Yes, yes, wow. 145 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 2: And so he said that the reason why he wanted 146 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 2: an e bike was because the DMV. Wait, wait, wait, 147 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 2: the DMV was going to take away his driver's license 148 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: because his vision was going.

I'm gonna have at some 268 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: point during recording the show one week, I will real 269 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: sneeze because I went to the allergist. They did the test, everything, 270 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,719 Speaker 1: they left and came back and they were like, oh 271 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: my god, they had to like do triage because my 272 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: whole arm was like swollen. They were like, you're allergic 273 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: to every type of tree pollen. And I was like, 274 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: you didn't want to ease into it. 275 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 4: You didn't do it. 276 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: They do the whole thing. You want to do everything. 277 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I know. 278 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I have to take crazy allergy medications. But anyway, 279 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: speaking of things I'm allergic to, we should talk too, 280 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: we should talk about what the Senate approved legislation to 281 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: fund all of DHS except ICE and CBP. And then 282 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: the House was like, no, they just like shut it 283 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: down really fast. Are we surprised? I wasn't surprised that 284 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: we're still in a shutdown, Like that's not surprising to me. 285 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: There was a flurry of activity where I just imagine 286 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: like papers flying like running. Sen it quickly passed it, 287 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: and then they were just bolted to the airport to 288 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: leave for the week for recess. So they bolted to 289 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: the airport and then sort of like it seems like 290 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: they just left a turd on the door doorstep of 291 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: and lit it on fire. Yeah, they did, like at 292 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: the at the House and the House. 293 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 294 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: And then I mean, I think a lot of what's 295 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: happening in DC right now is people are just doing 296 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: really petty things at our expense as citizens, so that 297 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: they have talking points in the midterm elections. Yeah. So 298 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: they did this, left it with the House knowing they 299 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: probably would never approve it, and then they were the 300 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: House Republicans were like, we don't approve We're not going 301 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: to improve this whatsoever. 302 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 2: So we're in the same situation and it's and travel 303 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 2: is getting worse for people, right. 304 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: I guess it did score some political points for the 305 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: campaign trail for Democrats in the midterms to be able 306 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: to say, look, they didn't pass. They were we're given 307 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: the opportunity to reopen the airports and they didn't, and 308 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: they chose to say they chose not to. And they 309 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: all did have to go on the record. I mean, 310 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: they have a press conference and said like, we are 311 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: absolutely not agreeing to all of this. But I don't know, 312 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: what do you think about it? Because I have very 313 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: specific opinions because it's like ice funding. 314 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 2: And again, I just think that every day something new 315 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 2: happens that tells me that these people don't really care 316 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 2: about what happens to the people in this country, right, 317 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: They're so focused on winning getting their way that there 318 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 2: is no compromise. 319 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: Like for me, it just feels so profoundly selfish. Yeah, 320 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: I think it's like, hey, it's very selfish. It's like, 321 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: every single time we come up against this, it's like 322 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: we are again in a place where the system that 323 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: was set up hundreds of years ago is not serving 324 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: us in modern society. And we have congressmen and men 325 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: and women who are been in Congress forever, or Susan 326 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: Collins who is a Democrat and supposed to be a 327 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,239 Speaker 1: Democrat but then votes every time we try yeah, and 328 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: has like a she literally has a magat with it. 329 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: I was reading today that Republican a record number of 330 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: Republicans are retiring before the midterm elections. ABC reported on this. 331 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: Since nineteen thirty, there's almost one hundred years. There have 332 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: never been this many Republicans retiring before a midterm election. 333 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: Why what do you think that's about. I think they 334 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 1: know they're about to get walloped, they're about to get 335 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 1: dog walked in the midterms, and I think that everyone's 336 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: trying to save face rather than spend all the money 337 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: to lose and then be a big, fat loser. They're like, 338 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,400 Speaker 1: all right, I'm going to wait five years and run 339 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: again in twenty what would it be twenty thirty. Let's 340 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 1: just wait and see it's easier to do that. Go 341 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: on the speaking circuit. I want to write a book. 342 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 2: I wonder if people will remember what they didn't do. 343 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 2: Do you know what I'm saying? Like, do you know 344 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 2: you had the opportunity to put the country back together 345 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 2: again at the very least, you know the airport's running 346 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 2: appropriately again, and instead you decided not to because you're 347 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 2: being petty. And now you realize you're probably not going 348 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 2: to win, so you're going to quit. You're not going 349 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 2: to run again. You're not going to quit, but you're 350 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 2: not going to run again. And now that this sort 351 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 2: of things have settled down, then you're going to go 352 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 2: back and try and run again. 353 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: I will say the one thing, yeah, that people do 354 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,400 Speaker 1: not forget in this country, and it may seem really 355 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,360 Speaker 1: weird to you and me, gas prices. If you had 356 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: some sort of effect on the gas prices as a politician, 357 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:57,479 Speaker 1: they will eat you up. No, crumbs absolutely gobble you up, 358 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:02,439 Speaker 1: miss Piggy. What if it say about no? I mean literally, 359 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: if it's like a quarter, They're like, get him. What 360 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,120 Speaker 1: did it say about though? 361 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 6: That? 362 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 2: Like that's gonna be the thing, Not kids being killed 363 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 2: in school, not gun control. 364 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 1: No, the gas Americans. If you fuck with their gas prices, 365 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: they snap off the nails, they take off the earrings, 366 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: macline on the base, they take the folding chair, laplancha, 367 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: they go, they go luccharto on you if you fuck 368 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: with the gas prices even a little bit. Did you 369 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 1: see that interview with the woman at She was at 370 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: the pump and she was like this like a local 371 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: reporter was interviewing her and they were like, so what 372 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 1: do you think about what Trump is doing in Iran? 373 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: And she tore into this man. If you could say 374 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: something the president's tump, he was gonna hear you right now, 375 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: what would be? You're a worseless tile of this woman. 376 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 1: I think I want to say it was in Philly 377 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: or Pittsburgh. 378 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:04,439 Speaker 3: It was. 379 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: It was definitely one of these cities in America where 380 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: they will beat you to death with a sock filled 381 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: with batteries, you know, like it's one of those towns. 382 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: And so she was like, and I voted for him 383 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: three times and I She's like, and that's my bad. 384 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: Oh I did see her so on me. She's got 385 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: the sunglasses on and she's next to her aunt. Yeah, yeah, 386 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: it's like this woman. But it's true, that is what 387 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 1: I think. We're in a bubble, right, Like we live 388 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: in New York, for sure. Most of the people we 389 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: know are on the coast. Yes, a lot. There are 390 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 1: a lot of people in America who fifty cents at 391 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: the pump is a huge deal. They've got to drive 392 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: to work, they've got to drive to pick the kids up. 393 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: Like people really really care about the gas prices. They do. 394 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 2: They do in American's love cars, right, and they spend 395 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 2: so much time in their cars. And you know, now 396 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 2: the things that let's say you couldn't afford to go on, 397 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 2: like a vacation where everybody gets on a plane and 398 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 2: goes someplace, but you would like drive to your grandmother's 399 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 2: house or take a road trip. And now that is 400 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 2: it's cost prohibitive. 401 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: You can't. They can't do it like they used to. 402 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: And also, like there's something about the inconvenience of transport, 403 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 1: whether it's the subway, the bus, the car, the bike. 404 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: The second it's like remotely interrupted. It is the thing 405 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,479 Speaker 1: we're doing to get to the place. It's like an 406 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 1: It is not joyous. Transportation is never any type planes, whatever. 407 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 1: It's a means to an end. We're trying to get 408 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 1: to a place to do a thing. It's usually to 409 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: make money, because we're all stuck in a capitalist healthscape, right, Like, 410 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: it's never it's very rarely for pleasure. I mean, you're 411 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: going someplace because you have to go. So when that 412 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: shit gets interrupted, are a little bit more expensive, you're like, 413 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: are you fucking now? It's just it adds to it. 414 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: It does my bike. Someone locked my bike to their 415 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: bike accidentally. Oh no, town and soho. I know this 416 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,959 Speaker 1: is different than the plight of working class America spending 417 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: more money at the pump. But I did someone bike. 418 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 1: That's how you get around, and that's how I get 419 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: around everywhere. Yeah, and so all weekend I went. So 420 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: I went to this party on Thursday night and I 421 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: tied up my bike. Have you been visiting your bike? 422 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: Did you get your bike bike? Melissa? I've been visiting it. Yeah, 423 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: and I've been putting flowers at a spare site. Like, Yeah, 424 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: I've had to go back like three or four days 425 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: in a row, because in New York City, your bike 426 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: survives maybe twenty four hours chained ab outside. Then people 427 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: start taking shit off it, so the wheels are gone 428 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: and things just start disappearing. I mean, you should have 429 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: just gotten a bolt cutter. It's a giant. It's it's 430 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: a huge I would need like an actual electric saw 431 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: to get through this lock. Okay. So and so I've 432 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: been going every day. You still don't have it back. 433 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: I've been biking. I finally got it back yesterday, but 434 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: it was four days without my bike, and. 435 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,199 Speaker 2: I was just showed up and it was untethered, like 436 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 2: the person had taken the lock off. 437 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: My lock was still locked, but they went over my 438 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 1: lock and left it there for days. I was like, 439 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: this person has some nerve and they and they don't 440 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: go anywhere, and they don't where are you? Yeah, don't 441 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: you have anything to do? I finally got it back, 442 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: and then I get a text message from the girl 443 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: who sells me my glasses okay at the store. Yeah, 444 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: she sent me a photo of me trying to unbuckle 445 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 1: my bike. So instead of being helpful, she was just 446 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: recording yours. 447 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:46,120 Speaker 7: This You. 448 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: Just like me picking a fucking lock on the size, 449 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 1: sitting on the sidewalk, and so were you crying?

Isn't that right? 604 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 4: Yes, sir. 605 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 1: Thereafter, because they destroyed your property and ate your cake, 606 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: you wrote an album inspired by that experience, right, you 607 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 1: really turned lemon into lemonade actially, right, yes, And so 608 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: could you tell us a little bit more about that, 609 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: tell us about your experience and your court case and 610 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: sort of what happened. 611 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 4: The cops right in my house. 612 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 6: You know, they have authority and power and I don't 613 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:53,959 Speaker 6: have any They took advantage of that authority in power 614 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 6: and they e vandalize the place. And then they were 615 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 6: kind of cheerful and unapologetic about the destruction they left, right. 616 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 6: It kind of brought a little delight to their souls 617 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 6: that they that they destroyed my house. Even though they 618 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 6: didn't find nothing, they kind of got to kick and 619 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 6: destroy and everything. So anyway, I know you need police 620 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 6: in society. I mean, society needs a scarecrow. The bad 621 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 6: man needs to wake up and know that there is 622 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 6: consequences for his bad actions. So even if a police 623 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 6: officer didn't do anything, we need like a society scarecrow. 624 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 4: Sure, police officers at the. 625 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 6: Same time, you know, when people do wrong, they need 626 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 6: to be checked. Yeah, I thought about everything. They didn't 627 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 6: want to help me with the damages, so I make 628 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 6: money wrapping, so I didn't want to spend my because 629 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 6: I got high money paying for police damage. So I 630 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 6: thought I would write an album about the police officers 631 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 6: and let my story about them hey for their damage 632 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 6: that they brought to my house. That was my solution. 633 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 6: I didn't want to go down to the police department 634 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:13,399 Speaker 6: and throw trash cans up against the door and get 635 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 6: arrested in the lawn and get taken in the jail 636 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 6: and get epstein. So I thought the most positive, constructive 637 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 6: thing I could do was to make money off the situation. 638 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 6: I thought about my life, and I thought about how 639 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 6: I sung my way through all my problems. I was 640 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 6: going to clean my room, but then I got hired. 641 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 6: You know, like, that song is not funny. I made 642 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 6: it funny after I put it on a piece of paper. Yeah, 643 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 6: and I let everybody laugh at my heartache and my disappointments. 644 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 6: And it turned funny with strength and time. But it 645 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,879 Speaker 6: wasn't fun at first. But I remember how that song 646 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 6: helped me get through those bad times. So in other words, 647 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,959 Speaker 6: in my life, I have rapped and sung my way 648 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 6: through my problems. So this is like another little thing, 649 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 6: you know. Okay, all right, I'm gonna just make a 650 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 6: little song about these cops. And they got songs out 651 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 6: there like F the Police and I'm Gonna kill it. 652 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 4: Ic got cockyled. I didn't.

Afterman, for people who 748 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: aren't familiar with your case in the trial that they 749 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 1: held in the defamation suit, a defense to defamation is 750 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 1: the truth, right, If you're telling the truth, then you 751 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,800 Speaker 1: cannot sue that person for damages because they're not making 752 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 1: things up about you. Therefore it's not defamation. So what 753 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 1: Aferman had to do as part of his defense was 754 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,680 Speaker 1: he had to call these people who he wrote songs about, 755 00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: and the assertions he made in the songs he then 756 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: had to defend by proving the truth of what he 757 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 1: was saying. So, for example, in the song what is 758 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 1: it lickham Lo Lisa, he had to as part of 759 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 1: his defense, call certain witnesses to attest to the truth 760 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 1: of the lyrics of those songs. So that's what you're 761 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:21,439 Speaker 1: talking about, right, yes, sir, Okay, why do you think 762 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 1: people were so drawn to the Because I think people 763 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: were really drawn to this case and it really took 764 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 1: over headlines, and I honestly think it's because of one 765 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,400 Speaker 1: of these situations, the situation we're in in this country 766 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: where there's so many times where the little person, not 767 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 1: to call you a little person, but the person up 768 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 1: the David and the Goliath, the average person the David 769 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:48,439 Speaker 1: and Goliath does.

No, I love it because it You're right, 1004 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 1: it is like it like it feels like the little 1005 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:05,520 Speaker 1: man finally a fucking win. 1006 00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:07,920 Speaker 2: And you know, and what he was saying, you know, 1007 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 2: not every not every rapper becomes jay Z right, you 1008 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, So like this idea that this 1009 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,439 Speaker 2: rapper who's known form making like jokes, and he said 1010 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:18,400 Speaker 2: that he'd been struggling. 1011 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:21,080 Speaker 1: She was like a one hit wonder, correct, and this 1012 00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:21,879 Speaker 1: you know. 1013 00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:23,960 Speaker 2: It must be a terrible thing, right when the police 1014 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,400 Speaker 2: come barging into your home. It's scary in all the things. 1015 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:32,200 Speaker 2: And he took this terrible situation and look at what 1016 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:35,480 Speaker 2: he's done. He's revitalized his career totally. 1017 00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:39,120 Speaker 1: And I think, like, like he said, they do this 1018 00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,400 Speaker 1: to so many people and we don't hear it. We 1019 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 1: never hear about it and they never get their bills paid. 1020 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:48,239 Speaker 1: Nothing ever happens and there's no accountability. So I think 1021 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 1: this is like one of those rare times in fucking 1022 00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:53,320 Speaker 1: life and society where it feels like the bad guy's 1023 00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:55,759 Speaker 1: got what was coming, especially because. 1024 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 2: We know, like many times, far too many times the 1025 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 2: police have barged into someone's home and the person there 1026 00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:06,439 Speaker 2: gets killed. Right, So thank god this didn't happen to him, 1027 00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:10,120 Speaker 2: and he was able to take a scary, terrible situation 1028 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 2: and like make it really funny. And now he's got 1029 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:15,760 Speaker 2: new followers and he's probably going to go on tour 1030 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:17,200 Speaker 2: and do all this really cool stuff. 1031 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,359 Speaker 1: I really want a big mac, I think I do. 1032 00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:21,640 Speaker 2: I want like some lemon pound cake.

He's still thirteen, 1108 00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 1: is like actually kind of young for that breed, and 1109 00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,040 Speaker 1: he's showing no sign of slowing down. He still goes 1110 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 1: on like four walks a day for like a twenty 1111 00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 1: thirty forty minutes sometimes.

Oh. 1127 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:07,960 Speaker 1: From the Boomer Banks episode, Nicole Phillips says, Melissa Michael 1128 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:10,880 Speaker 1: so perfectly pared as host. That makes every guest feel 1129 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 1: like such a natural fit for them.

We got a 1135 00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 1: clip from CJ. 1136 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:38,440 Speaker 7: I have a quick question regarding actual dual citizenship from 1137 00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:43,560 Speaker 7: the US to Canada. My son's great grandfather was born 1138 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:46,800 Speaker 7: in Canada, and I know that they had voted on 1139 00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:51,680 Speaker 7: Bill C three to allow those descendants to apply, but 1140 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 7: the extension temporary measure expired on March nineteenth. So at 1141 00:58:57,200 --> 00:59:01,440 Speaker 7: this point, does my son have any way to apply 1142 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:07,240 Speaker 7: for Canadian citizenship due to his great grandfather being born there, 1143 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:10,240 Speaker 7: thus being a naturalized Canadian citizen? 1144 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: Thanks so much? Okay, so this is actually I'm really 1145 00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:17,720 Speaker 1: glad this came up because I'm actually doing this. Brad's 1146 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:22,280 Speaker 1: great great grandmother was Canadian, so I was like, Boots, like, 1147 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,760 Speaker 1: let's do it just for fun, like, let's have Canadian 1148 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 1: passports if we want them, why not. So I'm actually 1149 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 1: in the middle of doing this right now. So I'm 1150 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:32,400 Speaker 1: glad glad you called in because I actually know a 1151 00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 1: lot about this. I'm in the middle of it right now. 1152 00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:37,000 Speaker 1: And I think whoever gave you that March nineteenth extension 1153 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 1: deadline might have been wrong, or maybe we're talking about 1154 00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,160 Speaker 1: different things here, But from my understanding, the C three 1155 00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 1: Bill is in full effect right now. We're almost in 1156 00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 1: this ol air in April twenty twenty six, and there 1157 00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:54,920 Speaker 1: is no extension deadline that sort of felt that you 1158 00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:57,840 Speaker 1: are you have since passed, so I think you should 1159 00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:04,880 Speaker 1: still be able to file for citizenship by descendant in Canada. 1160 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 1: You're just going to have to prove that that just 1161 01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:12,160 Speaker 1: that chain of descendant, right, So you're gonna have to 1162 01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:15,360 Speaker 1: get the birth certificate of whatever. I guess it is 1163 01:00:15,400 --> 01:00:19,160 Speaker 1: his great grandfather who is Canadian, So you'll need that 1164 01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 1: birth certificate to prove right that they're indeed related. Okay, Yeah, 1165 01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:25,280 Speaker 1: so that's sort of how that works. And then you 1166 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:30,320 Speaker 1: follow it there. And I called.

You didn't 1172 01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 1: know that Canadians have these extreme accents. She was like hello, 1173 01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:57,400 Speaker 1: and I was like, huh, that is so obscure. Part 1174 01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:00,240 Speaker 1: of Canada? Is this person from?
