18
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 1: haven't been in three years because of everything, so I

19
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: have to keep asking you how is it there? Well? Weatherwise,

20
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: it's been a little back and forth. September has not

21
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: decided whether or not it's going to be fully yet

22
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: it's been a little wild otherwise. We're in the middle

23
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: of some I guess political stuff because Suga is gonna

24
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: be our our current prime minister who was appointed by

25
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: Prime Minister Abbey last year when he quit because he

26
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: couldn't well. He said it's for his health, but he

27
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: said he couldn't really handle all the criticism for his uh,

28
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: his his reaction to COVID basically. But now Suga is

29
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: the one who's stepping down. So everyone's talking about who

30
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: the government is going to appoint a new prime minister

31
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:29,959
Speaker 1: and maybe we'll get an election. It's still not clear. Yeah, yeah,

32
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: that's what it's our things about to kick off there too,

33
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: like campaigns and things pretty soon. Well they're saying if

34
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: there is an election, that will be in October, but

35
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: everything has been like maybe maybe maybe, maybe I ain't right,

36
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 1: so they might just put someone up in this position again,

37
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: just like last year, which is not great because it's

38
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: already been pretty bad and it's gonna still stay right

39
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,519
Speaker 1: wing when we might get our first female prime minister

40
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: who is basically a fusion of market that so love

41
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 1: to see that. Yeah, yeah, especially in a changing world

42
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 1: right now. We need we need more people who are

43
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: who want to conserve the old way, the terrible, terrible

44
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 1: fucking recipe. Pretend it's say that'll that'll work. I mean,

45
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: that's what COVID deniers want to do. Like you, gotta

46
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 1: keep up. I know it's tough. I know things are

47
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: moving quick, but that's that's the challenge of living in

48
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: this era. Mm hmm. You guys were talking before we

49
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: started recording. You're both stepping on the same beverage. Yeah yeah,

50
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: but yeah, Mookie, that that Barley tea. It's so easy

51
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: to make it. You can just throw your tea bag

52
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: in your little you know, picture or whatever for a

53
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: couple hours. Then it's just gold. Uh and it's very healthy.

54
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: And then you cut a bunch of ice in it

55
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: and just slam it. I mean, I keep it in

56
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: my refrigerator, comes out, you know what I mean. But

57
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: it's it's also it's got pealth benefits, you know, antioxidants

58
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: of vitamins is good for your digestion, and a bunch

59
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,839
Speaker 1: of caffeine, right that not just fucking fuel you none

60
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: of that. Sorry, Jack just wasn't so popular. Bro. Wait,

61
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: so what does it do? Wait, like, so what does

62
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 1: it do for me? Like, how does it take me

63
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 1: out of self so that I just don't feel anything? No,

64
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: for me, it's just I think of like being in Japan,

65
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: because this is just something that was always in the

66
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: refrigerator at like any of my family member's houses, especially

67
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: in the summer. So when the weather is warm, I

68
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: love to bust out that moogicha And I tell people,

69
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: if you like something that's like water, it's it's not

70
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: there's no sugar or anything like that. It's not a

71
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 1: civic You just have a little of that. Yeah, good

72
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: for you. It's almost like a more gentle water like

73
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: because it the barley taste is like so subtle that

74
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: it almost replaces like any after it tastes that water

75
00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: might have Yeah for sure, Yeah, yeah, definitely. Emily. We

76
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: like to ask our guests, what is something from your

77
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: search history? Something from my search history is so embarrassing.

78
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: But I have been saying I've been talking about poppers

79
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: on stage, and I realized I didn't know what poppers were,

80
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: So I was like, I need to like know what

81
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: I'm saying, you know, just as like I don't know

82
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,359
Speaker 1: Courtesy to the audience, because I've been talking about Lexi

83
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: pro as my poppers, and now I realized that's not

84
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 1: even They don't even that doesn't make sense because poppers

85
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 1: are not little tiny pills that you pop like, you know,

86
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: like I didn't know how people because I'm a little nerd,

87
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know how people to look up

88
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: poppers and where to get them and how to get them.

89
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: And now I try. Now I know you could get

90
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: a metal bodega or something. Um, yeah, that's why they

91
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: were called poppers. And then I had to beg of popper?

92
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: Is that? The movie is the Other Night? And it

93
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:07,359
Speaker 1: was great, Yeah, wow, wow wow to clarify because I

94
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: feel like I only just learned what poppers are. There's

95
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: something you like inhale, right, and they get high and

96
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: also losing your muscles, including your butt hole. Yeah wait,

97
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: did you have a moment where someone's like, do you

98
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: know what poppers are? I always do this, do you guys?

99
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: Did you do this? And I start talking about something

100
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: for a while, and then I realized I don't know

101
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: what the hell I'm talking about. And then I'm like, oh,

102
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 1: I should google that for sure. Oh yeah, you know,

103
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: we do. It's called this podcast. It's called you're listening

104
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: to it? He stopped me. Nobody told me, Emily, what

105
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: are you talking about? They were just like, let her

106
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: carry on, she will figure it out eventually. Or did

107
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: they just think, wait, I'm sorry, how are you using

108
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 1: it in context? Again? I'm trying to even see if

109
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: someone could see. So, Yeah, I was talking about like

110
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 1: depression shin on stage about you know, like I've sused

111
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: old depression four times a year. Then and then like

112
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: I don't like pro. I'm you know, LEXI pro, I take,

113
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: I do poppers I call alexipro or something like that,

114
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: and I just didn't one of the drugs scratching though

115
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: You're like, yeah, interesting relationship with her, yeah, or like

116
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: it's a metaphorical relaxation of this thinker. There are so

117
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,119
Speaker 1: many people who went home after one of your stand

118
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: up sets and tried anal on Lexa pro and had,

119
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: you know, makes interesting experiences. Oh, I hope they mean

120
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: that's really bad because if you start lexapro, I don't,

121
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: I mean, this is gross. But if you're going to

122
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: poop a lot because I didn't even poppers, man, you're

123
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: talking about poppers are my alex pro what's something you

124
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: think is overrated? You know. I was going through my

125
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: list of overrated things, which is alphabetical, and I got

126
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: I got to for you. I don't know if we'll

127
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: we'll agree on the first one, but I think the

128
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: met Gala this year struck me destruct me as kind

129
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: of disassociated from the world. And I felt bad because

130
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 1: I love museums. But I was like, there's a lot

131
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: of other ship going on, you know, and there's so

132
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: much money involved in this, and could that money go

133
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: somewhere else? So maybe it's just me being a curmudgeon.

134
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, what what do you guys think about that?

135
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: Like I, I don't want to be people should do

136
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: what they want with their money, I guess, you know,

137
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: And it's it's kind of high roading folks to say like,

138
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: oh how much did that cost to blah blah blah

139
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: blah blah. And I loved I loved the AOC dress

140
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: tax the rich right, And there was there was another

141
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: one we were talking about earlier that what was that

142
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: there was another patriarchy? Yes, yeah, that one, But I

143
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,839
Speaker 1: I don't know, I felt like maybe there was a

144
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: disconnected felt a little like hunger games with all the

145
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: stuff people have been through. Absolutely, I feel like the

146
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:12,559

Speaker 1: I don't know, it's it's you know, everyone's trying to

153
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: do what they can do, something seem meaningful, other things

154
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: like you know, at the same time, like just me personally,

155
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 1: I'm not as interested in the met galas that used

156
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: to be. So I forgot it happened until I saw

157
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 1: the picture is gonna be like al right, right right

158
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: right right over right, Yeah, yeah, I don't know what

159
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: the who the audience is exactly. Yeah. I mean that's

160
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 1: a good point again, Like I'm I love museums, and

161
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: the first thing I did was I had not really

162
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 1: known much about this event and so I was like,

163
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: all right, what are they raising money for? You know

164
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: what I mean? Because if they're raising money for like literacy,

165
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: or they're raising money to combat disease or something. Then

166
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: I'm the one being an asshole, right, So I had

167
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: to had to check that real quick, and it goes

168
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: to is fundraising for the Costume Institute of the met Anyway,

169
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: I I shouldn't yuck somebody's yum, you know what I mean?

170
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 1: The fashion is important and cool and like a totally

171
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: valid art form. And yes, like historic fashions are are

172
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:42,719
Speaker 1: very interesting. Um, they got like seven centuries worth in

173
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: their collections, so it's I think it's a repository of

174
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: some amazing human feats, which is why I had a

175
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: second answer for overrated. And I'm sure it's something that's

176
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: been on the show before. It's definitely not a hot take.

177
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 1: I think monarchies are overrated. Again, I stopped with the

178
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 1: ms on the list, just like in general, all monarchies

179
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: I feel like are overrated. And a lot of folks

180
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:10,719
Speaker 1: who live in monarchical societies have very clearly told me

181
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: that they disagree with that, with that idea, yeah, because

182
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: there's this symbolism, you know, and there's this culture, there's

183
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: this tradition, this defines our you know, group identity or whatever.

184
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: But also I have to point out there are some

185
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: there are some royals who would tend to agree with

186
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 1: that because they left in the case the UK, right,

187
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: and they to Canada, I think, and California, California, and uh,

188
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: I I don't know, you know, maybe one of my

189
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:43,839
Speaker 1: friends was telling me I was being a jerk about

190
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: this because he was like, you know what it is, dude,

191
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: I think you're just mad that you weren't born into

192
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: a monarchy because they would be all about it. They

193
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: hate us because I had Yeah, I had a momentary

194
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 1: the Trump presidency where I started wondering if monarchies are

195
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: better because they like separate out the pageant tree and

196
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 1: like the like there's something almost like spiritual about like

197
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: the what like the role of the monarchy and it.

198
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 1: But they're completely powerless, which is like now nowadays, which

199
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: I think is nice, so that you just have bureaucrats

200
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: who are in the leadership roles and not somebody who,

201
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:33,839
Speaker 1: like you're trying to ascribe this like religious like aura

202
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: around which I think America has the monarchy and the

203
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: prime minister role kind of combined into a single position

204
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: in the president and that's our country. Yeah. But yeah,

205
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: also the monarchy is kind of weird. It's kind of weird.

206
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: I mean the end of the day, no matter who

207
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: you think is empower, there's plenty of information out there

208
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: to tell you who is really empower And then you

209
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: go from there because it's it seems like they're no

210
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 1: one is like seems more or less susceptible to this

211
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. But I don't know, it's I'm like,

212
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: i've gotta marriage. Yeah we have, like ours is the

213
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: first family and that it's just put in. Everyone just

214
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 1: thinks that no one can do wrong there because the president,

215
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: Like there is this weird default that the president could

216
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: never do anything wrong when you say things like presidents

217
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: are most they're you know, their war criminals. If you

218
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: really look at all on paper they're committing oh at all, Like,

219
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 1: let's not talk about it, not my president. Yeah, well

220
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: there's a reason that the US has never agreed to

221
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: giving the International Criminal Court any sort of jurisdiction and

222
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: pump the brakes real quick if the conversation ever gets

223
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 1: within a mile of that direction. But I like, I

224
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: see what you're saying. There's also definitely a valid argument

225
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 1: that the US and practice is an aristocracy. It has

226
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: a lot of aristocratic values, you know, like to your point,

227
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: miles follow the money to find the power, things like

228
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: that it goes quickly into some cynical, possibly conspiratorial territory,

229
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: but that does not make it untrue. And you know that, Jack,

230
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: the thing about that powerless you say, we're all relatively

231
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: toothless idea of a monarchy, like a constitutional monarchy or

232
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: some other kind of copy added monarchy. If I remember

233
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: the law correctly. In the case of the United Kingdom,

234
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 1: the queen can technically do a lot of stuff like

235
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: can make a decree or can change the law, but

236
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: it's freezed some something like comma, with the understanding that

237
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: they won't actually do this right, which is yeah. I

238
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: mean that was the Earl of mont Botton in The Crown,

239
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: Like the last season of The Crown, there was a

240
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: like planned coup that they were trying to get like

241
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: this very popular ish like lord Aristocrat to organize, but

242
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: they would need the sign off of the queen, which

243
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 1: seems crazy, like if we get the queen, we're good.

244
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean it's not it's not perfect, but

245
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: in practice, what is something you think is underrated? Maggie

246
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: Late night fast food drive throughs MHM last night after

247
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: a show Danielle Perez and I went trying to find

248
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: some just some drive through fast food place, and it's

249
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: like this world is like opening back up, and like

250
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: l a restaurants never did stay open for like super long,

251
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: so these are kind of important. We went to like

252
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: two different drive throughs that were closed, and it's like,

253
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 1: excuse me, sir, Like we are in the middle of

254
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: we're hungry in a pandle, Like what are y'all doing?

255
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: Like this isn't necessary. I feel like late night fast

256
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: food drive throughs are unnecessary cog in the late night

257
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: sit Actually, this is why these are all essential jobs,

258
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like everything that is like

259
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: to keep us sustained, give us sustenance, whatever grocery store,

260
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: fast food things like that, we we need that, we

261
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: need to we need to exalt these people because at

262
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: the same time, there's so many times when you're left

263
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: with like the only option you do have is possibly

264
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: some kind of fast food or a gas station. I've

265
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: done before, and you don't want to make that. You

266
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: don't want to make that one am dinner at a

267
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: gas station. Yeah, it's not good. Sometimes you're just like,

268
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 1: oh man, I haven't eaten since lunch, and I got

269
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: to drive back to like wherever I live. Let me

270
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: just have a little something, a little nosh while I'm driving,

271
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: just to kind of, you know, keep my wits about

272
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: me and so I'm not like, you know, hungry and tired.

273
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: And it's that kind of thing. Who came through for

274
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: you after you you did that that search. Jack in

275
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: the Box came through, Jack Box came through. I will say,

276
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: though I am mad at Jack in the Box. Let

277
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: me say this to a bunch give you the floor

278
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: for this, thank you. A bunch of different fast food

279
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: eateries have taken away there french fry and squeezy cheese

280
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: kind of situation. And that's another underrated thing. Jack in

281
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: the Box got rid of their potato wedges. Taco Bell

282
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 1: keeps sucking around and taking their nacho fries back, and

283
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: when they bring them back, they bring them back for

284
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 1: a little more expensive and it's not a huge deal.

285
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: But don't think I didn't notice Taco Bell that that's

286
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: what y'all are doing. And it's like, cheese spreads are

287
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 1: so good, clearly, so someone needs to have a consistent

288
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: cheese fry on their menu. That's all I'm saying about it. Yeah, yeah,

289
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: it's like shake shack. But then they're not open late,

290
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: and that's like, you know, it's like that's a that's

291
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 1: a spend, you know, but you want to have because

292
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 1: oh remember when McDonald's did it for a second though,

293
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: they had cheesy bacon fries. It was like experimental thing

294
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 1: and then they took it from us. But yeah, I

295
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: love that's usually like that. It's funny that you say that,

296
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 1: because that's when in my mind, I go, oh, I'm

297
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: not giving a fuck about what I'm meeting today. It's

298
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 1: I usually go for some kind of cheese fry conglomeration

299
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: that is not good. But it doesn't feel like fries.

300
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: It feels more like I'm having a meal. There's cheese

301
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: because there because I need a fork. Yeah, suddenly the

302
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: context is different and this might have nutrients. I mean,

303
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 1: there's so many wild things happening with the supply chain.

304
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 1: If anybody knows why the cheesy fries keep going away,

305
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,639
Speaker 1: let us know, because yeah, that's not unacceptable. We're probably

306
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: just in a minority, you know. Unfortunately, it's probably always money.

307
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: You know, but who doesn't like cheesy fries? Who's like, oh, yeah,

308
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 1: these fries are good enough as is. I'm glad there's

309
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 1: no good cheese on them. Yeah, nobody on this podcast.

310
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 1: Yeah we got Look, we got enough of America's problems

311
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:59,679
Speaker 1: to deal with in this show, so stay focused. All right,

312
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll come back and

313
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: talk about some lesser problems. And we're back, and let's

314
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: check in with the California recall. The vote is mere

315
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 1: days away, one day, mere day away, and it you know,

316
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:32,199
Speaker 1: the numbers, the polls, which are absolutely no indication of

317
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: what's going to happen, but it does affect how people

318
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: think about what's going to happen. Seemed to suggest Newsome

319
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 1: has has firmed up his position, but yeah, he's basically

320
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 1: just kind of gestured at the GOP and been like,

321
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 1: that is what you want. Yeah, the in the beginning, everyone,

322
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 1: I remember the first when a lot of the early

323
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: polling came out, You're like, oh my god, there's a

324
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 1: real fuck. There's a huge enthusiasm gap between Republicans who

325
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 1: just want to get get one in to try and

326
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 1: you know, out the governor and replace it with you know,

327
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 1: fucking want to be fascist Larry elder Well, and because

328
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 1: of the messaging that's come out because you know, they

329
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: relied on the powers of like Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders,

330
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,360
Speaker 1: Elizabeth Warren. I think Joe Biden is gonna have made

331
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,199
Speaker 1: an appearance or at some point, you know, like you

332
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:32,479
Speaker 1: have Obama tweeting about this and so many ads that

333
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: the gap has begun to tighten, and yeah, like you're saying,

334
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 1: this whole thing has nothing to really do about like, yo,

335
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 1: look what I did for the state. Because let's let's

336
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,880
Speaker 1: be really clear, at the moment, Gavin Newsom hasn't decided

337
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: where he stands, like on a bill that is trying

338
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: to restructure warehouse standards that would essentially be it's very

339
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: much pointed at Amazon to give people, you know, time

340
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: to urinate, and he's still kind of like, hmm, look,

341
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 1: let me let me consider this. So we kind of

342
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,199
Speaker 1: know we get with Gavin Newsom, but in comparison, what

343
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: he's doing is, hey, look over there, look at what

344
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna do. It's just essentially that if you pick

345
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,959
Speaker 1: the other guy, it's gonna exacerbate coronavirus the like the

346
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 1: pandemic because they're going to repeal all of the health

347
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: and safety measures and just basically being like, yeah, they're

348
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: gonna be like RHN de Santis or Donald Trump, and

349
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,119
Speaker 1: that has I guess been enough for people are like,

350
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, yeah, we don't want that because he's

351
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: not he's not talking about his own record at all.

352
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 1: Every politician's dream, Yeah, running against a level of incompetence

353
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,679
Speaker 1: or a bob that is being lowered so rapidly that

354
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: all you have to do is stand in front of

355
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,360
Speaker 1: the soft focus of the nothing you've done, point over

356
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 1: there and be like, oh yeah, that looks pretty bad.

357
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 1: Huh right, Okay, yeah, I know, I I don't I'm

358
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 1: not really being unequivocal about whether I believe workers should

359
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 1: have the time to pee. But look at this though,

360
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: But get a lout of this guy. Look at this guy.

361
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 1: He tried to he tried to he ate his mask

362
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: on the steps of the Capitol. I'm mean, this is

363
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 1: this your governor? I don't know, um, but yeah, speaking

364
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 1: of that low bar, they're loving it. But more than anything,

365
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 1: it seems like the Democratic Party is also really starting

366
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: to see something that they can run on, which isn't like, hey,

367
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: remember all that ship we promised to you in the

368
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,360
Speaker 1: presidential election, it's going to be more a mid term

369
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 1: thing of like the pandemic could go fully backwards if

370
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: you give these people more power because they're telling you

371
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 1: what they want to do, which is like all bets

372
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: are off. Let's embrace COVID again because we don't want rules,

373
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: which seems a little bit dangerous because the COVID situation

374
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: and the national mood with regards to COVID seems to

375
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 1: change from day to day, so like that it seems

376
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: like I don't know, I I might just like do

377
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 1: the things you promised to do and uh actually like

378
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: protect work shusha by husha by no, no, no, we're

379
00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 1: just gonna hushaby hush. I assume part of it because

380
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 1: of like ideology and the belief that Democrats are actually

381
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: meant to impact positive change. But it's it's sort of

382
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: odd to me when I think about it that if

383
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 1: a Republican runs against the idea of being like, you know,

384
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: look over there, it could be so much worse when

385
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,360
Speaker 1: they when they don't have a platform or a campaign

386
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,439
Speaker 1: to run on and just which is just pointing at

387
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 1: something else. It feels like quite a powerful political weapon,

388
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: and it's useful when the Democrats to it. You're like, no, no,

389
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 1: you don't get this one. Like, you don't get to

390
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 1: do this one. You have to you have to have ideas, right,

391
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: And it's like, I don't know if that's the framework

392
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: through what you see it as well, but it's sort

393
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: of yeah, I can't quite get my head around it. Well,

394
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 1: it's the I mean kind of think about it that way.

395
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,360
Speaker 1: I feel like allows the Republicans to sort of set

396
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: the standard of what like, you know, the that you

397
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 1: just have to like fight at their level kind of

398
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 1: fox the fox the society. And unfortunately politicians do have power. Yeah,

399
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 1: they drag you down to the level and in that

400
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 1: guy you look at you down here in the mud. Yeah,

401
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,879
Speaker 1: and this whole thing is, you know, in regards to

402
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: these stricter rules, Gavin Newsom has been pretty strict comparatively

403
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: with how he's running California, and certain mandates like and

404
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: whether or not they're asking for higher safety standards in

405
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: schools and things like that have sort of been kind

406
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 1: of the front of mind for him. And but there's

407
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: also you know McAuliffe in Virginia he's also been pretty

408
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 1: strict and overall they've seen that when the governors do

409
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 1: that it pulls even well like independence, So they're really

410
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: kind of sort of maneuver drafting behind this sentiment that

411
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,479
Speaker 1: exists in the country that so many people are like,

412
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: why are we fucking hand holding people who have reject

413
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: any notion that these vaccines and just basic safety standards

414
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 1: are gonna help us get out of this pandemic, Like

415
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,439
Speaker 1: we we need to get a we we need to

416
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 1: sort of get side with people who are saying, please,

417
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: you know, lead us out of here, rather than kind

418
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 1: of like holding your hands up and be like, I

419
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 1: don't know, it's a local decision, like let's see what

420
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: you can do as a leader, and and that's that's

421
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,920
Speaker 1: been I guess they've they've appreciated that bump in enthusiasm

422
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: over things like that. Yeah, I mean I appreciate it.

423
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 1: Like every indication, like we're about to talk about Biden,

424
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: like making mandates kind of the standard I I. Every

425
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: indication seems to be that they've got pulling that suggests

426
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: Americans are for majority like not the people we're seeing

427
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: in those uh school board meetings, but no, but they're

428
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 1: just the loudest, and you know, a lot of people

429
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 1: point to the fact that a lot of that behavior is,

430
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,640
Speaker 1: you know, whether by design or not intended to give

431
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: people this like data to say like, you're not alone.

432
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 1: There's many of us like to join this movement when

433
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: it's it's a pretty vocal minority. And then along with

434
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 1: the governor election, I think we're also seeing what the

435
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 1: Republican strategy is going to be too, which is again

436
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: just screaming at the top of your lungs, they're gonna

437
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 1: steal the election. Because that's what Larry Elder, who has

438
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: been the sort of front runner if the recall goes through,

439
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 1: if it gets past, he said, quote, what I believe

440
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 1: is that no matter what they do, and I believe

441
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: that there might very well be shenanigans as it were

442
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: in the election, no matter what they do. So many

443
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 1: Californians are angry about what's going on. And then he

444
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 1: said he has a voter integrity board. I don't know

445
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 1: what that's like. I have a voter integrity board all

446
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: set up most of the actual lawyers. That's the ironing board. Yeah,

447
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: just checks the sort of all sorts of rods and stuff, right,

448
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: And they say, so when people hear things, they contact us.

449
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: We're going to file lawsuits in a timely fashion. Now

450
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: that may be tough, just the Shenanigan's argument because the

451
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: number of acts, you know, the number of actual Republicans

452
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 1: in the state mathematically sort of makes this a bit difficult.

453
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 1: If the turnout is around fifty in the state, then

454
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: they're like, for the recall a campaign to have to

455
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 1: be successful, they would need more people to turn up

456
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 1: for the recall as they did for people that voted

457
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 1: for Trump in right, so good. Yeah, Like we're starting

458
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: to look at like a lot of analysts are looking

459
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: at the number of ballots that have already come in

460
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 1: and like that it's double for Democrats and things like that.

461
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 1: Plus what the real numbers like as they see the projections.

462
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: What could happen? Again, we could be completely fucking up

463
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 1: and swearing in fucking Larry Elder at some point. Man,

464
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: all that to say, if you live in California, please vote.

465
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: I know it's perfect when we all have our misgivings,

466
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: especially with how this state could be run better, but

467
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:44,440
Speaker 1: absolutely again we're caught in a fucking stupid buyin area

468
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:48,679
Speaker 1: of like do you know Kroger Brand, Patrick Bateman or

469
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: the fucking radio host who's like man slavery was like

470
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 1: just such a joke, y'all. And I'm black, so you

471
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: can take my word for it. White racist people vote

472
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 1: California's I live in Oakland, you do, and I've been

473
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: I've been sitting him all sorts of fraudulent ballots. But

474
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: if I can vote, so too can you. If I

475
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 1: can vote all the way from auckland's your euse. And

476
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,400
Speaker 1: by the way, something we have brought up before, because

477
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 1: the way that Newsom and the Democrats have kind of

478
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: played this is that they tell you to vote no

479
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: on whether he should be recalled, but then they also

480
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 1: tell you not to vote in the second part of

481
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: the election, which is where you would pick a candidate

482
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 1: that would replace him if he were voted out, And

483
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: we didn't. We said we didn't know if like, if

484
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 1: you vote no, you can still vote for somebody, and

485
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: you can, so you're first voting no, don't replace him,

486
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: but if for some reason he does lose that and

487
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 1: just think about every major election and how much conservative

488
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 1: the conservative side has overperformed based on the polling, like

489
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 1: like from Brexit forward. So you have to get out there,

490
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: you have to vote no. But then I don't know,

491
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: vote like there's it does feel like the Democrats should

492
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: have consolidated behind a single candidate. I think that there's

493
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 1: a guy named Dr Brandon Ross because it's just a doctor.

494
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: He's not he's not like a politician or anything, but

495
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: he basically yeah, but like he's not like a less

496
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: he's just like I ran because it didn't seem like

497
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: there were any real Democrats who were running. Like the

498
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: leading Democrat candidate is a YouTube influencer who seems to

499
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: be like more economically libertarian than anything else. And so

500
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm going Dr Brandon Ross for the

501
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 1: win long shot. You're not gonna go for Kevin path Raft,

502
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: the YouTube financial advice guy. No, doesn't doesn't seem like

503
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,719
Speaker 1: kind of libertarian dude. He's the second like I think

504
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: vaccine mandates decision should be left to individual businesses in schools.

505
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: You're like, oh good bye, right, Yeah, So I don't

506
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 1: know if you want to like vote as insurance after

507
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 1: you vote, No, I would go Dr Brandon Ross because

508
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,479
Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, we're just gonna do the same thing

509
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: as Newsom did, which is better than all the other

510
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 1: alternatives that I've seen. He's doing the best stealth campaign.

511
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: He's like, I'm a fucking Republican. Well that's what I think.

512
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 1: I I legitimately think that's what's happening with Path Path

513
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: Rath is that he he seems like he has he's

514
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 1: like Republican policies. Well or yeah, I mean he's just

515
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 1: that thing of you know, socially accepting ish. But then

516
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 1: there's also a lot of like in your business my

517
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 1: business rights type stuff you do when you're a financial

518
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 1: advice guy, you're not really out. Youre advocating for the

519
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 1: working poor. You boys know he should be in Judge,

520
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: don't you who's that? Well, it's us, thank you, no,

521
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: not three of us. If we were in the drive,

522
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: thank you. All these kinks, no trouble, no ways. Get

523
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: this unholy Triumvirate into the Governor's mansion, please Montgomery ship watch.

524
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: That could be something in the future where people like,

525
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, I like this group of three bros.

526
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: Rather than fuck and let's talk about Chris Wallace real quick.

527
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 1: He interviewed uh Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts Pete Ricketts about

528
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 1: you know, his stance on the vaccine, and he brought

529
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: up what seems like a pretty straightforward question that i'd

530
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: I'd assume every single person who has ever questioned vaccine

531
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: mandates ask them yeah, I would ask themselves like this

532
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: would be the first thing, Like, was the difference between

533
00:31:55,680 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 1: this and the other vaccines that aren't mandated already? Well? This, Yeah,

534
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: this is the common ailment of the modern Republican politician

535
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 1: or in this age, which is like having to be

536
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: so deep in your own self delusion plus mental gymnastics

537
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 1: to try and rationalize how you aren't just a completely

538
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: just like manifested walking contradiction. And you know, he said

539
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: in before at the top of this interview, goes like, look, man,

540
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: I've been I'm not against vaccines, Okay, I've I've said

541
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 1: that they work, I know that they're safe. So you know,

542
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: it's this it's just about like kind of you know,

543
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 1: who do people trust. And then that's where Chris Wallas

544
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: is like, Governor Ricketts, I'm about to put a graphic up.

545
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: These are all the vaccines that you mandate in the

546
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: state of Nebraska for someone to go to school. He's like,

547
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: so protest this measles, monks, rubella, heap beat chicken pox.

548
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: And he's like, so, family, why don't you have the

549
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: same energy for these vaccines? And this is his answer

550
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 1: was and he tries very good to be like, oh,

551
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 1: you didn't ketch me, you didn't catch me off guard

552
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: with this. I'll just give a non answer. Are those

553
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: man dates that parents in your estate must comply with

554
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:06,959
Speaker 1: and do comply with routineley? Why is it that they're

555
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 1: not so objectional but such a violation of personal freedom?

556
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: But Biden's vaccine mandates are well for all those that

557
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: you just listed, there's a long history that parents have

558
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 1: had the opportunity to see how those things have been implemented.

559
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 1: And there's still a lot of people out there who

560
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 1: don't know what to trust. And in fact, this is

561
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 1: really an outcome of what the CDC has done because

562
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: they flip PLoP on so many issues, whether it's mass

563
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 1: or whether you have to mask, have to be vaccine,

564
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: and so forth. There's just a lot of people out

565
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 1: there who don't know who to trust right now, and

566
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 1: so by having the government force it on, you're not

567
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: building a trust where we have a trust with those

568
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 1: other vaccines. This is a process going to take time

569
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 1: to bring people along, and that's why it should be

570
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 1: a personal choice. And not something mandated by the government.

571
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 1: But but okay, so he goes on and he'll never

572
00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: give a satisfying answer because the truth is, he's even

573
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 1: sure why. But he found a clever thing, which was, yeah,

574
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: and if you're if you truly want to believe this

575
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 1: version of the reality you're experiencing, which is the vaccines

576
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 1: are bad, that yeah, it's like, well they've been around

577
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 1: long enough, it's time time, is the thing that is,

578
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: you know, blah blah blah. So he's not even saying

579
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: they're unsafe, right, and he keeps going back to this

580
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:29,879
Speaker 1: argument that people are unsure, they don't know who to trust. Okay, well,

581
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: well what do you do because right now the plan

582
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: seems to be okay, just let the pandemic rage on. Um,

583
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 1: He's like, but also like, we have to hold hands

584
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 1: with the people whose only news sources a Facebook group, right,

585
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,359
Speaker 1: Like so, but my question to all of this is,

586
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: what the funk is your solution? Then you're a fucking leader.

587
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 1: I don't care if you're a Republican, you're a fucking leader.

588
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: R So fucking come up with this, Lucien. Don't just

589
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:59,479
Speaker 1: say people are just unsure and so you you up top.

590
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: You said that you believe the vaccine was safe, you

591
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:05,359
Speaker 1: believe that it works. Is that true? I'm pretty sure

592
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: it is on some level because we've seen that. But

593
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: you know, as for these people who I lead for

594
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: a living, for my job, how are they supposed to

595
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 1: know that? Right? And the thing is I can't offer

596
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 1: a solution because then that would solve the problem and

597
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,919
Speaker 1: we would have nothing to push back against because as

598
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 1: a default, the Republicans are now just we cape for

599
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 1: the corporations as much as Democrats, but we do it

600
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 1: in a way that's very straightforward, and then we'll wrap

601
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,359
Speaker 1: it in a liberty argument so it gets enough people

602
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: fired up. And that's why I'm just like what I

603
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,239
Speaker 1: wish more people would just pivot an interview like that

604
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 1: and say, okay, then what's the solution if you're diagnosing

605
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,840
Speaker 1: all of these reasons why people are so if you

606
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 1: say the CDs, then how would you speak to them?

607
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: Do you yourself want everyone to be vaccinated? But they'll

608
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 1: never say that part. You know what I mean? It

609
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: always has to be you know, that's why this thing

610
00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: should be a personal choice, until when you see it's

611
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 1: it's never a situation of like they always put it like, oh, well,

612
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,359
Speaker 1: people don't know what to believe. They they CDC keeps

613
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 1: flip flopping and this and that, that and this, and

614
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 1: it's like no one is It's that kind of thing

615
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 1: just strokes somebody's god complex of like if I don't

616
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,840
Speaker 1: understand it, it's not real and it's not true. It's

617
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:22,760
Speaker 1: there's never a thing of like, yeah, things are gonna

618
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,880
Speaker 1: be different when we find new information. This virus didn't

619
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 1: come with a warning label or with a nutritional sticker

620
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 1: on it or anything like you're watching science happen, like

621
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,399
Speaker 1: we're gonna find new things and we're gonna pivot. It's

622
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: never that messaging. It's always well, they keep hearing a

623
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,759
Speaker 1: bunch of different things and their intuitive Facebook groups and

624
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 1: they have conflicting information from those. So we just don't

625
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 1: know what to believe, and we're gonna give parents autonomy,

626
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,439
Speaker 1: which is a terrifying kind of a thing because like

627
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: just just the argument of like well I don't understand it,

628
00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: it's like, well you don't understand, she does, and you

629
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 1: still eat them. Yeah, Like you don't understand a lot,

630
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,240
Speaker 1: Like some of the people have failed math, failed science,

631
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 1: so like, well, I don't get it, so it's not true.

632
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 1: And it's like you don't get a lot, you know, right,

633
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 1: It's like I don't. I don't understand math. So when

634
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 1: when I look at my bank account it says negative something,

635
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: I don't know what that means. What is that math? Well,

636
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: I don't understand math. So please don't don't uh encumber

637
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: me with your rigid dedication to this thing you call mathematics.

638
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: Please now give me my five dollars. I would like

639
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: right now. I don't know what overdrawn means. I'm not

640
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: an illustrator, do not. I do not agree with these things.

641
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,919
Speaker 1: And yeah, that's why I'm just like there. I feel

642
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 1: like democrats really just need to be pointing at them

643
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,359
Speaker 1: if they want as a strategy like watch this, they're

644
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 1: not going to suggest a fucking thing to solve the problem, right,

645
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 1: that's it, Just so you know, the only solution, the

646
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 1: only solution they have, is just to say no to

647
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: any idea other people have. That's not leading, that's just

648
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 1: you're a drunk asshole at a bar who was button

649
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 1: in on a conversation you had nothing to do with, Like, oh,

650
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 1: what do you guys know about the house music? I'm like,

651
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 1: what there, please get away? But this is the thing. Mean,

652
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 1: like that's why I would just you know, you'd hope

653
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: that on some I don't know. That's I think where

654
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:25,280
Speaker 1: like the real sinister kind of want to be fascist

655
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 1: is going to be able to talk like that, you

656
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:29,319
Speaker 1: know what I mean, And it's not going to be

657
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 1: like oh yeah, well you know we can't do that.

658
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 1: It seem like no, what we actually need to be

659
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,399
Speaker 1: doing is this and this and this and then the other.

660
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 1: But right now I think it's because everything has been

661
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: so caught up and it's like back and forth culture

662
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 1: war nonsense that even something this simple, because Chris Wallace

663
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 1: even said he even tried to present it to Pete

664
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 1: Ricketts like, I mean like, look, if you think about it,

665
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 1: this is a vaccine that works. I mean President Trump

666
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 1: had a lot to do with it happening. I mean

667
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,799
Speaker 1: like it started with his administration and it works, it's

668
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: been tested. Well, what's the problem. And he was still

669
00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 1: just like people aren't sure. Well, then, as a leader,

670
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,320
Speaker 1: wouldn't you say, hey, you can trust me? If you

671
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 1: said they don't know who to trust, can they trust you? Right?

672
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 1: And are you what would you say if they trust you.

673
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 1: Very obvious follow up. Yeah, I don't know, what do

674
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: I know? What do we know? I'm just trying to

675
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: make people feel smart for being stupid, you know. Yeah,

676
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 1: well it goes back to the thing we don't know.

677
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 1: Americans don't want to check themselves, you know, like because

678
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: we have so many people like this whole thing is

679
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 1: like I don't know if Joe Biden should have scolded

680
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: these people. We look how many people passed away and

681
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 1: think of the people that are especially man frontline healthcare workers,

682
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 1: the mental health crisis that they're experiencing from, like wanting

683
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: to help people and just seeing ambulance after ambulance or

684
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 1: patient after patient of someone who's like I didn't look

685
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: after my own health and like now I'm in a

686
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 1: really bad way. And also like give me this medicine

687
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 1: that is an FDA approved and also I won't be vaccinated.

688
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: But also please can I not die? Can I look

689
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 1: you in your eyes as I'm dying and say help me?

690
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 1: Like that ship is the one thing traumatic beg for

691
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 1: the vaccine on their deathbeds, like yeah, I've been reading

692
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 1: so much. We're like you finally get them to want

693
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,239
Speaker 1: to do what they should do, and it's like so

694
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,320
Speaker 1: painfully too late that like, yeah, it's you're right in

695
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:20,439
Speaker 1: the gut, yeah, and unnecessary against Yeah. And I think

696
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 1: that's the thing is that this whole thing was just

697
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,880
Speaker 1: they thought they could create a sentiment within the country

698
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 1: that could just ignore the like massive amount of preventable

699
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: death that's occurring. I think that was really their only things, like,

700
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, let's just get our heads down and

701
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 1: then maybe people will stop caring about it. But this

702
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: is a problem that's unlike to the problems they usually

703
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,320
Speaker 1: like to get involved in, which would be like fighting

704
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:45,800
Speaker 1: wars and ship And because this is a completely different

705
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,879
Speaker 1: one that requires people to actually do what's best for

706
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: each other, they found themselves completely out of source. It's

707
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: just like, well, fucking man, like, let's hope people aren't hiding,

708
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,320
Speaker 1: we can get over the amount of people that are dying. Yeah,

709
00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 1: it's straight up a death cult at the point. The Right,

710
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 1: a prominent anti masker and anti vaxer who was known

711
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: for wearing a zoro mask. Two Staples passed away over

712
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: the weekend. Veronica Wolfski and the hospital like had to

713
00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 1: be evacuated a couple of times because people were phoning

714
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 1: in bomb threats and trying because she was being treated

715
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:29,320
Speaker 1: with like ever mecten or you know whatever. The people who,

716
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,879
Speaker 1: as Mile said, get their news from Facebook groups were

717
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,319
Speaker 1: telling the doctor demanding the doctor's treat her with. So

718
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:37,920
Speaker 1: you know, they don't know who to trust, but they

719
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 1: know what the dosage and treatment ought to be. Right,

720
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: That's right, yep, That's why. I mean again, it's just

721
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 1: I think it's just revealing so much about the human

722
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 1: psyche too, as especially as it relates to Americans. I mean,

723
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,280
Speaker 1: like so much of this is about unwilling to embrace

724
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 1: the unknown, because for those people, the only control they

725
00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 1: can exert is to not get vaccinated. After that, I think,

726
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 1: to them it's such a dice roll, whether they believe

727
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,359
Speaker 1: it's a scientific dice roll or maybe they're just full

728
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,840
Speaker 1: on some other ship and they'll never get it anyway.

729
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 1: But there's just it's like it's just human nature. We have.

730
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: We have to know what's going to happen, and when

731
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,280
Speaker 1: we don't, we get very anxious. That's just our human nature.

732
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 1: Like whenever we're in situations where things are uncertain, can

733
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 1: cause a lot of anxiety and stress, and especially as

734
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 1: it relates something like this that requires people to trust that.

735
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,239
Speaker 1: It just shows that there's like limits to that and

736
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 1: in this case, people think they're gonna they feel safer

737
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 1: by not doing it, even though the results are to

738
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: the you know that they're getting the counter result that

739
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,839
Speaker 1: they thought they would. And we did have this during

740
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: the nineteen eleven pandemic. It was less sort of incendiary

741
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 1: because there was not social media, but there was a

742
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:53,840
Speaker 1: big resistance to getting the vaccine and they had to

743
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:55,799
Speaker 1: go door to door to make sure people got the

744
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 1: vaccine and ultimately they won that battle. But it remains

745
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: to be seen whether we will be able to win

746
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 1: that battle in a world that does have Facebook that

747
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 1: really like it seems I feel like it's getting passe

748
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 1: and also like it's just boring to keep being like

749
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 1: social media is evil, but it really like, I mean

750
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 1: that all these stories that we're talking about, like you

751
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 1: keep coming back to the fact that the problem would

752
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:28,240
Speaker 1: be solved if there weren't you know, people lying passing

753
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 1: off lies is as facts on. So, yeah, well, because

754
00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:34,440
Speaker 1: Facebook kind of gives people legitimacy in that sense, It's

755
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 1: one thing if it's like a back is hey back

756
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,680
Speaker 1: in our day. We remember the early Internet were some

757
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:41,360
Speaker 1: wacky ship. It was like on a geo cities website

758
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 1: and you looked at your like, this is trash. I

759
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 1: can tell by looking at it, this is nothing is

760
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 1: real on this page. Nothing but Facebook I think lends

761
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 1: a certain veneer of like validity to a lot of

762
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:59,279
Speaker 1: those things because of the formatting and things like that

763
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,239
Speaker 1: that there's like a lot of presentational graphic things that

764
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 1: I think are that kind of bolster this ship. And tomorrow,

765
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 1: actually we'll talk about because this this article just came

766
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 1: out the Washington Post found out like Facebook has like

767
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,520
Speaker 1: this whole plat, like this whole program where they are

768
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 1: like certain users that are they can violate the user

769
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:23,440
Speaker 1: guidelines and they'll keep them there because they're prominent of profiles. So,

770
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 1: you know, we'll we'll do a little we'll talk a

771
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 1: little bit more about that. But yeah, there's there's many

772
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 1: things that are consciously happening to that kind of keep

773
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:34,879
Speaker 1: these you know, ecosystems. M m m all right, let's

774
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 1: take a quick break and we'll be right back. And

775
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,799
Speaker 1: we're back. I just saw a quote from Governor Newsome's

776
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:53,759
Speaker 1: team that says, no scenario we lose, So I can

777
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 1: basically take that to mean that that they have lost

778
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,400
Speaker 1: by the time you're listening to this and upon alogies

779
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:05,760
Speaker 1: to the future. Alright, let's talk really briefly about the

780
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 1: latest revelations in this Woodward book Peril, about the kind

781
00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 1: of transition from Trump to Biden. One of the revelations

782
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:19,320
Speaker 1: is that China was convinced that because Trump was getting

783
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:22,839
Speaker 1: belligerent just leading into the election, as he kind of

784
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 1: faced the possibility that you might lose, that you know,

785
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 1: the US government was unstable, the transfer of power was

786
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:33,440
Speaker 1: up in the air, and he was, you know, starting

787
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 1: to talk about starting a war with China or Iran,

788
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 1: and to the point that one of the generals had

789
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:44,960
Speaker 1: to call his Chinese counterpart and say, this is a quote.

790
00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,400
Speaker 1: I want to assure you that the American government is

791
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 1: stable and everything is going to be okay. We are

792
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 1: not going to attack or conduct any kinetic operations against you.

793
00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 1: That ship was so first of all, that's just like

794
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,719
Speaker 1: what what you say, like that sounds like a publicist

795
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 1: talking about about a person who was just like, you know,

796
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:12,360
Speaker 1: been checked in somewhere. But that was before the attacks

797
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:16,400
Speaker 1: of January six, at which point they were certain something

798
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 1: bad was going to happen because they were witnessing what

799
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 1: was clearly an attempted coup. To everyone outside of the country,

800
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: I feel like, because we still live in this country

801
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 1: with like Fox News and Trump supporters were probably like

802
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 1: uniquely insulated from the truth of like how dangerous that

803
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:42,360
Speaker 1: situation was. But after January six, China was freaking the

804
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,640
Speaker 1: funk out and the military had to like actually make

805
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:50,520
Speaker 1: changes to delay military exercises. So in this second call

806
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,280
Speaker 1: to address Chinese fears about the events of January six,

807
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: General Milly promised, we are one steady, everything's fine, but

808
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:04,440
Speaker 1: democracy can be sloppy sometimes, and that didn't want they

809
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:11,720
Speaker 1: were still rattled. Yeah. He also felt the need after

810
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 1: that call to confirm with the people responsible for physically

811
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:20,319
Speaker 1: launching nuclear weapons that he had to be involved with

812
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 1: the process. Like he was like, okay, so just so

813
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 1: we're clear, let's run it through. He could come in

814
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: here start telling you to launch nooks at China, but

815
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,359
Speaker 1: you have to bring me into the room too, like

816
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 1: I have to be involved in that conversation. And so

817
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 1: and by the way, this is somebody that was appointed

818
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 1: by Trump, So this is not a deep state actor

819
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:44,600
Speaker 1: from like the Obama administration. The head of the CIA,

820
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,320
Speaker 1: also a Trump appointing, was of the opinion that America

821
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 1: was on the way to a right wing coup. So yeah,

822
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 1: it was as bad as it as it looked. Basically

823
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,800
Speaker 1: as what is what you're hearing? Like literally, this is

824
00:47:56,840 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 1: a quote. The CIA director Gina Haspell, for instance, reportedly

825
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 1: told Milly quote, we are on the way to a

826
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:07,520
Speaker 1: right wing coup. So yeah, oh, what do you know,

827
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 1: Gina Haspell, your black site operator, I know a thing

828
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:15,839
Speaker 1: or two about seeing a coup. Okay, yeah, the one

829
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 1: thing that is that sort of ship. Yeah, it's true.

830
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:29,399
Speaker 1: Everybody outside of the United States, I knew that they agreed, right,

831
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,880
Speaker 1: No one was ever like, nobody was saying, well, you know,

832
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:36,040
Speaker 1: democracy can be sloppy. Sometimes they're like, what the fund

833
00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 1: is happening over there? And then imagine like all the

834
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:42,879
Speaker 1: tense Joe political ship that's already up in the air,

835
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:46,839
Speaker 1: right and very in many cases very much like just

836
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:51,360
Speaker 1: a few bad calls or a few misinterpretations from going

837
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,920
Speaker 1: very wrong very quickly. You see that, and you're like, well,

838
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 1: can we like I don't think people often understand in

839
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 1: the unit I did states that peaceful transfer of power

840
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 1: is one of the sort of golden geese of of

841
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:11,560
Speaker 1: any nation state, and it's not. It feels like it's

842
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 1: a sure thing for a lot of people who grew

843
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:17,399
Speaker 1: up here because it almost always was, but that never

844
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 1: guarantees that it will be the case the next time

845
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:24,840
Speaker 1: that power is transferred. And like other countries are very

846
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: very familiar with this. And this is like any time

847
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 1: you hear about an election coming up in any country,

848
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:34,400
Speaker 1: you can be you can be a certain that the

849
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 1: world's intelligence agencies and the big corporations are keeping a

850
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:41,360
Speaker 1: close eye on it, because if ship's gonna go wrong,

851
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 1: that's when it's most likely to happen. And like, I

852
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I think people don't know just

853
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:51,360
Speaker 1: how dangerous or maybe don't want to admit just how dangerous,

854
00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,520
Speaker 1: how close this was, I mean, is it is it

855
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:57,839
Speaker 1: like Cuban missile crisis level close? I don't think that's

856
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,920
Speaker 1: hyperbolic to say, yeah, that's what Evans always says. When

857
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:05,279
Speaker 1: he went over to Kiev to like after that the

858
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,919
Speaker 1: Ukraine capital like kind of devolved into a civil war.

859
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 1: Like the thing he kept hearing was people being like,

860
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:13,920
Speaker 1: I can't believe it happened here. We never thought it

861
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:17,960
Speaker 1: could happen here. And it's just when when it's another country,

862
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,360
Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, that's what happens in other countries,

863
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:23,640
Speaker 1: because that's the international news that we get. But when

864
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:27,680
Speaker 1: it's your country, you're like, well, I have a wealth

865
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 1: of experience that tells me that our country does not

866
00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 1: devolve it into a coup. And I also it's now

867
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:39,480
Speaker 1: part of a political like discourse as to whether that

868
00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 1: was even what I saw. So it just like, also,

869
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 1: and this is gonna surprise you, guys. Turns out Mike

870
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:52,399
Speaker 1: Pence is a spineless weasel. He was definitely considering overturning,

871
00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:56,520
Speaker 1: upending the election certification. He even spoke to and this

872
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,920
Speaker 1: is terrifying that the fate of our country was indeed

873
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:02,720
Speaker 1: two guys hands. He had a conversation with Vice President

874
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 1: Dan Quaile, whoever saw the certification of the ninety two

875
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 1: election in which he was on the losing ticket, and

876
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:14,560
Speaker 1: appeared in that conversation open to going along with Trump's plan.

877
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,800
Speaker 1: Pushed the false claim that Arizona's voting systems or voting

878
00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,919
Speaker 1: results were wrong, and asked where whether there was any

879
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:24,520
Speaker 1: way he could delay certification, So it was it was

880
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 1: on the fucking table. Things almost went as bad as

881
00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:31,360
Speaker 1: we had feared they could go. And dan Quell is

882
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:34,839
Speaker 1: still alive. Yeah, still out here doing it. I didn't

883
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:38,440
Speaker 1: know that from that. Let's uh, let's talk. Rudy Giuliani

884
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:43,279
Speaker 1: also makes an appearance this one. Actually, yeah, look at

885
00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:46,880
Speaker 1: that two for two. Yeah, he's like, I mean, he

886
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 1: had a he had a great evening on the twentieth

887
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:53,120
Speaker 1: anniversary of nine eleven. He went to chip Ryanni, you know,

888
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 1: nice dinner and Christmas. You know, we got Christmas. I

889
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 1: think we've ever seen him. You know, he's had some

890
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: remarkable appearances on Fox where he was a little bit uh,

891
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:10,560
Speaker 1: you know, animated, a little sloppy with his pronunciation. But

892
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:14,279
Speaker 1: this is clearly something else. So something that was just

893
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:15,880
Speaker 1: on such a level that he had to do an

894
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 1: interview with the Daily Mail the next day to like

895
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:22,799
Speaker 1: clear up what immediately after. Yeah, so let's check out

896
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 1: one of his The thing that really caught a lot

897
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 1: of people in the UK's attention when he was talking about,

898
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 1: you know, kind of the his interaction with Queen Elizabeth

899
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 1: when he was given a an honor after nine eleven.

900
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:43,800
Speaker 1: She said, you's just a wonderful Joel on September living

901
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:49,879
Speaker 1: and therefore I'm making an honorary night Commander of the

902
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 1: Royal something. Rather I turned down a niehood because if

903
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:56,759
Speaker 1: you took a niehood, you had to lose your citizenship.

904
00:52:57,520 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 1: I know. Prince Andrew was very question well. Now, I

905
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:04,520
Speaker 1: never went out with him, never, never, never had a

906
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,919
Speaker 1: drink with him. Never was a woman or a young

907
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:12,040
Speaker 1: girl with him. One time I met him in my

908
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,720
Speaker 1: office and one time when we had the party, right Bernie,

909
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:19,880
Speaker 1: you were there, okay, uh. I never had a drink

910
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:25,880
Speaker 1: with him. He did a voice oh yeah, he he

911
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:29,920
Speaker 1: later this is this freaking interview that he said. He

912
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:33,440
Speaker 1: defended that the Queen Elizabeth thing. He was just saying like,

913
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:36,560
Speaker 1: he's like, I wasn't mocking the Queen. Okay, first of all,

914
00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:40,040
Speaker 1: it was quote an interpretation that's totally unfair. I use

915
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 1: an English accent. And he goes on to say, and

916
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:46,839
Speaker 1: I have never mocked it. I imitate Churchill sometimes he's

917
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,960
Speaker 1: you know, he has he's like, I have a sick

918
00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 1: English accent, like so I am hilarious when I do

919
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:57,480
Speaker 1: an English accent that his English accent sounds like he's

920
00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 1: got like like ship his mouth, like yeah like that.

921
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:05,960
Speaker 1: I mean the way the way he kicked that off

922
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:08,600
Speaker 1: was a little look two out of ten on the attempt.

923
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:11,680
Speaker 1: Trudy sorry, and he he he wanted to clarify he

924
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:14,799
Speaker 1: was not drunk. Okay, he said, quote, I am not

925
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,400
Speaker 1: a drunk. I don't think I've ever been publicly drunk

926
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 1: in my life. The last time I was was probably

927
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,760
Speaker 1: in college. I like to drink scotch and have cigars.

928
00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 1: That's where it probably comes from. I drink moderate amounts

929
00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:28,160
Speaker 1: of scotch. I mostly drink scotch because I like to

930
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,839
Speaker 1: have it with cigars. I didn't have a cigar last night.

931
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 1: And this is a caricature that the Left is trying

932
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:35,600
Speaker 1: to put on me. I can't remember the last time

933
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:38,040
Speaker 1: I was drunk, and I'm not just going to put

934
00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:40,520
Speaker 1: up with it anymore. I've got to do something about it.

935
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:46,040
Speaker 1: Uh huh Okay. It sounds like halfway through saying that denial,

936
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:53,239
Speaker 1: he started thinking about scotch. Yeah, like imagining scotch, just

937
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:56,719
Speaker 1: moderate amounts of scotch. I love Scotch, especially from the Highlands.

938
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,319
Speaker 1: You know that it gives something like it just night

939
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:07,319
Speaker 1: Pete and he continued the that I don't know the theatrics,

940
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:12,279
Speaker 1: the the tirade, the slam dunking upon the people, but

941
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:15,600
Speaker 1: this time he I don't even know where this one

942
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:19,240
Speaker 1: is exactly going. This one. He clearly has bad feelings

943
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:21,800
Speaker 1: about General Mark Milly, who we were just talking about,

944
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:25,000
Speaker 1: and likes to call him Miley okay, because that's how

945
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:30,520
Speaker 1: he emasculates him. I guess, Miley, how did how's that

946
00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:35,200
Speaker 1: guy in General Jesus? The other day he said that

947
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 1: the backroom Air Force base is not strategically important. I

948
00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,200
Speaker 1: wanted to grab his what do you have? Five stars?

949
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 1: Ten stars, twelve stars? They have so many stars that

950
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:48,200
Speaker 1: come in up into his ears. I wanted to grab

951
00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:50,879
Speaker 1: his stars, shove it down his throat and say, it's

952
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:57,000
Speaker 1: four miles from China, asshole. China is gonna be our

953
00:55:57,120 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 1: enemy for the next forty years from them, and you're

954
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:08,320
Speaker 1: giving it up, idiot? What the hell is wrong with you?

955
00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 1: Who pays you? Donald Trump? Wow? But people like you

956
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:18,080
Speaker 1: can also just feel the crowd is like scared a

957
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:25,120
Speaker 1: little bit because it's about and he's like, I totally

958
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:28,759
Speaker 1: forgot that was supposed to be about nine eleven. The

959
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:34,480
Speaker 1: Prince Andrew thing was like that that performance that we

960
00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:39,440
Speaker 1: just heard wonderful, But the Prince Andrew thing was why

961
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,200
Speaker 1: do we think he started talking about Prince Andrew? Has

962
00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 1: he been alleged to be involved in the Prince Andrew stuff?

963
00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,759
Speaker 1: I think it's yeah, it's some at some level, and

964
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:52,319
Speaker 1: maybe he's just trying to get in front of it,

965
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:55,760
Speaker 1: like like you guys said with Elder, but Prince Andrew

966
00:56:56,000 --> 00:57:01,200
Speaker 1: is currently embroiled in the ongoing right whether he actually

967
00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:04,640
Speaker 1: got served those papers, So it might be maybe because

968
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:08,040
Speaker 1: him and Derschowitz team up so much. Yeah, yeah, like

969
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 1: that there's there's connective tissue. And I mean he's been

970
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:16,560
Speaker 1: photographed with Prince Andrew before. Yeah. Yeah, it's just such

971
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:20,080
Speaker 1: a like guilty dog barking first kind of cliche, you

972
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's like if if you meet

973
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,960
Speaker 1: somebody and the first thing they say is like, look

974
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 1: you can sometimes helicopters go missing, and that's the first

975
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:33,080
Speaker 1: thing they say. You're like, what the funk is up

976
00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 1: with you with helicopters? Bro? And yeah, it says something

977
00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:42,200
Speaker 1: about the also just like his delivery of it too,

978
00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 1: like he's saying it like it's like it clearly made

979
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,080
Speaker 1: the room feel weird too, because everyone's like, yeah, Prince

980
00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 1: Andrew was like in alleged like sex criminal, and he's like,

981
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:58,160
Speaker 1: I never party with him, right, come on, And then

982
00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:02,440
Speaker 1: they thought everybody's like yeah, ruined, Like that's a grim

983
00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:08,160
Speaker 1: topic and you're still up here just off your face,

984
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:13,280
Speaker 1: meanwhile saying that he's not functioning alcoholic, He's just functioning. Yeah.

985
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 1: It was another interesting quote from that. Yeah, he said

986
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:19,880
Speaker 1: I'm not a Yeah, I'm I'm a functional I'm not

987
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,760
Speaker 1: an alcoholic. He like stopped himself from saying I'm a

988
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:30,240
Speaker 1: functional alcoholic too. And Churchill also uh famously southd Yeah

989
00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 1: throughout much of World War two. Yeah, he made it

990
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:35,240
Speaker 1: look better though. The difference between Rudy and Churchill is

991
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:41,480
Speaker 1: Churchill makes us look good, real real. Briefly, they're doing

992
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:49,400
Speaker 1: an apprentice for activism. It's called The Activists. Yeah. The

993
00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:55,040
Speaker 1: contestants will engage in missions, media stunts, digital campaigns, and

994
00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:58,840
Speaker 1: community events aimed at garnering the attention of the world's

995
00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 1: most powerful decision makers. And then who decides who's sexy

996
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:10,440
Speaker 1: enough to stay this week? Um? Oh yes, not Ussure

998
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:21,280
Speaker 1: one other person who's name I'm not familiar with. It's

999
00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:27,480
Speaker 1: just so it's like its predictable, really, it's predictable. It's

1000
00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:33,720
Speaker 1: highlighting the like most cynical, bloodless version interpretation of the

1001
00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:37,320
Speaker 1: word activism, Like at a time when we need, when

1002
00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:40,240
Speaker 1: there's like real energy and we need people to think

1003
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:44,120
Speaker 1: of activism is something that's like approachable and can affect

1004
00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:48,800
Speaker 1: real change, and they're doing going the root of like, well,

1005
00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:52,040
Speaker 1: you go with a think tank and then you like

1006
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 1: influence the board of like BP to like invest in

1007
00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:01,720
Speaker 1: your fucking prod. And it's just like I just hopefully

1008
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,720
Speaker 1: no nobody who's interested in activism will watch this. Hopefully

1009
01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 1: nobody will watch this, but especially nobody's Like if a

1010
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,080
Speaker 1: young person is interested in activism watches this, they're gonna

1011
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:14,600

Speaker 1: boardrooms when like there are real stakes and but they're

1021
01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:49,480
Speaker 1: just like, let's make this a weird product that has

1022
01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 1: nothing to do with what it is because we don't

1023
01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:55,400
Speaker 1: even understand the importance of activism from our perspective, because

1024
01:00:55,520 --> 01:00:59,200
Speaker 1: nothing needs to change based on how we live. So
