This is a podcast where we take a 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: deep dive into America's share consciousness. It's Tuesday, June, which 5 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: of course means that it is International Bath Day, National 6 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: Strawberry Shortcake Day, which makes sense that this is about 7 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: the time that we all start. I like that it's international, 8 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: but like that the Globe recognized bath Day America. There's 9 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: only people doing Strawberry Shortcake Day. Do you like it? 10 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: What you work with a bath? I don't really do 11 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: bads other than if I'm very sick and then I 12 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: just want to like not stand up. Otherwise I don't 13 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: really work with baths. I give a lot of baths, 14 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: and the process of, you know, draining the water after 15 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: a four year old and a six year old take 16 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: a bath does not make me think of that as 17 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: like a cleansing process. But it's all left in the tub, 18 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: You leave it all, leave it all on the floor 19 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: as this way. And I don't mean to be cheeky, 20 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: but does your wife Jay baths? Yeah, that's right because 21 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 1: they see bath culture that greens have big bath culture 22 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: Japanese big bath culture. Turkish people have big bath culture, 23 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: Fins have big bath culture. I was reading something about 24 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: how the languages are similar because we might descend from 25 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: like the same ancient people who are into baths or 26 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: some ship. But I love man, it's the best. It's 27 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: such a good weight. If you have in trouble, sleeping 28 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 1: good soak right before you go to sleep. It's very relaxable. 29 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: But not right before you go to sleep. So you 30 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: call asleep in the bath and no bad knew that, yeah, 31 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: but usually just to set you up, set you up, 32 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: all right? Well, my name is Jack O'Brien, a K 33 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: John being a Ramsey eating Bangnet's. That was just a 34 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: haunting Dolly mini search that Lex Lugie shared with me. 35 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: But I thought I thought it sounded in enough like 36 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: a discarded eminem lyric that I thought i'd I incorporate 37 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: into the K. And John is my first name in 38 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: Ramsey is my mother's maiden names.

Japanese Heritage 45 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 1: Night is that Dodger Stadium on tomorrow and them, I'm 46 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: really trying to go, but I can't. It's the Dodgers 47 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: playing the Angels, and You're like, okay, so they knew 48 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: what they were doing. They wanted to bring all the 49 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 1: Japanese people out and I wanted to go, but I 50 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 1: can't get the hat with the special hat for that day. 51 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: So now I'm like, I don't know anyway, if you 52 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: can't off you, well, why can't you get it? Well, 53 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: because the tickets like a special package when they do 54 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 1: those theme nights at Dodger Stadium, like they there's like 55 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: a select number if thing not like everybody gets the hat. 56 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: It's like you gotta buy that ticket ahead of time, 57 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: so that ticket gets you a hat, the hat ticket. 58 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: The hat tickets are gone.

Really really enjoying the Dodgers hat really enjoying 62 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: feeling a part of the city, rather than a thing 63 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: that gets you the middle finger.

And you know, we've talked about the exploits 66 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: of the Sixers hat, cause it's caused them to lose 67 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: in the second round every year, and it's also caused 68 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: people to be like, fucking eight the Sixers.

It's not gonna be the hop story, 134 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: but I thought it was the story. We shouldn't James Patterson, 135 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: the crime novelist who has the most best selling novels 136 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: of the last fourteen years, but not nary a single 137 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: book that is in the top one fifty best selling 138 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: books because he just turns them out. He apparently has 139 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: a factory that he oversees and is kind of a dick. 140 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: So we'll talk about that because his names and his 141 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: output is going viral on Twitter and TikTok from librarians 142 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: just being like, so this whole section here that you 143 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: might guess biography science reference is actually all just James 144 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: Patterson books. And then when you go over to the 145 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: kids section, the teen section to all all Patterson Baby. 146 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: So we'll talk about that. We will check in with Couchella, 147 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: as Miles has cleverly called it, just what's going on? 148 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: What's being day two?

It's like Monday through Thursday, they're 156 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: going to be dropping hot TV specials. That's a question, 157 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: that's a that's not a pointed question that I expect 158 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 1: an answer to. That's hypothetical, just out there, like what's Yeah, 159 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: they're they're not they're not doing the marketing right like 160 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,199 Speaker 1: you know when Fox did like cool stuff on Sundays 161 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 1: in the nineties like every seven eleven made sure you 162 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: knew about it, thank you.

Oh man, 420 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: I'm bet Gavin Rossdale stoked about that he finally got 421 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: a number one with that Kate Bush song. He thinks 422 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 1: he thinks Bush and then an artist called Kate Yeah, 423 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: that that Kate Bush collapsed or something. Right, All right, well, 424 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 1: let's let's check in. I wasn't here for Monday's episode. 425 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: I am just now getting this is. This is gonna 426 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:19,199 Speaker 1: be my first time I have avoided couchella as much 427 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: as possible, other than you know, hearing from my parents 428 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 1: who were staying with me that they were like, man, 429 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: that's pretty bad. Huh pretty bad. Yeah, the day the 430 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 1: sixth was bad. Huh Um. So yes, Couchell and Night 431 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: one we saw that it was just basically receipts were 432 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: flying and it was like a teeth They're like, just 433 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 1: so you know, this is what we're gonna get into 434 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: over the course of these next few hearings. Night Too 435 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 1: there was even more. Really again, like we said on 436 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: yesterday's episode, there's nothing we didn't know or suspect right, 437 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 1: Like we we could see the way Trump was talking. 438 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 1: We've read the reports that he was leaning on different 439 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: people to try and get certain things to happen. Just 440 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: we're now getting in a more like official like, here 441 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: are evidentiary findings. So the first thing about Night To 442 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: that caught people's attention was that the committee says they 443 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: got the goods in the sense that they say they 444 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: have uncovered enough evidence for d o J to consider 445 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 1: a criminal indictment against Donald Trump for seeming to overturn 446 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: the election. They feel that they have They like, that's 447 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 1: not really, that's not a question at this point and 448 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: they also in this report from a p says, quote, 449 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: additional evidence is to be released in hearings this week. 450 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: Democrats say that will demonstrate that Trump and some of 451 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: his advisers engaged in quote a massive effort to spread 452 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: mis information, pressured the d o J to embrace embrace 453 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: his false claims, and urged Mike Pence to reject the 454 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 1: state electors and block the vote. But take that with 455 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: a couple of shakers of salts, since the d o 456 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: J also refused to charge Mark Meadows with misdemeanor contempt, 457 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: and you're like, well, when do you keep people accountable? 458 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: But again, I have no idea what they're legal strategies. 459 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: I'm not a fucking legal expert. So I'll I'll believe 460 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,959 Speaker 1: ship when I see it. Either, Yeah, you you won't. 461 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,959 Speaker 1: You won't hear it listening audience. But Jack did just 462 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 1: edit out a minute of him snickering at the possibility 463 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: of this actually happy ending. Yeah, I mean that is 464 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: partially how I feel like. I think we're getting some 465 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,719 Speaker 1: good color. Like later, I think we learned that Rudy 466 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: Giuliani was drunk, like when he was drunk. But it's 467 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: just like funny to hear the actual details of like 468 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: what was going on, it does seem like their strategy 469 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: in my like kind of just taking a step back 470 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: and looking at what what people seem to think of 471 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: the takeaways from the first couple of minutes. The strategy 472 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: seems to be like proving that he knew he lost. Yeah, yeah, 473 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: that he's not that he's not stupid, Like he's being like, no, 474 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: I really thought the election was getting taken from me 475 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: enough fair like that that's bullshit that he knew he lost. 476 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: So now every every bit of effort was put into 477 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: just altering reality in his favorite strange position to be in, 478 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 1: like we're here to prove that he's not stupid, right, well, yeah, 479 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: And it also seems to open up the possibility that 480 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: he just keeps doubling down and publicly saying no, I 481 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: don't know that I lost because I didn't lose, and 482 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: their big steel fake news and like I don't know 483 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: like that. So that's why it's good for me to 484 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: hear like that there might be some strategy going on 485 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: more promptly. Sure, I mean, I'm sure if you know 486 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: they're they're probably there, like whatever, Peter Navarro, probably not 487 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: big enough for them to put the like put the 488 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: screws on them quite yet, whereas Mark Meadows is chief 489 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: of staff, maybe they're like, well, well let some more 490 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: stuff come out and then we'll turn up the heat 491 00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 1: and see if now, if he's ready to talk or 492 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: whatever that could. But that's me, that's off of me 493 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 1: just watching really cool mob films, you know what I mean, 494 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: But that that you're picturing art just the background make 495 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: him sing boys, yeah, Marc Meadows, you know Mark metas 496 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,959 Speaker 1: an interrogation room and Marrick Garlic comes in. If Garlic, 497 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: Mark Garland comes in and he's got a pitch pipe 498 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: and he just goes, that's your key, now, start yours. 499 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to be like that. But 500 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: what is clear is that they are using republicans or 501 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: nonpartisan people to reinforce the message that we knew that 502 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: was an l You know, you're not hearing democrats like 503 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: their witnesses aren't Democrats right now or outwardly Democrat people 504 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: like they're either experts or their Republicans themselves who were 505 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: serving under Trump. So the next bit of thing that 506 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 1: was going on Bill Stepian, who is the twenty twenty 507 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: campaign manager, probably knows a lot. You know, they're saying that, 508 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,239 Speaker 1: you know on night too, that he's likely to be 509 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 1: pressed as a behind the scenes veteran of Republican campaigns 510 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: and to know what Trump's inner circle knew about the results. 511 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: But then on Monday morning, it turns out that he 512 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: can't appear to testify, and everyone's like, oh, what his 513 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: I believe his wife hasn't been labor So it ended 514 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 1: up not being even as juicy as a lot of 515 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: people are, like, dude, would they say to him? Because 516 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: he's already testified. So that was like a little bit 517 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: of a blip where people like, he's gonna testify and 518 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: then they're like, he has a family emergency. And my 519 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: first thought was like, well, how many horseheads did he 520 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: have in his bed when he worked up this morning? 521 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 1: I mean that technically is a family emergency because you 522 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: gotta hide all the horseheads from your wife so he 523 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: doesn't get mad at you. Bill, are you buying horses again? 524 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: Everything's good. I'm saying, check the garbage can and you're 525 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 1: going to find a bottle of castor oil in there. 526 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: You know, she wasn't. She wasn't due to that does work? 527 00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 1: That does work when you know, I've seen people who 528 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: are expecting and just like, Okay, we're at the do date, 529 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: nothing's happening, let's get let's get things moving and moving. 530 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: They did get. Yeah, Castrol said tech I could get 531 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: a rewrite on that one pretty mouth um. And then 532 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: another another not revelation more of like a yeah no ship, 533 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 1: was that Rudy Giuliani was fucking waived on election night, 534 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: so drunk that he kept telling Trump to declare victory 535 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: despite there being many votes still left a count. But 536 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: was he actually drunk though? And this is fantastic the 537 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: way the January six Committee put this video together. They 538 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,239 Speaker 1: basically did a side by side of people in the 539 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: campaign talking about how drunk Giuliani was, along with Giuliani's words, 540 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: and it just it just makes it makes Rudy look 541 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 1: worse somehow. M And just a caveat, I'm gonna let 542 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: these clips hook because it's kind of important to hear 543 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 1: like the people who are speaking, So you're going to 544 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 1: hear Jason Miller speak first, who is the former Trump 545 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: campaign senior advisor. And I believe the CEO of Get 546 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 1: or the Twitter fucking clone that nobody uses. So here's 547 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: him being a social Oh get or the other Twitter 548 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: quote that nobody uses, the other crap one. And then 549 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: you also can to hear from Bill Steppi into who's 550 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: the campaign manager? But you're as commentary as it's happening. 551 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 1: Just anything you're missing by just listening to the audio, 552 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,479 Speaker 1: and I will giggle. Is there anyone in that conversation who, 553 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 1: in your observation, had had too much to drink? Okay? 554 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: Leading question? Uh, like Virjuliani, tell me more about that. 555 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:50,720 Speaker 1: What was your observation, like his potential intoxication during that 556 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 1: that discussion about what the president should say when he's 557 00:34:55,320 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: addressed the national election night, and the mayor was definitely intoxicated, 558 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: But I do not um no, his level of talking 559 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: intoxication when he spoke with the president, for example, are 560 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:13,240 Speaker 1: part of any discussions talking to the people I mentioned 561 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: Mr Steffi and Mr Maddows or anyone else about whether 562 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: the president should make any sort of speech on election night. 563 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 1: I mean I spoke to the president. They may have 564 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 1: been president, but um president spoke to the presidents several 565 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 1: times that night. There are suggestions by I believe was 566 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 1: Mary Giuliani to go and declare victory and say that 567 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 1: we wanted out right, it was far to making any 568 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:52,400 Speaker 1: calls like that. Ballots, ballots, We're still being counted, ballots 569 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 1: were still going to be accounted for days, um, and 570 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: it was far too early to be making any properation 571 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: like that. I remember passes to Gretzky okay to invest 572 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 1: in my memory, and I was saying that we should 573 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: not go and declare victory until we had a better 574 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: sense of the numbers. And Gretzky's in his office he 575 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: scores okay, uh yeah, so pretty funny build up for 576 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: him to be like. And I remember saying, we should 577 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:24,720 Speaker 1: not declare victory since we uh don't know who lost, 578 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: and that would knee cap democracy. It says a lot, right, 579 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: like all the people that are involved, no, clearly no 580 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 1: one had the ability to speak truth to power, or 581 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: they did. And this is the thing you do see 582 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: is that when they did, he didn't care. And that's 583 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,800 Speaker 1: you know, this is like there's countless testimonies from today 584 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: from people who are in orbit of the administration hunt 585 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 1: like whether they're from d O J or like the 586 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 1: r n C or whatever. I mean, Like, dude, there's 587 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: fucking like no, there's nothing, dude, like Bill Barr basically, 588 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: and they there was a clip of him saying it 589 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 1: just showed how dis connected from reality he was when 590 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 1: he kept insisting about these things happening. So I also 591 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 1: want to play this other one from acting Attorney General 592 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: in this sort of space between the election and the 593 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: in January six, Richard Donohue, who's just to get an 594 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 1: idea of the desperation. He told Trump multiple times that 595 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 1: there was fucking nothing there, and he basically said the 596 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: second he like Trump would realize the jig was up, 597 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 1: he just moved to another thing. Yeah, just back on 598 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 1: Giuliani real quick. I do think it's interesting, like just 599 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: to view it from like there are thousands of people 600 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 1: at any given time, and especially in a white house 601 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 1: like this one, where it is purely about like self enrichment, 602 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: and you know, finding like thousands of people trying to 603 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 1: get close to the president. The only one who could 604 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: because they were the only one who was telling him 605 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: what he wanted to hear was ship faced like that's 606 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 1: the that's the only reason we're talking about this. We're 607 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,799 Speaker 1: not talking about it because like Rudy Giuliani, you know, 608 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,320 Speaker 1: has a drinking problem. And it's funny. It's be because 609 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 1: he was giving, like having meaningful conversations that would have, like, 610 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 1: you know, determined the future of the country and whether 611 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: there was a civil war. But the fact that this 612 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 1: is a person the Trump who like is only looking 613 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: for whatever he wants to hear, means that sometimes that 614 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 1: is going to be the drunkest person in the room. Uh. 615 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 1: And that that's what we saw, which is it's like, 616 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: it's like, the only person who thinks you're a terrible 617 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 1: business idea is a guy high off cocaine next to you, 618 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 1: And you're like, right, that's like, yeah, dude, I totally 619 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 1: think we need like an N sixty four retro bar. 620 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 1: That also is like fucking karate classes. Man, oh Man, 621 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: I thought you were using terminology. I thought you were 622 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,880 Speaker 1: using front financial terminology, and then I realized what you 623 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: had said, and I actually immediately took out a loan 624 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: I've already taken out alone for that business. Yeah, are 625 00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 1: you offering franchising an option? Look, I told you, Stephen, 626 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 1: I'm not interested. It feels kind of weird for me 627 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: to get involved in that business. But anyway, started the 628 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,439 Speaker 1: ground up, that was a long walk and you're you're 629 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: so this is the former acting deputy Attorney General. Yeah, 630 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 1: I was saying, look this. Trump came to me constantly saying, 631 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 1: look at this, this is bullshit because at that blame 632 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: billbar Is like, dude, I can't fucking like this is 633 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 1: non sense, Like this is like it ain't happening. So 634 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: the next guy comes in and he's having the same problem, 635 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 1: and he looks like Vladimir Putin as played by Martin 636 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 1: short perspective and to try to put it in very 637 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: clear terms to the president, and I said something to 638 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,360 Speaker 1: the effect of, sir, We've done dozens of investigations, hundreds 639 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 1: of interviews. The major allegations are not supported by the 640 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:48,359 Speaker 1: evidence developed. We've looked at Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Themata, We're 641 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: doing our job. Much of the info you're getting his false. 642 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 1: And then I went into, for instance, this thing from Michigan, 643 00:39:56,239 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: this report about sixty error rate. Reality is it was 644 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:06,320 Speaker 1: only point zero zero ring less than one in fifteen thousands. 645 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 1: So the President accepted that. Um, he said, okay, fine, 646 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 1: but what about the others. And again this gets back 647 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 1: to the point that there were so many of these 648 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 1: allegations that when you gave him a very direct answer 649 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 1: on one of them, he wouldn't fight us on it, 650 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 1: but he would move to another allegation.

I'm just 709 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 1: gonna play this like clip that they played at the 710 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 1: end of the hearing today from one of the investigators 711 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: who was looking like I probably like a financial forensics 712 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: person looking into what the defense fund was, And I'm 713 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:57,879 Speaker 1: just gonna play this whole clip just you can kind 714 00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 1: of hear that this is like the one of the 715 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: lad big sound bites of the day for conservative news 716 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 1: to not play. And I'm senior investigative counsel with the 717 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 1: House Select Committee to investigate the January six attack on 718 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:12,280 Speaker 1: the United States Capital. Between election day and January six, 719 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: the Trump campaign sent millions of fundraising emails to Trump supporters, 720 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: sometimes as many as twenty five a day. The emails 721 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: claimed the quote left wing mob was undermining the election, 722 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 1: implored supporters to quote step up to protect the integrity 723 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,240 Speaker 1: of the election, and encourage them to quote fight back. 724 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: But as the Select Committee has demonstrated, the Trump campaign 725 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 1: knew these claims of voter fraud were false, yet they 726 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 1: continued to barage small dollar donors of emails, encouraging them 727 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 1: to donate to something called the official Election Defense Fund. 728 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:50,279 Speaker 1: The Select Committee discovered no such fund existed. So now 729 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 1: they're now you're gonna hear testimony from people that were 730 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: in the campaign staff. This first one is a Trump 731 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:58,279 Speaker 1: campaign staffer. I don't believe there is actually a fun 732 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,240 Speaker 1: called the Election Defense Fund, different to say the Election 733 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:04,360 Speaker 1: Defects Fund was another. I think we've called the marketing 734 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 1: tactic and tell us about these funds as marketing tactics. Uh, 735 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: just the topic matter where money could potentially go to 736 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: be how money could potentially be used. The claims that 737 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 1: the election was stolen were so successful President Trump and 738 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:26,360 Speaker 1: his allies raised two fifty million dollars nearly a hundred 739 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 1: million dollars in the first week after the election. Okay, 740 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 1: now I kind of get the strategy that that starts 741 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 1: to makes sense to me that, like, if they are 742 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:40,840 Speaker 1: knowingly lying and if they eventually have somebody or some 743 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:43,160 Speaker 1: evidence where he's like, ye had no ship, it's bullshit. 744 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:47,399 Speaker 1: But just we're making loads of money here scratch right, 745 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 1: then I could see how that would be disqualifying or 746 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,399 Speaker 1: at least make it so that they're like, look, man, 747 00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 1: you need to give all these people their money back 748 00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 1: because you were knowingly like that. That sounds like fraud 749 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:04,479 Speaker 1: to me, right, tell people a fake thing, a fake 750 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,759 Speaker 1: THINGY is going to and then it's just going to 751 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 1: something else. But yeah, and then I feel like he 752 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 1: would rather not give money back, like not he would 753 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 1: rather not give two fifty million dollars back than just 754 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:28,399 Speaker 1: than anything. That dude really likes this stuff. Yeah, the 755 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:32,319 Speaker 1: spy magazine story that comes up a lot, but I 756 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 1: think it's worth repeating that they did a thing in 757 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 1: the eighties when they were like sending refunds refund checks 758 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 1: to all the various like supposedly richest men in New 759 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:50,920 Speaker 1: York and the dollar amount got lower and lower and lower, 760 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,320 Speaker 1: and they wanted to see, like who would keep cashing 761 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:56,320 Speaker 1: the checks. And the only person who cashed the checks 762 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,280 Speaker 1: up to the very end, up to like the two 763 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 1: cent mark was Donald Trump. So he yeah, he likes 764 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 1: the money to a pathological degree that doesn't exactly you know, 765 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:13,320 Speaker 1: exists in reality. And so could have got your full 766 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: tank of gas. That's right before Biden came in. This guy, 767 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 1: thank you. All right, let's take a quick break. We'll 768 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: come back and talk about James Patterson. And we're back. 769 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:44,960 Speaker 1: And there's been a couple of like viral videos from librarians, 770 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 1: I mean more than a couple of librarians or absolute 771 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 1: content machines. As as you will know, we've all known, 772 00:47:54,680 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 1: just highlighting how much just cheer netweight of books in 773 00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:06,520 Speaker 1: the library are written in quotes by James Patterson. James 774 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 1: Patterson is just one of one of those names that 775 00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:13,799 Speaker 1: I've always this, Like, Sue Grafton was one when I 776 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 1: was younger. I don't know if she's still right, but 777 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 1: it was like, uh, I've gotta okay. Sue Grafton, favorite author, 778 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 1: author of the those Alphabet books, Yes, died before she 779 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:31,879 Speaker 1: could release Z and it's one of the most heartbreaking 780 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,120 Speaker 1: things I've ever heard. I don't know really, she did 781 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:39,879 Speaker 1: twenty five books and then died. Oh yeah, Why came 782 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,200 Speaker 1: out in seventeen and she passed away in twenty seventeen. 783 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 1: Is for alibi, as we all know. B is of 784 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 1: course for burglar, C is for corpse, D is for 785 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:59,840 Speaker 1: dead to beat. Okay, alright, goos. But but that, like 786 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:04,319 Speaker 1: James Patterson books were in like that section of my 787 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 1: living room growing up, you know, just crime crime novels 788 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 1: that I think the closest there's been to one that 789 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 1: had like crossover appeal ton dime rack paperback novels is 790 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:20,360 Speaker 1: the Alex Cross books. There was a movie Alex Cross 791 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:26,280 Speaker 1: starring Tyler Perry that failed failed to catch fire as media. 792 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:30,359 Speaker 1: That's starring Tyler Perry as Media. But another thing that 793 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,239 Speaker 1: he James Patterson did recently was he started teaming up 794 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:38,239 Speaker 1: with celebrities to write books starring idealized fantasy versions of 795 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:43,279 Speaker 1: the celebrities, starting with Bill Clinton. So this is the Yeah, 796 00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:45,760 Speaker 1: that's the only other time we've talked about James Patterson 797 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 1: on this show. Um, he wrote a book with Bill 798 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:53,000 Speaker 1: Clinton that was like the President is like his wife 799 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 1: disappears and he gets to like he's an actual hero. 800 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 1: But are you doing Bill pitching the book? That's what 801 00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:05,399 Speaker 1: he sounds. That's I think that's kind of how it went. 802 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,319 Speaker 1: It was just like a fantasy where Hillary disappears and 803 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,360 Speaker 1: he gets to live like as like a James Bonds 804 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,400 Speaker 1: type of figure. I think it was called The President 805 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 1: Is Missing. The most recent is with Dolly Parton, Run Rose, Run, 806 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:27,480 Speaker 1: and Yeah, I don't know it. It's about an aspiring 807 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 1: country singer named any Lee moves to Nashville trying to 808 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 1: shake a dark past and gets helped from a charismatic 809 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 1: country star ruth Anna, who wears wigs, fake nails, and 810 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:44,160 Speaker 1: is Dolly Parton. So he helps somebody be like, would 811 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:46,319 Speaker 1: you ever wish you could do if you were if 812 00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,440 Speaker 1: you could do anything else? But then she's she's still like, 813 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, be a kind of president without a wife. Alright, 814 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: this might be on the nose, but okay, why is 815 00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:03,160 Speaker 1: he Why is he in? I mean, aside from doing 816 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:05,680 Speaker 1: novels that aren't great? Like, what are what are we 817 00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 1: learning now about him? So he's currently promoting a new 818 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 1: autobiography and is making headlines for claiming that the world 819 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 1: is especially hard these days on older white male authors, 820 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:22,200 Speaker 1: which he claims as another form of racism. Yeah, that's 821 00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 1: a quote, another form of racism. He made eighty million 822 00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: dollars in all the year alone. You fuck get out 823 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 1: of here. So I feel like I feel like the 824 00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:42,759 Speaker 1: world has been less and less kind to one of 825 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: the greatest old white man authors. God, his popularity is 826 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:54,879 Speaker 1: thin And is that fair? I don't know. I don't 827 00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,360 Speaker 1: think so who's to say? Who's to say whether it 828 00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:59,879 Speaker 1: is or is not a form of racism? Only got 829 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:05,480 Speaker 1: and there we go. I made I made eighty million dollars. 830 00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 1: Get out of here. So this dude, he's also like 831 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 1: been making a lot of money for a long time. 832 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,680 Speaker 1: Before he was a paperback writer, he worked in the 833 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 1: ad business. He is the one who helped write. And 834 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:22,440 Speaker 1: note that they said helped, right, not like fully authored. 835 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:25,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to grow up. I'm a Toys r 836 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:29,360 Speaker 1: us kid. That was. That's the work of James Patterson. 837 00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:32,200 Speaker 1: No matter how hard I try, I can't get COVID 838 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:39,520 Speaker 1: that one. Oh you know that one? Yeah, he crawled 839 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 1: so push a t could run with I'm loving it right. 840 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:51,359 Speaker 1: But he he also so he doesn't write most of 841 00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:55,000 Speaker 1: his books, probably if I had to guess any of 842 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,440 Speaker 1: them at this point. He utilizes a team of ghost 843 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 1: writers and reportedly sees him self like a show runner 844 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:07,359 Speaker 1: of a TV show. It's interesting why you look at 845 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:11,000 Speaker 1: his books, because some of them are they just say 846 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 1: James Patterson. And those could be like the A VC 847 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,840 Speaker 1: Andrews sort of situation where it's actually somebody else. But 848 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,360 Speaker 1: then there are these other ones that are James Patterson, 849 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 1: and then the title of the book, and then in 850 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 1: little letters, it's like and Byron right right right, and 851 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:34,279 Speaker 1: no last name satisfact, and it's it's the tack. The 852 00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:40,880 Speaker 1: font itself indicates that it's Yeah, he has so many books. 853 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,279 Speaker 1: He's just because of this model, he's able to just 854 00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:47,520 Speaker 1: churn out so many books no individual James Patterson novels 855 00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:50,600 Speaker 1: considered one of the best sellers since two thousand four, 856 00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 1: but he has the most books that are technically best sellers. 857 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,919 Speaker 1: He's considered one of the most best selling authors ever, 858 00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:00,479 Speaker 1: which is an awkward turn of phrase. It I think 859 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:03,799 Speaker 1: like they had to put that together because he's like, 860 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:07,040 Speaker 1: he's one of the most best selling authors, but he's not, 861 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 1: Like his books aren't ever very don't ever sell that much. 862 00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 1: He's just like got it down to a science. He's 863 00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:20,240 Speaker 1: published two hundred and sixty times bestsellers. But he's also 864 00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:22,399 Speaker 1: I don't know, he just has all the hallmarks of 865 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 1: like I would assume that when it comes to the 866 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:30,200 Speaker 1: people who actually write his books, they're not getting paid 867 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:33,640 Speaker 1: like TV writers who have the benefit of like a 868 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:37,080 Speaker 1: union and you know, their names being on the works 869 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 1: that they actually right. So in in two thousand nine, 870 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:45,440 Speaker 1: Stephen King called him a terrible writer, and in Patterson 871 00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:48,160 Speaker 1: announced he was publishing a novella called The Murder of 872 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:52,920 Speaker 1: Stephen King about like Stephen King stalker wants to kill 873 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 1: him eventually, like Withdrew. That's pretty cool. Yeah, I'll give him. 874 00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:00,880 Speaker 1: I guess that is like the novel list equivalent of 875 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:06,240 Speaker 1: like a dish tract, exactly like the Tale of Ady. 876 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:12,439 Speaker 1: Don you know what the murder Stephen King? Whoa, Wow, 877 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:14,839 Speaker 1: you might be right, Stephen, like he really might be 878 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 1: in Lets push a tea bag just like really like, 879 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:23,879 Speaker 1: oh you are hiding a child? Well they overlap more 880 00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 1: than I even originally thought. He was also sued by 881 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:30,839 Speaker 1: an ex girl from for stealing her ideas. She had 882 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: to drop her case because she ran out of money 883 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:37,640 Speaker 1: to pay her lawyers. And this is America means he's innocent, right, 884 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,920 Speaker 1: the person who has more money to pay lawyers is innocent. 885 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 1: But just the details of her claims like kind of 886 00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:49,440 Speaker 1: ring like kind of are indicative, if true, of the 887 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:53,840 Speaker 1: sort of person who would build a literature empire on 888 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 1: the backs of people he pays like ship. So after 889 00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 1: they started dating, Patterson asked for help him fleshing out 890 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:03,080 Speaker 1: the characters Ristine Johnson, the love interest for Alex Cross 891 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 1: in the Detective thriller. I don't even have to say 892 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:09,359 Speaker 1: the name. We all know chat and mouse. He'd write 893 00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:12,360 Speaker 1: the Alex character, She'd write Christine, she said, and Patterson 894 00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 1: would dedicate the book to her, but which she didn't. 895 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 1: So he's very stingy again with the byelines. He's like, 896 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:20,440 Speaker 1: and I'll say that I like you in the inside cover, 897 00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 1: which she didn't realize, claims was that he was secretly 898 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:26,799 Speaker 1: poaching ideas and phrases from her letters and from her 899 00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:30,040 Speaker 1: own novel based on her life. Patterson had promised to 900 00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 1: help get her book published, but then used the material 901 00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:36,920 Speaker 1: family stories descriptions of the horse farm where she grew up, 902 00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 1: skiing trips for several of his best sellers. Um you 903 00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:46,279 Speaker 1: fuck wow. I mean I'd expect nothing. Last year was 904 00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:48,880 Speaker 1: like just sees himself. He was like, I'm more like 905 00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:53,440 Speaker 1: an idea collector than a writer. Yeah, surety, I just 906 00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: used your life for my profit. Yeah. So on the 907 00:56:57,080 --> 00:56:59,440 Speaker 1: one hand, the Stephen King thing is cool. On the 908 00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:03,279 Speaker 1: other hand, and maybe not a cool boss. You feel 909 00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 1: like it might be tough to write novels for him. Also, 910 00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 1: it's just there's something like dishonest and the all devouring 911 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:18,080 Speaker 1: capitalism of it all that like these are probably like 912 00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:21,520 Speaker 1: good authors who are writing, or at least like authors 913 00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:25,120 Speaker 1: that people like could enjoy and be like, oh, I 914 00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:27,480 Speaker 1: want to read more of their work, but instead like 915 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:32,280 Speaker 1: it's all being just bastardized and turned into like a A 916 00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 1: A Patterson novel, Like he's just the only author, like 917 00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:40,040 Speaker 1: the brand. He's just created a brand where he's the 918 00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:44,080 Speaker 1: only author and all like promising up and coming crime writers. 919 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 1: He's just like, yeah, you write from me now. Kid. 920 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 1: Back to the stealing from his girlfriend, that's also like 921 00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 1: because the the easy way is to do what he 922 00:57:56,480 --> 00:58:00,360 Speaker 1: does and just higher ghost writers, but like go we 923 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:04,880 Speaker 1: combing through her stuff and pulling things out, Like that's 924 00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 1: not the easiest thing to do. It's still like the 925 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:12,920 Speaker 1: creatively bankrupt thing to do. But like that takes maliciousness, 926 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:17,120 Speaker 1: that takes effort to like pull somebody's work like that 927 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 1: and put it into euro when he could just be 928 00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:22,479 Speaker 1: like throw money at a guy and have him write 929 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:27,160 Speaker 1: something featuring He's probably he's probably just like such lizard 930 00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:30,440 Speaker 1: brained like I'm here to get mine that every relationship 931 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 1: he looks at is a way to like extract something 932 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 1: from himself, you know, like whether that's the people he 933 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,200 Speaker 1: writes with or that right for him, or even a 934 00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 1: relationship if those things, there's like, no, it's in my 935 00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 1: nature to just if there's something to take them and 936 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,080 Speaker 1: just take that right. He reminds me a little bit 937 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:51,200 Speaker 1: of Scott Adams. If you've ever done research into Adams, 938 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:54,920 Speaker 1: he's kind of got I don't know. And they kind 939 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:58,560 Speaker 1: of create for the same sort of broad spectrum of 940 00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:05,439 Speaker 1: American consumers and he yeah, yeah, I read for people 941 00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:11,240 Speaker 1: who definitely aren't disturbed by homophobia, racism, or xenophobia. That's it. 942 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 1: They're just not disturbed by it. I don't know the 943 00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 1: other stuff that's filling the blank. But and we know 944 00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 1: where we're at. Yeah, so anyways, don't don't But James Patterson, 945 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:22,560 Speaker 1: now I need it. Now I know. I'm sure Lydia 946 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 1: Popovich is going to read the Dolly parton one, so 947 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:28,480 Speaker 1: I'm I'm curious to hear her take. Is a true 948 00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:32,479 Speaker 1: Dolly fan be like this is nonsense or or maybe 949 00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 1: it's great. Maybe it's the you know, the exact pairing 950 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:38,959 Speaker 1: that we needed. It's like, wait, this reads like her biography, 951 00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 1: but they just swapped the name out. Wait. People speculated 952 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:47,080 Speaker 1: for a long time that Rose Ruth was had her 953 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:49,880 Speaker 1: body covered in tattoos, which is why she never showed 954 00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:53,080 Speaker 1: her bare arms. This I think this is dollar part second, 955 00:59:54,160 --> 01:00:01,600 Speaker 1: and then created her own theme park, butterfly Land. Oh man, 956 01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 1: there's a there. We have a lot of cause for 957 01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:11,000 Speaker 1: a trip to Tennessee one of these days.
