But yeah, kind of just like tired, 67 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: and I can't smell um or taste anything. And then 68 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: it's it's weird because it's it's very much in my 69 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: sinuses only, which I didn't know was necessarily so different 70 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: for people. Yeah, it's so different, but the taste and 71 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: smell thing really seems to be like consistent. Yeah, it's 72 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: nearly like it's weird. Okay, now that you you can 73 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 1: indulge all my curiosity. I mean I have a few 74 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: of my friends also had COVID and said the same thing. 75 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: But are we talking your full blown your taste buds 76 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: just on mute? Nothing like I can eat an onion 77 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,559 Speaker 1: right now, and it's not like just nothing I drank 78 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 1: this morning. I drank orange juice after brushing my teeth. 79 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 1: Didn't even notice. You're just doing all the things that 80 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: taste bad, Like I can't do anything eating cigarettes for 81 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: no reason. I had a dark chocolate bar and then 82 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: a bunch of passion fruit juice that bad, bad combo. 83 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just like whenever I have chocolate 84 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: and then I ever wanted sip something after. If it's 85 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: not like water, it's always a fucking mess like whatever 86 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: it is, like it's like a soda, like like no snow. 87 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: I mean, although passion fruit and chocolate do go together 88 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: very well, it's just something about when you have like 89 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: sweet dairy flavor in your mouth and then the citric 90 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: A said, I don't know what, Yeah, it's not it. 91 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: What have you been eating to somewhat? Is there? Like 92 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: get over the monotony of it all? Oh man, I 93 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 1: mean I can. I can sense like spices. So I 94 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: ordered some Indian food last night and I got like 95 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: extra hot. I was just like I need to feel something. Um, 96 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: it's like spicy foods. Like I'm but having a lot 97 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: of loaded baked potato soup for like the I guess 98 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: the texture. It's just so funny. I'm realizing like how 99 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: much of what I eat is for pure pleasure and 100 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 1: like not to feel my body. And like the other day, 101 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: I know it. I had like some bree cheese and 102 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, maybe I'll make cheese and crackers. 103 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: And I was like, what's the point, bitch's gonna do 104 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 1: anything for you. It's not gonna taste like anything. So you, like, 105 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: I think the default is to assume that would just 106 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: eat healthy because you can't taste anything. But like the 107 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: like the guy from Ben and Jerry's like the he 108 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: came up with the idea of like putting just chocolate 109 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: and all sorts of like caramel and all that stuff 110 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: into ice cream because he didn't have a sense of taste. 111 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: So it's like there's something yeah he did. Yeah, one 112 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: of either Ben or Jerry does not have a sense 113 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: of taste. And so that's why texture is a bigger Yeah, 114 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: but texture is a big like that. That's why they 115 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: added all that stuff was so that they could get 116 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: some textures. Shout out to either of you. Alright, Veronica, 117 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: let's get to something from your search history. Uh that's 118 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: revealing about who you are, what you're up to. Well, 119 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: I think everything I'm going to have for you is 120 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: probably related to my COVID, But uh, I googled the 121 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: other day. I was like, can you have nikel every 122 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: night for two weeks straight?

It's 204 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 1: a game show that's just a mess and it's full 205 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: of drama. So, like you, like the real dynamics of relationships, 206 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: I don't think are as present like the shows you're 207 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: talking about, the married at first sights in the ninety days, 208 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,359 Speaker 1: because people know how to game the Bachelor slash Bachelorette 209 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: or like they know what the sequence can be when 210 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: you go far in the show. Maybe, yeah, then maybe 211 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: I need to like reframe the way I look at 212 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: it and think a bit more as like a game show, 213 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: because I guess like I am just like so into 214 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: those other like dating shows, and then I feel like 215 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 1: the Bachelor, like it almost like cheapens it because I 216 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: mean they're all fucking fake and scripted. I get that, 217 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: But in the bathroom, like they're not really there for love. 218 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: They just want to be insto famous, right, and then 219 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: you're just like, Okay, who's going to be the best 220 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: at tricking each other? Like that's when I started getting 221 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: the fun out of that. But yeah, married at first 222 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 1: sight is fun. I love ninety day Fiance, but I'm 223 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: also recapp being married at first sight on like on 224 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: days when there isn't ninety day to talk about and 225 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: there is something to watching people who don't know anything 226 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: about each other be like all right, y'all are married, 227 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 1: and that has like more satisfying like reality elements of 228 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: like navigating a relationship. What is the premise there? Why 229 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: why are they being married before the show so they're 230 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: ready for love? Is there like a matchmaking process that 231 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: plays into it? Dr Pepper Swartz Love, Dr Pepper Swortz. Um. Yeah, 232 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: they just basically take these people. They all have the 233 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: same short like, you know, it's all some version of 234 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: you know, I just I can't I can't figure it out, 235 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: So I just I guess I'll just leave it up 236 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: to these experts and try this experiment out. And some 237 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: what's fun about that show is sometimes like they really 238 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: nail it and you're like, oh my god, this is 239 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: a fucking couple and they so just saw it for 240 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: what it was and match these people up. Other times 241 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: you think it's gonna work and you're like this, these 242 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: people were probably both lying when they were like talking 243 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: to the matchmakers. And yeah, because then they come into 244 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: it and reveal all these other things, You're like, oh fuck, no, no, 245 00:12:55,520 --> 00:13:00,040 Speaker 1: that is there, Like so there's a scientific process. This 246 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 1: is it like the what's that dating app that swears 247 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: that like they have harmony or whatever. That's contentious. There's 248 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: two I remember I talk there's it's two.

Know, I'm truly fine. 323 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: It's just yeah, I think I'm on that on the 324 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: downhill as well. I think that I have like five 325 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: more days all right, we'll check back in. Yeah, and 326 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,679 Speaker 1: we are recording this in the same room. So ye, 327 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: A bouquet of dried herbs into your face. Yeah, well, 328 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: let's talk real quickly about the things that Donald Trump 329 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: is trying to get done before he leaves office. Uh. 330 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: You you already mentioned one of the dangers deregulation can pose, 331 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: and that is that a deadly fog will settle over 332 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: the biggest city in the world for four weeks and 333 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: just start suffocating people. But it's one of those things 334 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: where he's like just killing all these things that we 335 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: take for granted, like, for instance, a regulation around how 336 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: fast chicken factories process chickens, like as they're going across 337 00:17:55,800 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: a conveyor belt. They're like, no, we can like that 338 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 1: speed past the limit that we've held the chicken industry 339 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:10,120 Speaker 1: to for years. And people have pointed out that when 340 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: they did a study on how this would affect things, 341 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, like all the dirty tainted chicken 342 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: they used to be cleared out of the supply line 343 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: like was no longer getting cleared out. They were like, huh, 344 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: there's thirty percent less uh, like problematic chicken getting cleared 345 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: to the side. And I'm guessing it's not because the 346 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: chickens suddenly like no longer had salmonilla all over it um. Yeah, 347 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: that's one of the things to just keep in mind 348 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: is that Donald Trump is trying to poison you another 349 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: proposal being pushed through. Uh, And we should stop calling 350 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: it deregulation because that just sounds I don't know that 351 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: they've made it so that that's no longer like as 352 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: evil as it sounds. We should just call it something. 353 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: It's called making it unsafe as fun for people. Just poisoning, 354 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: just active poisoning for profit um only benefits the business owner. Yeah, well, 355 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't you think that like the cost of eventually having 356 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: to I'm assuming recall all of that and pay out 357 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: all those lawsuits from everyone that's going to die from 358 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: this cost them more or do they just not give 359 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: a ship? No, they don't. They actually do those calculations. Yeah. Like, 360 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: there's there's a book I think it's called The Corporation 361 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: that like is about how corporations, you know, because in America, 362 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: corporations can be seen as like legal legally they are people. 363 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: And so it's like, so if these corporations were people, 364 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 1: how like what kind of people would they be? And 365 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: over and over again it's that they are uh, somewhere 366 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: between sociopaths, and psychopaths, because they will do the calculation 367 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: of like, Okay, this is going to kill people, like 368 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 1: if we don't put this safety feature into car, or 369 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,959 Speaker 1: if we uh, you know, don't flag the fact that 370 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 1: the safety feature has stopped working, So it's gonna kill 371 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: three people. But on average, their class action lawsuits are 372 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: going to cost us x amount of money and therefore 373 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna it's still profitable. Yeah, still profitable overall, and 374 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: that's what they care about. Um, but to another planet, 375 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: I know, Yeah, we're another country that doesn't have just uncontrolled, 376 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: unregulated capitalism. Another proposal being pushed through is bringing back 377 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 1: firing squads for federal executions. Uh, they're just like executing 378 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: people on the way out, Like they're pushing through all 379 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 1: these federal executions, uh that we're backlogged to try and 380 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: make sure they kill as many people as they can 381 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: before they leave office. But yeah, you know, capital punishment 382 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 1: already in humane torturis should be banned, but they're like, now, 383 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: let's move it in the opposite direction and take it 384 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: as regressive as we possibly can. Yeah. Oh, I'm surprised 385 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: that they're not doing like hangings and ship What the fuck? Right, yeah, 386 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,239 Speaker 1: because it seems so it's just so clear, right, like 387 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: he's it's clear that the president has accepted that if 388 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,199 Speaker 1: the ship is over right, so now it's like, let me, 389 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 1: let me just burn the fucking thing down as much 390 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: as possible in the way, because that's all it is. 391 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: It's all intentional to be like just so then Biden 392 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: has to step into a burning building and then Trump 393 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: can be like, oh my god, did you see what 394 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: he did? He set the house on fire. Can you 395 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: believe it? Look at all the chicken and bubba. But 396 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: it's like, oh my god, this is It's like it's 397 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: like a fucking script we see constantly. Yeah, I mean, 398 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: and this is all domestic stuff. Well, there's all sorts 399 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: of rumors of what's going to happen, uh internationally, happening 400 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: right now that we're recording this in the past. So 401 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: we don't know if uh there has been an invasion 402 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 1: or an attack on Iran, but that's something that's being 403 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 1: rumored internationally. But back state side, Uh, the e p 404 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: A is on the cusp of cementing rules to lock 405 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: in soot levels for at least five years, despite the 406 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 1: objections of UM something called scientific experts. I'm sorry, what 407 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: can they don't understand? I don't know. It sounds like 408 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: some hogwashed me. But yeah, they're just gonna try and 409 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: make it as difficult as possible to regulate the environment 410 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: at a time when that is the worst thing that 411 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: you could possibly do for the human race. I mean, 412 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: people have talked that there was the therapist who diagnosed 413 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: him as being a sociopath, and you know, one of 414 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: the things she pointed to was that he really seems 415 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: to revel in seeing, like inflicting suffering on people, Like 416 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: that seems to actually be something that drives him. It's 417 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: not this isn't things that are happening by accident. These 418 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 1: are things that are happening because he likes to see 419 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: people suffer. Is that bandy Lee, I'm saying that, yeah exactly. 420 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: I think he probably also gets off on no wing 421 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: that like this is what will be in the history books, 422 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,199 Speaker 1: you know, like he's like, I'll be remembered for all 423 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: of this. He likes. He's fucking crazy. Yeah, in that 424 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: way where it's like he yeah, no matter what infamy 425 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: or you know, love or whatever, it's like it doesn't 426 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: even register the difference. It's like no, my name is 427 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: coming out of people's mouths. I win. Publicity is good publicity, 428 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 1: even if it's going down in history as a monster. 429 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: But then he's so thin skinned, you know this, it's 430 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: such a contradictory, fucked up you know, person, we're at 431 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: the fun We're just waiting, we like, don't funk this 432 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 1: up for the whole earth, because we've somehow allowed like 433 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: one person to you know, if they want to completely 434 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 1: funk up the whole earth, Like if you wanted to 435 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 1: be like fuck it, you know, just just have it 436 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: rain nukes.

It's just really alarming. In case 439 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: there was any doubt that these policies are sprouting directly 440 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: from Trump's brand, The Department of Energy is racing to 441 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: loosen the efficiency standards for showers and washing machines, which 442 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: is like a thing he specifically was saying. That's like 443 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: one of his bits from rallies about do you ever 444 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: get under a shower and no water comes out? And me, 445 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: I want that hair to be so beautiful. That's a 446 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 1: direct quote from his rallies water comes out. I don't 447 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 1: think that's a a Department of Energy efficiency standard. If 448 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: you turn on your shower and no water comes out, 449 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: I think my man just doesn't know how to use 450 00:24:55,480 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: a shower. I mean image or that's a that's a lamp. 451 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 1: Are we gonna hear something about windows? Because I was 452 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: another thing he was loving to talk about in the 453 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 1: during the campaign was about how tiny the windows are 454 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: going to be if if socialism takes over and there 455 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: he's tiny windows, Like are there now? Is there a 456 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: new gigantic standard for windows? He hasn't been able to 457 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: force that one through. Uh damn. He will make it 458 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 1: so that our washing machines and our showers lead to 459 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: higher consumption and waste. So shout out to the Trump administration. 460 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 1: I wonder how that's gonna work, right, because, like I 461 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: get you can do that, but like when you're a 462 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 1: business has been so used to making a product one way, 463 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 1: are they gonna be like, oh, thank god, we can 464 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: start making these like less efficient machines, just specifically in 465 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:53,360 Speaker 1: this washing machine shower instance, Like are they really are 466 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: they dying for this thing to be changed because the 467 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 1: problem that that begins to be like oh great, we 468 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: can now use this cheaper stuff or whatever. I don't know. 469 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: I'm just curious off, you know, because I think people 470 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 1: are going to be clamoring that there show. I don't 471 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: know what the consumer side of it is. I guess 472 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 1: the only thing is that they're probably saying it's cheaper 473 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: for us to make them super wasteful and then we 474 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: can make money in charge the same amount. And Trump 475 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: just needs to tweet, you know, little water pressure will 476 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: make your gay and the damn liberal and then everyone 477 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 1: will be like yeah, yeah.

And ever since they 483 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 1: introduced fleets a week and a half ago, I've been 484 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: actively avoiding paying attention to them. What what how they're 485 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: being implemented. But uh, Miles, you're saying that they're fucked 486 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: misinformation spreas. I mean like, yeah, you know, Twitter is 487 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,360 Speaker 1: already a cess pit when it comes to this kind 488 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: of nonsense. Um, and if you like, you know, interested 489 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 1: cybersecurity people, journalists were tinkering around and they were saying 490 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: like they were able to do ship like you know, 491 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: putting banned U r L s or videos and things 492 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: that are normally, if you put on them on Maine 493 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: or on the timeline on regular Twitter, that ship would 494 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: get fucking just be like flagged, gone whatever, um and so. 495 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: But on fleets they're like, I was able to do 496 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: this ship undisturbed. The ship was up for twenty four hours. 497 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: It's gone, And that's great if that's what your aim is. 498 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: And they're sort of pointing to the fact that if 499 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: your whole thing is about misinformation, these fleets are like 500 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: really really really hard to deal with because normally, you know, 501 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 1: a lot of the people who are doing debunking on Twitter, 502 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: like it's easy to go through someone's tweets, their text 503 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: they're right there, I can, well, I can fucking you know, 504 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: screen grab whatever and debunk it from there. This ship 505 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: it's gone after twenty four hours, so I don't like 506 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: they don't know, people don't know where the conversation is 507 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: at on accounts that are spreading misinformation. And the other 508 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 1: thing is that allows like followers of the account to 509 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: just iterate on top of it and amplify it like 510 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: they would a retweet. Not that that's a feature of it, 511 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: but that behavior is more seen on Twitter than it 512 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 1: is on Instagram. So they're saying, like, bringing this kind 513 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: of thing to the Twitter Twitter sphere is just causing 514 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: It's they see the potential because right now I think 515 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: people are just kind of like tinkering around with it, 516 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 1: but just in the same way that we saw how 517 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: like closed Facebook groups and like i G stories were 518 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: getting people all kinds of hyped up in the Pacific 519 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: Northwest during the uprisings, if you remember, because they were 520 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: like Antiopa is coming to burn our fucking village down, 521 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: and people were like, you know, pulling up with a 522 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: R S and ship because of this you know bullshit 523 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: they heard on Facebook doing like checks checkpoints with where 524 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: they were checking arm uh cars for for Antifa with 525 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: guns like pointed at people. Yeah. And so they're saying, 526 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 1: now with this, you're looking at the same issue coming 527 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: out um but in a different environment where people are 528 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: even more into spreading misinformation as well. And there was 529 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: another uh someone this guy who wrote this book called 530 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: Like War, which is just about how social media has 531 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: been weaponized in politics, like very specifically is what this 532 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: guy's book is about. He was saying that they were 533 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: they had been testing this in March in Brazil, like 534 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 1: on Brazilian Twitter at first, and he was now just 535 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: pointing out about Twitter quote so much of their system 536 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: and actuality relies not on their own AI and content moderators, 537 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: but on fellow users and researchers to flag violators. With fleets, 538 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: researchers won't be able to see and track as much. 539 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: So they're saying, like the fleets could be a new 540 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: you know, playground for all this stuff. Why, like, what 541 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: is the idea behind this because there al already having 542 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 1: to more closely regulate like the ship that people are 543 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: posting on their platform. Why would they think that it's 544 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: a good idea to create a lane where there's less accountability. Well, 545 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: because they're not looking at it like that, you know, 546 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: they're looking at it as like this is a feature 547 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: we need to introduce to get more engagement. You know, 548 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: it's not. It's always after the fact because now you 549 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 1: know there it's you're now just creating it, Like you're saying, 550 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: another lane for people to put extremist content up at 551 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: a rate that's worse than on Twitter, when at least 552 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: that's out in the open. You can search on Twitter 553 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,479 Speaker 1: certain ship and it will bring you the tweets. Fleets 554 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: is completely just like you got to know where to 555 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: go now r And that's and I think that's the 556 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: biggest concern in terms of misinformation. Do you guys have fleets? 557 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: Do you have access to fleets? Everyone? Does? I do? 558 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: That's interesting. I you know, I hadn't even like thought 559 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,479 Speaker 1: about this implication of it. I was just like, oh, 560 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: is this like another place where like gets with photos 561 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: of our tips, like what's going on? And then that 562 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: was I feel like also around when Instagram did that update, 563 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 1: which makes it like total trash now, so I just 564 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: was like, oh, they're trying to compete with Instagram, but 565 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: this is horrifying and makes me not want to use it. Yeah, 566 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 1: it's and I think, who it's a different audience again 567 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: to like Instagram. You know, you can post something personal 568 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: and like people aren't Suddenly people are jumping and be 569 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: like what the funk is that? Twitter is different? Like 570 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,719 Speaker 1: if people come across your fleets or something, It's not 571 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 1: the same audience. As your Instagram or people who don't 572 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: know your account, all kinds of interactions can occur there. 573 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: But yeah, like if I don't see anyone using it 574 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: that interestingly, because it's just I think the conversation started 575 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: off as like, okay, Twitter, nice, try like you're not 576 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: Instagram or fucking snapchat anymore. But that's why now I 577 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: think cybersecurity people like, I know, the first take on 578 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: this was like ha ha ha, but they're like, we 579 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: also really need to keep an eye on this because 580 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, if you've ever played the Supernintendo 581 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: game F Zero, they're like little strips that will launch 582 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: your car even faster. That's like what this does for 583 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: misinformation because it's just like accelerating it. There's no accountability, 584 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: there's no guardrails. So is there even a way to 585 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 1: flag a fleet. I'm sure there is, yeah, probably, yeah, yeah, 586 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 1: But I think in terms of yeah, it's just it's 587 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 1: it's a completely different process, and you know, it's the 588 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,479 Speaker 1: normal journalists and other misinformation sort of debunker people who 589 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 1: are kind of out there getting ahead of stuff. For like, dude, 590 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 1: I don't know how to find people's fleets, like, especially 591 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: if there's these closed groups or people know, like it 592 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: has some weird esoteric handle, but they just checked the fleets, 593 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: like what that what's going on there? So yeah, it's evolving. Well, 594 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 1: whenever they roll that out to everybody, that's going to 595 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: be really dangerous, very worried. Yeah, you wouldn't even notice 596 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: it because it's so even if you opened your app now, 597 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: like I forget use Twitter. I don't even I didn't 598 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: even notice really, like you don't have those circles at 599 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: the top branches like think I do. Yeah, the check 600 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: out her to stop this deal. Oh boy, have you 601 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: guys used it in a way that like you found 602 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: useful or have you used it at all? I can 603 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: I barely use stories usefully. Yeah, I've put up like 604 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: just like when I've tweeted something, I've then put it 605 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 1: to my fleet and really all it's gotten me is 606 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 1: just creepy guys being like can I buy a photo 607 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: of your feet?

I don't know what to say 655 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 1: about this. Y'all um. I had to just talk about 656 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 1: this because there's I can't handle this ship. I was 657 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 1: reading this article in The New Republic just talking about 658 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 1: like the Dems are already like caving like in ways 659 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,320 Speaker 1: that we're not really seeing up front. But they pointed 660 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 1: out that U mon Uraju on CNN, I said, like 661 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 1: talking about like where have they where have they been 662 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: during all of this soft coup, like white collar coup 663 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: ship that's been going on, Like have just been like 664 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: just sitting on their hands, And I could not really 665 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 1: be like firing up opposition outrage as you know, leaders 666 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 1: of the party. This is what Roger said, quote. Democrats 667 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: are trying to avoid turning Trump's refusal to accept the 668 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: election results into a partisan fight, believing Trump will be 669 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 1: in an untenable position if more Republicans joined their calls 670 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: to let the transition officially begin, as the president's legal 671 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 1: case continues to collapse and states begin certifying the election results. Moreover, 672 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: seeking to enforce subpoenas to administration officials who play a 673 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: key role in the transition process could take weeks to 674 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 1: play out if the White House fights them, potentially going 675 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 1: beyond January when Biden will be sworn into office. So 676 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 1: their whole plan was this is like whoa, let's not 677 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 1: like put up too much of a fight. So then 678 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 1: they don't put up too much of a fight, but 679 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 1: we'll let them continue to break everything apart and smash 680 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: it to bits because we don't want to make this 681 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 1: look like a partisan fight. It there couldn't be more 682 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:03,320 Speaker 1: partisan than this. Uh So I'm again, I'm like, wow, 683 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: they've they're underlining the fact that they don't want any 684 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: kind of smoke ever. They just they have We have 685 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 1: one party in this country that is so into their 686 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 1: agenda that they will literally kill Americans to get it done, 687 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,720 Speaker 1: and another party that is so obsessed with appearing nice 688 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 1: that they actually do fuck all. And you're like, what, how, 689 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: what is is this leadership? What is this? What are you? 690 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: Are you and are you in opposition or you're just 691 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 1: being like no, like it'll just be so bad. He'll 692 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: have to do the right thing, and we shouldn't be 693 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,280 Speaker 1: communicating to people outwardly as well that this is something 694 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 1: fucked up and there he's doing active damage to you know, 695 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:45,919 Speaker 1: this entire system. Yet we need Pelosi fure like this 696 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: is so infuriating. Yeah. Yeah, they're just like addicted to 697 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,239 Speaker 1: triangulation and being like, okay, well so they're doing that, 698 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,320 Speaker 1: so we're gonna like be over here like slightly to 699 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 1: left them, and they're gonna mess each other up. They 700 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:08,240 Speaker 1: completely allow the Republicans to dictate the agenda and dictate 701 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 1: like everything. How could it possibly be a bad thing too, 702 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 1: like call attention and to politicize something where they're just 703 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 1: the Republicans are just standing by letting Trump try to 704 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:25,880 Speaker 1: overthrow democracy in the country like that's an unwinnable argument. 705 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,240 Speaker 1: And and well, because they're saying I think the logic 706 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 1: is that if they start coming out being like you 707 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: need to do this, then that gives him Twitter at 708 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 1: Ammo to start being like you see what they're doing, 709 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: You see what's going on. But it's like he's gonna 710 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 1: do that too. He'll find someone to blame no matter what. 711 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 1: So why not be like, yeah, fuck it, I'll take 712 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 1: that fight, and we can have it out right here, 713 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 1: and I'll keep clapping back rather than being like, I 714 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 1: don't know, let the courts do it. And and and 715 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,959 Speaker 1: they can get like the brunt of the attention and 716 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: it's just you don't want the energy of someone who's 717 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 1: supposed to be on your side in the fight for 718 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 1: your life. To have big energy, you need that. You 719 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: need people be like they're like doing fucking pull ups 720 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: on street lights and ship be like what they said, 721 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:13,919 Speaker 1: what get them over here? Like that's what the funk 722 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: you need, because they are they are hell bent on 723 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: doing as much destruction as possible. I think it's fair 724 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: to like fight fire with fire when the stakes are 725 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,799 Speaker 1: this high, you know, and it's like, they don't ever 726 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: do that, and you're like, right, I mean you fire 727 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 1: with fire safety lessons. Yeah, Democrats are gonna turn the 728 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 1: other cheek to the point that their neck is going 729 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 1: to snap off and their head is going to fall off, 730 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: because they're like, just I'll just no, doesn't We'll take that, 731 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: and we'll take that, and we'll take that because at 732 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: least we're not the people doing that. We're just the 733 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,760 Speaker 1: people not standing up for the people who are actually 734 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 1: the victims of this nonsense because they are not. And 735 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,280 Speaker 1: I think it's easier for them to take this strategy 736 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 1: when none of the negative ramifications directly affect them, And 737 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: it's it's just fucking weird to see like over the 738 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,760 Speaker 1: last four years. Truly at this point, this has pointed 739 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 1: out in this New Republic article, activists on Twitter have 740 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 1: basically been outsmarting the Republicans more than these decrepit monkey 741 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: skeletons that we have in Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi. Like, 742 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 1: how are these you know, uh, Twitter accounts who are 743 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: even being like, well, fuck it. If they don't do it, 744 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: why don't we go after people who fund or give 745 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: money to or outfit their events and put pressure on 746 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,879 Speaker 1: them to disengage from them. And they do, and that's 747 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: caused the party problems as well. So it's weird to 748 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 1: see more of this, like the people like people who 749 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 1: are actually out here are doing a better job, you know, 750 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 1: taking on the Republicans and the Democrats are and we 751 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 1: saw that through all these you know, hearings and non 752 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 1: impeachments or i don't know, kid glove nonsense throughout the 753 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: last four years. But and then they act like the 754 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 1: reason that they didn't have more success in the election 755 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 1: was because people wouldn't listen to them and be a moderate. 756 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: And it's so yeah, frustrating. I mean, it's it's there 757 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:03,920 Speaker 1: even if you just look, even though it's not the 758 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 1: same party. Donald Trump had the doing pull ups on 759 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: the street light energy, you know, for better or worse, 760 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: and people saw that They're like, thank god, I just 761 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: need somebody to come in and start fucking swinging. I 762 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 1: don't care what if I get hit either way. I 763 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,880 Speaker 1: just want to see this ship. This this you're seeing that, 764 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: Like as we see these new generation of politicians enter 765 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 1: politics as well, it's the same energy. These are street fighters. 766 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:32,400 Speaker 1: These are people who are fucking have been, you know, 767 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:37,320 Speaker 1: doing Hoddukans on the street against the in an activist capacity, 768 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 1: and they understand, like that's what it takes to like 769 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 1: get people to move them out of the apathy column, 770 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,600 Speaker 1: and then too, the engagement column. Is that you see like, 771 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 1: oh they're active, I'll be active too. If they're passive 772 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: and like, who don't know, we'll probably they're just gonna 773 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 1: make a mess of it themselves. Then that's the that's 774 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 1: that's what you're that's the energy you're giving your base too. 775 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 1: I mean, like, well, the you know, like what, let 776 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,720 Speaker 1: them tear each other apart and we'll just be yeah, alright, 777 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back, 778 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 1: and we're back and uh yeah, So I started thinking 779 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:25,880 Speaker 1: about like contemporary Christian art because of the Sopranos. I 780 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 1: was watching the Sopranos part where Janits is like in 781 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 1: the contemporary Christian music scene, and it was just like 782 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:40,800 Speaker 1: it's so uh, it's just interesting. Like I started thinking 783 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 1: about like how just consistently bad Christian art has been 784 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 1: for like a century. I don't know, it's been a 785 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 1: long time. And it's like it's an easy, like butt 786 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 1: of a joke online to like show the pictures or 787 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 1: the drawings of like jesus Us like carrying people out 788 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,879 Speaker 1: of the Twin Towers on nine eleven or whatever, like 789 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 1: sticking his arm in front of a junkie so that 790 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 1: like he's taking their heroin for the junkie. But like 791 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: I actually think it's it's at the core of like 792 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 1: one of our biggest national problems, like the whole culture war. 793 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: Like I feel like the Protestant like sort of right 794 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 1: wing the fact that they like don't have culture or 795 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 1: like art that we can respect causes like a resentment 796 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,800 Speaker 1: because we're dismissive of their art, and then they resent 797 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 1: uh our art, I think, and resent us, and like 798 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 1: think that there's like a war on their culture. Yeah. Second, 799 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: I think you're acting like we have check out our 800 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 1: daily zeitgeist Christian contemporary art works evangelicals, because we have 801 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 1: sweat no, just like sec their art in general. Like 802 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 1: there I hadn't really done a ton of research into. 803 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 1: Like I grew up around some people like when I 804 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 1: lived in Kentucky who were like part of this uh 805 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 1: more like Baptist Protestant Southern Baptist ethic where you wouldn't 806 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:20,720 Speaker 1: you couldn't listen to secular music. You would just listen 807 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 1: to like uh, there's apparently a chart that they had 808 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 1: in like Christian record stores that was like if you 809 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:36,640 Speaker 1: like Dr Dre, then you'll love d C Talk, Yeah, 810 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,879 Speaker 1: like a way to transition people off of that secular music. Yeah. 811 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 1: And but like there's also you know, uh, what's the 812 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 1: what's that Paul Sheer movie thing? How did this get made? 813 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 1: Like sometimes covers like these Christian movies and like like 814 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 1: they're they're somewhat successful when they come out, like on 815 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 1: a budget of like a small budget, they'll make ten 816 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:03,719 Speaker 1: million dollars or something, but they're always just ridiculous and 817 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:08,279 Speaker 1: like fully reviled. And like so I I started searching this, 818 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:14,240 Speaker 1: like what how does like what is the most dominant 819 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 1: like probably the most dominant culture in America And you know, 820 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:23,360 Speaker 1: like Christians are they're not the majority, but they're probably 821 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:30,879 Speaker 1: the plurality of like the vague white Christianity for sure. 822 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,920 Speaker 1: Jesus and White. Okay, Yeah, there's so so many of 823 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 1: them in America and like as a rule, every piece 824 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: of art that they make is bad. Um, And so like, yeah, 825 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,960 Speaker 1: I was doing research and this is something that they're 826 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 1: writing about, Like I think they're aware of it, like 827 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 1: in these Christian blogs like that. That's what comes up 828 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 1: when you search like why is Christian contemporary art so 829 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 1: consistently bad? And they're like yeah, you know, the their 830 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:08,759 Speaker 1: diagnosis is interesting because they, I think get some of 831 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:13,479 Speaker 1: it right. They talk about like how, um, they got 832 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:17,759 Speaker 1: locked into sort of a weird Al Yankovic occation of 833 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 1: art where they would like take secular art and just 834 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:23,360 Speaker 1: do like the religious version of that. Like it's because 835 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: they've like failed on like the educational front, like just 836 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:32,319 Speaker 1: to encourage really like deep critical thinking, and everything just 837 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 1: goes back to like this very simplistic, normative judgment. Like 838 00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: one of the people was saying that they focus on 839 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 1: having the answer as opposed to like the mystery of life, 840 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 1: which like the mystery and the questions or what drives 841 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 1: art as opposed to like just being like, oh no, 842 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:50,879 Speaker 1: it's a simple yes no answer. But yeah, I don't know. 843 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,759 Speaker 1: I mean, you're an artist, Veronica, what do you think? 844 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 1: What is it about it? I had? I did just 845 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:59,919 Speaker 1: google Christian art and yeah it's not good it all. 846 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:04,399 Speaker 1: It's also like it it's so it's like it's all 847 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: evolving off of the same tree and no one's branching out, 848 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 1: you know, no one's taking a bit of cubism or 849 00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: being like introducing like a bau House aesthetic into their 850 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like because if that's art, 851 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,360 Speaker 1: you're there to express yourself. But like it seems like 852 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:21,839 Speaker 1: they already limit sort of visually what is possible if 853 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: you're doing Christian art. Yeah, it seems like they're just 854 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 1: not encouraged like think outside the box or try new things, 855 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 1: which I feel like to be good at art. You know. Boom, 856 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,840 Speaker 1: that's what it is, right, Like the lack of challenging 857 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 1: your your norms or your beliefs in the process of 858 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:38,879 Speaker 1: making your own art. I mean, that's The other thing, too, 859 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:41,720 Speaker 1: is how dedicated you are as an artist to your work, 860 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: because there are plenty of There are plenty of works 861 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 1: by non religious artists that are Christian themed that are 862 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:53,759 Speaker 1: really good. Like Hendy Wiley is an amazing painter who 863 00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 1: regularly has themes of Christianity like intertwined in his works, 864 00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:59,800 Speaker 1: like whether that's like sort of stained glass pieces or 865 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 1: like doing one for one versions of like older paintings 866 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 1: that were depictions of Christ and just swapping them out 867 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:10,760 Speaker 1: with like African American people that like they still have power, 868 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 1: Like there's a I don't know, like it's just so 869 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 1: funny that they but people who aren't you know, specifically 870 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:20,200 Speaker 1: Christian artists are still able to evoke things about religion 871 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:24,760 Speaker 1: through their art. So why doesn't it len somebody rip off, HINDI, 872 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:26,959 Speaker 1: where are these? You know, like like people plenty people 873 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 1: rip other artists off, just start ripping off fucking good art. 874 00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:32,879 Speaker 1: Like that's growing up as like a movie fan. The 875 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:36,719 Speaker 1: best like times I saw a movie address faith was 876 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 1: like Contact. I love Contact, but like that's that's a 877 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 1: movie by a scientist about like religious face that it's 878 00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:49,719 Speaker 1: not like the you know, Christian churches like doctrine. So like, 879 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,439 Speaker 1: I'm sure it would be like kicked out of the 880 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:56,719 Speaker 1: conversation if like you brought it to uh you know, 881 00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:00,919 Speaker 1: into this Protestant aesthetic. And then like, I you can 882 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 1: count on me that movie like has a priest that 883 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 1: is like just allows for the mystery of like faith 884 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,120 Speaker 1: and like religion and isn't just like yeah, this is 885 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,640 Speaker 1: the answer. And that was like mind blowing because I 886 00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 1: you just never see religion in that context in American art. 887 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,920 Speaker 1: But I think that dude who made that as like 888 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:28,359 Speaker 1: a latched Catholic and like that you just the thing 889 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:30,719 Speaker 1: that they were saying in this podcast I listened to 890 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 1: where it was like all these Protestant like dudes who 891 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,759 Speaker 1: were like they were saying all the things you're saying 892 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:40,399 Speaker 1: that like they have set their sights too low low standards. Uh, 893 00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 1: they're just like all responding to whatever is put before 894 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 1: them and not you know, uh, they're they're focused on 895 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,439 Speaker 1: the message rather than like the aesthetic. But then when 896 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:53,000 Speaker 1: they try to explain or like come up with a solution, 897 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 1: it becomes like we are the bearers of God's image 898 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 1: and Genesis says creation is good, and it's just like 899 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:04,479 Speaker 1: they get short circuited by this like normative judgmental thing. 900 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 1: And I think like thinking going into a piece of 901 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,040 Speaker 1: a work of art thinking that you're going to like 902 00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:14,640 Speaker 1: pass judgment on something is like not, I don't know. 903 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:20,800 Speaker 1: It feels very like reductive and like the opposite of creativity. 904 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 1: I mean, isn't like the best art pieces you look at, 905 00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:27,480 Speaker 1: they they are sort of they have this ability to 906 00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:30,319 Speaker 1: be nebulous and abstract, even if the form on the 907 00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 1: canvas or the image is very specific, that the composition 908 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 1: and whatever the colors just bring something out of you 909 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 1: that you just are like, huh, you know, like that's 910 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,120 Speaker 1: the first step. It's just to be like this is interesting. 911 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,160 Speaker 1: But if it's just a literal Yeah, if there's just 912 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 1: a literal and like representation of this thing of like 913 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 1: Jesus holding a baby whatever you like, Okay, yeah, what sure? 914 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,440 Speaker 1: And there's no like there's no ability to begin questioning 915 00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:58,400 Speaker 1: anything as you look at it, whether not that you 916 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:01,160 Speaker 1: have to question the exist sense of Christ or whether 917 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,799 Speaker 1: they're the Father, the Son of God or whatever. But 918 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: he could even be for yourself of your own there's 919 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 1: just something about it that doesn't allow even for that, 920 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 1: Like there's no introspection. I don't know. I feel like 921 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 1: good art gets your mind going and sort of challenge you, 922 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: challenges you on some level. And that's my personal take 923 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 1: on like what the art the kind of art I 924 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:22,200 Speaker 1: respond to specifically, it's different for other people. But I 925 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 1: think that's the thing that's also missing, because the nature 926 00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:27,800 Speaker 1: of working within a religious framework is to not question 927 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,720 Speaker 1: anything at all, like it's all the answers are given. 928 00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:35,560 Speaker 1: So then we're kind of like, how can you How 929 00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:39,120 Speaker 1: could a Christian artist wrestle with their relationship with Christ 930 00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,479 Speaker 1: in a painting, you know, because then that that would 931 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 1: encourage other Christian people to think of, like, am I 932 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,440 Speaker 1: also wrestling with my relationship whether that's good or bad? 933 00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 1: But like it's can't introduce anything like that. It has 934 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:52,839 Speaker 1: to be like, dude, I don't know if you saw 935 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:54,440 Speaker 1: that dude, Christ was walking with that guy on the 936 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 1: beach full and was carrying him. Okay, that that is 937 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 1: the definitive piece of Christian art of the past, like 938 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 1: the beach but steps, yeah, come on better. One thing 939 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 1: like tying it back to the current cultural moment, uh, 940 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:18,879 Speaker 1: was there's this BBC article about this question and they 941 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:20,879 Speaker 1: were talking about that moment. Do you remember when there 942 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:24,400 Speaker 1: was like Piss Christ that was just a photograph of 943 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 1: like a cup of pists with like a crucifix in it. 944 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:30,399 Speaker 1: But then there was also a painting. Uh, these were 945 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:34,400 Speaker 1: like big modern art pieces. There was a painting of 946 00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:37,439 Speaker 1: the Virgin Mary and that was painted with elephant shit 947 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 1: and the It was like late nineties, early two thousands. 948 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 1: And the person who was like the central like critic 949 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 1: critic of like the ability to show these works of 950 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 1: art was Rudy Giuliani. Like that's he was like because 951 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:58,520 Speaker 1: they were in New York museums. He like took center stage, 952 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 1: was like this is on a acceptable get the funk 953 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:02,600 Speaker 1: out of here. It was like one of the first 954 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 1: times when you started seeing like the cultural conversation around 955 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 1: him be like, wait, what the fund is this guy's deal? 956 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:17,880 Speaker 1: Like um ok, yeah, but it's like he's passing judgment 957 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 1: on He's like this is it's just like that normative 958 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 1: like thinking you get to say what's good and bad 959 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:29,400 Speaker 1: is like the it's like art is deathly allergic to that. 960 00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:33,319 Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, yeah, well, we can't solve all 961 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,440 Speaker 1: your problems for you, Christian art world. Um, I know, 962 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:38,960 Speaker 1: but like I want them to solve our problem for 963 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:41,879 Speaker 1: us and start creating art that is good, that like 964 00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:44,399 Speaker 1: the whole that will cross over so we can all 965 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 1: be like, yeah, no, that's good man, Like good for 966 00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:50,719 Speaker 1: you guys, and great now, like you don't have to 967 00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:53,680 Speaker 1: feel like you have a chip on your shoulder about 968 00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 1: fucking the sopranos or if it's that. I mean, it's 969 00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:00,279 Speaker 1: so many things. But I think just already when you 970 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:04,680 Speaker 1: get caught up in this thing of like I'm the 971 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,800 Speaker 1: operating within a religious environment just because I went to school, 972 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:12,880 Speaker 1: like in things like that, just people, some people are 973 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,879 Speaker 1: just so already kind of cut off from having any 974 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 1: thoughts that would challenge you or you would have growth 975 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,279 Speaker 1: or an evolution in general, I mean we are the 976 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:24,920 Speaker 1: theory of evolution is already taboo to these people. So 977 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:27,319 Speaker 1: the idea that like I'm just thinking of, like how 978 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 1: any person operates from when they're trying to create something 979 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 1: like artistically, you're it's your moments of inspiration typically are 980 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:37,840 Speaker 1: born out of changes in your life or growth or 981 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 1: failure or things, and you're using that to be like, 982 00:55:40,719 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 1: oh wow, I have this energy to express in a 983 00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:45,200 Speaker 1: certain way. If you're kind of one note because you're like, 984 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 1: it's all good. Christ got my back, the devil is bad, 985 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:51,480 Speaker 1: and let's do this year after year. Your art is 986 00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: already having a discussion with something like that in your life. 987 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 1: I don't see much. I already don't. There's not much 988 00:55:57,000 --> 00:56:01,279 Speaker 1: change or you know, evolution, there's no there's nothing influx there. 989 00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 1: It's very constant. Yeah, and you're also sort of operating 990 00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:07,440 Speaker 1: off the geto, like within a certain set of rules, 991 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:10,560 Speaker 1: and like art has no rules, maybe you know, yeah, right, 992 00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:13,759 Speaker 1: you have to be willing to reject those rules to 993 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,280 Speaker 1: make it. Like so I was thinking of like Catholic 994 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 1: example of like good art and like the whole study albums. 995 00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:25,240 Speaker 1: Separation Sunday is like about Catholicism, and it's like very 996 00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:31,840 Speaker 1: like thoroughly about religion, like or with Judaism a simple man? 997 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:36,120 Speaker 1: Or is that a serious man? And like these are 998 00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:40,239 Speaker 1: about religion and they're like also brilliant works of art 999 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:44,480 Speaker 1: that like, you know, you can you can be explicitly 1000 00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:48,760 Speaker 1: about the religion the questions that arise from that religion 1001 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:53,320 Speaker 1: without like being I don't know, so just simple. I 1002 00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 1: want to see lit Christian art too, you know, I 1003 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:57,319 Speaker 1: want to be like you know I want to see 1004 00:56:57,320 --> 00:57:01,239 Speaker 1: lit everything art. Yeah, just a color at us. And 1005 00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 1: I don't mean to be like dismissive, because I'm not 1006 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 1: trying to be dismissive at all. I'm I'm not saying 1007 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 1: you are. I'm I'm only really speaking for myself because 1008 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 1: I sort of felt that I'm the way I'm talking 1009 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 1: about it seems sort of across the board dismissive of 1010 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:16,520 Speaker 1: someone's beliefs or belief system. But yeah, I would. I 1011 00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know what the answer is because 1012 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,440 Speaker 1: I've grown up seeing the same five fucking posters of 1013 00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 1: framed works of art in right threan in Catholic schools, 1014 00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 1: and I'm just like, damn, sh it is so dry, bro, Like, 1015 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,680 Speaker 1: just get that hot air balloon fucking photo up that 1016 00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:33,760 Speaker 1: says like perseverance, Like that ship is hitting harder than 1017 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:36,800 Speaker 1: this taking a long walk on the beach with this dude. 1018 00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:42,000 Speaker 1: That painting of Jesus that is like, you know, blue eyed, uh, 1019 00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 1: light brown haired Jesus. That's I think I think I 1020 00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:49,680 Speaker 1: read somewhere it's the most reproduced piece of art like 1021 00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:52,440 Speaker 1: in the world, in the history of the world. Uh, 1022 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:56,480 Speaker 1: And it's just like some dude like painted it in 1023 00:57:56,680 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: the early twentieth century and it just like happened, not 1024 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 1: any sort of great master's painting. It's just like, yeah, 1025 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:08,560 Speaker 1: that that'll do. I mean if I even think of 1026 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:13,800 Speaker 1: like their Basquiat uh like images of like Christ you 1027 00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,440 Speaker 1: know what I mean, are abstract and freaky, but they 1028 00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:18,520 Speaker 1: do something to you because at least in that one 1029 00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 1: there's something it. It'll bring some kind of feeling of 1030 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:24,240 Speaker 1: like fear or something out of it too, because it's 1031 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 1: not like Smiley, you know, a white guy with blue eyes, 1032 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:29,400 Speaker 1: like he feels a little more all encompassing of what 1033 00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:32,160 Speaker 1: life is rather than just sort of myopically looking at 1034 00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:34,920 Speaker 1: like this very nice, polished quaff hair guy with the 1035 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 1: six pack. Yeah. I don't know, but I do. I 1036 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 1: do demand that Jesus stays ripped because he always has 1037 00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:46,320 Speaker 1: to be hot and look for us. You know. Yeah, 1038 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:49,080 Speaker 1: that might be steff one. Would that be too subversive 1039 00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:51,200 Speaker 1: if a Christeners like I honestly think this is a 1040 00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:54,520 Speaker 1: little bit better for with like love handles and a 1041 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 1: little true because I'm I mean, I would love me, 1042 00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 1: I would I would why to documentary about the genesis 1043 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:04,960 Speaker 1: part of the Sorry for the crossover pun there, but 1044 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:09,920 Speaker 1: of ripped Jesus depictions like who who began that? And 1045 00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:12,480 Speaker 1: like I'm sure was there controversy around that. Did anyone 1046 00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:14,600 Speaker 1: trying to do like maybe a little scrown your Jesus, 1047 00:59:14,680 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 1: Like bro the Savior would be fucking ripped funk out 1048 00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 1: of here and weak? Has anyone ever done to Jesus 1049 00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 1: with like a really big dog, because like I feel 1050 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:30,120 Speaker 1: like there's just always a normal yeah statue of Jesus 1051 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:33,080 Speaker 1: with like a mass because like he's always like naked 1052 00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:37,000 Speaker 1: like mostly, but like they make him ripped. But I 1053 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,960 Speaker 1: feel like this that might be the future of Christ 1054 00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:44,919 Speaker 1: is just like a cross fit Jesus, just a weird, 1055 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:53,840 Speaker 1: floppy Dijesus. All right, And finally let's talk about let's 1056 00:59:53,840 --> 01:00:02,960 Speaker 1: talking about Jared Invlanka uhca uh the new Jared Kushner, 1057 01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:08,040 Speaker 1: Gerard kush Baby. Uh yeah, they're they're fucked on many 1058 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:12,160 Speaker 1: different levels. Uh. They have no power in d C, 1059 01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 1: they have debt. Uh. Gerard's probably gonna they're gonna look 1060 01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:21,320 Speaker 1: at some of the ship he did. Uh ways that 1061 01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:25,280 Speaker 1: he kind of combined his job in the government with 1062 01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 1: his personal finances that probably won't look so good. Vodka's 1063 01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:32,479 Speaker 1: consultation fees. She was getting that. They're like, what what 1064 01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:34,480 Speaker 1: what is this? What's going on here? Who is this? 1065 01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 1: What is this for? Yeah, we got there. I think 1066 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:41,760 Speaker 1: they're headed to New Jersey because nobody do nobody's working 1067 01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:44,760 Speaker 1: with them in New York anymore, like they're they're basically 1068 01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:48,480 Speaker 1: she would have to wear a disguise uh to like 1069 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:52,320 Speaker 1: I think, not that she's completely unwelcome there, but her 1070 01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:55,640 Speaker 1: social circle has evaporated in that sense. And like, like 1071 01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:58,880 Speaker 1: you know, most people will rightfully treat this family like 1072 01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:03,920 Speaker 1: the pariah's that they are. And so yes, because of that, 1073 01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:06,000 Speaker 1: they're like, well fuck that, what are we gonna do? 1074 01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:09,000 Speaker 1: We need to go to ourselves are safe space.

And like almost it looks based on some 1080 01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:27,240 Speaker 1: of these plans in this New York Times article, it 1081 01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:29,640 Speaker 1: sounds like they don't really need to leave much if 1082 01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:32,280 Speaker 1: they're there. So this is from The New York Times 1083 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 1: report says, quote, the new plans before Bedminster Township call 1084 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:37,560 Speaker 1: for an expanded master bedroom.

Like that's when Michael Jackson like created Neverlands, Uh, 1101 01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:52,880 Speaker 1: Elvis created Graceland, like people who their own Yeah, Kanye 1102 01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:57,240 Speaker 1: and Wyoming Disney and Disneyland, like that's when people really 1103 01:02:57,320 --> 01:03:01,920 Speaker 1: go off the deep end.
