They need to do a 44 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: moonshot on procrastination and figure that out, and figure out 45 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: how to use crisper technology to gene edit that out 46 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: of people, because it's horrible.

Your headline 53 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: of the day. And maybe we'll take a look inside 54 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: the China cabinet later, because I've got a lot of 55 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 1: good China stuff. But China adds tax to condoms as 56 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: it works to boost birth rates. Well, if you want 57 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: less of something, you tax it. If you want more 58 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: of something, you subsidize it. That's why we tax employment 59 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: and subsidize drug addicts in America. 60 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 2: Uugh, moving law. 61 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 1: They're taxing condoms, Yeah, to try to get people to 62 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: use them with Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah, I mean the 63 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: tax would have to be just confiscatory, right, I mean, 64 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: I'd rather have and raise a child than spend that 65 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: extra thirty cents. So right, exactly, It's not like they're 66 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: it's the question of do you want a straw or 67 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: will you simp your iced tea out of your glass? 68 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 2: Nah? 69 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: I don't need a straw. No, it's a condome for 70 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: goodness sakes. Anyway, moving along, I thought this was interesting. 71 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: Who is using what social media in the United States 72 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: right now? The numbers are in for this last year, 73 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: and they are interesting and as you might guess, they 74 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: vary significantly by age group demographics. YouTube and Facebook remain 75 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: the most widely used online platforms. Eighty four percent of 76 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: US adults say they use YouTube at least occasionally. I 77 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 1: use YouTube every day, probably I I'm not a big 78 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: social media guy. Really YouTube called YouTube? I don't know. 79 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: I don't use YouTube as social media. It has comments 80 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: and people post short videos and stuff like that. It's 81 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: a quasi social media anyway. That that that seventy one 82 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: percent report using Facebook. 83 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: Hundred percent social media. Half of adults say. 84 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: They use Instagram, making it the only other platform in 85 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: the survey used by at least fifty percent of Americans. 86 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 1: Significantly smaller shares use the other sites and apps they 87 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: asked about, such as TikTok, which is not only a 88 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: communist Chinese spy device and a perverter of the principles 89 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: of our young, it is used by thirty seven percent 90 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: of American adults. 91 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: Can you ask what is the app? Thirty two? Yes? 92 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: Can you answer this question, Katie, because I think it's important. Like, 93 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,679 Speaker 1: for instance, I like the fact that my kids aren't 94 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 1: on social media as I define it. They're not on 95 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: Facebook or TikTok or Instagram, but YouTube's listed there they are. 96 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: They both use YouTube a lot. In what way is you? 97 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: Do you use YouTube as social media? Well, you're a millennial. 98 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: We're what's beyond boomers. We're the silent generation. Joe and 99 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: I were born in the twenties. I would think it's 100 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: social media silent to the last what I'm talking now, Yes. 101 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 4: I would think it's social media because you can record 102 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 4: content and put it out there for people to comment on. 103 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 4: And they've kind of gone the way of Instagram and 104 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 4: TikTok with those shorts. 105 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think either of my kids or me 106 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 2: use it that way. 107 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 1: Now, Now, when you say your kids are not on TikTok, 108 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: how do you know that, well, they don't have the app. 109 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: You don't need the app. How do you use TikTok 110 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,919 Speaker 1: without the app? Just the website? It works better with 111 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: the app, I'm told. Whatever that means the Chinese burrow 112 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: their way deeper into your soul. But every time I've 113 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: tried to use a TikTok without the app on my phone, 114 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: it wouldn't let me. So that's interesting. Anyway they tell 115 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: me to know have you have you rebooted? Let's see 116 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: moving along, where were we? Okay, so what's app? It rebooted? 117 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: What's app is thirty two percent. I wouldn't know what's 118 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: app if somebody I just I don't know it. I 119 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: with somebody I don't even remember what it was like 120 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 1: a month ago, or somebody only wanted to communicate through 121 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: What's app instead of texting. 122 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 4: Oh, it's so much better. It's it's a phone number 123 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 4: without an actual phone number. 124 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: And it's it's very easy. But I didn't understand the 125 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,679 Speaker 1: advantage of it over tech. I guess it's encrypted or something. 126 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: Then that helps. 127 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 2: I don't need my message that terrorist communicate. I don't 128 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 2: need my messages and encrypted, but if you do, I 129 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 2: guess it's good. 130 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: For you. 131 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 2: About a third of Americans use what's app. 132 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: I was surprised somewhat fewers say the same as Reddit 133 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: twenty six percent, Snapchat twenty five percent, x is twenty 134 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: one percent, threads eight percent, Blue Sky is four percent. 135 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: Man, do you hear about that? 136 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: You know, it's proof of what the media is that 137 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: you hear references to blue Sky as often as you 138 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: do if you're into the news. It's four percent of Americans. 139 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: Truth Social is three percent. By the way, a couple 140 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: of my oldest son's friends, children of college educated, well 141 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: to do, active parents, good families, they have the TikTok 142 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: app and watch TikTok videos. 143 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 2: They go to sleep watching TikTok.

Let's see well, for instance, 149 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: Instagram eighteen to twenty nine year olds. 150 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 2: Because this is just adults we're talking about here, eighty. 151 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: Percent of those young people are on Instagram, ninety five 152 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: percent YouTube again, is that really?

Yeah, and then I 174 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: know the numbers within Twitter of that twenty one percent 175 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: on there only like one percent post and dominate the 176 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: whole conversation. This this is not a breaking revelation. But like, well, 177 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,359 Speaker 1: like Katie your lineal did did? Did the evening newscast 178 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: have any relevance for you growing up? 179 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 2: No? None for you? Wow? 180 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: And like in my household, my dad usually somebody flipped 181 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: on the evening news and to things was on. 182 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, oh okay, I just met. For me, I mean 183 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 4: I might, I would always see my dad watching it. 184 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then I did during this I'm old. But 185 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 2: like for my kids, it means zero. 186 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: I mean they don't even know that there's such thing 187 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: as an evening newscast or a morning newscast or newscast 188 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: at all. Could you name your parents' favorite weather man 189 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: or a woman watching the evening news, because I remember 190 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: that was part of my childhood. 191 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 2: I knew their names. 192 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 1: Liars, Well, it was the only way to get weather 193 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: for one night. That's a good point. So getting back 194 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: to the who's using what social media, women stand out 195 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: in their use of several platforms, including Phasebook, Instagram, and 196 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: TikTok for instance. More than half of women report using 197 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:03,359 Speaker 1: Instagram fifty five percent, compared to forty four percent of men. Alternately, 198 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: men are more likely to report using platforms such as 199 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 1: x or Reddit. Let's see White adults are less likely 200 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,599 Speaker 1: than black and Hispanic adults and sometimes Asian adults to 201 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: use online platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and what's app. For instance, 202 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: forty five percent of white adults report using Instagram, compared 203 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: with larger shares among Hispanics. It's sixty two percent. That's 204 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: a seventeen point spread. Maybe it's just because Panics, blacks 205 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: and adults is a little less. Yeah, maybe it's just because 206 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: I'm old. But I don't understand how a conversation is 207 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: including what's happen YouTube. They're like as many people are 208 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: using cars or buying pumpkins this year, is the. 209 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: Way it sounds to me. 210 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: And I don't even know how they fall into the same category. Yeah, 211 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: if it was an analysis of where to put ad dollars, 212 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: maybe I'd get it. But yeah, they're very different to vehicles. 213 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 1: You're absolutely right. Let's see Democrats, demrad a, cleaning independence 214 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: more likely to report using WhatsApp, Reddit, TikTok, b louse 215 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: Guy and threads. Republicans more likely to say they use 216 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 1: X and truth social obviously. 217 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 2: Are we going to be on YouTube soon? Is that 218 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 2: ever gonna happen? 219 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 1: We've been talking everybody uses social media way way too much, 220 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: way too much, But we don't have time to talk 221 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: about that. Yes, we will be on YouTube soon, like 222 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: in the new year something like that. Yeah, or shortly thereafter, 223 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: and you'll be able to watch the show on YouTube 224 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: or watch it later on YouTube. I don't even know 225 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: what's happening. Somebody should tell me. Carefully selected highlights, the plans, 226 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: Jack are in flux.

I know, 320 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 2: I know well. 321 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,959 Speaker 1: Koreans Bah New Jersey has been ordered to implement gender 322 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,640 Speaker 1: identity friendly policies and educate staff on non discrimination after 323 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: being sued for refusing to allow a male into the 324 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: women's nude section, and Nelly writes, I feel like these 325 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one plot lines need to be retired.

I'm not surprised that that happens still, 329 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 1: because the individual battles are still going to happen. But 330 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 1: the sports thing that took compliance from a whole bunch 331 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: of different parents and teams and schools, and I thought 332 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 1: that people weren't too scared to stand up against that 333 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: at this point. I would have thought there'd de been 334 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: is so many teams that forfeited, so many parents that 335 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: pulled their kids off the field or the court, that 336 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: it wouldn't have happened, you know. I'd meant to mention 337 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: that the theme of this update is we are far 338 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: from winning this fight. We have just begun to turn 339 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: back the tide a little bit, because in hardcore woke 340 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: places like Massachusetts, for instance, they're still completely down with 341 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: the idea of well, he's now a woman because he 342 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 1: says he's a woman. Trans women are women, and they're 343 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: letting them run rough shot over the girls and Finally, 344 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: Nelly mentions an Irish school teacher who once again got arrested, 345 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 1: not the first time, because he refuses to use they 346 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: them pronouns for children in his class. You almost said 347 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: a woman got erected, which in these cases can happen. No, 348 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: I said a teacher, which you assumed was a woman, 349 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: because you're sexist. 350 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 2: Moving along. 351 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: Wow, The winner of the World's Strongest Woman competition was 352 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: stripped of her title Tuesday, I said the organizers and 353 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: saw that the hulking American never mentioned she was born 354 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: a man. I saw that Jamie with two ms, and 355 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: they got caught because of some porn they had posted. 356 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: Jammy Booker disqualified just days after she destroyed the competition 357 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: at the Official strong Man Games for Women in Arlington, 358 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: Texas over the weekend. Congredior girls. Men are better at everything, 359 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: including being women. But he he, he, I get these 360 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: mixed up all the time, don't so, dude. 361 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 2: They had. 362 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 1: Posted some porn on some site of them, like self 363 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: porn like, making it clear that they had junk in 364 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: the porn. So somebody saw that and said, hey, look 365 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 1: this woman that's a penis. So I just saw it, 366 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: So that kind of outed him. The organizers essentially said, whoops, no, yeah, 367 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: you're supposed to compete whatever you're born as. So again, 368 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 1: well done, sir. Way to show those girls what a 369 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: real woman is. 370 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 2: How could you take any joy in that. 371 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: Because you're mentally ill. Bad news from the UK. With 372 00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: the Labor Party now engaged, they have decided to more 373 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: or less ignore the incredibly important cast review recommendation that 374 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: any use of puberty blockers be confined to research. Well, 375 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: they've taken that to mean, let's do a major clinical 376 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 1: trial puberty blockers involving two hundred and twenty children under 377 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 1: the age of sixteen, including kids as young as ten. 378 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: They're going to feed these children. Two hundred and twenty 379 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 1: These young children will be fed dangerous puberty blockers in 380 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 1: the name of research, changing their bodies forever. Britain has 381 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: so lost its way it's absolutely terrible. Moving along, speaking 382 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: of those who haven't gotten the memo that this sort 383 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: of thing is ought to be over. Very sexual is 384 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 1: a word that's causing intrigue online. 385 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,719 Speaker 2: Jack that BOI or V is in vagina, b E 386 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 2: B is in boy b E r R are sexual. 387 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:58,439 Speaker 1: Very sexual is and this is quoting from a super 388 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: woke website. Sexual is a word that's causing intrigue online, 389 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: But what exactly is the new identity across squeer communities online? 390 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: New language continues to emerge to describe the full spectrum 391 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:15,959 Speaker 1: of attraction. For money, discovering what for many discovery shut up? 392 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: For many, discovering a word that captures their experience can 393 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: feel like a relief, almost like miss finding a missing puzzle. 394 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 2: Bats and it goes on for sentence after seven. 395 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: Shut up and tell me what very sexual means, even 396 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: though stupid. Although very sexual remains far less well known 397 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: than labeled such as bisexual or panseexuals, it's slowly saping 398 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: into conversations on Reddit, Tumblr, lgb blah blah blah blah blah. 399 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 1: Very sexual as someone who can be attracted to all genders, 400 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: but with a distinct pattern. Attraction toward women and female 401 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: aligned or non binary androgenist people is the default, while 402 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: attraction to men or masculine aligned people is lighter, rarer, 403 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: or more secondary. 404 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 2: Okay, I didn't follow that. Did you know that? Don't bother? 405 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 2: You still know what very sexual is? 406 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: I don't now now you're mostly attracted to girlish people. 407 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,479 Speaker 1: Sometimes once in a while, maybe on the weekends, you're 408 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 1: attracted to dudish people. 409 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 2: That's all it means. 410 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: Hey, all you very sexuals and pan sexuals and whatever 411 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,719 Speaker 1: the hell else you call yourselves. Google the following phrase 412 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 1: or chet gpt it the narcissism of small distinctions. I 413 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: think you might learn something moving along. Great piece by 414 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: Christopher Khalib in The National Review about how the Washington 415 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 1: State University removed a bunch of videos from a conference 416 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: about the Society for Evidence Based Gender Medicine. Activists got 417 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: hold of these videos of debates and discussions about what's 418 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: really good for his what's really healthy for kids, and 419 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: what's not. They they labeled this society a hate group, 420 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: attacked Washington State University for hosting the nation the courses 421 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 1: for nationwide use, and bullied Washington State into taking them. 422 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 2: Down all in about a day. 423 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: What zero to one hundred the activists can still bully 424 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:25,959 Speaker 1: a university into removing a discussion in which this organization 425 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: was simply saying, we need to do medicine based on evidence. 426 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: We need to be scientific about it, not emotional about it. 427 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:36,719 Speaker 2: What is the data? 428 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: And for that they were labeled a hate group and 429 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: taken down major state university. This fight is just beginning, 430 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: just barely beginning. I'm still blown away by that sports one. 431 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,679 Speaker 1: I didn't think we are still there anywhere in the 432 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,959 Speaker 1: country where there wouldn't be enough parents or coaches or 433 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: schools would say no, we're not we're not going along 434 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,239 Speaker 1: with this. Well, that's my point exactly. Is that in 435 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: your walk areas? Because keep in mind, in California, Jack, 436 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: the rebels who fought against it and boycotted games and 437 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 1: blah blah blah, they're still. 438 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 2: Running a foul of state law. 439 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: The state law in California is dudes get to kick 440 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: the crap out of girls on the field of play 441 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: in violation of Title nine. Gavin, even though you admitted 442 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: to Charlie Kirk, it's blightantly unfair, kind of sort of 443 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: with your rambling, I never say anything nonsense. It's a 444 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: gender bending madness update. 445 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 2: That's the ending. That's the ending. Okay oooh, all that's 446 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 2: that's what's her name? What's she up to these days? 447 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 2: That's a fella, He seemed confused. 448 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: What's he up to these days? I don't know nothing. 449 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: Not pitching bud light, that's for sure. I'll never forget 450 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 1: or go ahead and forget it. It's just beer. It's fine. 451 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 1: So I was listening to a discussion on a podcast 452 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: yesterday of his college football ruined or broken, and it 453 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: clearly is. 454 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 2: I don't know if there's any fixing it. 455 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 1: So it's bowl season. So your team, from what I understand, 456 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 1: that plays in the Bowl might have a different quarterback 457 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: than it had the entire season, right right or thirty 458 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 1: or players might sit out thinking I'm not playing that 459 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: stupid game. What's the point of that? And then you've 460 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 1: got the whole UC. Berkeley is in the Atlantic Coast Conference. 461 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: If you know anything about the way the conference has worked, Berkeley, 462 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 1: the cala is in the ACC. 463 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 2: I mean, there's a. 464 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: Bunch of examples of that that just make no sense whatsoever. 465 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 1: What if they'll ever be able to fix that? Again, 466 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: I've read various ideas and plans that have been pitched 467 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 1: for fixing college football. Again, A it's complicated, and B 468 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 1: I don't care enough to really dig into it. 469 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 2: But yeah, it's it's it's crazy what's going on right 470 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 2: now now? 471 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: Players being paid millions and millions of dollars right out 472 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: of high school to play for a college. I don't 473 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: have any problem with that, but they got to you 474 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: gotta stay with the same team. 475 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 2: You can't that that. 476 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: Whole transfer thing or whatever portal that's gotta go away. 477 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: I mean, whose idea was that? Yeah, I happen to 478 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 1: be tuning into the fight in a line on basketball 479 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: program as they got just absolutely dismantled by Yukon a 480 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: gam uh and thought, wow, I recognize one of those 481 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: dudes from last year one. Everybody else is just a 482 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 1: transfer portal guy or a euro who's pretending to study 483 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: or whatever. I don't know, it's ridiculous. It's still hot though. 484 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,479 Speaker 1: You look at attendance figures and tving money and uh, 485 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: you know, like the Big Ten championship game, number one Ohio, 486 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: number two Indiana. I believe they're certainly in the top ten. 487 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 1: That's right, they're number two in the conference. Doesn't matter. 488 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 2: It's gonna be a great game. I'm excited about watching it. Yeah. 489 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,360 Speaker 1: If attendance is still as hot and alumni are still 490 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: as hot for it and everything like that, then I 491 00:27:58,800 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: guess it continues on. 492 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 2: And I don't know, they lost me coming it'll last. 493 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, But like my brothers are super into college sports, 494 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: particularly Kansas basketball, and they're as hot for it as 495 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: they ever have been, and all the conferences are completely 496 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 1: different than they ever were. Yeah, the question is long term, 497 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: will it attract new fans? 498 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 2: Right? These ear marks? 499 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, players are making millions though.

The players are the ones that are 504 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: playing the game. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And we get to 505 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: drop the charade that this bms with an IQ of 506 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 1: sixty eight but runs like a deer, is you know 507 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: a student quote unquote at the IQ of sixty eight? 508 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: Well has that changed?

I don't know. 511 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: They probably still fake it up for some reason, but 512 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: I've lost track. 513 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 2: It's always been the reality. 514 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: I mean, if you ever went to college and had 515 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: like some big dumb athlete in your class, not then 516 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: they're not all dumb. 517 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 2: But some of them are, and I asks to be dumb. 518 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,959 Speaker 1: They just happened to be born with more athletic ability 519 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: than brain power. Yeah, but I had a few in 520 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: classes at various college situations, Isaac. 521 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 2: It's just like, what are you doing here? Right? And 522 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 2: they're saying to themselves, what am I doing here? I 523 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 2: can talk the basketball and pretending to go to class. 524 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 2: That's what I'm doing the Armstrong and Getty show, Jack 525 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 2: your show podcasts, and are hot Lakes? Can I begin with? 526 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 2: This story has no real point to me. 527 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to make a point of any kind, 528 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: because you might be listening trying to figure out what's 529 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: the point. 530 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to make a point. I just find 531 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 2: this interesting. This whole story. 532 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: About this transwoman who secretly recorded her cancer surgery. 533 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 2: It's just interesting. 534 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: She's filing a lawsuit against what the people said while 535 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: she was under which is again interesting. Every story has 536 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: a point, whether you want it to or not. I'm 537 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: not trying to make the nature of stories. I'm not 538 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: trying to make a major point about trans or anything 539 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: like that. So if you're waiting for that, it's it's 540 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: It is unusual for patients to record their own surgeries, 541 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: but not completely unheard of. I don't remember if we 542 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: talked about this lawsuit Back in twenty thirteen, Maybe we did. 543 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: A man recorded audio secretly while he was sedated and 544 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: sued during a colonoscopy because of antes geologist's remarks. The 545 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: doctor told other medical staff members that she thought. 546 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 2: It breaks yourself. 547 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: I have no idea what the next sentence when this 548 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: gets to what Joe was talking about earlier. We all 549 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: say things among friends or or you know, text friends 550 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: or family members or whatever, things that you know, we 551 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't say, I'll loud anyone else. And in this case 552 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,479 Speaker 1: you got anesthesiologists or doctors or whatever. 553 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 2: They don't think the patient's listening. 554 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: So the doctor told their medical staff members she found 555 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: the patient so annoying she felt like punching him. 556 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 2: She said. 557 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: A rash on the patient's genitals was probably penis of bola. 558 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 2: Wow, you don't want that. 559 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: The patient, who was awarded a half million dollars by 560 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: a jury, said he had hit record on his phone 561 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: because he wanted documentation of what the doctor said. 562 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 2: Why. 563 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: He worried that the sedation would leave him too groggy 564 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: to remember. What are you worried about? What do you yeah, 565 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: Wait a minute, that sounds like a cart before a 566 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: horse or you weren't concerned, you were trying, you were 567 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: hoping for something like that. 568 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 2: Anyway. 569 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: Well, what they were claiming, and it's the same thing 570 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: that this woman I'm you saying. Woman, this is what 571 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 1: the New York Times is calling this person, even though 572 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: they have a penis that they were recording it. And 573 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: I had this experience when I was doing cancer treatment. 574 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 1: You're so drugged up, and they're telling me all these 575 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 1: things you gotta do. If I hadn't had somebody there 576 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: with me some of the time to like write it down, 577 00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: you're giving me all these instructions of what I can 578 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: eat and how many pills have taken them, asked on 579 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: my mind on pills. So true, And so that's why 580 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: this person said they were recording the conversation. 581 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 2: It might be true, but you did it secretly. 582 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: You could like say, hey, I'm going to record you 583 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: just so I don't forget this, as opposed to secretly 584 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: hit your phone and then stash it when they put 585 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: you under. That makes it sound to me like you're 586 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 1: trying to catch them at something. Yeah, getting someone's consent 587 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: is and letting them know they're being recorded is just 588 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: common decency. It Jennifer Caspasso, a forty two year old 589 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: transgender woman, figured she was going to be dead in 590 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 1: eighteen months. She had been diagnosed with cancer and was 591 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: going to undergo some surgery. Uh, she decided to secretly 592 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: record her surgeons. I'll skip all the other stuff. I 593 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: wanted to know what's going on, she said, Knowledge is power. Okay, fine. 594 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 1: The surgery moved part of her lung. Did not getting 595 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: around to playing the recording until a few weeks later. Well, 596 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: that makes me feel like you weren't that interested in 597 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: what they said about your instructions. Though the audio was muffled, 598 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: she could follow some of what the surgical team was 599 00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,959 Speaker 1: saying before the procedure began. Again, this is a transit, 600 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: and that she has a penis in this story. 601 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 2: It's a man. 602 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: God, why do you allow the New York Times to 603 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: order you to pervert the language? Chicken makes it easier 604 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: to follow the story. But anyway, someone was going out 605 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 1: for coffee. Did anyone want something from Starbucks? That's one 606 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 1: of the things they got recorded during this arth. The 607 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: conversation just shifted, then shifted, still has man parts. It 608 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: seemed to miss Capasso that they were talking about her genitalia. 609 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 2: Wow, you are Sherlock Holmes. There. 610 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: On the recording, the healthcare workers expressed a variety of 611 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: opinions about transgender identity, more generally not that it's not right. 612 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 1: But one person can be heard saying and another said, 613 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: I don't get any of it. And in the middle 614 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: of the conversation, one person suggested updating the medical file. Yeah, 615 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: it needs to say mail on here, the person said. 616 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 1: When miss Capasso woke up, she found out that her 617 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 1: electronic medical records had been changed to M for male, 618 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 1: and now she's fighting to get it changed back and 619 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 1: suing the hospital for mis gendering her while she was 620 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: sleep or whatever the hell. Obviously I would think you 621 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: gotta have male on there, since male bodies require different 622 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,880 Speaker 1: care and maybe doses of drugs or whatever. 623 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 2: And react to drugs differently. 624 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: There are a hundred or more differences in medical care 625 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: between men and women. It's incredibly important. By the way, 626 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: this particular woman had had a half dozen procedures to 627 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: feminize her face, all the while undergoing cancer surgery. Her browbridge, 628 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:38,399 Speaker 1: her brow ridge was sanded down. That sounds pleasant. Her 629 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 1: orbital bone was shaved to give her eyes an upward tilt. 630 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: Her square chin was softened. There were cheek implants and 631 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: a change to her nose too. I needed radical surgical intervention, 632 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: she said. The clock was ticking. I didn't know how 633 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 1: much longer I was going to be alive. I wasn't 634 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,840 Speaker 1: going to die looking the way I looked. I wanted 635 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: to die leaving a pretty female corpse. This is a 636 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: story about a mentally ill man. It's a shame. That's 637 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: what I told you. I said, I don't really have 638 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: a point of than. I thought this was all interesting. 639 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: Browridge sanded down, orbital bone shaved to give your eyes 640 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: an upward tilt. I can't believe doctors even do that. 641 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: It's kind of the looking like a girl package. 642 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 2: Yeah wow.
