46
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,839
Speaker 2: own kind of version there by Freudian quick because look,

47
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 2: we're talking about home alone. Kevin Mcowisler is dead the

48
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 2: whole time, y'all. Depending on how he's out. He may

49
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 2: have a fever of one hundred and three. He may

50
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 2: have that one, you know, that might have been how

51
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,840

53
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,359

Speaker 2: seminole Christmas movie that will get you thinking.

55
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,959

00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:12,440

00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: Reddit fan theories of the past year.

59
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 2: She's paying for the trip because she's a fashion I

60
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: guess that changes.

61
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: It's not a fan theory, that's just, you know, something

62

Speaker 1: that's entirely possible. First on the facts that we've been given, Miles,

Speaker 1: to ask our guests, what is something from your search

159
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: history that is revealing about.

160
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 2: Who you are?

161
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 3: The Only thing I can think of is that I

162
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 3: went out to eat with one of my friends the

163
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 3: other day and I had to search what is what

164
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 3: is the sushi that's a taco but not really a

165
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 3: taco and it's tamaki because it's like the open face

166
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 3: like sushi. But I didn't know what it was.

167
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay, so you're talking about just the little

168
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 1: bed of rice with the sushi on top.

169
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 2: Of it, but it's like wrapped in the seaweed but like,

170
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 2: oh okay, like a hand roll.

171
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm like a foodie, but like I don't always

172
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 3: have the right names for stuff. So I'm like, okay, well,

173
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 3: what is the sushi kind of taco hybrids?

174
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,959
Speaker 2: It looks like an ice cream cone filled with fish, right,

175
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 2: it does? And it was good.

176
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 3: I mean, we went to the place and it was amazing.

177
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 2: There's a there's like a place in LA that's just

178
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 2: all hand rolls that I know, Like I don't know

179
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 2: if I'm sure they have that kind of west right, yeah,

180
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 2: and like they have it by the I forget the

181
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 2: name anyway, but yeah, timuki is like my one of

182
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,199
Speaker 2: my favorites. Usually you eat it at the end, like

183
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 2: when you have like a sushi meal, because like the

184
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,959
Speaker 2: mentality is you like it's it's meant to be the

185
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 2: closing sushi that you eat to make sure like oh oh,

186
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 2: so you think you're full now, well then try this

187
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 2: one and now go home, get down. Yeah, that's why

188
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 2: I like the philosophy behind it. It's like no hit

189
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 2: hit yourself with the big one at that end.

190
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: Is there a study of food that like passes through

191
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,959
Speaker 1: you at like different speed, the speed at which you

192
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: go from full to not full anymore? Because sushi, I

193
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: can eat myself to like stuffed to the like very

194
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 1: bottom of my esophagus, like I can feel the sushi

195
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: down there, and then like be hungry an hour and

196
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 1: a half later, whereas like Thanksgiving dinner or something like that,

197
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: I'm done, like I'm cooked, Like, yeah, it's just stuck.

198
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is.

199
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,839
Speaker 2: Korean food also goes right through me. I feel. I

200
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 2: feel like it's a.

201
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 1: Lot of the foods from Asian countries that.

202
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 2: Are like that. You're able to eat a ton. I

203
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 2: mean it's probably able.

204
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 1: To eat a ton and then be hungry at like

205
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 1: the next time a meal rolls around you. Look, we

206
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: like to eat, man, we like to Yeah, so we're

207
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: not gonna get slowed down.

208
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 2: And I think I don't know. I mean, I know

209
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 2: the same way. I think a lot of it, Like

210
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 2: when eating sushi. There's also the part of it you're like,

211
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 2: how much fucking money is this costing? So like you

212
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 2: can't I mean, unless you want to really go there,

213
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 2: like you could. I'm I'm sure you could eat that amount,

214
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 2: but I'm sure there's also like a psychological effect of like, Okay,

215
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 2: do I get another fifteen dollars thing and see if

216
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,199
Speaker 2: that will do it, you know what I mean, versus

217
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 2: like what fifteen bucks gets me a chipotlet or something.

218
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 2: I think there's that part of it too. I don't

219
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 2: know if anyone's eating to their full potential.

220
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean starches make you feel right, and

221
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 3: they fiber stuff, I think, but I feel like it's

222
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 3: like things that are super fatty or whatever, like they

223
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 3: make you want more because like if I eat bacon,

224
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 3: I never want to stop, you know. It's like if

225
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 3: I eat like pork belly or something, I never want

226
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 3: to stop. I want to keep going.

227
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 2: Oh you so you like the like the luxurious kind

228
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 2: of juicy, fatty parts of I look when you said

229
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 2: bacon and pork belly. It's the same part, but we're

230
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 2: doing it different ways. And I'm like, I love I.

231
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: Say the number one food for like what I'm talking

232
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 1: about is pancakes, because pancakes you eat them and then

233
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: get less and less hungry after you've eaten them as

234
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 1: they expand in your stomach, you know. Oh right, right,

235
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: Like I get more and more full, like even after

236
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: I've eaten them. Right, So, like there is a science

237
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: that I'm sure like chefs and culinary artists pay attention

238
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 1: to it, like, Okay, this is how it's gonna feel

239
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 1: going down, but also like once you've eaten it, because

240
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: you do have like taste buds in your stomach. You know,

241
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,719
Speaker 1: that's that's a part of There's definitely stuff that when

242
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: you eat it or drink it, it's like, oh, I

243
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: liked it when I was having it in my mouth,

244
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: but then like there's just something about it that fucks

245
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,439
Speaker 1: me up once it's in my stomach.

246
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 5: You know.

247
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 2: Wisdom, what Raquel? What is something you think is overrated?

248
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 3: What do I think is overrated? Oh, at the risk

249
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:39,839
Speaker 3: of being political, the Democratic Party risk it.

250
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 2: It's a mess.

251
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 3: It's a mess. I mean, it's been a mess. But

252
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 3: like I can't I can't with these folks who are

253
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 3: like blue no matter who, like that kind of man.

254
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 2: I'm just like, no, we it does matter. It actually does, right,

255
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 2: That's I mean. I think a lot of peop don't

256
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 2: realize it's a you are in a very luxurious, privileged

257
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 2: position if you have the philosophy of I vote blue

258
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 2: no matter who. Yeah, because there's so many factors around

259
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 2: a political candidate or what a party's platform is. I

260
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 2: mean we talk about this a lot on the show

261
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 2: because we're very critical. We're like, you have to give

262
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 2: us better options than this now, because like you can't

263
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 2: keep promising folks certain things and then just like just

264
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,599
Speaker 2: ghost like you forgot about it. Yeah, you're like, no,

265
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 2: we didn't forget about existential threats. What are you talking about? Like,

266
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 2: I'm not going to drop these issues, but yeah, they

267
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 2: did just feel a little bit like that.

268
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's like those are the same folks who

269
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 3: have the critique of conservatives that vote for any of

270
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 3: the riff raft that they have. So I'm like, come

271
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,079
Speaker 3: on now, right, yeah, get what the program.

272
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 2: I know. And I think there's a part of it

273
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 2: too that.

274
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:55,839
Speaker 5: You know.

275
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 2: There's another thing. You always hear people be like, oh,

276
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 2: so you want Trump to win. It's like, yeah, no,

277
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 2: I don't want Trump to win. I'm telling you. I'm

278
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 2: I'm saying, as a party that's courting someone's vote, you

279
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 2: have to offer some someone. Just like sales. You can't

280
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 2: be like you buy this piece of ship or else

281
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 2: you gonna die. It's like, hold on like this, that's

282
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 2: not how this transaction work. Car clearly hates you, but

283
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 2: you have to buy it, and it will lie, it

284
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 2: will say the tank is full, it's already. So yeah,

285
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 2: and it's it's really about want. It's about saying like

286
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 2: we deserve better as human beings, and the status quo

287
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 2: is not good enough. So if you're coming with I'm

288
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 2: here to maintain the status quote, guess what. The status

289
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 2: quote is deadly to many people. So that's the thing

290
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 2: I think more people could wrap their head around. It's

291
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 2: not I'm trying. I don't want Trump to win. I

292
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 2: don't want to. But okay, do you want you want

293
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 2: me to get you a mega hut? Yeah?

294
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, when the glass my gosh, Okay, New York Times

295
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 4: op ed writer, that's right, Yeah, but I mean, is

296
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 4: there what do you is there specifically, like what are

297
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 4: you looking at?

298
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 2: And you know what's kind of getting you?

299
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I'm definitely just, I guess pissed off.

300
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 3: Not I guess I definitely am pissed off in this

301
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 3: moment where all of the discourse coming out of what's

302
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 3: happening to Palestinian folks is like that doesn't matter. Just

303
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 3: just listen to the propaganda we're throwing at you. And

304
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 3: it's like, no, people haven't have had real gripes about

305
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 3: everything from student loans to the increased you know, issues

306
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 3: around abortion not be access not being codified into law,

307
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 3: and on and on, and you can't, you especially can't

308
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 3: just tell people don't care about almost like twenty thousand

309
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 3: folks being slaughtered right right with our life, Like that

310
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 3: has to be a deal breaker, right, right, things should

311
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 3: have been.

312
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 2: But it is odd to be like I want to

313
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 2: lead the country. I'm like, Okay, do you have like

314
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 2: a good heart? Like ignore those deaths, right, that's.

315
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 3: Ignore the money that we're throwing at it. That's also

316
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 3: your money.

317
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 2: Right, but don't think about Yeah, And I think and

318
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 2: that's what's like, I think just it's a very interesting

319
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 2: time because the Democrats they're struggling with like trying to

320
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 2: sell Bidenomics, They're struggling with what to do with voters

321
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 2: who are completely unsatisfied, upset about our foreign policy right now,

322
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 2: especially as it relates to Gaza, and you know, like

323
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 2: you're the they have a lot on their plate. But

324
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 2: it feels like the easiest thing, which is so funny,

325
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 2: is you just need to move a little bit away

326
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 2: from the status quo and you will be saying things

327
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 2: that resonate with many people, like if like, for example,

328
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 2: just talking really forcefully about certain things as it relates

329
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 2: to you know, codifying Roe v. Wade, or actual tangible

330
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 2: reforms to how we do policing in this country, or

331
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 2: tangible reforms to our social safety programs, like those are

332
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 2: the kinds of things that people really pay attention to

333
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 2: or they experience every day, rather than like you know,

334
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 2: like how wages are getting compressed or whatever macroeconomic terms

335
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 2: are being thrown around at people and then being told, oh,

336
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 2: so you want Trump to win. You don't like Bidenomics,

337
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 2: Like no, I'm people are struggling and they want to

338
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,160
Speaker 2: find a way that feels like they aren't anymore.

339
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: And the fact that they're doing it so much as

340
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 1: a oh you like, you know, you want Trump to

341
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 1: win is essentially the whole strategy, and therefore like we

342
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 1: don't have to give you these things that you need

343
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: that you've been asking for, that we could give you

344
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: in many cases, right is it's just so cynical, and

345
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,880
Speaker 1: it assumes that people don't notice that that's what they're doing,

346
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: you know, right, yeah, And.

347
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 3: We've been hearing that the last three presidential elections, Oh

348
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 3: you want trumple in? I mean, even with the critiques

349
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 3: of Hillary in twenty sixteen, right, you know, or of

350
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 3: course in twenty twenty, and then now it's like y'all

351
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 3: got to get some new folks up in the megs, like,

352
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,439
Speaker 3: let's get some new messages going because this is not working.

353
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's wild that they still think they can keep

354
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 2: playing people for votes and not deliver and then like

355
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 2: when it doesn't work, then start turning up on people like, oh,

356
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,959
Speaker 2: so you want the opposite. It's like, excuse me, Uh,

357
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 2: can I run back the tape of the things you

358
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 2: said the last election campaign and how you went almost

359
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 2: one to eighty on a lot of that stuff.

360
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about my hands are tied man,

361
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 1: and I president of the United States.

362
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 2: And that's what can I do. And it's true, right,

363
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 2: there are instances where the president can't just push those

364
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 2: things through, and so you have like this very you

365
00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 2: have this kind of vague middle ground to be like, well,

366
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 2: you know, I tried, but also like I can't. But

367
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 2: also I'm kind of saying I can't. It's it's yeah,

368
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 2: it's it's confusing, and it's frustrating, and people are like

369
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 2: looking at real like, you know, people need real help.

370
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 2: And if if it doesn't feel like it's coming, how

371
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 2: are we gonna get excited about a candidate? Yeah, Yeah,

372
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 2: it's gonna be real.

373
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a fun twenty twenty four.

374
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 1: Oh my god, to just the people literally bullshit, Yeah,

375
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,119
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a very exhausting time. What is

376
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,640
Speaker 1: something Raquel that you think is underrated?

377
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,119
Speaker 2: That show Rap Shit? Do y'all watch that?

378
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 6: Oh?

379
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 2: Is that the Ratio?

380
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 3: The Race show on Max? I wish it got as

381
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 3: much attention as Insecurity, But I love rap Shehit, and

382
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 3: I love that it follows these two girls who are

383
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 3: basically modeled after the City girls, and there's like one

384
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 3: girl who like is like, you know, she's really got

385
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 3: the flow, and then the other girl is like the

386
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,439
Speaker 3: hype person, right, but they're kind of reverse from Jays

387
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 3: and Kresha, which I think is cool too.

388
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 2: But I love the show. I think it's just it's dope,

389
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 2: and I just wish more people talked about this, yeah,

390
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 2: because it's in it's what second. I remember watching the

391
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,640
Speaker 2: first couple episodes of the first season and like really

392
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 2: liking it. But I'm so bad at like finishing shows

393
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 2: because there's so many shows that come out and I'm like,

394
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 2: that's right, rap, shit, that's right these other shows. And

395
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 2: the second season has been really good too.

396
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean, why don't you support black women

397
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 3: for the long?

398
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 2: Oh wow, put me off with me in that hot seat?

399
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 2: No way, not today, No, I'm just with you. No.

400
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 2: But it's been good.

401
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 3: It's I think it's dope to just kind of watch

402
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 3: it and I don't know, and I think I would

403
00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 3: like to see more of a comment area on the

404
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 3: Wrap ecosystem for like women right right now. Yeah, of course,

405
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 3: NICKI just dropped Pink Friday too, and so I'm curious

406
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 3: what a character based off of Nicki would look like

407
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 3: in that context too.

408
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, and are they prepared for Nicky's response to being

409
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 2: portrayed as a character. That's the thing, right, Yeah, NICKI

410
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 2: is a character, right, I mean it's just like one

411
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 2: of those I mean, I feel like we're always saying this,

412
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 2: especially about like black lead shows, is the marketing is

413
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 2: always just like what where's the where the billboards? Where

414
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 2: are the advertisements? Because like half the time it's like

415
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 2: all through you know, like social networking or whatever that

416
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 2: you're hearing about shows and rather than like the traditional

417
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 2: we're gonna smash this message into your head with like

418
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 2: NonStop advertisements on YouTube, on like websites or whatever. Yeah.

419
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, the only one that's that has got the full

420
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 3: push behind it is Avid Elementary, right, Like that's the

421
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 3: only one. I felt like in recent years that's just

422
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 3: like people have been like we're going to elevate this

423
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 3: and exhaust this, and like they're getting awards. I got

424
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 3: to meet Sheryl Lee Ralph a few months.

425
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 2: Ago, and she was sold out. She seems like the

426
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 2: kind of person when she seems like she's the same

427
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,119
Speaker 2: person that you see like on screen, but like a

428
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 2: human version in real life too. Is that kind of

429
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 2: the p energy. Yeah.

430
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 3: I mean she's just like encouraging Auntie and just like

431
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 3: with the shits and everything.

432
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like that show was such a hit

433
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 1: that like they couldn't fucking they couldn't not market it

434
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: and like put it out in front.

435
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 2: But yeah, rap shit.

436
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:49,199
Speaker 1: I remember seeing the preview at the end of insecurity,

437
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: like they were they were like, and this is the

438
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 1: next thing, this is the next thing to watch.

439
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 2: And I saw that one preview.

440
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: I've never heard about it again until just right now.

441
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 2: So okay check this out. Yeah, I fully Yeah.

442
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 3: And then of course, you know, Beyonce is very underrated,

443
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 3: So do you see the movie?

444
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 2: Of course I was.

445
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 3: It was great, fabulous.

446
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 2: I enjoyed it.

447
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 3: I enjoyed the process of like seeing her create it,

448
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 3: and I mean just the way that they kind of

449
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 3: take you through the show and then she she does

450
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 3: include some moments of imperfection, you know, but it's still Beyonce,

451
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,640
Speaker 3: so it's still like perfect imperfection, right right right. It's like, yes,

452
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 3: all the sounds, all the sound went off in the

453
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 3: in the studio or in the stadium when you are

454
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,360
Speaker 3: in it, but you also just still look flawless.

455
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 7: And hit every mark so right, still made it work.

456
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, wow, So that was encouraging as Beyonce. As

457
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 7: the Virgo does, as the Virgo dies.

458
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,239
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break and we'll come

459
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 1: back and hit some news story. We'll be right back,

460
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: and we're back, And there's a lawsuit that was getting

461
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: intention in Texas over their horrifying abortion laws.

462
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 2: Yeah. Real, insidious, fucked up, confusing, cruel, every I mean,

463
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 2: whatever word you want to use. So this woman, Kate Cox,

464
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 2: had the misfortune of being alive in Texas basically at

465
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 2: a time where the laws are draconian and confusing, except

466
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 2: for the fact that they're basically intended to punish people

467
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 2: for exercising any kind of bodily autonomy. And you know,

468
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 2: she's had two children with her husband, and then tragically,

469
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 2: her most recent pregnancy was complicated with this diagnosis of

470
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 2: trisomy eighteen, which is an untreatable lethal genetic anomaly. And

471
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 2: so in any humane state, you know, this Kate Cox

472
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 2: would be free to have an abortion and bring an

473
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 2: end to a very painful medical personal saga. But since

474
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 2: she's in Texas, she had to be the first person

475
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 2: since Roe versus Wade in nineteen seventy three to sue

476
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 2: in order to request permission for the procedure, and so

477
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 2: I'm just like the rest of the story kind of

478
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 2: plays like this, because there's like a lot of back

479
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 2: and forth where we end up with just like it's

480
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 2: just you're like, what the fuck is going on? So

481
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 2: she sued, and the Travis County District Judge Maya Gara

482
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 2: Gamble issued a temporary restraining order on the grounds that

483
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 2: Cox's life was in fact her life and ability to

484
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,160
Speaker 2: have children were at risk. So she was like, Okay,

485
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm issuing this temporary restraining order. Hours later,

486
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 2: the legendary piece of crap ag Ken Paxton gets involved.

487
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 2: I don't know how he's still in office, like with

488
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 2: all these investigations and his shit. Anyway, he gets involved

489
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,199
Speaker 2: and claims that Cox actually acted illegally under Texas law

490
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 2: and warned the hospitals and doctors involved with her care

491
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 2: that they would be opened a felony prosecution. So they're like,

492
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 2: oh shit, Okay. Then, so at that point Cox said

493
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 2: I'm off this. She flees the state to go have

494
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 2: the abortion because she wasn't willing to wait for the

495
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 2: courts to decide her basically her fate, And while this

496
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 2: was happening, Paxton then petitioned the state Supreme Court and

497
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 2: they a few days later, the Supreme Court overturned the

498
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,679
Speaker 2: lower court's decision. And this is the really fucked up part, right.

499
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 2: They overturned the decision not because they don't think she

500
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,239
Speaker 2: needs the care, but because their sort of cheatment is, well,

501
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 2: she just messed up by trying to sue her way

502
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,880
Speaker 2: into an abortion. They said, quote, a woman who meets

503
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 2: the medical necessity exception need not seek a court order

504
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 2: to obtain an abortion. Under the law, it is a

505
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 2: doctor who must decide that a woman is suffering from

506
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 2: a life threatening condition during pregnancy, raising the necessity for

507
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 2: an abortion to save her life or to prevent impairment

508
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 2: of a major bodily function. The law leaves it. The

509
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 2: law leaves to physicians, not judges, both the discretion and

510
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,239
Speaker 2: the responsibility to exercise there. This is the key phrase here,

511
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 2: reasonable medical judgment, right, given the unique facts and circumstances

512
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,120
Speaker 2: of each patient. So they're saying, hey, we're not trying

513
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 2: to meddle in a doctor's decision. Are you look like

514
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 2: the bad guy? Here, what's your fucking problem? Now you're

515
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 2: making me angry? Oh my, well, now I don't know

516
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 2: what to do. Now now I'm teed off. Because really,

517
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:25,120
Speaker 2: as long as the doctor is using their reasonable medical judgment,

518
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 2: like then everything is all good. It almost makes you

519
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 2: feel like it's a good thing. But the term is

520
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 2: so problematically vague. It's essentially like daring doctors to perform

521
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 2: an abortion, since a judge technically can't give permission or

522
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 2: give guarantees to a doctor or hospital that they will

523
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,720
Speaker 2: not be like, there will not be legal penalties for this.

524
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 2: But that way, the doctors could very easily go from

525
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 2: fucking around and entering the find out phase if a

526
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:56,400
Speaker 2: prosecutor just feels the urge to pursue charges. So it's

527
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 2: like this very very like it's just such a cat

528
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 2: twenty two of cruelty that, yeah, this is all happening

529
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 2: against this backdrop. Luckily, from what we've heard, she's had

530
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,440
Speaker 2: her procedure, she's recovering, and it's just unfortunate that she,

531
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 2: you know, had to go all through all of this

532
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 2: just for the court to come background and be like, well, actually,

533
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 2: I don't know if you actually have any to say

534
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 2: so and what to do with your own body.

535
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: I told them to go ahead and make my day.

536
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 1: There was a very friendly thing for me to do

537
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: when I said that, you know, ignoring the fact that

538
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: I was holding a giant gun on.

539
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:35,120
Speaker 3: Them is basically yeah, yeah, I mean, it's I mean,

540
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 3: it's so disgusting the the fights from conservatives to keep

541
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 3: people from owning what happens to their body. And even

542
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 3: with the evidence that there are life threatening situations where

543
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 3: this is necessary care like abortion access is necessary. Yeah,

544
00:28:56,280 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 3: they're still so callous in their attacks on folks, and

545
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 3: it's just annoying. I mean. And these are also the

546
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 3: same folks, especially in Texas, that are saying, you know,

547
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 3: trans function have access to healthcare that impacts our lives,

548
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 3: right right that I mean Ken Paxson is one of

549
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 3: the same officials that basically called for investigating families that

550
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 3: are affirming of trans youth.

551
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 2: Right. So, these folks are disgusting.

552
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 3: But I think these moments are opportunities for us to

553
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 3: understand how so many of these attacks are intersect with

554
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 3: each other absolutely, you know, and those down ballid races.

555
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 3: I know, we were harping on the presidential part of

556
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 3: the elections coming up, But these down ballid races really matter,

557
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 3: especially in these states, these battleground.

558
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 2: States, because yeah, like for I'm sure a lot of

559
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 2: politicians too, it's like they're running in like maybe a

560
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 2: purple district, don't want to be forceful about talking about

561
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 2: reaffirming body autonomy for whether that's for people seeking abortions

562
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 2: or gender affirming care whatever. They don't want to they

563
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 2: don't want to wade into that, and they don't say

564
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 2: anything or say like they don't want to touch an

565
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 2: issue like that. But when we don't have people advocating

566
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 2: for these rights, it's these kinds of like you have

567
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 2: to think that these are the realities that lived outcomes

568
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 2: for people when we don't have our representatives advocating for

569
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 2: all of us to make sure that we're saying, well,

570
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 2: here's a baseline of care that we have to establish

571
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 2: for every person, or these are the basic human rights

572
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 2: that you have. And so when you don't say things

573
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,239
Speaker 2: like that to me, I'm hearing you don't care if

574
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 2: people lose their lives, or you don't care if people

575
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 2: aren't able to live their life in the way that

576
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 2: gives them the most peace and most happiness. And the

577
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 2: most fulfilling and yeah, like I think that's where some

578
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 2: people it's easy to maybe brush aside sort of issues

579
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 2: like this, but it they translate into real life tragedy,

580
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 2: like tragic stories like this where a woman is like

581
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 2: asking a court if like she can save her own

582
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 2: life and they're like, well, yeah, I mean, but you

583
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 2: didn't ask the right way. Yeah, but I guess, and

584
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 2: then they have to go. In one of the articles,

585
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 2: it is wow to hear how it was described as

586
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 2: she had to go to a free state to get

587
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 2: an abortion, and I'm like, whoa, my god, we're using

588
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 2: this kind of language again. Okay, okay, so why did

589
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 2: you go to why did you go to the courts?

590
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 2: You're acting hysterically, You're right, what are you doing? Just

591
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 2: talk to your doctor, who we will sue and put

592
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 2: in prison. It's the doctor who is the one that

593
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 2: will determine it, not the legislators who created these laws

594
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 2: like made it illegal. What are you talking with You're

595
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 2: just being You're you're being crazy. Yeah, that's what that's

596
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 2: what it feels.

597
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 1: That's his energy is there will there be a wave

598
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 1: of these people like getting kicked out of office, like

599
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: what once because because it is like bodily autonomy is

600
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: such a pop like a winning political issue. Yeah, like

601
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 1: are well, when is this motherfucker back up for you know,

602
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: to like it feels like a with an easy thing

603
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 1: for the Democratic the Democrats to win on. Now obviously

604
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: they're able to fuck up an easy election like it's

605
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: their job, but does.

606
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 2: Feel like I don't know, hopefully there will be these

607
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,720
Speaker 2: people will be swept out of office, like as it

608
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 2: becomes as their record on like restricting body autonomy, yeah,

609
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 2: come reaches the ballot. It's a tough one. I feel

610
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 2: like on some cases, when you have something like a

611
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 2: ballot proposition or something that changes like the state's constitution,

612
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 2: it's easy for everybody to be like yeah, yeah, yeah, fine, fine.

613
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 2: But then I think because you know, in those instances,

614
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 2: you definitely have Republicans voting to affirm those kinds of things.

615
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 2: They're like yeah, you know, okay, like we yeah, change

616
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 2: the constitution. But then if it came down to like

617
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 2: a down ballot race, I don't know if that's that

618
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 2: criteria will matter as much if they're kind of like

619
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 2: I don't want to vote for a Democrat, like you know,

620
00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 2: voting for a Democrat versus just voting to say I

621
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 2: believe that the constitution should say that you have a

622
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 2: right to an abortion, you know, And I think that's

623
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 2: where it gets a little tricky for people, and then

624
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 2: you know, the cognitive dissonance kicks in.

625
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and there have been some wins, like

626
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 3: even this year, like in Ohio there.

627
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 2: Was a win adding red state.

628
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, adding the right to abortion and to

629
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 3: their state constitutions. So I mean it's just hard in

630
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 3: those battleground states. I mean from you know, we know

631
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 3: that there were issues tampering with votes and you know,

632
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 3: with some of these machines and everything. Not to give

633
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 3: any credence to the bs that Trump spews, right, but

634
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 3: there is like particularly voter suppression.

635
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 2: That's just openly one of their techicsperience.

636
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 3: Right, but it's overwhelmingly used by them, right, So it's

637
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 3: a projection that it's happening more on the other side.

638
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 2: Absolutely, yeah, yeah, So I mean we have again it

639
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 2: is good. Like I was talking to a friend of

640
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 2: mine who works in like abortion advocacy, and I would say, like,

641
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 2: I it's got to be like bitter sweet, right because

642
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 2: even though like these state legislatures are enacting these laws

643
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,279
Speaker 2: when it comes to a vote, like people are like

644
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,279
Speaker 2: they're they're taking l's every time when it comes to

645
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 2: trying to deny people those rights. And they were just

646
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 2: sort of saying like, yeah, like it's it's nice, but

647
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 2: the fact that we even had to start over is

648
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,440
Speaker 2: just really the hardest fucking part of it all is

649
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 2: because we're truly like we're trying to put fires out

650
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 2: constantly everywhere to try and make sure people aren't, you know,

651
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 2: having to take risks with their own life to exercise

652
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 2: their own human rights. So yeah, yeah, I.

653
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 3: Mean, it's it's just ridiculous. But I mean, I hope

654
00:34:55,640 --> 00:35:00,720
Speaker 3: that people will understand that they're all connected to these issues,

655
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 3: right like everybody is. Destiny is kind of on the

656
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 3: chopping block when any of us can't access to the

657
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 3: healthcare we need.

658
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 1: Absolutely, Yeah, all right, let's take a quick break and

659
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 1: we'll be right back. And we're back, and we're back,

660
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 1: and Ohio, you know, they they strayed from the path.

661
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,880
Speaker 1: They were a red state and they strayed over to

662
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 1: try and be a green state, and they're about to

663
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 1: reap the rewards, about to feel feel the burn of

664
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: the devil's whip.

665
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 2: Something like this.

666
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,479
Speaker 1: That's the worst smell you'll ever That's what the cup

667
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 1: at my Dare program in Dayton, Ohio did. Is he

668
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 1: me smell a weed pipe. That's the worst smell you'll

669
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: ever smell. That smells pretty fucking good, you said, yumy,

670
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 1: Like I don't smoke weed now, but that smells great.

671
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 2: Well, you know, like like we were saying. Right in Ohio,

672
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 2: not only did they codify abortion access to their constitution,

673
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 2: the voters there also they passed a measure legalizing marijuana possession,

674
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 2: growing in sales for anyone over twenty one. And obviously,

675
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 2: you know there's almost like twenty three ish four states

676
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,800
Speaker 2: already that have recreational laws on their books. But you know,

677
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 2: this was a moment for a woman named Aubrey Adams,

678
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:46,919
Speaker 2: the director of the anti weed organization Every Brain Matters Shit,

679
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 2: to go to a the state center had a general

680
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 2: Government committee meeting where they were basically taking public comment,

681
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 2: and she took that moment to let really just warn

682
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 2: everybody that marijuana a bomb is about to go off

683
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 2: in the state if something isn't done, so I will

684
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:06,919
Speaker 2: let Aubrey Atoms take it away.

685
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 6: Ohio voters were fooled into thinking marijuana is less harmful

686
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:17,240
Speaker 6: than alcohol. It's not. One swallow of alcohol can induce

687
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 6: psychotic behaviors.

688
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 3: One one hit.

689
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 6: Can, and two hits from marijuana bong can. That's what

690
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 6: happened to brim Space Shier in Thousand Oaks, California.

691
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,080
Speaker 2: This goes down a list of people who smoked a

692
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,760
Speaker 2: marijuana bong twice and then.

693
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: Like committed crimes well like out of their mind on

694
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 1: marijuana bods.

695
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I.

696
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 1: Would just love comparison of the statistics of people who

697
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,880
Speaker 1: committed crime due to marijuana, the people who committed crime

698
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 1: or drove drunk due to alcohol, and how many lives

699
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,839
Speaker 1: were lost, just in a comparison for people driving twenty

700
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,239
Speaker 1: miles below the speed limit because they're too high.

701
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:10,799
Speaker 2: Just people, I mean loosely right, Excessive drinking causes more

702
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 2: than one hundred and forty thousand deaths per year in

703
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 2: the United State States, you know what I mean? And

704
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,760
Speaker 2: I think, while yes, there are there there is something

705
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 2: like the evidence that high doses of THC could leak

706
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:26,759
Speaker 2: cause temporary episodes that is far from being like the norm. Yeah,

707
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,279
Speaker 2: And also you know, I think it is commendable to

708
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,439
Speaker 2: care about the impact that this may have on youth

709
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 2: or whatever, because clearly, like kids are getting into edibles

710
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,359
Speaker 2: a lot more. That's like the one statistic that does

711
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 2: go up when like there is legalizations, Like kids are

712
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 2: finding adults edibles and then getting fucking ripped off of

713
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 2: them and then go to the hospital and shit like that.

714
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 2: I think that is something absolutely that you can put

715
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:50,800
Speaker 2: your attention on. But this whole thing, this feel like

716
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 2: this like round of fear mongering to me, doesn't really

717
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,839
Speaker 2: feel like we're trying to keep kids away, but here

718
00:38:57,880 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 2: trying to feel feels a little bit like we're trying

719
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,320
Speaker 2: to maintain the status quo where weed is a drug

720
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 2: and then a drug that you know mostly sees black

721
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,359
Speaker 2: and brown people put in jail. I mean her her

722
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,920
Speaker 2: organization is called Every Brain Matters, So it feels like

723
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,479
Speaker 2: some All Brain Matters. It feels like some all lives

724
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 2: matter type shit for demonizing weeds and like oh no, no,

725
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 2: no no. But the website has a cool T shirt

726
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:24,759
Speaker 2: that says even zombies like healthy brains. Doesn't she go

727
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:25,319
Speaker 2: on to be.

728
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,240
Speaker 1: Like two hits or maybe it was in that quote

729
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 1: two hits off a marijuana bong can do that, and she.

730
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,320
Speaker 2: Goes on to she elaborates about someone who took to

731
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 2: more than two hits off a marijuana bomb.

732
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:42,399
Speaker 1: Yes, and then I will say the closest I've ever

733
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:46,879
Speaker 1: felt to any sort of like you know, being out

734
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 1: of control of my own mental capacities was being too

735
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 1: high and it lasted for a couple hours, and I

736
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,279
Speaker 1: learned not to get too high anymore. And granted, like

737
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 1: I I think there are you know, for kids, it

738
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,919
Speaker 1: can be really fucked up, and you know, some people

739
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 1: who have pre existing conditions, it can be bad for them.

740
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 1: I would say the same thing is true of like

741
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 1: getting drunk, you know, right. So it just in comparing

742
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 1: these two things, I feel like in my experience when

743
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,800
Speaker 1: I got too high, I wanted to disappear completely and

744
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 1: did my best to do that and just like go

745
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 1: in a room by myself and freak out about what

746
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 1: people were saying about me. And then when I drank

747
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:35,800
Speaker 1: too much, I was a menace to myself and others.

748
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 1: So it's just interesting that this is what she has

749
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 1: chosen to attack, and that she specifically raised alcohol as

750
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:44,399
Speaker 1: a thing.

751
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:49,320
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I just I feel like the us, like

752
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 3: we just have a horrible way of like talking about

753
00:40:55,680 --> 00:41:01,720
Speaker 3: nuance and just in general, Like when I think about

754
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 3: being a young kid and you know, there was like

755
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:09,400
Speaker 3: dare and like all that stuff. It's like the idea

756
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:13,800
Speaker 3: that there's this binary of indulging or not indulging, like

757
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:19,719
Speaker 3: indulging too much and not indulging. It doesn't really reflect

758
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:23,239
Speaker 3: the real lives of people. Like if we have like

759
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 3: this healthier understanding of like you're probably gonna drink, you know,

760
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:32,320
Speaker 3: like in other countries where the drinking age doesn't have

761
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:37,479
Speaker 3: to be like ninety for like folks to understand maybe

762
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 3: what their relationship should be. And I don't know those statistics,

763
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 3: so I'm not an expert in that, but I just

764
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:46,800
Speaker 3: feel like we just got to be realistic with young folks,

765
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 3: like you're probably gonna drink. This is what makes sense, right.

766
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:53,800
Speaker 3: You got to listen to your body, figure out what

767
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 3: works for you as you become of age and work

768
00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 3: through it.

769
00:41:58,040 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 2: But the idea that you won't.

770
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,840
Speaker 3: Ever drink or you won't ever smoke, it's just pass.

771
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,719
Speaker 2: It's same thing with like sex education too, is this

772
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 2: sort of yeah, I don't know you better, I'm not

773
00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 2: gonna tell you we're not gonna tell you anything about that.

774
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,920
Speaker 2: And then what's going on with all these like unwanted

775
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,879
Speaker 2: pregnancies or things like that, or people like not being

776
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 2: completely unaware of how safe sex is or what sex is.

777
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 2: Or I remember the other day I was at a

778
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:25,440
Speaker 2: farmer's market and I heard these teens arguing about safe sex,

779
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,359
Speaker 2: and it was the wildest shit I had ever heard

780
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:32,439
Speaker 2: in my life, Like like this one young girl told

781
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 2: other ones. She's like, oh yeah, like pulling out is

782
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 2: like ninety eight percent effective. She said that shit with

783
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 2: a straight face. And my partner her mouth for you to.

784
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 5: You know, we were walking by and we were like

785
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 5: I almost like no, Like I was, I didn't want

786
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:48,800
Speaker 5: to be like, you know, I'm not going to be

787
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,400
Speaker 5: there like the nearly forty year old dude just pulling

788
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 5: up to some teenager like.

789
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 2: Oh, yo yo, who told you that? Who told you that?

790
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,879
Speaker 2: But it was like a moment where like I heard

791
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 2: these like three kids. One was very forceful about and

792
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 2: the other two were like oh really, And I was like,

793
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 2: oh no, y'all, no, this is not it.

794
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 3: This is And it was probably like some guy that

795
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 3: she was messing with that's hold herd that was probably.

796
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,800
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure one hundred percent of

797
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 2: the misinformation about the effectiveness of pulling out comes from

798
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 2: fucking dudes. That's just I think, Yeah, that's I think

799
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 2: that's a universal truth. But I mean, like, yeah, to

800
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,760
Speaker 2: your point, we have such a like this puritanical outlook

801
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 2: on so many things that it all it does is

802
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:34,080
Speaker 2: obscure things for kids or create these like really unhealthy

803
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,200
Speaker 2: relationships to them. Like so if something is like so

804
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,879
Speaker 2: exotic or like been demonized as a kid, and then

805
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 2: you get out of the house, yeah, it's completely different.

806
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,720
Speaker 2: It's completely different because you don't know what you're gonna

807
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:47,360
Speaker 2: do or what you're about to get into if you

808
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 2: come from a place or house that wasn't willing to

809
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:51,320
Speaker 2: discuss things open.

810
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,520
Speaker 3: Right, and like if you do get in trouble, you

811
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:58,320
Speaker 3: do get wasted or super high and you need someone

812
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 3: to pick you up, Like you can't call like your

813
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 3: parents in general, because they're gonna freak out. And it's like, yeah,

814
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:11,560
Speaker 3: maybe if you were just listening and understanding, right, Yeah,

815
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 3: a different story.

816
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I had very like my parents are

817
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 2: very they were very much on like, look, don't fuck

818
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 2: your life. Up, but they're like, we know. My dad

819
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 2: would be like, do not drink a bunch of champagne.

820
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,239
Speaker 2: He's like, the last thing you want to do. It's

821
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 2: like one of the first things he told me, Like,

822
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 2: it's gonna you will be so hungover the first the

823
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:33,280
Speaker 2: very that's.

824
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:35,160
Speaker 1: The best example of the thing I was saying earlier.

825
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 1: That tastes good in your mouth and then in your stomach.

826
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: It's like, whoa boy, what is happening down here?

827
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 2: Yeah? Exactly. Immediate cut to my first fucked up hangover,

828
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,239
Speaker 2: Like drinking high school. I drink like almost like a

829
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 2: three quarters of a bottle of Southern Comfort. Yeah, and

830
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:55,040
Speaker 2: the sugar in that you say, yeah, I was like,

831
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:58,920
Speaker 2: there wasn't on the list or whatever. However, I was willing.

832
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 2: Like my parents, we're also like, please, don't ever feel

833
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 2: like you cannot call us to get you out of

834
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 2: a situation, Like even if you think we're gonna get

835
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 2: mad at you, like, we don't want you to feel

836
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 2: like you have no options. So for that I am

837
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,839
Speaker 2: grateful because they were open enough to be like, look,

838
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:17,120
Speaker 2: we might we might get in your ass afterwards, but

839
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 2: at least give us the chance to maybe take you

840
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,279
Speaker 2: out of a bad situation. I only I never did

841
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 2: it though, never did it because I feared my parents.

842
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 3: Never said that, my my Catholic, devout parents. I almost

843

00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:48,480
Speaker 2: saw about I think super producer on Josie was like this, like,

889
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 2: then send it to all of us future. This is

890
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 2: the future. It very well may be.

891
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: Burger King is marketing a two hundred dollars bun shaped

892
00:47:56,760 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 1: dog bed for humans, partnering with plus pluffyle Plufful company

893
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:06,279
Speaker 1: built on the notion that, yeah, that is a chill name,

894
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:07,240
Speaker 1: isn't it pluffy.

895
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 2: She's back in, She's back in, Oh Plufful, I'm not

896
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 2: back in.

897
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:16,520
Speaker 3: I can I you know, just like, at the risk

898
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:20,719
Speaker 3: of alienating folks, this sounds like peak white culture. I

899
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:22,040
Speaker 3: just want to name that, but.

900
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:23,879
Speaker 2: Oh, you're way off.

901
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 1: Two Canadian university students, after one of them noticed a

902
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,920
Speaker 1: dog comfortably sleeping and a custom made doug that at

903
00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 1: a campus coffee shops not white at all, where like, hey,

904
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 1: that kind of looks comfortable, they were I think business

905
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 1: students are like economic students, and so took their idea

906
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,320
Speaker 1: to Shark Tank and got two hundred thousand dollars for

907
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:53,920
Speaker 1: twenty percent of the company, And then the beds went

908
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 1: viral on TikTok and even before the burger King thing,

909
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:03,279
Speaker 1: CBS called the regular, non burger King version of the bed.

910
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:07,800
Speaker 1: The viral Christmas gift of twenty twenty three. But I

911
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:13,320
Speaker 1: just I think this is I think people want this,

912
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: Like is this.

913
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:18,320
Speaker 3: Like a bean bag? Like is that like a bean bag?

914
00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 3: Or like what happens to futons, you know, like or

915
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:22,399
Speaker 3: day bad.

916
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,799
Speaker 2: Right, they're so easy to roll out of. I guess

917
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:29,880
Speaker 2: this has little sides like a little pouch that you

918
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 2: can just throw up in. Right, you could go full

919
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 2: fetal and no, there's no risk of going out. Do

920
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,360
Speaker 2: you think Jack, this is we want to be we

921
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 2: want to be pets?

922
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 1: I think we I think this is like the beginning

923
00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 1: of something awful that is going to happen to white people.

924
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 1: I think they're I think we are. We want like

925
00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:55,280
Speaker 1: we're gonna start eating like like dog bowls of treats

926
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 1: off of the ground. I think we're going to have

927
00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 1: a human dog walker who comes and takes us to

928
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 1: the park and like runs us around, which is just

929
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:07,839
Speaker 1: like a personal trainer, but like with less pressure. They

930
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 1: don't look like as ripped as a personal trainer. They're

931
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:13,800
Speaker 1: just like someone who's like all right, run back and

932
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 1: forth and like throws a ball that you can chase.

933
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:19,320
Speaker 1: They'll they'll take you around on leisure off depending on

934
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,399
Speaker 1: what you're into. But yeah, just having someone come sit

935
00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,600
Speaker 1: next to you and like pet you in a totally

936
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:25,960
Speaker 1: non sexual way.

937
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 2: Like Drew Barrymore did to Oprah. Did she what did

938
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 2: you see that? No, she was like she was Oprah

939
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 2: was on her show and she was caressing Oprah while

940
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 2: talking to her, and everybody's like, what the fuck is.

941
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 3: Is interesting? I don't There's something about the way that

942
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:50,920
Speaker 3: she reaches out to like build intimacy with folks physically

943
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:54,239
Speaker 3: when she's interviewing them that fills like.

944
00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:56,360
Speaker 2: Robotic.

945
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 3: It's weird, it's I should touch you this point right.

946
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 2: It feels like a like an ai is trying to

947
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:05,280
Speaker 2: pretend it's human.

948
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:08,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, like this is like this is this is her

949
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 3: open I'm available, I can do it. She's like something

950
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 3: that I break her hands.

951
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:18,360
Speaker 2: She's holding her arms with Oprah, like.

952
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 1: How do you do this to the Queen of England?

953
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:29,000
Speaker 1: Because you're doing it to the Queen of the United

954
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 1: States and it's trying to get away. She's like adjusted

955
00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,800
Speaker 1: like get the fuck off of me, please.

956
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:41,400
Speaker 3: This is what I think white women do. And like

957
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,400
Speaker 3: when you're drunk in the restroom.

958
00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 2: And like you're like this en daring or are you

959
00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 2: gonna murder me? Like what are you doing right deep

960
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:52,160
Speaker 2: in your eyes?

961
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:56,719
Speaker 1: I think I think just people are people just want

962
00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:00,160
Speaker 1: Like this came up in one of the story we

963
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,040
Speaker 1: covered about like dating sites and like the some of

964
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 1: the weird things of like get yourself like a high

965
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:08,080
Speaker 1: earning like partner.

966
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,560
Speaker 2: Oh, high value male, high value male, high.

967
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: Value female, like all that bullshit. But like it comes

968
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:18,200
Speaker 1: back to people just want to get any excuse to

969
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 1: get out of the fucking bullshit of day to day

970
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:25,439
Speaker 1: life in America, like having to like you know, work

971
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:30,840
Speaker 1: and deal with you know, work with the threat of dying,

972
00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:35,360
Speaker 1: like and you know, be it not being being unhoused

973
00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:39,360
Speaker 1: like that that's stressful as fuck. Like and that's what

974
00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,799
Speaker 1: life in America is. Is like if oh, you lose

975
00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 1: your job or you have an injury and your health

976
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 1: insurance doesn't cover it, like you're fucked.

977
00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:51,239
Speaker 2: So it's a lot. And like it doesn't surprise me

978
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 2: that people are like, you know, what looks good is

979
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:59,120
Speaker 2: like my dog's life, right, No, because I think, like,

980
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 2: you know, it's not that people want to be like

981
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 2: a quadruped or something and take a shit in a

982
00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:06,880
Speaker 2: park or something. They want the pet lifestyle, like to

983
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 2: your point, like, yeah, look, I'm not trying to yuck

984
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:13,880
Speaker 2: anybody's young, but I think what this really is to

985
00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:17,080
Speaker 2: your point, it's like you want to have the pet lifestyle,

986
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 2: meaning you don't want to you don't like you're not

987
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:22,120
Speaker 2: having to work, no responsibility except to clean yourself, sleep

988
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:24,520
Speaker 2: and eat. Like there are times I remember going out,

989
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:26,839
Speaker 2: like going to work, leaving the house and don't look

990
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:28,960
Speaker 2: at my dog or my cats, just like laying down

991
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 2: all fucking day. And I'm like, oh, y'all think you

992
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,840
Speaker 2: got it made huh Okay, I see you guys. And

993
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,319
Speaker 2: then in my mind, I'm like, but that's balling, that's yeah,

994
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:39,920
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And so I think it's

995
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:43,279
Speaker 2: it's a rejection of the toil, but in a cute,

996
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 2: comfy way. Yeah, but I think, but it's weird because

997
00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:48,840
Speaker 2: it's the most literal version. It's like, you know, we

998
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:50,839
Speaker 2: could maybe try and get a little more active out there,

999
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:52,720
Speaker 2: and we can. I mean, I get it, man, we're

1000
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:54,640
Speaker 2: trying to advocate for ourselves ever we can. And some

1001
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:56,920
Speaker 2: people have just arrived at the dog bed point where

1002
00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 2: they're like I'll just.

1003
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:02,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's their young I think we're just preparing

1004
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:06,439
Speaker 3: for the AI takeover and the robot robot takeover.

1005
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:12,239

1028
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:35,520
Speaker 3: into their lives.

1029
00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:36,400
Speaker 2: And what was it like.

1030
00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 3: Producing that show? I mean, one of the things that

1031
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:45,600
Speaker 3: I've been very interested in is like how we get

1032
00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 3: young folks to tell their stories on their own terms.

1033
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:53,040
Speaker 3: I mean, I was I was listening to All about

1034
00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:57,520
Speaker 3: Love by Bell Hooks because I'm that girl, and not

1035
00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 3: to be extra, but listening to it, and she was

1036
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:08,320
Speaker 3: talking about how like youth in our society really don't

1037
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 3: have full rights, like we don't really see them as

1038
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,959
Speaker 3: full human beings. And I think that that's so true,

1039
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:17,880
Speaker 3: Like we often filter their experiences through our like MOULDI

1040
00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:21,960
Speaker 3: old adult lens, and so especially for Clear and transis

1041
00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:25,239
Speaker 3: like they deserve to speak for themselves, not have conservative

1042
00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 3: politicians who don't have the range trying to talk about

1043
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:35,080
Speaker 3: their experiences and then not having adults be all paternalistic

1044
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:38,120
Speaker 3: and we got to defend and protect you because you

1045
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 3: can't suit for yourself, right, Yeah, yeah, we'll have to.

1046
00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:50,760
Speaker 2: Please. Is there a work of media that you've been enjoying.

1047
00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:56,319
Speaker 3: I have been reading this book called People Collide by

1048
00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 3: Isle McElroy. They're a non binary novelist.

1049
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 2: But they the book is like about this.

1050
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:11,680
Speaker 3: Sis straight couple that some kind of way switches bodies

1051
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 3: and so it's an interesting like novel. I'm like, I'm

1052
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:19,720
Speaker 3: like a third of the way through it, but I'm

1053
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 3: having a good time, so amazing. And then Fortnite of

1054
00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 3: course that counts pay.

1055
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:29,600
Speaker 2: Lego Fortnite or is that like that's that's a little

1056
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 2: too juvenile for you.

1057
00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,560
Speaker 3: I know, I guess that's just there's like a Lego

1058
00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:36,040
Speaker 3: thing going on right now, right right, right.

1059
00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:39,080
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, everybody's trying to get me to Lego Fortnite.

1060
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm terrible at Fortnite, but little no.

1061
00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:44,240
Speaker 3: I mean, I'll give it a chance. But you know,

1062
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:48,440
Speaker 3: I I started playing Fortnite during the Marvel season, so

1063
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:51,240
Speaker 3: I got a little spoiled with all of the character

1064
00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:56,200
Speaker 3: because every season isn't like that or chapter isn't like that.

1065
00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 3: But I guess I'll end up force to play Lego

1066
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 3: Fortnite at some point.

1067
00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:04,800
