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

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: Weekly Zeitgeist. Uh These are some of our favorite segments

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: from this week, all edited together into one NonStop infotainment

4
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:22,440
Speaker 1: last stravaganza. Uh yeah. So, without further ado, here is

5
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: The Weekly Zeitgeist. So we're staying in a hotel while

6
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: we're in Chicago that used to be and is now

7
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: a Yeah, first of all, still owned by If you

8
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 1: don't know what it is, I mean shout out to

9
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: everybody who looked us up with this hotel. I don't

10
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 1: mean to talk down about it, but at the same time,

11
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,279
Speaker 1: I'm going to give my assessment honestly as a consumer.

12
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: It looks like what a sixty year old person's idea

13
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: of what a millennial wants to be in. Yes, it

14
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 1: looks like a Pinterest hellscape in here. Yes it looks

15
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: like Instagram through up on the inside of a hotel.

16
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: And the funny ship is when we check in there,

17
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: like and just so you know, the rooms are European inspired,

18
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: so they're a little bit cozier, which is code for

19
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 1: no closets. The motherfucking shower, I don't know if you'll

20
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: hear that I'm banging on the shower. The shower shower

21
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 1: is a phone booth right next to your bed, and

22
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: his head is sitting on a sink. But it's well designed,

23
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: so aesthetically I want to yeah, it's aesthetically nice. It's working.

24
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: I've got my like, yes, there's no closet, but they

25
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 1: give you a bunch of pegs to hang your ship on.

26
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: It looks like you look like a down and out

27
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 1: elementary school teacher, right, like at a halfway house. But

28
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: the TV says your name when you come in. You

29
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: said your name, Yeah, I said hello, said Internet TV

30
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: like Netflix U like all these streaming platform kids. We

31
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: get it. I turned the TV off to start working

32
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: on the dock today and it came back on. It's like,

33
00:01:54,880 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: what about Internet TV? What about these internet flicks? It

34
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: makes me mad. Is like the inconsistency in like culture,

35
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: Like when you come in, they give you like a

36
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: free drink ticket, but it's a poker chip And that's

37
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 1: the only Vegas thing about this entire thing. And then

38
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: everything else is like the burritos are like zombie inspired

39
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: for because that's millennial, right. It's like chasing there, they're

40
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: chasing trends. There's a Korean ex. Mexican food collab, which

41
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: is actually tasty. It wasn't tasty, yeah, but you know,

42
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: the truck did that to sort of bring that. It's

43
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 1: all sort of derivative off of things that were huge

44
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: like eight years ago. It was it was designed by

45
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: the grandchild of whoever designed t g I Fridays and

46
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: like he's a millennial who like it's just like they

47
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: even had extreme sports on. It's like we do normal sports.

48
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: That millennial like that extreme sports being pected on. It

49
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: was at the what I was checking in, the person

50
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: at the front has got a call like on the

51
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 1: line and goes, hey, what's up. It's Amy at the

52
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: what do you need? Actually? Can you hold on him

53
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: dealing with a customer, and like that seemed to have

54
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: been like the protocol for everybody watching the phone was

55
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: like this sort of like hey, we're casual, we're kids.

56
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: It totally is because housekeeping lets you know if they're

57
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 1: coming by knocking the beat of grinding, Yes they do. Bro, Dude,

58
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: I wish I could do the table like this. It's

59
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: like housekeeping. No housekeeping. I heard her do it like

60
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 1: five times. That wasn't the beat from grinding. I'm not

61
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: it was bad. It was I'm not great at it,

62
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: but it was a but then they did housekeeping rhythmically

63
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: in between the drum housekeeping wow grinding and did they

64
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: have like a dice in little like cord like a

65
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: cordless back and she was naked. I think the girl

66
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: checked us in, who was very nice by the way,

67
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: but I think she had like a fake tattoo on

68
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: her or either that or like it was a tattoo

69
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: that like she was even removed. Anytime I'm in like

70
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: hanging out with a millennial, I'm always like looking to

71
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: the elder millennial. Yeah, yeah, I'm elder millennial and so

72
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know you were, And I'm always conscious

73
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 1: and I was like, these people have to have tattoos.

74
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: They would be fired if they didn't. I haven't seen

75
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: a regular looking person working in this hotel. Like even

76
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: the white people have dreads, right, It's true. I was like, yo,

77
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 1: one shout out to home girl with the cinnamon bun

78
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 1: roll one dreadlock curled up like the smell. Are we

79
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: gonna have to bleep the name of the hotel since probably,

80
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: oh well, it's a millennial inspired hotel. And the other

81
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: thing they did like we were talking about it's so

82
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: small but it's smart, like it works. Is the is

83
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: the thing that I want to come back to the apologist. No,

84
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 1: I'm not being an apologist. So like we were, we're

85
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: standing over there waiting for our delicious nachos, talking shit

86
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 1: about the place being like this place so stupid, look

87
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: at the decor. And then we came back to the table.

88
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: One of our fans was having a drink with us

89
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 1: and we were like, so, what do you think of

90
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: this place? She's staying here and she was like, I

91
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: like it. It's fun. I was like, oh yeah, alright fast,

92
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 1: and I'm like I'm all too yeah, because like the

93
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 1: lobby is has a DJ spinning questions of your favorite

94
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: board games, the gigantic you know cards said, I'm sorry

95
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: that was a step too far. I can understand the

96
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 1: connect for in big Jenga, but gigantic playing cards they're

97
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: not even useful, Like how are you going to be

98
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: poy about your hand? And when each card is three

99
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 1: ft hot, You're like, oh, okay, I see what you're doing.

100
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: You're like shuffling a four foot card with wild connect

101
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: for it does make it more fun with you know

102
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: it's just like yeah, but yeah, I mean it's fun

103
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: and it's and it's profitable. You know, it's fun, it's

104
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: fun for millennials and it's profit well because I like

105
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 1: think about how many extra rooms they cram into this,

106
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: Like a normal hotel would have half as many rooms,

107
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: but they were just you know, the rooms in half

108
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: European inspired, Yeah, fancy capitalist cubicles from Yeah, it's just

109
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 1: they It's basically like the social media manager from a

110
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: company was like, what if I opened a hotel. Yeah,

111
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: well you know there were like I saw like masks

112
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 1: you could use for like gramming. Yeah, because if you're

113
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: at a wedding, there's literally a giant pillow in the

114
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: lobby that says do it for the Graham. Now that's

115
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: the table. But there's also a moving podcast studio. Yes

116
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: that we were like, oh, dope, we can use that,

117
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 1: and then we saw it was the size of I'm

118
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: not even joking, like a bathroom stall. Yeah, like Darth

119
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: Vaders like pod that he sleeps in. It's fine, you know,

120
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: it's for two people, but you can't do a second

121
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: rate podcast like this. That's why we always as hotel room.

122
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 1: We sound like some Spoiled Podcast. I want to I

123
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: want to bring something up real quick if I can. Yeah,

124
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: it is. They're Darren by thirty points. There's no way

125
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: they're going to win this game. Hill san Antonio spurs

126
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: down my thirty three points. At some point, yas should

127
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: stop right like like Quin, I feel like they should,

128
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: like I don't want to keep going. Get the fucking breaks,

129
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: beat off you. Yeah, the coach will leave them in

130
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: like he's leaving his first stringers in because he wants

131
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: feel the shame offense. The unfortunate thing is san Antonio

132
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: just lost by thirty to Dallas, so they're struggling right now.

133
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: They are. But anyway, for those of you who are

134
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: time traveling, this is a game that has already happened.

135
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, enjoy that little bit of insight. Yeah, off

136
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: the bead. I wanted to talk about the shitty, awkward

137
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: high five heard round the world between Vladimir Putin and MBS.

138
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: You said white guy high five. I'm like, I think

139
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: only one of those guys counsels, right. Yeah, Well it's

140
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 1: just you're asking the wrong person. Putin's just got his

141
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: hand up and he's like yeah. There's like a big pause.

142
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: Before where he gets that white guy anxiety about how

143
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 1: am I going to do this high five? I don't know.

144
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: So for those of you who clearly are not looking

145
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 1: at the gift, we're looking at it's at Yeah, from

146
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: the g twenty when Vladimir Putin and Mohammed been Salma on,

147
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: the crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, caught each other a

148
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: little summit and the way they high five sent chills

149
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: through my spine. I just retweeted the video and said,

150
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: when you both sucking the same nation, because it's sort

151
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 1: of like they're like, yeah, boy, oh yeah they are.

152
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it's the confidence. And also the funniest part

153
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: is when Trump is sheepishually comes in from the vaccine, Yeah,

154
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: you guys talking about me, and he's like looking from

155
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: a distance, like, hey, what's up. Well, I mean, these

156
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: are two men who clearly have some kind of power

157
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: over Trump, whether it's clearly financial in the terms in

158
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 1: terms of MBS, or it's some kind of compromise thing

159
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 1: for Putin, like we're looking the other way with the

160
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: hashoji murder. We're looking the other way with everything. We

161
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: already talked about the fact that you can see Trump

162
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: in the background. Yeah, he just comes in late. Like,

163
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: but there's a photo that someone put online where you

164
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 1: can like see him looking looking yeah at them. It's

165
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: like a very split second, but he's like and you

166
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: can see the sadness in his eyes of like, well, yeah,

167
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: and Putin's clearly doing it. He this is I've never

168
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: seen him like demonstrative, like he's the showing out. He's yeah,

169
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: it's like he's somewhere with an X and he's trying

170
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 1: to show like how good I'm doing. Yeah, Oh I've

171
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: been who Donald never heard of? And bs is bay

00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,839
Speaker 1: now right, And yeah, he's just trying to he's doing

173
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: it for Trump. He's doing it for the Western cameras

174
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: to just be like, yo, I am public enemy number one.

175
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: I am going to buck you up, Like, look, this

176
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: dude murdered one of your journalists and now he is

177
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 1: my best friend because he did that. Can I cannot

178
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: be real with y'all? Well, and it hurts me that

179
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 1: we're not talking about this. How sad it must feel

180
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: to be Donald Trump right now because your friends don't

181
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: want to let you go talk to him. They're like,

182
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: don't go, don't go over there, don't talk you can't

183
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: talk to don't talk to them, not good for you.

184
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: And he all he wants to do is go over there,

185
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: but he can't because he has to put on the

186
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: show for everybody else. Also, yeah, he didn't even want this.

187
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: I'm going back to the game real quick. Everyone's doing

188
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: this thing of wearing suits for Craig Sager and Mark

189
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: Jackson is clearly not playing a lot. He's like, he's like,

190
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: this is my I have boundaries. Have boundaries, were super bass,

191
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: sup because get out of cancer, not me, Bro, Mark

192
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: Jackson is the wrong one. MoMA, there go that man

193
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: with no empathy. But but I have this think that

194
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: like Donald Trump is like again I have no sympathy

195
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 1: for the man. Yeah, yeah he's evil, but this is

196
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: a situation, bro, of like this thing is mocking goddamn

197
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: before you. And then he also uncanceled their meeting Trump

198
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 1: what basically, Trump's people canceled the meeting for him and

199
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: we're like this would be very bad. And then Putin

200
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: was like, well you don't buy his reasoning for that,

201
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: and we're still going to have the meeting anyway. Was

202
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: so fucking savage, was like, m like it was so sarcastic, like,

203
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 1: that's interesting that they say they canceled it for those reasons,

204
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: but we feel that that's entirely not the case. It's

205
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: probably due to domestic problems that the president is facing

206
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: in his own country. The meeting, like they will meet,

207
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: whether it's informally or not. Yeah, that's some pimp ship. Yeah,

208
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: that's like, yo, you're not breaking up with me right, Like, okay,

209
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: watch this, Yeah, which is very frightening, which is a

210
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: good sign that you should get a restraining order against somebody.

211
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 1: But why do you do that? The U n or NATO,

212
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: who's going Yeah, it really just solidifies him as like

213
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: openly being the villain, and there's just nothing we can

214
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 1: do because of who our prisident is at the moment.

215
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 1: He's just he's just a punk bro like straight up

216
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: as a punk. Doesn't want to, like, you know, be tough,

217
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 1: and I get it, it's not an easy situation to

218
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: be tough in, but come on, bro, have some balls

219
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,439
Speaker 1: at least self respect. He was never I think that's

220
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,199
Speaker 1: the difference is we're trying to look at him as

221
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: even being a president. It was just some fucking schemer

222
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: who found his dumb ass way into it, and I

223
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 1: was like, shoot, I'm the president. Now, he's just a

224
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: narcissism complex with a dick that just like goes around

225
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: just being like yo, like what is going to either

226
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: get my dick wet or make me feel important? And

227
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:45,839
Speaker 1: that makes narcissism complex with a dick. Yeah, it was.

228
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: It didn't get a lot of huh, what was your

229
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: porn name? Haitian Stallion? Oh, that's very original? Is it?

230
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: Your porinn name is supposed to be your middle and

231
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: what is it your pets name? Plus the street you're

232
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: born on? And those are both also correct. We want

233
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: to talk a little bit about the recently deceased President

234
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: George Herbert Hawker Bush because the nation is in mourning.

235
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 1: There's a national day of Morning on Wednesday of this week,

236
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: as declared by our current fearless leader. And this is

237
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: this is one that we've actually had our eye on

238
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: for a while. To put it in one way, I

239
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: mean our story. Yeah, and it impending his kind of

240
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 1: impending demise because you know they say that once one

241
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: member of the elderly couple goes, then soon after, if

242
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: they're truly in love or if the woman is really

243
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: the backbone and the hard ass and the muscle in

244
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:02,199
Speaker 1: the relationship then as in this case than maybe uh

245
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: you know, there, I'd say the length of time he

246
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: died after her proofs he didn't really love her. Wow,

247
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: Well that we were debating, a lot of people were saying, like, oh,

248
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 1: he'll probably be more heartbroken. It could be weeks, could

249
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: be months. He went on for months. Yeah, I mean, uh,

250
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,719
Speaker 1: you know, the I don't want to say that we

251
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: were taking action on when we thought this might happen,

252
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: but we might have been. And I'll just leave that there. Yeah,

253
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: and maybe Nick or I have one and we'll have

254
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: to look at the digital evidence. But uh yeah. It

255
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: was interesting though to see all the uh the very

256
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: interesting uh I guess changing of history, or at least

257
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 1: the very selective focus on certain aspects of his presidency.

258
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: And it's a great thing about being a likable, charismatic

259
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: guy is that you can do horrible things like Trump.

260
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna be like telling warm stories about Donald Trump,

261
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: like mainstream media won't, but you've got a lot of

262
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: people doing it for Bush because he was just a

263
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 1: charming guy. Yeah, and he got along with his critics

264
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: like him and Dane A. Carvey were like pals, even

265
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: though Dana Carvey would like regularly make fun of him

266
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 1: on S and L. Yeah. Well, and he was fine

267
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: with Dana Carvey, but he was really pissed about the Simpsons,

268
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 1: which is why the Simpsons made the greatest step. But yeah,

269
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: he he mentioned them specifically in a speech, something about

270
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 1: like how we needed more of less Simpsons. Yeah, less

271
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: less people who are like the Simpsons. Basically like the

272
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: Simpsons had Marge write him a letter and stuff, being like, well,

273
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: we think our families pretty okay, And it was it

274
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: was like this whole thing, and that's why they made

275
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: that episode where Homer and Bart fight with George H. W.

276
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: Bush the best episode of the Simpsons. Yeah, that's funny

277
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: to remember a time when The Simpsons was like the

278
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: edgiest thing going in America, and they're like, look how

279
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: big they made Ross Perot's ears, he said, don't have

280
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: a what. Yeah, I mean he lived an indisputifully interesting life.

281
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: There's a picture of him shaking hands with Babe Ruth

282
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: baseball diamond when he's in college. He was not the

283
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: world's greatest military pilot, but one, you know, the right

284
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: level of military pilot to have lived a very interesting

285
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: career as a military pilot where he got shot down

286
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: against that whole thing. Yeah, got got shut down a

287
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: lot a lot of people. Is the only person known

288
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: to have crashed a plane off the naval pier in Chicago.

289
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 1: That was a piece of piece of trivia we learned

290
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 1: this weekend. What is it about Republican statesman and not

291
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: being very good pilots because because they got I'm just saying, well,

292
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: I mean Harrison Ford though, and he's you know, is

293
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: he conservative? No, he's not, so I was saying, you

294
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: might as well be. With his look of having that airring,

295
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: I'd be like a conservative and denial. But I would

296
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: just assume that I can buy acid from him from

297
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: and that would be my first question Harrison Ford. And

298
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: you're like, what, okay, come over here. Yeah, but I mean,

299
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 1: besides the vid Kappa feel his grabbing women on the

300
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: a s and telling them, yeah whilst telling them the

301
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: joke you know my favorite magician is that that all

302
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,400
Speaker 1: happened in the past, you know, handful of years when

303
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 1: he was in a wheelchair, very old, maybe wasn't fully

304
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 1: at functioning level. But besides that, I can't really think

305
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: of a bad thing to say about the guy can

306
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 1: get you do a show called Behind the Bastards robbery,

307
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: and I'm feeling there's no material for you when you

308
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: talk about George h heard about the Highway of Death. Yeah,

309
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: I mean, but it actually happened when the Iraqi army

310
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 1: was in retreat. There were thousands upon thousands of men,

311
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 1: many of them in civilian vehicles, fleeing from the highway

312
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: from Kuwait back into Iraq. There were no longer any

313
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: threat to the United States military, not that they've been

314
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 1: that much of a threat to begin with, but they

315
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: were running the hell away and he ordered them bombed.

316
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: And we don't know how many people died, thousands upon thousands.

317
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: There are max sures you can find, particularly of one

318
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: man burnt alive in a car he was trying to

319
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 1: tree himself. Yeah, horrible pictures. It was a war crime.

320
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 1: We didn't need to do it, it was. It was

321
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 1: an act of military terrorism that George Bush approved because

322
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 1: he essentially wanted to send the message to Iraq, stop

323
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,640
Speaker 1: it with the fucking invading people stuff. So you can

324
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: debate whether or not you think that was justified based

325
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 1: on your own personal ethics, but he ordered the bombing

326
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 1: of thousands upon thousands of fleeing people. Probably no threat

327
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: to anyone. Yeah. An interesting thing about him that people

328
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 1: probably don't remember now because the media probably doesn't like

329
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 1: to bring it up that much, but one of the

330
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: big marks against him at the time was that he

331
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: was a whimp. Whimp there, like this guy's a win

332
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 1: right headline president a wimp. So in order to counteract that,

333
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,360
Speaker 1: he did, you know they people have suggested that that

334
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: might have been why he went so ham in the

335
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: Operation Desert Storm. Weird flex but okay, and why he

336
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 1: invaded Panama in December. There there's a pretty interesting documentary

337
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: about that where the US invasion does not come off

338
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,199
Speaker 1: all that positively. Okay, let who among us has not

339
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: invaded Panama once? Right? I mean, I'm not gonna I'm

340
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: not gonna throw shade on the guy. I did take

341
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: a river tour on the Sarapiki River and was near there,

342
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 1: but no. The other thing is the coverage is all

343
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,400
Speaker 1: sort of juxtas, like they're using Trump to be like, man,

344
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,679
Speaker 1: remember this, remember civil civility like with our politicians. And

345
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: I think, right, I guess comparatively but there's a lot

346
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 1: of parallels to like, you know, Bush pardoned a bunch

347
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 1: of people from the Iran contrat thing so he wouldn't

348
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 1: get in trouble and was a major aspect of the

349
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,719
Speaker 1: War on drugs cracking down so much harder, and like

350
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,239
Speaker 1: kind of had the FBI and trap a nineteen year

351
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,159
Speaker 1: old into selling crack near the White House so he

352
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: could claim that you could buy crack near the White House,

353
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 1: even though they had to go all the way to

354
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,400
Speaker 1: the other side of the city and give the kid

355
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 1: directions because he didn't know how to get to Like

356
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 1: he didn't know what the White House was really if

357
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: he said oh, I think his exactent sentence was like, oh,

358
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: is that where Carter lives or something that Carter um Reagan.

359
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 1: So he's like he didn't know anything about Like they

360
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: brought him there so they could be like you could

361
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: even buy a crack, you know, in the shade of

362
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 1: the White House. Yeah, that's pretty messed up to I mean,

363
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:31,199
Speaker 1: at the same time, having a outwardly respectable president is

364
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,639
Speaker 1: I feel like I was underrating it up to that

365
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: two years ago, Like was he a race baiting asshole

366
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: at times? Of course he was also the head of

367
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 1: the c i A at a time that America was

368
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: doing dirt. But he had the common decency to pretend

369
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: not to be racist or evil in his day to

370
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: day behavior, thus signal to whites across America racism bad. Yeah,

371
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: and I think we don't. That is an important thing. Yeah, yeah,

372
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: just keep that ship inside what he wants. Well, and

373
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,439
Speaker 1: just like for all the bad things he did, he

374
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 1: was never someone we were like, oh, this guy might

375
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 1: just flip out and start dropping nukes, like nobody worried it. Right, Well,

376
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 1: he one thing he did have a good head was

377
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: foreign policy. From being he's a stable personality. He did

378
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 1: things I don't agree with, but he was clearly not

379
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: a madman. He was a guy who made really morally

380
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 1: questionable decisions. But not like nobody was worried that George W.

381
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: Bush was a lunatic. H W h W. Even with

382
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 1: W like, I never thought he was going to drop

383
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 1: the nukes, just at he was just a dummy. Well yeah,

384
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,199
Speaker 1: I mean again, you know, he wasn't much for the

385
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,199
Speaker 1: Civil Rights Act of six to four when he was

386
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,199
Speaker 1: running for a congressional seat in Texas, and uh, we

387
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: all know that Willie Horton ad kicking off we love

388
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: old dog whistle racism, you know, caping for Clarence Thomas.

389
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: A lot of parallels I think really would drop in

390
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 1: in certain aspects. But yeah, I think, yeah, there was there.

391
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 1: I guess that civility, I guess, but I think at

392
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: the I think we'd look away from like his terrible

393
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: record when it comes to like the AIDS epidemic. He's

394
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: like that dred and forty Americans died under his his

395
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,479
Speaker 1: his and he one of his big innovations was banning

396
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 1: people with AIDS from entering the country, which further stigmatized

397
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 1: the disease. I don't like him, but I agree. I

398
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 1: think rather than calling it civility, it's what Jack said

399
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 1: is really good, which is just like he didn't send

400
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: overt signals to be racist, and that's a thing that

401
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: it's because like the current administration does all the other

402
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: shady stuff that h W would have done and also

403
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 1: does that. So like, yeah, I get that there was

404
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 1: some balance. It's like John McCain I have a lot

405
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,399
Speaker 1: of issues with, but he didn't like torture and it

406
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: was better when there was a Republican being like tortures bad,

407
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: like now there's not and that like, yeah, all right,

408
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back,

409
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: and we're back. One last thing about the President is

410
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: that the Senate, and specifically Senate Republicans, have decided he's

411
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 1: full of ship when it comes to the murder of Hesho.

412
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:20,199
Speaker 1: Who's who's who's fullshit? The President and and Mohammed been

413
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: so almah, yeah, they're all yeah, yes. So the CIA

414
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: brief the Senate and told them what everyone has seemed

415
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: to know along that NBS ordered the murder of Hehogi.

416
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: The CIA did some spy ship, presumably because they know

417
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: that there was WhatsApp messages exchanged between MBS and like

418
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: head assassinator, the lead of the assassination team around both

419
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: before and after the murder, so like he was kind

420
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: of in the know when that was going on. Uh,

421
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: and even like told MBS is right, and he's like,

422
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 1: tell your boss he's dead. Like I think was one

423
00:23:55,160 --> 00:24:00,160
Speaker 1: of the messages, which is, yeah, if I could offer

424
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: some punch up writing for your what's that messages? And

425
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: because what a sinister job for a comedian? Yeah, well yeah,

426
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 1: I think his last week, right, Mike Pompeo and General

427
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: Madis went up there and basically through what was left

428
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 1: of their credibility into the dumpster fire. And we're like,

429
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: I think Pompeo said, oh, well, there's no direct reporting

430
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,920
Speaker 1: that could link this. Maddis said, there's no smoking gun,

431
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: quote unquote, And then you have people like Lindsay Graham

432
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 1: coming out. He's like, there might not be a smoking

433
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 1: gun because there's a smoking saw. And you're like, is

434
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 1: that huge? You a little bitchy? Yeah, you know, it's whatever. Whatever.

435
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: You weren't properly lubricating it. Friction something, The friction will

436
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 1: cause the right material to smoke. He was a stone cutter.

437
00:24:53,040 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Jamie, the thing you have myself. Um. Yeah.

438
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: So the other thing is that the CIA was supposed

439
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 1: to brief the Senate last week, and the White House

440
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: specifically stopped that from happening. Yeah, and it finally happened today. Yeah.

441
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 1: And even I'm you know, I'm surprised that they found

442
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,400
Speaker 1: their backbone on this one, because there's another thing. Even

443
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: Bob Corker, I mean, look, we know now that he

444
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 1: doesn't have to face any kind of election, he's just

445
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: saying whatever, but like a journalist asked him, said, after

446
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: hearing from hospital today, this is him asking Bob Corker

447
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,159
Speaker 1: hospital today and Maddis Pompeio last week. Was there a

448
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: difference in the message or the determination that NBS was

449
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:42,880
Speaker 1: responsible for the Hoshoji murder. Pause. Corker um, difference between

450
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: darkness and sunshine. Yeah, there you go. Wow, thank you

451
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: for that one. Uh So, I mean, we'll we'll see

452
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 1: if that will affect anything exactly one point for a

453
00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 1: Senate Republican. Yeah. I want to talk about Laura Lumer.

454
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: This broke after we recorded at the end of last week.

455
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: After she claimed that Representative elect ellan Omar's entire religion

456
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: was oppressive towards women and gays and Jews. She got

457
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: banned from Twitter. Uh and that pissed her off because

458
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: she's a far right activist and they're supposed to, you know,

459
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: Objack Dorsey's supposed to be looking out for them. Uh So,

460
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 1: she began arguing the letter of the law. She was like,

461
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 1: everything I said was true, which it isn't. But even

462
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: if she could like claim that in some technical sense

463
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,479
Speaker 1: it was true in the context she was saying it,

464
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,959
Speaker 1: Twitter can do whatever the funk they want, Dude, like,

465
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 1: this's you're not it's a private company. It's a private company.

466
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: They you post at their discretion, as we've annoyingly found

467
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 1: out with our own Jamie loftus. But you know that

468
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: it works the other way. And if you're evil and

469
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: they successfully read the intent of your hate speech, yeah

470
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,479
Speaker 1: you don't get to just throw ah, you know, just

471
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,160
Speaker 1: flip out. So her her first response was to claim

472
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 1: that the president was going to uh intervene on her

473
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: behalf because you know, he gets censorship that the liberal

474
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: media machines are against the right. So he was like, yeah,

475
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: he'll step in on my behalf because I'm doing the

476
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: right thing, so I don't have to worry. I mean

477
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 1: that that was step one of the just being like

478
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 1: spinning out like a spoiled child in a toy store

479
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: who hasn't gotten what she wanted. Uh, So claiming the president,

480
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 1: my my daddy's gonna come. Uh that that didn't work,

481
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: And then so she went to Twitter's offices in New

482
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: York City and handcuffed herself to one of the doors.

483
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,120
Speaker 1: She didn't want to create a fire hazard, so only

484
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: one of the doors, and then threw away the key

485
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,920
Speaker 1: and Twitter decided not to press charges. They were like fine.

486
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 1: I mean it's cool because if they when the cops

487
00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 1: showed up, they're like, well, do you want to press charges?

488
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 1: We can remove and they're like no, let you're good.

489
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,880
Speaker 1: Let's see how let's see how if she's built for this. Uh.

490
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 1: And also the one thing was wow that she had

491
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: like a sort of star of David from like you know,

492
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 1: like the Nazi Germany era, like sewed on to her shirt.

493
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: Was really doing a lot in her demonstration. I mean,

494
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 1: it's attacking where you're weak, is the thing that the

495
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,399
Speaker 1: conservatives have, just like it's just second nature to them.

496
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,159
Speaker 1: That's what they always do. So if you're a Nazi,

497
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 1: you claim to be a victim of Natzi, right, Like

498
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 1: that's just how Just if you're a racist you claim

499
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 1: to be a victim of reverse racist. Yes, it's a

500
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: good I mean, I I get the very elementary logic

501
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 1: behind that, but it doesn't hold up after two seconds.

502
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: I thought that y'all would learn, you know, from the

503
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 1: multiple times that I've been here, that y'all are looking

504
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 1: at this all wrong. Okay, And y'all I'm not looking

505
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 1: at the sacrifice that she made. You understand what she

506
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 1: could have been doing that day, and then she chose

507
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 1: to her own, you know, prerogative aside so she could

508
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 1: chain herself to the Twitter building. I don't know, man

509
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: if Ariana Grande did it. Y'all be cheering her on.

510
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: I'll be so happy. I'll be so probably you all

511
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: want to disrespect this woman for exercising her right. Well,

512
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: the best part was when she was like, you know,

513
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: and I'll pee myself if I have to. But then

514
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: she wasn't willing to actually back that up. She was like,

515
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 1: after like an hour, she was like, all right, this

516
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 1: is boring. I don't want to do it anymore. It

517
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: just shows you how shallow her thinking was, like how shortsighted.

518
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: It was like, well, do this and people will gather

519
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: and I'll make this point. And then she's like, wait,

520
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: but if I do away the key and I'm really

521
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: supposed to pretend that I'm about this demonstration, then I

522
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: would have to urinate on myself. Wait where am I

523
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 1: getting food? Wait? What about these other things? And then yeah,

524
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: eventually I just like to get at it. And a

525
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 1: cop was like, you seem like a nice white girl.

526
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: There's other social media's out there for you. You literally said,

527
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: oh he really said nice white girl. No, no, but

528
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: he said there's other media. There's other media's out there. Hunt.

529
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: It's just funny that he was like talking to her,

530
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 1: like you'll you'll catch the next one. There's a funny

531
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: pick of like this NYPD cop like white guys just

532
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 1: looking at her doing like the quintessential like sarcastic New

533
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: Yorker smile, like all right, yeah, nice, right there, Yeah, alright, guys,

534
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 1: the thank you next video. I know it's all Robert

535
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: that you've been talking about for the past couple of days. Um,

536
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: I can't get enough Pete, Pete Davidson. Yeah, he's not,

537
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 1: but the video references him. The It's a very well

538
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: executed video for a very catchy song from the most

539
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: famous person on earth, with a very specific demographic the

540
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 1: sorts of people who would watch a video premier online.

541
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 1: Um so this was unsurprisingly an enormous hit when it premiered.

542
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 1: At a certain point a d people were viewing the

543
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: video at the same time on YouTube, which is pretty

544
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: insane because YouTube is a pretty huge sight and it

545
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 1: managed to like cause lag time on YouTube. It was

546
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: like too much for Google. Yeah, yeah, So the way

547
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: that this has kind of filtered down to people who

548
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: aren't Ariana Grande is that yesterday there were a couple

549
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: of stories breaking about Pete Davidson claiming to be bullied,

550
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: and uh, it did make me realize what a uniquely

551
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: shitty position the video kind of puts him in, because

552
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 1: it's sort of casually dismisses his role in her life

553
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: as just you know, like one step among many, like

554
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: he's put in a list of four different ex boyfriends.

555
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: She also reveals in the video that she broke up

556
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 1: with him because her burn book says sorry I dipped

557
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: it has his face scratched out, and uh puts him

558
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: in just an unremarkable third position in a succession of

559
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: four x is and who's number one, Big Sean who

560
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: she says she thought she'd end up with, and in

561
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: the burn book, the things she writes about him is

562
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: could still get it. So it's got to hurt a

563
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: little bit if you're Pete Davidson, You're trying to get

564
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: over this breakup. And then yeah, the guys like I'd

565
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 1: still suck this one though, right understand what sorry I

566
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 1: dipped means sorry sorry I had you dip? Out on you.

567
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 1: I dipped out, I abandoned you, I left you this

568
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: people were wondering who left too, who dumped two And

569
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: she kind of put it out there right, And it

570
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: just sucks too because he doesn't have nearly the same

571
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: kind of cachet she does. So immediately everyone's like, oh,

572
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 1: Pete Davidson's whack then, which I think probably led him

573
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: to write about how like, man, so many people are

574
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 1: like telling me to kill myself, and yeah, it's pretty

575
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 1: messed up, Like you can't. Maybe you can't do something

576
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: like that anymore. Like it's not like would tell somebody

577
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: killed themselves online in a comment. No, I mean you

578
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 1: can do that, and in fact it's very popular kid. No.

579
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 1: But like back in the like musicians have always written

580
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: songs about their past relationships or in the case of

581
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 1: Eric Clapton, about just some lady who wanted to get

582
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 1: with who was his friend's wife. Like that's that's just

583
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: the way that music works. But like something like this,

584
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: you're putting a specific person on blast and targeting them

585
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: even if that's not your goal. You know what crazy

586
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 1: people on the internet do. Like it's kind of a

587
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:31,960
Speaker 1: messed up thing, Like it it would be one thing.

588
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 1: If this was like someone on her level of fame,

589
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: then I guess it would just be like one more

590
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 1: beef between two famous people. But you're like bringing a

591
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 1: mob down on a guy I think with a fan

592
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: based So it's gonna happen either way, because like they're

593
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 1: so dedicated. So if it's like, well, we're arian always right,

594
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: you know, are they where do they rank on the

595
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 1: like Beehive being like it, don't get me involved in that.

596
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: I don't want them coming from me being the most

597
00:33:55,880 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: dedicated and talented fan. I think Hive is probably the

598
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: most scary organized. But up there, she's got I mean,

599
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 1: she's got fans, and I mean that there's a testament

600
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 1: to their fanaticism when people like Pete Davidson are like,

601
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 1: man like, it's really sucked going through this breakup public. Yeah,

602
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 1: I mean, he's just gone through a really public breakup

603
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 1: with someone he thought he was going to marry who's

604
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 1: like more famous than him. And also this is on

605
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:30,280
Speaker 1: the heels of a very public battle with mental illness

606
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 1: and he's also in recovery. It's just like a really,

607
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 1: I don't know, really uniquely shitty position that she's putting

608
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 1: pretty rough to drop this song when he's in recovery

609
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: to you know, this is what happens when, you know,

610
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,799
Speaker 1: celebrities get with each other and their petty young people too.

611
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: So and I'm sure he'll be fine. But yeah, yeah,

612
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 1: well that's what he said to He was like, you know,

613
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: I'll be fine. He's like, but I just felt like

614
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: people needed to know that this is like the most

615
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 1: fun ship for me. Yeah. The incident that finally made

616
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 1: him to ask people to stop was a waiter put

617
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 1: the song on in the restaurant he was eating in

618
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 1: and then started filming him. Oh so they did that

619
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 1: for the Graham. It wasn't even a Quinn like he

620
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:17,719
Speaker 1: was set up. Gross. That's really gross. The internet what

621
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: it does. Man, just didn't get that viral tweet basically, right. See, Okay,

622
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: so like in terms of laws that we do need

623
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 1: that I would support, there should be a government bureau

624
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: that's just a couple of guys, guys and ladies who

625
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 1: walk around when someone does something like that for the Graham, right,

626
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: it's really shitty. Just hit him once right in the jaw,

627
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,280
Speaker 1: not not enough to do serious damage, not the permanent

628
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: just like a person bring the box up and says,

629
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 1: you know such and such you did boom and then

630
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: you're done. Maybe you graham it, maybe you grant it too.

631
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 1: Maybe there's a government, Graham, and you monetize it to

632
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 1: pay for healthcare? And what is your meeting with the

633
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 1: Department of Justice? Again, my screams have not been returned.

634
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 1: So let's talk about the president's hotels. Yeah, because apparently

635
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: they are very popular with tourists from a specific nation. Yes,

636
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:12,879
Speaker 1: which one I was going to? Yeah? Interesting? Well, yeah,

637
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 1: I mean I think we all know money is the

638
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 1: key to this man's clogged heart. Uh so, yeah, the

639
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: Saudia is I think realize this how one dimensional he

640
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,240
Speaker 1: is like like trying to get basically putting a arms

641
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 1: deal on the table to sort of leverage that for

642
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: other things. But Mohammed been Salon has been really helping

643
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 1: out the ailing Trump Hotel in New York City. Apparently,

644
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: like after two years of decline at the Manhattan Hotel,

645
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: the Trump International revenue from room rentals went up in

646
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 1: the first three months. Huh what caused that? A last

647
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 1: minute visit to New York by the Crown Prince of

648
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia. Yeah, but of course, Mohammed been Salmon will

649
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 1: not be caught dead at a Trump hotel. That's where

650
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 1: all his like underlings entreage stayed. Oh yeah, come on

651
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 1: now yeah, I mean, well, I haven't been money. Won't

652
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 1: even stay there if they didn't just rent it out

653
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,279
Speaker 1: to give him money. Yeah, MBS actually has money. So

654
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: he's like, you can always tell the people, the few

655
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: people that Trump will say nice things about other people.

656
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 1: He's jealous of the people he wants to have their

657
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: life live, Like he couldn't bring himself to say a

658
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 1: negative thing about it because he's jealous of him, because

659
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 1: he wants to be him. Right, He's like, well, maybe

660
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 1: he'll let me in my club, but we can touch

661
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: that globe again. I want to be give me in

662
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: on that high five man his hungry eyes when he

663
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 1: stop pooting an MPs. Oh yeah, just he's looking at

664
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 1: that being like dream we it's I so much way.

665
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: I wish one world leader had done that thing on

666
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 1: Instagram where it zooms in and flame shootout everywhere while

667
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: it was happening right there, Come on, Merkel, just throw

668
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 1: up a dramatic super zoom. I don't know if I

669
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,240
Speaker 1: don't know if I'm one of your v I P friends,

670
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 1: but I follow the story. Yeah, get your you know,

671
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 1: get your story games up. But also uh NBS has

672
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 1: also been will not him directly, but the Saudi lobbying

673
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 1: arm has been also very very nice to the d

674
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 1: C Hotel, the Trump d C Hotel also, So like

675
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 1: all coincidences everywhere. Yeah, within a month of Trump selection,

676
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: the lobbyists who represent the Saudis, they paid for what

677
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:19,240
Speaker 1: they estimated around five hundred knights in just three months

678
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: at that hotel, booked it for five Maybe they're making

679
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 1: a sequel to that Joseph Gordon Levitt Zoey Deschanelle movie

680
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:31,399
Speaker 1: of Winter Nights of Screams. Uh well yeah, but the

681
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 1: wild thing was the reason though, is even more absurd.

682
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,399
Speaker 1: So what they did was it was part of a

683
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:40,760
Speaker 1: quote unquote lobbying effort where they were offering US military

684
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 1: veterans like all expense paid trip to Washington, d C

685
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:49,920
Speaker 1: so they would lobby against a law that the Saudi's opposed. Um,

686
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 1: so the Saudis were paying for US military veterans to

687
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,800
Speaker 1: come to d C. And then the US military veterans

688
00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: were just suddenly having in their best interests well The

689
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,959
Speaker 1: thing is they didn't know that the Sautage are paying

690
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 1: for it. So like what happened was they found a

691
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 1: few veterans to like organize other ones and just be like, hey,

692
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 1: we should come by. We're gonna just one of the

693
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: emails said quotes storm the Hill, uh to talk about

694
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 1: this law to keep soldiers safe. You know what that

695
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 1: law was. It was the law that allows victims and

696
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: families of victims of terrorism to sue countries that sponsor terrorism. God,

697
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 1: who's God? I mean it looks look at the nine

698
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 1: eleven hijackers board here, Yeah fifteen so yeah, fifteen out

699
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 1: of the nineteen hijackers were Saudia's So I think that

700
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,359
Speaker 1: is the big reason that they want to do not

701
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,920
Speaker 1: want that. Well, the crazy thing, I think it's just

702
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: a bunch of coincidences. It's just I don't see the

703
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,360
Speaker 1: law where the line is drawn. Yeah, like, well what

704
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: I mean, what are they gonna do? But it's like

705
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:49,360
Speaker 1: if you put up a bolton board, you know how

706
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 1: there's all those conspiracy theory board years would be three

707
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 1: photos with one piece of string going straight across the

708
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 1: three photos. Like, I don't know, I think I might

709
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 1: have solved it. There's no way it's to there's no

710
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 1: they're hiding in plain site and in plain site. Well, well,

711
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 1: the the whole thing too is they were going with

712
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 1: the most tired talking points, Like they'd go to Chuck

713
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 1: Grassley's office and like Chuck Grassley is like AIDS were like,

714
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,719
Speaker 1: this hasn't even like we haven't publicly discussed this yet,

715
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:17,920
Speaker 1: but okay, and they're like, yeah, we just feel like

716
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,239
Speaker 1: it's going to put the soldiers at risk. And then

717
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 1: like other people on the hill began to be like,

718
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 1: are you the guys that were bribed to come in here?

719
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 1: Like it was it was such a farce to like

720
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 1: the actual politicians they were living that so transparent, and yeah,

721
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,800
Speaker 1: the irony was most of them didn't know that that's

722
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 1: who was at the you know, paying cutting the checks

723
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,919
Speaker 1: for their little trip, which is two middle men and white.

724
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 1: So they just think they're getting traded. Well, can you

725
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 1: imagine it's like your country sponsors the people who kick

726
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: off the thing that give you the pretext for this

727
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:50,360
Speaker 1: massive war that takes millions of lives. And yeah, and

728
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 1: then these are people who like probably presumably fought in

729
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 1: those wars to come back and then are now lobbying

730
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,400
Speaker 1: on behalf of It's such a mind fuck. He's Trump

731
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: is the best for veterans. I was reading about it

732
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,279
Speaker 1: on his Twitter. Yeah, he just gets them, you know,

733
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 1: he gets the sacrifice and the willingness to just give

734
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:12,000
Speaker 1: up your life. Although last week he did tweet something

735
00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 1: He's like, why are we paying so much in defense? Right? Like,

736
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: it's like what that was like one of the things

737
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: you were petting yourself on the there's not money for

738
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: school lunches because you wanted to do that, right, And

739
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 1: then suddenly like whoa, whoa, whoa. I didn't Okay, I

740
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know where I am day today.

741
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,760
Speaker 1: So all right, we're going to take another quick break.

742
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:44,040
Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back and miles. Scientists

743
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 1: are working on a way to determine what the most

744
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 1: influential film director and actors are and their methodology is

745
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 1: it confused the hell out of me, but their results

746
00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:00,239
Speaker 1: seem pretty spot on. Yeah, because they're using rather then

747
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 1: like box office numbers and reviews, which are too subjective,

748
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,320
Speaker 1: they're trying to use complex networks, so like, really you

749
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 1: analyzing the data and using a film as a node

750
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 1: and any connections to other films sort of increases it's

751
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 1: like value to I guess film in general. So like

752
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,279
Speaker 1: as an influence on other films is yeah, exactly, or

753
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 1: if it's referenced so as these So it's a group

754
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 1: of Italian scientists. Uh, and they're using like a similar

755
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 1: methodology that they used to sort of like track the

756
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,680
Speaker 1: impact of like like scientific studies. So they're just applying

757
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: this now to films, and so as they say, they say,

758
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 1: we propose an alternative method to box office takings and

759
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: reviews for analyzing the success of a film. We have

760
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: developed an algorithm that uses references between movies as a

761
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 1: measure for success, and which can also be used to

762
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 1: evaluate the career of directors, actors, and actresses by considering

763
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 1: their participation in top scoring movies. Okay, so based on that,

764
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,359
Speaker 1: that's actually also how Google works, right, That is they

765
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 1: they were like basically just trying to classify different academic

766
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:05,479
Speaker 1: papers on a algorithmic network as a graduate project and

767
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 1: eventually invented Google. Right. Well, that so much savior in

768
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:14,000
Speaker 1: origin story than Facebook, I know, right, just Mark Zuckerberg

769
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,759
Speaker 1: was creeping on ladies in his class. So when you

770
00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 1: look at it. First of all, none of these when

771
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:21,920
Speaker 1: they when they go to the top twenty films, none

772
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,320
Speaker 1: of the films were released before or after ninety seven,

773
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,759
Speaker 1: which and they and they even acknowledge the bias that

774
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,239
Speaker 1: a it's biased towards Western films because they're using a

775
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,839
Speaker 1: lot of the data that they got from IMDb, uh

776
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,439
Speaker 1: and so, and also that it's definitely more male biased, uh.

777
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: And that it also there's a bias towards older films

778
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 1: because they've been around longer and henceforth can have more

779
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,839
Speaker 1: influence on the movies we see now. So it's really

780
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 1: a better tale of like which movies from the sixties

781
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 1: and seventies were most Yeah, I mean all the way

782
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 1: back still me yeah, yeah, yeah. When I think, yeah,

783
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:55,800
Speaker 1: if you look at I mean, I think if you

784
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:57,759
Speaker 1: want to have box office and like with inflation, I

785
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 1: think Gone with the Wind would be the top over top,

786
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: But it doesn't even it's not in the top ten.

787
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 1: So the top ten from number one to ten is

788
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:10,080
Speaker 1: Wizard of Oz, Star Wars Episode four, Psycho, King Kong

789
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 1: two thousand one, Metropolis, Citizen Kane, Birth of a Nation, Frankenstein,

790
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:18,959
Speaker 1: and Snow Quite that actually makes sense Yeah, yeah, because

791
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 1: those are all like you've seen those quoted so frequently

792
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,800
Speaker 1: throughout your life, whether it's in a you know, Looney

793
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: Tunes cartoon or in another film, right that it's just

794
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 1: become like a part of the filmic language. It's their

795
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 1: cultural wallpaper. And so yeah, when they did the same

796
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:43,640
Speaker 1: process through directors, they found that like the most influencial

797
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,920
Speaker 1: director was that who's the guy who directed Gone with

798
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 1: the Wind, George Kukor or something, uh, and then Victor

799
00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:52,359
Speaker 1: Fleming and Alfred Hitchcock. And then so they're saying, like, oh, well,

800
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 1: if kuk and Fleming they probably got there because it

801
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 1: Gone with the Wind, and then other people that were

802
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,120
Speaker 1: credited for like with The Wizard of Like. So they

803
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 1: basically were like, hold on, we gotta figure this out

804
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,279
Speaker 1: because this isn't quite the best way to do it

805
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 1: for directors. So then they created a different metric for

806
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 1: directors and actors, which is a little more interesting. So

807
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 1: they did more of a what they call a metal

808
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 1: ranking system like the Olympics. So you get a gold

809
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: point for each film that reached the top five percent

810
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 1: of influence in the year it was released, a silver

811
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:20,279
Speaker 1: for it was the five to ten percent and a

812
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:24,359
Speaker 1: bronze if it was in the ten ranking. So with

813
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,760
Speaker 1: that in mind, the top three directors in order. Number

814
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: one goes to Hitchcock, Spielberg, then Brian de Palma, Yeah,

815
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,480
Speaker 1: which I mean, I guess he has like the kind

816
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 1: of like movies that people have the posters up in

817
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:40,880
Speaker 1: their in their rooms, right, Scarface and The Untouchable despite

818
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,680
Speaker 1: being like it was a hit movie and it wasn't

819
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 1: like that well recarried by critics. But uh, you know

820
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 1: that quote from Battleship Tempkin of the baby carriage going

821
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: down the stairs at the train station has been in

822
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 1: just everything. Oh, the naked Gun one is my favorite, right,

823
00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,440
Speaker 1: the naked gun one is great, but everybody referee the

824
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 1: most racist one. They had the fucking gardener chasing after

825
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,400
Speaker 1: his lawnmower going down this year was like that didn't

826
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,440
Speaker 1: age well. I mean, he also directed Snake Eyes with

827
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 1: Nicholas Cage. I'm sure that had. I think that's probably there. Um.

828
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: And then when you go to actors, it goes Samuel L. Jackson,

829
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,800
Speaker 1: Clint Eastwood, Tom Cruise, Okay, because you know, Samuel Jackson

830
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 1: is like one of the like if you count the movies.

831
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 1: He's like the highest grossing actor of all time when

832
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 1: you look at the film he's been really smart about.

833
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 1: He was in three Star Wars movies You're from And

834
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: then when you go to actresses Lois Maxwell who played

835
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:37,479
Speaker 1: Money Penny in early James Bond films, Carrie Fisher and

836
00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: Maureen O'Sullivan that all wait, which one was Marino Sullivan?

837
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 1: And I don't know, Yeah, Carrie Fisher makes sense what

838
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:49,080
Speaker 1: with the Star Wars of it all and uh Blues

839
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 1: brothers Marino Sullivan from Hannah and her Sisters or Tarzan Okay,

840
00:46:57,160 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 1: I guess so films. I'm like, I'm horribly ignorant when

841
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 1: it comes to work. So I'm sure someone will let

842
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:07,359
Speaker 1: us know why she would be up there. Nicolas Cage

843
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 1: do Nicolas Cage. I don't have the full list, but

844
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure he'd probably be just in the top. I

845
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 1: don't know. Actually i'd be surprised if he wasn't in

846
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 1: the top like thirty, because he's also not He's in

847
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 1: films that do on the box office, but not necessarily

848
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:24,560
Speaker 1: ones that like are good, you know what I mean,

849
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 1: Like The Rock, you know, like it's like okay or

850
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 1: like gone in sixties seconds or National Treasure or ship

851
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:33,359
Speaker 1: like that, talking the rock here because oh I did

852
00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:35,160
Speaker 1: a Bechdel cast on it. I mean, I mean, look,

853
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 1: the rock is what it is, you know what. It

854
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,280
Speaker 1: technically passed and we had to change the rules because

855
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,440
Speaker 1: it was like the one time two women talked about

856
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,240
Speaker 1: each other. It was in reference to whether or not Jade,

857
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 1: Sean Connery's daughter felt safe talking to him when they

858
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,880
Speaker 1: met up at that park. So it was technically a

859
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 1: conversation that was had to do with a man. So

860
00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,200
Speaker 1: even though it was like, hey, are you okay, I

861
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:01,239
Speaker 1: was like, I think it passed, and we had a

862
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,359
Speaker 1: hard time being like, yeah, we can't let this thing past.

863
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:07,840
Speaker 1: I think it's a one of best seminal feminist works

864
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 1: of their time. All right, that's gonna do it for

865
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:15,840
Speaker 1: this week's weekly Zeite. Guys, please like and review the show.
