25
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: into contact with some of these ladies. If I had

26
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: to guess, Miles, you know, now that I have a platform,

27
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 1: I like also assuming that they all listen to this,

28
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: right exactly. That's my other thing is I'm hoping in

29
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: my in my fantasy world, they all see how well

30
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: I'm doing, and now they're like, oh, I guess he

31
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: deserves his He's back every every successful joke, they're like, damn, yeah,

32
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: that one get away. Barbara. What's something that you have

33
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: searched in the not too distant past that is revealing

34
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: about who you are as a human being? Oh? Um,

35
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: I searched will feral plastic surgery. Wait what, well I

36
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: think he's had it? Well, I'm I feel like, either

37
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: I assume more people have had it than they've had

38
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: or I just have a better eye for it. But

39
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: his eyes look real tight. Daddy, he's got those tight?

40
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: Is really Daddy's home to or whatever you're saying the

41
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: boasters or the just in general. When I see him

42
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: on screen now, I'm like, I think something's happened. It's

43
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: not not that I begrudge him for doing it, but

44
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: it's just I think it's a little harder to be

45
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: funny when you've gotten you know, some work done right

46
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: as far as your expressions. But that was something I

47
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: realized I searched recently, So I think that's that's interesting.

48
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: This is two days in a row that we've been

49
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: talking about Daddy's home to the cultural event. Yeah, this

50
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 1: guys check it out. Not we're not paid by them,

51
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: big not. Yeah. What's something you think is overrated? Barbara? Um,

52
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: I think that Twitter giving characters. I guess nobody likes that,

53
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: so as it count is overrated. I personally think it's

54
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: a terrible idea. Yeah, I don't think I've not seen

55
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: one supportive tweet about it. Right, It's at least overrated

56
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: in the Twitter offices because they like did a slow

57
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 1: rollout and everyone was like, no, why are you doing this?

58
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: This is pointless? And then they gave it to every Yeah.

59
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: Why I don't understand why. It's like, there are the

60
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: platform is already dying, why would you further these are

61
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: like the final battle of of Twitter. It's just I mean,

62
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: as somebody who you know writes jokes, it's good for

63
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: me to be economical with words and to force myself

64
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: to do that. And we don't need to see Twitter

65
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: is already a garbage, you know place. I don't need

66
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: to see more from people. What is something you believe

67
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: to be under created? Um underrated? I think is wearing

68
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 1: wigs all the time. As far as we're talking, you

69
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: guys are talking about wigs off of like I think

70
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: everyone Well, I just I wore a blond one on Halloween,

71
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: and I was like, why can't I just do this

72
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: and not be weird? But I think it is. It

73
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 1: would be weird if I just did that way. Why

74
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: do you think it's because people would act like it

75
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: was you know people, you're you're rocking your wig for you,

76
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: but I addressed in costume every day. People will be like,

77
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: what is wrong? That's different right now We're say you're

78
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: talking about whole different thing. Now, Hey, wigs are cool

79
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: if you want to rock a wig, rock a wig.

80
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of people do, like, you know,

81
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: as part of their life. But I think like changing

82
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: it every day would be intense. You know that. I

83
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: think it would be cool. I think I think women

84
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,839
Speaker 1: can pull it off more than men. I think men

85
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: trying to rock wigs every day. Guys are rocking What

86
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: about beard wigs? What if you would you guys as

87
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 1: somebody who had to at cracked like evaluate tons and

88
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: tons of you know, amateur comedy sketch videos Like I

89
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 1: have a huge aversion to false mustaches and fake beards

90
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: because they're all over the place. But that's because the

91
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: fake beard game is not where it needs to be,

92
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like wigs, Now you're like,

93
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 1: oh wow, I love her head of exactly if it

94
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 1: looked real. Not if it looked exactly you don't want

95
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: to look like that like part in Jackass, when like

96
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: they just glued a bunch of pubes to his face,

97
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 1: like you want something and look at someone who has

98
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: a lot of trouble growing facial hair. Shout out to

99
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: natural pube face situation. Would love to just know what

100
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: a real beard felt like, you know, and just exactly

101
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: feels terrible? Does it? Yeah, it looks like it was.

102
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 1: It's like wearing a sweater on your face. It's not

103
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 1: that cool. I love them because I love like false masculinity,

104
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: something that makes it so I'm into them. You show

105
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 1: up into guys like, Hey, just so you know, I

106
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: don't want to mislead you. This beard is fake because

107
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: I'm honest, I'm gentlemen. Yeah, exactly honest. See it all costs.

108
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 1: It is the great hyder of a weak chin. And

109
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: as Gavin McGinnis knows, Uh, all right, let's get into format.

110
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: Guys were trying to take a sample of the ideas

111
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: that are out there changing the world, whether we're looking

112
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 1: or not. There's this huge tangle of ideas and assumptions

113
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: and collected you know, assumed wisdom and beliefs that are

114
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: out there kind of you know, there's sort of a

115
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: gravitational pool that collective and assumed wisdom has on our

116
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: daily lives. We talked about politics, the president, news, but

117
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 1: we also talk about movies and supermarket tabloids. Uh. Mostly

118
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,559
Speaker 1: we talked about Daddy's Home to uh in at least

119
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: this week we can't get on. But what one thing

120
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: we like to talk about is, because movies have such

121
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: a huge impact on this big, collective, gravitational tangle of ideas,

122
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,919
Speaker 1: we like to bust movie myths, and we like to

123
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: specifically ask our guests, um, just based on their own

124
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: experience or just you know, uh what what they've learned

125
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: in their life. Are there any media myths out there

126
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: that you I mean, I told you that this one

127
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: isn't a movie one. Yeah, if you see some mythical

128
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: ship happening out there, just tear it down. I think

129
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: the Okay, I saw I saw Bruno Mars perform last

130
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: night at the Forum, and I believe that, first of all,

131
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: good show or not good show, great show, incredible show.

132
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: I don't think he's ever had sex, and that's the

133
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: myth I would like to bust right now. How do

134
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: you tell that from a performance? Well, just I mean

135
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: he's incredible performer. Is something about performance, But like the

136
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: way he talks about sex and his songs is not

137
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: I think it's like Tommy Wizzo as far as like

138
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: this is what I think romances, roses and red dresses

139
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: and chocolate and the way that Bruno Mars talks about sexy,

140
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: He's like champagne, strawberries, sex by the fireplace, and who like,

141
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: no one has sex like that. That's not fancy. Real

142
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: people like romance novel I think he's like red Romance

143
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: because he's other songs like Versace on the Floor, What

144
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: the fun. There are certain people there's never like people

145
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 1: who are obsessed with like relating Champagne to sex. I

146
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: heard Jennifer Lopez once say, and I don't know why

147
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: Christian named. I heard her once say great sex is

148
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: like taking a bath in Champagne, and I was like,

149
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: that sounds so it's like weirdly uncomfortable. It makes you

150
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: sticky all over. OK, So you just think I just

151
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: get the feeling that he is an entire persona built

152
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: on saying what he thinks women want to hear, especially,

153
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: but it is that romance novel version of sex and stuff. Also,

154
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: he has a song about like I don't know if

155
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: you guys have heard the Gorilla song, but it's it's

156
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: like it goes like you and me baby making love

157
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: like gorillas crazy song. Yeah, But and he talks about

158
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 1: like bang bang on your chest like a gorilla would do.

159
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: But I'm like, well, if you're having actually having sex

160
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: like a guerrilla, you'd be doing it doggy style anyway.

161
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: That's my theory. So I guess so's the lyrics aren't

162
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: like realistic, like hey, home and already had like a

163
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: boner in bed and like then I'm like, what's up?

164
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: And then you were like, no, I'm tired, it's time

165
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 1: for a wig over work, and then you forget it.

166
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: I guess maybe that's not sexy thing that people want

167
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: to describing a dysfunctional relationship. Yeah, well, who's an artist

168
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: who describes sex in a realistic way? I think the

169
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: Weekend who I also saw it the form, So it's

170
00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:59,839
Speaker 1: like if you looked at the two of them for

171
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 1: to each other, the Weekend definitely is actually having sex,

172
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: and Bruno's presenting this fake kind of you know, glossy versions,

173
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: like the two kids in high school, Like one kid

174
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: who's like, yeah, I've had sex, but with my girlfriend.

175
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: She lives in Texas and you'll never meet her, and

176
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: then we do it like crazy, and then the other

177
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 1: kids just like smoking a cigarettes, like that's not how

178
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 1: you fuck exactly that I got a lie to my

179
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 1: girl every night because I'm with another one anyway, I'm apple. Yeah,

180
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 1: that sounds right. All right, let's get into our first story. Um,

181
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: the theme of today's episode is going to be that

182
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 1: it is uh national funk. The rich and powerful day

183
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: it would appear only day. They only get a day, yeah, um,

184
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: because we were like getting all these notifications on our

185
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: phones about different people getting busted for their Shenanigan ry. Um.

186
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 1: But we're gonna start out with talking about just the

187
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: dossier because that's something that's been the news for the

188
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: past week or so. And I think when the dossier

189
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: hits people's brains, it just immediately goes ppe tape like

190
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: they're just like dossier and they don't really know think

191
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: too deeply about what else it is. Because that was

192
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 1: the best part of it, right, It's like the fun

193
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: part of it. And at the time too, was like

194
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: near the inauguration and then BuzzFeed puts it out and

195
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: then you're like, oh my god, yes Trump right, and

196
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: you know, we we have no reason to believe or

197
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: disbelieve that specific part of it. But we wanted to

198
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: take a look, like actually look into the intelligence in

199
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 1: the dossier. We had our writer Sam Rudeman rude Boy

200
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: look into what the sort of general opinion and the

201
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,959
Speaker 1: intelligence community is about, uh, all the information in the

202
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 1: dossie and just what's in there in general, So the

203
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: things that we know to be true the things that

204
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: they had right before they had any information on those things,

205
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 1: or before we had any information on those Those things

206
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: are what they knew about the emails being hacked, Democratic

207
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: emails being hacked, or at least emails regarding Hillary Clinton

208
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: were available. That was in the document. Let's see that

209
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: there was also the other thing of like that Russia

210
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 1: has an extensive program aimed at hacking foreign adversaries, and

211
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: that was that was very clearly true. Um, let's see

212
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: there was another thing that claimed that like Victor Yanukovic

213
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: told Putin that he could pay Paul Manaford under the

214
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: table and that it would be untraceable. And then there

215
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: it turns out that you know, there were payments that

216
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: were made to Manafort. Uh that basically led to his

217
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: outst from the campaign. Right. So basically the Manafort indictment

218
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: that just came out, a lot of the details in

219
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: that and the charges against Manafort seemed to line up

220
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 1: with what's been in this dossier for the past like

221
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: a year, yeah, exactly, and even with and then then

222
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: recently to Carter Page, recently his testimony came out, uh,

223
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: and there are a lot of things that went down

224
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: in that testimony. Aside from him just seeming like a

225
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 1: crazy person who's like so in over his head and

226
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 1: it's like bad scandal that there were a few things

227
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: that actually did line up with the doc, Like the

228
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: other day his uh testimony, right, Carter page, Yeah, I

229
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: think it happened a week or two ago. Yeah, and

230
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: it was finally actually made public this week. So we're like, so, Carter,

231
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: are you sure you don't want a lawyer here. He's like, nah,

232
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 1: you need a lawyer. I don't need a lawyer. I'm

233
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: a Scholar's kind of like the gist of what he

234
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 1: said in that campaign. So yes, I think the dossier

235
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 1: like when you think about it, it's it's a lot

236
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: of raw intelligence that was gathered by the Steel guy

237
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: who was like a farmer m I six agent and

238
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 1: like expert in Russia all things Russia. So it's all

239
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: raw intelligence and that's on like honestly, the onus is

240
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: on the intelligence community to then like actually verify a

241
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: lot of these claims. But it gives you a really

242
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: good idea of like what spies are talking about. Like

243
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: he's like you know, because he goes around talk to

244
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: other people in tell like, hey, what have you heard

245
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 1: what have you heard? Right? And the stuff that he

246
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 1: feels is legitimate enough, he'll put in here to just

247
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: sort of be like, this is the word on the street.

248
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 1: There's a snapshot of spy like Twitter at that point exactly,

249
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:22,959
Speaker 1: and he's like, this is what's going on. Look, I'm

250
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: not I'm not telling you this is absolute truth, but

251
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 1: this is what's going on what people have heard. Yeah,

252
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: and we've seen sort of time and time again that

253
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: a lot of things have been corroborated. But then there

254
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: are also mistakes in there, like there's like misspellings and

255
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: like talking about different like wrongly identifying companies or people

256
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: call the Russian company the wrong thing. I mean, I

257
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 1: think it's too bad. It's like you would think they

258
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: would put that through a spell check first, but I guess.

259
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,719
Speaker 1: And also like when you look at the documents like

260
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 1: mad messi's like a different fonts and ship never turned

261
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,679
Speaker 1: into paper like the other thing it did. Uh. So

262
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: usually a intelligence report like this will have a grade

263
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: next to each piece of intelligence of like how strongly

264
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: like on the truth meter. In truth meter, they use truthiness,

265
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: I think, uh, And this doesn't have any of that.

266
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: It's just like kind of put the facts out there

267
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,199
Speaker 1: and doesn't really give context for like how good they

268
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,959
Speaker 1: believe the sourcing is on that um yeah, which is

269
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: why it gives like Republicans, it's just sort of flawed

270
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: enough that Republicans say this is total trash, like this

271
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: is all you know, supernatural Chicano and then they can

272
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: take it all right. And then on the Democrats side,

273
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: then they're looking at it and saying like, well, we're

274
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: starting to back up a lot of these things, like

275
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: not anything, but it gives you, it gives it gives

276
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: us an interesting overarching picture of just quite how this

277
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: cooperation between the Trump campaign and Russia might have gone down.

278
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: Another thing to mention too, is like the Darcy did

279
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: mention that Russia had been cultivating Trump for years. That's

280
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: also kind of vague because like we don't quite know

281
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 1: like how that went down, I mean aside from like

282
00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: numerous real estate deals. So sure, maybe in at sense

283
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: they were cultivating, but never like, hey, come come take

284
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: you know, spy class over here, so we you know,

285
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: can make march you out there as an agent of this. Yeah,

286
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: like we've got this pe tape on you. You're going

287
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: to run for right, But clearly whatever Trump is does

288
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: not every want to say a bad thing about Russian

289
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: And I think that's what makes it all look even worse, right,

290
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, the way they cultivate you would not be

291
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 1: here it come take this Russia how to spy Russia

292
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 1: style class. They would just sort of do things for

293
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: you and then maybe like do bad things with you,

294
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: and then they're like, you know, we can blackmail them, right,

295
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: and then like, hey, guess what, we can turn the

296
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: heat up on you. Yeah. And I think on both

297
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: sides there's been this argument about like, well, this was

298
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: paid for by the Clinton campaign. Uh, you know, I

299
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: think Democrats are saying that it was you know, even

300
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: if it was, which it was partially paid for by

301
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: the Clinton campaign, it's just opposition research. And even when

302
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: it was first reported, so this is this was treated

303
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: like a huge bombs a couple of weeks ago when

304
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: it came out that the d n C and the

305
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: Clinton campaign paid for uh, some of the research being

306
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: done by Steele. So when it was first reported by

307
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: mother Jones a week before the election and published by BuzzFeed,

308
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: they specifically said that it was paid for by the

309
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: d n C and the Clinton campaign as well as

310
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: before that it was paid for by a company that

311
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: was working for one of Trump's Republican opponents. So this

312
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: story that like sort of broke like a couple of

313
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: weeks ago, was in the very first story about the dossia.

314
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: But again, it gave another reason for uh, you know,

315
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: the GOP and Trump supporters to kind of distract from

316
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 1: the numerous other things that are going on, just to

317
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: bring up, you know, their favorite boogey woman Hillary and

318
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: just to illustrate like a detail that shows how far

319
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: apart the different sides are. So uh, Trump recently, I think,

320
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: sent Mike Pompey, the director of the CIA, to meet

321
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 1: with a guy, right, Bill Binny. Yeah, he's like a

322
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 1: former n S a code breaker, um, and he believes

323
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: that Russia did no hacking. He's the one person in

324
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: the intelligence community. He's basically at this point a uh,

325
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: you know, glorified conspiracy theorist, because nobody in the entire

326
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 1: you know, law enforcement community or intelligence community believes that

327
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:31,440
Speaker 1: Russia did no hacking. His theory is that it was

328
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,640
Speaker 1: like an inside job by the Democrats to set up Russia.

329
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 1: So of course Trump loves that, like, go talk to

330
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: that guy, because I think in an interview, Bill Binny

331
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: said something like, yeah, he's on the search for factual evidence,

332
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 1: Like okay, like as if you you you're the one

333
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: who holds the factual evidence regarding this whole Russia hacking thing. Right,

334
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 1: So Benny does have a background in the intelligence community

335
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,880
Speaker 1: in that he left the n s A in two thousand,

336
00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 1: so you know, been seventeen years since he's Nick was

337
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: no since then, but he's definitely got his one and

338
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 1: and again you can just tell like where this lies too,

339
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: because you look at him like RT and like sput Nick,

340
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, man, Bill Binny's a whistle blower hero,

341
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 1: Why is the mainstream media trying to smear him? Well,

342
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 1: he has an opinion that is not in line with

343
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: like the facts. So yeah, and it's a little concerning

344
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: that art that that the head of the CIA is

345
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: going to go meet with somebody like that, But again,

346
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: Mike Pompeo loves Trump, so yeah. And the only other

347
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: thing we haven't covered is that that the report gets

348
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: wrong is that they said that Michael Cohen, Trump's lawyer,

349
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 1: was in Prague doing some shady thing. And uh, if

350
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 1: you look at Cohen's uh passports, he was only or

351
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: he was only in Europe last year to go to

352
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: Italy with his family, and like his passports corroborate that.

353
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,360
Speaker 1: And the week they say he was doing the shady thing,

354
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: he was actually visiting his son in college in southern California. Uh.

355
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: And I was on that trip with him, so I

356
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: can hung out the doors for them. Yeah for sure. Yeah,

357
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 1: Cohn's a good guy. Uh No, he's actually a psycho.

358
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 1: He's he's amazing. But people should check out a a

359
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 1: highlight reel of Michael Cohen's appearances on like CNN. It's

360
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,679
Speaker 1: he's pretty amazing. Uh but all right, So that's what

361
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 1: the Steel Dossier is. When you hear about it, you

362
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 1: don't have to picture Trump watching prostitutes p on the

363
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 1: Obama's bed. You can think about these things instead. Um,

364
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 1: it's up to you to get how outraged or is

365
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 1: excited about it as you want, because it's there's enough

366
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: to say that there's a lot of truth in it,

367
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 1: and there's not to say that there's flaws in it.

368
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: But it seems like we're seeing more truth come out

369
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,239
Speaker 1: of it than any write A lot of a lot

370
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 1: of the details are being corroborated. Um, all right, we're

448
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,880

Speaker 1: sort of bubbling underneath the surface, and this movie is

458
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,919
Speaker 1: like really fucked up the way that. Uh so, not

459
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 1: only he talks about sort of the he addresses the

460
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 1: Woody Allen you know, sexual misconduct because in his daughter

461
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: is dating character played by John Malkovitch, who's clear he's

462
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: supposed to be like a Woody Allen Roman Polansky type tour.

463
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: And then but there's also a character who corners women

464
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: in a room and masturbates in front of them right there,

465
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,120
Speaker 1: actually is I didn't know that. Yeah, I believe they're

466
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: just it's not him. But one there is a scene

467
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 1: where a male character does what he's being accused of,

468
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: um right, so he gets a corner of the audience

469
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: and make them watch that exactly so he basically snitched

470
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: on himself in his own phone. That makes so much

471
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: sense for him. I feel like, I feel like he's

472
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: going to be the type of person who's like I'm

473
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: gonna get ahead of this and make it part of

474
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: my art. Now, you know, it's just weird. I mean, look,

475
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: as I read through this, there was another uh. Abby

476
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: Shackner said in two thousand three, she called Louisy Kay

477
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 1: to invite him to one of her shows, and during

478
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: the phone conversation, she said she could hear him masturbating

479
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: as they spoke. Oh weird. Uh. And then another comedian,

480
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 1: Rebecca Corey, said that while she was appearing with Louisy

481
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: Canna television pilot in two thousand and five, he asked

482
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: if he could masturbate in front of her. She declined, So, yeah,

483
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 1: that seems like the rumors are real. Yea, And yeah,

484
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 1: there goes another one. Yes, I guess. So the weird

485
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: thing is this is a thing that has been talked

486
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,679
Speaker 1: about a lot, and we just never got to a

487
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 1: point where enough people came out to actually confirm a

488
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 1: lot of these like terrible things. And yeah, and now

489
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: I've given this climate again, Like there, yo, Like, if

490
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 1: you're sucking around and you're you're being a sexual predator,

491
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 1: this is not the error for you right now. I mean,

492
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: it's yeah, it's a I'm really happy it's happening. I

493
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 1: mean obviously that it didn't happen, but you know that

494
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: guys aren't gonna be able to get away with it anymore.

495
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 1: It's huge. It's gonna be a huge change for women

496
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: in entertainment, and uh, I'm really interested to see the way,

497
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 1: like we said, how it's going to keep going. This

498
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: is just the beginning, obviously, but to be believed after

499
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: not to know, to have the women know that they

500
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 1: could come forward and be believed is so huge, and uh,

501
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 1: I'm I'm really interested to see what goes down. Yeah,

502
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: I mean, so just to kind of explicitly talk about

503
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: like there are female comics who have been warned against

504
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 1: like talking about this right like that and been told

505
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 1: like that will ruin your career. I think we heard

506
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:49,120
Speaker 1: from a woman, a friend of a friend who was like,

507
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,919
Speaker 1: you know that she was talking about this after it

508
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 1: happened to her, and uh, someone came up and was like, look,

509
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: if you keep telling the story, it's going to ruin

510
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 1: your career, not his, um well, because yeah, who wants

511
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: to also be have your entire career associated with that?

512
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's something yeah, you don't want to

513
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: even talk about, so I think actually in the film

514
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: there's a character pretends to masturbate at length in front

515
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,479
Speaker 1: of other people. Maybe it was just faking it then, right,

516
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 1: not actually, but yeah, as far as like the Kevin

517
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: Spacey stuff goes, so this is Mike So so c

518
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: g I is obviously very powerful. Now if they replaced him,

519
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 1: what it would happen if like something happened where they

520
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 1: replaced Kevin Spacey with a c g I version of

521
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: Kevin Spacey? Does that count because it's like, well, the

522
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: c g I robot didn't do anything right, It's still like,

523
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't want to put anyone through looking

524
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: at him after knowing all the ship that he did.

525
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 1: But you know where is that line? Who knows? Yeah,

526
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 1: I mean look, yeah cg or not, bro, Sorry, you

527
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: gotta go. They replaced him by like a jar Jar

528
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 1: Banks character, right, that's completely enough. Yeah, I mean, but

529
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: that's also traumatic. So, I mean, we wanted to also

530
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: connect this to the larger trend of the Paradise Papers,

531
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: which is this trove of millions of millions of documents

532
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 1: that show evidence of how huge multinational corporations are hiding

533
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 1: their money from governments. So they don't have to pay

534
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 1: taxes as well as individuals. It's not just multinational corporations. Madonna,

535
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 1: I guess is in there the royal family, Uh, Wilbur

536
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 1: Ross who is Secretary of Commerce and uh, you know,

537
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 1: huge wealthy Republican donor. Uh. These papers actually connect him

538
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 1: to a shipping company that does business with Putin. UH.

539
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 1: And a lot of these papers, like the Panama papers

540
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: and UH was the first batch of documents that's similar

541
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 1: to this. Uh, these Paradise papers, A lot of them

542
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 1: show a lot of net works of shady money that

543
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: all traces back to Putin. Because, as we've discussed on

544
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: the podcast before, Putin is the richest guy in the world.

545
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: He just has all this money that he hides in

546
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: the people around him. So like he has a friend

547
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: who is a classical musician who has like two billion

548
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: dollars uh, because you know, Putin is hiding his money

549
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 1: with him. But UM, it's pretty astounding. I mean, so

550
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 1: Apple has accumulated more than a hundred and twenty eight

551
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 1: billion dollars in profits offshore and probably much more that

552
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 1: is completely untaxed by the US. UM. And you know,

553
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: tax strategies like the ones I'm kind of pulling quotes

554
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: here from a New York Times article on this. UH

555
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 1: tax strategies like the ones Apple used, as well as Amazon,

556
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: Google and Starbucks cost the governments around the world as

557
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 1: much as two forty billion dollars a year in lost revenue,

558
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 1: accord to a two thousand fifteen estimate by UH, the

559
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. And it would seem

560
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: like that's probably an underestimation we're learning now. UM. And

561
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: so this is I feel like why it should matter

562
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: to you know, us as American citizens, and you know,

563
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: anybody who lives in a country that's government is losing

564
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 1: out on tax revenue because of these tax shelters, Because

565
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 1: this is lost revenue that could be going towards things

566
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 1: like infrastructure and schools. UH. In America, the GOP the

567
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: Republicans love to talk about cutting spending. UH, they actually

568
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: love to cut spending on schools and infrastructure. In the

569
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: way those things are funded are with taxes. Instead of

570
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: being funded by billions of dollars of taxes that Apple

571
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 1: should be paying, they're being funded by UH taxes that

572
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: come out of our paychecks and purchases and properties. UM.

573
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: So I don't know the government has to get that

574
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: money somewhere, and they're not getting it from these huge

575
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 1: corporations essentially, and it's and it's absurd to because you

576
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: look at things like this tax plan the GOP is

577
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: trying to push and saying like, oh yeah, like if

578
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 1: we give if we give these corporations more tax breaks,

579
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: that'll mean it's better for you, when we all know

580
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: that's bullshit, that's not going to happen, right, So the

581
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: rationale for the Republican like they want to redesign the

582
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 1: taxes so that corporations are only tax instead of thirty percent, right,

583
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 1: And by lowering it, they're saying then they'll actually pay

584
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: taxes instead of hiding the money. But why would they

585
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: do that because they're not paying anything close to they

586
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: have all these laws, So like that's clear. The ability

587
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: for companies to hide all of their money in these

588
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 1: different ways is the thing probably that needs to be

589
00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: addressed and not like making it easier on corporates. But

590
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 1: that's not to say that in this GOP tax plan,

591
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: like you know, there is a plan to you know,

592
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 1: lure some of this cash back state side through the

593
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: repatriation tax, which they want to you know, tax this money,

594
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: that's their profits that are coming back by like ten

595
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 1: percent or less. And that's the hope is that once

596
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,239
Speaker 1: this money is back in the States, you know, they

597
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: can use this to you know, reinvested in their business.

598
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: But it seems like, you know, last time they did this,

599
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: I think in two thousand four, a lot of companies

600
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: just bought back their own stock. So it's you know,

601
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: a lot of experts don't think that it will actually

602
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 1: benefit the public. But again, if you believe in the

603
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 1: idea that these corporations are are very kind and uh,

604
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 1: you know, loving people, that they'll actually use this money

605
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: and invest it back in the community. Who knows. And

606
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 1: I feel like there's an underrated way this impact society also,

607
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: and the fact that like this is a huge industry,

608
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 1: Like some of the smartest and most talented people that

609
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 1: I know, like work in industries where they spend most

610
00:33:56,600 --> 00:34:00,360
Speaker 1: of their time and energy like doing bullshit like this,

611
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 1: like hiding people's money or moving people's money around. And

612
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 1: I feel like, I don't know, it's it's a shame.

613
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 1: That's how you get rich in America is not by

614
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 1: creating anything of value, but like finding ways to hide

615
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 1: money for huge corporations or you know, finding tricks with

616
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: like hedge funds and markets to yeah, to make money

617
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,359
Speaker 1: for people who already have a lot of money, um

618
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: and the bag. Right, well, we wonder why you know,

619
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 1: there has been a huge upswelling of like populism around

620
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 1: the world, right yeah. You know, before Trump even started

621
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 1: his run in the two thousand and sixteen election, there

622
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 1: were studies that said America is ripe for a populist

623
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 1: outsider to come in and you know, wreck shit, and like,

624
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: you know, we got the wrong fucking one. Well, you know,

625
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 1: the Democrats had Bernie you know, do a have a

626
00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 1: huge unexpected uh impact on primaries, and the Republicans had Trump,

627
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,240
Speaker 1: who came in as an outsider, and you know, upset

628
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 1: a bunch of people. And so I don't know, it's uh,

629
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: I feel like we are a lot of you know,

630
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: the anger, even on the left is directed towards like

631
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 1: these poor people and like people in the middle of

632
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 1: the country being like, you know, not knowing that Trump

633
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 1: is bad for them. But I mean there are people

634
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 1: who are being victimized, just like everybody else, by these

635
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: massive you know, elite who you know, there's this entire

636
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:40,799
Speaker 1: societal apparatus that has been set up to keep rich

637
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: people rich and poor people poor, and like, you know,

638
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:49,479
Speaker 1: they this is where the Illuminati conspiracy theory comes from.

639
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: It's like a fictional explanation for something that's really happening.

640
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 1: Rich people are spending all their time and talent and

641
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: education finding tricks to keep rich people rich and poor

642
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 1: people poor. Is there anything that's going to change that.

643
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't even know if that's possible to

644
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 1: stop now, I guess. I mean, this is all kind

645
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 1: of a part of a bigger discussion rights, like are

646
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,879
Speaker 1: we kind of seeing a change? Right? So, now rich

647
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 1: and powerful predator men are having to answer for their crimes.

648
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 1: The tax plan is so unpopular because people are trying

649
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 1: to realize, you know, the giving tax breaks to the

650
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 1: wealth he is and not going to help us. And

651
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: then the Paradise Papers is further demonstrating that, like, look

652
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,400
Speaker 1: at what we're dealing with here. And yeah, would be

653
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 1: some of the elections that happened on Tuesday. I mean,

654
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 1: you're like in Virginia, they they they crushed it, like

655
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 1: the Democrats crushed it. Liberal liberal politicians made it very

656
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:42,720
Speaker 1: clear that this is somewhat of a rebuke on Trump.

657
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: And you have from the first trans woman being elected

658
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 1: into the state legislature to uh, you know, like the

659
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,160
Speaker 1: first black mayor in Montana who's a Liberian immigrant, like

660
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:56,839
Speaker 1: you're seeing. I mean again, you can't just say from

661
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 1: these elections that we're going to see a complete change

662
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: in the mid term or anything like that, but it's

663
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 1: a very good indication that there is some kind of momentum. Yeah.

664
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: And also you can look at that there are you know,

665
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:15,839
Speaker 1: pulling and demographic data that says that millennials are like

666
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 1: wildly completely the most socialist generation in a long time.

667
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 1: And I think that's probably because they are the first

668
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: generation that has had access to all of the information

669
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 1: like for their entire lives, and so they're kind of

670
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: able to see through a lot of this bullshit and

671
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 1: you know, able to see that, uh, happiness does not

672
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 1: come from you know, collecting and accumulating more and more

673
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 1: and more and more money. It comes from uh you

674
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 1: know or in fact, like doing that collecting more and

675
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 1: more and more money just seems to be like a

676
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 1: mental illness that like makes you just want to get

677
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,560
Speaker 1: more and more and more money. It's like an addiction yeah,

678
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 1: and I think it makes you scared. So it makes

679
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 1: you so scared of losing that money and so therefore

680
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,279
Speaker 1: ready to yea oppress people. Uh, And I know I

681
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 1: see my parents generation and I'm like, I don't I

682
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,720
Speaker 1: see how stressful it is to you know, own a house,

683
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: just all the stuff that I'm like, I don't even

684
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 1: care about that because I just saw how it stresses

685
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 1: you out all the time. And you have all the

686
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: ship you don't need, So I'm good. Yeah, guys, let's

687
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 1: just I'm a millennial, is what I'm saying. I'm super

688
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,880
Speaker 1: definitely millennial. And you haven't finished all your avocado top

689
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:36,839
Speaker 1: yea waiting? Um? Yeah. And I think there's actually this

690
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 1: uh public town hall meeting that where a chance the rapper,

691
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 1: who I feel like is you know, he's an artist

692
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 1: who I like a lot, but he's also you know,

693
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 1: somebody who cares about the community that he came up

694
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 1: in came like stood up and was like, I don't know.

695
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 1: I think we actually have a clip of of his

696
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: I've been asking for money for over a year now

697
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 1: to fund these classrooms, and on the fourth of July weekend,

698
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: they announced that they like a cool finessing way that

699
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 1: they that they have million dollars or that they're proposing

700
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,920
Speaker 1: to build a million dollar cop academy. What else can

701
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:20,880
Speaker 1: I say? What is y'all doing? Um? Why that you

702
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 1: shut up to public? Heuse? I mean, yeah, he's pretty

703
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 1: he's on top of him. His dad's involved in politics,

704
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 1: and he like if that wasn't clear, he was really

705
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:34,280
Speaker 1: adamant about getting better funding for schools, and the city

706
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 1: overwhelmingly approved an agreement that would build a nine million

707
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 1: dollar police academy. So it's like, where's that money coming from?

708
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: And yeah, again he donated, like he puts his money

709
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 1: where his mouth is. He donated a million dollars to

710
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 1: Chicago Public schools. Um. So, yeah, I don't know, it

711
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:56,360
Speaker 1: just seems like I don't think it's uh, you know,

712
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 1: I think learning all this stuff can be sort of

713
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: make you cynical and uh, can kind of be a bummer.

714
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 1: But there there's also hope. First of all, that we're

715
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 1: actually able to find this information out is kind of

716
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:13,359
Speaker 1: the the first step in the right direction. And you know,

717
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 1: I do think there are people who are out there

718
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: trying to do the right thing. Yeah, And it's again

719
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 1: very very promising, just seeing how some of those elections

720
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 1: turned out. Of like, people who are not just career politicians,

721
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,239
Speaker 1: but people who are empathetic and stand for something are

722
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,760
Speaker 1: being voted into office, even if it's a city council,

723
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,759
Speaker 1: even if it's a being a mayor or state state legislature.

724
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:37,839
Speaker 1: That's it's just it's comforting. I guess again, it's more

725
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 1: of like a sigh of relief after this last year.

726
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 1: So yeah, about a year later, we needed something, give

727
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 1: us a little bit of glimmer of hope. Keep it up,

728
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 1: keep it up. All right, we'll be right back after

729
00:40:48,080 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: these messages and we're back. Uh. So we're just gonna

730
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:04,800
Speaker 1: to go out on a couple uh lightish stories. Miles.

731
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 1: You've got your on our Canada beat, Yes, in the

732
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 1: Great White North, one of my favorite countries. Yeah, so

733
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:16,760
Speaker 1: Canada uh decided they're like the country's broadcasting watchdog ruled

734
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 1: that the word fuck is so commonplace now in French

735
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: speaking areas that you could say fun on French language

736
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: radio now. So shout outs to Canada, because yes, I

737
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 1: like that they're acknowledging. Hey, language evolves, some words just

738
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 1: become so commonplace. They're no longer really vulgar like they

739
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 1: were once, so you know, and funk it's just fucking French, right,

740
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:40,439
Speaker 1: it's not Is it a different word? I think they're

741
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: saying like that they is it spelled a few QUI

742
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:44,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's literally would be funny if

743
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 1: they're just like, because it's not a word in French,

744
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: why do we care? You know? They were like there

745
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 1: are complaints because like one was someone aired a clip

746
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:55,880
Speaker 1: on the radio of like Madonna at one of the

747
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: rallies saying like fun Donald Trump, I think, and then

748
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,800
Speaker 1: saw like a Green Day concert where in the coverage

749
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: you said funk and they're like, look, dude, it's not

750
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 1: a problem. So yeah, I got it, and say we

751
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 1: don't cover world news. Canadians are so nice, like I'm saying,

752
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 1: is just like sighing, it's not written well, I mean,

753
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 1: but in Coebec, man, that's a whole other that's there

754
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 1: are some nasty people. Don't say that. Shout out to

Speaker 1: where he was like, Yeah, I'm gonna do something nice

762
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,480
Speaker 1: for myself by a hundred sixty k first edition of

763
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,319
Speaker 1: a Harry Potter book, which is a little lame. Why

764
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 1: do you need that? Also, I don't know, it's a

765
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 1: like it's not like a Gutenberg. But I think I

766
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 1: might have had a first edition of the Harry Potter books,

767
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: like when I first like I've read the Harry Potter

768
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 1: books in Europe when I was over there, like studying

769
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: over there, and like had like a real like shitty

770
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 1: like beat up early copy of like Harry Potter. Is

771
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 1: it now? I don't know, man, I gave it to

772
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: like one of my friends over there. Well I'm sure

773
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 1: it was like beat to ship. I'm sure he wants

774
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 1: a mint one, but also like it was only it's

775
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: only like fifteen years ago, like that that shouldn't be

776
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 1: a thing that costs that much. I'm not sure what

777
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: that even looks like. So that's not even the The

778
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 1: big news is that He's been spending money on Birken bags,

779
00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: the famous Hermes Birken bag, very very hard to get,

780
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: almost impossible to get, Like you can go store no,

781
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 1: but if you go to the RMS store, they will

782
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:44,080

Speaker 1: the pot. Well you can do that on like e Bay.

786
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, because I know that's how people

787
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,239
Speaker 1: buy him, is like the secondary market where they're just

788
00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 1: a super resoul that I'm disturbing. I like imagining him

789
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: on eBay. His user name is just Drake, just sweating,

790
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:10,319
Speaker 1: just like suggesting these giant glasses counting counting down to

791
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 1: zero and he's like damn and I got out bid again.

792
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:16,640
Speaker 1: I just feel like this is the like lonely whack

793
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:20,840
Speaker 1: sort of Drake version of when Michael Jackson was like

794
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 1: buying the Elephant Man's bones and stuff. It's just like

795
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,800
Speaker 1: how he's how he's going crazy and spending his money

796
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 1: is just like one day I'm going to have a wife,

797
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:32,400
Speaker 1: and we do we say, yeah, he's buying him for

798
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 1: his future wife. App was like, you can just you

799
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 1: can just buy bags if you like them. Also, you

800
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,479
Speaker 1: don't have to say therefore your future wife. It's also

801
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,719
Speaker 1: mad weird, like if he meets her and then he's like,

802
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 1: and these are the bags that I've got for you.

803
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 1: I knew you would come one day, Like what in

804
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: any relationship, even if I dated a woman, was like

805
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:56,759
Speaker 1: and hear all these like PlayStation four, Like okay, what's

806
00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:58,479
Speaker 1: really going on? Also like I want you to spend

807
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,839
Speaker 1: money on me now not pas exactly exactly. Then he'll

808
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:05,360
Speaker 1: be like, we're good, right because I spent like those bags,

809
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 1: so we're good. You don't need anything else. That is

810
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: a really sad move. Maybe it's a setup move to

811
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 1: be the cheapest husband ever. I think this is just

812
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,359
Speaker 1: a move for him being like I'm looking for a while.

813
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,839
Speaker 1: This is like, hey everyone, is he having that much

814
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:20,759
Speaker 1: trouble that he has to broadcast? He's like, hey, you

815
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 1: get with me? Like not that I'm just like a

816
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:26,359
Speaker 1: seemingly nice guy rapper Drake that like, I also come

817
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 1: with this set of broken bags. But I feel like

818
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,640
Speaker 1: that's his whole thing, Like his whole career is him

819
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 1: being like, hey, I'm secretly a nice guy, like even

820
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 1: though I brag about like the fact that I'm having

821
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 1: too much sex that I'm like bored by it, but secretly,

822
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: like I, he is lonely. All right. Yeah, good for you, Drake.

823
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:54,240
Speaker 1: Good on you. Not in Harry Potter corner that broken

824
00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: bag market, Drake. Uh, Barbara, this has been a lot

825
00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 1: of fun. Yeah, thanks for having me, Thank you for

826
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 1: joining us. Where can people find you? I'm on Twitter

827
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: at Bab's Gray. You can find me on there, and

828
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:11,439
Speaker 1: uh yeah, check out my new podcast Britney's Instagram. It's great.

829
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 1: You sound really excited. So tell us why Britney's Instagram

830
00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 1: is worth devoting a podcast, Because she's basically like under

831
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 1: house Arrests. She's not really somebody who can go out

832
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,360
Speaker 1: and be a normal person. So this is her direct

833
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,839
Speaker 1: access to the world. Like this her direct output. These

834
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 1: are her messages and her messages. They are memes about chocolate,

835
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,719
Speaker 1: they are pictures of an empty peach cobbler pan that

836
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 1: she ate. They are fashion shows in her on her veranda,

837
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:44,120
Speaker 1: her painting stuff. It's it's really an amazing view into

838
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,800
Speaker 1: this woman's just like a direct line into the mind

839
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:51,759
Speaker 1: someone who has is just like basically late career Elvis, Right,

840
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,439
Speaker 1: she's late career Elvis NG like kind of losing touch

841
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,520
Speaker 1: with reality and yeah, but it's very innocent and sweet

842
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 1: and you kind of feel happy for her in a way. Right,

843
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 1: But there's some very like there's a post that we

844
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 1: analyze that she posts a picture with Mariah Carey and

845
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 1: she's like, you never know who you're gonna meet at

846
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 1: a dinner party, and then it's a two picture posts

847
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 1: and the next picture is a very bad picture of

848
00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 1: her steak dinner. So she just has no concept what's

849
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,439
Speaker 1: going on. It's it's great. So we kind of break

850
00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:19,200
Speaker 1: them down and we're gonna go back in time and

851
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,120
Speaker 1: figure out when she started taking control of the Instagram

852
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,399
Speaker 1: account versus of being like a publicist all that kind

853
