And I think the thing that it's an 169 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 1: addiction memoir, but it's also about divorce, it's also about motherhood. 170 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 1: It's also um about falling in love, which comes a 171 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: little bit towards the end. And I think the thing 172 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: that makes it unique is the thing you just touched on, 173 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: is that it comes from that intersection of race, because 174 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: it's a story written by me, a black woman, about 175 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: an addiction that doesn't involve drug ins and prostitution and 176 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: you know, childhood sexual trauma, and it comes from this 177 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: place of privilege. And it's also you know, it's an 178 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: addiction story race. And what's the other one, addiction, race 179 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: and privilege. Yeah, So those three things, And what I 180 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: found was there are lots of stories that are addiction memoirs. 181 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: There are lots of mostly written by white women. The 182 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: ones that are written by black women usually involve those 183 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: three things I listed, And like, I'm not saying that 184 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: my story is any better than anybody else's by far. 185 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: Those stories are thrilling and I loved reading them, but 186 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: I didn't identify with them, so I think I don't think. 187 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: I know, there were no comparisons for my book when 188 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: I wrote it. There's nothing out there like it, so 189 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: that's what makes it unique. Yeah, I mean it was 190 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: striking just from like this of synopsis of you. You 191 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: know that you were elaborately scheduling withdrawals between PTA meetings 192 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: and things like that, or hiding pills in your red bottoms. Yeah, 193 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: I was just like, this is fascinating. And yet to 194 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: your point, I feel like we're I guess like the 195 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: stories we hear a lot are not necessarily looking at 196 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: it from your perspective. Not to say that's a bad thing, 197 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: but yeah, to your point that you felt that your 198 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: story had a place to be heard, and I think 199 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: it's fantastic. Yeah, thank you. It's so nice that. Yeah, 200 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: there's like diversity in every type of story and we're 201 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 1: like starting to finally get to hear things like that. 202 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: That's so great. Yeah, was there everything like with publishers 203 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: who are kind of like, do you have something that's 204 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 1: more in line with like stereotypes about black women that 205 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: we know about, like because I know, like with entertainment, 206 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: like to your point, Andrew, you know what I mean, 207 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: Like you try and represent your culture in a diverse way, 208 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: and then some people who are gatekeeping who don't understand that, 209 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: like can we just regress to the old thing? But 210 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: was it was it easy or what was that sort 211 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: of path? Like, you know, to my advantage, I pitched 212 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 1: this during the summer of twenty twenty and we were 213 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: having a moment. Yeah, and publishing it was like the 214 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: first time in my memory that all black authors were 215 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: in the top ten of the best selling list. Because 216 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 1: everybody was trying to educate themselves about being an anti racist, etc. Etc. 217 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: And learn as much as they could about black culture. 218 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 1: So publishers were hungry for stories by black people period. 219 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: I think they did get excited about mine because it 220 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: was unique and they felt like they might be able 221 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: to pull in a different audience than they had with 222 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: other previous black addiction memoirs. Right right, that's fantastic. Let's 223 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: move on to our next question. What is something you 224 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 1: think is overrated? College degrees? Okay, go on, So I 225 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: didn't graduate from high school, I didn't go to college. 226 00:11:56,080 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 1: And I'm not bragging about that, but you know, I 227 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: had well and I wrote about this in my book. 228 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: I lied about it all the time in order to 229 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: get jobs, I said, I was George Santos basically like 230 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: I said, I padded my resume because I wouldn't have 231 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: gotten the job without it. But I was without that 232 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: on paper qualification, I was still qualified to do the job. 233 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: I had the experience, I understood how to do it. 234 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: I'm a quick learner, like I educated myself about the 235 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: position before I got it and then went all in 236 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: and I did really well. So I don't think I 237 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: needed that piece of paper in order to do the job. 238 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: But there's there's this consensus that we do need that, 239 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: And a lot of people in my family, they're successful, 240 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: don't have college degrees. And I'm not discouraging anyone from 241 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: getting it, but I do think they're overrated. Yeah. Well, 242 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: I think there's just like this disconnect to where there's 243 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: this emphasis about having it, yet it's so hard to 244 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: attain or in a way that doesn't potentially fuck you 245 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 1: up for decades to Yeah, yeah, I get that. It's 246 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: like that so many people now, Like I was just 247 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: talking to somebody I was watching like the Final four tournament, 248 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: and I was like, I was like, I almost went 249 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: to the like almost went to University of Miami because 250 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: like I got in in my mind, I was like, yeah, 251 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: I'm a fucking party in Miami for college. Then I 252 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: saw what it costs, and I'm gonna keep my ass 253 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: in the fucking state because I do. I absolutely couldn't, 254 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: especially when I saw my other friends taking on loans 255 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: and like what the payback sort of structure looked like. 256 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: I was frightened to the point where I was almost like, 257 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 1: I know, I want to get into comedy and shit, 258 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 1: but yeah, like my grandparents and my parents' voice rang 259 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 1: in my head. They're like, look, if you could go 260 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: for it, and if you fuck up, at least you 261 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: could teach history because you have that degree. And I'm 262 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: like that was and I would do that if things 263 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: shook out a different way. So I kind of I 264 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,959 Speaker 1: see that. Yeah, it's so because it's like nominally it's 265 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: supposed to be like proof that you did something or 266 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: you accomplish something or at a level, but like, because 267 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: of the way the world works, there's so much variance 268 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: and what that fucking piece of paper me Like I 269 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: feel like like I did, unfortunately go to like a 270 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,839 Speaker 1: nice college, and like, truly, the only thing I learned 271 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: from that college that I find was valuable was that um, 272 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: rich kids are not only not better than you, they 273 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: are actively worse than you. They are the tombst people 274 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: on earth. And we all have the same piece of 275 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:25,239 Speaker 1: paper at the end of the day. You know, It's hilarious. 276 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: I just like to like, I always think about when 277 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: you know, you have a resume or whatever and they 278 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: ask for like your education, You're like, how many times 279 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: has anyone ever actually bothered to check up on that 280 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: unless like you came in and they like you were 281 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: so flagrant with it. They're like, there's no way this 282 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: person has like a master's from whatever. But right to 283 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: your point, I'm like, yeah, just fake it till you 284 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: make it. You know, I even know where my diploma is. 285 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: Oh I didn't even say, Yeah I didn't go, I 286 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: didn't even walk.

Okay, 321 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: so I'm glad, but plant based diet, I think it's underrated. 322 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: I'm a plant based person and I think people throw 323 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: me a lot of shade because of it.

But then to 329 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: be a plant based eater too, yeah, it's like we 330 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: don't even want to have dinner with you. Basically, you're 331 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: not even gonna like eat the good food and you're 332 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 1: not gonna drink, Like it's just we'll meet later for 333 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: coffee or something.

So 334 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: my friend, one of my best friends, her husband is 335 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: like a straight edged dude from like og straight edge 336 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: guy from youth, but then just turned into just being 337 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:33,360 Speaker 1: sober basically into adulthood and also vegan. And I remember 338 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: when they first started dating, we were in our early twentis. 339 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, he's straight as van the fuck, How 340 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: the fuck are we gonna get down with him? Like 341 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: we're drunk as fuck eating meat? And then you begin 342 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: to realize, like how wonder you like you think that 343 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: like what that shit is? Because over time we're like 344 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: I'm like always like like he put me onto so 345 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 1: many vegan things and like opened my mind just from 346 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: like hanging out. So I definitely underrated all of that 347 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: because as I become more or like in tune with 348 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: my own health and like the earth, I'm like, yeah, yeah, 349 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: you don't have to fucking go ride or die for 350 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 1: eating cows like I thought I did when I was 351 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: much younger. But yeah, but that's like such a like 352 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: also like as your personality grows past, like what do 353 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 1: you do at tacos and beer? Like just like every 354 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 1: die you know or whatever, Like it's just like, you know, 355 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: we can also grow from that, yeah, you know, no 356 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: matter where you start. Yeah, no, it's to the point 357 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: now where like if I grill hamburgers, I only eat 358 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: like impossible. Yeah, I don't do like keef burgers anymore. 359 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: They just they I don't know, Like because I had 360 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: it at Umami when they were doing impossible and the 361 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: way they were doing it, I was like, this shit 362 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: is no different than McDonald's quote unquote beef in my mouth. 363 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: The funk I need to do this for anymore? So 364 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: I'm all, I'm all on that. Although look i'm gonnad 365 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: cheese okay, yeah, my guilty not guilty pleasure obviously, But 366 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 1: like the fucking impossible whopper, it's so good. I mean, 367 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: it is good. Well, part of it is that you 368 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: realize that the taste of the whopper is just mayonnaise 369 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 1: and rod everything else is sort of irrelevant, not a 370 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 1: vegan burger, but it is like there is no need 371 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 1: for beef to be in there, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, 372 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: I love that. Okay, let's take a quick break and 373 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: we will be right back and we are back the 374 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 1: grand old Party. I just want to check in with 375 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: them a little bit, because when they took control of 376 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: the House, you know, they vowed to go scorched earth 377 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: on our assis. You know that there would be so 378 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 1: many investigations, our heads would spin and the revelations would 379 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:53,199 Speaker 1: destroy the Biden administration for decades or whatever, like they 380 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: you know, like they did with the Benghazi stuff. So 381 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 1: we're a few months into the new Congress, and though 382 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: multiple hearings have rendered not much at the moment. Now 383 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: there's look, I'm not all that to say, there is 384 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: definitely still time for them to figure out if there 385 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 1: really is a massive conspiracy to silence conservatives online or 386 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: just how huge Hunter Biden's ball sack is. But as 387 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: it stands, even the things they are claiming our revelatory 388 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,199 Speaker 1: just aren't catching on. And naturally, the polling shows that like, 389 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: while the Republicans that are pulled don't quite move the 390 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: needle in terms of like, hey, do you think there's 391 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: a waste of fucking time or an overreach or like 392 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:32,199 Speaker 1: they could be doing something better, Democrats and independence especially 393 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: are like Independence especially are being like what the fuck 394 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: is this? Like, there's it's not even that inflation is 395 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,160 Speaker 1: so bad, but this is the thing that they're devoting 396 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 1: the time too. And it's all just kind of part 397 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: of this current iteration of the party that we've seen 398 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: that's come less complete sense onto how to even govern 399 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 1: or even create legislation that isn't part of like their batshit, 400 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: you know, anti woke culture war. So they had a 401 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: really good opportunity with the Silicon Valley bank collapse, you know, 402 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: because you saw some of the conservatives on Capitol Hill 403 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: begin to question, like the idea of bailouts and who 404 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: actually pays for the transgressions of the investor or banking class, 405 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: who is the one who is really footing that bill? 406 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: And is it right? But they maybe asked two questions 407 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 1: and then went fucking all in on there were too 408 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 1: many women and people of color on the board. So 409 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: their wokeness caused high interest rates in a bank run, 410 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: which is kind of where you're left. And this tendency 411 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: has become so reflective that it feels like the party 412 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,880 Speaker 1: is guided obviously more by what's getting clicks and views 413 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: on Fox News versus like what their own polling tells 414 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: them because even when you pull Republicans, their biggest concern 415 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 1: is the economy, morals and values pulled at one percent, 416 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,719 Speaker 1: but again this is part and parcel of what we're 417 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: seeing at the moment. The other way to look at this, though, 418 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,199 Speaker 1: is like especially on economic stuff, and I guess this 419 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 1: is shade at Biden, like yeah, they're not that different, no, Noans, 420 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 1: So they're just hitting their point of difference, which is 421 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 1: I guess a marketing strategy that is justifiable. This is 422 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: the thing like at least at least Democrats will put 423 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 1: a kid day cloth in neo on Capitol Hill because 424 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: they look at expanding a voter base. The relics are like, 425 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, let's how many more can we 426 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: shed by just like turning the pot up higher. But 427 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: again it all probably speaks to like their singular march 428 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: towards upending like the democratic process, where it's not going 429 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: to matter if they have the numbers. They just want 430 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: the more angry people. Yeah. They just have been built on, 431 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,239 Speaker 1: you know, a fervor of apartheid rule and they just 432 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: need they're apartheid minority to be passionate. And even though 433 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: like did you see the wake of the rally, like 434 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: he was. Yes, they were losing energy out there. I 435 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: was like, shit, bro Donald, like you gotta come home, baby. 436 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: They're like the red meat. One black guy find him? 437 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, there's always like those two guys go on 438 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: with the pon the relaxed ponytail. Yeah yeah, yeah, that's 439 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: my man right there. I always see him. I'm like, wow, like, 440 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: is it like following the grateful dead? Or is he 441 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 1: like on a retainer as like a set decoration. I'm 442 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: not sure. Does that fall into the prop masters killed? Yeah? Anyway, 443 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: I I mean, wasn't it was I guess this is 444 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: maybe just me reading my part of Twitter too much, 445 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 1: but wasn't it like showing that those people are like 446 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: a murder? Oh? No, there was one guy for blacks 447 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 1: for Trump. I remember who. They're like, yo, he's got 448 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: he's connected to some weird stuff going on. And people 449 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: are like, have do they even vet these people? Because 450 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: again they're just looking for literal physical like black body, Yo? Yeah, 451 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 1: how could they vet someone? They don't. They're not turning 452 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: black people away at the Trump rally. No, I mean again, 453 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,120 Speaker 1: they might be looking for wherever they can find them 454 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: on the Internet. And so this pattern right has extended 455 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 1: into this shooting in Tennessee now where the GOP is 456 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: using this like woke, like what is woke? Woke is bad. 457 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: That's why a bank crash, not because of the lack 458 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: of regulation and the greed of like the people who 459 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: are running it. To begin to fuel a discussion on 460 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,360 Speaker 1: how the far left needs to understand that being a 461 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: transgender person is a mental issue. And yet despite their 462 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: cries of like mental health crisis, which is their go 463 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 1: to to not enact any gun control. You always notice 464 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: they aren't now saying that trans people need more mental 465 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: health support. No, so again, okay, so it's just to say, 466 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: I just want to avoid the conversation about gun control. 467 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 1: And this is the thing, like to underline the point 468 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: about the Democrats and the Republicans. I'm not getting much 469 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: from the Democrats either outside of we need gun reform. 470 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: Yeah we've been Yeah, we know we need gun reform, 471 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: Like we understand that, but where is the actual like 472 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,360 Speaker 1: aggressive energy to address it. Otherwise you're just revealing how 473 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: much you're in the tank for like the gun lobby 474 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: or your unwillingness to to grapple with it, and like 475 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: I saw a lot of coverage that was like victim 476 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: centered coverage about who these six people who lost their 477 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 1: lives or and it's tragic these three children and these 478 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 1: three adults. And I don't have an issue with that, 479 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: but if you're not following this kind of coverage of 480 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: pulling at our heartstrings about the loss of life by 481 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: forcefully calling for real gun control and actually saying like 482 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: we need to stop saying the same empty, you know, 483 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 1: sayings we've been saying, then really it's an utter failure 484 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 1: that like you know, it's hardly a fitting tribute to 485 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: those people. And I was just as I was watching this, 486 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 1: it was really hard to see like how like some 487 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: of these anchors and a TV pundits would like breathlessly 488 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 1: like be like yeah, you know, there is talk though 489 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: too that we could have more perimeter security that's needed 490 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: at our schools, or that we you know, this school 491 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: didn't have a police officer there because it was like 492 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: in a church setting, blah blah blah, that we're not 493 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 1: it's not a substantive debate about like our sick obsession 494 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: with guns and like you know that, and also are 495 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 1: are the reflex of people to just hide behind the 496 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: Constitution to just not actually have like a conversation about 497 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: human life. Yeah, it's like our constitution was written by 498 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 1: a bunch of racists who've never seen a bullet before. 499 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:19,640 Speaker 1: So hey, they had to melt their pewter down into 500 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: musket balls. Okay, I won't I won't have you slacking 501 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: them off. They had to get up their fine pewter trade. Listen, 502 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: if you're like a school if a school shooter had 503 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: to like set up a little like killed and melt 504 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 1: their little musket balls to get ready to do their shit, 505 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 1: that seems like a compromise. Yeah, I don't know. Just 506 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 1: like as I you know, just see countless like heartbroken 507 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: parents over and over like step up to like a 508 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: you know, an assortment of microphones and say the same thing. 509 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: You're like, it's it's it's just you get in this 510 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: like really fucked up like rage loop where you're like, 511 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 1: oh no, and then they're gonna come on and say that. 512 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: You know, there's a there's a senator in Tennessee or 513 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: congressman in Tennessee who quite literally said, well, there's nothing 514 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: we can really do about it, right, Yeah, Yeah, I'm 515 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: sorry what he said. I don't see any real role 516 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: that we could do other than mess things up. And 517 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: then before and then again his like first thing was like, yeah, 518 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: we're not going to fix it, We're not going to 519 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 1: be able to and you get and then on the 520 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: other side, it's just this hand ringing without any real 521 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: like are we really ready to up end the status quo? 522 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: The answer consistently seems to be no. Yeah. I have 523 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: a conservative friend who's a gun enthusiast and I follow 524 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 1: him and a few of his friends on Instagram, and 525 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: the consensus between them seems to be that one, we've 526 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 1: gone too far to ever go back, So how do 527 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: we deal with what we have while we keep our guns? 528 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 1: And their answer seems to be to arm everybody, right, 529 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: Like if everybody had a gun, then we would be 530 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: a much safer nation. Yeah, and they really think it's 531 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: two separate issues, like they think that the mental illness 532 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: that gets people killed has nothing to do with the 533 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: access to guns. And to me, it's so frustrating. Yeah, 534 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: but I follow them because I want to know what's 535 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: being said, you know. Yeah, No, absolutely, I follow plenty 536 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: of conservatives and see the exact same thing. I mean, 537 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: let me just play the comments here of Congressman Burkett, 538 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:20,439 Speaker 1: who's from Tennessee, because his basic talking point is the 539 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: same thing as in line with It's like, I mean, 540 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? Man? Do you think there's 541 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: any role for Congress to play in reaction to this tragedy? 542 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: Obviously this is your state now that it's happened in 543 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: every other star it's happening if it doesn't matter what 544 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: state it's happened, and it's we're all Americans, it doesn't 545 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 1: matter the color of their scan, and they all believe. 546 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: It's believing a lot. I don't see any real role, 547 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: but we could do other than mess things up, honestly 548 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: because of the situation. It's like I said, I don't 549 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: think our criminal is going to stop from guns. You know, 550 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: you can print them out on the computer now, three 551 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: D printing, and there's really I don't think you're going 552 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: to stop the gun violence. I think you've got to 553 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: change people's hard you know, as a Christian, as we 554 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: talk about in the church. Now, okay, there, you got 555 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: enough of that. It didn't need that pivot to Christ there. 556 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: Thus Christ is going to turn the guns into medical care. 557 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: I don't know what we're gonna do with that. But yeah, 558 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: you hurd, it's like this I don't know, the cat's 559 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: out of the bag kind of thing. And it's It's 560 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: what's interesting too, is you know he talks about he 561 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: has a little girl too, and the reporter said, well, 562 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 1: then what else can be done to protect children like 563 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 1: your little girl? He said, oh, we'll be homeschool her. Oh. 564 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: Really disgusting. Extra wrinkle. Yes, it's like trying to also 565 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: destroy public schools. Great, yeah, like every layer there, he's like, 566 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: because you know, we're not about a teacher thing. It's 567 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: like Rosa Parks was a black woman, because we don't 568 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: think that's important. We just know that she someone told 569 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: her to get out of her seat on the bus 570 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: and she said no, and she's a hero for that, 571 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: which is why you should be an asshole to other 572 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: people if they ask you to give up your seat 573 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: on a bus, which that's the moral of it, right, Yeah, 574 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 1: bring up race When she said U like, this is 575 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: happening in your state, and you say, well, we're all Americans, 576 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what color you are, Like, why did 577 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: you say that? I think because they're they're all so 578 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: racist that it's just a reflect they have to be like, yeah, 579 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: it's just been like, well, I know it's gonna come 580 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: off as I only care about maybe white people. Look, 581 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: we're all we're all America. We all bleed red, black, brown, purple, 582 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: you know magentimle right, well bleed red. So it's also 583 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: like these like conservatives all never put their fucking money 584 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: where their mouth is, Like, oh, it's the safest society 585 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: is if everyone has a gun, Like, go to eddy 586 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: failed state, then then live you want Libertarians off, there's 587 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: no rules in like many of the countries America's destroyed. 588 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: Go set up shop there. Yeah, like people there. Yeah, 589 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: if it's that tough, and that's what's so freedom is 590 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: so important. Well, they all and this is everybody that's 591 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,959 Speaker 1: a politician. They speak like they live in the world 592 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: that other like the normal people do. Yet this guy 593 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: is someone who is a member of Congress, who has 594 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: I'm assuming enough wealth to have like you know, like 595 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: a stay at home family and homeschool their child and 596 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: afford themselves all these little advantages, but then not understand 597 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: what it means to not have those and then just 598 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: talk shit about them. I'd be like, hey, this is 599 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: a great place I mean, I'm not actually subjected to 600 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: the dangers of the world. I'm comment thing and won't 601 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: do anything about. But I believe it's okay, and I 602 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: think that's it's Yeah, it's very, very frustrating. Let's take 603 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 1: a quick pivot, as we do on this show, to 604 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: woolly mammoths. Just let's take a quick breath here. So 605 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: if you were a fan of the Flintstones like I was, 606 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 1: and you wanted to eat a whole side of dinosaur 607 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 1: or rib and now you can have meat balls that 608 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: are made of woolly mammoth meat. Kind of kind of okay. 609 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: So this Australian company, vow has made mammoth meat entirely 610 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: grown from cells, so they didn't obviously require her traveling 611 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: back in time and slaughtering a prehistoric creature like I 612 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: hope it did. Yeah, that would have looked up the 613 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: space time continuum. So could you imagine that as a film? Though, 614 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: I listen, they fucked up with the movie. Sixty five 615 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: sixty five should have been like a catch and cook 616 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 1: like from YouTube. Wait, what's sixty five sixty five is 617 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: the flop recently flopped ish movie that was like Adam 618 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: Driver Crash Lances spaceship and there's like scary bosters out 619 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: there and they're dinosaurs. Oh really, I did it. Yeah, 620 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: the movie did not do well. I love the trailer. 621 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: I haven't seen it yet, but I'm guessing there isn't 622 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: a scene where after he kills a dinosaur, he kind 623 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: of looks around. It's like I'm gonna try to bite Yeah, 624 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: exactly did Like good thing? Wait, is this guy Tim 625 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: He's a time traveler, though I think it's not supposed 626 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: to be. I didn't. I don't know that the twist 627 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: is for the purposes of this bit. I hope he's 628 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: a time traveler, but he's also like he brings seasonings 629 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: with him the back of his mind. He's like, you 630 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: never know, there might be some shit you could eat 631 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: that you won't be able to. That's true, you know, 632 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: an alien planet. You just got to try a little, 633 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:13,959 Speaker 1: just a taste, would you You have to? You think so? 634 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: I think I would eat a dinosaur. Yeah, Like I 635 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: don't have a I'm like I get that. Like, if 636 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: I'm you know, if I'm already traveling in time, I'm 637 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: probably fucked. Anyway. It's I'm like, fuck it, let's have 638 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: a bite of this like rapt or foot, but an alien. 639 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: That's where in my mind ago that feels like a 640 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: bridge too far, because I don't know if our biology 641 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: is it could be poisoned to me. But again, this 642 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: is me being so stupid that I'm like foot a raptor. See, 643 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: that's okay, that's good eating. I'm just saying, like every 644 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: time in one of those alien movies, it's like, oh, like, 645 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: oh I was assaulted and like became you know, not 646 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: or whatever, just like a tapped the thing and then 647 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: you know, turned into an alien. And I think given 648 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: how we've seen how real people react to various pandemics 649 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: that diseases, if aliens invaded or like we were at 650 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: a spaceship that found like you know, alien eggs, there's 651 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: no like caution. Someone would just straight up eat it. 652 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 1: I know, I know they're like, wait, what's all over 653 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 1: your mouth and one of the eggs missing? Oh it 654 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,839 Speaker 1: burns a little bit. Oh my god, better than it 655 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: looks though. So it turns out, they, much to our dismay, 656 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: are not time travelers, um so boo all of that. 657 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: But really they want to They're really trying to show 658 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: the potential of what like meat grown from cells, like 659 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: what you can do exactly without obviously the slaughter houses 660 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: and like the large scale agricultural opera like livestock operations 661 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,720 Speaker 1: that are causing a lot of environmental problems. So they've 662 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: also been doing this thing. They've been like investing in 663 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: making cultivated meat out of other species, including crocodiles, peacocks, 664 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,800 Speaker 1: and kangaroos. But the first one that apparently be sold 665 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,720 Speaker 1: to like the public, is going to be Japanese quail, 666 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 1: which will be available like later this year, like in 667 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,479 Speaker 1: Asia somewhere, but apparently like so again this is about 668 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,479 Speaker 1: their publicity stunt to basically say, like, we had enough 669 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 1: DNA sequence that we could kind of extrapolate something that 670 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: we could say was wooly mammoth like. So what they 671 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: did was they quote used the DNA sequence for mammoth myoglobin, 672 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: and they filled in the gaps with elephant DNA and 673 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 1: then placed it in a myoblast stem cell from sheep. 674 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what any of those words mean, but 675 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: they're they're quote what they said it was quote all 676 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: ridiculously easy and fast. That doesn't sound like something I 677 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: want to eat. I got in a little trouble with 678 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: some of my friends, Like in probably twenty eighteen, two 679 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 1: thousand nineteen, when everyone's doing twenty three and me and 680 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 1: I was like, because I I majored in biology in college, 681 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 1: and I you know when you do those labs. I 682 00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,760 Speaker 1: was like, you know, you can sequence your own DNA 683 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: and everyone was clowning on me, what are you talking about? 684 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: And here's the thing. It is like complicated, but like 685 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 1: every time you've done one of those COVID tests in 686 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:11,919 Speaker 1: the you know, the last three years, that's essentially what 687 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: you need to do to to uh sequenced it. Like 688 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 1: we could all do it. Yeah, it's like a swab 689 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 1: and you put it in an enzyme and then you like, 690 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: there's there's different you have to put in a PCR tube, 691 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: but probably reaction. Tobe obviously put that into center fears. Yes, 692 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 1: we've all done this, but that's what we have a 693 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,359 Speaker 1: lot of kids like that's I remember. I'm like, yeah, 694 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: PCR probably chain reaction to. It's so funny. Those little 695 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: vials I stole because I thought it'd be cool to 696 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: put like drugs in them, and then the little popps 697 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 1: and like, but yeah, that's actually good. That's where my 698 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,240 Speaker 1: stupid ass mind was in high school. Aside from stealing 699 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: the digital scales for my own weighing. That's what I'm 700 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 1: saying now, all that all those digital scales are like 701 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: twenty dollars high. It's just like all that shit you 702 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: can I promise you you could do it anyway. So 703 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: that's okay. Hold on, but I mentioned how, but how 704 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 1: is it gonna? How do I spin on a thing 705 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: and then it tells me on Portuguese suddenly? Um? I 706 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: mean it's just a matter of looking up the right 707 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: You're trying to find the genes that tell you that shit, 708 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: or I guess in there in twenty three meets case, 709 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 1: they just you know, find as many genes as they 710 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 1: look for, and then they match it with the number 711 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 1: of people who have this that are Portuguese or whatever. 712 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: Could I do a twenty three in andrew t where 713 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:31,879 Speaker 1: you'll see I trust you to sequence my DNA. I'm 714 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: just saying we all could do it. If you could 715 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: like put drops of liquid into a little tube, shake 716 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 1: it up, and then pour pipette that onto like a 717 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: little piece of paper, you could do it. I'm just 718 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 1: saying physical skills to do it right. Everyone, every one 719 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: of us has done anytime before. We don't have a 720 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: micropipette and things like that, so maybe that is a micropipette. 721 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:59,760 Speaker 1: See I'm learning Tanita digital scales or like three bucks. 722 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:03,359 Speaker 1: Now you could go on eBay and get some old 723 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: as centrifuges for way less than you should be able to, 724 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 1: or just tied on a string. It just whip it 725 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: around your head. I'm sorry that was that was my 726 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: big derail. But what they say, it's easier than you think. 727 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 1: I bet it genuinely is easier than you think. I get. Yeah, 728 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 1: I guess I like that, or maybe I thought it 729 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 1: was maybe like a bit of ausy humor where they're like, oh, yeah, 730 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: it might make it be a myth mate, it's just 731 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 1: ridiculously easy and faces the meat. Does the meat have cholesterol? 732 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 1: I'd imagine, I mean probably it probably does, right, yeah, 733 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: on some level. So it's just it's slaughter free, but 734 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 1: it's still is meat the way that it's grown from 735 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: a cell. But it doesn't have to require raising any 736 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:48,439 Speaker 1: live animals or like, and doesn't have parents. No. Yeah, 737 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: they're like, hey, we just got this DNA right here, 738 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 1: and then we put it with a myo blast stem cell. 739 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: The look ill eat it. The stem cell came from 740 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: a living sheep, but that sheep wasn't killed probably many 741 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 1: unless you ask a geop politician and which yeah, it 742 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 1: was like, we will never use sheep stem cells to 743 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: make our meats here. Yeah, like maybe probably in reality 744 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 1: of this sheep was killed. But yeah, you could do 745 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 1: it like a pick the bone marrow out of a thing. 746 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 1: People do it all the time. Not all the time 747 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 1: all the time. But have you have I? Have you 748 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 1: done it twenty three in me? No? I wouldn't. I 749 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: could do that ship myself. I'm too cheap new twenty 750 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 1: three of me, I would do it myself. Okay, you 751 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 1: know what, asshole you gonna now you have to do it. 752 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,479 Speaker 1: You can be like I don't have to. I could 753 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: do it myself, and don't be a don't put your 754 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: money where your mouth to look into it. I did. 755 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 1: I did at drunk at a bar. Get as far 756 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: as being like, all right, this such a few just 757 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: only like two hundred eighty bucks from like uc orvide, 758 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:52,319 Speaker 1: I just have to drive out and get it.

Oh yeah, well 763 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,440 Speaker 1: they finally they sent him replacement kits twice and then 764 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 1: the third time they sent him back his money, and 765 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 1: we said, They're basically like, we can't help you. Damn. 766 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: Isn't that weird?

Now, yeah, 768 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: I like hot a DNA leavel like our hands. Yeah, 769 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 1: They're like, yeah, this sounds like a great beginning to like, yeah, right, 770 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: I haven't. It's funny because I just found like I 771 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,359 Speaker 1: got an old ass khit like five years ago, like 772 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: in a gift bag for some like industry party I 773 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 1: went to. But at the time I was like, I 774 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,920 Speaker 1: ain't fucking giving them my DNA, so they sell it 775 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: to fiser or whatever the fuck. But I don't know. 776 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 1: I think part of me is kind of interested. The 777 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 1: one I'm more interested in is the African interest ancestry 778 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,400 Speaker 1: one because I would love more specifically to know like 779 00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 1: where in Africa, like you know, all of my likecestors 780 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,280 Speaker 1: were coming from, but that I need a female relative 781 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,840 Speaker 1: because they that's the gene that it's stored in.

But anyway, let's talk about Stormy Daniels because 849 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 1: while I was gone, Jack was saying like he felt 850 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 1: like the news cycle just feels like a like a 851 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 1: TV show that's like retreading like tired material because they 852 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,919 Speaker 1: run out of ideas. It's like Stormy Daniels is back, 853 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,879 Speaker 1: like what I thought that character got written off like 854 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 1: three years ago. But again, if this were a TV show, 855 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 1: the character has come back and has become a late 856 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 1: season Riverdale levels of strange. As our writer J M 857 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: mcnapp puts, I don't know much about Riverdale except I 858 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: think the teachers. The only episode I saw, one of 859 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 1: the teachers was having sex with a student, but the parents' 860 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,920 Speaker 1: reaction was just for them to get out of town. 861 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:25,880 Speaker 1: It's a weird show. I haven't watched all of that. 862 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,400 Speaker 1: It's a weird show. Um, everyone now, everyone in the 863 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,920 Speaker 1: chat because like it's gotten wild, there's magic involved. Now 864 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:39,360 Speaker 1: my god. Yeah, I mean in the comics, Archie fights 865 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 1: the Punisher once or twice. No, she is crazy, doesn't 866 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 1: really fight the Punisher. Apparently I haven't read it, but 867 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:53,400 Speaker 1: apparently the Archie versus the Punisher is like sort of 868 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 1: a tour to force in that no one really breaks character. 869 00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 1: Oh whoa, yeah, there's quite Literally Archie meets a Punisher 870 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:05,840 Speaker 1: and everyone just is who they are.

Anyway, that's the crossover. Yeah, it's the crossover 873 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 1: we want to see. It's the crossover that we all deserve. 874 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 1: M But so since like the Trump stuff it has 875 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 1: come out, we've seen her do stand up like in 876 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. I remember we touched on that and she 877 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 1: like she was like doing a whole tour and like 878 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 1: selling out rooms. Like with her you know, look beginner material, 879 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 1: but look all it's about getting on Mike and figured, 880 00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 1: you know, finding yourself up there, which she did and 881 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,359 Speaker 1: was selling out stage.

Yeah, 884 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 1: this is not a joke. It's called Stormy Daniel's Space Force. 885 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 1: And if you look at this like version of Trump, 886 00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: like it's him, but like with like the worst like 887 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: punk rock metal hair him, So he doesn't have he 888 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:11,160 Speaker 1: doesn't have the follicular fortitude to even pull that kind 889 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:13,880 Speaker 1: of Yeah, he'd have to get like some like Marvel 890 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 1: level like like foam pasted on his head, because you 891 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 1: imagine he really does that, and people are like, oh, yeah, 892 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's giving fanos, but yeah, I love it. 893 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 1: I love that for him.

So. 911 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 1: The other thing is that we found at is that she's, like, 912 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:33,000 Speaker 1: I use this term lightly a ghostbuster um because during 913 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,640 Speaker 1: the so you know, Mike Lavinadi her like her pit 914 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 1: bull lawyer, the fighter who was going to go up 915 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,520 Speaker 1: against Trump, but then his ass ended up in jail 916 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 1: for stealing money from her UM during that trial against 917 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:46,919 Speaker 1: him again because he was found guilty of seeing three 918 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:50,239 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars. From her book Advance, we learned that 919 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:54,720 Speaker 1: she was also pitching a paranormal TV show called Spooky Babes, 920 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 1: in which she travels the country investigating ghostly occurrences, and 921 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,919 Speaker 1: it was all inspired by her own quote personal experiences 922 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: that she had at her home in New Orleans, which 923 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 1: she said was haunted as fuck, and that's why she 924 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 1: should be out there. The really interesting part is she 925 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,839 Speaker 1: has a sidekick on the show in the form of 926 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:19,840 Speaker 1: a literal haunted doll that she brings around called Susan, 927 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:23,200 Speaker 1: who is supposedly possessed by the soul of a girl 928 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 1: who died in the nineteen sixties, and even brought this 929 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:30,360 Speaker 1: creepy doll to the surreal Life set. I think maybe 930 00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:32,840 Speaker 1: to try and do some like cross promo or something, 931 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:37,320 Speaker 1: but this, like the whole thing has become like also 932 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 1: a big part of the Abanati trial. The reason it 933 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,280 Speaker 1: came up is that he was like questioning her about 934 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 1: the ghosts, like extensively to try and paint her as 935 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:49,279 Speaker 1: like an unreliable like narrator, or that she's like struggling, 936 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 1: like she has delusions of like ghost stuff, and this 937 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,680 Speaker 1: dude apparently was like hammering the ghost stuff so much. 938 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 1: But everyone's like, this is not it, sir, And then 939 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 1: very quickly Gavel teamed on that yeah she really did. 940 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,759 Speaker 1: I can't imagine that kind of like victory she's going 941 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 1: to collect if this case ends up being the thing 942 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: that takes Trump down. But yeah, I would fucking I 943 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:19,320 Speaker 1: would try and monetize the fuck out of that. She 944 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 1: seems ready. I know she would have gotten sued into oblivion. 945 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:24,880 Speaker 1: But why would you call it spooky babes when you 946 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:31,399 Speaker 1: could call it buston?

Oh 969 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:51,440 Speaker 1: I can't. I can't even let that in. When when 970 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:53,319 Speaker 1: I was little, my mom took me to see The 971 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 1: Exorcist and the Amityville Horror and I is just like 972 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 1: I believe, and I'm super scared of it. So I 973 00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 1: don't want anything to do with it now. Personally, you 974 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 1: ever have any paranormal supernatural encounters? I don't know that 975 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,560 Speaker 1: I have, But my mom has had a lot, she's 976 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:17,439 Speaker 1: had a lot like personality thing. Maybe maybe I think 977 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: that maybe there's a level of awareness that some people have. 978 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 1: And like my four year old when he's twenty five now, 979 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 1: but when he was four, he saw me ironing and 980 00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:30,839 Speaker 1: he said, Mommy, that's the way I used to make 981 00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: grilled cheese sandwiches when I was a man. And then 982 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 1: he left the room and I came I'm like what 983 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:40,400 Speaker 1: and he didn't really he couldn't repeat it back to me. 984 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 1: But I think if that was true, like if he 985 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 1: had another life, a past life where he was because 986 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: my grandfather did that. My grandfather used ironing boards with 987 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:55,919 Speaker 1: wax paper to make grilled cheese sandwiches. Oh wild. That's 988 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 1: because they didn't have a hot plate, you know, so 989 00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:01,239 Speaker 1: they could plug in the eye and cook like that. 990 00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:06,240 Speaker 1: So there's I'm thinking like maybe when when you're a little, 991 00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:09,360 Speaker 1: when you're born, there's like a window to something else 992 00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 1: that we can't see as adults because we've been so 993 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 1: hardened and jaded. And then maybe some people aren't as 994 00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:17,720 Speaker 1: hardened and jaded their whole lives and they have ability 995 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,399 Speaker 1: to see other things. It's it's so funny because when 996 00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 1: I was like maybe eight or nine years old, and 997 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: I was in Japan, like with my cousins, we were 998 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:30,480 Speaker 1: walking at night, like from the convenience store, like you know, 999 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 1: like the kids walk by themselves all over the place, 1000 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 1: and we're walking like down this street and my cousin 1001 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 1: and his friends swore a ghost walked by, but I 1002 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:44,200 Speaker 1: saw a like piece of trash blow across the intersection 1003 00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:46,919 Speaker 1: where they saw it was a ghost, And I thought 1004 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:48,360 Speaker 1: I didn't know if they were trying to fuck with 1005 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:50,400 Speaker 1: me and be like that was a ghost or whatever, 1006 00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 1: but they genuinely were like it was a ghost. I'm like, 1007 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:55,560 Speaker 1: that was a bag, right, And it was just weird 1008 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:58,759 Speaker 1: how the two were very like insistent upon it. And 1009 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 1: then you know when we got home, like they were 1010 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:03,680 Speaker 1: like telling my aunt right, blah blah blah, And I 1011 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 1: was like, that's up bad going on with you. But 1012 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 1: then that was your first, your first step as a 1013 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 1: career gas lighter. Yeah, what are you talking about? There 1014 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 1: ain't known, there's nothing there. Meanwhile, I'm so scared anyway, 1015 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:27,120 Speaker 1: Well enough ghostock.

I have really been enjoying. It's Leslie Jones. 1040 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 1: And this goes back to the Woke Conversation calling out 1041 00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:53,520 Speaker 1: of Florida's Governor Ron de Santis for racism, saying that 1042 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 1: his erasure of black history is nothing short of racism 1043 00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:00,360 Speaker 1: and that she's angry about it, and she's few curious 1044 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:02,320 Speaker 1: in the post. So I've been sending it around to 1045 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 1: different people because I just think that she articulates in 1046 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:11,239 Speaker 1: this very very outraged way so perfectly what we've been 1047 00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 1: thinking and scared too. Like she talks about the n 1048 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 1: double acp issuing a travel warning to black people about 1049 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 1: Florida and like this is a place that doesn't that 1050 00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:24,480 Speaker 1: doesn't love us anymore, right, yeah, truly, I mean especially, 1051 00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:29,279 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's mind blowing how obtuse conservatives act, 1052 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:32,279 Speaker 1: and like I don't see how that changes anything, right, 1053 00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 1: if like, if there's no context to something that hastical significance, 1054 00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:41,800 Speaker 1: you're like, what as long as you all of history 1055 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:45,360 Speaker 1: and yes, you know, yes that's half in America that 1056 00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:47,879 Speaker 1: I guess this is crazy. But it's wild though too, 1057 00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:51,560 Speaker 1: that like their biggest fear is truly that people are aware, 1058 00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:54,800 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, and that is the biggest, 1059 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:57,440 Speaker 1: the most frightening thing, even when it goes along with 1060 00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:00,320 Speaker 1: like what was like there's a recently a film that 1061 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:05,479 Speaker 1: they pulled out of schools that were like yeah, yeah, exactly, yeah, 1062 00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 1: because a parent said they were afraid their white child 1063 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:11,880 Speaker 1: would learn about the racism that black kids were facing. 1064 00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:15,720 Speaker 1: Or still do. And you're like, excuse me, your fears 1065 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:18,760 Speaker 1: that they'll learn about the world. Yeah, really that was 1066 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 1: disingenuous though, right, Like the thing I saw was like 1067 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:23,560 Speaker 1: the parents like this one might teach my kid to 1068 00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 1: be racist, and it's like, yeah, okay, no, no, well, 1069 00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:29,160 Speaker 1: I mean I think that's either way. They're just mainlining 1070 00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:32,959 Speaker 1: the really stupid talking points. And yeah, I think because 1071 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:34,280 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, for them, they do 1072 00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:36,600 Speaker 1: feel that there is some kind of karmic debt, whether 1073 00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 1: or not they feel responsible for it, that does exist, 1074 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 1: and it's more about acknowledging it or not. And I 1075 00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 1: think that's karmic debt. It's fucking economic debt. Yeah, I'm 1076 00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,160 Speaker 1: not saying I think. Wow, people look at and sent 1077 00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, yeah, you know what I mean. It's like, 1078 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 1: it's not about that motherfucker. Yes, it's not about We're 1079 00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 1: not looking for you right now, we're saying it actually 1080 00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 1: observe what is happening and understand the system that exists, 1081 00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 1: and then work with us to dismantle it. But again, 1082 00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 1: equity to somebody who's been in the oppressor's seat looks 1083 00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:17,760 Speaker 1: like yeah different, yeah, exactly. So take the context out 1084 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:20,200 Speaker 1: and Rosa Parks was just some lady out of us 1085 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,040 Speaker 1: who really was rude to a guy. Right, I guess 1086 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 1: honestly how it looks if you because I think in 1087 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:28,840 Speaker 1: that telling of it they say she was a part 1088 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,760 Speaker 1: of a different group or something. So really, yeah, it's 1089 00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 1: really obscene honestly. Given Republicans, it's a little while they 1090 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:39,120 Speaker 1: don't pivot that into and that's why there shouldn't be 1091 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:43,760 Speaker 1: public transportation or public anything. I know. Right, it's like 1092 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:47,480 Speaker 1: somehow that's a bridge too far. Maybe not, you know why, 1093 00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 1: I'll say, with it a year or someone will make 1094 00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:52,560 Speaker 1: that pitch in seriously, Oh yeah, they're all private everything. 1095 00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:54,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it's oh, it's always all private everything with 1096 00:58:55,280 --> 00:59:00,880 Speaker 1: you know, hey, all the clouds. I guess that is 1097 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 1: stringing all the clowns and your te How about you? 1098 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:05,400 Speaker 1: Where could you find you? Follow you? And what's a 1099 00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:07,560 Speaker 1: tweet that you like? Because I haven't looked on social 1100 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 1: media as much as I like, and I usually just 1101 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:13,960 Speaker 1: look at your likes sometimes because I had to scroll 1102 00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:17,080 Speaker 1: through by shit.
