Yeah, that was my reaction. 6 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 2: So remember in March of twenty twenty two, if anyone forgot, 7 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 2: he was sentenced to one hundred and fifty days in 8 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,800 Speaker 2: Cook County jail, thirty months of probation, and he had 9 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 2: to pay lots of money in restitution as well as 10 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 2: fines after being found guilty of five counts of felony 11 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 2: disorderly conduct for filing a false police report after he 12 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,480 Speaker 2: hired two brothers from Nigeria to stage a fake hate 13 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 2: crime against him. Days later, however, he was released from 14 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 2: jail remember this, on bond depending his conviction appeal. 15 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 1: Well. 16 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 2: Earlier this year, he appealed his case to the Illinois 17 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: Supreme Court in an attempt to try to convince the 18 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 2: public that he really was attacked by homophobic racist during 19 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 2: that two am subway sandwich run in Chicago. In twenty nineteen, 20 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 2: Special Prosecutor Dan K. Webb issued a statement saying he's 21 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 2: really disappointed with the Illinois Supreme Court decision and respectfully 22 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 2: disagrees with overturning the criminal conviction. He made it clear 23 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 2: that the court's decision has nothing to do with the 24 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 2: actors guilt or innocence, and he categorically believes Jesse is 25 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,559 Speaker 2: guilty of perpetuating a hate crime Hulks against the City 26 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 2: of Chicago. So technicality basically, yeah, which I don't know 27 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 2: what he thinks is going to happen now, but. 28 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 1: I guess he's not going to jail. He only maybe 29 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: you mentioned this, but he served a very very slump, 30 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: like a day or two, didn't he Yeah, yeah, of 31 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty days, So like whatever, that's what 32 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: he's getting out of. He didn't have to go to jail. 33 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: I don't have a record, I guess, but his career's 34 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: got to be ruined. 35 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, they initially took him out of jail, and then 36 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 2: he's stuck. He struck another deal with Kim Fox and 37 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 2: then now he doesn't have to do any of it. 38 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 2: But again doesn't mean he's innocent, which is crazy. 39 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: The sad part is Klein, if only he had just 40 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: I think, if he had just come out and been like, 41 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: I screwed up. Yeah, I screwed up. It was I'm 42 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: an idiot. I'm sorry. Things go a lot fast. Probably 43 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: would have been I mean, he probably would have not 44 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: gotten like, you know, a list stuff. I don't think 45 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: he was B list, but you know, he's probably be 46 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: in a Hallmark channel or something like everybody else's commits 47 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: a crime. But that's Felicity Huffman and Jesse Smole. 48 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 2: I was just gonna say, well, Felicity was the one 49 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 2: in that whole thing to say yo, I did it, 50 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: And yeah she made friends in jail, and then now 51 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: people are like, not that mad at her because she 52 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 2: she owned it right. Jason el Dean's wife, Brittany is 53 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 2: calling out Billboard after they failed to include him in 54 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 2: a staff compiled list of the best country singers of 55 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 2: all time. On her Instagram stories, which she loves to 56 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: post on, Brittany accused Billboard of intentionally excluding him from 57 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: the list due to his conservative political beliefs. She notes 58 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 2: that this is just one example of the industry setbacks 59 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: that they've faced due to their political views and their 60 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 2: public support of Donald Trump. She won't remember when I said, 61 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 2: it's been a journey standing up for what we believe, 62 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 2: and this is a prime example of Jason being left 63 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 2: out of things in the industry. Billboard, your wokeness obviously 64 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: overrides your ability to give credit where it's due, and 65 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: it's sad. Jason's bassist also similar sentiments to Brittany, saying, 66 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 2: I don't know what's funnier Billboard, how ridiculous this makes 67 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 2: you look, or the fact that you think it would 68 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 2: bother us. Thanks for making that chip on our shoulder 69 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: just a little bit bigger. And I like to end 70 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 2: with a happy story because the world is wild. Benny 71 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 2: Blanco says girlfriend Selena Gomez was the one who made 72 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 2: the first move on him and asked him out, which 73 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 2: surprised me today. 74 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 3: Wow, that would be. 75 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 1: A wonderful feeling to have her hit on you. 76 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 2: Benny says that they were texting and she asked him out, 77 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 2: and this was kind of a move because they had 78 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,239 Speaker 2: been friends for many years. She asked him to go 79 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 2: to dinner, but he's like, yo, I already have plans 80 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: with friends, Come and then we can go to dinner 81 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 2: after which happened. But the joke was that he didn't 82 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 2: realize it was a date. The way he found out 83 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 2: it was when Selena said I would have worn something 84 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 2: different to this date. He was like, oh wait what. 85 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: They hung out again two days later. That's when they 86 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 2: kissed because he realized, oh, she must like me. And 87 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 2: he says they hang out every day they can, and 88 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: that she's his best friend. 89 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: She's very sweet, she's. 90 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 3: Very a new trend where women are kind of shooting 91 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 3: their shot. 92 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: Do you like that for it? Feel free? Famous people? 93 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: That's my name is Fred. How you doing. I'm right here, 94 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: right here every morning you can find me. I like him? Okay, 95 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: I like him. You should, you know, you should feel 96 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: in power. You like a guy, you should say something 97 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: to him. Yeah. I don't know what that stigma is 98 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: about like that. I don't know why women can't approach men. 99 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what you can. I don't know where 100 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: that came from. We had to be the ones to 101 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: do it. Yeah, I mean it might, you know what, 102 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: in some ways we talked about it before, Like trust me, 103 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: the plight of the man is not a plight, but 104 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: compared to many things that women encounter on a daily basis, 105 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: you know, be it physiologically or emotionally, or the way 106 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: that men treat women in some cases. But it might 107 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: it might not be a terrible thing, Kiki, if a 108 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: woman has to hit on a man a time or 109 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: two so you can see what that's like. 110 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 3: I'm hearing a lot of success stories where it's like 111 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,799 Speaker 3: the women are saying, hey, I hit on him first. 112 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 1: No, I like it. It just it might. That is 113 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: one thing. I would say that there are certain things 114 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: about the not the acquisition process, but the courtship process 115 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: that I don't think that women necessarily have ever had. 116 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: Some women have ever had to do, and I think 117 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: it might help. It might help if you maybe had 118 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: to go after a guy and see how that goes 119 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: and see the resistance, or maybe get rejected once or 120 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: twice and just see how that feels. I think, I 121 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: don't know, it might be. It might be a globally 122 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: beneficial thing, you'll think. 123 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 4: So that's a project, a science project. 124 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: Perspective, not that you're you mean, I know you've already 125 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 1: planned your your divorce, but Paulina, but I mean, you know, 126 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: not that you're ever going to be single again, but 127 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: if you were, I don't know, it might help with 128 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: perspective for you to have to if it were like 129 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: it could go either way. 130 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I'm afraid of rejection. But I've given 131 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 4: you guys credit over the years. I'm like, is I 132 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 4: can't go up to a guy at a bar and say, 133 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 4: you know, come here often, Like I'm not going to 134 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 4: do that, you know what I mean. 135 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: That's a great one, but yeah, that's the one that'll 136 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: get them. 137 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 4: I just feel so shy, and I think I am 138 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 4: afraid of rejection and not even that confrontation. And I 139 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 4: know this isn't like a confrontational kind of thing, but 140 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 4: in a way it kind of is. Right I'm approaching you, 141 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 4: imagine and then like trying to hit on you get 142 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 4: your number. I think you guys, I don't. 143 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: I don't think we give men enough credit for that. 144 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: I think it's hard. 145 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 4: It have to be, you know, just because it's no. 146 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: It's all right, you guys. We have enough hard time, 147 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, Like, I'm not trust me. If 148 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: that's a hard thing I have to deal with the demand, 149 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: that's fine. But I just think, you know, I don't know, 150 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: I've heard more critical. It's just it's hard to know, 151 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: Like you can't be creepy. I mean, look, everyone now 152 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: is thinking of an example of a dude who was, 153 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 1: you know, inappropriate or crossed the line or whatever. But 154 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: let's take those out for a second. It's it's it's 155 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: you're putting yourself out there when you do that. You're 156 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: you're vulnerable when you do that, and you're not always 157 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: going to do it perfectly. And again I'm not talking 158 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: about the dudeh walks up and say, you know what 159 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: closes your underwear like you know, which is also a 160 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,359 Speaker 1: good one. But I'm not recommending that at all. I 161 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: just think I don't know, it would be it would 162 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: be interesting if everybody had the perspective of and women 163 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: should feel empowered to ask for what they want from 164 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: a man or a woman or whatever you're into. I 165 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: don't know where that came from, that you weren't supposed to, 166 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: or that it's like uncouth or something.
