00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: bit better in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our

112
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: list is a couple of things we're talking about today.

113
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: INSTACRT workers are striking school boards are begging Joe Biden

114
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: to protect them. We will talk about the scourge that

115
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: is facing all parents this Halloween according to cops, which

116
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: is that people who have weed gummies are just dying

117
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: to give them away two children they don't know and

118
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: just make make children way more annoying. We are going

119
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: to talk about Dog, the bounty hunter. I think we're

120
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: gonna I believe in I believe in today's show. I

121
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: believe we're gonna get to it all of that plenty more.

122
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: But first, Sean, we do like to ask our guests,

123
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: what is something from your search history. I googled this morning,

124
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: can a weed plant get rained on too much? Mm hmm, yeah,

125
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: because yeah, we had a lot of rain here last

126
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: night and it's my wife and I was first time

127
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 1: growing weed outdoors and we got spooked. Yeah. I just

128
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: gotta you know, if you're going to outdoors there, if

129
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: they're they're meant for, you know, typically plants grow. So

130
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: I think it's just like the mold, right that you

131
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: gotta watch out for. Yeah, mold. I googled it, and

132
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 1: I love the like weed growing advice is there's a

133
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: fine line. Sometimes you're like, yeah, this is science, and

134
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: sometimes it's just sowner advice and sometimes um So the

135
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: first tip was like just shake all the water off off,

136
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 1: punch it off. So yeah, we shook it off a bit.

137
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: And then it's said to give it potassium, which I

138
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,839
Speaker 1: guess means like you feed it my weed plant a

139
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: banana or something. I don't know how to give it potassium. Yeah,

140
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: I don't know how to feed plants at all. Yeah,

141
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: I don't I don't how to feed in any food. Yeah,

142
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: or it's like or like I feel like a lot

143
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: of like weed growing things will also just be like weird,

144
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: hostile like sarcasm too. It's like, oh, I don't know,

145
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: Like it's a plant, right, so you know, God forbid water,

146
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: God on a thing that grows outside. You're gonna be fine. Bro,

147
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: Really are very interesting. Yeah, we boards are interesting place

148
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: for information. It's just like you're an idiot for asking

149
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: questions about growing weed, but then but then like wrapping

150
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: it up with it's all good, bro it don't worry

151
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: about it. Yeah. How do you dry a planet? Like?

152
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: Do you dry a plant by just waiting for the

153
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: sun to come out? Or is it like we were

154
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 1: just like putting a little towel on it and wagging

155
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 1: it back and forth. What were we doing? Yeah, I

156
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: don't know what I did, because we're not gonna have

157
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: sun here for several days, so we were thinking about

158
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 1: maybe just cutting the plant early, you know, cutting our

159
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: losses and and bringing it in to dry it inside.

160
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: But I don't know. It's it's tense times over here. Yeah. Yeah,

161
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 1: well you know we're we're here with you, so if

162
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,599
Speaker 1: if we can help you know, let us know is

163
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: that gang also if you have any tips for obvious treatment,

164
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: because we know we have many diverse skill set within

165
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 1: the listening community. And BC is like naturally a place

166
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: that weed is very comfortable, correct, Like that's a that's

167
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: even before everything was legal, and like you could have

168
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: massive growing operations like that was the place that people

169
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: grew a lot of weed, right, yeah, even before it

170
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 1: was legal. My my recollection is that it was a

171
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 1: seven billion dollar shadow industry pre legalization just in BC. Wow. Yeah,

172
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: because I remember like even when the first like medical

173
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: dispensaries are opening up here in like the late nineties

174
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: and early two thousands, like BC buds would come down

175
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: and I'd be like, yo, they got some BC buds

176
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: in and that you know that the community for sure. Yeah. Yeah.

177
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: So the best stories that you can find about like

178
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 1: people being innovative is like how people get drugs across

179
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: the border. And I feel like there were some good

180
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: ones about people like floating it across in balloons from

181
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: British Columbia and maybe a catapult here and there. I

182
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 1: think the catapult was the US Mexico border, but I

183
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: remember the catapult there. They're My favorite one at the

184
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: at the BC US border was these folks built a tunnel,

185
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: and so they dug out a whole tunnel. They put

186
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: in like a little trolley tracks and everything, and they

187
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: put fluorescent lighting in. But then the Feds knew about it,

188
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: I guess from the beginning and just watched them do it.

189
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: And then the first guy that rolled that first cart

190
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 1: down with like fluorescent lighting like a grocery store and everything,

191
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 1: they were just waiting for him on the other end.

192
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 1: They busted them and then fucking no need any more worse?

193
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: Do you think, like the Yeah, they a busted him,

194
00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: and they're like they're trying to figure out like the

195
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: best bit to shock the guy with like a nick

196
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: What do we do like clowns. Yeah, we throw a

197
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: surprise party. We do like surprise and under arrest our

198
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: trafficking a team from practical jokers. Yeah, like agent, Yeah,

199
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 1: put your ear wig in so we can feed you

200
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:24,079
Speaker 1: some lines from the control room. Okay, yeah. The trolley,

201
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: the indoor trolley. A few people know that that was

202
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: what Mr Rogers was doing, is smuggling weed on his

203
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 1: little indoor trilley. What was that little town called Imagination Land?

204
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 1: Or something. Yeah, yeah, whatever, he was tracking Friday's realm.

205
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, man, you see that ship. You see those people,

206
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: They're right fucking peaked. Man. What is something? What is

207
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 1: something that you think is overrated? Sean? The banjo, which

208
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 1: is a banjo and a ukulele. It's a musical instrument,

209
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: should not exist. And my downstairs neighbor is dating a

210
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: a white man with an asymmetrical haircut who's been teaching

211
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: himself how to play banjul Ailey in my yard for

212
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 1: five months. I'm painting a very specific picture of my

213
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 1: home life. Here we plant problems and this dang banjul

214
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: ale and he's not getting better. It's like I want

215
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: to say, give up. You're not progressing at a rate

216
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,839
Speaker 1: that would make you feel good about this. Yeah, that's

217
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: the key part. He's learning. He's learning, not like the

218
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: instrument sounds terrible regardless even if I think you had

219
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: mastered it, I would still hate it. But he's been

220
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:46,239
Speaker 1: teaching himself instrument by playing and singing like Weezer covers.

221
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah. I'm baffled by his confidence because I

222
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: have so much anxiety, Like I feel like I can't

223
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: buy milk without thinking that I've somehow offended the grocery

224
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: clerk for him to just um into my heart and

225
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: think that you know, he could do this and no

226
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: one would have issue with this terrible banjo a music. Yeah,

227
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: I don't understand his confidence. In fact, I want to

228
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: learn from it or something right, right, I mean, I

229
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: think a lot of people there's always like that tweet.

230
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: It's like I wish I had the confidence of blah

231
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: blah blah. It's like we should all aspire to the

232
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: confidence of a white man with an asymmetrical haircut learning

233
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: banjo lal at the outdoors. I used to be like

234
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 1: when I was when I was a kid, I played

235
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: trumpet for most of my life and when I would

236
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: when I would practice, I I'm just like, I just

237
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: like I don't want to sound bad. I would like

238
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: go to like the most remote remote place of like

239
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: my house to try and like practice in silence. I

240
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: would even use a mute sometimes. So for someone who

241
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: to be like, yeah, I was doing in my driveway

242
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 1: just blasting this ship, I'm like, Wow, that's there's something

243
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: to be learned there. Though. Yeah, they sound though like

244
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: what do you what? Like? It feels like what are

245
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: you gonna do like a tropical you know, ukulele obviously

246
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 1: evokes Hawaii, the Pacific Islands, you know, things like that.

247
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 1: But then the banjo is very much feels like Southern American.

248
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: And then together like what the fund is that? Like

249
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 1: does it sound any like when you hear it, you're like, oh,

250
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: that's an interesting sound, or just sounds like any other

251
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: stringed instrument. It sounds racist that makes sense than ukulele.

252
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 1: And I feel like the banjo has definitely appropriated the ukulele,

253
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: like it's more banjo than ukulele. It's just I think

254
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 1: the banjo just wanted the lateley for the cred or something,

255
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: the cultural cred yeah, or the you know place too

256
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: for other people to vacation. And and also yeah, kidnapped

257
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: the ukuleles queen in order to anna banjo structure. Yeah,

258
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: and then intermarried, full forced intermarriage. Yeah. They Yeah, they

259
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,040
Speaker 1: have the racism covered from both the like cultural a

260
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 1: creation angle and the just straight up deliverance style like

261
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: uncut proud racism of the banjo. Yeah. And if yeah,

262
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: I would love to hear a sick banjo l solo,

263
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: but in my mind, like I don't I don't. And

264
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: also when I hear wheezer, I'm like, what are they?

265
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: What song is it? Like? Say it ain't so or something? Yeah?

266
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: Just pretty yeah, several. My name is jonas on Banjo Laile.

Speaker 1: neighbor as the apartment from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

269
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: For some reason like that, I can't not like Kim Careless. Yeah, yeah,

295
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: I I feel like I agree that the boiled egg

296
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 1: is thinking. So I don't want to force that on

297
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: other people necessarily. So I just tried to eat it

298
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: almost like a vitamin Like. I like that I can

299
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,280

00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: top and create a chasm, and then I give my

303
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 1: little mannise and soy sauce in there, then I eat

304
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 1: the rest of the rest egg and one bite. Yeah, yeah,

305
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: they're so good. All right, Well, let's take a quick

306
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,399
Speaker 1: break and we will be right back to talk about

307
00:18:55,400 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: some news and we're back. Strikes are in the air.

308
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: We got an instat cart workers strike starting on October six.

309
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: They're specifically the shoppers who go on strike because yeah,

310
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: it's it's bullshit. They've been treated just horribly. They they

311
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: have added billions and billions of dollars of evaluation to

312
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: the company's bottom line, and the company has rewarded them

313
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 1: by treating them like ship. Yeah, this the old gig

314
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: worker recipe, which is make them independent contractors so you

315
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: owe them nothing. And in this situation, you know, conditions

316
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 1: have been pretty the pretty. Conditions are awful across the

317
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: board for people and that are doing gig work because

318
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: of the fact that no one is treated as an employee.

319
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: It's all this independent contract or nonsense. And you know

320
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 1: there is for instat cart shoppers. They we're dealing with

321
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: low tips, like where they started to bring down like

322
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,439
Speaker 1: the minimum that like would first sort of default too

323
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: in the app, as well as like a rating system

324
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: that's super fucked up in severe where like if you came,

325
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: if you dropped off in order, and someone gave you

326
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: a one star review mostly because for things like out

327
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: of their control, like supply chains are fucked up. So yeah,

328
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: maybe the thing the customer asked for wasn't in their

329
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: order and they hit a one star review like sort

330
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: of in a retaliatory way that would prevent shoppers from

331
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: like losing out a more lucrative trips less work in general.

332
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: So they have just some simple demands to try and

333
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 1: make this just resemble some kind of humane work. They

334
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 1: have five demands, which are that they just want base

335
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: pay for each order instead of the system they have

336
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,959
Speaker 1: now which pays workers as well as seven dollars for

337
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 1: like they'll batch up to three orders and once and

338
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 1: then you're making seven dollars. That's nonsense. They want to

339
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: return to commission a commission based pain model where previously

340
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: pay shoppers forty cents per item shopped. They also want

341
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: the ten percent default tip to be reinstated right now

342
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,959
Speaker 1: it's at five percent. They also sadly are asking for

343
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: occupational death benefits for workers who die on the job

344
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 1: because that is something that has happened as well as

345
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 1: you know, to alter the rating system that doesn't punish

346
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: them for things like the supply chain being fucked up

347
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: because of a fucking pandemic and customers taking it out

348
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,959
Speaker 1: on the rating system. And yeah, there was just like

349
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 1: there have been more attacks on gig workers during the pandemic,

350
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,120
Speaker 1: and then there was Sadly, an instacrt shopper was murdered

351
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: in March in Colorado while a fucking working for insta cart.

352
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 1: And that's why they're like, this is this isn't just

353
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 1: like like I think a lot of people, especially the

354
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: way people tip or way workers describe it, they just

355
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 1: think people are just fucking around getting their groceries and

356
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: dropping off and like, well they don't need a tip,

357
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 1: like that's an easy job. But honestly that this is

358
00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: Sadly they rely very heavily on tips because instacart doesn't

359
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 1: do the minimum. So for listeners, they should go to

360
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: their phone right now and delete instacart as an app.

361
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: Is that basically the way that we can kind of

362
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: stand in solidarity with or just don't use it. I mean,

363
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: I think customers are just boycotting as well. In solidarity

364
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 1: beginning the sixteenth when they strike where because you know,

365
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,679
Speaker 1: like like you're saying Instacart's value, I think nearly doubled

366
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: in the pandemic to thirty nine billion dollars is what

367
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: they're worth. And as you know, as the pandemic like

368
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: went on and we prematurely began to reopen things, the

369
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: demand for grocery delivery has also shrunk. So they're, like,

370
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 1: I think, in a position where they're trying to cut

371
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: corners to to kind of keep their revenues looking pretty.

372
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: But it's just a you know, another predictable tale of

373
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: gig worker apps treating people like independent contractors to the

374
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: point where the only the only choice is to like

375
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 1: have to take collective action like this, any job that

376
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: comes with the cabin if you're working and you die,

377
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 1: we don't know you anything. That's a job that needs

378
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 1: a union. That's like, h that's very very clear. That

379
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: part is is really shocking. Like I would rather I

380
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: would rather go to a job interview and ask them, like, hey,

381
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: what happens if I die? I rather here that they're

382
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 1: unprepared for that, Like I'd rather they be like, oh,

383
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 1: I don't know, we've never considered that as opposed to

384
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: them being like, yeah, that happens a lot. Just yeah,

385
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: we have a policy and it doesn't include you. So

386
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 1: that's that's insane at a at a bare minimum that

387
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 1: like that seems like that should be illegal. M Yeah,

388
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 1: well I think and this is why companies like this,

389
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:48,680
Speaker 1: they're constantly lobbying legislators to you know, write guidelines that

390
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: are favorable to this kind of oppressive work. And you

391
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 1: know they're right now. There was even talks of like

392
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 1: instat cart and door dash and Uber will potentially merge

393
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: into one just three headed hydra of terrible, terrible subsubsistence

394
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: wage work. Yeah. I feel like they're too much like

395
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: little mom and pop companies that we need them to

396
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: be more like just giant autonomy automatons that and through

397
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 1: human lives. Yeah. And by the way, the thirty nine

398
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: billion dollar valuation is it should be clear like based

399
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: on the fact that they're able to at least like

400
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: to a large degree, that they're able to treat employees

401
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: like ship like that is the unfortunate truth of the

402
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 1: current version of you know, late capitalism is like, well,

403
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 1: if you can, you can you know, lower the amount

404
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 1: that the overhead on these dang employees like your ubers.

405
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 1: You can really crush it out there, right, because like, yeah,

406
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: you think like the benevolent version of an app like

407
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 1: this is like yeah, man, like you keep like we

408
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 1: just need a small feed for us to connect you

409
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: with someone for you to do the job, and then

410
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 1: like whatever that costs, like you take all that. We

411
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 1: merely just set this up, like for the infrastructure for

412
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: people to make money by offering people rides or doing

413
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: shopping for them, when now it's like, yeah, you're not

414
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,239
Speaker 1: getting a fucking not even getting close to what's your

415
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: own on on the actual labor that you're putting into

416
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 1: this thing. So it's don't see that formula changing anytimes.

417
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: The rating system too, I'm glad they're keen on that

418
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: because that's brutal and it also you know, makes us

419
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: as consumers see our complicit complicity in it too, because

420
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: it's like I think the problem with those rating systems

421
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: is that it's letting everyone be a boss. And like,

422
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,199
Speaker 1: because of the hierarchy of capitalism, we're all, you know,

423
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 1: we've all been piste off at our bosses. But it's

424
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 1: letting everyone be like you know, I I recently hired

425
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: a new employee to bring me a sandwich in the

426
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 1: next twenty minutes, and I'm gonna treat that person like shit,

427
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna scream at them for you know, having they

428
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 1: were late. Yeah. Yeah, And because there it's a vast

429
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,880
Speaker 1: web of people mistreating each other, like the if this

430
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 1: is the one chance you get to have an employee

431
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: who works for you and you've just been shipped on

432
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: by your boss like for five years, like you know,

433
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 1: I feel like some people will use that as an

434
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 1: opportunity to treat those people like ship And I don't

435
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 1: think it's it's like a coincidence to me, It's it's

436
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: designed right. It's like there's so much hostility and frustration

437
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 1: building up with some of these systems of power, and

438
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:36,880
Speaker 1: I think things like this facilitate that hostility being directed

439
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: in the wrong direction, you know, like let's have people

440
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: send it at each other instead of in the direction

441
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: it should be going, Yeah, upward. And uh, Like I'm

442
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,679
Speaker 1: not a historian. This is this is just based on

443
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: me watching the Ridley Scott film The Gladiator. But I

444
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,920
Speaker 1: think that the whole thumbs up thumbs down thing came

445
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 1: from walking Phoenix, like the guy that Roman emperor, and

446
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: it was like, you know, that's where he's like, should

447
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: this gladiator be murdered publicly or not? Yes or no?

448
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: Thumbs down. And I think it was clear to everyone

449
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,239
Speaker 1: who saw that Oscar you know worthy film, that uh,

450
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: that's a sort of kind of unaccountable form of power

451
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: that should be checked, not kind of scaled up through

452
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: innovative app technology and like distributed to everybody. That's so

453
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,440
Speaker 1: so I had a I had a theory because Gladiator

454
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,960
Speaker 1: was a two thousand film and we did a live

455
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 1: show about the year two thousand, and I had a

456
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:46,160
Speaker 1: theory worked out about Gladiator and why it like hits

457
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: so hard with the two thousand with the audience in

458
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,479
Speaker 1: the year two thousand that we I didn't have time

459
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: to get to. But just like this idea, I I

460
00:27:55,520 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 1: feel like the audience was caught like identified with Hajwaki

461
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: and Phoenix, like they didn't want to, but that's who

462
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 1: they realized they were. And then like Gladiator was the

463
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 1: you know the people who are off like fighting wars

464
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,199
Speaker 1: that like they don't want to be a part of.

465
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,880
Speaker 1: But like there's never been like a more cowardly character

466
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 1: like in movies, and like when you look at the

467
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 1: structure of that movie, it really feels like it's like

468
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 1: offering that character up as like someone we can project

469
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 1: our anxieties of being. You know, like America is way

470
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: more nepotistic than it wants to admit. Americans like will

471
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: be at war without realizing it, you know that all

472
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 1: that sort of ship and then like you're able to

473
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: be like, no, funk that guy, he's bad. But yeah,

474
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: the allowing us like an app that allows us all

475
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: to be individual little commedist is common commed des I is, Yeah,

476
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a billion dollar industry because we're all

477
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: like fuck yeah, thumbs down off with the head, my

478
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 1: my eggs were late or whatever, the blue and brown

479
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 1: shells mixed together. Ye Also, uh, you know it is

480
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: the I said strikes are in the air because Hollywood

481
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: is facing its largest strike since World War Two, Like

482
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 1: the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees IOTZI, who represent

483
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 1: you know, they build the sets, they do all the

484
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: behind the scenes work. They are going to probably strike

485
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: in the next couple of days. And you know, if

486
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 1: you like I, I don't know what Hollywood is gonna

487
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 1: do like, is the next season of Stranger Things just

488
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: gonna be like a Lars von Trier movie and like

489
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: a black a black box type thing, like because that's

490
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 1: basically what what you're dealing with. Everybody's just wearing bur

491
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: laps acts and in a in a black void because

492
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: these are the people who build the fucking sets and

493
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: make everything like make you able to suspend your disbelief. Yeah,

494
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 1: and I think you know, and it's the same. The

495
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: theme is the same anywhere, right, which is just like

496
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 1: with Ayazi, They're they're saying like we're not trying to

497
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 1: blow the fucking industry up, but when we keep banging

498
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: our heads against the wall saying we would like, you know,

499
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 1: a living wage for certain positions, like at the lowest

500
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 1: rung of our union, that that is a living wage.

501
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: Or you know, like because new media and streaming stuff

502
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 1: has also like created like all new kind of business

503
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 1: quagmires for like contracts and things like that, there's just

504
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff too. Or they're like, what about

505
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:46,719
Speaker 1: like rest periods because if I'm doing consecutive like you know,

506
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: eighteen hour days, I I there has to be a

507
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: point where we can have a break, not just because

508
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: they have to make a schedule for production like in

509
00:30:55,960 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 1: time to not go over budget. And yeah, I I'm really,

510
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:04,239
Speaker 1: I honestly hope that the Hollywood actually takes a second, ever,

511
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: like a moment to reckon with itself because these are

512
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 1: truly the fucking people who make everything fucking possible. It's

513
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: not just that it's not the people who we see

514
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: on the fucking screen. To get to that point is

515
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: so that effort in labor of countless fucking people, And

516
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: and hopefully I think it just makes people more aware

517
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: of like what what it takes to make these things,

518
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: because they don't just like pop up and it's a

519
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: great time, Like there are really hard jobs in production

520
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: that go unnoticed and are not being compensated fairly. Yeah,

521
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: I think the living wage is a great point because

522
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: I think between this and the instacrat workers, it's probably

523
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: a similar thing of the designation of being told you're

524
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 1: an essential worker rubbing up against the realization that you're

525
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 1: not being paid a living wage, Like how can I

526
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 1: be essential to everyone and not be getting paid a

527
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: wage that lets me live? And I think that, you know,

528
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 1: I saw that during the pandemic because a lot of

529
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 1: up here in NBC, right, we have a pretty big

530
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 1: film industry, and a lot of COVID stuff got brought

531
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 1: up here because you couldn't shoot down in l A.

532
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 1: It was getting brought up to Canada. And so there

533
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 1: was a period where like teachers literally weren't at school

534
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 1: teaching and you know, shaping the minds of the future generation.

535
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 1: But like I have friends who are still working on

536
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: like sugar free gum commercials, like yeah, I mean, and

537
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 1: so they're being told like, no, no, you're essential. We

538
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 1: need this sugar free gum commercial. And if that's true, sure,

539
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: tell me that's that's essential. But like treat me right, yeah, right,

540
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: anything new in like the error version of you know,

541
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 1: market capitalism, Like so new media, these delivery apps with

542
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: that are like you know, building an industry from scratch

543
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: kind of like those will all always by default just

544
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 1: abuse the ship out of people until like somebody does

545
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: this and like fights for the rights of people. That's

546
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 1: just like how it seems like it has always worked

547
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: in America, and it would be awesome if we could

548
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 1: break out of that cycle where it's like you know,

549
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: because I mean it's the same thing, right you look

550
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: at like how instacart values, the value goes up and

551
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 1: workers are still being like a dude, we still have

552
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: so many fucking problems, and you guys are spending more money.

553
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 1: The same thing with all these new shows that are

554
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: coming out, like yeah, exactly, Prestige TV is like it's

555
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 1: fucking on the same level as film and granted out

556
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 1: he's working on film and television, but like they're just

557
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 1: seeing like these budgets are getting bigger and bigger and bigger,

558
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 1: but you're able to kind of keep costs low by

559
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 1: keeping the crew at this very like lower level without

560
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: an ability to renegotiate things. While we're watching things like

561
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: how much money is being spent on this production. They're

562
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: trying to treat like a Netflix series like it's a

563
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: fucking funnier die short, you know, like it's just, yeah,

564
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: it's bullshit. But they that seems to be the default

565
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 1: shape that all you know, industries take when they're when

566
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 1: they first take form in America. And then like then

567
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 1: you have to like break through the media like cone

568
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 1: of silence and be like no, this is really bad

569
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: for a lot of people, because otherwise it'll just be

570
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: like insta carts. Valuation is fucking skyrocketing, like that'll be

571
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,840
Speaker 1: the headline instead of yeah, you know what's actually happening

572
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 1: to people. I mean people are naturally withholding their labor

573
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: because no matter what many people are realizing it, it

574
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 1: shouldn't working multiple jobs shouldn't be the norm. Like, if

575
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,359
Speaker 1: we're in a system where we have to put our

576
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 1: labor forward to survive, then one job should be enough.

577
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,880
Speaker 1: And the fact that it isn't is I think, you know,

578
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 1: it's just creating a very organic version of people kind

579
00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 1: of advocating for themselves, and it's popping up more more

580
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,439
Speaker 1: and in long may that last. I hope that leads

581
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: to a point where more people can really fully be

582
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: on the same page to understand like oh yeah, like

583
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 1: whether it's Instacart or aatsi or uber or fucking writing

584
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 1: for an online publication or whatever, like, there are minimums

585
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: that we deserve as human beings, especially when we're in

586
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 1: a system where our labor is being converted into massive

587
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 1: wealth for people who aren't putting even a close to

588
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,840
Speaker 1: the shred of work that the workers do. Yeah, it

589
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,799
Speaker 1: would be cool if somehow is this there became some

590
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 1: stronger solidarity or even like alliances between all these essential

591
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 1: workers because they've fallowen across so many different sectors and industries.

592
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,959
Speaker 1: And yeah, it's been such a difficult period. But these

593
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 1: are all the folks who are told, no, you have

594
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,240
Speaker 1: to keep working. So if when push comes to shove,

595
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:54,839
Speaker 1: I mean worse than that plague comes to death, that

596
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 1: that these folks have to keep working, they they should

597
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 1: be able to like collectively organize. All right, let's talk

598
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 1: briefly about another group of fat cats who have had

599
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 1: it too good for too long. And I'm talking, of course,

600
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,240
Speaker 1: about the people who volunteered to be on school boards.

601
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:15,240
Speaker 1: Come on like that. You know, they dedicate their time

602
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: to help educate our children, and now they're going to

603
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: complain that they've been subjected to being you know, abused

604
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: and treated like absolute ship by right wing political activists.

605
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 1: Come on, I've had enough where I mean next, you know,

606
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 1: we've seen the scenes at these board meetings. They look

607
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 1: they're just you can't even like if you were if

608
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 1: you had it on mute there, you're like, oh my god,

609
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 1: like was their network of sexual predators like just like

610
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: running them up in this like school system. But no,

611
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:52,399
Speaker 1: they're like they're teaching our kids critical race theory, which

612
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 1: again is for graduate students and law students. It's so

613
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 1: complex you couldn't even begin to fucking teach a child

614
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: critical race theory even with like the most a rudimentary

615
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 1: graphs and pictures. But again we've seen this, whether it

616
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 1: was critical race theory or masks. You know, there were

617
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,880
Speaker 1: medical professionals who have had their tires slashed from nearly

618
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: like restating the obvious facts at a school board meeting

619
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,880
Speaker 1: around masks or vaccines. Teachers have been subjected to coordinated

620
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 1: harassment campaigns for believing in teaching history. And and we're

621
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 1: also when we talked about earlier, extremists are trying to

622
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 1: infiltrate the school boards themselves to try and alter the

623
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 1: curriculum like to whatever they see fit. So things are chaotic.

624
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: And this group that the National school Boards Association, who

625
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 1: like representing like thousands of school board members, they're like

626
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 1: asking the president to like, we need protection here, like

627
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: this is they're they're actually effectively intimidating people into not

628
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 1: doing what's right for children purely because of intimidation. And

629
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: they really are asking that things that are including quote,

630
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,960
Speaker 1: the classification of these heinous actions could be the equivalent

631
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 1: to a form of domestic terrorism and hate crimes, and

632
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 1: they're saying, we just we need help all across the board,

633
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:13,240
Speaker 1: whether that's having the FBI, Secret Service and like National

634
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 1: Threat Assessment Center, like give them resources to understand like

635
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,719
Speaker 1: how to like do proper threat assessment or examine what

636
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 1: they say, quote examine appropriate enforceable actions against these crimes

637
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:28,280
Speaker 1: and acts of violence. It just seems like they're that

638
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 1: there's so many avenues for these people to harass them

639
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 1: that they're just like this work. We're not equipped for this,

640
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: Like we need someone intervened. I think the most absurd

641
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,720
Speaker 1: part of it is that a lot of the people

642
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 1: who are harassing these teachers from the right seem to

643
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 1: be the same people that proposed as a solution to

644
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 1: mass shootings at schools that these teachers be given guns. Yeah,

645
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 1: and so like just for their own safety, I mean

646
00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 1: the safety of these idiotic monsters, they should probably we

647
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 1: choose one of those things, like either I'm going to

648
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 1: keep harassing and antagonizing these teachers or I want to

649
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: arm them, but for your own safety, maybe not both, right, yeah, yeah,

650
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 1: like that if they were just like, okay, we are

651
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 1: going to go with your suggestion to arm the teachers,

652
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:23,439
Speaker 1: but only at PTA meetings. Yeah right right, yeah yeah

653
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:28,919
Speaker 1: that energy, yeah, temporary gun license, yeah right. Or they're

654
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,720
Speaker 1: just like or they're like, yeah, well we can do like, uh,

655
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: you know, trial by combat, but we'll just get like

656
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 1: the mountain to represent the school boards and yeah, throw

657
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 1: whoever you want at them. Parents. How about you rick

658
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: with the flannel shirt tucked into your jeans. You want

659
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 1: to fight the mountain over cretinor theory? Now, okay, next up, masks?

660
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: Anybody else? No good, don't get dry ripped off by

661
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 1: the mountain. But I think you know, this is just

662
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:53,960
Speaker 1: kind of that thing where it's it's hard to know,

663
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 1: like how can you solve this problem because it just

664
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: feels like this is just part of like the continuing

665
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 1: convoy oceans of this like amorphous culture war that is

666
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 1: existing that if it's not critical race theory, it's gonna

667
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:07,719
Speaker 1: be masks, and if it's not that, it's gonna be

668
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: trains kids, And if it's not that, it's going to

669
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 1: be this other thing that there's just there's always going

670
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 1: to find they're always going to find a way to

671
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 1: keep doing this. So I don't know. I mean, I

672
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 1: think maybe that's why they're asking like some kind of

673
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 1: law enforcement part of this, because maybe jail might dissuade

674
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,880
Speaker 1: some of these parents that are just like so hopped

675
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:29,799
Speaker 1: up on their privilege that maybe it's not you know,

676
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:31,760
Speaker 1: maybe it's not a thing that you can just slash

677
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 1: someone's tires. I mean, I think it's a bit of

678
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 1: a snake eating its own tail thing, because I think

679
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 1: that the solution is how you educate kids, Like, if

680
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: you want adults that aren't idiotic and violent and hostile

681
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 1: in these ignorant ways, it's gonna start in school. And yeah,

682
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: that's I guess part of why this uh battle is

683
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,800
Speaker 1: so important. But it also I guess it would require

684
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 1: patients for some of those results to be seen. Like

685
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,839
Speaker 1: maybe we can hope that in in thirty years, if

686
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: things go well, there won't be teachers trying to parents

687
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 1: trying to fight teachers. Right. Yeah, it's yeah, I think

688
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,799
Speaker 1: And that's why I think conservatives see just as they

689
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 1: see the same path there. Right, It's like it's through

690
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,239
Speaker 1: the schools. It's like Steve Bannon said, it's through the

691
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 1: school boards, and they know that just there's been this

692
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,760
Speaker 1: like baseline of what American education is, and they realize

693
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,800
Speaker 1: it's turning out more people who would probably not vote

694
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 1: for Republicans, and they're just like, fun, Okay, then like

695
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: we need to like we need to start deprogramming people

696
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,960
Speaker 1: as swiftly as possible to try and get them on

697
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 1: board with our more autocratic, you know, fascist way of

698
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 1: looking at governance. Yeah. Yeah, all right, let's take a

699
00:41:46,960 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 1: quick break and we'll be right back, and we're back,

700
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: all right. So Halloween is coming up, one of our

701
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:09,439
Speaker 1: favorite seasons here on Daily Zeitgeist, besides National Black Dog Day.

702
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:11,919
Speaker 1: You know, it's up there with National Black Dog Day

703
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: Halloween for us. But you know, every time Halloween comes around,

704
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 1: there's usually going to be a dumb police warning about

705
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 1: this year it's pot laced Halloween candy that these you know,

706
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: these dang potheads are gonna be handing out tricky th

707
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 1: HC laced Halloween candy to your kids. And then just like,

708
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, well, I don't know what they think

709
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 1: the purpose of that is, but this is so the

710
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:51,080
Speaker 1: way this story is being manufactured is they raid somebody's

711
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 1: house and find candy laced with THHC. Because people love

712
00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 1: that ship because it's a lot of fun. They look

713
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 1: at the similarities between the candy and the like can

714
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,240
Speaker 1: Halloween candy and they're like, ah, they must be trying

715
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: to They don't actually believe this. This is just like

716
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,840
Speaker 1: they This is how they get people to be scared.

717
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 1: On the local news, they're like this, this is a

718
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 1: great way to whip up a quick moral panic about

719
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:23,360
Speaker 1: the dangers of weed. And it's the reason they made

720
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 1: these candies in the size and shape and flavor of

721
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,399
Speaker 1: actual candies. Is is not just because it tastes good

722
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,440
Speaker 1: and is fun, but it is because they want to

723
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: sneak one pest children and poison them for some reason.

724
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 1: That's that's all, you know, Stoner's all they do is

725
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 1: watch YouTube videos of kids who are accidentally high and

726
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: laugh their asses off because they're so sadistic, and they're

727
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,799
Speaker 1: also so rich that they can afford to give a

728
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 1: fucking thirty dollar candy bar just at a time, just

729
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:01,480
Speaker 1: tossing them out to the local kids that your local youth.

730
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: Of course, of course, I'm in my late thirties and

731
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 1: in my day, you know, people freaked out about their

732
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,920
Speaker 1: being razor blades in the house of candy and so

733
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but this seems like genuine progress to me.

734
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,720
Speaker 1: It's like trying to get me high, Like that's better

735
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 1: than trying to slip my throat internally to slice up

736
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 1: my asosh I guess with an arrant razor blade. There

737
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 1: are and this is a quote from a Washington Post article,

738
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 1: there are no documented cases of kids being poisoned by

739
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 1: marijuana laced halloween candy. Zero And the one case where

740
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 1: they have, like a parent claiming that they ate some

741
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 1: of their kids Halloween candy and it was laced was

742
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 1: too people who went to the emergency room and where like,

743
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 1: we're we ate some candy with meth on it, and

744
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:08,240
Speaker 1: we like, we don't want to explain to you where

745
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,359
Speaker 1: we got it, so we're just gonna say that it

746
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:14,240
Speaker 1: was in our kids halloween candy. Hall Um basically seems

747
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 1: to be the It seems to be the story there.

748
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: That sounds like an incident where people just ate math

749
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:25,320
Speaker 1: and then made up a lie. Yeah exactly, Yeah, some

750
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 1: meth probably got in that candy. I you're like, we're

751
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: just eating loose meth just because you didn't have a

752
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:32,879
Speaker 1: stem and you're just trying to beam up real quick.

753
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:34,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't look, I'm not here to judge,

754
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: but sir, this is bad. I love the I love

755
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 1: the fact that you're like, there's no documented case of

756
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 1: this ever fucking happening, which in a way makes Q

757
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:49,359
Speaker 1: and On more realistic than this ship from Jeffrey. Yeah,

758
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 1: like at least, like I'm like, yeah, well, you know,

759
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 1: like they're they are they're trying to tie these loose

760
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: threads either, like there's not even a fucking thread out

761
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:59,280
Speaker 1: there to even clasp on two for this stupid fucking

762
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 1: story that they loved to rinse and reus every year.

763
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,359
Speaker 1: That's that's a great comparison though, because it sounds like

764
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:07,839
Speaker 1: it's you know, news editors trying to you know, capitalize

765
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:12,880
Speaker 1: on the conspiracy theory side of the algorithm by creating,

766
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 1: you know, some new hot of the moment conspiracy theory,

767
00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 1: or they're just looking for an excuse to be able

768
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 1: to pick through their kids candy first and eat all

769
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 1: the best stuff, right, despite this being like an annual

770
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 1: news story that I grew up, you know, in the

771
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: eighties and nineties thinking was like one of the main

772
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:42,680
Speaker 1: dangers to my livelihood was to my life was you know,

773
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:47,240
Speaker 1: get eating poisoned Halloween candy. There have been since nineteen

774
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 1: two cases of tampered Halloween treats in the US and Canada,

775
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:57,520
Speaker 1: which there's about forty one point one million trigger treaters

776
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: in just the US every year, So that's two hundred

777
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:09,800
Speaker 1: total right since right so recorded incidents and then forty

778
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:13,400
Speaker 1: one million people of year And of those two under cases,

779
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 1: experts couldn't find a single report of a child killed

780
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:19,200
Speaker 1: or seriously injured from a contaminated treat received during trick

781
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:24,280
Speaker 1: or treating. But meanwhile, like you know, just just maybe

782
00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,440
Speaker 1: keep your eyes on the road the like during Halloween

783
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,839
Speaker 1: instead of worrying about this ship, Like there's way more

784
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,440
Speaker 1: pedestrian accidents and ship because people are out on the street.

785
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 1: Oh you're yeah, you're saying of like a car, a

786
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 1: car hitting somebody is the big the actual threat on Holliday,

787
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:46,200
Speaker 1: not fucking you know, wavy candies and the only thing, Like,

788
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 1: I do think it's fair for people like to be

789
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:54,440
Speaker 1: wary that they like get not give it out, like

790
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 1: because there there is now more weed candy than we've

791
00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:02,839
Speaker 1: ever had like our houses them before. But like I

792
00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 1: think that's pretty standard. But yeah, just keep make sure

793
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 1: you keep it separate from any other candy, and I'm

794
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 1: sure you're gonna be fine. Like, whoa, I don't know

795
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:17,000
Speaker 1: what's the problem. I keep it separate. I don't bump

796
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:21,839
Speaker 1: me out. Man, Well you know, I I I'm sure

797
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:24,160
Speaker 1: by next year they'll find a new thing, or maybe

798
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,359
Speaker 1: it'll just be this all over. It'll be this every

799
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 1: year we're dead or weed is illegal. Well yeah, but

800
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:33,640
Speaker 1: you know, like you know why, I'm like, I'm kind

801
00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:36,680
Speaker 1: of proud of US, US and Canada that there's only

802
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:40,280
Speaker 1: been two hundred incidents since nineteen fifty eight. Like you

803
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,880
Speaker 1: you'd think with like how things have espposedly deterior in

804
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:44,919
Speaker 1: the United States as it relates to like like these

805
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 1: like large scale violent events that like at the end

806
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 1: of the people like the Halloween. Man, don't funk, come

807
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: on now, don't like let's I don't have the energy

808
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:56,320
Speaker 1: for that. And that's just that's no one wants that burden.

809
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,360
Speaker 1: And even in the language that was used to describe

810
00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 1: those two hundred incidents, he said contaminated and there's no deaths,

811
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:05,239
Speaker 1: And so part of me thinks a bunch of that

812
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 1: might just be like seed Snickers, Yeah, got the runs

813
00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 1: or something like that was contaminated because I'm sure, yeah,

814
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 1: like how do you I mean the energy that would

815
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 1: go into contaminating a candy and like being the front

816
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 1: for like the face that like, you know, people, there's

817
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 1: a way to figure out where the candy came from

818
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:30,600
Speaker 1: on some level. You know, it's not a totally like

819
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:34,080
Speaker 1: anonymous act because people are knocking on your door and

820
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:37,200
Speaker 1: so like, do I remember anyone weird? Yeah, there was

821
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 1: that person just laughing, just sadistically the whole time and

822
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 1: had no costume on, and right before they gave us again,

823
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:45,960
Speaker 1: he said, hold on one second. They had closed the

824
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 1: door for a couple of minutes, then open and be

825
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:51,279
Speaker 1: like now it's ready. That person, we may want to

826
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:54,720
Speaker 1: look into that. It's it's also such a weird level

827
00:49:54,800 --> 00:50:00,880
Speaker 1: of distrust of just people because my understanding of you know,

828
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:03,840
Speaker 1: strangers who like to kill other strangers is they like

829
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 1: to they like to see it like they like to,

830
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,800
Speaker 1: you know, get their hands dirty, and that is something

831
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:14,200
Speaker 1: that satisfies them. But to to put all that work

832
00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 1: in and then just know that somewhere out there in

833
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 1: the distance someone is suffering, that doesn't really seem like

834
00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 1: if that's if that's really happening, then we should be

835
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,520
Speaker 1: just as scared as the candy you buy at the

836
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 1: grocery store, because would be just as easy to go

837
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 1: and put a bunch of contaminent candy at the grocery

838
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,680
Speaker 1: store and have people eat that. If that's what's getting

839
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 1: your rocks off, come on, don't give these freaks any ideas. Yeah,

840
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 1: it's I I can't think of a worth or less

841
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 1: satisfying prank. No, And even like as a kid, you're like,

842
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,160
Speaker 1: you're not trying to funk with someone's I don't know,

843
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 1: maybe because you grow up like like Halloween candy sanctified,

844
00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 1: so even and like as you get older you're like, no, no, no,

845
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 1: come on, don't suck her with that. That's not what

846
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,319
Speaker 1: you're gonna do. Anything like throw shit at someone's house,

847
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 1: Like you know, light a bag of ship on fire,

848
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:10,520
Speaker 1: t P eggs, that stuff. That's a prank, not not

849
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 1: violating the sacred trust hollow Halloween candy distribution. Yeah it's

850
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:22,440
Speaker 1: sacred TP, but the TPS ship on it. But the

851
00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:28,319
Speaker 1: eggs a bitting your ass, Like how do you keep

852
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:32,080
Speaker 1: them from crack and jack? That's pretty impressive, a lot

853
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:36,080
Speaker 1: of control, man, a lot of control, a lot of meditating. Yeah,

854
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:39,560
Speaker 1: it's it's very dumb that there have been, Like I

855
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 1: do think it's there are valid things to like with

856
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:47,480
Speaker 1: tons of candy around the house, if you have we

857
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:50,280
Speaker 1: gummies around the house like that. That's something that actually

858
00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:53,440
Speaker 1: happened at a barbecue that we covered on this show

859
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 1: because it's kind of funny to imagine, but like I

860
00:51:57,520 --> 00:51:59,439
Speaker 1: think a bunch of five year olds got their hands

861
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:04,520
Speaker 1: on their parents sur patch kids THHD gummies and like

862
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:06,720
Speaker 1: had to go to the emergency room. So I guess

863
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:10,279
Speaker 1: not funny, but just kids are already so weird, so

864
00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:13,319
Speaker 1: I was just curious what that would look like. But

865
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:17,759
Speaker 1: it's all happening by accident, it's not nobody is doing

866
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:22,280
Speaker 1: this on purpose. So yes, beware, don't leave your fucking

867
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,640
Speaker 1: weed gummies out and like next to your kids fucking

868
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:29,440
Speaker 1: Halloween candy. That's that's. Oh you should see me like

869
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:33,040
Speaker 1: whenever I have like younger, like a family over like

870
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 1: I had, like the d e A is about to

871
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:36,920
Speaker 1: pull up. Yeah, like yo, they're gonna have to do

872
00:52:37,120 --> 00:52:41,560
Speaker 1: work to find this ship because yeah, like you absolutely

873
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:44,000
Speaker 1: like you have to understand you know that you you

874
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:46,640
Speaker 1: have to respect the power in that In the wrong hands,

875
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,360
Speaker 1: it can do a lot of damage. Not even just kids,

876
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,840
Speaker 1: like people in their twenties. My my wife when she

877
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 1: was younger, showed up at a house party hungry and

878
00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:58,880
Speaker 1: proceeded to eat a bunch of pastries off the table

879
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:03,400
Speaker 1: that weren't able, and it was like so she downed

880
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 1: like a whole dinner's worth of of edible weed pastries

881
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:10,480
Speaker 1: and then had such a severe panic attack that she

882
00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 1: had to go home and just sleep in a snowsuit

883
00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:18,560
Speaker 1: to like sweat it out. I love that method of like,

884
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gotta put the full body snowsuit on

885
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 1: and just sweat this thing out. Oh did it work though?

886
00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 1: Is that that she said? It worked? Like by the

887
00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:32,880
Speaker 1: next day she felt like better. But but I agree

888
00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:34,760
Speaker 1: with what you're saying. It's like there is a risk,

889
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:37,719
Speaker 1: but it's more like at home and be careful. It's

890
00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:42,719
Speaker 1: not like be scared of people premeditated trying to do right. Yeah,

891
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:45,279
Speaker 1: well that's yeah. I think that's the that's the thing

892
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,760
Speaker 1: that everyone wants to just sort of foster and everyone

893
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,360
Speaker 1: at the moment. It's like be afraid of fucking every

894
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,160
Speaker 1: single person out there, because you don't know who the

895
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:55,239
Speaker 1: fun they are. Yes, there's no way they could just

896
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,839
Speaker 1: be like you, another human being who's trying their best

897
00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:00,200
Speaker 1: to just survive in the world day to day. They

898
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:03,439
Speaker 1: want the cops look at these sick funs out here

899
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 1: with nerve ropes full of drugs to get your kids

900
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:12,319
Speaker 1: fucked up. Man. I am like I I will say this,

901
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:15,120
Speaker 1: I will never act on it. I'm very curious what

902
00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 1: my kids would be like stoned because they're already so

903
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:24,200
Speaker 1: like prone to uh like pod head thinking. I'm just

904
00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:27,480
Speaker 1: if anybody who was at that barbecue who saw those

905
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:34,200
Speaker 1: five year olds high, if anyone who was at that

906
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:37,840
Speaker 1: barbecue with those kids and saw how they were behaving,

907
00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:41,319
Speaker 1: I'm just curious, like what that what that looks like? Well,

908
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:42,719
Speaker 1: I think it's funny because like the first time I

909
00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:45,160
Speaker 1: smoked weed as a kid, I was like, this is great.

910
00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 1: I feel like more like a kid right now. Everything.

911
00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:54,319
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's just slippery slopers. Yeah, not trying to

912
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,960
Speaker 1: grow up. I'm just trying to be me to Yeah exactly.

913
00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:00,919
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just trying to laugh harder at this ship.

914
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:04,800
Speaker 1: They bring them to the r They're like our kids

915
00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:08,719
Speaker 1: got really cool all this we don't know what to do,

916
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 1: and they're like listening to safe Searge. I don't even know.

917
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:18,279
Speaker 1: It's like they're real hip and ship. Yeah, but my

918
00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:21,800
Speaker 1: five year old asked me how his bones move him once,

919
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:27,400
Speaker 1: and I means and that you're like that fucked you up.

920
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:31,000
Speaker 1: You're like, man, that was definitely a thought I have

921
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:34,840
Speaker 1: had while I was high. Yeah, and then immediately forgotten.

922
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:43,680
Speaker 1: Let's talk really quickly about Dog the Bounty Hunters everywhere. Yeah,

923
00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:48,800
Speaker 1: so he, you know, as the Gabby Petito case continues

924
00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:53,480
Speaker 1: to just spin around in the headlines because of missing

925
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:58,880
Speaker 1: white woman's syndrome, Dog the Bounty Hunter was like, I'm

926
00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:01,200
Speaker 1: I'm on this ship. He so he started smelling some

927
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:06,080
Speaker 1: money and so he has decided to enter the search

928
00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:12,319
Speaker 1: for Gabby Potito's ex boyfriend who was like with her

929
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 1: when she died and like he disappeared into like a

930
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:20,759
Speaker 1: national park and you know, for to his credit, his

931
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:26,880
Speaker 1: investigation has already yielded a call from the boyfriend's family

932
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:29,040
Speaker 1: when Dogs the Bounty Hunter showed up at their house.

933
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,880
Speaker 1: Your emergency, um, Dog the Bounty Hunter and like, fucking

934
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:38,879
Speaker 1: won't leave me alone, right, now he's going full dark Night,

935
00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 1: like he's lived long enough to become the villain. Yeah, well, yeah,

936
00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:47,200
Speaker 1: he was also doing that. She was doubling down back

937
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:48,920
Speaker 1: when he said he could use the N word, like,

938
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 1: He's like, yo, I gotta invite to the cookout permanently,

939
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:53,399
Speaker 1: so you know I could say the N word, because

940
00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:56,200
Speaker 1: in two thousand seven, that phone call lead to him

941
00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:59,400
Speaker 1: dropping the M bomb multiple times, and not like in

942
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:03,160
Speaker 1: a I'm singing gold Digger like lyrics out loud type shit.

943
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,560
Speaker 1: He was like he was hitting that hard are and

944
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:09,640
Speaker 1: he his you know this at the time when I remember,

945
00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 1: I think it was Larry King. He was like, yeah,

946
00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:13,520
Speaker 1: I'm friends was Snoop and you know he's like they

947
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:16,200
Speaker 1: say like, hey, what's up my end? And you know,

948
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,560
Speaker 1: I feel like because of that, you know I can

949
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 1: I can say it too, and he kept he came

950
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:24,760
Speaker 1: back around to talk about those fucking topics again in

951
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:28,640
Speaker 1: one I was like, why are you still talking about this?

952
00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 1: For like, you're lucky you got canceled before before people

953
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:35,440
Speaker 1: didn't like knew how to cancel people. Because he's like

954
00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,919
Speaker 1: back in like, hey, remember that, I'm here to say

955
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 1: again M And I'm just like Eminem and you're like what,

956
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, he's like I have more black friends

957
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:49,320
Speaker 1: and Eminem. Okay, there you go, sir. Name dropping Snoop

958
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:52,919
Speaker 1: doesn't count because not just because having a black friend

959
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 1: doesn't let you do that, but because that's the only

960
00:57:55,320 --> 00:58:00,280
Speaker 1: other guy who has dog in his name. Like him

961
00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:03,040
Speaker 1: being like, no, I know Snoop Dog. It's like, well, no,

962
00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 1: that's not your black friend. That's your other friend whose

963
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:10,240
Speaker 1: name has dog. Like, yeah, y'all have dog solidarity. You

964
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 1: know that's about it. Um. Yeah. The New York Times

965
00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:18,120
Speaker 1: did like a lengthy profile on him, I think this

966
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:21,440
Speaker 1: year about like how he's coping after the death of

967
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 1: his wife. He had a pulmonary embolism thanks to testosterone

968
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:30,680
Speaker 1: supplements and refused to stay in the hospital. He literally

969
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:33,800
Speaker 1: pushed in orderly up against a wall to escape and

970
00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:37,640
Speaker 1: was only convinced to get medical help after an intervention

971
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:45,520
Speaker 1: from doctor Oz. So, like the the head professions on TV,

972
00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:49,200
Speaker 1: like the TV Doctor and the TV Bounty Hunter are

973
00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:54,960
Speaker 1: apparently like friends somewhere with like Judge Judy probably and

974
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 1: when you reinforcing like my childish idea of like how

975
00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 1: TV works, one, I bet I bet dog the bounty hunter.

976
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,640
Speaker 1: I think Dr Oz is all the celebrities doctors, right,

977
00:59:07,040 --> 00:59:09,400
Speaker 1: but it seems like this is just him coming back

978
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:12,480
Speaker 1: and be like I feel like I wasn't fully canceled before,

979
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:14,800
Speaker 1: and like it now would be a great time for

980
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:19,760
Speaker 1: me to just like formally formally get canceled. Because he's

981
00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:22,240
Speaker 1: also like I thought I had the past, he said quote,

982
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:24,320
Speaker 1: I thought I had to pass in the Black tribe

983
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:28,040
Speaker 1: to use it, kind of like Eminem. Eminem doesn't use it.

984
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:30,720
Speaker 1: Eminem doesn't use the N word, And I know he has,

985
00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:34,160
Speaker 1: like years ago there was like a track and a

986
00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 1: lot of people like, we know what the fun was that,

987
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:40,680
Speaker 1: But in his like professional career, that's not what. So

988
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:42,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if again his idea is like, well,

989
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:46,600
Speaker 1: the white guy who raps I say it right, No not,

990
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think so. Dog. And if you

991
00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:54,840
Speaker 1: think you have the past because black tribe anything, you don't, Yeah, yeah,

992
00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:58,960
Speaker 1: in the black I'm like, what he needs to chill out,

993
00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 1: someone needs to sneak come some some dirty Halloween candies.

994
01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:06,919
Speaker 1: Yeah right. And if he doesn't, I feel like maybe

995
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:10,360
Speaker 1: the feds are gonna go like suicide squad style, and

996
01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:13,520
Speaker 1: you know, let the Tiger King out of jail to

997
01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 1: go catch Dog Hunter. Yeah right, it's a trap. They

998
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,920
Speaker 1: released the Tiger King to get Dog to draw in

999
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:27,240
Speaker 1: the bounty hunter apparently, so I didn't realize that like

1000
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:30,800
Speaker 1: his origin story. But back in two thousand three, this guy,

1001
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:34,400
Speaker 1: Andrew Luster, who is the heir to the Max Factor

1002
01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:38,520
Speaker 1: cosmetic fortune, was arrested for drugging and raping three women

1003
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:41,760
Speaker 1: and skipped out on his one million dollar bail. Was

1004
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 1: convicted in absentia and sentenced to a d twenty four

1005
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:49,440
Speaker 1: years in prison. And Dog was like, this is this

1006
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:52,320
Speaker 1: is this is how I make my career went and

1007
01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:55,920
Speaker 1: like just like spent his whole like like all the

1008
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,720
Speaker 1: time he had hunting this guy down. But like the

1009
01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:03,240
Speaker 1: way he like brought the guy in was wildly illegal,

1010
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:05,920
Speaker 1: Like bounty hunters are illegal in Mexico. And he went

1011
01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:08,760
Speaker 1: down to Mexico and just like grabbed him and like

1012
01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:13,200
Speaker 1: through like kidnapped him essentially, and then immediately got arrested

1013
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,880
Speaker 1: for that. Like it went like threw him in the

1014
01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:19,000
Speaker 1: back of an suv, pulled out, and then the police

1015
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:20,800
Speaker 1: pulled him over from where like what the funk are

1016
01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:23,840
Speaker 1: you doing? Man? But he still knows all sorts of

1017
01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:27,520
Speaker 1: fucking money for for that, So that that seems to

1018
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 1: be why he's trying to get elbows way back into

1019
01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:35,440
Speaker 1: the national spotlight at this key moment when we're all

1020
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:41,120
Speaker 1: super you know, appreciative of cops who are racist and

1021
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:46,400
Speaker 1: do things the you know, via violence and toxicity. Like

1022
01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:50,360
Speaker 1: that's he's his moment is here. I guess that is

1023
01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:53,320
Speaker 1: what he's thinking. Yeah, I don't know. Again, he's still

1024
01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 1: almost a million dollars in unpaid legal fees because of that. Yeah,

1025
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:02,000
Speaker 1: that's a fucking from that. First, the first thing from

1026
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:06,480
Speaker 1: his illegal jaunt down to Puerto Vata to be an

1027
01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 1: illegal bounty hunter. But then when he did it, he

1028
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 1: was like, hey, it was if I got this guy

1029
01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 1: in custody, was worth me going to jail for a

1030
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,920
Speaker 1: few days. And I mean just in general, he is,

1031
01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:22,120
Speaker 1: you know, he profits from a predatory prism funnel system

1032
01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:25,560
Speaker 1: that disproportionately affects the poor and people of color. Again,

1033
01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:29,080
Speaker 1: like you said, uses the N word freely and has

1034
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:34,520
Speaker 1: repeatedly lobbied against bail reform, even recording a robot call

1035
01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:39,960
Speaker 1: warning people in California about proposed bail reform bill to

1036
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:44,320
Speaker 1: so I can give a less compelling robot call you

1037
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 1: get and starts off like, hey, it's dog Dwayne Chapman,

1038
01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:52,520
Speaker 1: the bounty hunter, and like, get shut the okay if

1039
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:54,960
Speaker 1: you're not something dog food, I don't think I honestly

1040
01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:56,960
Speaker 1: will listen to you because I don't even get I

1041
01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:00,240
Speaker 1: mean perspect you as a bail bondsman, bounty hunter. Mh.

1042
01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:04,120
Speaker 1: He definitely learned from that first incident because he was like, well,

1043
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:07,560
Speaker 1: I may not have succeeded in being like an actual

1044
01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,520
Speaker 1: bounty hunter, but if this was just for the cameras,

1045
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:14,160
Speaker 1: it looked good like and then that's the route he

1046
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:17,640
Speaker 1: went down. Yeah, and I'll just I'll just keep that

1047
01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:20,560
Speaker 1: million dollar tab just hanging on the hook bear and

1048
01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:24,640
Speaker 1: I'll get to it eventually. Yeah. Yeah, more on that later, Sean,
