13
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,639

17
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: and I think Victor was pointing out there is another

18
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: story too where there's a petition going around in Denmark

19
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: to buy California for one trillion dollars and that has

20
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: two hundred thousand seconds. I'm fine being a part of Denmark.

21
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 1: I've been there, I mean, I like, it can't be

22
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: I have plans to go. The fire kind of mess

23
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: things up, but I do have plans to go to

24
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: uh come now or Copenhagen as some people might know it.

25
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: But anyway, you you literally had specific plans to go

26
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:29,759
Speaker 1: or yeah, I've been before. It's nice. The food is good. Yeah,

27
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: the people's temperament is good. It's you know, it's like anything.

28
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: You know when you go to places that have socialized medicine,

29
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,680
Speaker 1: they're just like there's a few frequencies of anger that

30
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 1: just aren't there because those needs. You know, I think

31
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: most people in travel know this anxiety is not there. Yeah,

32
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: at least that one. It's more so they're like, what

33
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: is this? What is this American doing in my fucking store? Yeah,

34
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: and then I'm like, I'm okay, man, I'm okay, I'm okay.

35
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: I'm just here to buy some Tuborg beer and drink

36
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: it by the river. But anyway, here we are, Andrew

00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: T Okay known as T d Z Damn should have

40
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: been a fucking rapper in the eighties.

41
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, eighties rapping, you know what I mean, Yeah,

42
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 2: just like basic iambic pentameter and that.

43
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you so much. But anyway, let's dive into it.

44
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: This is what's trending. Trump is doing more dumb nonsense again.

45
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,079
Speaker 1: Now he's you know, he he went after paper straws

46
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 1: yesterday and he's like, we'll get we're off that. It's

47
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: all back to plastic I signed. You know, he did

48
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 1: this thing where he holds up an executive order and

49
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 1: feels like he's done something, and now he's off to

50
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: undo the light bulb efficiency standards, the shower head flow

51
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: of restrictions.

52
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 2: The toilet rules.

53
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 1: He's liberating us from the reign of terror that Biden

54
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: hath unleashed on us. For whatever reason. This feels like

55
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: again he's running out of stuff like his I know,

56
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: a lot of these While these executive orders are meant

57
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 1: to completely destabilize certain agencies and all the other things,

58
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 1: it's also it's also performative. So all of America is

59
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: like just you know, uh, in like a state of

60
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: paralysis because of how potent that Trump seems to be.

61
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 1: But now that he's doing executive orders on like straws

62
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,399
Speaker 1: and toilets, I'm like, oh, we lose the steam here,

63
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 1: you learn the limits.

64
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 2: It's also very much the fuck you make me of it.

65
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: It's like, okay, what the fuck?

66
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: Sure, dog, but you can decree this all you want,

67
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: but like right, yeah, okay, yeah, yeah yeah, make it.

68
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: I mean yeah again, this is I think, while like

69
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: other experts like it's scarier if he had cong like

70
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: if these were acts of Congress, but he's circumventing all

71
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: of that, and now it's just gonna end up being

72
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: something like Russia, where it's just like it's just the

73
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: threat of violence that he uses to rule over everything

74
00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: and along with his oligarch buds. So that's happening. An

75
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: eye on that, I guess, or shout out to y'all

76
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: who can now throw up those unrestricted shower heads and

77
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: blast your corpse with wonderful water pressure. I already feel it, man,

78
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: And now I kind of want to know what an

79
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: illegal shower head feels like.

80
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 2: Pre band like a band.

81
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: Shower head is like, like is that gonna blow my

82
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 1: skin off? Because I don't need that.

83
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 2: I yeah, they're there. At no point have I ever

84
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 2: been like I'm being restricted by like physical throughput of

85
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 2: what's available on the market, right right, Like yeah, I

86
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 2: mean this goes back to like just the general shit

87
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 2: of like, well, I mean it's also too like all

88
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 2: of these Biden things he's undoing, we're kind of like,

89
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: you know, corporate technocratic half measures anyway, Yeah, work that good. Also,

90
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 2: so there's a little bit of like that.

91
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: Was also an illusion of potency in office too. It's like, well,

92
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: I know you're talking about qualified immunity and getting rid

93
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 1: of that for cops. We're not doing that, but yeah,

94
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: but yeah, your shower head will be a little bit

95
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: more environmentally friendly.

96
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. So it is like arguing over like kind of

97
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 2: the nothing of it a little bit.

98
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: No, That's why I'm like, but I'm also curious, Like

99
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: I wish there was someone who did a demonstration, is like,

100
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: this is what your showers were like under Biden. Yeah, okay,

101
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: this is what they're like now under the Trump regime.

102
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: And I'd imagine it would be imperceptible, but god, this.

103
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 2: Is yeah, I mean, it's it.

104
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: It does reveal on both sides how little the government

105
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: does to actually improve people's lives, and like, while there

106
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: are certain measures that did do that, not in the

107
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: way that everyone is clamoring for Yeah, yeah, you know,

108
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: because that would upset the status quill.

109
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 2: It is a little also like like how happy does

110
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 2: this stuff really make maga people? Like, I mean, I

111
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 2: guess it could make them happy, but it doesn't like

112
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 2: do anything. Yeah, it's the bigger stuff too.

113
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: I'm just like, like, you know, I think the one

114
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: that is super material is like if they if they

115
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: take away like equal marriage, it will literally not improve

116
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 1: a single maga person's life. Yeah, no, in a way

117
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 1: that I'm like, what, how happy could you really be

118
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 1: about it? That's the problem with your Your main priority

119
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: is just seeing someone else suffer. Yeah, because you actually don't.

120
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 1: There's no room for your life to improve. If you're

121
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: sort of metric for what is good policy is does

122
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: it make little libs cry? Then you're like, okay, dude,

123
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: this I know this ends not well for the people

124
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: who are all in on that sort of Yeah, yeah,

125
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: here we go. Well, let's also check in on who's

126
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: bending the knee this week preemptively, So step one of

127
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 1: resisting fascism is to not preemptively roll over and become

128
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: a subordinate. Just so we're all clear on that. You

129
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 1: you say, no, no, these are norms that I believe me,

130
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: need to preserve and like whatever you want. Clearly our

131
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: media and tech companies have ignored that for their own enrichment.

132
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: We know, we knew that ABC he previously settled with

133
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: Trump before he got into office because they were being

134
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: nice by donating like fifteen million dollars to his future library.

135
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: And now Paramount, the parent company of CBS, is following

136
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: in a similar manner where they may settle an easily

137
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: winnable case that Trump brought against them because they just

138
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: don't want to make Trump mad. And also they're down

139
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: to just curb stomp the freedom of the press, I guess.

140
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: And also they got a little bit of a merger.

141
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: You know that's all right here, Skydance, Paramount. You don't

142
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,119
Speaker 1: want them to fucking call that whole thing off either.

143
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: So guess what we will lick if the boot and

144
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: Google now they've been doing all kinds of shit, fuck shit,

145
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: they're getting rid of diversity. They you know, we're now

146
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: seeing how what Google Maps will look like depending on

147
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: what country you're in. When you zoom in on the

148
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: Gulf of Mexico in the US, it will just say

149
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: straight up Gulf of America. If you're in Mexico, They're

150
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: not fucking with your all sovereignty. That's just saying it's

151
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: the Gulf of Mexican. Go in the rest of the world.

152
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: This is so fucking stupid. If you go to look

153
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: at the Gulf of Mexico, it will say Gulf of

154
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: Mexico parenthetical underneath Gulf of America. So thank you so

155
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: much for that.

156
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: Google.

157
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: You've you've really done it. I mean, here's the thing

158
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: I will just say though, it's like, would you say,

159
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: like resisting fascism or like not like not like compliant advance.

160
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: The thing is, it's like all of these tech companies

161
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: have always been white supremacist. Yes, yes, yes, sometime for people,

162
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 1: just just so we understand how quickly, just how different

163
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 1: the the ideologies are for a profit seeking corporation and

164
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,079
Speaker 1: a human being that respects, you know, wants just agency

165
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: over their life.

166
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 2: But these people ben Nazis. They stay Nazis. It is

167
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 2: what it is.

168
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, So now they're just full on disappearing

169
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: other holidays and events in the calendar in the Google calendars.

170
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: So if this ship celebrates people that aren't white, cis

171
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 1: hit men. Oh we don't need that, so they literally,

172
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: we're in the what is is February eleventh? I said, January. Bro, sorry,

173
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,319
Speaker 1: it's February eleventh. They already it's not Black History Month anymore.

174
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: I know you thought it was, but guess what, that

175
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: shit ain't in there anymore. They've also got rid of

176
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: Women's History Month, Hispanic Heritage Month, Indigenous People's Month, Jewish

177
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 1: Heritage Month, Pride Month, all of that just absent from

178
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: their calendars. And when they were asked like, hey, like

179
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: what the fuck are you doing? Why are you just

180
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: getting rid of all these calendars and acknowledging, you know,

181
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,599
Speaker 1: the diversity that exists within the country, they basically just

182
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: said it's like not really sustainable or scalable to have

183
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: like hundreds of like events that we have to like, look, dude.

184
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 2: Just we don't care.

185
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: That's kind of like sort of like it was such

186
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 1: a half assed answer where it would have just been

187
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 1: easier if they're like, look, dude, we don't give a shit,

188
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: But they try to couch it in scaleable.

189
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 2: I mean, they have to do work to remove those things.

190
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 2: So like like yeah, they're actively you know, being who

191
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 2: they've always wanted to be public and it kind of

192
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 2: you know, I mean, don't use Google if you can

193
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 2: obviously duck duck go.

194
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,079
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, try that shit. Try fucking don't use Chrome.

195
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 1: Just just generally from a usability standpoint, ship this sucks. Sorry,

196
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: I am not sorry. Oh well there goes there goes

197
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: our chrome deal. Anyway, let's also check in with God.

198
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: So the Democrats, I pointed out the previous episode that

199
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: you know when Chuck Schumer and like Al Green like

200
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: lifts his cane in the air and they're like, we're

201
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 1: basically eighty, we're so old. We know what the steaks

202
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 1: are for me in the next five issues. I don't

203
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: know anyway, Well we haven't.

204
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 2: They do know what the stakes are and they're very low.

205
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 2: Yeah for them.

206
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 1: For them, they are insulated, unfortunately, So we have to

207
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: deal with it. So seventy six year old Congressman John Larson,

208
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: a Democrat, I said, Domdicut, a Democrat from Connecticut, a

209
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,199
Speaker 1: Dometicut if you will, was giving you know, a speech

210
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 1: on the House floor talking about you know, social Security

211
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: and why we can't just like fucking throw it into

212
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: the fucking dumpster so we can save some billionaires more money,

213
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: and has like a medical episode mid speech. I'll play

214
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 1: the audio because it's I'm like, it's like, so, I

215
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: don't know, I'm like so sad for just the state

216
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 1: of everything when this is what we're kind of up

217
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: or this is the state of the House right now,

218
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: here's John Larson speaking on the ways and means subcommittee.

219
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: Don't worry, no one on the Republican side in the

220
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: House and Senate, who control both the House and Senate,

221
00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: is going to speak up. M m. Yeah. He's like

222
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: he's like mid Burp and Jon and jeffs oh, and

223
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: he's not He's he's just not saying anything right now.

224
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's not really moving. It's like something like.

225
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: I'll give ahead twenty seconds. He's still not talking for

226
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: no one is helping him, no one is doing anything.

227
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: The people are just social watching him is the basis

228
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 1: for their retirement. Okay, let me jump ahead as well.

229
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 1: An aid put a glass of water next to him.

230
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 1: That's I don't think it's because he has cotton mouth,

231
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: just so you know. And then he's about to get

232
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: hit with just a fucking terrible blow right here.

233
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:54,959
Speaker 2: The gentleman's time as expired.

234
00:12:55,160 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, he apparently had they said it was an

235
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: adverse reaction to a new medication. I take no joy

236
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: in seeing that, not even for any reason.

237
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 2: I mean it's also clearly a lie.

238
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean either way, I can we have we there.

239
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: We really need term limits because not just for the

240
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: fact that like people who are like in their older age,

241
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: we'd like for them to just enjoy their life and

242
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: not have to, you know, pretend that.

243
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,079
Speaker 2: The old God is. Yeah.

244
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 1: We see this constantly in politics, like where people just

245
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 1: cannot let go, and many people are willing to just

246
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: look the other way because the moment they're there, they're

247
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: they're their boss or the most powerful person in the room.

248
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 1: So they're just like, oh, yeah, no, you're good. That

249
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 1: was no, that was solid. You told them, you told them,

250
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 1: yeah this. And then also just the stakes involved with

251
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 1: our our futures, Like I can't like people who are

252
00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 1: at the latter stages of their lives are not looking

253
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: at the future the same way that people who have

254
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 1: fifty years out of them, forty years ago them.

255
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 2: They clearly don't have the capacity to pivot on like

256
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:14,319
Speaker 2: things that like i mean literally ossified into their worldview

257
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 2: in their fucking twenties, which was half a century ago

258
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 2: or more. Yeah, yeah, like yeah, it's just like watching

259
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 2: these people try to navigate this world. It's it's one

260
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 2: of the biggest problems with what we're living through is like, yeah,

261
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 2: we can't do anything about that.

262
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: Right now, we're asking people in their eighties, in their

263
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: late seventies to cross swords with basically like sophisticated AI scammers.

264
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, these people, they are.

265
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: These are the same people who are like wow, this

266
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: is such a beautiful image that this African child put

267
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: together Jesus using only tires and husks of coconut, Like

268
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: that's AI slop. And they are also the same people anyway.

269
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 2: So this is very what you should ask yourself this question,

270
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 2: would I trust my senator with access to my bank account?

271
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 2: And if the answer is patently no, like this one.

272
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 1: Is, would you trust them with your bank account? When

273
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: they get a text message on their phone that says, hey, Linda,

274
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 1: when are we going to play golf next?

275
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 2: Yeah?

276
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 1: And then they get suck I'm not sure you're looking

277
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: for the Please, I'm in terrible help. I need your help.

278
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 1: Please give me something like oh no, anyway, that's what's

279
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: going on there. Let's take a quick break. We'll come

280
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: back to check in on dual lingos fucking wild ass

281
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: marketing right after this and we're back. So dual Lingo

282
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: just posted an announcement and we talk about this a

283
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: lot because if you like, if if you have dual

284
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: Lingo on your phone, like the icon changes over time,

285
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: like the less you like, it's like kind of dynamic,

286
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: like the ship that they do a Lingo icon looks

287
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: like on your on your phone. Anyway, they put an

288
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: announcement up on their Twitter said Duo formally known as

289
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: a dual Lingo owl is dead. And apparently they go

290
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: on to say authorities are currently investigating his cause of

291
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: death and we are cooperating fully.

292
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 2: Tbh.

293
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: He probably died waiting for you to do your lesson,

294
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 1: but what do we know, And then it just says,

295
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: please also include your credit card numbers so we can

296
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 1: automatically sign you up for dual Lingo Max. In his memory.

297
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: People are like, did they get fucking hacked? No, No,

298
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: this is just their unhinged marketing strategy that like they

299
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 1: do all kinds of stuff, like he had a beef

300
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: with Google Translate like most of us do. It was

301
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: really duo Lingo was into Dua lipa. God, that's fucking depressing,

302
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: I mean, wacky marketing lift.

303
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 2: Hopefully at least it doesn't work because it is very

304
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 2: like tech pro humor is just like that level. Look,

305
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 2: I haven't followed up by a story, but I do

306
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 2: think probably this is still true. Fuck Duel Longo. They

307
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 2: use so much AI in setting up their lessons, so

308
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 2: there are tons of errors and they are not using

309
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,959
Speaker 2: like human speaks makes languages to do these. Uh that

310
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 2: makes plans.

311
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,120
Speaker 1: So yeah, that makes sense because I tried to order

312
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 1: some food in Spanish and some dudes put a knife

313
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: to me.

314
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 2: That's right, and if.

315
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 1: Not, I think about it, probably has something to do it. Yeah.

316
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: I don't know why I called him a madi posa,

317
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 1: but that they told me it was a butterfly. So anyway, Yeah,

318
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: those language apps. It's funny too because it's almost like

319
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 1: we've turned our backs on all the ones that like

320
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: we had known worked for the longest time. Remember, like

321
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 1: there were ones that they were like, I'm not that

322
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 1: it's a good advertisement to like the CIA uses this

323
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: to get their agents like fucking ready to subvert any

324
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 1: fucking government anywhere.

325
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 2: But I'm like.

326
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 1: You can't be pulling up with bad, bad language skills

327
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: in the CIA, So hey, it's.

328
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's just they're just they're showing

329
00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 2: that they're a tech company not an educational company, which

330
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 2: right on utterly unsurprising. But yeah, they're tech company shit.

331
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: Tech companies do tech company shit, which eventually leads to

332
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: Nazi shit and then Luigi Mangioni checking in with him.

333
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: So if you remember, there were people like donating to

334
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: his like legal defense, uh, and people were like, oh

335
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 1: my god, wow, okay, I can help Luigi Mangioni fight

336
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: off this this case for allegedly assassinating a healthcare CEO. Now,

337
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 1: go fundme doesn't actually allow fundraisers for quote the legal

338
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:32,639
Speaker 1: defense of financial and violent crimes or whatever, and a

339
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: lot of fundraisers that have popped up were definitely scams.

340
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 1: But there was a campaign on give Send Go that

341
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 1: people were able to donate to, and his lawyer at

342
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 1: the time was just like, yeah, he's we're probably not

343
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: going to be accepting those donations. But things have changed

344
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 1: now and Luigi Mangioni is officially accepting the funds right now.

345
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: The total sits like around three hundred and fifty thousand dollars,

346
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: so you know, this is this this will I'm sure,

347
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 1: just go to his lawyer. But hey, the Luigim MANGIONI said, yeah,

348
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 1: I'll take a dollar so I can fight this case. Yeah,

349
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: it's amazing how it's like, on some level, just the

350
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: chaos of the Trump administration has completely like shot the

351
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 1: momentum and the pun was intended there of like just

352
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 1: sort of like the little bit of class consciousness that

353
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 1: was coming out of the Luigimanngoni thing. It's almost like

354
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 1: by design or something. I don't know. But anyway, that's

355
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: that's where we're at with that. And but I still

356
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,479
Speaker 1: do see a lot of Luigi memes, a lot of memes.

357
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 2: Still I think it's you know, I think the cord

358
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 2: he has struck.

359
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: And it wasn't a minor.

360
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 2: Hopefully continues ringing, and you know, I try to.

361
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: I mean, more people are gonna get fucked over by

362
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 1: all of these cuts to funding and stuff than people realize,

363
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: like how vital some of these programs are. I like,

364
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: you aren't depending on them. Sure you can act like

365
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened, but some of these people,

366
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: it is very much a vital part of their lives.

367
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 1: In some instances it's their entire employment and how they have.

368
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 2: They or their community's employment. Yeah, you know, I'm just

369
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 2: saying sleep on it. But when your life is utterly fucked,

370
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 2: when your family savings, when your family's you know, just

371
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 2: like livelihood is utterly fucked by Elon Musk, Remember that

372
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 2: Elon Musk did this. Yeah, and you know that unrelated

373
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 2: to anything Luigi MANGIONI may have done. But just remember

374
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 2: that Elon Musk did this.

375
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: Right now, he is he is taking our money, that's

376
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 1: actueling it. Yeah, and he's just going to turn it

377
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 1: into I don't know, fucking bitcoin or something based rockets

378
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 1: that blow up.

379
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. The point is and this is unrelated

380
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 2: to Luigi Manjoni. But Elon Musk did this to you

381
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,200
