19
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: out here. But um, I'm I'm locked down. I'm wearing

20
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: my mask. So I'm trying to set an example. You

21
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 1: mask adoption is not is not Yeah, no it is.

22
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: No one's wearing a mask here. I would say three

23
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: people saw sent the other day, So you're not if anything,

24
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: you're you're like the example parents are gonna point out

25
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: to not be like that counter culture person like you

26
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: see one of them. Yeah, one of the sciences. It is.

27
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: It is weird word. Almost seems like you're making some

28
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: sort of ridiculous statement. But I know I'm you know

29
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like, but I'm right rice case for once,

30
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: this is the right statement to make. So yeah, it's odd.

31
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 1: It's like people just like being like the hottest beach

32
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: of direct sunlight and I was like, no, I don't

33
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: wear sunscreen. You're like, I'm just gonna do this, And

34
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 1: it's not a statement. It's just quite literally the bare

35
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 1: minimum to keep myself safe and sudden how if that's

36
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 1: a statement, right, But or if you could catch their

37
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: sunburn like it was an aerosol in the air, you

38
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 1: know it would be the same thing, right. The I

39
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: think New Jersey is actually like looking good, sitting pretty

40
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: in terms of uh their overall numbers. So uh, we'll

41
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: look in the next the next couple of weeks, What

42
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: the hell am I doing this thing on? I feel

43
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 1: like an idiot? What is something from your search history

44
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: that is revealing about who you are? Uh So I

45
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: had to go back a little bit to figure this

46
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: out because I'm googling just random things all day for work,

47
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 1: and one that I came up with was Garth Brooks

48
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: breakfast Bowl because I saw a tweet that mentioned the

49
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: idea of So basically it was a tweet about who

50
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: would you be quarantining with? This person said, oh man,

51
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: I'll be eating Garth Brooks's breakfast bowl every day. It's like,

52
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: what is that? What kind of sexual maneuver is that? Unfortunately, unfortunately,

53
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: it is not at all a sexual maneuver. It is, though,

54
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: a breakfast that Garth has contrived, and is Intricia Yearwood's cookbook,

55
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: whereby you take scrambled eggs and sausage and bacon and

56
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: twart aalini and put it all just She's totini. Sometimes

57
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: apparently he will cook up fries or some port of

58
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: fried potato to go with it too, And that is

59
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: the Garth Brooks breakfast Bowl. And it's so American that

60
00:03:54,240 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: it hurts and the soul and the arteries. Yeah, violent

61
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: and mash up of food too. It's like totalini. Apparently

62
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: he puts tortalini in like so many different things. And Tricia,

63
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: you're what has apparently given up on telling him, no,

64
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: you can't do that. He'll just be like, oh, you're

65
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: making a breakfast keys, throw some tortalini and there it's like, no,

66
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: you're you're wilding out Garth Brooks and she does it

67
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: and it's delicious. Apparent. You take your coffee black, yeah black,

68
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: with some tortellini in there. Please just squeeze the pasta,

00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 1: get the cheese in their stirred in and then let

Speaker 1: the pasta float all you guys. You guys are gonna say,

71
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: domo arigato when you have some of Garth's famous tortos shemi, Okay,

72
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: it's around. You just slice it so thin and then

73
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 1: you don't even know, you don't even know, you don't

74
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: even know. Oh man, Garth Brooks one of my favorite.

75
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: Uh you know that there's some famous people who are

76
00:04:53,320 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: just basically a walking, talking, uh psychological experiment who of

77
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 1: like just you know, they've grown up in such strange

78
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 1: uh circumstance. There exists in such strange circumstances because of

79
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: how famous they are. Uh, they're just any video, any

80
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: interview with him, any video he posts of himself. He's

81
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: he's just like on a different planet. Um in a

82
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 1: in a very entertaining way. Hey man, Yeah, he's like

83
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: he's just like gas lit by his own success. You know,

84
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: hey man, I don't even know where I am. But

85
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: so as a black kid, I didn't really grow up

86
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,359
Speaker 1: with grape books. The first memory I have of his

87
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: existence was him on the old nineties show Muppets Tonight,

88
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: the very short lived show, where he was the guest.

89
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 1: He they the conceit was he was supposed to do

90
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: a country song for them, and he just never really did,

91
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: And at one point he finally agrees to and he

92
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: goes out, he performs If I were a rich man

93
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: from further on the roof, you said he was going

94
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: to do a country song. Yeah, he didn't say which

95
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 1: country there you garth? Uh? Well, I wonder if that

96
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 1: was around the Chris Gaines time when he was just

97
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 1: upsetting all audience expectations. This this what hap been around

98
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: like nineties, So I don't remember when the Chris Gaines

99
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: thing was, but I think it was a little bit

100
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: before a little bit after that. Yeah, I think that

101
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: was my first memory of like realizing he was a

102
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: big deal, because the Chris Gaines thing was like I

103
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 1: was like, oh, you can do that, I mean really yeah.

104
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I'm like, hey, okay, yeah,

105
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: you know, guys are like some fiddler on the roof.

106
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna beat Tevier very cool, um West. But just

107
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: the like that that is he was already on some

108
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: next level, uh thinking like galaxy brain fame. When he's like,

109
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: all right, I'm at the peak of my It's like

110
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's level, where he's just like, I'm at the

111
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: peak of my powers as a country artist. I will

112
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: change my name, change my appearance, and uh do a

113
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 1: really wild particle. Change the name. That's just part of

114
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: being famous people do. Beyonce was briefly Sasha Fierce, and

115
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: that's an alter ego that you have. It's fine. But

116
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: changing the look was the will look, the the genre,

117
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 1: the um and and insisting on introducing Chris Gaines as

118
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: the musical guest on the episode of SNL that he hosted.

119
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: Um but this's just me playing peekaboo with reality man. Yeah,

120
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: I moved to UH to Kentucky in the nineties and

121
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: that he was like I was fully unprepared for the

122
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: fact that Garth Brooks was basically like Michael Jackson at

123
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: that point. Like it was like Thriller Thriller era Michael

124
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: Jackson for people who had had the jack trucks and

125
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: cowboy hats. And finally, what is a myth? What is

126
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: something you know it to be false that people think

127
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: it's true or vice versa. I would say a myth

128
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: is that mouse chaps work, because mouse chaps do not work.

129
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: I have like a gazillion of them around my apartment

130
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 1: and um yeah, that mouse was not getting caught in

131
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: any of them. But you asked us to call you

132
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: the human mouse trap when we started this call right

133
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: that you just grabbed them with your bare hands. Sat

134
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: just Ozzy Osbourne. But the mouse version, that is uh.

135
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: I've been dealing with mice for I mean, you know,

136
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: like I've had mice in my apartment like once, like

137
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: four years ago. But ever since the pandemic started, there's

138
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 1: so many there's the infestation of pess is just through

139
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: the roof. I heard, you know, because of the pandemic,

140
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: mice don't have food to eat, so they're just kind

141
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: of going to all these apartments. That was like the

142
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: big story in New York those first two weeks were

143
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: like the literal rat wars that were happening in Manhattan

144
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: because like once the food drives up, they go and

145
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 1: arch of other food and then they turned they turned

146
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 1: up on some other rat turf and this rat war. Yeah. Yeah.

147
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: Apparently Creatown is like New York, right, which, yeah, it

148
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 1: is kind of like New York. Probably the closet thing

149
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: we have just sort of like with like more high

150
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: rise like apartments and like sort of like architecture. Yeah. Yeah, Yeah,

151
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: I'm having some battles with with the flies. The flies

152
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: coming in. I got one of the electrified fly swatters

153
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: yeah exe the executioner, Wow, I didn't. And it comes

154
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: with the hood that you just put over your head.

155
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:54,679
Speaker 1: Trilliums over here, flies up. Yeah. I like the salt shotgun.

156
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 1: That one is more. That one's fun, yeah, because that

157
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 1: just like basically like you cock it once and it

158
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 1: just sure. I mean it's probably the least humane because

159
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: it's just like destroying their wings, like with the buckshot

160
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: of like the grains of salt. But this is the

161
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: this is the world where in right now? So I

162
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: have not seen this. I'm googling it right now, like

163
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 1: look for It's like, I don't know fly salt shotgun.

164
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: That's uh, that's one that I've never successfully got a

165
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: fly with the bug as salt as it's called. It's

166
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: probably made by some fucking former Blackwater child murder, so

167
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: I should probably not talk about it. Like I can't

168
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: imagine the backstory to a thing where guys like, what

169
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: if you applied the principles of the buck shot in

170
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: a shotgun that you could just you know, use at

171
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: home and kill a fly with man because that ship

172
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: is cool on a on an insect. Do you have

173
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: one of these? Do you have the holster? No? I

174
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: I had it um like at an old office and

175
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: at another like at another apartment. I had like someone

176
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: had it and I would use it. But I now

177
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: at the moment, I am bug a saltless. I just

178
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: I use I try and use um either my bare

179
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 1: hands or a towel. The bare hands one is like

180
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 1: like Jack said that that old Clyde Frasier anecdote man

181
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: was so cool caught a fly with his bare hands

182
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: and then let it go. And I was trying to

183
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: press my uh my partner her majesty with it, and

184
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: she just thinks it's so stupid. I caught him in

185
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: my hand. Did you see? Did you see? And she's like,

186
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: you do catch on with your hands? Oh yeah, I

187
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: can catch a fly with my hands with one hand, Yes, yes,

188
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: I could get him. You are cool, But but here's

189
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: the thing. Watch me spending forty five minutes listening to

190
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 1: Bodego boys in my headphones, like running around my house.

191
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 1: So it's not like I just come in and snatched

192
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: the ship out. She's like, yeah, fool, you wasted half

193
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: a day and also outside and release your hand. I

194
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 1: bet you didn't get that ship. Cut to me opening

195
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: my hands. I didn't get that ship. My friend's wife

196
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: fun of him on time for doing the thing where yeah,

197
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: he would like grab it and then like release his

198
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: hand very slowly, like the I've done that so many times.

199
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I want Fraser uh from the nineteen seventies Knicks,

200
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 1: one of the more underrated NBA players uh and the

201
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: most underrated announcer because he's just uh absurd, right, but

202
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: he uh he would just walk into a room and

203
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 1: slowly reach out and grab a fly, shake it in

204
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: his hand, release it, and he was like, and kids

205
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: thought that was cool. I was like, I think that

206
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 1: ship's cool as hell. Man, Like that was in one

207
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: of his books of like how to be Cool. It's like,

208
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: not everybody can do that, but also nobody has a

209
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: fucking like handspan of like fourteen inches. Probably he did like,

210
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: don't discount the size of an envy, Like any man

211
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,839
Speaker 1: over six ft three or four is hand size. It's

212
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: he gets out of control. Yeah. Yeah, that was one

213
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,599
Speaker 1: thing that I feel like was I hedn't fully appreciated

214
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: about Jordan until the last dance was just hand sized,

215
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: like the his hand just reached all the way around

216
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: that ball. Right. Um. Also flies in the seventies notoriously slow. Yeah,

217
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: we wouldn't know. Actually, that's that's one of those things

218
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: that we would have no idea flies were speeding up.

219
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: It turns out that the guy who created the bug

220
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 1: assault is a is from southern California, is a surfer

221
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: in yoga, and he's just like an inventor basically. But

222
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't need to do much of

223
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: a deep dive into this kind of thing that I

224
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: feel like all roads lead to darkness. Tune in tomorrow

225
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: when that guy's our guest. I feel like you really

226
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: need to invest in one of these racket smiles. I know,

227
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: but I feel like every time there's one of those arounds,

228
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: people end up hitting each other with them. Oh, I've

229
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: never done it. That's the that's where that's where she

230
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: gets it goes left. With those electric rackets, you start

231
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: smacking people with them. But I've I've managed not to

232
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 1: hit anybody with Oh no, I mean intentionally, Like it

233
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: turns into a drunken game of I'm gonna wave the

234
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: electrified tennis racket at you, right, I'd imagine it does.

235
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: It's a spark satisfying though. When you hit the fly

236
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: with the electric tennis racket, it's like you hear a

237
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: loud pop, which is like what killing flies should always

238
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: feel like. There should always be a lab pop like

239
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: your um And then you get sometimes it'll stay on

240
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: the racket and you just get it sparking. Yeah, because

241
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: so I'm not I'm not doing it like needlessly to

242
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 1: towards the fly. It's actually like sometimes you'll hit the

243
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 1: fly with the shock, it'll hit the ground and and

244
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 1: if you don't like go and get the tissue right

245
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: away to come pick it up. It'll get back up.

246
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: It just like stuns it for a second, right, but

247
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: it gets there, it starts smoking. And then you get

248
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: your little glass too about you start free basing that

249
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: smoke up round flash. Um, sorry, that's so gross, but

250
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: here in the two I'll be like yeah, And then

251
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: then she gets smoking. I'm like, Okay, I thought I

252
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: was bad when I was like, I'm shooting the ship

253
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: out of their wings and they're fun. Everyone has a

254
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 1: weird way of dealing with insects. You know, what is

255
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: something you think is overrated? Well, funny you mentioned the

256
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: rich people begging to pay more taxes at the beginning

257
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: of the show. Um, I've been thinking a lot about,

258
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: you know, rich people doing good things as being overrated.

259
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 1: I mean, there's been all these conspiracies about about Bill Gates,

260
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: which obviously I don't buy um, and I celebrate what

261
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: the Gates Foundation does and I'm impressed by by his work.

262
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: But the real conspiracy is that you have someone who

263
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: has tens of billions of dollars in the first place

264
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: and can run some kind of shadow mixture of the

265
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: world's health organization and the state departments. Like, I'm glad

266
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: he's doing it because in the application of everybody else

267
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: doing this, it's good that it's happening, But like, how

268
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: could it not be? How can it be that, you know,

269
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: the United States, there's incredibly rich and powerful country, has

270
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: basically let an oligarchy, as you mentioned, take control of

271
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: the functions of the state. I mean, it's no it's

272
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: no surprise that that people are so angry. Yeah, I

273
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: mean he has lobbied, his company has lobbied all like

274
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: people who are billionaires have chosen to be billionaires, um,

275
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: and they are choosing that and the solutions of them,

276
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: you know, being basically all garks who solve other people's

277
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: problems is over, you know, having a healthy social safety

278
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: net in its place, um, one way or another. You know,

279
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:13,239
Speaker 1: obviously Bill Gates can't snap his fingers and suddenly we

280
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 1: have a great social safety net. But along the way

281
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: he's made lots of decisions that you know, our our

282
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 1: counter to a strong social safety net. And I also

283
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 1: think it's it's unreasonable to expect people to act strongly

284
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: against their own interests. I mean, that's why we have

285
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: a state in the first place. It's supposed to be,

286
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: you know, to balance the wealth of society in a

287
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,880
Speaker 1: fair way. And so the idea that it's a solution

288
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: to have people who are grossly enriched themselves volunteer to

289
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: de enrich themselves, and mean, it seems to be a

290
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: little bit, a little bit behind the sky. Um, So

291
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 1: I wonder if those are like the wealthy people there.

292
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 1: They seem to be all the wealthy people who didn't

293
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 1: manage to get their hands into politics or like to

294
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,159
Speaker 1: get them there. They're like, I mean, I could have

295
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: done it like the other wealthy people, which is to

296
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 1: just you know, blow out the House and Senate with

297
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: their money and and get their jollys off like that. Alright, guys,

298
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,880
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a quick break and we'll be right back.

299
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: And we're back. And then finally, uh, Ivanka is out

300
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: here with I mean, at least somebody in this family's

301
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 1: you know, bringing out some new ideas. You know, where

302
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: where's the where's the fresh thinking? So basically her responses,

303
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 1: I think there's this thought among conservatives and white liberals

304
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: also that part of the problem is that unemployment benefits

305
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: are too good, and so nobody wants to go out

306
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: and get a new job. So now that the coronavirus

307
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,919
Speaker 1: wrecked the economy, nobody wants to go out and get

308
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: a new job because the unemployment benefits are too good.

309
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: So like now you know, people are just gonna sit

310
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 1: at home. Uh. And so if Anka uh stepped in

311
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: a hero and said, guys, try something new. If you

312
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: if you lost your job, just try something new, try

313
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: a different career. Um on Bastil Day, on the day

314
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: that she said, let them eat cake cake that looks

315
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 1: like a chicken cutlet. Yes, oh yeah, out of touch.

316
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: But this is the culture. This is the culture of

317
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: people in power in this country. They I've not heard

318
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: a single word, uh from most of these people, I

319
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: would say, of people on the right that actually have

320
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 1: any kind of like consideration for like the humanity of

321
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: it all. Because even just because her dad is president,

322
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,679
Speaker 1: like she literally has a job because her she went

323
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 1: to Wharton because her dad went there. So trying a

324
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: new angle, Yeah, well I mean, but yeah, my dad

325
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: did go here, but that's not why I went. Also

326
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 1: independently believed it was a school that my I could

327
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: get into without doing anything so exactly, m dude, this

328
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: is what are they going to do? Like what the

329
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: clock is ticking? Like the only way I feel like

330
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: they even know this from a strategic standpoint is making

331
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 1: ship darker isn't going to bring more people out or

332
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: maybe in the way that they think, like if they're

333
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 1: going to try and get more people to soften up

334
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: to the idea of voting reelecting him, then you would

335
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 1: need to see some bit of compassion because it seems

336
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 1: like despite what your party alignment or allegiances are, there

337
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: are a lot of people are looking at this situation

338
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: like this has We're not handling this properly at all.

339
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: I think they think if they d I've people back

340
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 1: to work and into the streets, that they can get

341
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: the capitalism machine going again, because then once everybody's busy,

342
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: once everybody is out and socializing, then maybe Trump's America

343
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 1: won't seem so bad to the racists who are questioning it,

344
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 1: because everybody else knows that ship has been shipped. But

345
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: to racist white folks who are like, we're voting for

346
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,679
Speaker 1: white supremacy, if they're now struggling and below, you know,

347
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,680
Speaker 1: even further below the poverty line and they already were,

348
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,359
Speaker 1: and they have nothing to do but look at the

349
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 1: news and how their president is handling ship. Then they

350
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: can't be distracted by the fact that he's terrible. If

351
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 1: you're a white person in America, to a certain extent,

352
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,439
Speaker 1: when Trump was first elected, you could ignore everything that

353
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 1: he was doing because it largely wasn't affecting you. And

354
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 1: now it's affecting everyone. So I think they're like, we

355
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 1: gotta get people back to work. We gotta get them distracted.

356
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: They gotta they're watching too much news. It's like we're

357
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: saying yesterday, like if they if these people were actually

358
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 1: good with their money, they would have looked at the

359
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 1: lowest cost version of getting through the pandemic to get

360
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: their businesses going again, rather than just like this reactionary

361
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 1: thing of like don't stop believing please, And now it's

362
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 1: like just getting us in all kinds of ship where

363
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: now we're gonna have to back our teachers, um and

364
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: like our neighbors, like we need. There's so many other things,

365
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: like the opening of schools is just like so cynical

366
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 1: that it's just you you can't you almost like it's

367
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 1: hard for you to believe that people are gonna sunk

368
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: around the lives of children, like really, I mean, I

369
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 1: mean they already did with the way they don't actually

370
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: tackle a lot of the mass shooting problems that happened

371
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 1: in schools. But even like with the math Betsy Devas

372
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: was doing, some people did like the calculations based on

373
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: like you know, like it could just be this small number,

374
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 1: it was still dwarf, like it was blowing out any

375
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 1: numbers that have happened with school shootings in like the

376
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 1: history of this country. M hm. I'm waiting on people

377
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: to realize that the government doesn't care about them, Like,

378
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 1: is it gonna happen? Is it gonna happen? I'm not sure.

379
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,439
Speaker 1: It's actually quite insane. So I mean, we'll see. Ship Avanca.

380
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: What what should I try? What you say I should

381
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 1: try try something, try something new. She ain't had no

382
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 1: suggestions working. Why do you try it? Making money? Why

383
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: don you terrible guidance counselor? Of just I go to

384
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: the guidance counsel I'm like, so what should I do?

385
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: She's like, oh, no, girl, who'st I mean, essentially, if

386
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: she is the guidance counselor the student that comes in,

387
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 1: which is working America going, Hey man, I'm all kinds

388
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 1: of funcked up. I don't know what the funk is

389
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 1: going on, Like, I just see no way out of this.

390
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 1: There's barely any hope coming out of the White House. Uh,

391
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: and I'm really failing to grasp onto something that could

392
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 1: sustain me in an actual tangible way. M hmm, Well

393
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 1: have you thought about finding something new? Yeah? Something new? Yeah,

394
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 1: I got a pamphlet for something new. It's like one

395
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 1: of those pieces that phone trump. Never mind, just just

396
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: go smoke weed. By the fucking what are those? What

397
00:23:53,440 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 1: are those? Transportables? Portables, portables, portable classrooms. That's when you knew, like, well,

398
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 1: I remember after the earthquake, half my school became portable

399
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: because after buildings are so fucked up, like our parking

400
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 1: lot became our new school. Shout out to night coming.

401
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah you guys ready for for some truth bombs? Who um,

402
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: so sorry the fact that we're going that we're you know,

403
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: we're about to talk about how people think wait fair

404
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 1: you get just what I need is is involved with

405
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:37,479
Speaker 1: human trafficking. Um, I can't stop. I don't know, like

406
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: I laugh because I'm so shocked and sad because I

407
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: really is the only thing I can do. Otherwise, I'm like,

408
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: oh man, so many brains are rotten like and are

409
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 1: thinking they got superpowers to connect these you know, see

410
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: the fucking matrix somehow out of nowhere, scrolling on fucking

411
00:24:55,280 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 1: chrome all day. Yeah, they so. So Basically, somebody noticed that, um,

412
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: there were some cabinets, uh, and you know, dressers and

413
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 1: various pieces of furniture that cost more than they should

414
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 1: They cost five figures. And they also noticed that some

415
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 1: of those cabinets had girls names like you know, Karen

416
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: Janet Uh. And they searched the database and noticed that

417
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: some of those are the names of missing children, and

418
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: boom bang bing Uh. They drew the conclusion that this

419
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: is how the deep state cabal is smuggling child slaves.

420
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 1: Now is is inside of these cabinets? I guess is

421
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: they moved on from pizza parlors. They realized they've been

422
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,160
Speaker 1: found out and moved on, and they're smarter. They've gotten

423
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: even smarter than to do it at a Ping pong

424
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: pizza restaurant. Uh that you know, doing it there in

425
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: the in full public view. Now they're smarter. Now it's

426
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 1: on wayfair and it's the kid's names and you can

427
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: just order it like a cabinet. That's how they've done it.

428
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: Really is sort of to the point of like not

429
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 1: being able to say you're wrong. You arrive at this,

430
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 1: you get this kind of momentum where you end up

431
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: at a Wayfair page and go, oh shit, hold on

432
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: the Anya Shorty cabinet is ten nine dollars. This is

433
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 1: how they're doing it. Because there's on your way here.

434
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: You have not for once ever doubted or even took

435
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 1: the second to to question what you believe, whether that's

436
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: you know, based on anything tangible or real. So the

437
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 1: furniture they were looking at is more expensive because it

438
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: is commercial industrial. So they were looking at like home prices,

439
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: what what a cabinet like that would cost in in uh,

440
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 1: the home department, But they were actually in the commercial

441
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: department where the cabinets are bigger, essentially, and they just

442
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: ignored that fact. Use there it's like for a fucking

443
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: not for your home. It's just it just happens to

444
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 1: also be on way Wayfair. So but they just ignored

445
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: that detail, and that one detail could have cleared it up,

446
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 1: but instead details are for cowards keep drinking the cool aid, sheep,

447
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: where your mask? You're going to hell? So because obviously

448
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: human traffickers love including clues and Easter eggs that could

449
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 1: lead to them being caught like batman villains. Uh yeah,

450
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:46,120
Speaker 1: So this started with like a I think it's a

451
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 1: interior design influencer, and then another lifestyle influencer picked it up.

452
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: But it's the influencers, man. But I honestly this is

453
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 1: one of those stories where I look at it and

454
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, so what do Like? Is the internet

455
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: just bad? Do we just give up on the Internet? Like,

456
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,120
Speaker 1: how do we do? What do we do with this?

457
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 1: It's such a mess. And that's such a big broad

458
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: question to consider because we have almost too much access

459
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:21,679
Speaker 1: to again going back to the beginning, uncontextualized information, and

460
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: without that context, the human brain fucking loves to find

461
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,199
Speaker 1: pictures in random noise. That's how we were able to

462
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: look up at the stars in all of their millions,

463
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: go that's a bear with a gintass tail, Like what

464
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 1: what it's up there? And so we want to be

465
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 1: able to find like things that will make help us

466
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 1: make sense of things. But because there is so much

467
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: more noise than our brains are used to. It's becoming

468
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: easier for people to pick out those random patterns and

469
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 1: just run with them. And without the context you need

470
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: to be like, oh, that's for industrial, that's our industrial.

471
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: Great cabinets you're storing like giant like I don't know,

472
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: collections of tools for a huge as farm in one

473
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 1: of these cabinets, not your doll collection for your little girl.

474
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 1: Then you can't you find the patterns that are wrong,

475
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: and you can't admit that those patterns are wrong, and

476
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 1: that that's fun and it's exciting to think that you've

477
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 1: just cracked the code that is secretly like speaking of

478
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 1: the matrix that you've seen, really that you've cracked the

479
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 1: code and be like gotten a unique insight into the

480
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: secret that is going on behind the scenes of the

481
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: entire world. That is powerful. That's a powerful drug and

482
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: they don't want to give up on it. And so okay,

483
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 1: if this was you know, two percent of the population

484
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: that was just like off in a corner somewhere, that

485
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 1: that would be one thing. But first of all, the

486
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 1: president is the president, the actual president of these United States,

487
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: is trying to fan these flames because there some of

488
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: his must staunch supporters. Uh there's also a writer. Jam

489
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: pointed out this Newsweek article, uh that the title was

490
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 1: here are some of the celebrities who sell products on Wayfair,

491
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: which you would only be interested in for one reason,

492
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: as evidence that this conspiracy theory is true. This came

493
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: out after all this or like during the fervor, during

494
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: the fervor to exploit like yeah, yeah, totally s c O.

495
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: Like they see, uh, this theory lighting lighting up in

496
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 1: terms of traffic, and they were somebody on their staff

497
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 1: is you know with it? You know what I mean

498
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 1: because I see it everywhere. I see all that. I

499
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 1: see the I see the stencils and shipped on the

500
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 1: street in l A, like all the where we go.

501
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, like I see that on the shot.

502
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 1: It's it's around, which is very It's funny because you

503
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 1: don't know notice it to you really looking what the Okay,

504
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: that's what that is. Uh shout out to the San

505
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: Fernando Valley. But this whole it's interesting, like the it's

506
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: like the same moment article. I'm sorry, I had to like, oh,

507
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 1: like we're talking and I'm reading through it and like

508
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: they up top they talk about how all of this is,

509
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 1: you know, bullshit, and how in another article from Newsweek,

510
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 1: it's all debunked, but they still put together this article about, well,

511
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: these are the celebrity here are the celebrities who sell

512
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: through wayfairly. Yeah, no one is looking up this information

513
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: unless they want to know who to shame. So I'm

514
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 1: very confused by this. Bring Lionel Richie into this. Come on, man,

515
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 1: who to shame? Chie didn't do anything? Scenario shame, like

516
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: the worst case scenario, you know, cute like these are

517
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,479
Speaker 1: the people who showed up at the pizza parlor with

518
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: automatic weapons. Like, wow, trishia Year would bring it all back?

519
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: What a yeah? You think Garth Brooks only puts breakfast

520
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 1: in that bowl? Come on boy, yeah, wake ups, it's

521
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: all fingertips. It ain't totally it's it's totally okay. That's

522
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 1: you don't real are the It's like kind of the

523
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: same energy though that was like in the early Internet

524
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: when like the Matrix sequels are coming out and like

525
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 1: Lost and like people trying to fucking find Easter eggs

526
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: before the writers do. It's like that same energy that

527
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: I feel like when I'm looking at it. To your

528
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 1: point of like the high like, oh, ship, I don't

529
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: know who the mayor of Vingian is actually supposed to

530
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: be in Matrix reloaded, Okay, we're Vingians? Were these Christian

531
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: kings that were in like, dude, that what I don't know.

532
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. It was the reference, but that's not

533
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 1: like the basis for a conspiracy theory slash religion moving forward.

534
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: And but that's the kind energy you go around and

535
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: people like I do. I figured, I don't know. I

536
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 1: read up on it, and that's what this is, so

537
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: therefore this is what it means. And this that's also

538
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: part of why I think that being right is overrated.

539
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: Like sometimes I watch shows with like a long narrative

540
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 1: ark and some sort of central mystery, and I'll try

541
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 1: and guess along with it. That's part of the fun.

542
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 1: But when I'm wrong, it's like not like, oh, well

543
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 1: this was bullshit. I don't believe in this existence of

544
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 1: this movie anymore, like oh, okay, cool, I see what

545
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: they did there. I get how they got to that

546
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 1: point and why I was wrong. That's actually it's lost,

547
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: in which case I was, no, I rejected this, this

548
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: is right, and I turned my back on this. Now

549
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 1: that's fair. I mean, with fiction, sometimes your ideas are

550
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 1: better than the ones they end up going with for

551
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: various reasons. Yes, yes, uh in when it comes to

552
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: interpretations of reality, like that's yeah, it's just a bunch

553
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: of Another thing this reminds me of is the fact

554
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: that the deadliest civil war in human history was a

555
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 1: cult in China, the thought that their leader was Jesus's brother,

556
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 1: and twenty million people died. So like, I don't know,

557
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 1: it seems like this is one of those frog in

558
00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 1: a pot, like getting hotter and hotter until the water

559
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 1: is boiling things, where like if you had told me

560
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 1: two years ago that Q was as popular as it

561
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 1: is and that the president was openly embracing it and

562
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: that Q ideology was like as murderous and like openly

563
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:22,879
Speaker 1: like we're ready to rise up if yeah, I act

564
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 1: out real world violence, if Trump is like taken out

565
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 1: of office, like that would be caused for immediate and

566
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 1: profuse alarm, And instead it feels like it's just something

567
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: that like feels like a series of ingredients from the

568
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: past two hundred news cycles converging and it's just like man,

569
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 1: but it's really like those are dangerous elements. Yeah, Meanwhile,

570
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,399
Speaker 1: it's MS thirteen and you know, open borders and you're

571
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,879
Speaker 1: not gonna have windows because of Joe Biden's Green Revolution plan.

572
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,839
Speaker 1: That was what is the emphasis of this administration when

573
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: we're also looking, you know, just comparing the language always

574
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 1: of what the threats are, it's always it's always people

575
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 1: of color, and it's always people who aren't you know,

576
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: cis head Christian American people. And we should say that,

577
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,400
Speaker 1: I mean, there's totally good reason to be paying attention

578
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 1: for people to be have their antennae up about uh,

579
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 1: sex trafficking and human trafficking like that is a thing

580
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: that we're finding out is just all over the place,

581
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: especially among the powerful with Jeffrey Epstein, Jolie Maxwell and

582
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 1: the zeitgeist for sure. And I think it's and it's

583
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 1: been such a real world problem. It's it's like any

584
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 1: like with these conspiracies. That's why it's it's very easy

585
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 1: for them to gain momentum because it has to start

586
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 1: with some kind of focal point that is a real

587
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 1: world issue. So whether that's like your own financial disenfranchisement

588
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,839
Speaker 1: being the source of many all kinds of conspiracies about

589
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 1: who runs what in the banks, or whatever or something

590
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: like this with sex trafficking. There's always this real world

591
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: issue that give enough people to sort of rally around

592
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: and then sort of connect these dots and yeah, it's

593
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: it's really again. We were talking earlier about earlier in

594
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: this week about the lengths that people can go when

595
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: they're fully engrossed and caught up in these conspiracy theories,

596
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 1: and it shows that for there's very real to people,

597
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 1: you know on some level, like based on what they're reading,

598
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 1: like they're arriving at a place where this is the

599
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: reality that they're fighting against. So you know, on some

600
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:39,879
Speaker 1: level you can see why, yes, the material was there

601
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 1: in the conversation and culture for like this to pick

602
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: up as like a trend. And then but then you

603
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: get to see like these bad faith things like this

604
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: Newsweek article to where it's like, hey, let's uh, let's

605
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 1: kind of just hop on this right now because that

606
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 1: will get some clicks. Yeah, yeah, totally. And I mean

607
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: this just for if nothing else that's worth talking about

608
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,919
Speaker 1: this spa is this just doesn't how you know, we

609
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 1: we talked about the Jeffrey Epstein story a number of times,

610
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 1: and the way it actually works is they're out in

611
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: the open about it. They have a plane that everybody

612
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,359
Speaker 1: refers to as the low lead Express. Uh. They have

613
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 1: pedophile Island, and then when people come for them, they

614
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,800
Speaker 1: just you know, make that go away with sheer access

615
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 1: to power. They're not dropping hints in furniture, right right,

616
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be

617
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: right back. And we're back. Al right, guys, let's talk

618
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:53,839
Speaker 1: about this, uh, this lead poisoning thesis. I had kind

619
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,759
Speaker 1: of heard about this uh in the background as as

620
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 1: one of the explanations for why crime started going down

621
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: in the United States in the early nineties and has

622
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 1: kind of been going down ever since. The thesis basically,

623
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,760
Speaker 1: as it relates to crime, that that was the year

624
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 1: that the first generation after the Clean Air Act of

625
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:25,280
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy hit hit uh you know, adulthood and started

626
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 1: to you know, uh make adult decisions and be you

627
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 1: know hit the age that people generally uh start committing crimes. Um.

628
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: And the idea is that because the planet was so

629
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: full of leaded gasoline fumes um that up to the

630
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:51,800
Speaker 1: year nineteen seventy, humans were and especially children were exposed

631
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: to unprecedented levels of lead. And that's that's a fact

632
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 1: that you can test by you know that they were

633
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: testing at the time, And it's just a fact that

634
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 1: people during that time, like from the twenty late twenties

635
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:12,400
Speaker 1: through nineteen seventy were exposed as cars became so dominant

636
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 1: and up to the point like up through the sixties

637
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: was probably when it was at its worst, because that

638
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 1: was when the most cars were out there belching out

639
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 1: this lead gasoline fumes. So fre you going jack. So

640
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 1: lead is bad, it turns out, so lead poisoning. So

641
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 1: when when you come into contact with consistent lead poisoning

642
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,320
Speaker 1: as a child, it affects They found they found a

643
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 1: lot of longitudinal studies that uh say that it affects

644
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: person's ability to regulate their emotions. Uh, they're more likely

645
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 1: to display psychological traits that include impulsivity and egocentricity. Um,

646
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 1: so what are these people born? Probably where were they born? When?

647
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: When do you? When do you when? When we're when

648
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: we're peak? When were you people really getting off on

649
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 1: the fuel? The baby boom generation is kind of so

650
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 1: that that's what I'm kind of connecting it to. That's

651
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:10,879
Speaker 1: a lot of the writing on this has just been

652
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 1: focused on explaining there's this big demographic puzzle that a

653
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: lot of different explanations have been proposed for, uh, for

654
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: why crime went down starting in the nineties, because everybody

655
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's crime bill, that's right, well, but that Joe

656
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 1: Biden's crime bill and like Clinton's like all they're like, Uh,

657
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:36,840
Speaker 1: super predator ship was was a result of the fact

658
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 1: that crime just started going up in like this unprecedented

659
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: and unpredicted way in the seventies and eighties. Uh. And

660
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: then for no real reason that anybody has been able

661
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 1: to identify, starting in the nineties, that started going down. Um.

662
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,960
Speaker 1: And you know this is Malcolm Gladwell wrote about this

663
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 1: being from Broken Windows police and Rudy Giuliani, which turns

664
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: out as bullshit. Uh. And there's a lot of different

665
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 1: like explanations. The freakonomics people wrote about it being the

666
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 1: result of Roe v. Wade, but that doesn't hold for

667
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 1: other countries, so it doesn't really make sense that that

668
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 1: would be a cause. And so this writer a bunch

669
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,879
Speaker 1: of writers have pointed to lead poisoning being the thing,

670
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 1: because once lead is taken out of the gasoline in

671
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:34,799
Speaker 1: a country, about twenty years later, almost like clockwork, their

672
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 1: crime starts going down. Um, so it's it's really interesting

673
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: that there's We'll link off to some articles that kind

674
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:47,359
Speaker 1: of explain it in more detail, but basically, uh, there's

675
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 1: this Mother Jones article that says, it's basically unassailable that

676
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: lead poisoning explained who committed crime and ended up at

677
00:41:54,719 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 1: the cruel you know, bottom part of our social strata. Uh,

678
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 1: you know, taking that if that is true, and we

679
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 1: take as a constant that America is not a meritocracy

680
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: but more of a lottery based on where into whom

681
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 1: you're born, and uh, you know, I feel like it

682
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,359
Speaker 1: would be inevitable that the same would be true at

683
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 1: the top of our society, like that the baby boomers

684
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:25,880
Speaker 1: who grew up and were exposed to all this lead

685
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 1: and have damaged impulse control, who are still in positions

686
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 1: of power, still running our country. Uh, that that would

687
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 1: have an impact on them and just on our world

688
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:44,760
Speaker 1: in general, since they've been uh so greedily holding onto

689
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: power for for so long, um and so aggressive about it.

690
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, it just seems like it's a It's

691
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 1: not not a thing that I found, like, you know,

692
00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:00,520
Speaker 1: somebody else really making the case for there is there

693
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:03,360
Speaker 1: was an article about how Baby Boomers as a generation

694
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: were more sociopathic than other generations, and they like mentioned

695
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 1: as an aside the high led content of their blood

696
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:16,880
Speaker 1: being one of the very unique things about their generation. Um,

697
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 1: but it seems pretty I don't know, like it tracks

698
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,760
Speaker 1: when you think about. One of the things that always

699
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: surprised me when I really do look back, is just

700
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:32,480
Speaker 1: how weird the crime infested the country was at that point.

701
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 1: Like it wasn't just scare tactics, and it wasn't just

702
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 1: movies where like, oh, you go to the the city, you're

703
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 1: gonna get muggs, Like just a fact like oh, that

704
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 1: dude has like seven knives on him. Oh, that woman

705
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,359
Speaker 1: just got mugged while I was watching. As it turns out,

706
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,760
Speaker 1: there was just a weird amount of crency serial killers,

707
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: so many of them during this time period. So I

708
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 1: should say that I got h I started looking into

709
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 1: this because I was listening to an episode of Last

710
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 1: Podcast on the Left and they were talking about out

711
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 1: the fact that these three major serial killers whose names

712
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:09,840
Speaker 1: I'm I'm not remembering, but they all came from the

713
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:13,239
Speaker 1: same neighborhood at around the same time or the same

714
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,719
Speaker 1: town at around the same time, and it's like such

715
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 1: an abarition like that that's not normal, normal behavior. Uh.

716
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 1: And there was just an overall spike and serial killers

717
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 1: in the seventies. Uh. And be there being geographical hotspots

718
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,720
Speaker 1: of serial killers would suggest like literally something in the water.

719
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 1: So I don't know, Anna Cruz Ista Cruz, there was

720
00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:42,400
Speaker 1: three serial killers active at the same time, Yeah, exactly. Um, yeah,

721
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 1: so I don't know. And London, Ontario to Canada, you

722
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,279
Speaker 1: got yours too, There's a there's a whole thing of

723
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 1: like a few towns had multiple serial killers active at

724
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,919
Speaker 1: the same time. And when you look at with each

725
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 1: other trying to get to the top of their charts,

726
00:44:56,280 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 1: much like Arsenal Liverpool at the top of no chart.

727
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: And when you look at three of our last four presidents,

728
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:11,320
Speaker 1: they were born within three months of each other. Uh.

729
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,399
Speaker 1: George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump were all

730
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 1: born are all at the like slightly older edge of

731
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:26,839
Speaker 1: the baby boomer generation. And you know, they have variously

732
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 1: completely funked up our our country in pretty aggressive ways. Um.

733
00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 1: I feel like we go too hard on George Bush,

734
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 1: you know, like ever since Ellen, you know, I think

735
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:42,040
Speaker 1: we were all supposed to realize. You know that George Bush,

736
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,440
Speaker 1: he must also be involved in the wayfair conspiracy because

737
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, if you saw the image, the way

738
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 1: they were talking to each other, they were signaling to

739
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,560
Speaker 1: us what the real truth was. What's in the cabinet

740
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 1: named w y hmmm, and presidents have what cabinets? I

741
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:02,640
Speaker 1: gotta go for shuts down for the Deep States against us. Yeah.

742
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 1: So anyways, just I mean this is also a very

743
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 1: hopeful spin on things that like we are just being

744
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 1: poisoned by this about to pass from this earth generation.

745
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:21,160
Speaker 1: So that this isn't any sort of like actionable ideas

746
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:24,319
Speaker 1: here other than don't inhale lead. I just think it's

747
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 1: an interesting and let's not forget though, speaking going back

748
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 1: to Flint, uh the number of lead pipes that are

749
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,279
Speaker 1: still in use in this country is extremely high, and

750
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 1: it's something that can be solved. Gonna take a lot

751
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 1: of money in time, but it can be solved. It's

752
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 1: not that it's going to take a lot of money.

753
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:53,800
Speaker 1: Miles is big on austerity uh um over here um.

754
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 1: The one other detail of it is that people have

755
00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: been pointing to the year twenty as a year to

756
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:03,760
Speaker 1: look for a drop in violence in the Middle East

757
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: because that's when like two thousand was basically their nineteen

758
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:12,560
Speaker 1: seventy in terms of removing lead from gasoline. So, uh,

759
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 1: that's one way that I mean, that's a convenient way

760
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 1: to explain terrorism right right where it's like, yeah, nothing

761
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 1: to do with the United States foreign policy. It's it

762
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 1: was the gas. I'm pretty sure. I mean, it's always

763
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 1: been about the oil and gas. Damn we need an

764
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:35,640
Speaker 1: improv team here between. Yeah, all of this is can

765
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 1: be like seen as a very convenient like sort of

766
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,759
Speaker 1: well that that was the answer, and now we don't

767
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:45,759
Speaker 1: have to worry about anything. And that's definitely definitely not

768
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 1: what we're saying. I remember always as a kid, though, too,

769
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:52,720
Speaker 1: seeing unleaded gas, like, right, well, why would you like gas?

770
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 1: Or just when I saw it on my wall, where

771
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:57,560
Speaker 1: do you get leaded gas? I'm like, why why do

772
00:47:57,600 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 1: you get unletted? I remember always asking my mom why

773
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:02,960
Speaker 1: because would say unleaded because there was still the eighties

774
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:05,359
Speaker 1: and I could there. I'm sure there was people had

775
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 1: habits of like saying that or whatever, or that was

776
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 1: like a way to describe gas. But I was like,

777
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 1: it always bugged my mind was like, shouldn't we get

778
00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:16,480
Speaker 1: the good ship, Like you don't want un anything? Yeah,

779
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 1: make the cars and the brains go fast. Yeah, exactly. Yeah.

780
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:22,720
Speaker 1: The the guy who helped develop lead a gasoline, Thomas

781
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:26,360
Speaker 1: Midgley Jr. Did at a at a press conference, poured

782
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:29,520
Speaker 1: lead a gasoline into a bowl, like, poured it over

783
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 1: his hands, put it under his nose, huffed it. Uh,

784
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,880
Speaker 1: and to prove his point. The state of New Jersey

785
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,840
Speaker 1: was still like, we're you know, funk all that. But

786
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,480
Speaker 1: oh my god. He had to take a leave of

787
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:47,400
Speaker 1: absence from work after being diagnosed with lead poisoning. He also, apparently,

788
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,320
Speaker 1: I'm just looking this up. He apparently also helped invent

789
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:58,439
Speaker 1: CFCs like free on which this dude shout out right,

790
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:02,200
Speaker 1: and then in nineteen forty at the age of fifty one,

791
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 1: and then in nineteen forty at the age of fifty one,

792
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,680
Speaker 1: just like talking about his two of his inventions like

793
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:14,319
Speaker 1: might have destroyed the world and killed a bunch of people. Well,

794
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,560
Speaker 1: in nineteen forty, at the age of fifty one, Midsuley

795
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:20,000
Speaker 1: contract a polio which left him severely disabled. He devised

796
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:22,880
Speaker 1: an elaborate system of ropes and pulleys to lift himself

797
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:26,239
Speaker 1: out of bed. In nineteen four, he became entangled in

798
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:30,279
Speaker 1: the device and died of strangulation. That's how he went

799
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 1: entangled with august Alsina entangled aglement. It was truly entanglement. Wow. Stop,

800
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 1: he could not stop inventing things that would kill people.

801
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:48,840
Speaker 1: Like it was just like He's like, damn it, not again,

802
00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 1: deal with the devil? Was I want to be a

803
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:58,759
Speaker 1: famous inventor? Yeah, exactly has been granted. Ship. Oh what's

804
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,360
Speaker 1: something from your search history that's revealing about who you

805
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 1: are or where you are? Uh? Search history? I searched

806
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 1: recently Charleston River Dogs, Jersey UM because they canceled minor

807
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 1: league baseball. I believe a couple or like a couple

808
00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 1: of weeks ago, I think officially, and my parents live

809
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:19,160
Speaker 1: in Charleston where the River Dogs play the It's a

810
00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:22,200
Speaker 1: Class A affiliate of the Yankees, and I was wondering,

811
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, God, they've probably because they've laid off players

812
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:27,919
Speaker 1: like their minor league baseball players just won't make any

813
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 1: money this year. So I was wondering if there's a

814
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:33,040
Speaker 1: way I could support that team, which is like a

815
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:36,399
Speaker 1: thing I love to go to uh, Bill Murray very

816
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 1: wise and now the minor league baseball. Sorry that was

817
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:42,720
Speaker 1: like seconds too late, but it gets worse and worse,

818
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:48,720
Speaker 1: our hero and know we need a Jack's medication. Zoom

819
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:52,239
Speaker 1: delay is getting real bad. Sorry, was that was the

820
00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 1: Bill Murray aspect of Bill Murray wasn't one as well? Um,

821
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 1: he is a part owner of the team. So it's

822
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 1: this little minor it looks like a little league stadium.

823
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 1: And then Bill Murray is just sitting in the stands

824
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:10,120
Speaker 1: and he'll come out and do bits like because he

825
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:12,799
Speaker 1: lives in Charleston, South Carolina. And it's great. It's so

826
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,400
Speaker 1: much fun. Didn't you say? You stop by there like

827
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:17,719
Speaker 1: as much as possible, right, like if you can, there's

828
00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:19,759
Speaker 1: a game you try and go. I go to that

829
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 1: one of the last recordings that like you, it's a must.

830
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,800
Speaker 1: It's a must for you to see the River D's.

831
00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,000
Speaker 1: It is the River D's as all the big fans

832
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:31,319
Speaker 1: call it. Yes, that is correct, um, and I only

833
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:36,479
Speaker 1: yeah that one silver we had to go to half

834
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:43,640
Speaker 1: a syllable from Yeah, guys are exhausting. Yeah, it's the

835
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:46,200
Speaker 1: only word where a letter is longer to say than

836
00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:49,879
Speaker 1: the actual word. Um, but yeah, I love going. It's

837
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:51,719
Speaker 1: just going to a minor league baseball game is really

838
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:56,239
Speaker 1: really fun. Yeah, what what is a river dog? Is

839
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,880
Speaker 1: that just a dog that lives by the river. Is

840
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:02,600
Speaker 1: that a name or like an odd type of fish

841
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:05,879
Speaker 1: an otter? Yeah? I think it's the kind just like

842
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,600
Speaker 1: a modifier that they just threw on there because they

843
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 1: didn't want to just call them the dogs. You know,

844
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 1: it would be like if Notre Dame just called them

845
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 1: the Irish, which actually they should do, you know what,

846
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:19,040
Speaker 1: never mind, it's not like that. They don't have to

847
00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:21,239
Speaker 1: call them the fighting Irish. And I'm not sucking up

848
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 1: to you right now, Jack. I think it's terrible what

849
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 1: they do over there, and she pain't. That entire culture

850
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 1: as fighters I think is wrong. Oh you know what

851
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:36,879
Speaker 1: it was, Charlie Weiss was canceled. Charlie Wiss. This river

852
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:45,160
Speaker 1: dogs origin story is so lame. First, just the reason

853
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:49,839
Speaker 1: they call dogs. The owners had a lab named Taco

854
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,160
Speaker 1: or possibly Chaz. I don't even know why this is

855
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:57,840
Speaker 1: disposed according to this article, but they're neighbors called the

856
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:04,240
Speaker 1: dog a river dog, so and yeah, water dog, profuse

857
00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 1: your nation? Why why river dog? Did they live by

858
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,959
Speaker 1: a river. No explanation, just the neighbors called it because

859
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:15,240
Speaker 1: it was dirty, looked like it was bathing in brown river. Dog.

860
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:19,439
Speaker 1: That dog's always in the river. Wow, that dogs better

861
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:22,320
Speaker 1: let be a fish. I tell you. Is that Taco

862
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 1: or Chaz? Keep telling you the dog's name is Lucky?

863
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,919
Speaker 1: All right, doc, but it's in the river. I've never

864
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:32,560
Speaker 1: heard your origin story. That sounded more like it was

865
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:37,279
Speaker 1: being told by a drunk person. Right, yeah, it's like

866
00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:40,279
Speaker 1: and you never asked, Hey, you know what they called it?

867
00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 1: The river dog? You know why I call river dog,

868
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 1: don't you? We don't ask him follow up questions. We

869
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:47,600
Speaker 1: did it once and it was the worst decision we

870
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:51,200
Speaker 1: ever made. River dogs manly, you know how to call him? Right?

871
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:54,840
Speaker 1: Because the gold Clanks the owners had a dog a taco.

872
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,399
Speaker 1: We're in Wilmington, Delaware, and I don't know what you're

873
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:01,520
Speaker 1: talking about. I have to go do some tax free

874
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:03,319
Speaker 1: shopping now, but thank you for that. I'm going to

875
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 1: incorporate now, if you'll excuse me, good god, sir, I

876
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 1: have to incorporate. I haven't incorporation, oh ship, all right,
