Man, rely, 16 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: she's got me thinking about hot dogs and reasonably considering 17 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: calling them glizzies, which is still the worst word ever invented. Glizzies. Glyzzies. Yeah, 18 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: I don't like it. Yeah, that's it. So we were 19 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: talking about how in elementary school, had a friend who 20 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: would just house raw hot dogs for lunch. It was disturbing, 21 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: but I I started doing it because I thought he 22 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: was cool. He was a year older than me. But 23 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 1: then I was like, do I have like as most 24 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,639 Speaker 1: of my body eat cole I at this point because 25 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: I did that for such a long period of my life. 26 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: But turns out, courtesy of Chris Mackling, you're all right 27 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: to just have You don't have to cook some You 28 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: can just eat a raw hot dog in the same 29 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: way that I feel like you should never boil out dog. 30 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: I don't think you should ever eat one raw, but 31 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: you can, but it's gross.

Hell no, why people introduced me to and 33 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: I was like, I don't understand why you're doing this 34 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: because you could pan fry it right, like the way 35 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: you slice them and then you press them through the pants. 36 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: We like crisp on the outside. And listen, I'm not 37 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: about boiling meats.

So Disneyland a few years 144 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 1: ago had these like little snack sized Monte Crystal balls, 145 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: So essentially ham cheese, breaded, fried, and then you would 146 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: dip it in like the sandwich, but molded into a ball. Yeah, 147 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: and they were tiny. It was beautiful. I'm glad that 148 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: was your take exactly. Monte crystals are just so heavy. 149 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: I can't eat the sandwich, but in the ball size 150 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: they're perfect. But they did it for one year. I 151 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 1: haven't done it again. So I'm taking it upon myself 152 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: to find a recipe and make it just for the 153 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: hell of it. So I don't I don't usually fry 154 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: a lot of foods deep fry, so I'm just kind 155 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: of figuring out, like, Okay, should I have bread? Should 156 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: it be like rolled in bread crumbs? Like just how 157 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: to go about it. I have none of the Disney 158 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: moms posted a recipe, yet there's so many of them 159 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: doing like they make the like Disney Mickey Mouse ice 160 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: cream bars at home.

Just it's 164 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: very sorry. Yeah, what's toxic that they just get all 165 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 1: high SCHOOLI clubby, like, oh you you allow your kids 166 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: to do this in the park and I would never 167 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: go to it just I've done that. It's also a 168 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: level of obsessiveness that is sometimes scary, Like did you 169 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: see the lady who every detail of her house is 170 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: a Disney replication? Yeah, like the bathroom, yeah, yeah, yes, 171 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: And she's like, and these are the suns for um 172 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: Tangled and you can see I painted them here along 173 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: the wall. I'm like, ma'am, there's literally nothing in here 174 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: is not a Disney reference. And that's really concerning to me, 175 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: because you should have other things. They a comic book 176 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: stand as a fan, but like, diversify the portfolio just 177 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: a little bit, get like two other fandoms in there. 178 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: Maybe with the obsessed weakness. I love Disney, I don't 179 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 1: have any decor in my house just because like it 180 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: gives up murder vibes. Yes, with something that oh lord, yeah, 181 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: I love it, but I have to walk Away. Here's 182 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: my test. Do they reject the genius of the minions 183 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: like because they're not Disney? Like, do are they Will 184 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: they like not let a Minion in their house because 185 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: or like have Minion art in their house because it's 186 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: not definitely not mixing and matching that on the extreme level. No, 187 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: there's again literally nothing but Disney. I would say it's 188 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: probably like you know, peer one Disney merchandise and then 189 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: I don't know, like World Market for the rest, Like 190 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: that's that's the breakdown, and then only go to like 191 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 1: World Market to get something a Latin themed like that's right. No, 192 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 1: Like like I'm I'm all for a like commitment to 193 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: an aesthetic and like being into like you know, childhood 194 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: whimsy and like art that you really liked as a kid. 195 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: But like to be like not fuck anything that wasn't 196 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: made by this one particular company because they happened to 197 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: acquire it instead of like some other company is just 198 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: seems I don't know. It's like the people who felt 199 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: Betrade they couldn't go to Disney, like at the start 200 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: of the pandemic, and it's like, Okay, you have to 201 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 1: calm down, you have to take a deep breath, because 202 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,320 Speaker 1: literally death and children shouldn't be a common the nation 203 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: we're like aspiring to. That's really terrifying. I do you have. 204 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: I have a friend who, like, she didn't have stable 205 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: housing as a kid, but her parents are always able 206 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: to scrap enough money to go to Disneyland, and so 207 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: now Disney Lands the most consistent memory from her like 208 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: childhood to adult years, and she loves it. But there's 209 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: still boundaries and other fandom. So I'm just saying it's 210 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: the layer of obsessiveness that we really have to divorce 211 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: ourselves from. It's it's too much ladies and gentlemen who 212 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: are into it. Dad who costumes all the dresses, right, daddy, daddy, designer, designer, daddy, 213 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: something like that he has, Yeah, you know life that 214 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 1: looks like a Disney princess. Yes, like listen, mascot skill 215 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: do for real? What do you mean the changing dress 216 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: for Bell? I was like, oh, like she the daughter 217 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: just spins and it's her like regular like peasant dress 218 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 1: to the ball gown and unfolds into the ball gown. 219 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: The skills are off of the charts. But again I worry, Yes, 220 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: I mean that person actually sounds more talented than Walt Disney, Like, yeah, 221 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: what is something you think is overrated? Kim employers. I'm 222 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: a big fan of the sub breddit anti work, and 223 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: I just love seeing like the attraction and movement with 224 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: especially millennials realizing, oh, they really don't give a shit 225 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: about us, Like and that's not carte blanche every single 226 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: boss in the world, but just the thought of we're 227 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: a family in the office, but fuck you, your kids sick, 228 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: I need you to come in. I just think the 229 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: whole concept of the employer, coworker or employee is overrated. 230 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: It needs to change. It all needs to be tossed out, 231 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: and we need to fix it because it's I find 232 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: getting work the idea of what you've done so uh 233 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: inspiring slash terrifying.

Whoa And at the 240 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: time I had undiagnosed a d D and it was 241 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: like it was a stro it was struggle city out there. 242 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: But I do think that it's kind of cool. The 243 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: way the landscape of what a job looks like and 244 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: how people are interacting with it is really fascinating. I 245 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 1: love it. I love like people doing a side hustle 246 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: in a in a healthy way and then being able 247 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: to branch off kind of like what I did.

I do feel 253 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: like that is a trend that we're seeing with a 254 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: lot of our guests as they're coming in and being like, yeah, 255 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: I managed to like put put aside enough money to 256 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: like try and you know, go it, go it without 257 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: a full time employer, and my life has improved. Like 258 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: and it's fears happening on a much larger scale too, 259 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: because the unemployment rate throught the lowest they've been since 260 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: what like sixty five or something crazy like that, and 261 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: then on top of that there's a quote unquote worker shortage. 262 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: It's clear a lot of people are like, I could 263 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: just do this from home or on my own or 264 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: working tandem with my partner and or partners to like, 265 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: you know, get enough income to cover all of us. 266 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: And I man, I really feel like the pandemic made 267 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: us more community oriented as the people who are like, 268 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: what if we just took care of each other and 269 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: figured that out first? And I think that's so beautiful. 270 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: Any place that says they have a worker shortage, I 271 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: believe it's terrible management and a toxic environment. So I've 272 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 1: just adapted not to go to those places. Any place 273 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 1: that has a sign says we're incredibly short staffed, they 274 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: don't even have to be pissy about it. I just 275 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: know people don't want to work there because of the 276 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: people that are running the business. I do love the 277 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: pizzy signs though, like we don't want any cry babies, 278 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 1: has no personal issues, would never take a phone call, 279 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: even an emergency. A thousand percent dedicated to this minimum 280 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: wage job, like you gotta hill, you gotta if you're 281 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: paying them a wage, Like you know what you're getting 282 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: if you know what's happening here, these people are just 283 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: came here for this little bit of money and to 284 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: survive to the next day. Leave them alone. Serious, And 285 00:17:55,520 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: I also feel like it is it's being under rated 286 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: as people think about like what's happening with worker shortages 287 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: that people are like now capitalism and like market forces 288 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: have invaded every single aspect of our life. I think 289 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: this is the third time I've talked about this in 290 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: like four episodes, but it just like you here so 291 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: many complaints of people like what what social media, what 292 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: our phones like due to us, And I do think 293 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 1: like that is all connected, like the fact that we 294 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: are constantly in a market based like what where are 295 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 1: our attention has been monetized and turned into like a 296 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: capitalists like property, and then we like our interactions with 297 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: our loved ones have been like are are being mediated 298 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 1: by like these multibillion dollar corporations and manipulated like intentionally 299 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,719 Speaker 1: by these multibillion dollar corporations. Like I think that is 300 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: like when you don't have the humane in and like 301 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: actually human context of life that we have for so long, 302 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: it becomes unbearable to like put up with a lot 303 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: of this ship that people were putting up with for 304 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: a long time in America. Yeah, it reminds me of 305 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 1: like early on in the pandemic when you saw all 306 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,199 Speaker 1: these commercials from big companies saying we care, We're in 307 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: it together from now more than ever.

But telling off an asshole, like I 310 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: think everyone deserves a moment in their life in person 311 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: to say to someone's face, you're a jerk. You're deserve 312 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,919 Speaker 1: what's on your plate, and I'm sick of it. And 313 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: that's how I got fired.

They have 331 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 1: to come back and face this person daily who then 332 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 1: feels the need to not only dislike your work with them, 333 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 1: belittle you for it exactly. Yeah, it's very satisfying to 334 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: be like, never again, bro, never, I'm gonna tell you 335 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: all of the things you want. I didn't mind a 336 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: text message. I'm not as brave as you yet. It's 337 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: hard for me to say things and I'm a very 338 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: quiet person like around people. So when this happened, I 339 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: literally texted him my husband. I'm like, I think I 340 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: might get fired. I just stood up to him, and 341 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 1: it's it's just so relieving. But like I stayed there 342 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: because Jack, when you mentioned my husband was sick, we 343 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: relied on my health insurance. Like, my my husband almost 344 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: died of COVID eight months ago. So if I stayed 345 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,360 Speaker 1: and dealt with that bullshit, because literally our lives were 346 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: on the line, and fortunately we've worked out health insurance 347 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:08,239 Speaker 1: with me doing the comic. But it's just insane what 348 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: people have to go through and having that moment of 349 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: like fuck you, fuck the man, I'm out peace. It's great. 350 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 1: So everyone deserves it at one point in their lives. Yeah, 351 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 1: we've we've mentioned before that the theory that that isn't 352 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: a theory. It's the fact that the reason that the 353 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: Democrats would never give Americans universal health care is because 354 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: they rely on that to keep people in jobs they 355 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: don't like. Like that's the economy relies on the threat 356 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: of starvation or you know, not being able to you know, 357 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: getting put into bankruptcy because of an illness like that. 358 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: That's part of the system, and that's like part of 359 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: the the way that America like extracts in humane amounts 360 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 1: of work from from people who just want to live. 361 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: I would totally buy into that conspiracy, like it just 362 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 1: it makes total sense, keeping people under under their foot basically. Yeah, 363 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:17,239 Speaker 1: what a brutal reality we're living through, right, all right, Well, 364 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll come back and 365 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: talk about why nobody wants to fund Republicans and we're back. 366 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: And so ever, since Trump's election, there's been a lot 367 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 1: of pulling around quantifying the percentage of people who would 368 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: or would not have sex with a Republican. It's always 369 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: sort of the same thing. People that are on the 370 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 1: left are not as likely to want to be with 371 00:23:55,480 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: someone that has a antithetical worldview, while conservatives are willing 372 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: to like bang anyone. I guess is like the general 373 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: thesis here is like yeah, sure, fucket like, which I 374 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 1: don't know that the Republicans seem to think that this 375 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 1: makes them more accepting and like open minded, which kind 376 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: of misunderstands the whole situation. I have so many questions, 377 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 1: starting with what conversation leads to these studies. No, Brocky 378 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: totally banging democrats like you couldn't. They just wouldn't have 379 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 1: sex to you, okay, but I would, okay, but your 380 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: choice too doesn't negate their willingness to you know, it 381 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: seems a foolish question. I don't don't because I don't 382 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: understand the bottom line results of this and what we're 383 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 1: supposed to do with this information. And also anyone with 384 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: a brain could have told you that, because most I 385 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: feel like I feel confident in saying most Democratic equipmen 386 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: would not sleep with the Republican man because they don't 387 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 1: want to die. Right, This is pretty much to be 388 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: getting little end of it, Like I just don't want 389 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: to die. I wouldn't be welcomed here. You would want 390 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: to get into some weird race, this kink that I 391 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: don't want to engage in. Like it's one of those 392 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: like situations as weird to me that the Republicans don't 393 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: recognize that yet they don't think they're racists, So maybe 394 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: I don't know much about anything. I think it's honestly 395 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 1: for Democratic women, like if I was to fuck a Republican, 396 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: I have to actively recognize that, Oh he thinks lesser 397 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 1: of me, and it's not your self hate to Republican. Yeah, 398 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: but in doing that, you're being closed minded to his 399 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: point of view. My willingness to have sex with you 400 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 1: isn't the same as my willingness to engage in conversation 401 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 1: with you. It's mad to be like, you won't let 402 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: me be intimate with you. It's like you're terrifying. You 403 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: would force me to carry that baby to full term, 404 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: You jerk, get out of here. I have dildos more 405 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:05,239 Speaker 1: politically correct than most Republicans. So the latest poll was 406 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: released over in Axios. It pulled college students nationwide in 407 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: November of this year. And this is all being framed 408 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 1: as I thought the left was tolerant, which ignores that 409 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: tolerance means that you express your openness through not discriminating, 410 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: which is discrimination is the very basis of the entire 411 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: modern and historic Republican point of view, since you know, 412 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: for most of the twentieth century. But yeah, so women 413 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: are more likely than men to take a strong partisan 414 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: stance in their personal choices. I wonder if it has 415 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,199 Speaker 1: anything to do with what you guys are just mentioning about, 416 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: you know, differences of opinion around you know, your right 417 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 1: to have a say of what you do with your 418 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 1: own body. They found forty one percent of women would 419 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: go on a date with someone who voted for the 420 00:26:54,800 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: opposing candidate compared to sixty seven percent of men of women, 421 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 1: and would work for someone who voted for the other 422 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: candidate of men, and just sixty of women compared to 423 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: of men would shop at or support the business of 424 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 1: someone of the other party. I feel like that's convoluted 425 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: because you don't know everyone you're buying to stop it 426 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 1: husually think you if their opinions were publicly displayed and 427 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 1: we're I don't know, actively harming our community and you 428 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: were very aware of it. Yes, of course you would 429 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: not shop there, but otherwise you're you're just trying to 430 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: get whatever it is you're trying to get and get 431 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: on with your day. But I also feel this is 432 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: from the perspective of the way Republicans are sort of 433 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: projecting themselves into media right now. There's this idea of 434 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:46,120 Speaker 1: like we're being left out. We can't be in the mainstream. 435 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: I don't understand how you can be. I'm against government 436 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: and frankly individual liberties, and I want everyone to carry 437 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: a gun. I don't care whether you feel safe, but 438 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 1: also please include me and all of your activities. Why 439 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: am I not invited to the picnic? Why are you 440 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 1: afraid of me? It's such as you boiled the hot dogs, 441 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: damage the hot dogs, biled the hot dogs, and it's 442 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 1: nasty and foul. You did not use the correct seasoning. 443 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: All of your best recipes come from the black people 444 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: you used to own. Like it's weird. Get out of here. Yeah, 445 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 1: I don't I truly do not understand how you can 446 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: want to be so antisocial but also be involved in 447 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: the culture at the same time, Like lions have to 448 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: be drowned somewhere. It's almost like they're wildly entitled and 449 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: have no sense of the fucking damage and harm that 450 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: they're horrifying beliefs. Cause I just read an article that 451 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 1: was all about what it was like inside Germany after 452 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: they lost World War Two and just like the you know, 453 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: coming to terms with themselves as as Nazis, and it 454 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: was very slow process that involved a lot of cognitive 455 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: dissonance and people just not being willing to recognize what 456 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: they did, kind of the same way we did with slavery. 457 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: I really feel like it's exactly the same. Sure, there 458 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: was like but if you think about everything happens before 459 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: the launch of Jim Crow, it's like, oh, black people 460 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: are free. That's sort of terrifying. Um, keep them in 461 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: their own communities, just we'll just like gently exclude them 462 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 1: from everything, and uh, you know what, you can pay 463 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: them two dollars, it's fine, Like really really lower that 464 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: minimum wage so that we can keep them at reasonable 465 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: prices and we don't tank our economy and then it 466 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: was like, oh they God, they're accumulating wealth, cannot have. 467 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: We do not like them living better than us. Put 468 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: on your hoods, burn their towns down, get rid of it. 469 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: The law. People don't like that we are breaking the law. 470 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: Got it, Jim Crow laws. Now that is legal and 471 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: it's fine. The racism is over. What are you talking about? 472 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: It's such a weird I guess as we as people 473 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: and I just human beings in general just are not 474 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: comfortable accepting our roles in awful things. And our our 475 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: best defense to quote uncore protect ourselves is just distance 476 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: yourself as much as possible, as quickly as possible from 477 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: what you've done, but also don't change anything because we 478 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: sort of like how things are. There was a Twitter thread, 479 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: i'm wanna say yesterday or maybe a few days ago, 480 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: where a black family was selling their home in San 481 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: Francisco and they got appraised and it came in super low, 482 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 1: but they had an odd feeling about it, so they 483 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 1: had their white friend step in and redecorate a little 484 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: bit by changing photos, had it reappraised again, went up 485 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: like doubled essentially. Yeah, and a lot of black people 486 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 1: are doing this now. Just call a white friend. You 487 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: should everyone should have one. You need one good white friend. 488 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: They can come bail you out when things are sticky. 489 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: I like to keep white ladies around, particularly once that 490 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: can cry on cue. Um. So he was ready for me, honey, Like, 491 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: let's do it. And she's a good person and we 492 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: don't hurt her. So I feel safe in large spaces. Yeah, 493 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: that's it's it's chippy. There's a different article today about 494 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: a woman who can pass because she doesn't try. She 495 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: just can. People don't recognize that she's black, and she 496 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: lives in an affluent white neighborhood. And she just wrote, 497 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: like talked about all of the things people have said 498 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: to her because they don't know she's black. And like, 499 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: my favorite one is like why do you have a 500 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter sign? Like that you're just out here 501 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: killing themselves. Man, ma'am exhausting. Jesus Christ exhausting. What a 502 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: great time to be alive, truly, truly. Yeah, I mean 503 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: America has been bad, a bad place to be alive 504 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: for a lot of people. It's just like I think 505 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,719 Speaker 1: we're now coming to terms with it. I just think 506 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 1: every generation has to continually come to terms with it. Though, right, 507 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 1: especially because we do a lot to shield our children 508 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: from terrible things for good reasons. You should be able 509 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: to have a childithood and I have to deal with 510 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: this stuff. But then suddenly it's like, okay, so we're 511 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: just gonna talk about slavery. They did what my successors. 512 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: I would be there, crap that sucks, okay, and I'm 513 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: gonna talk to you about how we tried to extinguish 514 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: an entire race of people when we first got here. 515 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,479 Speaker 1: What that's awful. I thought we enjoyed Thanksgiving. That's not 516 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: how that actually went out. We had to like problestantly 517 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 1: go through this process of unlearning things that we've learned. 518 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: And I think, m it's valid because it's something way 519 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: it could stay fresh. And I'm uncomfortable. Like Barry Jenkins 520 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: just did this great series on Amazon called Underground, and 521 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: he spoke a lot about how he's like, I didn't 522 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 1: want to dwell in it. But at the same time, 523 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: I can't ignore sleep. I can't not looking in the 524 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: face and address it directly. You like my ancestors survived that, 525 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: I have to go look at it and stay in 526 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: these places and try to feel and come to terms 527 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 1: with what happened. I think it sucks, a really sucks, 528 00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: but I also think it's vital. Yeah, Like so this 529 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: article Germany went from they're kind of national, like the 530 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: zeitgeist opinion was that like their loss in World War 531 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 1: Two and all the you know, revelations around the Holocaust 532 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: were a part of a Jewish conspiracy. They called it. 533 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: American financial interests had like put together this conspiracy. But 534 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 1: as we talked about on an episode last week, like 535 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: Germany has become you know, not they're not perfect, but 536 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: they are a model of like a nation that has 537 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 1: actually accounted for, like come to terms with at least 538 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: and is trying to pay reparations and like do actual 539 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: things to to deal with their past. So there there 540 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 1: is a a path to it. It's just a long 541 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: and painful and fucking brutal one, but like that, the 542 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,959 Speaker 1: work needs to be done. My roommate, well, she actually 543 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: just moved back to Many. Her grandfather was literally a Nazi, 544 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 1: And the way she talked to me about it, they say, 545 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: we not you never talked about the individual families because 546 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 1: there is that great shame about just the involvement. So 547 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: it is talked and still uncomfortable, but it's like we 548 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 1: all fucked up and we're going to talk about it. 549 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 1: And it was more of a community change, and you 550 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: just don't talk about the individuals because it's just she 551 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: said it like it ate her up inside, like how 552 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: could my grandfather be such such a terrible human? You know? Um, 553 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: I wonder if America could ever get to that. I 554 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 1: feel like, no know what I want to believe, But 555 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: I also feel like we're again just as a country, 556 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: just like especially for last year, was any indication, you know, 557 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: there was that giant swell of like, we are not 558 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 1: gonna let this happen anymore, and we're gonna higher so 559 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: many black people and we're going to like put some 560 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 1: respect on indigenous people's names and it's going to be 561 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 1: changed forever. And then this year you see a ton 562 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 1: of black freelancers talking about how projects that got picked 563 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: up suddenly dropped, agents just not calling back, like it 564 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:19,279 Speaker 1: was just a complete abandonment within a year. And I 565 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: think that's sort of our future trajectory. It's just kind 566 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: of like these small swells of like, oh, we don't 567 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 1: want to be that, but we're legitimately never going to 568 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: change anything. But please don't think of us that way. 569 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: It's just I think we prefer that contradictory state of existence. Yeah, 570 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 1: I mean, something will have to change because to this 571 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: point it's been just a steady rhythm of people coming 572 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: up against the reality of America's history and the reality 573 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: of America's present, and then there is a white backlash, 574 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: and you know that we're seeing that. We saw that 575 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: in January six, we'll see that probably in election, which 576 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: certainly I'm like as pessimistic about is I think I've 577 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:07,800 Speaker 1: ever been, And yeah, I just don't. So something will 578 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: need to change, alright, just real quick, Well we'll dig 579 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 1: in a little bit more on the Kellogg's and the details. 580 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: Just don't eat any fucking Kellogg's. Don't buy anything from Kellogg's. There. 581 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 1: The fucking worst, they work force their workers to endorse 582 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: seventy two to eighty four hour work weeks and over 583 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,959 Speaker 1: time was mandated, and employees struggled to even get time 584 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: off for funerals, some of them working up to a 585 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,800 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty days without a day off. Their CEO 586 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 1: makes twelve million dollars million, fired literally everybody who was striking, 587 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 1: which is not only illegal but just morally reprehensible. We've 588 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: already gone through this with factories before. It's completely unnecessary. 589 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,399 Speaker 1: You guys can afford to pay workers, and I think 590 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,280 Speaker 1: that's really the thing we want to drive home today. 591 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: They can afford it. This is not going to bankrupt Kellogg's. 592 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: They will be okay. The price of your cereal doesn't 593 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: even need to change that much. You can still avoid 594 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 1: these not too expensive but sort of overpriced. If you've 595 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 1: ever looked at a brand name like these tastes the same. 596 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: It's been evil since day one, like well, like corn 597 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:19,240 Speaker 1: flakes were supposed to cure the masturbation urges of people, 598 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,760 Speaker 1: like the so bland you won't want to have sex? 599 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 1: Where is the logs evil day one? This is even 600 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:34,720 Speaker 1: worth just one person's just diseased brain that just fucking 601 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: exploded all over like our entire grocery store shelves, And 602 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 1: just like the entire history of the twentieth century, these 603 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 1: bottom of the barrel fox they gave their workers cookies 604 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 1: during a pandemic. They're like the job, guys, have a 605 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 1: cookie that you probably made. They're probably spread cookies. No man, 606 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 1: But to your point, Joel, they made four billion dollars 607 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 1: in profits years profit, not like they made four millions 608 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 1: billion dollars in revenue and like a struggling to say, 609 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: but they made four billion dollars in profits. This goes 610 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 1: back to you know that everybody's talking about inflation and 611 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 1: how like inflations out of control, and they're blaming these 612 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 1: like economic indicators as though like paying people or like 613 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: people getting money from the government. They're like, well, that's 614 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 1: what it is. As if first of all, as if 615 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 1: economics is not a complete bullshit social science, but also 616 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: as if like the economy is like some physics based 617 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 1: formula that can't be affected. And the truth is, these 618 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: corporations are making larger profits than they've ever made. You 619 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 1: are seeing that in the way that the stock market 620 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 1: is reacting. The stock market is doing great because they 621 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: have just changed what people are like willing to accept 622 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:57,880 Speaker 1: their like realizing our ship, we can like raise the 623 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: prices and that's gonna be really really good for our 624 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 1: profits and therefore our stock prices. And then they get 625 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 1: this ship covered in the mainstream media as if it's 626 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 1: the fucking striking worker's fault, and like that is the 627 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: narrative that you hear that it's like the fault of 628 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: the labor class for prices going up, and it's like, 629 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: how how the fuck are are we like regurgitating this bullshirt? Well, okay, 630 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:35,919 Speaker 1: so circling back to hot dogs, Okay, the whole point 631 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 1: of the book the Jungle. I think exposure day on 632 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 1: workers just like losing lens to meet grinders at this 633 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 1: smeat factory and there was outwroar, not because the workers 634 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: were being maimed, it was because I got a finger 635 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: in my fucking hot dog. Like that. Until the public 636 00:39:55,640 --> 00:40:00,040 Speaker 1: as a whole, as us as a community, really it 637 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 1: piste off, it's just going to keep going. And I 638 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: think it's happening slowly, mostly because you're seeing it across 639 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 1: multiple different types of what was working for different types 640 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: of workers. Essentially you have farm workers, factory workers, you 641 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 1: can look at the entertainment field, you can look at 642 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 1: even sports, like those guys are constantly trying to make 643 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 1: sure you see what the w n b A is 644 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,400 Speaker 1: trying to achieve when a lot of their contract negotiations 645 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 1: and things like that. I think as the whole, we're 646 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,359 Speaker 1: sort of come to this conclusion, particularly coming off of 647 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 1: essentially twenty years of corporations just being too big to fail, 648 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 1: and like, you know, we have CEO screwing us over 649 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 1: and then getting the lightest of sentences and parachute salaries 650 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 1: to see them out the door. I think people are 651 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 1: getting there, but they're in America. We're not taught. Are 652 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: what powers we have? Early enough? Right, it's not And 653 00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:00,320 Speaker 1: by the time you need to use those powers almost 654 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: seems like a fever dream. You're like, how would that 655 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 1: even work? It's so foreign to me. I've never witnessed 656 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 1: anyone doing it. I don't have a history of my 657 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: family trying to achieve these things. I think where we've 658 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: seen a lot of work organization are things that don't 659 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: exist anymore. We think a lot about like rail workers 660 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 1: and coal workers and pipe fitters and all those guys 661 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: are sort of locked in and good to go. And still, 662 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 1: you know, bringing in family, it's a smaller subsect. So 663 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna see it happen, especially the more 664 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 1: people like Kellogg's decided to do things like hire an 665 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: entire new tier people with out the ability to ever 666 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 1: advance in the company. They're essentially hiring people now on me, 667 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: like you'll be a factory worker for life, never expect 668 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 1: to see management, never a raise for what coming here 669 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 1: work until you drop in and leave. We see it 670 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 1: in the um. What's going on with like chicken farms 671 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 1: and stuff. The way those guys are treated and literally 672 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 1: peeing in bottles next to the food they're slaughtering. It's dangerous. 673 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: COVID is rampant. Fair. I really do feel like we're 674 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:07,839 Speaker 1: on a wave of worker action right now, and they are, 675 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 1: like you said, I mean, they're the reason that that 676 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: is going to happen because prices, every every economic indicator 677 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:20,239 Speaker 1: has gone up except for wages, Like wages have stayed 678 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: stagnant for fucking like twenty five years now, Like minimum 679 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 1: wage has stayed stagnant for like decades, and they're just basically, 680 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: you know, riding it until the wheels fall off. They're 681 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: just like, yeah, we're gonna see how far we can 682 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 1: push this thing. And as the two thousand eight economic 683 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 1: crisis showed us, we're not the ones who are going 684 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 1: to get left holding the bag. So we'll just keep 685 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 1: on abusing the system until it spits out its last fucking, 686 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,280 Speaker 1: you know, chunk of change for us, and then we'll 687 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: you know, go live on our island in the Pacific 688 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,399 Speaker 1: that we bought. You want to know, Okay, So here's 689 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 1: my theory. They're just waiting for the robot labor force. 690 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 1: There are for technolog leogy to catch up to it, 691 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,120 Speaker 1: and I really do think they're like to keep cost 692 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: down as much as possible. We will buy an entire 693 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 1: robot labor for us. It's a one time g with 694 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 1: some technical updates here and there, and we'll be good 695 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,439 Speaker 1: for at least the next what twenty years? You could 696 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,399 Speaker 1: probably run on that tech depending on where you're at 697 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 1: and and how tactile the robotic structure is, you know, 698 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 1: whatever you needge to view, how fast isn't working, how 699 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: quickly doesn't break down? Hopefully it's not a McDonald's Trevor 700 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: was ice cream donald breaking down, which, honestly, I really 701 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 1: feel like if we want to get tech people, listen 702 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 1: up getting on on this theory right now. Just start 703 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 1: making terrible machines for these companies so that they have 704 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: no choice and and and make sure you write in 705 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 1: your contract you can't use anyone else and we're the 706 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,360 Speaker 1: only ones who can fix it. And then higher a 707 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: bunch of workers, you know, And that's how we're going 708 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 1: that's how we beat the corporations. Yeah, that is literally 709 00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 1: what the what that company did? Who made there who 710 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: made their ice cream machines. But unfortunately they like somebody 711 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,920 Speaker 1: else made a thing to fix it, and they suited 712 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 1: that company. They're like no, no, no, no, no, you 713 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:10,400 Speaker 1: can't here. Yeah. So I don't know. I think they 714 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 1: were like making billions. As depressing as it all is, 715 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 1: I'm I don't think I'm jaded enough yet, because I 716 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 1: do think we're on the cusp of a revolution or 717 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:25,919 Speaker 1: change with workers, especially gen Z. They do not take 718 00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 1: ship from I love them to death. I was at 719 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 1: Starbucks this morning and this this kid, he had to 720 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 1: be like nineteen, just goes in with roller skates. He 721 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 1: got his one earring in just no fox given love 722 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:45,840 Speaker 1: him and I just they. I think they're paying attention 723 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 1: and listening and they're not going to let themselves be 724 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 1: treated like trash anymore. Yeah. So I'm really hoping that 725 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: before the robots come in, we get gen Z to 726 00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: either hack the system and overhaul it, because yeah, I 727 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: think it's take all of us. I don't I don't 728 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: want to leave it to just the kids. We're all here, 729 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:09,400 Speaker 1: we're all doing it. That's true. Kids, you inspire me 730 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: so much. Thank you for being your beautiful, unique sells 731 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,239 Speaker 1: and not taking ship. Thank you for reminding me that 732 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 1: I don't need to take ship. But also super here 733 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 1: with you. Just ready if it's a good site, because 734 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,800 Speaker 1: oh it's good, it's gonna be a doozy of an effort. 735 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's also as the baby Boomers and 736 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:32,320 Speaker 1: silent generation, I guess and Joe Biden and Donald Trump's 737 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 1: case like mercifully die off, like we hopefully like there 738 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 1: will be a dual action of younger pro socialists generations 739 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 1: taking over as like this just wildly out of touch 740 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 1: and pathologically selfish generation disappears. That is believe so many 741 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: another brand of the same use just being like, oh 742 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: that seems like the life right there. I'm right emilate 743 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 1: that to a t. We gotta switch those guys minds 744 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,440 Speaker 1: before they get too old and too empower Yeah, all right, 745 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll come back and talk 746 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:10,319 Speaker 1: about couch Guy. Hopefully get to uh talk about some 747 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:25,120 Speaker 1: erotic thrillers. And we're back and couch Guy, who we 748 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:31,719 Speaker 1: might all remember from the TikTok video where his girlfriend 749 00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 1: came to surprise him. His long distance girlfriend came to 750 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: surprise him at college. The video showed her like showing 751 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:43,719 Speaker 1: up him being surprised, getting up from the couch and 752 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 1: giving her a hug. And this kicked off a level 753 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:54,480 Speaker 1: of just analysis, frame by frame, just deep diving into 754 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 1: you know, body language expert analysis, which is a made 755 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 1: up thing that the mainstream media loves to pretend to exists. 756 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:08,160 Speaker 1: That people were highly suspects of this couch guy because 757 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 1: he did not seem excited enough to see his girlfriend, 758 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:16,279 Speaker 1: his long distance girlfriend in the ten seconds. I think 759 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:18,760 Speaker 1: it was like one of the shortest. I couldn't believe 760 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:22,280 Speaker 1: when I finally saw the video that everybody was talking about. 761 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 1: It was insane, Like I wanted to talk a lot, 762 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:31,760 Speaker 1: and it was just like two weeks of couch guy content. Honestly, 763 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 1: to me, he just he looked stoned the whole reason 764 00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,040 Speaker 1: why he was slow to get up. But it just 765 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,680 Speaker 1: all the videos on TikTok like it was a vile hashtag. 766 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:49,879 Speaker 1: And she even made merch the girlfriend. It was crazy, Yeah, 767 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 1: make that money while you can't. You know this is 768 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:53,799 Speaker 1: gonna last ten seconds. You said, let me get some 769 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 1: coin real quick. That's a vacation. I love entrepreneurship. It's beautiful. 770 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 1: I wonder how much Britney Spears case has to do 771 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: with this sort of surgeon. We've seen an internet sleuping 772 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,719 Speaker 1: because I don't know if you guys remember or for 773 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 1: the steners who maybe don't know, like a fans like Britney, 774 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 1: if you're not okay, wear a yellow T shirt And 775 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 1: the next day she's wearing yellow T shirt on her 776 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: Instagram and really like bold about it, like, yo, this 777 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 1: is my yellow shirt, ha ha. And then it sort 778 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 1: of evolves in like Britney's really in trouble, we have 779 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:27,799 Speaker 1: to help her. And Brittany was in trouble, she was 780 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,280 Speaker 1: not in a good way and she really didn't need help. 781 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,920 Speaker 1: And I think it's interesting. I just wonder that. And 782 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 1: Georgia and Karen for my favorite murder or the serial 783 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:42,799 Speaker 1: podcast has really brought this boom in true crime. There's 784 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,120 Speaker 1: even a game now that you can play, which I 785 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 1: forget the name of it right now, but essentially it 786 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 1: allows you to play being a detective. But all the 787 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 1: money you put into this game goes into trying to 788 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 1: solve cold cases. And there's a lot of people who 789 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:02,080 Speaker 1: feel empower it around this idea of like oh, as 790 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,920 Speaker 1: like again, as a community, we can connect do what 791 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,960 Speaker 1: the police, who a lot of us are against, can't 792 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 1: do and solve these crimes. But I do think that 793 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:13,960 Speaker 1: people have to keep in mind that they're amateurs and 794 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,279 Speaker 1: them for there are other real people on the other 795 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:19,320 Speaker 1: sides of these questions, and you could do a ton 796 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 1: of damage digging through someone's personal life, trying or blowing 797 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:26,600 Speaker 1: them up like they did couch Guy, or you know, 798 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:31,359 Speaker 1: like basically trying to stick. Eventually, the only goal is like, oh, well, 799 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 1: we'll send the police in because we don't have any 800 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 1: power in this situation and you've never met these people 801 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 1: and you're not an actual detective. If you don't really 802 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 1: know what you're doing, it's very messy. Yeah, there are 803 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:45,560 Speaker 1: these examples that kind of pick up speed, like caused 804 00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,000 Speaker 1: this trend to pick up speed, Like Gabby Petito was 805 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 1: also one. I hadn't realized this, but our producer Becca 806 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 1: New Producer shout Out New producer bec Arounds put this 807 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 1: story and was pointing out that like that was an 808 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 1: example where people were like, something's wrong here when she 809 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: went missing and we're like analyzing the previous videos and 810 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 1: something was wrong. But then there are examples like Sabrina Prator, 811 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:14,720 Speaker 1: who is a thirty four year old contractor and trans 812 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:17,959 Speaker 1: woman who went viral in November after posting a video 813 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,920 Speaker 1: over self dancing in a basement that was mid renovation 814 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,760 Speaker 1: and people jumped on it and we're like bad vibes. 815 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:28,439 Speaker 1: There were like these transphobic comparisons to Buffalo Bill from 816 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 1: the Sounds of the Lambs, and people's started to speculate 817 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,879 Speaker 1: that she was a serial killer and just it got 818 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:41,680 Speaker 1: very like dark and was based on nothing. The couch 819 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 1: guy thing. You know, this guy writes pretty well, either 820 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:49,759 Speaker 1: because he's telling the truth or he's a master manipulator. 821 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:54,720 Speaker 1: We don't know. Yeah, I think that's probably the answer, 822 00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:57,640 Speaker 1: is that he was a great editor. But you know 823 00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:01,319 Speaker 1: they where these things just get away, like they take 824 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 1: on a life of their own. There were people like 825 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 1: waiting outside of his room. There were people like sliding 826 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:10,520 Speaker 1: notes under his door. There were oh yeah, it was 827 00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 1: very scary, like yeah, like I understand the community wanting 828 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:19,319 Speaker 1: to help solve like Brittany being in trouble or a 829 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:23,240 Speaker 1: murdered instagramm er, but the dude, the speculation was literally 830 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,759 Speaker 1: he might be cheating on his girlfriend that it does 831 00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:34,360 Speaker 1: not need that assistance, yeah, or comment that's not your business. Yeah, 832 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: take it to a group chat people talking out there, 833 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 1: like yeah, giving the internet, it's it's a wild tool. 834 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,799 Speaker 1: We're still raining it in, We're still figuring out how 835 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 1: to use it for its its best intentions. And this 836 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 1: is this like goes back. This has long been one 837 00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 1: of humanity's like biggest kind of misconceptions and like blind 838 00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:01,640 Speaker 1: spots when it comes to how we interact with crime. 839 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:07,600 Speaker 1: Is you know, the police will disregard someone's testimony, will 840 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:10,480 Speaker 1: be like, ah, she's making it up. If they're not 841 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:13,719 Speaker 1: like if they're not playing the role that they have 842 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 1: seen in movies of the victim of this crime. Like 843 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: I was just listening to the last podcast on the 844 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:24,920 Speaker 1: Left show was like doing the Lizzie Borden murder. Is 845 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:32,319 Speaker 1: that her name? Yeah, it was only nineteen wax first 846 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 1: of all, but the police, because she was so distraught, 847 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:40,320 Speaker 1: shot her up with morphine and then gave her powdered 848 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:44,839 Speaker 1: caffeine before before questioning her about it. And then we're 849 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 1: like she was so like flat, we like don't trust her, 850 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:51,439 Speaker 1: which she probably did. Do it, but like still it's 851 00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:55,800 Speaker 1: like this this thing like it's happened with sexual assault victims. 852 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 1: There was a serial rapist who was getting away with 853 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,480 Speaker 1: it for a long time because is a young woman 854 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 1: who like reported it her Even her mom was like, 855 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 1: I think she's making it up because she's not like 856 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,799 Speaker 1: crying enough. And then finally like the d n a 857 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:15,799 Speaker 1: proofd she wasn't making it up. But it's we we 858 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 1: just really need to like take our personal like expectations 859 00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,239 Speaker 1: out of it when it comes to like we are 860 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 1: not good at judging, like the the whole thing of 861 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 1: late instinct and like I have a like I have 862 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 1: an internal lie detector. You do not, Like you do 863 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 1: not have that. You know, the best police officers in 864 00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:37,239 Speaker 1: the world do not have that. The thing about you know, 865 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:39,439 Speaker 1: you can tell by where they're looking in the room, 866 00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 1: like if they look up to the right, they're making 867 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:45,839 Speaker 1: it up. That is bullshit. Like every everything that we 868 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:50,200 Speaker 1: claim that has ever been claimed Sherlock Holmes was not 869 00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 1: a real guy or not in any of the senses 870 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 1: that you want him to be a real guy. So 871 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,480 Speaker 1: you know, you trust your instincts, like to like you know, 872 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 1: if you're in danger, and like always be safe. But 873 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:06,680 Speaker 1: when it comes to like I've caught this person or 874 00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 1: I think this person is lying, like you'r do not 875 00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:13,200 Speaker 1: do not trust your instincts, You're you don't know ship 876 00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:19,680 Speaker 1: I think, yes, yeah, alright, do you want to talk 877 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:24,400 Speaker 1: erotic thrillers? I do want to. We're at an hour though, okay, 878 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:27,360 Speaker 1: where I'm so torn do what do we want to 879 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:29,359 Speaker 1: get into it? What do you guys think? I think 880 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 1: we have to Alright, well, we can keep it short. 881 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 1: We can keep it short. Yeah, okay, so listen, Ben 882 00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:37,120 Speaker 1: Affleck and ended to arms. They had a new movie 883 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,360 Speaker 1: called deep Water coming out. It was scheduled for release 884 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 1: in January, which, if you know anything about movies, do 885 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,399 Speaker 1: you understand immediately means it might not be so great. Yes, 886 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:49,319 Speaker 1: this may not be a movie of quality. That's where 887 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:52,560 Speaker 1: we dump are bad movies January Separy, and we might 888 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:54,719 Speaker 1: sprinkle one in March if we have too many movies 889 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:58,239 Speaker 1: lated for the year. That's that's literally how Hollywood has 890 00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:02,720 Speaker 1: worked since the dawn of the summer blockbuster. Okay. Randall's 891 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 1: on the Internet are concerned that j Lo has used 892 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:11,680 Speaker 1: her her incredible powers and connections throughout the universe essentially 893 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:15,760 Speaker 1: to kill this movie because yes, Anna and Ben dated. 894 00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 1: I think this is going to probably get pushed back. 895 00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:22,800 Speaker 1: Maybe there are so many streaming services it will probably 896 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,480 Speaker 1: pop up there because people are gonna want to see 897 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:28,919 Speaker 1: Ben and Anna in a movie where she might be, 898 00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:32,440 Speaker 1: you know, playing a crazy person. It's a psychological thriller. 899 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:37,440 Speaker 1: It's directed by a woman. It's set in like nineteen fifties. 900 00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,759 Speaker 1: It's people will watch just to hate watch. I think 901 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:42,799 Speaker 1: you're just trying to figure out where to put it. 902 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:46,400 Speaker 1: Everyone's gonna be fine and make money. So it's about 903 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:50,799 Speaker 1: an open marriage where she doesn't like him anymore. He's like, 904 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,880 Speaker 1: all right, you can have as many, you know, lovers 905 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,640 Speaker 1: as you want, and then like those lovers start ending 906 00:55:56,719 --> 00:56:00,360 Speaker 1: up dead. So I think the plot is like that 907 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:03,880 Speaker 1: he might be a cold blooded cereal killer or maybe 908 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:05,759 Speaker 1: you know, you might be right, but that that is 909 00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:09,360 Speaker 1: the first bread that I've gotten. Like the summary, she 910 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:13,360 Speaker 1: it seems like it might be. It's okay. Rondic thrillers 911 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 1: are trying to make a comeback right now. Paul Verhoeven, 912 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 1: who did Basic Instinct and is a pig, decide I'm 913 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:24,560 Speaker 1: gonna make some movies he if you guys don't know 914 00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:28,280 Speaker 1: the story, there's a famous scene in that movie where 915 00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:31,840 Speaker 1: there's a famous scene where Sharon stone On crosses her legs. 916 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:36,120 Speaker 1: You can see her vagina right instinct. Yes, it was 917 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:40,480 Speaker 1: supposed to be a shot where it was more suggestive. 918 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:42,920 Speaker 1: So she wore white panties, which would essentially allow for 919 00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:45,720 Speaker 1: either a blending into the skirt or create a line 920 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 1: with the camera that's like, okay, we shouldn't we need 921 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 1: to push up a little bit. You weren't supposed to 922 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:53,239 Speaker 1: see anything. She didn't know, but he was like, yo, 923 00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:55,879 Speaker 1: can you please take off your underwear? Why? I don't 924 00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: mean to He was like, take them off, It'll be fine. 925 00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: I promised we won't show anything. She found it out 926 00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 1: in the middle of a premiere, in the middle of 927 00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:07,719 Speaker 1: the premier, watching a full audience, that her genitals were 928 00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:13,440 Speaker 1: now going to be distributed globally. Yeah. Pick so now 929 00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:15,680 Speaker 1: they're saying erotic fillers are going to come back. I 930 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:17,200 Speaker 1: have a lot of feelings about this. I think it 931 00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:22,200 Speaker 1: comes off the back of movies like Gone Girl, excellent film, 932 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:25,720 Speaker 1: sort of throwing the erotic thriller on its head because 933 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:30,439 Speaker 1: one it's the woman and instead of going directly after 934 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:34,080 Speaker 1: her husband. It's become more of a mystery and consuming 935 00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 1: and bringing him back to her in a way that 936 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:41,440 Speaker 1: is so scary and manipulative, but actually chooses to dissect 937 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,880 Speaker 1: what it is to be in a marriage of not 938 00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 1: love but kind of just being trapped. I guess I'm 939 00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:51,240 Speaker 1: not married. That was the sense I got from it, 940 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:55,720 Speaker 1: and it said don't get married. Um, I don't. I 941 00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 1: think that our autic fillers have a horrible, horrible history 942 00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:03,800 Speaker 1: of becoming real world spaces for sexual assault and or rape, 943 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:07,280 Speaker 1: many of them which made it to the final film, 944 00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 1: which is deeply disturbing. Also, I wonder if they have 945 00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 1: a place if you watch a lot of older erotic thrillers, 946 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 1: particularly once from the seventies and eighties, Like, I don't 947 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:21,920 Speaker 1: know how well these translate to our modern times, to 948 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 1: this modern era. I don't know what do you think, Jack, 949 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:29,720 Speaker 1: I So I think that first of all, so the 950 00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,000 Speaker 1: paulver Hoven story that you told with Sharon Stone, that 951 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,360 Speaker 1: is sexual assault, like that is he should be in 952 00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 1: jail for that. Instead he is part of this like 953 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:44,200 Speaker 1: new wave of like he's making a erotic thriller and 954 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:47,080 Speaker 1: people are like this might be a new kind of 955 00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:51,760 Speaker 1: era of erotic thrillers. I feel I don't think that's 956 00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 1: going to happen with movies made by him or the 957 00:58:55,040 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 1: guy who made Fatal Attraction is also coming back. But yeah, yeah, 958 00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:06,560 Speaker 1: of course, yeah, yeah. And I do wonder if, like 959 00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:11,440 Speaker 1: I think there is the common ground for erotic thrillers 960 00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 1: to come back, because I do think that because of 961 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 1: like social media and porn and just like I feel 962 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:24,560 Speaker 1: like there's less closeness and people are more strangers to 963 00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 1: each other than ever before now, and like people are 964 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,520 Speaker 1: more alone than ever before. I do think there's probably 965 00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:38,120 Speaker 1: like added anxieties around like erotic and romantic vulnerability. I 966 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,560 Speaker 1: I think there's probably going to be movies that deal 967 00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 1: with that in really provocative ways. I think they will 968 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:46,920 Speaker 1: be made by young people who have grown up in 969 00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:50,840 Speaker 1: the era of social media and like with those realities present. 970 00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna be made by fucking Paul Verhoeven. 971 00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 1: But I also think that, like some of the ideas 972 00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 1: around this being like a new wave of erotic thrillers, 973 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:04,160 Speaker 1: some of these analyzes are pulling in three sixty five Days, 974 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 1: which was just I feel like, so we covered that 975 01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:10,000 Speaker 1: last year, Like it was the number one movie on 976 01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,040 Speaker 1: Netflix for a lot of the year. It was just 977 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:16,520 Speaker 1: like soft soft porn that like people felt comfortable consuming 978 01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 1: as a date night thriller because it was number one 979 01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 1: on Netflix, and like, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. 980 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 1: But I don't feel like it's I'm going to reject 981 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,160 Speaker 1: it because it doesn't fit into my big theory that 982 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:33,520 Speaker 1: I just said. Richardson was a huge hit this year, 983 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,640 Speaker 1: and after like episode eight, it was just them fucking 984 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:40,680 Speaker 1: like yeah, but not anymore than like Game of Thrones, 985 01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:45,959 Speaker 1: I think, and and and not with the with less 986 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:49,720 Speaker 1: of the like violence and chance for murder then like 987 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:53,040 Speaker 1: your typical erotic thriller has. Yeah, there's definitely a hole 988 01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:56,360 Speaker 1: to be filled, like with true crime like coming into 989 01:00:56,360 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 1: the main z guys nowadays, like murders only in the 990 01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:04,440 Speaker 1: building or murder in the building, which the only murders 991 01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:06,440 Speaker 1: in the building. Yeah, that's great. I love that. And 992 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 1: then you got bin Game of Thrones and all these 993 01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:16,120 Speaker 1: sexy type of films coming in. It makes sense that 994 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:20,520 Speaker 1: people want to combine them. But like you said, Jack, 995 01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:25,960 Speaker 1: just finding the right voice, Like white Men, they got 996 01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:28,040 Speaker 1: a point of view, and we've clearly seen it for 997 01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 1: most of movie history. Yeah, hey, white guys, let's maybe 998 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:39,480 Speaker 1: sit this one out. Let's see what other people serious. 999 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 1: That's great, Just keep on goals if you're seriousness for everyone. Yeah, 1000 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:50,200 Speaker 1: we're family, we have Bond. Let's get let's go with 1001 01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 1: James Bond. Okay, anyways, it has been such a pleasure 1002 01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:00,960 Speaker 1: talking to both of you about all of this. Am 1003 01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:04,480 Speaker 1: Where can people find you and follow you and subscribe 1004 01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:09,840 Speaker 1: and join your pa.

And 1009 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,400 Speaker 1: is there a tweet or some work of social media 1010 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:36,000 Speaker 1: you've been enjoying. I had a tweet, but like, given 1011 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:39,320 Speaker 1: how heavy we've been talking, it was kind of depressive. 1012 01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:43,760 Speaker 1: So I just I would rather promote some comic artists, 1013 01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:48,560 Speaker 1: like one of my favorites, Yeah, Alex Smith draws.
