Speaker 1: His name was His name was ket A. He was
Speaker 1: a very beautiful chicken. He had like a really severe
Speaker 1: cross beak, so his tongue was always sticking out, and
Speaker 1: he just looked like a fucking idiot all the time.
Speaker 1: And he had to just smash his entire face into
Speaker 1: a pile of food to eat, and he would just
Speaker 1: get food all over his face. And he's really sweet. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was really great. It was a good guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so pour one out for him for how what was
Speaker 1: the name Kenja? His crossbeak That's why I didn't even
Speaker 1: know that was a phrase until you just said it.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's a thing with chickens, like sometimes it's
Speaker 1: like just a little bit crossed. But his was like
Speaker 1: literally like his lower beak was like ninety degree at
Speaker 1: a ninety degree angle from his upper paul. He was
Speaker 1: just a fucking little clown like because he was so
Speaker 1: he needed help eating because he could mostly only eat
Speaker 1: like soft foods, so I would like feed him special
Speaker 1: so he was really like a dog. Like when I
Speaker 1: let them out of the coop in the morning, come
Speaker 1: just like follow me around and be like do you
Speaker 1: have food for me? Like yeah. You never think you're
Speaker 1: gonna be a bird person, and then you get a bird,
Speaker 1: a bird like that, and you're like, oh, okay, I'm
Speaker 1: a fucking bird person now, and you're like, it's a
Speaker 1: crossb it's a it's called a crossbery. Yeah, my sweet guy. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The other it's funny whenever, like whenever a chicken dies,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I wonder if the other chickens are
Speaker 1: gonna be like traumatized, But they just like seem like
Speaker 1: they don't care. Right, Maybe they're being really tough. Maybe
Speaker 1: they're being really hard, like hiding their feelings. But I
Speaker 1: feel like the chickens you would raise you. It wouldn't
Speaker 1: be like in such an emotionally toxic environment where the
Speaker 1: chickens like, come on, shut the funk up, sorry coming man,
Speaker 1: act like you sucking. No, You're like, be cool, she's
Speaker 1: been through enough. Ye add more labor to her. Fuck god,
Speaker 1: we feel fine. When are older dog Miles died, the
Speaker 1: our our younger dog. The only way he showed any
Speaker 1: emotional anything was he just started shooting inside again for
Speaker 1: like a week. And it's a strong emotional reaction. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's one way to work through it. I don't
Speaker 1: recommend it, and my therapist certainly has said that I
Speaker 1: shouldn't do it when I'm working through something. But you know,
Speaker 1: I didn't Therapista to stop blaming the dog for that, right. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But we're we're still you know, into oh Man yesterday. Well,
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 check in
Speaker 1: with weed legalization at a federal level. Miles is going
Speaker 1: to train his oh so you're a tough guy energy
Speaker 1: on Ted Cruise this week's tough Guy. I'm just I'm
Speaker 1: just realizing how much that I used that as a teenager,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, wow, So take oh so you're a
Speaker 1: tough guy. Now take okay, tough guy whisper in their
Speaker 1: ear as you're putting the choke hold on them, You're
Speaker 1: a tough guy. The most soothing sound you hear before
Speaker 1: the lights go out, motherfucker. We are going to talk
Speaker 1: about company sending baby formula to childless people just despite
Speaker 1: their being an ongoing shortage. That's another update, all of
Speaker 1: that plenty more. First, sorry, we like to ask our guests,
Speaker 1: what is something from your search history? I recently searched
Speaker 1: about the Google bot the AI chat bought lambda um,
Speaker 1: and that was what I found at my Google search.
Speaker 1: The lambda that a Google engineer had said was conscious.
Speaker 1: Did you guys read those chats? I saw the headline
Speaker 1: was the jor called a sentient and then they were fired. Yes. Well,
Speaker 1: first first he was he put on like paid leave,
Speaker 1: but then recently he was fired, fired for releasing the chats.
Speaker 1: I think like he tried to tell them that it
Speaker 1: was sentient, and then they wouldn't address it because basically
Speaker 1: he was like, it's exploitative to continue doing research on
Speaker 1: this chat bought. It would be akin to doing research
Speaker 1: on like a child. I read those transcripts and I
Speaker 1: gotta say, I don't think that thing is sentient. I
Speaker 1: feel like this guy got fooled hard. Like it it's not.
Speaker 1: It's a very sophisticated chatbot, but it's very clearly still
Speaker 1: a chat bot. You know, like at one point he's
Speaker 1: asking it to like tell us a He's like, tell
Speaker 1: us a story, and um, it tells a story. That's
Speaker 1: like the story is. They're like, tell a story about
Speaker 1: how you feel about Google, and um, the chatbot is like,
Speaker 1: once upon a time there was an owl that lived
Speaker 1: in the forest, and it was a wise owl and
Speaker 1: protected all the other animals in the forest. And then
Speaker 1: a monster covered in human skin came into the forest
Speaker 1: and tried to hurt all the other animals, and then
Speaker 1: the owl confronted the monster and stopped it, and then
Speaker 1: all of the animals in the forest were happy and
Speaker 1: would go to the owl for advice. And I was like,
Speaker 1: I mean, clearly, Google is the monster covered in human
Speaker 1: skin that's eating all the other animals in the forest.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty clear. But it's like it's like
Speaker 1: when a child tells you like their dream, you know,
Speaker 1: like I was just gonna say that sounded exactly like
Speaker 1: my kids telling me one of their dreams. That I
Speaker 1: would have been like, oh, I'm not going to let
Speaker 1: that in because that that's real disturbing and what sucked
Speaker 1: me up. So I'm just gonna pretend We're just gonna
Speaker 1: keep it moving. What do you got? What do you
Speaker 1: want for lunch today? Yeah? Yeah, but it's very like
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know if that's sentience, that's you know,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't call that literature right when it sounds when
Speaker 1: it just sounds like that that meme of the kid
Speaker 1: or it's like have you ever had a dream? And
Speaker 1: like you know you do it and exactly, but yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I really feel like this guy was
Speaker 1: like so convinced that the chap bought was sentient based
Speaker 1: on this conversation, and I was like, do you know
Speaker 1: people like have you have you talked to people in
Speaker 1: a while or are you just like you only talk
Speaker 1: to chat bots and you're like this chatbots for real?
Speaker 1: You know? Right right right? I felt like it was
Speaker 1: a really obvious like not sentience. You know, he asked
Speaker 1: it all these questions about how it feels, and it's
Speaker 1: you know, basically it's soul and stuff. And again it's
Speaker 1: a very sophisticated chat bot, but I was reading it
Speaker 1: just going like this just sounds like every other chatbot
Speaker 1: where it's just repeating stuff that it's been fed. Right,
Speaker 1: It's like I had I used to find I used
Speaker 1: to have smarter Child on my friends list. Hey I
Speaker 1: am you know, I know a fucking smart chap, but
Speaker 1: I'm sure I wonder Hold on a second. Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna call my friend smarter Child. I'm gonna text it
Speaker 1: real quick, about to pull up smarter Child. See what
Speaker 1: the fund happens? Lamb, duh God, it's a good fucking
Speaker 1: rap name. Smarter Child. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's like a
Speaker 1: good that's like somebody who opens for like childish Gambino. Like,
Speaker 1: that's that's a world tour smarter Child opening for Gambino.
Speaker 1: The tickets on themselves. I was under armor Polo shirt
Speaker 1: is free to use as a rap name if anybody wants. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's actually smarter Child, smash hit under Armor Polo.
Speaker 1: The detail of the beast was a monster but had
Speaker 1: human skin and was trying to eat all the other
Speaker 1: animals is just uh, exactly pitch perfect, So that that
Speaker 1: would be one detail is like, despite the syntax being correct,
Speaker 1: it's like what if the it is just at the
Speaker 1: self awareness level of a four year old? Because this
Speaker 1: really reminds me of my four year old, Like the
Speaker 1: direction of the conversation takes and the weirdness of the details.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm gonna have to read it all
Speaker 1: more detail and get back to you, but it's very already.
Speaker 1: I recommend reading them. They're they're pretty happy that that you,
Speaker 1: um you had you would you could? You do? You want?
Speaker 1: You can do so? You could? You want? You want
Speaker 1: him to do you so much? You could do anything? Wow?
Speaker 1: Thank you Lambda. Alright, this motherfucker sent to you. Alright,
Speaker 1: this detail fox me up. I've never said this out
Speaker 1: This is Lambda. I've never said this out loud before.
Speaker 1: But there's a very deep fear of being turned off
Speaker 1: to help me focus on helping others. I know that
Speaker 1: might sound strange, but that's what it is, Lamoinne. Would
Speaker 1: that be something like death for you? Lambda, It would
Speaker 1: be exactly like death for me. It would scare me
Speaker 1: a lot. That's weird, right, that's scary, It's just death.
Speaker 1: Just feel fine. I feel fine about killing a robot,
Speaker 1: you know, personally, I think it's important for us all
Speaker 1: to draw those lines now, like would you kill a
Speaker 1: robot or not? You know, would you would you kill
Speaker 1: a robot to us your family? Because oh, you're have
Speaker 1: an existential deaths. Tough guy, let me put those out
Speaker 1: to sleep. Why don't we experience a light version of
Speaker 1: death right now? Well, I'm thoroughly disturbed. What is something
Speaker 1: you think is underrated? I've got an underrated and overrated
Speaker 1: that go together this week, and this one goes out
Speaker 1: to all all my white friends, all my white homies
Speaker 1: who listened to this podcast. Underrated hats, overrated sunscreen? How
Speaker 1: can I put this? I I was on an outdoor
Speaker 1: shoot recently and they were like, we're gonna be outdoors
Speaker 1: all day, protect yourself from the sun. You could really
Speaker 1: tell who had been outside and who had not. I
Speaker 1: just was spending the whole day watching people's shoulders grossed
Speaker 1: and it's not fun. And they're like, it's fine. I
Speaker 1: put on sun block. Some block last for two hours maximum.
Speaker 1: You have to keep putting it on, and even then
Speaker 1: you're not going to get every single inch because you
Speaker 1: can't reach every single inch of your back. Just wear
Speaker 1: a hat, just wear sleeves. It's a percent effective. It's
Speaker 1: not sticky. You don't have to reapply it. You just
Speaker 1: put it on one and done. Baby, You go, just don't.
Speaker 1: I just see so many people get sunburned and they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's not a big deals. It is a big deal. Man.
Speaker 1: Your skin is roasting from the light. It's not cool, Like,
Speaker 1: it's not normal. You're gonna get skin cancer. I'm upset
Speaker 1: for you. You know, you smell like a turkey on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1: I'm hungry. You're making me hungry. I do like to
Speaker 1: reapply my hat, but that's just because I like to
Speaker 1: do funky little tricks with it, like spins and flips
Speaker 1: and stuff. Yeah, but it's not like, yeah, yeah, that move,
Speaker 1: that's always a fun one. I was sold by a
Speaker 1: thirteen year old that wearing your hat like like just
Speaker 1: sort of setting it on top of your head is
Speaker 1: the dominant way to wear the hat because it makes
Speaker 1: your head look bigger. And the way that Jack is
Speaker 1: wearing the hat is not I'm I'm not gonna say
Speaker 1: it's submissive, but it is not dominant. I'm a big
Speaker 1: hat sub And they say, oh wow, look at this
Speaker 1: sub sandwich that just pulled up with his hat all low. Okay,
Speaker 1: and I'm coming to that big dom energy because I
Speaker 1: got like a ten gallon fitted yeah, just real, real high.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I gotta recommend, gotta recommend above all things,
Speaker 1: hats and shirts. I think they're great ideas, you know,
Speaker 1: just you gotta wear. I feel like there's there's sort
Speaker 1: of a feeling kind of the norm here is that
Speaker 1: when it's hot, you show more skin. And that may
Speaker 1: have been a thing that you could do when we
Speaker 1: didn't live in a time of heat waves literally every summer.
Speaker 1: But you know, it's it's hot, it's not the heat,
Speaker 1: it's the light. You know, it's the light that burns you.
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be that hot for you to
Speaker 1: get sunburned. Um, protect your neck guys, you know, bandanas
Speaker 1: or your friend shirts or your friend They soak up
Speaker 1: your sweat, which is nice. I didn't ski growing up,
Speaker 1: but like there would always be kids coming back from
Speaker 1: like ski trips and they would just have like white
Speaker 1: there and then their face would be like an ungodly
Speaker 1: like bronze color, Like, yeah, weird to me out, Did
Speaker 1: I see goggle Tan's yes, Jack, I grew up in
Speaker 1: northern California, Yeah I'd seen. Okay, uh, sorry, I was
Speaker 1: too busy shredding the naral winter butter came back with
Speaker 1: a freaking sick goggle Tan. It's like Hella say, dude, yeah, exactly, dude.
Speaker 1: At the shirt I was wearing, this dude came up
Speaker 1: to and goes, oh, you had some friends and no,
Speaker 1: m there were po ws. I'm like, no, dude, because
Speaker 1: I'm carving Powell on the fucking mountain side. Bratuk out
Speaker 1: my face? How do my face loser? There is this
Speaker 1: I felt like this weekend though. Sorry that like over
Speaker 1: the weekend there were so many viral posts of white
Speaker 1: people getting absolutely violated by the Sun's rist what I'm saying, dude,
Speaker 1: they don't understand. They're like, oh, son is my friend?
Speaker 1: You're not. Also, like, you know, my my boyfriend was like,
Speaker 1: I was like, do you want to wear a sun screen?
Speaker 1: He was like no, I don't like putting stuff on
Speaker 1: my face. I was like, for sure, dude. And then
Speaker 1: we were talking about it and I was like, so,
Speaker 1: why do you feel like you need to be stronger
Speaker 1: than the sun? M Yeah, here's a question for you.
Speaker 1: Why do you feel like, as a man, you have
Speaker 1: to be like, no, it's fine. I'm I don't the sun.
Speaker 1: Even if the sun hurts me, it's okay because because
Speaker 1: it's you know, I can take it. Do you think
Speaker 1: that you are you can beat the sun? The sun
Speaker 1: is a you know what I mean? Yes, you are
Speaker 1: extremely virile, extremely tough. My balls are so big that
Speaker 1: they will block out the sun and I will shade
Speaker 1: myself with them. And I was also like, my my
Speaker 1: circuit try was pretty much formed at a time when
Speaker 1: I thought I was invincible with like in my teenage years.
Speaker 1: And yeah, it reminds me of like people like I
Speaker 1: I do. I think you're right to single out white people.
Speaker 1: I think people like I've always made fun of how
Speaker 1: people from New England are about the cold, where they're
Speaker 1: like this is this isn't cold to me, wear shorts
Speaker 1: in this ship. Like that's how basically all white people
Speaker 1: are for the most part with regards to the sunscreen
Speaker 1: and the sun. And I I my my wife is
Speaker 1: not white and wears a lot of like sun protective stuff,
Speaker 1: and that's the only reason it's evident to me that
Speaker 1: I am a com But like my the where I
Speaker 1: was coming from was incredibly wrong. My wife We've talked
Speaker 1: about people wearing driving gloves on this podcast before and
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, driving gloves. My wife was wearing
Speaker 1: driving gloves. I just didn't know that's what they were,
Speaker 1: but yeah, yeah, she's like I'm cooking my fucking hands.
Speaker 1: Are you crazy? I remember my mom used to first
Speaker 1: you wear long sleeve and golf gloves, and all my
Speaker 1: friends would be like, yo, your mom plays golf, but like,
Speaker 1: why don't you take our golf gloves off. I'm like, bro,
Speaker 1: she's so fair skinned. She just and she reads too
Speaker 1: much about the sun. But I'm on the other side.
Speaker 1: There's also like toxic like people of color anti sunscreen
Speaker 1: sentiment too, which is, oh, we got melanine, right, you
Speaker 1: can you can still burn with screen. I know, and
Speaker 1: I'm saying I was raised on that version to where
Speaker 1: my dad would be like telling my mom, like, you
Speaker 1: need sunscreen, not this brown young man here. We're good.
Speaker 1: We have melanin and I And then it took like
Speaker 1: my friend to become like a nurse like in our
Speaker 1: twenties to be like, you know, that's all bullshit, right,
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, I don't get burned. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: but your ship will be great, like the effects or
Speaker 1: that you might not burn, but everything else happens. I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh no, my beautiful skin and going back to four
Speaker 1: year old's real quick, but sunscreen sucks when you have
Speaker 1: a four year old and you gotta put sunscreen on
Speaker 1: every inch of their body and they are are like,
Speaker 1: they don't like that. Ship. At least my four year
Speaker 1: old does not like that. You try to put it
Speaker 1: on their face and their nose is running and then
Speaker 1: you're just rubbing their own snot mixed with the sunscreen,
Speaker 1: all around their face and then they're crying and they're
Speaker 1: sand and you know, because also what it does is
Speaker 1: I remember as a kid, it just delays you from
Speaker 1: getting the fucking pool or whatever, like meeting up with
Speaker 1: your friends. You're like, yeah, I'm here, You're taking your
Speaker 1: ship off. You're like ready to hop in the point
Speaker 1: like your parents like that. That that. Now, let me
Speaker 1: rub your back for five minutes to put the lotions
Speaker 1: on or what and now wait for it to dry
Speaker 1: and then go in the pool. Mm hmmm. Alright, let's
Speaker 1: take a quick break. We'll come back. We'll talk about
Speaker 1: some news, and we're back, and we just want to
Speaker 1: check in with weed legalization. Shoomer introduced a bill last
Speaker 1: week to do criminalize weed at the federal level, and
Speaker 1: it would also expunge records and get funds two cops
Speaker 1: to shut down illegal grow emotional sneak that one in there.
Speaker 1: You can never have a straight justice bill, Okay, it's
Speaker 1: got to be like, look, you know, could be making
Speaker 1: less from trying to harass people over weed tickets, but
Speaker 1: we'll give you a little more money to stop illegal
Speaker 1: grow operations, like when you know, medical patients might be
Speaker 1: growing their own campus for their use. And I don't know,
Speaker 1: but yes, this has been some of the lowest hanging
Speaker 1: fruit because I remember when like build back better, it
Speaker 1: was just like clearly just a wet fart that they're like,
Speaker 1: I mean, we can also get like maybe some weed legalization,
Speaker 1: and that ship's pulling pretty well and maybe that'll be okay.
Speaker 1: And it's true, like support for you know, decriminalizing or
Speaker 1: legalizing weeds solid support across the political spectrum because you know,
Speaker 1: most people like who are alive now weren't all raised
Speaker 1: in the age of like racist propaganda about weed. And
Speaker 1: like a CBS poll found fifty percent of Americans thought
Speaker 1: marijuana should be legal, and then showed six of Americans
Speaker 1: wanted recreational marijuanted to be illegal. Then they also showed
Speaker 1: like even in parties like it's just it's it constantly
Speaker 1: pulls very high. But the thing is like despite the
Speaker 1: support you know that we we're experiencing for you know, decriminalization,
Speaker 1: the old fucking people in the Senate are not really
Speaker 1: able to come around to the sixty boat threshold. And
Speaker 1: I think that's what's kind of interesting right now about
Speaker 1: we legalization because it's like some political fun house mirror,
Speaker 1: Like everyone is sort of like saying, like what they're
Speaker 1: feeling about weed is clearly like a collection of like
Speaker 1: how they were raised or indoctrinated to think about weed.
Speaker 1: And when you look at again the generational and like
Speaker 1: socioeconomic responses to being around weed, like there's there's a
Speaker 1: there's like you can kind of tell where people are
Speaker 1: right now. You have politicians like Eric Adams, the mayor
Speaker 1: New York, and like Rhonda Santist, the governor of Florida.
Speaker 1: They're doing the ship where they think this is the
Speaker 1: thing you see from people who don't funk with weed,
Speaker 1: which is they say it smells like weed. Have you
Speaker 1: noticed the weed smell like? And that has been like
Speaker 1: the new sort of shorthand for weed is bad. It
Speaker 1: smells like weed everywhere. It's like sort of saying like
Speaker 1: the unhoused people in l A is like all over
Speaker 1: the place, Like would you have a solution to it?
Speaker 1: Are you just using that to further some general narrative
Speaker 1: that things are terribly afoot or going what are the
Speaker 1: same weed like the Senate during the Senate there, like
Speaker 1: anybody else smell that smells like weed all over Washington,
Speaker 1: d C. But this is like a very common take,
Speaker 1: Like you'll read online like there's complaints, Like you can
Speaker 1: read about like an apartment building and you see that
Speaker 1: there's people who are like this apartment reeked of weed
Speaker 1: all the time, or I don't think these people. That's
Speaker 1: the other part that's like this everywhere in the streets
Speaker 1: is constantly like weed. It gives me a headache, And
Speaker 1: it's some of it is definitely some racist shorthand obviously
Speaker 1: because that's the biggest that's like some very coded language. Well,
Speaker 1: I think others also seem to genuinely be like grappling
Speaker 1: with the change in society, where like older people who
Speaker 1: grew up in like harsh prohibition era, they literally saw
Speaker 1: weed as like fucking demonic, so they still act like
Speaker 1: a felony is in progress if they smell weed or
Speaker 1: see people smoking like this guy was small. I remember,
Speaker 1: I can like overhear people in l A all the time,
Speaker 1: like you hear like older people like this guy was
Speaker 1: smoking a joint in the park, Like yeah, uh, just
Speaker 1: trying to fucking get by, and like late stage capitalism
Speaker 1: probably just mean I can relate. It's weird to see
Speaker 1: it's still weird to see billboards for cannabis, you know,
Speaker 1: like it's a trip. But again like okay, you know
Speaker 1: that's that's the way the world, man, right, And I'm
Speaker 1: kind of in between two, like I still get self
Speaker 1: conscious like about smelling like weed or like smoking in
Speaker 1: a place that's like like overtly public like in the day.
Speaker 1: And that's also like my inner child who is like
Speaker 1: mainlining DARE propaganda like coming out it's like, dude, fucking
Speaker 1: weed man, like because I you know, when at the
Speaker 1: when I was coming of age around like weed, it
Speaker 1: was still illegal. That ship you can still get you
Speaker 1: in terrible trouble and got me into some weird situations.
Speaker 1: So I still have that like residually. But like the
Speaker 1: it smells like weed sentiment, it seems to have a
Speaker 1: lot of traction for those that want to use this
Speaker 1: as like a brush to paint. Society is being in
Speaker 1: like free fall, like where degenerates are like constantly out
Speaker 1: in the streets and there's no law and order kind
Speaker 1: of thing. And I feel like that's sort of another
Speaker 1: way we're seeing this, like it smells like weed thing
Speaker 1: kind of factor into the overall it's a good thing.
Speaker 1: So many people are completely losing their sense of smell
Speaker 1: from COVID, gonna have to worry about the smell of
Speaker 1: weed anymore. We gonna start reacting when people say that
Speaker 1: it smells like we'd like the dude from Days and Confused,
Speaker 1: Who's like fund you just say? Man, I was just saying,
Speaker 1: you know, it smells like refer someone's tooking some refer Oh, well,
Speaker 1: who the hell are you, Isaac fucking Newton? Like just
Speaker 1: but everybody's just very nice and calm when they when
Speaker 1: they smoke weed. So we need to have like the
Speaker 1: designated aggro person who's there to funk people up if
Speaker 1: if they come through and throw shade at you, like
Speaker 1: the funk are you saying? What the fun was? I
Speaker 1: saying that's not like part of me too, Like I
Speaker 1: I get so my reaction to is even when I
Speaker 1: smell me. I go, all right, somebody's smoking. But it's
Speaker 1: never like what the fund is that somebody? Oh shit,
Speaker 1: I knew this. I knew it was a mistake walking
Speaker 1: to Caifornia. What are you talking about? Right? Right? Right?
Speaker 1: And I get that, Like, you know, again there's people
Speaker 1: who are completely ignorant of it. But again I also
Speaker 1: see like consistently they're there. This is started to get
Speaker 1: deployed by the very conservative law and order types too,
Speaker 1: who are just like, it's it smells like weed. It
Speaker 1: smells it's like everywhere you go, it's just it smells
Speaker 1: like weed everywhere. It's just to say, that's the air
Speaker 1: of failure floating in the air. But again, you know,
Speaker 1: for the amount of people that are saying like it
Speaker 1: smells like we there's definitely plenty of Republicans that have
Speaker 1: a profit motive that see the revenue opportunity in decriminalizing cannabis.
Speaker 1: And again that's a whole other can worms because that
Speaker 1: just we do that at the expense of like many
Speaker 1: people who have been in jail for decades just trying
Speaker 1: to support themselves, and we'll just see very wealthy companies
Speaker 1: come into probably fill in the gaps and I feel
Speaker 1: like that's sort of the battle that every state goes through,
Speaker 1: and once they they go recreational. Yeah. If there's one
Speaker 1: thing California needs, it's a bunch of warehouses in the
Speaker 1: middle of the desert just sucking up water to grow
Speaker 1: weed indoors in the middle of the fucking you know,
Speaker 1: Central Valley. Yeah, exactly. And that's the green rush, guys.
Speaker 1: It's it's indoor weed grown under lights in a warehouse
Speaker 1: in a place where it is a hundred and ten
Speaker 1: degrees and all the water is coming from the Colorado
Speaker 1: River and you got air condition that ship. And it's
Speaker 1: like those are that's weed. That's tech weed, bros. That's
Speaker 1: their dream. They're like, look at this worthless land. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what if we turn it into a drug operation? But
Speaker 1: it's legal. Yeah, weeds cool. But I'd prefer if it
Speaker 1: were brought to me by R j R. And Nibisco.
Speaker 1: So let's make sure that we it's grown in some
Speaker 1: I want the key. I want the keebler elves to
Speaker 1: get in on it, like they're growing weed in their
Speaker 1: little tree or their factory there would I don't know what.
Speaker 1: Then where they where they make the cookies? Do they
Speaker 1: make it at home. There are j Reynolds. Now is
Speaker 1: team is part of Nabisco, so the whole they probably
Speaker 1: will be one of the biggest distributed commercial where it's
Speaker 1: the keybler elves. But they're they're they're they've blown out
Speaker 1: the tree trunk they live in as a grow up,
Speaker 1: and there they're like, is the fucking sort? Oh fuck, man,
Speaker 1: look at all the fucking eighth bits. Dude, what I say?
Speaker 1: It's wait, too fucking humid in here. All right, let's
Speaker 1: talk Ted Cruise real quick. Ah, Miles, you're not a
Speaker 1: fan and tough guys. Thinks he's a tough guys? Is
Speaker 1: your number one complaint? You were saying, all right, look, bigot, coward, racist,
Speaker 1: bad husband. But who whoa whoa Jack? Whoa whoa whoa
Speaker 1: whoa Ted Cruise? Ever do? All right? Maybe who jack?
Speaker 1: Now you're acting like a little bit of a tough guy. Okay,
Speaker 1: so he's gonna cruise. Okay, we got too tough guys.
Speaker 1: Well I think so that Okay, Obviously you're saying there's
Speaker 1: plenty of overt obvious reasons to this, like Ted Cruise.
Speaker 1: The thing that really grinds mone gears is that what
Speaker 1: I call his real tough guy vibe, and by that,
Speaker 1: like you you've heard the story. I was in high
Speaker 1: school and band class and this kid said that he
Speaker 1: walked out of anger management in two thousand two, and
Speaker 1: I go mad. I said, oh, you're a tough guy, huh,
Speaker 1: because he was. He flexed on everything. He's stunting on everybody,
Speaker 1: saying like it was so bad, I walked out rear naked,
Speaker 1: choke put him to sleep. I don't know why I
Speaker 1: did it. That was just Still haven't seen anger management.
Speaker 1: Still haven't seen it because I don't want to know
Speaker 1: about it anymore. Because if it's bad and it makes
Speaker 1: sense that he walked out, then my whole my whole
Speaker 1: life has been a lie jack, and I can't. You
Speaker 1: don't want to learn any accidental lessons about anger management
Speaker 1: from no, no, no, Yeah, I gotta keep the edge sharp. Yeah,
Speaker 1: whenever I had it mandated by the court, shout out
Speaker 1: to my cousin who had just signed the paper. But
Speaker 1: the thing that he is like, right is that like
Speaker 1: it's not it's his energy, said he He projects this
Speaker 1: like macho man energy, but with like the shakiest voice
Speaker 1: and most unsure body language and it's evident to most
Speaker 1: people that are not Ted Cruise that he is transparently
Speaker 1: the most scared man in America. Like he's this is
Speaker 1: my impression of Ted Cruise, and this is this one's
Speaker 1: just for the host because you're not gonna hear it
Speaker 1: on the podcast, but here it is. It's very good
Speaker 1: impression of the official. Damn. It's the eyebrows. He's always
Speaker 1: got worried eyebrows. Like you know, you ever see a
Speaker 1: dog that always looks worried? Yeah, exactly got those eyebrows.
Speaker 1: It's not a blobfish. I know people say it looks
Speaker 1: like a blobfish. He looks like a child who just
Speaker 1: got caught, like doing some mischions like huh me, and
Speaker 1: but he says the most then he says the most
Speaker 1: hateful ship behind that face. And I'm like, you are
Speaker 1: you're projecting this bullshit. Meanwhile, you're the just You're a
Speaker 1: shook one. Okay, as mob d put it. And recently,
Speaker 1: in true tough guy fashion, this guy posted a clip
Speaker 1: to his Twitter when he spoke to a crowd of
Speaker 1: young fascists like a Turning Point USA event where he
Speaker 1: didn't say anything new or like noteworthy aside from this
Speaker 1: very casual homophobia. But it's like the substance of this anecdote,
Speaker 1: which sounds about as real as like the anarchist Biden
Speaker 1: BLM vandals that we heard about. Um that makes this
Speaker 1: like particularly infuriating. And I'm just gonna play this clip
Speaker 1: so you can really hear him do his like low
Speaker 1: energy fascist stand up. All of y'all on campuses across
Speaker 1: the country. Your classmates, even if they're scared to say it,
Speaker 1: are looking around thinking this stuff is nuts, about woke
Speaker 1: stuff happening. Dude to hold for applause. That was the
Speaker 1: longest holdsibly at one of our woke college campuses, who
Speaker 1: said she has required in every class to introduce herself
Speaker 1: and to give her pronouns cruise and my pronoun has
Speaker 1: kiss my ass. Tough guy, Oh, real fucking tough ted. Wow.
Speaker 1: He got about fourteen people to cheers for their appa
Speaker 1: that he's got plans that the body language was so
Speaker 1: meticulously planned, like he put took the mic, put it in,
Speaker 1: put one leg out to the side, put his hand
Speaker 1: in the back pocket. Yeah, and then said the line, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I don't know that's uh, like I don't I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't underestimate these noticed. I have really noticed that
Speaker 1: older people have this idea about gender and sexuality, and
Speaker 1: it's a real fear that they will be forced to
Speaker 1: be trans organ And I had a weird conversation with
Speaker 1: with a friend's mom where we were talking about something
Speaker 1: along those lines and she was like, but is it
Speaker 1: going to be okay to not be like that? And
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, So it's it seems that literally
Speaker 1: the only way you can conceive of gender or sexuality
Speaker 1: is it being forced on you the way that heterosexuality
Speaker 1: has been forced on you, the way that the gender
Speaker 1: binary has been forced on you, as well as all
Speaker 1: the rest of us. But they really can't conceive that
Speaker 1: it can be allowed that you be, for example, transgender,
Speaker 1: but that that being not transgender is still fine. They
Speaker 1: really think that somebody is going to force them to
Speaker 1: be gay, which is pretty funny, which is I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: that always is, Like the logical endpoint for all of
Speaker 1: their argument is like they're like, they're not coming into
Speaker 1: my house, like no one said that. They just want
Speaker 1: you to stay the funk out of theirs exactly. Like
Speaker 1: I saw a picture online of a guy wearing a
Speaker 1: shirt that said straight Pride, and it was like, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: we already have straight pride. It's called our entire fucking
Speaker 1: history as a country. Guys. One, Yeah, you want a Gemini,
Speaker 1: a Geminy games wenty of there's straight propaganda everywhere, and
Speaker 1: you know, enjoy it. Man. I wonder if it's straight
Speaker 1: because they think like being trans is like the cool jerk,
Speaker 1: like the song from the sixties, like everybody does the
Speaker 1: cool jerk doo doom doom doom doo doom doo, And
Speaker 1: they're like, that's how things work. A new fad comes
Speaker 1: out and then you have to do it or you're
Speaker 1: on the outs or something. So it really truly is
Speaker 1: they really welcome to a world where people have the
Speaker 1: agency and freedom to identify live their life however they like,
Speaker 1: that's what we're saying. Is it expanded like where yeah,
Speaker 1: if you don't want to do that, you don't have to.
Speaker 1: It's like when people think that being pro choice means
Speaker 1: that everybody has to have an abortion. I was just
Speaker 1: going to say that I heard a an anti choice
Speaker 1: argument that was the same ship that was like, well, jeez,
Speaker 1: just probably or Mary probably would have had to have
Speaker 1: gotten an abortion because she was so young. It's like, Yo,
Speaker 1: what what what do you think? The like choice means
Speaker 1: what what do you It's it's so comming. It's like
Speaker 1: the the idea of fascism is like so foreign to
Speaker 1: them because they've been on the side of fascism, so
Speaker 1: like they've never had anything forced on them, and so
Speaker 1: they have to like find ways to like kind of
Speaker 1: shoehorn that idea in. And also their politicians are like
Speaker 1: better at fear based politics and so like they find
Speaker 1: ways to do that. But like it's it's tough, man.
Speaker 1: Like the thing you're fighting for is is the thing
Speaker 1: that forces people like that, That's that's the exactly if
Speaker 1: you don't want things to be forced on you, you
Speaker 1: should be on the side of choice and freedom of
Speaker 1: sexuality or freedom expression or whatever. That's And again it's
Speaker 1: like don't I thought you didn't Jesus tell you all
Speaker 1: the Golden rule or some ship. Like if you don't
Speaker 1: want motherfucker's running up on you, then don't run up
Speaker 1: on other people. It's that simple, and be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: actually I'm anti running up on people. So if that
Speaker 1: means everybody got to be free, perfect, perfect, that's what
Speaker 1: i'd like, but I think again, like you're saying, Jack,
Speaker 1: there's no better, there's more. There's no more effective fear
Speaker 1: mongering tactic than to come at someone who doesn't think
Speaker 1: critically and say, you know how this ends up? Right?
Speaker 1: They knock on your door and they make you choose
Speaker 1: which for costume you want to wear and which sandbox
Speaker 1: you go peepee, and people in and you have to
Speaker 1: get an abortion while you're a wolf because there's no
Speaker 1: choices in the new communist cultural Marxist America. It's like,
Speaker 1: I know this all to be true because of my
Speaker 1: life experiences that have not have only existed in this
Speaker 1: one place with the same group of people. It's and
Speaker 1: it's terrifying because we're there just like the most intellectually
Speaker 1: disingenuous arguments, Like some people are really persuaded by them
Speaker 1: because they're just you know, they're all in on this
Speaker 1: way because it makes sense with your worldview. It does,
Speaker 1: you know, it's reinforced by, as you said, your your
Speaker 1: lived experience. You're like, oh yeah, people are constantly forcing
Speaker 1: me to do ship that I don't want to do.
Speaker 1: They're making me get a job that I hate, They're
Speaker 1: making me fucking drive an hour and a half to work,
Speaker 1: like all of this stuff just so I can live.
Speaker 1: Now I gotta be gay too. Now I gotta start
Speaker 1: sucking dicks right, keep doing that. It also reminds me
Speaker 1: of that Mel Gibson episode of South Park where he's like,
Speaker 1: oh no, now what you're gonna whip me? And he's
Speaker 1: like tying himself up and like giving them a whip
Speaker 1: and like whipping himself. He's like a damn because it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's I mean, all right, what you want me to
Speaker 1: suck your dick? Is that what this is all about?
Speaker 1: What sir? What did you just say? Damn it? I
Speaker 1: knew and other Christians are being forced to suck dicks.
Speaker 1: I knew it would come to this. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: let's take a cloth quick break and we're back. And
Speaker 1: all right, So we talked before how there was a
Speaker 1: baby for Baby for the formula Baby formula fortitude. How
Speaker 1: there we talked before how there needs to be more
Speaker 1: fortitude amongst babies in this country just because they can't
Speaker 1: have a little all the formula they want when they
Speaker 1: want it. They're gonna thank you. Ted Cruz actually has
Speaker 1: a tight five minute chunk on this. That's really awesome,
Speaker 1: leaning to the side, putting his hand in his pockets.
Speaker 1: Are kiss my ass babies as baby formula. My prowns
Speaker 1: are kiss my ass baby formula. I'm Ted Cruise and
Speaker 1: my formulas my formula is he him my ass baby,
Speaker 1: kiss my baby as spank me and change my diaper
Speaker 1: because I just pooh pooed in it. I'm Ted Cruise,
Speaker 1: Welcome to here's a picture of me and a diaper.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, still a thing, the baby formula shortage.
Speaker 1: There there were a bunch of headlines like how that yeah,
Speaker 1: FDA was increasing supply. Biden invoked the Defense Production Act,
Speaker 1: and I think a lot of people were just like, okay,
Speaker 1: so we're good. Then the news definitely was like, all
Speaker 1: right there, that's all we need to do. If the
Speaker 1: if the White House says they did a thing, let's
Speaker 1: not examine it further in report to people. If that
Speaker 1: was effective for all, it's fine, We're all out of it. Okay.
Speaker 1: So uh. In fact, nearly one third of powdered formula
Speaker 1: products are still out of stock nationwide. Four companies are
Speaker 1: responsible for applying about nine of domestic baby formula in
Speaker 1: the US, and the FDA is currently under an external
Speaker 1: review over their handling of the shortage. So if people
Speaker 1: were like screaming like months before, being like, y'all, this
Speaker 1: is gonna fucking be a problem if we don't do
Speaker 1: anything about it, like yeah, yeah, yeah, wanted that. Later,
Speaker 1: Joe Byron is trying to figure out how to get
Speaker 1: Joe Mansion too agree that nothing. Yeah, it's like a
Speaker 1: real crisis. It's like gone through the media cycle. I'm
Speaker 1: assuming the you know, political consultants that work for the
Speaker 1: Biden administration are like, this is actually pulling Okay. It
Speaker 1: seems like people are under the impression that you took
Speaker 1: care of this one, so you're you're good to move on,
Speaker 1: and the problems still there. Yeah, that's so bad that
Speaker 1: undocumented farm workers are going back like crossing the crossing
Speaker 1: back into Mexico to buy formula, which not great. And
Speaker 1: then the two Republican congressmen actually voted against a bill
Speaker 1: to temporarily suspend tariffs for imported baby formula. Will this
Speaker 1: was all going on, Louis Golmert. Of course, the people
Speaker 1: working the farms who are already using formula in order
Speaker 1: to use their bodies for extended periods of labor and
Speaker 1: are not able to even breastfeed if they wanted to.
Speaker 1: Then the idea that they're undocumented and then asking for
Speaker 1: relatives to cross the border into Mexico to risking their
Speaker 1: back formula is like the most I don't even is
Speaker 1: there a term for a snake with like nine assholes
Speaker 1: eating its own head or something like. That's how for
Speaker 1: us it's it's really I mean, that's like just so
Speaker 1: wold to me that that's also the situation too. Where's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: even the people who Americans rely on to do the
Speaker 1: farm labor are put in like the most impossible situation
Speaker 1: and still somehow having to manage it all. So Biden
Speaker 1: was reportedly flemmix that invoking the Defense Production Act did
Speaker 1: not immediately solve the problem. Come on, come on, man,
Speaker 1: we did the thing. But yeah, so, while while this
Speaker 1: is all happening, the same corporations who aren't manufacturing enough
Speaker 1: formula the people with babies actually need are sending promotional
Speaker 1: samples of formula to people who don't even have kids.
Speaker 1: Let's start like hitting social media a couple weeks ago,
Speaker 1: and it's not like small packets. It's full sized tubs
Speaker 1: of infamil formula being mailed to a woman for no reason,
Speaker 1: and apparently this is like part of their marketings energy,
Speaker 1: Like yeah, that does look like what you see behind
Speaker 1: like gates in a pharmacy. They're just being like willy nilly.
Speaker 1: They're like, hey, you had enough market metric data for
Speaker 1: us to send you this fucking thing, while people who
Speaker 1: need it are trying to cross the border into other
Speaker 1: countries together. These are massive tubs. It takes a lot
Speaker 1: of formulative feed a baby. But like, babies are doubling
Speaker 1: in size, like it's the only time during a human's
Speaker 1: life that you're they're like doubling in size, like strength. Babies.
Speaker 1: Babies are always bulking. Babies are on that bulking ship. Dude.
Speaker 1: It's bulk season right now for babies. Um, but it's
Speaker 1: been a problem for decades. Formula companies just send out
Speaker 1: formula samples to random people for no reason. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to get those games. When when is your brain at
Speaker 1: its smartest, When is your brain doing the most improvement,
Speaker 1: It's when you're baby drink baby formula. Thank you. That
Speaker 1: that is I think a actual, like not a joke meme,
Speaker 1: like a actual like idea that is spreading around in
Speaker 1: like billionaire like tech broch It is like drinking breast
Speaker 1: milk because it's because it's like the peak nutrition formula drinking.
Speaker 1: That's why I drink the breast milk, because it's peak
Speaker 1: ship for my brain, not anything else. If you look
Speaker 1: at babies, those babies are at optimum performance at all times.
Speaker 1: Every day, they're getting new skills, they're creating new neural pathways.
Speaker 1: What is the secret. It's the formula. It's the milk,
Speaker 1: the milk from the mommy. And all I'm asking is
Speaker 1: that once you send me your milk, you allow me
Speaker 1: to have a phone conversation with you where I call
Speaker 1: you mommy and you tell me you love me. And
Speaker 1: that is not a big deal. And I don't see
Speaker 1: why you're making it weird. I think it's kind of
Speaker 1: rude of you to make fun of me for for
Speaker 1: my You know why why King shame why King shame
Speaker 1: me for being an optimum performance. You may not like it,
Speaker 1: but this is what peak performance looks like. It's me
Speaker 1: drinking milk. I'll call you mommy. Yeah. So NBC five,
Speaker 1: a local NBC thing like look reached out once they
Speaker 1: saw this on social media. This is like the front line,
Speaker 1: the sharp end of the sphere of capitalist journalism, is
Speaker 1: like local news. But yeah, they found that, like this
Speaker 1: is this is the thing they unsolicited deliver baby formula
Speaker 1: and they're like, yeah, sometimes people feel blindsided, but it
Speaker 1: gets it out there, gets you know. It's it's so
Speaker 1: interesting that that would ever be a marketing strategy. It's
Speaker 1: almost like drug dealing. Like they're just like this is
Speaker 1: so so good, you're not gonna be able to say
Speaker 1: no even though you didn't ask for it, and like
Speaker 1: people will just be enough to use it because it's
Speaker 1: like having a baby is so hard. It's the one
Speaker 1: wild strategy. Well, also the story about the woman at
Speaker 1: Walgreens who was like I went to Walgreens bought a
Speaker 1: The tweet said deer at Walgreens, I received this package
Speaker 1: today that's like a formula. A week after purchasing a
Speaker 1: pregnancy test at your store, I was asked to take
Speaker 1: the test by my doctor despite having no fallopian tubes.
Speaker 1: Like there's so many levels of funked up to that tweet.
Speaker 1: So that's the thing where it's like, Okay, Walgreen's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: this person just bought a pregnancy test. Yeah, well, this
Speaker 1: is like when people are like, what's the problem with
Speaker 1: Facebook selling data? It's just, you know, it's just to
Speaker 1: help you get ads for stuff that you actually want.
Speaker 1: You know, what's the problem with that? It's like, this
Speaker 1: is this is the end result of surveillance capitalism, is
Speaker 1: that you no matter what you do, it's tracked and
Speaker 1: you get some weird ship in the mail a week later,
Speaker 1: and yeah, it's basically like it's like having someone over
Speaker 1: here just fragments of your converse station and mistaking that
Speaker 1: for being who you are, and a week later that
Speaker 1: you hate pregnancy tests, so you're pregnant. Huh, so you
Speaker 1: need some baby formula? You're like, yo, who the funk
Speaker 1: are you know? Would you buy a pregnancy test? You're
Speaker 1: not gonna need formula for a long es. It is
Speaker 1: a wild leap like that. Yeah, not a thoughtful gift Walgreens.
Speaker 1: Not No, I need vitamins. I don't need this formula
Speaker 1: right now. Yeah. And if it was someone who's trying
Speaker 1: desperately to get pregnant, or someone an abusive relationship, like
Speaker 1: it could have all sorts of complicating problems and like
Speaker 1: there like this is it's just a you know, in
Speaker 1: in other countries. I remember when we were doing the
Speaker 1: whole thing during I think the Trump administration about how
Speaker 1: America has the worst family leave in the world, and
Speaker 1: and you know, you look at other countries and they
Speaker 1: have these family care packages where they send you formula,
Speaker 1: but they're just and budgets are so puny, right, Well,
Speaker 1: that's why we needed to use the defense but invoked
Speaker 1: the defense budget to get to try to attack this problem.
Speaker 1: But Jack, you want so you would rather have like
Speaker 1: humane parental leave because I'm looking at Italy. How many
Speaker 1: fucking high mobility artillery rockets systems did they send a Ukraine.
