I 76 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: just don't. I don't possess that, Like I can't do it. 77 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: But I do admire someone who starts a chance and 78 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: then bails in the middle of it, and everyone around 79 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: them is just like what do we do? Like what 80 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: were they going to say? Wait, bail's mid in the 81 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: middle of starting. Yeah. Like, if I've been in an 82 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: area of like a protest crowd that like is get 83 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: like has just been quieter that like then someone will start. 84 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: But there was a time I think it was like 85 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: last Thursday or Friday, where someone was like what's this 86 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: and then just like bailed in the middle and everyone's like, oh, 87 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: what do we do? And just we finish it? Yeah, yeah, 88 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: this person needs support. What is the proper amount number 89 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 1: of like times that you shout something without anyone joining 90 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: you before you're like, okay, that's that's not happening. I 91 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: can answer this because it recently happened during the Hobywood protests. 92 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: That's another thing is like some people just don't understand protesting, 93 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: so like when people do call in response, they don't 94 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: get like the reason we do that is so when 95 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: people are walking by or if they're listening, they know 96 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: why we're protesting and they know what we want. But 97 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: some people don't know, and so they're kind of just 98 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: at you know, angry black Coachella. I would say, I 99 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 1: would say like three times, I give them three times 100 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 1: to be like, hey guys, this is what you should do. 101 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: And it only happened once at the Hollywood protests when 102 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,919 Speaker 1: it was just it was so lit out there and 103 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, I understand y'all.

First, we're gonna tell our listeners 109 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: a couple of the things we're talking about today. We 110 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: are going to talk about this radical idea of police 111 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: may require licensing going forward, which is another one of 112 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: these light like the eight that can't wait, like one 113 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: of those ideas where it's like, wait, what, that's not 114 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: the official policy already. We'll talk about Camden, New Jersey briefly. Uh. 115 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: They are a place that abolished their police disbanded their 116 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: police department a few years back, and how that worked. 117 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: We'll talk about how the mainstream media is covering the 118 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: protests right now, how Trump is responding to the protests, 119 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: and where we are with coronavirus, all of that plenty more. 120 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: But first, Lacy, what is something from your search history 121 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: that is revealing about who you are? Um? So, my 122 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: search history right now, it's I feel like in the 123 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: current climate. I'm trying to keep a balance of like, yes, 124 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: I'm feeding people constant information and I'm receiving and learning 125 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: as much as possible, but also just like some dumb 126 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: ship so that my brain just doesn't fall apart. And 127 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: this is one of those things that is still rooted 128 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: in activism, but dumb shit. UM. I recently got caught 129 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: wave of like the company dolls Kill, and you know, 130 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: they were doing some very inappropriate things when it comes 131 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: to Black lives matter. And then also people were like, 132 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: this isn't the first time, like they've been doing this. 133 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: So they issued an apology and somebody tweeted or Helen 134 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: tweeted shout out to Helen. She tweeted, I'm losing it 135 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: thinking about graphic designers being asked to design apologies but 136 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 1: keep it on brands. So they have like she has 137 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: all these photos of different brands and dolls Kills is like, 138 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: we fucked up. We should have been quicker plus louder. 139 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: And then I was like really starting to get interested 140 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: in dolls Kill, um. So I started going on their 141 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: website and like looking at their clothes.

And why did we discover an email 147 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: from someone who reached out to the company. I think 148 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: it was actually Helen Um because she found a costume 149 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: up on the website that was racist and she reached 150 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: out to them, and wait, I have to read you 151 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: guys this email because then I was like, who are 152 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: these people?

Um. 196 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: I didn't realize how nice it is to have another 197 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 1: living thing in my home besides me. It's really done. 198 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 1: I used to think, like for me, like a plant 199 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: like a baby. So I was like, I can't get 200 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: pregnant with a plant yet I'm not responsible enough. The 201 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: plant baby will die. Um, and I'm not trying to 202 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: experience that trauma. So I hadn't on it. But now 203 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: that I've been in my house for so long, I 204 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: was like I should get some plants and some stuff 205 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: in here, and it really has like kind of right 206 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: in my mood, if that makes sense. Like, do you 207 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: guys have plants in your homes? I still don't trust myself. 208 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: I have animals, but I don't trust myself with a 209 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: planted to as at the plants don't make noise if 210 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 1: you do them water. Yeah, yeah, that's my fear because 211 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 1: that is that the alert system you're on right now. 212 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, I'm not responsible enough to keep plants 213 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: from dying, but it doesn't stop me from trying. How 214 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: is being a plant parent? Um? It does make me 215 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: feel better than people. So thank you guys for not 216 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 1: owning pants, because now I feel just the superiority of 217 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: owning a plant. Um. Some of us, you know, create nature, 218 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: others cannot. Um. You know, like God created the heaven 219 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 1: and the earth. I created one plant. Uh No, but 220 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: it's good. It's still very early, so you know, anything 221 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: could happen. Don't ask me about this plant the next 222 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: time that I come on this show, because I don't 223 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: know if it's good. It sounds like a tinder relationship 224 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: now to where you're like, so far, so good, but 225 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: you know, right, what if something you think is overrated? 226 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: And that's why I didn't want to say this um 227 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: is the gym. Um. I haven't gone to a physical 228 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: gym in months, and I thought that I was going 229 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: to fall apart. But I've found uh this new free 230 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: gym called Outside and don't need a membership and there's 231 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: lots of scenery and I'm actually going on a hike 232 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: later today in Mount Washington to get some different views. 233 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: But I've I've really enjoyed physically being outside um in 234 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: a way that I never did before I was just 235 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: going to the gym. So I think I'm going to 236 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: add outdoor workouts back to like my gym workouts when 237 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: the gym opens up, because like it's nice, yeah, and 238 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: there's not other people sweating all over outside, Like whatever 239 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: you touch outside is covered in someone's sweat, right, Yeah, 240 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: it doesn't have a smell to it. I mean it does. 241 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: I do like the sauna and I do like swimming, 242 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: but so I'm gonna have my gym. But I do 243 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: think it's nice. It just feels more endorphin boosting when 244 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: I'm outside, because I feel like in l A were 245 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: in our cars or in buildings were not just like 246 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: outside as much without it being a planned event. Yeah, 247 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: I I've I thought, I think I've gotten like physically 248 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: healthier without I don't know, I've like had a gym 249 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: membership for a time, but I was it was just 250 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: more as a security blanket to know I could go 251 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: at some point if I wanted to. Same. Yeah, but yeah, 252 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: I'll be interested to see, like what the protests affect 253 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: on corona virus rates is, because it does seem like 254 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: outdoor has been the thing, like the cure all for 255 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: the spread of the coronavirus, Like we're told that, like 256 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: it's much harder to spread it, and you're when you're outdoors, 257 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: you're much less likely to be like standing next to 258 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: the same person for a long time. So I'm hoping 259 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: that I'm hoping for a number of reasons that the 260 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: protests don't, you know, lead to being out there. Most 261 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: people are practicing social distancing as much as you can 262 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: when you're a crowd of twenty people. But everyone I 263 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: saw pretty much had on a face mask and was 264 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: yelling through the face mask because that's the issue, is 265 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: like the droplets and you are yelling a lot more 266 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: out of protest so but what I from what I saw, 267 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: and I really wasn't interacting with a lot of strangers. 268 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: It was a lot of backs of people's heads, and like, 269 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: so I'm hoping, Hell, I'm hoping I don't got their own. 270 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: Every day I wake up up and checking my throat 271 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: and smelling and tasting as hard as I can, and 272 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 1: I'm like, uh, yeah, so I think that's why they're 273 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: opening l A. I saw bars with lines days ago, 274 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 1: bars with lines out the door, so everybody's out now. 275 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: They were like protests all right now the bar? Yeah, 276 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: that's thinking. Is that seeing the protests lives. I think 277 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: seeing the protests made people be like, well, now I 278 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: can go to Applebee's because those people are next to 279 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: each other. Um, and that's probably not good policy. And 280 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: I can also see that leading to an uptick and 281 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: then people being like, see the protests, the protests caused 282 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: an uptick and coronavirus when it's actually that everybody's going 283 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 1: and getting drunk in the same sweaty room together. Yeah, 284 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: and in places where there's like not great social distancing, 285 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: and and in states where masks aren't required any more, 286 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 1: is like, yeah, it feels like people are going to 287 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 1: use this as an excuse. I just wish that people 288 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: would still practice social distancing and maybe wear a mask 289 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: if you're going out, Like what's the harm? Like, I 290 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 1: don't want people to just start coughing in the air 291 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 1: and throw when they when they drop lets, you know, 292 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: through the stanky leg just because we did a protests, 293 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,959 Speaker 1: Like yeah, I think it's it is just like equating 294 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: like the urgency of a Black Lives Matter protest in 295 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: the urgency of you just wanting to go to a 296 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: Chilli's is there? It's very different. It's like, you know, 297 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: I don't know prioritize Lacy. Finally, what is a myth? 298 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: What's something people think it's true you know to be false. Um, 299 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 1: this is probably random, But my myth is that Guy 300 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 1: Fieri is a douche bag, because, um, Guy Fieri is 301 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: a great guy, and he's donated millions of dollars to 302 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: unemployed restaurant workers. He's openly spoke not about Black Lives Matter, 303 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 1: long before we reached this point with George Floyd and 304 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: Brianna Taylor and Mat Aubrey. Um, he's he's out here 305 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: for the people and and all this time, you know, 306 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: I feel like we've been kissing asses of other problematic 307 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: ass chefs because we thought that his shirts and spiky 308 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 1: hair were ratchet. But he's actually a great guy. But 309 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: I love him. Agree. He's got a good heart, and 310 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: he like I don't know, he like walks the walk 311 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 1: as well. Like he gives, he gives back. He doesn't 312 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: just say stuff. Yeah, I mean like I can look 313 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: out to like when he was out at protesting DC 314 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: for Black Lives Matter, Like he's been around and like 315 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: he's donated so much money to where the causes, Like 316 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: just googling it, I was like, is he a saint? 317 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: We should start making prayer candles with them. I bet 318 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: they exist, right, I want a Guy Fiery prayer candle 319 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: so badly. But I just think we always looked down 320 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 1: on him. Miles was talking on a recent episode about 321 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: how his relationship to Guy Fiery really made him like 322 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: he had almost a spiritual experience in reevaluating how he 323 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 1: feels about Guy Fiery. Yeah, I'm the same way, Like 324 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: celebrities just occupy brands, and you know, like Einstein is 325 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: still the smart guy brand, Jordan's is still the basketball brand, 326 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: and like I feel like Guy Fiery like and Larry 327 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: the Cable guy kind of got mixed up at some point, 328 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: like in our national consciousness, and they're just like fully 329 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: fully different. That's exactly what it is, because I think 330 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: that guy theories aesthetic has long been co opted by 331 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: racists and by just kind of like the you know, 332 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: the white people that you really just disdain, like that 333 00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 1: one uncle in the family that she's like, oh God, 334 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: he's coming and you know he's going to be drunk 335 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 1: off beers and doing all his blackie jokes. Uh. And 336 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: we just thought that that was what guy here he 337 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: was doing because of how he dressed and how he 338 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 1: talked and the food he cooks. Uh, we were wrong, 339 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: So we weren't listening. Yeah no, And there's so many 340 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: people getting canceled right now quote unquote, So it's nice 341 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 1: to like lift somebody up and not all be so bad. 342 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 1: And hopefully guy doesn't go back. But he seems to 343 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: have been doing the right thing for many years now, 344 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: so I'm not worried about having to walk this back. Somebody, Uh, 345 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: somebody tweeted a picture of his hands, and just yet 346 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,919 Speaker 1: another lovable thing is he has a plump, little baby hands. 347 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: Uh little they're not the size of a baby. They're 348 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: like grown upsized hands that are in the shape of 349 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:55,360 Speaker 1: a plump, little baby hand. Um, I know there's got 350 00:21:55,359 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: to be So I thought that's Jack's contribute was like 351 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: and he also has plump by topic, he's great. Alright, guys, 352 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. 353 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: And we're back, and so just on the subject, continuing 354 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: on the subject from yesterday's episode of an inadequate police reforms. 355 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 1: It's tough because like these are these would all be uh, 356 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: steps in the right direction, but it's also we we've 357 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: had steps in the right direction that have just given 358 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: way to like the inherent white supremacy of almost every 359 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 1: police force in the country. Yeah. Yeah, I mean the 360 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: police force is their original pation is the slave patrol. 361 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: And so I think a lot of people are confused 362 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: when they think that white supremacists have infiltrated the police. 363 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: They were created for white supremacy and they're doing their 364 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: job excellently. Um. I think a lot of black people 365 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: are were no longer at the point where we want 366 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: reform like eight can wait, uh because seventy two sounds cute, 367 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: But who are trying to be in that eight not 368 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: he I don't want to be twenty eight percent murdered. 369 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: I'm good. I want reform. And so these gestures are 370 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: absolutely headed in the right direction. And I appreciate that 371 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: we're creating a dialogue that is about reform, but I mean, 372 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 1: defunding the police is the start to this reform. We've tried, 373 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: We've we we gave them more money and resources and 374 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 1: they was just being not asked. Is waiting. I can't 375 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: believe I got paid taxes to get murdered. I gotta 376 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: pay the police, don't ask me. So I've I've heard 377 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: it can wait. And a lot of black activists and 378 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 1: UM leaders in the coalition, you know, we we don't approve, 379 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 1: not that I'm the leader of this, but the overwhelming 380 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: majority of the feedback from these propositions has been no, girl, 381 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: we wanted, we want it all. We we were not 382 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: coming back to fight uh next week like we tired. 383 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: So after we discussed it yesterday, I had a few 384 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: people in my men chese UM and and I guess yeah, 385 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: I think that I jumped on the show very quickly yesterday, 386 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: and so I gave a very broad explanation of what 387 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: it can't wait is I understand that it can't Wait 388 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,479 Speaker 1: says that the ultimate goal is to abolish the police, 389 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: but that has nothing to do with the reforms that 390 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: they're suggesting. These reforms have been tried in various ways 391 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: in various places, so many times. They're expensive, and we 392 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: know that they don't work. And I just wanted to 393 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 1: pull like a quick quote from the eight to Abolition website. 394 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 1: UM that explains way clearer than I possibly could, um 395 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: why they do not approved of the eight Can't Wait campaign. Um. 396 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 1: So they say Campaign zero released at eight can't Wait 397 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: campaign offering a set of eight reforms that they claim 398 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: would reduce police killing by sew which we know, um 399 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: as police in prison abolitionists, we believe that this campaign 400 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: is dangerous and irresponsible, offering a slate of reforms that 401 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: have already been tried and failed, that mislead a public 402 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 1: newly invigorated to the possibilities of police in prison abolition 403 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: and that do not reflect the needs of criminalized communities. 404 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: So that states it better than I ever in my 405 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: life could um. But yeah, I mean the criticism of 406 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 1: eight Can't Wait, like no matter where it's coming from, 407 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 1: of like a place of wanting to change this the system. 408 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 1: It's just not enough, and we appreciate that everyone is 409 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: really invigorated to in uh to start with policy. UM. 410 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: One of the things that we've been kicking, not kicking around, 411 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 1: but it actually is a policy that we're trying to 412 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: get past, is Brianna's Law. Still in the US, forty 413 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: eight states have no knock warrants, which basically means they 414 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: can come into they come into your house without knocking 415 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 1: whenever they want, as long as they have a warrant 416 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: from a judge. So that's something that we're trying to 417 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: get rid of. UM. But I do appreciate that people 418 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: are really trying to enact policy. But yeah, we we 419 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: just we've been here so many times that I think 420 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,679 Speaker 1: this time around, we're really hoping that it's not going 421 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 1: to be the same loop of violence, the same uptick 422 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: of support, and then the same forgetting of these situations 423 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 1: that always happens a few weeks after. Yeah, a lot 424 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: of the suggested UM reforms seem like their effect is 425 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: to make you shocked that those things aren't in place. 426 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 1: Like that, Licensing is not a requirement for police, even 427 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 1: though it's a requirement for doctors and hairdressers and like 428 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 1: literally everything that could impact your life in any in 429 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: any way. And a story that was on CNN actually 430 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: about Camden, New Jersey, which abolished their police years ago, 431 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: and it was after very similar complaints to what's going 432 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: on in Minneapolis, and they've had a lot of success. Um, 433 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: it hasn't been perfect, but they've seen the violent crime 434 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: in the city cut in half. Whereas a lot of 435 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 1: the people who are so shocked about the idea of 436 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 1: abolishing the police are are amazed that like people they 437 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 1: just assumed that because humans are cruel, or their version 438 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: of humanity is cruel, that it's just going to be 439 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: a complete, you know, free for all of people killing 440 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: and robbing each other. And actually, when they abolished their 441 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: police and you know, reformed it in a new way 442 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: that was from the ground up, they saw a violent 443 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: crime cut in half. And the reforms are all things 444 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: like police abolitionists are talking about, like having better representation, 445 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 1: and yeah, it was just an interesting story that if 446 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: if you are one of the people who's like police 447 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: abolition is a nonstarter, you should at least realize that 448 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,239 Speaker 1: your version of what would happen if the police were 449 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 1: abolished in your town. You know you need you need 450 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: to learn more because that clearly isn't what happened in 451 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 1: one of the places that actually did it. Yeah, it's 452 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: like and not for nothing. It's not a nonstarter because 453 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: it's starting, Yeah exactly, and if you google it, it's 454 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: not as scary as it seems. It doesn't mean that 455 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: there won't be people to come that you can call 456 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: to help you. A lot of it is about unarming 457 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: people who should not have guns in the first place. 458 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: You don't need guns to do a wellness check. We've 459 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: seen so many wellness checks go from the person, actually, 460 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: what's fine when we got here, but then we killed them, 461 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 1: So you know what I mean. There's a certain areas 462 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: of policing that need to be more specialized and have 463 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: people who actually have the skills to help one of 464 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: those domestic violence cases, like what you know, those police 465 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: are helping people who are a big him of to 466 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,719 Speaker 1: make the violence so not proportionately. If you look at 467 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: the numbers, um, And if you look at the numbers 468 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 1: within the force, whoa that jumps out at you. Um. 469 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 1: So it's just like there's still going to be people 470 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: to protect and help you, but there's going to be 471 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: care instead of you know what we're getting right now, 472 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: which is just aggressive police who are terrified. Apparently they're 473 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: not always terrified. We've seen those videos. They are killing 474 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: people on purpose. So yeah, google it. It's not it's 475 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: not as crazy as it sounds. It doesn't mean that 476 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,479 Speaker 1: there's just gonna be robbers and cops breaking into your 477 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: home because there's no popo to stop them. Yeah, it's 478 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 1: not an anarchist like platform. It's organized. There are like 479 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: and and I also understand, like we were talking about 480 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: a little bit yesterday, like everyone is on a pretty 481 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: steep Like most people are on a pretty steep learning 482 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: curve with this stuff. I know I am as well. 483 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,479 Speaker 1: And it's like, you know, two weeks ago, could I 484 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: speak to police abolition at length? No? I couldn't. I 485 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 1: knew that it was something that I like, I liked 486 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 1: the concept of, but I couldn't you know, speak to 487 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: it in detail. And so it's like, yeah, just you know, 488 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,479 Speaker 1: learn about places that have already um put things in place, 489 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: learn about police reform and how it has not actually 490 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 1: serve as much and usually just stands to waste a 491 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:24,239 Speaker 1: ton of taxpayers money. Like there's you know, we're all 492 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: learning ship police abolition is not as extreme as it sounds, 493 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: and the current version of police is way way more 494 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: extreme than we give it credit for, and then our 495 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: mainstream media gives it credit for, and we're seeing it's 496 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: weird to see mainstream media lie to you while you're 497 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: watching a video like on voiceover, Like we all saw 498 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: in Buffalo where the police officers attacked that seventy five 499 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: year old man. But I listened to voiceover from the 500 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,719 Speaker 1: news that was like he has he fall into the ground, 501 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: and I was, like him to the ground. Ye, running 502 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: over people is not something that we should all want. 503 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: Those people were run over by a car, not not 504 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: attacked by you know, murderous police officer. That's that's the 505 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: thing we're seeing a lot more of that I would 506 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: think would be sort of a an alarming trend is 507 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: white supremacists, police and just loose white supremacists, unaffiliated white 508 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: supremacists driving their cars into into crowds of protesters. But 509 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 1: it seems like the mainstream media that doesn't that kind 510 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: of goes against the grain of of what their typical 511 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 1: areas of interest are. It does seem like the Buffalo 512 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 1: video was a turning point. The you know, people were like, 513 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: that doesn't seem right, and also old white people were 514 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: like that guy looks like me and they just pushed 515 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: him down. What the hey? And so it does seem 516 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: like we're starting to see a deluge of of all 517 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: these police videos and videos of police violence that have 518 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: just been like, I don't know, they've just not been 519 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: showing people. We've we've just only seen like I've seen 520 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: a lot of them on social media for weeks, but 521 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: like now I feel like they're breaking over into the 522 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: mainstream again. It's like shocking that we were in a 523 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: version of reality where that was seen as normal, like 524 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 1: what we're seeing in these videos. But at the same time, 525 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 1: I'm glad that people are starting to see them at 526 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: least and that the media is starting to to show them. 527 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 1: Although at the same time, the media, like the local 528 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: news is no longer covering the marches during daytime TV. 529 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: They're not preempting local programming, so you know, now that 530 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: there's not you know, looting to show footage of looting, 531 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, even though the weekend was 532 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: the biggest protests yet they cut in it was it 533 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: was only on CNN it wasn't the local news covering 534 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: it like during the day. Yeah, it's interesting because we've 535 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: seen how Donald Trump has really attacked mainstream media for 536 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: their reporting on his behavior. But the bottom line is 537 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: is that truly mainstream media has almost started to serve 538 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: a purpose of protecting the state and protecting you know, 539 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: the norms, the societal norms that we've had that have 540 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: not been okay. Um. And it's very disheartening and disappointing 541 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,959 Speaker 1: because the news is what is informing most of our 542 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 1: voter population, and it's the reason Twitter is always shocked 543 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: when someone that we never thought would get elected gets elected, 544 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 1: because there's a silent majority who they get their news from. 545 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: These people who are being so deeply irresponsible. Um. And 546 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: our politicians are afraid of the police. The Blagio got 547 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: on television and told people that he thought it was 548 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: fine that the police ran over his It doesn't he 549 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: said it. He said it in l A. Our own 550 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 1: police chief got on the news and blamed us for 551 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: killing George Flood. Um. So there's a real disconnect with 552 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: these people, and it comes from the money. Guys. We 553 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: we can't change policy with people who are afraid of 554 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 1: the police. The police have been threatening him. They've been threatened. 555 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 1: They docked his daughter in New York marriage. Blagio's daughter, 556 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: like Eric Garcetti out here in l A, is very 557 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,760 Speaker 1: afraid of them as well. Like we cannot change people 558 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: who are thugs and bullies. We have to take their 559 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,919 Speaker 1: money away. It's the only way, right, And I would 560 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 1: also recommend if, especially for the bigger cities, just look 561 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: at how the police budget dwarfs any social service that 562 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 1: is being given. There are some horrifying graphics in l A. 563 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,919 Speaker 1: It's overt of the city's budget, but it but from 564 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: city to city. It's just it's billions of dollars being 565 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: invested too. You know, a accomplish what exactly um our 566 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: homeless could be off the street. You could actually walk 567 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 1: down the street and not be super depressed to see 568 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 1: people without homes and without care. You know, there's so 569 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: many social programs and services that were neglecting. And like, 570 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,360 Speaker 1: I've been seeing this a lot everywhere. But people are like, 571 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: it's scary to think about defunding the police, But we've 572 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: been defunding healthcare and education, uh since the beginning of 573 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: this country, right, and those are things that you need 574 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,080 Speaker 1: you don't meet cops. Do you wake up every day 575 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: and meet cops? No? Maybe one day someday. As a 576 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: black I try not to call them. If I was 577 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: getting robbed right now, I wouldn't call the place. I'm like, look, 578 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: here are my things, let's just hash this out. My 579 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: good day, sir. It turns into just a meeting, you know, 580 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: stay up, yeah, use those cards in the next three hours, 581 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 1: because I am going to turn them off. But I 582 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:55,760 Speaker 1: know it's interesting. I mean even on a local level 583 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 1: of news reporting, because I know that most of the 584 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: stories that we personally come into contact with our how 585 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 1: the gigantic city protests are going, and what the reality 586 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: is of being at a protest that becomes people being 587 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:17,399 Speaker 1: you know, like tear gassed and just driven at at 588 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: the hands of the police, versus how the news spins 589 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: it um. But even on a local level, I was 590 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: there was a protest in my hometown last week, and 591 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: my aunt and uncle went to the beginning and then 592 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 1: they left and later in the night it's like the Brockton, 593 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:40,839 Speaker 1: Massachusetts police force just let loose on people before their 594 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 1: curfew had even started. There was tear gassing, people were 595 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 1: hurt and all you saw on the news the next morning, 596 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: and how a lot of my family who were not 597 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 1: there interpreted it was well, things just got wild and 598 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 1: people started looting. When you know, if you look at 599 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 1: the accounts of people who were there, there is a 600 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 1: clearly marked and it's mostly on Twitter and it's mostly 601 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: via live stream, but there's a clear like in in 602 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:11,359 Speaker 1: like small local places. It's the same everywhere, and it's 603 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 1: all you see is we'll look at they've smashed the 604 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,240 Speaker 1: duncan donuts and you're like, that is not the point, 605 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 1: and that neglects so much of what happened. It ignores 606 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,760 Speaker 1: the like the precedent for looting in the first place, 607 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: and it also just ignores everything between a peaceful protest 608 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 1: and things arriving at that place like that that you 609 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 1: don't get there and avoid like the police. And I 610 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: don't know, it's it's been bizarre to talk to my 611 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,760 Speaker 1: family about. You know, it's like there's people like people 612 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 1: I went to high school with where there they were 613 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,840 Speaker 1: tear gas, Like how do you account for that in 614 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 1: the news that you see, And it's just you know, 615 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 1: it goes down to a very local level of like 616 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: how how stories are covered and Americans. We've gotten used 617 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 1: to everybody lying to us. I mean, our president just 618 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 1: just laugh like it's it's gotten to the point where 619 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 1: it's not even outrageous anymore. We're like, oh, yeah, he 620 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: lied about that anyways. Um, And it's weird to see 621 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 1: everybody at every level doing it. The police have been 622 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,840 Speaker 1: lying as much as they possibly can. The mayor and 623 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 1: Seattle lied and said that they were no longer going 624 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 1: to tear gas their citizens, but it turned out that 625 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,359 Speaker 1: they had just run out of tear gas and as 626 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: soon as they re up, they started tear gas at 627 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: people again. So you just made this statement as a 628 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: flex because you were literally out of tear gas. Don't 629 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: we care about people? We're no longer going to gas 630 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: shot because we love y'all. Seattle be up. Then the 631 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,760 Speaker 1: next day they were like, oh we got some more, Okay, 632 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 1: get it out there. We take it back and we 633 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: take it back, we take it back. It's so and 634 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 1: and even. And I think that there's also like, I mean, 635 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: we've been seeing so many journalists are getting intentionally harmed 636 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 1: by police, and it's journalists who are trying to be 637 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 1: on the ground and report the story accurately. Uh, that 638 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 1: are losing literally losing I and like, you know, go 639 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,920 Speaker 1: to Robert Evans coverage in Portland, like journalists who are 640 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: trying to cover the story on the ground accurately are 641 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 1: being intentionally targeted. Like yeah, yeah, I mean, if you 642 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:15,760 Speaker 1: want to get a sense of how the police feel 643 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 1: about just the general state of affairs right now, the 644 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: NYPD union leader had a press conference and it was 645 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: just like he was so bitter and resentful and petulant, 646 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: and it just felt like you were watching a a 647 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 1: child have a have a meltdown. But I I think 648 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:43,720 Speaker 1: that's a very you know, police are very defensive and 649 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: you know, very good at closing lines around one another. 650 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: And I think that's yeah, you're you're that that's going 651 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,280 Speaker 1: to be something that has to be reckoned with as 652 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 1: as this progresses. All right, let's take another quick break 653 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 1: and we'll be back to uh talk about Trump's latest 654 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: life and we're back. We we keep talking about this 655 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 1: video of a Buffalo to Buffalo police officers pushing a 656 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 1: seventy five year old guy to the ground. He falls back, 657 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,319 Speaker 1: hits his head, starts bleeding out of his ear, and 658 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: is motionless. And it's still in critical condition. As sort 659 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 1: of a turning point in the way. The media was 660 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 1: just like, well that's no, no way, no how uh. 661 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:47,799 Speaker 1: And Trump has come out and put himself firmly on 662 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 1: the side of the cops in that situation. He's claiming 663 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: that the old guy was an agitator for Antifa, is 664 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 1: what his statement was, which, Jamie, you were pointing out 665 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 1: there are like these memes of of like this is 666 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 1: the leader of Antifa and like it being a squirrel 667 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: or something like that, Like you think Trump saw that? 668 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,399 Speaker 1: Do we think Trump saw one of those and was like, 669 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 1: who knows? I mean, didn't he am? I Like, he 670 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 1: like retweeted something about Insecure the other night. There's no 671 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 1: way to predict what he sees on the internet and 672 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 1: what he does not see on the internet. What did 673 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: he tweet about Insecure? There was Trump is watching Insecure 674 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: on HBO. He's I saw it. Molly is not a 675 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 1: good friend. Make Molly great again? Let me find it. 676 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 1: But all that to say, okay, yeah, it was on 677 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:53,760 Speaker 1: Franklin Leonard's feet. He retweeted, uh, like a live tweet 678 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: from this week's episode of Insecure, Like who can say, 679 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 1: I'll source the tweet it And but it. This happened 680 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:04,840 Speaker 1: on Sunday night, you know. Now now he's saying that 681 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 1: the old man that we saw assaulted is the is 682 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: a member of Antiva, like an Antiqua Provoca tour, which 683 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: is just again playing into like the joke of that 684 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 1: meme is like the whole point of Antifa is there's 685 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 1: not a leader like it's you know, but a lot 686 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,319 Speaker 1: of people don't know that. I guess I don't know, 687 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 1: but the fact that Antifa is now considered a terrorist 688 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 1: organization as well as Black identity extremists, but not the KKK, 689 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 1: because you know, they're chill, They're super chill. Just butt 690 00:42:47,200 --> 00:43:03,879 Speaker 1: in the chat. I got all my lauingerie from Antifa provocateur. Yes, 691 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:09,360 Speaker 1: I want to see that storefront. But it does seem 692 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: like um just kind of checking in with where he is. Uh, 693 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 1: you know, we're months out from the presidential election. In 694 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:22,240 Speaker 1: addition to that, he's just been kind of in this 695 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 1: uh spiral like last Friday's job report, which may be erroneous, 696 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: but it was at least more positive than people were expecting. 697 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 1: He claimed it was a great day for George Floyd 698 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,280 Speaker 1: UM and that he's probably smiling down on the great 699 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 1: jobs report. I don't know, He's just behaving like a 700 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: guy who really needs a win and is acting erratically. Uh. 701 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 1: And the more desperate he gets, the more erratically he behaves. 702 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: It's so bizarre to use a man's death to try 703 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 1: to further your political career in this angle, like like 704 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,840 Speaker 1: it's totally understand the politicians will be out here like 705 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,720 Speaker 1: what I saw with George Floyd, like my heart, all 706 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 1: of our hearts, all you know, that bullshit stump rhetoric 707 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 1: that they have. But it's weird to just be like 708 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,880 Speaker 1: George Floyd's looking down at our unemployment numbers and and 709 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 1: he's and he's smiling, like like are you adding those 710 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:22,319 Speaker 1: two together? Boy? George Floyd loves what we're doing with 711 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:27,280 Speaker 1: the COVID test and sinners. He definitely does what what what? 712 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 1: That's not how you use this? You should use it, 713 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:34,399 Speaker 1: but that's definitely this is not a method. I mean, 714 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 1: like a lot of bullies, I don't think he's comfortable 715 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:41,400 Speaker 1: when he's, you know, down, when he doesn't have the 716 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 1: momentum and it doesn't have a screen a chantion crowd 717 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 1: at his back. I I also wonder, like I think 718 00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 1: the two thousand six Team campaign really empowered a lot 719 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 1: of racist white people to stand up and voice their 720 00:44:56,239 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 1: opinions more loudly. UM. And I think George Floyd's murder 721 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: and you know, the subsequent protests and the subsequent more 722 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 1: police violence might be empowering not racist people to be 723 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: louder and more chest out about what they believe. UM. 724 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: Hoping that that's what we're seeing. So I would attest 725 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:21,359 Speaker 1: to that. I do think that I've seen a lot 726 00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 1: of people who UM in the past really only seem 727 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 1: to like, you know, maybe do some kind of performative 728 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 1: gesture or you know, black whatever, UM, kind of come 729 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,839 Speaker 1: out and be more vocal online and to their own 730 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,439 Speaker 1: followings and to their own fans, like people who say 731 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,280 Speaker 1: that they're a political because I think we're really challenging 732 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 1: people to see that, like if you're looking away, you're supportive, 733 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 1: and that's just what it is. Like you can't say 734 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,840 Speaker 1: I don't like politics when politics are killing black people. 735 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 1: If you don't vote, you're killing black people. If you 736 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:55,280 Speaker 1: look away, you're killing black people. And if you do nothing, 737 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:57,239 Speaker 1: you're killing black people. And if you don't talk to 738 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 1: any of your white friends about this stuff, you're killing 739 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 1: black people. Stop dem and your black friends like, I'm 740 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 1: so savvy about racist girl. Anyways, this is what I'm 741 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 1: doing to work on it. Why don't you talk to 742 00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,240 Speaker 1: your white friends about that, apologize to them about racism, 743 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 1: and y'all work together because we're tired, Like we're gonna 744 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,719 Speaker 1: continue to work, But I can't also do the emotional 745 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 1: labor of well meaning white people, Like that's unfair to 746 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 1: ask me to do all of that. And certainly that's 747 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 1: happening a lot more right now. But I'm also seeing 748 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 1: white people talking to other white people and also being like, hey, 749 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 1: don't hit up your black friends about this. Hit us up. 750 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 1: We got we just learned some stuff, Like I said 751 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 1: on Twitter, like white people, you don't hit your black 752 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,239 Speaker 1: friends up. When you want to make forcacha bread for recipes, 753 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 1: you google it, so mixed racism, don't talk to me. 754 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 1: Duane Perkins had a great tweet about that yesterday, where 755 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 1: it was he said, you know, you wouldn't believe it 756 00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 1: just happened to me. I was scrolling through Twitter and 757 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 1: saw a tweet referring to something I didn't know, and 758 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 1: instead of replying explain this to me, I just googled 759 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 1: it and now I know what it is like funk 760 00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:02,839 Speaker 1: what a rush Like You're like, yeah, I canna just 761 00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:08,280 Speaker 1: bing it and have conversations. People who say their opinion 762 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: on a podcast that they haven't listened to yet and 763 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,760 Speaker 1: they accuse you of not having made the point that 764 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 1: they have to make about the subject are also a 765 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: favorite of mine. Um, look, I haven't listened to this yet, 766 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: but yeah, like, well, I think you guys are missing this, 767 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 1: and it's like, no, that's I think the first thing 768 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 1: we talked about one of the first things. Um. Anyways, 769 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 1: just want to flex. But I hope that this is 770 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 1: the last thing I want to say about this is 771 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,319 Speaker 1: I hope that people start getting more comfortable with being 772 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 1: wrong and uh, with being uninformed and then not being 773 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,880 Speaker 1: comfortable and informed, but then seeking out knowledge. Um, because 774 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,800 Speaker 1: I feel like our culture has just touted being correct 775 00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 1: and dunking on people. That's a very big Twitter culture 776 00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,600 Speaker 1: as well, and it makes us feel bad when when 777 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:02,120 Speaker 1: we we've been doing things quote unquote the wrong way. 778 00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 1: But I think it should make us feel excited that 779 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:07,680 Speaker 1: we're getting new information and that we're making changes. And 780 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,279 Speaker 1: I think that's the way to receive this, you know, 781 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 1: if anybody calls you out about something, it's I've never 782 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 1: been more. People don't understand how defensiveness comes off, Like 783 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:21,840 Speaker 1: no one ever respects you more for being defensive. I 784 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:23,800 Speaker 1: have never had a heart on more for a human 785 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 1: being than when I see them go oh, I see 786 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:28,319 Speaker 1: what you're saying. And I didn't have these tools and 787 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,799 Speaker 1: now I'm setting these things and I'm yeah, I can 788 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: definitely work on this and change this, versus coming out 789 00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 1: and being like, look, we never shot any black people ourselves. 790 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:41,279 Speaker 1: Where is this on slat coming from? Yeah, And even 791 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:44,280 Speaker 1: if you do come out that way in the first place, 792 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:48,360 Speaker 1: there's still you can still change. Even if you're defensive 793 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:52,560 Speaker 1: at first, you can still be like, Okay, you're right, 794 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:56,280 Speaker 1: I funked up. That was my original knee jerk reaction. 795 00:48:56,360 --> 00:49:01,560 Speaker 1: But you sound like dolls killed Jack. I fucked up. 796 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,360 Speaker 1: We were too slow. We should have been quicker, We 797 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 1: should have been should have been Yeah, faster plus louder. 798 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 1: The plus is crucial because it's on branding. You know 799 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,920 Speaker 1: that there was a design note that went out about 800 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 1: the faster plus louder equals should have been us like 801 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:27,719 Speaker 1: real quick, we are seeing a COVID bounce back in 802 00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:33,319 Speaker 1: states that opened, and you know that doesn't seem to 803 00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:39,040 Speaker 1: be stopping states from further opening. Like we talked about people, 804 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:44,880 Speaker 1: you know, they're they're being lines outside of Bars, California's 805 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 1: opening movie theaters on June twelve, even though there are 806 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 1: no movies to see unless Tenant. I'm just I'm just 807 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 1: gonna go sit in there just for the air conditioning. 808 00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,120 Speaker 1: I wonder, I mean, I am very curious if people will, like, 809 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:08,440 Speaker 1: will people go two? That's that's a great question because 810 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:12,239 Speaker 1: I missed movies. Movie theaters have taken such a hit 811 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,800 Speaker 1: from just like I remember after the movie theater shooting, 812 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:17,839 Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know if I can't really 813 00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 1: be going in here no more. And now COVID it's 814 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:24,879 Speaker 1: like a dark room. Sometimes it's moist. You don't know 815 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:28,239 Speaker 1: what you are sitting on, like well, you don't know 816 00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:31,839 Speaker 1: what there's something on the two things that they say 817 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,839 Speaker 1: like they that seemed to be things that they've learned 818 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 1: about how it spreads that I didn't know when we 819 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,760 Speaker 1: were first like thinking and talking about this is being 820 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:45,440 Speaker 1: indoors seems to be worse than being outdoors because the 821 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 1: air is like stale and everyone's using. Breathing in the 822 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:52,880 Speaker 1: same air and being around people for a long period 823 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:55,840 Speaker 1: of time as opposed to just like passing them on 824 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,720 Speaker 1: the street is a significant factor, and like movie theaters 825 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 1: have both of those things. We talked about that a 826 00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 1: bit ago, because I think it was like Miles who said, like, 827 00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:09,760 Speaker 1: our job is the most high risk job for spreading 828 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:11,799 Speaker 1: COVID because we just sit in a room for an 829 00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:14,399 Speaker 1: hour and a half and talk close to each other, 830 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 1: Like now we'll never see each other again in person. 831 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:22,799 Speaker 1: That's yeah, never accepted it. I've accepted you'll always have 832 00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:28,319 Speaker 1: to wait for my lagging audio. Yeah, but Jack, that's 833 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,600 Speaker 1: a great point that sitting in a movie is probably 834 00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:35,839 Speaker 1: just like COVID incubator two hours of breathing with the 835 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 1: same people in the dark, and dependent on if it's 836 00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:42,760 Speaker 1: a big theater or not. Those not every theater is large, 837 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 1: So yeah, the detailed contact tracing they've done is definitely 838 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 1: worth looking at. Like they did a very detailed case 839 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,319 Speaker 1: study of a restaurant where it was spread and it 840 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 1: had to do with like the people who were on 841 00:51:57,360 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 1: the side that the air conditioner was blowing towards were 842 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:04,279 Speaker 1: the ones who got it. Um and you know, they 843 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,040 Speaker 1: were there for a couple hours and it just got 844 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:10,359 Speaker 1: spread to that entire side of the restaurant, but like 845 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 1: another side was not did not get sick. Um there 846 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:18,319 Speaker 1: was they've they've done it on a plane that they 847 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,760 Speaker 1: did contact tracing on a plane where like certain people 848 00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 1: in certain seats specifically got it. So it's it's worth 849 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:29,640 Speaker 1: looking at it. It was it was mainly the people 850 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:35,320 Speaker 1: around the patient zero the spreader. But it's the closer 851 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,960 Speaker 1: you are to the I think. And then they're like 852 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,799 Speaker 1: random people who I'm guessing like got up to go 853 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:45,319 Speaker 1: to the bathroom or something and like touched the wrong thing. 854 00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:51,879 Speaker 1: But that stuff is yeah, I don't know, it's yeah, 855 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:56,520 Speaker 1: North Carolina more people were hospitalized with COVID nineteen on 856 00:52:56,520 --> 00:53:00,319 Speaker 1: Monday than any other day during the pandemic for mont 857 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:04,400 Speaker 1: saw spike and infections and wearyingly for me and children 858 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:08,920 Speaker 1: getting infected, which has always been I think a lot 859 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 1: of parents are just like really nervously watching uh that, 860 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:16,360 Speaker 1: because that's something I've heard from the start, is a 861 00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:20,800 Speaker 1: possibility of like the disease, the virus mutating to being 862 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:26,800 Speaker 1: more something that targets children. Because it's really it's really 863 00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:30,919 Speaker 1: like almost random, Like I think, I think it's easy 864 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:32,879 Speaker 1: to be like, well, the older people are the ones 865 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:37,560 Speaker 1: who get targeted because they're you know, older and have 866 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 1: more health problems. But like the nineteen eighteen flew like 867 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 1: killed people our age and like only people our age, 868 00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:47,440 Speaker 1: Like it just took out young adults for some reason. 869 00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 1: So there is just like random um aspects of the 870 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:57,400 Speaker 1: disease that will cause it to like change direction and 871 00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:01,400 Speaker 1: in really scary ways. So yeah, I don't know. And 872 00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:06,040 Speaker 1: then very worrying for people are protesting is that the 873 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:09,720 Speaker 1: National Guard that was deployed to the protests have tested 874 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:13,160 Speaker 1: positive who are at the protests in Washington, d C. 875 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:17,759 Speaker 1: So and not to mention that like the use of 876 00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 1: tear gas and the use of a respiratory like that 877 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:29,520 Speaker 1: you can't. It is just shocking, like how the police 878 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 1: force has managed to exacerbate everything wrong. Uh, and then 879 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,880 Speaker 1: they don't get that this is their fault. Yeah, that 880 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,440 Speaker 1: this is totally their fault. Their response. They could have 881 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 1: arrested they rested thousands of people when we really just 882 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:46,440 Speaker 1: needed seven people, right, we needed the Brianna Taylor's three 883 00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 1: killers who are still walking through all of George Floyd's 884 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:52,560 Speaker 1: and they were like, no, We'll arrest thousands of people 885 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,200 Speaker 1: and expose everybody to COVID so that we can protect 886 00:54:55,600 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 1: seven paper. Yep. The Louisville Police Department needs to be 887 00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:05,520 Speaker 1: the next one. The Louisville City Council, however, works that 888 00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:10,200 Speaker 1: needs to go. Yeah, And the only other thing I mean, 889 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 1: I would just say like at this time, like people 890 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 1: we I unless you're going to a protest and like, 891 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:22,240 Speaker 1: you know, lending yourself to a life and death matter, 892 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:26,080 Speaker 1: like try to like stick to the rules that we 893 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 1: were given before because it's not as under control as 894 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:33,319 Speaker 1: I think people are assuming. Or if you gotta go, 895 00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 1: if you just gotta go, get some food and be out, 896 00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 1: wear a damn mask and don't stay there for hours 897 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:45,400 Speaker 1: at a time because all you're doing is letting yourself cook, 898 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,279 Speaker 1: like you're just up in the chance that you're going 899 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:53,040 Speaker 1: to get it. I had a home girl who had 900 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:55,880 Speaker 1: a commercial audition that they're not audition, but a commercial 901 00:55:56,000 --> 00:56:00,359 Speaker 1: that they were shooting for Apple, and they shot during 902 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:04,920 Speaker 1: COVID and had like a ten person skeleton crew and 903 00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 1: they runted a house to Airbnb. And why did one 904 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:13,239 Speaker 1: of the people on the crew have Corona No So 905 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:15,840 Speaker 1: then exposed all these people. Then they all had to 906 00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:19,360 Speaker 1: go into incubations. So it's like, guys, if you're gonna cheat, 907 00:56:19,440 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 1: cheat smart, at least all get tests before you do 908 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 1: something that the government told you not to. Yeah, I 909 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:29,399 Speaker 1: mean that that's the It's like, if you are going 910 00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 1: out regularly and you are in an area where testing 911 00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:36,120 Speaker 1: is accessible, like it's a pain in the ass, The 912 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:38,680 Speaker 1: line suck. The government's making it harder for you to 913 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 1: get tested than it should. But if you can't, if 914 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:45,920 Speaker 1: you have access to testing, just go like just it. 915 00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:49,239 Speaker 1: I don't know I have. I haven't received even from 916 00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:51,600 Speaker 1: like I haven't received any pushback for being like, hey, 917 00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:53,600 Speaker 1: I need to just like not be here for two 918 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 1: hours today because I had to go sit in a 919 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:57,960 Speaker 1: fucking line at Dodger Stadium until I want to melt 920 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:00,959 Speaker 1: into a puddle. But it's like it's worth it because 921 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,560 Speaker 1: then you know, like now I know when I go 922 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:06,680 Speaker 1: out protesting that I'm not putting people at risk. Like, 923 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:11,239 Speaker 1: if you can't get tested, just just do it. Jakis 924 00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 1: also tipped me off to the fact that they're doing 925 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:17,439 Speaker 1: free testing. It a lot of CVS is to if 926 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 1: if your city is being a pain in the ass 927 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,880 Speaker 1: about it. H There there are other options out there. 928 00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:25,840 Speaker 1: The only other thing is that the I didn't realize 929 00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 1: how much the markets had continued to rebound since the 930 00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:36,880 Speaker 1: initial like sharp downturn. But on Monday the markets went 931 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:41,720 Speaker 1: up so much that they're in the positive for the year, um, 932 00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 1: which seems I don't know that that can't be a 933 00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:51,760 Speaker 1: good thing when the markets just don't reflect anything about 934 00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 1: reality in any way. So I don't know, like the 935 00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:58,360 Speaker 1: fact that we're where we are and the markets haven't 936 00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:02,720 Speaker 1: even like registered the uh, how fucked things are and 937 00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:06,720 Speaker 1: that's probably coming is also something to just I think 938 00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 1: that I'm just keeping in the back of my mind. Yeah, 939 00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 1: because I mean, property damage and financial loss is the 940 00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 1: only thing that the majority of this country understand or 941 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:20,960 Speaker 1: respond to. Um. I've never seen people more emotional about 942 00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:24,840 Speaker 1: a target. You would you would think target was their 943 00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 1: dad and that would just beat their sweet old daddy 944 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 1: to a bulk. So it's it's it's definitely disturbing when 945 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 1: we see that. It's not like I want financial rumen 946 00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:38,440 Speaker 1: for this country, but I just want incentive for people 947 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:43,480 Speaker 1: to be humane, and unfortunately that's not humanity that's money 948 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 1: and capitalism, because that's all people care about the large 949 00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:50,440 Speaker 1: majority of this country. We've been indoctrinated in condition to 950 00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 1: think that we are all just a cog in the 951 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 1: wheel and a number um, which is sad. So yeah, 952 00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 1: that's worrisome for sure. They're like, well, the billionaires are 953 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:05,280 Speaker 1: doing great, better than ever before.
