Speaker 1: stop turned back? What are you doing this? Don't do this?
Speaker 1: Don't do It's a hard life. It's a hard life.
Speaker 1: Don't do it. Yeah, yeah, it's hard enough. Fun. What
Speaker 1: what are you to write? The great American novel? Non
Speaker 1: fucking reads? Yeah, I've been trying to read one book
Speaker 1: for the last year, which one check Clasterman's the nineties.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay, I'm like I was there. I just
Speaker 1: oh I remember that. Oh yeah, I'm not a child.
Speaker 1: I understand a little more. Okay, it's a good book.
Speaker 1: Everyone go read it. Actually, just on that point, like,
Speaker 1: have any of you ever actually gotten good advice about writing?
Speaker 1: I know all of us have probably dabbled in that
Speaker 1: have you ever gotten good advice on writing that wasn't
Speaker 1: just like the one I got was just honesty. It's
Speaker 1: like it's be ready. It was like, just be ready.
Speaker 1: It's it's very difficult. And that was enough to make
Speaker 1: me be like, you know what, I'm gonna give up.
Speaker 1: I think I think the best. It's kind of about writing,
Speaker 1: but it's about character in a way. And it was
Speaker 1: from Malcolm Gladwell's um master class during the pandemic. Had
Speaker 1: to do something improve yourself. I don't know. For whatever reason,
Speaker 1: I developed this weird crush on Malcolm Gladwell. I'll never understand. Bit. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like came out of a fall good twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh god, but I was in love
Speaker 1: with a light skinned ghost with a skeleton with a
Speaker 1: tan so I. The advice he gave is like, if
Speaker 1: you really want to get to know someone another character
Speaker 1: like you will get more from what they have in
Speaker 1: their apartment then you will by asking them m interesting
Speaker 1: like I can. I can know more about you by
Speaker 1: looking at your apartment and going in your room than
Speaker 1: I'll ever know from asking you. That's true. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you look in here, you see a Laker's jersey
Speaker 1: there is I know you're basic. Yeah, yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I got I got fun. I'm I'm into weed, yeah,
Speaker 1: and I have I have a bass guitar. It basically
Speaker 1: looks like somebody's dorm room that you would want to
Speaker 1: you turn right out of. So exactly big, he's basic,
Speaker 1: he's immature. He smokes more weed than he's gonna tell me.
Speaker 1: I already know character. I would very very accurately tell you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: for sure that is true. Like I mean, of course,
Speaker 1: there's so much more to glean from than if I
Speaker 1: was just like, yeah, I'm kind of a cerebral guy,
Speaker 1: um who's just like really into like art and stuff
Speaker 1: like that. Look at like my weird start for you, yeah,
Speaker 1: little yeah. What can you tell from Jacquiss's mini zoom
Speaker 1: screen from his box? Um, well I can tell already
Speaker 1: you have a makeshift sound booth, so uh you're poor, Okay,
Speaker 1: it's makeshift out here? Is that a treasure blankets, a
Speaker 1: Fernie pad? Yeah, Fernie pad? Yeah, the great the greatest
Speaker 1: sound control man. You like you like thrifted art? Based
Speaker 1: on what I can tell from your zoom screen? Oh
Speaker 1: and my, my, naked lady, my naked nineteen seventies lady. Oh,
Speaker 1: like she's a lesbian. Here's the thing, not at all,
Speaker 1: not at all. Woman's vaginas so much just like boobies on.
Speaker 1: So what you're telling this is your assessment, like that
Speaker 1: you can tell people from their apartment is inaccurate? Well
Speaker 1: for me, okay, I have so many traps in my
Speaker 1: apartment to make you think one thing. Any traps. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're like you have a Gadsden flag of like don't
Speaker 1: tread on me. You're like, yeah, yeah, what do you
Speaker 1: think of that? You're like, you idiot, it's a trap. Ye. Anyway, Jenny,
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to know you even better than what
Speaker 1: we can clean from your apartment walls. But first, before
Speaker 1: we do any of that, we got to tell people
Speaker 1: what we are going to be talking about today. First up,
Speaker 1: just we got to catch up with Clarence Thomas. We
Speaker 1: were just talking about him the last episode when we
Speaker 1: were talking about Candis Owens and some other really conflicted
Speaker 1: black people. To put it very charitably, U and the
Speaker 1: amount of fucking just cool bribes and shit he's been
Speaker 1: getting from this GOP mega donor that he has not
Speaker 1: been disclosing. Oh no, I'm clutching my pearls so tightly
Speaker 1: because I can believe it. I can somehow. We'll also
Speaker 1: just talk about just some of the trips this dude
Speaker 1: has gone on. It's like, oh, it's it's egregious. Then
Speaker 1: we'll just check in in Tennessee because yeah, they've gone
Speaker 1: full fascist over there as they expelled two black Democrats,
Speaker 1: but the white woman who's a Democrat that was also protesting,
Speaker 1: she got by just by one vote, and that she said,
Speaker 1: I suspect has something to do with my skin color,
Speaker 1: and yeah, that's facts. I'm just kind of looking at
Speaker 1: the state of you know, this new form of governance
Speaker 1: aka silence your critics to the and expel them if
Speaker 1: you don't like what they're saying, and by that, I
Speaker 1: mean pointing out that you're doing very little to protect
Speaker 1: the people you represent. And then finally we'll catch up
Speaker 1: with Russell Crowe briefly because he's got a fucking exorcism
Speaker 1: movie coming out, and yeah, we just gotta talk like exorcisms,
Speaker 1: or we gotta stop like normalizing exorcisms, because we'll talk
Speaker 1: about how fucking how much shit goes. Hey, there's so
Speaker 1: much liked anyone normalize exorcisms, you'll be up doing. You'll
Speaker 1: be surprised, you know you had. I had no idea
Speaker 1: that like the Exorcist like brought the Catholic Church back
Speaker 1: from the brink basically, and ever since then, they're like
Speaker 1: that with that, like we gotta lean into that. That's
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. Like they got a sniff of that,
Speaker 1: and suddenly like people like these rituals were going on
Speaker 1: in anyway we'll talk to. Too many kids could have
Speaker 1: been saved if we just didn't have the Exorcist. Yeah,
Speaker 1: exactly right, if we just someone didn't make it. Uh.
Speaker 1: And there's even a funny story about the kid who
Speaker 1: was like sort of the basis for that phone. We're
Speaker 1: going to get to that and more. But first, Jenny,
Speaker 1: what is something from your search history that's revealing about
Speaker 1: who you are? Okay, Well, recently, what I had to
Speaker 1: search for a project I was doing. I had to
Speaker 1: search these Star Wars characters because I don't know any
Speaker 1: of them. And I'm so happy for you. There's so many. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's good for you. I'm so happy for you. I
Speaker 1: know it, Like I don't know there's Han solo Adam
Speaker 1: Driver or they I like naming the character. There's Luke Skywalker,
Speaker 1: Han Solo, Adam Driver, Princess Leo, There's Billy Williams, the Fisher,
Speaker 1: There's there's a stuffed bear. I think at one point
Speaker 1: I did I was doing, I'm doing this project, and uh,
Speaker 1: I'd researched them because I'd never seen the new Star Wars.
Speaker 1: I maybe saw the one old one, but never saw
Speaker 1: the new ones, except one time I saw the first
Speaker 1: ten minutes because I was on a lot of mushrooms
Speaker 1: and we went to go see the first one with
Speaker 1: Adam Driver, and I couldn't stop laughing in the theater
Speaker 1: because I was like, he wasn't girls. I had to leave,
Speaker 1: and then he just walked into Kats. It was a
Speaker 1: much better time on mushrooms and were people laughing in
Speaker 1: that theater or there was like two people in there.
Speaker 1: And I walked in just as they were doing the
Speaker 1: Jenny song and it's like I Will Wilson and and
Speaker 1: like a, you know, the Jenny the fat Cat and
Speaker 1: she there's roaches everywhere, and I was like, WHOA, there's
Speaker 1: a way different time. This is kind of more of
Speaker 1: my speed right now. The little more must Yeah, I
Speaker 1: should have did that, should have saw Cat's Highest shit.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, mushrooms make like to Jenny's point, anything can
Speaker 1: be a comedy on mushrooms. Adam Driver movie is great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Schindler's less funny as fun somehow. It tripped me out
Speaker 1: in that one part you saw the girl's cult was red.
Speaker 1: I didn't know what the fuck that was about. I
Speaker 1: thought I was tripping again. But yeah, any film can
Speaker 1: be a comedy somehow. Or you'll just laugh from that.
Speaker 1: But I also like that you were just were you
Speaker 1: just sort of like, Okay, I am laughing way too
Speaker 1: much that I'm just to myself. I could tell people
Speaker 1: for us, like any random finger, Like, yeah, first of all,
Speaker 1: I was on mushrooms, so I had no idea what
Speaker 1: was happening in the story. And then Adam Driver's pulsating
Speaker 1: face would show up, I'm orfing, and I'd just be like,
Speaker 1: that's the guy from Girl. But it makes me so
Speaker 1: happy to know how much I know you pissed off
Speaker 1: Star Wars fans especially, they was mad at fucking I
Speaker 1: love it. Excuse me. I was like, and then and
Speaker 1: then to the trailer before that, and that one dude
Speaker 1: It's like this one guy who I forget who he is,
Speaker 1: but he's an actor. It was like a spy like
Speaker 1: me or something. And he's like hanging out this little
Speaker 1: girl and he's like a big tough spy. But I
Speaker 1: was really peaking on the mushrooms and I was like,
Speaker 1: I thought he was a robot and I was like,
Speaker 1: they were letting robots make movies. Now, this is so
Speaker 1: messed up. It was, I may he looks rude even
Speaker 1: in real life. This dude looks weird. Okay, so I
Speaker 1: don't think I'm that far off. Oh I know who
Speaker 1: you're talking about, Dominic that he was like pasty white. No, no,
Speaker 1: he's like he's just a lot of weird looking people
Speaker 1: in Star Wars. Okay, No, this wasn't. This was the
Speaker 1: part of the trailer before Star Wars came up. I
Speaker 1: don't remember. There is like some planet. I couldn't understand
Speaker 1: what they were saying. I just know, yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: it was just hilarious as shit. You know, Snap showed
Speaker 1: up the screen. You're like, oh my god, it's the
Speaker 1: crossover episode. Was like, oh my god, he's back. Thank you, Jenny.
Speaker 1: What something you think is overrated? Oh? In an altburger
Speaker 1: for sure, go on. Overrated, super overrated. It's fine. The
Speaker 1: French fri garbage, you guess what. I love them. Oh,
Speaker 1: just look at your jerseys, okay, you simpleton. I know,
Speaker 1: look at me else. I wear my sports jerseys and
Speaker 1: I go give me soft fries. Please. The fucking garbage
Speaker 1: back gum. The fries not good, those fries, those fries
Speaker 1: not good. Like those fries are the epitome of everything.
Speaker 1: Don't need to be fresh. I'm shure we can just shure.
Speaker 1: We just have, you know, frozen with a bunch of salt.
Speaker 1: You know, but let's just give us, give us what
Speaker 1: we want. Like I will say this, I am I'm
Speaker 1: from Chicago, so I am not miles year from here.
Speaker 1: So you have a more vested interest in the in
Speaker 1: and out. I don't invested it. I don't give a
Speaker 1: fucking people don't like in and out Like, no, you're
Speaker 1: crying right now, don't no, man, this is courage water
Speaker 1: coming up out my eyes right now, crying right now.
Speaker 1: It's okay, man, You're gonna be true. Up in and
Speaker 1: out is I like I do like in and out burgers.
Speaker 1: I will start with that. And here's why I like
Speaker 1: them because to me, burger prices have gotten ridiculous. Like,
Speaker 1: you go to a restaurant and a burger costs fifteen
Speaker 1: fucking dollars meat, patty. So I'm like, if your burger
Speaker 1: is gonna cost more than in and out burger, it
Speaker 1: better be fucking it has to be good. So, yes,
Speaker 1: there are better burgers, but for how much burgers are? Yeah,
Speaker 1: every burgers should be three to five dollars. Burgers should
Speaker 1: be ninety nine cent. So let's get back to the
Speaker 1: do you want to eat ninety nine cent me? All right? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're just at this point nine. You gotta blanket coill
Speaker 1: eat a ten I will eat ten dollars meat. I'll
Speaker 1: eat ten dollars meat. It just gotta taste better than
Speaker 1: a ninety nine cent me. That's what I'm saying. You're
Speaker 1: saying there's fair. Yeah, here's McDonald's fries. But I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say that what is underrated is in the fast food
Speaker 1: world is is Carls Junior. Because their burgers are great.
Speaker 1: Their burgers are good, but you get one meal and
Speaker 1: it costs twenty seven dollars. I'm sorry, it costs thirteen
Speaker 1: forty five what's your what? What? What burger do you get? Though? Oh? Well,
Speaker 1: this is why I like it is I get western bacon,
Speaker 1: the vegan one. Let us wrap. Yeah, And I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh wow, I feel so Californian. Are you vegan? I'm
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be vegetarian. Okay, okay, that's right. Respect cheese. Yeah. Look,
Speaker 1: we gotta we have to transition to a meatless world
Speaker 1: in the way we know how, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 1: that's we can't just go. I can't just flip the
Speaker 1: switch off, you know what I mean. I've been me.
Speaker 1: I was eating meatless like the last three days, and
Speaker 1: then I had someone I had to put some mazzarella
Speaker 1: up in like a postive thing I made and just help.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you need to hit of creamy. I must know.
Speaker 1: I must know, Jenny. What is a fried that you
Speaker 1: do love? What's a fry that you say that I
Speaker 1: do love? Yeah? If it's Pokemon and I'm being like
Speaker 1: in and out, I choose you, and You're like, man,
Speaker 1: watch me fucking dusty with these fries. Um, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go for a burger king French fry. Interest.
Speaker 1: I think they're good. Janger Hi everybody, thanks for coming
Speaker 1: to the podcast today. Yeah. Look, I just love I
Speaker 1: love when when, like polar opposites, we all arranged on
Speaker 1: this show like this, when you get a really good
Speaker 1: hot one, it's great. Okay, are fine, but dog's fine,
Speaker 1: It's whatever, it's fine, right, But again, Carl's Junior does
Speaker 1: have waffle fries, and if we're gonna go, let's get
Speaker 1: some rubes. You got me back? I'm back? Is good,
Speaker 1: I will say too. Five guys have some pretty damn
Speaker 1: good fries. I love are I'll agree with that. But
Speaker 1: it was boardwalk fries in though greasy bag. Yes, please,
Speaker 1: I mean that's good. Value took that Louis on there. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that is really good. Yes, So everyone boycott in and
Speaker 1: Out Burger a California and staple. Yeah you might as well.
Speaker 1: I mean they're like big Christians and stuff. Actually, in
Speaker 1: Chicago it was Red Ranch. Have you been there? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I had that's good, pretty damn good. Yea wait, what's
Speaker 1: Red Ranch? It's like a local place. Oh yeah, it's
Speaker 1: like almost like a smash Burger, and you know they're
Speaker 1: they're very salty, like like personality wise in there. Oh oh,
Speaker 1: is that is it? A chain or is it like
Speaker 1: that spot where they just flame you when you go
Speaker 1: when you ask a spot? Okay spot, but it's not.
Speaker 1: But there's been multiple of those in Chicago. Of the
Speaker 1: rude service is our thing kind of thing. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I just love any place that treats me like shit,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, King Fries. Maybe that's why
Speaker 1: you all light in and out. The customer service is fantastic.
Speaker 1: It's the Christianity that we're allergic to. Its hell, here
Speaker 1: is your fries. And did you know that God loves
Speaker 1: you so much that he gave his only begotten signed anyway,
Speaker 1: John three six, have a great day, Jenny. All right,
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a quick break and we'll be right
Speaker 1: back to talk about some hard hitting news rather than
Speaker 1: off floppy fries right after this and we're back, um,
Speaker 1: and so is Pro Publica with a fucking groundbreaking report
Speaker 1: that they revealed last Thursday. We learned that Justice Clarence
Speaker 1: Thomas has been accepting quote secret luxury trips from Republican
Speaker 1: mega donor Harlan Crowe for more than two decades. Uh.
Speaker 1: And this has included things like jet rides like using
Speaker 1: his like p jet his like Bombardier five hundred or
Speaker 1: whatever the fuck is called and going on his one
Speaker 1: hundred sixty two foot super yachts. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: mean lovers of the end of democracy for sure. Right
Speaker 1: now twenty years Errett, what was that movie about the mountains?
Speaker 1: Brokeback Mountain, very Brokeback Mountain. Oh, Jinny Thomas Is. She's like,
Speaker 1: you're not going up there to fish? Yeah, yeah, you're
Speaker 1: That's so funny because there is a picture of them fishing.
Speaker 1: Harlan Crowe, you mean Harlan nasty. That was a wonderful
Speaker 1: line delivered by Michelle Williams in that film. Anyway, So
Speaker 1: just like put these things, these things into perspective, right,
Speaker 1: the cost of a trip to go on a jet
Speaker 1: and then one hundred and sixty two foot super yacht
Speaker 1: for like nine days. People are being like on the
Speaker 1: conservative side could have gotten to around half a million
Speaker 1: dollars for that. But fortunately, I guess, like you know,
Speaker 1: he didn't have to fully disclose some things because the
Speaker 1: way you have to disclose things, or like if you
Speaker 1: go to someone's private home, you don't have to disclose it,
Speaker 1: but the second transportation is involved, you have to fucking
Speaker 1: disclose shit. And apparently it wasn't even just to do
Speaker 1: stuff with Harlan crow Like. It's it sounds like based
Speaker 1: on like certain flight logs, Clarence Thomas like used his
Speaker 1: jet for like a three hour trip to go to
Speaker 1: New Haven, Connecticut from like DC a few years ago.
Speaker 1: And again it's a problem because if you aren't disclosing
Speaker 1: all these gifts, especially if they're worth more than four
Speaker 1: hundred fifteen dollars, it's hard to tell how the fuck
Speaker 1: you're being influenced. Although these people swear up and down
Speaker 1: has nothing to do with anything. I've never had any
Speaker 1: case in front of him. I'm just a connective tissue
Speaker 1: to other plutocrats and the Supreme Court justice as well
Speaker 1: as you know, people like Leonard Leo of the Federalist
Speaker 1: Federalist Society. So there's only one people will stop lying.
Speaker 1: I wish people will stop lying, though, he no. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'd just be real because look, I'm gonna be real.
Speaker 1: If you let me rottle you one hundred and sixty
Speaker 1: two full the yacht, Yeah, next decision I'll make. There's
Speaker 1: your old decision, bro, It's true. I don't know. It's like,
Speaker 1: here's the thing is is you hear and you're like, wow,
Speaker 1: that's crazy, and then you also are like, nothing will happen, right, exactly,
Speaker 1: thing will happen. That's the thing. That's the that's the
Speaker 1: wonderful sort of ebb and flow of being an American
Speaker 1: this country and being half tuned into what's happening. Where're like,
Speaker 1: how the fuck can this happened? And then you immediately
Speaker 1: then modulate too, well, what the fun coming with? Yeah,
Speaker 1: what's gonna what's gonna? Oh? Is he really going to
Speaker 1: see justice? Yeah? Well you know who? Yeah, I know
Speaker 1: his name is literally Justice Thomas. But like so again
Speaker 1: we also found out like back in he only disclosed
Speaker 1: one trip back in nineteen ninety seven, and you know,
Speaker 1: apparently this isn't just this is just the tip of
Speaker 1: the iceberg. He like crowe also just made it rain
Speaker 1: on Clarence Thomas with all kinds of fun gifts, like
Speaker 1: giving him a nineteen thousand dollars bible that he wanted
Speaker 1: an auction that belonged to Frederick Douglas. Wow, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? That actually kind of a sweet gift. Weir,
Speaker 1: this kind of you your theory starts to hold up
Speaker 1: because Harlan Crowe's quote about it was like, I was
Speaker 1: at this auction and I saw the item come up,
Speaker 1: and I knew how much Clarence was a fan of
Speaker 1: Frederick Douglas, so I figured he had to have it,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, what a this is so fucking thoughtful. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're lovers, man, they're lovers. He also bought a fifth
Speaker 1: got him a fifteen thousand dollars bust of Abe Lincoln. Yeah, lovers. Okay,
Speaker 1: I only let me tell you something. If I gave
Speaker 1: you half a million dollars, it could just be like, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I just believe in your calls. But if I give
Speaker 1: you a nineteen thousand dollars Bible and a bust of
Speaker 1: Abraham Lincoln, my dick has been inside of you. There's
Speaker 1: no middle. Yeah. When the gifts, there's like now you guys,
Speaker 1: you guys have something good going on, and here's the
Speaker 1: other thing. Like he was flown out to like this,
Speaker 1: like other retreat he has where he would like apparently
Speaker 1: this guy Harlan Crowe would host like Clarence Thomas along
Speaker 1: with other like government officials and like business macmates and
Speaker 1: be like, hey man, they're just kicking it. Together. You know,
Speaker 1: I've no clue what they're talking about. I mean, yes,
Speaker 1: Leonard Leo, who runs the fucking Federalist Society, who's the
Speaker 1: architect of all of our current judicial fuckory that's going
Speaker 1: on in this country. They just kick it all the
Speaker 1: time together on their little bro hangs, and it's you know,
Speaker 1: all to the good. What what it turns out? Though,
Speaker 1: Like in the La Times about twenty years ago, they
Speaker 1: like they busted Clarence Thomas for not reporting shit, and
Speaker 1: ever since like that happened, Clarence Thomas has just stopped
Speaker 1: reporting or disclosing things all together, like ever since he
Speaker 1: got burned. He's like, yeah, well I'm not gonna do
Speaker 1: that shit anymore. And not only that, Crow regularly has
Speaker 1: Thomas stay at his invite only resort, where again it's
Speaker 1: like it's like an all men's retreat. Here's the thing.
Speaker 1: This place has a clay tennis court, a batting cage,
Speaker 1: a replica of Hagrid's hut from Harry Potter, bronze statues
Speaker 1: of gnomes and and if a nineteen fifties style soda
Speaker 1: fountain where they make like bespoke milk milkshakes. This just
Speaker 1: sounds great man, where please go back to the the
Speaker 1: Hagrid's House. Okay, I don't. I'm not I'm not a
Speaker 1: Harry Potter like person, So I don't know what Hagrid's Hut.
Speaker 1: I know, I know what, I know what who Hagrid is,
Speaker 1: But I don't know what the significance of How like
Speaker 1: is that like a pizza shop for Harry Potter fan?
Speaker 1: I think well maybe maybe, um they go there, that's
Speaker 1: where they talk about all their anti trans stuff. Yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: they're like jk Rowling the Hagrid's Hut where we enter
Speaker 1: and come up with new ways to vilify into humanize
Speaker 1: train speaker for legislation. I mean this, this sounds. This
Speaker 1: sounds so I feel like if we want them to
Speaker 1: turn around, we have to say they don't know you
Speaker 1: guys are lovers and just be like, no, it's fine.
Speaker 1: You know what. Actually these sound like really great gifts.
Speaker 1: Let's celebrate your guys love. And then he'll be like, no,
Speaker 1: I'm not No, I'm trying to influence him for judicial decisions.
Speaker 1: Oh good, we used homophobia to bring the truth out.
Speaker 1: Fantastic as all this shit like is so influenceable. Like
Speaker 1: I'm listening to everything you've been listing off, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I would give you what ever you won't if you
Speaker 1: let me come to this ship. Like it's like whatever
Speaker 1: you want, You're just say milkshake. Sways you oreo milkshake
Speaker 1: is We're simple, We're based on motherfuckers, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. And he gave me a hagrid I thought
Speaker 1: it was a real milkshake nod, just to enjoy his
Speaker 1: Oreo milkshake. Yes, if you get so chummy with people
Speaker 1: and you know you're all on the same page, that's
Speaker 1: really all it takes, truly, you know, just to be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: of course we get it, like without even saying. You know,
Speaker 1: you don't really have to, but to be in proximity
Speaker 1: to these people is really Again, it's like one of
Speaker 1: those things where like of course they are and then
Speaker 1: you're like, of course nothing can happen. Not to mention, Okay,
Speaker 1: this guy he isn't just giving money to the GOP.
Speaker 1: He also he loves making it rain on people like
Speaker 1: Joe Manchin and Kirsten Cinema, two senators who've gotten the
Speaker 1: way of a lot of shit recently. So you're like, okay,
Speaker 1: so this motherfucker knows what he's doing. He knows exactly
Speaker 1: what he's taken to Hagrid Town. They're all going to
Speaker 1: Hagrid's hume, you know what I mean? Uh? In terms
Speaker 1: of like what Democrats are talking about, Like Democrats on
Speaker 1: the Senate Judiciary Committee have said that they're gonna address
Speaker 1: this like probably in the same way they're addressing police reform,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Yeah, you look sure, I'll
Speaker 1: address it by saying I'll address that. I will say
Speaker 1: out loud this is a problem. But another member of
Speaker 1: Congress was saying, like, you know, it may not be
Speaker 1: worth the fight, since it would destroy people's faith in
Speaker 1: the court. M sir, sir, what do you think the
Speaker 1: sequence of events here is that we're on the precipice
Speaker 1: of losing faith in this body, Like people do not
Speaker 1: give a people have already lost faith in that ship
Speaker 1: unless you're one of these like monster bastard donors that
Speaker 1: use it as like your fascism accelerator tool, then in
Speaker 1: which case you fucking love it. Yeah. So it's very
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's it's gets you feeling a little
Speaker 1: bit like, ah, well, maybe they'll address it out loud.
Speaker 1: And that's the most we can get. Yeah. I also
Speaker 1: wonder too if because they're all such awful, horrible people,
Speaker 1: is it really influencing or is it just terrible people
Speaker 1: coming together talking about terrible shit, right? Like the uh,
Speaker 1: the donors just like, hey, maybe we should stop women
Speaker 1: from having from having abortions, and Clarence was like, I
Speaker 1: was gonna do that anyways, let's just starty like right
Speaker 1: right right. I feel like they're all so bad it's
Speaker 1: going beyond influence and it's really just demons hanging out
Speaker 1: with each other in Hankerd's huts, has it? You know
Speaker 1: what's wild? Though? Too? There was a there was like
Speaker 1: a district judge that was confirmed by Trump like when
Speaker 1: he was in office. They swore this guy in at
Speaker 1: Harlan Crow's fucking house, Like, yeah, this guy's fucking library,
Speaker 1: I do. There is this one clip that's just kind
Speaker 1: of fun to hear because you know, like apparently fucking
Speaker 1: Clarence Thomas like loves to portray himself as this like
Speaker 1: folksy guy who's like really not into like he's just
Speaker 1: really into RVs and shit. But we're hearing about all
Speaker 1: these like how he's yachting it up and taking pjets.
Speaker 1: I just want you to hear this, like how he
Speaker 1: would how helpful of shit this guy is when he's
Speaker 1: describing himself like in this documentary. You know, I don't
Speaker 1: have any problem with going to Europe, but I prefer
Speaker 1: to United States, and I prefer seeing a regular parts
Speaker 1: the United States. I prefer going across the rural areas.
Speaker 1: I prefer the RV parks. I prefer the Walmart parking
Speaker 1: lots to the beaches and things like that. Oh really,
Speaker 1: I go what Walmart parking lot? Well, if that's part
Speaker 1: of RV, that's RV culture, because you could you could
Speaker 1: take your RV to like the Walmart. That's like a
Speaker 1: thing I didn't know. Putting his pubs on people's coach, Yeah,
Speaker 1: exactly all over them. I mean there's so much pubic
Speaker 1: hare everywhere. I love it. I mean I like to
Speaker 1: go where over the pubic hair blows, and that's where
Speaker 1: I end up, you know, just setting down with Jenny
Speaker 1: and she comes up with her you know, fantasies about
Speaker 1: overturning elections, and I just put pubes on coke cans
Speaker 1: and laugh at Anita Hill's you know, terrible misfortune. But yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll see, I mean right now he has put out
Speaker 1: a statement finally, because like Harlan Crowe's like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: this guy's my friend, man, what do you want me
Speaker 1: to do? Like, I just I never did anything untoward
Speaker 1: and it's just hospitality. Justice Thomas has said, quote, Harlan
Speaker 1: and Kathy Crowe are among our dearest friends, and we
Speaker 1: have been friends for over twenty five years. As friends
Speaker 1: do we have joined them on a number of family
Speaker 1: trips during more than a quarter century. We have known them.
Speaker 1: Early in my tenure in the court, I sought guidance
Speaker 1: from my colleagues and others in the judiciary and was
Speaker 1: advised that this sort of personal hospitality from close personal
Speaker 1: friends who did not have business before the court was
Speaker 1: not reportable. And he was just like basically doing the
Speaker 1: I didn't know I couldn't do that defense, which will
Speaker 1: hold up when you're in fuential in this country. If
Speaker 1: you don't know you could do that, then you shouldn't
Speaker 1: be on the court. The simple as that. And also
Speaker 1: it's just like, all right, look like we're poor so
Speaker 1: comparatively today, I mean you are okay, So I mean
Speaker 1: I have wall Yeah, I need to. That's that I
Speaker 1: should get some titties on my wall to class this
Speaker 1: place up. It will it will your income someone's five
Speaker 1: double d oh. Shit, that man got some double ds
Speaker 1: on this. You're not poor. You're not poor. I'm not
Speaker 1: classic no, but no, comparatively, we are poor compared to
Speaker 1: these motherfuckers. So when we hear all this ship, when
Speaker 1: we hear all this shit, like it's like, God, damn
Speaker 1: all this all this, But like, ain't it's not that?
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, man, you're rich and you're invited people
Speaker 1: like you said to do rich shit with you. Like
Speaker 1: why why not the clote? Why disclose that? Like unless
Speaker 1: you was on some shit, going on a yacht and
Speaker 1: going to somebody's house and somebody give you a gift,
Speaker 1: isn't bad unless you know all this shit is swaying
Speaker 1: your decision making as a judge of the highest court
Speaker 1: of the land, so you just look guilty. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: that's why men are bad. That's why men are bad
Speaker 1: liars and bad cheaters, because like you do, you do
Speaker 1: the dumbest shit. Like if you if you know you
Speaker 1: want some shit, don't not disclose it, disclose everything. You'll
Speaker 1: be like what I disclose all that shit. I don't
Speaker 1: do that because it's like, nothing's gonna happen to them. No,
Speaker 1: that's happened to you, Like the ship with Man, they're
Speaker 1: like what you got? It's like the thing. It's like
Speaker 1: with Trump, everyone's like he's going He's not gonna fucking jail.
Speaker 1: He will get away scot free. Nothing will happen. These people,
Speaker 1: they're above the law. Just go just get on TV
Speaker 1: and be like, hey, everybody, I'm super above the law.
Speaker 1: So like, don't even worry about it. Yes, go back.
Speaker 1: They're just wasting my time right now. It's all okay,
Speaker 1: I don't wear your boy will be free after this.
Speaker 1: And I would love so badly to fucking eat these words.
Speaker 1: But again, like I've said in past episodes, history shows
Speaker 1: me the data set I'm looking at, it won't fucking
Speaker 1: happen because it didn't. They had their chance with Nixon
Speaker 1: and they didn't do it, and then that emboldened Reagan
Speaker 1: and they didn't do shit, and now here, hey, here
Speaker 1: we go. But yeah, we shall see what goes on
Speaker 1: in those parts. But again, I think to your point,
Speaker 1: Jackies is like it the reason he can't even talk
Speaker 1: about it is because it reveals just how politicized that
Speaker 1: body is, rather than being like, oh my god, we
Speaker 1: are completely objective. I'm like in a fucking hyperbaric chamber
Speaker 1: where people can't even talk to me when i'm unless
Speaker 1: I'm like on the bench here, and you realize, no,
Speaker 1: they're chumming it up. And from there they hear people's
Speaker 1: designs on what they think American can be, and if
Speaker 1: they agree, then you know they kind of know which
Speaker 1: which which direction to move in. Okay, let's move on
Speaker 1: to an other fucking big story too in the Tennessee
Speaker 1: State House. So two Democrats were expelled from the Tennessee
Speaker 1: House after they joined in a protest the week before
Speaker 1: on the House floor, which only happened the only reason
Speaker 1: that they engaged in this protest for just so you realize,
Speaker 1: is because the Republicans during the session, they fucking turned
Speaker 1: off their microphones during the debate because they're like, they're
Speaker 1: they're they're saying, they're just spitting too many facts and
Speaker 1: they're trying to make us feel bad. We got to
Speaker 1: cut the microphone off. So they used a bullhorn, and
Speaker 1: apparently they're like, oh no, no, no, They called it
Speaker 1: a disruption, and a lot of people were likening it
Speaker 1: to like January six on Fox. They were like, this
Speaker 1: is why we can't have people just invading these political
Speaker 1: buildings and things like that. And you're like, uh, but whatever,
Speaker 1: I don't have time to pick. It's insane. But despite that,
Speaker 1: there were no arrests and the protesters were entirely peaceful,
Speaker 1: So really not like January sixth at all. These were
Speaker 1: like students and activists who are like, we are ying,
Speaker 1: you are doing fuck all, what is going on? And
Speaker 1: now here's where the racists, where the racist bit comes in.
Speaker 1: Only two of the three were Justin Jones and Justin Pearson.
Speaker 1: You know again, Jones said for you know, basically said
Speaker 1: we called for you all to ban assault weapons, and
Speaker 1: you aspond. You responded with an assault on democracy. So
Speaker 1: the third member of this protest was a woman named
Speaker 1: Gloria Johnson, who she was one vote shy of being expelled.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know which person suddenly had
Speaker 1: a change of heart to flip the math when the
Speaker 1: vote seemed the exact same for these two black members
Speaker 1: of the State House. But when it came to her, it's,
Speaker 1: as she said, my survival is probably due to the
Speaker 1: color of my skin. I think it was done on
Speaker 1: purpose for sure, but sure of course they were just like, hey, Jeff,
Speaker 1: why don't you keep her ind to seat? Let's see,
Speaker 1: let's see these libs explode and they like, you know again,
Speaker 1: we've there's been like blame, get condemnation. But when you
Speaker 1: look at Tennessee, actually that's they're they're kind of ahead
Speaker 1: of the curve when it comes to going full fash
Speaker 1: like you Yeah. In twenty eighteen, this political science professor
Speaker 1: created like a scorecard as like a way to like
Speaker 1: analyze and assess like sort of the healthy, like the
Speaker 1: level of healthy democratic norms that existed in a state.
Speaker 1: Tennessee was dead fucking last on that list. You know,
Speaker 1: this is another state that has been jerry jerrymandered so
Speaker 1: bad that there isn't a single state Senate seat that
Speaker 1: is competitive, which essentially guarantees they have this like super
Speaker 1: duper fucking majority to basically be like, man, we can
Speaker 1: do whatever the fuck we want, including expelling people who
Speaker 1: are merely voicing like concern over what is happening, not
Speaker 1: to mention, we can dilute black political power by expelling
Speaker 1: these two black politicians, and you know, this is also
Speaker 1: just disenfranchising the many black residents that these two people represent.
Speaker 1: And and it's still possible they could run again, but
Speaker 1: we're still we don't know yet what these creeps in
Speaker 1: the state House might do to try and find a
Speaker 1: way to prevent that as well. But they definitely, they'll
Speaker 1: definitely find a way. And it's just it's if you
Speaker 1: listen to the way stuff was said, it was so
Speaker 1: disgusting and like you need to behave you're lucky to
Speaker 1: be here. All that fucking bullshit that they throw. It
Speaker 1: was so very awful to watch, really, and I think
Speaker 1: a lot of people are like, this is the heart,
Speaker 1: Like what people fear is is like a lot of
Speaker 1: copycat shit like this happening in these other red states
Speaker 1: where they have these majorities, where they are going to
Speaker 1: disenfranchise voters, not by trying to overturn an election, but
Speaker 1: I'm merely just expelling like rightfully elected people just to
Speaker 1: kind of keep the momentum going for whatever fun. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna lie. I did not really know that this
Speaker 1: was a possibility, you know, just have never heard of it. Yeah, this,
Speaker 1: so I was like, it is that easy to get
Speaker 1: nigga's out of fucking and and now that like one
Speaker 1: group has done it, the fear is, yeah, it's around
Speaker 1: the country. I'll be like, oh, we can get the
Speaker 1: niggras out this easy. Yeah, let's do it. I know
Speaker 1: we need is if we have a two thirds majority
Speaker 1: and we have supermajorities, we can do fucking anything. And
Speaker 1: usually we hope that there's some kind of balance. But again,
Speaker 1: the way these especially after the twenty twenty census, the
Speaker 1: way these maps have been carved up, it's fucking very,
Speaker 1: very fucked up and scary. So we'll see, but I
Speaker 1: mean like it's good good to see. I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know if it's good to see, but rightfully, all
Speaker 1: the people that were in the state capital were like,
Speaker 1: this is an absolute fucking disgrace. What the fuck are
Speaker 1: you doing? And it's so wild to see how like
Speaker 1: how cowardly these fucking people are, because the second they
Speaker 1: interact with like people in the public who're like, what
Speaker 1: are you trying to do, They're like, Okay, get me
Speaker 1: to my fucking suburban so I can fucking peel out
Speaker 1: of here with my security. It's just yeah, so they're
Speaker 1: insulating themselves meanwhile, like people are dying less. So you know,
Speaker 1: this is why this to make one more point, this
Speaker 1: is like one reason why I want people to understand
Speaker 1: that even though we're seeing like you know, Republicans lose
Speaker 1: like in Wisconsin, or progress more progressives getting elected or
Speaker 1: things like that, the damage that we don't see is
Speaker 1: shit like this and the power that like these conservative
Speaker 1: and Republican congress members have, like the shit they're doing
Speaker 1: or the ship they can do under our noses, there's
Speaker 1: so much more scarier than the ship that we see
Speaker 1: on the news. Like so if this, if this story
Speaker 1: came to the news, like, imagine the ship that's come
Speaker 1: going on that like that we don't fucking know, in
Speaker 1: the power they don't have, and like the way they
Speaker 1: accumulate their power. Yeah, that's why I think, Yeah, that's why,
Speaker 1: that's why it's so important to actually be engaged with
Speaker 1: what's happening in your state. It's not just about federal politics.
Speaker 1: It's at the most local. Like the ship that you're
Speaker 1: going to feel first is at the local level. The
Speaker 1: federal ship, you know, makes its way to you. But
Speaker 1: if you're not aware of what's happening, I mean it's
Speaker 1: like the same thing, like Ohio is also in terrible
Speaker 1: shape because it's just so fuck that map is also
Speaker 1: carved up. They've got wild majorities and you know when
Speaker 1: we're just seeing like a curtailing of rights at a
Speaker 1: really rapid rate. So you know, just something to exhale
Speaker 1: about in an exasperated way. Yeah, it's just again, it
Speaker 1: just feels like, well, like they were so good at
Speaker 1: like they had the the Republican Party had the patience
Speaker 1: game where they just played long term, got in all
Speaker 1: these got basically under the skin and are now like
Speaker 1: like a sore bubbling up and just pus all over
Speaker 1: the skin of America just like right, gross, and it's
Speaker 1: too late for topical creams. Yeah. Yeah, it's like we
Speaker 1: gotta we gotta cut it out, we gotta exercise it.
Speaker 1: The thing is, yeah, you know, like to your point
Speaker 1: about like just like the long Game, they could they
Speaker 1: saw the writings, they saw the writing on the wall.
Speaker 1: They're like, okay, we're dealing with decreased to religious Like
Speaker 1: religiosity is on a downward trend. People are becoming more
Speaker 1: into like politics that appeal to people on the left
Speaker 1: and further left. What the fuck we do. It's they're
Speaker 1: basically just like, okay, then we have to rig the
Speaker 1: game until they don't know. It's like, okay, they're gonna
Speaker 1: beat us in basketball. But what we're gonna do is
Speaker 1: we're gonna sneak into the locker room and put a
Speaker 1: bunch of lead weights in their shoes and also put
Speaker 1: a little needles in their uniforms that distract them, and
Speaker 1: then the ball will be ten times heavier, the rim
Speaker 1: will also be about like five times smaller, and they
Speaker 1: won't get a fucking shotted and then we'll go on
Speaker 1: the other side and do what we do. So keep
Speaker 1: an eye out, but yeah, the fucker we continues. All right,
Speaker 1: let's take another quick break and we'll be back to
Speaker 1: talk about just fucking exorcisms, dude. And also, Russell pros
Speaker 1: fucked up accent in this movie. Right after this, and
Speaker 1: we're back, and so is fucking Russell Crowe with another
Speaker 1: banger character acting performance. You know, unless you unless you
Speaker 1: intentionally went to go see this movie. I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know that many people did or will, but you know,
Speaker 1: it is an Easter weekend, so maybe you wanted to
Speaker 1: do something in line with your beliefs, and what the
Speaker 1: time to bring the movie out? Yeah, you know, we
Speaker 1: should bring out on the weekend of Jesus's death or
Speaker 1: a rising, whatever the fuck it was. Yeah, a movie
Speaker 1: about the devil. Yeah. Oh you know what, it turns
Speaker 1: out it's gonna come out the fourteenth. So yeah, like
Speaker 1: it comes out the fourteenth. But I bet there's a
Speaker 1: sneak preview for the believers if you really you know,
Speaker 1: you know what was the real gift for Easter was
Speaker 1: almost some allegations of the Catholic church kids came out again. Yeah,
Speaker 1: another one right now, that's an Easter gift. Now that
Speaker 1: is some thing that all people can ignore to preserve
Speaker 1: their cognitive dissonance about what the real threats are in
Speaker 1: our society. But yeah, you're gonna this movie this coming out.
Speaker 1: It's called The Pope's Exorcist, starring Russell Crowe and his accent,
Speaker 1: which is so good that it's bad actually, or maybe
Speaker 1: it's so bad it's good, you know. Uhr does Mario
Speaker 1: no Super Mario Brothers? Yeah all right, oh yeah, Chris Prett,
Speaker 1: right exactly. Hey it's me Mario. Yeah, Hey, what's up, dude,
Speaker 1: it's me Bro sick dude, brother Lugi, Hey, Hey, Louigi. Dude,
Speaker 1: let's go. Let's let's let's bank some shrooms, dude, and
Speaker 1: go see fucking Star Wars. But the movie is up,
Speaker 1: apparently allegedly based on a true story about the real
Speaker 1: life Catholic priest Father Gabriel Amoreth, who claimed to have
Speaker 1: performed over fifty thousand exorcism fifty thousand golf. He's the
Speaker 1: Wilt Chamberlain of exorcisms. Okay, that's what he's claiming out here.
Speaker 1: He's putting up fucking numbers, which is apparently what fascinated
Speaker 1: quote quote unquote, and like, you produce it this, I don't,
Speaker 1: he I mean it must have. When they came up
Speaker 1: to him, he was like, hold on, fifty thousand, Okay,
Speaker 1: I might be in for this, he said. When he
Speaker 1: began reading the history of the real life priest, he
Speaker 1: said he was intrigued. Quote he left behind a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of his first person experiences to read through. I
Speaker 1: think there are like a dozen books or something like that,
Speaker 1: you know, So it was just his journey that really
Speaker 1: fascinated me to start with. Okay, I just I just
Speaker 1: did some quick mahlf maybe I'm wrong. Fifty thousand divided
Speaker 1: by three hundred and sixty five days is one hundred
Speaker 1: and thirty six a day. If you did, if you
Speaker 1: did fifty thousand in one year, yeah, that would be
Speaker 1: a wild place. I mean, who knows. There's too many.
Speaker 1: I mean one is too many. This guy, though we've
Speaker 1: talked about him before then on the show because he
Speaker 1: formerly like came to not prominence. We like first noticed
Speaker 1: him when he was like warning everyone of like the
Speaker 1: dangers of Harry Potter and yoga and he's like, it's
Speaker 1: though it's a gateway to the demonic. Yeah, you might
Speaker 1: have a point with Harry yoga. Yeah, like downward dog,
Speaker 1: downward to the downward to Hell? Did did did either
Speaker 1: of you? Like were exist in any like religious community.
Speaker 1: I went to like a like a Lutheran school as
Speaker 1: a kid. Yeah, um, I'm Jewish but not real Okay, good,
Speaker 1: I'm Jewish, but you avoided this crap in that practice.
Speaker 1: I never went too and we don't really believe in
Speaker 1: the devil. So, of course were hell, which is a great, great,
Speaker 1: great thing to have any religion. I grew up in
Speaker 1: a very Christian household, went to Christian school and all
Speaker 1: that bullshit, But my mom wouldn't let my not my mom,
Speaker 1: my grandma wouldn't let me watch Power Rangers anymore because
Speaker 1: she said it was demonic. Yeah. I remember having to
Speaker 1: talk my grandparents when they're alive. They had like their
Speaker 1: their church friends over and I had to play to
Speaker 1: them that jay Z and Beyonce were not consorting with
Speaker 1: the devil. Wow, because that was like a big, like
Speaker 1: church going thing where they're like, I don't know, that's
Speaker 1: what My dad is very Catholic religious to the point
Speaker 1: where he thinks that like chakras or demons. Okay, so
Speaker 1: this okay, So like, okay, so you are aware where
Speaker 1: people do happen. I'm aware, don't go there. That shit
Speaker 1: is demonic. I remember what an elementary school they told us,
Speaker 1: like Guiji boards are bad basically because they're against the
Speaker 1: Second Commandment. Okay, I walked fuck with Auigi board. That's like,
Speaker 1: because I want to fuck with the Second Commandment. No, no,
Speaker 1: because I do. Really, I will not have any other
Speaker 1: gods before him. I believe in spirits and ghosts and
Speaker 1: will know what happened, what happened with Did you? Did
Speaker 1: you have a thoroughly good experience with a Guiji board
Speaker 1: that you're like, I don't need to fucking touch that shit. Ever. Um,
Speaker 1: I had one that said my dad was gonna die.
Speaker 1: Oh no, it didn't. I didn't mean. But then it
Speaker 1: also said that I was going to meet Ringo star
Speaker 1: when I was twenty three. That never happened. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: then it's bullshit. That's like the way I became like
Speaker 1: an atheist was like being in school so much and
Speaker 1: they're like, like, my parents themselves aren't religious, but they
Speaker 1: just I just went to the school and they're telling
Speaker 1: me about prayer. And when I did not get a
Speaker 1: fucking Nintendo for Christmas that they told me I prayer
Speaker 1: brought you things. I was like, I'm off this shit.
Speaker 1: Fucking bullshit. You should try me investing. Huh oh yeah,
Speaker 1: you should see my vision board. Yeah, the new wave
Speaker 1: stuff isn't religious at all, brought me and I have
Speaker 1: you know what, despite it being on my board, I
Speaker 1: have zero lambos. So I don't know what's going on
Speaker 1: with that either. But you're not dead yet, Miles exactly.
Speaker 1: Imboso could happen this movie I was. I went to
Speaker 1: WrestleMania Los Angeles last weekend and right before I thought,
Speaker 1: you said Rustlemania like a rustle Crow fan event. Is that?
Speaker 1: Is that not what you heard? That's what I said.
Speaker 1: I went to Rustlemania. I went to Rustlemania. It was
Speaker 1: every accent. It was every accent he's ever done in
Speaker 1: the movie. It was one section. But I went to
Speaker 1: WrestleMania and and like right before of match it was
Speaker 1: called Helen the Cell, which is like a crazy, fucking
Speaker 1: violent match. They the Pope's Exorcist was the sponsor for
Speaker 1: the second night of WrestleMania, and like for Helen the Cell,
Speaker 1: they that's where they like dropped the trailer and like
Speaker 1: they like you know, tricked the audience to make us
Speaker 1: think somebody was coming out, and it was just music
Speaker 1: for The Pope's Exorcist, and then Russell Crowe gave like
Speaker 1: a speech to like hype the crowd up, and then
Speaker 1: they played a little bit of the trailer. And when
Speaker 1: I tell you, eighty four thousand people inside that stadium
Speaker 1: was booing the fuck out of this movie. I was like,
Speaker 1: they were booing the shit out of this ship like
Speaker 1: the entire time. I was like, you didn't they they
Speaker 1: paid money to be sponsoring, like WrestleMania and you just
Speaker 1: lost eighty five thousand people one and it was the
Speaker 1: funniest shiite. Wow, did they like like Undertaker or something
Speaker 1: was gonna come out because like the mood shifting, like
Speaker 1: oh commercial the two the two characters that were coming
Speaker 1: out are like not to get too deep into wrestling lore.
Speaker 1: Was this dude Finn Balor and Edge and they were
Speaker 1: playing more like oh I got demons inside of me
Speaker 1: and it can only be squashed in Helen to Sell.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah. So like the they thought like what
Speaker 1: a perfect match to promote our movie, and the audience
Speaker 1: was like, fuck this movie. Get to the match. Broda
Speaker 1: and Russell Crowe gave like a speech and like WrestleMania
Speaker 1: aren't you ready? And people was like fuck you kind
Speaker 1: of WrestleMania Ustlemania? Wait? Yeah, Edge is still fucking wrestling. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he did retire for like nine years because he broke
Speaker 1: his neck, but like better than it was in two
Speaker 1: thousand and eleven, So quitter. Wait wasn't he with um
Speaker 1: like Christian or something? Wasn't he was Christian? Yeah? I
Speaker 1: remember that. Whatever happened to Christian, I hate to see it,
Speaker 1: but it stress Oh really damn yeah. I mean it
Speaker 1: really does turn into like the Wrestler where it's like
Speaker 1: this is all I mean, honestly, they're truly the only
Speaker 1: from back then because we're around the same age. They're
Speaker 1: the only two from ned that's still going. But they're
Speaker 1: good still well again, like I just reminded me that
Speaker 1: at my school they like warned everybody they could do
Speaker 1: not fuck with the Uiji board. And this is also
Speaker 1: around the time the Craft came out, because like all
Speaker 1: the girls in my class were doing like slumber parties
Speaker 1: and haven't doing light as a feather, stiff as a board.
Speaker 1: And then like like back in school, they'd be like,
Speaker 1: we did it this weekend and ari Yelle went like
Speaker 1: nineteen inches off the ground and then like y'all are
Speaker 1: consorting with demons. But anyway, in addition to the fact
Speaker 1: that the world is actually not in short supply of
Speaker 1: shitty Russell Crowe films, a big problem is that this
Speaker 1: movie is like perpetuates this idea that quote the Catholic
Speaker 1: Church's effectiveness against demonic incursion, which is something that people
Speaker 1: like will point to. It's like, oh, you know, like
Speaker 1: we take we're not exactly take treating exorcisms as bullshit,
Speaker 1: like in this country because like legally people will say, like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's a valid form of therapy, you know, God, And
Speaker 1: there are a ton of stories out there about how
Speaker 1: like terribly damaging, like real life exorcisms are. Like last month,
Speaker 1: the chief of police at Colombia, he was like, he
Speaker 1: revealed that his police force quote used exorcism in prayer
Speaker 1: to tackle crime for decades and it shouldn't be too
Speaker 1: surprising when you see the fucking magazine cover of this,
Speaker 1: like the article that he was in. He's like, like
Speaker 1: if he's posed in front of a gigantic depiction of
Speaker 1: like Jesus being crucified and it says the fucking General
Speaker 1: versus the death the headline, Oh my god. And he
Speaker 1: also claimed that this was because quote, criminals use witchcraft.
Speaker 1: I know, culturally, people be fucking with that. I get that.
Speaker 1: And you know, he's saying his police are able to
Speaker 1: kill by praying while shooting. That's a quote, they pray
Speaker 1: while they shoot, which sounds like one of the most
Speaker 1: horrifying sentences I've ever fucking heard from a police officer.
Speaker 1: And just for some context, this is the same police
Speaker 1: force that was like also in the headlines in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty for massacring eleven people during protests against police brutality.
Speaker 1: No God, I don't know if God was in the
Speaker 1: building then. And it's not just like this one story.
Speaker 1: There are a number of stories where there's institutions like
Speaker 1: weirdly accepting exorcisms even when they like harm people. Like
Speaker 1: last summer in Canada, there's like a Bible camp they
Speaker 1: tried to exercise a boy who quote exhibited seizure like
Speaker 1: symptoms instead of like calling the a doctor or going
Speaker 1: to a fucking hospital, and the cops concluded there was
Speaker 1: no criminality, and the staff member that did the exorcism
Speaker 1: was like, I did it once and I'll do it again.
Speaker 1: I'll free any of these kids by the power of Jesus.
Speaker 1: And you're like, oh, I'm convinced that all these exorcists
Speaker 1: were just like sick people like Motherfucker's who just had
Speaker 1: a really bad like sore throat, and they was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: get out, and it was like that's the devil. That's
Speaker 1: the devil. I mean, when you have no context or
Speaker 1: or you just want to look at everything through your
Speaker 1: like the demons are everywhere. Confirmation bias then yeah, I
Speaker 1: guess they are. Like another example of these, like amateur
Speaker 1: exorcisms that go wrong, There was a toddler who passed
Speaker 1: away tragically last year due to a botched exorcism because
Speaker 1: they thought she was possessed because she would quote. This
Speaker 1: toddler would this is her demonic behavior was quote she
Speaker 1: would wake up and scream or cry periodically. Oh my god.
Speaker 1: Then I got a damn demon in my house right
Speaker 1: now in the form of my newborn son. I didn't
Speaker 1: realize is that this motherfucker was taken by demons. So
Speaker 1: again you're like, s, actually, actually that makes sense. What
Speaker 1: the babies by demons? That makes sense. Much easier thing
Speaker 1: to wrap your head around than like colic. Yeah, you're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: gassy or something. Nah, shit's demons, man, shit is fucking demons. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's a twenty twenty there was a real uptick and
Speaker 1: a lot of this ship and while people were like
Speaker 1: arrested and charging a lot of these examples, sometimes the
Speaker 1: quote exorcism component of the story like lets people off
Speaker 1: the hook for more serious crimes. So like in nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety seven, which you know, a case found two missionaries.
Speaker 1: They were cleared of murder charges. They were downgraded to
Speaker 1: manslaughter because they said they were trying to heal, not
Speaker 1: harm the person that they killed, and like just taking
Speaker 1: that is like, oh, well they thought it was a demon.
Speaker 1: Like no, a lot of Buddhists doing this stuff. All
Speaker 1: I'm saying, no, not really, isn't the me and more
Speaker 1: massacre by a bunch of Buddhists. Well, yeah, that's a
Speaker 1: little different person. But yeah, that's a little rough. But no,
Speaker 1: it's like it's not quite saying it's demons, you know,
Speaker 1: like there's a line. There'll just be more like ethnic tensions,
Speaker 1: like ideas of demonic shit going on. Hey, yeah, can
Speaker 1: I can I say one thing? Yeah, to all the
Speaker 1: writers we were talking to earlier, this is a great thing.
Speaker 1: If you want a good story, let me give you something.
Speaker 1: Go ahead and start writing it. A bunch of yogis
Speaker 1: who are possessed by demons in yoga class. That is
Speaker 1: a comedy waiting to happen. Yeah, that's a comedy. Is
Speaker 1: the work of the comedy waiting to happen? Comedy waiting
Speaker 1: to happen. I hope that's not back then, that's a
Speaker 1: that's a demon A right, I have no sine because
Speaker 1: I'm an invertebrate serpent man that has come from the
Speaker 1: demonic depths of Hell. But yeah, I would wash the
Speaker 1: shit out of that. And the thing is these were
Speaker 1: amateur exorcisms, I guess, not official Catholic Church ones, but
Speaker 1: like implicitly, the church's promotion of exorcism as a legit
Speaker 1: practice is a huge part of the problem because from
Speaker 1: the church, you're like, yeah, man, you got to exercise
Speaker 1: these motherfuckers. And according to one of the church's exorcism divisions,
Speaker 1: requests for exorcisms have only increased in recent years. Like
Speaker 1: in one letter from the church said, well more people
Speaker 1: of goodwill have have been experiencing various forms of spiritual
Speaker 1: attacks since the onset of the pandemic. Did y'all experience
Speaker 1: a form of a spiritual attack during the onset of
Speaker 1: the pandemic or did you just feel a growing sense
Speaker 1: of alienation and you know, desperation and cynicism brought to
Speaker 1: you by our actual health scape called capitalism. I felt
Speaker 1: a bunch of horniness it Okay, I think it was capitalism,
Speaker 1: But but it would be nicer if it was a
Speaker 1: demon because it seems easier to escape. I know, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean next thing, you know, Democrats will probably lean
Speaker 1: into that to avoid like grappling with any serious issues,
Speaker 1: and it would be demons actually, like and that's what's
Speaker 1: going on with the Supreme Court and brutality. White supremacy
Speaker 1: is a demon worth fighting, But it's a demon first
Speaker 1: and foremost. Let's just let's get that straight. And like
Speaker 1: I was saying, the exerci like the Exorcist, right, the
Speaker 1: Food the film that came out, what was that in
Speaker 1: the seventies. Yeah, yeah, that basically kickstart, like the Exorcism
Speaker 1: boom in America was brought on by that film. Apparently,
Speaker 1: right before The Exorcist came out, the Catholic Church was
Speaker 1: trying to quote downplay the more spruce, supernatural elements of
Speaker 1: the Catholic tradition because they're like, I think we're maybe
Speaker 1: losing people with this like ghost in a cave when
Speaker 1: then came out and like we're eating his blood and shit,
Speaker 1: maybe you know, let's find something a little more easy
Speaker 1: to fucking tap into. Then the movie came out and
Speaker 1: created quote a demand for the ritual that was unprecedented
Speaker 1: in American history, and they're like, we got something now,
Speaker 1: So Anyway, clearly this explosion of demons was related more
Speaker 1: to mental health and the power of suggestion, even though
Speaker 1: the story that The Exorcist was based on was also
Speaker 1: total bullshit, Like, oh yeah, two years ago, we learned
Speaker 1: that the real identity of this kid like Ronald Doe,
Speaker 1: the kid who was like, you know whose exorcism inspired
Speaker 1: the film, and according to his partner, he later admitted
Speaker 1: that he wasn't really possessed. He was just faking it
Speaker 1: because he was a quote, I was a quote bad boy,
Speaker 1: bad little boy. Yeah exactly. But anyway, it's just it's
Speaker 1: good luck to Russell Crowe and your terrible accent. But yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just so it's just so wild like that. There's
Speaker 1: just they love an exorcism. But then when you see
Speaker 1: people like try and do that shit in real life,
Speaker 1: you're like, that is not like you just shook that
Speaker 1: person to death or suffocated them or something. But hey, well,
Speaker 1: I know I know eighty five thousand people who are
Speaker 1: not gonna go see that shit, right. I bet there
Speaker 1: was one person who's like, I'm kind of here, Oh
Speaker 1: this is really good. Oh my hero fight Russell Crowe
Speaker 1: demon does satan. Yeah wow for that writer. When you write,
Speaker 1: when you start the movie, you gotta start it with.
Speaker 1: In nineteen seventy two, there was a priest the chief
Speaker 1: Exorsis m HM said yoga, it's demonic. Turns out he
Speaker 1: was right, and then fast forwards the present day. The
Speaker 1: guy who also wrote this, Oh, he also wrote a
Speaker 1: film called The Unholy Okay, and then also wrote Wanted Too.
Speaker 1: If you remember that. I love that movie, the one
Speaker 1: with Angelin and Jolie. Yeah. I don't know what the
Speaker 1: first movie is, but James is not so terrible sound
Speaker 1: like terrible movies. Yeah, and dude, this is what the
Speaker 1: guy looks like. Evan uh spill outopolous. This is this
Speaker 1: is the picture that comes up when you look at Wow.
Speaker 1: Oh man, this guy looks believes in demons. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: this guy has nepotism written all over him, I know, right,
Speaker 1: like like you look at him up, it's like, oh,
Speaker 1: son of a rich Greek oil baron or something, right
Speaker 1: right right. Anyway, we'll see what happens. Maybe you know,
Speaker 1: there'll be some kind of spiritual miracle that this film
Speaker 1: does numbers at the box office. But I'm a feeling
Speaker 1: this one's gonna be for the grandparents who want to
Speaker 1: freak you out and be like, have you seen the
Speaker 1: new Russell Crow film? Anyway? Jenny, thank you so much
