Did you 82 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: see a penis candle and you're like, oh, no, I 83 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: can make one. It was just an idea. Sometimes when 84 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: I'm trying to fall asleep. That's usually when I do 85 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,479 Speaker 1: stuff when I when I google things that aren't like 86 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: specifically related to my job, where it'll just be like, 87 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: I wonder, how would you do that. It's like when 88 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: I looked into how to make liquor out of blood, 89 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: Like that's that's what I google, like one thirty in 90 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: the morning when I'm trying to fall asleep, that you 91 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: can make liquor out of blood? Well, no, I was 92 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: just I wanted to know if you could, and I 93 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: found I found a discussion as to have it. I 94 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 1: want to know if you can you can out of 95 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: another human bodily functions. You can absolutely make liquor at 96 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: a poop. You can make liquor out of a lot 97 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 1: of things. Yeah, So hey, gang out there, keep trying, 98 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: keep trying shoot for the moon. So you just like 99 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: I just want to get a shoot for the poon 100 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: that I was trying to make that means something unfortunate incidence. Yeah, 101 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: really just trying to get into your mind, which is 102 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: a terrifying place to be. But you were just drifting off. 103 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: And then a candle shaped like a dick, like a 104 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 1: photo realistic dick. Like, what are we talking about? I 105 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: thought it would be funny to give as a gift 106 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: to like, particularly male friends and colleagues of mine, like 107 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: a candle that's just like my penis, but a candle, 108 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: Oh it's your penis. Yeah, that's what I was looking into. 109 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: You know, what would be involved in that process? Because 110 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: Christmas is just around the corner, um, and I figure 111 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: I should start like figure ringing that out now. And 112 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: I didn't learn much because I fell asleep had some 113 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 1: weird dreams, but I might get back into it. Well, 114 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: this is all fascinating stuff. What is something you think 115 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: is underrated cigarettes? Underrated cigarettes? I think not here first kids, 116 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: not for young people, not for like teens and millennials. 117 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: But I think we should really get the boomers back 118 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: on the cigarette train. Yea, we should really push the 119 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: cigarettes hard on the over forty crowd and just kind 120 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: of clear that out for cigarettes, they're good now, good 121 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: for you now, so that is a population control mechanism. 122 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: You're saying is I'm not about the population, It's more 123 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: about the next couple of elections, right right, Yeah, and 124 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: then it's fun. But we got to find a hook though, 125 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: if we're really going to get people like they're like, 126 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw this study at all, 127 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: I think we really drive. Wow, now we can't drive 128 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: because the ones that really needed don't believe in climate change. 129 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: This is tough. It's tough too. It's tough to figure 130 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: out the ad campaign. I feel like I think if 131 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: you said, if every cigarettes smoked brings Hillary Clinton closer 132 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: to death than people would smokes, an extra hundred and 133 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: fifty million cigarettes will indict Hillary Clinton. That's how we 134 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: fucking do it. Okay, I think we know how to 135 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: save this country. Guys. Yeah. If any generation is just 136 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: going to hang around way too long at the party, though, 137 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: I do think it's going to be the boomers, And 138 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: they've already puked on the floor, right if they didn't 139 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: clean it up or leave. I guess the seventies they 140 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: were all right. They got a good start. In the sixties. 141 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 1: There's a whole thing of like how grandparents were sort 142 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: of the boomer and slightly older generation the greatest generation 143 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: like that because a lot of people are not like 144 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 1: a lot of grandparents are having to enter childcare. That 145 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: it's like that's this other force that's completely hollowing out 146 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: retirement for for baby boomers and stuff. So yeah, well 147 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: a lot of people having to step in because sometimes 148 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: the parents. Man. Yeah, when you research a lot of 149 00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 1: us to do with the opioid epidemic. Actually they say 150 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: that the millennials are actually closest to Greatest generation, like 151 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 1: in terms of just like being total ballers. Yeah, no, 152 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: just in terms of being more civic minded and like 153 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: socially minded. I remember when I wanted to walk with 154 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: some Nazis. Yeah, storms, what is something you think is overrated? 155 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 1: This ties into that video we were talking about the 156 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: TV news. I think it's a bad idea. I've come 157 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,199 Speaker 1: to the conclusion that like, maybe there's no benefit to 158 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: daily TV news. Maybe it's it's or more toxic to 159 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: just like our national discourse and the whole country. Maybe 160 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: it's almost impossible to liver like like reasonable, well thought out, 161 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,719 Speaker 1: accurate information in the format that TV news currently exists within. 162 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: What is it about TV? Because This is something like 163 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: I've seen really talented people have to like be forced 164 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: into a TV format and it's like they just like 165 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: funk it up something like they just make them worse 166 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 1: versions of themselves, like I've see. It's just like something 167 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: about TV that really doesn't work except for the Simpsons. Yeah, 168 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 1: it's the strict time constraints. I think that's part of it. 169 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: I think it's partly the ad supported thing, although you 170 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: know you have that with newspapers too. I think it's 171 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 1: like just the amount that they try to cover so 172 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 1: you can't like some subjects, like you're talking about the 173 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: fucking Syrian Civil War, there's nothing useful you can deliver 174 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: to people in thirty seconds, which is what you're going 175 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: to have. It's also this conventional wisdom that took over 176 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 1: that was just like no, you got yeah, you gotta 177 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: keep their eyes and brains buzzing, like with new changes 178 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: in bright flashing ship seconds. Wasn't that anecdote about Bill 179 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: Shine when he was working at Fox was just like 180 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: there was a fire at a building and he just 181 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: made all the coverage just about the fire and like 182 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: just show the fire to show that they want them out. 183 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: It's because it's really not about informing people, just about 184 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: how do you tap into their fears or yeah it's yeah, 185 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: it's one of those things like the fucking Momo thing 186 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: that like came like that was like a big TV 187 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: news thing. I don't think if like it was all 188 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: newspapers and online articles and stuff like, yeah, there would 189 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: have been some sensational bullshit, but like none of like 190 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: the legacy, like the legacy TV media ran with that 191 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: to an extent, like the New York Times. Any reporter 192 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: who's worth a salt who starts looking at that, it's 193 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: going to learn like twenty seconds, Oh this is nothing, right, Okay, 194 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: well that's the story that this is nothing. Yeah. I mean, 195 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: I think from a cultural perspective, Momo was interesting because 196 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: it was a monster face that you got to put 197 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: on something that really is out there and terrible, which 198 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: is like the children's entertainment on the internet is really fucked, 199 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: And so they were just like, yeah, oh that was 200 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: the thing that was allegedly a video that was convincing 201 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: kids to like murder their families, which is a thing 202 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: that people on YouTube have tried to do. It just 203 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: wasn't real with like Momo and nothing it wasn't a 204 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: weird Japanese art piece, nobody had been hurt or killed 205 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: or anything. But there is just not just heaps and 206 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:02,559 Speaker 1: heaps of garbage that no exactly how to hypnotize two 207 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: year old and their parents are just like, yeah, here 208 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: you go, here's the smartphone. Yeah. That feeds into my 209 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: issue more than just TV news. It's just like the 210 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: amount of poison that people ingest via their eyes that 211 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: we're all just like, yeah, this is just the way 212 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:20,479 Speaker 1: it is. Yeah, how else could it be? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, okay, Yeah, 213 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: your brain diet. We've talked before. We've we've talked before 214 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: about how like people think about their diet a little 215 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: bit more constructively now, but we should also be thinking 216 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: about our media diet. Yeah. I didn't think about like, yeah, 217 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: because I watched a lot of trash shows and I 218 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: realized too, like I'm mainlining just a lot of vapid conflict, 219 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: Like on its surface, the energy that's coming off the 220 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: screen is just negative. Yeah. That's why I was, like, 221 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,839 Speaker 1: I was having starting to triage my garbage TV, and 222 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 1: I'm like I can't just keep giving it that, like 223 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: I have to balance it out with something because I 224 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 1: realized that I'm actually in the midst of an experiment 225 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: to see, like if I just only keep it to messes, Okay, 226 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: I like messy drama on a reality show, but ship 227 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: where just like people being like this person sucking sucks 228 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,719 Speaker 1: and like that ship. I realized I'm like the more 229 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: I watched that subtly, I mean not that like I'm 230 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: I think I'm more stupid for only figuring this out 231 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 1: now or just sort of being aware of it. How 232 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: much that sort of can affect my mood a little bit, 233 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: even on a very subconscious level, even though I'm not 234 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: like fully buying into what I'm seeing, It's just that 235 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: that's what I'm giving myself. So you know, that's what 236 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 1: stood up. Then I watch you know, Bumpets and Ship. Yeah, 237 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 1: now I only watch Mr Rogers Neighbor Got to It 238 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: feels relaxing. Yeah, you know, but there's what you're giving yourself, 239 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, Like I I've noticed there are certain 240 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: podcasts that if I watch, I feel like you listen 241 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: to him? Uh No, I watched the Wow Just watch 242 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: the cursor sixth cents over here. There are certain podcasts 243 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: that if I listened to them, I will feel like 244 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: garbage after it's just yeah, it's the same thing as 245 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 1: fast food. It's just like you have to pay attention 246 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: to how different things you're putting into your brain like 247 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: you feel and like affect you. Because I went on 248 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: a streak of watching old Dateline episodes on YouTube like 249 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: like two years ago. It was all I was watching 250 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: for like like maybe three week period because I was 251 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: just like, yes, bro, more more. It had me fucking 252 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: all kinds of fun. Like I became a little more 253 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: susceptible to paranoia or just like or my confirmation bias 254 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: was a little more centered around like the really dark 255 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: ship and I was like, oh, yeah, because I'm just 256 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: eating that's what I'm eating. Yeah, I can say, like 257 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: people ask me all the time because behind the bastards, 258 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: I'm always reading about like terrible people, Like doesn't that 259 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: funk you up? And I joke about like yeah, so 260 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: I do a bunch of drugs. But the reality is 261 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: that like reading a good book about like a guy 262 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: like Hitler or a guy like Stalin or one of 263 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: these terrible people, that doesn't put me in a bad place. 264 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: If it's really good work, like it's it's it's edifying 265 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: you learn something, I feel better after it. I feel 266 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: bad on Twitter right in YouTube and stuff like those 267 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: make me feel like shit. Like nothing has convinced me 268 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: to go buy more guns than like bad Twitter benches 269 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: where I'm like, oh my god, everything's falling apart right 270 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: right right, And that is sort of your vice or 271 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: one of your that is definitely one. No gun buying, 272 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: I mean, shooting is a relatively healthy hobby. Consider it 273 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: like it's it's like a technical skill. You get out 274 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: of the house, you do something. Um, gun buying is 275 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: debatably healthy, but like the actual act of getting better 276 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: at a physical task, I think he's usually a good thing. 277 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: But the fact that like your backyard looks like that 278 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: bunker from terminator to that the people have been building up, 279 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: well you ready for the coming of They haven't found 280 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: the mailman. So technically no one can connect that to 281 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: anything I may or may not have fired on in 282 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: the night. Uh you know, there you go. I have 283 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: no idea what you're talking about. But what is a myth? 284 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: What something people think it's true? You know to be 285 00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: false that you just have to let the cops arrest people. 286 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: You're about the story from Chicago were like to Chicago 287 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: PD officers wore trying to arrest this guy for drugs, 288 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: and all of his friends came out in the street 289 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: and forced them to let him out and give him 290 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: back his drugs.

How is that not murder? I don't know. 389 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: But like when the vice president of when they asked 390 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 1: when they asked the vice president of product that Sonic 391 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: about it, he was like, I don't know why we 392 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: would do a salad, but we can do some tots. 393 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 1: And it's like, yeah, but I guess that's the thing 394 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: because prior to people you know, becoming we're fucking cholesterol 395 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: or sodium and ship fast food was a race to 396 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: the bottom, like who can make the wackiest fucking food, 397 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: who can fit the most foods in the smallest prey area. 398 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: And I think that's sort of on one side of it, 399 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: you have health conscious people, but then there are people 400 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: who are out here who absolutely love or why don't 401 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: you try, like me, the grossest stuff because that's the 402 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: fun and fest. It's it's for the rolling cold demographic, 403 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 1: the people who like modify their cars to put out 404 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: extra smog. That's that was my first job with Sonic, 405 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: at least I was there for a week before I 406 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: got a job at Barnes and Noble, and I never 407 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 1: even picked up my paycheck, Like it was so bad. 408 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: Sonic went to Barnes and Noble and you were one 409 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 1: of the roller skating waiters, right, No, no, I was 410 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: one of the commercials inside guys, it was it. Yeah, 411 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,199 Speaker 1: just because working in fast food in general, Yeah, I 412 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: think it might be particularly bad. But in terms of 413 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: the quality of food or think transgressions you witnessed, it 414 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: was just inside of a sonic. You can't trick yourself 415 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: into thinking it's not poison because the smell is very 416 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: clearly poison Like the inside of a sonic smells like death, 417 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: like from aaldehyde. It smells like the inside of a sonic, 418 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: like active war zone smell less toxic, and you know 419 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: you've spent some time in the active war zone. I 420 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: prefer that sense you. Also, just briefly, Taco Bell is 421 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: testing out a truro doughnut that looks kind of delicious. 422 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: That's a great idea. That's a great idea. That's just 423 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: a palate cleanser for us going into the break because 424 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: I have something that we want to eat. I'll even 425 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: eat those cinnamon twists.

Yeah, 427 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: no shade on Taco Bell. And you know what, in 428 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 1: a way, that's what I'm saying. I'm kind of take 429 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: my hat off to Sonic because they know there's a 430 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: group of people who are willing to go there, and 431 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: they're in Sonic is for those people. Yeah, unless they 432 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 1: want to give us a lot of money, in which 433 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: case Sonic is for everyone, is for the people. Alright, 434 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna take a quick break.

Yes, uh, we mentioned the 449 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 1: Betsy Divos thing. But in addition to defunding special Olympics, 450 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: she also was testifying about her theory that fewer teachers 451 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: and bigger classes are actually a good thing. Yeah, because 452 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: all her budget, they're like, you're cutting so much money, 453 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: Like what, how do you explain this? And she was saying, 454 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 1: you know, like in her written testimony before she went 455 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:40,239 Speaker 1: to go basically try and defend her hideous budget. Uh, 456 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: there was a quote from her written testimony said there's 457 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: no evidence that the federal taxpayer investments in existing professional 458 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 1: development programs or class sized reduction have meaningfully improved student outcomes. 459 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 1: And people were like, what, in fact, students may be 460 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: better served by being in larger classes if by hiring 461 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: fewer teachers, a district or state can better compensate those 462 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: who have demonstrated high ability, the and outstanding results. So anyway, 463 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: the chairwoman, I believe astor can you run me through 464 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 1: that again? And then asks for a thing that Republicans 465 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: aren't used to presenting, which is some kind of study 466 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: or facts to back up their assertion. In your testimony, 467 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 1: you stated the following and I quote, students may be 468 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: better served by being in larger classes if by hiring 469 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,640 Speaker 1: fewer teachers, a district or state can better compensate those 470 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: who have demonstrated high quality and outstanding results. Uh, and 471 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 1: U quote. This is contrary to decades of long standing 472 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: credible research, like the student teacher achievement ratio that actually 473 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 1: recommended on average student teacher ratio to be fifteen to one. 474 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: So what evidence based research do you have to back 475 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,360 Speaker 1: your statement? Uh, well, that must be in my written testimony. 476 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: And I would just comment to the fact that given 477 00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: uh you know, given education freedom initiatives, Um, there are 478 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: different kinds of environments in which students learn well. Some 479 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: students can learn better with larger classes, with more students 480 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: to collaborate with to learn with other smaller de site. 481 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 1: What research you're using to make that there's there's plenty 482 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: of research that will under undergird the fact that mandating 483 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: a specific class size doesn't deal results. I would be 484 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: happy to have if you submit a question for the record, 485 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 1: I will be happy to do do so. If you 486 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 1: said that's what she's asking right now, like way to come, 487 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:42,959 Speaker 1: prepare to ask a question again? Eventually I will not 488 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: have it.

But you know 492 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: that the idea that they're going to collaborate with that 493 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: you're like, what your other fucking eight year old friend 494 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: is going to teach you some ship that you didn't 495 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 1: know without the teacher. Yeah, but the teacher will be 496 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: so good and so well paid, but we're also cutting 497 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 1: them if you don't need as much money because we're gosh, 498 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: it's you guys really aren't getting this? How this? Um? Yeah? 499 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 1: I guess the logic is get rid of the shitty teachers, 500 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 1: get the superstar teachers, give them their money, and then 501 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: let them teach seven kids at once, right, Yeah, just 502 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: a big school house. Go back to the days where 503 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 1: it was one teacher and then the entire kids in 504 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 1: one room. Yeah, what you all doing over here? Hear 505 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: me out? Fellas, Oh boy, now that's skyping. Skype exists. 506 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: What if we find the best teacher, we pay them 507 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: a lot of money, and they just teach all the 508 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: kids one teacher, all the students, one teacher to rule them, 509 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: one teacher to rule them all. And then you just 510 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: have little like squadrons of kids who then teach each o. 511 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: You know what, Yeah, I bet si divos or like 512 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: I could be the one teacher because all they need 513 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: to know is that am Wai is a fan tacit 514 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: to make money and this is a great way for 515 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: you to become financially in the credible opportunity. I mean, 516 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: I want to ask you this, ma'am um. You're a mother, right, 517 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: and you probably want to set a great example for 518 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: your daughter. What better way to than show her that's 519 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: your freedom isn't tied to your husband's and you can 520 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: do it with a fraction of the time investment that 521 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: your husband does putting in a forty hour week. I mean, 522 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: that's the type of ship Roberts, right. Kids, kids need 523 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 1: to be learning the important truth about an Amway and 524 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: that nonsense about the Second World War and how authoritarian 525 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: regimes arise and talking about slavery. Don't teach them about 526 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 1: that and not the opportunity is provided by Amway. Would 527 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: like to actually tell you about another form of slavery 528 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: that's being dependent on these other companies for your goods 529 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: when real emancipation proclamation is inside the hundred and fifty 530 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: dollar Amway starters. I like to call the am wastipation 531 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: pers Christ Hey, so yeah, emancipation proclamation. The Civil War, Yeah, 532 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: that was transition. Um, seems like I do want to 533 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: talk about the possibility of a second American Civil War. 534 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: This is the subject of your new podcast that could 535 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 1: happen here, which people can go subscribe to now on 536 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 1: their podcast listening platform of their choosing. But so can 537 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: you kind of talk I mean, this seems like a 538 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: thing that I'm hearing more and more from, like people 539 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: on both sides of the divide, like talking about Okay, 540 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: I thought it was crazy a couple of years ago, 541 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: and now like I think it's less crazy basically. Um. Yeah, 542 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: And what one of the things that jumped out to 543 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: me in the first episode is just like some of 544 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: the audio you have of people on the right, Like, 545 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: I don't think people literally calling to murder their political animazing. Yeah, yeah, 546 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: it's it's it's pretty wild. Yeah that's a thing. Yeah, 547 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: so much kind of did it implicitly like a week 548 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: ago when he was saying that like the Bikers for Trump, 549 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: he has the Bikers for Trump and the military, and 550 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: if they pushed too far, they're gonna it's gonna be very, very, 551 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 1: very bad. And there's just a little story behind that. 552 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: When we were going through the drafts of the first episode, 553 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 1: I didn't initially have a lot in there about the 554 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: potential of the president calling on militias and his armed 555 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: supporters in order to keep him in power. And you 556 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 1: were like, you should talk a little bit more about that, 557 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: And I felt awkward writing it because I was like, 558 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: this just seems like a step too far. And then 559 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: he said that, and then he did it. He said 560 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: it was like, oh, well, I guess I guess I 561 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: could just pop this all in. I guess what do 562 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: you say, right to people who are kind of like, Okay, 563 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 1: everything seems very stable, now, what is the road map 564 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: or what are the events that could possibly lead to it? 565 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: Because I think the whole point of your show, right, 566 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 1: like the idea of that it could happen here is 567 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: that as Americans, we tend to think of civil wars 568 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: and things like that as things that are happening like 569 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: they're developing world or and just I mean, come on, 570 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: it's it's the US. Like you know, people people like 571 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: their shipped too much to try and fight each other 572 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: in the streets. But what are the I guess the 573 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: different versions because I think a lot of people think, 574 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: like is there going to be like coastal versus whatever, 575 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: Like you know, like what are the divisions that you see? 576 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 1: It would be a bunch of different small groups popping 577 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: up in different chunks of the country, carrying out attacks 578 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: with the goal of making the country ungovernable, because that's 579 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: how war works. Now, that was essentially before they seized 580 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: a bunch of territory. Um. The sort of book that 581 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: isis is whole fucking thing was based off of that, 582 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 1: like led to the tactics that led to them seizing 583 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: an area larger than England in Syria and Iraq. It's 584 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: a book called The Management of Savagery, and the idea 585 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: is that you don't try to oppose a national military 586 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: by just starting off by trying to raise an army 587 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: and fight it in the field like the South did 588 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: back in eighteen sixty one. You try to render the 589 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 1: country ungovernable so that order breaks down and then you 590 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: can seize control and like that actually works pretty well. 591 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: And I think the United States is in a situation 592 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: where as stable and as much money as we have, 593 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: we also have a lot of ingredients that could lead 594 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: to a really ugly insurgency that could render the country ungovernable. 595 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: Like they try to think about, like how munch of 596 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 1: guys would air fifteens could fight the U. S. Military, 597 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: And like, my answer to that is what a fucking 598 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: Afghanistan and not think about Appalachia. Think about what a 599 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 1: couple of thousand guys who are really committed to fucking 600 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 1: with the government could do just in that one chunk 601 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: of the country, And how hard it would be to 602 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,479 Speaker 1: root them out, how much money it would cost, how 603 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: many civilians would die, What that would do to people's 604 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: faith in the federal government, their ability to trust it, 605 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: Like the repercussions that would have around the country, the 606 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: other groups that would inspire. They just arrested forty neo 607 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 1: Nazis in Florida with a rocket laundry, Like there's groups 608 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: of people who have that, like the the physical infrastructure 609 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,959 Speaker 1: necessary if other people in the country were doing it, 610 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 1: And yeah, I was just gonna say, if people were 611 00:33:56,520 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: talking about white supremacists as like a unitary block the 612 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: way they think about Islamic terrorists, then I feel like 613 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: they would sort of recognize them as a bigger danger 614 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 1: than than they are. But because the American media and 615 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 1: the American brain has a tendency to just be like, oh, 616 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: a white terrorist, well that's one of clearly just a 617 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: random guy that happened, right exactly. It's always treated as 618 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: a as a one off instead of vanilla isis and 619 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: great great term. Wow, oh that's even y'all, Kata Yeah, 620 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 1: um oh, but we're here real quick though. I do 621 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: want to hear because, like you have some quotes in 622 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: here from people who like the right is openly saying 623 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: they will kill liberals if they try to impeach Trump. 624 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 1: And I think we have a clip of that. Yeah, 625 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 1: we have a clip of one of the more extreme 626 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:09,240 Speaker 1: people on the right. Yeah, Alex certain, Mr Alex Joness, 627 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 1: you're trying to start the civil war with people. You're 628 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 1: taking our kindness for weakness. Do you understand the American 629 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 1: people will kill all of you if you want a 630 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: real war A seventeen seventy six. I'm not the one 631 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 1: that's called pro violence you're gonna get wrecked. Bads. I 632 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: don't want a war. I don't need some you know, 633 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: coming of age deal to kill a bunch of liberals. 634 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: I just can't. But I also feel like I'm in 635 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: dereliction of as a citizen of my duty not saying 636 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: we have to start getting ready for insurrection and civil 637 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: war in that instance? What are the sides the diametrically 638 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 1: opposed sides that Alex Jones like, is it liberals that 639 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: he's just thinking people with their MPR bags are gonna 640 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 1: just pull up and try and you know, bore him 641 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 1: to death with. I think he's talking about like the 642 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,240 Speaker 1: potential of like what if they try to impeach President 643 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,760 Speaker 1: Trump or try what if you know, they he voted 644 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:03,879 Speaker 1: out of office and what surely the far right would 645 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 1: consider to be an illegitimate election. You know, I think 646 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 1: one thing even more than Alex Jones, because his popularity 647 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,959 Speaker 1: is a little bit on the wayne, although he still 648 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: speaks to hundreds of thousands of people every month. I 649 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: think one thing you have to really take seriously is 650 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: the growth of the Q and on conspiracy. The journalist 651 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,319 Speaker 1: called Bill ben Collins, who's been covering it pretty heavily 652 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,959 Speaker 1: who just posted pictures from outside of a Trump rally 653 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: where they were like a hundred someon people all in 654 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 1: Q regalia out there. And the easiest thing in the world, 655 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:31,919 Speaker 1: Even more easier than finding Alex Jones talking about wanting 656 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: to kill liberals is finding Q and On fans talking 657 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: about wanting to murder people like wanting because they believe that, 658 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: like everyone against Trump is part of a vast pedophilic 659 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 1: conspiracy that's also like the reason why they're not rich. 660 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: Like it's it's this whole multifaceted weird cult, but like 661 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: it's growing, it's not stopping, it's spreading outside of the 662 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 1: United States. I have friends in London who are talking 663 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,280 Speaker 1: to me about seeing fucking more que stuff at protests, 664 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 1: Like it's this this new kind of cult that like 665 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 1: we haven't really dealt with before, where there's like no 666 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:06,280 Speaker 1: head and no organization, but like these groups of people 667 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: radicalizing each other. I just found my neighborhood papered and 668 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: like Q and On flyers um, Like it's fucking scary um. 669 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: And I will guarantee you all of those people own guns. Yeah, 670 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,400 Speaker 1: well not I think we even I don't know if 671 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 1: we spoke about it. But there was that one Q 672 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:26,439 Speaker 1: and On conspiracy theorist who was really getting frazzled over 673 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 1: the lack of arrests that were happening because they were like, 674 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 1: we were promised like things were going to happen, and 675 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: and her worry was like, if I'm afraid, if these 676 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: arrests don't come, we're gonna have to go and knock 677 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 1: down John Podesta's door. So they think that Robert Mueller 678 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 1: is going to come in and arrest was able to 679 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: definitely these people, and John podest is part of it. 680 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 1: I think that's what they're saying. Like, so she was saying, 681 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: if Robert Muller doesn't start arresting the Clintons and the 682 00:37:56,200 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 1: Obama's and John Podesta not, I will therefore realize my 683 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:05,359 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory is insane. It is I will then have 684 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,959 Speaker 1: to go start killing people myself. It's like that guy 685 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 1: who blocked one of the numerous now terrorists or attempted 686 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: terrorist attacks that almost ended in bloodshed was a guy 687 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: who like parked his armored vehicle on the Hoover Dam 688 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: filled with guns and tried to block off access to 689 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: the Hoover Dam until President Trump unleashed the sealed indictments 690 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 1: he believes exists, and the President retweeted one of these 691 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 1: people a couple of days. It wasn't about a Q 692 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: and on thing, but it was a and it's like 693 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 1: that was on that weekend where you like, he's playing 694 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 1: with buddy. Did you just not notice it? Or are 695 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 1: you fucking playing with something really goddamn dangerous? Like I 696 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 1: don't I don't know what that dude, right. No, I 697 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:47,400 Speaker 1: think he is perfectly willing to like create a huge 698 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 1: civil war sized conflict or like you know, a civil 699 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: insurrection if he thinks it's an existential issue regarding his 700 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: claim to power. And I really think I mean Michael 701 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:07,760 Speaker 1: Cohen during his testimony specifically said he does not think 702 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 1: there's any chance that there will be said, give my 703 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 1: experience working for Mr Trump, I fear that if he 704 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: loses the election in that there will never be a 705 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 1: peaceful transition of power. Yeah, I mean, who knows him 706 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: better than that? And like, I don't know, that's a 707 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 1: thing to be scared of. And it's part of were 708 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: when people like Elizabeth Warren says stuff like I don't 709 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 1: know even know if will be a freeman because it's 710 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: like like fucking Nixon, I'm sure he deserves to be 711 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: in prison, but like that's why we don't do that 712 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: in this country. We don't. We don't jail or even 713 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: when they commit crimes. And like you can argue that 714 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 1: maybe we ought to, but also like part of why 715 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,399 Speaker 1: we don't is because that's why we've had so many 716 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,279 Speaker 1: peaceful transitions of power, because we know we're not going 717 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:51,960 Speaker 1: to go after you even if you do commit a 718 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 1: bunch of war crimes. Like that's just and like it's 719 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 1: fucked up, but maybe maybe it's better than having all 720 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 1: the civil wars that the Romans he us to have 721 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: when they would do ship like that. Like I I 722 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 1: don't know, but there's an argument to be made. And 723 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: like I think everyone, like right now, we're all hanging 724 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 1: out and like a warehouse filled with gasoline soaked rags, 725 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: and everybody's playing with matches and yelling at everybody else 726 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 1: we're playing. Stop playing with matches, as they like, as 727 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: they together, Hey, you stop it, right, So yeah, and 728 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,880 Speaker 1: you get into a lot more detail, and like you 729 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,439 Speaker 1: know what the various versions of a civil war could 730 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: look like in America, because it wouldn't look like you've 731 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: spent time in active war zones in other countries, and 732 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't look like one side versus the other, right, No, 733 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: I mean mostly it just looks like a bunch of 734 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:43,719 Speaker 1: people trying to go about their day and sometimes things explodes. Explodes, yeah, 735 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 1: and like or that, you're just there's always shooting going 736 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 1: on nearby, and you're just like, well, it's been pretty 737 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: nice in my neighborhood for a while. I hope that continues. 738 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 1: I gotta go pick up ship from the store, like yeah, 739 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: Like it's just life for most people. And like, unless 740 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 1: you've got some sort of like hardcore plan and desire 741 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,280 Speaker 1: to go go out shooting, like most people will probably 742 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 1: just try to keep their ship together, like keep your 743 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: eyes low, yeah, don't make a big thing and hope 744 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: it ends um, which is why so many civil wars 745 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,799 Speaker 1: and with a dictator in charge, like in Syria, where 746 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 1: eventually enough people are like I just wanted to be over, 747 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 1: Like yeah, they're like find this guy promised no more shooting. Yeah, right. Look, 748 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: when I listened to the episode the trailer, I was 749 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,440 Speaker 1: freaked the funk out. I mean not because it's a 750 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 1: very very troubling idea to try and have to wrestle 751 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 1: with that, like that level of instability and violence could 752 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 1: actually just break out in the United States and your 753 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 1: I know your intention is not to freak people out 754 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 1: of just be necessarily fear monger me, but I think 755 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,239 Speaker 1: it's it's a what is sort of your goal? I 756 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 1: think in presenting people with this information, I'm trying to 757 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 1: think of it's sort of like a like a vaccine 758 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 1: in the hopes that like if you if you talk 759 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 1: about this enough and get this out enough to people 760 00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: and like get this idea in people's heads of like 761 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: how much of it and rather than just talk about 762 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,360 Speaker 1: a civil war and like this like yeah, and you 763 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 1: should buy you should buy this, you should buy that. 764 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 1: It's like this sort of ask orational thing which has 765 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: been on the far right for a while. You talk 766 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 1: about how much it would suck, exactly what would happen, 767 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 1: exactly how difficult it would be to contain once it 768 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,320 Speaker 1: gets started, and when like at the end, like the 769 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,320 Speaker 1: last episode is going to be trying to talk about 770 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: the concrete actions people can take try to make it 771 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 1: less likely, Like the goal of this is to inform 772 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 1: people of the danger, Like it's not fearmongering in the 773 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 1: way that like if I see that you're looking at 774 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 1: your phone while you're driving and you like turn a 775 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,920 Speaker 1: corner and are headed towards a wall, if I say, Miles, 776 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:31,319 Speaker 1: there's a fucking wall, Like that's the goal, Like, that's 777 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 1: the goal is to be like, there's a fucking wall 778 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: out there, and like maybe maybe look at the wall 779 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 1: and see if about see about pumping them brains, because 780 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 1: I think that's sort of the the effect it has 781 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,479 Speaker 1: is because it's sort of you're able to sort of 782 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 1: concretely see what a reality like that could look like, 783 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: and we already do I think as Americans you try 784 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: and not to ever entertain that because it's just a 785 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 1: chilling thought. But when you look at sort of the 786 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 1: kind of rhetoric that's happening, it's something definitely that like 787 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: people have increasingly become you know, afraid of, especially with 788 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:05,719 Speaker 1: the increased number of like violent attacks and the sort 789 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: of ideology of the of these people. Uh, I mean, 790 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: the the idea that this is kind of a first 791 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: time that somebody is really bringing up the possibility of 792 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 1: a second American Civil War in like sort of center 793 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:26,439 Speaker 1: to left media is like not first time anyone's bringing 794 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: it up, but really, like it was about that cracked artist. Yeah, 795 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 1: but this is something that has been talked about on 796 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 1: the right constantly four years and years since I was 797 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: fucking eighteen and going to gun shows in Texas, like 798 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 1: they have only thing people they've been horny for a 799 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,759 Speaker 1: civil war for so long. So that's also something that 800 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 1: your show helped me realize. And it's it's a real 801 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 1: win win for me from a content creator standpoint, because 802 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: if there is a civil war, then I'm I'm the 803 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:54,799 Speaker 1: guy who called it, and if there's not a civil war, 804 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 1: then I get to take credit for their not being 805 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: a civil war. I saved everybody's lives. So it's really 806 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: it really works out great for me one way.

And a couple 828 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:30,879 Speaker 1: of interesting details from the Game of Thrones from behind 829 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 1: the scenes. Uh yeah, if you if you've watched Game 830 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 1: of Thrones, you know there's some pretty intense battle scenes 831 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:44,880 Speaker 1: that are yeah, narn kind of on par with movies 832 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 1: like Gladiator, Brave Heart, Lord of the Rings, except uh 833 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 1: not like Braveheart. When in the background you can see 834 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 1: the guys faking and like, yeah, there's a great one 835 00:45:56,600 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 1: where like cuts faw. Yeah. Yeah, it's like they heard 836 00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:04,880 Speaker 1: someone yelled cut or something, so they like like like 837 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 1: they're just dicking around. I mean, look, it's hard to 838 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 1: get fucking what like hundreds of actors on the same page, 839 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 1: especially in a battle scene. Well, I think that's what's 840 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,399 Speaker 1: kind of interesting at those Game of Thrones ones, is that. 841 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean we've heard, you know, little things from the set, uh, 842 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 1: and remarkably it doesn't seem like a horribly injury riddled set. 843 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure there are injury but like you know, 844 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 1: for example, like a gladiator, right, Russell Crowe like broke 845 00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,759 Speaker 1: his entire body. He lost all feeling in his right 846 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 1: forefinger for two years because of a sword fight thing 847 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:40,319 Speaker 1: that went wrong. He aggravated and achilles tendon injury. He 848 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: broke a footbone, cracked his hip bone, popped a few 849 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 1: bicep tendons out of their sockets. He was fucked up 850 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,840 Speaker 1: from these scenes. And you know, like the good scenes, 851 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 1: they look intense and it's a great Pigo Mortenson the 852 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 1: same thing and the first load of the rings and 853 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 1: like he screams out but it kind of works in 854 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,799 Speaker 1: the scene because they're because what they lost, Like it's 855 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,360 Speaker 1: right after Boromere dies, right like kicks it and yelps 856 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks of filming is what they lost. Yeah, 857 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 1: the producer over here they were falling behind mention. So 858 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 1: we find out from the stunt coordinator. Like Game of Thrones, 859 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 1: they basically, like any risky situation involving many people, like 860 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 1: a massive battle scene or retirement home orgy, they use 861 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:32,400 Speaker 1: safe words to make sure that nobody has hurt because 862 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,000 Speaker 1: a lot of these scenes, you know, people like like 863 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 1: it's just chaos, but they have a little safe word. 864 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:41,400 Speaker 1: So according to one of the stunt coordinators, Raleigh Erlam, 865 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,760 Speaker 1: they said that they keep the set safe by using 866 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 1: a safe word. When we're doing these battles and people 867 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 1: are screaming and crying and dying, you might not know 868 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 1: if someone's in trouble, he explains, So our safe word 869 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:54,800 Speaker 1: has always been banana. So if someone started shouting banana 870 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:56,720 Speaker 1: at the top of their voice, you know they're in trouble. 871 00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:59,959 Speaker 1: So someone just having to listen out like like set 872 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,239 Speaker 1: medics and like the A D or whatever. Just like 873 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:05,880 Speaker 1: that's interesting because that might be an insight that bananas 874 00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 1: don't exist in the Game of Thrones universe, because like, otherwise, 875 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:13,400 Speaker 1: why wouldn't they be saying banana if you're staying in 876 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,480 Speaker 1: care I mean, I think it's just more to signal 877 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 1: to the crew they know, but like, think about it. 878 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 1: I want me to think about what what do you 879 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:24,160 Speaker 1: Dying soldiers always scream on the battlefield banana exactly as 880 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 1: chillingly brought to life and saving Private Rand tell my 881 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:32,799 Speaker 1: wife banana.

They're like, 973 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 1: so I don't go up hill, always downhill? Just leave 974 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 1: your ship over there. I know someone who won't turn 975 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:23,480 Speaker 1: left in their car, So I feel like a whole 976 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 1: city my friends.

You 1033 00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:21,720 Speaker 1: wake up before your alarm, No sunlight peaks through your window. 1034 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 1: It's far too early for that. You're confused for just 1035 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 1: a moment, and then you hear another explosion. It echoes 1036 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:29,760 Speaker 1: in the night, rattling the walls in the window of 1037 00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:32,320 Speaker 1: your apartment. This is not the first bomb you've heard, 1038 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:34,240 Speaker 1: and it sounds far enough away that you know the 1039 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,560 Speaker 1: danger isn't a minute. That surprises you a little bit, 1040 00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:40,720 Speaker 1: the fact that you recognized it's not close. You realize 1041 00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:42,880 Speaker 1: you've now heard enough explosions to have a pretty good 1042 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:45,080 Speaker 1: ear for them, and when they're close enough to worry about. 1043 00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:48,160 Speaker 1: It's weird how quickly life in a war zone becomes 1044 00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 1: just life. You get up. There's no sense trying to 1045 00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:53,480 Speaker 1: get back to sleep. As you stumble over to the 1046 00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:55,400 Speaker 1: kitchen to grind some coffee, you hear the crack of 1047 00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:58,640 Speaker 1: rifle fire. It's distant, too far enough away that it 1048 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:02,000 Speaker 1: sounds almost like firecrackers, but you know it's not. You 1049 00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 1: feel the grinder, put on the top and press down. 1050 00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:08,400 Speaker 1: Nothing happens. You realize, belatedly, in your sleep fogged brain 1051 00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,360 Speaker 1: that the powers at again. You wonder which of a 1052 00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:14,040 Speaker 1: dozen different rebel and insurgents groups in your state might 1053 00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:16,280 Speaker 1: be responsible. You don't even bother to get at your 1054 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:18,680 Speaker 1: phone and check the news. It doesn't really matter, and 1055 00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 1: you've got shipped to do. It's still dark outside, and 1056 00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:23,440 Speaker 1: since you're already up, you might as well take advantage 1057 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 1: of the situation and beat the crowd to the grocery store. 1058 00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 1: As you close and lock your door behind you, you 1059 00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 1: try to ignore the pop and shatter of not so 1060 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:33,160 Speaker 1: distant gunfire. There are days when you do feel like 1061 00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 1: doing something, maybe even joining your friends, but most days, 1062 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 1: like today, you've got shipped to do. It's an election year. 1063 00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 1: Every candidate is doing their level best to not call 1064 00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:45,240 Speaker 1: this what it is, a civil war. You hear that 1065 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 1: phrase out on the street, though more and more every day. 1066 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 1: You reach a crosswalk and start to step across on 1067 00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:53,240 Speaker 1: the left. Your eyes are drawn to the massive bulk 1068 00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:55,520 Speaker 1: of a police bear cat as it trundles across the 1069 00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:58,280 Speaker 1: street parallel to you. A man sits up top in 1070 00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 1: the couple up, his hands on a machine gun that 1071 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:02,680 Speaker 1: for now has its nose pointed up in the air. 1072 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 1: He stares at you, and you try not to stare back. 1073 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 1: As you hurry along to the supermarket, you ask yourself 1074 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 1: the question you've asked almost every day for the last 1075 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 1: three years, How did it get this bad? Did that 1076 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:17,680 Speaker 1: seem far fetched? You outlandish? And if so, let me 1077 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,560 Speaker 1: try to show you why the preceding passage might well 1078 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 1: be reality. For millions of Americans startlingly soon if something 1079 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 1: isn't done. The second American Civil War doesn't sound like 1080 01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:31,000 Speaker 1: a crazy distant possibility to me, and it hasn't for 1081 01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:34,000 Speaker 1: a while. I'm Robert Evans, and it's my job to 1082 01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 1: help you see what I see. Two thousand sixteen was 1083 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:40,800 Speaker 1: the first year I started seriously considering the possibility of 1084 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 1: a second American Civil War. It was the year I 1085 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:46,400 Speaker 1: reported on the major protests surrounding the most contentious election 1086 01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:48,960 Speaker 1: in modern American history. I was there at the r 1087 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:50,960 Speaker 1: n C in the d n C, and at both 1088 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:54,240 Speaker 1: I saw tremendous hatred on display. I also traveled to 1089 01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:56,400 Speaker 1: a Rack in two thousand sixteen to report on the 1090 01:00:56,440 --> 01:00:59,120 Speaker 1: siege of Mosle. But nothing I saw there, nothing I 1091 01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,120 Speaker 1: saw anywhere that year, scared me more than watching Alex 1092 01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:04,480 Speaker 1: Jones speak on the first day of the r NC. 1093 01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:14,680 Speaker 1: These are not liberals, as welcome to It could happen 1094 01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:18,000 Speaker 1: here the podcast where every season I take some fantastic, 1095 01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:20,920 Speaker 1: unlikely scenario and explain how it could happen, why it 1096 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,040 Speaker 1: might be closer than you'd think, and how it will 1097 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:26,640 Speaker 1: look when or if it comes Listen it subscribed on 1098 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:29,320 Speaker 1: the I heart Radio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
