00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: the inaccurate lines drawn on it, like the one we

00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 2: had at our school to like gauge however flexible you were.

74

Speaker 1: Was rope climb universal? Did everybody do the We don't have.

80
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 3: Rope climb at ours. We we had a rope climb

81
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 3: in mine.

82
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: I could not.

83
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 3: I could I just that was that was my like,

84
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 3: oh there's just no way I could ever.

85
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, same like the pull ups and rope climb. We're

86
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 1: a real mess for me. Well, congratulations on the one

87
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: pull up. Yeah yeah, hell yeah. I'm still too afraid

88
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: to try. But hey, you can do it.

89
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 2: Man.

90
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: You give hope to those of us who just got

91
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: up there and it's it's hard. My body is so heavy.

92
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: The thing is, because my body is so heavy, my

93
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: arms so weak, I can't support my own weight. What

94
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: is something you think is underrated?

95
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 4: So I this is always my go to and it's

96
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 4: such a dipshit answer, But I think kindness is underrated.

97
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 4: I think, especially now, we should one at all ship.

98
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 4: But then the other alert I appreciate it, no, you're

99
00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 4: right answer, But the the other sort of goes along

100
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 4: thematically with what we were just talking about is I

101
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 4: think like regional wrestling is underrated. Wow, And there's a

102
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 4: promotion in Oakland which I love so much called hood Slam,

103
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 4: which is like an amateur region. No it's not amateur,

104
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 4: it's regional wrestling. So it's not like pro at the

105
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,919
Speaker 4: ww WWE corporate sort of thing, but it's like a

106
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 4: professional local wrestling, and it's got so much vibe in

107
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,799
Speaker 4: personality and it feels gritty like the early twentieth century

108
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 4: I imagine, and I love it so much.

109
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: Yeah.

110
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, like local like wrestling. They I mean, while the

111
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 2: production value may be one thing, the dedication of those

112
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 2: people is like wild because I feel like I see

113
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: the wildest wrestling clips, like earlyst clips gone wrong, or

114
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 2: at these like sort of like local wrestling shows, or

115
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 2: someone's like, oh my god, that guy literally went through

116
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 2: like a patio glass door like.

117
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 4: That was I've seen, Yes, I've seen people like launch

118
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 4: you know what, you like twenty five feet from like

119
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 4: twenty twenty five feet high and like land on other

120
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 4: people in a way where I don't know how it's

121
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 4: possible right for everyone to be moderately okay.

122
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: And I yeah, there's no way that, like when it's

123
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: a person landing on a person, there's no safe version

124
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: of that. There's no like, oh well yeah, actually because

125
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: this part of their body like actually landed on the starde.

126
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: There's like too many variables at work there. There's just

127
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: like no way that's actually going to like work every time.

128
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: And I feel like that's the other thing that I

129
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: always find out about wrestling that I can't believe is like, yeah,

130
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: this is our hundredth show in May. It's like, wait,

131
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: what do you mean.

132
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 4: If dude, if I sleep wrong, I'm fucked for a week.

133
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 4: Like yeah, like like my I can't move my body correctly.

134
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 4: But these guys are like doing this, you know, a

135
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 4: dozen times a month, launching themselves off stuff and soya.

136
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 4: And I Also the thing I like about Huitsland too

137
00:06:58,360 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 4: is it's like pretty queer. Like there's a lot of

138
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 4: representation there, which is great. So it's like it's all around,

139
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 4: it's like fun for the whole.

140
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 2: Family, right right, Yeah, those are wild when they're like, yeah, man,

141
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 2: I take about fifteen fluorescent light tubes to the face

142
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 2: a day.

143
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

144
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if there's any like knock on effects

145
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 2: from like that's actually just my waft.

146
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how I get out of the bed in

147
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: the morning.

148
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 2: Makes for a nice pop, but it's it's safe for

149
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 2: us mostly, just like scratchy when you say it has

150
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 2: early twentieth century vibes.

151
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 5: What what specifically, Well, I'm really into the history of

152
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 5: wrestling and so so before Vince McMahon came into the

153
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 5: game and did, particularly in the early eighties sort of

154
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 5: this like corporate entertainment consolidation thing, wrestling from the late

155
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 5: thirties through the eighties was extremely regional.

156
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 4: It was like very gritty, It had local personalities, it

157
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 4: had you know, it was like it felt dangerous in

158
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 4: a way. I'm not saying that WWE does not feel

159
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 4: dangerous in various specific ways, but like it just felt

160
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 4: I don't know, it's like it feels like one of

161
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 4: the last truly like standing a local or regional phenomena,

162
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 4: and I like that a whole lot. It's like a scene.

163
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 4: It's its own scene.

164
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, and in like the late nineties, like early too,

165
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 2: like when e c W was like there's like there

166
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 2: was WWF and then there was e c W and

167
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 2: They're like, are you ready for e c W? And

168
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 2: I was like, no, I'm a baby. I do not

169
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 2: want to see r v D bloody this other man.

170
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 4: I'm still getting ready from the last thing. I'm not this. Yeah, No,

171
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:40,079
Speaker 4: I truly, I truly enjoy it. It feels it really

172
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 4: feels like it's from another time in the most positive way.

173
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. Like we like to say, you know, the true

174
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: American art form is like movies or rock and roll,

175
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: it's wrestling.

176
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 4: Wrestling if you can check it out if you don't

177
00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 4: know about it. Josephine Riseman's book Ring Master, about Vince

178
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 4: McMahon and his ascension all the stuff that he did,

179
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 4: is the best book that explains American political culture I've

180
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 4: ever read, because it sort of it maps a one

181
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 4: for one. He and Trump were like best friends in

182
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 4: the early eighties and continue to be close. Like there's

183
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 4: so many similarities and it is. I do think that wrestling,

184
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:23,839
Speaker 4: particularly the sort of like culture of it, is the

185
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,599
Speaker 4: best and easiest way to understand American politics.

186
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: That was the first thing that like Abraham Lincoln stood

187
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: out as is he he was like a great wrestler,

188
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: Like he was like people like back then it was

189
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 1: like you would go in and like grapple with someone

190
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: until somebody got like knocked off their feet, and he

191
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 1: was just like unfuck with able in that. Oh yeah,

192
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: he was just like throwing people around. Shout out to

193
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: Dan O'Brien.

194
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, a lot of a lot of wrestling presidents

195
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 2: I didn't realize.

196
00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, taft, that's what Biden's missing. Teddy Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge.

197
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's like it's like almost wild, how many of

198
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 2: these people are like, yeah, bro, the whole thing is

199
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 2: overpowering another human being.

200
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 6: That's why I gotta have a wide base, you know

201
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 6: what I mean. Yeah, all right, so we know that

202
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 6: you think the cat culture is underrated and timboul.

203
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: What is something you think is overrated? Overrated?

204
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 7: I'm gonna go with fancy water bottles. Also on this trip,

205
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 7: I meant to bring. My previous water bottle was silicone

206
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 7: and kind of got too moldy, So I was shopping

207
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 7: for new ones and getting recommendations from from friends and

208
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,679
Speaker 7: they're these like you know, fifty sixty eighty dollars water bottle.

209
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 7: Yoh yeah, there's a because because some people want them

210
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 7: like super insulated and it's tapered and it's got some

211
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 7: sort of design element to it. But even some of

212
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 7: the cheaper ones, you know, there's still you know, twenty

213
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 7: or thirty bucks. And and and I actually ended up

214
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 7: forgetting to bring the ones that I had that I tested.

215
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 7: And so at Lax they don't sell a plastic water

216
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 7: bottles anymore, which is great. So I just got a

217
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 7: bottle of in metal and uh and those fables and

218
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 7: it was you know, five or six bucks, and I

219
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,319
Speaker 7: made it through the whole trip, and I get to

220
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 7: use it again, no mold. Yeah, and if I decide

221
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 7: I don't want to, if I lose it, no big deal.

222
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 7: I lost five or six bucks. And and it's completely recyclable. Also,

223
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 7: so I think overrated. I do not see the advantage

224
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 7: of you know, even a twenty dollars fancy water bottle

225
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 7: compared to just getting a disposable, refillable regular water bottle

226
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,599
Speaker 7: bottled water at the airport or something in a metal container.

227
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: Like like a smart water. What do we do. What

228
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: are we working with.

229
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 2: There's a company that has like that cells, like those

230
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 2: metal bottles I know.

231
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: Like yeah, I think they did.

232
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 7: They did have some brands that I had heard before,

233
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,079
Speaker 7: like those like those ones, but this one, this one

234
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 7: like a little more sturdy.

235
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: And it was great.

236
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:52,239
Speaker 2: There go, yeah that's a I was just like just traveling,

237
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 2: the bringing a water bottle is so important because oh

238
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 2: my god. Yeah, I only in the last maybe two

239
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 2: years took seriously like how dehydrated you actually get on

240
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 2: a plane and how much that affects your ability to

241
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 2: like adjust with time change and things like that. So yeah,

242
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 2: and plus so many airports now are have like full

243
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 2: on refilling style station, so whatever kind of cup, like

244
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: if you have a Nalgene or whatever, you just pop

245
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 2: that shit.

246
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 7: Open and fill it up. And this works right for that.

247
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 7: What I hate that was when when you go through

248
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,199
Speaker 7: security and if you haven't consumed all your water and

249
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 7: they don't have like a sink or a drain to

250
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 7: put it in, and then you know pound like yeah

251
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 7: I got pounded, or you got to pour it into

252
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 7: this like flimsy plastic bag. Yeah yeah, but yeah yeah

253
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 7: on the plane, like and now, also I don't know

254
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 7: if they're all cutting expenses or just we were in

255
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 7: on the in the cheap skate section. But you don't

256
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 7: even get like a full bottle or can of water

257
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 7: when you when you ask for one anymore.

258
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 1: Tiny little cup. I do the thing.

259
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 2: I'm like, hey, man, can you top off my bottle?

260
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 2: And they're like, yeah, yeah, here right here, and they

261
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 2: just dump like the two liter into my ship and

262
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 2: I'm like, whoa, I appreciate that.

263
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, So that's again a testament to your energy that

264
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: it doesn't go well. You're like, and it's not to murder?

265
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 1: Could you dump that whole thing and my ship? Man,

266
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: keep your voice down, sir, Why are you screaming in

267
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: my wedding so much? Hey? Fill this ship up? Yeah,

268
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 1: I'm not.

269
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,680
Speaker 7: Saying I've got cleavers in my carry on.

270
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: But and if they were, they're not for murder. What

271
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: do yeah, sir?

272
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, no, Once I give them as gifts, all bets

273
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 7: are off. I don't know what my friends are gonna

274
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:25,719
Speaker 7: do with them.

275
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly right. All right, let's take a quick

276
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: break and we'll be right back. And we're back. We're

277
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: and we we've got alert set up, We've got a

278
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 1: couple people from the Zeitgeist newsroom who are on the

279
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 1: billionaire sub beat kind of. They have a line out

280
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: just in case anything pops up, and we just got

281
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 1: a flag.

282
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 8: We just got just got one. Well stop me if

283
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 8: you heard this one, folks. A billionaire who thinks he

284
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 8: is invincible due to his wealth thinks that he can

285
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 8: help build a submarine that can safely take people to

286
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 8: see the wreckage of the Titanic.

287
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 1: Me so familiar.

288
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're calling it billionaire sub tragedy to Titanic boogaloo,

289
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 2: and uh, we're not talking about the Ocean Gate disaster

290
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 2: from last year. This is a new idea from a

291
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 2: different billionaire, Larry Connor.

292
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: He said, quote, I want to show.

293
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 2: People worldwide that while the ocean is extremely powerful, it

294
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 2: can be wonderful and enjoyable and really kind of life

295
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 2: changing if you go about it the right way. Wow,

296
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 2: I guess not life changing and that it ends your life,

297
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 2: I guess. But the wild part is that this dude

298
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 2: was fucking inspired by those five people who died in

299
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 2: that other homemade submarine last June, to the point that

300
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 2: when he saw it he called his friend who owns

301
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 2: a submersible company with his best her idea, go see

302
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 2: the Titanic and not die. He said, quote, you know

303
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 2: this is apparently what the builders said, quote you know

304
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 2: what we need to do is build a sub that

305
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 2: can dive to Titanic level depths repeatedly and safely and

306
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 2: demonstrate to the world that you guys can do that.

307
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 2: And that Titan was a contraption. A little bit arrogant.

308
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: The Titan was a contraption using contraption like a clap trap,

309
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: like he's using it as he's like, this was a

310
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: submersible that was a that's like some bombs Sawyer together

311
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: Swiss family Robinson ass submarine.

312
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 4: Yes, it's weird to sell this as like a way

313
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 4: to illustrate that it was a contraption, Like we're all

314
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 4: not sold on that yet.

315
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: Right right right, They're like the thing with the video

316
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: game controller that everyone has that floated and killed a

317
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: bunch of innocent people. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

318
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 2: I just like the idea that this is just the

319
00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 2: call of homemade submersible to the Titanic, Like that's specific

320
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 2: idea is just irresistible to billionaires.

321
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: They just like can't stop themselves like that do you

322
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: ever hear about the my Way killings, Like the there's

323
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: this trend where anybody who sang the song my Way

324
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: by Frank Sinatra in the Philippines like got murdered. There's

325
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: like a ton of murders where it doesn't really make sense,

326
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: but it was just like they the singing of that

327
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: song for some reason in that culture like infuriated people,

328
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: and there were multiple murders that were blamed on that.

329
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: And it's just like this weird like something about that

330
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: specific culture and that specific song just didn't mix or

331
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: mixed in a very specific way and like caused people

332
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: to die. I feel like maybe we found like the

333
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: hack for killing billionaires. It's just this idea, the call

334
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: of the deep, Yeah, the call of the homemade. Like, hey,

335
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 1: you pulled yourself up by your own bootstraps with your

336
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 1: own bare hands. You should build a submersible with those

337
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: same hands. Yeah.

338
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 2: Maybe, yeah, don't use the Titanic, don't use your wealth

339
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 2: to like help anyone build a fucking build a fucking

340
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 2: really strong tin can to go look at some dead

341
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 2: stuff at the bottom of the sea and.

342
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: Maybe dying in the process.

343
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, Yeah, I mean, but this guy, So

344
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 2: he's actually kind of he's not a nube at this

345
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 2: kind of shit. It turns out like he has already

346
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 2: been to depths that far to surpass the Titanic site

347
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 2: alongside his friend who has like a submersible company. Like

348
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 2: he's gone to the like fucking Mariana Trench.

349
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: Like, wow, he's.

350
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 2: Gone below twenty thousand feet in a submersible. So I'd say,

351
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 2: like he definitely it stands to reason that he may survive.

352
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 2: But like when you look at his Wikipedia, he's like

353
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,919
Speaker 2: does all these like auto races. He's fucking He's like

354
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,640
Speaker 2: had this goal. He's like, I went to the Mariana

355
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 2: Trench and now I want to go to space. I

356
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,479
Speaker 2: want to do that within one year, go to the

357
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 2: deepest part of the sea and out of like into

358
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 2: outer space as the extremes I can reach with my wealth. Yeah,

359
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 2: the Titanic is around twelve five hundred feet, So I

360
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 2: mean he's so I don't know, well, I I part

361
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 2: of me just thinks, like maybe it's the law of

362
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 2: the sea that if you're a billionaire at a certain depth, like.

363
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,120
Speaker 1: It just the sea just consumes you. Just take it.

364
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 4: It calls you. It calls you to It's really that's

365
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 4: where like the siren myth came from. It's like, yeah, people,

366
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 4: it's like just calls them to the bottom. I truly,

367
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 4: I know it's it's it's a cliche to even bring

368
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 4: it up, and you just you just touched on it that.

369
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 4: It's like, I don't know why they don't think fixing

370
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 4: climate change would be the coolest thing. Yeah, like we

371
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 4: would all celebrate you, we would all not joke about

372
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 4: you for a day. Just fix the fucking problem.

373
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah exactly, we'd all.

374
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 4: Be so psyched and not elon, we would not make

375
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 4: fun of you for a full day if you fixed

376
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 4: climate Yeah, it's just yeah, put your money your wuth

377
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,360
Speaker 4: is because then I like you could actually solve world

378
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 4: hunger with bab It's like, okay, then fucking do it, genius.

379
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, what are you afraid of?

380
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 2: Like just two billion dollars to two hundred who cares?

381
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: Yeah the fuck up? Yeah. I think the way you

382
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 1: get to be a billionaire is being pathologically selfish exactly.

383
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 2: So you know, it's interesting I read this other thing

384
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 2: about his not greed exactly, but when the pandemic hit,

385
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 2: he made like one point six million dollars in profit

386
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 2: because like stock volatility, like that was after taxes. He

387
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 2: gave it all to his workers that were making like

388
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 2: less than like one hundred grand a year, like spread

389
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 2: it out like amongst his like employees, Yeah.

390
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: Larry Connor did.

391
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 2: But then it's also like sure, like you're a billionaire,

392
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 2: and you're like, oh, I just I fucking farted, like

393
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,120
Speaker 2: I parted out one point six million dollars on accident.

394
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 2: You're like, yeah, I guess they can fucking have that shit.

395
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 2: I mean, so I don't know if it's but and

396
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 2: then like other people like I was reading this article,

397
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 2: like he was also had like you know, was paying

398
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 2: for all the extended childcare that his employees need. So

399
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 2: he does like the bare minimum to not look like

400
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 2: an absolutely craven billionaire. But at the end of the day,

401
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:09,920
Speaker 2: you know, you're still a billionaire.

402
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: And at the beginning of the pandemic, like we were,

403
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,479
Speaker 1: there was like a conspicuous feeling where everyone was just

404
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 1: like looking around like wait, so these fucking people have

405
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 1: like what money. It was like that that imagine song

406
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: they released, that imagined song where we fucking hate you guys,

407
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 1: right right, And so yeah, very smart. He's like, you

408
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: can have my money, like throwing his wallet essentially when

409
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: he's being mugged.

410
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, look over there, cashuck losers for his life. Yeah,

411
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 2: but I do there.

412
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 1: If we're going to give up on them fixing climate change,

413
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 1: which I'm almost ready to do, I don't think it's

414
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 1: going to be.

415
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 2: A cynical jack cynicism man, a single individual billionaire of

416
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 2: his own accord, maybe like a gun point, they might

417
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 2: help fix the problem.

418
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, but if they're going to do projects with their

419
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: own money, like I love doing projects where their sense

420
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 1: of invincibility takes them to the bottom of the ocean

421
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: or into space, like in something that they tried to

422
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,120
Speaker 1: build themselves.

423
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 4: Right, Well, I mean it's it's and I'm glad that

424
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 4: they're taking out in themselves because the converse situation of

425
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 4: them helping fix climate change is they put the contraption

426
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,919
Speaker 4: in the air and it like brings us back to

427
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 4: the ice age or something along those lines. So I

428
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 4: just I'm glad when it goes wrong it usually only

429
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 4: takes them out. But I know, I don't know. Jury's

430
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 4: I don't know, AI, we'll find out soon.

431
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is wild that they like we would we

432
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: would like make name Christmas after you if you fucking

433
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 1: fixed climate change, we'd be like, Nope, this one's about now,

434
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: Mary Connor. Now.

435
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 2: I don't know, Yeah, I don't know. If God loved

436
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 2: the world so much that he gave his only son.

437
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 2: I think this billionaire gave up a lot of his

438
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:10,439
Speaker 2: money and saved the planet.

439
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 1: Dude, I don't know. Jesus, I think he might have

440
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: to fuck off on this one.

441
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 4: Move move over, Jesus.

442
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: You could have Boxing Day, Okay, America's dude, to like

443
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: take up Boxing Day. We'll give that to you, where

444
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,199
Speaker 1: everybody trades their presence. Don't you think we should have that.

445
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 2: That's kind of fun, dude, I give it up my

446
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:32,560

00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 1: get in excuse for that. Yeah, will keep that. But

469
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: I think Northwest might have a future in this industry.

470
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 1: So I've gotta, I've gotta, you know, be careful. Yeah yeah, yeah,

471
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 1: be careful with your words for sure. So I mean, yeah,

472
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: she recently like landed one of the starring roles in

473
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: this like thirtieth anniversary performance of The Lion King. Not

474
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 1: like the Broadway version. It was just more of like

475
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: songs from them from the movies, Like Nathan Lane was

476
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: there and Jeremy Irons was fucking there, and like you know,

477
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 1: even people from the recent remake and their performance went

478
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,719
Speaker 1: down over Memorial Day weekend and a lot, and you know, sadly,

479
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,719
Speaker 1: because the internet is a fucking shitty place, there's just

480
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 1: so many people talking wild shit about Northwest performance.

481
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 2: I'll play a bit of it here just so you

482
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 2: can kind of hear what we're talking about. And this

483
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 2: isn't to be like yeah, man, fuck yeah, fucking right.

484
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 2: They come to her now, uh huh. And then it

485
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,400
Speaker 2: goes around play more.

486
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,239
Speaker 1: All the professionals come in and are like, okay, we

487
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: got we're dancing around you. We're dancing around you. We're

488
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 1: dancing around you.

489
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 2: You're okay, You're okay, But yeah, I think, you know,

490
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 2: to be honest, I think it's an above average performance

491
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 2: for a ten year old in a school production. Yeah,

492
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 2: just keep it, keep it a buck here. And look,

493
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 2: she's having her fun, she's doing her best. But like

494
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 2: most people just decided to tear her down because you know,

495
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 2: like was saying, like, there are so many kids with

496
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 2: actual vocal and dance training that would have done such

497
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 2: a better job. And yes, while that's true, you're anger.

498
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 2: You should not be directed at a child get mad

499
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 2: again at her parents for putting her in this situation

500
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 2: because nepotism ain't going away, baby, It's all around, and

501
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:36,919
Speaker 2: in Los Angeles it's it will never go away. Every Yeah, truly,

502
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 2: there's nothing you can do. But like again, it does

503
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 2: suck for like kids that dedicate themselves to perform on

504
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 2: stage and then they just get swept aside because the

505
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 2: kid of like a celebrity couple like wants the role.

506
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 2: But yeah, it is interesting just to see like there

507
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 2: are I think equal I think after most people are

508
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 2: just like saying a bunch of wild shit on like TikTok,

509
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,399
Speaker 2: Instagram and like Twitter. Most of the people's writings like

510
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 2: is this was that Kim and Kanye are really setting

511
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 2: their kid up for success by doing stuff like this

512
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 2: because I don't I didn't know that Northwest was a

513
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 2: aspiring stage performer. It just felt like she's meant to

514
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 2: do a lot of stuff that her parents.

515
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:15,680
Speaker 1: Are like, yeah, try that, try that.

516
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 4: I didn't know they had a child at that age.

517
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 4: Like if you were like, guess what how old their

518
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 4: child is? I don't know, one five, I have no idea.

519
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 4: And then and apparently they're old enough to sing at

520
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 4: the Hollywood Bowl to the Lion King.

521
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, because like I just think of like how Kim

522
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 2: had the booze like removed from her appearance on that

523
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 2: Netflix Tom Brady roast.

524
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 1: So yeah, she must understand.

525
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 2: I mean it's people don't know why a lot of

526
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,159
Speaker 2: people are like she probably did not like that.

527
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 1: Most people were just talking about how she was getting food.

528
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 2: So at least on some level, she knows what it's

529
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 2: like when people don't take you seriously, at least from

530
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 2: like an ego like perspective. But like putting your kid

531
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 2: in that same position, it just feels a little bit

532
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 2: fucking wild, Like I like I also we're also seeing

533
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 2: this like with Lebron James and his son too right now,

534
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,920
Speaker 2: where there's a little bit like just let your kid

535
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 2: do what they do, don't get overly involved and create

536
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 2: outsized expectations. Much in the same way if you're going

537
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 2: to use your celebrity and be like we're jumping the

538
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,160
Speaker 2: line at this audition and this is the new child

539
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 2: Simba for the production.

540
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:26,640
Speaker 1: Just kind of.

541
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 2: Thing.

542
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 1: This whole thing just stresses me out, makes me feel

543
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 1: bad for the kid, makes me feel bad for the

544
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 1: kids who would have had a better chance were they're

545
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 1: these people's parents, not like cutting them to the front

546
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: of the line.

547
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean and I get it, Like I

548
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 2: think that that's why it just kind of freaks me

549
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 2: out because like as a parent, like I think my

550
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 2: own kid is a living fucking god.

551
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: But you know what I mean, Like this kid's fucking

552
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? Yeah, Like he can't walk

553
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,919
Speaker 1: the work judge. We are the worst judge, but he

554
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,400
Speaker 1: could be Simba in the Like I think I believe

555
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 1: that my kid, on the other hand, would have nailed that.

556
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 2: Yeh right, But like you know, but then also part

557
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,639
Speaker 2: of me realizes, like part of my role is to

558
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,159
Speaker 2: like nurture their interests and also give them like a

559
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 2: foundation to like operate from where they realize like dedication

560
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 2: and commitment are like the ways you can like improve

561
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 2: your skills or like your craft or whatever, not shortcuts.

562
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 2: But I think that might be impossible for Kim, especially

563
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 2: who has not who has basically ascended very passively and

564
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 2: probably thinks like that's normal and like not even like

565
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 2: that's fine, man, She'll just get fucking made fun of

566
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 2: a little bit. But at least she was up there

567
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 2: on that stage because that's my daughter.

568
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 1: The number one. Number one, Kim didn't ascend passively. Kim

569
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: like got out of like I feel like a household.

570
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: That is the equivalent of like when they talk about

571
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin coming out of like a prison in Russia,

572
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: like where everybody like murders each other and he's the

573
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: only survivor. She's like the bane of American popular culture,

574
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 1: like American popular trash culture. I think she's a she's

575
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: a survivor. I think she'll be she she she earned

576
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: a lot of the attention. Yeah, well hey, and then

577
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 1: Chris did a lot for her career.

578
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 2: So maybe there's also that too, where she's like the

579
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 2: mother will also assume a lot of responsibility in getting

580
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 2: the child their own sex tape.

581
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 4: Yes, I just think, I mean, this is just all

582
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 4: of that is I think beautiful and rational. I just think,

583
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 4: you know, this is yet another circumstances which there's no

584
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 4: one around you being like, hey, maybe not, maybe don't

585
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 4: do this. Yeah, what are the twenty years since you've

586
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 4: had anyone say no to you? Right? Right?

587
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 1: What?

588
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 2: I wonder what happened like if someone everyone's like, did

589
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 2: you ask North if she wants to do this? I

590
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 2: don't she wants to do it. Okay, I know her,

591
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 2: she said no, she was crying all the way to

592
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 2: the audition, but she wants to do it.

593
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 1: She wants to I know, I know, I know, but yeah,

594
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: it's I mean, because that's the thing.

595
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 2: It's like for getting mad at a kid who like,

596
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 2: if they have any sort of desire to perform, they're

597
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 2: not They're gonna be like, I don't know if I'm

598
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 2: ready to be Simba and this like really cool thing

599
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 2: that's happening. Of course, every kid who has a remote

600
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 2: interest is going to say yes. So being like what's

601
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 2: wrong with Northwest? It's like, dude, she's ten, okay, right, yeah, yeah,

602
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 2: there's nothing wrong with not it.

603
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: Look at this, look at this part of her perform. Yeah.

604
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: And that's why I keep saying the same thing about

605
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: RFK Junior, Like, guy, he didn't choose Oh wait, how

606
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: old is he sixty? But he has the mind of

607
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: a spoiled ten years? Oh he's seventy. I'm sorry, Oh wow,

608
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 1: he's seventy. Eh he's seventy. Wo dude, that's crazy that

609
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 1: he's the young one seventy.

610
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 4: I know, he's a young, spry seventy.

611
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, very spry, very spry, very spry. But yeah,

612
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: so there's been a lot of talk about who RFK

613
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: is going for in this, like is he trying to

614
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: appeal to the mega people? Is he trying to steal

615
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: the Joe Biden voter And and he kind of gave

616
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: us a little bit of a a better clue. Yeah,

617
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: when he was got he feigned outrage at the removal

618
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: of Confederacy statues.

619
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's I'm trying to figure out who this ven

620
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 2: diagram of voters is. Where that sweet spot is r

621
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 2: f K, you know, like right there in the middle,

622
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 2: because like he's into bitcoin, brainworms.

623
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 1: Ending forever wars, ending vaccines.

624
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 4: I think it's Stone. I think she. I think the

625
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 4: middle of the I love it's one d got me wrong.

626
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 2: It's Alicia Silverstone and Jessica Bielle kind of on the

627
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 2: low but you won't really say it out loud.

628
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 1: And justin Timberlake. She's not against vaccine, she's against the

629
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: injuries that vaccine could cause.

630
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 4: And she just loves statues, you know, four statues.

631
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 1: And I'm all about artisan work and artisanal work and copper,

632
00:31:58,840 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: the use of steels.

633
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 4: To you think of the artisans that.

634
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: Were exactly, but like, yeah, in this recent podcast, he

635
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 1: let people know, man, this is just quote.

636
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 2: I have a visceral reaction against against the attacks on

637
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 2: those statues. There were heroes in the Confederacy who didn't

638
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 2: have slaves, and you know, I just I just have

639
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 2: a visceral reaction against destroying history.

640
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: I don't like it. I think we should celebrate who

641
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 1: we are. Who we are.

642
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, slaveholders, that's your that's not y'all. That's on y'all.

643
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 2: I mean, hey, he said it, not me.

644
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: Quote.

645
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 2: We should celebrate the good qualities of everybody. If we

646
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 2: want to find people who are completely virtuous on every

647
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 2: issue throughout history, we would erase all of history. I

648
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 2: love that tactic. I love that rhetorical attack.

649
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: So he wants them up not as a reminder of

650
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: how bad slavery was, but as an opportunity to celebrate

651
00:32:54,640 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 1: the good qualities of Yes, Confederates, Yes, wow, I do

652
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 1: want it.

653
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 4: So this is important to say in this context. It's

654
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 4: like earlier I said kindness is important. I fully believe that,

655
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 4: but this is also a good time to reiterate that

656
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 4: you can be kind and acknowledge that this is so

657
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 4: fucking stupid. And responsible. Right, Yeah, I am, I'm I'm

658
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 4: similarly genuinely curious. I mean outside of just like appealing

659
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 4: to people who love podcasts that are heavily advertised by supplements.

660
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 4: Like that's who he's he's appealing to here, Yeah, people

661
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 4: who love the podcast, the supplement pushers.

662
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, like because they're like Robert E. Lee, that's like

663
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 2: one of like it's all based on this fucking just

664
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 2: weird rewriting of like the Civil War where a lot

665
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 2: of these people like to be like robbery Lee wasn't

666
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 2: a slave owner. And then it's like the fine print

667
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 2: is like, uh okay, it's like he inherited slaves through

668
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 2: his marriage or some shit, very reluctantly, and he fought

669
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 2: numerous legal battles for his right to own slaves. But

670
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 2: he's a goddamn hero. Okay, don't get focused on like

671
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 2: the bad ship. And yeah, like this whole thing is

672
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 2: about you. Hear this all the time with like you know,

673
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,439
Speaker 2: even the way people are kids are being taught about

674
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 2: the Civil War, like it's more and more it's not

675
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 2: about about like it wasn't about slavery, just about guys

676
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 2: who like love.

677
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:21,919
Speaker 1: Their homeland and they're just defending their culture. That's all

678
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: this whole thing was about. And then like, but don't

679
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 1: look at them. Why these statues were erected or why

680
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: these like forts were named after it. It's like these

681
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 1: were a salve to the.

682
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 2: Hurt feelings of white supremacists that felt fully defeated after.

683
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 1: They were going to Yeah, they're erected during the ascendancy

684
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 1: of the KKK, Like, yeah, and.

685
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,359
Speaker 4: We're going to arrest teachers that like actually tell you

686
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 4: the story of what happened in the Civil War. But

687
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:52,720
Speaker 4: it's not about that.

688
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 2: They're erasing history.

689
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: I know.

690
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 2: I think, no, it's your statue. I think to try

691
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 2: and make these people to be some like these virtuous

692
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 2: martyrs for.

693
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 1: For just love their town man, that's all what was well.

694
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 4: I think that, you know, And also like the contradiction.

695
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 4: It's so interesting because it's like there's always like a

696
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 4: big truth and a big lie being told simultaneously. And

697
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 4: the truth is this is who we are, like it

698
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 4: is it is part of they history that this has happened,

699
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 4: and that's an important thing to acknowledge and sort of

700
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 4: like what it represented. But then the lies in being

701
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 4: like these people were good actually and it's like, no,

702
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 4: we have to acknowledge that there's been a lot of

703
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,319
Speaker 4: bad yeah, yeah along the way.

704
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, these are the people who fought for the rights

705
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: of the South to own slaves. We don't want to

706
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,919
Speaker 1: erase that history. So here is a statue of them

707
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 1: looking fucking awesome on horseback.

708
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 4: Look at how many push ups you can do?

709
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 2: Look Look how fucking barrel chest did that? Dude is

710
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 2: bro Oh my god, but his kind face. Look at

711
00:35:55,600 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 2: his arms like Christmas hams so big, so big and strong. Yeah,

712
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,240
Speaker 2: I mean like so like Trump, RFK is also opposed

713
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 2: to the removal of these metal hunks of racist ideology.

714
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't know if he wins any Biden

715
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 2: voters with this, But again, this seems to be more

716
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 2: of a contest of who can do the worst job

717
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 2: in office rather than the best.

718
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, go off, go off, RFK. Let him know,

719
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 1: Let him know.

720
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 4: Do you think he and Hines are going to get

721
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 4: divorced after this? Like? Why is what's happening?

722
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,439
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean I've had that thought for

723
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 1: like eight years now, Like, well, surely this must be

724
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 1: a point at which she's like what the fuck? But clearly, clearly,

725
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,560
Speaker 1: not like I remember early days she was like kind

726
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 1: of distancing herself, but now she's like, you know, part

727
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,760
Speaker 1: of his campaign to run for president.

728
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 4: I don't know, maybe that'll be the October surprise. It'll

729
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 4: be the most biggest done of an October surprise, is

730
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 4: that she divorces him.

731
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

732
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 2: She just kind of seems to be like I don't Yeah,

733
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 2: you know, he says stuff, but you know.

734
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 1: We agree to disagree.

735
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:04,439
Speaker 2: I think was like the one of the last things

736
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 2: I saw from Fox News March tense stuff.

737
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

738
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,840
Speaker 9: You know, one of the things that I've learned, especially

739
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 9: about politics, is you're not going to agree with somebody

740
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 9: about everything and it's okay. So you know, we've we've

741
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 9: learned to talk through it, talk it out, listen to

742
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 9: each other, sometimes agree to disagree or say, oh, I'm

743
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 9: going to think about that. I hear what you're saying.

744
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to think about that.

745
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 2: That COVID seems to not affect the Chinese and Ashkenazi Jews.

746
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, thanks, honey. I'm gonna let me take a

747
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 1: second thought. Who do you think started at then if

748
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 1: it doesn't affect then or are you just being I've

749
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:55,360
Speaker 1: recovered from the worm.

750
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,319
Speaker 2: Okay, that was back then when I was going through

751
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,960
Speaker 2: a divorce and it it suited me to be effected.

752
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 1: Wow, she has like this very strange, very specific superpower

753
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 1: to be like really endearing as the partner life partner

754
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 1: wife of somebody saying like outrageous shit, like it's just

755
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,399
Speaker 1: she's used it. She took that and used it for

756
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 1: the worst ends, like I you know, she she went

757
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: from Larry on the show to just being like and

758
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 1: now I apply that same kind of smile, roll your

759
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 1: eyes and just be like, this is who I'm married.

760
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:43,360
Speaker 1: I guess energy to somebody who would fucking end the world.

761
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 2: I think it's like it helps him a lot to

762
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,959
Speaker 2: have someone on the surface seemingly as saying, as Cheryl

763
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 2: Hines beat to do like be good cop to his

764
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 2: like whack job cop, you know act.

765
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like it's like his fault first and foremost.

766
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 4: I never want to be like, well this post in

767
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 4: this is sort of you know whatever, but like she

768
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:07,240
Speaker 4: her not going, hey, guys, this is fucked and irresponsible.

769
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 4: Is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

770
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, it's but hey, it helps because pardon me,

771
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: I remember for the longest time.

772
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 2: I was like, well, Cheryl's like I liked Curbs so much.

773
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,479
Speaker 2: I'm like, well, if Cheryl's I mean, like she didn't

774
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,520
Speaker 2: put up with a lot of Larry's shit. You know,

775
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 2: it kind of got to a breaking point with Larry,

776
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,759
Speaker 2: So this can't be it can't be that bad with

777
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 2: RFK Junior Solf credit to that because that that protected him,

778
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 2: in my mind, from any real criticism for a long time,

779
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:38,000
Speaker 2: until I started be like, wait.

780
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: What the fuck is he actually saying, Robert, That's just

781
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 1: what I picture her saying a lot, Robert, Robert, what

782
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 1: are you saying?

783
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 2: What did you just say in there on your interview?

784
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 1: Just babe that you know it's Robert E.

785
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:57,000
Speaker 2: Lee was a good man and he didn't own slaves, Honey,

786
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 2: he did.

787
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 4: She's like, I'll think about that, Okay, go think about it.

788
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 1: I'm just reading this book about a biography of Robert E. Lee,

789
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 1: the Definitive One, and it's said that bitch quote between

790
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 1: owning a handful of slaves from his own family and

791
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 1: then managing his father in law's two hundred slaves, Lee

792
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: was very, very involved with slavery during his life and

793
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 1: up to the end of eighteen sixties. Okay, I'll think

794
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 1: on it, honey, I'm going to think on this. There

795
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 1: you go. All right, let's take a quick break, and

796
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 1: when we come back, we'll get to the real news.

797
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 1: The world's first airline for dogs.

798
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:43,240
Speaker 10: Here, Yes, and we're back.

799
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:48,920
Speaker 1: We're back. A lot of people are saying so, just personally,

800
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: I root for the box office. I want to be

801
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,800
Speaker 1: able to continue to see movies in theaters like Reagan.

802
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,280
Speaker 1: You were just saying, off to the future. Yeah, like Reagan,

803
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 1: Like reg I want to be able to Reagan in

804
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 1: August when people aren't afraid to say shit anymore. But

805
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: everybody likes a story about Hollywood's failing and they had

806
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 1: a tough The people who pull for the box office

807
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: had a tough weekend this past weekend as Furiosa, the

808
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 1: Med Max prequel, and Garfield. A lot of people were like,

809
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,680
Speaker 1: this is going to be the next Barbenheimer gar Furiosa.

810
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if people were seriously saying.

811
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 3: That, but I feel like I feel like it was

812
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 3: just me. I was the only person who was loudly

813
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 3: saying that.

814
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,720
Speaker 1: But that didn't happen at all. It was the worst

815
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:41,240
Speaker 1: Memorial Day weekend not counting the pandemic since the movie

816
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 1: Casper with Christina Ricci in nineteen ninety five. Yeah, damn,

817
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:52,879
Speaker 1: almost thirty years. Wow. Yeah really, yeah, they broke the streak. Yeah,

818
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 1: they really took it back to ninety five. Our writer

819
00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: JM says, by the way, Furiosa's way better than casper A.

820
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:06,319
Speaker 1: Furios is fantastic. Yeah, I mean I can only imagine.

821
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,480
Speaker 1: I we'll hopefully see it. But Casper, by the way,

822
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: a children's movie in which it goes to by my

823
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,319
Speaker 1: mass is at least in his forties, relentlessly hits on

824
00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: Christina Ricci as a teenager. Yeah, but he's like a ghost,

825
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 1: like but he's like a kid ghost, you know, he's

826
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 1: perpetually a kid. But yeah, yeah, yeah, but it's also.

827
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 3: Exactly certified Casper, certified pedaphigt.

828
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, furios is thirty two million. To put that

829
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:38,320
Speaker 1: in perspective, last year, Disney's A Little Mermaid remake made

830
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,400
Speaker 1: one hundred and eighteen million a Memorial Day weekend. The

831
00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 1: year before that, top Gun Maverick made one hundred and

832
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: sixty million. Obviously, those were both massive hits, so.

833
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 2: Let's just they're not on the same level like in

834
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 2: terms of international fandom, Like I mean, I get obvious

835
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 2: because Furry Road was huge, but not like to the

836
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 2: place where you have people who like live and breathe

837
00:42:57,680 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 2: a little Mermaid all the time, or like live and

838
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:00,919
Speaker 2: breathed top gun shit.

839
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,799
Speaker 1: Fury Road was like when it was coming out, we

840
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:09,240
Speaker 1: were all like, this is very silly, Like this seems

841
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:14,280
Speaker 1: like they have given a kooky old man a huge

842
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 1: budget to make a film in which people like the

843
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 1: names of the characters were the first thing to go

844
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:22,640
Speaker 1: viral because they were just like so over the top, right,

845
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 1: And then it came out and was one of the

846
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 1: best action movies ever made. And so I think people like,

847
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,799
Speaker 1: it's just so funny how people are like, so this

848
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 1: helmer legged it out to four hundred million, so expect

849
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 1: Furiosa to do the same. And it's like, well, it's

850
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 1: not lightning in a bottle, Like you're not gonna always

851
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 1: be able to capture lighting at a bottle the second time.

852
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 1: And also it's a fucking prequel. How many times do

853
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 1: we have to do this? You guys?

854
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, well I will agree, And that's what I'm a

855
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,319
Speaker 3: huge Like, I know, I talk about Garfia a lot

856
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,439
Speaker 3: but I'm also just a huge like Mad Max post

857
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 3: apocalyptic fan, So for me, this was just like this

858
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,319
Speaker 3: was genuinely weekend. I was like so soaked devoted. And

859
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:05,800
Speaker 3: you know, that's something that I really love about the

860
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,680
Speaker 3: Mad Max world is like you have a character named

861
00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:11,800
Speaker 3: the Bullet Farmer who farms bullets and has bullets for teeth,

862
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 3: and there's a point in like Fury Road where he

863
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,240
Speaker 3: pulls one of his bullet teeth out and then puts

864
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 3: it in a gun and then shoots somebody with his

865
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,839
Speaker 3: bullet tooth. It's just like it's just watching like an

866
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 3: insane fever dream for two hours. Oh yeah, And I

867
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,759
Speaker 3: super agree. I think that, you know, I think that

868
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 3: Fury Road was like George Miller, I think is a

869
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,759
Speaker 3: fantastic director, But I think that Fury Road just the

870
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,719
Speaker 3: alchemy on it was like so perfect of it's just

871
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 3: an insane car chase for two hours, you know, and

872
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 3: Furiosa I think was good. But I do think that

873
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 3: it was hurt by the fact that, like Fury Road

874
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 3: came out like a decade ago, and though it's considered

875
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 3: to be like the best movie the twenty tens, it's

876
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 3: just been a little while I feel like, you know,

877
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 3: just like the box office is a little bit fraction

878
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:57,239
Speaker 3: right now, and you know it Fury Road or Furiosa.

879
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 3: It definitely had buzz of like, oh, this is a

880
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 3: really good movie going into it, but it didn't necessarily

881
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,759
Speaker 3: have the like, holy shit, you have to see this,

882
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,360
Speaker 3: but yeah, you know, yeah, and I think it's gonna

883
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 3: have a little bit of a long tail, assuming they

884
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 3: don't just throw it on Max in two weeks or whatever.

885
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,360
Speaker 3: It's like, I think it's got good buzz, and I

886
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 3: think that like next weekend and the weekend after that

887
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 3: will probably also be I.

888
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: Think we'll continue to see. Like it's just so the

889
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 1: thing that happened about ten years ago is they let

890
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,560
Speaker 1: the marketing department take over what films got made and

891
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:30,759
Speaker 1: how they were developed. And so now that like the

892
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 1: Marvel movies and all the franchisees have been like juiced dry,

893
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:40,320
Speaker 1: they're like, now have to like make movie movies again.

894
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 1: And so it's like marketing people trying to make movie movies,

895
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:45,120
Speaker 1: and they're like, I don't know, make a prequel to

896
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 1: that one from the Barbie movie, Like the best thing

897
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 1: we love Gosling, Make a Gosling funny movie and it's

898
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 1: just like they're pulling pieces out, but like this is

899
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:59,720
Speaker 1: they The thing that is making those first movies great

900
00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:04,799
Speaker 1: is like the filmmaking and you know, the actual like

901
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 1: things that actually drive creative inspiration and creative execution. And

902
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 1: so I think we're going to continue to see like

903
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:17,759
Speaker 1: these types of like hyped movies like this isn't I

904
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: think it's weird that this is being pitched as like

905
00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:23,080
Speaker 1: a flop. That's not that big of a flop. It's

906
00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 1: like about what I would have expected it to do.

907
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,319
Speaker 1: But like, I think we'll see these movies underperform like

908
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: big box office expectations, and then we'll see like surprise hits,

909
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 1: Like we'll continue to see things like everything everywhere all

910
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 1: at once that like nobody sees coming and just like

911
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:42,400
Speaker 1: get through by nailing it.

912
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:45,879
Speaker 3: I think it's also tough because the industry is very

913
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 3: quick to label a movie as either a flop or

914
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,920
Speaker 3: a hit, like you know, day one of it being

915
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 3: out sure and like I mean, I don't know. It's

916
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:56,799
Speaker 3: like when I was a kid, like Jurassic Park was

917
00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:00,359
Speaker 3: in theaters for a year, you know, like like titan Next.

918
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,479
Speaker 3: Titanic is one of the most profitable movies of all time.

919
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 3: It's opening weekend was like, fine, you know, it did

920
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:07,839
Speaker 3: like what like forty million or whatever it's or fifty million.

921
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 3: It's opening weekend off of a several hundred million dollars project.

922
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,440
Speaker 3: I remember people were like, this is kind of a flop, guys.

923
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,560
Speaker 3: But then like, but then it's like second weekend, it

924
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 3: did like thirty five million. It just kept going up

925
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 3: six million, you know, and it just got that going

926
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 3: for like twelve weeks or whatever. And I think that, like,

927
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:24,839
Speaker 3: you know, Fall Guys is another movie that I feel

928
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:27,400
Speaker 3: if people immediately label to flop, but then like you

929
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,880
Speaker 3: go to any screening week two and screenings were packed

930

940
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 2: like to your point, Joey, like there is such a

941
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:02,879
Speaker 2: to immediately be like this is an impact right now,

942
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,600
Speaker 2: just over three days, I can tell you this is hit,

943
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:09,120
Speaker 2: this is flop, and yeah it's not. It's the worst

944
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:12,600
Speaker 2: way to assess a film. But yeah, I don't know.

945
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if they'll be able to fully quit

946
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 2: the habit of like you know, it's like the sort

947
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:20,200

00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 2: around the couch, like underneath the couch cushions for stuff.

949
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,399
Speaker 1: Then maybe they forgot about they can make a movie

950
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:27,680

1026
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,959
Speaker 3: and they stop and say, wait, we double booked the room.

1027
00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 3: And when we looked to the right and saw somebody

1028
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,480
Speaker 3: like two cats registers over just covered in Garfield are

1029
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:03,879

Speaker 1: Basically like.

1031
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:10,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So it was the odds of like we

1032
00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,080
Speaker 3: they double booked the room, this Garfield suite, and the

1033
00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:14,880
Speaker 3: two people the two groups of people who booked the

1034
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 3: room showed up at the exact same time that took yeah, yeah,

1035
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,160
Speaker 3: and it was it was intense. It was like people

1036
00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:23,160
Speaker 3: were like like they were like tears about to be shed,

1037
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 3: like you know, it was. It was we were all

1038
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,399
Speaker 3: very passionately but like politely but very passionately fighting over

1039
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:31,759
Speaker 3: this room themed after a nineteen seventies comic book character, right,

1040
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 3: and finally, you know, yeah for sure, for sure, for

1041
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:39,520
Speaker 3: sure So finally yeah. So the resolution was basically like

1042
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,640
Speaker 3: we kind of realized, okay, like there's no way that

1043
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,000
Speaker 3: both all of us are going to get this room,

1044
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:46,040
Speaker 3: you know, it's it's it's just not gonna happen. So

1045
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:47,480
Speaker 3: instead what we did is we were like, will you

1046
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:49,759
Speaker 3: like give us a refund and just let us take

1047
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,560

1052
00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:03,360
Speaker 3: a wild experience. You just filed that bedroom just for

1053
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:05,919
Speaker 3: good measure. Oh yeah, I for sure took a ship

1054
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:10,239
Speaker 3: in the ode. No, we tried to be like really

1055
