Have you guys ever heard of piss profits? 35 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: Because you don't like this? All right? So first, yes, yes, 36 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: about urine piss profit? All right? Yeah, so we did. 37 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: Our most recent episode was called Gender Revealed Parties. So 38 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: we really dove into, you know, all of these events 39 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: that are causing wildfires and deaths and explosions, and we 40 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: wanted to figure out why things had amped up to 41 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: this level. So we on American hysteria, we always try 42 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 1: to go back to some you know, very root moments 43 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: and kind of show how things have always been the 44 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: same and so right, the sonogram changed the game of 45 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: of gender for babies, right, or of course biological sex. 46 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: So before sonograms, it was pretty much all guessing, right, 47 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: or you know, in the Middle Ages, it was all 48 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,399 Speaker 1: about psychic types of folks coming and trying to determine 49 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 1: biological sex because the people were always obsessed with kind 50 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: of like the mystery of pregnancy. And that's what we 51 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: kept coming back to in the episode because we wanted 52 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: to go deeper than that. It's fucked up and gender 53 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: essentialists and all, like we know that, So we wanted 54 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: to figure out more about like what what is the 55 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: history of this? And so in the Middle Ages, piss 56 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: profits and they were called this in the Middle Ages, 57 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: which is wonderful, And so they had many different ways 58 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: of kind of examining a woman's yurine to try to 59 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: figure out if she was pregnant and then be what 60 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: the sex of the baby was. So they would do 61 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: things like they would mix it with wine to like 62 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: see how it interacted with the wine. They would smell it, 63 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: they taste it, they would One of the things they 64 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: like to do was burn a ribbon that was soaked 65 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: in urine to see if the woman gagged at the 66 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: smell of the urine. Uh. They would like read the bubbles, 67 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: which is what it sounds like. They're most successful way 68 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: of doing this is they would they would have the 69 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: pregnant woman p in um barley sprouts and a bag 70 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: of wheat or sorry, a bag of barley and a 71 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 1: bag of wheat, and whicheverone sprouted first would determine the 72 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 1: biological sex. So anyway, they were able to later kind 73 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: of replicate this experiment in the you know, second half 74 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: of the twentieth century, and it was true that in 75 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: this study women who were pregnant, it actually showed that whatever, 76 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: for whatever reason they think, maybe estrogen or something like 77 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: the up to estrogen level actually did make these things sprout. 78 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: So it is this really interesting, bizarre thing that I 79 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: went down own into of this world of how we 80 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: once you know, we've just so obsessed with the sex 81 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: of the baby, and and a lot of that we 82 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: kind of found was because if you're living in a 83 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: world where gender expression matches biological sex, like you know, 84 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: unfortunately it does in many most cases in America. Then, actually, 85 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: like divining the gender of the child is going to 86 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: kind of tell you like you can divine their future 87 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 1: a little bit, because if you know, I'm gonna have 88 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: a boy, you can sort of for the first time 89 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: imagine this baby's life. Right, So I think it's really interesting. So, yeah, 90 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: piss profits is my answer. This is the second time 91 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: in less than twenty four hours that somebody has extolled 92 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: the virtues of dark ages piss science to me. Yeah. Well, 93 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: so the podcast how Attle, so the last podcast on 94 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 1: the left. I was just listening to this today. Yeah, yeah, 95 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: such a good Yeah. So they're doing a series on 96 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 1: the plague the Black Death, and they opened the most 97 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: recent episode with just looking at like the state of 98 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: medical science at the time, and they it was interesting 99 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: because they were like, actually, like, you know, we have 100 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: this sense that they would just you know, burn a 101 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: baby bird and like based on the direction the smoke went, 102 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: like that would tell you, you know, what the treatment 103 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 1: should be. But they had like there was a famous 104 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: experiment where like the Duke of some country or another 105 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: in Europe tried to trick a piss profit by using 106 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: the urine of a pregnant woman and was like, yeah, 107 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 1: this is my urine, what do you what do you 108 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: see for me? And they were like, well, congratulations, you're 109 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: gonna give birth in a couple months. Yeah, which hopefully 110 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: it's true. I believe every thing that I hear from 111 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: the Dark Ages, Yeah, everything from up but yeah, piss 112 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: science and then you know that's really popular. Yeah, and 113 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: then astrology took over and that was it. So yeah, 114 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: astrology and piss science were the two things that they 115 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: used a lot of in the Middle Ages, and piss 116 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: has held on. We still when piss was king Wait, 117 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: and they called it pissed back then in the even 118 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: the parlance of those times, one of these old that's 119 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: like the kind of yeah storied historians. Yeah, I mean 120 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: it's yeah. Funk is a great like percussive word that 121 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: is just like powerful in your mouth, no matter and 122 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: like piss, yes, has great dound of piss. They're very 123 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: Anglo Saxon, just yeah, piss. Something I love too is 124 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: that I feel as I feel like this is true 125 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: that the piss profits were sort of like a faux 126 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: paw by the time astrology came like they were like, oh, 127 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: those are really stupid people who are superstitious, and we 128 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: are the real scientists because we're studying the planet, you know, 129 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: And it's just it's weird to think about that. My 130 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: cousin Frank, he's just into piss play. I'm sorry. Yeah, 131 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: but the thing that's blowing my mind is that they're like, 132 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: let's try the experiment now, and those scientists have been like, yeah, right, 133 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: I mean there's must be something to it. I don't 134 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: know or not. Well, you're there's people still have such like, 135 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: you know, because I remember, like in the late eighties 136 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: and stuff, people talking about drinking their piss and ship 137 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: and people still be trying to drink their pea and 138 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: for all the or whatever. I don't know. The properties 139 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: probably know what you're saying, and let me just stop 140 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: you right there. Don't try it. I used that as 141 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: a vertisement to be like, maybe I should give this 142 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: thing a shot. It's not what it's advertised as at all. 143 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: It's not as good as you. It's funny even though 144 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: you you protest now when I actually very directly, can 145 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: you get sick from drinking your own? You're like not, 146 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: you're good. You're good. You're good and trust me, you 147 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: can drink a lot. You can drill it. Actually, anyone 148 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: in your family is safe. All of what. So we 149 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: knew we wanted to have two kids, and we were, 150 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: you know, really curious what our second babies, you know, 151 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: if it was gonna be a boy or a girl. 152 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: And we got so much like pseudo science from people. 153 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: There was like the number of folds and your current 154 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: baby's thighs would tell you whether you're gonna have a 155 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: boy or girl. There's like this entire from the Middle Ages. Yeah, 156 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: there's this entire chart that they're like, no, it's actually accurate, 157 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: but it's like based on like complete nonsense, and like 158 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: I had like multiple learned people swear by it, like 159 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: you know, this looks like a chart of like anti bella, 160 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: anti bello and physiognomy, Like yeah, it's my favorite. Was 161 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: baby nurse told us that she like held a medallion 162 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: over our son and like let it spin a number 163 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: of times, and she was like, this works every time 164 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: you guys are going to have a girl. It works 165 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: every time, except sometimes it's the opposite, Like oh, well 166 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 1: that doesn't work. Wait, and if it's if we're dealing 167 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: in like brutal binaries.

Also I had that bucket, but it wasn't 345 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: It wasn't so much tutsie rolls as it was tutsie 346 00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: pops that that ended up being the leftover you like 347 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 1: dumb dumbs. I did funk with dumb dumb.

You know this 351 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: is and what you do well, come on, come on, 352 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: dumb dumb. The degree to which big banking and dentistry 353 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: like propped up the dumb dumb industry for so was 354 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: like that there's just something about the fact that you 355 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: would get that when you were a kid that like 356 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: really gave them a little What happened that I feel 357 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 1: like worth investigating, Like were they lobbying like the banking 358 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: associations to be like this is what you need to 359 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,360 Speaker 1: have in all your banks, this will be in all 360 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: of your administrative buildings. Like that's a that's a fucking contract. Yeah. 361 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: I feel like the Koch Brothers knew about like belly 362 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: and dumb dumps, you know what I mean, Like they're 363 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: there's some sinister ship happening with the dumb dumb community. 364 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 1: You exactly. We need to look into the Spangler candy company. 365 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: I'm saying to here that sounds evil. Koch Brothers had 366 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: a part of my childhood. They made Dixie cups. Koch 367 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: Brothers made Dixie cups. Oh yeah, and like brawny paper 368 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: they're and all kinds of paper goods. Surprised what how 369 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 1: much money you might be given the Coke bros. I 370 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 1: guess that makes sense. I never knew how, and one 371 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: of them is dead, so we got one more to go. 372 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: But uh, I never knew how much the Coke I 373 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 1: never knew how they got their money. But that makes sense. 374 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: They weren't just born wealthy. They probably sold some ship. 375 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 1: Oh no, they were born to Uh they're always born well, 376 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: I said, just born addition, in addition to the oil 377 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: wealth that they had from their fathers selling oil to 378 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 1: the Nazis. Oh yeah, yeah, so they're evil legacy, evil 379 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,479 Speaker 1: through and through to an almost impressive degree. It's like 380 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's always says, Nazi need need oil to Yeah 381 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: to Hans or tanks. You need gasoline too. All right, 382 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. 383 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: And we're back. And so the January six Commission, the 384 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: attempt to figure out what what all went down when 385 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: the capital was attacked, is moving forward. And the Republicans 386 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: were basically like, if anybody fucking says anything, you're fine. 387 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: The gang can't be or you can't even be friends 388 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: with us anymore. That's yeah, that's party does that's how 389 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 1: he controls the party. He uh, you know Liz Cheney, 390 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,239 Speaker 1: everyone's saying is she's gonna do it. She was one 391 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: of the two republic lookings to vote for the commission, 392 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,640 Speaker 1: along with Adam Kinzinger and Kevin McCarthy. His first thing 393 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: was just saying, like, body, except this, you will have 394 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,919 Speaker 1: all of your committee assignments taken away, which will render 395 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 1: you fucking useless. And that's a pretty big threat. But 396 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 1: Pelosi Stilley not for li Shaney because she she's like, 397 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: I'm already dead, motherfucker. You think you can kill me more? 398 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: What is already dead? Motherfucker? From my bills? Like she's 399 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: She's expressed her in Kinsinger how much more they've had 400 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 1: to spend on their personal security as a result of 401 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: acknowledging reality and what you know, once Pelosi named her 402 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: to the committee, said quote, what happened on Janrary six 403 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: can never happen again. Those who are responsible for the 404 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: attack need to be held accountable, and this is like 405 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: committee will fulfill that responsibility in a professional, expeditious, and 406 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:52,719 Speaker 1: non partisan manner. Now that got a lot of Republicans 407 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 1: upset because they were saying, like, well, it lights out 408 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: for you. But she's already it seems like she feels 409 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: like she's probably not gonna make it past three anyway, 410 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 1: um in Wyoming. So for her, she's like, Okay, watch 411 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 1: me do, watch me do this on the way out. 412 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: And Adam Kinzinger, we still don't know if he's going 413 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: to join or not. But he's again another person who 414 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 1: made the mistake of acknowledging what happened and saying that 415 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: is fucking not good. And maybe we do need to actually, 416 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: you know, figure out who was involved so they can 417 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: be you know, drug out into the sunlight. And when 418 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: he was asked whether or not he was worried about 419 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:35,360 Speaker 1: McCarthy's threats, he said, who gives a ship? And then 420 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: I said, he goes on to say, when you've got 421 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: people who say crazy stuff and you're not gonna make 422 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: and you're not gonna make that threat, but you make 423 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: that threat to truth tellers, you've lost any credibility. I 424 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 1: did not understand that sentence at all, like you have 425 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: that And I was just like, like you could have 426 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: stopped because that, but you make that threat to truth. Yeah, 427 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: it's like these are a public and he's in some 428 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: world like some far off. It makes sense to someone, right, Yeah, 429 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see if we get actual results from this. 430 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,199 Speaker 1: But it's fun drama. And also just shout out to 431 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 1: Liz Cheney. I know her family is probably going through 432 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: it right now with the past unkey don the whole, 433 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: the horrible No, but they're hell bound connection. Yeah, there's 434 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: like something that's remarkably bonding about doing work crimes together, 435 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 1: especially when like you're doing work crimes that define an 436 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 1: entire century. So shout out to them. Let's talk about 437 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 1: police real quick. There's a new trend in being proudly 438 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: belligerent in the world of police. So in April, young 439 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: black man was having a mental health episode in a 440 00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,439 Speaker 1: Walmart and within a minute of showing up, the police 441 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: tased shot and then chased him again until he was dead. Uh, 442 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: this is uh textbookcase where a mental health specialist, a 443 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 1: social worker, like literally anything else would have been better 444 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: than an armed police officer, like a fucking hockey team, 445 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: like anything you send anyone besides the police. But so 446 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 1: people are protesting, and yesterday morning, while people were protesting, 447 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: you know the police force that basically murdered him, an 448 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: officer walked up and told them they had to move 449 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 1: their side, and when they tried to have a conversation 450 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: with the cop, he took out his phone and started 451 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: playing Taylor Swift, like put his phone in his breast 452 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: pocket and started playing Taylor Taylor Swift really loud, so 453 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 1: you couldn't really hear him or the people trying to 454 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: talk to him. And the activists were like kind of confused. 455 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: They were like, yeah, it was are we having a 456 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: dance party? What happening? And right, yeah, the sergeant replied 457 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: the all all he knew was they wouldn't be able 458 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: to post their video to YouTube because there would be 459 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: copyright claim and like just the like fucking grin on 460 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,679 Speaker 1: his face as he was doing this, and just like 461 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:16,959 Speaker 1: how clever he thought it was and probably wasn't his idea. 462 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 1: It's probably like his teen daughter or something like yeah, alright, 463 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,919 Speaker 1: that's not even completely true though. I was, well at 464 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: least because when I was seeing that video on Twitter, 465 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 1: I think some people were saying that all the YouTube 466 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 1: channel would have to do is debonatize that particular video 467 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: and it would be okay, because it's like they're uploading 468 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: like the clean track to their video. That's edited in, 469 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: so the sweepers work a little bit differently, those copyright 470 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: sweepers that go on the internet to figure out if 471 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: you're running a foul But it's the great irony of 472 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: watching like intellectual property copyright law again come to the 473 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: defense of police brutality in this like weird way. You're like, 474 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: it's also dark and he had it ready to he 475 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 1: was just like right there, like just it was he 476 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: was ready to go. Like it was like they can 477 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: imagine just before they were all, I guess arriving to 478 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: go beat people up or kill people they had They're like, okay, 479 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: let's see how you didn't do Taylor Swift. Okay, what 480 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: do you have? You have a little nil nozex or whatever, 481 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: like they're all all have their music ready. Yeah Taylor Swift, though, 482 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: I'm not little not zax. Because you know how the 483 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: white supremises love some Taylors. That's a good point. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 484 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: not saying she's she's what's premises, just saying right, well, 485 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: they were mad though some Taylor. But when she was like, 486 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: I'm not with that, and they're like, oh yeah, they 487 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: were upset. You're you being not really unequivocal just gave 488 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: us the gray area to believe you were one of 489 00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: our great artists. It is like the the idea is 490 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: such a like email forward that gets sent to your 491 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,959 Speaker 1: dad at work type fucking like half asked, not true 492 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: idea that is just like that is the culture of 493 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: these police forces, and like that is what they're going 494 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: to put energy into, Like people, the idea that people 495 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 1: are putting tampons in their fucking iced tea or whatever, 496 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: or like the fact that you can just like play 497 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: YouTube song and it'll get the evidence of you abusing 498 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: and killing people taken down. It's just like it's just 499 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 1: so stupid and half asked, and that's all like that's 500 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: the standard they're held too, and they would rather just 501 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: be belligerent and just spite the people who are criticizing them, 502 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: rather than even acknowledge that there's a problem in the 503 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: first place. I think that would because if they acknowledge 504 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: anything would be that you know that the timer could 505 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: end up ticking down to when they be more people 506 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: like okay, right, so this is an obsolute way of 507 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: dealing with things. We're gonna have to switch it up 508 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: because we just have a group of goons who you know, 509 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 1: learn all their new clever ways of brutalizing people with 510 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: TikTok videos, like hey, use this song and it can't 511 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: get uploaded and they're like, oh cool. Pretty soon, I 512 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: bet you they're gonna be wearing like uniforms that are 513 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: made out of like material that like cameras like like 514 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: have trouble capturing and ship because it's just like the 515 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: same like this is. I can only see where this 516 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: goes further, right if it if this is one way 517 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: to obscure or to hide their misdeeds, then I'm sure 518 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:39,239 Speaker 1: there'll be in further escalation aside from what we already have. 519 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: Like we see how cops will lift the hoods of 520 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 1: their cars to block dash cams and things like them, Like, 521 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: well it's on, but I just had to hood up 522 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: to not capture anything. Yeah. But that's the interesting thing 523 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 1: is like he was so confident that the video, that 524 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: the song would be able to protect him, like this 525 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: tillers some shield that Like he started to show off 526 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: his badge and name and stuff like he's like, you 527 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: guys can take that down because I'm going to be 528 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: protected by guess there's some ship called Daily Motion, right, 529 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: There's so many. So there's so many other websites that 530 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: Facebook and literally anywhere people want to. Right, let's talk 531 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: about the Supreme Court real quick, because as mentioned and 532 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: and there's like a lot of I'm seeing on like 533 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: anywhere from the center to the right, people being like, well, 534 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: these are not as big a deal as you think, 535 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 1: but like when you like thinking about behavioral engineering type 536 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: ship and thinking about like corporations and how you get 537 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:50,479 Speaker 1: corporations to do anything, and how just what we know 538 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 1: about how corporations behave these are major rulings. So first 539 00:32:56,080 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 1: there was a ruling where the Supreme Court found the 540 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: people who suffered under child slavery could not sue American 541 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: corporations who profited from the child slavery. So nest Lee's 542 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: and a lot of chocolate companies for long periods of 543 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: their history, we're profiting off of child slavery. You know, 544 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 1: they weren't saying like there wasn't a nest Lee corporate 545 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: meeting where they said go do child slavery. Instead, they 546 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: were just like, you know, we like when labor costs 547 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: are near zero, and you know, they let the dirty 548 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: work be done in other countries. And that's the Supreme courts, 549 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: like they technically didn't say it in America, so we 550 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: have to let them go. Like that's been the biggest 551 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: trend in the Supreme Court over the past twenty years. 552 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: Is just like absolutely letting corporations get away with fucking anything. 553 00:33:55,360 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: And you're just like, like they are like the thing 554 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: that most needs to be protected in the in this 555 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 1: country as opposed to the single most powerful actor in 556 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: the United States. Yeah, and like I'm looking. I'm looking 557 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: here too, and it you know, it's it's wild. We 558 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: have a road here in l A called Caesar Chevis, right, 559 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: We name an entire road after a man who did 560 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: so much for so many people, And the Supreme Court 561 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: ruled that a California regulation, which allows union organizers to 562 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 1: recruit agricultural workers at their workplace, violated the constitutional rights. 563 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,959 Speaker 1: So their employee, like it, um did so much work 564 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 1: that this man did and you still like having the 565 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: nerve to walk on his street here in California. Is 566 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 1: is so wild How we shipped on people doing real change. 567 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:53,919 Speaker 1: We shipped on the actual worker, and we shipped on 568 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 1: people wanted to form unions to protect themselves at the 569 00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 1: expense of who. Like that's That's what I'm not understanding, 570 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: Like nobody's gonna not be rich anymore, Like they're still 571 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 1: gonna be rich. I'm all for people having their money. 572 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,760 Speaker 1: People have your money. I don't care. Have you millions, 573 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 1: have you billions? I don't give a ship. Like it's 574 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: not going to change. I get that, But at the 575 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: expense of people who are barely making it, who do 576 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,760 Speaker 1: real things for change, who you take away like something 577 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 1: that people fault and died for for a corporation that's 578 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 1: here today maybe gone tomorrow is so insane to me, 579 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 1: is so infuriating to me as well. Yeah, what is 580 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 1: the constitutional right being violated here? You know what I mean? 581 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: Like the ruling came about because corporations were like, these 582 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 1: unions are coming on to our land that we own 583 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: and contacting our workers. It's like a complete bullshit technicality 584 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: trespassing basically. But yeah, basically the first one, the slavery one, 585 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 1: was like an eight to one ruling. This one is 586 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 1: six six to three, with the three liberal justices like 587 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: being the ones who held out. But Jack, are you 588 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: saying that some liberal people like allowed slate, they still 589 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: want slavery to go like liberals? But oh, man, I 590 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: gotta go, I'll talk to you all. I mean, it's fine. 591 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: Like Obama, who's like number one liberal, like a viral 592 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: Lifetime always said like that the arc of the universe 593 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: bends towards justice, like he took that Martin Luther King Jr. Quote. 594 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 1: But I feel like we're also seeing that the arc 595 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 1: of the universe in America bends too towards like erasure 596 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: of the work done by left wing and like, you know, 597 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 1: community organizers, says our Chovas. Like when I was growing up, 598 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: I was like, you mean, Julio, says our chat As, 599 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: the boxer. I didn't know who the funk that was, 600 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 1: like growing up in a public education in Ohio, And 601 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: like mar Luther King Jr. Like all of the community 602 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: building and like workersn't poor rights work that he did 603 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: gets erased and it just turns into a message of 604 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:13,439 Speaker 1: like being the value of being color blind. And it's 605 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: just like yeah, man, that and then Obama, who starts 606 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 1: out as a community organizer, becomes like the person who 607 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,359 Speaker 1: bails out Wall Street. Yeah, it's just live long enough 608 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 1: to see yourself becoming the villain. I guess. Yeah. Yeah. Also, 609 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 1: did I call him Caesar Chaves earlier, and I says, 610 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: are I'm sure I might have too, but it's okay, 611 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 1: you know what, we blame education, education and cancel my 612 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 1: history teach America America. I believe that my lesson on, 613 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:47,360 Speaker 1: saysar Shops was just the name Caesar shov Is that's it, 614 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 1: you know, like that's that's all the information you get 615 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,760 Speaker 1: is like through it was a man whose name we mispronounced. 616 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 1: There you guys a day, that's it? Yeah? Yeah? Do 617 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 1: you guys think that what what would a class war 618 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 1: look like to you all? Like I I have trouble 619 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: because you know, it seems like we we may be 620 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 1: heading toward towards that. Maybe I don't know. I don't 621 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 1: even know how it would look though, because I feel 622 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 1: so unpowerful that like it feels like it feels like 623 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,839 Speaker 1: taking a knife to a buzuka fight. Yeah, I mean 624 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: I think it will look like last year. Yeah, I 625 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 1: think it'll have to look like, you know, the community 626 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: organizing that happened last year, but like ramped up, and 627 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, I think it'll have to be like 628 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: something that starts and then like builds up a momentum 629 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 1: of its own. Because unions have been so defanged and 630 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 1: like the actual or you know, organizations that organized people 631 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:54,360 Speaker 1: have been so just knee captain America that like there's 632 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: not I don't I don't know like how a planned 633 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 1: out thing happens. I think it's going to have to 634 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 1: be people reach a breaking point and like come together. 635 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: But I don't know, man, that the Supreme Court is 636 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 1: just so far to the right that I don't know, 637 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,800 Speaker 1: like what, Like I guess there's also generational stuff happening 638 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: where like now even young Republicans or socialists. So like, 639 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: eventually maybe once these this is the second time I've 640 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 1: been like once these baby boomers mercifully die off in 641 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 1: the past week. But you know once they once they 642 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 1: go away, maybe things will start to, I don't know, 643 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 1: resemble move move in a different direction. I mean, you know, 644 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: like we're literally talking about child slavery here, and we're 645 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:44,439 Speaker 1: literally talking about not giving people their rights to care 646 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,360 Speaker 1: about themselves. Like this is what we're talking in. The 647 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 1: Supreme Court is ruling against these things, and it's just 648 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 1: like it's two thousand twenty one, and you would think 649 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: the better part of us as a humanity would realize 650 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 1: even if you're a Republican or Tim mccry or liberal conservative, 651 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 1: whatever it is that like, children shouldn't be children shouldn't 652 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,759 Speaker 1: be slaves, they shouldn't be working under bad conditions, they 653 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 1: shouldn't be working at all, you know, and for a 654 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 1: party that cares so much about life and pro life 655 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,240 Speaker 1: and all these things, it's, you know, it's it's so cliche, 656 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,359 Speaker 1: but it's so true that they care about you know, 657 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 1: life up until they pop out of their moms and 658 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: you know, in terms of the real world, and it's 659 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: like a two fingers motherfucker, Like, you know, it's so wild, 660 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 1: it's so wild. I don't, yeah, I mean, so the 661 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:43,359 Speaker 1: child slavery thing, like is the thing that it's taken 662 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: away is the ability for them to sue corporations. And 663 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:52,800 Speaker 1: corporations are inherently like designed to be institutions that create 664 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 1: value for their shareholders. So it is their job to 665 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 1: use whatever the cheapest form of like the system is 666 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: designed to take advantage of child slavery and foreign markets. 667 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: And then just to like give a little more detail 668 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: on the unionizing thing, Like what unions were able to 669 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: do was come to farms to like organize people because 670 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 1: that was the only place that you could actually reach 671 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 1: workers because these corporations would bust people in from off 672 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 1: location and you couldn't like reach them through the newspaper 673 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,880 Speaker 1: a lot of times because maybe they didn't speak English, 674 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: you know, all sorts of institutional reasons that they were 675 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 1: hard to organize. So you needed to be able to 676 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:42,319 Speaker 1: come onto the farms to actually reach the workers and 677 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,839 Speaker 1: tell them what their rights were. And this is going 678 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: to make it so that corporations once again, like they 679 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 1: just no longer need to allow that to happen. So 680 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:57,400 Speaker 1: it once again becomes like their duty as like shareholder 681 00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:01,960 Speaker 1: value creators to just can treat people like ship Like 682 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: that is the bottom line of what of what these 683 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 1: rulings mean. The language of law, you know how like 684 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:11,759 Speaker 1: like legally's for lack of a better term, I feel 685 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 1: like the language of the law here in in the 686 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: United States does a lot to distance you from the 687 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 1: human reality of things. Like it is as simple as 688 00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: your your saying, da keys that it's it's child slavery, 689 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 1: it's child slavery. What kind of decision are you going 690 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 1: to make a decision that perpetuates child slavery? But then 691 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 1: when you get into a long, days, long legal argument 692 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 1: with the that's sort of you know, the language of 693 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,359 Speaker 1: you know, I can't even speak it because I'm just 694 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 1: a dumb comedian, but like it's all of that high salutint, 695 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 1: you know, dispassionate, non humanitarian language goes a long way 696 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,640 Speaker 1: to going like, well, of course we should give more 697 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: rights to two corporations because you know, their corporations are 698 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 1: bigger than us, so deserve better rights or whatever the 699 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 1: fun is going on in their head. It's just it's 700 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 1: it's so anti social, it's so anti social. Yeah, if 701 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: you made it, like whatever the fucking logic is the 702 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 1: Supreme Court is using. If you made it so that 703 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 1: these people could come back and sue a company after 704 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: they profited it off of like treating them or you know, 705 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 1: using their slave labor, then the corporation is going to 706 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 1: spend a shipload of money to make sure that ship 707 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 1: doesn't happen anymore. And now instead they're going to spend 708 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: a shipload of money just ignoring that problem. So instead 709 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,439 Speaker 1: of using like American capitalism for good, we've just sort 710 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 1: of passed the book. All right, let's take a quick 711 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 1: break and we'll come back and talk Nielsen ratings. Oh, yes, sir, 712 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: and we're back and let's do it. A little quick 713 00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:01,359 Speaker 1: hit of good news. The Fiser and Maderna vaccines, uh 714 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:06,439 Speaker 1: may last a long time, longer than we initially anticipated. 715 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:08,439 Speaker 1: So if you're one of these people who was waiting 716 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 1: for the Liddy version, well, if there's a lit version 717 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 1: was lost, better look, hey, you funck with get to 718 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,080 Speaker 1: get these m R and A vaccines. The studies are 719 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:22,560 Speaker 1: now showing that you may not need booster shots, that 720 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,280 Speaker 1: this the efficacy of them may last for a really 721 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 1: long time. So I just want to read this one bit. 722 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 1: Findings add to growing evidence that most people immunize with 723 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,760 Speaker 1: the MR and A vaccines, so that would be Fiser 724 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,360 Speaker 1: and Maderna may not need boosters so long as the 725 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,879 Speaker 1: virus and its variants do not evolve much beyond their 726 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 1: current forms, which makes sense, which isn't guaranteed because life. 727 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 1: But even better news, people who recovered from COVID nineteen 728 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,440 Speaker 1: before being vaccinated may not need boosters even if the 729 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:53,879 Speaker 1: virus does make a significant transformation. So they're saying, if 730 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: you are someone who recovered from COVID and you got vaccinated, 731 00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:01,200 Speaker 1: you're looking at even better outcomes for people who weren't 732 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 1: infected and just got vaccinated. That's because they've been looking 733 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 1: at sort of immune cells, and they say they recognize 734 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 1: that the virus lie quiescent in the bone marrow for 735 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: at least eight months after infection, and so called memory 736 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,919 Speaker 1: B cells continue to mature and strengthen for at least 737 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 1: a year after infection. Based on those findings, researchers suggested 738 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 1: that immunity might last for years, possibly a lifetime, and 739 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,879 Speaker 1: people who are infected and later vaccinated. But how long 740 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 1: does the magnetism last is my question. It depends on 741 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 1: how let's say, skeptical about the Yeah, yeah, yeah TV TV. 742 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 1: They're more how long does Bill Bill Gates get to 743 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,960 Speaker 1: listen to my thoughts? Bro? Sorry, he's already been listening 744 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 1: to them. Spoiler alert spoiler on all the surveillance state stuff. 745 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:50,239 Speaker 1: It's all it's all happening at your phone. Yeah, but 746 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 1: unfortunately you've got the J and J might not be 747 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 1: as durable damn in the long term. What it So, 748 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,279 Speaker 1: they obviously feel effective for the variance we have. Now 749 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 1: it's just more like long long view saying if we're 750 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 1: dealing with this kind of COVID, Yeah, it turns out 751 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 1: the news is very promising. That's great. I just feel 752 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 1: bad for J and J. Did you get Jane? No, 753 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 1: you're which one? Did you get Jack McKay feiser, Oh 754 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:20,880 Speaker 1: that's right, of course, how yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It 755 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,320 Speaker 1: just feels like the J the people who got jan J, 756 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,600 Speaker 1: like I have a friend who got it, and then 757 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:29,920 Speaker 1: the next day they were like, we're not giving this 758 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 1: out anymore and like pulled it off the market for 759 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,759 Speaker 1: like a week, and then now they're like, yeah, you're 760 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 1: gonna need another one of these bad boys. Sorry. It's 761 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,600 Speaker 1: just like all it felt like cutting corners from the 762 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: start because you only had to get one and it 763 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 1: was like slightly lower, and now it's just like NonStop. Yeah. 764 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 1: But I mean not to say this isn't to say 765 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 1: that J and J is useless. It's just because, of course, 766 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 1: because it's not an m r and A vaccine, it's 767 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 1: just operating differently. And so the long view is that 768 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 1: and that was always the case. That's why the efficacy 769 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:03,160 Speaker 1: rates were higher for the m RNA vaccines than they 770 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 1: were and you could probably get that other vaccine, right, 771 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 1: It's not like you get the J J and you 772 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 1: can't get I don't know that would be super fucked up, 773 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: or like, hey man, it's like you're trying to download 774 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 1: a Windows application onto a Maco West computer. Right, that's 775 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:19,879 Speaker 1: and it's not gonna happen. But you can't double up 776 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 1: on my You can't just like keep getting vaccines until 777 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 1: you get the one you want, right, Like, no, no, 778 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:29,760 Speaker 1: I don't think I'm talking long term, you know, eventually eventually. 779 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:34,359 Speaker 1: Last week, I just want like I didn't even get sick. 780 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:38,640 Speaker 1: Could we go hard on like a couple modernism? Like 781 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,600 Speaker 1: just do a you know, tasting menu. Can we can 782 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: we do like a swirl like when you or a 783 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 1: graveyard soda? You know the sodas in one. I got Astras, Anaca, fire, 784 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,919 Speaker 1: bion tech, Maderna, J and J, A couple of weird 785 00:47:57,960 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 1: ones I didn't even hear. But I don't really know 786 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 1: how to pronoun on something, but I got him. The 787 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:06,520 Speaker 1: Rick Carlisle is what I think of with the graveyard 788 00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,800 Speaker 1: that he as a as a grown man in his forties, 789 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,800 Speaker 1: still when he goes to a restaurant orders a graveyard. 790 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:16,320 Speaker 1: How many times a year does that happen? Probably zero? 791 00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:22,479 Speaker 1: Actually like four servers. Yeah, I'm sorry, sir, what, Yeah, 792 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:26,440 Speaker 1: you're not at a pool concession. Stand you understand that, right, 793 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 1: I said, I know what I want. Okay, all right, 794 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: let's talk about this UFO report. I mean, in some 795 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 1: ways it's uneventful. They didn't explain ship. They explained one 796 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 1: of the I think you know it was over a 797 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,879 Speaker 1: hundred cases that they were looking at, explained one as 798 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:51,759 Speaker 1: a deflating weather balloon. All the rest were not explained, 799 00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 1: and they specified they called out twenty one reports of 800 00:48:56,239 --> 00:49:00,319 Speaker 1: eighteen episodes that have no known explanation, like, based on 801 00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:04,759 Speaker 1: what they saw, they can't be explained. But then they 802 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 1: do go out of their way to say that, like, 803 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,320 Speaker 1: we definitely need more data. You know, some of the 804 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 1: targeting cameras that were used are hard to read. They're 805 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 1: not things that were used to seeing. So it's not 806 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 1: the bombshell that I feel like UFO and enthusiasts were 807 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,840 Speaker 1: hoping for. But you know, they did give it the 808 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:27,839 Speaker 1: old College try for a couple of months, and they 809 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 1: weren't able to explain really anything. So it's a total 810 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,919 Speaker 1: of a hundred and forty three reports gathered since two 811 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:39,840 Speaker 1: thousand four remain unexplained. The assumption among the skeptics. Seems 812 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 1: to be that there is some motivation for all of 813 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: these reports to start popping up, popping up at the 814 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: same time, like the US is so far and above 815 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 1: enemy weapon capabilities that they need to create like a 816 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:58,040 Speaker 1: boogeyman to motivate increased like weapons spending. Finally, without going 817 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 1: to that's US. That's there's like some massive pushbacks on 818 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:09,359 Speaker 1: like weapons spending as of right now. Yeah, I'm I'm 819 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:12,360 Speaker 1: a skeptic enough in how the foreign policy works in 820 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:14,520 Speaker 1: this country, you know, like we don't need aliens to 821 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 1: keep them on, Like that's I don't. I don't think 822 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:21,680 Speaker 1: that's a necessary part of it, But go ahead, there's 823 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 1: I I just they still it's the number of them, 824 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 1: the similarity between them, and the fact that many of 825 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 1: them have both eyewitness testimony the weapons targeting cameras and radar. 826 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 1: It's like that. That was the thing from the sixty 827 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:42,439 Speaker 1: minutes report that like sticks with me is that they 828 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 1: kept seeing this phenomenon on radar. They scrambled the jets 829 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:48,959 Speaker 1: out to go look at it, and then with their 830 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:54,840 Speaker 1: eyes the fighter jet pilots saw this inexplicable like white 831 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:58,319 Speaker 1: tic tac that was like circling them. So for that one, 832 00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:04,480 Speaker 1: it has to be a an explanation where the radar 833 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 1: caused them to scramble these fighter jets, and the fighter 834 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 1: jet happened to be flown by two fighter pilots who 835 00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:18,239 Speaker 1: wanted to create this hoax around like UFOs. So I mean, 836 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 1: it's possible, for sure, probably more possible than alien life 837 00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 1: forms like living amongst us, but I don't know it 838 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 1: is at least not as open and shut as like 839 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:38,759 Speaker 1: the skeptics. Rebuttals that I find least convincing are like 840 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:41,759 Speaker 1: one off things where it's like it's just a weather 841 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 1: balloon scene through this one camera. It's like, yeah, but 842 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:48,360 Speaker 1: it was seen by radar a camera and then instance 843 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 1: that one instance. But it's also like the similarity between them. 844 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:55,720 Speaker 1: Are we saying that because one person said tic tac 845 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 1: or there's this one video of the tic tac shaped 846 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:02,879 Speaker 1: thing that that's then influencing people. And then Chelsea from 847 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:07,520 Speaker 1: your kind of the world of your podcast, I guess 848 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 1: I find that just as interesting, like what about our 849 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 1: culture changed from wanting to believe in flying? So like 850 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 1: if we're to assume that this is all bullshit or 851 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 1: like a figment of the human imagination. Then what about 852 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 1: our imagination changed so that we wanted to be a 853 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:30,960 Speaker 1: tic tac as opposed to like a flying saucer. I 854 00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:34,120 Speaker 1: guess I couldn't answer that that maybe that has some 855 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,840 Speaker 1: like I mean, the book I read that one of 856 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: the books I read that really influenced the show is 857 00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:44,280 Speaker 1: actually Carl Young, which okay, yeah, just whatever, problematic person, 858 00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 1: but this and also really god, just a very interesting person. 859 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 1: But he wrote a book about kind of like the 860 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 1: psychology of the UFO hysteria. I'm not I have no 861 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 1: skin in this game in terms of our aliens real 862 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 1: or not. We're talking about this before. But you know, 863 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 1: in an ever expanding infinite universe, I certainly have no 864 00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:06,839 Speaker 1: problem imagining that we are not alone. And that's about 865 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 1: as far as I go into having like a real opinion. 866 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,320 Speaker 1: But he was writing about the forties, and that was 867 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 1: the first time that I mean, these sightings was popping 868 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,240 Speaker 1: up all the time, all of a sudden, like boom 869 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 1: boom boom boom boom all over the country. And it 870 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:20,800 Speaker 1: was right around the time that we were really fearing 871 00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:24,399 Speaker 1: like a Nazi invasion, right, we were really fearing sort 872 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 1: of an invasion from without coming to the country that 873 00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:30,719 Speaker 1: we hadn't experienced. So it's just you can kind of 874 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:32,879 Speaker 1: I don't know what would be now, like what the 875 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:35,360 Speaker 1: reason would be now, except that you know, Tom DeLong 876 00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 1: really led the charge and finally got us to believe 877 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 1: in aliens. Isn't that fucking weird that Tom DeLong just 878 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 1: like he lived his truth because I think about being, 879 00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 1: you know, a ten year old kid listening to Blake 880 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 1: one and two or however old and listening to that 881 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,360 Speaker 1: Aliens is it exists song, and it's such a great 882 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,840 Speaker 1: anthem of a conspiracy theorists sort of being like, I 883 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 1: don't want to believe this, but I think that it 884 00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,799 Speaker 1: might be true. I don't know. I grew up with 885 00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:03,799 Speaker 1: like my dad speaking of shapes of UFOs. My dad 886 00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 1: is somebody who was like, has a million sort of 887 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:09,439 Speaker 1: whopper tails, you know, he can't really tell they're true. 888 00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:11,319 Speaker 1: But this actually came up the other day because I 889 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:13,759 Speaker 1: had to attend a wedding with both my biological mother 890 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,120 Speaker 1: and that side of my family and my biological father 891 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:18,600 Speaker 1: and that side of family, which is not like ideal, 892 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 1: but um, they were able to have a nice conversation 893 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 1: about my dad this story he has of a UFO encounter, 894 00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 1: which was confirmed by her, and she always believed it 895 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 1: because he came back and he was so scared, like 896 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:33,920 Speaker 1: shaking and really really freaked out. So he was like 897 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,640 Speaker 1: driving his truck out to get beer after some party 898 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 1: and he was with his friend jar Shaw, who calls 899 00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: me Sheila and will not meet me. And I have 900 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 1: never met my dad's best friend. And it's the whole thing, 901 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,600 Speaker 1: but he just calls me Sheila. It's it's he just 902 00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 1: it's like become a joke now, like he's shy, but 903 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 1: now it's been thirty years, so it's just a joke. 904 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:56,440 Speaker 1: Now this is your you know, you can cut this 905 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:59,399 Speaker 1: part out, jar Shaw. It's just such a good name. Yeah, 906 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:04,040 Speaker 1: some therapy is like a combination. No, it's a last name. 907 00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 1: It's Yeah. So they're driving their truck in through the 908 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:14,279 Speaker 1: woods outside Olympia and they hit something just boom and 909 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:16,560 Speaker 1: you know, slam on the brakes and they get out 910 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,920 Speaker 1: and see this orb, like a silver orb, and it 911 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,759 Speaker 1: just suddenly like rises up and just shoots off into 912 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,960 Speaker 1: the woods. That's what they said they saw, right, And 913 00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,160 Speaker 1: that's a story I was told my whole life growing up, 914 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:33,359 Speaker 1: you know, and so I probably didn't happen, you know, 915 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,960 Speaker 1: like it sounds crazy, but there's like, you know, there's 916 00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:40,919 Speaker 1: two people who say it happened, probably too drunk people. Yeah, 917 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,759 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's it's a weird story. Friends who 918 00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:47,160 Speaker 1: got each other's backs, Like, oh yeah, yeah, you gotta 919 00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:51,399 Speaker 1: get my back. Man. Let's say this orb. I will 920 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 1: never know the truth. But you know that is like 921 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,279 Speaker 1: woven in the fabric of my d n A is 922 00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:59,359 Speaker 1: like this story and other alien types of stories. And 923 00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:01,920 Speaker 1: I just have no idea. But I think, you know, 924 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:04,440 Speaker 1: this circular thing is interesting because that's not something I've 925 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 1: heard a lot about it, Like it seems like a 926 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:09,439 Speaker 1: what like men in black scenario or something like that. 927 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:13,800 Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't. I don't have a ton of thoughts. 928 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:15,759 Speaker 1: The only thing that we like to really disprove is 929 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 1: that like reptilian aliens bred with humans to create like 930 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:22,960 Speaker 1: pedophile elites. You know, like we don't want to think 931 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,480 Speaker 1: we don't. That's what we're trying to kind of deep on. 932 00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:32,560 Speaker 1: But otherwise, yeah, they blank sideways, and they blank sideways. 933 00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:37,440 Speaker 1: Here's a video of it. Blink two sets of eyes, yeah, 934 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 1: one of them, Yeah, two sets of eyelids. But you know, 935 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:46,960 Speaker 1: so I am scared of aliens. I don't really want 936 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 1: to deal with it. It's definitely one of my biggest fears, 937 00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:51,880 Speaker 1: which I don't really know why I watched all Remember 938 00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 1: like Fox Caught on tape, you guys, I know, like 939 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 1: UFOs caught on tape. It was such a huge thing 940 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:59,879 Speaker 1: in the nineties too, And I don't know, I want 941 00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:03,480 Speaker 1: to do a whole episode that that traces this so 942 00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: get back. I wonder what it offers people, like sort 943 00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:11,000 Speaker 1: of philosophically for those that are believers, and what is 944 00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 1: sort of anathema to the people who are like really 945 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 1: aggressive about denying any other life existing out in the 946 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 1: universe at all, or the idea that we could be 947 00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 1: so ignorant about our own planet or life on this 948 00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 1: planet that it's just like protecting ourselves, like that's we 949 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,120 Speaker 1: know everything there is to know. We know everything is 950 00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 1: to know. It's like both are terrifying, right, like the 951 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:36,800 Speaker 1: existence or non existence, because if it's non existence, we're 952 00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 1: just floating in an infinite darkness with like no hope, right, 953 00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:43,360 Speaker 1: But if it's like they're aliens, that might be scary, 954 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:46,000 Speaker 1: but it's kind of like the Illuminati, Right, It's like, Okay, 955 00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 1: maybe there's something up here that even if they're nefarious, 956 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:52,240 Speaker 1: it shows me that there's like something controlling the chaos. 957 00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:54,640 Speaker 1: You know. I think so much stuff just comes back 958 00:57:54,640 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 1: to like the anxiety of of not knowing and the 959 00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 1: anxiety of death and all of those sort of things, 960 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:01,440 Speaker 1: and people to go in different directions depending on how 961 00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 1: they're raised, and uh so we get this battle. I 962 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:08,720 Speaker 1: never really butt into it growing up. I wasn't even 963 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,040 Speaker 1: really interested in like time life stuff. I just like 964 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 1: put that all in the category of like I was 965 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 1: more interested in, like like the explanation for ancient aliens 966 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:22,320 Speaker 1: being like inherent white supremacy and like that. They're just like, well, 967 00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:26,520 Speaker 1: they couldn't have built these massive pyramids because they weren't white. 968 00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,840 Speaker 1: And it's like, no, there were civilizations that we just 969 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:34,200 Speaker 1: wiped out that you are giving like way too short 970 00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:38,960 Speaker 1: credit for this like space of sightings and videos and 971 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:42,880 Speaker 1: like military I don't know, there's just like a a 972 00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:46,840 Speaker 1: sense that you hear among fighter pilots and you know, 973 00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:49,320 Speaker 1: who knows if they have their own motivation, but like 974 00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:56,160 Speaker 1: this this particular spate just doesn't like the no explanation 975 00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 1: has like quite sat right with me to this point. 976 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:01,760 Speaker 1: And usually and I'm like looking at history or like 977 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:04,160 Speaker 1: a story this much, I'm able to come up with 978 00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:07,120 Speaker 1: like a working model of the event that fits within 979 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 1: the version of the universe that like my brain has 980 00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:13,200 Speaker 1: formed in the background, and like this one, just like 981 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:16,840 Speaker 1: it still feels very unsettled to me. So that's why 982 00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:19,160 Speaker 1: I that's just like how my brain works. I'm like 983 00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:21,479 Speaker 1: very interested in it until I can like kind of 984 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 1: uh explain it. I jumped straight to bringing out the 985 00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: welcome wagon for the extraterrestrials. Yeah, I mean, I'm just like, 986 00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 1: spare me, please, ignorant, right. That worked well for they, 987 00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:38,640 Speaker 1: That worked well for the the revelers in Independence days. Yeah. 988 00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 1: At the first Interstate Bank building in downtown, Man, they're 989 00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:53,800 Speaker 1: opening the doors. It's like, I mean, I think you're 990 00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:55,320 Speaker 1: I think the way you're doing it, Jack is good. 991 00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:57,600 Speaker 1: It's like, let's just we don't know, we don't know, 992 00:59:57,720 --> 01:00:02,160 Speaker 1: we just don't know. Not it's a great like place 993 01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:04,360 Speaker 1: to sit in, you know sometimes like we don't know. 994 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:06,840 Speaker 1: And so that opens up because if you say they're 995 01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 1: not real or they are real, then you're gonna be 996 01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:11,640 Speaker 1: processing all the data through your confirmation bias, so you're 997 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 1: gonna see all this evidence in one way where it's 998 01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:15,520 Speaker 1: like if you don't know, then you can like you 999 01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:19,320 Speaker 1: just like observe it and eventually maybe come to a conclusion. 1000 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:22,240 Speaker 1: But I just don't think until we see if, until 1001 01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,800 Speaker 1: we have any definitive proof, how we're going to to 1002 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 1: say I don't know yes or no. Yeah, Like this 1003 01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:34,000 Speaker 1: is like as much as like I don't believe in ghosts, 1004 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:38,200 Speaker 1: I really didn't believe in UFOs prior to this whole 1005 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:41,680 Speaker 1: story and like doing research into it. So it's I 1006 01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:45,560 Speaker 1: feel very stupid, like it doesn't sit right with me 1007 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:48,920 Speaker 1: that I like, I am open to it. But that's 1008 01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:52,880 Speaker 1: where I'm at. Have you been to Roswell before the town? No, 1009 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:57,479 Speaker 1: I'm like not that I know. I drove through though 1010 01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,160 Speaker 1: on like a road trip and went there and it 1011 01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:03,720 Speaker 1: is just the tackiest, most fantastic town. It's just like 1012 01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,320 Speaker 1: is not The town's not doing well and they're completely 1013 01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 1: subsisting on like alien plastic alien toys made in China. 1014 01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:15,560 Speaker 1: That's just how they're getting by. But the museum is 1015 01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:18,000 Speaker 1: very fun. I will give a museum that I like 1016 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:19,919 Speaker 1: it when it's like it's so tactic.
