42
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: there was the first one. I was in the Wisconsin

43
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: Dells and I was having no part of it, and

44
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,519
Speaker 1: apparently my place was fine. And it's shockingly the second one,

45
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 1: I was fine too, as many of my friends got flooded. Yeah. Yeah,

46
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: we just got some extra mosquitoes. So that's wow. I

47
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: didn't even think about that. Yeah. I have a backyard

48
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 1: which is like, you know, basically, I'm it's a like

49
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 1: a mansion in New York. I have a little tiny

50
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: backyard and it's like just full of mosquitoes. Nobody's coming

51
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: over ever again, Yeah we could bite proof suit on

52
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: or something exactly. I hear that. Okay, so we I'm

53
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: super intrigued by the podcast Comedians with Ghost Stories. Are

54
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: you a believer? Do you do you believe in ghosts? Absolutely?

55
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: I think? Do you? I mean, do you guys believe?

56
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: Do you know? I don't know. I'm ghost adjacent. Does

57
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: that mean you have someone close to you that's seen

58
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: a ghost? Yes? Yes, but they they have they also

59
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: have a propensity for bending the truth a lot. So

60
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: it's hard, it's a it's a sore said I have

61
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: to consider, and I'm like, you know, you also kind

62
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: of just you'd like to see things happen certain ways

63
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: about at the time, but I don't know. I mean,

64
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: I'm also being Japanese, a very ghost centric culture, so

65
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: you know, I'm I wouldn't say I'm out here, like

66
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: I wouldn't go somewhere and be like, I'm not afraid

67
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: of anything, because on some level they freaked the funk

68
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: out of me. But have I seen one? No? Okay, Well,

69
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: there have been a hundred and seven billion people that

70
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: have been alive and there's only one like seven and

71
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: a half billion alive today, So like what happened to

72
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: those hundred and seven billion? There's gotta just mathematically, there's

73
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: gotta be a ghost, right, Oh, So this is like,

74
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: this is like how like people interested in like extraterrestrials

75
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: are like, for how vast the universe is, We're we're

76
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: looking at a near impossibility that they're out and out there.

77
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 1: You're saying for the amount of dead motherfucker's that are

78
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: out there, you're saying, there's not one. There's not a

79
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: couple of ghosts, there's not somebody hanging around. Yeah, I mean,

80
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 1: you know, went in doubt, just throw numbers at it.

81
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: The mathematical proof for the ghosts do you have, or

82
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: what's the freakiest story or what's the freakies experience you've

83
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: had through your ghosts encountering. So I I just love

84
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: listening to ghost stories. I have not been you know

85
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: how people say they're like old souls. I'm a new soul.

86
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: I'm here for the first time for sure. I am

87
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: so dumb about everything and I have no instincts um

88
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: And that's why I love other people's ghost stories, you know.

89
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: But I did, like batch record a bunch of ghost

90
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: story podcast a couple of years ago. And then weird

91
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,359
Speaker 1: stuff started happening in my apartment where I live with

92
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 1: my husband, and he was like, we both at different

93
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: times thought the other person got into bed, and the

94
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: other person was in a different room, so we both

95
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: felt somebody get into bed. And then like he's got

96
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: a million hats, and one of his hats was just

97
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: like in the middle of the room on the floor,

98
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 1: and it had been like under a big pile. Anyway,

99
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 1: not that exciting, but we were terrified and saged the apartment.

100
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: We got real drunk. Then we staged. We opened all

101
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: the doors and all the windows, which there are not

102
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: that many of, and we told the ghosts. We invited

103
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: the ghosts to please leave, and then we never had

104
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,559
Speaker 1: a problem after that. Yeah ship, Okay, well then bust

105
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: them up. Bust those ghosts. That is a thick skinned ghost.

106
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: I feel like being invited to leave is pretty It's

107
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: pretty clear what's going on there. They're like the funk

108
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: out here. I mean, I mean, we invite you seriously,

109
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: We're inviting you to leave. Now you're supposed to be

110
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,559
Speaker 1: nice to them, would you r s V P. Yes,

111
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: that you are leaving? And this is where I'm this

112
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: is where we diverge because I'm not here for hand

113
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 1: holding the ghosts. You know, we've been handling them for

114
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: with kid gloves for too long. We need to take

115
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: a hard line with these ghosts and get the funk

116
00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 1: on out of here. Time. Keep not knowing why the

117
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: dishwasher just turned on suddenly. Okay, bragging that is that

118
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: is kind of a flex especially. I meant me in

119
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: New York first one, first time having a dishwasher. So yeah,

120
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk about it just like remember Jack when

121
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: I got the refrigerator that had ice in the door.

122
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. These are the these are

123
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: the steps we take. There's many a moment towards God's love. Yes,

124
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: all right, Emily, we are going to get to know

125
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: you a little bit better in a moment. First, a

126
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: couple of things we're talking about. We're gonna ask the

127
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: question whether Newsome's kind of landslide victory and the not

128
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: getting fired election is a sign of things to come,

129
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: how encouraged people should be. We're gonna talk about the

130
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: FBI completely failing the greatest u S gymnasts of all time.

131
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about the upcoming political prisoner rally that is,

132
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: for some reason, trying to remain a political I don't

133
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: quite understand that. We're gonna talk about the new wave

134
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: for the unvaccinated, ak the pure bloods that is fucking terrifying. Yeah,

135
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: and of course we will promise too and probably not

136
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: get to a story about Grimace. All that plenty more.

137
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: But first, Emily, we like to ask our guests, what

138
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,679
Speaker 1: is something from your search history? Something from my search

139
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: history is so embarrassing, but I have been saying. I've

140
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: been talking about poppers on stage, and I realized I

141
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: didn't know what pappers were. So I was like, I

142
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: need to like know what I'm saying, you know, just

143
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: as like I don't know a courtesy to the audience,

144
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: because I've been talking about Lexi pro as my poppers,

145
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 1: and now I realized that's not even they don't even

146
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: that doesn't make sense because poppers are not little tiny

147
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: pills that you pop like, you know. I didn't know

148
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: how people because I'm a little nerd, you know, I

149
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: don't know people to look up poppers and where to

150
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 1: get them and how to get them and give him

151
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,599
Speaker 1: a try right now I try. Now, I know you

152
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: could get the medical dagga or something. Um. Yeah, I

153
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: thought that's why they were called poppers. And then I

154
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: had a bag full of poppers that the movie is

155
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 1: the other night, and it was great. Yeah, wow, wow wow.

156
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 1: To clarify, because I feel like I only just learned

157
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 1: what poppers are. There's something you like inhale, right, and

158
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: they get high and also losing your muscles, including your

159
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: butt hole. Yeah. Wait, did you have a moment where

160
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 1: someone's like, do you know what poppers? Are I always

161
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: do this? Do you guys? Did you do this? And

162
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: I start talking about something for a while, and then

163
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: I realized I don't know what the hell I'm talking about.

164
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 1: And then I'm like, oh, I should google that for sure.

165
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,199
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know we do. It's called this podcast.

166
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: You are listening to it? He stopped me. Nobody told me, Emily,

167
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? They were just like, let

168
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: her carry on, she will figure it out eventually. Or

169
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 1: did they just think, wait, I'm sorry, how are you

170
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: using it in context? Again? I'm trying to even see

171
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: if someone could lee. So yeah, I was talking about

172
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,959
Speaker 1: like depression on stage about you know, like I'm susing

173
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 1: old depression four times a year. Then and then like

174
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 1: I don't like pro. I'm you know, LEXI pro, I take,

175
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: I do poppers. I call alexipro or something like that, Right,

176
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: I just didn't scratching though, You're like, yeah, interesting relationship

177
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: with her, yeah, or like it's a metaphorical relaxation of

178
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: this thinker. There are so many people who went home

179
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 1: after one of your stand up sets and tried anal

180
00:10:55,440 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: on lexa pro and you knowesting experiences. Oh I hope

181
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: they mean, that's really bad because if you start lexapro,

182
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, this is gross if you're going

183
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: to poop a lot. Didn't even talking about poppers, Emily,

184
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: what is something you think is overrated? Overrated? Autumn seasonal vegetables?

185
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I had a deconstructed burrito with sweet

186
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: potatoes in it the other day and I found it

187
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: extremely offensive. Yeah, I hate that. I feel like they're

188
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: more expensive. They're on menus and you know you're going

189
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: to have to have this do zucchini steak and you're like, no, no,

190
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want any of these vegetables and

191
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: I don't want to pay higher prices for them. Yeah,

192
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 1: this season of mushy ass vegetables right squashed and it fucked.

193
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: Oh stay loud, you know what I mean. Let them

194
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 1: know they can get falked to corn. Emily. H Wait,

195
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: I'm I'm more worried about you said you had a deconstructed,

196
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 1: deconstructed breakfast or burrito. Said it was a deconstructed burrito,

197
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: which means a way of being charged more for a

198
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: burrito bowl is fucking Vine went to hear those words,

199
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: but doing like deconstructed burrito, you fucking colonize every more.

200
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? What is this? Who is this?

201
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: Why is this? It was so miserable. I had no

202
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 1: idea there was going to be sweet potato in it.

203
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: I ate it. I was so sad for the rest. Wait,

204
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: they you're saying it was a burrito bowl rather than

205
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: like a high minded way like if you went to

206
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: some fancy restaurant. They're like, and this bit of corn

207
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 1: represents the tortilla and this, and it's a deconstructed They're

208
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 1: just being like burrito bowl, but we call it deconstructed. Yeah,

209
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 1: basically lazy. Like literally they deconstructed by unwrapping a bristo

210
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: is dumped. It literally was a deconstructed burrito and then

211
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: they threw Yeah, they threw away the shell, the casing.

212
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: It's kind of deconstructed burrito if there's no tortilla representation, right, No,

213
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: unless you're eating it out of a bread bowl or something.

214
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: I mean, we're big. We're big on deconstructed like main

215
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: courses and you know, aside from being the arbiters of

216
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: what should be de extinct. Jack also chimes in on

217
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: these kinds of modern food trends, but usually has everything represented.

218
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 1: My favorite deconstructed meal was the deconstructed pizza as presented

219
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: by Lunchables. That was that was among the best. I agree,

220
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 1: though a vegetable medley of autumn vegetables is usually not

221
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: not good. It's it's usually too slimy and mushy. And

222
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: I am team fox Squash along with I'm just thinking, okay,

223
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 1: so it's Brussels sprouts, carrots, cabbage, pumpkin, although not talking

224
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: to the quable acorn squash, potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, zucchini, zucchini. Right, Yeah,

225
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: it's more the squash family, the and the pumpkin like

226
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: kind of mushy like I like a good you know,

227
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: squash soup or like that. I'm good with it when

228
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: it's like blended up liquefied, but just the consistency does

229
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: always make me feel like I have to just you know,

230
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 1: battle my gag reflex when I'm I'm saying it, I'm

231
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: a fan, you're a squash head. Yeah, I don't mind

232
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: squashed at all, like when it's done like roasted, even

233
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 1: like little cubes like diced up. But I'm not paying

234
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: oh I'm not paying over for it. Still, I still

235
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: know what a squash is worth these days. What is

236
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: something you think is underrated? Emily, Okay, underrated. I don't

237
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: know what's happening out there in California, but I'm gonna

238
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: say underrated lawn sports. Because we all had to. We

239
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: all got to stop right stop being outside all the

240
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: time when we thought COVID was over for one second,

241
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: and I swore that I would never sit on a

242
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: blanket and drink a white claw and talk to my

243
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: friends ever again, because I was so bored of that

244
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 1: I could never do it again. And now we're all

245
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 1: back to the parks, hanging out at parks, and I

246
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: can't do it. And I have discovered all these lawn

247
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: sports and they are a way of escaping myself. And

248
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, why is everyone in Central Park, in Prospect Park,

249
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: in mccaren Park not playing these games? Why are you

250
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: all still sitting on blankets? There's so much you could do.

251
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: There's you got spike ball, you got classics like Botti ball.

252
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: There's a new one called cross net that's so fun,

253
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: and they are just making me, I don't know, be

254
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: happy for like cross net. Cross Net is like four

255
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: four square volleyball, So you don't have to be good

256
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 1: at volleyball to play just mildly athletic. But yeah, so

257
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: it's just teeny tiny and you and you actually get

258
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 1: a good workout and then like you hit a friend

259
00:15:58,040 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: in the head and then you laugh about it and

260
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: you're not just sitting on a blanket drinking white claw,

261
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 1: drinking white cloth. Oh okay, yeah, I'm seeing it now.

262
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: It's great. Yeah, that's really fun spike ball. I like,

263
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: I'll play little spike ball. It's awesome. My my husband's

264
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: in a spike ball league and I had to play

265
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 1: the other day because his partner couldn't play, and uh

266
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: oh boy, got my butt kicked. There's a lot of

267
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: strategy that goes into that, but it's very fun. If

268
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: you see clips of Like whenever I see competitive spike ball,

269
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: I'm like, come on, now, I'm not gonna do all that.

270
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: But also I'm like amazed at just how the game

271
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: has played at that level. For sure, dude, spike ball

272
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: has been around since I think like something early nineties

273
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: and real early nineties vibes, but the guy that invented

274
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: it never patented it. So a guy that's like our

275
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: age was like, wait a second, I've got this. When

276
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: I was a kid, no one ever patented it. Now

277
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: he's like a zillionaire and uh yeah, very smart thing

278
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 1: to do, and he like reads in two thousand seven,

279
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,120
Speaker 1: he like reignited the spike ball trend and is now

280
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:12,000

00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: a thing? I was just in l a in Griffith

304
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: Park and no one was playing lawn games. I pleas

305
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 1: played get off my lawn games, like being very hostile

306
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: to anyone who walks in front of your house. No,

307
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: I mean I have in my friend group like people

308
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 1: will bring out the ladder ball stuff or bring out

309
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 1: like some version, but not all the time. But I

310
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: think it varies from group to group. I'll say that

311
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: like all my local like Angelino friends who we all

312
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: grew up here, we don't. We don't bring out the

313
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: long games. It's the transplants who have parties who bring

314
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: out the long games. Okay, that's where I encounter him.

315
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: That's your nice way of saying, you're you're such a nerd.

316
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 1: I'm only which no, not at all, meaning like I'm

317
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 1: just too cynical, Like I'm like nothing brings you fucking

318
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,199
Speaker 1: long game. And then I'm like, oh right, cool that

319
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 1: I do like big Jengage played most of these games sober,

320
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 1: and now I am I've haven't drank in six years.

321
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 1: I think I might want to try these and see

322
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 1: like what they're like not completely wasted. I think you'd

323
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: love spike ball, Yeah, spike ball seems like I don't

324
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: think I ever played spike ball. Oh you'd love it.

325
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 1: It cannot guarantee that you can start getting strategic on

326
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 1: that ship with how you spike it, and you know,

327
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: it's like it's it's how you spike it. Spike a

328
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: little little tapper, you know what I mean, make them

329
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 1: really dig it out. Who I actually didn't know what

330
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: spike ball was and I saw it on the beach

331
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: at the Jersey Shore and I made a mental note,

332
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 1: I should find out what that is. That looks super fun,

333
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 1: So thank you here were It's pretty easy to set up. Also,

334
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: can jam we got? I know, we got, we gotta

335
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 1: can jam? I feel like we gotta say it before

336
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: we okay, because that's a good one. That's I feel

337
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: like that now that is a new classic. I don't

338
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: know what can jam is? Oh, boy, I mean other

339
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 1: than a Candida, I'm not good at frisbee like disc

340
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 1: space sports, so I've I get a little frustrated when

341
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 1: I play, but it's it's it's fun. Mm hmm. So

342
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,640
Speaker 1: you're oh, okay, okay, you gotta get a frisbee into

343
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: a can and I have a friend to help you.

344
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 1: The sign of a good uh long sport is you

345
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: look at a picture of it and you immediately get

346
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: it and immediately under damn, why would be fun? And

347
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 1: can jam gets crossed? Win wins that battle. For me,

348
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: it's all about alien a frisbee jack. Yeah, exactly. You

349
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: know that's fun, that's so fun. Alright, let's take a

350
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: quick break. I'm gonna go try all those sports and

351
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: we'll be right back. And we're back and as promised,

352
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: I guess, as advertised by Larry Elder, the Republican front

353
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: runner himself, Gavin Newsome just smoked the competition when it

354
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 1: came to the recall the exit polling was I don't

355
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: know that. There's a handful of articles now that the

356
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 1: like exit polling and all that stuff is in that suggests, well,

357
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,199
Speaker 1: this is the this is what the Democrats are going

358
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 1: to do. In the mid terms and like the Republicans

359
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:11,239
Speaker 1: are fucked. I don't know. I found a vaguely reassuring that, like,

360
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 1: so one of the big ways that they got the

361
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: one point five million signatures to like do the recall

362
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 1: in the first place was by like getting people who

363
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 1: are riled up about the vaccine mandates, but the vaccine

364
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: mandates were actually a winner, freag Gavin Newsom. Yeah, I

365
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: don't know if that was like the a change of

366
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,919
Speaker 1: direction for the population of California, or if it was

367
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: just that, like it was allowed minority of the population

368
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 1: that was like really driving the recall, but not enough

369
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 1: of them to actually win an election. No, I mean

370
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: people they turned out for bigger numbers to basically vote

371
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: against relaxing COVID restrictions than they didn't even vote for Newsome,

372
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:02,680
Speaker 1: like when he was first running as governor. And I mean, yeah,

373
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 1: the we talked about how sort of the strategy with

374
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: Newsom was merely just gesturing to the other candidates and

375
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:14,479
Speaker 1: saying or them, I don't know, up to you, this

376
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 1: guy says a lot of stuff that isn't true. But

377
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? It's it's hard to say,

378
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: like how how much this will be deployed and how

379
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: effective it is. Clearly in places like California, like it's

380
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: very clear where most of the people who live here

381
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 1: how they feel about ending the pandemic and how we

382
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 1: get there. I'm curious to see how it works in

383
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 1: other places. I mean, granted, this is sort of part

384
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 1: of Biden's overall scheme or plan that where he's mandated vaccines.

385
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,159
Speaker 1: The GOP got real mad, but when you look at

386
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: the polling, a majority of people aren't aren't upset by it. Yeah,

387
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: So it's like I get it, like this definitely if

388
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: as a binary in a in a lection, we're saying,

389
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 1: do you want to keep us safe or do you

390
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 1: want someone who saying we're going to take the breaks

391
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: off and fucking rewind to in that In that instance,

392
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: it's very clear. But I think it all depends on

393
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 1: how important the vaccine is depending on the voter, or

394
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 1: the pandemic is depending on the geography too, right, I mean, yes,

395
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 1: Trump carried a surprising percentage and sheer volume of the

396
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:26,360
Speaker 1: votes in the election that I think horrified everybody. I also,

397
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: I don't know that it seems like I'm what I

398
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 1: am wondering if the anti vax or stuff and the

399
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 1: January six insurrection, I mean, those are not popular things,

400
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: like people are not like on board with that. So

401
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: the fact that those are kind of the biggest things

402
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: that have happened and been associated with the Republican Party

403
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: since that election, maybe maybe that will hurt them. I

404
00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 1: mean it's I am slightly more hopeful than I was

405
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: yesterday that that will hurt them and that people are like, yeah, no,

406
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 1: that is we saw those you know, school committee PTA

407
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 1: meetings and they were terrified. You know. Yeah. I just think,

408
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 1: you know, uh, the strategy of saying, well, what about

409
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 1: this guy doesn't make me that confident like in the

410
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,679
Speaker 1: person running, you know, And I get that as a

411
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 1: strategy that works, but you I'd also hope to see

412
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: the kinds of candidates are a way of campaigning where

413
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: you're actually trying I don't know, I mean, I don't

414
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: even know why I'm saying this, because they campaign on

415
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: so much ship that they don't deliver, but actually trying

416
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 1: to create results to motivate people, like how about you

417
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 1: actually deliver safe abortion access or you know, the safeguards

418
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 1: against voter suppression, changing child care and things like that,

419
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 1: like do that and gesture to that, because if you

420
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 1: just it allows them to be even fucking lazier and

421
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: not have to move anything forward and just say, well

422
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 1: you can okay, what do you want this guy? Right? Okay,

423
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 1: and then there's no there's no action. Yeah, but you know, people,

424
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: it's it's everyone is already writing their articles. This is

425
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: this is where it's gonna go. Do you think it

426
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 1: got to this point with Newsom because just because it didn't, like,

427
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 1: because the pandemic didn't end. I mean, it's just so

428
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 1: weird to me. I mean obviously no, no no, no, there's

429
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,439
Speaker 1: a lot of Republicans in California. But it's just so

430
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 1: weird to me as a New Yorker for us to

431
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: like have gone through all of this with Cuomo and

432
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 1: for it to mostly work. Like New York City is

433
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,360
Speaker 1: a very safe place to be considering everything right now,

434
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: and now we all hate Cuomo, but like for different reasons.

435
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 1: But like if I mean, I don't know, if his strict,

436
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: stricter ideas and like mandates had worked, this wouldn't have happened, right,

437
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 1: It's yeah, I'm well, the difference is like to get

438
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: a recall in California is really what it boils down to.

439
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 1: You just need a million and a half signatures or

440
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 1: I think it's like roughly eight percent of the electorate,

441
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: and then you can trigger a recall, in which case

442
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 1: if the if the incumbent doesn't reach any fucking sloppy

443
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:19,639
Speaker 1: candidate who just has a plurality after that can instantly

444
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 1: be the governor. So it's a very like indirect or

445
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: direct way to sort of like short circuit the system

446
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,199
Speaker 1: in California to try and yeah exactly, to try and

447
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 1: funk around and chain something by just playing very small

448
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 1: margins to try and get what they want. And I

449
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 1: think a lot of it is also this was a

450
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 1: way for many Republicans who, you know, especially after Biden

451
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: was elected, who were like, I can't believe I live

452
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: in Camifornia. Look at what they're doing. Like this gave

453
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: them somebody to really get behind and be motivated against.

454
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: But even then it wasn't reaching outside of you know,

455
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: that typical group of people to you know, deliver over

456
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,920
Speaker 1: fifty you know, of the vote. But it did sort

457
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:06,400
Speaker 1: of bond like far right and then like that sort

458
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: of I don't know, I just like to eat grass

459
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,719
Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna you know, like it's weird how

460
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: it becomes circular and like yeah, like it's it's not

461
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 1: a line, it's not a straight political line. It like

462
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 1: turns into a circle. And like these like hippies are

463
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 1: like hanging out with these like hard and I'm like, wait, wait,

464
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: where how do you guys become friends all of those

465
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 1: like anti lockdown, anti vaccine rallies I've seen in California

466
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 1: or like New York. I'm always like pausing the frame

467
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: and I'm going like, wow, are all of these people

468
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: standing shouldered shoulder right now? I'm like, I guess one

469
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: thing is more important than everything else they talk about.

470
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about the FBI continuing to just

471
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: funk everything up and be terrible at their job. Smone Biles,

472
00:28:54,600 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 1: Mikayla Moroney, Maggie Nichols, and Ali Riceman testify in front

473
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: of the Senate Judiciary Committee to give their account of

474
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: how just awful the FBI's investigation into Larry Nasser was.

475
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 1: And it's really I mean, there was a report over

476
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: the summer that kind of highlighted a bunch of this stuff,

477
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: but it was really necessary and like brave of them

478
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: to actually put themselves out there, because I think it

479
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 1: highlighted it for a lot of people who probably didn't

480
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 1: read the whole report, just how completely the FBI had

481
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: fucking bungled this thing. Yeah, I mean, at first it

482
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 1: was just sort of like they did a terrible job,

483
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 1: and I saw some of the headlines, but again, their

484
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 1: testimony today was so if you even if you didn't

485
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: read it, just to hear people who are describing their

486
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 1: pain and trauma and just trying to pursue like some

487
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 1: kind of legal just like justice for what it occurred

488
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: to them. And then the lack of action from the

489
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: FBI was like really everybody like it seemed that was

490
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: in the Senate Chamber for that was just like just

491
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:02,959
Speaker 1: kind of felt, you know. MICHAELA. Moroney has talked about

492
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: how she spoke with an FBI agent about her experience

493
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 1: and was like just so distraught through the whole thing,

494
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: and then like at the end of the conversation the

495
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 1: agent was like, so that's it, and she was like,

496
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: I just described really vivid abuse to you, and I'm

497
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: like very emotional about it. And then on top of that,

498
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 1: the agent didn't follow up properly, follow up based on

499
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 1: that interview and then drafted like a summary of the

500
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: interview that had just things she didn't say in it

501
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: at all, like falsified this report. Well, he didn't even

502
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 1: draft it until basically years later at least Cat got

503
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 1: caught ignoring the ship out of this and then he

504
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, so here's my report on that interview.

505
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 1: And he was doing doing it after the fact, basically

506
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: making shut up. Yeah, and throughout this, you know, the

507
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 1: o i G. The Office of Inspector General report talks

508
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 1: about many other things too. Just how even despite that

509
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: Larry Nasser was free and was able to continue his

510
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: just abusive behavior even though they were they spoke to

511
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: many people who are just ringing this alarm, and yet

512
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: they did nothing. They even said that they were like

513
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: there was an agent who led the Indianapolis Field Office

514
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 1: lied to the Justice Department Inspector General it quote in

515
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: an effort to minimize or excuse his errors. So you know,

516
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 1: this is just like a very very sad, you know,

517
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 1: sadly very normal case where people are trying to seek

518
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: justice in when as it relates to like allegations of

519
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: sexual abuse, and law enforcement is just like unable to

520
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 1: do it or in this instance, just completely does nothing

521
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: at all to remedy the situation. And you know, all

522
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 1: the athletes that were there, they said, look like the

523
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: FBI failed. Also, Safe Sport is a total failure. Like

524
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: this organization that is supposed to investigate these kinds of

525
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: allegations couldn't protect us either. And when I, you know,

526
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,320
Speaker 1: raised an issue, a lawyer for the Wes Gymnastics Association

527
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: like followed up with me. That was the first call

528
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: I got was from a lawyer, and they're just saying

529
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 1: the way everything is set up is completely antithetical to

530
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 1: any idea that it's going to protect people who have

531
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 1: allegations or need to be protected from abusive coaches and

532
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 1: you know organizations in general. It's very yeah, very FBI

533
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: kind of moment, especially when you see like how the

534
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: d o J is not going to prosecute the agents

535
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: when we've seen time and again that people go to

536
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: prison for lying to the FBI or lying to law

537
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: enforcement or making false statements. These people did that, and

538
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice is stance is like, we're not

539
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: going to be pursuing that, right, It's not it doesn't

540
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: count of lying to themselves. Right, But so what's different here,

541
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: you know, and like that's where again we just look

542
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: at this fucking very inconsistent application of the law and

543
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: in this case, this is this is it seems like

544
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: such an egregious transgression and error, not even error, but

545
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 1: just action from these agents that to do nothing about

546
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 1: it is I think shows again how we will continue

547
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: to fail people like this if we're not going to

548
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 1: take things seriously enough to you know, reprimand people who

549
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 1: are involved with you know, obscuring the facts. Yeah, it's

550
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 1: super frustrating. Basically every thing you read about the FBI

551
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 1: is a complete nightmare. It's a it's a complete just

552
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: farce and has been since they were surveilling Martin Luther

553
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 1: King Jr. And telling him to kill himself. It's it's

554
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: a shitty organization that probably shouldn't exist. I'm curious to

555
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: see what comes of this. You know, a lot of

556
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: the senators said good things after they made their statements, saying,

557
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 1: you know, like we get that you're not here for

558
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you're here for action, You're here for justice,

559
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 1: and we will we will hopefully get answers from you know,

560
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: Chris Ray and other people at the FBI, But I

561
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: I you'd hope that there is some on some level,

562
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,720
Speaker 1: you know, when you're looking at especially when other athletes

563
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 1: are raising the question at what other levels is happening?

564
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,240
Speaker 1: Not just at the most elite level, like you can't

565
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,399
Speaker 1: this this, we can't just treat this thing as something

566
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: in a vacuum. But then it was just sort of

567
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 1: disheartening too. And you have like Chuck grass Lee and

568
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 1: like Dick Durban or just like these older guys like

569
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,359
Speaker 1: kind of listening to things like oh yeah, you could

570
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: just tell that they weren't really equipped to respond to

571
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 1: those statements a lot of like a few of the

572
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 1: other senators were. But on some level, there's like this

573
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 1: old guy kind of dealing with a like toxic elements

574
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 1: of patriarchy or just sort of like I didn't know

575
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 1: what to say. That's too bad, Oh that doesn't and

576
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: that's too bad for that those poor girls. Okay, well

577
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 1: what do we have? It felt like that. I'm just

578
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,800
Speaker 1: sort of like, thank you so much. Oh that's that's awful.

579
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 1: I have a question, did they Would it have been

580
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 1: better if a female FBI agent asked you that? And

581
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 1: people like oh Jesus Christ, I just think, it's it's

582
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: it's it's insane that we're also like asking some of

583
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 1: these women, like someone Biles, to keep competing while they

584
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 1: have to con insistently relive this trauma um. And then

585
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: we're like, as an American public, furious at her for

586
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 1: not going finishing the Olympics. Like she's got enough on

587
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: her plate right now, you know what I mean, Like

588
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 1: she's doing more important work arguably, Yeah, I think, yeah,

589
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 1: And I think And she even said too, you know,

590
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,720
Speaker 1: when she was giving her statement, she's like, you couldn't

591
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 1: even believe what it's like. Where we tell the FBI

592
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 1: things for years ago, it continues we hear other other

593
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 1: teammates say that now they've been abused, even though we

594
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,279
Speaker 1: tried to speak up to end it and then to

595
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 1: like go back into the context of like competing for

596
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 1: the US and going to the Olympics, and like Simone,

597
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 1: but I was saying, like, I'm it's difficult for me,

598
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 1: like what I've been through and to not have the

599
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: support of my family as I normally would going to

600
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 1: an Olympics just I just couldn't do it. And you know,

601
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,319
Speaker 1: she was saying, like we the people up there need

602
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,840
Speaker 1: to ask themselves, like what is a little girl worth?

603
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: You know, because if the abuse stands like, we're sending

604
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 1: a message that it's not much at all. Yeah, I

605
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,280
Speaker 1: think everyone that's yelling at Simone Vials on Twitter should

606
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: have to record themselves trying to do a KRT wheel

607
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 1: And that's what I want to say. I mean I

608
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,319
Speaker 1: would do so. Yeah, I'm curious to see because like

609
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,799
Speaker 1: I felt like with some of the Republicans, I know

610
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people, especially Republican politicians, were had some

611
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 1: real fucking lame attacks on Simone Vials for not competing

612
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 1: in the Olympics, And I like part of me when

613
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 1: I was watching, like how many of these senators were

614
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 1: like made any comments? But I was like, it's hard

615
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: to know at this point. Right, all right, let's talk

616
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 1: about an event that I'm sure all three of us

617
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: will be attending, uh, the upcoming September eighteenth rally, uh

618
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 1: that scheduled to happen in d C. Where people will

619
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 1: come together to you know, rally around what they're calling

620
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 1: the political prisoners, the people who attacked the capital on

621
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: January six, and we're you know, chanting to kill, kill

622
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 1: the vice president, hang the vice president, they are have

623
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: been given light slaps on the wrist, and that is

624
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,839
Speaker 1: a position that they, you know, the people who are

625
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 1: rallying think is on par with Nelson Mandela and the

626
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 1: Archetid state. They're all Nelson Mandela's free. The Nelson Mandela's

627
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 1: of January six, I think is the merch that they've

628
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: made Um because there's there's just such political prisoners. They're

629
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:55,320
Speaker 1: not people who booked the lawn. We're just in facing

630
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,319
Speaker 1: you know what happens when you do that. But Matt

631
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 1: Branyard is this former Trum campaign operative and it is

632
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 1: like currently the one sort of trying to organize this

633
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 1: September eighteenth rally, and it's this weird He tweeted this

634
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: weird thing out where like a lot of people were like,

635
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,799
Speaker 1: what does he what does he mean by this? Matt

636
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: bran Yeah, he tweeted quote, we recrectly request that anybody

637
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: attending our events not wear any clothing or have signs

638
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: supportive of either President Trump or Biden. Anyone not honoring

639
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,839
Speaker 1: this request will be assumed to be an infiltrator, and

640
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: we will take your picture, find out who you are,

641
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:37,400
Speaker 1: and make you famous. This event is about hashtag justice

642
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 1: for J six and not the election or any candidate. No,

643
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: I mean I get it in a very broad sense,

644
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,839
Speaker 1: which is remember they tried to say that these people

645
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: were Antifa and BLM infiltrators, that's who was doing the violence.

646
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,880
Speaker 1: And because everyone was emblazoned with Trump ship, it was

647
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: just so hard for that to people Like, what are

648
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: you talking like, and all of these people's, all of

649
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,319
Speaker 1: their communications, any research you're doing to these people, You're like,

650
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: it's clear to anyone they're not actors. Their their Trump

651
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,600
Speaker 1: supporters who showed up to do this. Yeah, Unfortunately for y'all,

652
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 1: they have social media accounts that are like they give

653
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 1: us a beat by beat like accounting of how they

654
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 1: were radicalized, when they were radicalized. So yeah, it's complete

655
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 1: nutter bullshit. I don't like It's it almost seems like

656
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 1: they're trying to claim that as their own, like that

657
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 1: they will track people down, and I don't know, it's

658
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 1: a it's a very like, well, we'll do the thing

659
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 1: that you did to us to ourselves, if you like.

660
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 1: I'm very confused by this unless he is doing this

661
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:56,160
Speaker 1: on behalf of the Trump camp, because the Trump camp

662
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: doesn't want to be associated with this because he is

663
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: planning around but just like zoom out right, if it's like,

664
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 1: if they're saying this is just about justice for the

665
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 1: j six or for January six? What was January six

666
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:13,360
Speaker 1: about the fact that you didn't accept the election results

667
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,279
Speaker 1: and you went to overturn them. So how could this

668
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 1: not be about that? It's yeah, it's utterly confusing. It

669
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:23,959
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense. I'm just trying to even figure

670
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 1: out what they think. They think. It's just they feel

671
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:32,439
Speaker 1: that it will be optically better for them if when

672
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: this rally happens, they don't have pictures of people wearing

673
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,879
Speaker 1: all of their political allegiances on them, so then they

674
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: can misrepresent what was happening there. Got it hilarious that

675
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: he said Biden shirts, come on, you know justice, it

676
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: appeals to all you know, not left or right. But yeah,

677
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,439
Speaker 1: that's what I'm also curious about. Like, I mean, maybe

678
00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 1: they'll be counter protesters, probably, but I don't understand. Sure,

679
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: don't wear the shirts and then you can lie more

680
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: about what happened. But I also have a very hard

681
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 1: time thinking that someone who's motivated enough to go to

682
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 1: d C again too, like protest, this has any other

683
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: clothes to wear at this point except for Trump clothing, right, yeah, right, exactly,

684
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: So we'll we'll see. But I mean, as of now,

685
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: I think the Homeland Security they suspect about seven hundred

686
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:29,800
Speaker 1: people will be there. That's their estimate. It could be more.

687
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: But they're like, but a lot of the same right

688
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 1: wing actors will be there and not actors and that

689
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 1: they're faking but participants. Yeah, crisis actors. We get it, Miles,

690
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 1: we know what you're saying. Hired by Soros, we know,

691
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,479
Speaker 1: we got it. All right, let's take a quick break

692
00:41:46,480 --> 00:42:00,080
Speaker 1: and we'll be right back. And we're back. And the

693
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 1: anti vax team anti vax is having a identity crisis

694
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 1: slash pr shift, you know, a pivot there, pivoting. Well, yeah,

695
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 1: I think there's too many headlines where it's like anti

696
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 1: vax personality passes away like this. There's like a recently

697
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 1: a prominent guy in Colorado just passed away who like

698
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 1: called himself like doctor anti vax or something. He recently

699
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: passed away from COVID. And yeah, they're just in a

700
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:31,919
Speaker 1: constant identity crisis because they're they're not sheep. Okay, they're

701
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 1: free people. We're not we're unafraid. We're people that do

702
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: our own research. But they definitely don't seem to like

703
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,879
Speaker 1: the label anti vax or. In some way. You're starting

704
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: to see more content where people are trying to like

705
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: reclaim it to be something more than an accurate description

706
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 1: of their beliefs, and which leads a lot of people

707
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: to be angry because of the preventable death that is

708
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,799
Speaker 1: occurring as a result of people refusing to get vaccinated.

709
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 1: But yeah, they've got a new angle, they've got a

710
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 1: new attitude, I guess, is what you'd say. And I

711
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 1: just want to share that with all of that with

712
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,360
Speaker 1: everyone here. This is kind of the new way that

713
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: they're doing and they're doing it very dramatically. I'm just

714
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,760
Speaker 1: sitting here and I'm thinking, from now on, I refuse

715
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 1: to be referred to as unvaccinated. I want everyone to

716
00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: now call me pure blood, a pure blood, call me

717
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 1: a pure blood. Um okay, oh yeah, I'm sorry. Like

718
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 1: feels very much. You bet in fast food one time

719
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 1: in your life, you're not a pure blood. Like, there

720
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 1: is no like. I'm like, if you've had mayonnaise, you're

721
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:46,319
Speaker 1: not a pure blood. Like. I can't don't tell them

722
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 1: that I'll be known as a mayonnaise blood blood against

723
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 1: the world. But yeah, this, I mean, that's just not

724
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: weird at all. This identify as a pure blood. And look,

725
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 1: whether you're more Hogwarts or Himmler, I guess it all

726
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 1: depends on how you want to use that terminology to

727
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:11,760
Speaker 1: describe yourself. Yeah, I mean, yeah, associating with pure blood.

728
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:15,480
Speaker 1: And then there there's like one anti vaxer said in

729
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,319
Speaker 1: like five ten years maybe less, all the people who

730
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 1: are unvaccinated, we're gonna be hunted. It's gonna be like

731
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:25,240
Speaker 1: resident evil. We're going to be the antidote because everyone

732
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 1: else is fucked and we're going to be the only

733
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:31,920
Speaker 1: ones with pure blood, which really is you know, when

734
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 1: you're combining like this is an existential threat based on

735
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: the purity of our blood, that's genocide. Ship, That's like

736
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 1: how genocides start. But well, I mean, I don't think

737
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 1: they're seeing the nuance. And I think I honestly, I

738
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: wonder how many these people like love Harry Potter, you know,

739
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 1: because they have no content. I don't know how much

740
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 1: context they have. As I've seen with a lot of

741
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:58,399
Speaker 1: like anti vax rhetoric, there's a lot of like they'll

742
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 1: say things that drift into problematic historical context and then

743
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 1: they don't understand why they just know like buzzwords and

744
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,880
Speaker 1: things like that. And this one feels just so millennial

745
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 1: to me, like this is this doesn't happen, Like we're

746
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 1: not saying this unless Harry Potter fucked up millions of

747
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 1: people's minds. I don't know where else, Like it just

748
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 1: feels it feels like an easy step for people. But

749
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: again a little bit grim. You're describing yourself like that

750
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 1: isn't pure blood, like what Draco malfoy and like the

751
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 1: Bad Guys isn't that even like the Bad Guy's point

752
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,919
Speaker 1: of view? And I'm not familiar with all the lore,

753
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 1: but I did see a lot of jokes about being like, oh,

754
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 1: this is gonna get confused with a lot of Draco memes.

755
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, but oh so you're saying in there that

756
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: just means bad. Well, no, it's a it's a value

757
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 1: like for for the same reasons that it was associated

758
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,399
Speaker 1: with or like so popular with nazis like that there's

759
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 1: a lot of like not see ideology like tied up

760
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 1: in The Bad Guys and Harry Potter, so like they're right,

761
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 1: Like the protagonist is I think they call her a

762
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:16,320
Speaker 1: half blood where she's like has a non wizard parent

763
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:20,359
Speaker 1: or something like that. So and like yeah, there there

764
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 1: is stuff like mud blood and stuff like that that

765
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:28,719
Speaker 1: they call people who have human blood or human parentage.

766
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 1: But like that's not good, that's not like so like

767
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: if these are Harry Potter fans, like they're uh, they're

768
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 1: missing the context or they're just like, yeah, we're a

769
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: team the bad guy. We're team Baltimore. What about you?

770
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:49,440
Speaker 1: You Team Baltimore, Baltimore. I'm hufflepuff blood whatever that is.

771
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,799
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm dirty blood over here. Listen, the

772
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 1: dirtiest blood. I got the J and J vaccine before

773
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 1: we knew that one was gonna clot me up. I'm

774
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 1: just a giant walking clot around here. You see me

775
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn, You're like, what is that? Lady. That's a

776
00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:06,759
Speaker 1: giant plot lady, that's it. Uh yeah, anyway, I don't

777
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 1: know anymore Harry Potter words. I used to work for

778
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 1: a teen blog and I was not on the Harry

779
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:16,400
Speaker 1: Potter beat. Souple is the only word I know. Quidditch

780
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 1: had a great quidditch team. Remember it's the one weird

781
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,280
Speaker 1: thing was like, let's not talk about this in public everyone,

782
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, he played right, you had I've seen your

783
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 1: varsity jacket for that. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, look, okay,

784
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: look full disclosure. Yeah I was sucking it up, you

785
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 1: know what I mean. I was pretty good, but I

786
00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:44,320
Speaker 1: did it under a pseudonym cho Chang. Alright, So it's terrifying.

787
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 1: The fake vaccine car business is booming, but we can

788
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:50,399
Speaker 1: talk about that on a later episode. What we need

789
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 1: to talk about is how no one knows what the

790
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:59,240
Speaker 1: funk McDonald's grimace is supposed to be. You know, Emily,

791
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 1: you just mentioned, uh, you know, a walking clot and

792
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 1: I think the people people might think that that's as

793
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:10,799
Speaker 1: good a guess as anybody seems to have. But so

794
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:13,480
Speaker 1: it all started through a bath. Matt, he's kind of Harry, right,

795
00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 1: I gotta pull him up here for a second. I

796
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 1: feel just like purple Google with the face. Yeah. So

797
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,080
Speaker 1: there was a CBC interview with a McDonald's manager and

798
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 1: Windsor Ontario, who had been named Outstanding Manager of the Year,

799
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: and that's he therefore became the subject of an interview

800
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:37,440
Speaker 1: with a major Canadian outlet because Canada is fucking adorable

801
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,320
Speaker 1: and anyway, at the end of the interview, the manager

802
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:46,920
Speaker 1: was asked what the deal was with Grimace. The other question, Yeah,

803
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 1: because like the other McDonald land characters are pretty straightforward.

804
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 1: Ronald is a clown. Mayor mccheese is a sentient burger guy.

805
00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:00,799
Speaker 1: The Hamburglar is a thief who loves eatings, despite the

806
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:04,920
Speaker 1: fact that they clearly have the capacity for intelligence and

807
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:09,239
Speaker 1: interest in regional politics. But they were like, but Grimace, like,

808
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 1: we've just never really been able to figure it out.

809
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:18,400
Speaker 1: And according to the manager, he is an enormous taste bud,

810
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 1: which is fucking gross. How wait, how do we know?

811
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,720
Speaker 1: That's the gospel truth? So we're so people started looking

812
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 1: into it. It is something that has been claimed quite

813
00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 1: a bit for a long time. In twelve, the McDonald's

814
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 1: twitter accounts specifically stated that Grimace is not a taste bud,

815
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:45,479
Speaker 1: but the quote embodiment of a milkshake. I was gonna say,

816
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,000
Speaker 1: he kind of reminds me of like the last little

817
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:50,319
Speaker 1: like the little bit of soda that doesn't make it

818
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 1: into the cup, you know, and it's just like syrupy

819
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:58,359
Speaker 1: soda drop. Yeah, syrup soda drop and that's why he's

820
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:01,560
Speaker 1: upset because he didn't get He didn't get in. But

821
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,840
Speaker 1: there's no purple milkshake at McDonald's and there's no purple

822
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:09,920
Speaker 1: soda available at McDonald's. Well, if he was brown, he

823
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:14,680
Speaker 1: would look like poop, right right, that's true. And if

824
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:17,279
Speaker 1: he was white, he would get dirty really fast. Yeah,

825
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:19,359
Speaker 1: he would look like they'd sue for like like he's

826
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:24,680
Speaker 1: a rip off michelin Man puff marshmallow guy. Oh believe

827
00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 1: me that. So it gets this is follow me down

828
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 1: the rabbit hole, the Grimace rabbit hole. So our writer

829
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 1: j M looked back into the history of Grimace. He

830
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:39,720
Speaker 1: actually began as a villain, introduced in UH nineteen seventy

831
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:44,360
Speaker 1: two as the Evil Grimace, a purple monster with four arms.

832
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 1: He was basically the hamburglar, but he loves stealing beverages,

833
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:52,600
Speaker 1: including coke and milkshakes, and in commercials we'd see him

834
00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:56,040
Speaker 1: like hoarding hundreds of cups of milkshakes and soda, and

835
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:58,400
Speaker 1: Ronald and his friends would have to use their wits

836
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:02,400
Speaker 1: to steal it back. Which why an adult clown and

837
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,440
Speaker 1: two small children need ten times their weight and coke

838
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:09,920
Speaker 1: was never addressed? Why why are they on trial. Man,

839
00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:13,560
Speaker 1: I have a theory now that I just made up

840
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:17,719
Speaker 1: that there was a time that McDonald's thought that they

841
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 1: could basically be like the next comic book superheroes. So

842
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 1: they were like making narratives so that they could have

843
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:29,279
Speaker 1: cartoons and books. And so you're saying the original m

844
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 1: c U, the McDonald's cinematic universe exactly is what they

845
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 1: were trying to establish. Okay, interesting, It just sounds like

846
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 1: they really were going for it with like stories of

847
00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,719
Speaker 1: you know, now we've got two villains, like, yeah, what

848
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:45,600
Speaker 1: is that is that from a book? Jack? This like

849
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: evil Grimace thing, Like this is when they were like, hey,

850
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:52,239
Speaker 1: like parents and doctor nate your kids with tales of

851
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 1: Ronald and friends. It appears to be a print ad

852
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,560
Speaker 1: would be my guess which it is, like designed to

853
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:03,920
Speaker 1: look like a storybook. But Grimace has four arms and

854
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:08,640
Speaker 1: weird like legs, so it's basically like a six armed

855
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:14,400
Speaker 1: insect that is also blob shaped, and it's it's Ronald

856
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 1: McDonald looking up in arms about having his milkshake stolen.

857
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 1: So Grimmas made the switch from good to evil, and

858
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,280
Speaker 1: they cut off two of his arms in the process

859
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:28,080
Speaker 1: because he was and You're not gonna believe this when

860
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:31,720
Speaker 1: I when I tell you, because he was inadvertently scaring

861
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 1: their child customers. Because how a giant like fat spider

862
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:44,880
Speaker 1: that steals your food? How's that like, Mr blood clot

863
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 1: What if we do it with a Jamaican accent? Do

864
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,359
Speaker 1: you like him better? Now? Oh? They really hate this

865
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:55,719
Speaker 1: freaky four limbed creature, six limbed creature? Huh. And then

866
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:58,960
Speaker 1: there's the other reason for the redesign, which was that

867
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:03,520
Speaker 1: McDonald was sued over there McDonald land Gang, which resembled

868
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:07,840
Speaker 1: characters from the TV show HR Puffin Stuff, And I

869
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:10,759
Speaker 1: think McDonald's actually reached out to them and was like, hey,

870
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,840
Speaker 1: can we like license those characters and they were like no,

871
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:19,040
Speaker 1: And then McDonald's was like, Okay, we'll just copy it,

872
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:23,760
Speaker 1: and we're we have more lawyers than you yeaow. According

873
00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:26,560
Speaker 1: to the laws to McDonald's not only approached creator Sid

874
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:30,719
Speaker 1: and Marty Croft about collaborating on a campaign that immediately

875
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:34,279
Speaker 1: scrapped it, they also recruited former hr puffin Stuff employees

876
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:37,319
Speaker 1: to help design McDonald Land so they lost that and

877
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:40,839
Speaker 1: had to pay them a bunch of money. But so

878
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,560
Speaker 1: Evil Grimace was based on a character called Seymour Spider,

879
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:49,680
Speaker 1: and they I think just removed the two extra arms

880
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,200
Speaker 1: to make him seem less, like a rip off of

881
00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 1: the horrifying Spider. I just love that, like little tweak

882
00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:00,719
Speaker 1: that they're like, we're good, dude, we're good. Yeah six,

883
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:02,760
Speaker 1: what are you gonna say that? That ain't no spider

884
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 1: your honor? A spider has eight limbs, we call our

885
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,840
Speaker 1: expert witness. How many limbs does the spider have? E

886
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:16,240
Speaker 1: it's a little baby spiders the defense rest your honor.

887
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,759
Speaker 1: But wow, I love the the energy that they go for.

888
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 1: It reminds me of a tiny Fuppets that's cartoon. That's

889
00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:28,400
Speaker 1: clearly a muppet baby's room, but they do the lameages

890
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 1: like it's not Kermit, it's Kremit. Don't say it's has

891
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:34,880
Speaker 1: anything to do with their original ip. Yeah ga, so

892
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 1: he was so what he's retired kermanently permanently, it's retired.

893
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:46,279
Speaker 1: He's retired currently, but not permanently, because characters have been

894
00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:49,759
Speaker 1: retired and then come back and sexy new iterations like

895
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:55,680
Speaker 1: the handsome Hamburglar that they released a design of the

896
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:58,479
Speaker 1: kind of where did everybody out? A few years ago?

897
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:04,279
Speaker 1: Hopefully they're planning a sexy Grimace, but you know, I mean,

898
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:07,359
Speaker 1: I just I'd rather just have some closure around what

899
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:11,040
Speaker 1: he is once and for all. Yeah, you know, it's

900
00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:14,200
Speaker 1: also like if that is a taste but it is

901
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:20,080
Speaker 1: a swollen, infected taste bud that which is kind of

902
00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:22,600
Speaker 1: what it tastes like like after you've eaten McDonald's, and

903
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 1: your your taste buds like are like kind of have

904
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:29,600
Speaker 1: pins and needles because you've eaten so much sodium and sugar.

905
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:32,360
Speaker 1: At the same time, it feels like there's a layer

906
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:35,439
Speaker 1: of Greece on your tongue that you can't get off,

907
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Grimace and that Grimace is

908
00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:45,839
Speaker 1: just the you know, impressionist kind of version of what

909
00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 1: that feeling is after you eat McDonald's. Maybe that's what

910
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:53,319
Speaker 1: it is. Oh well, you know, well we hope to

911
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:58,760
Speaker 1: know the real you one day. M M big big g. Well, Emily,

912
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,719
Speaker 1: it has been such a pleasure having you. Where can

913
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,279
Speaker 1: people find you and follow you and read you and

914
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 1: all that good stuff? Thank you so much for having me.

915
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:09,920
Speaker 1: This has been awesome. I'm very excited about my trivia

916
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:13,120
Speaker 1: book that is coming out next month. I love trivia

917
00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 1: and I got to write this over the pandemic. So

918
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:19,600
Speaker 1: it's mostly uplifting trivia things that make us not as

919
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:22,760
Speaker 1: sad because of the year and a half that we've had.

920
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,759
Speaker 1: And it's called one Day Smarter, and you can get

921
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:28,600
Speaker 1: it anywhere that you get your books. Pre Orders always help.

922
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:31,319
Speaker 1: I didn't know this, but it's like why people put

923
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,920
Speaker 1: like why bookstores put books on tables rather than on

924
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 1: bottom shelves because those books got a lot of pre orders.

925
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:40,399
Speaker 1: So I appreciate pre orders. I'm on the internet at

926
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:45,040
Speaker 1: Emily Winter Comedy dot com and Emily mick Winter on

927
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:48,960
Speaker 1: Instagram and Twitter because my middle name is McKenna and

928
00:56:49,040 --> 00:56:50,759
Speaker 1: I made a decision a long time ago and it

929
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:54,719
Speaker 1: was the wrong decision. Um and that is And you

930
00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 1: can follow comedians with ghost stories wherever you find podcasts,

931
00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:01,080
Speaker 1: and thank you, and is there is there a place

932
00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:04,240
Speaker 1: that you would prefer they go to purchase the book? Honestly,

933
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,960
Speaker 1: like if you have a bookstore that is your local

934
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:11,320
Speaker 1: bookstore that you know you might end up paying seventy

935
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,400
Speaker 1: cents more for the book, but you can ask them

936
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:15,200
Speaker 1: if they carry it, and you can a lot of

937
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,200
Speaker 1: my friends have pre ordered from their local store, So

938
00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 1: hopefully your local store will have it. Is there a

939
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:25,360
Speaker 1: favorite uplifting trivia effect that you can use as a teaser? Okay,

940
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:29,360
Speaker 1: so this one makes me so happy. This is one study,

941
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,600
Speaker 1: is just one study, but one study found that the

942
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:35,439
Speaker 1: happiest ages a D two. And the reason for that

943
00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 1: is that if you're still with it by a D two,

944
00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 1: you don't care anymore. If you're like hot or rich

945
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:45,000
Speaker 1: or like you didn't get that job, like, you don't care.

946
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:47,920
Speaker 1: You're just chilling, You're just having fun. And so it

947
00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:51,160
Speaker 1: just makes me excited about aging because we're all supposed

948
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:52,640
Speaker 1: to be like, oh no, I wish I was twenty

949
00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:55,600
Speaker 1: five forever and know we let's all get to eighty

950
00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 1: two and keep our wits about us and have a

951
00:57:57,320 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 1: great year. Yeah. No, I think that's one of the

952
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:04,160
Speaker 1: big underrated kind of myths of American culture is that,

953
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:08,240
Speaker 1: like you, life gets worse as you age. Apparently that's

954
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:11,720
Speaker 1: not true, according to happiness studies. Just kind of figure

955
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,960
Speaker 1: it out as you go. You learn tricks. Is there

956
00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:17,400
Speaker 1: a tweet or some of the work of social media

957
00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 1: you've been enjoying, Oh, you know, I didn't. I found

958
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:22,880
Speaker 1: one today. I was on Twitter today, and you know,

959
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:26,280
Speaker 1: Norm McDonald just died, so I feel like that is

960
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:29,640
Speaker 1: taking over my Twitter, and I was getting kind of

961
00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:32,360
Speaker 1: annoyed with some of the norm McDonald tweets and uh,

962
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:35,560
Speaker 1: this wonderful comedian in Chicago, Jeffrey Asthmas. It's Jeffrey with

963
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:38,800
Speaker 1: a G e O F F e er. Why a

964
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:41,560
Speaker 1: t M is his Twitter handle? He said, before you

965
00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:44,920
Speaker 1: publicly more in a celebrity's death, make sure the post

966
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 1: doesn't mention you more than them. And it's not a funny,

967
00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:52,320
Speaker 1: super funny tweet, just super super real because I'm so

968
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,520
Speaker 1: sick of seeing morning tweets that are like me, me, me,

969
00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:57,360
Speaker 1: I I I. I'm like, okay, great, somebody's dead, you

970
00:58:57,400 --> 00:58:59,720
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Just show a little respect. So

971
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:05,560
Speaker 1: Jeffrey nailed that, I thought, and it was cool. Yeah, yeah, Miles,

972
00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 1: Where can people find you? What's tweet you've been enjoying? Oh?

Speaker 1: You can find me on Twitter and Instagram at Miles

974
00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:16,880
Speaker 1: of Gray. And also the other show for twenty Day

975
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:20,000
Speaker 1: Fiance was Sophia Alexandra. If you like ninety day Fiance,

976
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:23,560
Speaker 1: stop by for that because it's a raucous good time

977
00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:28,120
Speaker 1: and I just wanna shout at the the NICKI minaj

978
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:33,680
Speaker 1: to Trinidad and Tobago cousins balls tweet as just has

979
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:38,040
Speaker 1: will never end. It seems like past guess. Danielle Radford

980
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:42,400
Speaker 1: at Danielle Radford tweeted, there is no big balls man,

981
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 1: is the thing professional healthcare experts were forced to say.

982
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:49,040
Speaker 1: And this is because the Health Minister had to come

983
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,280
Speaker 1: out and just say there has been no such case

984
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:54,280
Speaker 1: as the Big balls man, and I just let me

985
00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:56,800
Speaker 1: try to find the audio. One of the reasons we

986
00:59:56,880 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 1: could not respond yesterday in real time to ms Manage

987
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:05,920
Speaker 1: is that we had to check and make sure that

988
01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:09,360
Speaker 1: what she was claiming was either true or false. We

989
01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 1: did an Unfortunately, we wasted so much time yesterday running

990
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 1: down this false claim. It is as far as we

991
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:23,160
Speaker 1: know at this point in time, there has been no

992
01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 1: such reported either side effect or adverse event. And what

993
01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:34,720
Speaker 1: was sad about this is that it wasted our time

994
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 1: yesterday trying to track down because we take all these

995
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:45,880
Speaker 1: claims seriously, whether it's on social media or mainstream media.

996
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:52,800
Speaker 1: As we stand now, there is absolutely no reported such

997
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:59,080
Speaker 1: side effect or adverse event of testiculous while in Trinidad

998
01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:03,640
Speaker 1: or ideas see Dr Hanks anywhere else. None that we

999
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 1: know of anywhere else in the world. So just again,

1000
01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:12,360
Speaker 1: the most professional response to a bad fake science tweet,

1001
01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:15,920
Speaker 1: and just this guy, you've been feeling so sad. Gosh,

1002
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:17,800
Speaker 1: this is what happens when you This is what happens

1003
01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: when we get these platforms. They're too big. If we

1004
01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 1: forced someone in Trinidad do all this work because Nicki

1005
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:30,200
Speaker 1: Minaj had a really cool anecdote. Yeah, let's see a

1006
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:36,440
Speaker 1: tweet I've been enjoying is from a current guest, Emothy
