And now everyone's 18 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: just like whoa, I mean, here's it. This is like again, 19 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: looks like religion when you get high up in a 20 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 1: certain point you just fucking you have completely left earth 21 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: and you are just allowed to do whatever the fuck 22 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: you want. He put out like a really really weird 23 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: apology that wasn't He's like, I'm sorry if that upset someone, right, yeah, yeah, 24 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: non apology apology, Sorry if you were offended, because he's 25 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: got the religious leader thing. I also feel like you 26 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: always see him hanging with like Hollywood, like at like 27 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: a Goop launch party that that's probably not an exactly true, 28 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: but like that's just the general vibes of like the 29 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: DOLLI Logue always seems to be like in weird celebrity 30 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: settings also, so it's just a strange stew of influences 31 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: that I feel like can't be good for someone learning accountability. 32 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: I mean, look, we're all the talk of like grooming 33 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: and shit, look at this video is fucking obscene. Like 34 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: I don't, I don't, I don't know how he's trying 35 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: to make it look like this kid is so uncomfortable 36 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: and he's like sticking his tongue out. It's anyway, all 37 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: I keep thinking about is how I watched that Nexium 38 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: documentary and the Dali Lama was meeting with keeping hearing 39 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: and I'm like, hold on, why the are you even 40 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: giving him an audience? Um, but here we are, y'all. 41 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: Super producer Brian said, he's on the flight lugs. I 42 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: could have believed that. Yeah, I mean again, that whole thing, 43 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: just to reveal that it's like, yeah, powerful people, they 44 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: have the capacity to be absolutely disgusting and vile. So 45 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: it's like so unsetting, like for because people like the 46 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: way the deference that's paid to him, and then you're 47 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: like starting to see this and you're like, oh, I 48 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: don't know how the fuck you square this at all, 49 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 1: Like he's assaulting this kid, but he's like, I'm just 50 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: teasing him, is what he said in the in his 51 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: like quote unquote apology. Yeah, anyway, it's really upsetting. Don't 52 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: look at it if you don't have to not and 53 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: I appreciate you. Just it's just enough to read the 54 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: headline you like want to be sent plenty. I think 55 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: I got it all right. So the GOP has a 56 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: little problem. They've been firing up their base for decades 57 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: being like we're gonna overturn Roe v Wade. Just wait, 58 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: just you wait, We're gonna do it if you just 59 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: keep voting for us keep funding us. And then they 60 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: did it, and it's wildly unpopular and it's losing them 61 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: lots of elections. Yeah, recently Wisconsin, that's Supreme court race 62 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: lost by ten fucking points in a place where that 63 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: shit just does not happen. Well, I mean, if they 64 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: had maybe had like I think a conservative could have 65 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: won if their whole thing wasn't about being like yeah, 66 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: and right now we've got a lawn the books that 67 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: predates the Civil War. Yeah, on abortion, that's not a 68 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: winning message, and they tried to clean it up like 69 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: in the build up to the election. It just wasn't enough. 70 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: Because at the end of the day, it's clear even 71 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: like Republicans aren't so like as a plurity and like, yeah, 72 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: we should restrict people's right. So like, man, dude, let 73 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: fucking people get abortions if they fucking want, because that's healthcare. 74 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: So one thing you've seen a lot of is like 75 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 1: conservatives who have like really been panicked after what happened 76 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin. They're like, we gotta stay on this, Like 77 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: we can't keep doing that making the same mistakes. They 78 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: think our policies are extreme with pro life, we need 79 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: to embrace Lindsay Graham's fifteen week ban and that's the 80 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: way out of this. It's still a fucking ban, okay. 81 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: And so I don't know why they think it's like, 82 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,559 Speaker 1: but it's it's kind of more humane. I'm just gonna 83 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: play that. He was on Fox News talking about like 84 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 1: his cred as a pro life Republican, but also like 85 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: goes on to say, just a bunch of lies and 86 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 1: stuff from you know, like think tanks that are here 87 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: to just vilify you know, gay people or people want abortions. Anyway, 88 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: Lindsay Graham take it away, well, very pro life and 89 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: being pro life is a winning message. Oh, I oppose 90 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: late term abortions. I have a bill to set a 91 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: national minimum standard of fifteen weeks. Fifty of the fifty 92 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 1: three European nations ban abortion at fifteen weeks. I have 93 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: an exception for rape, insist in life of the mother. 94 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: In Wisconsin, you had an eighteen forty statute that banned 95 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: abortion pretty much across the board, and the Republican Party 96 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: did not put an alternative on the table. If you're 97 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: pro life, you need to explain what that means. And 98 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: then he goes on and be like, I want to 99 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: protect as many babies as possible. Please completely gloss over 100 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: the thing I've said about fifty of the fifty three 101 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: European nations are like what because a thing that you 102 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: don't realize is like, it's much easier to have an 103 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: abortion in Europe for the most part. And then he 104 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,280 Speaker 1: also goes on to be like, if we do this, 105 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: like have you know this other well worn line attack 106 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 1: line of like tax funded abortion, like on demand or 107 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: up to the moment of birth. Again, other complete fabrication 108 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: to kind of get people on board. But yeah, it's 109 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: just it's interesting to see how much like a lot 110 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: of pro life evangelicals and people who are like who 111 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: are lobbying for that, how much they're freaking out right 112 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 1: now because they're like, we're about to lose this abortion 113 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 1: issue if the GOP doesn't know how to properly message it. 114 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: But you're like, the end, at the end of the day, 115 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: the message is you have no control over your own 116 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 1: fucking body. Yes, that's that's kind of the core of 117 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: your It's not so much you want to dial that 118 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: back body autonomy, it's that anyway. So they continue to 119 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: scream at full voice in a panic and they're like, 120 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: we gotta get behind Lindsay Graham's one, Lindsay Grant. The 121 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: thesis seems to be of the Lindsay Graham plan seems 122 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: to be have we tried lying? Have we tried just 123 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: lying about what we actually want? Absolutely? Yeah, absolutely, And 124 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: he's like, I'm trying to like phrase it. It's like 125 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna We're gonna be like Europe. You know. It's like, no, dude, 126 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: just can let it go. But again, it's just wild 127 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 1: to see how how cynical they are in certain policies 128 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: where you know, they know what they're doing, what they're 129 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: trying to get after, and this one is like one 130 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: of those like the dog caught the car kind of moments, 131 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: or like it was great to just ring that bell 132 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: and see who came to feed on it. But then 133 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: once it happens and you're like, oh shit, it's a loser. Yeah, 134 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: sho shows you that some things might work better, as 135 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: you know, in the rhetorical sense than the I R 136 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: L sense. Yeah, for them at least, it's also not 137 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: good because it's winning Democrats elections without Democrats actually having 138 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: to do anything for the people that they represent. They 139 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: love that. Yeah, it's like what if we like because 140 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: this is the one time they're like, what if we 141 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: correct the status quo, like and bring it back to 142 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: the status quo rather than like blowing it up in 143 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: which case like that, I don't know about about that. Yeah. Um, 144 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: Louisville is trending because unfortunately it is the site of 145 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: another mass shooting. Um. And this is yet another instance 146 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: where a governor has a personal relationship with victims. Yeah, 147 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: so some people are speculating this might mean that more 148 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: people are expelled from the state legislature. You know, Christ, 149 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: we could see some action at some point. No. Yeah, 150 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: it's super bleak, as all the mass shooting stories are, 151 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: because it feels like we've it's just one of those 152 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: issues that stays bad, stares us in the face, and 153 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: the majority is pretty on board with doing something about it, 154 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: but systemic political problems cause it to just be a 155 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: fucking stalemate. I mean it's you know, a lot of 156 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: this stat's been going around. This would this would be 157 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: the one hundred forty six mass shooting in one hundred days, 158 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: like one hundred calendar days of this year. Yeah, and 159 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: like again, like even with the shooting in Tennessee, the 160 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: governor wouldn't use the word gun in the aftermath of it, 161 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: even though he even said, I was, oh, yeah, my 162 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: wife was gonna have dinner with the principle of that 163 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: school that night. And then you have there was a 164 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: projectile event that occurred there, Yeah, a dynamic projectile event 165 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: with high velocity dynamic projectiles. And then Governor Andy Basher 166 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: he was you know, he got choked up talking about 167 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: he said, I have a very close friend that didn't 168 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: make it today. And I'm curious.

But it's just you know, the presence of guns. Yes, 180 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: fucking that's all it takes. I remember when I like 181 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 1: and when I was growing up, I had friends who 182 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: whose family has had guns, you know, and like that 183 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: was my first interaction to seeing like guns, Like like 184 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: someone's parents had guns or whatever and they were responsible 185 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: gun ors or whatever.

That's what comes with it. And to him, 191 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 1: it was easier for him to just have like a bat, 192 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean by the bed and just 193 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 1: go like that's what we'll use.

Only there was some legislation that had 231 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 1: worked in the past, such as an assault weapon ban 232 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: that yeah, yeah, all right, let's take a quick break. 233 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: We'll be right back, And we're back, and so is 234 00:12:56,120 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: the box office bafo PO for the Super Mario Brothers movie. 235 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: Who um, people can boffing it up? Yeah, an air 236 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: I guess did pretty well for uh what people were expecting. 237 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: But Super Mario Brothers the story, I mean it made 238 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: like three hundred million dollars world crazy. I mean, this 239 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: is one of the most recognizable video game characters. And 240 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: aside from my own anger at Chris Pratt's voice, uh, 241 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: many people were able to overcome that. Yeah, the trailer, 242 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: they did a nice job with the trailer. I haven't 243 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 1: I haven't seen the movie.

Yeah. 245 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 1: I think the best thing to come out of Air though, 246 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: is the new round of Ben Affleck speaking Spanish videos. 247 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: Is there a new round of those? Oh my boy, 248 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: just take a look at this. He's Ben Affleck is 249 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: saying Jack and the story Michael Jordan, Michael Jordan, Istan magnify.

It is out here. 251 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: There was there was one where he went on, I 252 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: think on a Spanish like sports show and they were 253 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: talking about like, oh, look, you're from Boston. What do 254 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: you think about? Like, uh, you know, are you like 255 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: Celtics reds Just I just want to hear him him, 256 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: like like getting down on sports talk to Celtics lost, 257 00:14:50,440 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: Red Sox lost Patriots. So my man is fucking checked in. 258 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: I hear he's like he's he's a real polyglot. Someone 259 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: was saying, he I think he also speaks Arabic or 260 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: like knows a bit of Arabic as well. Okay, Ben? Yeah, 261 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: So anyway, so that was again that was my favorite 262 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: part takeaway from air. Yeah, it's like, yo, Ben Affleck, 263 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: just drop him in. He's hanging with the boys. It's 264 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: always interesting. Like obviously the Super Mario Brothers returns are like, Okay, 265 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: that's astronomical. That's like an event. That movie clearly connected 266 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: the Air one is like it made twenty million dollars. Um. 267 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe'll like go on to like build 268 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: some steam, but I could have seen like the reaction 269 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: to that going either way. But even the reaction to 270 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: Air is like makes me feel gross in the same 271 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: way the movie does that. It's like the underdog tail 272 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: of the marketing scheme. Like this quote from I Think 273 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: It's Deadline is like, kudos to Amazon's marketing and publicity team. 274 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,239 Speaker 1: Are rated adult dramas haven't been easy to find audiences, 275 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: and getting Air to twenty million is a great feat 276 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: the movie buy and for people who respect the hell 277 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: out of marketing, right right, seriously, Hey, oh man, a 278 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: marketing triumph, and that's what we're looking for. We're looking 279 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: for those feel good stories. It makes feel good about 280 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: America marketers winning Biden twenty twenty four. Yeah, the story 281 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: nobody's been waiting for. But it's kind of the thing 282 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: that well, when you'll hear about it, when we talk 283 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: about the no Labels Party in tomorrow's episode. But it's funny. 284 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: And when the No Labels Party talks about why they 285 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: think a third party ticket could win, it's because they're 286 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: like sixty four percent of Democrats don't want Biden to 287 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: run and sixty one percent of Republicans don't want Trump 288 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: to run. Yeah, And it's what's funny is both sides 289 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: are saying they're not going far enough in their respective directions, 290 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: right like, and we got to be in the middle. 291 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: It's like, no, you're not. You're not understanding why they don't. 292 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 1: But he's saying Biden, like when he was asked about, 293 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: you know, if he's gonna what the deal is, he's like, 294 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:10,959 Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, I'm planning on it. He's like, but 295 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: I'm quote not prepared to announce quite yet. But one 296 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: thing that is coming into focus is his digital strategy, 297 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 1: his media strategy, because it sounds like he's just going 298 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: to go with kind of what was happening with like 299 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: his COVID stuff is like hire an army of digital 300 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: influencers to counteract Trump's massive media following. So he's going 301 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: He's going straight for the hearts of the youngs. And 302 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: how did that work with COVID. I don't I don't 303 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 1: remember that that being I mean, I think the most 304 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: you remember is like Olivia Rodrigo went to the White Okay, 305 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: you know what I meant it, and it was like 306 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: one of those moments. But the way they look at 307 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,919 Speaker 1: it too is they're gonna have digital staffers now on 308 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 1: the campaign or something like that, where some of these 309 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: influencers will have like a line to the White House apparently. Uh. 310 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: And then but in the more like camp painway, it's 311 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 1: more like when he's doing a campaign, stop and there's 312 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: an influencer that's local and can actually get like get 313 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: some turnout through that, like collaborating with them to get 314 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: more people to show up to hear the old man goal? 315 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: Where am I? What day is it? Who am I? 316 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: My popcorn? Where's it? There's popcorn? I smell popcorn. I 317 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: having a stroke.
