it's very difficult to act like 447 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 1: it's not some fantasy ghost concept that just like half 448 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: the country believes in. But then you look at what's 449 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: happening in Glasgow right now with sort of deals being 450 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: made around climate change, and you're like, God, they don't 451 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: fucking get it. And again, because this is this is 452 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,239 Speaker 1: just like any just like our problems here are just 453 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: as it relates to global warming. The people that are 454 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: there to make the decisions, the the answer to the 455 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: question spells the demise of the power structure that they've 456 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: benefited from. So there's it's that's just the absurdity of 457 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: how leadership is running globally at the moment, because like 458 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: again with all the talk of like late stage capitalism 459 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: and where we're at, it's like, yeah, the the momentum 460 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: of all the good parts has has worn off at 461 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: this point. We're no longer coasting like we did in 462 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: decades previous from like the little bit of improvements that 463 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: were made to make things slightly more equitable for some people. 464 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: But now because it's been the same thing, like how 465 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 1: can we extract the most with giving back the least, 466 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's only creating this uneasiness across the 467 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: country and the world where many people are starting to 468 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: feel like like if you're not informed, it's just everything 469 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: just feels like general unease and instability. But again, we're 470 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 1: at a across the roads and refusing it's across roads 471 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: and the people who genuinely have have all the power 472 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 1: in this country, given like in the current system, are 473 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: able to insulate themselves from the you know, devastation of 474 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: climate change because it is a problem that mostly affects 475 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 1: poor people that aren't able to buy a island in 476 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: New Zealand to go like whether the apocalypse on, yeah, 477 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: or even just have like the you know, the assets 478 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: to say like, you know what, we're gonna move, We're 479 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: leaving this place. Pack yourself up, we'll put the rest 480 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: in storage and now we live in this country. Yeah, 481 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 1: that's I think that's shortsighted though, Like I think that's 482 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: going to catch up with people because it's not It's 483 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: so funny. I was at dinner with someone and he 484 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: was like, oh, we're it was horrible how you saying it, 485 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 1: But he was like, we're in that bracket right, like 486 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 1: we're we're gonna be able to escape it. And I 487 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: was like, you are like a TV writer, you can 488 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, like you're you can't out run this thing. 489 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: There's not like it's going to have a societal call 490 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 1: that you're gonna wind up paying, even if it's going 491 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: to be like a tax that you could pay now 492 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: and it could be less or you can pay it 493 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 1: later and you're still gonna have to pay it because 494 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: you'll have to pay for your share in society crumbling 495 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: basically to some extent. No, Yeah, And I think because 496 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: like that mentality has been the way most people have 497 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: been able to avoid the worst of like leadership or whatever. 498 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: It's like, well that affects a certain socio economic bracket, 499 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 1: even if that's happening, there's a way for me to 500 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: keep myself safe. And like, yeah, that thinking will take 501 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: its place into the climate change discussion. But I think, yeah, 502 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: like you're saying, people don't really are have a will 503 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: have a route awakening as you know, more weather disruptions. 504 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: That's that has been affle affecting the supply chain even 505 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: right now, right exactly. It's all those little things. Yeah, 506 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: And I think when things get to the point where 507 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: you have massive movements of people two who are trying 508 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,959 Speaker 1: to escape things you're not gonna have. I mean, unless 509 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 1: you're quite literally being like, well I have jets and 510 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: ship like it doesn't even matter that. Okay, give you 511 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: to you, God bless you. But for everyone else, you 512 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: will realize that this is a larger question that we're 513 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: going to have to answer because the climate war will 514 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: kick off when you have a group of people are 515 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 1: saying I no longer live on a viable piece of land. 516 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: I will die if I live here, so the only 517 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: choice I have is to physically relocate. And then you're 518 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: gonna have people saying, well, we can't come here because 519 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: we only got this much, and we can't come here 520 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 1: because when we got this much, we'll have to completely 521 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: rethink what it means to live on this planet. Whether 522 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: it's like saying, well, you know what, we all need 523 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 1: to pitch into a global thing to say, well, now, 524 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: if we have to relocate five million people from here, 525 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: here's this massive global fund to say, okay, that's fine, 526 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: let's help build the infrastructure or house these people, or 527 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: feed them or clothe them and bring that out of 528 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 1: everyone's pockets rather than see. But what we're seeing now 529 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 1: is draw the fucking castle door wars up and try 530 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 1: and say no, I can't get in here, which is 531 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: only gonna like and that's where the real chaos is 532 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: going to come. But that's where the I'm not saying 533 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: that nothing's going to change, I'm just saying, as America 534 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 1: exists right now, that's where the institutional momentum is is 535 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 1: like the company corporations and the extremely wealthy determined policy, 536 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: and it's going to get real for them way later 537 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 1: than it's going to get real for the rest of us. 538 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: And I don't, like, I do want to raise the 539 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: idea of, you know, a third party has always been 540 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: something I've just rejected out of hand because I live 541 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: in America, and I realized, like how absurd that sounds 542 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: to most people, the idea of you know, having a 543 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: third party. But like something about this past year and 544 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: Tuesday Night's election has just like broken something like I 545 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 1: don't know, it just seems like the need for a 546 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 1: youified and powerful like democratic socialist movement that actually like 547 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: takes the plate of poor people, the plate of people 548 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: of color, the uncompromising climate policy like seriously, and like 549 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: proposes policy that addresses it. Like seems I don't know what, Like, 550 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: it's just become so clear that when we let the 551 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: ideas like like defunding the police, replacing the police, are 552 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:33,720 Speaker 1: supplementing the police with alternatives that aren't scared armed white guys, 553 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: like running into mental health crises, or like you know, 554 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 1: the Green New Deal, or any socialist ideals. Like when 555 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 1: those get laundered in the Democratic Party and the centrist media, 556 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,760 Speaker 1: they by design get defanged. They get turned into version 557 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: of of themselves that are unappealing, They get shipped on 558 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: in like the coverage, and then like the results that 559 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: get communicated to us. And it just seems like that 560 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 1: the system is more designed to protect against anything like 561 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 1: that happening, anything like socialism happening in America, than it 562 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 1: is to protect against like a authoritarian white supremacists administration 563 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: coming to power and harming people like that. That seems 564 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: to be the lesser of two evils as far as 565 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party and the you know, mainstream centrist media 566 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: is concerned. Yeah, well, it's always going to co opt 567 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: the language of the left, you know, to just say 568 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 1: like because they did they did say all those things. 569 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 1: They just didn't do it. They just didn't actually take it. 570 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 1: Don't do anything said. They take it seriously, but they 571 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 1: don't actually take it seriously. And I think that's the 572 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 1: allure or the like intoxicating appeal sometimes of democratic policies 573 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: is that it it will put the sandwich board out 574 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 1: saying hey, today, we're gonna take these things seriously. And 575 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: it's on the other side, is it psych and were 576 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 1: and again, then that's why I feel like slowly, like 577 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: you're saying, you're now you're you've come to a point 578 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: where you're saying, I feel like I've been taken advantage 579 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 1: of many times over or like this thing's like useless. 580 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: Everyone arrives at that moment at a different time, And 581 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: I think that's what's hard is trying to figure out, 582 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: you know, the best way to begin to exercise that 583 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 1: that power in terms of like a pronounced or defined 584 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 1: group of people who are sort of all moving in 585 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 1: that direction. And I think it'll be it'll be hard 586 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: because I think just like they're there, also, isn't it 587 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 1: as as a robust media apparatus for leftist or progressive 588 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 1: politics that aren't like on the fringes, you know, there's 589 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 1: there's there's there's definitely a place for Democrats and Republicans 590 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: to talk and say they're unfiltered, give their unfiltered thoughts. 591 00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: But where is that for people left of that? Yeah? 592 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 1: And I think that's also a huge problem because most 593 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: people just don't have the opportunity to hear something like 594 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 1: that either, right. I mean it does seem like the 595 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: the fact that there is a generation that is more 596 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: open to socialism than any past generation, that understands media 597 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: better than any of the people in existing places like 598 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,879 Speaker 1: at the you know New York Times like that, that 599 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 1: there's something that could be done. I I just like 600 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 1: I don't that the current system just like doesn't is 601 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,760 Speaker 1: never going to let anything happen, and we need something 602 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 1: to happen. And the Republican Party was like founded in 603 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 1: eighteen fifty four as like a radical like abolitionist party, 604 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 1: and it like you know started winning states pretty quickly 605 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 1: in the presidential election, but it was you know seen 606 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 1: as a fringe party until Abraham Lincoln like actually like 607 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 1: won the fucking White House. And like that's it's a 608 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: thing that can happen if you're facing like a shifting reality, 609 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 1: and we are facing a absolutely shifting reality and a 610 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:18,720 Speaker 1: crisis more than I think we have in the past 611 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:23,359 Speaker 1: hundred years really, and I just think like the time 612 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 1: has go like there there is the need for it, 613 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 1: and just kind of assuming that it can't be done 614 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 1: because it hasn't been done in the past hundred years 615 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 1: is kind of no longer an option. Maybe it's like 616 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 1: the perfect storm with like TikTok and you know, a 617 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 1: decentralization of how people get their news in a certain way, 618 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:50,439 Speaker 1: like could propel a third party. I don't know, let's 619 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: dream about it. Yeah, I mean, the face of the 620 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,319 Speaker 1: electorate is changing and the attitudes are I think we're 621 00:38:56,360 --> 00:39:00,800 Speaker 1: just we're in an interesting middle period where there hasn't 622 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: reached a tipping point numerically for enough people. But also 623 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,279 Speaker 1: you have a lot of people who are turned off 624 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 1: by politics too, because it's just like you know, if 625 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 1: you if you don't really if you're not as engage, 626 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 1: you're gonna be like, yeah, what they're gonna say, they're 627 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 1: gonna raise minimum ways, all right, they didn't like what's 628 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 1: the right point? And for so there there's there's there's 629 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 1: many issues and just you know, but yeah, I'm optimistic 630 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,880 Speaker 1: because as you know, you're pointing out Corney, Like, younger 631 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 1: people definitely are have their eyeland it way more than 632 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: I feel like we did at their age, because we 633 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: we had a relative period of seemingly okay stability, whereas 634 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 1: if you're born in like after two thousand, you've only 635 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: seen like recession after recession, and you're like, what the 636 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: funk is this place? Yeah, there were some you know, 637 00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 1: silver linings in the ship storm that was election night. 638 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: For instance, we critical race theory fears weren't as potent 639 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: as I think people are going to pretend they were. 640 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 1: In a lot of the mainstream, you know, like right 641 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: outside of d C, they had some Loudon County had 642 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: some really wild school board meetings and protests, and yet 643 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: the Democratic candidate won that district by double digits, when 644 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 1: you know, the Republican candidate was like running on the 645 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: ability to not allow people to read Tony Morrison right 646 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: when that was the other thing Younkin did well was 647 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 1: he wore whatever mask in front of whatever audience that 648 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 1: he had to, but he didn't have to be consistent. 649 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: He would be like, yeah, man, we gotta we gotta 650 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: get these pedophiles to stop drinking adrenal chrome to one 651 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 1: crew and be like, I really think that comprehensive immigration 652 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,360 Speaker 1: reform is necessarius from you know what I mean? Like 653 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 1: it was truly just this fun house mirror candidacy. But yeah, 654 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 1: like you're saying, that wasn't you know, Loudon County, Okay, 655 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,919 Speaker 1: it wasn't as pronounced of a win. There were some 656 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 1: wins though, like in South Lake, Texas, home of Holocaust 657 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: both sides SORI, they took some seats there, and also 658 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 1: in a Kansas City suburb there were some wins, but 659 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 1: then they're also some like pronounced defeats, like in Connectic Guildford, 660 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:23,879 Speaker 1: Connecticut that has had also some wild anti critical race 661 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 1: theory school board protests. The anti CRT candidates got shut 662 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,399 Speaker 1: out of their attempts to get on the school board there. 663 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: And in like Iowa, there were some right wing candidates 664 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: on this slate they called the called the Wolves and 665 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: Warriors United, all defeated. Thank god. Yeah, I wonder if 666 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,080 Speaker 1: that's a I wonder if that's based on the guy 667 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 1: who goes around speaking to police forces about why they 668 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,360 Speaker 1: should feel okay about shooting people a warrior. Yeah, the 669 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:59,919 Speaker 1: warrior mentality, and like he specifically like bases his instruction 670 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: around a there are wolves and their sheeps, and all 671 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:08,439 Speaker 1: these people criticizing your sheeps, but you guys are the wolves. 672 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 1: Who better to leave your young children with than a 673 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 1: US collective of wolves and warriors? Actually I had that wrong. 674 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: It's he's they're the sheep dogs and the wolves are 675 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: the bad guys. So I don't I don't want to 676 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:25,319 Speaker 1: miss quote him, because he has really interesting things. Yeah, 677 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,399 Speaker 1: he's he's already got his back against the wall right now. 678 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think there is a lot to say that. 679 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: You know, I think a lot of people were looking 680 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: heavily into that Republicans, like in those areas where they 681 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 1: did win, they're being like, you see, you see that 682 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: was that was we did it with that. But again, 683 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 1: I think a lot of the mood is just sort 684 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:46,800 Speaker 1: of the just the lack of delivery on all things 685 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: promised to people who voted for this administration, and also 686 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 1: just an utter it seemed like, you know, I was 687 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 1: reading some anecdotal stuff like on Twitter from people who 688 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 1: are like involved in some elections saying that in the 689 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 1: gubernatorial and especially like there wasn't as much investment like 690 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 1: in their ground game as there was for Young Ken two, 691 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 1: and there was a lot of like just kind of 692 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: relying on the base to kind of do their thing. 693 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, all of everything's 694 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: moot if no one is talking about the real problems, 695 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:18,959 Speaker 1: because then this is just all a fucking smoke show 696 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 1: and not the hot kind. They did have to invest 697 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 1: in all those rubber stamps up in Buffalo, so they 698 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 1: couldn't exactly afford a robust ground game in Virginia. And uh, 699 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 1: you know, Boston and Cincinnati elected their first Asian American 700 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 1: mayors and Michelle Wou and after pro ball and both 701 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 1: you know, could be rising stars. I do worry about 702 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: like continuing on a path where charismatic candidates we put 703 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 1: all our hopes in them, even though they're like part 704 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,719 Speaker 1: of a system that doesn't want anything to happen. But 705 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, Michelle Woo in particular, has like some cool 706 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: things to say about what she's gonna do. So hey, 707 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: free public transit, you know, like a few other policies. 708 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, and not just those mayoral elections like 709 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:08,919 Speaker 1: in Tucson, Arizona, where their Senator Kirsten Cinema was said 710 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 1: no to fifteen dollar minimum wage in Tucson. The city 711 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: was like, they voted for a fifteen dollar minimum wage. Cool, great, 712 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:19,840 Speaker 1: just doing the bare minimum. I think as it relates 713 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 1: to what a minimum wage should even be, because I 714 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: think as we're for being realistic, it should be like, well, 715 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 1: like maybe fucking thirty dollars and Pittsburgh Ed Gainey became 716 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,240 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's first black marge. I mean, there's there are little 717 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 1: victories here and there, but I think for now, most 718 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:39,839 Speaker 1: of the punditry is around just creating like the doom democrat. 719 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:45,960 Speaker 1: Democrats are fucked thing, and yeah, go off, mainstream, go off, 720 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 1: don't criticize them, don't let's not talk about the problems 721 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:53,800 Speaker 1: that might actually motivates someone to move in a certain directions, 722 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 1: Like what went wrong with that guy? Was he too 723 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:00,400 Speaker 1: dull and boring and not appealing enough? I don't know. 724 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,359 Speaker 1: Just take the logic from your sports section and bring 725 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 1: it over to the election and talk about like wins 726 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:10,319 Speaker 1: and losses and misses. That was a that was a 727 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 1: clear own goal there that they really should have, you know, 728 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 1: guarded against. Yeah, and don't don't bring any class awareness 729 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 1: into it, please, for the love of God, what class 730 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:24,200 Speaker 1: are you talking about, like going to going to class 731 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 1: in school. I don't know what you're talking about. Moving on, Yeah, 732 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 1: I got class man. Yeah, I'm a classy motherfucker. I 733 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:39,240 Speaker 1: wear socks when I fuck. Just a very odd person. 734 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:43,839 Speaker 1: I'm just envisioned.

And 738 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:10,279 Speaker 1: we're back, and I'm still picturing the guy, the guy 739 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 1: the sock garters, the sock garters claiming that you know, 740 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,439 Speaker 1: anybody who wears is that a thing? So that that's 741 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 1: just a purely like old school idea of like what 742 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 1: men's business where it was, right, I think they still exist. 743 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: They still exist for you know, sex workers, people newly married. 744 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 1: Well I get like, I get like, but sock guarters 745 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 1: for your businessman, sock garters.

Sock arters still here, still 752 00:46:56,520 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 1: available on Amazon. And then sock garter bell adjustable two packs, 753 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:06,239 Speaker 1: dirty clip suspenders for your socks. So you know they're 754 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:09,799 Speaker 1: they're still out here, and you know what, I wear them. Okay, 755 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna come out.

They make socks with elastic on 757 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,719 Speaker 1: the top now, so you don't need, you know, I 758 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 1: like like my socks to be straight leg, like straight 759 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:25,640 Speaker 1: leg jeans, just straight up, and they they're just like walking. 760 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,920 Speaker 1: It's like having a hula hoop around each calf, you know. 761 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:36,360 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about Americans food delivery habits. I 762 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,839 Speaker 1: think this is just always interesting whenever. Look, we're not 763 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 1: we're not great admirers of uber eats, but let's be real, 764 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,320 Speaker 1: a lot of people are getting their food from different 765 00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 1: food delivery services. And the data that they've released that 766 00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 1: Takeout published is there's some there's just some interesting things 767 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 1: in there that like, that's always revealing when any company 768 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 1: has this much data to like go through. I just 769 00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 1: want to say first of all that they're saying there 770 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 1: was a increase since the before times of people ordering 771 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 1: cheese fries. I'm not sure what that's saying about anything, 772 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,920 Speaker 1: aside from I can't think of a dish that is 773 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 1: going to show up like less satisfying than it ever 774 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 1: could have. Then, fucking cheese fries. I'm so confused by 775 00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:22,160 Speaker 1: the Yeah, there there's another fry centric data point here, 776 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:28,719 Speaker 1: and they are the worst. What's your referencing is the 777 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,240 Speaker 1: most ordered item is French fries? Now, this is my question. 778 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,839 Speaker 1: Is this by default? Because if you're going to order 779 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 1: some other things, you're like, yeah, man, just get order 780 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: of fries or something, or to get into the minimum 781 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:43,360 Speaker 1: sometimes you have to, you know, get something else. No, 782 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 1: just don't hit the mini. Okay, I see that too, 783 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:50,879 Speaker 1: because I'm also thinking fries don't travel. Well, it's only 784 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,959 Speaker 1: happened in a couple of places where like like where 785 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 1: you can tell the people working there, like, no, do 786 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 1: you need a ventilated container to put it in so 787 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 1: the steam can escape and not just completely neutralize the 788 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:08,879 Speaker 1: crispiness from the frying? I don't know. Then there's also 789 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:12,040 Speaker 1: really something interesting they said, like the most polite states, 790 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,279 Speaker 1: like in terms of people who would use please and 791 00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: thank you. Most in their instructions to the platform were 792 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:22,680 Speaker 1: Montana from mont Oregon, Idaho, and Washington that they're doing 793 00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 1: that in lieu of tipping correct Yeah, middle finger emoji 794 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 1: and the words thank you. And then they also said 795 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:34,760 Speaker 1: that the customers in Asheville, North Carolina, Santa Fe, New Mexico, 796 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:37,799 Speaker 1: and the Florida Keys the most generous tippers.

All restaurants 836 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:22,400 Speaker 1: need to like go do a ride along for a 837 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:27,360 Speaker 1: day at a Korean restaurant. Korean restaurants somehow managed to 838 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:31,560 Speaker 1: make like let the food stay so hot when it arrives. 839 00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:34,680 Speaker 1: They do such a great job with that. Everybody's not 840 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 1: because you live in your Korean town. I mean it 841 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:43,920 Speaker 1: could be, but it's like it only travels like a mile. 842 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:47,719 Speaker 1: They should try that. What are they doing? What's the 843 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:52,280 Speaker 1: secret Korean restaurants? But it's not like it gets here quickly, 844 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 1: So I don't know. Maybe maybe it is, maybe it 845 00:52:55,520 --> 00:53:00,160 Speaker 1: is just a matter of distance, but they figure it's 846 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 1: something out. Look, look, I get monster rose. Sometimes you 847 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:06,439 Speaker 1: just want to hurt. Yeah, but you want to eat 848 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:09,919 Speaker 1: up just a fucking police baton that's been deep fried. 849 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:16,719 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's hurt my stomach.

Yeah, we should get to the Thanksgiving sides. 855 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:39,000 Speaker 1: I would just say what one thing in defensive motsticks 856 00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:41,000 Speaker 1: is you can put them in the microwave and they'll 857 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:44,759 Speaker 1: be okay, whereas fries that that doesn't work, no toaster oven, 858 00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 1: I can kind of if they're thick enough, you can 859 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 1: kind of bring fries back to life in a total 860 00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 1: and also air fryer. That might be what's happened in 861 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:54,279 Speaker 1: the Rise of the air fryer. People are realizing you 862 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:59,319 Speaker 1: can just you can feed your dog motsticks. Probably don't 863 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:03,400 Speaker 1: want to do that, Yeah, okay, just another point of view, Well, 864 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,280 Speaker 1: I don't want to upset my dog.

You know that's how that's how 868 00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 1: Dy gets down, all right, Yeah, and then that we 869 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:26,200 Speaker 1: have another food map. You have another map with America's 870 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 1: favorite filling the blank. This time we are looking at 871 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving sides. I believe we have done this before in 872 00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:37,879 Speaker 1: the past. I am curious if there's any carry over 873 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:40,799 Speaker 1: from from the past. But let's let's get into it. 874 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:43,759 Speaker 1: What are we seeing here? What surprises us? I mean, 875 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 1: I it seems like more than anything, baked potato or 876 00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 1: mashed potatoes seem to be one of the most popular things. 877 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 1: But just across the board, what is really interesting to 878 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 1: me that in Missouri and in Minnesota, the two big 879 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:04,719 Speaker 1: sides our charcouterie tray. I am and I was like, 880 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 1: are people looking up things they don't know how to 881 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:11,879 Speaker 1: make or things they don't know what it means? It's 882 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:15,520 Speaker 1: actually the stupidest the stupidest states, because like people in 883 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:18,799 Speaker 1: California like mashed potatoes. How do I do that? Right? 884 00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 1: But I've never seen a charcoutery tray at a Thanksgiving 885 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 1: my entire time. In Minnesota, I don't think, right, maybe 886 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:32,160 Speaker 1: that's family specific. I see like little finger foods, right, 887 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 1: I've been to people's houses where like they'll do like 888 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 1: some little stuffed mushrooms or like little things to nibble on. 889 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:41,719 Speaker 1: To get you through to the main event, like a 890 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:43,880 Speaker 1: very that's when I've been to like a very considerate 891 00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:46,279 Speaker 1: personal and I say considerate to people who show up 892 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:49,799 Speaker 1: high as ship and are very hungry already those kinds 893 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,360 Speaker 1: of situations. Finger foods for sure, but like, are we 894 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 1: talking about like cheese cracker little meat kind of ship 895 00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:00,840 Speaker 1: because I don't see that. Yeah, it could just be 896 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 1: that they are more likely to have big like gatherings 897 00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:08,280 Speaker 1: and sharkutery tray is something that's easy to google because 898 00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,200 Speaker 1: you don't even need like instructions, you just need a 899 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 1: picture basically. There's also another thing too, where like there's 900 00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:19,680 Speaker 1: levels to it, right, because there are people who are like, 901 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:24,440 Speaker 1: I've been to Europe, this is not and then you'll 902 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:26,680 Speaker 1: go to Ralphs and ship and I've seen some ships 903 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 1: like bors hash charcuterie tray and it's like loosen bolone. 904 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,279 Speaker 1: So there's levels to it. So they could just be like, 905 00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:36,320 Speaker 1: oh yeah, im meat and cheese tray, but the language 906 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,520 Speaker 1: is elevating it, and I can for sure see my 907 00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:41,680 Speaker 1: aunts being like, yeah, I know this this tray of 908 00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 1: like cooking crackers. That's a shark good tray. No, that's not. 909 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:53,799 Speaker 1: I do want to give one piece of evidence that 910 00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:56,279 Speaker 1: this map does know what the fun they're talking about. 911 00:56:56,360 --> 00:57:00,840 Speaker 1: Because hash Brown casserole is a reigning champion in Kentucky 912 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:04,880 Speaker 1: and Tennessee. That is something that I've experienced. A shout 913 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:08,759 Speaker 1: out to Marissa, one of my longtime friends who makes that, 914 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:14,680 Speaker 1: and she's from Kentucky and it is fucking I feel 915 00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:19,120 Speaker 1: like the recipe. Yeah, all the things I was looking 916 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 1: out on here that really caught my eye because I 917 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:26,640 Speaker 1: love that combination of words. Let me get off of 918 00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:30,080 Speaker 1: the businessman sock Garter's board that I was just on 919 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 1: because I can't remember exactly what it is other than 920 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 1: that it is fucking really good and like I usually 921 00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 1: eat three helpings. So Cracker Barrel offers a recipe for 922 00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,680 Speaker 1: hash brown cast role. It's basically cheese and hash Brown's. 923 00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:47,720 Speaker 1: I think she has some like bacon in there. Some 924 00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:52,080 Speaker 1: it's just so good and it's crispy and soft and 925 00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 1: hot and always always good. This is like a hybrid, 926 00:57:56,440 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 1: like if mac and cheese and mashed potatoes from exactly 927 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:06,560 Speaker 1: this would be there by side racial baby. Yeah yeah 928 00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 1: that this is fantastic. Yeah that one. And then white 929 00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:12,440 Speaker 1: gravy also caught my eye and I think it was 930 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:15,880 Speaker 1: that Arkansas. But is that just me country gravy? I 931 00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:18,440 Speaker 1: don't know.

If it's just stuffing stuff in with gravy.
