So we'll see how it goes. Okay, 76 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: Koreatown has a bunch of like tented outdoor restaurant things 77 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: going on in restaurant fronts by my house, and it's 78 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: apparently like inspired by soul. It's something that happens in soul. 79 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: So uh, that's an ideas from how they were responding 80 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: to the pandemic. I think just generally outside eating. Yeah, 81 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: just generally outside eating. Okay, Yeah, it's supposed to be 82 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: this past the next few days are supposed to be 83 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: incredibly hot, as we're recording this in in the Southwest 84 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 1: where we live. Yeah. Well, I was going to ask, 85 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 1: how is how is it been having the transition to 86 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: more outdoor dining and you know, outdoor bar options when 87 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: it's so hot. I don't know. I don't go out 88 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: feel bad. I don't I feel bad. It looks uncomfortable. 89 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: I don't also want to be the kind of consumer 90 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: that it's like such a weird double edged sword, because 91 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: I understand the need for people to work, as our 92 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: government is not just saying here, we're going to give 93 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: you money to stay safe, so we can just end 94 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: this pandemic like other countries have done, or you know, 95 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: at least limit the financial impact of just staying safe. Here, 96 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: it's like, well, if you can't stay safe and you're 97 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: gonna have to put yourself at risk, And part of 98 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: me feels bad of like even being a consumer who 99 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: would help a business rationalize that they need to put 100 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: their own employees at risk, but then it's like, but 101 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: they need money, so I'll just take out, thank you 102 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: so much. I will leave a tip, but I will 103 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 1: not stay here. I don't even if it's outside and 104 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: it's safe for everybody. And I don't need to be 105 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: doing all that because I can, you know, I feel 106 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: the same way. It's such a weird dilemma of so 107 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: so far. I mean, I've done take out, but I 108 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: have not really gone to any restaurants or bars, and yeah, 109 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: it is. It's I want to be a good consumer. 110 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: I understand that people who work in the service in 111 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: this we need to make a living, but I don't 112 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: want to perpetuate this idea that's like you need to 113 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: die serving me, right, And I don't want to perpetuate that. 114 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: So I don't. I don't really know what to do, 115 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: but I don't have an answer. That's why it's like, 116 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: I'll just you know, just leave tips and at least 117 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: I can say like I've contributed to the financial well 118 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: being of the business. Hopefully they're doing right by their employees. 119 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: But I'm not at least presenting the physical you know, 120 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: threat or risk you know, because of just you know, 121 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: the nature of transmission and things like that. Not that 122 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: I'm you know, been around that many people. But that's 123 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: just things I want to think about.

But as you know 255 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: on the on the adult show, he's his whole thing 256 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: is like being kind of mean. Is it an act 257 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: or is he actually kind of a gruff person? He's well, okay, 258 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: so I didn't work on Master Chef Kids.

What's something people think is true 388 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: you know to be false? Okay, so this again is 389 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: a little bit personal. But when Biden picked Kamala Harris 390 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: as his running mate, I got a flitterry of text 391 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,239 Speaker 1: messages being like, oh, aren't she related to her? And 392 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: your first your first thought might be racism, but not true. 393 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 1: My mom is an a k A. She she went 394 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: to that she's a member of the same sorority as Harris, 395 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 1: and anybody who is also a k A. People like 396 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: Gladys Night, people like um, I think um, Tony Braxton, 397 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: my mom.

But she doesn't, 399 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: she doesn't correct them. So there has been a little 400 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: bit of a Todd family lore that a whole host 401 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: of black women that we've never met our my mom's 402 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: sister and my aunt, because my mom has been feeding 403 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 1: into this myth that she is related Kamala Harris.

That's 417 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: like someone at a marketing companies like, how do we 418 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: get that kind of energy on this new camp pain 419 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: for Sparks energy liquor. I want to see numbers. I 420 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: want to see HBCU Twitter intersect with a K A 421 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: Twitter and liberal politics Twitter. That's what I'm talking about. 422 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,479 Speaker 1: Hey man, all right, let's take a quick break and 423 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: we'll be right back. And we're back, uh and really quickly, 424 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: we want to check in with the state of the 425 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: United States Postal Service. How we do it? Miles um. 426 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: So there were like images going around where there were 427 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: Postal Service trucks like loading up those iconic blue mail 428 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: drop boxes like off the streets and taking them away. Uh. 429 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: And there's a few images of that in New York City. Eugene, Oregon. 430 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: John Tester, the Senator Montana, he sent a letter to 431 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 1: the postmatch or uh Louis DeJoy basically saying like, what 432 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: is going on is like apparently over a dozen post 433 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: office drop boxes were removed across the state. And this 434 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: is with the backdrop of the president is trying to 435 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 1: fuck mail in voting so he can do everything he 436 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 1: can to try and hold onto power. And this is like, 437 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 1: it's just so cynical to be like, Okay, well it 438 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: wasn't just enough that they were fucking with sorting machines, 439 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: and sorting machines are being removed, which a lot of 440 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: people like this has to be felonious. Now at this point, 441 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: this is this is like in every imaginable way just 442 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,199 Speaker 1: tampering with the mail.

Um. But then there are 446 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 1: other spokespeople from the postal service saying like, well, you know, 447 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 1: like we're just trying to be efficient and like when 448 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: there aren't that many drops at that location, then like 449 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: we just realized that it's easier to do that, so 450 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: then the routes are shorter and that that that that that. 451 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:00,040 Speaker 1: But what it looks like and what it is is 452 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: you're just being like we're gonna limit even the places 453 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: you can even leave your mail in ballot, right, yeah 454 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 1: we did.

Well, the natural extension is right, 553 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: like for so long the people of good faith and 554 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: morals will rely on that to say no, if we 555 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: just stick by our guns, that's that's how we win. 556 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: But when you are dealing with people who constantly are 557 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,479 Speaker 1: not playing by the same rule book, eventually that's going 558 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: to drag the other side into the same Like you're like, okay, 559 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 1: fuck it.

Just the the opposition party like Mitch McConnell, 576 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: if it was a Democrat would be freaking out. I 577 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: guess I just don't know how the country works. Maybe 578 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: maybe I need to do that.

You know, because the world, the world 645 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 1: is happening off that screen exactly, you know what I mean. 646 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 1: And like you're you're you're, You're not gonna people are 647 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: gonna pick you up because you had the fire clap 648 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 1: back tweet.

So even if you have to, you're 651 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: like saying, well, whatever I can't do at the federal level, 652 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: let me get in my district and see what I 653 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,439 Speaker 1: can do for the people of my district too, because 654 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: that is all that is the point. You're there to 655 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 1: represent the people of your district. Um. But I think 656 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: that's just the thing is, like we're needing to see 657 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 1: a shift in the what motivates someone to get into 658 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: politics because this all the older people that are in 659 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: there now are like have ties to business and it 660 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: makes sense for them strategically to get into politics for 661 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: like the benefit of themselves. And then you have some 662 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 1: people who truly are public servants, but we need more 663 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 1: like I'm ready to I'm ready to rock the fucking 664 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: boat over the type people and like that's what we have, 665 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 1: you know. And like that's why I think that the 666 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: d n C wasn't looking favorably at people like like 667 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: the squad and things like that, because they're not here 668 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: to play nice and they're like, uh, you know, there's 669 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: like real problems, like you know what I mean, Like 670 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: poor people are going through it. I think we're gonna 671 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: see a real shift, like a real shift, and like 672 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: who becomes politicians just genera generationally, like the values because 673 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 1: this is you know, I mean anybody who's paying attention 674 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,800 Speaker 1: and is not completely just affected and completely just giving 675 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: up and is just trying to you know, make a 676 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: power of money where right now is disgusted with with 677 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 1: what they're seeing. Um, I mean you're you're pointing out 678 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: like the Chamber of Commerce ship like just how exactly 679 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 1: like so you look at it all right, you know, 680 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 1: Jody Ernst from senator from Iowa, Tom Tillis from North Carolina, 681 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: Susan Collins from Maine, Corey Gardner in Colorado, they're all uh, 682 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: the beneficiaries of massive ad spends from the Chamber of Commerce. Now, 683 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 1: the Chamber of Commerce is basically the gang that business 684 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: owners join up and they say, okay, we're the chamber, 685 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 1: bro and like look, every every city has their own 686 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 1: local chamber and that's all the business owners who are like, 687 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: you know, we're a network of business. You know, it's 688 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 1: like some very nice language, but really they're there to 689 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 1: be like, don't sunk our money up and if if 690 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 1: the politicians start doing things that sunk our money up there, 691 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna hear from the Chamber of Commerce. Um. And 692 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 1: especially with and now you look at the the senators right, 693 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: and how the Republican Party has been operating, especially through 694 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: the pandemic. They've been like raw ra like reopen everything. 695 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 1: Who gives a funk about masks, Like I think the 696 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 1: problem is we need to get back to work. That's 697 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: exactly what the Chamber of Commerce wants, Like they want 698 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: the message to be we got to reopen. Because the 699 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,240 Speaker 1: Chamber of Commerce, they represent them many of the business 700 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,360 Speaker 1: owners who are like, by any means necessary not to 701 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 1: say that there are small business owners that absolutely need 702 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 1: help and are also saying like I need to open 703 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: for the survival of my own business. But these this 704 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: is this is a very disingenuous bunch, Like they're commending 705 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: these people. So they said, for Jody Ernest when asked 706 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: about like, well what's going on with like you know, 707 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: it looks like you spent about three fifty dollars in 708 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 1: the seedar rapids in De Moines area. That's a lot, uh, 709 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: and saying the US Chamber of Commerce is supportive of 710 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 1: this common sense solution that will lower prescription drug prices 711 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: for Iowa seniors and families, particularly crucial in light of 712 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: the of the COVID nineteen. Yeah, they were the The 713 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 1: Issue Advocacy A campaign highlights the business community support for 714 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: Senator Ernst and her willingness to fight for I Owens 715 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 1: on these important issues. It's not that she was out 716 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 1: here being like, let's try and recklessly reopen things and 717 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 1: put workers at risk. They're like, because we can't picker 718 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: up on that, let's use the thing and make this 719 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: about prescription drugs, even though that's why we need her there, 720 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,800 Speaker 1: because we need somebody to kepe for, you know, the 721 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 1: business class. And again, I do want to reiterate though 722 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 1: with the reopening stuff, because I have people in my 723 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: life who are like trying to reopen their business and 724 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 1: going about it one way or the other. But the 725 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 1: pressure really needs to be on the government to support 726 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,879 Speaker 1: the businesses. And I feel bad for business owners thinking 727 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,839 Speaker 1: that they need to open and make money the way 728 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 1: they were. That's not the way. It's that's that really 729 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 1: should not be a responsibility given this pandemic. The onus 730 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 1: is on the federal government to say, do not put 731 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 1: any of our citizens at risk. We have we'll figure 732 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,919 Speaker 1: it out, don't do that. But that's I mean, that's 733 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:07,320 Speaker 1: not that's not America talking absolutely, you know. I so 734 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 1: when I know, it's very tempting when you see these 735 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 1: pictures of like young people out at bars, out of 736 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: restaurants to be like tisk tisk, you should you should 737 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 1: be at home. But the point is these places shouldn't 738 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 1: be open. Right if we lived in a if we 739 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,280 Speaker 1: lived in a country that has a strong federal government, 740 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,439 Speaker 1: we would have some sort of system worked out where 741 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 1: people it would be incentivized for people who do the safe, 742 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 1: smart thing. I feel for these business owners who don't 743 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 1: really feel like they have a lot of choices, and 744 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 1: they aren't really getting any kind of guidance from the 745 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:34,879 Speaker 1: federal government, and a lot of cases are not getting 746 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: good guidance from their state governments. Right. I absolutely feel 747 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: for them being put in this impossible and possibly complex 748 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,439 Speaker 1: situation that they did not set up themselves and having 749 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: to navigate that. That's I feel for them, but I 750 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: think we need to do It's important to keep in 751 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 1: mind that it is not the fault of the business owners, 752 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,319 Speaker 1: and it's not the fault of the people who who 753 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 1: like are like fucking I'm gonna go to the bar. 754 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,320 Speaker 1: The blame should be on the God for man and 755 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 1: their failure to be leaders in the moment when we 756 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 1: needed the most, and I think we have all these 757 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 1: little tricks and things to get us to forget that 758 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 1: and to be like, oh, well, I blame this nineteen 759 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,840 Speaker 1: year old girl who went to a bar without a 760 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: mask or what have you. It's like, no, the It's 761 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 1: very tempting, but I think we need to continue to 762 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: remember that the people who are supposed to be keeping 763 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 1: us safe in this moment have just thrown up their 764 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 1: hands and thrown us to the wolves. Yeah, it's like 765 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 1: having a babysitter who's like letting like babies play with 766 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 1: matches and they get home like what the funk happened? Like, 767 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, the baby's playing with matches. It's 768 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: she's like, you are the babysitter, sir. They're there. It's 769 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,959 Speaker 1: like you were saying earlier, Man, no one man should 770 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,800 Speaker 1: have all those peppers. Yeah, exactly, no one matched to 771 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:49,720 Speaker 1: have all those peppers. I've really twenty first centuria sheet. 772 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 1: Oh man, uh, it's it really, But I think really 773 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:59,280 Speaker 1: that for business owners too, that's a very specific mindset 774 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,360 Speaker 1: in this country, to which is very much your bootstrappy 775 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 1: entrepreneur who's like I can get it on my own. 776 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it on my own and on that. 777 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: On the other side of that, it's you're less likely 778 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 1: to actually go like, hold on a second, it's not 779 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: this in this moment, it's not actually on me to 780 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 1: make sure my business is surviving. But that is a 781 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,319 Speaker 1: very like culturally in built way of thinking of like, well, 782 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 1: I gotta get Mike, I gotta make sure my business going. 783 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 1: Like you have to consider this piece that the federal 784 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: government is being so negligent, and I think the actions 785 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 1: that you take is to organize your community to like 786 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 1: really demand a response from your local leaders or whatever 787 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 1: and go up there, because that's I I know, no 788 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 1: other way. Like, if anything, you'd hope that this radicalizes 789 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 1: the small business owner owning class to realize, like, oh 790 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 1: my god, this is such a fucked up way of 791 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,880 Speaker 1: doing business like in this country, especially without the federal 792 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 1: government offering any kind of support to us as business owners. 793 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 1: The p PP loans fucking vaporized and so many of 794 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 1: the people who needed them didn't get them. So yeah, 795 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: it's it's it's hard, and it's just it's just really 796 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 1: disheartening to see the lack of care from the government 797 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 1: and it's also because the kinds of people running this 798 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: country don't live in the same earth we do. Right, 799 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 1: all right, let's take a quick break and we'll come 800 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:28,919 Speaker 1: back and talk about some some bullshit, and we're back 801 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 1: and uh, some miles.

And really the opening 933 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:25,400 Speaker 1: scene is like you realize she's like the a V 934 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 1: person for the dance team, and like she fux up 935 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:32,319 Speaker 1: majorly in a performance and spills coffee on the light 936 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:34,759 Speaker 1: like the board to do all the lights levels and 937 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 1: things that starts sparking, but the logic continues where the 938 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 1: stage starts sparking as well, and there's like that's my 939 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 1: favorite thing. Like look, if you get we all know this. 940 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,320 Speaker 1: You put anything liquid on electricity's sparks shooting out the 941 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:50,280 Speaker 1: smart immediately and if it's connected to that even fifty 942 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,719 Speaker 1: ft away, sparks get ready because it's sparks. Baby, if 943 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 1: a car is anywhere nearby, it's gonna explode, oh every time, 944 00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:01,600 Speaker 1: every time. So, you know, as she does. And then 945 00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,400 Speaker 1: so there's the dance, people like, okay, you're off, like 946 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,239 Speaker 1: you can no longer you know, work with us as 947 00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:07,920 Speaker 1: the a V person. So she shattered. And then in 948 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:11,400 Speaker 1: her interview as she sort of like sort of roundabout 949 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:14,120 Speaker 1: Lee implies that she's on it, they're like, oh, well 950 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 1: that's great. So if you know, if if if that's 951 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:18,239 Speaker 1: really your thing, then I might I think this really 952 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:20,040 Speaker 1: improves your chances at Duke. Like you know, I just 953 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: want to you know, like can't wait to see that happen. 954 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:25,759 Speaker 1: And like so like every formulaic film, there's a big 955 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:29,279 Speaker 1: obviously competition that she's going to have to be in 956 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:34,719 Speaker 1: to get into Duke. Um. But then to orphanage. This 957 00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 1: is so a girl can get into Duke. Yeah, And 958 00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:38,799 Speaker 1: this is where it gets kind of weird because she's 959 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,680 Speaker 1: like relying on her friend who's a woman of color, 960 00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:43,160 Speaker 1: to be like, Okay, look, I need you to teach 961 00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,520 Speaker 1: me how to dance so I can get into it. 962 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 1: So I can get into duke even though I lied, 963 00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:50,879 Speaker 1: But is now your responsibility, woman of color, to give 964 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:52,680 Speaker 1: me that rhythm so I can get on that dance 965 00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:57,320 Speaker 1: before I'm like okay, uh. It's following in the footsteps 966 00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 1: of Save the Last Dance. Yeah, exactly, it's And it's 967 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:03,000 Speaker 1: very much like every dance movie. It's the you know, 968 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:06,839 Speaker 1: out of place, uptight like bookworm or like not hip 969 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:10,440 Speaker 1: hop white person who's like now with some other people. 970 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:13,040 Speaker 1: But the thing is the main dance team she wants 971 00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:15,719 Speaker 1: to get on, they don't want her anymore. So there 972 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:19,040 Speaker 1: and she auditions, it goes, it goes south, and then 973 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:21,200 Speaker 1: she realizes she has to start her own dance team 974 00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 1: with some like misfits at the school. And it's like exactly, 975 00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:27,320 Speaker 1: and it's all the things where it's like, Yo, the 976 00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:29,839 Speaker 1: pasty kid who does karate like he can he can 977 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 1: get down to like he did a backflip at a 978 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 1: pool party in eighth grade. I think all right, and 979 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 1: they're like, all right, let's get him. Then there's like 980 00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 1: a kid who's like selling cassette mixtapes, which I was like, 981 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 1: who wrote this? Because kids in high school aren't like, yo, 982 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:49,200 Speaker 1: you got that tape? Like the dude had tapes deck 983 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 1: with it, because where is there any kid gonna listen 984 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 1: to it? And I know, like more like indie artists 985 00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:58,239 Speaker 1: who are like millennials are fucking with like tape releases, 986 00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:01,280 Speaker 1: but like that's not that's not how kids are spreading 987 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:05,040 Speaker 1: their music anymore. Like we had CDs, they have Spotify 988 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 1: playlists and whatever the funk else, Like they don't know 989 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,600 Speaker 1: what he's handing out physical copies. I just want to 990 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:12,879 Speaker 1: say that there's one moment where the film fully it's 991 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,879 Speaker 1: just like it's for kids. There's like a moment where 992 00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,480 Speaker 1: for them to get into the big, the big competition 993 00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 1: where that's where she would like the you know, the 994 00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 1: real deal, the climax scene. They have to get through 995 00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 1: like the regionals and the regionals like they do okay, 996 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 1: and then the last team goes up and like they're 997 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:31,359 Speaker 1: like just smoking them, like this team is so good 998 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:34,319 Speaker 1: and then they're like, oh damn, like we're out based 999 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:35,880 Speaker 1: on the other teams, Like we thought we would get 1000 00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: in if if we were the best, but this team 1001 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 1: is better than us. And there's like a Davis x 1002 00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:42,799 Speaker 1: Maximum moment where one of the dancers on this team 1003 00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,839 Speaker 1: like rival teams that's like about to eliminate them gets 1004 00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 1: a fucking boner.

If you don't wear 1012 00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:12,920 Speaker 1: a dance belt, then you're disqualified. So we're in and 1013 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, a dance belt, Yeah, I don't know. I 1014 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:21,520 Speaker 1: guess it's like a erection reducer.

But like 1022 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,160 Speaker 1: there's a scene where she's like it's almost like what 1023 00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:43,439 Speaker 1: are you guys? Doing and they're like, oh no, it's 1024 00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:46,319 Speaker 1: like and she's like a like appears like a white woman, 1025 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:48,759 Speaker 1: older white woman, and she's like turn that ship up 1026 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 1: and she starts walking and ship and you're like whoa, 1027 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:54,719 Speaker 1: so there.

I don't know, dirty 1031 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:04,960 Speaker 1: dancing or whatever the funk it's supposed to be, but 1032 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 1: you know it's got its ups and downs. This is 1033 00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 1: very much up my alley. I was on dance team 1034 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:14,600 Speaker 1: through all of school. UM won many a trophy.

I love a cheesy, formulaic 1037 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:26,320 Speaker 1: dance movie. I love the montage of assembling the the 1038 00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 1: like motley crew of like ragtag dancers and inevitably like 1039 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:33,239 Speaker 1: the girl or like the white girl gets her rhythm scene. 1040 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:36,920 Speaker 1: Love it.

They're like, don't get 1052 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:19,720 Speaker 1: the chair on them, and it's just like the chair part, 1053 00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:23,040 Speaker 1: the chair part where she's just like just looking at 1054 00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:27,720 Speaker 1: either side, but she's and homegirl is supposed to be 1055 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:32,720 Speaker 1: auditioning or like one of the top performing art schools 1056 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:36,200 Speaker 1: in the fucking world.

I would if you want, if 1094 00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:38,840 Speaker 1: you want to kind of like easy watching, kind of 1095 00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:41,520 Speaker 1: heartwarming PG. Thirteen. Like I went into it thinking it 1096 00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:44,240 Speaker 1: was going to be raunchier than you know. I see 1097 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:45,960 Speaker 1: Seth broken and I'm like, oh, we get ready for 1098 00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 1: some pot jokes and Dick jokes. But it was more 1099 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 1: like Pickle Brian jokes. But by the end of it, 1100 00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:55,000 Speaker 1: I was into it. Um. A movie that I rewatched 1101 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:59,600 Speaker 1: recently was Demolition Man. Totally yeah. I mean, if you 1102 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,480 Speaker 1: had at the beginning of this episode, that's what this 1103 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:05,280 Speaker 1: episode would have been. So we watched Demolition Man on 1104 01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:08,680 Speaker 1: Netflix and now all of our Netflix like suggestions are 1105 01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 1: that very specific kind of nineties action movies. So we 1106 01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:15,560 Speaker 1: watched Total Recall last night, which holds up. I think, 1107 01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:17,960 Speaker 1: you know, it's a pretty good movie. Um, Demolition Man 1108 01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 1: is the one I'm gonna recommend it. Really, it really 1109 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:26,400 Speaker 1: presents this very kind of like feminized Like I guess 1110 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 1: when when I watch a lot of movies that are 1111 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:31,200 Speaker 1: episode of like about the future, it's always sort of 1112 01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 1: very grim and very dark. And what's actually kind of 1113 01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:37,040 Speaker 1: refreshing about Demolition Man is that their predictions of the future, 1114 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 1: it's like, Oh, we've reached this sort of almost utopian 1115 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:43,680 Speaker 1: like feminized society where you know, everyone is so happy 1116 01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:45,840 Speaker 1: they don't even really swear and things like that, like 1117 01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:48,200 Speaker 1: like that vision of society. I was like, oh, wow, 1118 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,160 Speaker 1: it's interesting that that's what they were. They were present, 1119 01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:53,600 Speaker 1: But it sucks because Dennis Leary can't do a stand 1120 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:59,480 Speaker 1: up routine in that world. Yes, he's been driven underground. 1121 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 1: They gotta and they gotta do like large scale heists 1122 01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:04,680 Speaker 1: of taco bell restaurants just to keep the fan fed. 1123 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:09,200 Speaker 1: What you please think of the Dennis's lyric the the 1124 01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 1: white raunchy comedians whose careers were crushed when Dr Cocteau 1125 01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:17,600 Speaker 1: took over San Angeles. You really remember that movie very well. 1126 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:20,200 Speaker 1: That movie. Oh my dad took me to the theater 1127 01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:22,440 Speaker 1: to see that ship, and I was like on a 1128 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,280 Speaker 1: school night.
