Oh god, Claire, was 170 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: something that you think is overrated? Purchasing clothes online? Oh 171 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 1: ding ding, Claire? Why overrated? I think the convenience is 172 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 1: just not worth it when it comes to you getting 173 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: shoes in the mail that you think are going to 174 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: fit there, you're the number says yeah, this is the 175 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: number I'm put and then that's what and you were 176 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: and then you're like, um, look like a damn clown. 177 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: Look it doesn't The backs of my ankles are writ 178 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: to shred somehow, and U, it's just not worth it. 179 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: Just go to the store to get your stuff. I agree. 180 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: As a plus size shopper, sometimes I have no choice 181 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: but to order online, and it sucks on two folds. One. 182 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: Sometimes I'll buy something super cute, but then I get 183 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 1: it and the feel is wrong. Like I bought this 184 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: like adorable purple skirt, but it feels like a sleeping bag. 185 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: I would remember made this purchase in a store. Okay, 186 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: it makes swishy sounds and I walk in it. But 187 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: I won't return anything because I have to go to 188 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: a post office. I got a print that I don't 189 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: have a printer. Okay, what year is it? I can't 190 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: make returns thirty years old, I still can't do it. 191 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: So if I buy something, I'm either keeping it or 192 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: I found a good will. It's not that far from 193 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: my place. I'll just drop it off there, hopefully somebody 194 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: else can't use it. Was smart enough to go to 195 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: a store to purchase clothing that actually works for them? 196 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: What the first world problem? But like a nightmare of 197 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: a first world problem? Well, they I just should I 198 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 1: should say, they should just say what the clothes feel like? 199 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: When yeah, what do you feel like sleeping bag the 200 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: spider web sleeping bag swish with a spider web finish, 201 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: Like yeah, I feel like I yeah. The convenience is 202 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: fully taken over by like all the impracticality of it 203 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: and the the returns and the need for a printer, 204 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: which nobody, nobody has a printer, right, like those those 205 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: are for work. Like if you if you still work 206 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: for some place that has a a printer, then maybe 207 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: you can go in there. But it's it's the worst, 208 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: and it is like the idea of online shopping is 209 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: completely based around having a printer in most cases, right, 210 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: you know what? And it's fun because it's bizarre. I 211 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: love online shopping, like the actual act of And I'm 212 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: putting it in the car and I'm looking at the 213 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: things that I found a deal and then Honey found 214 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: me an extra bonus deal. Love it. And then it's 215 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 1: always buyers or more. I'll get five things and like 216 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: two of them will be like spot On, and I'll 217 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: be like, I guess I own this. Yeah, it's I 218 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: compulsively buy things online, things I don't need, but it 219 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: feels good to buy stuff. Brick and mortar is like 220 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: just in terms of sales figures and just like the 221 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: future of commerce, it seems like people just generally are 222 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: agreeing with this overrated and are no longer like shopping 223 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: as much online and are I was talking. I have 224 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: a friend who works in the finance and of this stuff, 225 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 1: and I don't usually understand what he's talking about, but 226 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: that was one thing he said was like, yeah, like 227 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: people now are shopping more brick and mortar stores, and 228 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: they're like going to the stores with like like the conversion. Right, 229 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: It's not like they just go in and absolutely wander around. 230 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: They like go know what they want and buy it, 231 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: which makes sense because there I keep hearing this word covid. 232 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what it means, but yeah, people are 233 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: smarter than me, is what I just heard. There, like 234 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: people taking time to actually search for what they want, 235 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: go to the store, pick it up like geniuses. Uh listen, 236 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: if that's you, I'm appreciative, thank you for not doing 237 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: the fast fashion they can. Like I wonder if like 238 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: sales reps have adapted to the fact that we hate 239 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: them and like they have like backed off a little bit, 240 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: because I used to be a thing that any time 241 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: I hated clothes shopping because I didn't like just that 242 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: interaction like from the start, where it's just like a 243 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: weird fake like hey, like we're friends and tell me 244 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 1: your size and I'll go shopping with you. No, ma'am, 245 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: leave me alone, please, sir, I don't need it. What 246 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: I do want, though, is the champagne experience. Before COVID, 247 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: people's opening up stores all across America, and then they 248 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: got bought by Walmart and they were like closing all 249 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: of those down. It was horrendous. I was waiting for 250 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: them to open up one in l A because they 251 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 1: would greet you with a glass of champagne and then 252 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: you go shopping in their store and they have big 253 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: private dressing rooms, and I was like, that is all 254 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: I want in life, Like, if you greet me with 255 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: champagne instantly, this is a ten out of ten experience. 256 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: No matter what happens beyond this champagne, I'm a very 257 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: happy person. Bring back the like Bergdorfs, Meeme and Markets 258 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: style of shopping, the personal shoppers, the champagne. I would 259 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: like models in store of all sizes to wear the 260 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: clothes so I can see what they look like. While 261 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: I just like relax and chat with my friends. Have 262 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: you seen the Women? People watch it? It's a great movie. 263 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 1: This is what I want out of life. Shopping could 264 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: be better? Is always saying here, oh my gosh, clear 265 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: to its something that's underrated in your opinion. I recently 266 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: rented a convertible car I was visiting l A. Highly 267 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: underrated people. I'm gonna say everybody should should drive around 268 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: in a convertible at least once in their life, with 269 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: the threat of large objects falling off of other cars 270 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: and hitting you in the head. It's thrilling and it's like, 271 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: like music sounds better. I don't mean to sound like 272 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: some STU, but it's just, you know, it's just an 273 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: insane experience, and it was. I was specifically driving in 274 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: l A. I don't know what it's like, you know, 275 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: and like Dallas or whatever, history shows it's not not 276 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: a good place to have a convertible, But I would 277 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: say that it's just so fun. I can't speak to 278 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: being a passenger in the back seat of a convertible 279 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: that seems maybe overrape but underrated, right driving a convertible 280 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: in l A. I just watched Thelma and Louise for 281 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 1: the first time, like a month ago, and so I'm 282 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: catching the vibes. I love the idea of one in 283 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: your hair, but I would absolutely have to wear a 284 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: scarf because like, after half an hour at full speed, 285 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: it would be an issue. But there is something about 286 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,399 Speaker 1: driving around certain parts of l A, specifically pretty much 287 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 1: anywhere on the East Side, you start to feel way 288 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: more glamorous and or cool, depending on which night. If 289 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: you're in Beverly Hills and you're driving around in a 290 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: car that's like clean and semi nights, you're like, my god, 291 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: am I wealthy over here? Like I feel very posh 292 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: and it's amazing. Or you know, if you're like in 293 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 1: East Los Angeles and the fashion district, suddenly you're like, oh, 294 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: this is where cool kids are and I'm here, so 295 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: therefore I must also be cool. And I can only 296 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: imagine that convertible is just really heightening all of those feelings. 297 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: I'm around covortible. You've convinced me you can put the 298 00:17:55,640 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: top up to right like it's not and at some 299 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: point point putting the top up for else the top 300 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: of your head will get sunber. Yeah, what happened to me? 301 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: That's just I like to undercut people. Who are excited 302 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 1: about a thing by tempering it with the practical. Uh, well, 303 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: you can always put the top up and wear a hat. 304 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: And I've never I don't think I've ever driven in 305 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: a convertible. I think I've only been in a like 306 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: one of the jeep wranglers when I was in high 307 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 1: school that are like made of paper except for a 308 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: roll bar. And it was like driving on the highway 309 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: with that person was a very like violent experience. Oh no, 310 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 1: but just just because it's like everything is like, you know, 311 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: flapping so hard.

Also, it seems 315 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: like generally, like fifty plus men have like old school 316 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 1: convertibles that they proudly drive around in and like kind 317 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 1: of will make eye contact with you as they as 318 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: they pull up in there convertible.

Yeah, it was like, I don't know. 335 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,959 Speaker 1: It's kind of written in the same voice as a 336 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: piece in like a culture or society page where at 337 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 1: one point they recommend, like before settling into your seat 338 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 1: or spot, ask yourself, if there's an attack, what will 339 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 1: I do? It only takes a moment to answer this 340 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: question before you sit back, relax and enjoy your outing. 341 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: So flick practical tips for going out, having a good 342 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: weekend but also being vigilant and keeping your fucking head 343 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: on a swivel in case of attack from a shooter something. 344 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: I kind of this is my life. I've been doing 345 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: that right, first of all, But I also think it's 346 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: like human follows it up with think of it as 347 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: making a regular deposit in a survival bank and then 348 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: if an emergency arises, being able to make up potentially 349 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: life saving withdrawal. That is the darkest ship I have 350 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: ever heard in my entire life, and the idea that 351 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: these tips are both practical, possibly necessary, and it's just 352 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: it's so deeply distorted, particularly when you you know, with 353 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: the shooting in Illinois recently and hearing from and about 354 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: the children involved there. I don't know if you guys 355 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: saw the video of like an entire high school band 356 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 1: just taking off and meaning when they heard the shots fire. Oh, 357 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: I don't know, satire or or necessary ingredients? What do 358 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: we think? It feels like satire and also necessary. So 359 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,120 Speaker 1: we open with a word about the importance of advancing 360 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: your location, which is like their security expert operator speech 361 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,679 Speaker 1: for like doing advance planning and research. So they're like 362 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: you neo libs love doing homework, So just like start 363 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: looking at the schematics and escape plans for every building 364 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: you occupy before you go, and and then you can 365 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: just you know, be assured that we're we're gonna have 366 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: a good time. Everybody can relax, and you know, if 367 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: someone comes in shouting something incoherent about you being a 368 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: child groomer and starts spraying gunfire everywhere or whatever, you'll 369 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: you'll know what to do. You're ready for everything down 370 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: to clown baby. And then yeah, that so then they 371 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 1: get into the real ship, like, okay, so what happens. 372 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: They're here, they're shooting at you, and make yourself as 373 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 1: small a target as possible, and then get away as 374 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: fast as you can, which is a very vague instruction. 375 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: Get away if you can tell which direction the shots 376 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: are coming from and you're not infinitely trampled by everybody 377 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 1: else trying to escape. It's giving the level of anxiety 378 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 1: I get every time I get on a plane and 379 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: they're like, so if there's an emergency, you're just gonna 380 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: reach under your seat. I'm like, these aisles are so 381 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: small to get out of my sea, get on the floor, 382 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: reach under there for that life preserver. Is it going 383 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: to protect me? For real there, you could just blow 384 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: it up with I don't believe any if this is 385 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: gonna work. Planes are safe, so hopefully not this time. 386 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, very anxiety inducing. Yeah, the first thing you 387 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: want to think about is which is get down, and 388 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: if you can determine which direction it's coming from, get away. 389 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: That's our general rule. The PURP tends to be wildly firing, 390 00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: so your very best bet is to be a small 391 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 1: target as you can and getting away as fast as 392 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: you can. And then they like give some suggestions about 393 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: like finding the most solid structure t hied behind, Like 394 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 1: using a car as a shield may not be ideal 395 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: if the vehicle is made of weaker materials like fiberglass 396 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: or plastic. If there's an option, concrete or brick walls 397 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: can be very helpful and would offer better protection than 398 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: stucco or sheet rock dividers. If it's a true heinous 399 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 1: active shooter who is looking to target individuals, getting to 400 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: a place you can't be seen is very helpful. I 401 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 1: love that. It's so funny to me, the like using 402 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: tactical and operator, Like you know how police use as 403 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: many words as possible to like describe something they're like, Well, 404 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: we encounter the individual and made a tactical approach to 405 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,199 Speaker 1: the Like they just said, getting to a place you 406 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: can't be seen as very helpful instead of like high, 407 00:24:55,680 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 1: motherfucker high, I'm gonna run to the nearest wall, but 408 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,160 Speaker 1: for I'm going to knock on it to make sure, yeah, 409 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 1: you're doing I'm putting my ear to the wall, looking 410 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: for the studs. Do a stud do a stud finder 411 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: test real quick. Make sure you're behind some something solid, 412 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: you know, Consult well all the homework you did before arriving, 413 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 1: all the advancing that you did to make sure you 414 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: are near a car that withstands bullets better than other 415 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 1: other cars exactly. Movies have taught me that will explode, 416 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 1: And then I'm it's in a different type of trouble. 417 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: But I think I think that the strategy of using 418 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: a lot of boring words to say the thing is 419 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: a way of like, I feel like I'm seeing them 420 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,439 Speaker 1: want like try and feel like they have control of 421 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: the situation, presidencying like hide. They're like, well, it's what 422 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 1: you're gonna want to do is getting to a place 423 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 1: you can't be seen with a shelter option peripheral that 424 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: keeps you behind something. It's just like, yeah, okay, you 425 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: got it. This line particularly chilling. Just like children playing 426 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: sports learn to react quickly to a fast pitch or 427 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: a pass from a teammate, they can be taught how 428 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: to react in an emergency very vague. This is beyond emergency. 429 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,239 Speaker 1: This is a mass shooting. Let's be very specific. And 430 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: so can adults, which is I don't want like Ford 431 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: shows to have to react to gunfire with like the 432 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: thought process of a marine. That's very disturbing to me. Yeah, yeah, 433 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,719 Speaker 1: we want your kids, Like I need to start training 434 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: my four and six year old to react to gunfire 435 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 1: with just like stony, like dead eyed, like cool, they're 436 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: they're like in a mess. Shooting. Calm is a superpower. 437 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 1: So that's what I'll start telling my kids is that, like, 438 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: you know how like you like the superpower really people 439 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: can fly and do stuff like that. The real superpower 440 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: you want to develop is desensitization to mass shootings. Even 441 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: all those superheroes become super after some sort of perfect 442 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:20,880 Speaker 1: traumatic avenge. Yeah yeah, this should be your origin story, baby. 443 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: And then so the part that like really made it, 444 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: like situated it within the logic of the police and 445 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: the police state that is has been pretty strong and 446 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: unshakable in American feels like it's using these opportunities to 447 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: get stronger. Is like up next is a FBI agent 448 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 1: they consold who says, one thing you have to realize 449 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: is no one knows how they're going to react or 450 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 1: respond when it happens to them. It is the most 451 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: average routine Monday moment of their day. And then gunmen 452 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 1: and mass shootings get more sophisticated over time, throwing more 453 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 1: advanced challenges that those trying to escape their lines of fire. 454 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: The Highland Park suspect, for instance, is alleged to have 455 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: taken a sniper's position from a rooftop on the parade route, 456 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 1: which gave him a tactical advantage. As a collective, we 457 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: underestimate the offender and the offender cohort every single day. 458 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear that from the FBI. The 459 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: FBI ad it yet, so first of all, like, I 460 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,439 Speaker 1: don't know that that's necessarily true, like the people I 461 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 1: don't know like that. That feels like them trying to 462 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: like that. That's what is particularly dispiriting is that they 463 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: are taking this narrative and rather than being like I 464 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: don't know, it's like real fucked up there, Like yeah, see, 465 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: this is what we've been saying, and they're getting better 466 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: at it, so we need more power and like everybody 467 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: needs to be trained to evade the these like super 468 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: mass shooters. Like that is the the narrative that they're 469 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: going to try and put out there. And the Washington 470 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: Post in the New York Times are just like so 471 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: wide open to what the funk ever the police want 472 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: to tell them, like they just report, report it without 473 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: without any questioning. There's no thought um on perspective. It 474 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: is the FBI's job to try to figure out, like 475 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: how would we keep people safe in the same way 476 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: that secret services responsibility, like how do we keep They're 477 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: not there to pass laws or specifically gun reform. So 478 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: I understand this line of thinking from someone in this 479 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: line of work, But then to s bee that at 480 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: people as though that is the ultimate answer to the 481 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: situation is chilling. I think petually because of the statement 482 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, if you haven't been shot at regularly, you 483 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: have no idea how you're going to respond. You might 484 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: freeze up, maybe you'd take off and like forget your 485 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: loved one. That has happened before, and just out of 486 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: natural fear so to to say you're gonna prepare. Nobody's 487 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: even these proud boys who are out here, you know, 488 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: trying to form the attacks and and thank goodness being 489 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: found out before anything happens, or or run into the 490 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: wrong crowd and get pushed back into their trucks or whatever. 491 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 1: Like they don't know for real, like what's going to happen. 492 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: They just have this idea of how they're going to respond. 493 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: So I I just this feels very much useless. It's 494 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: not going to be helpful to anyone, and real maybe 495 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: one or two people will be like brick wall, Okay, 496 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: where is one there? Go move? I just I just 497 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: think if you're going to be running on pure instinct, 498 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: if God forbid, you find yourself in one of these situations. Look, 499 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: did I repeatedly use my wife as a human shield 500 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: every time I heard a firecracker on July four? Like, yeah, maybe, 501 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: but that's instinct. We don't know how we're going to respond. 502 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: I think she gets it after some explaining, but yeah, 503 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: that's my truth. Yeah, and we respect that. If I 504 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: was particularly horrible for you guys this year, I've never 505 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: really had an issue with fireworks before, but this year. 506 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: Maybe it's because I have a dog who's terrified fireworks 507 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: and that put me a little bit on edge. And 508 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:09,959 Speaker 1: I also live in a neighborhood where they'll pop off 509 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: fireworks till like four in the morning. But this year, 510 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: every time a firework went off, I was like jumped 511 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: a little. It was kind of upsetting. It only reminded 512 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: me of gunfire. I had none of the childlike joy 513 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: of like, oh, sparkly thing in the sky. I was 514 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: just like it turned very much into a squid where 515 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: I was like, cut it out and do not need 516 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: the bombs right now. In my neighborhood, they start setting 517 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: stuff off, you know, kind of the moment it becomes 518 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: seventy five degrees or or warmer, And so most of 519 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: the fireworks I only hear and I don't see. Those 520 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: freaked me out. And I too have a dog, nown 521 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: so I'm seeing it through her eyes, and she's seeing 522 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 1: red cheet so much, and I feel so bad for 523 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: her and everyone with PTSD from gunfire and all, which 524 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: is happening more and more so I don't Maybe we 525 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: do those drone fun drone light shows. Yeah, it concerns 526 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: me about urchechnical overlords and their ability to see everything. 527 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: But you gotta give a little and take a little, 528 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: you know. So then then the article switches to talk 529 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: about how to deal with the terror, and it's can 530 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 1: I tell you not great news either. They basically recommend 531 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: doing stuff that gives you the illusion of control while 532 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: basically acknowledging that it isn't helping. So like they interview 533 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 1: a psychologist and a psychiatrist. First of all, the section 534 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: is called find a sense of purpose and control, and 535 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: they're like writing two members of Congress, protesting, fundraising and 536 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: starting petitions. Are always that regular people can help to 537 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: harness their fear of daily life in a society where 538 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: violence and devastation regularly dominate headlines. Duffy said, this is 539 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: the psychiatrist. There's no reason to think this wouldn't happen again, 540 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: and brings people hope, oddly is to brainstorm about what 541 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: do you think we can do about it? I think 542 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: people like the idea that they could contribute somehow to 543 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: some kind of solutions, somehow to some kind of solution. 544 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:19,719 Speaker 1: Those are marching orders, some weird existential marching orders. Find it, 545 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: find the energy within yourself in these dark days? Do 546 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: you be nice right to be to like politely reach 547 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: out to Congress members and protests in a way that 548 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 1: we the Washington Post will approve of and will not 549 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: claim was like worthy of arrest quote unquote violent. They 550 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: were so angry it was scary. Why are they being 551 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: like this? Throw some fundraising dinners for all your rich 552 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 1: friends and have them give you money to to do? What? 553 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: Have some celebrities sing a song? It will really invariate 554 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: Congress to do something about it. I guess yeah. I 555 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 1: would like who ask people if you stop saying, unless 556 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: you're a Baptist choir, don't sing when tragedy happens. It's weird. 557 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 1: Don't do that. It's bizarre. You did it when Roevie 558 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:12,800 Speaker 1: Wade got overturned and it was startling and strange. America 559 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 1: the beautiful, maybe not the time, not the place. I yeah, 560 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 1: I just this article just makes me feel like, Okay, 561 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: I don't think that there's anything new here in the 562 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: the The suggestion to write a letter just really both. 563 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: If you can write a letter so good it would 564 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 1: make our government act on gun safety. Why haven't you 565 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 1: pended already? I don't want to making your fault. But 566 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: you knew you had this secret power all along, and 567 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: you should have been writing well, they suggest this writing 568 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: letters and like starting petitions. More, it's not as like 569 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:55,280 Speaker 1: a thing that could feasibly have any impact. It's as 570 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: like a craft like crafting, Like crafting can be good 571 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:06,320 Speaker 1: for dealing with stress. So the fact that it could 572 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: contribute somehow to some kind of solution is probably the 573 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 1: weakest least specific like commitment that one could make. I 574 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 1: feel like, but yeah, I don't know. This does feel 575 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: like a larger trend where like the mainstream media seems 576 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 1: to be rather than being like, all right, well, this 577 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: is a you know, an endpoint. Uh, this is like 578 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: a line that has been crossed and we now need 579 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,280 Speaker 1: to like figure out what we do in this clearly 580 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: broken society, they have instead just like used the same voice, 581 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: the same tone, the same like mechanism for like getting 582 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: by in the world to just interview like the statistically 583 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: anomalous like group of anti choice like twenty something women 584 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 1: Like that was a big piece in the New York Times. 585 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: You know, worry about the safety of at Kavanaugh and 586 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: just give us tips for how to survive in a 587 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 1: fascist police state, like like become a police officer, basically 588 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 1: become all these articles on Trump supporters who had regrets 589 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 1: about it, and or Trump supporters who were like, why 590 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 1: doesn't my community like me anymore? I don't understand everyone's 591 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: so mean. Now, Yeah, we've really got to focus in 592 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: on who we're talking to and why in these situations. 593 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 1: And the thing is, I know that there are a 594 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,360 Speaker 1: lot of journalists out there who are like I would 595 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: never have chosen to cover this story this way, but 596 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 1: my editors and probably the money people above them, decided 597 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 1: that this was the best angle to take, and I 598 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: just bring back local journalism, I guess. Yeah, I don't know. 599 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: The ultimate listical, I think I'm surprised I didn't put 600 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 1: that as one of the options of things that you 601 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: can do that could somehow offer some kind of solution, right, 602 00:36:56,280 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 1: the ultimate listical? The society to its foundations helpful? But yeah, 603 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think people still look to the 604 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: New York Times and the Wahington Post as like, well, 605 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: sometimes they're good, but like they're not helping us out 606 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 1: of this situation. It would appear they are the cement 607 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 1: that holds this situation in place, and we need to 608 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 1: figure out other options or read them and you know, 609 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,760 Speaker 1: become like a sick operator who is like I ascertained 610 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: the individual assailant and by not underestimating the offender and 611 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 1: the offender cohort, that's the line. As a collective, we 612 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 1: underestimate the offender and the offender cohort every single day. 613 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 1: Like that is the moment I lost hope for anything 614 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,800 Speaker 1: getting fixed in this country. Is like they just printed 615 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 1: an FBI agent thing that yeah, I'm decoding this article 616 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: and it's same by a gun. Yes, yes, exactly, Okay, 617 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: absolutely solution to the problem. They wouldn't say that, but 618 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:13,840 Speaker 1: they do offer just like breathless accounts and like quotes 619 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: from somebody who offers both unarmed and armed defense tactical training, 620 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: so you know, and you know, say his name like 621 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,239 Speaker 1: five times so you know you know where to reach out. 622 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back 623 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: and talk about Popeye and we're back and all right, 624 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:48,919 Speaker 1: So it's barely been two weeks since the woke buzz 625 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: light Year movie scarred America with the scene in which 626 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 1: two women kissed for half a second. Some theaters actually 627 00:38:56,120 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: posted warnings in the lobby. I don't Joel. Did you 628 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 1: see the Buzz late year movie? No? It did badly, 629 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: which I had predicted. But I think people are like, well, 630 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: let's serves them right for not making it, serves them 631 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 1: right for choosing to expand a universe that should have 632 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: ended a movie ago. What are we doing? Disney Toy 633 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: Story was done and he had his adventure Buzz would 634 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: he grew up in a way that was profoundly written 635 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: and emotionally destabilizing. I I'm obsessed. I'm obsessed with the 636 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 1: first three Toy Story movies. They are so perfectly done 637 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: and the story for you could take it back. I 638 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:42,239 Speaker 1: don't need it, and I really truly definitely don't need 639 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:46,280 Speaker 1: a fake movie within a cinema that we never saw 640 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: Andy interact with dumb. Yeah. I also love Toy Story 641 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,320 Speaker 1: four and did not care about this movie. I was 642 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 1: confused and remain confused as why it exists. But now 643 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 1: we're onto the next controversy or pop out of the 644 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 1: Sailor Man like they're trying to re redo the Popeye 645 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:08,759 Speaker 1: comic strip, which, like, is, when was the last time 646 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 1: anybody read a newspaper comic strip? For reasons, other than 647 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: to be like, oh my god, they still make these, 648 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:21,839 Speaker 1: but like what it's I can't It's like it has 649 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 1: to have been decades for you have to the Boondocks, 650 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 1: the animated show came out of a college paper news 651 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 1: strip that then got picked up nationally. So that's early 652 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 1: two thousands. And I do think that there's like the 653 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 1: very long running comic strips that have their fan base, 654 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 1: albeit a small one. But I from a pop culture perspective, 655 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:52,360 Speaker 1: I don't think it's been in the quotes like guys 656 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: for a hot minute, right, So I feel like that 657 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: is what is happening here. I feel like the like 658 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 1: the people rebooting Popeye the Sailor Man have like made 659 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: a point to be like this is being updated for 660 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 1: a new, like inclusive storyline, probably with like some knowledge 661 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,359 Speaker 1: that it was going to stir up controversy with like 662 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 1: Breitbart and Newsmax. Who are piste? Can I need this headline? 663 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 1: Popeyes comic strip gets woke makeo for with more characters 664 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 1: who aren't heterosexual. Where are you a spinning at you? 665 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 1: A blue bluto has been a queer icon for years. 666 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:43,280 Speaker 1: The ultimate Bear, right, Yes, I mean I am sexually 667 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 1: attracted to Blueto. For sure, everyone is sexually attracted to Bluto. 668 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 1: I mean there has been no heterosexuality assigned to Popeye, 669 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,920 Speaker 1: at least in my eyes. Well, and also if you 670 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 1: consider the history of comics, like some of the early 671 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,760 Speaker 1: and specifically when it comes to like Sailors in the Navy, 672 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,880 Speaker 1: like there are a lot of homo erotic early sailor 673 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 1: cartoons from like the forties. This is the first I'm 674 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:13,759 Speaker 1: hearing of this. I mean, no, no, no, okay, it's 675 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,400 Speaker 1: like this. They're super popular even to this day, and 676 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 1: so I think to just again, they just want to 677 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,919 Speaker 1: ignore queer history at all costs. They're like it's new, 678 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,279 Speaker 1: and it's scary, and it's like it has literally been 679 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:29,399 Speaker 1: around you your whole life, even when it was like 680 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 1: undercover or quote in the closet, it was still vital 681 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,360 Speaker 1: and there. And so when these creators decide to acknowledge 682 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: these queer communities that have supported their content for decades, 683 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,320 Speaker 1: I don't understand how you can be upset about it. 684 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 1: It's like it's it's been here now, someone's just saying 685 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 1: I see you and I acknowledge you. When we're just 686 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: not going to force it to be hidden anymore, and 687 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:57,320 Speaker 1: they're like beside themselves about it. Get over it. Yeah. Previously, 688 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: Popeye cartoons have been full of racist character is, including 689 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 1: a nineteen one cartoon where a Popeye and his dad 690 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:08,319 Speaker 1: battle savage dark skinned natives, which even included a joke 691 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:12,840 Speaker 1: about slavery. So that is the the old, the classic 692 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:17,400 Speaker 1: Popeye that everybody who's complaining about this is like clinging to. 693 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,359 Speaker 1: I guess of course Popeye was there. Like so some 694 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,400 Speaker 1: people have pointed out Popeye was gender fluid and some 695 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 1: early strips, uh, donzo woman's clothes to act like a 696 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 1: child's mother. But it's like it is. At first, I 697 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 1: was like, oh, that's like a classic like comic or 698 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 1: like cartoon strips, but there's like a lot of there. 699 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 1: There's like one comic strip that I'm pretty sure this 700 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:47,640 Speaker 1: is real that somebody reproduced where Popeye says and I quote, 701 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,720 Speaker 1: don't you dare in cineric. I ain't been a good mother, 702 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: too sweepy. I've been more in a mother to him. 703 00:43:56,239 --> 00:44:00,719 Speaker 1: I am a perfect male sex mother. That's what I've been. 704 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 1: A father to him too. I've been even an aunt 705 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:07,920 Speaker 1: and an uncle and a cousin cousing to I do 706 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 1: not understand what Popeye like mispronounces or like the logic 707 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: of his pronunciation. I got the ability to act like 708 00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 1: both mother and father too. In think that's why I 709 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:24,839 Speaker 1: am such a good parent. I am amphibious. So that's 710 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 1: very literally like, yeah, it's not just like you put 711 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,320 Speaker 1: on a dress like full and infant who was crying, 712 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 1: which is like one of the first examples of somebody reproduced. 713 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 1: But it's like very much Popeye just being like I 714 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 1: am both a man and a woman and whatever, you know, 715 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:49,040 Speaker 1: gender identity. I want so fun. Got the hips to 716 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 1: carry off a skirt too, Like the figure is really 717 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 1: banging in this outfit. I just want to say, the 718 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 1: apron is cute. I love it. I love that Popeye 719 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 1: was just this been uncomfortable with their gender fluidity. And 720 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 1: I hope we see more of it, a lot more. 721 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:07,440 Speaker 1: And I hope con he needs to piss people off 722 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 1: because y'all are stupid. I can't stupid. I can't particularly 723 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,719 Speaker 1: with the amount of like transphobia, perreating I don't know 724 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 1: the entire universe right now, like it delights me to 725 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 1: make these people angry, get out of here. Yeah, that 726 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:25,799 Speaker 1: also seems to be a thing that The New York 727 00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 1: Times has clung to as like, well, the reason that 728 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 1: conservatives are met at liberals is because of like transphobia 729 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 1: and because like liberals have been like too you know, 730 00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: aggressive with their protection of like pronouns and stuff like that. 731 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 1: And yeah, that that just we've been we've been talking 732 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: about it, like for a while, that there's just this 733 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 1: like anti trans rage that is like bubbling onto the 734 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 1: surface of the country and you can see it and 735 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 1: like obviously think all of us like the way that 736 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,440 Speaker 1: they're coming, you know, it's a very clicheee, but like 737 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna come through one group and then immediately for 738 00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 1: the next. And oh my gosh, there was the craziest 739 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 1: Twitter thread. Somebody had taken a photo of these turf 740 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:15,560 Speaker 1: folks talking about how they're re analyzing all of their 741 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 1: past friendships and trying to figure out who was secretly 742 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 1: trans around them, and they're going based off things of 743 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 1: like she had broad shoulders because she must secretly not 744 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 1: be a biological woman, like what are you talking about? 745 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 1: And and then and then responding with and my friend 746 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 1: was so shocked and she won't admit it, just lying, 747 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: and it's like this is the most bananas thing I've 748 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:43,640 Speaker 1: ever heard of, And the idea that anyone could control 749 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 1: gender or or create boundaries around gender completely baffles me. 750 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: Or the other thing we've been seeing a lots of 751 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:54,319 Speaker 1: people like, oh, well, I don't like the word like menstruders, 752 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: or I don't like the phrase people who men straight. 753 00:46:56,760 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 1: But it's like people no matter what set of genitalia 754 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 1: they're born with, like if you're born with ovaries, doesn't 755 00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: automatically mean you're ever going to opulate. It's not a 756 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 1: foregone conclusion. So then to make it so that the 757 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:14,759 Speaker 1: only way to identify as a woman is based off 758 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:18,760 Speaker 1: of whether you mentorate or not, like, please leave, please? 759 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 1: What does that say to like women who have had hysterectovies, 760 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 1: what does it say to trans state of trans ment? Like, 761 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 1: It's just it's the most upsetting bananas things. I can't 762 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 1: even I can't.

You don't 769 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,719 Speaker 1: know science, you're not a biologist. Leave like I just 770 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:57,360 Speaker 1: uh we also just to put so much time and 771 00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:02,360 Speaker 1: energy into someone else's business, It's like this is nothing 772 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 1: to do with you. You're really trying to make something 773 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:09,560 Speaker 1: happen for you. Do know what is your obsession with 774 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 1: anyone else's gender identity? Period? Like why do you clearly 775 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,440 Speaker 1: you know you you're questioning something about yourself that scares 776 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 1: you always everybody within them? Are you so cling to 777 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 1: your ideology as the your definition of your gender? For example, 778 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,799 Speaker 1: if you identify as a woman and you're like, no, 779 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:34,279 Speaker 1: this I am a woman and this is the only 780 00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 1: way to be a woman, and I'm not interested in 781 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:40,400 Speaker 1: hearing any other viewpoints on womanhood. This is it. That 782 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 1: is the most close minded b as I've ever heard, 783 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,320 Speaker 1: And particularly for Turfs who are a part of the 784 00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:49,279 Speaker 1: queer community, y'all make me the most angry. I'm not 785 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 1: even gonna lie. I can't deal with you because you 786 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:57,760 Speaker 1: under you should understand inherently the spectrum of gender and 787 00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:01,040 Speaker 1: and to be to be a woman excludes other women? 788 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:05,839 Speaker 1: Is it's file right?

But not in Star Wars. 832 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:52,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard. It's hard to feel like anything 833 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 1: will change at this point when activism itself has been commodified. 834 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:02,160 Speaker 1: It's like we're all kind of preaching to the choir, 835 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:05,800 Speaker 1: and that choir is making money off of us preaching, 836 00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:09,839 Speaker 1: and it's just, you know, a vicious circle. So it's like, 837 00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 1: how do we how do we completely divorce ourselves from 838 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:18,239 Speaker 1: all of those institutions entirely and truly make some sort 839 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:22,959 Speaker 1: of change, And it feels hard and impossible. The pop 840 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:25,839 Speaker 1: culture is also the measure by which we've explored like 841 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 1: what is acceptable, you know, the boom of teenagers in 842 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:34,279 Speaker 1: the sixties getting their own financial demographic that we can 843 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:38,440 Speaker 1: actually track, and the teenagers spend a ton of money 844 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,320 Speaker 1: and they tend to be a viewpoint of like where 845 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:45,360 Speaker 1: is society going? And so when we track you know, 846 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,439 Speaker 1: societal changes that way, it makes sense that we sort 847 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 1: of distilled it, you know, over the past I guess 848 00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 1: now sixty years into like, oh, well, what's pop culture doing? 849 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 1: And it's interesting when we look at animation and cartoons 850 00:52:57,040 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 1: and stuff. We recently too, there was a ship for 851 00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 1: the new bay Max show on Disney Plus and bay 852 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:07,760 Speaker 1: Max is picking up tampons for somebody, which is great. 853 00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 1: I really love that we're including like girls frequently start 854 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,799 Speaker 1: vnetuating it, like you know, between eight and sixteen, and 855 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 1: so to bring that into the shows that they're watching, 856 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 1: I think that's really brilliant. You know, people need to 857 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:24,320 Speaker 1: see that. And there's a trans person talking about like, oh, 858 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 1: these are the pads I use, and like people had 859 00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 1: a complete meltdown over this, like what is this teaching children? 860 00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 1: Like some men have periods, period like and it's it's 861 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 1: a two second thing, like they literally pop in. They 862 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,160 Speaker 1: do have a trans right shirt on, it's just the 863 00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 1: trans flag and they're just like, hey, use these. And 864 00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 1: so I don't know, as somebody who's like very ingrained 865 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,360 Speaker 1: in pop culture and as also in touch with a 866 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:55,080 Speaker 1: lot of creators, I think it's interesting to say the least, 867 00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: to watch people behind the scenes really pushed I don't 868 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,880 Speaker 1: want to say agendas, but really make sure that folks 869 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:05,360 Speaker 1: are seen in a way that they haven't been seen before. 870 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: And to get children as early as possible, because you know, 871 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,360 Speaker 1: some of them are really facing a lot of brainwashing 872 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 1: they're going to have to undo later, and I think 873 00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:16,480 Speaker 1: it is important to be able to see it in 874 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,000 Speaker 1: pop culture so they can be like, oh, not everyone 875 00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:24,200 Speaker 1: thinks like my folks. Here's of course. I think. I 876 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 1: mostly think of like the insidious nature of the entertainment 877 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 1: industry itself, where they don't want to get in trouble 878 00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:37,080 Speaker 1: for seeing how they've been for the past hundred years, 879 00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:40,879 Speaker 1: which is exclusive and and all that. So I there's 880 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 1: a little bit of me that's like, Okay, I kind 881 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:47,480 Speaker 1: of see what you're doing here and with your insidious nature. 882 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:51,320 Speaker 1: But then of course that's amazing that we get to 883 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:54,320 Speaker 1: see these creators and these stories that we haven't seen before. 884 00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 1: It's going to be helpful ultimately, and it's good that 885 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:04,360 Speaker 1: they're feeling guilt enough that thing to make these pretty 886 00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:08,839 Speaker 1: drastic moves, right yeah. Yeah. And also I feel like 887 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:16,400 Speaker 1: the benefit of capitalism is like that they the democratic 888 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:18,880 Speaker 1: you know, they're trying to reach the most people because 889 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 1: that's the most profitable thing for them, right, and so 890 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:27,240 Speaker 1: like they are by like the logic of the market 891 00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 1: like being inclusive, which you know, not the best reason 892 00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:34,920 Speaker 1: to do it. But I do think that's at least 893 00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:38,719 Speaker 1: a benefit that we can see. I'll take it. I'll 894 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:43,160 Speaker 1: take small steps small steps. Yeah, I guess I was. 895 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:47,759 Speaker 1: I would differentiate between bay Max and a new Popeye 896 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:52,360 Speaker 1: comic newspaper, comic strip reboot, which seems specifically designed to 897 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:56,360 Speaker 1: be served up to the elderly, to be like face 898 00:55:56,920 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 1: get mad, so we can maybe get like a TV 899 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 1: show or like a streaming show out of this or whatever. 900 00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 1: But I guess that the thing that above to be 901 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,920 Speaker 1: out the most and on this front was Joe Biden 902 00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:15,240 Speaker 1: pointing to serial commercials, this proof that America was headed 903 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 1: in the right direction, all these biracial families, look at us, 904 00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 1: the future, the kids today, and I'm not I'm not 905 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:25,800 Speaker 1: just like, look at the commercials, like, when was the 906 00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 1: last time you saw that they wouldn't mean that's what 907 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 1: they want. On the one hand, I get it, like 908 00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:34,520 Speaker 1: Joe Biden has lived a very long time and there 909 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,359 Speaker 1: was a moment for many years of his life where 910 00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:42,520 Speaker 1: that wasn't visible. I understand. But at the same time, too, 911 00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:46,880 Speaker 1: for a politician to consider any kind of advertisement a 912 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:52,880 Speaker 1: solution to actual people's problems, that's very disheartening. It's also 913 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:57,879 Speaker 1: not his job. Yeah, yeah, alright, Claire. It has been 914 00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 1: truly a pleasure having you on the daily Za Geist. 915 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:04,120 Speaker 1: Where can people find you?
