1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of The

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: Weekly Zeitgeist. Uh. These are some of our favorite segments

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: from this week, all edited together into one NonStop infotainment

4
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:22,440
Speaker 1: laugh stravaganza. Uh yeah, So, without further ado, here is

5
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: the Weekly Zeitgeist. What if something you think is overrated? Sleep? Okay? Perfect?

6
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: How why is that? Man? Because I also know that

7
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 1: I don't need as much as I want, right If

8
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: that makes sense to Yeah, yeah, it's a it's a

9
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: sad realization that. Like also, I understand as you get older,

10
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 1: that thing in your brain lessons so they need less. Yeah,

11
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 1: that you need less sleep. There's like a chemical in there. Um.

12
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 1: But if I get three or four in a row

13
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 1: and then I'm up for an hour and I get

14
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: two or three after that, I'm pretty fine. Yeah, it's

15
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: like it's not ideal. I'd rather sleep for like six

16
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: hours to seven hours straight. But I also know I

17
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,839
Speaker 1: have this weird thing that a lot of people don't

18
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 1: is I know I'm going out on the road soon.

19
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 1: We don't get to sleep for twelve hours one night,

20
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 1: right right right? Right? Yeah, I mean it's it's more

21
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 1: health use we work. Oh that's like look luxurious it's like, no,

22
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: I'm really tired when not like I go to a

23
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: spa or anything. He's like, I got off a four

24
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: hour plane ride and I haven't slept for a month

25
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: and a half. And then I'm in you know, the

26
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: middle of nowhere, you know, Hampton Inn, and I'm like

27
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: slept there for twelve hours. Now does plane? Does traveling

28
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: on planes get you sick? Like do you ever like

29
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: get a cold? It always feel like you're putting a

30
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: hex on me right now. I don't like it. Yeah. Well,

31
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: I told Miles this morning he was having and I

32
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: was like, oh, are you sure you're not having a

33
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: heart attack? And that was I don't know. For some reason,

34
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: I'm just like putting that's not back there. You. First

35
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: of all, I come in and I'm like, yo, I'm

36
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: I'm about to go see this. Like I go to

37
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: this Japanese physiologist sometimes will take a look at my ship,

38
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: not like a chiropractor. Anyway, I slept weird, and I

39
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,239
Speaker 1: was like it felt like because the Japanese have a

40
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: different physiology, It's just like it's just you know, we

41
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: got that one extra muscle on the set. It's just

42
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: like this dude who like I don't need to go

43
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: through insurance. Who like for like sixty bucks, He'll just

44
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: get me, you know what I mean. I'm sorry I

45
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: had to that. Yeah, yeah, anyway, so I going, I'm

46
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: like yeo, this this is hurting. And then I kept

47
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 1: touching my shoulder and then out of nowhere, this dude

48
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: just looks up from his computer goes you think you're

49
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: having a heart attack, because I'm like, yeah, it's in

50
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 1: my right arm. I thought that's in your left could

51
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,679
Speaker 1: also be your right though, and like tried to web

52
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: m d me in my mind and then waste minutes.

53
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: I know, thank you, sir. You sent me down a

54
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: fucking spiral. Your heart hurt. That's the number one sign

55
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: when I touch it, I don't feel nothing moving right.

56
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 1: It's pretty cool. I think I'm running on vapors. That's great,

57
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 1: just inertia into politics. If you feel nothing in there,

58
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: that's the first time you could be our most gifted politics. Jamie,

59
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 1: What is something from your search history that's revealing about

60
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: who you are? Well, you know I'm back on li Mittel,

61
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: so you know I'm search history and math class for

62
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: adults for fun, and but you're seeing your back on

63
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: the what I'm back on. I'm back on Litel, which

64
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: means that my search history is going to be wild.

65
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: Mitel's bipolar medication. And as you get back on, you're like, oh,

66
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: I'm having strange feelings. I haven't thought in a while.

67
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: For example, I am a I really want to take

68
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: a math class, but I want to feel good. I

69
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: don't want to feel stupid. Right. You don't want to

70
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 1: be in there like a bunch of genius thirteen year olds. Right,

71
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: I was like math class for adults for fun. As

72
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: far as I know in the l A area, there's

73
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: no math classes for adults for fun. I'm sure there's

74
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: like a meet up group, right. I feel like meet

75
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: up dot com has something. We're like, you know, what's

76
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: meet up? Who's going to show up? Let's brush up

77
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: on our tri skills. I'm afraid it will be fucking

78
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: you know, men since in their right Really, the people

79
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: you could be falling back on are your menicines? Know,

80
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: I'm can I was canceled by so I want to

81
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: take for fun? I missed one week. I don't know

82
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: what the funk you guys are talking about. She's going

83
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: to the MENSA Annual gathering of the Juggalos in Arizona

84
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 1: for the official Mental Weekend. Yeah, but they canceled me

85
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: on on their Facebook group. I do remember that. Yeah,

86
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'm just getting the math thing because I

87
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: like maths. What is is there a specific kind of math?

88
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 1: Was like something you miss you want to do, like

89
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,119
Speaker 1: you know, No, I didn't like math, but I feel

90
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: but in retrospect, I feel like I just wasn't good

91
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 1: at math and then was like an asshole overachiever teenager.

92
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: I was like, fuck math, then I don't need math? Wow,

93
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: So what did you supplement math? I don't know, like

94
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: being rude to people on the computer. Yeah, and using

95
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,160
Speaker 1: Microsoft Paint a lot, so I would, but I I

96
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: was like, you know what, I didn't give math affair shake.

97
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: I gotta go back to math. And it's been I've

98
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 1: been having math dreams. I've had multiple dreams where I'm

99
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: taking a math class and I feel great. So I

100
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: go to take a juco class community college class that

101
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: I was. I was looking at that. Yeah, I mean

102
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: I might have to wait till next semester. I don't

103
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: have to wait if there's Ellie's getting If you're a

104
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: math professional, math tutor, math teacher, I'll do it. I'll

105
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: do a class with you. Yeah, you should contact you

106
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: have a friend activity of like man Miles and I

107
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: were in math last night. So you're not hoping to

108
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: really like get anything practical out of it. It's just

109
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: more of like I just want to make brain want

110
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 1: craves it. Yeah, I just I think. I think if

111
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: I applied myself, I could be better at math. But

112
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: I won't know until I take a maths Is that

113
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 1: something that like that you run up against on a

114
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: daily basis. You're like, no, I'm good at addition and subtraction.

115
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: So the building blocks of maths that obsess my main

116
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 1: math activities I do now is adding and subtracting. But

117
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: I want to get back into you know, long division.

118
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: I want to get back to remind maybe some axes

119
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: and even some shapes because geometry was really where I

120
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 1: fell off in high school of like fuck math proofs,

121
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: mrs fully did me dirty. I got my first C

122
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 1: in geometry and then I was like I'm doone. Math

123
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: is done. That is over. My geometry teacher had like

124
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: an American psycho vibe. He had like the wildest tan

125
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: like intense tan, like a leathery tan. As he had

126
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 1: straight slicked back hair, like no, not like I passed

127
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: out in the desert, like he was hitting the bed.

128
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: He was hitting the bed and then had like straight

129
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 1: slick back hair, and his teeth had a film on

130
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: it that could only be described as chronic. My Algebra

131
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:59,239
Speaker 1: two teacher, he was obsessed with corn. He was no

132
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: the fact that it's in a lot of our food,

133
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 1: and he would have like that Thursday he would pass out.

134
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 1: He'd be like, it's corn spiracy Thursday, and he'd pass

135
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: out handouts about how corn is going to funk us

136
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: all up. And he pointed our snacks and be like,

137
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 1: what's the number one ingredient? And then he'd be like,

138
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: I don't gotta check. It's corn. So I had some

139
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: bad math experiences. Yeah, it sounds like because my experience

140
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: with math is that I have been more like amazed

141
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: at how little I use any of my math education,

142
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: like enriched, but it's just addition and subtraction for me.

143
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: But that's just me ambitious. I'm constantly finding myself having

144
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: to draw out bell curves in three dimensions. You do

145
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 1: do that a lot. Maybe that's why I lean on

146
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: you for my bell curves and therefore I don't need

147
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: to be able to be that friend for you. I

148
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: appreciate that. Uh. And just a cautionary tale I wanted

149
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: to bring up because this could have been me. In fact,

150
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: it was me on my Space in two thousand four.

151
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: But let me just read you from the Idaho State Journal. UH,

152
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: this story about a man who was using social media

153
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: uh in an inappropriate way. It says a Facebook post

154
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: requesting fast food in exchange for an illegal substance led

155
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: to the arrest of an Idaho Falls man. The Idaho

159
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: posted on his personal Facebook page earlier that day offering

160
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 1: a graham of marijuana wax to anyone who would bring

161
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: him McDonald's or Burger King marijuana wax. So that is

162
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: that was that was That's what I was referring to.

163
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 1: So the wax concentrated form of marijuana, which they now

164
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: dab would call him dabs in the street. That is Yeah,

165
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 1: that's what I know. No wonder you didn't infiltrate that

166
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: team gang. You're like, Dad, you're just like dabbing your

167
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: pizza slice living like with the dress. It's bro cream, right.

168
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: They're like, what, lady, you're out of the scooter game

169
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: from my Lime Gang? Oh Lime Scooter Gang. Yeah, I mean,

170
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: I just it's so funny to me that a why

171
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: is somebody snitching on this guy? He was clearly just

172
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: a lazy stoner who was saying like, this is the

173
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: barter economy. It seems like a fair shake. You know,

174
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 1: he had me at Star Lipper, Yeah, stuck on? What

175
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: do you think kiss? Yeah? Right? Or he has like

176
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: a really weird bottom lip. This is really, you know,

177
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 1: a scourge on the Star Lipper name, and I want

178
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: to stand for it. Or maybe is it pronounced star

179
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,679
Speaker 1: Lipper star Lipper. We don't know where the emphasists. There's

180
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: only one piece, so maybe it's star Liper. I didn't

181
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: want to say star liperlighter. Let's stick with star Lipper.

182
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: That's the only way. I'm sure we'll be talking about

183
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 1: him a lot. Yeah, I can't move on thinking his

184
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: name is star running from Congress, Yeah, pretty soon enough.

185
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 1: I need to know how to pronounce that, and I

186
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: would vote for him because he would probably have some

187
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: pretty interesting ideas on the economy. Although I would say that,

188
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: I mean, like in California, a graham of marijuana wax

189
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: for like the good stuff would be well over fifty dollars,

190
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: so hopefully he was asking for fifty dollars or the

191
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: fast food if he was like, I'll give you fifty

192
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,199
Speaker 1: dollars worth of this drug for a Hamburger, and I

193
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: would have serious concern about this man, about don't want

194
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: to have him any Yeah, And I mean, but he's

195
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: a giver. He is Justice for Justice first Star Lipper,

196
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: What is something you think is underrated? Underrated? I had

197
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: to write it down because maybe it was underrated in

198
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 1: my head too. Oh oh, I just watched The Dangerous

199
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: World of Comedy on Larry. Uh yeah, the guy who

200
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: the guy who directed at Larry, the guy who directed Board,

201
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: the guy I think of his Charles. I think, yeah,

202
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: that's right. I think it is Larry Charles. Yeah, it's

203
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 1: really it's really yeah, Like I don't know, maybe because

204
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: I've been at home six so I think it's underrated,

205
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: but maybe everyone's watching it. I don't know. I have

206
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 1: not seen it just started. I heard about it when

207
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: they were first like talking about releasing it and making

208
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 1: it and then I guess it. Did it just come

209
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: out or yeah, it just came out. Yeah, people were

210
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: starting to hear about it. What is the general premise?

211
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 1: I know, it's just about comedy and different parts of

212
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: the world, right, I mean he goes to like conflict

213
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 1: zones and he's like, is there a stand up comedian here?

214
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: You know? And there are a stand up comedians or

215
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: like humorous videos and they're like in the Iraq or

216
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,559
Speaker 1: you know, Libya. He interviews some isis guys about the

217
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 1: sense of humor. Really they're not that funny. It turns

218
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: out a yeah, yeah serious, yeah yeah yeah, it's like

219
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 1: what do you guys like pratt falls right, like the

220
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: legitimate we are like yeah, no, we we laughed sometimes,

221
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: Like there's the when you're dragging the bodies of people

222
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: you just killed behind your jeep, like right, you find

223
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 1: yourself laughing a lot because it's just funny to watch

224
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: them bounce around. Uh so yeah, it's like kind of

225
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: a dark but psychological look at the roots of comedy.

226
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 1: Uh yeah. I heard him interviewed on Chopot Trap house.

227
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: Actually it was a good, good interview. I'm excited to watch.

228
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: Was it like super heavy to watch or was it? No,

229
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 1: It's very refreshing. And you know, you have like you

230
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: have comedians who were like, yeah, I was abducted by

231
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 1: al Qaeda, but then you know, when we were getting tortured,

232
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: I think he tortured me less because I started cracking

233
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: jokes as a way of surviving, you know. And it's

234
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 1: like a refreshing It's not like a typical comedy documentary

235
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 1: that we've been seeing, which is like, let's pat ourselves

236
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: on the back. Yeah, we're just being you know, comedians

237
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: from the nineties being like, oh I started out the

238
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: comedy seller, and you know, it's like people being like

239
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 1: I was a duck did and I said, uh, you know,

240
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: I said to the the dude who is going to

241
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 1: torture me? I was like, please, please, anything, but you know,

242
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: bottles up my ass. And then I guess the torture

243
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 1: started laughing, right, and he's like bringing the bottles better,

244
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, thank god, it's plastic or whatever,

245
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: a glass bottle, and then the guy would laugh again

246
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 1: and like so it's it's really it's like people who, um,

247
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: you know, kind of found comedy as like a survival Yeah, yeah, sure, yeah,

248
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna check that out. It's really cool.

249
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: And as a comedian who you know you have family

250
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: from another country, do you feel like you view like

251
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: the relationship of comedy to the culture you're in, like

252
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: more objectively than other people? Maybe, like possibly maybe I

253
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 1: definitely see like, um, the beauty of like taking something

254
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: traumatic and finding the levity of it. Yeah, but I

255
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,319
Speaker 1: think I'm still trying to figure out what the question was.

256
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: Do I look at comedy more objectively right, or like

257
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: from a like did you relate to it in any

258
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,959
Speaker 1: way that was like specific to somebody from you know,

259
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: a Japanese background, like having like have you looked at

260
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: comedy in Japan and like what what things are like,

261
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: found what people find funny there as opposed to in

262
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: the United States. Yeah. Yeah, I think I'm still trying

263
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: to figure that out. I grew up watching a lot

264
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: of slapsticky stuff. I feel like that feels universal even

265
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: in these states. Well, Japanese humor a lot of it's

266
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: based in status, you know, like a lot of the

267
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: humors derived from like a SEMPI co Hi kind of

268
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 1: relationship where one like a lesser person is being admonished

269
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: or like, there's a lot of the humor comes out

270
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: of that sort of status. And I think a lot

271
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: of the humor that's super funny here or in Japan

272
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: and would be hard to do in the US because

273
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: of people's egos sometimes, like the Super Fucking wild Ship

274
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: that's like, you know, people are like these Japanese games shows.

275
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 1: These people are humiliating themselves, is what it looks like

276
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: to American people, because I would never make myself look

277
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: like that. But in Japan people are just like, oh,

278
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: that's just funny, it's just dumb. It's not like, oh,

279
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: this guy's humiliating himself, where I think, I think that

280
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: relationship would be a little bit different. But yeah, there's

281
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: a show that I wish they made in the US.

282
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: Uh that is like, don't anyway, I don't want to

283
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 1: talk about that. It's a good idea that someone else.

284
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: Like when you were like early last year, you were like, uh,

285
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: there's a show in Korea called The Mass Singer that

286
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: somebody should bring over here. And then yeah, and then

287
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: then these mothers and then they got a Korean American

288
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: to judge that right ended up being t paying well.

289
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: Speaking of the we're old of behind the scenes of

290
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: social media and you know the problems that Donald Trump Jr.

291
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: Is having getting his message out there on we wanted

292
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: to take a look at what the process for moderating

293
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: Facebook looks like because so this is something I always

294
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 1: knew must exist, Jamie, You've come into contact with some

295
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: of the this is an area of my expertise, some

296
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 1: of the social media moderation forces on Twitter. Um, so

297
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: apparently it is a nightmare on the level of like

298
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: giving people PTSD who like quite literally, like literally a

299
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: former moderator is suing Facebook for giving her PTSD. Oh

300
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: my god, just from the content she was having to

301
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: look at, like as being a moderator. So they described

302
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: somebody went inside one of these. Now they contract the

303
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: workout because you know, the average employee at Facebook, like

304
00:16:55,840 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: literally the media and employee at Facebook is paid five

305
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year, and so they can't have their

306
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 1: full time employees, you know, doing this sort of ship work.

307
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: So they contracted out to uh it used to be

308
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 1: just countries where they could pay people, you know, even

309
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 1: less than they can pay them in America. But now

310
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: they've started doing it to Americans, and some journalistic outlets

311
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: were able to get some people inside, like what one

312
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 1: of these like moderation forms. They got the information by

313
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: infiltrating the by interviewing people who had signed n d

314
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 1: a s, and they got just it's crazy, like one

315
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: of the videos depicted like during training, they had a

316
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: woman come up in front of the group and watch

317
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 1: a video of a person being murdered, like someone stabbing

318
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: him dozens of times, like an actual murder, and he

319
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,159
Speaker 1: screams and begs for his life, and then they're like, Okay,

320
00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 1: now tell the room. Is that post appropriate for Facebook

321
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: or not? And apparently that is the sort of ship

322
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: like they are just seeing horrible, horrible just the dregs

323
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: of any media that exists, is like stuff that they're

324
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 1: having to say no to, which it seems like that

325
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: would be easy enough to like automatically just be like okay,

326
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: I've seen enough, Like there I mean. And Facebook is

327
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 1: so disingenuous about what they're willing to moderate and what

328
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: they're not anyways, where like there's certain stuff where they're like, well,

329
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: if we have a vested financial interest in leaving this

330
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: funked up thing are Usually they'll just leave it, and

331
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 1: that's why there's wars going on. They're paying these people

332
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: four dollars more than minimum wage and to have just

333
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: to look at the most awful ship and misinformation on

334
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: the internet. Basically. Yeah. The idea though in this article, uh,

335
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 1: that there were people who were getting so exposed to

336
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 1: conspiracy theories that they began themselves to believe them is

337
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: really it is fucking terrifying. Yes, that there are people

338
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: who are like you're you're looking at it like flat

339
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: eartheruism nine eleven truth trutherism, and then they're saying that,

340
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: like one auditor walks the floor promoting the idea that

341
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 1: the earth is flat. A former employee told me that

342
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: he has begun to question certain aspects of the Holocaust. Yes,

343
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:23,880
Speaker 1: certain aspects right there. It's I mean, that's like red

344
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: pilling one on one though, right like if just if

345
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: you expose yourself to enough bullshit, even if you know

346
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: it's bullshit, if it's like you slowly that happ wears

347
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: you down, It wears you down, and then you just

348
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: start to question reality. And these poor people, Yeah, I

349
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: mean it's yeah, if you've ever worked for a technology

350
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 1: company or something, You've probably had that thought of, like,

351
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 1: eventually somebody has to be moderating this stuff for it

352
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: to be like legally or just like morally okay or

353
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 1: otherwise there's just going to be people with horrible ends

354
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: finding ways to just cram horrible things down our throat.

355
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 1: And because you're trying to like make a living wage

356
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 1: and the only way it's possible is to watch the

357
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: most horrifying ship like that is that is dystopian as hell? Yeah,

358
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,959
Speaker 1: And so I mean there are companies like Reddit has

359
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: a policy where they you know, train people ahead of

360
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: their moderation work to you know, prepare them and like

361
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: be kind of disconnect themselves from the content that they're watching.

362
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 1: But Facebook treats these people like shit, unable to leave

363
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: the property during breaks, being banned from freely using their

364
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 1: phones even in emergencies, and restrictions being placed on when

365
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: they can take quote wellness breaks, in addition to being

366
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: unable to speak to family members about their work. Excuse you,

367
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: is the exact like that causes PTSD. That's one of

368
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: the worst exacerbators of PTSD is when you can't speak

369
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 1: to anybody about it. It just gets worse and worse

370
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 1: inside your own or even get a breather for a second. Yeah,

371
00:20:58,280 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: what are you trying to do? You're trying to fucking

372
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 1: decompress stept. You saw that animal abuse montage, right, they

373
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: should have like a puppy room there where these people

374
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: doing the most the worst job on the internet, right,

375
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: can just like get Yeah, so there's there is Uh

376
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 1: I guess what you could call a puppy room. Uh, yeah,

377
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:24,680
Speaker 1: so there's no. They apparently they found also when they

378
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: kind of looked at this office that the employees were

379
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 1: coping with like rampant drug use on the job and

380
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: also like having sex with each other in the bathrooms

381
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: and in the breastfeeding room, like just it was complete

382
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: mess of it. Like you know, it's like Vietnam. Basically,

383
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 1: it's just horrible behavior because people are under the most

384
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: horrifying circumstances fucking in the bathroom, the stairwells. The idea

385
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: that in this thing, they say they had to remove

386
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: the locks from the breastfeeding room from mothers because it

387
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 1: was just turn into a funk room, right, I mean,

388
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,679
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.

389
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 1: I'm stressed out just hearing I know. It's it's just like, oh,

390
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: of course Facebook is like a black mirror episode, and

391
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 1: as always, the solution to this is just treat your

392
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: fucking employees like human beings, like this is a shitty

393
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: job and it does. I I sort of feel like

394
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,719
Speaker 1: it does need to be done by people and not algorithms,

395
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,959
Speaker 1: because Facebook will always funk that up. But it's like,

396
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: if they're doing that, just they just treat them like

397
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 1: sucking people and compensate them, like they're having to look

398
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: at very intense ship that could really footing up because

399
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: you have to be a particular kind of person to

400
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: have to be able to handle that. And it's like,

401
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,679
Speaker 1: if you can't talk to your family about it, provide

402
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,919
Speaker 1: them with people to talk to about it that aren't

403
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: just each other, that are just like, yeah, that was

404
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 1: fucked up. Like give them some tools. Yeah, they're paying

405
00:22:55,920 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 1: them in sufficiently and not providing the therapy the people

406
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 1: need because you know, so that a small because in

407
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 1: Silicon Valley can become insanely rich, that's essentially how it works.

408
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 1: Makes me fucking sick. It makes me so angry. Yeah,

409
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: it's like it really like if you're on Facebook, still

410
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: just know that you just by you being on their right,

411
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,959
Speaker 1: that you're creating the world in which people like this

412
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:22,919
Speaker 1: have to be in moderating not that you're you know,

413
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: complicit or whatever, but like, my God, to think that

414
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: it's tough, I mean it's I'm I'm still regretfully on

415
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 1: Facebook because for a lot, I mean, it's like a

416
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: it's a family thing. Yeah, it's also the I mean,

417
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: it is interesting to observe how fucked up things get,

418
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,400
Speaker 1: like an unmoderated groups and ship like that. It's just insane.

419
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: Um Yeah, what a what a hilacious website. But it's

420
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 1: all a part of the common theme is let's pay

421
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 1: people what they're worth and take care of them. These

422
00:23:55,240 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: people should be treated like fucking God's like you have

423
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: to watch ship like that. You should be treated like

424
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 1: princes and princesses. Yeah, there are cultures that have sin

425
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 1: eaters that are like the people who absorbed the horrible

426
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: ship that we do or don't have to put up with.

427
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:20,239
Speaker 1: That's so that is that is so depressing. All right,

428
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.

429
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 1: And we're back. What is a myth what's something people

430
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: think it is true you know to be false? Oh um,

431
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 1: that you need sleep? Yeah. The myth yea that they're

432
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 1: trying to win the drug war. I think that's a myth.

433
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,439
Speaker 1: I think I'm going I think it's a business at

434
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: this point, and it funds a lot of black ops

435
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 1: and all that other stuff. So it's like a more

436
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 1: defense spending kind of ship all that stuff that economies

437
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: we're not even aware of, right, yeah, yeah, I think

438
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: that that's Yeah, it's a huge new not new, but

439
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 1: at the time that it got started, it was a

440
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: new sort of dimension of the military industrial complex. It's like, yeah,

441
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,679
Speaker 1: now we get to build tanks for Oklahoma. Yeah you

442
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: like Compton, right, yeah, yeah, because someone might have drugs

443
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: in there. Yeah yeah, and now we have now we

444
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: have more property y. That was huge though, that the

445
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 1: Supreme Court came out and said that they can't just

446
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 1: seize ship and yeah, yeah, State of Tennessee was doing that.

447
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: They have like or they have like a couple of

448
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 1: semis the state patrolled night. Wasn't there like an interview

449
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: with the guy where they're like, y'all have a really

450
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: nice fleet of cars. It is It is insane it

451
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,399
Speaker 1: is like it was like, you don't carry drugs in

452
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: your car, and Tennessee, it was always a thing because

453
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,919
Speaker 1: that will be their car. Now it was yeah, if

454
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,120
Speaker 1: you have anything, right, they're pulling up with nicer ship

455
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 1: than like the Dubai police. Yeah exactly. You see are

Speaker 1: actually spicy pepper on it, right, because they know it

494
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,200

00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 1: out three fucking three hot chicken sandwiches with varying levels

503
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:46,640

508
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: Mike chicken with a creamy habba nero sauce. And then

509
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 1: at the highest pond high is the what they call

510
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: spiciest ghost pepper make chicken so they are using like

511
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,560

512
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: you that burn? Is it on the is it just

513

520
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,680

00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: they pivoted away because they have to manufacture. I don't look,

522

580
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: beer is becoming less popular now that kids have you know,

581
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 1: these e cigarettes and there their ecstasy, right, that's what

582
00:32:55,880 --> 00:33:00,960
Speaker 1: the kids are into, right, come back? Uh so yeah,

583
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: they're they're there's just it's on the it's on the slide.

584
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 1: There are more effective ways of getting sucked up. Yeah. That,

585
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 1: And I think they're also trying to overcome the perception

586
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 1: because of people. You know, people love their fucking rose.

587
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 1: Now is wine time now all the time. People love

588
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: fucking cocktails. They're like Japanese whiskey and ship like that.

589
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: It's making beer just sort of like they're having a

590
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: sophistication perception issue and it's like fighting against Yeah, there's

591
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: the micro brewery thing that kind of tried to take

592
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: it in a hipster direction that also became kind of lame.

593
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 1: And beer is generally like mass market is associated with

594
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: just like dumb commercials for like sports bros and ship

595
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: like that. Like that's not a fashionable thing to be anymore. Yeah,

596
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 1: because I think also, you know, it's just sort of

597
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: we used to live in a world where it was

598
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: the two options were like you want to do shots

599
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: or you want beer, and now we're like, what's a

600
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 1: Manhattan right like and ship like that. So anyway, because

601
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: of this, there was like a fucking emergency like roundtable

602
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: summit like last year where the fucking top brewers we're

603
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: talking like Heineken, Anheuser Busch, InBev, Constellation, Molson Coors got

604
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 1: the funk together and they're like, how the funk do

605
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: we get people to drink beer? Like something like b

606
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 1: level cartel meeting with Exact for belly losers. They and

607
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: so this is a quote, this is what they were thinking.

608
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 1: It says executives from the four companies met early last

609
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: year to discuss what the Wall Street Journal describes as

610
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: a Got Milk style, brand neutral ad campaign to convince

611
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 1: Americans to buy beer. The hours long meeting at a

612
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 1: hotel in Virginia focused on how beer can regain its

613
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 1: market share when spirits, wine, and cocktails are perceived as

614
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,839
Speaker 1: more sophisticated. Right. I would have in the past maybe

615
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 1: thought of that as like, that's weird because milk is

616
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 1: so wholesome. But man, that dairy cartel the most, dude,

617
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: I'm dead serious, they are. They're bad. They've been killing

618
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,919
Speaker 1: us since we've known that dairy kills people since World

619
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,919
Speaker 1: War Two when we had dairy rations and we kept

620
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 1: it going because what do you mean those people like

621
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: the when they had dairy rations, the heart disease like

622
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 1: went down for the first time and only time ever. Oh,

623
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 1: because we're like, hey, we got a cool on milk. Yeah,

624
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 1: they just like didn't have enough milk to drink for

625
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 1: everybody to get fat off of or get heart disease

626
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:18,439
Speaker 1: off of. And then the dairy farmers just were like, yeah,

627
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 1: we're going to cover that up and just like make

628
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:24,319
Speaker 1: sure that people keep consuming what's your favorite milk to drink?

629
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,879
Speaker 1: Mis half and half delicious. I do love whole milk

630
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 1: all my cereal. I gotta have home you got if

631
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 1: you ever put a little half it happened some like

632
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,839
Speaker 1: frosted flakes or fruity pepple. Yeah, it's like you might

633
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 1: as well have ice cream. Oh yeah, yeah, Well anyway,

634
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 1: this this whole got beer thing. Also, can we talk

635
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: about what the funk? Would that campaign even have a look?

636
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,879
Speaker 1: Like that wasn't going to be ridiculous, Just like it's

637
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: like a guy at a bar on a date and

638
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 1: like the dude next time the hips was like, oh,

639
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: have a mohito, and this guy's like and he's probably

640
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 1: have a beer, and then a woman's like I want

641
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 1: to fuck yeah, And it's like I think that's every

642
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,799
Speaker 1: beer ad for the past thirty years. It is. Yeah,

643
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: it's like making fun of hipsters, beers tighter, more masculine.

644
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 1: I think that's the problem is you're attaching this like

645
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: hyper masculinity to beer. Yeah. I don't think this is

646
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: going to solve any of their problems since the only

647
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 1: ad that tried to make beer sophistic Kid was the

648
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,439
Speaker 1: most interesting man in the world, being like I don't

649
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: usually like beer. Beers kind of shitty, but when I

650
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 1: drink it, I'll drink this one so I don't wear condoms.

651
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 1: Take that guy has never once wren That guy. I've

652
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: seen him in real life at a barbecue restaurant in

653
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 1: Santa Monica. He's so pale in real life I felt

654
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: fucking betrayed. Yeah, he's a very fair skinned man, so

655
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 1: that you know the I guess you need that sort

656
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: of like passed out in the desert kind of you. Yeah.

657
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: But anyway, this got beer thing was going to happen

658
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 1: up until bud Light did that fucking shade campaign during

659
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl where they're like, oh, there's corn syrup

660
00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 1: in the beer. Bro, that's why we're no corn, so

661
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,320
Speaker 1: we use rice syrup. A lot of brewers have been like,

662
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 1: it doesn't it's a pretty industry wide thing that's going on.

663
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: Doesn't make that much of a difference, but whatever. But

664
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:12,280
Speaker 1: all the other brewers like, Bro, you just kicked everybody

665
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 1: else in the dick for your own benefit. And they're like,

666
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 1: fun that, we're not doing the got beer thing anymore. Right,

667
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 1: They had like an agreement of the five families like

668
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,839
Speaker 1: the Godfather, and then they started the war. Then yeah,

669
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: then they moved on the Colombians and then boom, now

670
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:29,839
Speaker 1: we're here and now we have no got beer ad shit, man,

671
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 1: it's really worried about the beer industry. Uh, those guys

672
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: deserve better for all the water they're sucking out of

673
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 1: the earth, especially in Mexican for like to kill people

674
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 1: like Ustraia and like Corona. Then beers. Man, you want

675
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,320
Speaker 1: to talk about the damage that's being done to that

676
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 1: water table for local people who are like, we have

677
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 1: no fucking water, and they're like no, no, no, no,

678
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 1: people need their beer. Yeah, So I mean there's gotta

679
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: be a way to make everybody happy. Keg stance back

680
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:02,319
Speaker 1: to keg stance. Yeah, that was the time we did one.

681
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: Last time. I did a kegstand last night, right before bed.

682
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:10,320
Speaker 1: That's just how Miles drinks. What I do is I

683
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 1: break into a bev Mo around three am and I

684
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 1: just bust the kegs. Oupen do my own kekestands against

685
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 1: the wall. But no, I honestly it kegs. I think

686
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 1: I did it once because drinking upside and ship just

687
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 1: came out my nose. I was not good at drinking.

688
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:28,360
Speaker 1: I don't because can anyone drink inverted like healthily, not healthily,

689
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 1: I don't think. I think that contradiction in terms, Yeah,

690
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 1: but right, I think honestly, the first I nearly drowned

691
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: myself with the goddamn fucking keg tap in my mouth

692
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 1: being held upside down. I was too good at drinking,

693
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 1: which is why I don't drink anymore. So I I could.

694
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 1: I could get the keg stand down pretty pretty well.

695
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: Maybe let's let's do something. We'll get a water jug. Now.

696
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 1: I can drink anything pretty quickly, especially really, man, get

697
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 1: me a mountain dew me glass of half and half. Yeah,

698
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 1: I can go down easy. Baja blast boys over here,

699
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:05,919
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Taco bell man, I do good. I spent

700
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 1: a lot of time in high school in parking lots

701
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,359
Speaker 1: of taco bells. Wow, just like the scene. I'm glad

702
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: that's about in Connecticut the taco bell scene was lit. Yeah,

703
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 1: it was woods or Taco bell rights drinking right? Why

704
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 1: did the time? Why was your taco bell parking lot

705
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:22,840
Speaker 1: like this den of iniquity? Then? I don't know. I

706
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: think it might have been the one opened the latest

707
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 1: and there were a lot of easy routes to run

708
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: away when the cops came. It wasn't just one exit,

709
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,799
Speaker 1: like you could just get out of there like two

710
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 1: or three different until I got a car right right, right,

711
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,959
Speaker 1: But it did make most sense to be on foot

712
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 1: at Taco Bell just because it's easier. Yeah, yeah, I

713
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: was gonna guess roller skates. We didn't have woods man

714
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: growing up here. We got our dirt like on freeway underpasses. Yeah.

715
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 1: The best is in the South when like people live

716
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: on farms just out there and drinking, like the horse pastures.

717
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 1: Oh wow, yeah, but you're what you're trespassing when you

718
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 1: do it, or someone f Well, my I had a

719
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: friend who had a horse farm. Look at you start

00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: saw was called horse gig gag. Now that makes more

722
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 1: sounse early Internet. A comedian horse horse slits on. I

723
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,239
Speaker 1: don't think you know what a porno is. This horse

724
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: is great. All right, We're gonna take a quick break.

725
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back. Vulture put out

726
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: a list ranking the best picture winners, and it has

727
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: been helping me mourn the win of Green Book because

728
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:55,240
Speaker 1: it it really puts into perspective how many great movies

729
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 1: are missing from the list. Of Best Picture winners. The

730
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 1: first what's on there? Well, so what's not on there?

731
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,920
Speaker 1: Like Forrest Gump is on there because it beat Shawshank,

732
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:09,000
Speaker 1: Redemption and pulp fiction Oliver beat two thousand and one

733
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,959
Speaker 1: of Space Odyssey, How Green Was My Valley beat Citizen Kane.

734
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 1: So like that, some of the best movies ever are

735
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 1: not on their um, you know, they get some things right,

736
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:25,279
Speaker 1: but it's really people love Redemption so much because it's

737
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:29,320
Speaker 1: really watchable movie, I guess, and insanely I don't know.

738
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,120
Speaker 1: I saw it like twice and then I always watch

739
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 1: it like hungover because the TNT like fucking twenty three

740
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: hours a day. But maybe I've been over shaw Shan. Yes,

741
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 1: but the first half of the list is just mostly

742
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:46,919
Speaker 1: pretty forgettable garbage. Um really yeah, Okay, let's go through.

743
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,839
Speaker 1: Tell me because when I tried to click on the link,

744
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: vultures like, oh, you've seen all your free articles? Yea, oh,

745
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:59,719

Speaker 1: beautiful mind, Okay, which I I totally agree with all this,

751
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 1: and it's just good to have it put into perspective that, Yeah,

752
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 1: these were all terrible decisions. Eighty one Dances with Wolves,

753
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 1: h eighty Green Book. So these are all we keep

754

757
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,800
Speaker 1: Like what the why did slim Dog Millionaire when? Because

758
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 1: it was broad and easy to digest. At seventy six,

759
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 1: we have still overrated pedophile heroes, Tale American Beauty. Uh yeah,

760
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 1: Academy is dead. I mean they're making a museum. That

761
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 1: means like when you a retrospective or a museum, it

762
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 1: means like an entity has died and you can see

763
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 1: it in the halls, right, you know, I mean there

764
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 1: was no host. Yeah, and then yeah, I don't know.

765
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 1: I thought it was fine with it. I thought it

766
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 1: was I thought it was fine and watchable, but it

767
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:19,759
Speaker 1: was one of those things where yeah, you don't, I

768
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't I just every year. It's like

769
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:23,799
Speaker 1: it's like the v M A s man. I used

770
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: to care, Yeah, you just care about the MTV video music.

771
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 1: I used to care about a moon man. I remember

772
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 1: there was such a stark drop off in my giving

773
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 1: a ship about that, Like it was the summer before college.

774
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 1: Chris Rock was hosting that year. I was excited. I

775
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 1: was like, fucking Chris, like that'll be the best. And

776
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 1: then college started and I remember, like it was on

777
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 1: TV as I was walking by, someone's doing around and

778
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:48,680
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I don't care about that at all.

779
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: In college, dude, you're gonna balance my checkbook exactly. I

780
00:43:54,800 --> 00:44:00,120
Speaker 1: was busy balancing on sixty four is Gump, which every

781
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 1: time I think about that movie it gets like more

782
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:09,359
Speaker 1: absurd and racist, and oh man for His Gump is Hey, look,

783
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,920
Speaker 1: you could say that I'm never gonna stop eating at

784
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 1: Bubba Gump shrimp. You can keep eating a Bubba Gump shrimp.

785
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 1: I eat there, I think three times a month. The

786
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 1: depiction of the Black Panthers and for His Gump is incredible,

787
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 1: because that's right. The Black Panthers are first of all,

788
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 1: just like so angry all the time, and then at

789
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,279
Speaker 1: one point for his Gump like runs away from one

790
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,360
Speaker 1: of the Black Panthers because he's going to punch somebody

791
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 1: who just hit his who hit Jenny, which the Black

792
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,360
Speaker 1: Panthers don't give a shit about. They're They're just like,

793
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: oh yeah, whatever, people can hit women, that's no big deal.

794
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 1: And after Forrest Gump runs away, the guys still just

795
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,920
Speaker 1: yelling at the empty space where Forrest Gump had been before,

796
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 1: which suggests that the Black Panthers were just like these

797
00:44:55,440 --> 00:45:00,479
Speaker 1: automaton anger robots who like didn't even like it's chose

798
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 1: such a lack of perspective or empathy for anyone who

799
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 1: isn't white, and it like rewrites history. So Forrest Gump

800
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 1: is Wesley Morris from New York Times was talking about

801
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 1: this this week on his podcast. But it rewrites history

802
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 1: so like Forest, so a white male helps the young

803
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,960
Speaker 1: black woman who like is breaking through the breaking the

804
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 1: color barrier and Alabama. That's right, He's like helps her, Yeah,

805
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 1: he helps him pick up his book. It's just so

806
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 1: weird because Robert Zemeckis is the same dude who rewrote

807
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:38,359
Speaker 1: history so that Marty McFly invented rock music instead of checks.

808
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:44,440
Speaker 1: He like his whole soul is giving white men credit

809
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:48,879
Speaker 1: for things that they didn't take credit for already. There's

810
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 1: a little bit of a difference. Don't touch the Bubba,

811
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 1: you know, we know that Bubba Tramp is a little

812
00:45:54,680 --> 00:46:00,200
Speaker 1: different Bubba and bub Yeah. This person put shakes Bear

813
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 1: in love it fifty five, which seems way too should

00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: have been saying Brev Ryan Um. The I guess what

00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,479
