40
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,799

41
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: I don't know that's what I said. Dan Court was

42
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: Dan Cortes playing Dan Cortez like where they like it

43
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,280

48
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: demolition Manu Sharne. We're going to get to know you

49
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: a little bit better in a moment. First, we're gonna

50
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: tell our listeners a few of the things we're talking about.

51
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: We're gonna look at one case study of one of

52
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: the people who got that p P P money, uh,

53
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: and just how how that system has worked in general

54
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: It hasn't. Uh. We're gonna look at what what happens

55
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 1: when you have elections during a pandemic. We are gonna

56
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: look at tupac um Paca is even applying for these

57
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: UI benefits. We're gonna look at just do a Trump

58
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: bullshit round up. There's a lot of a lot to

59
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: catch up on there. Uh, And we are going to

60
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: talk about the troll sequel and what what that means

61
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:23,479
Speaker 1: for business in Hollywood. But first, uh, we like to

62
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: ask our guests. Well, first, I want to ask you

63
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: how are you? How are you? I'm fine, I have

64
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 1: a pulse. My whole life is just waiting to eat

65
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: and I'm waiting to sleep and waiting to eat again.

66
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: I'm waiting to sleep again. Oh so you punctuate your

67
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 1: days with eating and sleeping. Those are the I feel

68
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,799
Speaker 1: like people have different things they wait for, Like everyone

69
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: has the ones sleep where they're like, please let me

70
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,239
Speaker 1: just close my eyes and the sun comes up again.

71
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: Yeah I have not. I forget to eat lunch every day.

72
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: Yeah I do too. I mean food is the only

73
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: thing keeping me going at this point, and I'm running out,

74
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: which is bleak. I think that's what's that's what's the

75
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 1: the dangerous part is that if I eat too much,

76
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: I won't have enough for tomorrow. But I have to

77
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: have just enough to keep me alive for tomorrow. So

78
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: it's a game I play with myself. But um, okay,

79
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: you know, as I mean, this podcast, just recording this

80
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: podcast is me biding time until I can go eat

81
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 1: you know what it is, Yeah, or sleep at all.

82
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: I can't nap. I've tried. I don't know. It doesn't

83
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: work for me. I was able to in the past,

84
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: but I think the state of the world has made

85
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: my mind a simultaneously mush and also hyperactive, and I

86
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: can't do anything at all. I just kind of sit there. Um.

87
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: I have been watching Seinfeld for the very first time though.

88
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: That's been fun because it's like a time capsule of

89
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: like the nineties, and and it's been really fun to

90
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: escape into that, like pre pre anything like nine eleven creating,

91
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: Like the fashion is great, the it's just it's pure.

92
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: And so I've been escaping into the into Seinfeld. Yeah,

93
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: Jerry's game is bonkers. Yeah, he's really Yeah. Are you

94
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: what do you How is it for you to watch

95
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 1: a show that's like so seminal to other people and

96
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: you're just like mainlining it right now? Are you? Are

97
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: you just watching being like, Oh, I get why they

98
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,239
Speaker 1: like it. It's because it reminds me of a time

99
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: that was less complicated or are you Are you kind

100
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: of vibing with the show. Yeah, I love the show.

101
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: I I mean, I I understand why people like it.

102
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: It's like it's I can imagine if I grew up

103
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,039
Speaker 1: watching it, I would really like it too. And I

104
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: kind of feel like I'm playing catch up to a

105
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: lot of things because I only watched Curb Your Enthusiasm

106
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: for the first time last year too, So I feel

107
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: like I'm catching up to all of these figures, like

108
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 1: comedy figures that everyone's really loved this whole time, like

109
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: Gerry David or Jerry Seinfeld. But I really, I mean,

110
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: I'm enjoying it. It's it's funny that I just intended.

111
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: I feel like there are blips in my cultural knowledge

112
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: just because I'm like maybe a child of an immigrant

113
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: family or um, just being Syrian or learning Arabic first

114
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: and before English. I think that made me have a

115
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: couple of cultural blips as far as like entertainment goes,

116
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: and Steinfeld happened to fall in there. Um, But I'm

117
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: glad to be catching up. I mean, like now is

118
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: the time. But it does make it kind of strange.

119
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: Because like I want to talk to people about it,

120
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: and everyone's like, I don't remember this episode, Like like

121
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: I don't like like this is like from twenty years ago.

122
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. Oddly, I never feel the generation gap

123
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: more than when I hear people your age talk about

124
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: nineties fashion. Like I saw this when we were doing

125
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 1: our m I B recap and I was like making

126
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: fun of Will Smith's clothes, and Jamie was like, his

127
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: clothes are so great, And you're saying the fashion in

128
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: Seinfeld is great, whereas I I have a memory of that,

129
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: of the that fashion, and I look on it with

130
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: a great shame and derision. But I feel like young

131
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,679
Speaker 1: people are are all about that nineties fashion, that black

132
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: I mean Jerry Seinfeld shirt. Right. Well, here's here's a difference.

133
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: I think of thank you for calling me young, Thank

134
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: you for calling me young. First of all, I think

135
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: a lot of people turned thirty in Quarantine. So thirty

136
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: and Quarantine, Oh happy Cordie. Wow some people, And that's

137
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: not forty, but people, Jack, you have a Cordion, I

138
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 1: will have a Cordie. Whoa over the hill? Huh? What's that?

139
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: Why did that? People? I remember? That was like the

140
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: one the three kinds of balloons. You was here at

141
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: the store, it would be like Dad's grads, Mom's happy

142
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: birthday and over the hill. That's forty right, I think so?

143
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: Or is it a move? Is it subjective based on society? Yeah?

144
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: I think it's like the Wednesday of your life cycle.

145
00:08:55,960 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: It's like you're almost there. Instead of having a weekend

146
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: to look forward to, you have everything being bad and

147
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 1: people starting to ignore you. Buy well, Sharine. We like

148
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: to ask our guest, as you know, what is something

149
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: from your search history that's revealing about who you are? Okay? Well,

150
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: I did look this up this morning because I was

151
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: genuinely curious, and I kid you not. The first one

152
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 1: was best yoga poses to cry in And Okay, that's unfair.

153
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 1: I don't mean to laugh because at whatever you're going through,

154
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: I'm just it's that it was the thing that was

155
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: amusing to me was the thought put into it. Now,

156
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: when you are thinking about a pose, is it that

157
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 1: you don't you're thinking that the way in which you

158
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: might be crying, you don't want to strain your back?

159
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: Like what means bet? Like what if it was like

160
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: a hyperventilating cry? Like what if it was like a

161
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: hyperventilating like if what if I have like a shortness

162
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 1: of breath cry, Like it's a child pose better than

163
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: like a mountain pose or a tree pose. I think

164
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: what started all of this because I started crying while

165
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: I was doing yoga the other night, and then the

166
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: search results are actually kind of interesting because apparently crying

167
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: during yoga was like a whole thing. Like I people

168
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: like I read this article about this girl that was like,

169
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 1: like I cried during yoga for the first time, but

170
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: it was more about her like realizing something about herself

171
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: or like getting composed. And when I was crying, I

172
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: was like trying to do crow pose, which is really

173
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: hard and I can't do it because I have no

174
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: arm strength, but I cry was like I got frustrated

175
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: about it. Was also like before I did yoga, but

176
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: before I decided to do yoga that night, I wanted

177
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,439
Speaker 1: to cry, Like I was like should I cry or

178
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: should I do yoga? And I was like, you know what,

179
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 1: I'm not going to cry right now. I'll do yoga.

180
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: And then it kind of caught up to me as

181
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: I was doing it, and then it's like the pinnacle

182
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 1: of that was like me trying to do crow and

183
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: I was like, I can't fucking do it. I can't

184
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 1: do it. Ship. Then yeah, why that considered crow because

185
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: that looks like I do crows stand on there. Oh,

186
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: I get it. Your your feet are the crow's head.

187
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: I guess, is that right. I've never thought of that before.

188
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't prow is like you, I

189
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: don't know why it's called crow pro. You're standing on

190
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 1: your on your hands, your hands and like your your

191
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 1: knees are kind of like in your in your armpit area,

192
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: and yeah, yeah, I just always wanted to be able

193
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: to do like a headstand or a handstand, and I

194
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 1: could do like a supported headstand if I have a

195
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: fucking wall, but it doesn't count. So I've been trying

196
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: to practice yoga. But then I just start crying that.

197
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 1: I'm curious when you actually searched that. Was there a

198
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: resource that was saying like, if you're gonna cry, be

199
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 1: in these poses or did it just sort of connect

200
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: you to articles about the experience of crying during yoga. Yeah,

201
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: it was more like that. There wasn't anything that really satisfied.

202
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: There wasn't anything in the vein of my existential crisis.

203
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: So that's like there's more, just like yoga can help

204
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 1: you find yourself. And it's crying because okay, wait, I

205
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 1: found this article and you do yeah to to achieve

206
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,719
Speaker 1: sab sana. Yeah, no, ane of that, none of that.

207
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: What is something you think is underrated? Tree? Okay? I

208
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: thought about this and I think I landed on again

209
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: with my my life circling and orbiting around my fridge.

210
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: Kimchi and saur Kraut, incredibly underrated one they keep forever

211
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 1: like it's it's it's already fermented, it's already like it's

212
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: just delicious. Vegetables are just like going to be in

213
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: your fridge for months and months, which is very good

214
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,719
Speaker 1: right now because you can go in and just have

215
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: a dollar here and there on your lunch or dinner

216
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 1: or whatever the fuck. Um. Also it's delicious. I have

217
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: both Kimchi and Sauer Kraft, depending on my mood. Usually

218
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 1: I go for the kimche because I want some fucking

219
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 1: heat spice. But very underrated. No one fucking goes like

220
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 1: when I went to grocery shopping last time, tons of

221
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: Sara Kraut, tons of kim chee. I think it's just

222
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 1: slept on slept on flavor enhancer, and it gets you

223
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 1: some veggies because it's cabbage and like the other yummy things.

224
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: So that's when underrated. I think, add kim chee ship,

225
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 1: which is funny because they're like they're basically two sides

226
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 1: of the same coin, this like fermented cabbage, leafy vegetable

227
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: thing because a lot of I'm I think the origin

228
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: even of sara kraut is Asian, but like it even

229
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: though the word is German that a lot of people,

230
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: uh trace it back to being something like the Mongols

231
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:45,119
Speaker 1: or or the Chinese had brought to Europeans, but pickled vegetables.

232
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: I think I was talking about this a few weeks

233
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: about a few weeks ago. I was like, I was

234
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: getting more interested in the food like my grandmother, my

235
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: Japanese like older relatives would be eating from back then,

236
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 1: Like it's all food that keeps a very long time, um,

237
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 1: and it's easy to make with cheap ingredients. I was

238
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: just I was just extolling the virtues of cabbage, not

239
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: not a mirror two days ago. Yeah, I mean it's

240
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 1: it's it's especially now that's what we need more than

241
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: it's easy and and and shelf stable or like refrigerator

242
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: shelf stable. And also it's good for you. It's like

243
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: a good probiotic, rich fucking veggie thing. And I don't know,

244
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: I like it. So there's my underrated do you? Um yeah,

245
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: what kind of what kind of kim chee? Do you

246
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: have your house jack where you get your kim chee? At?

247
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: We have just a giant jar. We get it from

248
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: the Korean market and usually we usually making it am

249
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: I making it like we once in a while as

250
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 1: a side. No, no, we don't make it ourselves. No,

251
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: we we buy it. Um. My mother in law has

252
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: a refrigerator specifically for like pickled vegetables and kim chee,

253
00:14:55,600 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: because the the stink is real, the stink it will

254
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: infect your other vegetables. All our yogurt smells and taste

255
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: like kimchi. Uh. But that's all right because it is

256
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: you're You're right, it is. It is great. Um. That

257
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: is I can see how Americans like it wouldn't get

258
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: bought at a lot of American grocery stores. But it's

259
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 1: like my wife's main comfort food for sure. Oh hell yeah, yeah,

260
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: I'm curious. What are you throwing sauer kraut, like on

261
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 1: top of when you said, you know, just do a

262
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: little quick hit a sour krout, Like what are you

263
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: eating where you go? You know what, Let me turn

264
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: this peanut butter jelly up with some sour krout. No,

265
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 1: that's that sounds awful, but no, I mean, like, okay,

266
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: so my go to things right now, we're just making

267
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 1: like a big portion of something and just like throwing

268
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 1: a bunch of things in. So like yesterday I made

269
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: a big pot of quenoa, I had some some steam

270
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: broccoli and some veggies, and then I just made myself

271
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: like a veggie bowl with like everything I had in

272
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: my fridge, and like it just it's good with that,

273
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 1: like it adds like flavor to anything. It's like it's

274
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: it's like a salsa within veggies and it's just so good.

275
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 1: It's so yummy. So like little things like that, you

276
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: can just add it to anything you can eat on

277
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: its own. I've eaten sour crowd out of the thing.

278
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: Who cares? You know? You got to try if you

279
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,479
Speaker 1: live by a Salvadorian restaurant that does pupusas, get the cortillo,

280
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: which is the Salvadorian cabbage Slaw. Shout out to all

281
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 1: cabbage slaws across the world. We love you. Yeah, me

282
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: and Anna. We I feel like when I think of Papoosa's,

283
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: I think of Anna because we had a lot of

284
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: Papoosa's and when she lived in my area and we

285
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: would go to this one place all the time, get

286
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 1: some papusas and yeah, that's like the what's it called cortot? Wait, no,

287
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: what's what's the slot called cortito? See your ideal? It's

288
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: so good. I think every culture has some type of

289
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: fermented veggie vinegar thing, and um, well every culture, I

290
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: mean like a lot of cultures have it, and I

291
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: think many. Um, and they're just like they enhance anything,

292
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: and they're so simple and they stay a long time

293
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: in your fridge, and um, they're good for you. So

294
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: eat your veggies, is what I'm trying to say. What

295
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: is what something you think is overrated for you? Okay,

296
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: this one is very particular to my current existence. But

297
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: keeping my roommates plants alive I find very overrated. Um,

298
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 1: she hasn't she hasn't been here for I want to say,

299
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 1: two months. She's been at her boyfriend's place, which is great.

300
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 1: I had the place to myself totally fine, but I'm

301
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: stuck taking care of these plants. Um. I purposely don't

302
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: have plants because I can't handle the idea of taking

303
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: care of a living thing. It freaks me out. I

304
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: don't know why. That's why I feel like I've avoided

305
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 1: even though I love animals, I can't have a pet

306
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: right now because I just think the responsibility and commitment

307
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,919
Speaker 1: of maintaining another life form is too much, even a plant.

308
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,159
Speaker 1: All my plants are either fake or did um. And

309
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: so her plants are thriving, and I have this responsibility

310
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: of keeping them alive now, and I'm just it's like

311
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: that tweet, like that Kanye West tweet where he's like,

312
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: like someone left a water bottle on a plane, and

313
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: now I'm responsible for this water bottle. Like that's what

314
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 1: it feels like I'm experiencing with these plants. Like sure,

315
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 1: there's like no I haven't she hasn't been here, and

316
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to like talk to her, and she

317
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: and she's a doctor, she's like working in a hospital.

318
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: So I don't want to be like by the way

319
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 1: they are, they're thriving there. I'm looking at what right now. Well,

320
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 1: I spray, I spray the leaves and like some some nurturing,

321
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: like I rotate it. So on one hand, I've established

322
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 1: a bond with these plants and that that has been

323
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 1: an interesting trip for me because part of me is like,

324
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: I guess I am capable of keeping something alive, but

325
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: then another part of my brain is waiting for myself

326
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: to kill it at all times. Um like just throw

327
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: it out the window, like just plant. Just feel like

328
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wake up and it's going to be shriveled up. Yeah,

329
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: just let me Like, I just don't trust my s.

330
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 1: Is there any concern that when your roommate returns and

331
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 1: you have established this bond with her plants, that you

332
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: will feel that they are now your plants into some

333
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: kind of a Losing Isaiah type situation custody battle. Yeah,

334
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: I see a custom of that until just now. Yeah,

335
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,439
Speaker 1: just think about that. Watch the movie Losing Isaiah. It's

336
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: probably a wonder one comparison. I might, I might. I

337
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 1: might watch her like spray the leaves and then be

338
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 1: like I did it better, or like start, oh so

339
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: that's how you do it? Okay, Okay, now I'm kidding.

340
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just take I mean, plants are

341
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,160
Speaker 1: are beautiful and and and things, but it's just there's

342
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: a there's an element of it's just a a lot

343
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 1: of response psi ability. But look, you're overcoming it, get

344
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: yourself through more stress, but it's it's more stress, and

345
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 1: it's you're taking care of another life form at all times.

346
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 1: And like, what if I want to go away like

347
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 1: she would? What if I was also at my parents house,

348
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: for example, right now, and what if she was at

349
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 1: her boyfriend's place, these plants would shrivel up and die

350
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: and you know what I mean. But that's but those

351
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 1: are but those are the hard decisions we have to make.

352
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: If we're going to reopen America. We got to decide

353
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: which plants will live, some will die. But that's what

354
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 1: it takes. Some get worth the economy. They yeah, they

355
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,959
Speaker 1: said we need eight times as much testing. We need

356
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: eighty times as much testing as we currently have to

357
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: reopen America, and twice as much attention paid to plant

358
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: house plants. It's very important. Yeah, yeah, So what I'm

359
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: thinking of, that's my concern assuring what is a myth?

360
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 1: What's something people think is true? You know, to be false. Okay,

361
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 1: it's kind of ties in I guess a little bit

362
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: to the Google search history. I didn't think of it

363
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: until just now as I'm talking about it out loud.

364
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: But um, even though there's scientific evidence to back this up,

365
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 1: people think that working out makes you feel good. And sure,

366
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: there's some things calm, there's things called endorphins. I understand

367
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 1: whatever science, but I don't want to like gas myself

368
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: up right now. But I've been working out more consistently

369
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 1: than I have in a very long time. Like I've been.

370
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 1: I have, I have a whole setup. I rearranged my

371
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 1: entire apartment to have more room, I have weights, have everything,

372
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 1: and I've been working out pretty much every day for

373
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: like an hour, and I've never felt worse about myself

374
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: or just about the world. I've never felt worse like

375
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 1: I've thought. I thought, this is supposed to make me

376
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: feel good, and I feel But you're worthy. Your work

377
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: can't just be you set up a mat with some

378
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 1: weights around you and then you just turn the news

379
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 1: on and watch that for an hour straight, Like what's yours?

380
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,640
Speaker 1: Not what I'm doing? I don't know, I know what's

381
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: your what's your? Like? I mean, are you over like,

382
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 1: are you super gassed at the end so you just

383
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 1: feel dead every time? Or what? What's your level of

384
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,719
Speaker 1: intensity there? That's why I alternate. I'll do like if

385
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: I if I want to wash my hair that day,

386
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 1: I'll do something that makes me disgustingly sweaty, like a

387
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,680
Speaker 1: hit or a cardio workout, and then I'll do it.

388
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: But then I'll feel good and then I'll but it's

389
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 1: it's so it's too short lived, like it's too fleeting,

390
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: like and I at the end of the day, I'm

391
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: like in shape but miserable. So I don't know. I mean,

392
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 1: I guess I was miserable before, so it's off fair,

393
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: but it's I don't know. It's just do you feel

394
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:45,160
Speaker 1: a slight I mean a net improvement doing yoga? Doing yoga,

395
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: but do you have a net? And I feel there's

396
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: probably a net improvement from pre non like not working

397
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 1: out as much to working out that there is something

398
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 1: because you did say there is something, it's just super short.

399
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 1: There is something that keeps me coming back. I think

400
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: there's like, especially now, it's been helpful because when I'm

401
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 1: working out, I'm not looking at any type of meat

402
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: like phone or anything. I'm completely focused on what my

403
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 1: body is doing for that hour, that thirty minutes, whatever

404
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 1: time I give myself. So that's been interesting. Mind exercise.

405
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:21,719
Speaker 1: It's like you're only focused on doing this exercise than

406
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 1: this exercise, and like your body is moving and it's

407
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: like this choreography or whatever. That's been helpful and that's

408
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: what keeps me coming back. But I also think the

409
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 1: main reason I keep doing it, it's just to like

410
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,719
Speaker 1: waste an hour of the day, Like what else am

411
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: I gonna do? I might as well move around for

412
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 1: an hour and then to watching time Field, like you

413
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,360
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like I don't know. I think

414
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 1: it sounds like to just add some more mindfulness. Should

415
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 1: if you want to, if you really want to blow

416
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 1: by an hour, like take an hour to literally, you know,

417
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: listen to a talk, meditate, just be introspective a bit,

418
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: because that an hour can go by. But should I

419
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 1: feel much better when I actually take the time to

420
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: like deal, you know, process things and accept you know,

421
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,640
Speaker 1: go through some acceptance exercises and ship yeah, or learn

422
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: about what our conservative neighbors think by watching Fox News

423
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: for a little bit. I find that UH is a

424
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: really good put on a VR headset and watch Fox

425
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 1: in three six. Uh alright, guys, let's take a quick

426
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,400
Speaker 1: break and we'll be right back to talk about the news.

427
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 1: And we're back and we're continuing to sort of follow

428
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 1: the story of what happened all that p PP money,

429
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 1: that money that was earmarked for small businesses to protect

430
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 1: the paychecks and to keep people employees. Yeah. The p

431
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 1: p P is paycheck protection program or payment plan, but yeah,

432
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: the idea basically to keep people employed by small businesses.

433
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: And there's a there's a really good case study, uh recently,

434
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 1: and I guess popular. It's about a guy named what

435
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:21,400
Speaker 1: is it Monty? So you know he's just a regular

436
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: man of the people with the name Monty. Yeah. I mean, look,

437
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: everyone named Monty. I just think think old Monty Burns. Uh,

438
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,239
Speaker 1: Mr Burns. I love Monty. I love him. He's been

439
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: a great supporter of the president. You know, he owns

440
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,719
Speaker 1: three companies that basically work in the hospitality industry. Fucking

441
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: did two over two billion in revenue last year just

442
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: killing a game or hotels, seven thousand fucking people employed,

443
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 1: and then the pandemic hits cuts of his staff and

444
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 1: still takes fucking P p P money to the tune

445
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: of nineties six million dollars. Now we keep hearing about

446
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: this ship because there's like Ruth's Chris. People are like,

447
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: why the funk are you taking this money? Or shake shock,

448
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 1: and a lot of companies were shamed into giving their

449
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 1: money back because the thing that they don't talk about,

450
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: which is another reason why we need, absolutely need to

451
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: get money out of politics, is lobbyists help even craft

452
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: this this kind of recovery legislation, And in this one

453
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: they put in a nice little provision that says, if

454
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,640
Speaker 1: you have a location that employs five people are less,

455
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: that's a small business. So even if you are a

456
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 1: massive company, you can apply for each location as a

457
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 1: company or as an entity because they employed less than

458
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,159
Speaker 1: five people. And this man Monty was using that exact,

459
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 1: you know, loophole to collect nineties six million dollars and

460
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: cut over of his staff. Now that money is meant,

461
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 1: like we all said, to keep the whole reason is

462
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 1: to keep people employed so they're not going on unemployment.

463
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: Then these small businesses can ask for subsidies the government

464
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 1: to absorb that hit, and the government's like, hey, if

465
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: you spend sev of this money on like payroll expenses. Um,

466
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: we like, then the debt will be forgiven. But based

467
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,880
Speaker 1: on everything we're seeing from Monty, this dude just took

468
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: the is just taking the cash and writing medium posts

469
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: about ha ha, like I was poor a long time ago,

470
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 1: so funck y'all this mo money essentially Yeah, I mean

471
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: it's so if you spend seventy of the money on paychecks,

472
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,400
Speaker 1: you don't have to pay it back. And he's like, yeah,

473
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 1: I'm not going to do that instead of in a

474
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: fire of my employees and then pay out dividends to

475
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 1: holders of preferred stock whatever the funk that means. It

476
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: just means like basically finding a way to make rich

477
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 1: people richer. Uh well, rather than taking that money from

478
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: those dividends and putting it back into your fucking company,

479
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 1: or we talked about like buy backs that were a

480
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: big thing that we talked about for a lot of

481
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: the companies that got tax cuts during the Trump tax cut.

482
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 1: You know, money should if you were, if you were

483
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 1: worth a funk, you'd put that money back into your business.

484
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 1: You can keep people employed, rather than being like, well

485
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 1: the revenue is down, if I cut this off, then

486
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 1: I can get from the President that I can just

487
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 1: pay that back over two years. That's essentially what's doing now.

488
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: The thing that's really fucking disgusting about all of this

489
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 1: is this man goes to medium, like every great thought

490
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 1: leader does, to defend their bullshit. Um, and it really

491
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 1: really sincere essay. Uh, there's some really great excerpts that

492
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 1: won't kept pulled out. Um. What he's like one of

493
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: the opening paragraphs talks about like why this isn't like,

494
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: you know, why this bailout is fine? And this is

495
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 1: what he says, quote, some politicians are too concerned whether

496
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 1: proposed government programs help small businesses rather than quote big

497
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: businesses or individuals instead of quote corporations. They seem terrified

498
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: they'll be accused of bailing out in industry or certain companies.

499
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 1: Is it preferable for a large business like Marriott to

500
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,719
Speaker 1: lay off hundreds of thousands of workers so we can

501
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 1: say we helped only small businesses? Interesting? Um, okay, interesting point.

502
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: Then he goes on to say, well, now let's make

503
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 1: in some xenophobia. This crisis was caused by either the

504
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 1: purposeful or negligent actions of a semi hostile foreign nation.

505
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: This is not a normal market condition. Goes on to say,

506
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: why is Washington protecting the Chinese? Why am I allowed

507
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: to legally pursue an American citizen or company but the

508
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: Chinese government is off limits? Why does Washington care more

509
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: about a communist regime than it does about its own citizens?

510
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 1: Great Trump tactic that he's using their um and then

511
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: find like really great one to sum it up. Media

512
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: concerns over our receipt of PPP funds are misplaced. The

513
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 1: PPP program was specifically designed to help companies like ours

514
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: as part of the national objective of shoring up businesses

515
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 1: and getting people back to work. But you are not

516
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: doing that right. You're taking the money and firing everyone,

517
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: taking money and using it as a low interest loan

518
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 1: to you know, just using it the way really wealthy

519
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: people use money to make more for themselves. Makes me

520
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 1: so mad. It makes me so mad because my dad,

521
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: he's a small business owner, he had to shut down

522
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: all his stores. Obviously it's like a clothing store. He

523
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 1: has one store open because the sales medical scrubs, and

524
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: that's been a really important thing for like, obviously people

525
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 1: are washing their clothes more often because they're if they're

526
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: working in the medical field, but he's been struggling a lot.

527
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: He hasn't gotten any financial help yet. And uh, a

528
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 1: lot of his employees like he's trying to pay them

529
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: as much as he can because they a lot of

530
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: them relied on that paycheck. But the fact that people

531
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: like this fucking just an awful person is like getting

532
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: so much assistance when he doesn't when and using it

533
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: the wrong way. It makes me so enraged because I'm

534
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 1: seeing firsthand how businesses are suffering. It's this class warfare.

535
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 1: Looks like this is this is money that should go

536
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 1: to you to help you, help your father, help other

537
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: small business owners. Because the thing is the government and

538
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: these wealthy people are exploiting our willingness to be humane

539
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: to our fellow human to excuse their greed. And they know, okay, well,

540
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: if these people take care of each other because they

541
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: don't have ship and they they're already treating each other humanely,

542
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take this cash and funk off and laugh

543
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: my ass off to the bank. While in my medium

544
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 1: posts say actually, I'm only getting seven hundred thousand dollars

545
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: in my salary this year because I took up big

546
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: pay cut each ship. These are the fucking people that

547
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: are stealing from us, and they laugh all the way

548
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: to the fucking bank. And I think, you know, it's

549
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 1: I really hope that out of this people begin to

550
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: see what these sort of manifestations are in our day

551
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: to day lives when we're trying to help smaller the

552
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: little guy quote unquote, and we have the but the

553
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: system is set up for assholes like Monty to swoop

554
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 1: in and pick up their ninety six million dollar check

555
00:31:55,800 --> 00:32:00,080
Speaker 1: and fire everybody. Yeah, empathy, But the thing is if

556
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 1: they get away with it, like that's what's enraging They

557
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 1: get away with it, that's what they do it over

558
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: and over again because we are government allows them to

559
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 1: do it. And so that kind of just makes me

560
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 1: feel so hopeless, and like, what is the Is there

561
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 1: a solution? Like can we actually like the fact that

562
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 1: we have to there is a little guy compared to

563
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: a big guy. The big guys always gonna want to

564
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 1: stay the big guy, you know what I mean? Like,

565
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: that's so rare that a fucking billionaire person is like

566
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:28,719
Speaker 1: actually distributing their wealth in a way that is helpful

567
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 1: for the betterment of the world and not just the

568
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: better rat of themselves. You know, I don't know. Yeah,

569
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I like America and American capitalism are a

570
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: system or a machine that's under stress, and we are seeing,

571
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: you know what what the we're seeing the problems really highlighted.

572
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: And you know, this is a great example of, you know,

573
00:32:54,720 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: just a perfect illustration of how empathy is a liability

574
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 1: in American capitalism. Uh, sociopathy and narcissism are an asset. Yeah.

575
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: And then just having an advantage, whatever advantage he used

576
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 1: to get to the front of the line prisonably something

577
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: with his money, uh also gave him an advantage. So

578
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 1: you know, the idea, I think, the idea that anything

579
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 1: like the underlying idea of capitalism that we like like

580
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 1: to use to justify it, that it's a meritocracy, just

581
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 1: is being uh put put to shame, like no nobody

582
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: can see what is happening here and believe that. Well

583
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: you see to hear how tone deaf. There is another thing, actually,

584
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 1: I want to point out from his medium post that

585
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: he said to defend himself against these attacks against capitalism Jack,

586
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: that he says, quote, I'm proud of our accomplishments of

587
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: the hotels I've bought and built, and of the thousands

588
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 1: of folks I've hired who have become like family to

589
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: me that I've just fired. I won't apologize for being

590
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 1: a capitalist in America or for being reasonably successful at it,

591
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,279
Speaker 1: but even a capitalist system with companies only and no

592
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 1: government backstop does not work. So him saying, you know,

593
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 1: this only works by me exploiting their labor and then

594
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 1: also asking the asking for subsidies from the federal government

595
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: that should actually be going to the people that are vulnerable. Okay,

596
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:31,240
Speaker 1: so anyway, this is what would starve to feed my family.

597
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: And it really is frustrating when these corporate leaders are

598
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: used the language of like, hey, we're a family, We're

599
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,800
Speaker 1: we're all a family here, and it's just what there's

600
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: completely either they don't have enough empathy to even have

601
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:54,839
Speaker 1: real human relationships with their family, or they're just you know, well,

602
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,399
Speaker 1: just appropriating language. I think what you do, though, two,

603
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,720
Speaker 1: is to insulate yourself um doing this kind of fucked

604
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: up ship. Is that you just have to use that

605
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: saying of like, it's just business man, and sometimes you

606
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 1: gotta make tough business decisions, because if you can use

607
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 1: that language, you can compartmentalize what that effect is on

608
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: an actual human being, because when you say tough business

609
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 1: decisions is different than putting up employee of mine on

610
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 1: the street to figure out how they're going to survive

611
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 1: so I can fucking buy whatever, you know what I mean, Like,

612
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,320
Speaker 1: then you gotta go that down that rabbit hole, and

613
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 1: it's that's too dark for somebody to do. So I'd

614
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: rather just say I'm treating this as numbers man. We

615
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:35,800
Speaker 1: just got to tighten the belt. We gotta make a

616
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 1: tough business decision. And that's where it ends, that's where

617
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: all the thought that. But yeah, it justifies, it justifies

618
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 1: having a severe lack of empathy. And I think it's

619
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 1: so I'm going to think about this for a while,

620
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 1: the fact that like empathy is empathy is not cohesive

621
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: to capitalism, right or like the idea of capitalism, like

622
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,840
Speaker 1: it just doesn't work. Yeah, you're not gonna make justify everything,

623
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,919
Speaker 1: but like, yeah, you're right, tough business. Know you don't

624
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: make money by giving the money away to fucking what

625
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,879
Speaker 1: the funk are you talking about. You're supposed to suck

626
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: up as much fucking money as possible till your cheeks

627
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: puff out, and then you fucking swallow it down and

628
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 1: get more till your body gets so bloated with fucking

629
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 1: greed and money that you know the world rots around you.

630
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: You described Kirby, you subscribed Kirby. Yeah, but this is

631
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 1: no dreamland. All right, let's talk about Tupac Tupac. So,

632
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 1: Kentucky Governor Andy Bashir has been doing like a pretty

633
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 1: decent job. He's the he's the Democrat, that one in Kentucky. So, um,

634
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,759
Speaker 1: you know, shout out to him taking over just what

635
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 1: the worst and most despised governor, uh prior to him,

636
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:55,319
Speaker 1: who was governor parding Like he was pardoning like absolute criminals,

637
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: like on his way out and like a couple of

638
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 1: them like reoffended and people are like what the fuck? Anyway,

639
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: So yeah, comparatively, but Shir is fantastic but also doing

640
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,279
Speaker 1: what he can in a red state to try and

641
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 1: keep people safe. So it's a tough job. Yeah. So

642
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 1: he had a press briefing on Monday where he wanted

643
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 1: to give a little anecdote about how people are exploiting

644
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: unemployment and he said, we had somebody so this is

645
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 1: not an example of him crushing And he said, we

646
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 1: had somebody apply for unemployment for Tupac Shakur here in Kentucky.

647
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,840
Speaker 1: And that person may have thought they were being funny.

648
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 1: They probably did, except for the fact that because of them,

649
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: we had to go through so many other claims. Cut two,

650
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 1: there's a guy named Tupac Shakur who lives in Lexington,

651
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: and he just was like what then got to check

652
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: all they had to do, so everyone was like, hold on, bro,

653
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,720
Speaker 1: this is this is a man name of Tupac Malik

654
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,880
Speaker 1: Shakur who was just like, yeah, bro, I converted to

655
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 1: Islam like in the late nineties. I like, I like

656
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 1: the surname because it wasn't mean like love of God.

657
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 1: But he was just like, yeah, that's why I changed

658
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: my name. But I'm a real guy. I work at

659
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,919
Speaker 1: a restaurant. My fucking restaurant closed down. I need help,

660
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: Like what the funk is this the owner of the restaurants,

661
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,320
Speaker 1: Like I just think it's so messed up. Tupac's a

662
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: great guy, Like they should have just verified, uh, like

663
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: you know that Tupac works here, But it's just so

664
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: funny when you keep reading this, everyone referring him to

665
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: the Tupac, but the the governor called him directly to

666
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 1: apologize and was like I'm sorry, Like that's fucked up

667
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:35,360
Speaker 1: because you can't just go off like oh that's a

668
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 1: funny name. That's got to be a joke, rather than

669
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:39,800
Speaker 1: taking the time like I have to do is be

670
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,479
Speaker 1: like that's a resident of our state. That is someone

671
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: who's of lives in Kentucky. Yeah, well that's crazy. They

672
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: didn't verify it before the press briefing before anything, right,

673
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:53,799
Speaker 1: They just like because I'm sure, I'm sure something. Someone

674
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: in that office is like, oh wow, you're you're not

675
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: wait to get ahold of this one Andy, someone applied

676
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: for a TUPAC to get an unemployment and then that's

677
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 1: how it goes like rather than people being having the

678
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,760
Speaker 1: cultural sensitivity, but like yeah, that could also be someone

679
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 1: else's name, like there was only one Highlander. It's also

680
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 1: an example of uh of just this this sort of

681
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:20,839
Speaker 1: lazy way that government. The government has just uh perpetuated

682
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 1: this myth that uh for that there's a voting fraud

683
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: or you know, the myth of the welfare queen, the

684
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 1: woman who is like cashing welfare checks and then like

685
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: driving around and a ranger over or whatever. Like it's

686
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 1: all this bullshit. That is just rich conservative people, uh

687
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 1: making up stories to justify their you know, selfishness and

688
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 1: over like making things as difficult as possible for uh

689
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:57,399
Speaker 1: underrepresented people. Yeah. Well, you know, luckily after the call

690
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 1: from the governor, Tupac was very chill as Tupac would be,

691
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: um and said, he said, I understand he's dealing with

692
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 1: a lot mistakes happen. There it is again, empathy, understanding, understand. Yeah,

693
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 1: it's a great guy to live and die in Kentucky. Right.

694
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 1: Shout out to Lexington, to Lexan and Kathleen and Beaumont

Speaker 1: you're named after a school kid had great times and

00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 1: that great. Yeah. All right, guys, let's take a quick

703
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: break and we'll be right back. And we're back and

704
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 1: real quick. We want to do like five minute just

705
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:24,320
Speaker 1: recap bullshit round up of the president. Uh, Miles, you

706
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 1: want to kick us off? Yeah, I figured we'll do

707
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 1: this so we don't have to get too into the

708
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 1: weeds of what he's saying, because we know none of

709
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 1: it is real and most of it is just to

710
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 1: create a headline or distraction. So here we go. He

711
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,320
Speaker 1: recently said on his China band that his killer instincts

712
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: may have saved the country. So he said, quote when

713
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: I when I did the ban on China, almost everybody

714
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,480
Speaker 1: was against me, including Republicans. Trump said, he said the

715
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 1: band was very early. Whether it was luck, talent or

716
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:55,200
Speaker 1: something else, we saved many thousands of lives. Wow, Okay,

717
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,400
Speaker 1: shut the funk up. Um. But then goes on another

718
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 1: thing he said, is he there was a headline that

719
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 1: said if someone from Tyson Foods and saying there could

720
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 1: be a meat shortage by the end of the week. Um.

721
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 1: And because many of his followers, yeah, they were you know,

722
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 1: they were just his followers, and they said, wait, I

723
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 1: can't get this porker beef. I have a god given

724
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 1: right to colon cancer. Uh. So he said basically that

725
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 1: the meat packing facilities would stay open, uh and operate

726
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 1: since they are critical infrastructure. Now that is what people are.

727
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:29,800
Speaker 1: There was a story that he may use the Defense

728
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 1: Production Act to basically forced these companies to operate, but

729
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 1: this has not been signed as is something he's teased

730
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 1: and again could just be something because many people were

731
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:44,439
Speaker 1: very just narrowly focused on like ar meats. Meanwhile, people

732
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 1: who are doing the processing of this meat are in

733
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 1: very close quarters, are very at risk, and I think,

734
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 1: you know, we need to look at that actually seriously.

735
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 1: That ship is dangerous. We we got this from meat.

736
00:42:56,160 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 1: We got this from meat, right, like different, I mean,

737
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,840
Speaker 1: we don't know different, a different kind of meat. But

738
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 1: if you're operating in such close corners and you're fucking

739
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 1: handling food and then packing it and like it can

740
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 1: find that's you're just asking for trouble. Yeah, I don't know.

741
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: It's funny. That just kind of a sign of how

742
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 1: things have changed that we're in the Defense Protection Act

743
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 1: to produce meat because during World War Two they just

744
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 1: rationed meat and people weren't allowed to eat as much

745
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:33,320
Speaker 1: meat as they wanted or dairy. And it was actually

746
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:37,800
Speaker 1: the first and only time that American heart disease rates

747
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 1: like dropped in the history of the country was during

748
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,880
Speaker 1: World War Two meat and dairy ration ng But it

749
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 1: got kind of written out of the textbooks because uh,

750
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:54,800
Speaker 1: the dairy the dairy farmers are powerful. Yeah, my, my, my.

751
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 1: I remember in elementary school, my book said, without three

752
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,799
Speaker 1: glasses of milk and two tea bone steaks a day,

753
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 1: you will die within four days. Just show you, just

754
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,239
Speaker 1: show you shriveled down into one of those little things,

755
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,959
Speaker 1: those little people from I have a feeling. Yeah, book

756
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,360
Speaker 1: was written by I think my book was written by lobbyists,

757
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,920
Speaker 1: but I'm not sure it was. On the back was

758
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:22,040
Speaker 1: like a got milk and it has has it has

759
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 1: a George Washington, but he has the milk mustache. Uh yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly. So.

760
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 1: A Washington Post analysis of two weeks of his briefings

761
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:40,400
Speaker 1: of Trump's crisis meetings COVID nineteen briefings found between so

762
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:44,480
Speaker 1: they looked at April six to April Trump spoke for

763
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:49,359
Speaker 1: thirteen hours, which is twice as long as the next person. Dr.

764
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:53,919
Speaker 1: Deborah Brooks, who actually oversees the administration's virus response. There's

765
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:57,360
Speaker 1: a New Yorker article this week about how the like

766
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,359
Speaker 1: guide book for how to respond to one of these

767
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 1: is you don't put a politician out front. You put

768
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,800
Speaker 1: a medical expert out front, who becomes the face of

769
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: the thing and who is just very you know, sticks

770
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:15,120
Speaker 1: to five bullet points of like information that doesn't really change.

771
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 1: Trump has completely you know, fucked that the content of

772
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: his remarks during those Also, he answered questions addressed to

773
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 1: someone else on the stage more than a third of

774
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: the time, which is amazing considering that there's a good

775
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 1: chance that could be a question aimed directly at a scientist.

776
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:45,279
Speaker 1: Almost definitely unless it's like puns or something like yes. Uh.

777
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,840
Speaker 1: And then they also analyzed the thirteen hours that he

778
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 1: spoke uh and found that Uh, there were two hours

779
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 1: spent just attacking people, UH, thirty minutes on democrats, five

780
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:03,839
Speaker 1: minutes on the media, UH, twenty two minutes attacking governors UH,

781
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,720
Speaker 1: and China was his attack for twenty one minutes. About

782
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 1: forty five of the minutes were spent praising himself and

783
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 1: his administration, including three instances in which he played videos

784
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 1: that featured support for him and his administration, and uh, finally,

785
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: drumroll please, four and a half minutes were spent expressing

786
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 1: condolences for coronavirus victims. Again, these this is a crisis

787
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 1: that is killed will soon surpass Vietnam has already surpassed

788
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 1: the entirety of the Korean War. He's like, Nah, you know,

789
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:42,759
Speaker 1: let's talk about how great I am. That is so

790
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:48,080
Speaker 1: shameful it is, but he is shame less and hence

791
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 1: good at capitalist That's all you need. Can't have empathy,

792
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:54,480
Speaker 1: need tons and you can't have shame, dude, or else

793
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 1: you're gonna fucking be poor man. Isn't that so? But

794
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,239
Speaker 1: it's so danger is to have empathy in opposition with

795
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: like supposed success that I really dislike that that reality

796
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 1: that we're like coming to is that having empathy is

797
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 1: not it's almost like a weakness, you know what I mean.

798
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: I think it's a robot you need to be you

799
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:20,920
Speaker 1: know what? It depends, right, I mean, we can look

800
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:22,719
Speaker 1: at it very narrowly and say that's what you have

801
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:24,399
Speaker 1: to do. But I think at the end of the day,

802
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 1: people are people are just wired like that or they're not.

803
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 1: And I think maybe some people can develop that over time.

804
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: But sure, and I don't think if you had I

805
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 1: don't know, I mean, I presume to know your heart,

806
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:35,920
Speaker 1: but I feel like if you were caught in a

807
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,680
Speaker 1: situation where you had to do something completely fucked up,

808
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:41,360
Speaker 1: you would really take a second to think about it

809
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 1: and if it's worth it to you, worth to your

810
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 1: own stress whatever to do that because some people I

811
00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:50,319
Speaker 1: know people who literally they only know money, Like they

812
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 1: really only know money. They don't they don't have hobbies.

813
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,040
Speaker 1: They just love money and that is their life. And

814
00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:00,759
Speaker 1: I like, over time, you sort of you distance grows

815
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 1: between you because like we don't see ee to eye

816
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 1: on a lot of ship. We grew up together and

817
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 1: that's what we had. But on some level you'll see

818
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 1: people and you're like, oh wow, Like if money didn't exist,

819
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:11,879
Speaker 1: you probably wouldn't know what to do with yourself. Um.

820
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean I think most people know that

821
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:18,840
Speaker 1: in deep down, like we're built to take care of

822
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 1: one another. Uh, most people are. I think the majority are.

823
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,920
Speaker 1: That's why the like, even though there is a lot

824
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:26,680
Speaker 1: of suffering in the world, there is a lot of

825
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 1: kindness and trying to help each other out there despite

826
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 1: all the you know, yeah, external factors. I agree, you know,

827
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 1: that's that's a good thing to remember. I think I

828
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 1: think you're right that. I think deep down, especially now,

829
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:43,359
Speaker 1: we're seeing who are the people with empathy and we're

830
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 1: seeing like how important empathy is just to like, because

831
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 1: we're all going through a collective trauma, Like whether or

832
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 1: not we recognize it right now, I think it's a

833
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 1: very collective trauma. And however we process it and like

834
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:58,600
Speaker 1: however we express our empathy is is important. But do

835
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:01,920
Speaker 1: you think I have a question because I do think

836
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 1: some people are just hardwired one way or the other.

837
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 1: But do you think empathy can be learned? Like if

838
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:12,239
Speaker 1: someone has a history of not showing empathy or or

839
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 1: care for someone else, is that something that can be

840
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:17,759
Speaker 1: taught or learned or is that just like not possible.

841
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 1: I think it can be taught. Yeah, I think. I

842
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:25,479
Speaker 1: think human beings are very adaptable. I just don't think

843
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 1: I think we exist in a society that reinforces the

844
00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 1: wrong instincts at this moment. And so, uh, you know,

845
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 1: narcissistic people get to see Donald Trump become president or

846
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,440
Speaker 1: Kanye West become one of the most famous people on

847
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,759
Speaker 1: the planet. So I mean I think in you know,

848
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 1: people can be socially conditioned to do a lot of

849
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: different things. And we're not the right place to, uh,

850
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: to socially condition to anybody to to feel empathy because

851
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:02,480
Speaker 1: there's not a whole out of representations of that that

852
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:09,760
Speaker 1: we see in reality getting people positive consequences. Other than podcasters,

853
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 1: let's talk about trolls, you guys, not the Internet kind,

854
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 1: but the the ones who just had their second movie,

855
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:26,879
Speaker 1: Trolls World Tour take the box office by storm. Did

856
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 1: the first one do good? The first one did terribly? Right? No,

857
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,120
Speaker 1: I didn't do terribly. It did, yeah, and I think

858
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:37,719
Speaker 1: it was I think it was fairly successful in video

859
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 1: on demand, but it did well enough to warrant a sequel,

860
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:48,160
Speaker 1: and the yeah, and so the sequel, Uh, they were

861
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:52,640
Speaker 1: already kind of into the marketing campaign. They had already

862
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 1: launched the marketing campaign for the theatrical release of Trolls

863
00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:03,000
Speaker 1: World Tour, and then uh, COVID hit and so they decided,

864
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:09,080
Speaker 1: rather than just delaying it until Oscar season, they decided

865
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:14,280
Speaker 1: to just let this campaign ride and release it video

866
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 1: on demand. And that was three weeks ago, and it

867
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:21,600
Speaker 1: has already made a hundred million dollars in video on

868
00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 1: demand rentals and streaming, which is how how much it

869
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:29,839
Speaker 1: made over five weeks. How much the original made over

870
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 1: five weeks in theaters. So studios are looking at this

871
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 1: as evidence that we can kind of move on from theaters,

872
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:41,280
Speaker 1: which is a bummer. And I also think it's wrong

873
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 1: I think this, Yeah, I don't think that's right. Like

874
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:49,040
Speaker 1: I think this has more to do with people being

875
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,400
Speaker 1: at home with their kids and needing a break from parenting,

876
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:58,200
Speaker 1: Like I don't. I think we need to see it,

877
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,480
Speaker 1: Like in order to draw that conclusion, we would need

878
00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 1: to see a movie hit that is both not specifically

879
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 1: like brain candy designed for child brands, but also like

880
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:17,239
Speaker 1: something that is not during a time when we're all

881
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:21,440
Speaker 1: like basically prisoners to our TV. Like this is a

882
00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:25,719
Speaker 1: very specific set of circumstances. Yeah, that's interesting. I mean

883
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:28,839
Speaker 1: I wow. I remember hearing like, Okay, they're just gonna

884
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 1: go straight to V O D. But then yeah, seeing this,

885
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,520
Speaker 1: like you're saying, to your point, that makes sense in

886
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:37,280
Speaker 1: this reality. I wonder is there going to be another

887
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:40,640
Speaker 1: like every other tent pole film is like now we're

888
00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:42,880
Speaker 1: waiting for theaters to open back up, like so, I

889
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:44,879
Speaker 1: don't know if we're ever gonna I mean, I don't

890
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: know there will there be like a parallel like Adult Center,

891
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:51,560
Speaker 1: adult Focus film that will come out in quar I'm

892
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:53,879
Speaker 1: curious to see what happens if you know a tent

893
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,160
Speaker 1: pole film, like something that is a blockbuster film from

894
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 1: the summer that you know, we've been pushing everything like

895
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:00,839
Speaker 1: the New James Bond and all these other films, if

896
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,640
Speaker 1: they would if anyone would even risk putting it on

897
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:05,759
Speaker 1: v o D right now to see, like maybe we

898
00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:07,600
Speaker 1: can get like maybe this is a way to do

899
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:10,680
Speaker 1: it right now and it'll have the same effect. But

900
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just feel like trolls is like, fuck,

901
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,480
Speaker 1: it's something new my kid hasn't seen or whatever. We

902
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:18,040
Speaker 1: can all take a quick break and put like I

903
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:20,800
Speaker 1: see like your logic that you laid out why this works,

904
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 1: but curious to see with the like a big film,

905
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 1: because I don't know if I would be like funk Man,

906
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:29,200
Speaker 1: you could have read James Bone this weekend. I mean,

907
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:32,000
Speaker 1: I think you're completely right because it is very much

908
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:34,279
Speaker 1: like like you're stuck at home with your kids, Like

909
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:37,319
Speaker 1: I'm sure giving them an hour just to watch something

910
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,160
Speaker 1: an hour and a half, it's like a little break

911
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:41,799
Speaker 1: for them. And I think that's why trolls are doing

912
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,759
Speaker 1: so well. It's because so many parents are stuck with

913
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:46,560
Speaker 1: their kids right now. And I don't think it's fair,

914
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:51,360
Speaker 1: and I don't know. I think so many, like like

915
00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:54,280
Speaker 1: more adult movies, like whether it's James Bond or otherwise,

916
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,239
Speaker 1: they are waiting for the theaters to open up, but

917
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:59,120
Speaker 1: the reality is they're they're not going to open up

918
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 1: anytime soon. And so to see these recent movies, I

919
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,880
Speaker 1: think they're they're going to have to be one franchise

920
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: or one movie that like just like bites the bullet

921
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:13,320
Speaker 1: and does the first and and tries it out, like

922
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:14,920
Speaker 1: we have to have there has to be a guinea

923
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:18,520
Speaker 1: pig because we won't know. Um, So I'm curious what

924
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 1: movie that will be and how successful it will be.

925
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 1: I think I'm I think it's going to be successful

926
00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 1: only because we are consuming content like crazy right now

927
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:32,960
Speaker 1: and I can only imagine like like what happened with Contagion.

928
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:38,000
Speaker 1: Contagions like like over a decade old, right, and um

929
00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:41,800
Speaker 1: that I mean like obviously the it's a sign of

930
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,319
Speaker 1: the times and like it's very reflective what we're going through.

931
00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 1: But the rentals for that movie were like absurdly high

932
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:50,839
Speaker 1: month ago, so I think it's possible for a movie

933
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 1: to see success during this time. I also don't think

934
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 1: that means we should abandon theaters because that makes me

935
00:54:56,760 --> 00:55:00,120
Speaker 1: very depressed, um, just the thought of that, because it's

936
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:04,320
Speaker 1: like an amazing experience. But I am I'm I'm curious

937
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,520
Speaker 1: to see what movie will be the first attempt. It's

938
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:10,360
Speaker 1: gonna take a while, like they're gonna have to realize fuck,

939
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:13,440
Speaker 1: like we can't. We can't keep sitting on this James

940
00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:16,760
Speaker 1: Bond or whatever film for another eight months or whatever.

941
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:19,920
Speaker 1: And I'm sure out of desperation or maybe planning, that

942
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:22,399
Speaker 1: film will come out and we'll see. But I don't

943
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:23,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if I it would have to be

944
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:28,360
Speaker 1: something significant, like Okay, I'll check out that Chris Nolan film,

945
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 1: like I'll rent that. But I could only think of

946
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,960
Speaker 1: like maybe four films coming out that I'll be like, yeah, okay, man,

947
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:36,440
Speaker 1: that's a v o D. That's a v o D

948
00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:42,040
Speaker 1: one right there. Yeah. But inversely, inversely, maybe the anticipation,

949
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 1: maybe maybe studios are being like, well, by the time

950
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 1: this comes out, people are going to be so ready

951
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,560
Speaker 1: for this that the lines will be crazy. The movie

952
00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:52,799
Speaker 1: that's going to be so popular in theaters or whatever.

953
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:56,040
Speaker 1: So I don't know, I'm not going to be such

954
00:55:56,080 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 1: a like overabundance of like big temp pole movies just

955
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:05,800
Speaker 1: hitting theaters all at the same time. I feel like, exactly,

956
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:08,240
Speaker 1: and then yeah, maybe our bars solo are so desperate.

957
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 1: I'm like, jack Man, you want to camp out in

958
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 1: line for that James Bond movie? Exactly? Yes, I always

959
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 1: how I greet the release of any James Bond movie.

960
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 1: I mean the Wall Street Journal obviously putting things in

961
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:30,880
Speaker 1: the you know, in the language, or reviewing the thing

962
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,920
Speaker 1: from the perspective of the studios. UH made the point

963
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: that studios have debated movie theaters over their requirement to

964
00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:43,840
Speaker 1: show a movie exclusively for more than two months before

965
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:48,279
Speaker 1: screening at home, and they kind of said that they

966
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:53,320
Speaker 1: they had this debate while watching Netflix dominate at home entertainment.

967
00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 1: So like, if they can get theaters to let them

968
00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:00,200
Speaker 1: release movies on demand at the same time that the

969
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:03,880
Speaker 1: release in theaters, they feel like they might have a

970
00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:09,160
Speaker 1: have a shot at competing with Netflix, which I'm all

971
00:57:09,239 --> 00:57:13,279
Speaker 1: for finding like an alternative to Netflix, because I'm sure

972
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:19,720
Speaker 1: Netflix will eventually use their massive market dominating power to

973
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 1: make things shittier. Yeah, and then eventually get like government

974
00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,560
Speaker 1: funds because they're like, we're too big to fail, guys.

975
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 1: Netflix can't go down. Yeah, yeah, well, Sharen, it has

976
00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 1: been a pleasure as always having you. Where can people

Speaker 1: Twitter at shio hero six six six. I had a

982
00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,040
Speaker 1: film screen I mean I had my first experience with

983
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 1: like a virtual film festival last week, so that was interesting.

984
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:03,640
Speaker 1: Or even this weekend, I had a film that got

985
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:06,320
Speaker 1: into this festival in Paris and they had like an

986
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:10,840
Speaker 1: online screening thing, um, which was I mean it was,

987
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:18,480
Speaker 1: but it was strange because it wasn't Yeah, yeah, I

988
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:20,320
Speaker 1: don't know, so that was strange. But if you guys

989
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,000

Speaker 1: the other festivals are also going to be virtual, so

992
00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:30,480
Speaker 1: I figure what's the point? Um? But yeah, me and

993
00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:32,800
Speaker 1: and I have a podcast Ethnically Ambiguous. If you guys

994
00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:35,320
Speaker 1: don't know, listen to us. We talked to people every

995
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:41,000
Speaker 1: week and it's fun and uh, go ahead, yeah, Jack,

996
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:45,440
Speaker 1: is there is there a tweet you've been enjoying. Yeah,

997
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:48,360
Speaker 1: I had a couple, but I think I narrowed it

998
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 1: down to one that really resonated with me. It was

999
00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:59,120
Speaker 1: Andrew ma Sean hilarious. Follow him on Twitter. He's really funny.

1000
00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:03,240
Speaker 1: But this tweet is truly nothing more embarrassing than accidentally

1001
00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 1: clicking on a live stream. And I really agree with

1002
00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:12,280
Speaker 1: that because I hate all these live streams so much,

1003
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:15,640
Speaker 1: and sometimes I'll just be all my phone scrolling and

1004
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 1: I'll just like pop in and it would say it's

1005
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:20,840
Speaker 1: it'll be like three people and I'm one of them,

1006
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:23,080
Speaker 1: and then I'm just there and I have to I

1007
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:25,800
Speaker 1: don't know whatever. So that's my tweet. Truly, nothing more

1008
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:31,880
Speaker 1: embarrassing than accidentally clicking on a live stream. Especially now, Miles,

1009
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:35,880
Speaker 1: where can people find you? What's tweet you've been enjoying? Twitter? Instagram,

Speaker 1: PlayStation Network, Miles of Gray. Also my other show for

1011
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:44,760
Speaker 1: Fiance talking about ninety day Fiance. Um. Some tweets that

1012
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:49,880
Speaker 1: I like, well, well, well, uh, couple from Reductress first,

1013
00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,040
Speaker 1: just this woman standing by a toilet with like a

1014
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: just nervous look on her face and it says now

1015
00:59:55,680 --> 01:00:02,760
Speaker 1: more than ever, toilet must not clog. Um and uh

1016
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:05,800
Speaker 1: and then another one from at Laura E. Parker It says,

1017
01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,960
Speaker 1: some of my best writing has been wasted on sexs too.

1018
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:15,120
Speaker 1: Men whose best reply was is that so? Oh my god?

1019
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 1: Is that So it's such a specific type of that,

1020
01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:31,400
Speaker 1: So like that's their idea of sophistication, yeah, or like

1021
01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:36,600
Speaker 1: being cheeky about it and she's like, you know it.

1022
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 1: Rock and Roll Photos tweeted I hate love crafty and horror.

1023
01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:44,160
Speaker 1: It always reminds me of my dad who killed himself

Speaker 1: after looking at an impossible triangle. You can find me

1032
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:13,160
Speaker 1: Gonna Be? Today? I was just listening to the Childish

1033
01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:18,520
Speaker 1: Gambino album UM and the song Time with Arianna Grinde

1034
01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:20,800
Speaker 1: stuck out to me because it almost sounded like if

1035
01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:24,720
Speaker 1: Kanye like was still doing what he used to do well.

1036
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:28,920
Speaker 1: This song has very similar vibes for the auto tune

1037
01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:32,080
Speaker 1: uh and they's just like this keyboard synth line that

1038
01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:36,840
Speaker 1: is straight out of the Easy Melody book. But it's

1039
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:38,919
Speaker 1: just a good song and like I don't know, how's

1040
01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:41,840
Speaker 1: good energy. So this is time childish Gambio all right.
