I 47 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: took the back off of this watch yesterday, and I 48 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: cleaned the spring and then I took the spring out 49 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: and cleaned under it, brought it back and now it works. 50 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: What are you like, No, this is the first time 51 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 1: I ever had to Google hot open it, So you 52 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: just did some old I was like, worst case scenario, 53 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't work, still right, and but now it works. 54 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: It has to. I had to wind it for so 55 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: long to change the day because it was on the 56 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: ninth and I had to go all the way around.

I used to know. 59 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: I don't have the value of life that they might have. Well, 60 00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: I think maybe a surgeon might have to have have 61 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: disregard for life. Yeah, they don't get too much pressure 62 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 1: on the line. You too much pressure, but no, I 63 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: had to fix the computers at the Apple store and 64 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: good with tiny screens, no wonder. Okay, I wouldn't sure 65 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 1: if you had like a methoddiction, You're like, you'd like 66 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: to bust it open and see how it works. People 67 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: like break it open and then replace the springs with 68 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 1: like celery, Now it really doesn't work. Do you know 69 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 1: how old that watch? Again? I'm sorry, I do know. 70 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: It's from nineteen sixty seven. Okay, I looked it up 71 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,959 Speaker 1: because it says it says the band is definitely different 72 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: and looks like it has a little when you're saying yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 73 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: you could tell by the tread on the tires, And 74 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: then I just googled a little words on there and 75 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: saw the watch. Well, guys, if you need a watch repairment, yeah, 76 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: I can definitely refer you to help stand up comic 77 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: watch repairment. It's in the other order. If you're talking 78 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: about recent successes, just do a whole set on watching there. 79 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: All right, man, we're gonna get to know you a 80 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: little bit better in a moment, But first we're gonna 81 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: tell our listeners what we're gonna be talking about today. 82 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about Trump blaming Mueller for his low 83 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: approval ratings. So it turns out he was aware of 84 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: his low approval ratings all this time. He still gave 85 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: himself an A plus plus plus. Uh. We're gonna talk 86 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: about his rumored pick for his new attorney general, which 87 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: is probably the most shocking pick he could have had, 88 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: because it's like straight down the middle. It's not Judge 89 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: Judy or anyone judge to come on, don't bring Judge 90 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: Judy into this. Right, We're gonna talk about American individualism. Uh. 91 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: And uh, just a weird theory that we were talking 92 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: about earlier and Tucker Carlson all of that and the 93 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: Golden Globe nominees on Today's Daily Zach Kyle, First, what 94 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: is something from your search history that's revealing about who 95 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: you are? Um? So this is the what I searched yesterday? 96 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: Is uh? Is Mr Robot over slash coming back? There 97 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 1: you go, and what do you find? I guess it's over? 98 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: Oh it's over. M he's what was it's coming? No one, 99 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: there's no announced anything. I don't know. I don't know. 100 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: I didn't find enough. I wasn't sure if I had 101 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: seen it. I think I watched all of it, or 102 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: maybe I'm on season one. I'm not sure. I don't know. 103 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: I don't know what's happening in it. And I tried 104 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: to find out where I had left off, and there's 105 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: no way to differentiate between any of the episodes. But 106 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 1: I had the hardest time. I realized I had just 107 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: finished the second season like last year or something, and 108 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: before when we were flying back from Chicago, I was 109 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: download and stuff like, oh right, the new Mr Robot, 110 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: and I was having so much trouble, remember, like I 111 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: really don't know where I'm at in this, like f 112 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: Society is it? Yeah, I'm here. I watched Homecoming and 113 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: then saw that the guy who made Homecoming had directed 114 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: all over Yeah, yeah, it was the same. And then 115 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: I just couldn't really figure out where I had left 116 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: off with Mr Robot. And then I don't still not 117 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: sure if it's over forever or not. And how many 118 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: seasons of Mr Robot have there been? Maybe four? And 119 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: was the third one good? I haven't seen it yet. Okay, 120 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't even I couldn't even begin 121 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: to tell you where I quit watching Homecoming? Is getting 122 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: raves to call them in this town Raves and uh 123 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: brought their glow sticks out Golden Globe Conversation. Everyone in 124 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: the show is named Molly. Right right, there you go. 125 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: What is something that you think is overrated? Overrated? I 126 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: so I had to write Aline down because I'm not 127 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: good at I don't know, I think, and this is 128 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: a recent turn for me. I think it is overrated 129 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,679 Speaker 1: to hate on astrology. I don't know if I believe 130 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: in astrology. I don't think I do, but I think 131 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: it's kind of exhaust It's just like, what do you 132 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: just yeah, sure, you don't leave it, just leave it alone. 133 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: And also I wear the same shirt every week to 134 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: watch the Chiefs play football, so I can't really be like, oh, 135 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: you believe the stars influence you. No, No, my shirt 136 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: influences young men. And every time I wash it, the 137 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: football will move in another DI got mad for not 138 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: wearing the shirt in the Chiefs law. That was my 139 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: first thought with the Chiefs. I wore the wrong shirt, 140 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: which isn't But then I also will be like, oh, 141 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: you can't believe in astrology. You don't control that, right, 142 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: But also I can I control sports? Well, what's your sign? 143 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: I am a Gemini? You're a Gemini. People like to 144 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: make that sound. If you have any sign, people say that, yeah, exactly. 145 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: Oh you were born in the same sort of Gregorian Well, 146 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: I want to tell you, Susan Miller has two big 147 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: surprises for you, and she's bursting to tell you about both. 148 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: You can tell you about the first surprise, but the 149 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: second one you have to wait another ten days. I 150 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: don't even know if that's a hook to start paying 151 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: I'm having fun using captivated photos of my people. Anyway, 152 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: I guess it just says you will be This will 153 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: be an extraordinary month for you, Kyle, perhaps the most 154 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: memorable of the year. Jupiter has now set up shop 155 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: in your seventh house of marriage and partnership, making Gemini 156 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: the sign most likely to marry in twenty nineteen or 157 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: to gain from business based collaborations in the coming year. 158 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: Like that, Yeah, yeah, I like it. You will either 159 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: get married or yeah. Yeah, yeah. It's kind of the 160 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: way you have to make a decision to be Yeah. Basically, 161 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: the point though about sports is I absolutely am a 162 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: skeptic when it comes to astrology and most religious things. 163 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: But the second I start watching sports that I care about, 164 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, So when I'm not watching, they do better, 165 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: so I can't watch, even though that defeats the whole 166 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: purpose of being a fan of sports. Superstition is a 167 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: hybrid of religion and astrology. It's just like that on 168 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: a very like focused down level. It's like, yeah, you 169 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: want to know why religion exists. I'm surprised nobody has 170 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: exploited that mental weakness yet, right, like to be like 171 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: the scientologist of like sports fans, you've devised like us. 172 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: Whatever Philip Rivers does after he retires will be something 173 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: along those lines. He already has a big enough family 174 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: to all sign in. Right. But I mean, the reason 175 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: that I think it comes up in sports so much, 176 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: and the reason that it hasn't been exploited is because 177 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: it can't really be exploited. It's you literally never know 178 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: what's going to happen next. It can't be really controlled. 179 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: You mean, like life, well, but specifically sports is like 180 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: a very hyper focus. I agree with you, but yes, 181 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: but yes, but no, uh no, that was that was 182 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: good but wrong. Yeah, it was a good attempt. What 183 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: is something you think is underrated? Underrated? Underrated? Uh? Okay, 184 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 1: this one is very dumb. I think it's underrated to 185 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,599 Speaker 1: have a cool name for your fans. Okay. I was 186 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: doing some shows in Denver a couple of weeks ago 187 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: and there was a comedian there kept calling himself a deadhead. 188 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: He's the grateful dead That's so cool. Yeah, I think 189 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: bands you should have to make your band name to 190 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: where your fans can have a cool name if they 191 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: like you. Yeah, because my this is my initial reaction 192 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 1: was like he was like I was talking to like, 193 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 1: none of the bands I like, all like sad indie 194 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: bands have cool fan names, and so I was like, 195 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 1: I like the national It's like, well, you can't have 196 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: a you can't think I'm a nationalist. That's my fan name. 197 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: It's going to get the wrong followers. Um, so I 198 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: need like Deadheads is such a cool name, and they're 199 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: actually an equivalent nash Er that sounds like you're into 200 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: uh yeah, like up and coming country music. Yeah yeah potatoes. 201 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: No it sucks right, Nash Bridges, someone who still follows 202 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: I haven't got the last VHS yet, but once I 203 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: get it, yeah yeah, once you get that thing working, 204 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: But did you put it back together at your VCR 205 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: just forgot that word. I probably I tinkered a VCR 206 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: to work once in college, just I wanted to watch 207 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: some you know, be cool and watch a movie on 208 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 1: a VCR is not worth it. I could have downloaded 209 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: why better quality resolution exactly one twenty. Yeah, a noman, 210 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: but I think everyone should have to have a noman. 211 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: Was that Nationalman? Oh yeah, I think that's someone who 212 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: avoids marriages. Yeah right, I'm terrible at this, but I 213 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: think that their name in particular sucks at that. Well 214 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: we looked out was that gang? So it's everything needs 215 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 1: to have a fan base. Yeah, you got to have 216 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: an identity. I wanted to be death Cab for cute boys, 217 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: but it sounded like the anti Proud Boy, which is fine, 218 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: but you know then the music might fall to the 219 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: wayside for political gain. Right. Uh? What about your fans? 220 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: What do you want to call him? I just hope 221 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: want to call them, text them, email them, it doesn't matter. 222 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: Some sort of engagement situation. I don't know. Air's heads 223 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: is all right? It sounds like that movie. That movie 224 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 1: is fucking fantastic. And the candy and the Candy I 225 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: love my friends have a mystery white mouth? Right maybe not? Uh? 226 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: And finally, what is a myth what's something people think 227 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: it's true, you know, to be false. I think that 228 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: a myth that some people believe is true is that 229 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: driving for Lift or Uber is a decent profession. I 230 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: did it for a little while. It's not a good 231 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: way to make any money. Yeah, I hope you guys. 232 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: Show isn't like sponsored by lift or something. No, they 233 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: we've been waiting, but they keep circling the block. And 234 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 1: I did it for a little while, and people would 235 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: always be like, oh, here, that's great. I hear, it's 236 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: pretty cool. I did it. I have no I don't 237 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: have a vehicle here, and they would like rent you 238 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: a vehicles and yeah, I was walking around. I was like, hey, 239 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: you guys want to getting somewhere, and and it would 240 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: just be very very difficult. It would start off great, 241 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: and they incentivized early on driving. And so that's why 242 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: it's like friends I knew who told me it could 243 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 1: be good, were like a month in there, like you 244 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: right do with this month that pays pretty good. And 245 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 1: for like two weeks, you know, it was like it 246 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 1: was decent enough and it was nice and it was 247 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: my own hour. All the stuff you here would be good. 248 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: But then there's a huge drop off. And I can't 249 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 1: imagine if it was actually my personal car, with the 250 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: toll that happens in the car, the cost of gas, 251 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: the upkeep for the vehicle you're looking you know, minimum 252 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: wage with hard, weird hours and so this the amount 253 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: of people who I did it for maybe three weeks, 254 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: and the people who were like, oh, here, that's great, 255 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,199 Speaker 1: you can get pretty good from that. And plus they're 256 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: so their pr stuff is so like in your face 257 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: over and over and over again, and it is just 258 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: and and maybe people are listening who it's a I 259 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: get it being a decent secondary or necessary, but I 260 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,079 Speaker 1: don't think it could actually it doesn't seem to be 261 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: feasible profession especially with gas. Yeah, I think what what 262 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,719 Speaker 1: state actually just guaranteed like certain wages that New York 263 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: City yeah, for uber driver New York City. Yeah, Because 264 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: I think that's one of the biggest holes in it. 265 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: Is like with the gig economy, is like there are 266 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: so many other expenses that go along with that. Yah. 267 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: That's why even I mean, even like we do with 268 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: comedy and stuff, people be like, oh my god, you 269 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: got that for a week, and it's like, yeah, but 270 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,079 Speaker 1: I had to get there. I had to do this. 271 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: I eat every day, you know what I mean, there's 272 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: every little costing around. I had to get to the 273 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: to and from the airport. Like that's just that's a 274 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,079 Speaker 1: do you know it? All that it is? I think 275 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: lift and and and uber are just such a quintessential 276 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: example of the flaws of gig economy. Yeah, I had 277 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: no idea they did the like pay you more during 278 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 1: the first well and I even a friend referred me 279 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,559 Speaker 1: and he got a dollar for each ride I did 280 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: and would just split that with me, And that starts 281 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 1: to add up a little bit, but it's still, you know, 282 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 1: all these little things to make you feel like you're 283 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: doing good until you've put off being able to do 284 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: anything else and you're doing this, and then you're still 285 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 1: and then they they want you to drive bizarre hours, 286 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: never accumulating, like never successive hours, just like two now 287 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: and then four later, and then it's a bizarre Hm. Well, 288 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: I think, I mean that's the next step is like 289 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: for those jobs to actually be worthwhile. I was like, 290 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: we have to get them unionized at something and have 291 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,479 Speaker 1: some kind of standard practice for how they're everyone is compensated. 292 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: A lot of the drivers that I met in my class. 293 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: We're switching from Uber to Lift. I only drove for 294 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: Lift because it was even worse they were talking about 295 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: when they started. There was like forty now or doing 296 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: it and they're like, this is good because the upkeep 297 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: on my car. I basically been paying twice the upkeep 298 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: per year for a car and its lifespan is half 299 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: because no one drives UM. But then it just they 300 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: just cut it a little bit every month, in a 301 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: little bit every month, blah blah blah blah blah. And 302 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: they be like, bizarre incentives you can't make if you 303 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: do a hundred and twelve rides this week, And it's like, well, 304 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: one ride could be an hour. Yeah, so I'm probably 305 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: not gonna work a hundred and fifty hours this week. 306 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: And I mean this goes back to just things we've 307 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: talked about on this show, but it's very like it 308 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: goes back to you know, regulations and ship like that. 309 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: Like they the way that they chose to look at 310 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:28,119 Speaker 1: Uber and Lift is they are companies that provide software 311 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: essentially and you can use it in your car. For 312 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: the main employer that they technically have to get the 313 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: government to recognize them as non employers, but as like 314 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: providers of a software I think is at least how 315 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 1: they were getting around it in the first place. So yeah, 316 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: if they're looked at as an employer, now income the 317 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: regular scions exactly, and then they won't make Infinity money 318 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: immediately off the backs of labor exactly. Um, alright, burn 319 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: it down. Yeah, Honestly, it sounds like I'm have described 320 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: the season of Mr Robot I think I'm going through. 321 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: So this this all sounds specific. I did drive around 322 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: in a guy Fox mask part of your lift drivers 323 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: and the uber drivers. One out of sixty people tip. Yeah, dude, 324 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: you got a tip man, motherfucker's And that's the only 325 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: money that I think a lot of it too. I mean, 326 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: at the I get how some people look if it's 327 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: a cheaper option, then you're like, I don't know, if 328 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: you know, you don't want to add whatever to the cost. 329 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: But if you ever worked off tips, like you know, 330 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: like I think most of us having here, you know 331 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: the value of the tip to the person who's receiving, 332 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: and you're like, yeah, I'm not going to fuck you 333 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: for this specifically for like Los Angeles. But here's how 334 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: a very broad strokes breakdown off how works. So if 335 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: I was driving someone from Hollywood to L a X Airport, 336 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: that ride probably cost him about thirty five dollars right 337 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: from from around from around Hollywood to l a X 338 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: about thirty five dollars. I would probably make seventeen of that, 339 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: and then that would be taxed down to maybe around twelve, 340 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: and then the drive would probably take an hour in 341 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes and then and every cost, you know, the 342 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: gas is probably a dollar fifty, So you're looking at 343 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 1: about I wouldn't make nine to ten dollars an hour 344 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 1: doing doing stuff like that. Hit that tip though, but 345 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 1: if you hit it, if you and even if it's 346 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: fifty cents, if people getting fifty cents, it's nice. The 347 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: other fun way that this service has affected people is 348 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 1: the drivers who already existed in these towns and not 349 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 1: the like taxi cab companies were like the most up 350 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: and up, well run institutions, but a lot of people 351 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: who had invested money in like a taxi cab in 352 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 1: New York City. Oh, I know, a taxi cab medallion 353 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: is like a quarter of a million dollars and you're 354 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: paying it off over your whole life. Yeah, it's they 355 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: I've almost got funcked twice and having to have pay 356 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: for the medallion and then having it become irrelevant, and 357 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,479 Speaker 1: there was a long New York Times series. I think 358 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: about these taxi drivers who like a lot of them 359 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 1: were killing who got in and realized, Yeah, then Uber 360 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: came in there, like what I mean, you'd be splitting 361 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: a cab with three or four other drivers, and yeah, 362 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: I mean think about like I'm sure that at least 363 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: has something to do with why we're actually getting regulation 364 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: in New York City is there's like a little bit 365 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: more visibility and they have some of the best journalists 366 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: in the world in that city reporting on the local news. 367 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 1: So meanwhile, poor l A just has us. So sorry 368 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: l A. Yeah, I hope I can break the story 369 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: if some people you have never heard of Lift or 370 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: Uber right sharing exactly because when people come to us 371 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:30,479 Speaker 1: ride please, you know it's actually the worst branded. Yeah. 372 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: I didn't mean to harp on them so much because 373 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:34,959 Speaker 1: also I don't have a car here, so I take 374 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: them everywhere I absolutely go. But I think that it 375 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: just is nice to have some awareness about how much 376 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: a little bit of a tip can go because that's 377 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: the only thing where it will go to employee. So 378 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: if you like to help employees more than companies, exactly. 379 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be 380 00:18:49,800 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 1: right back, and we're back, and a couple of quick 381 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: Trump points up top. He is claiming that Mueller is 382 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: to blame for his low approval ratings. That makes sense, Yeah, 383 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: because he's because Muller is making him look bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 384 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: is that what the yeah man claims that awareness of 385 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: how he's doing is reason people think he's not doing well. Yeah. 386 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 1: He refers to it as presidential harassment. Actually, his tweet 387 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: was it's called presidential harassment exclamation point, as though that 388 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: were a pre existing concept before he like did he 389 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: capitalize pH Like yeah, you know he did. Yeah, it's 390 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 1: a proper nown that I just invented. Well, what is 391 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: his wait, what's his full tweet? Exactly, my approval rating 392 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 1: would be sent rather than the fifty percent just reported 393 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 1: by ras Mussen, which is also way too high, it's 394 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: called presidential harassment. Yeah, okay, well, you know that's fine. 395 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: I gotta give rest mus gonna shout out for always 396 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: being Rasputin when I say it in my head and 397 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: still just trooping through. Yeah, I think I've called it 398 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 1: Resputin in my head every time I've ever read it. Yeah, 399 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 1: rass ross Putin. I think sounds like a roster version 400 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: of Vladimir Putin. Ye, Rasputin's yeah, Ross coming through. Yeah, dreadlocks. 401 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: He would be way more chilled, shirtless on that horse 402 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: with some nice, weird blonde dreads than dreads. Um. Well, 403 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: you know again, I think with this whole this whole 404 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: Trump nonsense, it's it's funny too, Like the the whole 405 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,919 Speaker 1: presidential harassment thing is just the brand of the GOP 406 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: right now, just find unique ways to make yourself a victim. 407 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: So in this case, we're calling oversight presidential harassment. Yeah cool, okay, 408 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: well yeah, it's it's a shame what laws will duty you, 409 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, it's the get Yeah, it's 410 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 1: it's just it is very bizarre. It's also the ultimate 411 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: move of accused your opponent of being what you are. 412 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: The entire time we were talking about that. Yeah, just 413 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: I want to be played liberals of victims. Liberals of 414 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: victims are the victims. And then immediately it's this is 415 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 1: presidential harassment because he's seeing what I've done and telling 416 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: people about and telling people and he's not even really 417 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: telling us. He's releasing a thousand pages and letting us 418 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: read to read to find out. That's how bad it is. 419 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: He usually doesn't even I don't think he's ever even 420 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: acknowledged his bad approval ratings before. Right now I know 421 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 1: he does. It's like, that's fake news, because this is 422 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: what it really is. That's the shocking thing is that 423 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: this suggests that he has been aware all along of 424 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: what a shitty job he's doing, or or doesn't know 425 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: how numbers know that he's such a baby that motherfucker's 426 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: have to keep poles away from him sometimes because he's 427 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: in his Fox News bubble and he's like, what are 428 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 1: you guys leaving it over there? Oh? Nothing, nothing away? No, 429 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: I want to see it. No, No, it's fine. But 430 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: what is this? No? That is what the like? You 431 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 1: know what I mean? There's reporting from inside the White 432 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: House that they specifically curate his media diet on a 433 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: day basis to just Things's curate at least one of 434 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: his diets, right, if it's just the media one, that's okay. 435 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: There's no fish fil a news that's going to get 436 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 1: across his plate because early on in his presidency he 437 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:16,719 Speaker 1: was getting furious because he was watching CNN. So they realized, 438 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: if if the TV stays on Fox, we have easier days. 439 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: I will always think everything is just an equivalent of 440 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: the no, there were more people at my inauguration. Yeah, 441 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: everything is just a blown up or a scale down 442 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: version of here's a photo of people and him saying, no, 443 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 1: it isn't there are more people than in this picture. 444 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 1: He would have been the great uniter if that hadn't. 445 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: I think, you know, if exactly I was. That was 446 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: just such a strong, like first public statement from the 447 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: administration was just what's his name? Dug In? If you 448 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 1: asked me how long ago that was, I would say 449 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: forty years, two thousand seventeen. I would say four scores. Yeah, 450 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: he was just again and like period, it was the 451 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,959 Speaker 1: biggest stop. I mean, every single thing that happens make 452 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: it seems I mean, when we were talking about how 453 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: it seemed like a year, but I was here in April, 454 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 1: but it seems so everything is so tiring, and time 455 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: seems to be so slow, and months I have no 456 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: idea when news stories happen relative to other news stories 457 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: or what is important because things disappear so fast that 458 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 1: show because it's been like it ever happened. It's like 459 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: I've been a slow zoom out. Yeah, like we've been 460 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: seeing the same things and then we're now just seeing 461 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: how more and more they're intertwined and connected and just 462 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: how bad something actually is. And you're also like getting 463 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: a new perspective on things like as they operated when 464 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: things were working, Like now, no matter what, I will 465 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 1: have less respect for the White House Press briefing because 466 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: of just what a complete fucking satirical mockery they've made 467 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: of the White House Press briefing, Like yeah, funk that 468 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: like something, Yeah, I think sometimes about you remember when 469 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: days would go by and you didn't wonder or know 470 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 1: what the president for like three days always in France, 471 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: good for him, like days like two or three days, 472 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: Like if if you didn't pay attention to politics, it 473 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,959 Speaker 1: was like having like a child that was well behaved 474 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: that you didn't have to monitor all the time because 475 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,679 Speaker 1: doing his homework and doing all the assignments. And now 476 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 1: it's like what's Donald getting into him? Exactly? I smell smoke, 477 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: I smell up there false these are just these are 478 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 1: light flames. But he has been paying attention to the 479 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: media that Another thing that was reported by people who 480 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 1: spend time in the White House is that he gets 481 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: uncomfortable when his name is not in the media, isn't 482 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: like a headline, and he is getting super itchy these 483 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 1: past couple of days as George H. W. Bush's funeral 484 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: has sort of dominated the news for basically like a week, 485 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 1: sucking up all the oxygen and very inconsiderate of him, 486 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: if I might add, yeah, exactly. And Trump has basically 487 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 1: behaved himself because he's kind of gotten the sense that 488 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,640 Speaker 1: it would be a bad look for him with literally 489 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: everyone what he had like three straight terrible weeks or 490 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: four straight terribly so he probably in a way it 491 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: was like I kind of like this just for a second, Yeah, 492 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 1: take the heat off. But he's so into all this 493 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: good pub that Bush forty one is getting that he 494 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 1: is now looking at people from his administration to bring 495 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: in that. That's my loose theory. I was so certain 496 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 1: you were going to be like he is. He loves 497 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 1: the good publicity. W is getting that now he wishes 498 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: his dad was alive so his dad could die so 499 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 1: he could give a eulogy, but maybe you imagine a 500 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 1: eulogy delivered by him and like, how just the maybe 501 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 1: fifteen seconds of hope before he brought it back around 502 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: to himself. So I get infuriated seeing media things where 503 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: they call him well behaved because he didn't have an 504 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 1: outcry at a funeral of a president, because he didn't 505 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: freak out, and people were like, is this is this 506 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: a new leaf? And now not really leaves are big, 507 00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: you know, they have points and stuff. There's a clip 508 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: of everyone reading the apostles creed at the funeral and 509 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: they're like, here's your evangelical president. He like he wasn't 510 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: even looking. He's just staring and nothing and looking around. 511 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 1: Well yeah, but anyways, William Barr. Yeah, and he's it's 512 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 1: looking like he's gonna pick William Barr, or at least 513 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 1: he's the leading candidate who is a former attorney general 514 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: under President George H. W. Bush and is emerging as 515 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 1: a consensus candidate to succeed Jeff Sessions, which is shockingly 516 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: just right down the middle of a choice, like that's 517 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: a normal president. That's a normal but he's in the past. Though, 518 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: Bar does fit the Bill because he's kind of said like, well, 519 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: you know, if you wanted a probe Clinton allegations doc, 520 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: that could be all right, and also has criticized Mueller. Yeah, 521 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: I think that where the center is has just shifted 522 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 1: so far too. But yeah, to give him credit or 523 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 1: whatever he said, like when it came to the Clinton thing, 524 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: it was just sort of saying like, I don't see 525 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: a problem with a president calling for the investigation just 526 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: so long that it's just because he wants it. So 527 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: I guess he's and he might be just slick enough 528 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: to be like, look, I'll take the job, but I 529 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: know just enough you know, nice things to say that 530 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: won't be music to his ears and so weird time 531 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 1: to jump on the ship. Yeah, And it's not like 532 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 1: he's a perfect you know, like anybody's going to like 533 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,719 Speaker 1: him in the end. He's a super hard line pro 534 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: executive power. This is just where it's at though. If 535 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: it's anyone with any experience who can be seen as 536 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: neutral or even just quiet, Yeah, they were like, good 537 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: for him not picking like his neighbor or something, or 538 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: a guy with a gun avatar on Twitter. Good for 539 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 1: him for not making a poll online to have someone again, 540 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: it's the extremely low expectations we have for Trump that 541 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: were like, he picked a quiet person who seems like 542 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: he's done the job before. That's amazing since some of 543 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: his other multiple of his other picks were racist cowboy. Yeah, 544 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: we just we're meaning back over here or Huckleberry Hound. 545 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: But it seems like he might be quiet in the 546 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: way that Dick Cheney was quiet, like terrifying. Yeah, just scheming, 547 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: just like George H. W. Bush's funeral. Dick Cheney was 548 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 1: scheming in the road behind them. It was incredible too, 549 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: that Dick Cheney is alive. Yeah, it's I don't want 550 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: to say good medicine, but even for only him, good 551 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 1: for him and only him. He just wants to see 552 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: this biopic, I think, Yeah, I want to see Christian 553 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: Bale pulls it all like he's going to be disappointed. 554 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: I bet he's one of these guys who watches the 555 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 1: first of every movie and then he'll leave me like 556 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 1: pretty good and like to see how that wrapped up. 557 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: Let's talk about Tucker Carlson. You guys, finally you saw 558 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: my tattoo. Yeah it's Tuck Gang. We go by Tuck Finns. 559 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: We just want an excuse to say the N word. Right. Hey, 560 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: it's in the book, man, my teacher read it in 561 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: seventh grade. I don't want to put her on blast, 562 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: but she just out like we wouldn't have been able 563 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: to follow had she not. She didn't to say word. 564 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: The rest of it was silent. You just call him Jim. 565 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 1: You know. James is even good, he works. But Tugger 566 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: Carlson is, you know, basically the world's whimpiest white nationalist. 567 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: But he gave an interesting interview to a Swiss magazine 568 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: where he basically gives Trump an f in presidenting. Yeah, 569 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: well this man, it's funny. I didn't really as you 570 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: read the thing, you realize, dude, Tucker Carlson like went 571 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: to some elite boarding school in Switzerland too, and he's like, 572 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: I got kicked out. Yeah, And they're like the beginning 573 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: of the interview so weird. He's like, I love the 574 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: cheese here. Imagine Switzerland taking a stand on you right now. 575 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: How's once you have to suck for them? We actually 576 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: have thoughts on this. They're like, we'll look, we'll hold 577 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: your Nazi goals, don't there. But I think there's so 578 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: many of these, like really wimpy alt right guys who 579 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: don't realize they are the guys the guys they love 580 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: hate right, they are weak, they are they all look 581 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: like thumbs. They they're not beloved by these guys they 582 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: cherishes like who are also pieces of ship. But these 583 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: guys that they like look up to, hate them, they hate, 584 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 1: they look down on them, they bully them. Everyone's less 585 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: than these guys they love. And he's one of these 586 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: guys that's just like he has no idea. Everyone on 587 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: every side actually dislikes him. Yeah, I mean they were 588 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 1: even kind of like tongue in cheek. I think a 589 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: little bit with the interview, You're like, oh, what do 590 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: you know about Switzerland? He's like the how they're in 591 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: the movie. There's always all these movies from the nineties 592 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: where kids are rich and they don't realize all their 593 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: friends are only around them because of that. And then 594 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: when it comes out and they're like, no, you're bad. 595 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: We all like each other and hate you. That's how 596 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: he is. Is he just you just he just has 597 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: a show or whatever? Right, Well, these quotes. I was 598 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: surprised because we were talking i think earlier in earlier 599 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: episode this week about how I'm waiting to see more 600 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 1: people on the right begin to be actually critical of 601 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: the president, like to demonstrate that they're looking at the 602 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: situation and can call it for what it is. Now. 603 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: Mind you, this isn't the most staving thing, but uh, 604 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: it's it's part of I guess sometimes Tucker Carlson can 605 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: be somewhat honest, tries not to look like a total 606 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: sick of fan. But when he said his chief promises 607 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: or that he would build the wall, defund Planned Parenthood, 608 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: and real pee Obamacare and he hasn't done any of 609 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: those things, He's like, I don't think he's capable. I 610 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: don't think he's capable of sustained focus. I don't think 611 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: he understands the system. I don't think the Congress is 612 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: on the side. I don't think he's own agencies support him, 613 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: and he's just not going to do that, right. I Mean, 614 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: it's not exactly, you know, the most hard line criticism 615 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: you've ever seen. But at the same time, he's at 616 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: least acknowledging he's an ineffective idiot. He has achieved funk all. Granted, 617 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: he is saying that like the way he's arriving at 618 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 1: that conclusion is because he hasn't shut down Planned Parenthood 619 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: and built a wall on the Mexican boards US. But yeah, 620 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: because and then he goes on to say, like, but 621 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: that might not be his place, Like he could just 622 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: be this president that's meant to begin these conversations about 623 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: xeno phobia. That one gout an idiot scene that he's 624 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: been had by a different idiot that I kind of 625 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: enjoyed watching. But then he kind of talks about how 626 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 1: Trump's just sort of generally doesn't get it at all. 627 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: So he says, in order to do it, I mean, 628 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: like I guess he means effect change in d C 629 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: is like you really have to understand how it works, 630 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: and you have to be very focused on getting it done. 631 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 1: And he knows very little about the legislative process, hasn't 632 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: learned anything, and surrounded himself with people that can't get 633 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: it done, hasn't done all the things you need to do. 634 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: So it's mostly his fault that he hasn't achieved those things. 635 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: I think he's These people who thought he actually cared 636 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: about them blow my mind. I think he's achieving what 637 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: he wants to achieve, which is he will be richer 638 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: when he leaves office than when he went into office, 639 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: he will be in jail. Hopefully he's in jail. But 640 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: you know, it's all he wants is to benefit himself, 641 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 1: and he's benefiting himself. And now these people like where's 642 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: the wall. He doesn't care about the wall. He cared 643 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: about the idea of a wall to get elected, to 644 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: get himself something. And to be honest, I totally don't 645 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: believe that he thought that Trump was going to be 646 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 1: an effective leader as the president. I mean, the guy 647 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: made the most like glancing references to like, yeah, I'm 648 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: gonna do things for this country. But the only time 649 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: he's ever been convincing Rump is you know, talking about 650 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: how awesome he is, like he's changing everything else changes 651 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: on a day to day basis. Thought this self motivated 652 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: narcissist had my best thoughts, and well, I think they 653 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 1: maybe thought it could be a thing where w came 654 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: in and he had a team around him who knew 655 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 1: how to do ship on the hill and he just 656 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: had to be like these are my terrible fucking ideas 657 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: or chain he was like this is this is a 658 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 1: game plan. But I think maybe they were hoping that 659 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: he would have that kind of potency, Right, Who would 660 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: have thought these people would be let down by this 661 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: man who would pretty much let down everyone his whole life. Right, 662 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: So let's talk about the president's hotels because apparently they 663 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: are very popular with tourists from his specific nation. Yes, 664 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: which one, Sudrabia? I was going to guess that one? Yeah, 665 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: interesting it? Well, yeah, I mean I think we all 666 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: know money is the key to this man's clogged heart. 667 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: Uh so, yeah, the Saudia is I think realize this 668 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 1: how one dimensional he is, like like and get basically 669 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: putting up arms deal on the table to sort of 670 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 1: leverage that for other things. But Mohammed Been salone's been 671 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: really helping out the ailing Trump hotel in New York City. Apparently, 672 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: like after two years of decline at the Manhattan Hotel, 673 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: the Trump International revenue from room rentals went up thirteen 674 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 1: percent in the first three months. Huh what caused that? 675 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: A last minute visit to New York by the Crown 676 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: Prince of Saudi Arabia. Yeah, but of course Mohammed Been 677 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: someone will not be caught dead at a Trump hotel. 678 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: That's where all his like underlings Entrege stayed.

So 682 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: he's like, you can always tell the people the few 683 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: people that Trump will say nice things about other people. 684 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,359 Speaker 1: He's jealous of the people. He wants to have their 685 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: lifel Like, he couldn't bring himself to say a negative 686 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,840 Speaker 1: thing about it because he's jealous of it because he 687 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: wants to be him. Right, He's like, well, maybe he'll 688 00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: let me in my club, but we can touch that 689 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 1: globe again. I want to be give me in on 690 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,479 Speaker 1: that high five man. His hungry eyes when he saw 691 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 1: pooting an MPs. Oh yeah, just he's looking at that 692 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:15,800 Speaker 1: being like dream we it's I so much will I 693 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,720 Speaker 1: wish one world leader had done that thing on Instagram 694 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: where it zooms in and flame shootout everywhere while it 695 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 1: was happening right there, Come on, Merkel, just throw up 696 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 1: a dramatic super zoom. I don't know if I don't 697 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:27,439 Speaker 1: know if I'm one of your v I P friends, 698 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 1: but I follow the story. Yeah, get your you know, 699 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: get your story games up. But also, uh, NBS has 700 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: also been will not him directly. But the Saudi lobbying 701 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: arm has been also very very nice to the d 702 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: C Hotel, the Trump d C Hotel also, So like 703 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: all incidences everywhere, Yeah, within a month of Trump selection, 704 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 1: the lobbyists who represents the Saudi's they paid for what 705 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 1: they estimated around five hundred nights in just three months 706 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 1: at that hotel booked it for five Maybe they're making 707 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: a sequel to that Joseph Gordon Levitt Zoey Deschanelle movie 708 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 1: of Winter Nights of Screams. Uh well, yeah, but the 709 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: wild thing was the reason though is even more absurd. 710 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 1: So what they did was it was part of a 711 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: quote unquote lobbying effort where they were offering US military 712 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 1: veterans like all expense paid trip to Washington, d C. 713 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:25,759 Speaker 1: So they would lobby against a law that the Saudis opposed. Um, 714 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: so the Saudis were paying for US military veterans to 715 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 1: come to d C. And then the US military veterans 716 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 1: were just suddenly having Arabia in their best interests. Well, 717 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: the thing is they didn't know that the Saudages are 718 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 1: paying for it. So like what happened was they found 719 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: a few veterans to like organize other ones and just 720 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: be like, hey, we should come by. We're gonna Just 721 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: one of the emails said, quote storm the hill, uh 722 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: to talk about this law to keep soldiers safe. You 723 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 1: know what that law was. It was the law that 724 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,839 Speaker 1: allows victims and families of victims of terrorism to sue 725 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 1: countries that spawned to terrorism. God, I mean it looks 726 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 1: look at the nine eleven hijackers board here, Yeah fifteen 727 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: so yeah, fifteen out of the nineteen hijackers were Saudi's. 728 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: So I think that is the big reason that they 729 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: want to do not want that. Well, the crazy thing, 730 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: I think it's just a bunch of coincidences. It's just 731 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: I don't see the law where the line is drawn, 732 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 1: Like well what I mean, what are they gonna do? 733 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,399 Speaker 1: But it's like if you put up a bolton board, 734 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: you know how there's all those conspiracy theory years would 735 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,840 Speaker 1: be three photos with one piece of string going straight 736 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: across three photos, Like I don't know, I think I 737 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: might have solved it. There's no way it's the city. 738 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: There's no way they're hiding in point sit but and 739 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 1: in plain site. Well. The the whole thing too is 740 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 1: they were going with the most tired talking points, like 741 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 1: they'd go to Chuck Grassley's office and like Chuck Grassley 742 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: is like aids were like, this hasn't even like we 743 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: haven't publicly discussed this yet, but okay, and they're like, yeah, 744 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 1: we just feel like it's going to put the soldiers 745 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 1: at risk. And then like other people on the hill 746 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 1: began to be like, are you the guys that were 747 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,800 Speaker 1: bribed to come in here? Like it was it was 748 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 1: such a farce to like the actual politicians they were 749 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: living that so transparent and yeah, the irony was most 750 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 1: of them didn't know that that's who was at the 751 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 1: you know, paying cutting the checks for their little trip. 752 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 1: Just two middle men and wittes the I just think 753 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 1: they're getting trip. We can you imagine It's like your 754 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: country sponsors the people who kick off the thing that 755 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: give you the pretext for this massive war that takes 756 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: millions of lives and the wrong place. Yeah, and these 757 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: are people who like probably presumably fought in those wars 758 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: to come back and then are now lobbying on behalf 759 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:35,800 Speaker 1: of It's such a mind fuck.

There were snubs, 786 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 1: I guess, but let me just read off Best Motion 787 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 1: Picture Drama, Okay, Black Panther, Black Klansman, Bohemia, Rapsodi, if 788 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 1: Beal Street could talk. A Star is Born? Now, so 789 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: this is the this is the Awards show that has 790 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: a musical or comedy category with the Martian, right, yes, exactly. 791 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 1: And but they didn't put A Star is Born in 792 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 1: the musical category because Oscar lobbying problem. Because it's no, 793 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 1: it's it's it's up to the studios to submit it first. Yeah, 794 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 1: That's why I think get in the studio wants it 795 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: to win in Oscar. That's why when the whole uh 796 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: what the mars thing we're talking about Martian the Martian 797 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: came out, every was like I wish we didn't tell 798 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:09,800 Speaker 1: you when I wish we watched your damon Marsman. We 799 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: are Marsman? Yeah, um no. So yeah, like because they 800 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,439 Speaker 1: submitted it because it's such a congested category. That's where 801 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: it gets a little weird, because like, don't don't game this, 802 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:22,919 Speaker 1: this this is like I'm like, this is I feel 803 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 1: like Bohemian Rapsy. You should have gone into the musical 804 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 1: one if it wanted a chance to win, because it 805 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 1: feels like what is it? From what I didn't see it, 806 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 1: but from what I heard about it, it doesn't seem 807 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,919 Speaker 1: like it was an award winning Yeah, people like I guess, 808 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 1: you know, but I think when you look at the 809 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 1: voting block, it's a it's there. No one's American. So 810 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 1: like their tastes are a little bit different too, Like 811 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 1: they like they love musicals a little bit more. They 812 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:49,320 Speaker 1: like sentimental stuff like throwback e looking stuff, prosthetic teeth 813 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 1: them love them. Um you know. The So for the 814 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 1: musical or comedy nominations, it's crazy rich Asians, The Favorite 815 00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:01,359 Speaker 1: Green Book, Mary Poppins Returns, and Vice, the Dick Cheney film. 816 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 1: I haven't seen any of the movies except Black. I saw. 817 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: Black Panther and Black Plants are the only two of 818 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 1: these I've seen. Black Panther, A Star is Born, parts 819 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: of Black Clansman like that was on a screener. Well, 820 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 1: I've seen parts of all of these in the trailers. Okay, 821 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:20,279 Speaker 1: basically you only watch talk to learn. If I want 822 00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:23,439 Speaker 1: to see a movie, someone has to have animated at home. Yeah, 823 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:25,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, So what's up? What's up for 824 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,479 Speaker 1: best Sound edit? It? I'm just it's really good. Although 825 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 1: it is fun to I don't know. I have no 826 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: real opinion on on any of these movies. Here's what 827 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 1: this is. I don't want to spoil what my tweet 828 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: is for the end has to do with this a 829 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 1: little bit ahead. I couldn't. We just will actually censer this. Okay, 830 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 1: that's fine. So uh it is legitimately just the tweet 831 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: saying that Black Panthers is rotten tomato sweet. This Black 832 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,760 Speaker 1: Panthers for Supermo would be nominated for Best Picture Drama 833 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 1: at the Golden Globes. I didn't. I couldn't. It's such 834 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,880 Speaker 1: a waste land of sadness on Twitter. I couldn't find 835 00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: anything very funny um to pick. But I have so 836 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 1: many thoughts on superhero movies as as they I'm not 837 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,240 Speaker 1: even a comic book guy, but just how they exist 838 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 1: in culture. I think it's an exciting moment for one 839 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:10,399 Speaker 1: of them to be taken a little bit. Any step 840 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 1: of their legitimacy makes me happy because I think they're 841 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 1: kind of all the most universal storytelling. Now is this 842 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,880 Speaker 1: giant universe we've all bought into for forty hours, right right? 843 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 1: No one's watching any TV show that long. No one 844 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: has read anything not, there's no nothing that a billion 845 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 1: people have all spent forty hours doing together. I mean, 846 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,720 Speaker 1: you know, the in terms of TV, right, Like, somehow 847 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: Atlanta got snubbed. That's when I'm like, yeah, that isn't 848 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 1: bizarre good because that was a great show that also 849 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,320 Speaker 1: seems critically beloved. Yeah, but I think because they already 850 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 1: gave Atlanta a Golden Globe last year, I think they 851 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 1: missed it last year too, didn't They didn't. I thought 852 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 1: John Ever went up talking about me, goes, oh, he 853 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 1: just won for writing First Performer. Okay, I think this 854 00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,920 Speaker 1: was the best season of the show. Yeah, yeah, but 855 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:56,440 Speaker 1: I guess, you know, but at least they got the 856 00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 1: good good place, you know. I'm happy about that for 857 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: for them getting their little shine. Uh and Barry, I 858 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: feel like was a really Mike was very impressed by Barry, 859 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: but a lot of people were like, how was John 860 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:11,320 Speaker 1: Krasinski not nominated for Jack Ryan? Who the funk was that? 861 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 1: They said that on Vulture some other website. I mean, 862 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 1: he didn't necessarily show range in that because I think 863 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 1: he also played that guy in a movie about Benghazzi 864 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,719 Speaker 1: was just like a military cop man. Yeah, who just 865 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,320 Speaker 1: who had to fight back doing like a half movie 866 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 1: that they showed at Dallas Cowboys Stadium to premier it. 867 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 1: Until they did, they wanted to rally together, so they 868 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 1: got a hundred thousand people to come watch the Benghazi 869 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:40,800 Speaker 1: Michael Bay movie in a football field. And Hillary didn't 870 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 1: get elected, right, they well they all voted there, right 871 00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:44,920 Speaker 1: right there, and they're like, okay, who are voting for 872 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 1: that campaigned at that stadium a little more And if 873 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 1: Bernie would have let that stadium, I don't know. Yeah, 874 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,839 Speaker 1: but The Alienist was one I feel like every once 875 00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:59,280 Speaker 1: in a while they're these Golden Globe nominations that suggests 876 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,840 Speaker 1: to me it's almost like by sheer like tyranny of 877 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 1: will the studios or the companies behind them just like 878 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,759 Speaker 1: get the show nominated in the category, Because like The Alienist, 879 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 1: I saw nothing but like ads everywhere for the alienist, like, 880 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,439 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think I heard one person say 881 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 1: they thought it was good. I think it's based on 882 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 1: that novel where Teddy Roosevelt is a police chief of 883 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 1: New York and is dealing with like one of the 884 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 1: earliest serial killers. It's a piece of historical fiction. Was 885 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,920 Speaker 1: Teddy Roosevelt actually a police chief? Yeah, of New York City? Yeah? 886 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 1: For him? Yeah, he's a bad mother. Fest sounds interesting. Yeah, 887 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,640 Speaker 1: it does sound interesting, but they just the way they 888 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:42,800 Speaker 1: promoted it, it looked like the Nick or who I 889 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:45,440 Speaker 1: loved the Nick I did too, but it just blended 890 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: in with that. Yeah. Um, Sasha Baron Collen got nominated 891 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 1: for Performance in a Television Series. He's not really, he's 892 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 1: just doing what was it him as a whole? Or 893 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 1: did they say his performance of one of who They're like, hey, 894 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 1: who is America? Come on down? That was? I love 895 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: that show so much. It made me so tired. Yeah, 896 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:06,879 Speaker 1: it made me so tired watching it, But I thought 897 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,200 Speaker 1: it was a fantastic. But I could watch like a 898 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 1: segment and then I was like, well, I gotta walk 899 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: around for a little bit and and I can't do 900 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 1: especially this where they went to Arizona and pitched building 901 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 1: the mosque there. I thought was like, I was like, oh, 902 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 1: this is the peak of what comedy can be. And 903 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: I think this is incredible. That's like a piece of 904 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 1: art and comedy where if I made something like that, 905 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 1: I would be happy with my life. And also at 906 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:31,919 Speaker 1: the same time, I was like, I need to watch 907 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,759 Speaker 1: this with other people, and I needed I need to 908 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 1: be in a well lit room, and like it was 909 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: crazy how uncomfortable it made me. I don't need Yeah, 910 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,799 Speaker 1: I mean what it sounds like, I'm a libtard. Get 911 00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: a little of this guy. He has to watch in 912 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 1: a well lit friends, and that's what libtard is short 913 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 1: for lit and uh tartists. Ye, it's librarian tartis. So 914 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: I watched it a read in a phone booth. Actually, 915 00:46:56,640 --> 00:47:00,360 Speaker 1: we always talk about how comedy never gets any credit 916 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 1: in award shows and this best performance by an actor 917 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 1: in a television series and it is musical or comedy. 918 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:10,720 Speaker 1: But you have Sasha Baron Cohen, Jim Carrey, Donald Glover, 919 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:15,440 Speaker 1: and Bill Hayter. Oh you're don't leave out Michael Douglas comedy. 920 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,800 Speaker 1: Michael Douglas, Jim Carrey is in a show called kidding 921 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 1: that reunites him with Michelle Gondry from Eternal Sunshine. Um, 922 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 1: I'm one of the best music video directors ever. Yeah, 923 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,360 Speaker 1: I'm glad. You know. In terms of limited series, the 924 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:37,280 Speaker 1: alienists what you're saying, the assassination of Johnny Versaci, escape 925 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:41,280 Speaker 1: at Dana Mora, sharp objects, and a very English scandal, 926 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 1: doesn't he How long has the assassination of Johnny Versaci 927 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 1: been around? Is it limited? It's like in the eighth 928 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:47,880 Speaker 1: season of Being Limited.

That seasons was Johnny Versaccia. 931 00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:57,400 Speaker 1: So I think if you have a completely new storyline, 932 00:47:57,400 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 1: you're allowed to call it a limited I kind of 933 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:00,920 Speaker 1: like these limited series that seems to be where we're 934 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:02,960 Speaker 1: moving with all this stuff. It's like sometimes I see 935 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 1: a movie I wish was four hour television episode, and 936 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 1: sometimes I see twenty episodes of a show that I 937 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 1: wish were four episodes. I'm sure like the limited ones, 938 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:13,239 Speaker 1: you can be like, look, it's like a really long 939 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 1: movie you're doing. Yeah, and it's going to be premium 940 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:20,360 Speaker 1: prestige TV, so why not? Yeah? And miles, Will you 941 00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:23,399 Speaker 1: be going?

Yeah, 945 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 1: well you know it's the wrong season for that. Probably 946 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: not in affluence Zeitgeist. Um yeah again. People were I 947 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 1: think shocked that Roma wasn't in the main contention, but 948 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 1: it got in for Foreign Language at a movie.

They've released it for like three weeks. 952 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 1: I think if Netflix wanted to be taken little more seriously, 953 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 1: let's go ahead and just kill the career right now. 954 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 1: If you're overwhelming me with things, yeah, just so, I 955 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,480 Speaker 1: don't know which ones are you actually really like, But 956 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 1: they don't know which ones are going to be getting. 957 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 1: They're not going to get me to watch anything if 958 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 1: their shows keep having such funny names.
