They might want to think about that, anybody, 64 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe they should think about that. Also, the Toronto Argonauts. 65 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: We don't want to forget about our Canadian football. Yeah, Argonauts, 66 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: like like as in the myth of like Jason, Yeah Jason, 67 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: And there was a whole there was a whole title 68 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: that whit what what?

But Argo is 74 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: also a movie that Ben Affleck made about American intelligence 75 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: people that were actually Canadian intelligence people. He just changed 76 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: it so damn Jason. Is this an ancient name? Yeah, 77 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: that's yeah.

Yeah? 79 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: I didn't think so. Huh. Yeah, he's an ancient hero. 80 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: Actually the son of a son, a son son, although yeah, 81 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 1: a Sanson num, the one man army, a son I've 82 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: never been taking out. I keep MC's looking out, Tiff. 83 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: We're gonna get to know you a little bit better 84 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our listeners just 85 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: a couple of things we're talking about today. There's a 86 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: little SWITCHERU, a little head fake happening with GOP Senate mission. 87 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: McConnell said he doesn't have the votes. We don't have 88 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: the votes. Uh. And then to stop witnesses. He said 89 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: that on Tuesday night. Uh. Then by Wednesday they were 90 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: gaining confidence that they would have the votes to uh 91 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: stop witnesses and just a quit Trump by end a week. Uh. 92 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: So we're we're still waiting to see how that shakes out. 93 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: But I was noticing a overall just sort of zeitgeist 94 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: Steve vibe in the mainstream media. Uh that was basically like, 95 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: damn tired of impeachment. Man, we're over it right as Americans. 96 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: Fuck it. It's one of those things, you know why, 97 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: because unfortunately it's treated like entertainment. So if you know 98 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: that it's right, why do we need to look at it? 99 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: But it's versus when it started? Oh no, And now 100 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: that we know that there's just no uh no, one 101 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: has a spine in the Senate and it's going to 102 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,239 Speaker 1: play out exactly how most cynical people were thinking it would. 103 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: I think it's I guess for the people who report 104 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: the news are like, I don't know, just getting the ratings. 105 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: It's one of the more clear cut failures I've seen 106 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: to the mainstream media in my lifetime to just, you know, 107 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: completely shirk their responsibility as like any sort of civic institution, uh, 108 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: in favor of just being like this story is old. Uh, 109 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: let's adopts GOP talking points. So we'll talk about that. 110 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that Trump rally in New Jersey, Wildwood, 111 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: close to where I hail from the Jersey shore and uh, yeah, 112 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: some scary ship that's what Fox News was talking about. 113 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: I had a had a rare night on Tuesday night 114 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: where I was actually paying attention to what the mainstream 115 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: media was talking about, and it was troubling. Uh. We 116 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: are going to talk about Trump supporters giving out cash 117 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: to the black community at rallies supporting him. Uh We're yeah, wow, 118 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: that that doesn't smack of desperation. We're gonna talk about 119 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: the coronavirus myths. We're gonna talk about Popeye's uh coming 120 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: for Beyonce's Ivy Park, whether I don't know whether she 121 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: was inspired by Papa, their logo color. I think it's 122 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: an amazing space. All of that and plenty more. But first, Tiff, 123 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: we like to ask our guests, what is something from 124 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: your search history that's revealing about who you are? Well, 125 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: I've been on the Goop website. Yeah, one of candles 126 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: so well, there was a seven hundred dollar pair of 127 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: high waisted trousers, which presumably also smelled like when this 128 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: badge because I've long mocked it. I thought it's about time, 129 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: now that they've got their own series on Netflix, I 130 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: thought it's about time that I properly went on the 131 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: site and looked at what they were selling. And then 132 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: I came across a page of what I can only 133 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: describe as rage inducing T shirts with things like Volvera 134 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: written on them, and then one that said pagan. Do 135 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,839 Speaker 1: you know what a pagan is? No, you just drink vegan. 136 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: Yeah right, it's freak and right. Yeah, I love it. 137 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: I love it. I didn't know what it was. It 138 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: stands for half paleo, half vegan, vegan and because I 139 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: thought paleo had like quite a lot of meat in it, right, 140 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, Like, can you at that point 141 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: say you're vegan at all? Because you are not? By definition? 142 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: You are eating meat. I don't get it. But my 143 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: main thought about it is, I guess is fine cool 144 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 1: if you are, don't put in a fucking T shirt 145 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: Like I don't need to know what your meal plan is, 146 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: you absolute tragic individual. This seems to me like it 147 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: exists in a universe where being a vegan is cool. 148 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: So they're trying to steal some of the cash being 149 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 1: a vegan, but being paleo they're like, oh, like work 150 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: basically vegan. I mean, just eat meat to me. I like, 151 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: to me, it doesn't get you or lose you points 152 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: based on how you eat food. My mind, I'm like, 153 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: whoa who who. I guess it's for people who. I guess. 154 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: There are people though you meet who's dietary or their 155 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 1: diet plan is their personality, so of course that makes sense. 156 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: How much are those shirts, by the way, Oh, they're 157 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:18,719 Speaker 1: like perfect five bucks. I was the best one I've 158 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: ever seen of this. I was in China once and 159 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: it might have been a slightly lost in translation, but 160 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: it was mind boggling to me.

Um. So it's like to kind of like 199 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: stimulate healing and promote collagen and stuff. And I think 200 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: in the same way they use like ice bath some 201 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: sports people afterwards will go in a red light room 202 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: to remote like so it's part of that. One is 203 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,559 Speaker 1: like obviously a heat therapy. One of the It's funny 204 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: you mentioned, uh, ice baths, because that is one of 205 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: the episodes of Goop, the Netflix TV show that we 206 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: we kind of talked about yesterday that they specifically like 207 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: they did a medical analysis and they were like, the 208 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: one about ice baths is nonsense. There's like that doesn't 209 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: exist or that was the raiky thing I think, But 210 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 1: they also said that after the stuff, Yeah, I mean stuff, 211 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: the guy said a ice bath or a cold shower 212 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: a day keeps the doctor away. Oh yeah, I can't 213 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: go that far, and he is not a doctor. I mean, 214 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: it's funny when you go on like web MD and 215 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: like what is red light therapy. It's telling when they 216 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: say r l T is a treatment that may help 217 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: skin muscles blah blah blah blah blah. Right, so I said, all, 218 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: you know, it sounds like people know about it, but 219 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 1: there's not enough studies. But I'll try everything FDA approved 220 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: and then there's f d A. There's the two things, 221 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: isn't there there's one that's like approved, and then there's 222 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: under review like not banned but recommended in like past 223 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: or approved, like the difference between saying something is fine 224 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: to kind of going we actively recommend it. The FDA 225 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: has determined this will not kill you cleared version. It's 226 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: pretty funny. Low bar clearing a low bar? What is 227 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: something you think is overrated? Oh? Months? Months? Yeah, they've 228 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: become very needy. Every month has a thing now, so 229 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: you know dry January or Stoctober, you know, which is 230 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: basically October. We have that in the UK, so there's 231 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: a few every so you do have dry January here. 232 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 1: A lot of people do dry January. Yeah, people do 233 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: that here, you right, And then in the UK a 234 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: lot of people asked you to sponsor and I don't 235 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: want to do that. For giving up booze for a month, 236 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: so you're paying them to stop drinking. Yeah, I mean 237 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: obstensibly for a charity, but really it's it's running a 238 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: marathon when people ask you to sponsor their marathon. Yeah. 239 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: Like he's paying me to stop drinking though, Yeah, paying 240 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: me to stop crystal meth so I can donate to 241 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: to some animal charity. I don't know, Like we have November. 242 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: Do you have that here of men looking like Victorian 243 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: sex pests or for me, looking just like an absolute pirate. 244 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: At one time, I try to grow a mustache. Boy 245 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: this pirate. It looked like remember when like there are 246 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: those pirates in Southeast Asia, like Thailand and ship because 247 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: you know, look looking black and Japanese, I could pass 248 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: for a Southeast Asian dude. I had like this, My 249 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: long hair looked like a guy who was out at sea, 250 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: like around there, robbing ships and stuff like that. It 251 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: was so whisp. It was tragic that people were like, Okay, 252 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: maybe this you don't have to do it isn't we 253 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: appreciate you aligning with this movement, but you look like 254 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: you have scurvy? Yeah, you know, I remember at one 255 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: point when I was working at a like a more 256 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: front facing job. They're like, do you think you could shave? 257 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: And I was like, but it's November, Like yeah, but 258 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: it just looks terrible camera. Okay. I mean, I think 259 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: there's very few men that can really carry off a mustache, 260 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: and when they can, it is magnificent, but too much 261 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: it tips into creepy sex pest. It's creepy sex pest 262 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: or like racist biker or you know, there's not there's 263 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: a few like sort of snap judgments you can have 264 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: based on seeing someone's mustache. I think Nick Offerman is 265 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: one of the people where it's like wow that that 266 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: in and of itself is an accessory. I gained ten 267 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: years when I grow a mustache, Well, don't you kind 268 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: of grow like a handlebar? Or didn't you have handle bar? 269 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: A handlebar is just the length is the one that 270 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: like goes up at the sides. I grew like the 271 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: one that's like more Hulk Hogan like that goes down 272 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: on the side. I think that's a different name that 273 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: sometimes like Ericastrada's and also like Sam Elliott. Sam Elliott 274 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: does good facial hair. Yeah, that's you. You can rate 275 00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: his taches. I had had a Sam Elliott many years 276 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: ago and it did not look good very very much 277 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: sex paper like Tom Salek. You know. I think it's 278 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: one of those things though too, those mustaches. Those people 279 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: without the mustaches. You're like, well do you get the 280 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: mustache back, especially if you have no upper lip, you 281 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 1: know what I mean. I'm sure Kenneth Brana would benefit 282 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: from having a big mustache. Yeah, well you never know. Yeah. Yeah. 283 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: So that all the months, all the months basically so 284 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: just but I think every month has something. Now, it's interesting. 285 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: The sober month in America is January. Isn't it January? 286 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: Dry January or whatever whatever? People want to sober February 287 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: and dry. We have drug January, but we also have 288 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: stopped tobber, but that's not could be stop anything, stop 289 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: stop anything, chocolate, stop something that's bad for you ostensively 290 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,719 Speaker 1: and then pay money. Um, and what else do we have? 291 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: We have one that's like Viganuary that happens as well, 292 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 1: so you can try to January. Yes, you can try 293 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: going vegan for months, um, and then god, I think 294 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: there's like yeah, I mean then there's all the other 295 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: stuff like that is like holidays, but it just feels 296 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: like everything like almost every week or every month, we're 297 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: trying to get another thing going, right, Yeah, enough months, chill, chill, Well, 298 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 1: just like how well, I mean, every day is a 299 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: day also, Like let's not forget that there's every single 300 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: day has some kind of significant or you know, perceived significance. 301 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: Like for example, what is today National cross on Day? 302 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: It's always a pastry of something. I feel like the 303 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: thirty first jam pack, National big Wig Day, National Hot 304 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: Chocolate Day, National Backward Day? Is National big Wig Day? 305 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 1: A day for people to wear big wigs? Or is 306 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: it a day where we like give the proper respect 307 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: to to the big wigs to our corporate over like 308 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: they need a day man, No, it's I think it's 309 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: what it is is for people to use uh put 310 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 1: a wig on fundraising while bringing awareness to a cause. Yeah, 311 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 1: I think wig. Like that's a that's a good one. 312 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: We should just do one time an episode where we 313 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: do an analysis of all these bullshit holidays and just 314 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: like sort them into okay, get rid of this this 315 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 1: is invalid versus like a day where everybody wears wigs 316 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: and like gets to see what they would look like 317 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 1: with different hair does, Like, that's that's quite fun. Well, 318 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: I mean This isn't exactly, but I like that as 319 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: an idea. Just check out, try some wigs, hold on, 320 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: Think about how many people are going to get that 321 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 1: so inappropriate? Yeah, I don't know, it's it's a wig. 322 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: It's an AFRO wig. Right, I thought I would. I 323 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: don't know. I thought I should canceled. Actually, I think 324 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,640 Speaker 1: probably maybe people would be okay, but fashion houses maybe 325 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: not right right right, Gucci would probably do something with that. 326 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: What I is something you think is underrated the people 327 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: building Trump's wall, because I think they're purposefully making it ship. Yeah, 328 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: so the interflashed, Yeah, there was. There was an article advice. 329 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 1: It was President Trump had been bragging about his bordable 330 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 1: being virtually impenetrable, but it turns out, well you need 331 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: to get through is a cheap sour? Yes, yes, smugglers 332 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: are reportedly using hundred dollars source to cut through sections 333 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: of the US Mexico Bordable. And then it said it 334 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 1: was missing chunks. You know that famous technical term that 335 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: architects are always using. Yeah, we're gonna put a chunk 336 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: in over there in that hole. How many chunks we 337 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: got left? Yeah, I mean it's one of those things too. 338 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 1: I think it's half I honestly think it's born out 339 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 1: of like the money that's available because we're not the 340 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: government's really not trying to actually fund this thing. And 341 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: then so you're left with some guy because it's like 342 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: a bunch of private people bidding for it, and they're like, yeah, man, 343 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,640 Speaker 1: this is impenetrable. Trump. I'm also the visibly most racist guy, 344 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 1: So pick me, and then cut to so and being like, yeah, 345 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: let me get a skill star real quick, right, Yeah, yeah, 346 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: I wanted to say that Trump should know that anything 347 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 1: can be unconsented, really penetrate it. Let's see how he 348 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: likes grab him by the railings. Tell the wall it's 349 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: not even that good looking, definitely not ten and it 350 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 1: should consider itself lucky. Um. Yeah. So one of the 351 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: reasons they did it the way they did it is 352 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: apparently it's very easily fixable. Put the chunk back in, 353 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 1: right back in. Because look, that's the thing about a wall. 354 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 1: Step one. Can it be broken through, but can you 355 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: fix it after? Right? I mean that's how I do 356 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: all my projects extra shitty, so they're easily fixable, right, 357 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,959 Speaker 1: Like I make the flaws everything and everything I do 358 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: very evident. So then anybody can come in and just 359 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: kind of, you know, put it together. It was just 360 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: literal constructive criticism. Exactly what is a myth? What's something 361 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,640 Speaker 1: people think it's true, you know, to be false, horror 362 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: vice versa. Oh okay, um did I? I can't remember 363 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 1: if I've done this here before, but there is a 364 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:57,919 Speaker 1: myth that Australia doesn't exist. Oh. I mentioned this on 365 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 1: the show This Is Heard. This it's a conspiracy theory 366 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 1: that from yes, yeah, that Australia as a continent doesn't exist. 367 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: What happens is people get on a plane and then 368 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: they're flown in the sky for hours, taken to somewhere 369 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: in South America, I think. And then actors are hired 370 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 1: to speak Australian and I mean, I don't know how 371 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: they get around like kangaroos and stuff, roos and wallabies, 372 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: because that's the first thing when you're in Australia, like, 373 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: oh my god, this is wild. But yes, that apparently 374 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 1: Australia is just all made up. Yeah, I mean, you know, 375 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: I talk about this a lot, and some of the 376 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 1: Facebook groups I'm in just about used to perpetuate this 377 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: myth that there is such a thing as down under 378 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: this great firmament that we live on, which is really 379 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: more akin to a snow snow dome diorama, I would say, 380 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: floating through the heavens. Um. But yeah, I mean like 381 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 1: if I dig far enough underneath my house, I'm like 382 00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: in the UK, I'm probably going to hit Australia, right, 383 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: So I haven't I hit Australia? No? Actually, well, based 384 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: on I think if the Earth is flat, so you 385 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,959 Speaker 1: would just fall at the bottom into the infinite space. 386 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: I think, or a lot of those they've hired actors. 387 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,199 Speaker 1: They've hired actors. The thing I love about that is 388 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,959 Speaker 1: that like the idea that there is this amount of 389 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: effort going into being like yep, and then these people 390 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: will talk a made up language. We've created an entire 391 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: history about it being a penal colony, uh, and then 392 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: you know, check out the ruse. It's also suggests a 393 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: really like vast reservoir of actors who are imaginative enough 394 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 1: to have made up that accent and like perfected it. 395 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: Maybe it was an American actor trying to do a 396 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 1: British accent. What do you call that? What do you 397 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: call it? I don't know exactly. Yes, I think you've 398 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: you've got it. Yeah, explained Chris Hemsworth. Right. Uh see, 399 00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 1: that's what we should do. Get him in a box, 400 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 1: see what happens if he'll spill the beans on what's 401 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: really going on. I just googled Australia doesn't exist, and 402 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: there's quite a bit of literature out there. I'm not 403 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: saying it's accurate. I'm just saying that there's some interesting 404 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: things to read. I'm going to do some independent research 405 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: and then I'll determine for myself what's the over under 406 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 1: on all of those articles somehow out of nowhere diverging 407 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: into anti semitism or homophobia. Because all of these books 408 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,919 Speaker 1: are like, yeah, this one says the basic theories that 409 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: Britain invented the convict colony of Australia as an excuse 410 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 1: to execute tens of thousands of prisoners under the guys 411 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 1: of transporting them. Today, everyone is in on the prank, 412 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: right down to the airline pilots ferrying tourists to decoit 413 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: islands and actors playing the part like some real life 414 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: version of The Truman Show. All the things you can 415 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: call proof actually well fabricated lies and documents made by 416 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: the leading governments of the world, your Australian friends that 417 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: all actors and computer generated. I mean, here's here's an 418 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: idea to go to quote unquote Australia, get on a 419 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: boat and then just see if you can circumnavigate it. 420 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,880 Speaker 1: That would probably that would put it to rest. If 421 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 1: it's a secret island or where you are, I mean, 422 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: I think just I don't know what to say. I mean, wait, 423 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 1: I guess island. Then you could say if you are 424 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: a flat earther, though, that would be by far the 425 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 1: best use of your money would be to go to 426 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: Australia and live in the Truman Show for like a 427 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,439 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Like that would be and just like 428 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: try and be like ha ha yeah, or commit a 429 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: crime there and be like, okay, yeah, we're going to 430 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 1: cord very funny wigs. Did the barristers wear wigs there? 431 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, Yes, they do. Fantastic alright, a real 432 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: court that yes, all right, we're gonna take a quick break. 433 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 1: We'll be right back and we're back and uh it 434 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: real roller coaster ride. Following the impeachment into Wednesday, Uh, 435 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell said he didn't have the votes to stop Witnesses. 436 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: On Tuesday night, I forwarded that headline to you guys, 437 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 1: hopefully it was like bombshell, and no one responded. Nobody responded. 438 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: Nobody even like gave it a thumb. Whatever. Man. Uh So, 439 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and say, you guys are all 440 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 1: part of the problem. But then by Wednesday morning, the 441 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: GOP was gaining confidence that they did have the votes 442 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: to stop witnesses, and uh moved to acquitting the president 443 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: by I think Friday. They're saying by tomorrow. Uh So, 444 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, Like the the whole we don't have 445 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 1: the votes might just be an attempt by McConnell too. 446 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,679 Speaker 1: That was a fucking distress flair, is what that was. 447 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: At the time. He probably did not have the votes. 448 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: The reason he said that is to signal to everybody 449 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: outside of those rooms. You know, we need to start 450 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 1: putting pressure on everybody right now because we don't have 451 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 1: the meats. As I keep saying, shout as um. Yes. 452 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 1: That's why my first instinct was, like, he doesn't like this. 453 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 1: Isn't like McConnell because he doesn't like to ever admit that, 454 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: like he doesn't have his ship his side of the 455 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 1: chamber in order. And I think that's why a lot 456 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: of people were a little bit cynical, because you know, 457 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 1: like in a way, you know that people you would 458 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 1: have to start getting in their ear would be Lisa Murkowski, 459 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 1: would be Susan Collins, to be Mitt Romney, maybe Lankford 460 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 1: from Oklahoma. Who knows who these other people are. But 461 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: now it seems like they have just enough to block 462 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: witnesses and then maybe those vulnerable senators like Collins or 463 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: Murkowski can have their vote for witnesses and then use 464 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 1: that as their cowardly cover to be like, you see, 465 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: I did the right thing. So really, yeah, they submitted 466 00:27:54,880 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: their questions yesterday Romney died and I don't know necessarily 467 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,479 Speaker 1: what those questions were just yet, but it seems like 468 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: that's there, you know, they they have their cover to 469 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: be like we asked questions, they just didn't answer, and 470 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: I don't see how witnesses are gonna Yeah, and it 471 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: was such I mean, yes, we can be cynical about 472 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: all of this, but I will urge people please call 473 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 1: your senators to like it's a very easy thing to do. 474 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 1: There's things like resist spot you can use that will 475 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: help fill shit out. For you to be able to 476 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: submit uh letters, whatever you need to do to put 477 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: some form of pressure. I mean, a lot of the 478 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: times you call a senator's UH phone line, the voice 479 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: the voice mail is full, which is a good sign. 480 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I mean, this really is 481 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: such an absolute fucking joke, and they really in their mind, 482 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 1: they're they're set up to completely overlook what the you 483 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 1: know what, why impeachment is even uh defined in the Constitution, 484 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 1: all in the name of partisanship, and because they are 485 00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: afraid of what it means for Donald Trump to start 486 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: talking bad about them. This is all just fear based really, 487 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: especially why they're they're not voting because they really think 488 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: that he's innocent. They're voting because the calculus they're using says, well, 489 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: I go against the president, He's gonna put me in 490 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: a tweet, say something about me, and a rally, and 491 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: now everybody's gonna not like me, and I'm going to 492 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: have to deal with angry Trump supporters and then I'm 493 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: and I don't want to and I want to have 494 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: an easy election. Are they thinking that he's Are they 495 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: in the back of their minds thinking what if he 496 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: gets the second term? Oh yeah, I mean absolutely, because 497 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: if he is, then they've they've made their teacher's pet, 498 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: and they'll be like, see, how was there. And we 499 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: talked about this yesterday or last night when we're talking 500 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: or two nights ago, about the sort of dynamic between 501 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 1: Mitt Romney and Senator Leffler of Georgia where they were friends. 502 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: But suddenly she was tweeting, like very publicly adding him 503 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: adding the president like I don't know what this guy's thinking, 504 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: precisely because someone's gonna someone's gonna challenge her from the 505 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 1: right who's more of a Trump, you know, more of 506 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: a Trumper than she is. And I think that's when 507 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 1: you're starting to see like no one is doing everyone 508 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: is now just fully and like who's the most popular 509 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: kid in school standing next to the bully? Right exactly 510 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: so that I don't believe over seventy percent of Americans 511 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: have said they want to hear from witnesses. You know, 512 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 1: there are definitely people in that seventy percent that are 513 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: Republicans who are like, I want to hear from Hunter Budden. 514 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: Even of Republicans want to hear evidence. Yeah, I didn't 515 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: think there would even be that many, right. I also 516 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: am noticing sort of a a flagging of that energy 517 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: from the mainstream media of just that it seems like 518 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 1: they're the Republicans are winning the framing battle, because like 519 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: the New York Times is now framing the questioning of 520 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: impeachment managers and defense attorneys as like basically as witnesses 521 00:30:55,400 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: and Bolton and the only actual witnesses as questioning additional witnesses. 522 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: They're like, will they get to question additional witnesses as 523 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: if there have been witnesses? That's an interesting I mean, 524 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: I guess because in the House Inquiry there were witnesses, 525 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: so there, I guess maybe they're using that evidence that 526 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 1: was submitted as part of this thing of saying the 527 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: additional witnesses, because I mean, I guess that must be 528 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: why they're using that. I was watching uh Anderson Cooper 529 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: last night, and like there seemed to be sort of 530 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: a palpable exhaustion bordering on, like, I don't know, nihilism 531 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: about impeachment. There is a it seemed like the consensus 532 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: was that people, people like the people out there, were 533 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: tired of impeachment and it was time to wrap the 534 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 1: whole thing up because witnesses are just going to drag 535 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: the whole thing out longer. Uh. It seemed like they 536 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: were basically Sanderson Cooper said those words like yeah, that's 537 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: an actual GOP talking point, right exactly. It just seemed 538 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 1: like everybody had accepted that and they were like this 539 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: is counterproductive for the Democrats because uh, you know, nobody 540 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: really cares about this. It was essentially mean. It was 541 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: just like christ, yeah, it was unbelievable, Like it's a 542 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: disappointing impeachment season, like you said earlier, of like it's 543 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: treated like entertainment or sports boring now like I know, 544 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: I know the outcome of you know, Real Madrid playing 545 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: a third tier team from like France or something like, 546 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, like out just like whatever. Do you see 547 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,239 Speaker 1: that they were going to the It's stealing focus from 548 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: the issues that people care about, which is something I've 549 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: heard from the left, like Chopo like says that they're 550 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: like this is all bullshit and a distraction. But it's 551 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: the way that if you frame it that way, then 552 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: you were overlooking the fact that he's trying to cheat 553 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: at the election. That you're saying we should all be 554 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: moving on or absolutely destroy the institutions that are necessary 555 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: to keep this thing in balance at all. If if 556 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: we like this is the thing, you know, the erosion 557 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: of the Institute sans is like precisely what the threat 558 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: of this presidency is. And then when we have no 559 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: way to say, like, oh, this is how we need 560 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 1: to do things, this is how we address these problems, 561 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: and we have no roadmap for that now, and then 562 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: it's just utter chaos. So it's you know, I get 563 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: on one hand, yes, this does not affect people directly 564 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: right now, but it depending on what direction we're going in. 565 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: We need these things to hold or we're gonna or 566 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna end up really in the true health escape 567 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: where they're like the courts. But it feels like that 568 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: is already happening. Yeah, I mean, sure, there is that 569 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: sense of nihilism, but at the same time, I'm like, 570 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: I feel personally hopeless that I don't believe in the 571 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 1: Republicans to do the right thing, but I still feel 572 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 1: that they still need to be aware that there is 573 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: a large segment of the country that is looking at 574 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: the thing. Yeah. Yeah, there's an article on the Citizens 575 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. Have you seen this, 576 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 1: uh with new analysis saying every impeachment trial has had 577 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 1: new witnesses. Right, No, absolutely, every impeachment trial completed in 578 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: the Senate's two one year histories featured witnesses who had 579 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 1: not testified in the House. According to an analysis published 580 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: by Citizens Who Responsibility in Ethics in Washington, each of 581 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 1: the fifteen impeachment cases completed by the Senate, witnesses who 582 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 1: were not heard during House of Representatives impeachment investigations testified 583 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: in front of the Senate. Yeah, every there's nothing. Every 584 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: argument that has been offered up against witnesses or why 585 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 1: this trial is a sham has no legal precedent, and 586 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 1: there's there's not a single legal scholar except for the 587 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: hacks that are defending the president, that are bringing up 588 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,240 Speaker 1: these arguments and trying to pass them off as legitimate. 589 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 1: And so part of the reason I was kind of 590 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:53,879 Speaker 1: looking at the you know, cable news ship sphere on 591 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 1: Tuesday night, partially because we got the kids to better early, 592 00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 1: but partially because this dude, Perry Bacon Junior from five 593 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,879 Speaker 1: thirty eight was talking about how like that's where to look, 594 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 1: because like if you look at the Senate floor, we 595 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: know what their arguments are going to be. But if 596 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: you look at you know what Republicans spokespeople and senators 597 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: are saying on cable news on Tuesday night, that was 598 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: where you were going to see like how things were trending. Uh, 599 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: And it really seemed pretty stark that like on CNN 600 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: and MSNBC they were just like basically giving up. And 601 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: then on Fox is all about Trump's rally in New 602 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: Jersey and how like Fox is already like doing spiking 603 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 1: the football, Fox not not just on acquittal on like 604 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 1: him winning the next election, because he had that big 605 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: rally in New Jersey and they were talking about how 606 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: uh he like they put out stats after every rally 607 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: and they were like ten percent of the people who 608 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: came to this rally didn't vote in and we're Democrats. 609 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:07,239 Speaker 1: So um, if that's true, that's fucking terrifying. Uh. But 610 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, there may be a group 611 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,680 Speaker 1: of people who have a morbid fascination and they're also 612 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: probably a group of people who have the dormant racist 613 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 1: being awoken in them and they're like, wait, I couldn't 614 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 1: do it last time, and maybe everybody around he's doing 615 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: this to. Maybe it's okay, but it's there as traditionally 616 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:31,439 Speaker 1: a New Jersey. Yeah, but I do think I mean, 617 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 1: this is scary to me because that was the thing 618 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 1: that we people who thought Trump was gonna lose in 619 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: we're having to overlook, was the rallies and like the 620 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,760 Speaker 1: fact that he was like filling these giant airport hangars 621 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 1: and we're you know, analysts were like, yeah, but that 622 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 1: doesn't matter, and it ended up being a pretty good 623 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: indicator of, uh, the amount of kind of support that 624 00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: was out there that wasn't being reflected in the polls. 625 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 1: And it just it's worrying that that seems to still 626 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 1: be a thing that is happening. If you've seen some 627 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: of the stuff that he said at the rally, Yeah, 628 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 1: warned that the Democrats want to close your factories and 629 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 1: get rid of your cows. You know, those cows on 630 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 1: the Jersey There's a lot of Jersey cows. There's some 631 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: good area out there on the Jersey shore. But is 632 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 1: that way he did the rally? Wow? Would and even 633 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: the just done corrected, you know, even the connections just 634 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,399 Speaker 1: sort of I was just thinking a little bit back 635 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 1: about this impeachment thing too. There are people from his 636 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:41,800 Speaker 1: legal team who have given thousands of dollars to the 637 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: senators who are currently the jurors there too, you know 638 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like Robert ray ken Star, they have 639 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,840 Speaker 1: donated plenty of money, Mitch McConnell and the like, And 640 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: I guess it's all I mean, yes, on one hand, 641 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,879 Speaker 1: sort of getting back to the rally thing, Yes, it's 642 00:37:55,960 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 1: frightening when you see that many people energized. Uh, but 643 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I I feel as a hope. My 644 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: hope though, too, is that this really needs to underline 645 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 1: to people that it's the It's exactly, the stakes are 646 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,800 Speaker 1: higher this time, and no one can at ever any point, 647 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 1: even when you look at well every Democratic candidate beats Trump, 648 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,840 Speaker 1: Yeah there, you're still up against this. And that's really 649 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: why it needs to still be the focus of figuring 650 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: out how we are going to actually effectively vote this 651 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 1: person out right. I feel like those two stories taken together, 652 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: just made me like really worried about any future where 653 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 1: it's like a Biden or you know, somebody who doesn't 654 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: have any sort of populist energy behind them. They just 655 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:46,320 Speaker 1: have sort of the And that's not necessarily fair to Biden, 656 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,879 Speaker 1: but it's it does seem like He's sort of the 657 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 1: consensus mainstream media pick uh in the same way that 658 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton was. And you know, the mainstream media just 659 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:02,399 Speaker 1: is not like they're not going who uh succeed on 660 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 1: their own terms. It was another headline that was like 661 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 1: Biden and Sanders surge again, and the only motherfucker who 662 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: actually was had any significant increase was Bernie right. I mean, 663 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:18,760 Speaker 1: imagine what happens if these primaries start going to the left. 664 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 1: What starts happening with the media then, Because every time 665 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,319 Speaker 1: there's something where the man proclaimed himself to be the 666 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:30,359 Speaker 1: living nightmare of billionaires starts surging, there's a response from 667 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:35,240 Speaker 1: that class. Yeah. I mean even before Trump like showed 668 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 1: up on the scene, Bannon and Mercer, the architects of 669 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: hisen you know, run to the White House head pulling 670 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: data from Facebook that they had stolen. Essentially that said 671 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:53,879 Speaker 1: that a populist candidate, an outsider candidate, was like what 672 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: America was waiting for, and that's what Trump became. I 673 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: I just don't know that if he put him against 674 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 1: somebody who is uh the establishment candidate, who is you know, centrist, 675 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,280 Speaker 1: which just means like right leaning uh with the modern 676 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:15,839 Speaker 1: Democratic Party, like that that's going to succeed. Um. So yeah, 677 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: I mean it's the energy. If you're going to capture 678 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: some of that energy. Who are people are saying? You know, 679 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 1: clearly now a lot of the voting public is at 680 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:27,720 Speaker 1: that phase they go, who the funk are these people 681 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,399 Speaker 1: that like? Because I think this presidency has awoken some 682 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,280 Speaker 1: people to sort of looking at how power is moving 683 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: around in d C and who represents who. So, yeah, 684 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,319 Speaker 1: it would be a mistake to then have someone who's like, yeah, 685 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,839 Speaker 1: I'm kind of the guy you are kind of realizing 686 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 1: you probably didn't like as a politician, versus someone who's 687 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: like talking about things that actually benefit the working person 688 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: rather than being like the stock markets fucking lit right right? 689 00:40:53,520 --> 00:41:02,720 Speaker 1: Maybe because yeah, I am a radical populists Wall Street guy. 690 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, Well, another way to motivate the people is 691 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: just give out cash man. Uh So this has to 692 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: be illegal, I would think. But Politico had a story 693 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 1: a couple of days ago about how, uh Trump supporters 694 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 1: are um giving out cash to people in the black 695 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: community to try and uh, you know, they have rallies 696 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 1: where they're giving out cash and they're also you know, 697 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: saying Trump is the is the answer essentially they were. 698 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: So it's the Urban Revitalization Coalition, okay, and there are 699 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,399 Speaker 1: a lot of all these Trump allies. Uh, they are 700 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 1: basically doing like a lottery. So like one of the 701 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 1: first giveaways was in Cleveland and people if you had 702 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 1: a like a winning ticket, you gotta get a ticket. 703 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 1: They draw your name, you get a little they'll give 704 00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: you hundreds of dollars and they put an envelope. There 705 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 1: was another one that like literal envelopes of cash giveaways 706 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 1: on whatever. Or I mean, if I was a smart 707 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 1: black person, I would be like, yeah, yeah, I love Trump, 708 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 1: vote for him. Idiot, shame on you and this whole 709 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 1: fucking farce, this whole the Yes, it does bring up 710 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,399 Speaker 1: another question about they are a five oh one C three. 711 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: They're they're fucking nonprofit organization, meaning their money has to 712 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,359 Speaker 1: go to benefit the community or do something like that. 713 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:31,279 Speaker 1: But the way, apparently the CEO of the Urban Revitalization 714 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,720 Speaker 1: Coalition is saying that most of the gifts are between 715 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: three and five dollars and the group, I guess their 716 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 1: mandate is that anyone who receives anything over six hundred 717 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: has to fill out of W nine for tax purposes. 718 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,600 Speaker 1: So they're doing it like being like, yeah, so we're 719 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,439 Speaker 1: compliant with the law. But I think many people about 720 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:52,160 Speaker 1: saying how that actually meets the legal standard for a 721 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 1: charitable act. That's a big question mark, and most like 722 00:42:55,680 --> 00:43:00,840 Speaker 1: absolutely not. I mean in their early days of politics 723 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:05,600 Speaker 1: in America, they used to have voting parties where they 724 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 1: would just have giant, enormous parties where you would get 725 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: people drunk and they would all vote the way you 726 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 1: wanted them and like you would only have ballots. Well no, 727 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: it was even like Washington like used to do that, 728 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 1: like George Washington. Uh, it was like very early days. 729 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 1: But like there are you know, we've adopted these norms. 730 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: I'm sure there are certain laws, but all these like 731 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 1: really technical laws can be like you can get around them, 732 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 1: or you can at least get them tied up in 733 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: the court. So that like, what what's going to happen 734 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:43,399 Speaker 1: if he continues doing this and it's somehow effective, like 735 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: you know, doing ship like just paying people to vote 736 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: for him, Like what we're going to take them to 737 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:52,840 Speaker 1: court and get them censured like three years into his 738 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 1: second term or like Don Jr's first term. I just 739 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 1: don't know how many rights so if you think about 740 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 1: how bribe like this would work, right, you go to 741 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 1: these people, you say, okay, you're you're probably you would 742 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 1: you would benefit from this cash being given to you. 743 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 1: And if they're conditioning that on a vote, how many 744 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: of those people are gonna say, I actually thank you 745 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 1: for this three hundred dollars? And also I believe that 746 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is not racist? Like that's what I don't get. 747 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 1: And I get I understand that they are. How do 748 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 1: they ensure they get thee because you call full someone 749 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 1: cynically cynically you're like, okay, well it's other people of 750 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 1: color entering the community. So there's there's gonna be a 751 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 1: level of trust there. But at a certain point, you're 752 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 1: gonna look at somebody supporting Trump that's black, and you're 753 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 1: gonna be liked, explain to me all this other ship. 754 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 1: But I don't know. I mean, I'm sure there are 755 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 1: people who unless it's like a thing where it's like 756 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 1: I feel like you'd have to be closer to the 757 00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: election for that to be effective and saying like you'll 758 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 1: come back let me like I need to know you. 759 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know how that actually translates 760 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 1: to actual votes aside from being some weird pr campaign 761 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,319 Speaker 1: that I'm not sure is actually going to change anyone's mind, 762 00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,799 Speaker 1: because if anyone needs money like that, I don't know 763 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 1: if we're gonna suddenly be like, oh thank god, Donald Trump, 764 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 1: You're gonna be like this person was giving away. It's 765 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 1: not a small amount of money, right, No, that's a 766 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,840 Speaker 1: lot of money. Yeah, But I just don't know. I 767 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: don't I'm not sure sort of the psychologically how that's 768 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 1: going to actually sway somebody if considering what I think 769 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:22,200 Speaker 1: only Trump got only maybe eight percent, seven percent of 770 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 1: the black vote in what that's gonna do to improve 771 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 1: those numbers? And you can list off the famous people 772 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:32,399 Speaker 1: or celebrities that are yeah black Trump, I think it's 773 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:38,959 Speaker 1: three as Candice owns, Yeah, um yeah. I think they're 774 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 1: probably just looking to like shave a couple of percentage. Yeah, 775 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: And it's just so cynical, just pleased. I mean, like, 776 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 1: come on, like this is the point where really the 777 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 1: courts need to intervene and like this is an absolute joke. 778 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 1: But again, we're talking about the erosion of our institutions. 779 00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 1: We're talking about making the law irrelevant. And if that's 780 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 1: the case, then yeah, ship, this is gonna keep going. 781 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna take one more quick break. We'll 782 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 1: be right back, and we're back, and let's talk about 783 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:23,080 Speaker 1: the coronavirus. There's just a lot of bullshit going around. Yeah. Well, 784 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 1: the World Health Organization is now having serious talks trying 785 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:30,880 Speaker 1: to be like, Okay, maybe this is actually we need to, uh, 786 00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 1: you know, ring the alarm on this thing. Uh. But 787 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 1: also people in the definitely in the United States are 788 00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 1: starting to hear about the coronavirus and get very interested 789 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:43,719 Speaker 1: in it. Uh. And just looking at some of the 790 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 1: search terms, some of the search traffic. I don't know 791 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 1: if we are this fucking dumb or we're just doing 792 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: it for the lolls. But Google Trends calculated there was 793 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 1: a surge along with coronavirus, that there was corona beer 794 00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:04,839 Speaker 1: virus and be or a virus. So are they not related? Yeah? 795 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 1: What did you think it is? No? Go ahead, no, 796 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 1: no, no no, I say right now? What is it? I do? 797 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: I just didn't know if it was like cured by 798 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:16,319 Speaker 1: it or like somehow like they just like, you know, 799 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:20,759 Speaker 1: somebody made up the name wow they were drinking, or 800 00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:23,800 Speaker 1: it was caused by it. But I just googled Corona 801 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: beer virus. Yeah, it's from drinking old coronas. Yeah, they 802 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 1: said they were the third terms, fifty seven percent of 803 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,879 Speaker 1: people were searching for beer virus, there remaining forty three 804 00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 1: Corona beer virus. Uh and in Hawaii, New Mexican, Kansas, 805 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:42,319 Speaker 1: they're searching beer beer virus more than anybody. Nice. I 806 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean it makes sense if you just 807 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 1: heard it conversationally, like Corona what what? What does that mean? 808 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:54,200 Speaker 1: The beer? Yeah? But you know, I guess this is 809 00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 1: where we're at these days. They look and you know, 810 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 1: if people trying to educate themselves, fantastic, But well the 811 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:03,319 Speaker 1: symptoms are they similar to a cult though? So I 812 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: wonder if there's going to be a rush of people 813 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 1: maybe thinking that they have the virus. Yeah, this search 814 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 1: for symptoms actually has been even more significantly searched because 815 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: people are truly I think once they realize, okay, it's 816 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 1: not from drinking corona. What is this? Oh it's a 817 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 1: terrible illness. Okay, now what is going on? Yeah, it's 818 00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: also a situation where uh, you know, it says it's 819 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:30,360 Speaker 1: surging on Google trends, but like that was not a 820 00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 1: search that exists at all, probably before. So it's not 821 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:39,920 Speaker 1: like it's not like they're saying it's of corona virus. 822 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 1: Searches are about the beer. It's just saying that there's 823 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,759 Speaker 1: a surge in that specific search term. So, and how 824 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:49,279 Speaker 1: many confirmed cases have they got now in the US 825 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 1: over a hundred and time? I think ye last time 826 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:56,000 Speaker 1: I looked um and yeah, I think it says in 827 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 1: China's I think a hundred and thirty one people have 828 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:03,440 Speaker 1: already had away from it. Right, Let's talk about Papa's. 829 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:09,400 Speaker 1: So Papa's is saying that Beiance's Ivy Park was possibly 830 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:12,799 Speaker 1: inspired by their colors. I mean, who knows, you know, 831 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:16,520 Speaker 1: we just put some two images together. Can people are 832 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 1: in colors? Oh? The colors? The color ways? Yeah, I 833 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 1: don't know. T Mobile tried to brand magenta the magenta 834 00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: they trademarked, I think, a specific, very specific shade right, right, 835 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 1: but still you can't color when they're not trying to 836 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 1: say that they merely have all kinds of creative ownership 837 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 1: over it. There's just a lot of people on Instagram 838 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 1: was sort of they were holding up juxtaposing the new 839 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 1: Ivy Park line with as most people know from the 840 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:47,319 Speaker 1: Popeye's chicken sandwich graze. Many people are also familiar with 841 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,799 Speaker 1: that foil bag the sandwich comes in and we see 842 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:55,839 Speaker 1: it just an interesting uh parallel here maroon with orange. Right, 843 00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 1: I's been doing that too, And they're not consciousness. It's 844 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,319 Speaker 1: not even like a thing a Popeyes like how dare they? 845 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 1: It's just like it's one of those things that started 846 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: off on Twitter. A few people go like joking Lee, 847 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 1: They're like, how is Beyonce gonna not credit Popeyes? This 848 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:13,000 Speaker 1: is the exact same as their uniforms. This is hilarious 849 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 1: and it's amazing. But then the fast food restaurant is 850 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:19,399 Speaker 1: now like, hold on a second, how can we make 851 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 1: money off of this? And they have a website called 852 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:27,080 Speaker 1: www that look from popeyes dot com where they have 853 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:30,720 Speaker 1: their own sort of like maroon and orange inspired clothing. 854 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 1: It's pretty simple. But the thing that I think is 855 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 1: is nice that the proceeds go to their like uh, 856 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 1: their charitable foundation. So it's not just being like, hey, 857 00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:44,440 Speaker 1: by this or whatever there, it's it's a bit of serious. 858 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 1: Is the charity involved with them having all the chicken 859 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:52,439 Speaker 1: sandwiches in stock that we need that we require as 860 00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 1: a culture. I don't know. Oh, if that's like a mandate, 861 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,080 Speaker 1: like that's part of their mission statement. Yeah, I don't know. 862 00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,560 Speaker 1: We should, we should dig deeper. I've always been put 863 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:04,600 Speaker 1: off popeyees because the first time I arrived in l A, 864 00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:06,960 Speaker 1: one of the first things I saw was someone taking 865 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: a dump in the parking lot. Oh yeah, yeah, and 866 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 1: it was It's a shame it had to happen. There 867 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 1: could have you know, coming into l A could happen 868 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:17,279 Speaker 1: at any number of It could have could have happened then. Yeah, 869 00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:22,000 Speaker 1: and maybe it was a protest, just kind of Look, 870 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,719 Speaker 1: a lot of us were not happy with the fact 871 00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:26,399 Speaker 1: that they were out of the sandwich. Yeah. When did 872 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,040 Speaker 1: you arrive the first time? I just want to check 873 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 1: some dates. When was that? Because check? You know it 874 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,800 Speaker 1: was not me, Probably because you took a dump in 875 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,439 Speaker 1: the church's chicken parking right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, it wasn't 876 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 1: It was in the middle of the day, you know, 877 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:47,360 Speaker 1: it could have been post lunch. Uh. Let's talk about 878 00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:52,040 Speaker 1: Hunger Games. There is a new Hunger Games book coming 879 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:57,839 Speaker 1: from authors Suzanne Collins, and it seems I don't know, 880 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 1: it's it's interesting. It's a pretty well so first of 881 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 1: all great ideas work out really well. Uh. And early 882 00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 1: announcements detailed that the story would be set sixty four 883 00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 1: years before the first Hungry Games book, So that's a 884 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:17,240 Speaker 1: long time uh. And it sounded fine, Yeah, like, okay, 885 00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:22,680 Speaker 1: what's the lead up to this uh societal ending troubled era, right, 886 00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:24,959 Speaker 1: because there's a lot of like mythology in the book 887 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 1: about like the first Rebellion and the civil war that 888 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: was fought between the districts and the capitol seventy five 889 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: years ago. So uh, it sounded promising. And both the 890 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:38,400 Speaker 1: name and the artwork Indadatta connection with Cataness, who is 891 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 1: the protagonist of the original series obviously would be before 892 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:45,760 Speaker 1: she was born, but maybe it's about her ancestor or something. Uh. 893 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 1: And then there also there's a movie already in the works, 894 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:53,400 Speaker 1: which makes sense. But this last week we learned that 895 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:59,319 Speaker 1: the book is actually about uh, Donald Sutherland's character, the 896 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 1: President President Snow President Snow as a young man, as 897 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:08,759 Speaker 1: a young like hot dude who then becomes a fascist. Yeah, 898 00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 1: who then becomes a fascist And it's like, hey, like 899 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 1: he but he's the protagonist. They're like they're basically trying 900 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:20,160 Speaker 1: to uh, you know, Anakin Skywalker this ship, but it 901 00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:24,239 Speaker 1: just seems I don't know. Doesn't Armie Hamma have that 902 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,360 Speaker 1: role nailed down? He always plays that sort of character, 903 00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:31,960 Speaker 1: doesn't he? Who like the complicated Hotma? Yeah? Did? Was 904 00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:35,759 Speaker 1: he the Winklevoss Twins? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, he would probably 905 00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 1: be a good a good choice for this role. But 906 00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 1: do we need to see that narrative of someone who 907 00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 1: a fascist who just murders poor people? The synopsis? Literally, 908 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:48,880 Speaker 1: this is this? How did he get so angry? What 909 00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:51,360 Speaker 1: if there was more to him than we knew? What 910 00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,640 Speaker 1: if he could be crazy? As it may sound a 911 00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:59,320 Speaker 1: hero question? What does that's a literally that's a quote 912 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 1: year young president Snow is a quote teenager born to 913 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 1: privilege but searching for something more. He's also friendly and charming, 914 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:16,920 Speaker 1: So I okay, what the who? Who wants that book? Yeah? 915 00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:19,240 Speaker 1: Oh but hold on, isn't this what the Star Wars 916 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:22,040 Speaker 1: prequels did? Right? It is what the Wars prequels did, 917 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:26,160 Speaker 1: But that wasn't at a time when we were living 918 00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 1: through actual fascist creeping right. Um? And also this a 919 00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 1: lot of young people who you know, a lot of 920 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 1: young people are struggling with being converted to fascism by 921 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:47,560 Speaker 1: like YouTube videos and algorithms that, you know, just pull 922 00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:52,600 Speaker 1: people in that direction. Uh. And this was used as 923 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:57,320 Speaker 1: a touchstone as like, but you know, fascism is not great, 924 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,080 Speaker 1: and now they're like, yeah, but what if it is 925 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 1: is understandable and kind of chill. Hey, look on the 926 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 1: road to fascism, you could be a pretty chill guy. 927 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:09,839 Speaker 1: And that's what the responsibility of all is in that. 928 00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 1: I mean, to me, I'm curious what comes first, the 929 00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:16,839 Speaker 1: book or the movie deal? Right? Was this book being 930 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 1: written to be able to give a platform for the movie, 931 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,000 Speaker 1: because from what I understand, lions Gate is also working 932 00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:24,319 Speaker 1: with her on this book, So it's not like she's 933 00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 1: just out here writing a book and the production companies 934 00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:31,920 Speaker 1: that distributors have nothing to do with that creative process. 935 00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:35,520 Speaker 1: It seems like they're also developing this story with her. 936 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 1: So is that that? So? I'm like, at this point, 937 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:40,160 Speaker 1: do you need a book or you just do you 938 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 1: have the book for the cover to say it's based 939 00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:43,960 Speaker 1: on the books, rather than saying, like, you know, be 940 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:45,839 Speaker 1: great as a prequel. Can you write a prequel? Because 941 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:47,359 Speaker 1: I think we make a lot of money here here's 942 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:52,239 Speaker 1: in advance. Yeah, I mean, it's so the series has 943 00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:55,799 Speaker 1: always been about an impoverished young woman fighting against the 944 00:55:55,800 --> 00:56:00,640 Speaker 1: evils of an authoritarian government that literally murders poor people 945 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:05,439 Speaker 1: for entertainment, and now they're pivoting to a story about 946 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 1: how the leader of that fascistime regime was once a 947 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:15,239 Speaker 1: pretty cool dude. And that's that's where we at. Um, Hey, 948 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:17,160 Speaker 1: you know, well we gotta see we got we gotta 949 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:20,400 Speaker 1: read it with our own eyes. Yeah, and may be 950 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:23,120 Speaker 1: a loser, right, you know. And then it's more like 951 00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:26,319 Speaker 1: a like a Joker type story where they're like, see, man, 952 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 1: that's what happened, is right? Yeah? Uh yeah, So it's 953 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 1: coming out in Awesome. We're gonna play young Donald Sutherland. 954 00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:37,480 Speaker 1: I think Army Hammer is actually a perfect choice. Yeah, 955 00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:44,279 Speaker 1: guys are very interesting, like this rendering Keith someone no, um, 956 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:51,200 Speaker 1: maybe is he got kids? Literally get his grandson, yeah, 957 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:54,879 Speaker 1: to play him in it. He's a daughter. I met 958 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,279 Speaker 1: his daughter. I think. I don't know. I wonder if 959 00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:59,719 Speaker 1: it's the kind of almost the reverse of because I 960 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:02,760 Speaker 1: remember but about a year ago sort of a pining 961 00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 1: something what I'm looking for, like how many war films 962 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 1: we have and more ones were coming because Dunkirk was 963 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:13,279 Speaker 1: coming out and just watched thee I keep saying the 964 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:18,400 Speaker 1: nineteen seventeen like it's a band, which is phenomenal. But 965 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:20,080 Speaker 1: I was like, I feel like we've seen this now. 966 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 1: Haven't we seen enough war films? And they're always just 967 00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:25,440 Speaker 1: you know, like we've made them, but we need to 968 00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:29,120 Speaker 1: keep making more. Have we seen them where the authoritarians 969 00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 1: are the good guys? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I mean just 970 00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:37,479 Speaker 1: think about Prospect and shift.
