Speaker 1: had to rank these in importance to you, a fortune, cookie, lollipop, moon, Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: and hot dog? What's number one of all five for you? Ever?
Speaker 1: One would probably be Pennsylvania because that is where my
Speaker 1: extended family comes from and also my wife. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah right, different sides of Pennsylvania. Okay, then probably the
Speaker 1: moon just a big fan overall, it's general Aura and
Speaker 1: then the rest I could kind of take releave the mishmash. Okay, Yeah,

Speaker 1: You're leaving the club, stumbling out of the club. My
Speaker 1: kids getting rolled out the club always my st just
Speaker 1: like it's I feel like one of those like old
Speaker 1: like Looney Tunes commercials where I'm being like lifted by
Speaker 1: my nose by the same So the smell, the of
Speaker 1: it is carrying you to home and salvation. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: just had one the other day when I went to

Speaker 1: here for it. Yeah, I miss the dirty dog a
Speaker 1: MS the street dog dog. Yeah, it's a hot dog.
Speaker 1: Is it a dog in the middle or it always
Speaker 1: looks so plump because of the bacon wrapping, I guess,
Speaker 1: But but it looks killed basso sized, like it's it's
Speaker 1: massive because it's a thicker francs a thicker frame. I
Speaker 1: think based on the wrapping it Acar, you're really observing
Speaker 1: about the thickness of things. Yeah, we're just talking about
Speaker 1: m D being a thick boy. Yeah. Yeah, but the
Speaker 1: way you said, you're like he's he is? Well, because
Speaker 1: all right, so there's a video going viral, Like there
Speaker 1: was a video going viral where he was like part
Speaker 1: of the circle lifting up a groom at a wedding,
Speaker 1: and then uh follow up video the one that probably
Speaker 1: I guess the previous video was like a teaser. The
Speaker 1: main event was a video of him being lifted with
Speaker 1: I think people were speculating it was the bride or
Speaker 1: one of the dress. Yeah, it was clearly not the bride.
Speaker 1: It was the mother of the bride. We we think
Speaker 1: on and beads a lap as he is being he
Speaker 1: is being lifted, and I was just commenting, thick boy,
Speaker 1: he's a very thick boy. Watching a lot of seventies
Speaker 1: six basketball, I have seen many people get hurt just
Speaker 1: running into him. I've seen him get hurt when his
Speaker 1: the full weight of his body is moving in one
Speaker 1: direction and his face hits something that will usually break
Speaker 1: his face. And then we of course have his toes.
Speaker 1: He's got shack toes, which there's reason that big men
Speaker 1: like that have those toes is because when you jump
Speaker 1: stop and you weigh over three and fifteen pounds. It does.
Speaker 1: It does bad things to the front of your feet.
Speaker 1: What's up with his toes? Just imagine, Like it's part
Speaker 1: for me to imagine because I don't have toes. It's
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I'm like, it's been
Speaker 1: a lot, Yeah, since I've lived that foot life. He's
Speaker 1: throwing up gang signs with Oh no, they're they're like yeah,
Speaker 1: like they look structurally like like Jack is saying, like,
Speaker 1: you wait, three hundred pounds and you're constantly like they're
Speaker 1: they're they're they're bearing the brunt of oh my god.
Speaker 1: At this point, they're just for show. Yeah, They're just
Speaker 1: for balance. That's it. They don't do much else. Can't
Speaker 1: even put my toe rings on any for someone with
Speaker 1: like the greatest footwork in in the league. For for
Speaker 1: like a seven foot one dude, like his his feet
Speaker 1: are a true mess. Wow. Not nothing like shock though, shocks.
Speaker 1: Shacks got the now. I'm gonna google shocks toes, dying
Speaker 1: to know what they're like. It's shock on wiki fee
Speaker 1: because you know, I can imagine what if he had
Speaker 1: a high score on wiki fee. Well, no, we got
Speaker 1: to see a shock, all right. I am just gonna
Speaker 1: We're gonna take a moment here. I'm gonna put in
Speaker 1: the chat the side by side of Embden shacks toes
Speaker 1: and there, you know, and these actually don't look as
Speaker 1: bad shot on the right, shack is on the right. Oh,
Speaker 1: he don't look as bad as shock shots. Look, I
Speaker 1: mean some real croake magnum ships happening over there. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: for sure, I mean fin stones. Yeah, he's got toes
Speaker 1: curled undertoes, curled undertoes, his pinky toe, both of their
Speaker 1: pinky toes. It's like they were tracked in a way
Speaker 1: where the pinky too goes back into the foot, so
Speaker 1: they've pushed over. They've pushed over if you if you
Speaker 1: count the pinky toes where the rest of our like
Speaker 1: big or second to last toe is, and then there's
Speaker 1: just like an empty spot on the foot because of
Speaker 1: just the amount of the toes being Yeah, they just
Speaker 1: basically walk around with broken feet all the time. And
Speaker 1: people are like, you're a baby walking like that. They're like, motherfucker,
Speaker 1: my feet can't even handle this ship. You're Stephen A.
Speaker 1: Smith is taking a month off for shoulder surgery. This
Speaker 1: fool who is constantly ripping on people for like not
Speaker 1: wanting it enough. He's taking a month off from his
Speaker 1: job of yelling nonsense for shoulder surgery. Wait, is he
Speaker 1: a podcast host too? He's basically a podcast host, except
Speaker 1: with the TV show and not much more money. So
Speaker 1: shoulder hurts from adjusting the bike right exactly? Apparently? All right, Well, Danielle,
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to know you a little bit better
Speaker 1: in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our listeners a
Speaker 1: couple of things we're talking about. We're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: the mud slinging already starting early election with rumors that
Speaker 1: Bidens on drugs. No, Trump is on drugs. I mean
Speaker 1: Trump is definitely on drugs, but that that is one
Speaker 1: of the things being mentioned as as we head down
Speaker 1: a dark path towards they rematch of Biden Burush Trump
Speaker 1: that hopefully will not happen. We're gonna talk about herschel Walker.
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about Instagram and TikTok's beneficial, just all
Speaker 1: the benefits they they have, They relay on your mental health,
Speaker 1: all that plenty more. But first day, Yeah, we do
Speaker 1: like task our guest, what is something from your search history? Okay,
Speaker 1: something from my search history? Um. This week, I googled
Speaker 1: can you snore anti viral medication? M crush it up?
Speaker 1: Do a couple of not crush it up because it's
Speaker 1: in the capsule, so you would just like break it open,
Speaker 1: so tony powder. So I just wanted to know if
Speaker 1: that was bad. When they're in the capsule, they're basically
Speaker 1: asking you to do that. It is I have done
Speaker 1: in my you know, my darker days. I have opened
Speaker 1: up a capsule, snorted and had and just like been
Speaker 1: unable to use my nose for a good like forty
Speaker 1: eight hours, just sneezing, having like water pouring out of
Speaker 1: my eyes. As as bad, it's not not every drug
Speaker 1: is created equal when it comes to that. And also
Speaker 1: it's bad and you shouldn't do it. But I remember
Speaker 1: I get in trouble in fifth grade for snorting a
Speaker 1: pixie stick on Halloween. Yeah, that's amazing. I think that's
Speaker 1: so funny, Like this is drug, this is a gateway drug,
Speaker 1: these pixie sticks on snorting behavior. I don't know where
Speaker 1: what TV we were watching where we knew like we
Speaker 1: took a broken ruler and we're chopping up lines of
Speaker 1: pixie sticks? Are Mirimi and myle homie DJ and the
Speaker 1: teachers like, what the funk are you guys when we're
Speaker 1: like nothing, Like you guys are just seeing scarface and
Speaker 1: you're right exactly bringing a stuff tiger with you to school,
Speaker 1: right exactly, I got a headband on. I'm like da. Anyway,
Speaker 1: So is there a drug that's recommended usages to be snorted?
Speaker 1: I feel like no, right, oh no, there's the Fentinel
Speaker 1: nasal spray straight upright. Yeah, that's like like I literally
Speaker 1: just finished watching the like HBO documentary about like the
Speaker 1: opioid crisis and stuff, and in the second episode they
Speaker 1: talk about like arc right, no, not narc taken nasally
Speaker 1: like they yeah, they basically like this drug company created
Speaker 1: this Fentel no spray that wanted to make money off
Speaker 1: of it, and it was only a proof for cancer patients,
Speaker 1: so they like went really hard and did a bunch
Speaker 1: of illegal ship and basically like bribed doctors to prescribe
Speaker 1: it for just whatever. Can imagine there are any dosing
Speaker 1: issues with something like that. Yeah, people also got addicted
Speaker 1: to sudo fed I mean okay, I mean I know
Speaker 1: people who got that, like that Naffron or whatever the
Speaker 1: funk That one nasal decongesting spray was or people fully
Speaker 1: people who nutty pots stay netting adding, and it's like,
Speaker 1: you can't tell me that's making it better. I feel
Speaker 1: like you're making it worse. Once you start Nettie Potting,
Speaker 1: you don't stop. It feels like an addiction. That's true.
Speaker 1: Neddie Potting does seem late, like it seems like we
Speaker 1: got at a certain point in the chat. Becker Romo's
Speaker 1: his team, Eddie Pott. I feel like the people I
Speaker 1: know who went to Nettie Pott were the ones who
Speaker 1: were like hooked on afrin or whatever the over the
Speaker 1: counter ship was, and they said, no, I gotta get
Speaker 1: I gotta get right on some other ship. But anyway,
Speaker 1: but there's no going back. Once you break that seal,
Speaker 1: you're kind of in your in for life. I think
Speaker 1: maybe maybe I'm also maybe just blessed to no, I
Speaker 1: don't I know nothing of a world where like my
Speaker 1: sinuses are constantly bothering you. That's not a real thing,
Speaker 1: right hashtag v blessed, hashtag be blessed, cannot be stressed.
Speaker 1: What is something you think is underrated? Okay? Right now?
Speaker 1: I think okay. Jeremy Ellen White and the Bear. I
Speaker 1: am seeing love, but I'm not seeing enough love. He
Speaker 1: is so fine and that show he is such a
Speaker 1: scumbag looking grimy, dirty chef boy. I want him so bad.
Speaker 1: I just want to say yes chef to him all
Speaker 1: night long. We Chef, We chef? Was he? He was
Speaker 1: in a Shameless right, Yeah? He was in. Now I

Speaker 1: double digits for shame Less. What is so? What's your like? So?
Speaker 1: What is it about him? Is that kind of like
Speaker 1: your dating vibe? Like you kind of like a scumb lord? Yeah,
Speaker 1: scumb goblin? Um yeah, Like it really reminds me of
Speaker 1: like because I went to San Francisco State for college
Speaker 1: and it definitely reminds me of being in San Francisco
Speaker 1: and fucking around with like these dirty you know, back
Speaker 1: of the house boys live in a co op in Berkeley. It,
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, just like my friend dated Chefts, Like
Speaker 1: I always was like hanging out in like the back
Speaker 1: of kitchens and oh so the kitchen. Also, it's the
Speaker 1: culinary vibe. Specific the culinary vibe. It's like these dudes
Speaker 1: are obsessed with fine dining, but they eat like ship
Speaker 1: and everyone's doing coke and you know, do you have sheets? No,
Speaker 1: you're gonna like talk to me about like the vintage
Speaker 1: of this wine. The priorities are fucked. All right, let's
Speaker 1: see if you can work snorting into your overrated as well,
Speaker 1: because your two for two so far, we got the snorting,
Speaker 1: the anti virals, coke with the with the back of
Speaker 1: the house. Boys, what is something you think is overrated? Um?
Speaker 1: What's overrated? You know what's ofrated? Doing drugs? To drugs
Speaker 1: is overrated. I just hate hangovers now literally the thing
Speaker 1: that keeps me from doing drugs is like, I don't
Speaker 1: want to be hungover tomorrow. Yeah, what kind of drugs
Speaker 1: you doing? What does that mean? Wait more than drinking,
Speaker 1: like a drinking hangover? Like then like you know, I
Speaker 1: won't say what s UPPs like maybe things that are
Speaker 1: you know, sucking up your serotonin levels and ship And
Speaker 1: then the next day you're like, yeah, no, because all
Speaker 1: of them mess up, you know, sucking your serotonin. You know,
Speaker 1: they're all They're all, you know, messing with the chemicals
Speaker 1: in your brain. That's why. You know, it's just like
Speaker 1: a little bit of pilocybin goes a long way. But
Speaker 1: you know, I get I get the thing with the
Speaker 1: hangovers because my body cannot process alcohol it the same
Speaker 1: way it does. You know, it's crazy, like and I
Speaker 1: it's weird, like I have a thing where for me
Speaker 1: to even get to the point where I'm like feeling
Speaker 1: buzzed like it typically like I realized like three drinks
Speaker 1: too late that I'm like, oh, you've had enough to
Speaker 1: drink because yeah. And then the next day, like I
Speaker 1: remember like the days when I would like sleep four hours,
Speaker 1: stink like a broken handle of vodka, and then roll
Speaker 1: into my like Dodge car dealership job, like with sunglasses on,
Speaker 1: and managed to work like ten hours like it was nothing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: work in retail. Literally, I my god. I worked Black
Speaker 1: Friday at Bon Hannah Republic the day after Thanksgiving. Right
Speaker 1: I woke up, so I think I was still I'm
Speaker 1: sure it was still drunk from the night before. I
Speaker 1: showed up like three hours late. My boss was so mad,
Speaker 1: but like couldn't do anything about it because the store
Speaker 1: was packed with people. It was just like you just
Speaker 1: do something like pick up clothes and help and all
Speaker 1: day like at work, like every now and then I'd
Speaker 1: get like a whiff of vomit, and I was like,
Speaker 1: where is that coming from home? It was like on
Speaker 1: a specific part of my top. It wasn't prominent, but
Speaker 1: it was there in present where it was like not
Speaker 1: all the time, but every so often I'd guess just
Speaker 1: the right you know, distance from it. So yeah, I
Speaker 1: used to be able to do that. Be fine. Like
Speaker 1: I can't even watch The Rock Hungover on T n
Speaker 1: T like I used to like that. I can't even
Speaker 1: that doesn't even work for me. Yeah, I haven't watched
Speaker 1: and I like, I haven't dranken seven years and I
Speaker 1: are coming up on seven years, and I thank you.
Speaker 1: But prior to that, first of all, my intake of
Speaker 1: T n T, and just like also television commercials with
Speaker 1: like has gone way plummeted way, because I never never
Speaker 1: like I'm never so hungover that I can't just press
Speaker 1: the fast forward button, you know. But prior prior to that,
Speaker 1: I I felt, I feel like I know what terminal
Speaker 1: illness feels like some of the hangovers that I've that
Speaker 1: I've you know, gone through, just the worst, the worst feeling. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like being so hungover that you can't even enjoy an
Speaker 1: episode of Law and Order SVU. That's like where you're
Speaker 1: anticipating like the sound because it hurts you physically. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like it's gonna make me sick when I hear it
Speaker 1: this time. No, yeah, yeah, I think that's right. Drugs
Speaker 1: are right. All right, let's take a quick break. We'll
Speaker 1: be back and we'll talk about drugs because that's become
Speaker 1: an area of focus, among among other things, with the
Speaker 1: you know, the two candidates we might be facing. Biden
Speaker 1: is on drugs, maybe not not not the right kind,
Speaker 1: not coppers. Trump is definitely on drugs, but they seemed
Speaker 1: to be, I don't know, working for him. So we'll
Speaker 1: take a break, we'll be right back, and we're back.
Speaker 1: And so we know now Trump's running, like even though
Speaker 1: it might not Facebook official, Yeah, but we we we
Speaker 1: we've known since like the January six basically campaign launch. Yeah,
Speaker 1: exactly knew since the fucking November when he lost when
Speaker 1: when he lost election, only was this he's got to
Speaker 1: run it back because the whole point he was in
Speaker 1: office was to protect himself from like criminal liability, and
Speaker 1: I just wanted that. Rolling Stone points out before you
Speaker 1: getting know the drug talk, is that how much Trump's
Speaker 1: been talking about man, he's got to get back into office,
Speaker 1: because he says, Trump has quote spoken about how when
Speaker 1: you're the president of the United States it is tough
Speaker 1: for politically motivated prosecutors to quote get you, says one
Speaker 1: of the sources who has who has discussed the issue
Speaker 1: with Trump this summer quote. He says, when he is president,
Speaker 1: not if again, a new Republican administration will put a
Speaker 1: stop to the Justice Department investigation that he viewsed as
Speaker 1: the Biden administration working to hit him with criminal charges
Speaker 1: or even put him and his people in prison. So
Speaker 1: good motivation, you know. Yeah, Well, when you're a celebrity,
Speaker 1: they just let you get away with it. They just
Speaker 1: let you do it and do whatever you want. That's
Speaker 1: why it's probably confused. He's like, but I'm a celebrity,
Speaker 1: But he just don't look away at all the bullshit
Speaker 1: that went down the last couple of months. This doesn't
Speaker 1: make sense to me though, because I do feel like
Speaker 1: I don't know. I guess nobody's ever going to forgive him,
Speaker 1: and they'll be like chasing his ass till he's dead.
Speaker 1: But like also nobody like when when he's in office,
Speaker 1: everybody's just looking for every excuse to take his ass down.
Speaker 1: So it feels like a trade off that he's maybe
Speaker 1: not doing the full math on when it comes to
Speaker 1: how much people fucking hate him and want him out
Speaker 1: of office. It feels like he straight up like doesn't
Speaker 1: enjoy work, and it feels like this is so much work.
Speaker 1: So I guess like that's what I'm confused that he's
Speaker 1: running again, you know. I mean I understand like having power,
Speaker 1: but this seems like way too much work then he's
Speaker 1: ever wanted to do in his entire life, right, and
Speaker 1: who knows, it maybe like a end up like a
Speaker 1: Greek tragedy where like he entered like physically didn't have
Speaker 1: it in him to go on another campaign to keep
Speaker 1: him out of jail, and then like it, you know,
Speaker 1: it ends up being not a good Yeah, like then,
Speaker 1: and also might have some notes on his first presidency
Speaker 1: about like how he would have done things differently when
Speaker 1: it comes to like seizing power and just going full
Speaker 1: like taking taking over the FBI. C I A all that.
Speaker 1: I mean, making it work for him the way I
Speaker 1: think the way he sees it is he becomes president,
Speaker 1: he fucking curb stomps the d O J into nothing,
Speaker 1: and then it's like, how are you to what Court
Speaker 1: is gonna do anything? I destroyed him all So you're
Speaker 1: like with that, Homi, And I think that's his logic.
Speaker 1: He's like, if I'm there, at least, I can I
Speaker 1: feel like I'm at the top of this like tree
Speaker 1: and I can just like point fingers and make things happen.
Speaker 1: But he to an extent was doing that. So anyway,
Speaker 1: it's it's just but it's his potential get out of
Speaker 1: free while also throwing your enemies in jail for free
Speaker 1: card that I think he's after. And you know, as
Speaker 1: like he gears up for the presidency, We've talked about
Speaker 1: all the time, like what's going on with the Santists,
Speaker 1: what's happening with like the right wing punditry machine. There
Speaker 1: are people like Maria Barter Romo who are going they're
Speaker 1: going hard for Trump. Still you know, like she's not
Speaker 1: she's not faltering at all. She's riding with Trump and
Speaker 1: she's doing a great job, like saying that Trump is
Speaker 1: doing a great job while also doing her best job
Speaker 1: for Trump. Want to like drag Biden's name through the mud.
Speaker 1: And I just want to play this clip where she
Speaker 1: had a doctor Ronnie. Remember the guy who was what
Speaker 1: was it like? He's like the and the be An angel.
Speaker 1: What was his nickname? He was like doctor feel good right,
Speaker 1: doctor feel good right? Hooked the Obama and Trump White House.
Speaker 1: But I think he gave people adderall and and ambien.
Speaker 1: Those were like his two things. He prescribed them to
Speaker 1: like government of specials. He he was handing them out,
Speaker 1: like hey man, you need one good pill concierge. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean if you're going to have a private plane,
Speaker 1: like of course I have a hill concierge. Like if
Speaker 1: you can't afford that, my White House physician, damn sure
Speaker 1: wouldn't be a medical doctor. It'll be like some scummy
Speaker 1: home I know from the valley. It's the dude that
Speaker 1: shows up at Eric Andre's birthday parties and just pictures
Speaker 1: everyone's good, right, And I'm like they're like, what's he
Speaker 1: Why does he always have that Crown royal bag with him?
Speaker 1: I'm like yeah, he got it all in there. I'm
Speaker 1: just telling you this the magic back and think you
Speaker 1: want anything man ship you didn't even know you needed. Okay,
Speaker 1: So let me play this clip where Maria Bardaromo is
Speaker 1: asking Dr. Ranny Jackson, who's actually also a congressman at
Speaker 1: this point, like what his take is with Biden? What's
Speaker 1: going on with him? Well, I mean, consman, there were
Speaker 1: signs that Joe Biden was declining during the campaign. I mean,
Speaker 1: let's face it, he stayed in the basement the whole
Speaker 1: time during during the campaign. Um so who knew what?
Speaker 1: When are they hiding this and and feeding him drugs
Speaker 1: to to to allow him to function? I know he
Speaker 1: goes home to Delaware a lot more than any other president.
Speaker 1: So I guess what did Obama know? What did Jill
Speaker 1: Biden know? And who's running the White House right now?
Speaker 1: And are they covering up for these mental issues so
Speaker 1: that she spent her time on she did a bonus,
Speaker 1: Obama is still the government just for good measure. But again,
Speaker 1: I think it really underscores like the projection that's happening
Speaker 1: between both sides of like, man, your mother, if you're
Speaker 1: candidate's sucking old dude, like, no, your motherfucking candidates old,
Speaker 1: so you're both sucking old. She calls him basement baby.
Speaker 1: That's like what you know got some columns used to
Speaker 1: call Solange before she found her own identity just they said,
Speaker 1: I didn't just stayed up in the basement, right, except
Speaker 1: that he's done just playing half of the town, so
Speaker 1: Lange did when she emerged on her own. But it is,
Speaker 1: it is like just a it's a wild thing that
Speaker 1: just continues because meanwhile, Joe Rogan on his podcast, he
Speaker 1: had Tom Sagura on and he's like Trump's a man baby,
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. This guy like he's past it or whatever.
Speaker 1: And then Tom Sagurl is like, well, do you know
Speaker 1: like he does like adderall all the time, and he
Speaker 1: like Joe Rogan is like no, He's like, oh yeah, dude,
Speaker 1: he's like they say he's jacked on adderall like all
Speaker 1: the time. It's like, I know some people worked on
Speaker 1: The Apprentice. They say, like it helps him read. That's
Speaker 1: why he does it because he's really bad with prompters.
Speaker 1: So he gets on the adderall and he can dial
Speaker 1: it in and they're like, no, fucking So meanwhile, you
Speaker 1: have that going on in the Joe Rogan sphere where
Speaker 1: they're going like, yeah, this dude is just he's smacked
Speaker 1: on adderall all the time. It's it's NonStop. At the moment,
Speaker 1: they're referring to a video where Trump is giving a
Speaker 1: speech and a small white chunk of something comes rocketing
Speaker 1: out of his nostril, and they're like, see, that's that's
Speaker 1: definitely a chunk of crush up atterall, and like it
Speaker 1: honestly could be anything, but the thing the detail that
Speaker 1: makes me think there's something to it is that he
Speaker 1: makes he tracks it with his eye as it is
Speaker 1: falling to the ground as he's giving the speech, like
Speaker 1: he's like watching the thing shoot out of his nose,
Speaker 1: Like so he's like aware of it and also like
Speaker 1: keyed up enough to like track a thing that just
Speaker 1: like yeah, it's just like yeah, I must watch. And
Speaker 1: it's not a booger, you don't think, I mean, it
Speaker 1: could be a bugger. It's just like he seems very
Speaker 1: laser focused. I think I get the crushed up booger,
Speaker 1: Like that's not just shooting out, that's like dangling and
Speaker 1: like causing up. That's you didn't you didn't chop Sa. Yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: because I mean I think the most compelling information is
Speaker 1: like those past accounts of him, like about how he
Speaker 1: doesn't drink, but they're like, but he liked those greenies
Speaker 1: the doctor would give him. Yeah. Yeah, he behaves like
Speaker 1: he behaves and is not on some substance. And it
Speaker 1: makes sense because like the adderal and meth amphetamine are
Speaker 1: fascist drugs, like they were invented by the Nazis, and
Speaker 1: we're like fueling the Nazis the whole time that they
Speaker 1: were rising up, and it it all tracks. The Nazis were,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, so much sise and like bugged out other
Speaker 1: fascists with his like tweaker talk. There's like an account
Speaker 1: of him talking Mussolini's ear off and he's like he's like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, dude, what I'm fucking like, I'm vibing
Speaker 1: with this, but not this many hours straight. Mussolini is
Speaker 1: the Fiona Apple and like where you know, it's like
Speaker 1: Paul Thomas Anderson and Quinn Tarantino or Hitler and she's
Speaker 1: just like, I can't do this ship anymore. I gotta
Speaker 1: I gotta cut thish. I'm a socialist man. I just
Speaker 1: figured it out. I can't be ready people, I mean,
Speaker 1: I need to get my life. Socials are smoking more
Speaker 1: weed or some shit. Damn sorry, just the other details
Speaker 1: that that a lot of people don't realize that they're
Speaker 1: like one of the big reasons that did the didaent
Speaker 1: invasion succeeded is because Hitler was like asleep for until
Speaker 1: like noon because and like everyone was like, oh, don't
Speaker 1: wake him up after like before, he just likes to
Speaker 1: wake up on his own, so they like refused to
Speaker 1: wake him up as the fucking invasion was happening. Uh,
Speaker 1: and he like slept until the late morning earlier is
Speaker 1: the fear up so late we must tell the fear
Speaker 1: what's happening. He's like, you, what was doing last night?
Speaker 1: Taking apart another motherfucker record player for fucking eight hours
Speaker 1: straight and looking at old fucking Nickelodeon pornographic stop motion videos.
Speaker 1: So this is all happening under the with the with
Speaker 1: the against the backdrop of watching like other sort of
Speaker 1: right wing pundits kind of takes sides. Now, some like
Speaker 1: Fox News is definitely they're in for Trump, like most
Speaker 1: of their main people, they're not questioning anything, while others
Speaker 1: are being a little more cryptic about like who they like.
Speaker 1: They're like, yeah, you know that, like Trump could be interesting.
Speaker 1: There also seemed to be other people, you know, and
Speaker 1: like for those like there's definitely like the people like
Speaker 1: the Mike Sernovitch is who I'm not going to say
Speaker 1: is the mainstream, but you know, they're clearly interacts with
Speaker 1: the mainstream, like he's like Trump's not fascist enough, and
Speaker 1: those people seem to like Ron de Santis more because
Speaker 1: they think he has more longevity or something like that.
Speaker 1: But what's interesting is whenever they bring up like Trump
Speaker 1: and Rhonda Santis, it's like people talking about like Michael
Speaker 1: Jordan and Kobe where they're like, yeah, yeah, m j
Speaker 1: the Goat, Yeah for sure, But you know, Cope's in
Speaker 1: the conversation too, Like they're like Ron de Santis, no
Speaker 1: one is going No one's tearing down Rhn de Santis.
Speaker 1: Everyone says, yeah, I like Trump, but they all say,
Speaker 1: Rhond de Santis, you've gotta he's got stuff too, He's
Speaker 1: got the goods too. So it's interesting how that the
Speaker 1: de Santis stuff gets louder. In Florida. De Santis is
Speaker 1: up twenty two points over Trump in a hypothetical head
Speaker 1: to head. So people of Florida seem to be like
Speaker 1: in De Santis more. But we'll see how the rest
Speaker 1: of the party falls in line. I mean, the best
Speaker 1: best case scenarios, they both run in in the primary.
Speaker 1: I do think, though they destroy him in in the primary. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean De Santis doesn't have like the same gifted gap. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and the base loves that. That's the thing. Like Trump
Speaker 1: is a showman. It's real, it's a fucked up show.
Speaker 1: It's it's a dark carnival. Yeah, I mean the best
Speaker 1: case scenario, though, Trump is like falling apart the whole
Speaker 1: time because he's having his Hitler on d Day morning
Speaker 1: invasion moment where he's like, you know, can't, I can't
Speaker 1: do it anymore because he's just been rerailing adderall for
Speaker 1: for too long. Have you guys seen the other two
Speaker 1: I've only seen the first season. You have to watch
Speaker 1: the second season. It's so, so, so good. But I
Speaker 1: know there's a there's an epic meltdown, and I wish
Speaker 1: Trump had that. I wish that would just happen to
Speaker 1: just truly fall apart at the seems right right. We'll see,
Speaker 1: we'll see. I mean, like you said, he's like life
Speaker 1: begins at eighty and I'm like, my man, it does not.
Speaker 1: But if you think it goes across country and in
Speaker 1: a pandemic where your base clearly doesn't give a funk
Speaker 1: about it, by all me is man, roll the fucking dice.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's It's all we can do is sit
Speaker 1: back and watch. What's the latest? Was herschel Walker. He's
Speaker 1: he's just still kind of straining it straight along. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna play something for you. Okay. So the former Heisman
Speaker 1: winner herschel Walker running for Senate in George against Raphael Warnock.
Speaker 1: It's a close race, they say, Like, you know, Warnock
Speaker 1: has like a lead, but it's within the margin of error.
Speaker 1: So far, all intents and purposes, they're tied. His campaign,
Speaker 1: herschel Walkers has been a NonStop tour day What the
Speaker 1: funk is this dude talking about? And he has regaled
Speaker 1: countless audiences and journalists with like NonStop fabrications. And I
Speaker 1: just just before I get into the latest one, I
Speaker 1: just want to underline a few. The first he said
Speaker 1: he owned like multiple chicken businesses, like processing facilities, like
Speaker 1: like you know, like he's in that poll free business,
Speaker 1: and it's like the largest minority owned chicken business, also
Speaker 1: the largest minority owned apparel company that he also owns
Speaker 1: that business. He's been running that business. But people are like, yo,
Speaker 1: they did a little like a cursory search, so like, sir,
Speaker 1: you have nothing, Like what do you mean And he
Speaker 1: said he said, oh, I didn't mean it like that
Speaker 1: when I said owned, I owned these businesses. I didn't
Speaker 1: mean it like in a technical sense. And people are like, oh,
Speaker 1: the definition of ownership the one where you don't actually
Speaker 1: own where you dominated in a call of duty deathmatch.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. Then he also said minority pooned. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like minority pooned business. Uh. Then he said he owned
Speaker 1: or then he said he graduated from the University of Georgia,
Speaker 1: where he was drafted into the league from he didn't.
Speaker 1: And then when they pressed in, like you didn't graduate
Speaker 1: from There's like, I never said I graduated from there.
Speaker 1: They're like, this is the tip of you saying you
Speaker 1: graduated from there, And he's like alternative facts. He's like,
Speaker 1: he's had a few children come out of the woodwork
Speaker 1: that the campaign was blindsided by. They're like, do you
Speaker 1: have other kids out of wedlock we don't know about
Speaker 1: and apparently he's been lying so much to even his
Speaker 1: own campaign. They don't know what to do with anything
Speaker 1: he says anymore. This is it from someone within his
Speaker 1: campaign quote, he's lied so much that we don't know
Speaker 1: what's true. We have zero trust in the candidate. And
Speaker 1: three people for this Daily Beast article they independently interviewed
Speaker 1: for like this story called him a pathological liar. Sounds
Speaker 1: like he's a great candidate. Then it sounds like he's
Speaker 1: prim like all of the psychological liar, narcissist, fantastic. This
Speaker 1: feels This feels like the combine and like the NBA
Speaker 1: or something where like somebody's like doing amazing like sprints
Speaker 1: or something like. This is just great politician thing where
Speaker 1: you're just like lying, telling clear lies and just doing
Speaker 1: it with a straight face. It's like this person got
Speaker 1: some talent. Yeah, they might be a really good, really
Speaker 1: promising politicians. The way he absolutely didn't flinch or give
Speaker 1: a funk in the face of contradictory evidence unbelievable. This
Speaker 1: guy's going number one in the draft. I just want
Speaker 1: to play you this latest one. Someone dug up a
Speaker 1: clip of him from two thousand nineteen where he he
Speaker 1: says he I guess basically he was a killer FBI agent,
Speaker 1: but then Jesus saved it. I don't care. Just listen
Speaker 1: to this. I've worked for the poor law enforcement. I
Speaker 1: don't know that either. Did I spent time at Chuantico
Speaker 1: to the f your training schools. You'all to know I
Speaker 1: was agent. I should, I wouldn't tell y'all that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't care. But anyway, I've been in the lawing
Speaker 1: ford for so I drabbed my gun. I said I
Speaker 1: would kill him hershall Walker one of hig I'm gonna
Speaker 1: kill him. I got into David one of my minute.
Speaker 1: I took off a one three, and I still remembered
Speaker 1: the force A horshe people in disrespecting you all the time,
Speaker 1: people always doing stuff to you. You've never done nothing
Speaker 1: to nobody, And all of a sudden the other voice
Speaker 1: of hers, your parents and rage as you're sticky know
Speaker 1: what he didn't Usally, I thought I was losing my mind.
Speaker 1: As I got closing close to where I was gonna
Speaker 1: meet in this guy, I started to pray. I said, Lord,
Speaker 1: I need some help right now. I said, I need
Speaker 1: you to help me. I say that I'm about to
Speaker 1: do something stupid right now. I need you to help
Speaker 1: me right now. I remember getting to this where I
Speaker 1: was going to meet him. Man, I got out of
Speaker 1: my car and I put my hand on my gun
Speaker 1: as I walk into this truck. Before I can see
Speaker 1: the guy, I saw the sign on the black of
Speaker 1: his truck that said, hunk if you love Jesus. And
Speaker 1: that's what calmed me down. All right, that was a
Speaker 1: nice story, right, alright? You know what he has His
Speaker 1: uncle baby Billy vibes so much, big uncle baby Billy.
Speaker 1: I mean, none of this happened, Okay, he has nothing
Speaker 1: to do with it. Honestly, Riveting, though I was, is
Speaker 1: a talented politician. That's is what I have learned here today.
Speaker 1: He is going to be a president president of something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we don't know what, but largest minority owned nation. Uh.
Speaker 1: He would be the president of Oh my god. His
Speaker 1: video where he's talking about the bad air and the
Speaker 1: good air that we keep making get try to be
Speaker 1: sending their bad air or what do you say about
Speaker 1: how Jesus had like multiple personalities or something and was
Speaker 1: like killing people. He has so many wild things. He
Speaker 1: says so but Jack, to your point, I'm like, Yo,
Speaker 1: I haven't heard someone talk ship like this. It's like
Speaker 1: my grandpa and his friends like that old black man
Speaker 1: swag where they go. You didn't know I was in
Speaker 1: the FBI, did you. I didn't tell you about that.
Speaker 1: That is some old head ship talking. Let me let
Speaker 1: me put you on something. So I had my hand
Speaker 1: on my pistol and I say, Lord, don't make me
Speaker 1: take this code dealer's life. And then he had a
Speaker 1: crucifix dangling from his rear view mirror. So I said,
Speaker 1: thank you Jesus, I'm gonna just buy this a ball
Speaker 1: with cash rather than robbing him. Like, what are is
Speaker 1: going on with him? I don't know what is happening?
Speaker 1: And I like that he somehow hit like the trifecta
Speaker 1: of like mentioning he's a heisman winner, that he's a
Speaker 1: law enforcement and also that he calls on Christ and
Speaker 1: ever whenever he is in the mood to take life,
Speaker 1: that's he's nailing it. So yeah, I mean the poles
Speaker 1: are you know they show warnock leading. But my god,
Speaker 1: this explains all the war Knock campaign messaging and donation
Speaker 1: requests I've been receiving I'm like, what is going on?
Speaker 1: I thought we were good, Georgia were okay. I mean
Speaker 1: people are definitely not all on board, but yeah, it's
Speaker 1: it's enough to make you sweat where people like I
Speaker 1: don't care that, you know. I like the idea of
Speaker 1: editor also being working with the FBI. I really want
Speaker 1: a little more context, like why did he want to
Speaker 1: kill this dude? He was going to kill someone because
Speaker 1: he was trained and he was in Quantico. He didn't
Speaker 1: tell you that, but anyways, he shouldn't be. That was
Speaker 1: in Quantico. It was me Prianka Chopra. You know that
Speaker 1: the mother motherfucker's Chopra Jonas now, but yeah, it was
Speaker 1: all a Quantico and like that's a TV show, sir,
Speaker 1: But yeah, I was there. I was confused for a second.
Speaker 1: I forgot about the show. And that's a deep cut
Speaker 1: from my Quantico friends out there and Quantico heads out there,
Speaker 1: they know that was for them, For the real que
Speaker 1: heads out there, you feel me? All right, let's take
Speaker 1: a quick break. We'll be right back, and we're or
Speaker 1: back and we every once in a while, we like
Speaker 1: to check into the research that's being done on what
Speaker 1: social media does for us and to us to us say,
Speaker 1: it's working for you if you can, if you can
Speaker 1: make it. That's what I always say about social media.
Speaker 1: It's working for you to take away your free will.
Speaker 1: But what what's this latest study saying. I mean, I
Speaker 1: think a lot of the main stream view or the
Speaker 1: view that we get a lot through like just sort
Speaker 1: of headlines, is like the toxic beauty standards and unrealistic
Speaker 1: like appearance, sort of like norms that are normalized. I
Speaker 1: loved it. I follow so many plastic surgeons on TikTok.
Speaker 1: It's just like, yes, make these bitches look like alien.
Speaker 1: It does look like its own ethnicity, which is wild.
Speaker 1: Straight up. They're creating a brand new race on Yeah,
Speaker 1: no matter what your actual ethnicity is, Like I can
Speaker 1: tell you from Planet Plastic. But you know, and we've
Speaker 1: seen this time and again the effect it has on
Speaker 1: young kids, especially young girls, and and and just young
Speaker 1: people in general that get bombarded with all this ship
Speaker 1: And you know, I think we all we all see
Speaker 1: that things like Instagram or TikTok, they can all be
Speaker 1: fun house mirrors where people just merely showing you this
Speaker 1: very manicured version of the reality they want to present
Speaker 1: to others without it necessarily being the most authentic. Well,
Speaker 1: there's a new study that is also showing that, aside
Speaker 1: from making you feel like shit about how you look,
Speaker 1: social media is making half of millennials and gen Z
Speaker 1: feel like shit about their financial situation. UM. These are
Speaker 1: just some of the top line findings from the survey
Speaker 1: that was done. It said nearly half of gen Z
Speaker 1: in millennials UH social media users feel negatively about their
Speaker 1: finances after seeing others post more than any other generation.
Speaker 1: More than six three and five of parents whose children
Speaker 1: are under eighteen and are on social media say it
Speaker 1: has contributed to their kids having an realistic expectation about money.
Speaker 1: Nearly half of social media users have made an impulse
Speaker 1: purchase of a product they saw on social media UH,
Speaker 1: and more than three five regret it because they also
Speaker 1: tie the impulse buying to like sort of the lifestyle
Speaker 1: ship they're they're seeing and then being like, oh, maybe
Speaker 1: if I buy this it gets me one closer to
Speaker 1: this thing. And then they also said nearly half of
Speaker 1: or forty six percent of gen Z and more than
Speaker 1: a third or percent of millennials makes social media posts
Speaker 1: intentionally to appear successful in the eyes of others. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: why wouldn't you post on social media if you weren't
Speaker 1: trying to appear successful? Because number one, hello, douse it.
Speaker 1: That's the whole point. It's trying to be real and
Speaker 1: bump people out. No, absolutely not. But this is kind
Speaker 1: of like the thing, right, Like I definitely went through
Speaker 1: this ten years ago, like I switched careers. I was
Speaker 1: trying to get into comedy. I'm like a millennial with
Speaker 1: like living at home with my mom, and I'm looking
Speaker 1: on Instagram and like I see kids my age or
Speaker 1: people might own and I say kids like comes in
Speaker 1: my mid twenties, but like like young adults my age.
Speaker 1: They got jobs, they got like new cars, they live
Speaker 1: in a nice apartment, and I'm like, where the funk
Speaker 1: am I doing wrong? Like also, though, real talk the
Speaker 1: people that are like we live in a house and
Speaker 1: it's huge and has three bedrooms and two baths, and
Speaker 1: we have all this land. It's like, but you don't
Speaker 1: live in l A. Right, that's a whole thing. You
Speaker 1: don't live in l A. And you don't live in
Speaker 1: New York. So but that mortgage is four a month. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I think like it just does this thing right,
Speaker 1: Like this is through you know, therapy and like a
Speaker 1: lot of self reflection, right, is like that comparative way
Speaker 1: of living, and like trying to you know, value or
Speaker 1: adjudicate your worth is so fucking violent and it's such
Speaker 1: an act of like aggression against yourself because you're not
Speaker 1: the thing that like, I feel like everybody has to
Speaker 1: take that first step to realize where everybody's fucking different.
Speaker 1: Everybody is different. Even though there's a ton of people
Speaker 1: and people may look different and like have the same interest,
Speaker 1: we all have different circumstances. We all moved through life
Speaker 1: in different ways, and we all end up We may
Speaker 1: end up in the same place, but we take vastly
Speaker 1: different paths there. And then to completely negate what's your
Speaker 1: experiences in service of being like, well, this person's path
Speaker 1: worked like that and it was very linear. Why is
Speaker 1: in mine? And using that to beat yourself up is
Speaker 1: fucked up? And I used to do that ship all
Speaker 1: the time. So I look at this and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I can cut one see how even more especially as
Speaker 1: we get older and the evidence of like the financial
Speaker 1: distress that our generations are under become clear, that this
Speaker 1: becomes like this new thing too. It's not just how
Speaker 1: you look, it's like, oh yeah, you fucking broke. Two.
Speaker 1: We're all in an echo chamber between social media impulse
Speaker 1: buys and then like mainstream media articles telling us that
Speaker 1: the impulse buys are the reason that our generation doesn't
Speaker 1: have shipped. But why are millennials buying diamonds? It's like
Speaker 1: they're buying too much avocado toes? Did you know that
Speaker 1: millennials killed the chain restaurant? It's like, which is it?
Speaker 1: Are we broke as fuck or were just trying to
Speaker 1: survive or we just spending money on dumb ship. It's
Speaker 1: also like the form of capitalism that we're in at
Speaker 1: this point is um you know, the reason like the
Speaker 1: they're massive companies that are buying all the houses up
Speaker 1: and like it's impossible for individuals too. Like really, going forward,
Speaker 1: it's going to be almost impossible for people to like
Speaker 1: own a family home straight up. My sister right now
Speaker 1: is like, you know, she lives in l a And
Speaker 1: she's worked really hard and my my family is helping her,
Speaker 1: but she's like trying to buy a house and literally
Speaker 1: anything that is even remotely affordable for her, you know,
Speaker 1: is like immediately scooped up by a flipper, and it's
Speaker 1: like these are not extravagant, you know what I mean
Speaker 1: talking about two bedroom, one bath, like a small very
Speaker 1: like a fixture rupper, anything that is remotely like reasonable
Speaker 1: for like a young person who just wants to start
Speaker 1: off like immediately just like pop up by the company
Speaker 1: that's going to flip it and just charge crazy amounts
Speaker 1: of money for it. It's like I have cash and
Speaker 1: I'll pay over Yeah, the people have Yeah. There's also
Speaker 1: like a Ponzi scheme happening where people spend money lie
Speaker 1: about what their lifestyle is too fund an unsustainable lifestyle
Speaker 1: that they're hoping then becomes sustainable by like them becoming
Speaker 1: an influencer and getting free ship and then like you know,
Speaker 1: growing it from there, which sometimes like very very rarely
Speaker 1: it works and you become a Kardashian. But like for
Speaker 1: the most part of it, that ship doesn't work, but
Speaker 1: it does fund that central lie that you know, when
Speaker 1: when one influencer or like want to be influencer goes bust,
Speaker 1: like there's a thousand other ones trying to like you know,
Speaker 1: they're to just come up right behind them, and we
Speaker 1: don't we don't like follow them all the way down,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, I They're was I feel like there
Speaker 1: were like a series of articles about how like aspiring
Speaker 1: influencers basically pretend to be influencers and use like the
Speaker 1: same hashtags as like real influencers that are getting sponsored content,
Speaker 1: you know, so that the brands think that they're on
Speaker 1: the same level. But it's like they're actually buying the product,
Speaker 1: not getting it gifted. It's just that's it' that's a
Speaker 1: real big loss leader, you know what I mean, that's
Speaker 1: your They're like, yeah, yeah, like I bought this three
Speaker 1: thousand dollar computer and pretended I got it for free.
Speaker 1: It's like, uh why, because then I get more followers,
Speaker 1: and then I might get this computer for free. It's like,
Speaker 1: but you already bought it. Yeah, I'll just put the
Speaker 1: other one. I think it's it again. It's just for
Speaker 1: young people too, like you're saying, it just sets off
Speaker 1: this like I gotta keep up with whatever, like the
Speaker 1: pace of culture right now. And if everybody looks like this,
Speaker 1: and if somehow everybody is you know, a impossible houses
Speaker 1: and cars and like flying for class and ship like
Speaker 1: completely does your head and you have no idea what's real.
Speaker 1: But more than that, I think the hard part it's
Speaker 1: for a young person to divorce themselves from that perceived
Speaker 1: reality like like this is how life's moving because it's not.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I like you even have like remember a
Speaker 1: little bow Wow posting about about to take off and
Speaker 1: he has that picture of the private jet and then
Speaker 1: someone's just straight up cottam and coach economy just on
Speaker 1: a on a Southwest flight Like uh, But I think
Speaker 1: a lot of that is, like you know, just with
Speaker 1: media right now, TikTok, Instagram, all of that. That's where
Speaker 1: like that's where we're getting like all of our celebrity news,
Speaker 1: our celebrity gossip, Like real people are becoming celebrities. It's
Speaker 1: you're getting quote unquote influenced by your peers versus the
Speaker 1: celebrities you see on TV. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, these people are relatable to me, and
Speaker 1: now they're the ones that are creating the demand for
Speaker 1: like these for this unsustainable lifestyle versus I think you know,
Speaker 1: in like the two thousands and the nineties, that was
Speaker 1: very much like UMTV and you know cebody tabloids. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you get and it's like the difference being like
Speaker 1: when I was sixteen, the only people I knew who
Speaker 1: were like doing ship big out of high school were
Speaker 1: like Kobe Bryant, Germaine O'Neill and maybe Lebron James, and
Speaker 1: like I was like, yo, those sixteen or like, those
Speaker 1: are the most lit sixteen year olds on earth kind
Speaker 1: of ship And I'm like and I was secure and knowing,
Speaker 1: like I don't know, yeah, and everybody just kind of
Speaker 1: goes to school or does whatever and just kind of
Speaker 1: figures it out. But with social media, like you have
Speaker 1: all these examples to be like I'm nine and I
Speaker 1: got fucking three billion dollars and the liquid fucking like,
Speaker 1: I'm liquid three billion. This is how I got there,
Speaker 1: And you have all these weird examples for people to
Speaker 1: sort of like latch onto that I think also like,
Speaker 1: because of the specificity of it, create more very specific
Speaker 1: expectations for somebody too. And I think that was potentially
Speaker 1: the benefit of not having as much, you know, not
Speaker 1: being inundated with influencer culture in my teen years, because
Speaker 1: it was like you you'd get it from like you're saying,
Speaker 1: like you'd have to watch B E T or MTV
Speaker 1: and looking like five different magazines, and that's how you
Speaker 1: ever engage with like like pop culture, whereas now it
Speaker 1: can hit your fucking everywhere and with hyper specificity. M hmm.
Speaker 1: Have you guys seen that guy on TikTok that basically
Speaker 1: shows you how to be like a swim lord. Yeah,
Speaker 1: or I've seen that, but you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: He's like building this insane like house with like multiple
Speaker 1: like hot tubs, and it's just like this is not real,
Speaker 1: Like this is insane, Like people believe this guy. Wait
Speaker 1: what So he's like a lifestyle influencer, but like the
Speaker 1: way he's funding his lifestyle is by being a swim lord.
Speaker 1: Basically he's like a real turn he owns multiple properties,
Speaker 1: has like income properties, but like it's just all very
Speaker 1: shady and weird. Like he's basically looking for like people
Speaker 1: who are about to get more closed on. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: go do your like local county website and look for
Speaker 1: distressed properties. It's like that kind of ship didn't show up.
Speaker 1: You make an offer a bed of blah blah blah,
Speaker 1: and now you're sucking slum lord and this is my lambeau.
Speaker 1: Ye that's like the pattern that's shown like the Lambeau
Speaker 1: is like this other thing that's now just become shorthand
Speaker 1: for like are you bonging? And do you have a Lambeau?
Speaker 1: And are you doing and how are you getting to Lambeau?
Speaker 1: Are you doing that? Because you're a twitch god gaming?
Speaker 1: Are you a landlord? Are you you know? Dancer? I
Speaker 1: don't know, Like there's all kinds of ways there, but
Speaker 1: I feel like it's it's completely robbed people of the
Speaker 1: idea that they're actually uniquely individual, And I think that's
Speaker 1: like they're really insidious part about all of it. How
Speaker 1: are you get to Lambeau? That is my question to
Speaker 1: everybody I meet. Yeah, that that's so interesting. The the
Speaker 1: idea that like so much of this ship is funded by,
Speaker 1: Like the Nobel Prize is named after a family that
Speaker 1: like made their fortune making T n T that like
Speaker 1: blew people up before. Yea, it's just like y'all feel
Speaker 1: bad about opioids, but that's like it feels so much
Speaker 1: like we there's a very dark system that we've put
Speaker 1: this social media sheen on top of, and like the
Speaker 1: social media sheen is like designed to lie to us
Speaker 1: and like put a put a fake version of reality
Speaker 1: out there. That Like on the one hand, it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's lying to make you think it's like prettier than
Speaker 1: it is, but it's also lying because we don't want
Speaker 1: to know what the reality is because is I mean, honestly,
Speaker 1: I do kind of love I love like um interior design,
Speaker 1: TikTok and ship like that. You know, I mean it's
Speaker 1: a fantasy. Am I ever going to do it? No? Sure,
Speaker 1: and absolutely not. We'll never pull the plug. My house
Speaker 1: will always look like I just moved in the will
Speaker 1: buy your house for cash signs on the signposts around
Speaker 1: l A like there. You know, they're just looking for
Speaker 1: people who are in a desperate enough way or in
Speaker 1: like drug addiction or you know, like just trying to
Speaker 1: like that. When they did the study of like billionaires,
Speaker 1: like the really really rich, like the people who succeeded
Speaker 1: the most capitalism in the United States over the past
Speaker 1: like forty years, it's always predators. It's always people who
Speaker 1: are praying on somebody who is in a worse position
Speaker 1: than them and then just hitting that button over and
Speaker 1: over and over again until they're you know, extremely wealthy
Speaker 1: like that. That's just how capitalism in the US worked.
Speaker 1: And then we tell ourselves a fancy pretty story on
Speaker 1: social media. But it's man, my company with three VHS tapes.
Speaker 1: It worked really hard. I didn't give up. I always
Speaker 1: believed in myself. I just only got like four hundred
Speaker 1: grand and like seed money from my grandpa. Okay, back up,
Speaker 1: I did it all on my own. What do you
Speaker 1: mean grandpa? Yeah, but it was my grandpa. So but
Speaker 1: they could I mean, the social media aspect of it
Speaker 1: all is like the those billionaires could write the like
Speaker 1: true story of how I did this, and it would
Speaker 1: be like I hired like ten really smart people. Here's
Speaker 1: a profile those really smart people. They made like a
Speaker 1: bunch of really great decisions for us. And then we
Speaker 1: found these businesses that were really struggling and just fucking
Speaker 1: rented the funk out of them and like a billion
Speaker 1: business transactions in a row. And uh, and nobody would
Speaker 1: buy that. And so like the publishing how even if
Speaker 1: you turned in the honest billionaires memoir to the publishing house,
Speaker 1: you wouldn't get it published, or you would and nobody
Speaker 1: would read it. So you get the Wolf of Wall
Speaker 1: Street version of business and no one it's like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's a fantasy. They weren't that crazy? They didn't really
Speaker 1: do all those things. Well, the reason the only reason
Speaker 1: we got to read the Wolf of Wall Street like
Speaker 1: version of it is because Martin Scorsese like told it
Speaker 1: as like a stylised tale where we got to like
Speaker 1: view it from inside the drug adult mind of this
Speaker 1: person who like thought they were, you know, could the
Speaker 1: Golden God. Yeah, it's like, yeah, I did a bunch
Speaker 1: of lutes. I can get out of my lambo or
Speaker 1: whatever you had and just fucking snails slug my way
Speaker 1: out of the car. It's not even just having a lambo.
Speaker 1: It's like having a lambo and not even being able
Speaker 1: to drive it, like like not having license. Like I
Speaker 1: have so much that I can just own the as
Speaker 1: a decorative piece. Yeah, exactly, because we we have again,
Speaker 1: like I think because social media too, like are like
Speaker 1: the you know language of status symbols and like semiotics
Speaker 1: and things are like lambeau equals this, uh ice grill
Speaker 1: equals this, Louis baton bag equals this, and like we
Speaker 1: have all this shorthand for like, well, if you accumulate
Speaker 1: these items, then by definition you are this person. But
Speaker 1: we have so much like I have for but in
Speaker 1: my youth, I chased after so many material things because
Speaker 1: it's like if I accumulate these things, then I will
Speaker 1: be successful because successful people have these things. And I
Speaker 1: completely had the process backwards. Have you guys seen Snowflake
Speaker 1: Mountain on Netflix. I watched the first two episodes and
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I don't know, yay, but like
Speaker 1: when they cried because they so I mean, the title
Speaker 1: is really stupid in my opinion, but these little brady
Speaker 1: ass gen zs like bringing all their like designer you know,
Speaker 1: they're their Louivi's, they're Gucci, they're whatever, all of that,
Speaker 1: and they get to this mountain, this desolate as like
Speaker 1: sad ass, dirty ass mountain, and the producers take all
Speaker 1: of their luggage and blow it up in front of them,
Speaker 1: and the actual tears that start falling down their faces.
Speaker 1: I could just eat that up like every day, all day,
Speaker 1: every day. But it feeds me that those tears fed me.
Speaker 1: But it is also really sad where it's like y'all
Speaker 1: are just like literally children, and you are so obsessed
Speaker 1: with this ship, like none of this means anything. This
Speaker 1: does not give you a personality. This is not like
Speaker 1: you like once you're stripped of that. Well, who are
Speaker 1: you right? I'm like, oh, I'm gonna get these sneakers
Speaker 1: because they just came out. And then I'm like, I
Speaker 1: have no car insurance or cell active cell phone this month.
Speaker 1: And then I'm like, whoops, but you're flying. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know what. Nobody looking this good on the bus. Wow,
Speaker 1: You're like, I'm gonna be the best looking to do
Speaker 1: it on this bus. I'm like, yeah, hello, and they're like,
